Transcript
- 0:10Speaker 1: Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's
- 0:14Speaker 1: America's favorite gun, total Bible, clinging, deplorable American.
- 0:18Speaker 2: That's American.
- 0:25Speaker 3: Jud starts well, ye, well, today is the day that
- 0:30Speaker 3: we begin a huge, huge surge to August the eleventh. Hello, everybody,
- 0:37Speaker 3: welcome to the Ton Stearns Radio program. What an honor
- 0:40Speaker 3: to have you joining us today. Bordered a border to
- 0:44Speaker 3: coast across the Fruited Plain. And the August eleventh date
- 0:48Speaker 3: is going to be very, very important to us because
- 0:52Speaker 3: that is the official day that my brand new book
- 0:55Speaker 3: will be in bookstores around the nation. And this is
- 0:59Speaker 3: one of those books that ladies and gentlemen is I
- 1:05Speaker 3: think going to make a big difference within the conservative
- 1:08Speaker 3: movement and especially among Generation Z. Already getting some early
- 1:14Speaker 3: reports in from the reviewers that this book is funny,
- 1:20Speaker 3: it's entertaining, but it's also inspirational, and it lays out
- 1:25Speaker 3: a course for how to fix what is broken with
- 1:28Speaker 3: this country. Now, some of you say, well, wait a second, Starns,
- 1:33Speaker 3: the name of the book is the Golden Age, How
- 1:34Speaker 3: Trump saved America. Well, if America's saved, then why don't
- 1:38Speaker 3: we just sit back and drink our Doctor Pepper's and
- 1:41Speaker 3: our lazy boy. Why do we have to do anything?
- 1:44Speaker 4: Well?
- 1:44Speaker 3: The reason why, ladies and gentlemen, is there is a
- 1:47Speaker 3: lot more work to be done. There is a lot
- 1:50Speaker 3: more work that we have to do to save America.
- 1:54Speaker 3: And when Donald Trump and just hear me on this,
- 1:57Speaker 3: all it will take is for the Democrats to regain
- 2:00Speaker 3: control of Congress, and all that is good will be undone.
- 2:05Speaker 3: I mean, that's how precarious we are. So yes, it
- 2:07Speaker 3: is a Golden Age and President Trump has ushered in
- 2:11Speaker 3: that golden age. But the reality is we still have
- 2:14Speaker 3: a lot of work to do. And the reason I
- 2:17Speaker 3: wrote the Golden Age is is not just for those
- 2:20Speaker 3: of us that are adults. We're in our careers, we're
- 2:24Speaker 3: thriving in our lives. It is also for Generation Z
- 2:28Speaker 3: because this will be the generation will that will stop
- 2:33Speaker 3: the threat of communism. You know, when you look back
- 2:36Speaker 3: at American history, and I write about this in the
- 2:40Speaker 3: Golden Age, you have to understand that the communist threat
- 2:43Speaker 3: really never went away. Back in the nineteen fifties and sixties,
- 2:48Speaker 3: in the aftermath of World War Two, we saw that
- 2:53Speaker 3: the communists were trying to infiltrate of all places, Hollywood,
- 2:56Speaker 3: and a lot of people didn't understand why there was
- 2:59Speaker 3: there was such concern about the Communist infiltrating Hollywood. And
- 3:03Speaker 3: I'm talking about writers and producers, the people that worked
- 3:08Speaker 3: behind the scenes, and they were infusing a lot of
- 3:13Speaker 3: the TV shows, a lot of the movies of the
- 3:15Speaker 3: time with communist ideology. It was really a sort of
- 3:20Speaker 3: a soft cell and it was I guess you could
- 3:23Speaker 3: say it was a don't a form of brainwashing to
- 3:27Speaker 3: some extent. How how the Communist had infiltrated, had infiltrated Hollywood,
- 3:34Speaker 3: And there have been some efforts in years past. And
- 3:37Speaker 3: by the way, that was that was the era that
- 3:40Speaker 3: brought us great American heroes like Ronald Reagan, who at
- 3:44Speaker 3: the time was president of the Spring, the Screen Actors Guild,
- 3:49Speaker 3: and Ronald Reagan did a tremendous job in helping to
- 3:54Speaker 3: root out the Communist that were that were operating in
- 3:58Speaker 3: in Hollywood and in many of the major production studios. Now,
- 4:03Speaker 3: when we take a look back at history, and there's
- 4:06Speaker 3: been an effort of late to rewrite what happened in
- 4:09Speaker 3: the nineteen fifties with movies like Trumbull who was one
- 4:16Speaker 3: of the one of the top writers in Hollywood. He
- 4:22Speaker 3: was also a communist. Legendary kind of a guy, but
- 4:29Speaker 3: he was a communist and he was he was a
- 4:34Speaker 3: very dangerous man. You would not think that he was
- 4:37Speaker 3: a dangerous man. But there was a movie done on
- 4:41Speaker 3: Dalton Trumbo back in why was it a couple of
- 4:44Speaker 3: years It's may have been longer than that. It's an
- 4:47Speaker 3: interesting movie, but it tells the story of his life
- 4:51Speaker 3: and he actually went to prison and was blacklisted for
- 4:55Speaker 3: many years in the film industry because of his connections
- 4:58Speaker 3: to the to communism and to the communist But the
- 5:03Speaker 3: whole point of the movie was to portray him as
- 5:05Speaker 3: the victim in all of this, and he was certainly
- 5:09Speaker 3: not the victim when it came to when it came
- 5:14Speaker 3: to communism and his efforts to mobilize and organize the
- 5:19Speaker 3: communist in Hollywood. So again this is what led to
- 5:27Speaker 3: really the birth, the political birth of Ronald Reagan. Eventually
- 5:33Speaker 3: as a Republican you had William F. Buckley Junior, who
- 5:37Speaker 3: of course founded National Review, and those two, along with Goldwater,
- 5:44Speaker 3: really became the foundation of the modern conservative movement. And
- 5:48Speaker 3: the fight was always against communism. It was good versus evil.
- 5:54Speaker 3: It was a religious battle. And you heard President Trump
- 5:57Speaker 3: using very similar language just well during the Fourth of
- 6:02Speaker 3: July holiday when he described the fight against communism in
- 6:06Speaker 3: America as a holy war. And that's why we look,
- 6:11Speaker 3: that's why many of us, you know, when you look
- 6:13Speaker 3: at Ronald Reagan, and when Reagan went to when he
- 6:17Speaker 3: was invited to the Soviet Union, he talked about religion.
- 6:19Speaker 3: He talked about God because Reagan knew, ultimately the way
- 6:23Speaker 3: to defeat communism was not through politics, but it was
- 6:26Speaker 3: actually through religion. And that's exactly that's exactly what Reagan is.
- 6:31Speaker 3: So I'm writing about all of this in the Golden Age,
- 6:34Speaker 3: sort of giving you a little bit of history to
- 6:36Speaker 3: understand where we are now, where you have the rise
- 6:40Speaker 3: of communists disguised as democratic socialist who are winning these
- 6:44Speaker 3: elections and why is that. Well, we just had our
- 6:47Speaker 3: good buddy Gabriel delany On and I sat down and
- 6:50Speaker 3: interviewed Gabriel for the book and to get his perspective
- 6:54Speaker 3: as a history teacher, somebody who is literally on the
- 6:58Speaker 3: front lines of this fight for the soul of our country.
- 7:03Speaker 3: And that fight is happening in America's classrooms, and the
- 7:07Speaker 3: reality is, not everybody can afford us in their kid
- 7:10Speaker 3: to a Christian school, not everybody can afford to homeschool
- 7:13Speaker 3: their kids. And so the reality is an overwhelming majority
- 7:17Speaker 3: of our population they're educated in public schools. And these
- 7:21Speaker 3: public schools are now populated with teachers that have gone
- 7:26Speaker 3: through the indoctrination. They've gone through the brainwashing even in
- 7:29Speaker 3: their own junior high school and high school careers, through
- 7:33Speaker 3: their college careers. Many of these teachers are in their
- 7:36Speaker 3: twenties and they have been completely radicalized. Many of them
- 7:40Speaker 3: may not even know that they've been radicalized. And you
- 7:43Speaker 3: see a lot of that. You see a lot of
- 7:44Speaker 3: it on TikTok, not all of it, but you see
- 7:46Speaker 3: a lot of it on TikTok where you see the
- 7:48Speaker 3: photos of the classrooms where they've got the pride flags
- 7:52Speaker 3: and the black Lives matters to all that stuff. So
- 7:57Speaker 3: it's there, and that's the danger zone here when when
- 8:01Speaker 3: you look at what's happening in our culture right now,
- 8:04Speaker 3: all of it is coming out of our nation's education system,
- 8:07Speaker 3: which is one of the reasons why I'm and I
- 8:10Speaker 3: explained this in the book why it is so vitally
- 8:13Speaker 3: important for us to reclaim control over our nation's public
- 8:18Speaker 3: education system. And if we don't do that, we will
- 8:22Speaker 3: go from the Golden Age right back to the Dark Age.
- 8:25Speaker 3: That's that's how quickly this this could happen. So I'll
- 8:30Speaker 3: give you an example of how ferocious this fight is
- 8:34Speaker 3: going to be in November. Coming was coming up next week.
- 8:38Speaker 3: We've got Alexandria Ocasio Cortes and Ayana Presley and several
- 8:44Speaker 3: other radical leftists that are coming to Memphis to campaign
- 8:47Speaker 3: for a guy by the name of Justin Pearson. We've
- 8:50Speaker 3: mentioned him before. He's the guy that he's a black dude.
- 8:54Speaker 3: He was educated at a very wealthy school in Maine,
- 9:00Speaker 3: and yet he talks like he's from the hood. He's
- 9:04Speaker 3: he is now a black English guy. If you watch,
- 9:08Speaker 3: if you listened to yesterday's show, you know what we're
- 9:10Speaker 3: talking about with the black English. And so Justin Pearson
- 9:14Speaker 3: he actually he used to talk whiter than me. I mean,
- 9:18Speaker 3: he had a great grasp on Standard English. But then
- 9:22Speaker 3: you know, he's back in Memphis and he's embraced this
- 9:25Speaker 3: street thug mentality and he actually got in the face
- 9:29Speaker 3: of a Tennessee Highway patrol officer inside the state Capitol
- 9:33Speaker 3: in Nashville. This happened a couple of months ago, you
- 9:35Speaker 3: might remember this, and he literally got into the face
- 9:39Speaker 3: of the white state trooper and screamed at him, called
- 9:43Speaker 3: him a mother effing boy. This guy is running for Congress,
- 9:49Speaker 3: and the Democrat Party sees this as an opportunity to
- 9:54Speaker 3: win this congressional seat, which is why they're sending down
- 9:57Speaker 3: AOC and the squad to Memphis to see next week.
- 10:01Speaker 3: So this is again, if this guy gets elected, I
- 10:04Speaker 3: don't think he will. There's a guy by the name
- 10:06Speaker 3: of Brent Taylor who is a rock solid conservative and
- 10:10Speaker 3: he's basically Donald Trump with a Southern accent. And I
- 10:14Speaker 3: will say that Brent Taylor more than likely will win,
- 10:18Speaker 3: but it is going to be a tough fight, especially
- 10:19Speaker 3: if the Democrats decide to nationalize the NiFe congressional race
- 10:23Speaker 3: in Tennessee. So again, this is happening all over America.
- 10:28Speaker 3: It's happening not just in the big cities like New
- 10:30Speaker 3: York or even Seattle, but it's happening everywhere. And that's
- 10:34Speaker 3: why I wrote this book. I want, sincerely want all
- 10:38Speaker 3: of you to read this, and it is over three
- 10:41Speaker 3: hundred pages. Dylan, you're in the book. Did I mention
- 10:44Speaker 3: that to you?
- 10:45Speaker 5: It's an honor. Yeah, I think you have.
- 10:47Speaker 3: I should mention that.
- 10:48Speaker 2: Again.
- 10:48Speaker 3: I'm trying to see, Well, it's.
- 10:51Speaker 5: Filling over here. He's slacking, you know.
- 10:53Speaker 3: Oh it's okay, okay, this is a pretty decent Yeah. No,
- 10:56Speaker 3: it's pretty decent.
- 10:57Speaker 5: Thank you.
- 10:58Speaker 3: But we've got we have all sorts of great uh.
- 11:02Speaker 3: And by the way, we had photographs as well. They publish,
- 11:04Speaker 3: they put the photos of me in the president. We
- 11:06Speaker 3: had a couple of photos of me and the president.
- 11:08Speaker 5: Uh.
- 11:08Speaker 3: And I greatly appreciate that. I want to read this
- 11:11Speaker 3: to you as we as we get ready to go
- 11:15Speaker 3: to break. This is from the opening of the book.
- 11:17Speaker 3: And again it's called the Golden Age, How Trump Saved America.
- 11:23Speaker 3: And I and I wrote this I and I want
- 11:26Speaker 3: to we're going to pick up here. And I I
- 11:28Speaker 3: framed this story as the Bible story of Shadrack Mishak
- 11:32Speaker 3: and a bed to go, the three Hebrew boys that
- 11:34Speaker 3: were thrown into the fiery furnace. And I wrote these
- 11:38Speaker 3: words that that the three Hebrew youngsters taught us a
- 11:42Speaker 3: lesson that should give us comfort in these difficult days.
- 11:46Speaker 3: Faith requires us to trust God no matter our circumstances,
- 11:51Speaker 3: even even if that means sacrificing our lives. Because, again
- 11:56Speaker 3: going back to the Old Testament, those three Hebrew children
- 11:59Speaker 3: had no idea, idea what was going to happen once
- 12:02Speaker 3: they were thrown into the fiery furnace. They thought they
- 12:04Speaker 3: were going to lose their lives. I want on to
- 12:06Speaker 3: write this. I can't imagine that Charlie Kirk woke up
- 12:09Speaker 3: on that awful, terrible day and said to himself, I'm
- 12:12Speaker 3: going to be martyred today at Utah Valley University. He
- 12:15Speaker 3: always knew there was a risk, but it was a
- 12:17Speaker 3: risk worth taking because Charlie was doing exactly what God
- 12:22Speaker 3: wanted him to do. President Trump has taken great risks
- 12:26Speaker 3: and put his own life on the line for this
- 12:28Speaker 3: nation and for the America First Movement. He could have
- 12:32Speaker 3: easily retired in twenty twenty and spent the rest of
- 12:34Speaker 3: his years playing golf around the world, but he was
- 12:37Speaker 3: drawn to a greater cause, and I suspect he answered
- 12:42Speaker 3: the call of a much higher power. All that is
- 12:46Speaker 3: to say, there is a price to pay for taking
- 12:49Speaker 3: a stand. Freedom comes with a cost, and tens of
- 12:53Speaker 3: thousands of our fellow countrymen had paid the ultimate price
- 12:56Speaker 3: to ensure that the star spangled banner still waves over
- 12:59Speaker 3: the Land of the Free and the home of the brave.
- 13:02Speaker 3: We are now living in a period known as the
- 13:05Speaker 3: Golden Age, a time of great prosperity and hope and yes,
- 13:09Speaker 3: common sense. There was a similar time in the early
- 13:12Speaker 3: part of the twentieth century known as the Roaring twenties,
- 13:15Speaker 3: But the nineteen twenties gave way to the Great Depression,
- 13:18Speaker 3: and therein lies a cautionary tale. The Golden Age is
- 13:23Speaker 3: not a destination, it is an aspiration. We must fight
- 13:27Speaker 3: for our freedom every day. We cannot take it for granted.
- 13:31Speaker 3: We must raise up our children to follow the teachings
- 13:34Speaker 3: of Christ. We must embrace a strong work ethic, and
- 13:37Speaker 3: like those three Hebrew Boys, we must always keep our
- 13:41Speaker 3: eyes focused on providence, knowing that God has blessed us.
- 13:46Speaker 3: As President Trump declared in his inaugural address, we must
- 13:50Speaker 3: stand bravely, love proudly, and dream boldly. And if we do,
- 13:57Speaker 3: the future will indeed be ours, and our Golden Age
- 14:01Speaker 3: will have just begun. Well, Dylana, that was actually pretty good.
- 14:07Speaker 3: But if I do say so much or anything, right,
- 14:10Speaker 3: I mean, I don't want to too my own horn.
- 14:11Speaker 5: I'll just be the one to say it was good.
- 14:13Speaker 3: That's just a couple of paragraphs. That's three hundred and
- 14:16Speaker 3: seven pages. Here it's called The Golden Age. And you

- 16:06Speaker 7: One of the most polarizing political figures in American history
- 16:09Speaker 7: gets a full scale defense. The America two fifty film
- 16:13Speaker 7: series presents Vindicating Trump Go inside the Battles accusations, media storms,
- 16:20Speaker 7: and legal fights. That's shaped and historic comeback story. It's
- 16:24Speaker 7: vindicating Trump this weekend Saturday and Sunday at seven pm
- 16:28Speaker 7: Eastern on Salem News Channel.
- 16:43Speaker 3: All Right, welcome back to the todd Serns Radio Show again.
- 16:48Speaker 3: Get your copy of The Golden Age wherever you buy
- 16:51Speaker 3: your books online at Amazon, Barnes and Noble and books
- 16:55Speaker 3: a million. Well cram Platner, folks in Maine, what a crazy,
- 17:03Speaker 3: crazy story. But yesterday grand Platner deciding to well pull
- 17:09Speaker 3: the plug is dropping his campaign to be the next
- 17:14Speaker 3: senator from Maine. And I guess you know it's interesting here,
- 17:21Speaker 3: I part of you know, sometimes you want to feel
- 17:24Speaker 3: sorry for people. I have a hard time feeling sorry
- 17:26Speaker 3: for grand Platner. However, this is a guy who did
- 17:30Speaker 3: every single thing that the Democrats required of him. It's
- 17:34Speaker 3: not like any of this was a surprise. As a
- 17:38Speaker 3: matter of fact, we know from interviews with top top
- 17:42Speaker 3: Democrat political operatives they knew about all of this. They
- 17:46Speaker 3: knew about his background, they knew about the Nazi tattoo,
- 17:49Speaker 3: they knew about all of the allegations surrounding rape and
- 17:53Speaker 3: sexual assault and mistreating women. They knew all about the allegations,
- 17:58Speaker 3: but they still gave him the go ahead. So as
- 18:03Speaker 3: much as this is on Grand Planner, it just seems
- 18:06Speaker 3: to me that there's more of it on the Democrat Party.
- 18:11Speaker 3: But in spite of all of this, what really blows
- 18:14Speaker 3: my mind is that an overwhelming number of the Democrats,
- 18:18Speaker 3: even after all of this came out, an overwhelming number
- 18:21Speaker 3: of Democrats in Maine actually still support this guy and
- 18:26Speaker 3: they think he's okay. What does that tell you about
- 18:31Speaker 3: the Democrats in Maine. I'll tell you what. If you're
- 18:36Speaker 3: a dad, there's no way you should let your daughter
- 18:39Speaker 3: go out with a male Democrat. I'm just telling you
- 18:42Speaker 3: right now. By the way, now three three possibilities to
- 18:47Speaker 3: replace Graham Platina on the Democrat side of the al
- 18:49Speaker 3: First question, have you ever raped anyone? That would be
- 18:53Speaker 3: my first question? Nine oh one two six to zero
- 18:56Speaker 3: five nine two six, Just rip that band aid right
- 18:59Speaker 3: off back.
- 19:21Speaker 8: How did you find Graham Platner?
- 19:25Speaker 9: Well, so, I mean, we went through thousands and thousands
- 19:27Speaker 9: of prospects. Then you know, Leam pulled up this video
- 19:31Speaker 9: of this guy with an oyster farm.
- 19:33Speaker 10: My name is Graham Platner and I live in Sullivan, Maine,
- 19:36Speaker 10: the owner of Frenchman Bay Oyster Company.
- 19:38Speaker 9: And then she pulled up his FEC history and saw,
- 19:42Speaker 9: you know, the money had given to Bernie Sanders and
- 19:45Speaker 9: you know some other people, and that was enough information
- 19:48Speaker 9: to know that we had the best prospect that we'd
- 19:52Speaker 9: maybe ever seen.
- 19:54Speaker 5: How did you go about vetting him?
- 19:56Speaker 9: And why did you We paid a Yeah, we paid
- 19:59Speaker 9: a We paid an firm a whole chunk of money
- 20:01Speaker 9: and got some stuff back. Did the vetting process turn
- 20:06Speaker 9: up the tattoo that became so controversial? No, the Reddit posts?
- 20:13Speaker 9: Did that turn up in the vetting process. The firm
- 20:18Speaker 9: sent us a thing and it had some of the PA,
- 20:22Speaker 9: but it didn't have all of them.
- 20:24Speaker 8: How did you think your way through the fact that
- 20:27Speaker 8: he had posted these things on social media?
- 20:31Speaker 9: I said, none of this? Well or should stop him
- 20:33Speaker 9: from becoming a US senator?
- 20:37Speaker 3: Well there you have it. Why am I not surprised
- 20:41Speaker 3: a guy that sounds like that is the guy who
- 20:44Speaker 3: vetted Koream Planner.
- 20:45Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
- 20:46Speaker 5: Dylan, I can't I can't tell if he's crying or
- 20:51Speaker 5: if he's just if he doesn't have a strong vocal cord.
- 20:54Speaker 5: I don't really know what's happening.
- 20:55Speaker 3: It's terrible. So the guy you just heard, there's a
- 20:58Speaker 3: guy at a gal that's Dan Morath and Leanne Fann
- 21:03Speaker 3: and they are radical progressive recruiters of economic populists. So
- 21:09Speaker 3: they went out and found this guy to run. And
- 21:13Speaker 3: then there was a third person involved. His name was
- 21:16Speaker 3: or Is Morris Katz, and he told mister Plattner that
- 21:21Speaker 3: he was the one, a hero of the movement, a
- 21:25Speaker 3: historical figure who could be leading a revolution. The New
- 21:29Speaker 3: York Times just published a deep dive into what they're
- 21:34Speaker 3: calling a slow rolling disaster inside the implosion of the
- 21:39Speaker 3: Platinir campaign. But folks, they all knew it. This is
- 21:44Speaker 3: who the Democrats are. They have no morality. This is
- 21:48Speaker 3: a party. Go back to twenty twelve. I was there.
- 21:51Speaker 3: I was there at the DNC meeting in Charlotte, North Carolina,
- 21:55Speaker 3: inside the arena when they tried to vote God out
- 22:00Speaker 3: out of the party platform. I kid you not. As
- 22:02Speaker 3: a matter of fact, the first vote, there was a
- 22:05Speaker 3: huge crash of thunder. I am not making this up.
- 22:09Speaker 3: There were severe storms that suddenly hit Charlotte when they
- 22:14Speaker 3: decided to vote God out of the party. These people
- 22:18Speaker 3: have no moral They got no morals at all. So no,
- 22:23Speaker 3: I'm not surprised that they went down this path. But Dylan,
- 22:26Speaker 3: we're going to help out the people here. Democrats, they've
- 22:29Speaker 3: already started the vetting process. And as I said, number
- 22:32Speaker 3: one on the list for any Democrat Party candidate, have
- 22:36Speaker 3: you ever raped anyone?
- 22:38Speaker 11: And yep?
- 22:40Speaker 5: Are you on any any lists?
- 22:42Speaker 3: Are you on any list that are currently kept by
- 22:46Speaker 3: law enforcement? Do you have to stay what five hundred
- 22:50Speaker 3: feet away from elementary schools?
- 22:52Speaker 12: Yeah?
- 22:52Speaker 3: Yeah, those are the first three questions.
- 22:54Speaker 5: Honestly, Yeah, this is a it's a sad reality.
- 22:58Speaker 3: Well do you wear pinks garbs?
- 23:01Speaker 2: Oh?
- 23:01Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's special protext. We are, it's crazy, this
- 23:07Speaker 3: is insane. But anyway, but this is all of the
- 23:11Speaker 3: Democratic Party. They knew what they were getting. The whole
- 23:13Speaker 3: point is they knew what they were getting. So this guy,
- 23:17Speaker 3: maybe he's changed his ways. I don't know. I wouldn't
- 23:20Speaker 3: trust this guy to shuck an oyster, but you know,
- 23:23Speaker 3: that's just me. But the bigger problem is the Democrats
- 23:28Speaker 3: in the state of Maine think that his behavior was okay,
- 23:32Speaker 3: or at least it did not disqualify him from serving
- 23:35Speaker 3: in public office. I mean, what does that say about
- 23:39Speaker 3: the average Democrat and America ladies and gentlemen. Nine oh
- 23:41Speaker 3: one two six zero five nine two six is our
- 23:45Speaker 3: telephone number. That's nine oh one two six zero five
- 23:48Speaker 3: nine two six. Interesting story out out of Tennessee. Senator
- 23:53Speaker 3: Marshall Blackburn and maybe our Tennessee listers are going to
- 23:56Speaker 3: have to help me out on this now, full disclosure,
- 24:00Speaker 3: And I know a lot of people are shocked by this,
- 24:03Speaker 3: but it's I just want to go through this and
- 24:06Speaker 3: explain where I'm at on the Tennessee governor's race. Early on,
- 24:11Speaker 3: I endorsed Senator Marshall Blackburn, and I still stand by
- 24:15Speaker 3: that endorsement. That being said, we have interviewed both of
- 24:20Speaker 3: her opponents on this radio program, and every time we do,
- 24:24Speaker 3: the candidates come away somewhat surprised that I was fair
- 24:28Speaker 3: and balanced. But that's my job. You know, I can
- 24:32Speaker 3: set aside and ask the tough questions. I don't work
- 24:35Speaker 3: off anybody's talking points, and I've been pretty adamant that
- 24:39Speaker 3: Marshall Blackburn needs to debate, and the reason why is
- 24:44Speaker 3: I believe that she would win the debate. Now, you
- 24:46Speaker 3: may disagree with that but I still think she ought
- 24:49Speaker 3: to debate. I think any candidate running for office should
- 24:54Speaker 3: be should be debating their opponents, and should be answering
- 24:58Speaker 3: questions that are completely unscripted. As a matter of fact, Monday,
- 25:03Speaker 3: I'm going to be moderating a debate with all four
- 25:07Speaker 3: of the Republicans running in Tennessee's ninth congressional district primary,
- 25:12Speaker 3: and it is going to be a very lively, ferocious debate.
- 25:16Speaker 3: I am looking forward to it, and I think, look,
- 25:19Speaker 3: I think this helps the candidates and it makes them
- 25:24Speaker 3: stronger candidates in the general election. I think it also
- 25:28Speaker 3: is a reminder that you're handed nothing in this country
- 25:32Speaker 3: on a silver platter. You got to work for it.
- 25:34Speaker 3: You got to work for people's votes. I think it's
- 25:36Speaker 3: also good for the voters because they need to hear
- 25:40Speaker 3: from They need to hear from their candidates. They need
- 25:44Speaker 3: to hear what these people believe, and they also need
- 25:48Speaker 3: to be you know, called out on things sometimes. So anyway,
- 25:52Speaker 3: here's what gets me about Blackburn. There are a lot
- 25:54Speaker 3: of people in Tennessee that just do not like Senator
- 25:57Speaker 3: Marshall Blackburn, and I can't figure out why. I mean,
- 26:00Speaker 3: when you look at her, voting record. Her voting record
- 26:03Speaker 3: is rock solid. I mean, she's been a pretty ferocious
- 26:07Speaker 3: defender of Donald J. Trump. She's been a very loyal
- 26:11Speaker 3: I mean, she has served this state with distinction and
- 26:15Speaker 3: going all the way back to the state House, she
- 26:17Speaker 3: was part of the team that stopped She fought against
- 26:21Speaker 3: her own party and stopped a state income tax from
- 26:24Speaker 3: being imposed on the citizens of Tennessee. She was a
- 26:29Speaker 3: great congress went As a matter of fact, there have
- 26:31Speaker 3: been talk at one point in her career of her
- 26:33Speaker 3: possibly being a vice presidential running mate. But now all
- 26:38Speaker 3: of a sudden, it's like people are calling her a rhino.
- 26:41Speaker 3: I could someone explain to me why why you say that?
- 26:45Speaker 3: And I look, I get it. You're you're a supporter
- 26:48Speaker 3: of John Rose, Okay, you know, and John Rose is like, well,
- 26:52Speaker 3: you know, she's not She's not one hundred percent Trump.
- 26:56Speaker 3: Well you know John Rose was hanging out with Mike Pince.
- 26:58Speaker 3: What does that make John Rowe. I'm just using that
- 27:02Speaker 3: as an example. So anyway, there's been a lot of
- 27:06Speaker 3: controversy in Tennessee because Marshall Blackbrint refuses to debate Congressman
- 27:11Speaker 3: John Rose, who is also running to be governor. We
- 27:15Speaker 3: had Congressman Rose on the program, was that this week?
- 27:18Speaker 3: It was this week. It's been a long week. We
- 27:20Speaker 3: had him on this week. I asked Congressman Rose, would
- 27:24Speaker 3: you be willing to debate State Representative Moni Fritz. Nope,
- 27:27Speaker 3: can't do it. He's not a viable candidate. So look,
- 27:30Speaker 3: you can't go out there. That's what we call hypocrisy,
- 27:33Speaker 3: by the way, or double standard. So if you're going
- 27:37Speaker 3: to get out there and you're going to say, well,
- 27:38Speaker 3: I'm not going to debate you know, Marshall. You know,
- 27:40Speaker 3: I'm not going to debate Monti Fritz, But then you're
- 27:43Speaker 3: going to call out Marshall Blackbrin. You can't do that.
- 27:45Speaker 3: You just can't do that. So anyway, I'm just I'm
- 27:49Speaker 3: just curious why you folks in Tennessee are so adverse
- 27:52Speaker 3: to Marshall Blackbrin. It just doesn't make any sense to me.
- 27:55Speaker 3: All that to say, she sat down for an interview
- 27:58Speaker 3: in Memphis with a a news anchor here by the
- 28:01Speaker 3: a guy by the name of Joe Birch, and I
- 28:04Speaker 3: don't know the guy. I've never I don't believe i've
- 28:06Speaker 3: ever met. The guy seems nice enough on TV. But man,
- 28:11Speaker 3: he tore into Marshall Blackburn like a Thanksgiving Day turkey,
- 28:16Speaker 3: And I want you to listen, he asked her. It's
- 28:19Speaker 3: a really nasty It was a nasty interview, is what
- 28:22Speaker 3: It really was a nasty interview and it was really unfair.
- 28:28Speaker 3: But I want you to listen to the question. He
- 28:30Speaker 3: asked Marshall Blackburn about her post. There was a social
- 28:35Speaker 3: media post on wanting Tennessee to be the most Christian
- 28:37Speaker 3: conservative state. Take a listen.
- 28:39Speaker 10: We saw a Facebook post you made last night. It
- 28:42Speaker 10: was you or maybe your staff made it, but it
- 28:44Speaker 10: said quote Tennessee should be the number one Christian conservative
- 28:48Speaker 10: state in America. Did you post that?
- 28:50Speaker 13: Our team posted that last night.
- 28:52Speaker 3: Yes, the team posted.
- 28:54Speaker 10: Well, how do you reckon your Christian conservative point of
- 28:57Speaker 10: view with Jesus' command to his followers to love all people,
- 29:01Speaker 10: especially elevating foreigners and outsiders to the same status as
- 29:06Speaker 10: their neighbors. So you've heavily promoted your Federal Expansion Act
- 29:10Speaker 10: to grant bonuses to local law enforcements enforcement partnering with ICE.
- 29:15Speaker 10: As governor, would you mandate that all Tennessee counties participate
- 29:19Speaker 10: in these programs with ICE and how would the state
- 29:22Speaker 10: absorb long term detention costs if federal funding fluctuates.
- 29:26Speaker 13: Tendency should be the number one state when it comes
- 29:29Speaker 13: to deporting illegal aliens and sending the messages to gangs
- 29:34Speaker 13: and cartels, just like we've done here in Memphis. If
- 29:38Speaker 13: you come here, if you traffic drugs, if you traffic
- 29:42Speaker 13: human beings, we are going to find you. We are
- 29:46Speaker 13: going to detain you, we will lock you up, We're
- 29:49Speaker 13: going to prosecute you, and we are going to deport you.
- 29:54Speaker 13: And indeed, what you want to do is to make
- 30:00Speaker 13: certain that you are supporting law enforcement in this effort.
- 30:04Speaker 13: I've been endorsed by law enforcement organizations and I am
- 30:09Speaker 13: grateful for that support. As I mentioned, jobs, the economy, wages,
- 30:17Speaker 13: and public safety and education. Those are the top three
- 30:21Speaker 13: things that Tennesseeans are talking about. When you talk about
- 30:25Speaker 13: Memphians and Shelby Countyon's public safety, we hear it over
- 30:30Speaker 13: and over. They want to make certain that our communities
- 30:33Speaker 13: are safe, that if there are criminals, that they are apprehended,
- 30:37Speaker 13: they are locked up, they are off the streets.
- 30:40Speaker 10: But how do you reckon all that with Jesus command
- 30:44Speaker 10: to love one another?
- 30:45Speaker 4: Especially it is.
- 30:46Speaker 13: You know, I've got to tell you. I don't know
- 30:49Speaker 13: if you've ever been to the southern border when Joe
- 30:52Speaker 13: Biden had that open, and if you have talked to
- 30:57Speaker 13: people that we're being trafficked across that border. Most girls
- 31:02Speaker 13: who were ten years old were getting pregnancy tests. Most
- 31:06Speaker 13: women were being raped, children were being abused. There was
- 31:13Speaker 13: a horrible, horrible practice, and it was called child recycling,
- 31:18Speaker 13: where children would come across with somebody and then they
- 31:22Speaker 13: would go back over. Indeed, the Biden administration stopped doing
- 31:26Speaker 13: DNA testing to protect these children that were being trafficked.
- 31:31Speaker 13: And you know why they did it. They said it
- 31:33Speaker 13: took too long, forty five minutes, forty five minutes to
- 31:40Speaker 13: save a child. I was astounded. I got that DNA
- 31:46Speaker 13: testing reinstated and fingerprinting reinstated so that we could protect children.
- 31:54Speaker 13: And I work every day to make certain that children
- 31:58Speaker 13: are not being trafficked. The Memphis Task Force has has
- 32:02Speaker 13: found one hundred and fifty seven missing children. It is
- 32:08Speaker 13: not compassionate to allow drug traffickers to run through our communities.
- 32:15Speaker 13: It is not compassionate to let human traffickers take our
- 32:21Speaker 13: kids and traffic them. The compassionate thing to do is
- 32:26Speaker 13: to stop those practices.
- 32:28Speaker 3: No, I think what's overwhelming for me is the ignorance
- 32:32Speaker 3: of the news anchor. He has no theological background at all.
- 32:38Speaker 3: Guys a Catholic, and I'm not surprised because the Catholic
- 32:43Speaker 3: those Catholic charities have been responsible for promoting the invasion
- 32:49Speaker 3: of our nation by the illegals. So, but what he
- 32:52Speaker 3: was getting it, well, Jesus, hold on, I've got to
- 32:55Speaker 3: do this right here, because he's got the fake news
- 32:58Speaker 3: anchor voice on.
- 33:00Speaker 5: Now.
- 33:00Speaker 3: Senator Blackburn, how do you reckon, Senator Blackbird, how do
- 33:05Speaker 3: you reckon the Bible's teachings that Jesus said we are
- 33:10Speaker 3: to love one another and especially the foreigner. Well, that
- 33:15Speaker 3: doesn't mean we have to allow the foreigners to come
- 33:17Speaker 3: into our community, into our nation, Joe birch and rape
- 33:22Speaker 3: and pillage and plunder and run people over in semi trucks,
- 33:26Speaker 3: you maron. So I'm going to try to help him
- 33:30Speaker 3: out here. This is one of the reasons why we
- 33:32Speaker 3: have a great sponsor here called My Faith Assistant. It's
- 33:36Speaker 3: a great online sort of a Christian chat GPT run
- 33:41Speaker 3: by our friend doctor Michael Yusef. And you can go
- 33:44Speaker 3: in and you can ask what does the Bible say
- 33:46Speaker 3: about a specific issue? And we asked two two questions.
- 33:51Speaker 3: First of all, what does the Bible say about having borders?
- 33:54Speaker 3: Because if you listen to someone like Joe Birch from
- 33:57Speaker 3: Channel five WMCTV, you would come away thinking that it's
- 34:01Speaker 3: a sin for a country to have a border, and
- 34:04Speaker 3: it is not. As a matter of fact, God actually
- 34:07Speaker 3: establishes national boundaries. Scripture teaches us that in the Old
- 34:12Speaker 3: and the New Testament, in the Book of Acts, chapter seventeen,
- 34:16Speaker 3: and he made from one man every nation of mankind
- 34:21Speaker 3: to live on all the face of the earth, having
- 34:23Speaker 3: determined allotted periods and the boundaries of their dwelling place.
- 34:30Speaker 3: In Deuteronomy, when the Most High gave to the nations
- 34:33Speaker 3: their inheritance, when he divided mankind, he fixed the borders
- 34:37Speaker 3: of the peoples according to the number of the sons
- 34:39Speaker 3: of God. You say, okay, but what about what about
- 34:43Speaker 3: what he said about well, I reckon, I reckon, Jesus said,
- 34:48Speaker 3: loved one. Of course he did, But that doesn't mean
- 34:50Speaker 3: you've got to disobey the laws of the land Jesus.
- 34:55Speaker 3: Jesus did command us to love our neighbors, but they
- 34:58Speaker 3: got to stay on their side of the film. As
- 35:02Speaker 3: a matter of fact, in the Book of Romans, the
- 35:04Speaker 3: Bible says, let every person be subject to the governing authorities.
- 35:09Speaker 3: There is no authority except from God, and those that
- 35:11Speaker 3: exist have been instituted by God, for he is God's servant.
- 35:15Speaker 3: For your good, the Bible says we are to be
- 35:20Speaker 3: kind and show compassion. But nowhere in the Bible does
- 35:24Speaker 3: it say Jesus commanded us to welcome illegal immigrants into
- 35:28Speaker 3: our nation by the by the thousands, or by the
- 35:31Speaker 3: tens or the tens of thousands. Nowhere, not at all.
- 35:36Speaker 3: And it's incredibly unfair because this guy where he's clearly
- 35:39Speaker 3: working off somebody's left wing talking points, and it was
- 35:43Speaker 3: it was a low blow. It was a low blow,
- 35:46Speaker 3: And I thought the senator answered the question pretty directly.
- 35:49Speaker 3: All right, we got to take a break here. Nine
- 35:50Speaker 3: oh one two six zero five nine two six our number.
- 35:53Speaker 3: That's nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
- 35:56Speaker 3: By the way, Joe Burch, what about all those legal
- 35:58Speaker 3: immigrants trying to come in here? You want to talk
- 36:01Speaker 3: about compassion, What about the compassion for them? Because every
- 36:04Speaker 3: time an illegal crosses the border. That means the legal
- 36:08Speaker 3: people here have to wait another day, another year to
- 36:11Speaker 3: get across the border legally. We'll be right back, all right,
- 36:24Speaker 3: Welcome back to the Ton Stearns Radio Show. Oh exciting
- 36:28Speaker 3: news for those of you that are traveling down to
- 36:31Speaker 3: South Florida. Maybe you're going to be landing at what

- 37:29Speaker 3: as well, hang time, everybody. We'll be right back.
- 37:46Speaker 1: Blve from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's
- 37:50Speaker 1: common sense conservative commentary from Todd Stars American.
- 38:03Speaker 3: And hello everybody. Welcome to the Todd Starnes Radio Show.
- 38:06Speaker 3: What an honor to have you with us today, and
- 38:08Speaker 3: thank you for listening to us and watching us wherever
- 38:11Speaker 3: you might be across America. Of course, we're broadcasting now
- 38:15Speaker 3: on Facebook Live, Rumble YouTube and getting a very very
- 38:20Speaker 3: large broadcast audience, so welcome aboard. However you might be
- 38:25Speaker 3: hanging out with us today, write down our telephone number.
- 38:29Speaker 3: You will need this if you plan on calling in today.
- 38:31Speaker 3: Nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
- 38:34Speaker 3: Again that number, nine oh one two six zero five
- 38:37Speaker 3: nine two six. Well, I want to bring into the
- 38:40Speaker 3: conversation our good friend from the Great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania,
- 38:45Speaker 3: Congressman Scott Perry and Congressman before we gets started, a
- 38:48Speaker 3: well done on the big booth the pavilion at the
- 38:51Speaker 3: Great American State Fair Man. You guys had a lot
- 38:54Speaker 3: of folks standing in line.
- 38:57Speaker 2: We did.
- 38:58Speaker 15: Todd, great to be with you, and you know it's
- 39:01Speaker 15: just look, it's a good news story. In a time
- 39:04Speaker 15: and a world where there's a lot of division, right
- 39:07Speaker 15: you know, Senator McCormick, the Republican and from Pennsylvania, Senator Fetterman,
- 39:12Speaker 15: the Democrat from Pennsylvania got together with some local businesses
- 39:16Speaker 15: and threw it together at the last minute. And of
- 39:19Speaker 15: course that's part of the story, because it was our
- 39:21Speaker 15: governor that said he was not going to participate. Pennsylvania,
- 39:25Speaker 15: the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, where so much of the two
- 39:29Speaker 15: fiftieth occurred two hundred and fifty years ago, was not
- 39:33Speaker 15: going to be part of it. And of course those
- 39:35Speaker 15: two senators said, you know, look, we're going to do
- 39:37Speaker 15: the right thing for the country. We're going to do
- 39:39Speaker 15: the right thing for the commonwealth. Business has stepped up.
- 39:43Speaker 15: A local guy right where I live, stepped up with
- 39:45Speaker 15: his collection and brought it down there, and of course
- 39:48Speaker 15: people wanted to see it. And so that's the wonderful
- 39:52Speaker 15: news that even in a society that's divided, where some
- 39:55Speaker 15: of our leaders are petty, good things can happen.
- 39:58Speaker 3: You see, I'm with you their congressmen, and I'm still
- 40:02Speaker 3: working off the euphoria of what happened last weekend because
- 40:06Speaker 3: it tells me in small towns, medium sized towns, big cities.
- 40:11Speaker 3: People were wearing the red, white and blue. They were celebrating,
- 40:14Speaker 3: they were loving America. And it just tells me there
- 40:17Speaker 3: are more freedom loving patriots in America than there are
- 40:21Speaker 3: those you know, eleven governors who had decided to thumb
- 40:25Speaker 3: their nose at the country.
- 40:28Speaker 15: Yeah, I mean, look, this is America, Todd. You know,
- 40:30Speaker 15: sometimes people have disagreements. We disagree with each other, we
- 40:34Speaker 15: disagree on policy. But the one thing that we knew,
- 40:37Speaker 15: at least in the recent past, is that we all
- 40:40Speaker 15: love the country. Now, of course, we have some in
- 40:43Speaker 15: current times. We have some people that are even being
- 40:45Speaker 15: elected to office who do not love the country, and
- 40:49Speaker 15: it's an opportunity to show them why America is great.
- 40:53Speaker 15: You can disagree with each other, you can disagree with
- 40:55Speaker 15: the policy, but love the country because there's no place
- 40:58Speaker 15: like it in the world.
- 40:59Speaker 3: Exactly, Congressman. I noticed this morning. I always hop on
- 41:03Speaker 3: the Xpeed and I am stunned by the story that
- 41:07Speaker 3: you and your team shared. Apparently, all new cars that
- 41:11Speaker 3: are being sold in the European Union are going to
- 41:13Speaker 3: be required to include an infra red camera that monitors
- 41:18Speaker 3: the driver's eyes and face for distraction. Connorsman, this is insane,
- 41:24Speaker 3: and you wonder how long is it going to be
- 41:26Speaker 3: before we start seeing something like that happened here in America.
- 41:30Speaker 15: Well, look, one of the major manufacturers, American manufacturer, just
- 41:34Speaker 15: filed for patents for the same stuff. They're going to
- 41:37Speaker 15: be monitoring your eyes, your heart rate, your respirations, of course,
- 41:40Speaker 15: your conversation. You know, cars as of twenty twenty seven
- 41:44Speaker 15: in America are required to have a kill switch in
- 41:47Speaker 15: them so that the car can determine whether it likes
- 41:50Speaker 15: you're driving or not and shut off the car. I
- 41:53Speaker 15: had an amendment to get rid of it. Unfortunately, all
- 41:55Speaker 15: the Democrats and I think about nineteen Republicans voted against
- 41:58Speaker 15: me on that I want to live in a surveillance state.
- 42:01Speaker 15: We like technology, we like what it provides, we like
- 42:04Speaker 15: the safety and you know, the use of the tools.
- 42:07Speaker 15: But we also all took an oath to the Constitution,
- 42:11Speaker 15: and the Fourth Amendment says that we're not going to
- 42:13Speaker 15: be subject to unlawful, unwarranted search and seizure. And that's
- 42:17Speaker 15: exactly what this is, todd So it is a brave
- 42:19Speaker 15: new world and we're all going to have to weigh in.
- 42:23Speaker 3: We don't need the government in the backseat as a driver.
- 42:27Speaker 3: That's what concerns me here. Well, that's exactly right.
- 42:31Speaker 15: I mean you can imagine, you know, the car gets
- 42:34Speaker 15: used to your driving because it's got all this AI
- 42:37Speaker 15: and computers and so on and so forth, and of
- 42:39Speaker 15: course all the sensors we just talked about, and then
- 42:42Speaker 15: something happens that's different. And I pick a time where
- 42:46Speaker 15: it's the middle of the night and a young man
- 42:47Speaker 15: has taken his pregnant wife to the hospital in a
- 42:49Speaker 15: hurry and he's driving differently than he normally does. Or
- 42:52Speaker 15: a young lady who's being stalked by somebody who follows
- 42:55Speaker 15: her out of the store and she's driving in a
- 42:58Speaker 15: hurry unlike she normally does. The police station and your
- 43:01Speaker 15: car shuts off for you, No, thank you.
- 43:04Speaker 5: We will determine.
- 43:04Speaker 15: We don't need the government figuring that out for us.
- 43:07Speaker 3: Congressman Scott Perry on our Patriot Mobile Newsmaker line. Of course, Congressman,
- 43:11Speaker 3: we are all very concerned, as is President Trump about
- 43:14Speaker 3: the Save America Act. Ye, any new intel that you
- 43:18Speaker 3: can share with us, Well.
- 43:20Speaker 15: Look, the pressure keeps building. We're gonna move it again
- 43:23Speaker 15: in the House, we're gonna try to do some stuff
- 43:25Speaker 15: on reconciliation. It really continues to come down to the Senate,
- 43:29Speaker 15: who keeps telling us they're trying as hard as they can,
- 43:32Speaker 15: but they don't have the votes. And with that, I say, Todd,
- 43:35Speaker 15: they're not trying as hard as they can. They've been
- 43:37Speaker 15: out for weeks. If they were trying as hard as
- 43:40Speaker 15: they could, they'd be in all those weeks putting it
- 43:42Speaker 15: on the floor every single day. They'd be debating it,
- 43:45Speaker 15: they'd be doing the standing filibuster, and they'd be instead
- 43:48Speaker 15: of telling us they don't have the votes, they'd be
- 43:50Speaker 15: showing us by putting it on the floor every day,
- 43:53Speaker 15: forcing Chuck Schumer, Elizabeth Warren and all those nutty Democrats
- 43:57Speaker 15: to vote no against their own constituents and the wishes
- 44:00Speaker 15: of the American people. If they were doing that and
- 44:03Speaker 15: said we're trying everything we can, I believe them, But
- 44:05Speaker 15: right now I don't see it. So the House is
- 44:08Speaker 15: going to try and force them to do it. And
- 44:11Speaker 15: we need the American people, all of them, to not
- 44:13Speaker 15: get tired, to not get weary of the fight, to
- 44:16Speaker 15: not just throw up their hands and say what can
- 44:18Speaker 15: you do? But to call your senator every day and
- 44:21Speaker 15: demand a vote on it.
- 44:22Speaker 3: Yeah, is this more of a leadership thing? I just
- 44:26Speaker 3: got the vibe that Senate leadership is not on board
- 44:30Speaker 3: completely with the President's agenda. Are you sensing that at all?
- 44:35Speaker 15: Well, in many occasions, this is one of them. I
- 44:38Speaker 15: do sense that because and look, I'm sure there are
- 44:41Speaker 15: some members, even the Republican side, that don't want to
- 44:44Speaker 15: vote for things cause, like, get it, they don't like
- 44:46Speaker 15: President Trump. I mean, you can imagine Senator Cassidy, maybe
- 44:50Speaker 15: Senator Cornyn got a burr under the saddle now and
- 44:53Speaker 15: just don't want to help the president. But for goodness sake,
- 44:56Speaker 15: help your country. Don't make it personal. Let your ego
- 44:59Speaker 15: put your you go aside. But at the same time,
- 45:02Speaker 15: John Thune, can't let them hide behind. We don't have
- 45:05Speaker 15: the votes. Don't tell us, show us if Cornyn, Cassidy, McConnell,
- 45:11Speaker 15: whoever don't want to vote, yes, well let's see it.
- 45:13Speaker 15: Let's see who's on our side and who's not on
- 45:15Speaker 15: our side.
- 45:16Speaker 3: Well said Congressman, before I let you go. In addition
- 45:20Speaker 3: to being a national radio host, I happen to own
- 45:22Speaker 3: a news radio station k w A M and Memphis, Tennessee.
- 45:26Speaker 3: We are an AM radio station, and of course there
- 45:30Speaker 3: is a ferocious fight right now the National Association of
- 45:33Speaker 3: Broadcasters heading to Capitol Hill, and we're urging members of
- 45:38Speaker 3: Congress to get behind the AM for Every Vehicle Act.
- 45:42Speaker 3: You know, a lot of these manufacturers want to remove
- 45:45Speaker 3: AM radio out of the vehicle. We would love to
- 45:48Speaker 3: get you on board with our plans on radio.
- 45:52Speaker 15: Of that, Todd, I'm an AM listener. It's course, when
- 45:55Speaker 15: things go bad, that's where a lot of people turn
- 45:58Speaker 15: to for their their information. And you know, when the
- 46:02Speaker 15: satellite quits, you're gonna need to turn to old fashion.
- 46:04Speaker 15: And I would say to the car manufacturers, instead of
- 46:07Speaker 15: forcing me to buy a camera, laye assist and all
- 46:10Speaker 15: the other features that I can't afford and don't think
- 46:13Speaker 15: I need, give me the one that I want.
- 46:15Speaker 3: How about that? I love that. That's great. Well, God
- 46:18Speaker 3: bless you, Congressman for doing that. As a radio station owner,
- 46:21Speaker 3: I greatly appreciate it, because we really do believe AM
- 46:24Speaker 3: radio matters in this country.
- 46:26Speaker 5: So it sure does.
- 46:28Speaker 3: Congressman. God bless you. Always. Great to see you, and
- 46:31Speaker 3: thanks for fighting the good fight for us. God bless you.
- 46:34Speaker 3: You take care Todd. All right, there you go, ladies
- 46:36Speaker 3: and gentlemen. Congressman Scott Perry, one of the good guys
- 46:39Speaker 3: on Capitol Hill. By the way, we do need your
- 46:42Speaker 3: help on this, ladies and gentlemen. AM radio is in
- 46:45Speaker 3: the crosshairs of many of these automobile manufacturers, and we
- 46:50Speaker 3: need to make sure that AM radio stays in your
- 46:54Speaker 3: car and all of the new cars that are that
- 46:57Speaker 3: are being built in America. So here's what you want
- 47:00Speaker 3: you to do. I want you to get something. Write
- 47:02Speaker 3: this down. Tell Congress that AM radio still matters. You
- 47:07Speaker 3: can do that by texting the letters AM to three
- 47:11Speaker 3: nine one seven nine Again text AM to three nine
- 47:15Speaker 3: one seven nine and be sure to send Congress a
- 47:18Speaker 3: message that you want them to save AM radio. All right,
- 47:22Speaker 3: we're going to take a quick break here, folks. Nine
- 47:24Speaker 3: oh one two six zero five nine two six is
- 47:27Speaker 3: our telephone number. That's nine oh one two six zero
- 47:31Speaker 3: five nine two six. You know a lot of people
- 47:34Speaker 3: say that reverse mortgages did not fail retirees, and that's true,
- 47:40Speaker 3: bad information did years ago. These loans are in a
- 47:45Speaker 3: really bad reputation, but fortunately regulations have changed, protections have improved,
- 47:50Speaker 3: and today many Americans are now using reverse mortgages responsibly
- 47:54Speaker 3: as part of a smart retirement strategy. And that's why
- 47:58Speaker 3: I'm excited to tell you about move Mortgage. They are
- 48:01Speaker 3: offering all of our listers a free customized retirement mortgage
- 48:05Speaker 3: options plan, so you can actually see the facts and
- 48:08Speaker 3: the numbers and your real options in black and white.
- 48:11Speaker 3: It's completely personalized, and it shows how your home, often
- 48:15Speaker 3: your largest asset, may be used to support retirement income,
- 48:19Speaker 3: reduce financial pressure, and maybe even eliminate monthly mortgage payments.
- 48:25Speaker 3: Very simple. All you have to do is call five
- 48:27Speaker 3: eight zero reverse. That's five eight zero reverse, or go
- 48:30Speaker 3: to movement dot com slash starns. Here's what's going to happen.

- 49:13Speaker 3: j Georgia. I'm Joe. What's going on?
- 49:16Speaker 2: God?
- 49:17Speaker 14: I just wanted to call you and tell you America
- 49:20Speaker 14: is lucky to have you. You're a great talk show host.
- 49:23Speaker 14: You're a great taxpayer champion, and America is glass to
- 49:28Speaker 14: have a great man like you as a taxpayer champion,
- 49:32Speaker 14: and this calling advocate for the American taxpayers. And I
- 49:35Speaker 14: just want to say thank you so much.
- 49:38Speaker 3: Well, Joe, you're kind to say that. You know, I
- 49:41Speaker 3: grew up as a kid in the seventies and eighties
- 49:43Speaker 3: listening to AM radio. My grandfather when I was a kid,
- 49:47Speaker 3: gave me a transistor radio and fell in love with
- 49:50Speaker 3: that thing. And I remember staying up late at night
- 49:53Speaker 3: under the covers, you know, as a kid, and trying
- 49:56Speaker 3: to dial in and see what stations, you know, you
- 49:58Speaker 3: could get, you know, at night time when those signals
- 50:01Speaker 3: just exploded all over the country and it was fun
- 50:05Speaker 3: listening to like, you know, wl W and Cincinnati and
- 50:08Speaker 3: WWL in New Orleans. That was a lot of fun
- 50:11Speaker 3: for me as a kid.
- 50:13Speaker 11: Well, they trained you well, because you're great.
- 50:16Speaker 14: You're a great advocate for the tax player and on
- 50:19Speaker 14: top of that, you're a very fine man. I've never
- 50:22Speaker 14: heard anything but good things about you, and I've met
- 50:25Speaker 14: a lot of people that have known you, and he
- 50:27Speaker 14: called into you. So thank God for Todd Starns. And
- 50:31Speaker 14: I just want to say thank.
- 50:32Speaker 3: You, Joe. I appreciate that and those kind words as always,
- 50:37Speaker 3: and thank you. Stay cool up there in the North
- 50:39Speaker 3: Georgia Mountains. Good folks there in North Georgia. No, it
- 50:44Speaker 3: was one time, Dylan, we had, you know, our AM
- 50:47Speaker 3: radio station here is ten thousand watts, so in the
- 50:49Speaker 3: daytime you can hear about eighty miles eighty ninety miles
- 50:54Speaker 3: in any given direction. But one day we had an issue,
- 50:57Speaker 3: you know, and then we're just to lower the power
- 51:00Speaker 3: night because it interferes with a clear channel station in Canada,
- 51:05Speaker 3: which I still can't figure out why we care about that,
- 51:07Speaker 3: but apparently the FCC does. So anyway, we had an
- 51:11Speaker 3: issue at the tower site where it locked up, the
- 51:14Speaker 3: daytime signal locked up. I'll never forget it happened because
- 51:17Speaker 3: I was traveling to Atlanta and I could hear the
- 51:21Speaker 3: station clear as a bell outside of Birmingham. I thought, oh,
- 51:26Speaker 3: something happened.
- 51:28Speaker 5: You know, that's a problem if you can hear it
- 51:29Speaker 5: in Birmingham.
- 51:30Speaker 3: Indeed, speaking of problems, this headline from the New York
- 51:34Speaker 3: Post Taco Bell locations pull ingredients off menu as explosive
- 51:39Speaker 3: diarrhea parasite cases.
- 51:41Speaker 5: Serge, Is that not the entire menu?
- 51:45Speaker 3: Pretty much? That's what I thought. Isn't that what they
- 51:48Speaker 3: call a taco?
- 51:50Speaker 5: I thought, that's why you don't schedule anything after you
- 51:52Speaker 5: eat Taco Bell.
- 51:53Speaker 3: It's the chiloupa. So according to the New York Post,
- 51:57Speaker 3: this story out yesterday, Taco Bell restaurants are now pulling
- 52:00Speaker 3: fresh ingredients from their menu. All right, can we stop here?
- 52:03Speaker 3: I didn't realize they had fresh ingredients.
- 52:06Speaker 5: I didn't realize that's the reason. Wow, wait, the fresh
- 52:08Speaker 5: ingredients are the problem.
- 52:10Speaker 3: That's according to the New York Post. Yeah, Taco Bell
- 52:14Speaker 3: restaurants pulling the pulling the fresh ingredients, including lettuce, cilantro, onion,
- 52:21Speaker 3: pico digayo, and wacamole.
- 52:24Speaker 5: Oh so all the stuff that I take off anyway,
- 52:27Speaker 5: it's a nationwide recall. This is good news.
- 52:30Speaker 3: Actually, this is apparently happening predominantly in the metro Detroit area.
- 52:34Speaker 3: So if you're down with thoughts, and prayers to you.
- 52:38Speaker 5: Especially in those skyscrapers. It really doesn't get right.
- 52:40Speaker 3: Oh my god, oh gosh. Well, and then they have
- 52:44Speaker 3: the I mean usually those those are closed, cloistered environments,
- 52:49Speaker 3: so god forbid you get a full floor that you know,
- 52:52Speaker 3: that's that's not good at all. The missing ingredients are
- 52:56Speaker 3: staples and several Taco bell favorites, including Tacos, the Crunch,
- 53:00Speaker 3: rap Supreme, and Cantina Chicken menu items. I really don't
- 53:06Speaker 3: venture far from the beef on a Taco Bells menu.
- 53:10Speaker 5: I'll get the Cantina Chicken because that is pretty good,
- 53:12Speaker 5: but I really don't get the let I don't get
- 53:14Speaker 5: the healthy stuff, if I'm being perfectly honest.
- 53:17Speaker 3: The menu shakeup comes as health officials investigate a surge
- 53:22Speaker 3: into something called cyclos sparasius. That's an intestinal evis Okay,
- 53:29Speaker 3: basically it's explosive diarrhea. So far, nearly two thousand people
- 53:34Speaker 3: across the country have been sickened. You know who, I'd
- 53:38Speaker 3: you know who I would blame for this. I'd blame
- 53:41Speaker 3: the Sherman people.
- 53:42Speaker 5: Yeah, seriously, what have they been up to? Yeah?
- 53:46Speaker 3: They need more toilet paper sales.
- 53:48Speaker 5: They do. They're the they planted that lettuce.
- 53:56Speaker 3: Michigan has reported nine hundred and ninety two cases of
- 53:59Speaker 3: the outbreak. Wow. That's, according to the Michigan Department of
- 54:03Speaker 3: Health and Human Services, a dramatic jump from the roughly
- 54:07Speaker 3: fifty cases the state typically records each year. As I'm
- 54:12Speaker 3: turning the page here, why oh, why do we have
- 54:15Speaker 3: stock photo of a woman sitting on a toilet.
- 54:17Speaker 5: I'm glad you noticed, just in case you weren't, you know,
- 54:23Speaker 5: aware of what's actually happened.
- 54:24Speaker 3: And she's got her hands in her her faces in
- 54:26Speaker 3: her hands.
- 54:27Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 54:27Speaker 3: It seems to me, if you're dealing with I don't know,
- 54:30Speaker 3: explosive diarrhea, you're there should be a horrified look.
- 54:35Speaker 5: Oh yeah, that's no descriptive enough at all.
- 54:37Speaker 3: Now this is like having a bad day, may have
- 54:40Speaker 3: a migraine.
- 54:41Speaker 5: Yeah, explosive diarrhea is like you're taking the shoes off,
- 54:45Speaker 5: the socks too. If you have to.
- 54:48Speaker 3: Snortina, make it stop, Make it stop. Lord, I promised
- 54:56Speaker 3: never to eat another jalopah.
- 54:58Speaker 2: Make it stop.
- 55:00Speaker 5: I'm just saying, yeah, No, you're right though, right, that's
- 55:03Speaker 5: how it is.
- 55:06Speaker 3: The Sinners for Disease Control. Wow, this is get this
- 55:09Speaker 3: the CDC involved. I mean, this is like the China virust,
- 55:13Speaker 3: Lord knuco Bell, what did you do? They say the
- 55:16Speaker 3: illness can cause watery diarrheam and sometimes quote frequent explosive
- 55:22Speaker 3: bowel movements that may last for a month or longer.
- 55:27Speaker 5: Is this a continuous or is this like a when
- 55:30Speaker 5: you have to go, you have to go?
- 55:31Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know, because.
- 55:33Speaker 5: One is way worse.
- 55:34Speaker 3: You know, here's what it gets me to. I mean,
- 55:36Speaker 3: if it's that long, at some point people are gonna say,
- 55:39Speaker 3: just put me, put me out of my misery.
- 55:41Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 55:44Speaker 3: Other symptoms include stomach cramps, nausea, bloating, fatigue, loss of appetite,
- 55:49Speaker 3: and weight loss. Well yeah, I guess so. Lord, it's
- 55:55Speaker 3: kind of like, I don't know, having some sort of
- 55:57Speaker 3: like orca all that water coming off the blow hole.
- 56:01Speaker 3: She's a lou No wonder you're losing weight. Forget about it, zimpek.

- 56:52Speaker 8: weeks that's gonna require me to take medication. It's not
- 56:56Speaker 8: gonna be much fun, if you know what I mean.
- 57:00Speaker 3: Well, I think I I think I do. Would it
- 57:03Speaker 3: be easier for you just to maybe and maybe cheaper
- 57:06Speaker 3: just to go get a chilopah?

- 58:56Speaker 3: McConnell over the past forty eight hours?
- 59:00Speaker 16: The answer to that would be negative, I have not.
- 59:03Speaker 3: And Steve gil what about your what about yourself?
- 59:06Speaker 4: I was actually going to use one of those generators
- 59:09Speaker 4: and posts. I'm marked safe from having a twenty minute
- 59:13Speaker 4: conversation with Mitch McConnell.
- 59:15Speaker 3: I just guys, it is. It's the craziest thing, and
- 59:19Speaker 3: it's just you know, I've known Scott Jennings, We've been
- 59:21Speaker 3: on the same platform together. I have no reason to
- 59:23Speaker 3: doubt the guy at all. But it's just all very strange. Harry,
- 59:28Speaker 3: what say you?
- 59:28Speaker 16: Yeah?
- 59:30Speaker 17: Oh well, it reminds me what we would hear about
- 59:32Speaker 17: Joe Biden, just to be fair. Oh my gosh, you
- 59:36Speaker 17: don't get to see it like we do. We can't
- 59:38Speaker 17: keep up with him. His energy is unbelievable. I don't
- 59:42Speaker 17: believe there's twenty minute conversations that are going on. I
- 59:46Speaker 17: think it's sadly, very very bad, and I think he
- 59:50Speaker 17: was just doing him solid to make things look better
- 59:53Speaker 17: than they are.
- 59:54Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a tough situation there. I want to move
- 59:57Speaker 3: on to what's happening in Maine. Grand Platin finally pulling
- 1:00:01Speaker 3: out of the race, Steve, what does it say to
- 1:00:04Speaker 3: you though that there were still a very large number
- 1:00:07Speaker 3: of Democrats in Maine that were supporting this guy, even
- 1:00:10Speaker 3: though they knew all these scandalous details of his life.
- 1:00:15Speaker 4: Well, and his exit literally being on the side of
- 1:00:18Speaker 4: the roadway, it's like, you know, again, the whole thing
- 1:00:20Speaker 4: has been bizarre from the beginning. But the most bizarre
- 1:00:23Speaker 4: aspect is the embrace of this bizarre nutcase, you know,
- 1:00:28Speaker 4: perverts by the Democratic Party who are still, you know,
- 1:00:31Speaker 4: refusing to.
- 1:00:32Speaker 5: Let him go in many cases, and you know they
- 1:00:35Speaker 5: deserve it.
- 1:00:35Speaker 4: We should stick them to him, not just in Maine,
- 1:00:39Speaker 4: but in the entire country, because this is reflective and
- 1:00:42Speaker 4: representative of who Democrats are today. They are so willing
- 1:00:47Speaker 4: to embrace the crazy because they hate Trump. I mean,
- 1:00:50Speaker 4: this is this is just another example of Trump derangement
- 1:00:53Speaker 4: syndrome at work. And again, hopefully they will pay a
- 1:00:55Speaker 4: price as voters start to pay attention.
- 1:00:58Speaker 16: Harry.
- 1:00:58Speaker 3: The New York Times did a deep into all of this,
- 1:01:01Speaker 3: and they interviewed two of the progressive recruiters, the individuals
- 1:01:07Speaker 3: responsible for bringing this guy on to the national stage.
- 1:01:09Speaker 3: And they knew all about this guy. They knew every
- 1:01:11Speaker 3: single sordid detail about this guy, and yet they said,
- 1:01:15Speaker 3: at the end of the day, none of it really mattered.
- 1:01:17Speaker 3: They felt like he was still electable. What does that tell.
- 1:01:20Speaker 17: You, He tells you they want to win at all costs.
- 1:01:24Speaker 17: Nothing changed. The last allegation was terrible, but so were
- 1:01:28Speaker 17: the earlier allegations. Remember, The New York Times did a story.
- 1:01:33Speaker 17: They only called the first two of five sources that
- 1:01:36Speaker 17: were given to them, and the person said, the first
- 1:01:39Speaker 17: two will help you deep background, but they won't know
- 1:01:41Speaker 17: about the heavy handed stuff. Here's the three that will.
- 1:01:45Speaker 17: They didn't call them. They were sticking with this guy
- 1:01:48Speaker 17: until he couldn't win.
- 1:01:50Speaker 3: Steve, You've been in politics of a very long time here,
- 1:01:54Speaker 3: and I know they're trying to figure out. I think
- 1:01:56Speaker 3: they have three possibilities as far as replacements. I mean,
- 1:01:59Speaker 3: what is that? What does that questionnaire look like? Now?
- 1:02:02Speaker 3: Have you ever raped anybody? Are you being forced to
- 1:02:06Speaker 3: stay five hundred feet away from a grade school? I mean,
- 1:02:09Speaker 3: this is insanity.
- 1:02:11Speaker 4: Well, and the media coverage has been as bad as Platner.
- 1:02:14Speaker 4: I mean there was one of the reporters, I say
- 1:02:17Speaker 4: reporters in quotes, who was interviewing one of these women
- 1:02:20Speaker 4: who was they can't say sexually assaulted. If you listen
- 1:02:23Speaker 4: to what she said, she was raped. And the reporter
- 1:02:26Speaker 4: was trying to in the worst distinction we've seen since
- 1:02:29Speaker 4: Bill Clinton defining what is is was trying to define, well,
- 1:02:33Speaker 4: you were compliant.
- 1:02:34Speaker 5: And she said that's not consensual.
- 1:02:36Speaker 4: It's like, well, what's the difference in compliance and consent?
- 1:02:40Speaker 4: And if he doesn't know the difference in that when
- 1:02:42Speaker 4: you're being bullied, threatened, you know, at risk of your life,
- 1:02:46Speaker 4: and succumb to rape, that's different than a consensual sexual involvement.
- 1:02:51Speaker 16: Yeah, it's true.
- 1:02:52Speaker 17: And Todd and Steve can we also just call out
- 1:02:56Speaker 17: the fact that there's a disturbing pattern here. When they
- 1:03:00Speaker 17: yet a nominee that they know is going to lose,
- 1:03:03Speaker 17: they dump them and then they get to hand pick
- 1:03:06Speaker 17: who they want to begin with. They didn't want the
- 1:03:08Speaker 17: governor of Maine to be the Democratic nominee, so they
- 1:03:12Speaker 17: settled for this guy. As soon as the polls came out.
- 1:03:15Speaker 17: They didn't even come out, but they were leaked that
- 1:03:17Speaker 17: he couldn't win over the weekend.
- 1:03:20Speaker 16: They dropped him immediately.
- 1:03:22Speaker 17: And now they get their six hundred insider people to
- 1:03:25Speaker 17: pick exactly who they want. And I think this was
- 1:03:28Speaker 17: a fallback strategy. If Platner could win, we'll take them,
- 1:03:31Speaker 17: because all we care about is winning. If he can't,
- 1:03:34Speaker 17: we'll dump them and we'll pick who we want.
- 1:03:36Speaker 16: They're terrible well.
- 1:03:38Speaker 4: And the worst thing is that they constantly shout at
- 1:03:40Speaker 4: the top of their lungs tipmocracy, toutmocracy, and we've seen
- 1:03:44Speaker 4: it with Kamala Harris, We've seen it with this guy again.
- 1:03:48Speaker 4: This is who we are, who they are, and when
- 1:03:50Speaker 4: they show you who they are, we should believe.
- 1:03:52Speaker 3: That absolutely absolutely. Steve Gill joining us on our Patriot
- 1:03:56Speaker 3: Mobile neues Maker line today. Harry Hurley joining us on
- 1:03:59Speaker 3: our Patrie creat Mobile Newsmaker line. Guys, before we get
- 1:04:03Speaker 3: to Iran, of course, there's the rise of communism disguised
- 1:04:08Speaker 3: as democratic socialism across the country. Harry. I know you
- 1:04:11Speaker 3: guys up in the Northeast, you guys are kind of
- 1:04:13Speaker 3: used to these folks, but here in the South we're not.
- 1:04:17Speaker 3: And I know in Memphis next week AOC is coming
- 1:04:21Speaker 3: to town. Iona Pressley from the Squad coming to town
- 1:04:24Speaker 3: to campaign for this little radical communist with the power
- 1:04:28Speaker 3: Frow by the name of Justin Pearson. Harry, how concerned
- 1:04:33Speaker 3: are you that that that we could be watching a
- 1:04:37Speaker 3: groundswell of support for communism in this country, Steve, I
- 1:04:41Speaker 3: want you to jump in after Harry.
- 1:04:43Speaker 16: I'm concerned, Todd and Steve.
- 1:04:46Speaker 17: But if the Democrats want to pick the most radical people,
- 1:04:50Speaker 17: then they're a part of the Democrat Party, even they
- 1:04:52Speaker 17: are in fact communists, which they don't admit, but they are.
- 1:04:56Speaker 17: They at least admit their socialists now, so we see progress.
- 1:04:59Speaker 17: My feeling is if they were to win, like say
- 1:05:02Speaker 17: Tallafreco were to win in Texas, then I'm worried. If
- 1:05:06Speaker 17: he loses like Bette O'Rourke did, and if that candidate
- 1:05:09Speaker 17: becomes a Democrat nominee Todd in your neck of the
- 1:05:12Speaker 17: woods and they get smoked in the general election, I'm
- 1:05:15Speaker 17: not worried. If they expand the map and start winning
- 1:05:18Speaker 17: where you wouldn't believe that they could win, then get ready,
- 1:05:22Speaker 17: we're in trouble.
- 1:05:25Speaker 3: Steve, What say you?
- 1:05:27Speaker 4: Unfortunately, the promise of free stuff has been where socialism
- 1:05:30Speaker 4: has run and won all over the world until people
- 1:05:35Speaker 4: realize that there is no free lunch. And at that
- 1:05:37Speaker 4: point it's too late to change the system. They've voted
- 1:05:41Speaker 4: in place for seeing that. A little bit in New
- 1:05:42Speaker 4: York where Mondanni Pio promised free buses and free grocery stores,
- 1:05:46Speaker 4: and then the reality kicks in of okay, we can't
- 1:05:49Speaker 4: do the buses, we can't do the grocery stores. And
- 1:05:51Speaker 4: by the way, all the billionaires we were going to
- 1:05:53Speaker 4: tax to oblivion. Have now left the state and are
- 1:05:55Speaker 4: moving to Tennessee and Tech, Texas and Florida.
- 1:05:58Speaker 16: It doesn't work.
- 1:06:00Speaker 5: It's never worked anywhere.
- 1:06:02Speaker 4: And yet you've got all these young voters who got
- 1:06:05Speaker 4: you know, who grew up in the everybody gets a
- 1:06:07Speaker 4: trophy generation, who are buying into free stuff because that's
- 1:06:10Speaker 4: how they've.
- 1:06:10Speaker 5: Lived their lives.
- 1:06:11Speaker 3: Meanwhile, Fellas, we've got the war in Iran, which is
- 1:06:15Speaker 3: kicked back up again, US launching another series of strikes.
- 1:06:20Speaker 3: President Trump says, the Ceasmeiers is pretty much over. Harry,
- 1:06:24Speaker 3: How does this end? And do you see this impacting
- 1:06:28Speaker 3: the midterm elections at all?
- 1:06:31Speaker 17: Second questions easy to answer. Yes, it's going to affect
- 1:06:35Speaker 17: the midterms. How it ends determines who will benefit from it.
- 1:06:40Speaker 17: There is still time and still room for republic Pipkins
- 1:06:45Speaker 17: to do very well in the midterm election, which would
- 1:06:48Speaker 17: be against all of history except for the right after
- 1:06:51Speaker 17: September eleventh, two thousand and one. Regarding my former boss,
- 1:06:55Speaker 17: the forty fifth and forty seventh President of the United States,
- 1:06:58Speaker 17: Todd Steve, he told us yesterday what he's going to do.
- 1:07:02Speaker 17: He said, and I quote, I'm ready to finish the job.
- 1:07:05Speaker 17: That doesn't mean some kind of treaty, that doesn't mean
- 1:07:09Speaker 17: some kind of agreement. That means he's going to take
- 1:07:13Speaker 17: them down. He's prepared to do that, and he'll be
- 1:07:16Speaker 17: the first in almost a half a century to be
- 1:07:18Speaker 17: willing what it takes to finish the job. Because you
- 1:07:21Speaker 17: cannot sign a piece of paper. Their word is no good.
- 1:07:25Speaker 17: They lie about everything. This second generation two point zero
- 1:07:30Speaker 17: of the religious nuts and the IRG they got to go.
- 1:07:34Speaker 17: And when they go, Iran has a shot, maybe becomes
- 1:07:39Speaker 17: Persia again.
- 1:07:41Speaker 3: Steve, what are you hearing boots on the ground.
- 1:07:45Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think we end up with boots on
- 1:07:46Speaker 4: the ground, although there's some talk of taking carg Island,
- 1:07:49Speaker 4: which is kind of their main repository of oil, their
- 1:07:52Speaker 4: distribution center. That would require some degree of boots on
- 1:07:55Speaker 4: the ground. But do we bring in the Kataris, the UAE,
- 1:07:59Speaker 4: the Kuwaitis, we bring in others to kind of do
- 1:08:02Speaker 4: that on the ground piece rather than American troops. But
- 1:08:05Speaker 4: I think, you know, we can still bomb the snot
- 1:08:07Speaker 4: out of them. I don't know why there's still sixty
- 1:08:09Speaker 4: of their speedboats that were left to bomb yesterday. Yeah,
- 1:08:12Speaker 4: let's take out the rest. You know, we've got the
- 1:08:15Speaker 4: satellites to know where the IRGC is, where the besieged
- 1:08:18Speaker 4: police forces are. Kill them all so that the people
- 1:08:22Speaker 4: of Iran will be freed up. And I have to
- 1:08:24Speaker 4: worry about the guys with guns. And I think, like
- 1:08:26Speaker 4: Harry said, you know, they've pushed Trump to do more
- 1:08:30Speaker 4: than he wanted to do, and if they keep pushing,
- 1:08:34Speaker 4: Iran will soon be I was.
- 1:08:36Speaker 3: Oh, there you go, there you go, all right, guys.
- 1:08:38Speaker 3: One final topic, and we have the story up at
- 1:08:41Speaker 3: Todd Stearns dot com generating a lot of conversation. It
- 1:08:45Speaker 3: involves something called black English. You've got a group of
- 1:08:48Speaker 3: activists in California that want the state to now teach
- 1:08:52Speaker 3: preschoolers how to talk with a black dialect, and that
- 1:08:58Speaker 3: would involve base legitimizing phrases like I'd be happy, or
- 1:09:03Speaker 3: what you be up to? Or for example, I'm gonna
- 1:09:08Speaker 3: ask you a question. For example, Harry Hurley, what do
- 1:09:11Speaker 3: you make of all of this.
- 1:09:13Speaker 17: I'm not in favor of anything that takes young people
- 1:09:18Speaker 17: away from learning proper English.
- 1:09:20Speaker 16: To have the best shot to.
- 1:09:22Speaker 17: Overachieve in America, because we all have equal opportunity we're
- 1:09:26Speaker 17: just not guaranteed equal results. So if you're going to
- 1:09:29Speaker 17: be teaching a language that's in violation of proper English,
- 1:09:35Speaker 17: I have to be against that. It's called Black English,
- 1:09:38Speaker 17: it's been called African American English. It should not be taught.
- 1:09:42Speaker 17: We're all Americans. We should all speak with proper diction.
- 1:09:46Speaker 17: I think it would put people behind. If you go
- 1:09:48Speaker 17: an interview for an appointment a position and one person
- 1:09:52Speaker 17: comes in prim and proper and they're speaking beautiful English,
- 1:09:55Speaker 17: and somebody comes in and they're doing something different, guess
- 1:09:58Speaker 17: who's going to win.
- 1:10:00Speaker 16: I don't like it. It's not necessary.
- 1:10:02Speaker 3: And Steve Any and Steve and I will take this
- 1:10:05Speaker 3: part of it. As Southerners, there are some Southern dialects
- 1:10:09Speaker 3: that we can't even understand, so.
- 1:10:13Speaker 5: We shouldn't be teaching them. We should just be passing them.
- 1:10:16Speaker 16: Belong a family dinners.
- 1:10:18Speaker 4: Yeah, we've had this ebonics push or you've had in
- 1:10:21Speaker 4: the black community where there's been pushback about well you're
- 1:10:24Speaker 4: talking white.
- 1:10:25Speaker 5: Well, that's how they're succeeding.
- 1:10:26Speaker 4: That's how they're getting into the best schools and succeeding
- 1:10:29Speaker 4: in the business environment. The only thing I'll say about
- 1:10:31Speaker 4: this teaching black in California. I'm not really concerned at all.
- 1:10:35Speaker 4: They can't teach reading, writing, and arithmetic. They've got schools
- 1:10:38Speaker 4: where they've got fifteen percent literacy rates. If they don't
- 1:10:41Speaker 4: teach black English any better than they've taught everything else,
- 1:10:45Speaker 4: we shouldn't be worried at.
- 1:10:46Speaker 3: All, all right, Steve Gill try starday dot com. Great website.

- 1:11:50Speaker 12: God love listening to you. Hey, just real quick, I'm
- 1:11:53Speaker 12: sixty three years old. I grew up pretty much eating taco.
- 1:11:57Speaker 12: Phill's been married thirty eight years and my wife it
- 1:12:00Speaker 12: taco smell.
- 1:12:02Speaker 3: I got a smell. Ken, you're sixty three, you might
- 1:12:05Speaker 3: be you might need to add some ruffige to your diet.
- 1:12:08Speaker 3: My friend.
- 1:12:10Speaker 12: One last thing I've done thousands is a pre employed
- 1:12:13Speaker 12: law enforcement backgrounds Platner wouldn't have made the first cut.
- 1:12:17Speaker 3: Is that right?
- 1:12:18Speaker 11: That's correct.
- 1:12:19Speaker 12: We hold ourselves to the lost standards here in Texas.
- 1:12:22Speaker 11: Well.
- 1:12:23Speaker 3: God blessed Texas. I'll say that much. Ken, Thank you
- 1:12:26Speaker 3: for listening to us today, And to tell your wife
- 1:12:29Speaker 3: we said hello, Taco's smell. I love that. Let's go
- 1:12:32Speaker 3: to Todd in Houston, Texas, listening to us on Patriot
- 1:12:35Speaker 3: Talk nine twenty. Hi, Todd, what's on your mind?
- 1:12:39Speaker 12: Well, the plenty on the money, but what I want
- 1:12:41Speaker 12: to talk about the call and the rest of the
- 1:12:45Speaker 12: country for just getting initial ast to this ice here
- 1:12:52Speaker 12: in Houston Tuesday morning. And I saw that time and
- 1:12:57Speaker 12: I immediately knew what was gonna happen and took to
- 1:13:00Speaker 12: the problem. The race Pempston Horse about thirty seven hours
- 1:13:06Speaker 12: to show up here in Houston and start their protest
- 1:13:09Speaker 12: with all their signs that they were freshly printed. And Uh,
- 1:13:16Speaker 12: we've got a situation with a man fifty two years
- 1:13:20Speaker 12: I don't I believe he is, who has been in
- 1:13:22Speaker 12: the country thirty five years, and of course all the
- 1:13:26Speaker 12: local stations conferences almost how good of the worker he was,
- 1:13:31Speaker 12: the taxpayer and.
- 1:13:32Speaker 3: That the hen Let me let me jump in here, Todd.
- 1:13:36Speaker 3: We have a super bad phone connection, and I'm wondering, guys,
- 1:13:39Speaker 3: can we try to maybe get him to call back
- 1:13:41Speaker 3: on another line and we'll try to pick up that
- 1:13:44Speaker 3: conversation on the other side of the the break here
- 1:13:47Speaker 3: because we are coming up on a on a hard
- 1:13:49Speaker 3: break we've got to take. But Todd, I want you
- 1:13:51Speaker 3: to give us a holler back and we'll try to
- 1:13:53Speaker 3: work that out.
- 1:13:54Speaker 4: Uh.
- 1:13:54Speaker 3: It's it's our understanding as well. And I know we
- 1:13:57Speaker 3: have a lot of listeners in Houston and maybe you
- 1:13:58Speaker 3: guys can help us work through this. But our understanding
- 1:14:02Speaker 3: the reports we're getting is that this guy used his
- 1:14:05Speaker 3: vehicle as a weapon and tried to run over an
- 1:14:08Speaker 3: ICE agent, and the agent actually fired back in self
- 1:14:12Speaker 3: defense and struck the you know, struck the bad guy.
- 1:14:17Speaker 3: So it just seems to me, don't aim a gun
- 1:14:20Speaker 3: at an ICE agent, don't aim your car at an
- 1:14:22Speaker 3: ICE agent, and you'll you'll be just fine. We've got
- 1:14:26Speaker 3: that situation in Memphis where federal agents shot and killed
- 1:14:31Speaker 3: somebody that did the exact same thing. All right, we'll
- 1:14:33Speaker 3: pick up this conversation on the other side of the break.

- 1:16:21Speaker 3: the Second Amendment, you need to pay very close attention
- 1:16:24Speaker 3: to the next few moments here on the radio. Very
- 1:16:27Speaker 3: disturbing situation in the Commonwealth of Virginia where the far
- 1:16:32Speaker 3: left Democrats are wanting to take away your guns. But
- 1:16:36Speaker 3: what's fascinating about the story is that the Democrats in there,
- 1:16:40Speaker 3: in the legislation they are trying to advance, they get
- 1:16:44Speaker 3: to keep their guns at the state level. So if
- 1:16:47Speaker 3: you're a member of the state House, if you're a
- 1:16:49Speaker 3: member of the Assembly or the state Senate, you get
- 1:16:51Speaker 3: to keep your weapons. But they're coming after the law
- 1:16:54Speaker 3: abiding citizens of the Commonwealth of Virginia. Fortunately, our good
- 1:16:58Speaker 3: friends at the National Rifle Associate are doing something about that.
- 1:17:01Speaker 3: Justin Davis, the director of public Affairs at NRA, joins
- 1:17:05Speaker 3: us on our Patriot Mobile newsmaker line today. Justin, good
- 1:17:09Speaker 3: to have you with us.
- 1:17:10Speaker 5: Thanks for having me.
- 1:17:12Speaker 2: So.
- 1:17:12Speaker 3: I know you guys have been all over this story
- 1:17:14Speaker 3: filing a lawsuit against the governor. If you could just
- 1:17:18Speaker 3: set the stage for us, tell us what happened and
- 1:17:20Speaker 3: why you guys decided to get involved.
- 1:17:23Speaker 18: Yeah, from the second Governor Spinberger took office, we knew
- 1:17:26Speaker 18: this was coming down the line. She was an adamant
- 1:17:28Speaker 18: supporter of Bloomberg groups, so she'd be passing the saw
- 1:17:31Speaker 18: weapons ban, and we told her she did that, we'd
- 1:17:33Speaker 18: take her to court. And when she did that, well,
- 1:17:35Speaker 18: we took her to court, and we wanted the first step.
- 1:17:37Speaker 18: We secured a statewide comprehensive preliminary junction stopping this bill
- 1:17:41Speaker 18: or this law from going into effect to make sure
- 1:17:44Speaker 18: that while this court case plays out.
- 1:17:45Speaker 5: For juniors have access to their second movement rights.
- 1:17:48Speaker 3: You know, I think a lot of people are struggling
- 1:17:50Speaker 3: to understand why this is happening in of all places, Virginia.
- 1:17:53Speaker 3: But the fact of the matter is justin elections simply
- 1:17:56Speaker 3: have consequences, don't they.
- 1:17:58Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 1:17:58Speaker 18: Absolutely, I mean this is just a petri dish for
- 1:18:00Speaker 18: what's going to happen in Washington, d C. If progresses
- 1:18:03Speaker 18: take over take over Congress, and so this is all
- 1:18:07Speaker 18: a trial balloon. Is This should never happen in Virginia.
- 1:18:10Speaker 18: It shouldn't happen anywhere. But a gun owning, proud purple
- 1:18:13Speaker 18: state like Virginia to have this kind of swing so
- 1:18:15Speaker 18: quickly is really horrific and should wake up everybody across
- 1:18:19Speaker 18: the country, whether you live in Wyoming or California or Virginia,
- 1:18:23Speaker 18: all your rights are just one election away. So you
- 1:18:25Speaker 18: have to stay vigilant, you have to get involved.
- 1:18:27Speaker 3: I want to go back to the actual law that
- 1:18:30Speaker 3: they were advancing, and I just cringe every time a
- 1:18:34Speaker 3: Democrat uses the phrase assault weapon. But that's what this was,
- 1:18:38Speaker 3: and a ban on what assault weapons and a magazine
- 1:18:41Speaker 3: ban that was enacted by the Democrats.
- 1:18:46Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:18:46Speaker 18: So, I mean, there's a lot of consultants that Michael
- 1:18:48Speaker 18: Bloomberg pays to come up with a whole lot of
- 1:18:50Speaker 18: scary terms to scare people out their second Amendment rights.
- 1:18:52Speaker 18: So called assault weapons bands are just bands on commonly
- 1:18:55Speaker 18: owned firearms, semi automatic firearms that are just as common
- 1:18:58Speaker 18: as fort f one fifties and this country. And that's
- 1:19:01Speaker 18: the AAR fifteen, not even taking account the other swaths
- 1:19:03Speaker 18: of style of farms they've banned. I mean, they've banned
- 1:19:05Speaker 18: turkey hunting shotguns because they have pistol grips. I mean,
- 1:19:08Speaker 18: this is so beyond the pale of what it's good policy.
- 1:19:11Speaker 18: It's just purely what's good politics for Democrats in Virginia.
- 1:19:15Speaker 18: And so we're not going to stay outli by while
- 1:19:17Speaker 18: any infringement of your rights happen. And of course something
- 1:19:19Speaker 18: that's so extreme like this, we need to hold them accountable.
- 1:19:22Speaker 18: We need to make sure they're taking them to court,
- 1:19:24Speaker 18: and that's exactly what we'll do every single time they
- 1:19:26Speaker 18: try this.
- 1:19:27Speaker 3: Are are there any other hot spots around the nation
- 1:19:30Speaker 3: that you guys are concerned about where Second Amendment rights
- 1:19:32Speaker 3: are coming under attack?
- 1:19:34Speaker 18: I mean, I think it's all fifty states. I mean
- 1:19:36Speaker 18: I look at Virginia. I mean every single state is
- 1:19:39Speaker 18: one election away from losing their rights. I mean, you
- 1:19:42Speaker 18: maybe get to live in a state like Alabama or
- 1:19:45Speaker 18: Wyoming and you think that doesn't affect you. But on
- 1:19:47Speaker 18: the national level, if progressive take over Washington, DC and
- 1:19:50Speaker 18: pass a national quote unquote assault weapons ban, that comes
- 1:19:54Speaker 18: for you too, regardless of your state. So I mean
- 1:19:56Speaker 18: I come from Maine. That happened quickly as well, Progressive
- 1:20:00Speaker 18: took over that state. Look what's going on. I mean,
- 1:20:01Speaker 18: there's a lot of news cycle about what's happening in Maine.
- 1:20:04Speaker 18: It can happen quickly. And if you don't get involved
- 1:20:07Speaker 18: and you don't make a difference, these people will take
- 1:20:10Speaker 18: your political world and they'll turn.
- 1:20:11Speaker 5: It upside down.
- 1:20:12Speaker 3: And just to give you an example of that, a
- 1:20:14Speaker 3: few days ago, big story nationwide about what's happening in
- 1:20:17Speaker 3: Oregon where they're actually proposing a ban on hunting and fishing,
- 1:20:22Speaker 3: and that actually is making it to the November ballot
- 1:20:25Speaker 3: in the state of Oregon, which is a big outdoor state,
- 1:20:28Speaker 3: but the Democrats there want to ban hunting and fishing.
- 1:20:33Speaker 18: It's I mean, it really is incredibly ridiculous, right. I mean,
- 1:20:36Speaker 18: that's not even taken in effect the ecological impacts that
- 1:20:38Speaker 18: that will have. I mean, if you look at studies
- 1:20:40Speaker 18: across this country in places that have restricted hunting and
- 1:20:43Speaker 18: restricted gun ownership. Like Massachusetts, they're having massive public health
- 1:20:47Speaker 18: issues where there's lime disease, car crashes, animals getting sick.
- 1:20:50Speaker 18: I mean, hunters are the best conservations in this country.
- 1:20:53Speaker 18: And to take away that ability for them to one
- 1:20:55Speaker 18: exercise their rights, feed their families, and help keep the
- 1:20:59Speaker 18: outdoors back bal I mean, it's really a terrible, terrible,
- 1:21:02Speaker 18: terrible idea.
- 1:21:03Speaker 3: So back to Virginia for just a moment here. So
- 1:21:06Speaker 3: the judge has issued a temporary and is this a
- 1:21:09Speaker 3: temporary injunction? What happens? What happens next?
- 1:21:14Speaker 5: Of course, so we get into the real legal world.
- 1:21:17Speaker 18: War will be appeals and back and forth from different courts,
- 1:21:19Speaker 18: I'm assuming, and we're assuming this will make its way
- 1:21:21Speaker 18: to the Virginia Supreme Court, where we anticipate will be successful.
- 1:21:24Speaker 18: The judges in multiple counties have already said that the
- 1:21:27Speaker 18: merits of this case are clear. This is clearly an
- 1:21:30Speaker 18: infringement of second madment rights, and so we pretty feel
- 1:21:33Speaker 18: confidence this goes with the Supreme Court that will win.
- 1:21:35Speaker 18: But we're incredibly happy that while this plays out in court,
- 1:21:38Speaker 18: and you know, the Democrats and Jay Jones and Abigail
- 1:21:40Speaker 18: Spamberg going to drag their feet and draw this out
- 1:21:43Speaker 18: as long as they possibly can, that Virginias don't have
- 1:21:45Speaker 18: to lose their rights during this ridiculous process.
- 1:21:48Speaker 3: Well said, well, we really appreciate you guys being all
- 1:21:52Speaker 3: over this story. Justin people. Where do people want to go?
- 1:21:56Speaker 3: Where do we need to send them to get more
- 1:21:58Speaker 3: information on the lawsuit? What else is going on out there?
- 1:22:02Speaker 18: Absolutely, make sure you go to NERRA dotal org. That's
- 1:22:04Speaker 18: where you can get all your updates for your legislative updates,
- 1:22:06Speaker 18: your updates on where you can get involved with the organization.
- 1:22:09Speaker 18: Of course, these lawsuits are costly. We need membership. We
- 1:22:12Speaker 18: need you to get involved. Take us, take us seat
- 1:22:15Speaker 18: the tables. Make sure you can protect rights not only
- 1:22:16Speaker 18: in your home state, but across the country.
- 1:22:18Speaker 3: No, it's it's a good good advice and good guidance
- 1:22:21Speaker 3: and a great job there. I know a lot of
- 1:22:23Speaker 3: gun owners there in Virginia are very excited, uh to
- 1:22:27Speaker 3: see what you guys are doing. Justin Davis with the
- 1:22:30Speaker 3: n r A National Rifle Association Director of Public Affairs. Justin,
- 1:22:34Speaker 3: We'll get you back on soon. Thank you anytime, Thank
- 1:22:37Speaker 3: you all right, our telephone number nine oh one two
- 1:22:40Speaker 3: six zero five nine two six. That's nine oh one
- 1:22:44Speaker 3: two six zero five nine two six. No, this is
- 1:22:47Speaker 3: a crazy story out of out of Oregon where this
- 1:22:51Speaker 3: ballot initiative is going to be decided on whether or
- 1:22:55Speaker 3: not to ban hunting and fishing in the state of Oregon.
- 1:23:01Speaker 3: It's called IP twenty eight, and it is an incredibly
- 1:23:06Speaker 3: controversial issue. And by the way, this is all being
- 1:23:10Speaker 3: framed as a case of animal cruelty. So they say,
- 1:23:14Speaker 3: the animal rights crowd, they say it's cruel to say
- 1:23:18Speaker 3: go fishing or go hunting, So if you're a deer hunter,
- 1:23:23Speaker 3: you would not be able to go deer hunting. According
- 1:23:25Speaker 3: to Katu, the ban the ballot initiative would ban hunting, fishing,
- 1:23:32Speaker 3: and animal slaughter in Oregon. I guess that's forcing the
- 1:23:36Speaker 3: entire state to go to go vegan. Supporters of initiative
- 1:23:42Speaker 3: Petition twenty eight, also known as the Peace Act, announced
- 1:23:46Speaker 3: that they turned in roughly one hundred and forty thousand
- 1:23:49Speaker 3: signatures to the Oregon Secretary of State's office and it's
- 1:23:53Speaker 3: the campaign's strongest showing they've been trying to do this
- 1:23:56Speaker 3: for quite some time. So if approved by voters, the
- 1:24:00Speaker 3: proposal would expand Organ's animal cruelty laws to cover animals
- 1:24:03Speaker 3: raised on farms, used in research, and living in the wild.
- 1:24:09Speaker 3: Supporters say it would extend these same legal protections currently
- 1:24:12Speaker 3: given to companion animals like dogs and cats. Opponents say
- 1:24:17Speaker 3: it would effectively end animal agriculture, commercial fishing, hunting, and
- 1:24:23Speaker 3: other industries that rely on animals. This is insane. I'm
- 1:24:29Speaker 3: curious that we have a lot of listeners in the
- 1:24:31Speaker 3: Great State of Oregon. I mean, what are you guys
- 1:24:34Speaker 3: going to do for beef? I mean, where do you go?
- 1:24:37Speaker 3: And it seems to me that if you're not able
- 1:24:39Speaker 3: to kill a cow, for example, in Oregon, then why
- 1:24:43Speaker 3: would they allow Why would state leaders allow beef from
- 1:24:46Speaker 3: other states to be brought into Oregon?
- 1:24:48Speaker 5: Right?
- 1:24:49Speaker 3: I mean, if you're going to ban it, you got
- 1:24:50Speaker 3: to ban it all the way. I reckon. That means
- 1:24:54Speaker 3: people there are going to they're going to have to
- 1:24:56Speaker 3: become vegans. What a weird story. Nine oh one two
- 1:25:01Speaker 3: six zero five nine two six hour telephone number. That's
- 1:25:04Speaker 3: nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
- 1:25:07Speaker 3: This is the Todd starn show.
- 1:25:18Speaker 11: Man.
- 1:25:18Speaker 3: Houston is really turning into a war zone. You had
- 1:25:23Speaker 3: police getting into a shootout with some idiot who stole
- 1:25:28Speaker 3: a car in a very popular shopping center area called
- 1:25:31Speaker 3: Highland Village, and then they were in a standoff there.
- 1:25:37Speaker 3: And just a little while ago, we understand about fifteen
- 1:25:40Speaker 3: hundred protesters are walking in Houston's East End and they're
- 1:25:45Speaker 3: all protesting this ICE agent who shot an illegal on
- 1:25:51Speaker 3: his way to work the day before. So we've got
- 1:25:53Speaker 3: Todd back with us. He's one of our listeners from
- 1:25:56Speaker 3: Patriot Talk nine to twenty in Houston. Todd, I think
- 1:25:58Speaker 3: we've got the signal shoot worked out there. But yeah,
- 1:26:02Speaker 3: this is a crazy story unfolding in Houston.
- 1:26:06Speaker 11: Boy, you ain't kidding. Check one, two, three, how's this microphone?
- 1:26:09Speaker 3: You're doing just fine?
- 1:26:11Speaker 11: All right? All right? Yes. And the craziness about it
- 1:26:16Speaker 11: was that I was trying to point out is no
- 1:26:20Speaker 11: the news media was on it from beginning local Okay,
- 1:26:23Speaker 11: they didn't have any video, any nothing for about the
- 1:26:27Speaker 11: first thirty two hours. And yesterday like a plane load
- 1:26:30Speaker 11: of these people showed up with the preprinted signs and everything,
- 1:26:34Speaker 11: and they're on this. In fact, it's over there in
- 1:26:37Speaker 11: the area where they just got rid of Caesar Chavez
- 1:26:40Speaker 11: Boulevard because the stuff about Caesar Chavez. But they are
- 1:26:48Speaker 11: now beating the drums and megaphones and all this stuff.
- 1:26:53Speaker 11: It's crazy, and I'm just warning everybody nationwide getting ready
- 1:26:57Speaker 11: to see all kinds of stuff here. But the one
- 1:27:00Speaker 11: thing you left out of your description, Todd, is the
- 1:27:03Speaker 11: shots were fired once this fifty two year old man
- 1:27:07Speaker 11: who had been in America now thirty five years, and
- 1:27:10Speaker 11: the family's claiming about how he had his paperwork in
- 1:27:13Speaker 11: order and he was ready to go file it after
- 1:27:15Speaker 11: thirty five years. But on top of that, he drove
- 1:27:19Speaker 11: his vehicle trying to run over one of the I says, oh, yes, okay.
- 1:27:23Speaker 3: Yeah, we mentioned that in the last in the last hour.
- 1:27:27Speaker 11: Now, I would love to be on a panel with
- 1:27:29Speaker 11: George Stephanopholis and what's his name, the son of the
- 1:27:37Speaker 11: lady newspaper lady, there you go. I'd like to be
- 1:27:43Speaker 11: on panels with all them people and say, please, which
- 1:27:46Speaker 11: one of you will want to raise your hand? I'll
- 1:27:48Speaker 11: give you a gun, and I'd take a Ford F
- 1:27:50Speaker 11: one fifty and will shop, you know, we'll we'll what
- 1:27:54Speaker 11: do you call it, match up against each other and uh,
- 1:27:58Speaker 11: I put a turbo on that F one fifty too,
- 1:28:00Speaker 11: you know, and see which one of them jumps forward
- 1:28:02Speaker 11: to volunteer, because this is crazy. And luckily our mayor
- 1:28:08Speaker 11: here in Houston has said that, you know, this is
- 1:28:12Speaker 11: a federal investigation. They're going to take care of it.
- 1:28:15Speaker 11: And that's another thing they're complaining about. They want independent investigation. Okay,
- 1:28:21Speaker 11: and you're doing good on the subject. But one other thing,
- 1:28:26Speaker 11: Please play some ac DC for me today because today
- 1:28:30Speaker 11: would have been bon Scott's birthday.
- 1:28:34Speaker 3: Ad you know what, we'll try to get that into
- 1:28:37Speaker 3: the end of the rotation.
- 1:28:39Speaker 11: Bon Scott he was the first singer and then he
- 1:28:42Speaker 11: died in that car crash. You know, but I love
- 1:28:46Speaker 11: the early ac DC. But that's the birthday. But we
- 1:28:49Speaker 11: got problems here in Houston, and get ready for the
- 1:28:53Speaker 11: rest of the nation to hear about what's going. What
- 1:28:57Speaker 11: did that say? They said, we have a problem, right.
- 1:29:02Speaker 3: Indeed, Houston does. Well. We certainly appreciate you calling in there,
- 1:29:07Speaker 3: and Todd, thank you for that for that update. My goodness, gracious,
- 1:29:12Speaker 3: So what a situation in Houston. But look, I mean
- 1:29:17Speaker 3: it's very clear you if you turn your car into
- 1:29:19Speaker 3: a vehicle and you try to kill an ice agent,
- 1:29:21Speaker 3: well they're gonna shoot back and they're gonna kill you.
- 1:29:24Speaker 3: I mean, it's really it's really that simple. Same thing.
- 1:29:27Speaker 3: In Memphis, Tennessee. We had a guy yesterday. Oh I
- 1:29:29Speaker 3: drove past his Dylan, did I tell you about this?
- 1:29:32Speaker 3: The traffic was all backed up, but I drove past it.
- 1:29:35Speaker 3: It was happening right next to the Jewish Community Center
- 1:29:38Speaker 3: and they had to lock down the whole facility. But
- 1:29:41Speaker 3: they had some some guy that the FEDS were after,
- 1:29:45Speaker 3: and the guy opened fire and cops fired back. Dead,
- 1:29:49Speaker 3: dead bad guy.
- 1:29:51Speaker 5: Yeah. My wife's trying to get me a move She
- 1:29:54Speaker 5: got the notification just like we did. I think she's like,
- 1:29:57Speaker 5: all right, we should move right. No, we're good, We're good.
- 1:30:00Speaker 3: You're all right, We're good, you're all right.
- 1:30:02Speaker 5: Yeah, I saw that.
- 1:30:03Speaker 3: All right, Uh, we got Oh we don't have to
- 1:30:05Speaker 3: take a break yet. Nine oh what two six zero
- 1:30:07Speaker 3: five nine two six. I want to bring this story
- 1:30:09Speaker 3: to your attention, and I Dylan, I guess I'm just
- 1:30:12Speaker 3: out of the loop here, and maybe I'm just a nerd.
- 1:30:16Speaker 3: I'm boring the headline from the New York Post how
- 1:30:19Speaker 3: unhinged sleezy men are swiping on hinge to find free
- 1:30:23Speaker 3: overnight stays and world cup post cities. I'm not familiar
- 1:30:26Speaker 3: with Hinge. Is that like a new dating site.
- 1:30:29Speaker 5: It's not new, it's been around, but it is the
- 1:30:31Speaker 5: same format, like you swipe on people to match with them.
- 1:30:36Speaker 3: So a single gal's address is now emerging as the
- 1:30:39Speaker 3: most attractive quality to sleezy guys on dating apps who
- 1:30:42Speaker 3: are on the hunt for free room and board rather
- 1:30:45Speaker 3: than true romance. They even have a term for it.
- 1:30:48Speaker 3: They're called hobo sexuals.
- 1:30:52Speaker 5: Wow, this is new, that this is new.
- 1:30:56Speaker 3: Emily Durham is a lifestyle and career content creator from Toronto,
- 1:31:00Speaker 3: that's the north of the border. Warning girls they're using
- 1:31:04Speaker 3: Hinge as Airbnb. She has one point six million video viewers.
- 1:31:10Speaker 3: Maybe I should shave my legs. Maybe that would get
- 1:31:12Speaker 3: us more viewers.
- 1:31:14Speaker 5: You don't show your legs.
- 1:31:16Speaker 3: Oh that's true. Well maybe that's the problem. So she
- 1:31:22Speaker 3: conveyed the story about a good friend that recently matched
- 1:31:25Speaker 3: with a handsome hunk on the popular dating app. After
- 1:31:28Speaker 3: a few flirty exchanges, the heartthrob offered to whine and
- 1:31:32Speaker 3: dime her chum with a week long date in her neighborhood.
- 1:31:37Speaker 3: Who writes like this, The guy says, the only catches.
- 1:31:41Speaker 3: I might need to stay over because I live far
- 1:31:44Speaker 3: and she was like, no, I don't know you. And
- 1:31:46Speaker 3: he was like, yeah, well, I also have a social
- 1:31:48Speaker 3: engagement in your neighborhood, so it might just make sense
- 1:31:51Speaker 3: for me to stay over. That's a super creepy who
- 1:31:54Speaker 3: would do that. Once a un named friend rebuffed their
- 1:31:58Speaker 3: requests to presumed a free loading fellow fast up. He said, honestly,
- 1:32:03Speaker 3: I'm not looking for anything serious. I'm not looking for
- 1:32:05Speaker 3: anything long term. I just want to take you out,
- 1:32:08Speaker 3: have a good time, and spend the weekend together. His
- 1:32:14Speaker 3: thinly veiled intentions nearly sent Durham over the edge. They're
- 1:32:18Speaker 3: using Hinge like air. So Hinge is like a dating site.
- 1:32:23Speaker 5: Yeah, it's like any other one like these swipe on
- 1:32:26Speaker 5: each other. I don't actually never used this, but I'd
- 1:32:29Speaker 5: assume you just swipe on each other and then it
- 1:32:31Speaker 5: puts you in a conversation together. Really, I think I
- 1:32:37Speaker 5: don't use daddy. I'm a married man. I don't know.
- 1:32:41Speaker 3: I just don't know. I just don't know about this,
- 1:32:45Speaker 3: all these apps. Have you seen the Instagram post? By
- 1:32:49Speaker 3: the way, I just think this is very funny. Apparently,
- 1:32:53Speaker 3: a very religious woman was so excited. A proud mom.
- 1:32:56Speaker 3: She shared a photo of her son claiming that he
- 1:33:00Speaker 3: was using an app to memorize Bible verses, but it
- 1:33:04Speaker 3: turned out to be grinder. She was so proud. Sweet mercy,
- 1:33:10Speaker 3: Lord have mercy. All right, Well, we'll be right back.
- 1:33:14Speaker 3: That's not what that's for.
- 1:33:15Speaker 2: I don't think.
- 1:33:33Speaker 3: All right, Welcome back, everybody. It's the Ton Starnes Radio Show.
- 1:33:36Speaker 3: Happy to have you with us today. Nine oh one
- 1:33:39Speaker 3: two six zero five, nine two six is our telephone number.
- 1:33:42Speaker 3: That's nine oh one two six zero five, nine two six.
- 1:33:48Speaker 3: All right. Uh, this situation with with President Trump and
- 1:33:52Speaker 3: and Iran. Look, I'm I'm a big fan of the president,
- 1:33:56Speaker 3: and I'm I'm excited about the direction we're going because,
- 1:33:59Speaker 3: let me let me tell you something, this is nuts.
- 1:34:04Speaker 3: Iran cannot be trusted. Iran will never honor a ceasefire.
- 1:34:09Speaker 3: I mean, it really is that simple. So I'm I'm glad.
- 1:34:15Speaker 3: I am just so glad that the president has finally
- 1:34:19Speaker 3: seen through all of this and is doing something, is
- 1:34:23Speaker 3: doing something about it. My question is how far do
- 1:34:26Speaker 3: we go here? What does victory look like for us?
- 1:34:29Speaker 3: Do we just blow Iran off the face of the earth.
- 1:34:33Speaker 3: How do we how do we determine when we actually
- 1:34:36Speaker 3: win this thing? And that is sort of an open
- 1:34:39Speaker 3: question right now. A nine oh one two six zero
- 1:34:42Speaker 3: five nine two six our telephone number. That's nine oh
- 1:34:45Speaker 3: one two six zero five nine two six story out
- 1:34:52Speaker 3: of Jackson County, Mississippi. Have you guys been following this?
- 1:34:55Speaker 3: An eighteen year old in Mississippi, a black young man
- 1:35:00Speaker 3: found dead after he vanished on the fourth of July.
- 1:35:06Speaker 3: Eighteen year old Nolan Xavier Wells pretty much an upstanding
- 1:35:12Speaker 3: young man. I believe he had an athletic scholarship, came
- 1:35:16Speaker 3: from a very good family, and it's his death is
- 1:35:21Speaker 3: causing a lot of controversy and rumor and speculation there
- 1:35:27Speaker 3: in southern Mississippi. So here's the deal. The NAACP is
- 1:35:35Speaker 3: getting involved now, Ben Crump, he's sort of like the
- 1:35:38Speaker 3: modern day version of Al Sharpton. He's getting involved in this,
- 1:35:42Speaker 3: and they're alleging that there was some sort of of
- 1:35:46Speaker 3: wrongdoing here because the young man, Nolan Wells, was hanging
- 1:35:54Speaker 3: out with an all white group of friends. So he
- 1:35:58Speaker 3: had he and his buddies, all white guys were down,
- 1:36:01Speaker 3: went down for a day of fun on the beach
- 1:36:04Speaker 3: at Horn Island, and that's where he was last seen.
- 1:36:08Speaker 3: And all of this happening on the afternoon of the
- 1:36:10Speaker 3: fourth of July. One of one of the local judges,
- 1:36:14Speaker 3: her son, her white son, was a part of a
- 1:36:17Speaker 3: part of all of this and was a part of
- 1:36:19Speaker 3: the friend group. So there the allegations are that the
- 1:36:23Speaker 3: white kids did something nefarious here and right now I
- 1:36:27Speaker 3: don't think there's any sign of foul play. Nobody seems
- 1:36:32Speaker 3: to know what happened to the kid, but he simply disappeared,
- 1:36:37Speaker 3: did not return with the group, and that's that. So
- 1:36:41Speaker 3: now one of the parents has released a statement. Her
- 1:36:44Speaker 3: name is judge. She's a Chancery circuit a chancery court judge,
- 1:36:49Speaker 3: Ashley Cole released a statement on social media sort of
- 1:36:55Speaker 3: getting the getting whatever information they can't out there. It's
- 1:36:59Speaker 3: just a crazy story, sor and I want to share
- 1:37:02Speaker 3: this with you, she said. Our family, along with the community,
- 1:37:06Speaker 3: grieves the loss of Nolan wells our thoughts and prayers
- 1:37:09Speaker 3: are with Nolan's family. Our son, Warren loved Nolan dearly. Unfortunately,
- 1:37:15Speaker 3: I feel that it is appropriate for our family to
- 1:37:18Speaker 3: dispel some rumors with facts based upon the social media
- 1:37:22Speaker 3: attention that is being diverted away from the Wells family
- 1:37:24Speaker 3: and their loss. So apparently she deactivated her Facebook and
- 1:37:29Speaker 3: that caused all sorts of chaos. She said, given the
- 1:37:32Speaker 3: very heightened emotional state of social media right now, I
- 1:37:35Speaker 3: feel for the safety of my child and my children.
- 1:37:39Speaker 3: My husband and I have six children, and we covet
- 1:37:42Speaker 3: their privacy. We do not believe it is appropriate for
- 1:37:46Speaker 3: our minor children's photographs to be circulated throughout the Internet,
- 1:37:50Speaker 3: presenting potential threats to their safety. Now here's where it
- 1:37:53Speaker 3: gets interesting. It turns out Judge Cole graduated high school
- 1:37:57Speaker 3: with Nolan's mom. It's a small town to small town Mississippi.
- 1:38:02Speaker 3: I graduated high school with Christina Wells Wansley. We are
- 1:38:06Speaker 3: from the same community. I had the utmost respect for
- 1:38:09Speaker 3: her and all of the Wells family. We mourned the
- 1:38:12Speaker 3: loss of Nolan with them. Our prayers have been and
- 1:38:15Speaker 3: will continue to be with them. My husband and I
- 1:38:18Speaker 3: were not at Horn Island at any point on the
- 1:38:20Speaker 3: fourth of July. No one in our family is trying
- 1:38:24Speaker 3: in any way to impede with the investigation by law
- 1:38:27Speaker 3: enforcement or to otherwise hamper the family and law Enforcements
- 1:38:30Speaker 3: quest for answers. Warren That's her son was interviewed by
- 1:38:35Speaker 3: the Jackson County Sheriff's Department and cooperated fully. He last
- 1:38:39Speaker 3: saw Nolan at three pm on July fourth. They left
- 1:38:43Speaker 3: around four thirty pm when the boat was taking on
- 1:38:46Speaker 3: water and they had an issue with the bilge pump.
- 1:38:50Speaker 3: Nolan made a decision to stay on the island and
- 1:38:52Speaker 3: return inland later with another group of friends. Yes, I
- 1:38:57Speaker 3: am a judge. I also value transparents. I apologize if
- 1:39:01Speaker 3: anyone was offended that I deleted my social media. There
- 1:39:04Speaker 3: was no nefarious motivation. Am I deleting my social media?
- 1:39:09Speaker 3: Social media has a lot of positives, but a whole
- 1:39:11Speaker 3: lot of negatives. Well that's true. We live in a
- 1:39:14Speaker 3: world of clickbaiting. Sad but true. My family is hopeful
- 1:39:18Speaker 3: this information will help to direct the attention to the
- 1:39:20Speaker 3: Wells family and their grief and their need for our
- 1:39:25Speaker 3: communities respect or support. So there you go. What a mess.
- 1:39:33Speaker 3: And so now they're alleged. I mean now people are saying, oh,
- 1:39:36Speaker 3: if you're a black family, never let your black child
- 1:39:39Speaker 3: go be the only black person around white people. Unbelievable.
- 1:39:48Speaker 3: Wells was a college football player and had taken a
- 1:39:51Speaker 3: boat with friends to the island on Saturday, but did
- 1:39:54Speaker 3: not return with them. That's according to the spokesman for
- 1:39:58Speaker 3: the United Cajun Navy. They were helping with the searge.
- 1:40:04Speaker 3: The sheriff says that all of the friends, the friend
- 1:40:08Speaker 3: group have been cooperating with the investigation. Unbelievable. So there
- 1:40:16Speaker 3: you go. The question is at this point, oh, now
- 1:40:21Speaker 3: the NAACP is getting involved. So this is this is
- 1:40:29Speaker 3: one of the bad things about social media because sometimes
- 1:40:33Speaker 3: you can have a situation and again it's people are
- 1:40:37Speaker 3: just saying, don't jump to conclusions here, and you should
- 1:40:40Speaker 3: not jump to a conclusion because again it's like, for example,
- 1:40:43Speaker 3: what's happening with Charlie Kirk right now. If you listen
- 1:40:46Speaker 3: to all of these people on these these conservative grifters,
- 1:40:51Speaker 3: and they're saying, oh, this is a this was Israel. Remember,
- 1:40:54Speaker 3: I mean, you had all of these very high profile
- 1:40:56Speaker 3: people out there on social media saying Israel assassinated Arley Kirk.
- 1:41:01Speaker 3: There was no way Tyler Robinson could have done this,
- 1:41:04Speaker 3: could have done the crime. Well, now, after just several
- 1:41:08Speaker 3: days of hearing all the testimony and this preliminary hearing,
- 1:41:12Speaker 3: come out. Guess what happens now you had the evidence,
- 1:41:18Speaker 3: and all of these people are starting to hush up
- 1:41:20Speaker 3: now because the evidence is coming out. The actual facts
- 1:41:23Speaker 3: are coming out, not the conjecture. And that's what's happening
- 1:41:27Speaker 3: here in Mississippi. And the problem is this can blow
- 1:41:30Speaker 3: up very very quickly, because we all know what happens
- 1:41:33Speaker 3: when race is involved. The Jackson County Sheriff's Department in
- 1:41:40Speaker 3: Mississippi putting out a call to action asking anyone who
- 1:41:43Speaker 3: was at the island on July fourth to reach out.
- 1:41:47Speaker 3: The sheriff says there have been many new tips and
- 1:41:49Speaker 3: pieces of information, but right now just tons of speculation
- 1:41:55Speaker 3: and rumors. The sheriff says that Wells did in fact
- 1:42:02Speaker 3: stay behind on the island and plan to catch a
- 1:42:04Speaker 3: ride back to shore later that afternoon, so clearly that
- 1:42:08Speaker 3: to me would take the friends out of the equation here.
- 1:42:11Speaker 3: But on Monday, a park ranger found Wells's body washed
- 1:42:16Speaker 3: up in the marsh at the edge of the island,
- 1:42:19Speaker 3: and he was brought back and taken to the state
- 1:42:21Speaker 3: Medical Examiner's office for an autopsy. Those results are pending.
- 1:42:28Speaker 3: The NAACP president Kurly Clark says they're going to ensure
- 1:42:32Speaker 3: the tragedy will be fully investigated, but we do not
- 1:42:35Speaker 3: want anyone to jump to conclusions before the facts are known.
- 1:42:41Speaker 3: And yet they immediately do just that. The NAACP then said,
- 1:42:45Speaker 3: it's sad, but I have to admit that race is
- 1:42:47Speaker 3: a part of the equation. Why isn't a part of
- 1:42:50Speaker 3: Why Why is race a part of the equation? In
- 1:42:53Speaker 3: DOUAACP unbelievable, the sheriff telling TV station w LOX, detectives
- 1:43:04Speaker 3: are coordinating with the District Attorney's office because the autopsy
- 1:43:07Speaker 3: will steer the course of the death investigation. And so
- 1:43:13Speaker 3: there we have it. And now Ben Crump is getting involved,
- 1:43:18Speaker 3: and that is only going to lead to really bad
- 1:43:22Speaker 3: things happening. According to a press release from Ben Crump,
- 1:43:30Speaker 3: who is again an Al Sharpton like race professional race agitator,
- 1:43:35Speaker 3: that the family of Nolan Wells has retained him as
- 1:43:40Speaker 3: their attorney. The family, of course calling for a thorough
- 1:43:44Speaker 3: and transparent investigation. Of course you wanted you. Of course
- 1:43:47Speaker 3: you want a full investigation. So we'll see how this
- 1:43:52Speaker 3: plays out. But just to bring in case you hear
- 1:43:54Speaker 3: about this, because it's it's making People magazine now, so
- 1:43:58Speaker 3: it'll this will become one of those big national stories
- 1:44:01Speaker 3: and you need to hear about it. Here first, nine
- 1:44:04Speaker 3: oh one two six zero five nine two six is
- 1:44:08Speaker 3: our telephone number. That's nine oh one two six zero five,
- 1:44:11Speaker 3: nine two six. This is the Tom Start Show. All right,
- 1:44:28Speaker 3: Welcome back, everybody. This is the Tom Stearns Radio Show.
- 1:44:34Speaker 3: Nine oh one two six zero five, nine two six
- 1:44:37Speaker 3: is our telephone number. That's nine oh one two six
- 1:44:40Speaker 3: zero five, nine two six. Here is President President Trump
- 1:44:46Speaker 3: saying he is officially done with Iran cut number twenty
- 1:44:50Speaker 3: nine fire over.
- 1:44:53Speaker 16: If the sea fire John is the EMU dead.
- 1:44:57Speaker 2: That's a very interesting question to me.
- 1:45:01Speaker 16: I think it's over. I don't want to deal with
- 1:45:03Speaker 16: him anymore. There's scum. You know what scum is. There's scum.
- 1:45:06Speaker 16: There's sick people.
- 1:45:08Speaker 6: They're lit by sick people, and they're vicious, violent people,
- 1:45:13Speaker 6: and if they had a nuclear weapon, they'd use it.
- 1:45:15Speaker 6: As far as I'm concerned, it's over. I'll speak to
- 1:45:18Speaker 6: our negotiators. They want to negotiate. They're good people, Steve
- 1:45:22Speaker 6: wood Cuff, Jared Kusher, but they have to come back
- 1:45:25Speaker 6: to me. As far as I'm concerned, it's just a
- 1:45:27Speaker 6: waste of time dealing with them. They're liars.
- 1:45:30Speaker 2: We make a deal, and if I.
- 1:45:33Speaker 6: Make a deal with him, we have a deal, and
- 1:45:34Speaker 6: he goes out, he talks, We make a deal. Everyone's agreed,
- 1:45:37Speaker 6: no nuclear weapon. We make a deal. They go outside
- 1:45:41Speaker 6: and talk to the press. They say, we never even
- 1:45:42Speaker 6: talked about it. There's something wrong with them. They're cuckoo.
- 1:45:47Speaker 6: As far as I'm concerned, it's over.
- 1:45:50Speaker 3: Yeah, well, good good, and that's the way it needs
- 1:45:52Speaker 3: to be. Let's bomb what we have to bomb, declare victory,
- 1:45:55Speaker 3: and get the heck out of there. That's what I say.
- 1:45:59Speaker 2: So.
- 1:45:59Speaker 3: Look a Democrat congresswoman, her name is Adelita Gravallia. She
- 1:46:08Speaker 3: is very upset because the America two fifty celebration, she says,
- 1:46:13Speaker 3: is too focused on Christianity. Take a listen to thirty place.
- 1:46:18Speaker 19: This iteration of America two fifty, this freedom two fifty,
- 1:46:22Speaker 19: to Donald Trump and his cronies have engaged in. There
- 1:46:25Speaker 19: is a real strong element of Christian nationalism that is
- 1:46:31Speaker 19: meant to define what it means to be an American.
- 1:46:33Speaker 19: Can you speak to that in what you guys uncovered?
- 1:46:37Speaker 20: Well, and that's incredibly problematic because our nation is built
- 1:46:41Speaker 20: on really the contributions of immigrants, of people from all
- 1:46:45Speaker 20: different countries, all different nationalities, and all different religions. We
- 1:46:49Speaker 20: do not have an official religion in this country, nor
- 1:46:53Speaker 20: do I believe should we. We are supposed to be
- 1:46:56Speaker 20: this melting pot where everyone comes together and is stronger
- 1:46:59Speaker 20: as a result of it. But under this administration, it
- 1:47:02Speaker 20: is more about how Christian you are. You know you're not.
- 1:47:05Speaker 20: If you're Catholic, you're not Christian enough. If you're a Muslim,
- 1:47:08Speaker 20: you're not part of our I mean, it's like this
- 1:47:10Speaker 20: sort of club of elitists, and they keep pushing people
- 1:47:13Speaker 20: away and out of what is supposed to be a
- 1:47:17Speaker 20: really solid celebration. Even some of the speakers that we're
- 1:47:20Speaker 20: speaking all spoke of religion and not as much about
- 1:47:24Speaker 20: what are, what is, what the contributions have been in
- 1:47:27Speaker 20: our country. We could have had a true celebration of art, music, poetry,
- 1:47:34Speaker 20: just a big, encompassing celebration of what it is to
- 1:47:37Speaker 20: be an American and everyone that has contributed.
- 1:47:40Speaker 16: But what it has been is.
- 1:47:43Speaker 20: An incredibly stifling, hot environment where nobody is coming to
- 1:47:47Speaker 20: because there's really nothing to see there.
- 1:47:51Speaker 19: Yeah, some of the earliest Americans were those who were
- 1:47:53Speaker 19: fleeing religious persecution, and that's been a longstanding tenant of
- 1:47:57Speaker 19: our country success. It's also the freedom of religion is
- 1:48:00Speaker 19: guaranteed in the First Amendment. I could go on and
- 1:48:02Speaker 19: on about how one religion shouldn't hijack at entire celebration
- 1:48:06Speaker 19: of America. Real quickly, trend lines are looking good for
- 1:48:11Speaker 19: the Dems to take back the House. Do you think
- 1:48:13Speaker 19: this would be something that would be investigated if Democrats
- 1:48:15Speaker 19: get the Gabble back.
- 1:48:17Speaker 20: Oh, I believe it will be.
- 1:48:19Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:48:21Speaker 3: Wow, Well, there you go. Another anti Christian communist. There.
- 1:48:27Speaker 3: Interesting story. We're going to pick this up tomorrow on
- 1:48:29Speaker 3: the show fort Worth, Texas. There is some crazy video.
- 1:48:33Speaker 3: We're going to have it over on the website Tom
- 1:48:35Speaker 3: Stearne dot com. A Christian preacher. This guy is one
- 1:48:40Speaker 3: of the street preachers. So they'll show up and they'll
- 1:48:44Speaker 3: speak on the sidewalks and preach from the Bible and
- 1:48:47Speaker 3: all that kind of stuff. So there were several of
- 1:48:50Speaker 3: them that showed up at a Pride event and they're
- 1:48:52Speaker 3: on public property and they were preaching against homosexuality and
- 1:48:58Speaker 3: what the Bible says about all of that. At and
- 1:49:01Speaker 3: a couple of police officers showed up and all of
- 1:49:04Speaker 3: this is captured on video which you can see at
- 1:49:06Speaker 3: the website Todd Stearns dot com. Police officers telling the
- 1:49:10Speaker 3: preacher that he was saying things that were offensive, and
- 1:49:16Speaker 3: specifically they called out his use of the phrase homosexuality
- 1:49:21Speaker 3: is a sin. They said that was offensive speech, and
- 1:49:26Speaker 3: they said calling someone the calling a gay person the
- 1:49:29Speaker 3: F word is also offensive speech. And they told the
- 1:49:35Speaker 3: preachers that they would receive tickets if they continued to
- 1:49:39Speaker 3: say that homosexuality is a sin. Now, ladies and gentlemen,
- 1:49:46Speaker 3: I went back and I looked at the Constitution, and
- 1:49:49Speaker 3: as near as I can tell, your precious little ears
- 1:49:53Speaker 3: are not protected from speech you find to be offensive.
- 1:50:01Speaker 3: And they were actually threatened after the police or after
- 1:50:04Speaker 3: the pastor said well, we're not going to stop, they
- 1:50:07Speaker 3: threatened to arrest the preachers. And again, this is all
- 1:50:11Speaker 3: in a public space. And if the drag queens are
- 1:50:14Speaker 3: allowed to I don't know prance about, if the activists
- 1:50:20Speaker 3: are allowed to wear their butlers's leather champs in public,
- 1:50:22Speaker 3: why would a preacher with a Bible not be allowed
- 1:50:26Speaker 3: to occupy the same public space. According to the videos,
- 1:50:31Speaker 3: the police officers and there were multiple Fort Worth police officers.
- 1:50:36Speaker 3: They told the Christian preachers that if they continued to
- 1:50:39Speaker 3: preach in a public space, they would be arrested for trespassing.
- 1:50:44Speaker 3: The preacher said, so if we preach in here, we're
- 1:50:47Speaker 3: going to be arrested for trespassing, and the officer said,
- 1:50:50Speaker 3: correct sir, Ladies and gentlemen, what is going on in
- 1:50:55Speaker 3: the Fort Worth, Texas Police Department? Do they not understand
- 1:51:00Speaker 3: that we have something called the US Constitution? Do they
- 1:51:03Speaker 3: not understand that these preachers have a right to say
- 1:51:06Speaker 3: what they're going to say, And by the way, it
- 1:51:08Speaker 3: very well may be offensive, But you know what, the
- 1:51:10Speaker 3: LGPT crowd they save stuff that's very offensive as well.
- 1:51:14Speaker 3: I don't see the cops threatening them. Many of them
- 1:51:19Speaker 3: actually stripped down buck naked. Not in Fort Worth, but
- 1:51:22Speaker 3: in places like Portland and Seattle and San Francisco. Nobody
- 1:51:25Speaker 3: got arrested. So you're telling me that in the great
- 1:51:28Speaker 3: state of Texas, you folks are going to start arresting preachers.
- 1:51:32Speaker 3: I don't know about that. All right, We've got to
- 1:51:34Speaker 3: leave it there, ladies and gentlemen. It's been a lot
- 1:51:36Speaker 3: of fun. Todd Sterns dot Com Todd Sterns dot com.
