0:10
Speaker 1: Well, live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee.
0:13
Speaker 1: It's America's favorite gun toting, bible clinging, deplorable American.
0:18
Speaker 2: That's us, That's.
0:22
Speaker 3: American.
0:25
Speaker 4: Todd starts and hello, everybody, Welcome to the Todd Sterns
0:31
Speaker 4: Radio Show. Great to have you with us today on
0:35
Speaker 4: what is a very busy Monday. It was a really
0:38
Speaker 4: crazy weekend. I know a lot of folks are trying
0:42
Speaker 4: to get to spring break wherever you might be around
0:46
Speaker 4: the nation. Wow, this situation at Houston, the airport in Houston,
0:52
Speaker 4: what is it Houston is at Lobby Airport there in
0:54
Speaker 4: Houston where people were literally backed up into the garage
0:59
Speaker 4: of the airport trying to get to their airplanes. And
1:04
Speaker 4: it was even worse in places like New Orleans and Atlanta,
1:09
Speaker 4: and a lot of people forgot as they were packing
1:12
Speaker 4: up and heading. I don't know where people go for
1:14
Speaker 4: Where do people go for spring break? I mean it
1:16
Speaker 4: used to be Panama City. I don't know if people
1:19
Speaker 4: still go down there. That's where we used to go
1:22
Speaker 4: back in the day. Or Myrtle Beach was a very
1:25
Speaker 4: popular place. But anyway, wherever people are going, they're not
1:29
Speaker 4: able to get there, or it's taking them several additional
1:33
Speaker 4: days to get there. And the reason why is people
1:35
Speaker 4: forgot that the Democrats shut down a good chunk of
1:39
Speaker 4: the Department of Homeland Security and it's been shut down,
1:42
Speaker 4: and the Democrats initially said, well, Trump's got a fire
1:45
Speaker 4: Christine Olme, and then we'll reopened, We'll reopen DHS. So
1:51
Speaker 4: Trump gave Christine Olm the heav HO and yeah, they're
1:55
Speaker 4: still keeping it shut down. I mean, they really want
1:58
Speaker 4: all you people out there to suffer and to feel
2:01
Speaker 4: the pain. So hopefully, hopefully we'll be able to bring
2:05
Speaker 4: you a little bit of humor and encouragement as you're
2:09
Speaker 4: standing in line there at the airport today in Atlanta
2:13
Speaker 4: or New Orleans or Houston, trying to get to where
2:16
Speaker 4: you're going. Jesus, what a mess. Then the other big
2:20
Speaker 4: story we've been following, and wow, this is a weird one.
2:26
Speaker 4: Over the weekend, there was there was a terrorist attack
2:31
Speaker 4: in New York City right outside of Gracie Mansion. And
2:34
Speaker 4: what's really interesting about this story is the reporting of
2:38
Speaker 4: the story. Now, a congressman out of Tennessee by the
2:42
Speaker 4: name of Andy Ogles, and we've had him on the
2:45
Speaker 4: program before Andy Ogles is now calling for the deportation
2:51
Speaker 4: of every single Muslim that lives in the United States
2:55
Speaker 4: of America. I mean, that's what he says needs to happen.
2:58
Speaker 4: And we'll get to a statement in just a monk,
3:01
Speaker 4: But it is clear to me and I want to well,
3:03
Speaker 4: let me back up here, let me back up and
3:06
Speaker 4: set the stage on what happened outside Gracie Mansion. Now,
3:09
Speaker 4: if you believe the media reports this was an attack
3:13
Speaker 4: on the Muslim mayor of New York City by a
3:16
Speaker 4: group of white supremacist or white nationalists, when in fact
3:21
Speaker 4: that was the exact opposite of what happened. As a
3:24
Speaker 4: matter of fact, you've got a bunch of right wing
3:28
Speaker 4: protesters and they're out there and they're all upset because
3:31
Speaker 4: of the Islamic takeover of New York City. And if
3:34
Speaker 4: you haven't seen the videos coming out of Times Square,
3:37
Speaker 4: it's unreal. Where you have it looks to be hundreds,
3:41
Speaker 4: if not thousands of Muslims and they've got their prayer
3:44
Speaker 4: rugs and they're literally taking over a Times Square to
3:48
Speaker 4: do their prayers. Now we've told you, and by the way,
3:51
Speaker 4: this is happening all over New York City in very
3:55
Speaker 4: public areas, and we told you, oh, what was it? Well,
4:01
Speaker 4: let's see here, doctor, Let's say, I'm trying to think
4:04
Speaker 4: Michael Yusef is who joined us a couple of weeks
4:08
Speaker 4: ago and was telling us that this is not a
4:10
Speaker 4: normal thing, that for a Muslim to conduct their prayers
4:15
Speaker 4: in a large gathering life, that in a public area
4:18
Speaker 4: is meant to be an insult and to send a message.
4:22
Speaker 4: And by the way, what is that message. I'll get
4:25
Speaker 4: to that in just a moment, because there's something much
4:28
Speaker 4: bigger going on here. So anyway, these guys, these New Yorkers,
4:32
Speaker 4: are all upset about this, so they decided to stage
4:34
Speaker 4: a big protest outside Gracie Mansion, which is where the
4:38
Speaker 4: New York City Mayor lives. And as they were marching,
4:43
Speaker 4: you had a group of I believe it was up
4:46
Speaker 4: to six. It may be more, don't hold me to that,
4:49
Speaker 4: but at least six Muslims decided to attack these peaceful protesters.
4:54
Speaker 4: And they were protesting peacefully. They were saying things that
4:59
Speaker 4: you you might find offensive, but it doesn't matter because
5:02
Speaker 4: it was a peaceful protest. So anyway, the Muslim mob
5:08
Speaker 4: they begin to attack these peaceful protesters literally hurling IEDs
5:15
Speaker 4: improvised explosive devices at the protesters. They were shouting a
5:22
Speaker 4: la akbar as they were doing that. And let's get
5:26
Speaker 4: real for just a moment. Everybody, if you're on let's say,
5:30
Speaker 4: a jetliner. If you're on a bus or a subway
5:34
Speaker 4: and somebody starts screaming a la acbar, what would you do?
5:40
Speaker 4: How long would it take for you to evacuate that bus,
5:44
Speaker 4: that plane, or that train car? Just curious. Somebody says
5:52
Speaker 4: Praise the Lord and everybody smiles. Someone says a la akbar.
5:56
Speaker 4: It's duck and cover. That's just the reality of it.
6:00
Speaker 4: I mean, you all know you may not want to
6:03
Speaker 4: say it, but you know you think it. We all do.
6:07
Speaker 4: So anyway, it turns out New York City Police Department
6:11
Speaker 4: and they're saying, yeah, this is terrorism here, this is
6:16
Speaker 4: the NYPD commissioner. Take a listen.
6:20
Speaker 3: I can confirm this morning that this is being investigated
6:23
Speaker 3: as an act of ISIS inspired terrorism. I can also
6:28
Speaker 3: provide some additional information, building on my remarks from Saturday evening.
6:32
Speaker 3: At that time, we were beginning to conduct preliminary analysis
6:36
Speaker 3: of two devices that were ignited and deployed earlier that day,
6:40
Speaker 3: one in a crossroad walk on East End Avenue and
6:43
Speaker 3: East eighty seventh Street. In the other on the west
6:46
Speaker 3: side of East End Avenue between East eighty six and
6:49
Speaker 3: East eighty seventh Streets. That testing was performed by the
6:52
Speaker 3: NYPD's bomb squad and FBI Special Agent bomb technicians in
6:58
Speaker 3: consultation with an FBI chemist.
7:03
Speaker 4: So there's no doubt in the minds of the NYPD
7:06
Speaker 4: what happened. This was this was a Muslim terrorist attack
7:11
Speaker 4: inspired by ISIS. So now you've got the Ugandan mayor,
7:16
Speaker 4: Comrade Zorin, and he holds a press conference, and here's
7:20
Speaker 4: how he describes what happened. Take a listen.
7:23
Speaker 5: This was a vile protest rooted in white supremacy, entitled
7:27
Speaker 5: stop the Islamic Takeover of New York City. I'm the
7:31
Speaker 5: first Muslim mayor of our city. Anti Muslim bigotry is
7:35
Speaker 5: nothing new to me, nor is it anything new for
7:37
Speaker 5: the one million or so Muslim New Yorkers who know
7:40
Speaker 5: this city as our home. While I found this protest appalling,
7:44
Speaker 5: I will not waiver in my belief that it should
7:46
Speaker 5: be allowed to happen. Ours is a free society. Where
7:50
Speaker 5: the right to peaceful protest is sacred. It does not
7:53
Speaker 5: belong only to those we agree with. It belongs to everyone.
7:57
Speaker 5: I will defend that right every day that I am
7:59
Speaker 5: mayor even when those protesting say things that I abhor.
8:03
Speaker 5: Let me also be clear about something else. New York
8:06
Speaker 5: City will never tolerate violence, whether from protests or counter protests.
8:12
Speaker 5: Many of the counter protesters met this display of bigotry
8:15
Speaker 5: peacefully with a vision of a city that is welcoming
8:18
Speaker 5: to all. But a few did not. Two men, Amir
8:23
Speaker 5: Balat and Ibrahim Kayumi, traveled from Pennsylvania and attempted to
8:27
Speaker 5: bring violence to New York City. They are suspected of
8:31
Speaker 5: coming here to commit an act of terrorism. There is
8:34
Speaker 5: video of these two individuals throwing two devices towards the protest.
8:38
Speaker 5: The police department has determined that these were improvised explosive
8:42
Speaker 5: devices made to injure, maim or worse. Thanks to the
8:47
Speaker 5: swift and decisive actions of NYPD officers at the scene,
8:50
Speaker 5: both men were immediately taken into custody and the devices
8:54
Speaker 5: they brought taken off of our streets.
8:57
Speaker 4: Now, that was the statement he released after the fact.
9:01
Speaker 4: When he initially refused to mention that this had anything
9:04
Speaker 4: to do with Islam, and why do you think that
9:08
Speaker 4: is Well, I'm going to tell you why, ladies and gentlemen,
9:11
Speaker 4: and Congressman Andy Ogles may have may have touched on
9:16
Speaker 4: something that we need to have a conversation about, because
9:20
Speaker 4: right now we are looking at the colonization of America
9:25
Speaker 4: by the Islamist You you may not like that, you
9:29
Speaker 4: may disagree with the assessment, but that's what's happening. They
9:33
Speaker 4: have been moved here in massive numbers. They are now
9:37
Speaker 4: having many, many, many children, and now we are watching
9:42
Speaker 4: mosques popping up all over the nation. It's it's really remarkable,
9:49
Speaker 4: ladies and gentlemen, when you you see what's what's been
9:52
Speaker 4: going on, when you see what's happening. So Congressman Ogles says, yeah,
9:56
Speaker 4: we've got to we've got to do something about this,
10:00
Speaker 4: and we've got to We've got to deport the Muslims
10:05
Speaker 4: living in America. I don't think that's honestly, I don't
10:08
Speaker 4: think that's possible. We can't even deport the illegal aliens
10:12
Speaker 4: that are in America. But Ogols says, I've had enough,
10:17
Speaker 4: he says, to port them all. This is our country.
10:19
Speaker 4: We get to decide who comes in, We get to
10:22
Speaker 4: decide who has to leave. Now, the reality here is
10:29
Speaker 4: this that Islam is just simply not compatible with the
10:34
Speaker 4: American way of life at all, at all. And it
10:39
Speaker 4: is the teachings of Islam run contrary to the teachings
10:44
Speaker 4: of the US Constitution and all of our founding documents.
10:49
Speaker 4: So the question is what do you do? Do you
10:52
Speaker 4: allow the Muslims to come in and again build the
10:55
Speaker 4: mosques and become the dominant religion in America? And if so,
11:01
Speaker 4: what happens at that point to our founding documents? What
11:05
Speaker 4: happens to the Christians? What happens to the Jews in America?
11:11
Speaker 4: And this is a conversation that has been needed at
11:14
Speaker 4: We've needed to have this conversation for a very very
11:17
Speaker 4: long time. But it's an uncomfortable situation. And it's an
11:22
Speaker 4: comfortable conversation because a lot of people feel like, well,
11:26
Speaker 4: we've got, you know, freedom of religion here, So we
11:28
Speaker 4: got to let people practice their religion, but do we
11:32
Speaker 4: have to allow that religion to dictate the way you
11:36
Speaker 4: live your life? You see, in Islam there is no
11:40
Speaker 4: freedom of choice. Well there is. You either convert or
11:44
Speaker 4: you die. So we watched this play out across the
11:49
Speaker 4: Middle East. We've seen what happened, and for example, Iran
11:52
Speaker 4: and how all that, how all that turned out. But
11:55
Speaker 4: Iran used to be the Paris of the Middle East,
11:59
Speaker 4: and did Beirut, beautiful cities. People used to go in
12:04
Speaker 4: a vacation there. It was an exclusive, well to do nation.
12:08
Speaker 4: People were beautiful and educated and cosmopolitan. And then the
12:13
Speaker 4: Islamis took over and well, you know, now it looks
12:16
Speaker 4: like some sort of a third world hell hole. I mean,
12:19
Speaker 4: what are you gonna say? So anyway, the just curious here,
12:23
Speaker 4: ladies and gentlemen. Do you have concerns about this? Have
12:26
Speaker 4: you noticed, by the way, the uptick in mosques that
12:30
Speaker 4: are being built around the country. You folks in Texas
12:33
Speaker 4: are getting inundated. And I'm just gonna say this, there
12:36
Speaker 4: is a very good chance Texas goes blue very quickly
12:39
Speaker 4: as a result of that. All right, our telephone number
12:41
Speaker 4: nine oh one two six zero five nine two six again,
12:45

13:57
Speaker 2: I've had enough.
14:00
Speaker 6: I've said it once, I'll say it again. Deport them all.
14:07
Speaker 6: This is our country. We get to decide who comes in,
14:12
Speaker 6: and we get to decide who has to leave, and
14:15
Speaker 6: I say deport them. All ninety that have come into
14:20
Speaker 6: this country are from third world countries, most of which
14:24
Speaker 6: are sucking resources from American citizens, burdening our cities. They
14:28
Speaker 6: do not be long here.
14:30
Speaker 2: All right.
14:31
Speaker 4: That is Tennessee Congressman Andy Ogles who is now calling
14:35
Speaker 4: for the deportation of all Muslims currently living in the
14:39
Speaker 4: United States of America. And again, when you look at
14:43
Speaker 4: what happened over the weekend, there was a flight where
14:46
Speaker 4: what was it, from Nashville to Fort Lauderdale, where some
14:52
Speaker 4: Muslim guy a beeper goes off and he starts chanting
14:56
Speaker 4: in Arabic and freaked everybody out. They had the plane
14:59
Speaker 4: had to make an emergency landing in Atlanta. We have
15:02
Speaker 4: yet to learn how all of that turned out. And
15:05
Speaker 4: of course the FBI and I don't know what's going
15:08
Speaker 4: on over there with cash Patel, but they have yet
15:11
Speaker 4: to categorize what happened in Austin, Texas a couple of
15:15
Speaker 4: weekends ago as an act of terrorism when this guy
15:19
Speaker 4: wearing a property of a LA T shirt and the
15:22
Speaker 4: Iranian Muslim flag, stormed Bufords, which was a popular bar
15:28
Speaker 4: near the university, killing a lot of people injuring a
15:31
Speaker 4: lot of people, and they're still not qualifying that as
15:34
Speaker 4: a domestic terrorist group. So it makes you wonder what
15:37
Speaker 4: exactly what exactly is going on over at FBI headquarters.
15:42
Speaker 4: I mean, in all honesty, nine oh one two six
15:45
Speaker 4: zero five nine two six hour telephone number. That's nine
15:48
Speaker 4: oh one two six zero five nine two six. By
15:52
Speaker 4: the way, Nick saban Is really did a terrific job.
15:57
Speaker 4: You know, they had the big sports roundtable on fry
16:00
Speaker 4: at the White House, trying to fix what's broken right
16:03
Speaker 4: now with college sports. Let's take a listen.
16:06
Speaker 7: Thank you, mister President, for the chance and the opportunity
16:09
Speaker 7: to be here to speak with you today. But I
16:11
Speaker 7: just want everybody to know that I'm just a football coach.
16:14
Speaker 7: I spent my life when we had the ball trying
16:17
Speaker 7: to get a first down, when they had the ball,
16:19
Speaker 7: trying to get off the field on third down. So
16:21
Speaker 7: this is an unlikely position for me to be in
16:24
Speaker 7: to speak to such a distinguished group of people. Thank you,
16:28
Speaker 7: But I come here today with a question, what are
16:33
Speaker 7: the guiding principles for the future of college athletics?
16:37
Speaker 8: All athletics.
16:38
Speaker 7: I'm talking about football, basketball, Olympic sports, revenue, non revenue,
16:42
Speaker 7: It doesn't matter. You know, My goal as a coach
16:46
Speaker 7: for my players, for our players, was to help them
16:49
Speaker 7: be more successful in life. That we would create an
16:51
Speaker 7: atmosphere and environment that would help them through personal development,
16:56
Speaker 7: academic support six hundred and sixty eight degrees in seventeen
16:59
Speaker 7: years at all of them, and help them develop career
17:02
Speaker 7: as a football player. That was our goal, so that
17:04
Speaker 7: they were creating value in life and we were preparing
17:07
Speaker 7: them for their future past athletics. So what happened, you know,
17:12
Speaker 7: in this current system that we have that became impossible
17:16
Speaker 7: to do because people, instead of making decisions about creating
17:22
Speaker 7: value for their future, they were making decisions about how
17:25
Speaker 7: much money could they make at whichever school they could
17:28
Speaker 7: go to or transfer to. So I think we have
17:32
Speaker 7: a challenge here today about the ramifications of this current
17:36
Speaker 7: system on how it helps players be successful in their
17:39
Speaker 7: future and how we can impact and create a system
17:45
Speaker 7: that will help and preserve the opportunity for student athletes
17:48
Speaker 7: to be able to have success in their future beyond athletics.
17:52
Speaker 7: So we need to develop an effective system of revenue sharing,
17:56
Speaker 7: authentic name, image and likeness. Authentic being you have marketing
18:00
Speaker 7: value which now we have collectives which just create opportunities,
18:04
Speaker 7: which has become pay for play eligibility issues where we
18:09
Speaker 7: have guys playing six, seven and eight years so you
18:12
Speaker 7: have twenty five and twenty six year old people playing
18:15
Speaker 7: against eighteen and nineteen year olds, which is not healthy
18:19
Speaker 7: transfer rules. We have over four thousand people in the portal.
18:23
Speaker 7: Fans don't like it, support groups don't like it. It's
18:27
Speaker 7: not really healthy for players and graduation. To transfer several
18:32
Speaker 7: times in your career, you really put yourself in a
18:36
Speaker 7: pickle in terms of your ability to graduate. So I
18:40
Speaker 7: think we need to come up with the system, and
18:42
Speaker 7: we obviously have to do it with the president's leadership
18:45
Speaker 7: and also with Congress probably whether it's anti trust legislation
18:50
Speaker 7: or whatever, it is, to allow student athletes in all sports,
18:53
Speaker 7: including women's and Olympic sports, to enhance their quality of
18:57
Speaker 7: life while going to college, but still provide opportunity to
19:01
Speaker 7: advance themselves beyond their athletic career, which is what the
19:05
Speaker 7: philosophy of college athletics and getting a college education has
19:10
Speaker 7: always been about. And how much does anybody talk about
19:13
Speaker 7: getting an education anymore? Nobody talks about it at all,
19:16
Speaker 7: which is the most important thing any of these student
19:19
Speaker 7: athletes can do in terms of enhancing their future.
19:22
Speaker 4: And he's absolutely right. He's absolutely correct there, and I
19:28
Speaker 4: really do hope they can figure this out. We have
19:30
Speaker 4: a solution, but we'll see how it plays out. Folks,
19:34
Speaker 4: if you're looking for a romantic comedy that's actually funny,
19:37
Speaker 4: uplifting and safe to enjoy with your family, well this
19:41
Speaker 4: is it. Angel Studios has done something special with Solo Medo,

20:30
Speaker 4: Visit angel dot com slash Starns dot com. Today, Dylan,
20:45
Speaker 4: I have a question for you. I think this answer
20:47
Speaker 4: to limitations has expired. When you were a kid, did
20:50
Speaker 4: you ever go rolling?
20:54
Speaker 2: Rolling? Rolling? And it's like a what does that mean? Rolling? Wait?
20:59
Speaker 4: You you really don't know.
21:00
Speaker 2: What rolling like on my stomach?
21:03
Speaker 4: And no, no, it's I mean, look the kids. Back
21:05
Speaker 4: in the day, this was how we used to have fun.
21:07
Speaker 4: We would collect money and say there was a teacher
21:10
Speaker 4: that we loved. Normally this was you do it to
21:13
Speaker 4: people that you love. But you go out and you
21:15
Speaker 4: buy massive rolls of toilet paper and then you go
21:19
Speaker 4: roll their house rolling rolling.
21:21
Speaker 2: I've never no one ever said like, let's go rolling
21:24
Speaker 2: and then I would know what that means.
21:25
Speaker 4: Oh, what do they call it?
21:26
Speaker 2: T the house? TP? The house?
21:30
Speaker 4: We call it rolling.
21:31
Speaker 2: I've done that, but not for people that I love. You.
21:34
Speaker 4: You know, By the way, the rule of thumb here
21:36
Speaker 4: is if you go rolling, don't buy the heavy you
21:39
Speaker 4: you don't want the cheap toilet paper because that gets you.
21:42
Speaker 2: Know, yeah, that's harder to clean it is harder to clean.
21:46
Speaker 4: So anyway, when we were when I was a kid,
21:49
Speaker 4: we had potato guns. With a potato gun, yes, okay.
21:53
Speaker 4: So we had a guy in our in our group,
21:56
Speaker 4: our youth group, and he was like an engineering he
21:59
Speaker 4: was going to major in an engineer. He was super smart
22:01
Speaker 4: and so he was he cramped it away that instead
22:05
Speaker 4: of shooting potato potatoes out of the potato gun, it
22:08
Speaker 4: shot rolls of toilet paper and it unraveled so you
22:12
Speaker 4: could literally there was one house, our youth pastor's house
22:16
Speaker 4: that we literally t peed by draping entire rolls of
22:20
Speaker 4: toilet paper over the entire from the front to the back.
22:23
Speaker 2: He was probably so confused how that got to where
22:27
Speaker 2: where it was.
22:28
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was. It was really a work of art.
22:31
Speaker 4: So it's just something and especially if you're in a
22:32
Speaker 4: small town, that's kind of what you do, right. Yeah,
22:36
Speaker 4: And and sometimes this is kind of funny. We did
22:38
Speaker 4: it with our Sunday school teachers once and they were
22:41
Speaker 4: determined to find out who did it. So it turns
22:43
Speaker 4: out that they were good. The ladies were good friends
22:46
Speaker 4: with a manager at the We had a Piggly Wiggly
22:48
Speaker 4: and went down to the Piggly Wiggly and said, we
22:51
Speaker 4: want to see the surveillance video.
22:53
Speaker 2: That's a really small town day. You have to go
22:56
Speaker 2: to the Piggly Wiggly. They know you, they know So
22:58
Speaker 2: egging is the back.
23:00
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, that's offensive.
23:01
Speaker 2: Yeah.
23:02
Speaker 4: Egging is like your house is or somebody got somebody
23:07
Speaker 4: got hayd once. That's where you that's rural. That is
23:12
Speaker 4: very country, and I it was not pleasant.
23:17
Speaker 2: What is like, do you roll the haybells onto the lawn?
23:19
Speaker 4: No, you you roll the hay onto the car. But
23:24
Speaker 4: you have to there has to be an adhesive and
23:27
Speaker 4: so what do you have plenty of in the country
23:29
Speaker 4: that will.
23:30
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, I'm picking up on this, yeah, picking up
23:33
Speaker 2: what you're stepping in exactly.
23:36
Speaker 4: So anyway, it's just kids goofing off, you know, having
23:39
Speaker 4: a good time and you never think about you never
23:41
Speaker 4: think about when something like that would go wrong. Right
23:45
Speaker 4: over the weekend, a horrifying story out of Gainesville, Georgia. Uh,
23:52
Speaker 4: this is the home of our great affiliate w t
23:54
Speaker 4: U n SO, A group of teenagers. These are all,
23:59
Speaker 4: you know, from what we understand, just solid salt of
24:02
Speaker 4: the earth, good kids, church going kids. And they had
24:07
Speaker 4: a teacher that they really loved, and they thought, you
24:11
Speaker 4: know what, we're going to go and roll his house. Now,
24:14
Speaker 4: the details here are changing rapidly, but here's what we
24:19
Speaker 4: know at this point. The guy's name is Jason Hughes.
24:23
Speaker 4: He's forty years old. He's the golf coach at North
24:26
Speaker 4: Hall High School. He is also a math teacher. So
24:30
Speaker 4: the kids show up and they're doing their tping. That's
24:35
Speaker 4: why I call it rolling. It's easy to say rolling.
24:38
Speaker 4: So they went rolling, and they were going to roll
24:40
Speaker 4: the guy's house. And apparently the guy knew about it.
24:43
Speaker 4: He knew that they were and he was looking forward
24:45
Speaker 4: to it, you know, because a lot of the times
24:47
Speaker 4: the you know, at least when we were growing up,
24:49
Speaker 4: everybody was in on it. It was just kind of
24:51
Speaker 4: like the thing to do. By the way, never light
24:54
Speaker 4: the toilet paper in the fall, don't light it in
24:58
Speaker 4: the trees. No, that can lead to problem.
25:01
Speaker 2: Thank you for clarifying that.
25:03
Speaker 4: This is a terrible story though. So according to the
25:07
Speaker 4: Hall County Sheriff's Department, it had I guess it had
25:11
Speaker 4: been raining, it was wet, so the kids are out
25:14
Speaker 4: there and of course then the teacher, mister Hughes comes
25:17
Speaker 4: running out and when he does, he slips and falls,
25:23
Speaker 4: and as the kids are leaving in the pickup truck,
25:25
Speaker 4: they run over the teacher and they kill him. He
25:31
Speaker 4: is dead. According to the police department, all the kids stayed,
25:39
Speaker 4: they tried to they called for help, They did everything
25:44
Speaker 4: they were supposed to do. It wasn't anything at least
25:47
Speaker 4: it certainly doesn't appear to be anything nefarious here. It
25:50
Speaker 4: was just a horrible, horrible tragedy. According to one of
25:57
Speaker 4: the family members. They believe it was a tragic accident
26:01
Speaker 4: that occurred when he slipped on the pavement and fell
26:03
Speaker 4: into the roadway as the kids were leaving. And now
26:09
Speaker 4: these kids are facing like felony charges. So eighteen year old.
26:13
Speaker 4: The eighteen year old is now facing felony charges first
26:16
Speaker 4: degree vehicular homicide and reckless driving. He also faces misdemeanor
26:22
Speaker 4: charges of criminal trespass and littering on private property. That
26:27
Speaker 4: would be the rolling aspect of all of this. The
26:30
Speaker 4: others all eighteen years old, guys and gals, and they
26:34
Speaker 4: were all charged with misdemeanor charges of criminal trespass littering
26:39
Speaker 4: on private property. And the police say that all of
26:42
Speaker 4: the teenagers stayed to help the teacher, and they were
26:45
Speaker 4: arrested at the scene. And this has gone national. This
26:51
Speaker 4: has become a national news story, and a lot of
26:54
Speaker 4: people are saying, yeah, throw the book at these kids.
26:57
Speaker 4: But that's not what the family is saying here. The
26:59
Speaker 4: family of mister Hughes, according to Fox five in Atlanta,
27:05
Speaker 4: they don't want the kids to face any charges here.
27:10
Speaker 4: It's you know, there are I guess there are times
27:13
Speaker 4: in life when you just have these horrible, horrible tragedies,
27:17
Speaker 4: and you know, these kids are going to have to
27:19
Speaker 4: live with what they did for the rest of their lives.
27:21
Speaker 4: I'm pretty darn certain they had no intention when they
27:25
Speaker 4: went to go roll the teacher's house that they would
27:28
Speaker 4: end up killing the poor guy. Mister Hughes later died
27:34
Speaker 4: at the area hospital. In a written message to media outlets,
27:40
Speaker 4: Ben Palmer, who identified himself as the brother of Hughes's
27:43
Speaker 4: wife and Hughes's brother in law, said the family believed
27:47
Speaker 4: some coverage has mischaracterized the events leading up to the tragedy.
27:52
Speaker 4: Mister Palmer says that Hughes had been aware the students
27:55
Speaker 4: were coming and was excited about the prank, waited outside
27:59
Speaker 4: hoping to catch them in the act. Palmer also said
28:04
Speaker 4: the family believes the incident was a tragic accident that occurred,
28:08
Speaker 4: and we shared that. Palmer also said that Hughes loved
28:13
Speaker 4: the students involved, and the family supports dropping charges against
28:18
Speaker 4: the students and does not want their lives permanently affected
28:22
Speaker 4: by the incident. Well, I have no doubt about that.
28:27
Speaker 4: They just all sound like good, decent people here that
28:31
Speaker 4: have been caught up in a terrible tragedy. You folks
28:34
Speaker 4: there in Gainesville, this seems to be the talk of
28:37
Speaker 4: the town. The family releasing a statement here, we are
28:40
Speaker 4: thankful for the outpouring of prayers and support as we
28:43
Speaker 4: grieve the loss of Jason. We asked that you continue
28:46
Speaker 4: to pray for our family and also for the students
28:49
Speaker 4: involved in the accident along with their families. Please join
28:53
Speaker 4: us in extending grace and mercy to them as Christ
28:57
Speaker 4: has done for us. And yet there are are some
29:00
Speaker 4: out there who are saying, these kids auto face, they
29:03
Speaker 4: auto face the pendle here, there's a price to pay.
29:09
Speaker 4: So I'm curious, what do you think? What do you
29:10
Speaker 4: think on a hamp in here to these these kids
29:13
Speaker 4: nine oh one two six zero five nine two six
29:16
Speaker 4: are number. That's nine oh one two six zero five
29:19
Speaker 4: nine two six. You know what is interesting, Dylan, When
29:21
Speaker 4: you're a young kid, you don't really think of the consequences.
29:25
Speaker 4: You're doing stupid. What is it though?
29:27
Speaker 8: What?
29:28
Speaker 4: What's the old MTV show Jackass? Remember that?
29:31
Speaker 8: Oh?
29:31
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, where they were doing all these these you know,
29:34
Speaker 4: stunts that could get you killed or maimed.
29:37
Speaker 2: Yeah, when you're young, you think you're invincible because you
29:40
Speaker 2: don't you're not faced with death at all, like unless
29:43
Speaker 2: it's like, you know, your grandparents are some you know,
29:45
Speaker 2: crazy incidents, so you don't think about that stuff.
29:48
Speaker 4: Ever, No, you don't. And here in Memphis cent ale
29:51
Speaker 4: of the we have you seen the people they do
29:53
Speaker 4: what do they call them? The donuts in the parking
29:55
Speaker 4: line and they're hanging out the windows And there have
29:57
Speaker 4: been a couple of times where the kids have just
29:59
Speaker 4: you have been ejected from the vehicles.
30:02
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then worst things happen after that they get
30:05
Speaker 2: the car's still going.
30:06
Speaker 4: Yeah. Wow, I'm you know, it's I don't know, I'm
30:10
Speaker 4: with the family on this. It just seems like everybody
30:12
Speaker 4: was in on it. Everybody knew what was going to happen. Everybody, well,
30:15
Speaker 4: they knew there was going to be a rolling incident,
30:18
Speaker 4: and it was just a terrible, terrible tragedy. But we
30:22
Speaker 4: shall see how all of this plays out. But wow,
30:26
Speaker 4: what a what a what a thing? What a thing?
30:28
Speaker 4: Ladies in sull of a North Hall High School there
30:33
Speaker 4: in Hall County, Georgia. All right, nine oh one two
30:36
Speaker 4: six zero five nine two six is our telephone number.
30:39
Speaker 4: That's nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
30:43
Speaker 4: I want to give you an update on social security here, folks.

30:55
Speaker 4: use some simple strategy zone to boost benefits by as
30:59
Speaker 4: much as a hundred and eighty eight thousand dollars over
31:02
Speaker 4: a lifetime. Social security expert Michael Allen says there are
31:06
Speaker 4: five key strategies, and we want to give you access
31:09
Speaker 4: to those five key strategies. Newsmax calls the report your

31:55
Speaker 9: Mdonmie trying to change the face of New York and
31:58
Speaker 9: destroy it, he also comes out and says, I get
32:02
Speaker 9: praise to the New York Police Department for what they
32:06
Speaker 9: did with these two bombers, when in the same breath
32:08
Speaker 9: he wants to defund them and get rid of them.
32:12
Speaker 9: He's just he's just two face. There's no way around it.
32:16

32:53
Speaker 4: want to go back to what's happening over at the airports.
32:58
Speaker 4: It is just in sanity. Take a list of to
33:01
Speaker 4: cut number seven please this morning.
33:04
Speaker 10: As spring break travel ramps up, chaos at multiple US airports,
33:09
Speaker 10: travelers facing hours long delays during this partial government shutdown.
33:14
Speaker 10: Funding for the Homeland Security Department, which includes the TSA,
33:17
Speaker 10: expired last month, meaning TSA officers for the second time
33:22
Speaker 10: in six months, are being forced to work without pay,
33:25
Speaker 10: prompting more agents to call out sick. That's causing delays
33:29
Speaker 10: of up to three hours in security lines, including here
33:33
Speaker 10: in Houston.
33:34
Speaker 4: We got here at ten am.
33:35
Speaker 2: My flight was departing at one point fifty and we're
33:37
Speaker 2: not going to make that here.
33:38
Speaker 6: The guy said to me, Heads up, it's a mess
33:40
Speaker 6: down there, man. He was right.
33:42
Speaker 10: In New Orleans, lines stretched through multiple floors and into
33:46
Speaker 10: the parking garage. The disruptions come as airlines brace for
33:49
Speaker 10: a four percent increase in spring break travelers compared to
33:52
Speaker 10: last year. That's nearly three million passengers expected each day.
33:58
Speaker 4: Wow is insane, and it's already difficult getting through those
34:03
Speaker 4: TSA lines on a normal day. I cannot even begin
34:07
Speaker 4: to imagine. I was supposed to be in Nashville later
34:11
Speaker 4: this week and I thought, you know what, I'm just
34:13
Speaker 4: gonna take the little puddle jumper. It's you know, it
34:16
Speaker 4: won't take long at all. And I was checking in,
34:20
Speaker 4: I was just checking flights and Dylan, they were saying,
34:22
Speaker 4: please allow yourself three to four hours, and I'm thinking
34:26
Speaker 4: I can drive to Nashville faster. It's only like a
34:29
Speaker 4: twenty minute flight, you know, from Memphis to Nashville.
34:33
Speaker 2: Yes, seriously, that's that's a long time to prepare.
34:36
Speaker 4: It's insane, just insane, exactly. And then I always get
34:42
Speaker 4: stuck behind, you know, the people that have the baby strollers,
34:45
Speaker 4: and you know, they're tried to they have seventeen items
34:48
Speaker 4: that they want to carry onto the airplane, and the
34:51
Speaker 4: poor TSA guys are like, ma'am, ma'am, you can't do that, ma'am,
34:56
Speaker 4: you can't do that. So I saw somebody came with
34:59
Speaker 4: a goldfish and they didn't want to. Yeah, but they
35:02
Speaker 4: weren't allowed to carry the goldfish on because of the water.
35:06
Speaker 2: Well that makes sense, but maybe if it was a
35:07
Speaker 2: support goldfish, you know.
35:10
Speaker 4: An emotional support. Yeah, emotional support.
35:14
Speaker 2: Fish, just take it out of the water. That's our country.
35:17
Speaker 4: Our country is doomed. Doomed. Uh nine oh one two
35:21
Speaker 4: six zero five nine two six. You know, I guarantee
35:24
Speaker 4: you people are changing plans right now, and I don't
35:26
Speaker 4: blame you now that we've got this proliferation of BUCkies
35:31
Speaker 4: all over America. By the way, have you noticed how
35:33
Speaker 4: quickly that's kind of like fading away?
35:35
Speaker 11: Now?
35:35
Speaker 4: I don't does it still hit the bizazz?
35:38
Speaker 2: I think it does. BUCkies is going to be that,
35:41
Speaker 2: you know, that place that never fails you no matter
35:44
Speaker 2: when you need.
35:45
Speaker 4: It'll be like the McDonald's of you know, interstate gas stations. Yeah, yeah,
35:50
Speaker 4: I don't know.
35:50
Speaker 2: If they keep making more, I mean, it's never going
35:52
Speaker 2: to be a bad thing.
35:53
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, fair enough, fair enough, so any will so well.
35:56
Speaker 4: So all that to say, I mean, you've got enough
35:58
Speaker 4: BUCkies out there, so if you are going to travel,
36:00
Speaker 4: at least you'll be able to, you know, stomp and
36:02
Speaker 4: grab some brisket and you know, enjoy a clean bathroom,
36:06
Speaker 4: which you cannot do on an airplane. By the way, Oh,
36:08
Speaker 4: Southwest Airlines, I knew I forgot to share this with you.
36:12
Speaker 4: So Southwest Airlines is making headlines. Apparently they changed all
36:18
Speaker 4: of their the way you can board Southwest. I fly
36:22
Speaker 4: Delta mostly actually about ninety nine percent of the time,
36:26
Speaker 4: so I haven't flown Southwest in probably twenty years. But
36:31
Speaker 4: apparently you no longer it's used to what first come,
36:35
Speaker 4: first serve? Is that the way it used to be,
36:37
Speaker 4: and now it's not. Now you have like the and
36:40
Speaker 4: it doesn't matter if that and hear me on this,
36:42
Speaker 4: and this is the complaint. Everybody has like an assigned seat,
36:45
Speaker 4: so it doesn't matter if like half the plane is empty.
36:49
Speaker 4: If all three people on your row have that assigned seat,
36:52
Speaker 4: you've got to sit in that seat. And the flight
36:54
Speaker 4: attendants are somewhat hittleresque and they are not allowing passengers
36:59
Speaker 4: to like spread out. It makes no sense whatsoever. I mean,
37:03
Speaker 4: it's not like, you know, Southwest is the it's not
37:05
Speaker 4: the Ritz Carlton of the air. It's sort of like
37:08
Speaker 4: the Motel six of the air. So I'm not sure
37:11
Speaker 4: why they're getting all high and mighty. No I'm not no,
37:16
Speaker 4: I'm not attacking Southwest. I'm just saying, comparatively.
37:20
Speaker 2: Speaking, quality of service.
37:23
Speaker 4: Do they have first class. I don't think they do.
37:28
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, I'm just asking good question. So anyway,
37:32
Speaker 4: here's the here's the issue. So now Southwest is announcing
37:38
Speaker 4: that they're only going to do deluxe cleaning on the
37:42
Speaker 4: premium seats. So if you're in whatever coaches on the Southwest,
37:48
Speaker 4: you're going to have a filthy seat that they will
37:51
Speaker 4: not be cleaning your seat. Again, this is all coming
37:55
Speaker 4: from Fox News. The Dallas based airline considering bringing in
37:59
Speaker 4: cab been cleaners between flights to clean only the premium
38:03
Speaker 4: extra leg room seat areas of the aircraft. Coach cabins
38:08
Speaker 4: will not receive the same treatment. That's kind of disgusting.
38:13
Speaker 2: Is that what they call first class is that premium.
38:16
Speaker 4: I premium may be their version of first.
38:19
Speaker 2: Class, and it's just a little bit extra leg room,
38:21
Speaker 2: that's about it. I don't know, I've never flown it. Oh,
38:23
Speaker 2: come at me.
38:24
Speaker 4: But but the other but the coach is gonna be filthy.
38:27
Speaker 4: That's the concern. You're gonna be sitting in somebody's filth.
38:31
Speaker 4: And I'm sorry, but when you you've seen how some
38:34
Speaker 4: of these people dress, I'm not sure if you want
38:36
Speaker 4: to be sitting in a seat that was occupied by
38:38
Speaker 4: a woman's dirty fong. Sorry for that visual, but I'm
38:45
Speaker 4: just saying that's nasty. All that to say, if you're
38:50
Speaker 4: gonna be flying Southwest, bring your own wet wipes and
38:52
Speaker 4: I'd hose down that seat before buckle it up. All right,
38:56
Speaker 4: gotta take a break. Care everybody. Nine oh one two
38:59
Speaker 4: six zero nine two six. That's nine oh one two
39:02
Speaker 4: six zero five nine two six. This is The Todd
39:05
Speaker 4: Starn Show.
39:22
Speaker 1: Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's
39:26
Speaker 1: common sense, conservative commentary from Todd stars Samaritan.
39:38
Speaker 4: All Right, Hello everybody, it is the Tuesday edition. No,
39:42
Speaker 4: it's still Monday.
39:44
Speaker 5: Hello.
39:45
Speaker 4: Can we just start over again, Let's just rewind the tape. Hello, everybody,
39:50
Speaker 4: is the Monday edition of The Todd Starn Show. Our
39:53
Speaker 4: two Jesus alone, Dylan, have you ever had one of
39:59
Speaker 4: one of those days? I was debating whether or not
40:02
Speaker 4: to I've been a little under the weather over the weekend,
40:05
Speaker 4: and I thought, you know, I probably should just call
40:07
Speaker 4: in today and just take a take a sick day.
40:11
Speaker 4: And you know how stubborn I am, so I thought, no,
40:13
Speaker 4: I'll just I don't. I don't feel quite like death
40:17
Speaker 4: warmed over. So I'm like, I've cooled off a bit,
40:20
Speaker 4: but i still feel like death.
40:21
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're gonna You're gonna come into work no matter what,
40:25
Speaker 2: pretty much. So you're here.
40:27
Speaker 4: It was interesting years ago when I was having my
40:30
Speaker 4: heart you know, I had the open heart surgery and
40:32
Speaker 4: you're out like six weeks. By like week four, I
40:36
Speaker 4: was like wanting to come back in. You know, They're like, no,
40:40
Speaker 4: you can't do that. I'm a work ahol. They say it,
40:43
Speaker 4: you're a workaholic. I just enjoy work, and I don't
40:47
Speaker 4: think there's anything wrong with that. I mean some people enjoy,
40:50
Speaker 4: you know, slothing off and not doing anything. I know,
40:55
Speaker 4: I whatever, whatever you enjoy doing, I just say do
40:59
Speaker 4: and I'm I enjoy working. So anyway, all that to say,
41:03
Speaker 4: a little discombobulated today. So the brain fog is that
41:08
Speaker 4: what it is?
41:09
Speaker 2: I think that's what they call it. Man.
41:10
Speaker 4: It's the weather's changing, and of course we had what
41:13
Speaker 4: the daylight saving time we lost. This was the one
41:16
Speaker 4: where it's back to normal.
41:17
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was awake for that, by the way, I
41:19
Speaker 2: hate admitting it, But two am rolled around and then
41:22
Speaker 2: it was three am, and then I was like well,
41:24
Speaker 2: I'm gonna have to get up in three hours.
41:26
Speaker 4: So you watch the clock. It was like one fifty
41:28
Speaker 4: nine fifty nine three o'clock.
41:30
Speaker 2: Yes, and I completely forgot that it was happening.
41:34
Speaker 4: So wow, A lot of people don't want to change back.
41:37
Speaker 4: I don't, I hear you.
41:40
Speaker 2: Yeah.
41:40
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't like the old. Yeah, I don't like
41:42
Speaker 4: the other way. I like this way, the springing forward.
41:46
Speaker 2: Yeah. I like more sunlight when I go home, not
41:48
Speaker 2: when it's you know, it's pitch black at five pm here.
41:51
Speaker 2: So that's not ever fun.
41:53
Speaker 4: Oh gosh, no, that's never fun at all. Nine oh
41:56
Speaker 4: one two six zero five nine two six are telephone over.
41:58
Speaker 4: That's nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
42:02
Speaker 4: There was an interesting story we didn't get around of
42:04
Speaker 4: talking about on Friday, and Dylan, I'm curious you went
42:08
Speaker 4: to the University of Memphis. Did you guys have like
42:10
Speaker 4: any kind of like pe requirement that you had to
42:14
Speaker 4: take some sort of physical education class to graduate?
42:17
Speaker 2: No? Not in college really. Yeah.
42:19
Speaker 4: So when I was in school, when I was in college,
42:22
Speaker 4: we had to do that. We had to take some
42:24
Speaker 4: sort of an elective class that would get us our
42:27
Speaker 4: three hours of credit for whatever sport, I forget what
42:31
Speaker 4: I did.
42:32
Speaker 2: That's interesting. I would never think that that would be
42:34
Speaker 2: a requirement, I guess just because I never had to
42:36
Speaker 2: do it.
42:37
Speaker 4: So going back to the like nineteen hundreds, so this was,
42:41
Speaker 4: you know, two centuries ago. This is not the twentiet well,
42:44
Speaker 4: it was like the nineteen hundreds, and then going into
42:47
Speaker 4: the twentieth century, the eighteen hundreds, nineteen hundreds. In the
42:52
Speaker 4: twentieth century, it's the brain flog. So anyway, many colleges
42:57
Speaker 4: required a swimming You had to take a swimming test.
43:02
Speaker 4: So if you were in say for example, and this
43:05
Speaker 4: was across the board. It was especially true in the
43:08
Speaker 4: Ivy League schools where you had to take a swimming test,
43:13
Speaker 4: but across the board most schools in America at the time,
43:16
Speaker 4: most colleges, to get your degree, you had to prove
43:20
Speaker 4: that they would throw you in a swimming pool and
43:24
Speaker 4: you had to make sure that you survived and you
43:26
Speaker 4: did not drown, and if you survived, then you got
43:31
Speaker 4: your degree. Now, there was an actual reason for this,
43:36
Speaker 4: and we're going to get to that in just a moment.
43:40
Speaker 4: It turns out, though that a lot of colleges today
43:44
Speaker 4: are doing away with their swimming test requirement, most recently
43:49
Speaker 4: Williams College in Massachusetts, and the reason why is that
43:55
Speaker 4: they say forcing students to take a swimming test is
43:59
Speaker 4: a form of racism. Williams College Diversity Advisory Research Team
44:06
Speaker 4: conducted a study regarding the swim test, and they found
44:10
Speaker 4: that eighty one percent of students that took the college's
44:13
Speaker 4: beginner swim course were domestic students of color, while only
44:18
Speaker 4: three percent were white kids. According to a professor at
44:27
Speaker 4: the University of Montana, Jeff Wiltsey, he says in a
44:31
Speaker 4: Chronicle for Higher Education article, the swim test our clear
44:35
Speaker 4: and obvious past discrimination. He said, quote clear, and this
44:40
Speaker 4: is coming from Campus Reform. By the way, Campus were
44:43
Speaker 4: Kate Anderson the fine reporter there at Campus Reform, the
44:48
Speaker 4: professor said, clear and obvious past discrimination still is a primary,
44:53
Speaker 4: if not the primary, reason why we have these disparate
44:57
Speaker 4: swimming proficiency rates today. According to the Center for Disease Control,
45:02
Speaker 4: minorities under the age of twenty nine were more likely
45:06
Speaker 4: to die via unintentional drowning than their white counterparts. Asian
45:11
Speaker 4: and black students were the most at risk. Now, Campus
45:16
Speaker 4: Reform reached out to the professor and he told Campus
45:19
Speaker 4: Reform that the past racial discrimination resulted in a lack
45:23
Speaker 4: of swim lessons and overall access to pools, and that
45:29
Speaker 4: was why he was in support of removing the swim requirement.
45:33
Speaker 4: A number of other schools have already done so, Cornell, Dartmouth, Columbia, Hamilton, MIT,
45:40
Speaker 4: and Swarthmore. So it turns out, and we did a
45:45
Speaker 4: little bit of research on this, it turns out that
45:49
Speaker 4: the reason why there was a reason why many of
45:51
Speaker 4: these schools had swimming requirements now back in say, the
45:59
Speaker 4: late eighteen eighties and eighteen nineties, many of these kids
46:04
Speaker 4: were living in areas where they had to forge, they
46:08
Speaker 4: had to ford creeks and rivers. They were around large
46:13
Speaker 4: bodies of water, and they realized that a lot of
46:15
Speaker 4: people were drowning. And much like for example, CPR, where
46:19
Speaker 4: you take a CPR test so you can help somebody
46:23
Speaker 4: if if they suffer a medical emergency, they wanted to
46:27
Speaker 4: make sure that American young people would be able to
46:30
Speaker 4: swim if they inadvertently slipped into a river. This is
46:36
Speaker 4: also becoming an issue in Maine Bowden College. According to
46:44
Speaker 4: Bowden College, DEI fanatics began complaining that blacks are allegedly
46:49
Speaker 4: less likely to pass swimming tests than their white counterparts,
46:55
Speaker 4: this coming from the main wire dot Com. From all indications,
47:01
Speaker 4: Main's elite Bowden College has never required swimming a pool
47:05
Speaker 4: lap to receive a sheep skin. Undoubtedly, if Boden had
47:12
Speaker 4: required someone like, for example, Zoorn Mam Dommy, oh, he
47:16
Speaker 4: was a student there. By the way, if Boden had
47:21
Speaker 4: required Mam Dommy to swim a lap, he'd have played
47:23
Speaker 4: the racism card even though he isn't black. There you go.
47:29
Speaker 4: So all that to say good luck to all you
47:33
Speaker 4: children out there across America. And here's hoping that you
47:37
Speaker 4: don't slip and fall into a swimming pool, because according
47:41
Speaker 4: to the the Dei gods, it is now racist to
47:46
Speaker 4: teach young people how to swim. Unbelievable. Nine oh one
47:52
Speaker 4: two six zero five nine two six is our telephone number.
47:55
Speaker 4: That's nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
47:59
Speaker 4: This is the Time Stern show.
48:08
Speaker 8: Man.
48:08
Speaker 4: Welcome back to the Ton Sterns Radio Show. By the way,
48:13
Speaker 4: we are very excited about the upcoming launch of my
48:16
Speaker 4: brand new book and it is called The Golden Age.
48:19
Speaker 4: How Trump Saved America. This is this was a fun,
48:23
Speaker 4: fun book to write, and there was such a wealth
48:26
Speaker 4: of material. Originally they wanted like a fifty thousand word book,
48:30
Speaker 4: ended up being a seventy five thousand word book, and
48:32
Speaker 4: I had to chomp it down from there. It was
48:34
Speaker 4: like eighty or eighty five thousand words. I did a
48:36
Speaker 4: lot of writing on this, and I wanted to take
48:39
Speaker 4: you guys through the incredible successes that Donald Trump has
48:44
Speaker 4: enjoyed and the incredible, the incredible things he has done
48:48
Speaker 4: for our nation. A lot of that gets lost in
48:50
Speaker 4: the noise and the chaos of the media. So this
48:55
Speaker 4: book is condenses all of the incredible success stories. And
49:00
Speaker 4: also I wanted to provide a pathway forward. What does
49:05
Speaker 4: the America First Movement look like after President Trump leaves office?
49:09
Speaker 4: Who is going to be the standard bearer of that movement?
49:12
Speaker 4: And what responsibility do we all have to play, Because
49:17
Speaker 4: certainly there are looming there are looming warning signs. Some
49:21
Speaker 4: are already here. We talked in the last hour about
49:24
Speaker 4: the rise of Islam in America. For example, what's happening,
49:29
Speaker 4: the radicalization in our schools is not going away, and
49:33
Speaker 4: this war and I'm going to get into that in
49:35
Speaker 4: just a little while but this war with Iran could well,
49:42
Speaker 4: it could end up not going the way we thought
49:45
Speaker 4: it was going to go. So the question is what
49:48
Speaker 4: does the future look like? And I take a stab
49:50
Speaker 4: at that. In the book again, it is called the
49:53
Speaker 4: Golden Age, How Trump Saved America. I would love for
49:56
Speaker 4: you to pre order a copy right now, and you
49:59
Speaker 4: can do that going to your favorite bookstore Amazon, Barnes
50:03
Speaker 4: and Noble Books a million. If you have a local bookstore,
50:07
Speaker 4: be sure to do business with those good people as
50:11
Speaker 4: as well. All right, nine oh one two six zero
50:14
Speaker 4: five nine two six are number. That's nine oh one
50:17
Speaker 4: two six zero five, nine to six. So someone sent
50:22
Speaker 4: me this over the weekend. I thought this cannot be true.
50:24
Speaker 4: It just can't be true. Now yours truly. Tom Stearns
50:30
Speaker 4: was a come Scout back in the day until I
50:34
Speaker 4: fell off the Scout float during the South Haven, Mississippi
50:38
Speaker 4: Christmas Parade. It was a very unfortunate situation there, and
50:42
Speaker 4: then I decided I didn't want to be in scouting anymore.
50:45
Speaker 4: So over the years the Boy Scouts have been have
50:49
Speaker 4: been ditching just about every single one of their founding values,
50:54
Speaker 4: and it got to the point where they even took
50:56
Speaker 4: the word boy out of the name of the organization.
50:59
Speaker 4: They just called it Scouts. So someone sent this to me.
51:03
Speaker 4: And as crazy as things have gotten in the boy Scouts,
51:06
Speaker 4: where you can be a girl who identifies as a
51:09
Speaker 4: boy or a girl, or you can you know, you
51:13
Speaker 4: can be LGB or T and be a Scout master,
51:16
Speaker 4: it doesn't matter all of that stuff. In spite of
51:19
Speaker 4: all of that stuff, I was still shocked when I
51:22
Speaker 4: found out about a new badge that boy Scouts are
51:27
Speaker 4: going to be able to earn. It's called the Islamophobia
51:31
Speaker 4: Awareness Month badge. To earn the badge, you have to
51:36
Speaker 4: learn about and this is for boy Scouts, Okay, boy Scouts.
51:40
Speaker 4: To learn about the badge or to earn the badge,
51:42
Speaker 4: you have to learn about the five Pillars of Islam.
51:45
Speaker 4: You have to visit a mosque, you have to listen
51:48
Speaker 4: to the call to prayer, you have to learn about
51:51
Speaker 4: Muslim role models. So, ladies and gentlemen, this is they
51:57
Speaker 4: want your kids to embrace Islam. That's what they're wanting
52:00
Speaker 4: you to do. No, Dylan, they don't have to wage jihad. Now,
52:06
Speaker 4: that's that is not on this list. Maybe for the
52:11
Speaker 4: Eagle Scout maybe that's maybe that's what you have to do.
52:16
Speaker 2: That's terrible.
52:17
Speaker 4: Blow something up.
52:18
Speaker 2: She's a loop your last mission.
52:21
Speaker 4: Uh geez a loop. So I thought, wow, okay, So
52:26
Speaker 4: that got me to thinking, I mean, there, there you
52:28
Speaker 4: have it. It is And I checked it out on
52:30
Speaker 4: the boy Scout page and sure enough, it is. It's there.
52:34
Speaker 4: It is a it's one of the one of the
52:36
Speaker 4: badges that you can earn as a boy Scout. And
52:41
Speaker 4: I started scrolling. I wanted to see if there were
52:43
Speaker 4: any other badges for any other religions. I mean, I
52:46
Speaker 4: was scrolling through. You can be you can get a
52:49
Speaker 4: badge for being a camper or a caver or doing
52:53
Speaker 4: circus skills. If you want to be a clown, I guess.
52:57
Speaker 4: And those clowns scare me. That's a conversation for another day.
53:02
Speaker 4: Oh a communicator, I could you know I could get
53:05
Speaker 4: the communicator badge. That would be an easy one for me.
53:09
Speaker 4: Oh A d I y. So if you're on HGTV,
53:12
Speaker 4: I guess you can get a badge there. So they
53:14
Speaker 4: have all these badges and it's very interesting because there
53:19
Speaker 4: isn't one for Christianity, not one at all. As a
53:23
Speaker 4: matter of fact, there is one for something called world religions,
53:30
Speaker 4: world faiths. And according to the Boy Scouts, to get
53:35
Speaker 4: that badge, well, you can go and visit a temple
53:38
Speaker 4: or a mosque or a synagogue. You can study Buddhism
53:42
Speaker 4: or Sikhism, or Hinduism or Judaism. Oh, they do sneak
53:47
Speaker 4: Christianity in there. But the only religion that has offered
53:53
Speaker 4: an exclusive activity badge in the Boy Scouts is the
53:59
Speaker 4: Islamic fan Interesting, ladies and gentlemen, I know so many people.
54:04
Speaker 4: They have lost millions and millions of their supporters and
54:09
Speaker 4: their members over the years. It's just unbelievable. The media
54:13
Speaker 4: will not cover the true story of how the Boy
54:15
Speaker 4: Scouts were destroyed. But let me say this about the
54:18
Speaker 4: Boy Scouts. They were initially founded as a strongly rooted
54:26
Speaker 4: in the Christian faith tradition. As a matter of fact,
54:31
Speaker 4: the concept of Christian morality and duty to God was
54:38
Speaker 4: was birthed out of the teachings of the Bible. I mean,
54:42
Speaker 4: these were foundational beliefs of the Boy Scouts. And now
54:46
Speaker 4: now the ideal Boy Scout is one who studies Islam.
54:53
Speaker 4: And here's what's going to happen. Going to I'm gonna
54:56
Speaker 4: make a bold prediction here. I do think the Islamist
55:00
Speaker 4: are going to conquer America. I mean, they're in the
55:02
Speaker 4: middle of colonizing our nation even as we speak. And
55:06
Speaker 4: the reason why that's going to happen is because we
55:08
Speaker 4: do not have serious people pastoring our churches. We do
55:12
Speaker 4: not have serious people in the halls of Congress. They
55:16
Speaker 4: don't see what's about to happen to this country. And
55:20
Speaker 4: they need to take a long, hard look at what
55:22
Speaker 4: Lebanon used to look like, what Iran used to look like,
55:25
Speaker 4: and look at where they are now. That's that's who
55:31
Speaker 4: we're going to be if we do not figure out
55:34
Speaker 4: how do we slow this down, how do we stop it?
55:36
Speaker 4: Does Congressman Andy Ogles and Randy find by the way,
55:40
Speaker 4: do they have the right idea when they say we've
55:44
Speaker 4: got to we've got to boot these people out of
55:46
Speaker 4: the country now again, you are free to come here
55:50
Speaker 4: and practice your religion, but you cannot impose that religion
55:55
Speaker 4: upon everybody else. The great thing about Judeo Christian teachings,
56:00
Speaker 4: our philosophy, our founding documents is you have a choice.
56:04
Speaker 4: In Islam, the only choice is either become an Islamic
56:08
Speaker 4: convert or you die. I mean it's that those are
56:12
Speaker 4: your choices there. So anyway, we'll talk more about this
56:15
Speaker 4: a little bit later. Also coming up, Minnesota Democrats are
56:19
Speaker 4: now wanting to study the benefits of shoplifting. That's right,
56:25
Speaker 4: ladies and gentlemen. The Democrats say that there is a
56:28
Speaker 4: benefit to shoplifting. So we'll tell you all about that
56:32
Speaker 4: as well. Our telephone number nine oh one two six

Speaker 4: got the thunder and the lightning and the storms.
58:10
Speaker 2: Jeez a lou We usually keep the lights off in
58:12
Speaker 2: this studio back here, and you know the natural light
58:15
Speaker 2: likes to come in. Today, it's not that at all.
58:18
Speaker 4: No, you guys are completely in the dark.
58:20
Speaker 2: I'm sure you can't even see me in here.
58:22
Speaker 4: Oh no, I can't. I just see I see glasses
58:25
Speaker 4: that are like moving in the kind of like you're
58:27
Speaker 4: a ghost.
58:28
Speaker 2: Yeah, very ominous thunders coming behind us.
58:31
Speaker 4: Jeez a lou, Hey, I want to play this audio.
58:34
Speaker 4: This Congressman Chip Roy just moments ago he was asked
58:38
Speaker 4: about this terrorist attack in New York City over the weekend.
58:41
Speaker 4: And a guy by the name is Jake Laying. You
58:44
Speaker 4: might remember his name. He was one of the activist
58:48
Speaker 4: out there. He attacked police officers during the j six riots,
58:54
Speaker 4: and so he's he was in Minnesota and now he's
58:57
Speaker 4: out there. Oh what was it? He was running around
58:59
Speaker 4: with a with a pig in Times Square during the
59:05
Speaker 4: during the Islamic prayers the other day cut number twelve people.
59:11
Speaker 1: How concerned should Americans be about the increase in threats,
59:15
Speaker 1: especially given this Democrat DHS shut down.
59:19
Speaker 4: Not a great time.
59:21
Speaker 12: Yeah, first of all, I've been able to hear all
59:22
Speaker 12: of this and deeply concerning what's going on in New
59:25
Speaker 12: York City, today's turn of events and finding the device
59:28
Speaker 12: there in the automobile not far from the you know,
59:31
Speaker 12: Governor's mansion. Than after what happened yesterday with those two IEDs.
59:36
Speaker 12: By let's be very clear. I mean, Mom Noddy won't
59:38
Speaker 12: say it, but these were two Muslims who were shouting,
59:41
Speaker 12: you know, alo a akbar, and you know, we know
59:44
Speaker 12: what the motive there is. And so in Austin, Texas,
59:46
Speaker 12: as you mentioned just a couple of weeks ago, we
59:49
Speaker 12: had that event where we had loss of life with
59:51
Speaker 12: the University of Texas students at Texas Tech University student
59:55
Speaker 12: others who were killed. And you know, we're dealing with
59:57
Speaker 12: somebody who had a sweatshirt that said property of a
59:59
Speaker 12: lot Ah, had a karan in the back of his car,
1:00:02
Speaker 12: and was wearing an Iranian flag t shirt. Again, you
1:00:04
Speaker 12: don't really have to do a deep level of investigation
1:00:06
Speaker 12: to look and see what the motives are here. You
1:00:09
Speaker 12: saw what happened on the airplane where there was death
1:00:11
Speaker 12: to America, death to Donald Trump. Look, when you've imported
1:00:15
Speaker 12: eighteen thousand people that are affiliated with terrorists, as happened
1:00:19
Speaker 12: under the Biden administration with the legal aliens coming here
1:00:22
Speaker 12: or through other programs, when you've allowed almost five million
1:00:25
Speaker 12: people to be imported into the United States since nine
1:00:27
Speaker 12: to eleven from majority Muslim countries, then you're going to
1:00:31
Speaker 12: have a problem here at home. So the president's doing
1:00:33
Speaker 12: a great job. We're taking the fight to obviously what
1:00:37
Speaker 12: has been an evil regime in Iran that has been
1:00:39
Speaker 12: destabilizing to the world, a threat to our national security.
1:00:42
Speaker 12: I'm glad he's doing it, targeting the conventional weapons, targeting
1:00:45
Speaker 12: the nuclear weapons, importantly, standing strong to defend our interests
1:00:51
Speaker 12: against Iran. But here we've got at home a larger
1:00:56
Speaker 12: population of people that are now sympathetic and are literally
1:01:00
Speaker 12: in New York City protesting in favor of the evil
1:01:04
Speaker 12: regime in Iran. That's a real problem, and we're gonna
1:01:07
Speaker 12: have to address it here at home too.
1:01:09
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it is a real problem. And I don't
1:01:12
Speaker 4: think we're gonna be able to chat.
1:01:14
Speaker 2: I don't.
1:01:14
Speaker 4: I mean, who knows, but I don't think that we're
1:01:17
Speaker 4: gonna be able to apport every single Muslim that's in
1:01:20
Speaker 4: the country. Let's go to the phone lines nine oh
1:01:23
Speaker 4: one two six zero five nine two six hour number.
1:01:26
Speaker 4: That's nine oh one two six zero five nine two
1:01:28
Speaker 4: six Danny and Selmer Tennessee Danny, what's on your mind today?
1:01:35
Speaker 13: Good Effinitly, sir, I think one of the basics you
1:01:39
Speaker 13: just basically leave Muslim religion and stuff like that out
1:01:42
Speaker 13: of it and use the argument if you want come
1:01:46
Speaker 13: this country and you don't want to assimilate, if you
1:01:49
Speaker 13: don't believe in our core values such as freedom of religion,
1:01:52
Speaker 13: and we're a republic, we're not communist, we're not socialist,
1:01:56
Speaker 13: and so on and so forth. If you don't believe
1:01:57
Speaker 13: in that stuff, don't want to assimilate those beliefs, then
1:02:00
Speaker 13: don't come here.
1:02:02
Speaker 4: And if you are here, leave, I mean, it seems
1:02:06
Speaker 4: like a pretty sensible thing you've suggested there, Danny. And
1:02:09
Speaker 4: you know, one of the challenges is for years we
1:02:12
Speaker 4: have not been asking people to do what you just
1:02:15
Speaker 4: said we need to be doing.
1:02:17
Speaker 13: Well, yeah, I mean, look at people that do live
1:02:19
Speaker 13: here and they break the law. What happens. They go
1:02:22
Speaker 13: to prison. They don't get ejected out of the country,
1:02:24
Speaker 13: but they go to prison. So if you don't believe
1:02:26
Speaker 13: in our core beliefs and you break the laws and
1:02:28
Speaker 13: the values, you get in trouble. So if you're from
1:02:30
Speaker 13: somewhere else, then you go back where you came from,
1:02:33
Speaker 13: don't go to prison. Whatever. If you don't believe in
1:02:35
Speaker 13: keeping our borders safe and closed, well you can leave.
1:02:39
Speaker 13: You can just not come here, and so on and
1:02:40
Speaker 13: so forth, just the basic values that country is built on,
1:02:44
Speaker 13: basic concepts, freem of religion, freedom speak, so on and
1:02:47
Speaker 13: so forth. If you don't believe in that, this is
1:02:49
Speaker 13: not the place for.
1:02:50
Speaker 4: You, Danny well said, yeah, well said my friend, thank
1:02:53
Speaker 4: you for calling in today. Nine oh one two six
1:02:56
Speaker 4: zero five, nine two six. That's nine oh one two
1:03:00
Speaker 4: six zero five, nine to six. So look, we just
1:03:04
Speaker 4: got word in that President Trump is going to be
1:03:06
Speaker 4: holding a news conference this evening five thirty Eastern time
1:03:11
Speaker 4: in Miami, and that's going to happen before the President
1:03:15
Speaker 4: returns to Washington. He's scheduled to be back in DC
1:03:18
Speaker 4: later tonight. The President will be speaking from Trump National
1:03:23
Speaker 4: Dorale Golf Club. President. I'm just reading the message here
1:03:29
Speaker 4: for you. No doubt he's going to get a lot
1:03:32
Speaker 4: of questions about about Iran and the situation there is
1:03:39
Speaker 4: getting a little interesting. So I want to be careful
1:03:44
Speaker 4: here with how we frame this conversation. I believe that
1:03:48
Speaker 4: President Trump should do everything that is humanly possible to
1:03:52
Speaker 4: destroy Iran. Everything that is humanly possible that is that
1:03:58
Speaker 4: has to be done here. We cannot just cut bait,
1:04:02
Speaker 4: and there are there are some rumblings that we may
1:04:05
Speaker 4: just do that. We may just say, you know what,
1:04:07
Speaker 4: mission accomplished, and we're leaving. Well, we we mission was
1:04:11
Speaker 4: not accomplished because the sun of the former Ayatola, who
1:04:17
Speaker 4: is now dead, is now in charge. So you've got
1:04:20
Speaker 4: Iotola Junior who was out there, and he's going to
1:04:25
Speaker 4: be just as bad as daddy was. So now there's
1:04:30
Speaker 4: so yesterday there was a big scuttle butt on Fox News.
1:04:35
Speaker 4: Maria Bartiromo asked Caroline leve at the White House Press
1:04:38
Speaker 4: Secretary a question about, well, okay, you know, a lot
1:04:41
Speaker 4: of parents aren't kind of concerned. Now are we going
1:04:45
Speaker 4: to be expecting, you know, boots on the ground. Are
1:04:47
Speaker 4: we going to implement the draft? And Levitt gave the
1:04:50
Speaker 4: right answer, But the problem is the right answer raised
1:04:54
Speaker 4: more eyebrows. And the right answer is, well, the president
1:04:56
Speaker 4: is not going to take anything off the table. The
1:04:59
Speaker 4: president and also is not going to dictate in public
1:05:02
Speaker 4: in the media what his plans are for defeating the Iranians.
1:05:07
Speaker 4: And that's the correct response. But at the same time,
1:05:12
Speaker 4: she did not take off the table the idea of
1:05:14
Speaker 4: boots on the ground. And let me just say, ladies
1:05:17
Speaker 4: and gentlemen, I think that is a very dangerous path
1:05:21
Speaker 4: that this country will go down. We're not talking about
1:05:24
Speaker 4: we're not talking about kuwait here, We're talking about a massive,
1:05:29
Speaker 4: massive nation. And if we're going to put American boots
1:05:33
Speaker 4: on the ground, or if that's even being considered, we
1:05:37
Speaker 4: will be looking at significant casualties. There's just no way
1:05:41
Speaker 4: around it, no way around it. All right, I want
1:05:44
Speaker 4: to go to the phone lines nine oh one two
1:05:46
Speaker 4: six zero five, nine two six, say hello, to our
1:05:49
Speaker 4: good friend Murph in Germantown, Tennessee, listening to us on KWAM.
1:05:54
Speaker 4: Hey Murph, what's going on?
1:05:57
Speaker 14: Doctor Storm's always a pleasure have a commentary on your
1:06:01
Speaker 14: previous discussion about Islam. In the Qur'an, it is written
1:06:08
Speaker 14: by Mohammed Blessings and peace be upon his name, that
1:06:12
Speaker 14: any most true believer has his permission to lie and
1:06:18
Speaker 14: to deceive their opposition. It is written in the Qur'an.
1:06:23
Speaker 14: I can't remember if it's called presupposition or disposition. So
1:06:28
Speaker 14: you are if you are a believer in Islam and
1:06:32
Speaker 14: you want to integrate into society, you can lie to
1:06:39
Speaker 14: get your way inside whatever society you want to believe.
1:06:44
Speaker 14: And then when the call comes from Mecca to destroy
1:06:49
Speaker 14: the non believer, you are inside that society and you
1:06:54
Speaker 14: will do that without questions. One of Yosama ben Lauden's
1:07:00
Speaker 14: lieutenants or generals or colonels had a statement that I've
1:07:05
Speaker 14: never forgotten, sixty minutes of jihad is worth sixty hours
1:07:14
Speaker 14: of prayer. And how you can apply the Second Amendment
1:07:19
Speaker 14: to Islam befuddles anyone with an IQ above ten. Because
1:07:25
Speaker 14: Islam is a theocracy. It is not a religion, and
1:07:30
Speaker 14: it is a false teaching because it believes in something
1:07:35
Speaker 14: that has never taken place. There is no proof whatsoever
1:07:41
Speaker 14: that Muhammad was visited by an angel or that he
1:07:46
Speaker 14: wrote ever wrote down, or any of his so called visions.
1:07:52
Speaker 14: And if he didn't write it down in the Koran
1:07:56
Speaker 14: and he said, well, let's rethink this, made up any
1:08:02
Speaker 14: suggestions that he may have forgotten, i e. Multiple wives,
1:08:08
Speaker 14: beating your wife, divorcing your wife by simply saying I
1:08:13
Speaker 14: divorce her. So anyone that believes or follows Islam in
1:08:18
Speaker 14: this country needs to be watched constantly. And if you
1:08:22
Speaker 14: don't believe that, I suggest you look at Dearborn, Michigan
1:08:26
Speaker 14: and parts of Minneapolis St.
1:08:29
Speaker 8: Paul.
1:08:30
Speaker 4: You know it's interesting, Murph, And I'm going to butcher
1:08:34
Speaker 4: the name here of my apologies, I do not speak Arabic,
1:08:37
Speaker 4: but there's actually a word for what you just described.
1:08:40
Speaker 4: Tak yah. I believe is the hopefully the pronunciation of it.
1:08:45
Speaker 4: But it is a concept that actually allows a Muslim
1:08:48
Speaker 4: to conceal their their faith or religious identity to protect
1:08:52
Speaker 4: them from danger, and that would allow them, you know,
1:08:55
Speaker 4: to lie or deceive. And when you you know, I
1:09:00
Speaker 4: I watch Zorn Mamdami in New York City.
1:09:03
Speaker 2: Uh.
1:09:03
Speaker 4: That's that's the takeaway every time I hear that guy speak,
1:09:06
Speaker 4: because he then he turns around. He wants to be this,
1:09:09
Speaker 4: uh you know, this embracer of diversity and equity and inclusion.
1:09:14
Speaker 4: And then he turns around and he goes and he
1:09:15
Speaker 4: speaks in these mosques that are openly calling for the
1:09:19
Speaker 4: destruction of America. It's it's not adding up here.
1:09:25
Speaker 14: It's not just the destruction of America, doctor Starnes. It's
1:09:29
Speaker 14: the destruction of non believers.
1:09:32
Speaker 4: Not Yes, you will.
1:09:33
Speaker 14: Cut off their right hand, you will cut off their
1:09:36
Speaker 14: left foot, and if that doesn't work, that you cut
1:09:40
Speaker 14: off their heads. Period, no questions asked.
1:09:44
Speaker 4: We are Yeah, we're considered to be what the infidels
1:09:47
Speaker 4: in their eyes.
1:09:49
Speaker 14: Yes, we are infidels. And you can quote. If anyone
1:09:55
Speaker 14: has any doubts management, Management would suggest you consult Winston Churchill,
1:10:03
Speaker 14: John Adams, and John Quincy Adams on their views of Islam,
1:10:10
Speaker 14: or the muscliman as they used to call them. When
1:10:13
Speaker 14: we were fighting the Barbary pirates who were taking our soldiers,
1:10:19
Speaker 14: or not our soldiers, our sailors off of American ships,
1:10:24
Speaker 14: and throwing them in prison.
1:10:27
Speaker 4: So and Murphy proved this.
1:10:29
Speaker 14: I don't know why people doubt.
1:10:31
Speaker 4: And Murph, you're the history teacher here, you know this.
1:10:33
Speaker 4: But you know a lot of people use that to say, oh, well,
1:10:36
Speaker 4: Jefferson was embracing, you know, Islam. He had his own
1:10:40
Speaker 4: copy of the Koran. No, he had a copy of
1:10:42
Speaker 4: the Koran, no doubt about that. But it was to
1:10:44
Speaker 4: study the enemy. He wanted to see how these people thought.
1:10:50
Speaker 14: Exactly, exactly. And it took me about a year to
1:10:54
Speaker 14: read it because it was the most bizarre book I
1:10:58
Speaker 14: have ever read other than the Book of Mormon. And
1:11:01
Speaker 14: that's way out there, buddy, boy, that's way out there.
1:11:04
Speaker 14: So anyway, food for thought.
1:11:07
Speaker 4: It is, indeed, Murph, thank you, thank you for the
1:11:09
Speaker 4: call and the commentary. Our good friend Murph from Germantown,
1:11:13
Speaker 4: retired high school history teacher. Ladies and gentlemen, and a
1:11:16
Speaker 4: great American patriot as well. Let's go to Iowa. Jerry
1:11:21
Speaker 4: is on the line. Jerry, what's going on?
1:11:24
Speaker 15: I wonder if this is coincidental. I think Murph is
1:11:27
Speaker 15: right on about Takia, the Muslim holy duty to lie
1:11:31
Speaker 15: to infidels like us, especially me. I just so I
1:11:36
Speaker 15: hear on the news that two guys eighteen and nineteen
1:11:40
Speaker 15: went over to Turkey, got radicalized, decided to follow Isis.
1:11:45
Speaker 15: So they show up at mom Dommy's mansion and they
1:11:48
Speaker 15: throw a couple of bombs for excuse for bombs. I
1:11:51
Speaker 15: think I could have done better, not that I would
1:11:54
Speaker 15: they and it doesn't quite work. So what is Mom
1:11:56
Speaker 15: Dommy do? He gets on the news and he says
1:12:03
Speaker 15: white Christian nationalists tried to kill him. Now how confusing
1:12:08
Speaker 15: is that? Two Isis guys throw some dud bombs at
1:12:12
Speaker 15: him and then he blames on white Christian nationalists. Now,
1:12:17
Speaker 15: I mean, how do you even deal with that? I mean,
1:12:22
Speaker 15: if that's not Takia, I don't know what is. Can
1:12:24
Speaker 15: you please explain this to me?
1:12:26
Speaker 4: No, it's it's a great point. And for example, a
1:12:29
Speaker 4: couple of weeks ago, you remember, may remember the story
1:12:31
Speaker 4: where New York City police officers were brutally beaten, pelted
1:12:36
Speaker 4: with chunks of ice and snowballs. Some of them were injured,
1:12:40
Speaker 4: and the mayor completely dismissed the entire incident, saying, oh,
1:12:45
Speaker 4: it was just a snowball fight. Well it wasn't just
1:12:47
Speaker 4: a snowball fight. You had injured officers, and yet the
1:12:51
Speaker 4: mayor is just twisting and he knows he can get
1:12:54
Speaker 4: away with it because he's got the media on his side.
1:12:58
Speaker 4: But in this case it was so bad, Jerry. Now
1:13:01
Speaker 4: the FBI is involved homeland security, so you know this
1:13:05
Speaker 4: is a much bigger deal now that the mayor can't
1:13:07
Speaker 4: just shove under a rock.
1:13:10
Speaker 15: Well, the main reason why this works is because the
1:13:13
Speaker 15: average person and Christians especially I love you know, I'm
1:13:17
Speaker 15: a Christian here, that we don't study enough or actually
1:13:20
Speaker 15: get off our peues to stand up a little bit.
1:13:24
Speaker 15: By the way, We've got some lovely Jews here in Iowa.
1:13:26
Speaker 15: Our Jews are the best, and we are working together
1:13:30
Speaker 15: to try to help the average person in society not
1:13:33
Speaker 15: to be such an ignoratus that they would believe the
1:13:36
Speaker 15: mainstream media. Because there's something much bigger going on here.
1:13:40
Speaker 15: Takia is a big part of it. And if you're
1:13:43
Speaker 15: just if you're ignorant, I'm not trying to be rude here,
1:13:45
Speaker 15: but if you're ignorant, you really might buy into some
1:13:48
Speaker 15: of this stuff. So so thank you for explaining that,
1:13:51
Speaker 15: brother Todd.
1:13:52
Speaker 4: Well, no, Jerry, thank you for the call. And this
1:13:55
Speaker 4: is a serious situation. I think education is a big
1:13:58
Speaker 4: part of it, and I think that church and Christian
1:14:01
Speaker 4: churches should at least take time during the year to educate,
1:14:07
Speaker 4: you know, the congregation about the dangers that are out
1:14:10
Speaker 4: there and the reality is. And by the way, I was,
1:14:13
Speaker 4: I was just on my Faith Assistant dot com that's
1:14:17
Speaker 4: our partner with Michael Yusef, and asking the question is
1:14:22
Speaker 4: is Islam a theocracy? And they not only lay it
1:14:26
Speaker 4: all out and they say it is, then they provide
1:14:29
Speaker 4: you with great biblical references to back up to back
1:14:33
Speaker 4: up their response. So doctor Yusef writing and my Faith
1:14:37
Speaker 4: Assistant dot com. Islam, particularly in many traditional and political streams,
1:14:43
Speaker 4: teaches a theocratic vision in which religious law called Shariah
1:14:48
Speaker 4: and state authority are fused. So there you go. That's
1:14:53
Speaker 4: that's what we're dealing with here. Got to take a
1:14:55
Speaker 4: break here, folks, this is the Todd Stern Show. All right,
1:15:02
Speaker 4: let's try to work Bob in from Georgia. Wdunn, Hi, Bob,
1:15:07
Speaker 4: what's on your mind today?
1:15:10
Speaker 8: Thank you, sir. It's my honor to speak with you.
1:15:14
Speaker 8: The Muslims when they come to this country square to
1:15:20
Speaker 8: uphold the US Constitution and the laws Now, a true Muslim,
1:15:26
Speaker 8: by his own religious faith, have to deny the Constitution.
1:15:31
Speaker 8: So they're lying. And in line, I believe that they
1:15:37
Speaker 8: deny the Constitution, that the United States has every authority
1:15:44
Speaker 8: to reject them and reject their citizenship. Their citizenship needs
1:15:51
Speaker 8: to be gone. There they have denied by their own statements.
1:16:03
Speaker 4: Yeah, Bob, I'm with you. Yeah, I'm with you. If
1:16:07
Speaker 4: if they cannot do that, they gotta go, all right,
1:16:10
Speaker 4: and we gotta go for a break here, Bob. Thank you.
1:16:13
Speaker 4: Nine o one two six zero five nine two six
1:16:16
Speaker 4: hour three of The Todd Stern Show, coming up next.
1:16:33
Speaker 1: Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's
1:16:39
Speaker 1: America's conservative blowtorch.
1:16:41
Speaker 11: That's that's American.
1:16:49
Speaker 2: Todd starts.
1:16:52
Speaker 4: Breaking news now on the Todd Starn Show. And Hello, everybody,
1:16:57
Speaker 4: welcome to our three of the Big Show. I am
1:17:00
Speaker 4: your host, Todd Stearns, and we do have some breaking
1:17:03
Speaker 4: news to share with you this coming out of New
1:17:06
Speaker 4: York City, where we can tell you federal charges are
1:17:10
Speaker 4: now being levied against the Muslims who wanted to wage
1:17:15
Speaker 4: jihad over the weekend right outside of Gracie Mansion. So
1:17:20
Speaker 4: the press conference getting underway. But the NYPD and the
1:17:24
Speaker 4: FEDS are announcing charges following this IED attack. We can
1:17:29
Speaker 4: tell you there is now bodycam video footage of one
1:17:33
Speaker 4: of the Muslims saying that he pledged allegiance to isis
1:17:38
Speaker 4: that they wanted the attack on conservatives over the weekend
1:17:44
Speaker 4: to be worse than the Boston Marathon bombings. Now, all
1:17:48
Speaker 4: of this unfolded on Saturday and Sunday when these Muslims
1:17:54
Speaker 4: threw IEDs into a crowd. Fortunately the IEDs did not explode,
1:18:00
Speaker 4: Otherwise we would be talking about a very very different
1:18:03
Speaker 4: story here because we understand the jars the IEDs were
1:18:08
Speaker 4: glass jars filled with all sorts of nails, lug nuts,
1:18:13
Speaker 4: and things of that nature, so a very very dangerous situation.
1:18:16
Speaker 4: Then on Sunday they discovered even more explosive devices that
1:18:21
Speaker 4: were located in vehicles in that area. So these guys
1:18:26
Speaker 4: were wanting to cause all sorts of mayhem. Meanwhile, the
1:18:31
Speaker 4: Ugandan Muslim mayor of New York City, Zora Man, dont
1:18:33
Speaker 4: be completely playing all of this down, all of it
1:18:37
Speaker 4: and turning a blind eye to the fact that you've
1:18:39
Speaker 4: got you've got terrorists now prowling about New York City.
1:18:44
Speaker 4: Trying to blow up good and decent people is unacceptable.
1:18:50
Speaker 4: So anyway, we're going to be keeping track of this
1:18:53
Speaker 4: a very very dangerous situation in New York City, and
1:18:58
Speaker 4: it is it is quite frankly shocking. By the way.
1:19:01
Speaker 4: These were teenagers and they lived. They lived in a
1:19:05
Speaker 4: multi million dollar home. The FBI raiding that home. It's
1:19:10
Speaker 4: really shocking. I think mom and dad came from Turkey.
1:19:14
Speaker 4: We're going to be going through the indictment. The complaint
1:19:16
Speaker 4: just dropped U was just unsealed moments ago. But they
1:19:22
Speaker 4: told officers a mere ballot eighteen years old told officers
1:19:28
Speaker 4: that they wanted to have a deaf count that exceeded
1:19:33
Speaker 4: the death count at the Boston Marathon, where again you
1:19:36
Speaker 4: had two Muslims. Why are we allowing these people into
1:19:41
Speaker 4: our country, Ladies and gentlemen, every single one of them
1:19:45
Speaker 4: needs to go. If you cannot pledge allegiance to America,
1:19:48
Speaker 4: if you cannot assimilate to our way of life, you
1:19:51
Speaker 4: have to go. It really is that simple. Nine oh
1:19:55
Speaker 4: one two six zero five nine two six. Our telephone number,
1:19:58
Speaker 4: that's nine oh one to six, zero five, nine to six.
1:20:03
Speaker 4: We have some other breaking news to share with you
1:20:05
Speaker 4: out of California, and this is going to get very interesting.
1:20:09
Speaker 4: Congressman Kevin Kylie, who was just on my Newsmax show
1:20:12
Speaker 4: a couple of nights ago, has just announced that he
1:20:16
Speaker 4: is leaving the Republican Party and will now be an
1:20:19
Speaker 4: independent and it is effective immediately.
1:20:23
Speaker 5: Now.
1:20:23
Speaker 4: We understand that Kylie is still going to caucus with
1:20:26
Speaker 4: the Republicans, but he is going to be running for
1:20:29
Speaker 4: office in the fall as an independent. So why is
1:20:34
Speaker 4: this a big deal? Well, it's a big deal because
1:20:36
Speaker 4: theoretically we lose one more Republican member of Congress. But
1:20:41
Speaker 4: the broader story, and we talked about this on the
1:20:44
Speaker 4: NEWSMAC Show a couple of nights ago, the broader story
1:20:47
Speaker 4: is that Kylie's district was literally being chopped up into
1:20:50
Speaker 4: six other districts. This is all part of Gavin Newsom's
1:20:54
Speaker 4: plan to eradicate the Republican Congressional Caucus, and Kevin Kyleie
1:20:59
Speaker 4: was one of those Republicans. By the way, Congressman darryl
1:21:03
Speaker 4: Isa from California announcing he will not be running for
1:21:07
Speaker 4: reelection because again his district, his congressional district, was completely
1:21:11
Speaker 4: obliterated by by the redistricting efforts. Now, Kylie says, really
1:21:18
Speaker 4: not much has changed, but Kylie is running for reelection
1:21:21
Speaker 4: and so he feels like he's got a better chance
1:21:24
Speaker 4: at running and winning as an independent than he does
1:21:28
Speaker 4: as a Democrat. We'll keep you updated on that. That
1:21:33
Speaker 4: is going to be interesting. And I will tell you this,
1:21:35
Speaker 4: ladies and gentlemen, when you take a look at the
1:21:40
Speaker 4: at the field for the midterm elections, with the numbers
1:21:44
Speaker 4: of Republicans that are retiring, this is this is going
1:21:49
Speaker 4: to be a tough slog And I will say this,
1:21:53
Speaker 4: a lot of a lot of good America First candidates
1:21:56
Speaker 4: are so angry right now over the lack of move
1:22:00
Speaker 4: in the US Senate when it comes to the Save
1:22:04
Speaker 4: America Act. There have been a lot of political shenanigans
1:22:08
Speaker 4: over the past I don't know, seventy two hours. Last week,
1:22:11
Speaker 4: of course, we had the election in Texas and Ken
1:22:15
Speaker 4: Paxton and John Cornyn will be going at it in May.
1:22:18
Speaker 4: President Trump says he's going to make an endorsement and
1:22:21
Speaker 4: when he does, he wants the person who does not
1:22:24
Speaker 4: get his endorsement, he wants that person to step aside.
1:22:31
Speaker 4: The question is who does Donald Trump select and I'm
1:22:35
Speaker 4: telling you right now, there is so much hatred within
1:22:39
Speaker 4: the Republican Party at John Cornyn right now. And my
1:22:44
Speaker 4: concern is this, if President Trump endorses John Cornyn instead
1:22:47
Speaker 4: of Ken Paxton, I think you're gonna have a lot
1:22:51
Speaker 4: of America First voters stay home in the midterms. I
1:22:56
Speaker 4: may be wrong on that, I don't think I am.
1:22:58
Speaker 4: I think there is that much hatred and that much
1:23:01
Speaker 4: outrage over the way John Cornyn has not only screwed
1:23:04
Speaker 4: over conservative voters, but John corn has screwed over Donald J. Trump.
1:23:09
Speaker 4: Keep that in mind. And now they're playing games and
1:23:14
Speaker 4: John Thune is saying, well, look, you know, if you
1:23:17
Speaker 4: pick Thoon, then we're gonna get the saveack through. You
1:23:20
Speaker 4: know what, again, I've had it with all of them.
1:23:23
Speaker 4: I've had it with every single Republican senator up on
1:23:26
Speaker 4: Capitol Hill right now, because not a one of them
1:23:29
Speaker 4: will condemn their leadership.
1:23:31
Speaker 6: We have.
1:23:32
Speaker 4: And by the way, just think about this, Wima's the
1:23:34
Speaker 4: last time you saw all of these people, the Ted
1:23:36
Speaker 4: Cruises and all of these guys up there openly condemning
1:23:41
Speaker 4: John Thune their majority leader. And you need to be
1:23:46
Speaker 4: calling your senators, and especially if you live in a
1:23:50
Speaker 4: place like Mississippi, for example, and say, what the heck
1:23:53
Speaker 4: is going on here? By the way, Senator Katie Britt
1:23:56
Speaker 4: from Alabama coming out over the weekend. She's backing John
1:23:59
Speaker 4: Corny and she's also against the Save America Act. How
1:24:05
Speaker 4: is that possible, folks. I'm just telling you there is
1:24:13
Speaker 4: an effort afoot to take out the president's agenda. They
1:24:17
Speaker 4: know they can't touch the president, but they can damage
1:24:21
Speaker 4: his agenda, and that's what they're doing. I mean, it
1:24:24
Speaker 4: is clear as day to me. The president is a
1:24:27
Speaker 4: good and decent man, but he will have his limits.
1:24:31
Speaker 4: And there's a very good chance that we can see
1:24:34
Speaker 4: the president on the warpath with his own party. Now.
1:24:40
Speaker 4: The Democrats are in disarray, complete disarray. As a matter
1:24:45
Speaker 4: of fact. In Texas, you guys, whoever wins the Republican nomination,
1:24:50
Speaker 4: I think is going to be the next senator because
1:24:52
Speaker 4: you've got James Tallerrico. That guy's creeping me out. He
1:24:56
Speaker 4: sort of looks like, oh remember the old Mad magazine
1:25:00
Speaker 4: sort of he kind of resembles alfredy Newman right with
1:25:02
Speaker 4: the gap tooth and the weird hairdoo. Something's not right
1:25:07
Speaker 4: about that guy. And here's he was asked on a podcast. Well,
1:25:11
Speaker 4: let me ask you this, Dylan, let me ask you something.
1:25:14
Speaker 4: A sign from your wife, a sign from your family.
1:25:17
Speaker 4: What is it that you love?
1:25:20
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, and I love barbecue.
1:25:22
Speaker 11: I do.
1:25:23
Speaker 2: That's a good combo.
1:25:24
Speaker 4: It's a great combo. It's a great Oh. By the way,
1:25:26
Speaker 4: did you see Banana bal We'll get to banana ba later,
1:25:29
Speaker 4: but did you see bananamal of it came to Memphis.
1:25:31
Speaker 2: Yes, it was sold.
1:25:33
Speaker 4: Out crowds not surprised anyway. But but again, it's so folks. Again,
1:25:40
Speaker 4: the question that mister taller Rica was asked, a sign
1:25:43
Speaker 4: from your family? You know, what do you love? And
1:25:46
Speaker 4: you heard Dylan. I mean, Dylan had no idea. I
1:25:49
Speaker 4: was going to ask that question, no idea. He knows baseball.
1:25:52
Speaker 2: I'm me.
1:25:53
Speaker 4: I'm a barbecue guy. So here's what. Here's what tall
1:25:57
Speaker 4: Rico is passionate about something that you love. It's not
1:26:01
Speaker 4: family or friends.
1:26:04
Speaker 16: I love. I'm just saying it because it's on my mind.
1:26:08
Speaker 16: The trans children who showed up yesterday at the state
1:26:12
Speaker 16: Capitol to advocate for their humanity. They shouldn't have to,
1:26:16
Speaker 16: but it was an inspiration to watch MM hmm.
1:26:19
Speaker 4: A preacher who says he loves trans children. I just
1:26:24
Speaker 4: love them. They're precious to me. You know, if I
1:26:28
Speaker 4: were the FBI, i'd be doing a browser search right
1:26:30
Speaker 4: about now. Let's let's pull up that browser history, sir.
1:26:34
Speaker 4: Let's take a look. How about in preacher? Is that
1:26:38
Speaker 4: not weird?
1:26:38
Speaker 13: Right?
1:26:39
Speaker 4: Who thinks like? Seriously? Who thinks like that? Still you're
1:26:42
Speaker 4: shaking your right?
1:26:44
Speaker 2: Isn't that weird?
1:26:47
Speaker 4: I think about the trans children and their one sas
1:26:53
Speaker 4: is that gonna fly in Texas? I don't think that
1:26:55
Speaker 4: flies even in Austin. I think even Inton awesome and
1:26:58
Speaker 4: they like that's that's the whole thing is being weird
1:27:01
Speaker 4: down in Austin. I mean they embrace it. I think
1:27:03
Speaker 4: it's their city logo. We're like weird. Even the folks
1:27:07
Speaker 4: of aust are like, dude, dude, that something's not right
1:27:11
Speaker 4: with that guy. I'm just telling you, all right, we
1:27:15
Speaker 4: gotta take you know, before we take a regul let's
1:27:17
Speaker 4: go to the votes. Nine oh one two six zero
1:27:20
Speaker 4: five nine two six. That's nine oh one two six
1:27:23
Speaker 4: zero five nine two six oh Can we play this?
1:27:26
Speaker 4: This is Tallarico talking about the best Christians in Texas.
1:27:30
Speaker 4: Are actually Muslims. Take a listen.
1:27:33
Speaker 9: I have met.
1:27:34
Speaker 16: I have met so many Hindus, Buddhists, Sikh, Jews, Muslims,
1:27:39
Speaker 16: Atheist agnostics who are more christ Like than some of
1:27:42
Speaker 16: the Christians I serve with in the Texas legislature. It
1:27:45
Speaker 16: is about how you treat other people, Matthew twenty five,
1:27:48
Speaker 16: people who who have read their Bible on them.
1:27:50
Speaker 14: You're not thinking a Ken Pact general.
1:27:53
Speaker 16: Yeah, well, you know he follows the Ken Commandments rather
1:27:57
Speaker 16: than the sen Commandments. But you know, Matthew twenty five
1:28:00
Speaker 16: tells us exactly how we're going to be judge and
1:28:02
Speaker 16: how we're going to be saved by feeding the hungry,
1:28:05
Speaker 16: by healing the sick, by welcoming the stranger, which is
1:28:08
Speaker 16: more timely now than ever it's ever been before. There's
1:28:11
Speaker 16: nothing in Matthew twenty five about reading your Bible. There's
1:28:14
Speaker 16: nothing about going to church, there's nothing about being a
1:28:17
Speaker 16: good Christian. It is all about how you treat it
1:28:19
Speaker 16: good people. And so I've met a lot of people
1:28:21
Speaker 16: from different faith traditions, people who aren't religious at all,
1:28:24
Speaker 16: who embody that teaching better than some of the really
1:28:29
Speaker 16: loud Christians that we have in public office.
1:28:31
Speaker 4: All right, I'm curious to hear from you Christians out
1:28:34
Speaker 4: there because he says the way to get to heaven
1:28:36
Speaker 4: is not to go to church, and it's you gotta
1:28:38
Speaker 4: love people. You got it? And I guess you have
1:28:40
Speaker 4: to be I don't know, obsessed with transgender children. Let's
1:28:44
Speaker 4: go to Kathy and Salem, Oregon, k y Ky and
1:28:47
Speaker 4: our great affiliate out there, Canthy. What's on your mind today?
1:28:53
Speaker 17: Hi, John, I don't really hear anybody talking about Abigail
1:28:59
Speaker 17: van Berger, lieutenant governor was sworn in on a.
1:29:03
Speaker 4: Koran and not the only one to be sworn in
1:29:09
Speaker 4: on a Quran.
1:29:10
Speaker 8: Uh.
1:29:11
Speaker 4: And and again there was a time when and it's
1:29:14
Speaker 4: not mandatory that you use a Bible. I think some
1:29:17
Speaker 4: of our early founding father presidents, one of them I
1:29:20
Speaker 4: think used the Constitution, others had other books, but to
1:29:25
Speaker 4: use the Quran. What does that tell you, Kathy?
1:29:28
Speaker 18: Oh, you know.
1:29:32
Speaker 17: It's he's a Muslim and she put the Quran above everything.
1:29:40
Speaker 4: Yes, they do. Godzilla Hashmi is her? Pardon me, gaz
1:29:45
Speaker 4: I apologies because Gazala Godzilla, that's the monster whoop smart
1:29:53
Speaker 4: Gazala Hashmi the lieutenant governor and you're right, first Muslim
1:29:57
Speaker 4: to hold office in Virginia. And she also made history
1:30:01
Speaker 4: by using a Koran for her oath of office ceremony.
1:30:06
Speaker 17: Yep, I just don't hear people talking about it. And
1:30:11
Speaker 17: I think wins the loss because she did. She wasn't
1:30:16
Speaker 17: talking about what the Democrats do to children in these
1:30:20
Speaker 17: utilization surgeries, which is what the predecessor won off because
1:30:27
Speaker 17: even Virginians don't want they want your hands off their kids.
1:30:31
Speaker 4: Well, she was a bad candy, she was a bad candidate, Kathy.
1:30:35
Speaker 4: I will just tell you I have had a lot
1:30:37
Speaker 4: of conversations off air with folks in the know, and
1:30:41
Speaker 4: she did not take political advice. She decided to do
1:30:45
Speaker 4: things her way. And the reality is, you can you know.
1:30:49
Speaker 4: And to your point, Glenn Youngkin, he's not some sort
1:30:52
Speaker 4: of a far right wing extremist, but he did embrace
1:30:56
Speaker 4: that particular issue and he worked with political experts to
1:31:01
Speaker 4: figure out how to craft that message so it would
1:31:04
Speaker 4: resonate with average voters and he they did, he did,
1:31:09
Speaker 4: and he ended up winning. So you know, you gotta
1:31:12
Speaker 4: you gotta listen, You gotta listen to the experts sometimes.
1:31:17
Speaker 17: Yes, that's all I wanted to say.
1:31:18
Speaker 4: All right, Kathy, great call. Thank you for listening out
1:31:21
Speaker 4: there in beautiful Salem, Oregon. Got to take a break.
1:31:25
Speaker 4: Nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
1:31:28
Speaker 4: This is the Todd Sterns Show. All right, I want
1:31:39
Speaker 4: to bring you up to speed on a lot of
1:31:41
Speaker 4: developing stories here. Coming up. We're gonna be you're gonna
1:31:45
Speaker 4: be hearing from a high school teacher in Steubenville High
1:31:48
Speaker 4: School in Ohio, recorded in his classroom calling Donald Trump
1:31:52
Speaker 4: a pedophile and saying that American service members have committed
1:31:58
Speaker 4: crimes against humanity. That is coming up. We also are
1:32:02
Speaker 4: following this press briefing that just wrapped up in New
1:32:04
Speaker 4: York City where a where where young people, young Muslim men,
1:32:11
Speaker 4: have been arrested and charged with all sorts of heinous crimes.
1:32:16
Speaker 4: They wanted whatever happened over the weekend, they were hoping
1:32:20
Speaker 4: it was going to be that the the body count
1:32:22
Speaker 4: was going to be higher than what happened at the
1:32:25
Speaker 4: Boston Marathon when you had the Sarnayev brothers. If you
1:32:29
Speaker 4: remember those guys, the Sarnayev brothers who blew up many
1:32:34
Speaker 4: many runners. They're saying it was this is the headline
1:32:38
Speaker 4: at Fox News suspect in terror probe planned attack bigger
1:32:42
Speaker 4: than Boston marathon bombing, also according to the NYPD. And
1:32:48
Speaker 4: we'll play some of this coming up in the next
1:32:50
Speaker 4: in the next segment of the show that the and
1:32:55
Speaker 4: this is the quote, if I can get to it,
1:32:59
Speaker 4: here we go, I play udge my allegiance to the
1:33:01
Speaker 4: Islamic State. Die in your rage, infidels. I mean, that's
1:33:07
Speaker 4: what the guy said in the bodycam footage. So thank
1:33:12
Speaker 4: the Good Lord that these devices did not work, or
1:33:15
Speaker 4: we would have been looking at dozens of people. I mean,
1:33:18
Speaker 4: when you see the rage here. But here's what gets me.
1:33:21
Speaker 4: They why are they filled with rage? These kids lived
1:33:25
Speaker 4: in a very exclusive neighborhood. They lived in a multi
1:33:29
Speaker 4: million dollar home. Their parents came here from Turkey, so
1:33:34
Speaker 4: we don't know how they got their money. But these
1:33:36
Speaker 4: kids were not living in poverty. These were very, very
1:33:40
Speaker 4: well off. They came from a very privileged home. And
1:33:43
Speaker 4: yet they turned around and they said, it doesn't matter,
1:33:47
Speaker 4: it doesn't matter that we're living the American dream. We're
1:33:49
Speaker 4: going to blow you up because you people are Christians
1:33:52
Speaker 4: and Jews. My question here, ladies and gentlemen, how do
1:33:57
Speaker 4: you how do you deal with that, how do you
1:33:59
Speaker 4: find out against that. I mean, they have everything. They
1:34:04
Speaker 4: have things that most American kids born and raised here
1:34:07
Speaker 4: do not have access to. And yet as good as
1:34:13
Speaker 4: America has treated this family, these kids, and we understand
1:34:17
Speaker 4: there were two, but I believe maybe six more. We're
1:34:20
Speaker 4: gonna check into the well, we'll dip back into the
1:34:22
Speaker 4: press conference to get that information for you. But there
1:34:25
Speaker 4: were a lot of people that were involved in this,
1:34:28
Speaker 4: all Muslim teenagers. Just think about that for a moment.
1:34:33
Speaker 4: This was happening in New York City. And let me
1:34:35
Speaker 4: tell you something. It's going to happen again. Nine oh
1:34:38
Speaker 4: one two six zero five nine two six. That's nine
1:34:42
Speaker 4: oh one two six zero five, nine two six. This
1:34:44
Speaker 4: is the Todd Sterns show.
1:35:04
Speaker 8: He was alleged.
1:35:05
Speaker 3: Both defendants have admitted that they acted on Saturday because
1:35:10
Speaker 3: of Isis. As Kyumi was being placed into an NYPD
1:35:14
Speaker 3: vehicle following his arrest, a person in the crowd asked
1:35:19
Speaker 3: why he had done this, as shown on NYPD body
1:35:22
Speaker 3: worn camera footage reference in the complaint, Coyumi responded with
1:35:27
Speaker 3: isis and at the precinct after being advised of his
1:35:31
Speaker 3: miranda rights and waiving those rights Coyumi said in recorded
1:35:35
Speaker 3: post arrest statements that he had watched ISIS propaganda on
1:35:39
Speaker 3: his phone and that his actions that day were partly
1:35:42
Speaker 3: inspired by ISIS. The complaint also detailed statements made by
1:35:47
Speaker 3: Emir Balat after his arrests En route to the NYPD precinct.
1:35:52
Speaker 3: Ballot made spontaneous statements without being questioned by NYPD officers
1:35:57
Speaker 3: that were captured on body worn camera footage. She said,
1:36:01
Speaker 3: this isn't a religion that just stands when people talk
1:36:04
Speaker 3: about the blessed name of the prophet.
1:36:06
Speaker 16: We take action.
1:36:07
Speaker 3: We take action as well as if I didn't do it,
1:36:11
Speaker 3: some will else, someone else will come and do it.
1:36:15
Speaker 3: And later, after waiving his rights, he requested paper and
1:36:18
Speaker 3: wrote a message declaring, in part, I pledge my allegiance
1:36:22
Speaker 3: to the Islamic state. Die in your rage, you kufar,
1:36:27
Speaker 3: now die in your rage is a commonly known ISIS slogan,
1:36:31
Speaker 3: and kufar is an Arabic term that refers to non believers.
1:36:36
Speaker 3: He also told investigators that he had hoped to carry
1:36:39
Speaker 3: out an attack even bigger than the Boston marathon bombing,
1:36:43
Speaker 3: which he noted resulted in only three deaths.
1:36:47
Speaker 16: These statements.
1:36:48
Speaker 3: It's as set forth in the complaint make clear that
1:36:50
Speaker 3: this was not random violence. This was a planned attack,
1:36:54
Speaker 3: motivated by extremist ideology and inspired by a violent foreign
1:37:00
Speaker 3: terrorist organization. The complaint alleges not only why the defendants acted,
1:37:05
Speaker 3: but how. Preliminary testing has determined that one of the
1:37:08
Speaker 3: devices contained triacetone triperoxide or TATP, also commonly referred to
1:37:15
Speaker 3: as mother of Satana, highly volatile explosive that has been
1:37:19
Speaker 3: used in multiple terrorist attacks over the last decade. As
1:37:23
Speaker 3: we have previously discussed, the NYPD identified a vehicle yesterday
1:37:27
Speaker 3: on East End Avenue that was linked to the defendants.
1:37:30
Speaker 3: Inside that vehicle, investigators recovered handwritten notes referencing TATP explosive
1:37:37
Speaker 3: and listing chemical ingredients for the type of explosive device
1:37:41
Speaker 3: used by the defendants on Saturday.
1:37:44
Speaker 4: All right, there you have that. That's from the NYPD
1:37:47
Speaker 4: Police Commissioner. Meanwhile, I'm sure we will be hearing from
1:37:51
Speaker 4: the mayor man Domie. Oh kids out there, they were
1:37:55
Speaker 4: shooting fireworks. Not a big deal, Not a big deal,
1:38:00
Speaker 4: Cuomo on WABC radio yesterday, saying this was a terrorist attack.
1:38:05
Speaker 4: No slamp on the wrist and a lot of people
1:38:08
Speaker 4: are enraged over the lack of outrage coming from city
1:38:11
Speaker 4: Hall right now. By the way, this guy, Amir Ballot
1:38:16
Speaker 4: is eighteen years old. His parents lived in a home
1:38:20
Speaker 4: in Pennsylvania valued at more than two million dollars. It's
1:38:24
Speaker 4: an actual mansion. We don't know if they own it
1:38:26
Speaker 4: or if they rent it, but that reporting coming from Fox.
1:38:29
Speaker 4: This other guy, Ibrahim Kyumi, nineteen years old, lived with
1:38:34
Speaker 4: his parents their home just six hundred little over six
1:38:39
Speaker 4: hundred thousand dollars. So again we're looking at two kids
1:38:43
Speaker 4: who came from well to do homes that have now
1:38:47
Speaker 4: been radicalized. And they told police, by the way, they
1:38:51
Speaker 4: were actually watching ISIS videos online. How do we deal
1:38:57
Speaker 4: with this? Ladies and gentlemen, do we deport the muscle?
1:39:00
Speaker 4: Nine oh one two six zero five nine two six
1:39:03
Speaker 4: our number, that's nine oh one two six zero five
1:39:06
Speaker 4: nine two six. Now, the other story we teased is
1:39:11
Speaker 4: coming out of Ohio, and this is this is absolute insanity.
1:39:16
Speaker 4: You have a school teacher who's going off on President
1:39:18
Speaker 4: Trump in the high school, Steubenville High School, and the
1:39:23
Speaker 4: teachers attacking Trump and attacking our military. Take a listen.
1:39:27
Speaker 11: The war with the run over the weekend, and the
1:39:31
Speaker 11: first the United States government slash military did was Paula's School,
1:39:36
Speaker 11: an all girls primary school that would be elementary level,
1:39:40
Speaker 11: killing more than fifty young girls and injuring one hundreds more.
1:39:46
Speaker 19: That's the United States Military, Ladies and gentlemen at the
1:39:49
Speaker 19: behest of Donald Trump. By the way, this would be
1:39:52
Speaker 19: a good time to remind all of you that fifteen
1:39:56
Speaker 19: United States veterans kill themselves every single day. Why let
1:40:02
Speaker 19: me repeat the last thing I just said.
1:40:05
Speaker 20: The first thing the United States military did when bombing
1:40:08
Speaker 20: Iran was during school hours, bomb a school with elementary
1:40:14
Speaker 20: age girls there, killing at least fifty.
1:40:23
Speaker 19: Peace president knew more.
1:40:26
Speaker 20: President or pedophile liar is actually more.
1:40:33
Speaker 4: Like it, right right, Because let me ask you something.
1:40:38
Speaker 20: If you're named thirty eight.
1:40:40
Speaker 19: Thousand times in a book, would you be the secondary
1:40:45
Speaker 19: or main character of that story? The main character? That's
1:40:51
Speaker 19: how many times he's mentioned in the Epstein file Sadies
1:40:54
Speaker 19: and gentlemen. And as a matter of fact, Epstein himself
1:40:57
Speaker 19: and an email in twenty nineteen, said that if Donald
1:41:01
Speaker 19: Trump felt cornered, he would bomb Iran.
1:41:04
Speaker 4: You could look that up yourself.
1:41:06
Speaker 2: You can look that up yourself.
1:41:08
Speaker 20: If he felt cornered he would bomb Iran.
1:41:12
Speaker 19: It's unwise to trap a rat in a corner, is
1:41:15
Speaker 19: what he said. Epstein said that about Donald Trump.
1:41:20
Speaker 4: Huh huh, folks, this is what's happening in your classrooms.
1:41:26
Speaker 4: Your tax dollars are paying for this. And I hate
1:41:30
Speaker 4: to say this, because not all school teachers are like
1:41:33
Speaker 4: this guy. Most. I would like to believe that most
1:41:37
Speaker 4: are good and decent people who just want to teach
1:41:39
Speaker 4: these kids and give them the skills they're going to
1:41:42
Speaker 4: need to be successful in life. However, a shocking number
1:41:47
Speaker 4: do not, and they would much rather shove an agenda
1:41:51
Speaker 4: down the throats of your kids. So, if you're wanting
1:41:53
Speaker 4: to know why so many people, so many kids in
1:41:55
Speaker 4: America hate this country, it's because the teachers like that guy.
1:42:01
Speaker 4: We're reaching out to the school to find out what
1:42:03
Speaker 4: the heck is going on. That guy has no business
1:42:06
Speaker 4: being around any children at all. He sounds like he
1:42:10
Speaker 4: needs a job over at PMS. Now, all right, let's
1:42:13
Speaker 4: go to the phones. North Carolina. Paul is on the line. Hi, Paul,
1:42:17
Speaker 4: what say you?
1:42:20
Speaker 21: First of all, I've called a couple of times. I
1:42:23
Speaker 21: love your show, I love what you're doing. Thank you
1:42:25
Speaker 21: so much for everything you do and your staff is
1:42:27
Speaker 21: so wonderful. I appreciate it.
1:42:28
Speaker 4: Thank you.
1:42:31
Speaker 21: The reference to the Muslims, should they be deported or not,
1:42:35
Speaker 21: my quick response is yes, there's one exception if they
1:42:40
Speaker 21: swear allegiance to the United States. And I know when
1:42:42
Speaker 21: they come, when they come to this country and they
1:42:44
Speaker 21: become naturalized, they do that. Now whether or not they
1:42:47
Speaker 21: actually believe it or not, and I don't know, but
1:42:51
Speaker 21: based on what happened in this country, this is yes,
1:42:55
Speaker 21: they should go back and let them do that stuff
1:42:58
Speaker 21: back home, be at home. In terms of just immigrations,
1:43:03
Speaker 21: I'm a little bit I love President Trump, I love
1:43:06
Speaker 21: him daily. If he had a fair turn to run,
1:43:09
Speaker 21: I would. I'm just a little bit disappointed at the immigrants.
1:43:12
Speaker 21: I'm not being deported like he indicated during his campaign, Uh,
1:43:18
Speaker 21: during the during the two years that he was campaigning
1:43:20
Speaker 21: for the presidency. Uh, it's just disappointing, frustrating.
1:43:25
Speaker 4: And Paul, you say you're disappointed and frustrated. What is
1:43:29
Speaker 4: it that that you want Trump to do that maybe
1:43:32
Speaker 4: he's not not doing.
1:43:35
Speaker 21: Get to poor faster, deport the immigrants, dailegal immigrants faster,
1:43:41
Speaker 21: and I don't want to sound like a war bonger,
1:43:44
Speaker 21: but if we're going to go in around and take
1:43:46
Speaker 21: care of business, we need to do it quickly. I
1:43:49
Speaker 21: remember he told Benjiman not in Yahoo back when they
1:43:53
Speaker 21: got attacked by the UH in Octoba seven. He discussed
1:44:00
Speaker 21: it with him and he told uh Uh the Prime minister,
1:44:05
Speaker 21: whatever you do, do it quickly. And this thing with
1:44:10
Speaker 21: the strength of moose is being freed by the Iranians.
1:44:14
Speaker 21: That's put a stock to that right now, because the
1:44:17
Speaker 21: price of oil is got crazy.
1:44:20
Speaker 4: Well, no doubt and no doubt about it. Look, gas
1:44:23
Speaker 4: prices are going to go up and then once the
1:44:25
Speaker 4: conflict is over, they'll they'll pop back down again. That's
1:44:28
Speaker 4: not a major deal. Here's here's a concern I have, Paul,
1:44:32
Speaker 4: we're not getting Look, first of all, if you remember
1:44:36
Speaker 4: they one of the one of the great things is
1:44:37
Speaker 4: no leaks from the Pentagon, right and and the I
1:44:41
Speaker 4: appreciate the fact that the White House is not using
1:44:44
Speaker 4: the media to give away our tactics. You know, the
1:44:48
Speaker 4: downside to that is we're not going to get the
1:44:51
Speaker 4: full story. We're only going to get the story that
1:44:53
Speaker 4: the White House or the Pentagon wants us to get
1:44:56
Speaker 4: and every administration is going to put their spin on it.
1:44:59
Speaker 4: So we really don't know how well things are going
1:45:02
Speaker 4: or they're not going. We don't know that. I will
1:45:06
Speaker 4: say that I think a lot of people are going
1:45:08
Speaker 4: to see through for example, we decide to cut bait
1:45:12
Speaker 4: and and just leave it where it is. I think
1:45:15
Speaker 4: I think where everybody's going to understand that that was
1:45:18
Speaker 4: a political decision. Look, we already we've already started the bombings,
1:45:23
Speaker 4: and we've got to finish this. We just have to
1:45:25
Speaker 4: finish it.
1:45:26
Speaker 21: Paul, Yeah, and I agree, and Age, I just get
1:45:34
Speaker 21: to think that happened in New York.
1:45:37
Speaker 4: Yeah, Look, Paul, here's the thing Trump's got to focus
1:45:41
Speaker 4: on on the homeland, and there there has to I mean,
1:45:44
Speaker 4: we should have already had a press conference, and look
1:45:46
Speaker 4: we're going to get one this afternoon. Maybe the President
1:45:48
Speaker 4: talks about it. Uh, but but we've got to deal
1:45:51
Speaker 4: with this because this is really the second terrorist attack
1:45:55
Speaker 4: on American soil since we went into Iran. When you
1:45:58
Speaker 4: throw in what happened down in Austin, Texas, so you
1:46:02
Speaker 4: know the I hear you. And again the President is
1:46:05
Speaker 4: going to have to start delivering on the immigration numbers,
1:46:09
Speaker 4: and maybe with new leadership that'll happen. I don't know,
1:46:12
Speaker 4: because Mark Wayne Mullen is more of a guy and
1:46:16
Speaker 4: Tom Tillis gave gave away that he spilled the tea
1:46:18
Speaker 4: on this. Tom Tillis said that he likes Mark Wayne
1:46:22
Speaker 4: Mullen because Mullen understands it's not about quantity, it's about quality.
1:46:27
Speaker 4: In other words, they want the really bad criminal illegals
1:46:30
Speaker 4: to go. Everybody else they want to give a pass.
1:46:33
Speaker 4: So we're I think we're all going to have to
1:46:35
Speaker 4: wrap our heads around the idea that Trump is not
1:46:38
Speaker 4: going to be known at the end of the day
1:46:40
Speaker 4: as the deportation President. Paul got to run. Thank you
1:46:45
Speaker 4: for that call. Nine oh one two six zero five
1:46:48
Speaker 4: nine two six. Let's go to Mike in Memphis, Tennessee. Mike,
1:46:53
Speaker 4: what's on your mind?
1:46:55
Speaker 18: Hey, greedtod real quick.
1:46:56
Speaker 8: Uh.
1:46:57
Speaker 18: Earlier you referenced that people need to make a pledge
1:47:01
Speaker 18: of allegiance to the United States or to America, and
1:47:04
Speaker 18: I would advise you to relook into that because the
1:47:07
Speaker 18: United States has in many of their documents in agreement
1:47:10
Speaker 18: that the successors to the United States or assignees receive
1:47:14
Speaker 18: all of the property and rights that they've required. So
1:47:17
Speaker 18: anybody pledging allegiance to the United States would, in fact,
1:47:21
Speaker 18: if it goes into receivership to the globalist bankers, be
1:47:24
Speaker 18: in effect sub subjects of the globalist bankers.
1:47:29
Speaker 4: Well, okay, jeez, okay, Look, here's the deal. Somebody becomes
1:47:33
Speaker 4: a citizen, they have to take the oath of allegiance,
1:47:36
Speaker 4: and part of that oath they have to renounce all
1:47:39
Speaker 4: allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, state, or sovereignty.
1:47:46
Speaker 4: All right, So and if they're not doing that, and
1:47:48
Speaker 4: clearly these guys did not do that because they pledged
1:47:51
Speaker 4: their allegiance to ices, they gotta they gotta go. They
1:47:54
Speaker 4: gotta go, Mike got I gotta I gotta go, Gotta run.
1:47:57
Speaker 4: Thanks to the call. Nine oh one to two six
1:48:00
Speaker 4: zero five nine two six. This is the Todd Stern Show,
1:48:13
Speaker 4: all right, just to give you the lay of the land,
1:48:15
Speaker 4: and we'll be following all of this on news Max's Afternoon.
1:48:18
Speaker 4: A President speaking from the golf club at four thirty
1:48:22
Speaker 4: this afternoon, then the President holding a press conference at
1:48:25
Speaker 4: five thirty this afternoon. You can expect the President to
1:48:28
Speaker 4: make a lot of news at this at this evening
1:48:32
Speaker 4: press conference. You'll be able to watch all of it
1:48:34
Speaker 4: on Newsmax. I also watched the Todd Stern Show on
1:48:38
Speaker 4: Newsmax as well. All Right, we had an opportunity to
1:48:42
Speaker 4: sit down with Texas State Senator Steve Toath. He did
1:48:47
Speaker 4: a tremendous job upsetting Dan Crenshaw for the republic and
1:48:52
Speaker 4: the Republican primary congressional primary. Let's take a listen to
1:48:56
Speaker 4: that conversation. I'm curious, what would you say led to
1:49:01
Speaker 4: Dan Crenshaw's downfall here?
1:49:03
Speaker 22: Dan Crenshaw, Todd, I can't put it any other way
1:49:07
Speaker 22: than that. I mean, he was his own worst enemy.
1:49:09
Speaker 22: He was he was our greatest asset in this thing.
1:49:13
Speaker 22: It seemed like every time he opened his mouth he
1:49:16
Speaker 22: just created more acrimony and more troubles for himself. It's
1:49:21
Speaker 22: it's really amazing. This is a really gifted guys, really
1:49:25
Speaker 22: smart man. I can't think and I and I think
1:49:28
Speaker 22: I think all Americans feel this way about Dan. We
1:49:30
Speaker 22: thank him for the service that he gave our nation
1:49:34
Speaker 22: as a Navy seal, but once he got to Washington,
1:49:38
Speaker 22: he just became part of the problem. And this is
1:49:41
Speaker 22: the problem that we see all you know, with people
1:49:44
Speaker 22: that joined that come all the time, they sound like
1:49:47
Speaker 22: the second coming of Ronald Reagan or Donald Trump, and
1:49:49
Speaker 22: as soon as they get there, they just become part
1:49:52
Speaker 22: of the problem.
1:49:53
Speaker 4: And it's sadly.
1:49:57
Speaker 22: Dan is an incredibly gifted man, but he's just unhappy
1:50:02
Speaker 22: and angry, and anybody that tries to question him, he
1:50:06
Speaker 22: just lashes out at him. And you know, whether it's
1:50:08
Speaker 22: Tucker Carlson or whoever, or whoever, it just Dan becomes
1:50:15
Speaker 22: their worst enemy. It's just overnight.
1:50:18
Speaker 10: I know.
1:50:19
Speaker 4: There's another big race there in Texas that's garnering a
1:50:22
Speaker 4: lot of national attention. Of course, the Senate race that
1:50:24
Speaker 4: now we have a runoff between John Cornyn, the incumbent,
1:50:28
Speaker 4: and Ken Paxton, who is the attorney general. President Trump
1:50:32
Speaker 4: says he's going to endorse somebody in the primary, and
1:50:35
Speaker 4: whoever the person is that does not get the endorsement,
1:50:39
Speaker 4: the President says that that person should drop out. Do
1:50:42
Speaker 4: you agree with the President here?
1:50:44
Speaker 22: This is a tough one for the very simple reason
1:50:47
Speaker 22: that Ken should stay in this for the very simple
1:50:51
Speaker 22: reason that he stands the best chance of winning. You know,
1:50:55
Speaker 22: there's a reason why the Texas border went from bright
1:50:58
Speaker 22: blue to bright red and that was because Donald Trump
1:51:01
Speaker 22: is a man of action. And I've said this once,
1:51:04
Speaker 22: I've said it a one hundred times. The problem with
1:51:05
Speaker 22: the Republicans is that when we win elections, we take office.
1:51:08
Speaker 22: When Democrats win elections, they wheel power. And that's the
1:51:11
Speaker 22: single greatest thing that people respect about Trump and that
1:51:16
Speaker 22: is what is that is what is propelling our party
1:51:19
Speaker 22: to victory. Ken Pax is that kind of man, He's
1:51:23
Speaker 22: that kind of politician. And No, unfortunately, unfortunately Cornyn is
1:51:29
Speaker 22: not that kind of person. He doesn't compel anybody towards greatness,
1:51:33
Speaker 22: he doesn't inspire anybody. And I think we're going to
1:51:36
Speaker 22: lose with John corn no matter who gets behind him.
1:51:39
