Is the era of deception in CA education coming to a close · Cultural Wars | America Out Loud News

0:23
Well, I trust everybody had a glorious, glorious Christmas holiday.
0:28
I know we did.
0:29
It's such a great time of the year, isn't it?
0:31
Uh I mean, here in Michigan, it is we got hammered with a snowstorm last week.
0:41
I mean, just hammered.
0:43
We had a couple days off of school.
0:45
And here we are.
0:47
This week, there's no snow on the ground at all.
0:51
I mean, we we go from getting hammered and not having school for two days to just uh it just that the weather here is something else.
1:00
So we we had this warm spell and then a lot of rain.
1:04
And with with the warmth and the rain, it it washed all the snow away.
1:09
So here we are.
1:11
Um snow.
1:13
I mean, it's it snowed a little bit, but it's nice to look out on this glorious sunny day.
1:18
Look at the green grass out the window.
1:21
Uh it's just a beautiful time, whether there's snow on the ground or not.
1:25
This is just a beautiful time of the year.
1:29
It's it's a time where we reflect, where we pause for a moment, where we we consider where we are in life, uh, individually, collectively, as a group, as a nation.
1:45
It's a time for us to reflect on our faith, things that we believe in, the things that that we hold dear.
1:54
There's just a beautiful time.
1:56
And I hope it's it's a beautiful time for you.
2:00
I I hope you are experiencing this season in in a way that is meaningful, in a way that is giving you rest and comfort and peace and growth.
2:16
I think all of the things that this time of the year offers to us.
2:22
And I I do I know that there are people who are remembering perhaps those who are not at the table this year, perhaps going through loss, and I trust that you're able to find strength during this this time of the year, that you're able to find hope and peace and joy and comfort, because truly it's this is what the season brings.
2:53
Hope and peace and joy and comfort.
2:56
And it's just an absolutely lovely time.
2:59
It's a great time to be alive, and I'm happy to be alive here with you behind the microphone.
3:04
I'm grateful that you're here.
3:06
I'm grateful that you're a part of this audience as we as we wind this calendar year down.
3:11
This is our we're into our third year here on the network.
3:14
And I'm just I'm grateful that you're a part of it.
3:18
I'm I'm grateful that you're that you're here and and that you're perhaps at Substack.

3:37

3:46

3:49

4:48
And that's that's almost half.
4:53
It's a really it's a decent deal.
4:55
And it's I mean, it's inexpensive anyway.
4:59
It boils down to like eight bucks a month.
5:01
It's pretty cheap.
5:03
I shouldn't use the word cheap because the product itself is excellent, but the cost for it, it's inexpensive.
5:11
And if you enjoy American history, if you enjoy reading about American history, if you enjoy uh reading about things that make education better, really, things that make our lives better.
5:25
That that's the purpose of the publication.
5:28
It's a pursuit of of good true of what's good, what's true, and uh what's beautiful in American history and in American education.
5:43
We are in the hunt for the good, the true, and the beautiful.
5:49
And we would love to have you join us over there.
5:51
Go to Substack, Substack.com and you can search the Dean's list.
5:55
We're there.
5:56
You'll find us.
5:57
And again, if you if you get on before the end of this this year, midnight, December 31st, you'll get a 40% discount.
6:07
It's it's just it's a really good deal.
6:08
And we'd love to have you join us over there.
6:11
So what's on the docket for today?
6:13
There is there's some things I want to get into.
6:17
And I I don't know, I might not have time to get through it all today.
6:22
Of course, we've got we've got the entire year ahead of us, the rest of the year.
6:27
We've got three days ahead of us to get into what we're gonna get into.
6:30
Did you see this note here though?
6:34
This news report that a federal judge struck down California's policies hiding gender switches from parents.
6:42
It's about time.
6:44
It's about time the judiciary showed up for the American public.
6:48
It's about time the judiciary showed up for American families.
6:53
It's about time the judiciary showed up for the inalienable right of a parent to raise their child in the way they see fit.
7:06
And the school district should not be hiding things from the parents that they know the parents would disagree with.
7:13
It should not be happening.
7:14
And this federal judge here in California has struck it down, or at least struck down the California policy.
7:21
I want to take some time and get into that that piece a little bit.
7:26
Also, I I noted that uh the uh Department of Health has decided that they're going to cut funding for transgender-related procedures in children, and specifically they are getting millions of dollars in grants to the American Academy of Pediatrics.
7:51
Did you see this?
7:53
I mean, this is a glorious thing.
7:56
We the past couple of years, we've talked about the American Academy of Pediatrics and how they do not have pediatrics at heart.
8:07
They they do not have the best interest of children medically speaking.
8:12
At the the core or the center of their of their values, what lies at the core and center of their values is the almighty dollar, and they realize that if they promote this despicable practice of gender mutilation, that there's a lot of money in it, and people can be duped.
8:36
Low information voters can be duped.
8:40
The public education system in America has done its job admirably admirably, uh, admirably.
8:47
Can I say it?
8:48
Can I spit it out today?
8:50
They've done their job well in terms of dumbing down the American population.
8:56
That's been the objective.
8:58
If you've not been paying attention, then you're not aware that that's been the objective to dumb down the population.
9:06
So the population can then be overrun.
9:10
I know, I know you don't want to believe it.
9:13
I know you don't.
9:14
I don't want to believe it, but there's just too much evidence supporting that theory.
9:22
Again, we've documented it here.
9:24
We've spent literally hours upon hours.
9:27
And every show, by the way, is in podcast.
9:29
You can go find it.
9:31
Wherever you listen to your podcasts, I don't know, Spotify, iTunes, Pandora, I don't know.
9:38
You can go to America Outloud.news, go to my show page.
9:42
Every single show is there.
9:44
Every show without fail.
9:46
Without fail.
9:47
And there is a uh there's a litany.
9:51
There's a just a ton of documented evidence that the objective has been to dumbest.
10:00
Down.
10:02
And it's my hope.
10:03
It truly is.
10:04
It's my hope that our eyes remain opened.
10:09
Not only that they become open, but that they remain open.
10:14
This is an important thing for us to be paying attention to.
10:18
And I hope we're doing it.
10:19
I know this audience is doing it.
10:21
But just people in general.
10:24
I talked about this report a few weeks ago.
10:27
And I spoke to Malcolm on his Sunday show, his Sunday News magazine, Viewpoint this Sunday.
10:34
We we had this conversation about the NEA.
10:39
And they're celebrating recent school board victories coming out of November.
10:47
And how they promoted and bragged about.
11:23
And the NEA is celebrating this.
11:26
They are out there banging their chests and promoting their abilities to get progressive school board members elected.
11:37
And part of the the rationale is that Americans are just they're up against voter fatigue.
11:46
They're just tired.
11:47
They're tired of the fight.
11:49
And they're just going to roll over and they're going to let they're going to let come what may.
11:54
If progressives want to be on the school board, then so be it.
11:59
The there were individuals running on uh running for school board seats that were running against this whole idea of indoctrination, and those individuals lost.
12:12
They lost.
12:13
And so the NEA is out here saying, yes, we've done it.
12:16
We have finally convinced the American public that indoctrination is the answer.
12:22
Indoctrination is the key because we've got case in point people running for school board seats.
12:31
And their main platform is no DEI, no critical race theory, no gender indoctrination, blah, blah, blah.
12:38
And those people lost.
12:40
So the NEA is they're out there banging their chests.
12:43
And it's my hope.
12:46
It's my hope that that's not the case.
12:48
It's my hope that we have not turned our back to the cause.
12:54
It's my hope that the only reason these progressives have perhaps won in these districts is because there's enough families that have pulled out of the districts, and they're just like, you run you run your school boards, how you're going to run them.
13:10
We've pulled our kids, and we are going to educate them in the way we see fit.
13:15
And that's my hope.
13:15
Now I'm not even happy about that, because I think we need to still be engaged in and local school board politics, as it were.
13:26
I I think we need to be aware of who we are electing to school school board seats, whether we have children in the local public school districts or not.
13:38
I think it's in our best interest as Americans.
13:42
It's in our best interest to ensure that the country survives down the road.
13:48
It survives in the future, and therefore we need to be electing people that are going to run our our local school districts that actually actually care about education because we're going to graduate students and they're going to be in charge of the country one day.
14:06
Or at least they're going, they're going to be voting for people who are in charge of the country, at the very least.
14:46
And we have to know where we stand.
14:48
And these are important things.
14:50
Listen, here we are.
14:52
We're at the end of the year.
14:53
We're still a couple of days.
14:54
If you're listening live, we're still at a couple of days here before the year is out.
15:00
And if you're still looking for a place to maybe give a donation to, to maybe offset your tax burden, or maybe you just you want a place to give just because you're charitable and you enjoy giving.
15:20
And he said, I normally don't give to charity, but uh, but he gave us a good check.
15:25
It was a it was a substantial check.
15:29
And even though he normally doesn't give to charity, in his words, he believes in the cause that that we are involved in at Waterbrook Christian Academy.
15:38
And if you here at the end of the year are looking for a place that you want to donate your money to, a place that believes in America, a place that is actively involved in educating students now to better their lives now, and then therefore to better the country in the future, then uh we would welcome your donation.
16:05
We would love to have you partner with us.
16:07
We'd love to have you come on board and join us on the front lines.
16:12
You can go to Waterbrook CA.org, and there's right there at the top, you'll see the support tab.
16:18
Click the support tab, scroll down, you can text to give.
16:21
You can you can click the the donate now, you can you can give a one-time donation.
16:27
You can get on to a monthly where you're you know, where you're donating every month.
16:32
We would love to have that happen.
16:34
And any amount, it doesn't matter the amount.
16:37
You know, this individual that gave me a check a couple days ago, it was a substantial amount.
16:42
But 10, 20, 50 bucks, it all goes a long way.
16:47
And it goes to a cause that is beautiful.
16:53
And that cause is educating students in Judeo-Christian American values, educating the student in virtue, and giving them a deep understanding of what it means to be an American, because it means something.
17:13
It means something very specific to be an American.
17:16
We've talked about this, you know, even recently.
17:20
I've I've got some pieces on the on my page, and even in Substack that talk about what does it mean to be an American?
17:27
And if you miss those programs, you can you can go to Substack, you can find it.
17:32
You can go to my show page here at America Outloud.news.
17:36
You can read about it.
17:38
Uh it means something very special.
17:43
You can be you can be an American by um by citizenship.
17:49
You can also be un-American.
17:51
You know, you can't you can't be un-French.
17:54
You can't be un-Italian, you can't be unbritain or un-German.
17:57
You can't be un-African, but you can be un-American.
18:02
Because being American means upholding particular values.
18:08
It means embracing particular philosophical ideas.
18:14
Ideas such as we were created equally and endowed by our creator with certain inalienable rights.
18:24
That that's a that's a particular philosophy.
18:26
And it's a philosophy that this country was founded upon.
18:31
It's foundational.
18:33
If you choose to not believe those things, that would make you un-American.
18:38
And we're we are unique in this regard, that you can't be on any other country.
18:43
You can't be un-Russian.
18:45
You can be un-American.
18:47
That's just a special place.
18:48
And I love it.
18:49
I love being here, and I I love living here.
18:52
And I love educating students to love being here and to love living here and to love the country.
18:59
There's a there's a particular type of education that we do at Waterbrook, and we refer to it as soul formation.
19:07
We want to form and craft their souls to be good individuals, to be good people, to be good humans, to be good American citizens.
19:17
And we believe it's an education unlike any other.
19:22
We would put it up against any education in the country.
19:26
We are that fond of it.
19:28
We believe in it that much.
19:31
And if you believe in it as well, then by all means, come alongside of us, join us.
19:37
Make it, I don't know, make it part of your philanthropic philanthropic goals.
19:42
Do you have philanthropic goals?
19:44
I know a lot of people do.
19:45
They have philanthropic goals.
19:46
There's particular particular things and places that they want their their dollar to go to.
19:54
And so I invite you, you know, I invite you to make make classical education, a part.
20:00
Of your philanthropic goals.
20:02
And you can start by joining the work that we do at Waterbrook Christian Academy.
20:07

24:19
America Outloud dot news is that plays to awaken your heart, soul, and mind to the outbow truth.
24:35
Before we get into this piece on this federal judge telling California, sorry, you can't have these policies that are going to hide important information from parents before we get into that.
24:48
I think it's important that we dive into an annual history class.
24:52
I mean, isn't that don't you feel the urge, the need?
24:57
Yes, exactly.
24:58
I do too.
24:59
I just, I think, I think history class awaits, because this time of the year, there is rich history, very rich history that we need to dive into.
25:11
Matter of fact, last week, this would have been our last Substack piece of the year.
25:18
If you've not been to Substack, our very last piece of the year, centered around a beautiful Christmas time story.
25:26
A Christmas time story, not only of perseverance, but one that really promotes the power of prayer.
25:35
And it took place right around right around here, right around now.
25:40
Uh World War II, the Battle of the Bulge, and how that uh, how that came to a to a climax, as it were, how it how it came to uh to an apex in Baston, Belgium, and just the story there.
26:00
The things that things that you didn't know about Patton, I don't know, maybe I'll get into it, because it's a great history class.
26:06
But what I would like to point out, since today's December 29th, I would like to point out the 1940 Fireside Chat, December 29th that FDR gave.
26:18
Now, FDR, love him, hate him.
26:21
He's not my favorite president.
26:24
But he gave these fireside chats that coalesced the country, brought people together.
26:32
It was a masterful move, a masterful stroke of genius.
26:37
Don't know if it was his own or somebody in his camp, somebody on his team.
26:43
But these fireside chats became stuff that people looked forward to.
26:48
They wanted to hear the president.
26:50
Kind of had a reassuring voice, kind of a grandfatherly sort of voice.
26:56
But here on this night, December 29th, 1940, Bill Bennett describes that theaters and restaurants across the country emptied out because people expected FDR to be coming on the radio soon.
27:12
Nobody was out entertaining themselves.
27:16
Restaurants weren't full of clattering dishes and silverware, and restaurants uh or movie theaters weren't full of moviegoers munching on popcorn and drinking coca's and other snacks.
27:32
They were all at home next to their radio.
27:36
As FDR delivered one of his most famous fireside chats.
27:41
He said in this in this particular chat on December 29th, 1940, that never before since Jamestown in Plymouth Rock has our American civilization been in such danger as it was in that very moment.
28:00
I mean, that that's a bold statement.
28:02
1940.
28:05
His exact quote: never before since Jamestown in Plymouth Rock has our American civilization been in such danger as now.
28:13
And America hadn't even entered the war yet.
28:17
But but Great Britain, uh, the Greek islands, the Chinese, they were the few nations left that were struggling against against the Axis assault, as it were.
28:32
FDR said that if Great Britain were to fall, that Americans would be living at the point of a gun in this radio address.
28:43
Of course, that very night the Germans were bombing London like there was no tomorrow.
28:49
I mean, London itself was engulfed in flames that very night.
28:53
And FDR said, if Great Britain falls, we're going to be living at a gunpoint.
28:59
This this thing, his prediction was the war would come to the to the coastland on either side.
29:07
We were kind of hemmed in.
29:10
He said there can be no appeasement with ruthlessness.
29:14
There can be no reasoning with an incendiary bomb.
29:19
He said, We know that a nation can have peace with the Nazis only at the price of total surrender.
29:26
That's it.
29:28
That is your that's your peace treaty.
29:31
You surrender.
29:33
Either you surrender or you face total annihilation.
29:39
He said, We must apply ourselves to our task with the same resolution, the same sense of urgency, the same spirit of patriotism and sacrifice as we would show if we were at war.
29:52
Because surrender was the only was the only parlay the the Germans were interested in.
30:00
Those were their terms.
30:01
You surrender.
30:03
Matter of fact, the the substack story that I wrote about, the last of the year is about this very thing, about the Germans coming and approaching General McAloff and Best On Belgium and giving him an ultimatum.
30:24
They said, look, either you surrender the 101st Airborne Division, or you face total annihilation.
30:32
You're surrounded, you're outmanned, you're outgunned, and you you're out of hope.
30:37
So just surrender now.
30:40
And McCullough gets this.
30:43
He gets the these terms, and he says, Oh, nuts.
30:46
He said, a surrender on nuts.
30:49
That's just that's the American spirit.
30:52
That's the American attitude.
30:53
Well, you want me to surrender?
30:55
Oh, nuts.
30:56
And so he's, you know, he's contemplating what he's going to say to them.
31:00
He knows he's not going to surrender, but he just doesn't know how to go about and word it.
31:04
And one of his one of his officers said, Well, just tell him what you told us.
31:09
Nuts.
31:10
And that's that's what he that was his one word reply.
31:14
Dear German commander, colon.
31:19
Nuts, exclamation mark.
31:21
That was it.
31:22
It was a one-word reply.
31:24
Because they said you give us your reply in two hours.
31:28
And it better be a reply that includes the word surrender in it.
31:32
Or you are going to be annihilated.
31:36
No one's coming to your defense.
31:40
And there was some truth in their statement that no one's coming to your defense because the weather just the weather was atrocious.
31:48
Our American bombers were grounded.
31:50
There was no air support.
31:52
Patton had been trying to reach and break the German lines here at the bulge.
31:59
And the weather just, he was just muddied down.
32:03
Couldn't move.
32:05
Which makes this story so miraculous.
32:08
So back to Mukuloff.
32:10
He gets this ultimatum.
32:15
And his one word reply is nuts.
32:18
And so one of the just makes me laugh.
32:20
So one of his officers says, I volunteered to take the reply to the German soldiers, officers, commanders, whoever who were waiting for the reply.
32:33
They were off somewhere blindfolded, waiting for this reply.
32:37
And one of his officers said, I'll take the reply to them.
32:42
So he takes McCullough's reply to the German commanders.
32:47
And I love this.
32:49
I just love this.
32:49
He says, Listen, you know, gives him the reply.
32:53
It says, Dear German commanders nuts.
32:55
He said, Look, if you don't know what nuts means in just English vernacular, it means go to hell.
33:00
That's that's what it means.
33:03
It just means go to hell.
33:05
And they're like, really, this is your reply.
33:09
But one of them, as they were leaving, mumbled something about many Americans are going to die.
33:14
We're going to kill many Americans, just so you're aware of that.
33:19
Just just so you know what your reply has bought you.
33:21
It's bought you death.
33:23
It's bought you doom.
33:24
It's brought you destruction.
33:26
This was December 22nd.
33:29
December 22nd.
33:32
And there was, again, as I mentioned, because of the the weather.
33:37
There was no air cover.
33:39
There was, you know, Patton couldn't get there for reinforcements.
33:43
It was abysmal.
33:44
And they, the Germans unleashed fury.
33:48
They unleashed something ferocious.
33:51
And they basically leveled the town.
33:54
They didn't care if you were military or civilian.
33:57
They leveled the town.
34:00
They began an onslaught, which took place for three or four days until Patton could get there.
34:09
But here's the backstory.
34:11
Earlier in December, matter of fact, I think I'm going to pull this up because the uh the back and forth that Patton has here between himself and the chaplains is just uh I absolutely love it.
34:31
And I want to um I want to get it right.
34:35
So I'm going to pull it up here because it's just so good.
34:38
So the backstory is this a few months, not a few months, a few weeks earlier, early in December.
34:46
Patton uh gathers his chaplains together.
34:50
I think this was, I think the date here is December 8.
34:54
And the weather is horrible.
34:56
And he asks his head chaplain, a man by the name of James O'Neill.
35:00
He he just asks him, he asks one question.
35:04
He said, Do you have a good prayer for the weather?
35:07
He said, Chaplain, listen, we've got to do something about this weather.
35:12
It hasn't stopped raining in weeks.
35:14
And if it doesn't, we're not going to be able to win this war.
35:18
Do you have a good prayer for the weather?
35:22
Chaplin, you know, goes back, looks through all of his prayer books, doesn't find anything that pertains to the weather.
35:29
So he types out an original prayer.
35:32
Are you ready?
35:32
Here it is.
35:33
Here's the original prayer.
35:35
Almighty and most merciful father.
35:38
We humbly beseech thee of thy great goodness to restrain these moderate rains with which we have had to contend.
35:48
Grant us fair weather for battle.
35:51
Graciously hearken to us as soldiers who call upon thee that armed with thy power, we may advance from victory to victory and curse the oppression and wickedness of our enemies and establish thy justice among men and nations.
36:08
That was it.
36:09
Couple sentences, one paragraph.
36:12
Patton loved it.
36:14
Absolutely loved the prayer.
36:16
So he told the chaplain, have this prayer printed up on cards.
36:22
Enough cards to be passed out to every single man in his third army.
36:29
And then some.
39:16
December 22nd, the very day McCulloch is getting his demand for surrender.
39:27
And this is what happens when a demand for surrender meets a demand for prayer.
39:33
The weather clears.
39:35
The weather instantaneously clears.
39:37
So here's what Patents uh Jutant Colonel Harkins had to say.
39:44
He wrote this later on.
39:46
He said, on the 23rd, the day after the prayer was issued, the weather cleared and remained perfect for about six days.
39:54
Enough to allow the allies to break the backbone of the
40:00
Ronstead offensive and turn a temporary setback into a crushing defeat for the enemy.
40:08
Ah if that is not I don't know, if that isn't a story that just gets you, then I don't know what's gonna get you.
40:18
That is such an illustration to me of the power of prayer, the power of and this was uh 1943, 1943, was it 4340?
40:36
No, it's I'm sorry, it was 44, 1944.
40:39
Four years after this December 29 fire side chat given to us by by Roosevelt, wherein you know, he said, look, the uh a nation can only have peace with the Nazis if if the price has total surrender.
40:59
That's it.
41:02
But there was a man called Patton who believed that there was this circuit completed.
41:10
This this power circuit was completed through prayer.
41:16
He said, if we all pray, it will be like plugging in on a current whose source is in heaven.
41:22
I believe that prayer completes that circuit.
41:24
It is power, and you know, Patton isn't uh he's not often portrayed as a praying man, yet he firmly believed that prayer completed the power circuit from heaven to earth, and his beliefs were confirmed on a cold December day in Belgium when all of a sudden the rain stopped, the weather broke, the air cleared.
41:50
It cleared long enough for American bombers to bring in support, and it cleared long enough for the forten's third army to break the back of the Germans.
42:03
And I just, you know, it's a it's a history class that we we just we can't do without.
42:10
We just we can't do without it.
42:12
And there's other history classes that we love to go to annually this time of the year.
42:18
One of our favorites is, of course, the crossing of the Delaware.
42:21
Oh man, one of our absolute favorites, victory or death.
42:26
Victory or death, that was the code word.
42:28
That's the code word that Washington gave.
42:32
I don't know, maybe should we have another history class on the other side of the break?
42:36
I really want to get to this piece though, for out of California.
42:38
We'll decide.
42:39
We'll decide when we get there.
42:40
All right, kids, more to come on the other side.

46:34
I don't want to inundate you with just too much history.
46:37
That last history class, though, in segment two, if you're just joining us, definitely catch segment two in the podcast, because that history class is just one of my favorites.
46:48
And maybe it'll be one of yours.
46:50
Okay, but I want to get into this case out of California, Judge Roger T.
46:54
Benitez.
46:56
He is the U.S.
46:57
district court for the Southern District of California.
47:01
He came up to the plate here.
47:02
And he crushed this.
47:04
He crushed it over the fence for parental rights.
47:07
If you support and believe in parental rights, you are very happy with what Benitas wrote in his 52-page decision entering a permanent injunction that bars California state officials from enforcing particular policies.
47:28
Well, what policies are we talking about?
47:30
Among the policies and rules, uh, are ones that prohibit teachers from telling parents when their children begin going by a different name or a different gender, and force the teacher to then use those new names and new pronouns when the parents are not around.
47:50
But when the parents are around, you gotta call them, you gotta call the kids by the names and the pronouns that the parents gave them, the names the parents gave them and the pronouns that were given to them at birth based upon their gender.
48:08
In other words, when parents are in the room, you've got to use accurate grammatically correct pronouns.
48:15
But when parents aren't in the room, then you've got to call the child what the child wants to be called.
48:19
These are the convoluted policies in California that Judge Benitez said, uh-uh.
48:25
No, uh-uh.
48:27
We are we are we're we're done with this stupidity.
48:31
The state's desire, here's what he wrote.
48:33
The state's desire to protect vulnerable children from harassment and discrimination is laudable.
48:39
I mean, it's good, that's what we want.
48:41
We think that the state should be involved, protecting vulnerable children from harassment and discrimination.
48:50
However, he said, the parental exclusion policies create a trifecta of harm.
48:57
They harm the child who needs parental guidance and possibly mental health intervention to determine if the incongruence is organic or whether it is the result of bullying or peer pressure or a fleeting impulse.
49:11
Finally, finally, we have we have someone in a robe on the bench who's going to recognize that young people, whether elementary, middle school, or high school, might have a fleeting impulse.
49:27
And that fleeting impulse shouldn't necessarily be captured by an adult in the building and made to become truth.
49:37
I mean, it's not in this case, and especially in the case of gender ideology.
49:43
If you're wanting to flip a different gender, it's not truth.
49:48
But we have adults capturing these fleeting impulses and presenting them as truth to the hearts and minds of the kids.
49:56
And yes, that is a trifecta of harm.
50:00
Benitez has out here crushing it.
50:03
But he wasn't done there.
50:04
He said the policies harm the parents by depriving them of the long recognized 14th Amendment right to care.
50:12
To guide and make health care decisions for their children and by substantially burdening many parents' First Amendment right to train their children and their sincerely held religious beliefs.
50:26
Oh man.
50:28
Oh, just the sound of common sense.
50:31
The sound of common sense is such a beautiful thing.
50:35
Don't you just feel better just reading it and just hearing it?
50:39
Oh, the sound of common sense.
50:42
Lawyers, of course, for the state said that the policies are very much rooted in common sense.
50:50
They're a part of providing a safe learning environment.
50:53
And making sure that children can learn without fear of being outed to their parents before they're ready.
51:04
Oh, those evil parents.
51:05
I mean, that the child knows what's best for the child.
51:08
And why those parents are evil?
51:11
And the child doesn't feel ready for the parents to learn yet.
51:15
And so the benevolent school district comes along and caters to the needs of the child.
51:26
Um the judge said that interest is too broad and not narrowly tailored to respect parental rights.
51:34
His exact quote is in articulating their interest, he said, the state defendants completely ignore the fact that parents of students possess a free exercise right to direct a child's religious teachings.
51:48
You can't ignore that.
51:50
It doesn't matter what the child says.
51:52
You can't ignore the parents' right to direct their religious teachings.
51:57
The permanent injunction offered by the judge here includes language that bars any employee in California's education system, top to bottom.
52:08
It bars them from quote, misleading the parent or guardian of a minor child in the education system about their child's gender presentation at school.
52:20
Whether by uh any of the following number one, directly lying to the parent, can't do it.
52:26
Number two, preventing the parent from accessing educational records of the child, you can't do it.
52:33
Or number three, using a different set of preferred pronouns or names when speaking with the parents, other than what is being used at school.
52:43
Can't do it.
52:44
All right, this the era of deception in California education has come to a close.
52:52
I mean, I kind of like that.
52:55
The era of deception in California education has come to an immediate close.
53:04
And isn't it about time?
53:06
Isn't it about time that we had a judge that acknowledged common sense, acknowledged parental rights, acknowledged that kids are going to be kids and they're gonna they're they're gonna go through stuff.
53:20
And just because all of a sudden Johnny wants to be Janie doesn't mean that that fleeting thought should be captured.
53:28
Attorneys for the Thomas Moore Society, who are representing teachers in this case, because teachers don't, there's a lot of teachers who don't want to be put in this position.
53:39
They don't want to have to follow these policies of deception in order to keep their jobs.
53:45
They're not on board with this.
53:46
Look, not every public school teacher is on board with public school indoctrination.
53:51
California included, and these public school teachers are to be applauded, they're to be commended, they are to be celebrated and championed.
54:01
Talk about being on the front lines.
54:04
California of all places.
54:07
So attorneys for the Thomas Moore Society are representing some of these teachers.
54:12
And here's what Paula Jones, who is special counsel at the Thomas Moore Society.
54:18
Here's what Paula had to say.
54:20
I'm sorry, Paul.
54:21
Did I say Paula Jones?
54:23
I'm thinking Bill Clinton.
54:24
No, Paul Jonah.
54:26
I apologize, Mr.
54:27
Jonah.
54:28
Paul Jonah, here's what he had to say.
54:30
Maybe his name is Jana.
54:32
You know, I don't know.
54:33
We're going with we're gonna call him Paul.
54:36
Here's what Paula had to say.
54:38
The court's comprehensive ruling, granting summary judgment on all claims, protects all California parents, students, and teachers, and it restores sanity and common sense.
54:51
Amen.
54:52
Preacher, brother.
54:54
He continued, with this decisive ruling from Judge Benitez, all state and local school officials that mandate gender secrecy policies should cease all enforcement or face severe legal consequences.
55:09
And of course, wouldn't you know it?
55:11
California Attorney General Rob Bonta has filed an application to stay the injunction.
55:18
How dare Judge Benitez want to interject common sense here?
55:22
It's got to be stayed.
55:24
Here's what uh Banta's statement read.
55:28
We believe that the district court misapplied the law and that the decision will ultimately be reversed on appeal.
55:35
We are committed to securing school environments that allow transgender students to safely participate as their authentic selves while recognizing the important role that parents play in students, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
55:48
You don't recognize the important role that parents play in the lives of students when you claim that because the student wants to switch a different gender, they're acting as their authentic self.
56:01
You know, uh-uh.
56:03
That claim is convoluted.
56:06
It's just convoluted.
56:08
Their authentic self.
56:10
Give me a break.
56:13
Their biological existence is their authentic self.
56:17
Rob Bonta.
56:19
You buffoon.
56:21
I don't know.
56:21
I'm okay.
56:23
Be nice, Dean.
56:25
This is a buffoonery kind of statement.
56:27
It's a buffoonery statement.
56:29
All right.
56:30
Well, there it is, my friends.
56:32
The era of deception in California education is coming to a close.
56:37
And we are happy about it.
56:39
We are, we're happy about it.
56:40
These kids that go through this, they need help.
56:44
They absolutely need help and they need loving adults to come in and lead them and guide them through the help that's necessary.
56:54
And Banta over here.
56:56
He's not, he's not a part of that train.
56:58
I can tell you that right now.
56:59
All right, my friends, listen, thank you for joining me again.
57:02
I hope you had a beautiful Christmas.
57:04
I hope you're gonna have a fantastic new year.
57:07

57:19

57:26

57:30
