It's all next on Viewpoint this Sunday.
1:05
It is time to put away the bias, the lies and deceit and bring forth real talk from real people about real news, providing the out loud truth and capturing the essence of a new generation, all in a fast-paced tower.
1:22
This is Viewpoint this Sunday.
1:28
Welcome to the weekend news magazine.
1:58
This um the divide in our country uh is is getting a little more wicked, I think, and uh interesting uh numbers from Pew Research, but also you see the target with these uh National Guardsmen and what has taken place there, and of course the seditious six and the uh targeting of Ice Agents, National Guard law enforcement.
2:16
This has become a a pretty huge story.
2:18
Uh Trump uh again uh halts the uh uh some uh but puts a halt to some of the immigration from third world countries, specifically right up right up front here is the Afghan nationals in response to that story there.
2:29
Uh oh, I love this next one, the autopen that goes along with that image he's got in the White House there.
2:34
But uh, I don't know how he pulls this off or if it is pulled off, but he's uh uh negating all of those um uh uh uh partners and all these executive orders, basically, that have been signed from that.
2:46
Very, very fascinating.
2:47
And given thanks and all of that, a little bit later on the broadcast, we'll get on uh with uh Evangelist Alvita King will be on with us and excited to have her on always.
2:55
She's uh marvelous.
2:56
Um and uh some and uh you see that terror in Hong Kong, by the way.
3:00
That is pretty wicked.
3:01
I'll touch on that a little bit later in the program with her um pretty wild here.
3:05
Uh let's bring on here uh two wonderful, wonderful gentlemen.
3:08
Nate Kane is here.
3:09
He's a military veteran, an expert in uh cybersecurity.
3:12
And uh he was indeed an FBI whistleblower.
3:16
Uh fascinating background for Nate.
3:18
Uh he he worked extensively on election integrity against cybersecurity.
3:22
Uh he worked with Trump White House 2020, etc.
3:24
Uh his host every Tuesday, 7 p.m.
3:26
Eastern time, unleashed the political news hour on the network here.
3:30
And he does a whole lot of stuff out there with what Nate does uh uh that uh is just uh you know he's a patriot on the front lines, saving our country, right?
3:39
And uh another one of my just uh terrific uh guys here favorites, Brandon Wyckard is here as well.
3:44
Uh he's a geopolitical analyst, uh senior national security editor of the national interest.
3:51
Uh Branded as host of the National Security Hour every Wednesday at 8 p.m.
3:55
And uh, you know, the the these guys are just really best in class.
3:59
There's no doubt about it.
4:00
So let's not build their egos anymore, but let's get started here, guys, and talk about uh the uh the attacks and violence, uh the political divide.
4:08
Uh this has been going on for some time.
4:10
It's not a new story.
4:12
Uh we see, I mean, it's right out in the open here.
4:14
The ICE agents, uh, and this is mayors, governors, congress people.
4:18
This is oh boy, it's about everybody.
4:21
Um, you know, talking bad about the National Guard law enforcement, uh, the Seditious Six, we see what happened there.
4:28
In the meantime, Sarah Beckstrom, 20 years old, Army specialist, died of her injuries, uh, which was just horrible.
4:36
What a what a beautiful young woman just starting her life.
4:40
Makes you really choke up and sad uh to see that.
4:43
And another gentleman uh continues to fight for his as of this moment.
4:46
That could change any time, but we pray that he gets through it.
4:49
Air Force staff sergeant, Andrew Wolf, only 24 years old as well, in very bad shape.
4:55
Uh the suspected shooters in Afghan national.
4:58
Uh it's controversial what what happened there, what he went through.
5:02
Uh, Nate, let's start with you here on this story.
5:04
And um, this uh, you know, this this violence, this uh you're you know, you're connecting dots here, as I've just done with the the the guard, the ice agents, law enforcement, seditious six, so on and so forth.
5:15
I mean, hardly anybody can be surprised by these attacks.
5:18
And I suggest they'll we we've been talking about there's going to be more and more of these things because people like this who have a couple of screws loose, uh, they just think they're doing some sort of patriotic duty for this for these radical extremists uh comments being put out there.
5:32
It's a pretty dangerous uh environment, isn't it?
5:36
It absolutely is.
5:37
Um look, it it is difficult enough, you know, for our own soldiers coming back, you know, from a combat situation.
5:46
Uh, but at least they're coming back to a place that is normal for them, to a place they call home.
5:52
When you take somebody who's basically been, you know, in a combat situation pretty much their whole life, and uh you're uprooting them out of you know what is normal for them and taking them and putting them in America, that's not a good situation.
6:08
There's nothing good psychologically about that.
6:12
And uh, and I think that uh, you know, it's it's complicated, obviously.
6:17
Uh this guy, uh, you know, who who uh was the uh shooter, uh had worked with our military over in Afghanistan, is what is being uh told to us.
6:28
Uh I've seen uh that he was working with um looks like CIA contractors.
6:33
And you know, it is a it's a scary situation because there is a a sense of duty, right?
6:40
You know, for those who helped us, right, to you know, give them a safe haven, if you will.
6:46
Right.
6:46
Um, but uh there should have been way better vetting because uh clearly something was psychologically wrong with this guy.
6:52
Yeah, let me talk about that veteran with you, Nate a moment here.
6:55
Uh okay, so it's an Afghan nationalist, this guy.
6:58
Uh he they say, no, again, there's so much, it's so hard to read through these weeds because there's so much crummy information out there.
7:05
Call it whatever you want.
7:07
But uh the the Boston Post says he underwent uh thorough veteran by counter-terrorism authorities before entering the U.S., according to people, direct knowledge of the case.
7:18
This is what they're reporting.
7:20
Of course, others say that didn't happen.
7:22
Uh, you have any sense of this?
7:23
I mean, and and this is Trump's big beef right now.
7:25
He's saying that, listen, let's stop all this nonsense right now, and I want everybody vet it.
7:29
I mean, that's really what he's saying, you know.
7:31
Well, I think there's a there is a a case to be made that why are we bringing people from a place that is so different from America to our country?
7:42
Like honestly, there are plenty of other nations that surround them that have similar values, similar religion.
7:48
Uh, you know, and in fact, just you know, if you follow our own immigration guidance for asylum, typically asylum should be the next closest, you know, neighboring country.
8:00
Now, granted, this is a unique situation because many of the Afghanis that have come here uh, you know, got their their asylum cases on the basis of their support for U.S.
8:11
troops when we were there.
8:13
But I would still argue that we have to do a a better job of really examining are these people fit for being in the United States.
8:22
Because the fact is that asylum is only supposed to be a temporary thing.
8:25
Right.
8:25
But we all know that that's not what happens.
8:27
Yeah.
8:28
They end up eventually uh applying for citizenship and usually getting it here.
8:32
And I think that's a problem because many of these people have no concept of the constitution, have no concept of Western freedom.
8:40
They have uh a very difficult time, I think, accepting, you know, our Judeo-Christian ethic, if you will.
8:47
Yeah, yeah, for sure, for sure.
8:49
And Brandon, uh, this uh to Nate's point here, uh this is um a lot of these, you know, whether the vet and processes not a lot of these people they live in, like Nate's saying, really, I think it's just an in very challenging environments, uh, where you know it's a whole different perspective in a lot of these places, even the way they um I don't know, the way they treat people the way they feel free to kill people, you know.
9:12
Uh, this happens quite a bit here.
9:14
This particular case here, and with what Trump's trying to do with it with the veteran, this stuff, um, you know, and yet we feel there's some sort of uh uh people think there's an obligation, as like we're saying, to cover these people.
9:26
What do you think about this story?
9:27
We're doing the wrong thing.
9:28
Well, first of all, I think it it what what Nate was just saying, I think makes it should make it very clear that the entire mission in both Afghanistan and Iraq were flawed from the start, in the sense that, you know, we we were going there partly to bring democracy.
9:44
Uh and uh, you know, obviously these people are not uh ready or prepared or capable for that kind of a lifestyle.
9:52
And here we are 20 plus years later, still dealing with the fallout from those delusions, um, strategic delusions.
10:00
So it's sort of a larger point I'd make.
10:02
The second point I would make is I don't buy for a second these people were properly vetted.
10:07
You look at the way we got out of Afghanistan.
10:09
There was absolutely no order, no prep I interviewed Moises Benabib, who was the senior State Department guy, and he was running or was trying to run uh preparation for the EVAC, and the Biden administration told him don't even use words like evacuation or um there was another term he told he was told not to use in his official emails.
10:34
His team wasn't even allowed to prepare even after the agreements were signed with the Taliban saying we'd be out uh by fall of 2021.
10:42
So that's one of the reasons they were caught with their bridges down.
10:46
So I don't believe for a second that any of these people were properly vetted.
10:49
I think we just crammed a bunch of people onto a plane, and they they might have nominally been involved with helping us, but no real vetting.
10:57
There's no possible way they could from Kabul.
11:00
My buddy was sitting there and they were trying to coordinate with the families of of the people they believed were our allies on the ground, and the State Department didn't even have translators available to translate the phone calls so they could tell these people where they needed to go to be picked up uh and and safely removed from the country.
11:16
And we have no idea, by the way, who actually got on those where the passports were uh forcibly removed by Taliban uh people and given to their operatives, and there is an entire, I believe, fifth columnist element here in the United States.
11:31
And I'll just I'll just finish by saying Sarah Adams is a former CIA targeting analyst, and she has been banging this drum for over two years, saying that there is a fifth columnist element here, and they are preparing for a major Al-Qaeda attack.
11:45
Uh, some are saying this December in the next couple weeks, and I don't think our people, our security services are even aware of it or prepared for it.
11:52
Wow.
11:53
Well, they know to stay off the radar if that's happening.
11:55
You actually heard that with in December.
11:57
You Brendan, you actually heard that.
11:59
Yeah, I've been hearing that.
12:00
I know Sarah and Scott, uh, man, I I know her her buddy Scott, who's also involved with this group, and they're on Sean Ryan's show all the time, and they live just north of me here in Florida.
12:10
And uh, you know, she tried to get in with Shangorka to brief him, and he cut her out of the White House.
12:16
Uh, so the you know, the Trump administration doesn't want to hear it right now.
12:20
So I hope that they are ready to roll.
12:22
Any idea why they picked December?
12:24
Any idea?
12:25
I have no idea.
12:26
I don't know, but you know, there's a lot of there's a lot of um, you know, uh irresponsible government behavior as always.
12:33
Yeah, yeah, uh, when it comes to this issue.
12:35
And I think this is a warning shot.
12:37
We need to get prepared.
12:38
Yeah, well, uh and the problem is uh that they these people uh at the level that they're at that you're speaking about, they know how to stay off the radar.
12:46
They know that anything is going to be swept up, uh, the NSA and communications, and and that's the danger part.
12:52
We also know there's a there's a uh I mean, a huge amount of these people in this country.
12:57
I mean, they're they're the ones they're not getting when they're going after these agents, ice agents and others uh that are being you know, I don't think they're in major cities, these people they're in remote areas staying off the radar, don't you think?
13:10
Yeah, I think they're also targeting medium-sized cities.
13:13
I mean, what they're looking at, what I have heard is that the fear is that it's going to be an October 7th style attack, less than a 9-11 style attack.
13:21
Um, that they're plotting for.
13:23
And you look at, you know, you look at some of the soft targets in this country, and you just think, My goodness, we're not prepared.
13:30
Um, you know, we're asleep at the switch again.
13:32
And um, you know, bringing in a lot of Afghans, I understand that some of them helped us, and we we don't want to leave those people behind.
13:39
I think Nate is right.
13:40
We we you know, we do have an obligation on some level, but there's no reason why we had to bring them all here.
13:47
Anyway, and that's and that's Trump's point.
13:49
I've seen them in the last couple of years.
13:50
Yeah, and he's right about that.
13:51
Yeah, right.
13:52
He's holding up the pitches.
13:53
He's saying, come on, come on.
13:54
That this is this is insane, basically, and we we shouldn't have ever done this to begin with.
13:58
Uh as he's looking at this thing.
13:59
All right, let me let me just take what you've said there.
14:02
That's pretty serious stuff, Nate.
14:03
What uh Brandon is talking about there.
14:05
And listen, listen, I I'd had direct conversation with with terrorism uh experts at the highest level here who do believe something is brewing.
14:13
There's no doubt about it.
14:14
I mean, Dr.
14:14
James Mitchell, who uh who uh was involved on the water border of these uh Al Qaeda and is a piece of American history, was on the program here just a few weeks ago, as he's been many times, and uh he he says he look you look at the evidence, you look what's happening.
14:30
Well, there's gonna be a target here.
14:31
There, there's uh we're in a very dangerous environment situation.
14:35
So we have to hope that our uh that our uh uh officials are uh you know paying attention to this.
14:42
Uh they're so distracted with all this stuff, Nate, right now, it would be easy for that to slip in.
14:47
And then they would create the fear factor in our country and they would accomplish what they want.
14:51
Uh give me just a quick point on this.
14:53
I want to talk about this pure research and the breakdown and the uh the political divide a little bit more.
14:57
But what you have a sense of what Brandon's saying there?
15:00
What do you think?
15:01
Oh, absolutely.
15:02
And I don't think it's um only a concern in regards to Afghanistan.
15:08
I think we got to look at any country where we have enemies, and there are people who are migrating here, uh seeking asylum here.
15:17
Uh, there's some evidence that's come out that uh the Taliban was uh, you know, producing um passports for some of these people.
15:26
And uh, and I think that there's a major concern that we could have a uh several sleeper cells in the United States, not just from Afghanistan.
15:34
I also worry about Venezuela everywhere.
15:38
And we've got how many uh military age men that have come across the board.
15:43
Well, a whole bunch from Venezuela, a whole bunch from Shawn, a whole bunch from the Middle East.
15:46
Well, and also I would say Syria as well.
15:48
We've disempowered uh Jelani, now Shira uh and HTS, and in five minutes ago, they were beheading you know, Westerners and uh, you know, doing uh their their best to live up to Bin Laden's example, and now we've crowned them the leaders of Syria, and they are not our friends, and they they are I think also flooding the country with or or at least I was told that Shira knows what's hap what's coming uh in the next few weeks if it happens that he's he's aware of it and he's not telling us and that and that Syria story, and we don't have time to get into it now, but it is pretty sick, Brendan.
16:22
It's pretty sick.
16:23
Uh it's horrible.
16:24
The fact that he's risen in the White House and all that's going on is mindful.
16:27
Play basketball with the CentCom commanders.
16:31
Mind blowing.
16:32
I mean, you talk about being sleeping with the enemy.
16:36
My golly, I don't even know how to discuss.
16:38
Uh Nate, uh Pew Research.
16:40
Um back to a lot of this division right now.
16:43
There's a lot going on right now, really.
16:44
Pew research says Americans say politically motivated violence is increasing, you know, and uh that's kind of one of those duh moments, you know.
16:52
And they see many reasons why.
16:54
And of course, the country across the political spectrum, Americans see politically motivated violence as on the rise.
17:00
Let's say this number nate here.
17:02
85% say politically motivated violence is increasing.
17:05
This includes nearly identical shares.
17:07
This is what blows my mind a little bit.
17:08
Republican and Republican uh lean leaners and Democrats and Democrats.
17:12
So 86% of Republicans and those who lean Republicans, 86% and Democrats, 85%.
17:20
So everybody's admitting we're kind of screwed at the moment.
17:23
You know, there's a lot of there's a lot of vitriol and hate and division going on.
17:26
Just over half Americans see left wing.
17:29
Now over half just over half of Americans.
17:32
That's 53% see left wing and right wing, 52% right wing extremism as major problems.
17:41
Nearly as many, 47% say this about extremism from people without clear political views.
17:46
Nate, I'll tell you what.
17:46
Now, listen, listen.
17:48
And the numbers through this thing that I've studied here, they it's left and right from this uh numbers here.
17:52
They're saying are pretty equal.
17:54
I'm just not seeing the violence on the right at all.
17:56
I don't could you point that out to me, please, because I must have missed those headlines.
17:59
Could you tell me where that's at?
18:01
Sure.
18:01
Yeah.
18:02
So, you know, when you talk to people on the left, uh, the number one thing that they will cite as evidence of violence from the right is January 6th.
18:11
So that is the view that they see, even though the only person killed, you know, was a a uh a person on the right by a capital police and um you know, and then also uh Roseanne Boylan and some others, but nobody the violence there was nothing compared to what we have seen has been perpetrated against this country and against cities by uh separatist groups and Marxist groups that have been all over the country and that have been left wing.
18:42
Now, I do have a concern that there is a growing uh backlash that is beginning in the right, and we're beginning to see it uh you know, kind of rear its ugly head.
18:55
Okay, and I do have some concerns about that because there are there are people who are getting they're growing tired of it, they're beginning to see that there's no other option but violence.
19:05
And I have concerns.
19:06
This is exactly what Charlie Kirk warned about when he said, Look, the reason we have to keep talking is because when people stop talking, then it leads to violence.
19:15
Well, let me ask you, Nate, when you say what you say that with the concerns you have, you know, there's another side of that coin.
19:21
I just want to say, and I just want to get your quick view on that.
19:23
I mean, weren't we kind of raised that you have to fight fire with fire sometimes?
19:27
Don't you don't we have to get on the room and get a little bit louder than some of those people?
19:31
I don't know, I'm just asking.
19:32
Yeah, I I understand that the problem is is that when I start hearing people, you know, calling for civil war or saying, you know, let's, you know, then and they're kind of cheering it on, and it's coming, I think, more from a place of of fear.
19:45
I I worry because honestly, anybody that has been in any kind of combat situation or has seen war, yeah, that's the last thing you want to say.
19:53
Yeah, no, your point is right well taken because I've seen people all around me now for some time talking about that civil war.
19:59
I've got people on
20:00
My plan on our network here and many of our listeners, they they know this conversation very well.
20:05
Brandon, this idea, Nate's saying of a uh a serious conflict.
20:09
I mean, there have been people reporting this for some time that it's going to happen here.
20:13
There's a boiling point.
20:14
But you know, listen, let me just say, Brendan, and to Nate's point there.
20:18
How often, how many times can I mean listen, I I'm just tired myself of it as an American patriot constitutionalist.
20:25
How many times does the right acquiesce to the left who get away with everything?
20:30
They've been doing it for decades now, decades, decades, decades.
20:33
Did I say decades?
20:35
Getting away with this, Brendan.
20:36
When is enough enough?
20:38
I'm just asking.
20:38
I'm just asking.
20:39
Well, that's the thing is, you know, you've got within the Republican Party, you've got two kind of forces.
20:44
You have the establishment, which runs the Congress and the DC side of things.
20:49
Then you have the grassroots.
20:51
The grassroots is the reason we have the Tea Party.
20:53
The grassroots is the reason we have MAGA, the reason we have Trump.
20:56
Um, the grassroots is seriously woefully underrepresented in Washington, DC.
21:02
And in DC, you have the the Washington Generals running the Republican Party, which is why these guys, you you know, you have to do a full cavity body search to find a backbone in them.
21:13
Um, and they're going to continue to be that way.
21:15
In fact, I know for a fact that Thune and Johnson uh are s they're vipers and they are waiting the Trump.
21:23
This is their plan.
21:24
They're waiting the Trump administration out.
21:26
They know he's got about 35 months left.
21:29
Uh, and I think they're secretly hoping that the Democrats take back some power.
21:33
That way they're more restrained.
21:35
Uh the Republicans are, because the Republicans in Congress, they want to have power, but they don't want to use it.
21:40
So they like being the minority.
21:42
Um that's Brandon.
21:43
You really believe you believe that to be true.
21:45
Yeah.
21:46
I I believe that to be true.
21:47
I don't know, you know, I don't know if that is specifically what John Thune, if he wants to lose his job, but I think that there is an element of just they don't they like to be in the camera, but they don't want to have any real responsibility.
22:00
And that's the been the pattern.
22:02
I worked up in Congress long enough to see it.
22:04
Um another thing to consider is with the Democrats and the left.
22:08
Um, I think a lot of the civil war talk, first of all, is actually coming from them.
22:12
And I think it's I think it's uh color revolution.
22:15
I think that we are living through another phase of the color revolution.
22:18
You look at the seditious six, these these Congress, these senators rather, former intelligence and or military people.
22:26
They are begging publicly, the military and intelligence officials of the country to ignore the the presidential orders and directives they receive.
22:34
Yeah, uh, and it is in relation, by the way.
22:36
It is in relation to this situation in Venezuela.
22:39
So they are trying to now influence unduly foreign policy.
22:42
Uh to me, the the real threat is not is not necessarily a traditional civil war.
22:48
It's of a color revolution being triggered by some rogue element within our intelligence services, which is cooperating with these uh Democrat, you know, cutouts in Congress, you know, the slotkins and which is all by design is what you're saying.
23:02
And January 6, by the way, was itself a Fed surrection.
23:06
We know that now.
23:06
Yeah, so all by design and and it's so much let me just say this, not to be sarcastic guy here, but all uh welcome to the golden age of America, my fellow.
23:17
Right.
23:17
I mean, that gives you a woman fuzzy right there, doesn't it?
23:20
By the way, guys, gentlemen, gentlemen, I just interviewed and the last uh day or two here, uh the first J6 uh gentleman who was uh sentenced.
23:31
Uh and Paul Hodgkins, Paul Hodkins, and uh was sentenced.
23:35
I just did a long form interview with him, which will be released uh the next couple of weeks, and it is quite fascinating uh the conversation we have and this whole thing.
23:44
But uh back to Nate, your point about them US and J6 as some sort of a uh, you know, uh terrorist uh that like this was really going to happen.
23:53
Like they were trying to take up the.
23:54
I mean, I don't even want to go there.
23:56
It's so disgusting the whole thing is and the way it was set up.
23:59
Uh was a total setup from Pelosi and company.
24:02
Absolutely uh and and then some.
24:04
And uh, you know, it's just garbage.
24:06
Well, and the media helped them, of course.
24:07
And they're the culprits, they're the culprits.
24:10
And this is the problem when Trump said that the media were the enemy of the people.
24:14
He was absolutely hundred million percent.
24:16
But talk about that.
24:16
What I I gotta get your quick view on uh what he says, what Brandon just says about Thune and Johnson fricking frack up there.
24:22
What do you think about that, please?
24:24
Oh, yeah.
24:25
Uh without a doubt.
24:26
And I think you nailed it on the head when you said they they don't want any responsibility.
24:29
And see, this is the problem is that all this stuff has been going on.
24:33
There's plenty enough reason to arrest a good number of people within Congress, to be honest with you.
24:41
Uh, and and but yeah, but a couple of buses, yeah.
24:44
You'll need a few buses for that, I think.
24:46
I don't know that there's the will to do it.
24:48
And clearly they they can't even censure some of these people who need to be yet alone.
24:56
Some of them need to be arrested because they've violated uh, you know, like Ilhan Omar.
25:00
Uh there's clearly uh evidence that she she basically got to be.
25:04
She's a security for false pretenses.
25:06
You know, you know, you you're say that.
25:08
I I just got to share with you real quickly.
25:09
There was a piece that went up here uh yesterday, uh went up on Saturday.
25:14
Uh, and it was uh uh let me see here.
25:17
I just got to tell you real quick talking turkey and ruffling feathers.
25:20
Uh and uh it's with uh Marjorie Taylor Green on the image of this thing.
25:24
What's fascinating?
25:24
The reason I bring it up back to your guys' point here is I it was uh I open a number here that I seen in here, and uh that uh in her resignation, let's see here.
25:33
She oh, here we go.
25:34
Listen to this.
25:35
Since joining Congress in 2021, her net worth has jumped from 700,000 to 25 million dollars as of October 2025.
25:44
Not a bad ROI uh for her investment of time there.
25:49
Wow.
25:50
That was stunning here.
25:51
That was from Mayor Deb, by the way, on uh Unleashed here, uh pretty wild stuff.
25:55
Uh and I just had to say that that's an and that's just what's happening up there.
25:59
They're all just they're getting no matter where they fall in the aisle is irrelevant.
26:02
It's all about greed and money and what have you.
26:04
All right.
26:05
It's also about brand building.
26:06
So the biggest problem on the right with these Republicans is that they go to Congress to build a media brand and then they leave to be media celebrities.
26:14
Great point, great point.
26:15
Yeah, yeah, great point.
26:16
I think that's what she's doing.
26:17
All right, let's let's move this to uh right now to the emigration from third world countries.
26:20
I want to get an opinion from both of you here.
26:22
Uh so the U.S.
26:23
uh, let me stay Brandon with you on this here.
26:25
U.S.
26:25
holds all asylum decisions, uh, poison visas for Afghan nationals, but he's talking more than that as well.
26:30
He wants to do the vet and process more and understand because he realizes the president that it's been the wild west for a lot of years here.
26:36
We're not doing this properly.
26:38
That adds to the insult here in our country, in addition to what we just talked about of that's with the uh fifth column and everything that's happening.
26:45
What do you say about this decision he's making here?
26:47
Well, I think it's the least we could do.
26:49
I I think it's not enough.
26:50
Um, I think we need to have a complete moratorium, Calvin Coolidge style on all immigration coming into the United States for the next 20 to 30 years.
27:00
A hundred percent stoppage.
27:02
Uh, I don't believe we need any more people coming in.
27:04
We need to hit have time to integrate the people who've come here already.
27:08
And I think in terms of asylum seekers, um, again, we don't need to be bringing asylum seekers directly into our country.
27:15
We can have them stay in place uh at embassies.
27:18
We can move them to countries nearer.
27:20
Uh, just what Nate was talking about with the Afghan uh nationals that we were repatriating.
27:26
So I mean, I think that there are plenty of rules in in our legal system that allow for us to not have to embrace people directly in large numbers.
27:35
It's just that our politicians buy into this libertarian notion that you know borders don't mean anything, and it's become a cult-like belief for decades, and this is why you're seeing the destruction of the American people.
27:48
By the way, I'm not just talking about asylum seekers and illegal immigrants.
27:51
I'm talking about H1B visas.
27:53
Uh, you know, and we need to stop it.
27:56
It needs to be a complete cult.
27:58
Yeah, yeah.
27:59
From a cybersecurity standpoint, uh, the H1 program has been uh used to basically bring thousands of Chinese nationals, which the Chinese Communist Party itself has a program that requires them to spy on foreign nations and foreign companies and report back that information to the Chinese Communist Party.
28:23
How we would allow any Chinese national to come to this country is beyond me.
28:27
And they're here and they're here in huge numbers.
28:29
I mean, I talked to Tom Holman on that many times on this broadcast right here on how many came into this country.
28:34
I mean, there's a working for companies, by the way, that produce products and services that are used by our federal government and national security apparatus.
28:43
It's absolutely insane.
28:44
Okay, and it isn't, it isn't just China either, though.
28:46
I mean, I talked to a lot of my colleagues in Australia who work in Australia's intelligence services, and they're saying you guys are being taken advantage of by the Indians, and the Indians are flooding the country with their people through the H1B, not just because they can get get get in for cheaper, but also because there is an actual intelligence gathering uh element coming in similar to what China's doing.
29:09
It's underreported because we're looking at India as a partner, and we should, but we need to be aware that these countries exploit these loopholes for their own nationality.
29:17
Well, they use our the you know, they use our freedoms and our rights, our liberties to uh pull us down basically here.
29:23
You know, I you know what really gets to me on these kinds of stories as you're listening out there.
29:28
We're listening to uh to Nate here and uh Brendan is you know, you do you have a stop a minute out there and think what what will we look like this country in 50 years from now?
29:37
What will it look like with the you you just can't even put wrap your mind around that, can you, people out there?
29:41
Can you?
29:42
I mean, just it makes you really like wow.
29:44
Oh, it and it's because back to Nate and Brendan, what they're talking about, the uh much of it is these buffoons who are in high office here who have are driving our country right into the ground.
29:53
You know, our founders have got to be just restless at this point, they've got to be going out of their uh well, they're already out of their minds, they're dead.
30:00
Dead, but they're gonna be totally really like uh what turning in their grave, I guess if that's if that's a thing.
30:05
I don't know.
30:05
All right, autopen, real quickly here.
30:07
Uh Nate, the auto pen, Biden's pardons.
30:10
This one, I just about nearly spit up my uh coffee as I was looking at this story here.
30:15
He says sleepy Joe Biden autopen actions are terminated.
30:18
Any documents signed by Sleepy Joe Biden, the auto pen, which is approximately 92% of them.
30:23
Wow, that's a that's a number I didn't realize that high is hereby terminated and of no further force or effect.
30:28
Now, I don't know that the president can the president, I guess my question to you is can the president make that decision or is this a decision for supports or somebody can he make that decision?
30:36
He can do that on every executive order.
30:38
The only thing that he I don't know that he can, I don't think he can go back and do is uh is if there were any pardons that were made by autopen.
30:46
I don't know that he can reverse a pardon, but um which is unfortunate because I'm sure there were a lot of people pardoned uh that probably paid for those pardons and didn't deserve them.
30:56
And but as far as executive orders, the president absolutely that's an executive order.
31:01
He can go and and uh turn it over.
31:04
Interesting.
31:04
That's exactly what Biden did, by the way, on day one of his presidency.
31:07
So called is he reversed all of Trump's Well, I know they can do that with the executive orders.
31:11
That does it is in even my question.
31:13
But he can challenge Trump can challenge the pardons in court, and if they can prove, and they have a friendly judge, which is a big if, but if they can prove that the pardons were not correctly done, they could probably overturn some of those pardons on technicality.
31:27
And I guess my point is I'm I'm less about the pardons and the executive orders than I am on the autopen point of this conversation.
31:34
The autopen Brandon is what I'm really referencing.
31:37
Yeah, but this is all because of the auto pen.
31:38
Exactly.
31:39
Yeah, and so I think if they can prove that those pardons were signed, not by the president, but by some auto pen, I think this could open up an entire legal uh, you know, case that might go the way of the president.
31:50
Well, yeah, it could.
31:51
It could very well.
31:52
I don't discount that at all, but I can see the left now saying there, oh, I told you he was a king.
31:56
I told you he was a king.
31:58
He was a king, man.
31:59
I told you you're not listening to me.
32:01
All right, here we go.
32:02
A bit last big story I gotta get to here.
32:04
And this is uh uh, well, before we do Russia real fast here, uh Venezuela airspace being closed and uh targeting um uh and and then some of these targets that are now as people hear this are probably forthcoming here.
32:17
Uh what uh what's uh what's your uh sense on this?
32:20
Um 30 seconds each year, not much time for this one here.
32:24
But uh Brendan, what do you think on this, please?
32:26
Um, I think that we need to be very careful that we don't get involved in another quagmire.
32:30
I also think, though, we do need to reassert our dominance in the Western Hemisphere.
32:34
I would just be very careful of the Russian equator task force, which is running all over Venezuela, and they have a colonel general who's very serious down there, who is running the Russian element.
32:45
So I'm very concerned about the foreign input in Venezuela.
32:47
Yeah, Russia and China are both have have their hands in there.
32:50
Uh yeah, but the Russians are on the ground and they've and that that equator task force is the real deal.
32:54
You think they could use that talent back at home.
32:56
There, uh in any event here.
32:59
Um it is a problem.
33:00
You know, I I was my wife and I were talking.
33:03
I gotta tell you guys on the side, uh listeners will laugh at this, probably.
33:07
Uh, but uh, you know how sometimes you're talking to your loved one, you're by somebody uh, you know, close to you, and they say something you would never say in the public.
33:14
Well, my wife said that uh just uh last night here.
33:16
We're talking about the story, and she says, you know, about this, you know, this um Venezuela thing.
33:21
And she said, you know, she said, you gotta admit, she said, uh I on all our presidents in our life.
33:26
Trump is the only one that has the size balls that he has to be able to do something like this.
33:29
And I went aghast, Nate.
33:31
I was like, I can't believe you said that.
33:35
Yeah.
33:36
She'll hit me in the head when she hears a snake but I I do think that uh and and I would agree, uh, Brendan, that you we we really have to be careful that we don't get ourselves drawn into a war.
33:48
Um, it would be I think that's exactly what Russia hopes.
33:52
You know, they honestly want us to take our attention off of Europe and what's happening there, and would love to get us entangled.
33:59
But Nate, don't you think I don't you don't think Nate Nate, you don't think he's going in for a war?
34:04
I think he's going in to probably do a one, two, three, four, five bing bing bing bing bing surgical strikes.
34:09
Oh yeah.
34:09
I mean, i the reality is is that I think we've got a I think we do have a a good amount of warships, I mean 12 warships plus, you know, down there 15,000 total U.S.
34:22
personnel are in the region.
34:23
Um, I think we do have to have a show of force.
34:26
Okay.
34:26
And uh, but they're they're doing it right.
34:28
There's they're staying in international waters.
34:31
Yeah.
34:31
Uh there's a lot of people.
34:32
Well, that's changing right now, though.
34:33
That's changing, you know, real quick here.
34:35
Yeah.
34:36
So and he's but he's been saying this.
34:37
Listen, listen, listen.
34:38
He set the table for this over the past few weeks.
34:40
He he's not mixing his words here.
34:42
He's been saying this.
34:43
Uh you know, now that he's going on land and he's going to do this, gonna do that, do it.
34:47
And you know, he's the kind of guy who does things when he says he's gonna do them, pretty much.
34:51
Yeah.
34:52
All right, the Russia's next move, which Putin will turn up uh to the peace talks.
34:57
Uh that was a message in the UK Times.
34:59
Nate, which Putin will turn up to the peace talks.
35:01
This guy's all over the ballpark.
35:03
Uh and uh is is uh do you see anything happening here in the short term with peace with that Ukraine Russia thing?
35:09
Or uh it looks like Putin's playing the long game here.
35:11
What do you say?
35:11
I I think he's playing the long game.
35:13
Look, if if he I think it's at the point now where if he backs down and this war ends, and it's probably a death sentence for him.
35:22
Yeah, yep, yeah, yeah.
35:22
Oh, well, it very well could be.
35:24
Uh but Brandon, your thoughts on this one, please.
35:26
I think if he walks away with the Russian speaking portions of Ukraine and Crimea and he gets the recognition of Crimea, I don't think it's a death sentence for him at all.
35:34
I think he's I think he's uh he's solidified his place in Russian history as the next Peter the Great, which is what he's wanted uh his whole life.
35:42
And uh I think he wants a deal because I think he wants to get business deals with Trump on the rare earth mineral development.
35:48
So you think this would end in the short term?
35:50
It could end in the short term in the long term.
35:51
I I think we might be getting a deal.
35:53
Maybe that's if the elements of the bureaucracy is not opposed, who's opposed to Trump doesn't interfere, and it looks like they are.
36:00
Okay.
36:01
If he can get uh if he can get, I agree with you if he can get Crimea uh recognition and I think that's on the table.
36:07
It is, it is, it is.
36:08
They're giving crime.
36:09
They they want a major port in a way to be able to bring they want their warm water parts, which is an old Russian strategic ambition for dec, you know, centuries.
36:17
Yeah, yeah.
36:18
That's a done deal.
36:18
I said this even the last couple of weeks here.
36:20
There's no way he's given Crimea or Eastern Ukraine back.
36:23
Before he would do that, I think it would use targeted nuclear.
36:26
I don't think he's going into Europe, though, unless the Europeans really make themselves a dividing target.
36:30
I think that's garbage.
36:31
Right now, that's garbage.
36:33
Yeah, he doesn't have the resources for that.
36:34
No, and I just I think his hands are more than full here.
36:37
But everybody's oh my god, he's gonna invade us all.
36:39
Shut up.
36:40
I mean, uh it ain't happening here.
36:42
So, anyways, that's it.
36:43

Or we will sentence them to take the first step into a thousand years of darkness.
41:38
Those are the words of number 40.
41:40
Ronald Reagan shine bright as America approaches 250 years.
41:48
America Outloud Doc News is that place to awaken your heart, soul, and mind to the outbound truth.
42:03
And we joined you back here on Viewpoint this Sunday, and a privilege to be with you always, my fellow Americans.
42:10
Welcome back to the broadcast.
42:12
And uh I hope everybody just continues on and just take some moments and just enjoy the this joyous part of the holiday and and and pray that uh you you have all your blessings.
42:24
We sometimes, oftentimes too often take our blessings for granted.
42:27
And we do need to step back and give praise for those blessings.
42:31
We all do it, we're all guilty of it.
42:32
Uh, but uh, you know, listen, uh, we can all do a little better here.
42:36
Uh I've got a couple of big stories here, and I want to talk to our dear friend Evangelist Alvita King is here.
42:42
She founded Speak for Life, which advocates for the sanctity and dignity of all life.
42:47
And that really is been, I think, a life milestone for you, uh, Elvita, in such big ways.
42:54
Uh Elvita, you know, is the daughter of the late Slain uh civil rights activist, Reverend A.
42:59
D.
43:00
King.
43:00
Well, her dad, of course, and the niece of Reverend Dr.
43:04
Martin Luther King Jr., uh, speakforlife.org.
43:08
And Alvita, it is a privilege to have you here on Viewpoint this Sunday.
43:12
Welcome.
43:13
Malcolm.
43:14
It's always so very special to join you on Sunday.
43:18
Your voice is so calming, and it does a lot to my soul.
43:22
And so, listeners, as we're talking with Malcolm out loud, he says so much with his voice and with his heart and with this radio program.
43:32
It's just an honor for me to be a part of it.
43:34
Thank you so much.
43:35
You are a blessing, boy.
43:36
What a treat for me to say that for listeners to hear that.
43:39
But uh, we have become very dear friends over the years, and I just adore you.
43:44
And uh you bring you bring so much to the spirit of the conversation.
43:47
And uh so I want to start first with this um story.
43:51
Uh, this is out of the Wall Street Journal now.
43:53
And this one, I just I don't know, there's something just so horrific about this that just gets me.
43:59
There was no alarm.
44:00
Hong Kong Inferno spread across towers in silence.
44:05
Wow.
44:05
The shrouded buildings and broken alarms left many apartment dwellers unaware of the unfolding disaster.
44:12
And let me just read you this little little piece here.
44:15
The fire quickly spread to engulf seven high-rise towers and took more than 24 hours to get under control.
44:22
It has claimed at least minimum, it's going to be a lot more than this, friends, but 128 lives already, according to authorities, making it the deadliest fire in uh in Hong Kong there.
44:32
At a nearby community hall, family members were identifying their bodies, and what a horrible scene.
44:37
The status of over a couple of hundred people is still unknown and uncertain, uh, which means we don't know what the end result of this is.
44:45
Uh and you know what's worse about this, Alvita, is to put uh this uh story in perspective here.
44:52
Officials in Hong Kong arrested three men on Thursday at the construction company responsible for renovations for alleged manslaughter on Friday as part of an investigation into possible corruption and the renovation project.
45:04
Uh people were arrested and uh so on and so forth.
45:07
But I guess there's more to the story.
45:08
There sometimes always is, I don't know.
45:10
But when you see those images, uh, and you think of the human life and the uh the humanity and all of that, it's a pretty horrific scene, Alvita.
45:19
I'd like to get your comments on that.
45:21
You know, immediately, as you were sharing that, I was a much younger woman.
45:25
There was a movie Towering Inferno.
45:29
Yeah, and what we found out even from that film, and now in reality, right here, and because we are one blood and one human race, nation to nation, skin to skin, circumstance to circumstance, human circumstances and situations, our hearts have to be touched.
45:47
And for those families who are having to identify the bodies of their loved ones, it may even turn out that it was arson to cover up some failure, and somebody might think they're gonna lose a lot of money, so let's just burn everything up without considering that those are human beings, yeah, loved ones, someone that people care about.
46:11
God certainly does.
46:13
So as our hearts, now we're coming out of Thanksgiving, and it it was bittersweet for me.
46:18
I lost my mom in 2024, and I couldn't say, Taste the turkey, what'd you put in the dress?
46:22
You know, all of that.
46:24
So I get it.
46:25
If we have suffered loss, yes.
46:28
But that is horrific.
46:29
And so, Father, we pray for those families.
46:32
We pray for those communities.
46:34
We pray for the call hearts that will hear the story and not think a thing about for it.
46:39
And bring comfort at this time.
46:42
I would advise us all to remember that God still is with us.
46:47
We're coming up on Christmas, the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, for those who confess Christ.
46:52
I do.
46:54
And so that is coming.
46:56
But remember, God is not willing that any be lost.
46:59
So that's still that same generosity from Thanksgiving.
47:03
The same tears that are being shed now.
47:05
As we move forward, let's reach out and continue to touch each other, to see each other, to hear each other, to forgive each other and to serve each other.
47:16
Malcolm, I don't know really what to say.
47:18
That's just uh Yeah, it's horrific.
47:22
Well, you said it very well there, but it is horrific.
47:24
Uh, and it's a terrible tragedy on every level.
47:28
And uh, it's a story I at least wanted to touch on here today to let uh people know we are thinking about those people.
47:34
And uh I seen some of the photographs, and my heart just broke when I seen the look and the despair and the sadness on their face as they're outside of these buildings looking back at the buildings.
47:46
Obviously, they probably have loved ones or situation lived in there, whatever it is, and knowing there's people in there.
47:52
And I just stopped me in my tracks to think about the people and the humanity of that moment.
47:58
Oh man, I'll tell you.
48:00
Yes.
48:01
It it rattles your soul in ways that um, you know, just as uh unthinkable, really.
48:07
Uh, another story, and I want to talk a little bit.
48:09
I want to get your advice for people today about this um really, and and we've talked over the years about this a little bit, but it's gotten pretty ugly now, Alvita.
48:18
This political divide that has become unglued here.
48:21
You hear about the seditious six, the Congress people that get on there and tell them to, you know, dish it's okay to disobey the president's orders and all that.
48:28
But put that aside a moment here, and I know you speak about that.
48:31
When you see the attacks and the violence against ICE agents, National Guard law enforcement, again, the Sargitus Six, many others, you know, and then you see the death at the killing of the this guardsman, this guards uh, and then the other one that is in horrible condition, may not make it.
48:46
Uh Sarah Beckstrom, I talked about her up front of the program, 20 years old, a beautiful young woman, army specialist, uh, just loved doing what she was doing there, died of her injuries, of course, and then uh Air Force Staff Sergeant, Andrew Wolf, 24, as of this moment, has been critically, he's very bad shape, critically situation and fighting to um to uh for his life at this moment of time.
49:12
And uh, so I want to talk about this political division in our country.
49:15
We see the heat is really risen.
49:17
It's gotten ugly from uh left to right here and what's happened.
49:21
And I think people don't really know.
49:22
Uh, I'm looking at polls and studies, and the division in our country has gotten to a point now, Alvita, that it's it's hard to fathom how much uglier it could get.
49:32
Well, let me just and it really still go back to Charlie Kirk, although all these things have happened since then.
49:40
And I remember my cousin Bernice King, Dr.
49:43
Barney King, and I'm Dr.
49:44
Alvita King.
49:45
And I remember we don't agree with each other politically, pretty much a lot of times.
49:50
But when Charlie was killed, she says, Oh my god.
49:53
I, you know, I was a child when my father was shot.
49:55
And whether you agreed with him or not, he didn't deserve to be killed.
50:00
And for you who are saying that Charlie's, they should have gotten his wife and his kids too.
50:04
Those are little children.
50:05
And Bernie's beginning to talk about being that little girl experiencing that.
50:09
And I think about my own father who was killed the next year.
50:12
Reverend A.D.
50:13
came in the same movement.
50:15
At the time it was over skin color.
50:16
But nowadays, again, and it's often over religion as well.
50:21
And then you look at ice and the work that they're doing, and all the people that you've mentioned, and so many more that we just don't even hear about home.
50:28
And so my uncle Reverend Dr.
50:30
Martin Luther King Jr.
50:32
called that man's inhumanity to man.
50:35
How inhuman we as human beings can be when we only think about ourselves and our selfish desires.
50:44
And so that's what strife is just self-desire, self-desires.
50:49
It's all about me.
50:50
Selfish ambition.
50:55
But I still have to remind us.
51:02
And people are still being kind to each other.
51:05
And people are helping.
51:07
It's kind of it's not funny, and it is.
51:09
So during uh the government shutdown, Malcolm.
51:13
Right.
51:13
And everybody, oh, what's Snap gonna do it?
51:15
What's the government?
51:16
They kind of said the government's on Jesus' shoulders.
51:18
He can handle this government.
51:19
What are you gonna do?
51:21
Who are you going to feed Al Vita?
51:23
Who are you going to see about?
51:25
And I immediately kind of cashed in a little bit on the 401k, and everybody said, Well, what are you gonna live on?
51:30
I say the name of Jesus.
51:32
Wow.
51:33
So I went and bought turkeys and dinners and took them up to the church, and we were feeding the community and et cetera.
51:39
So when do we remember that God wants us to do something and not just look who's gonna do it?
51:48
It's gonna be us.
51:49
We are going to do it, or we should.
51:52
Right, right.
51:52
Well, to your point now, hold on.
51:54
You did a uh fabulous uh post on on Twitter on X.
51:57
Uh, and uh to play to this point.
51:59
I just want to get this out there.
52:00
It says here, Alvita, your words now, real unity does not begin in Washington, DC.
52:08
It begins around our dinner tables.
52:11
If families, if families, churches, and neighbors can learn to listen, forgive, and love the world will see what heaven intended all along.
52:23
Let's start where we are, let's start with love.
52:27
That message just wow, it just lifted me up here, just hearing those words.
52:33
I remember with a broken heart, I was hurt a couple of two or three years ago, and I was saying to my family, and it was that time holiday season again.
52:42
I said, is that one thing we could do together?
52:46
Where we all do it together and we love each other and we don't fight.
52:50
So I can't remember if it was last year or year before last, but we said, well, instead of getting a caterer for our Thanksgiving dinner, or just one of us cooking the whole thing.
53:02
Why don't each of us bring something?
53:05
And people do this too.
53:07
And so I hope that others who are doing that in the preparing and bringing it and bringing it to the communal family table, you have touched that food.
53:17
You hopefully prayed over it, and as you do that, then you remember who made the this before, and the ones who are gone before, how did they do that?
53:26
And how did they make that?
53:28
So we found that that was something that we could actually talk to each other about, and then we actually took holy communion together.
53:36
Wow.
53:37
And so we've been doing that since we did that, two or three years ago.
53:41
It's hard to remember.
53:43
And so when we find somewhere, and then we look at each other.
53:47
I forgive you, brother, I forgive you, sister, I forgive you, cousin.
53:50
Right.
53:51
And mean it, absolutely mean it.
53:55
And so uh, yeah, we can find a place, Malcolm.
53:58
We can.
53:58
Yeah, yeah.
53:59
Well, you, you know, the thing that people should hear with you, as they hear your voice here, is you it haven't looked at you.
54:07
I've studied, I've seen your work, I know what you do.
54:10
We know, and you know, you are a person of action.
54:14
You your actions meet your words, and this is a message for all of us.
54:18
Uh it's one thing to say something, it's another thing to act on it, and like you say, do what sometimes is uncomfortable to do, which brings me to this other very interesting uh post you had put out that I want to sort of wrap this all up now in a package for folks, Alvita.
54:36
And because this is really a good lesson for all of us.
54:39
This should help us all our souls, our hearts, or let me tell you what it is.
54:42
It's called forgiveness is freedom.
54:44
Forgiveness is freedom.
54:46
Forgiveness is not a feeling, it's a choice that sets us free.
54:51
When Erica Kirk forgave her husband's killer, she reflected the heart of Jesus.
54:56
My grandfather did the same when his wife was killed while praying in church.
55:02
Forgiveness breaks the cycle of hate and unleashes heaven's power on earth.
55:09
Wow.
55:10
Malcolm, honestly, from the beginning of our talk till now, with all the terrible and painful things that are happening.
55:19
We see in the right center of all of that, have faith in God.
55:25
And when you pray, believe, and you shall have it.
55:30
Yet when you pray, forgive, so that your heavenly father can forgive you.
55:36
And so that starts with Mark 11, 22, and it goes on.
55:41
So all the things that have happened more recently with Erica Kirk, for instance, and all the things that we've discussed today, God still loves us, and our answer is going to be understanding and remembering that we are wanted, we are needed, and we are loved by God.
55:59
So during this season, let's just love and trust and have that kind of faith.
56:04
I want to sing a little bit of this hymn that many of us know.
56:09
Then sings my soul, my savior God to thee.
56:20
How great thou are, how great thou.
56:31
Please, friends, have a blessed Sunday.
56:34
Love, forgive, and do what my granddaddy Daddy King said.
56:38
Thank God for what we have left, and keep looking up.
56:44
That is Evangelist Dr.
56:45
Alvita King, and what a voice that should touch each of you in ways.
56:50
Bring that forward into the season here, friends.
56:53
Thank you for joining us here on the mission.
56:55
It's time to get involved and get loud, America.
