And I think it's the best place to say things these days. so welcome to the show. Thanks for tuning in on this Indigenous Peoples Day. Happy Indigenous Peoples Day. I don't know what you are doing today to celebrate Indigenous People's Day. Some of you racists and KKK members might refer today to today as Columbus Day. And I really feel sorry for you. I today I'd like to give before we start the show, I really and I've already gone too far without doing this. We really should do our land acknowledgement. So I'm coming to you from Orange County, South Orange County in California. And I would like to give a land acknowledgement to the people who came before us. and owned this land before us to the developers. I'd like to acknowledge the developers. I would like to acknowledge the the politicians who sold our own land and property out from under us in the form of taxes and all of that other stuff. I'd like to to thank the political class. and I would like to thank all the corporations who have Branded the land of Southern California in so many different ways. So that's our land acknowledgement for today. I don't know. What are you doing to sell Indigenous People's Day? Can we ever unwind this? Do you guys think? Can we ever unwind it? it's pretty new to to do this. I I we're really gonna regret the whole BLM's Summer of Love era that Just tore down so many institutions. Indigenous People's Day. What are we celebrating? What are we celebrating? Actually, you know what? Let me just look let me look it off. Let me see what we're celebrating before I move on. Cause I do want to talk about the Fort Hood Shooter. I've got some things to say. I have some opinions on the live streaming of the Fort Hood Shooter execution. And I want to know what your opinions are. Let's see. But but let's just see what indigenous what are you supposed to be doing for Indigenous People's Day? All right, Indigenous Peoples Day. Let's see what The American Library Association has to say, which is a completely communistic program in America. the American Library Association. Hey, hey everybody, you know what? Let me just take one second and I hope I don't forget where I was going with this, but let's take one second. I want to encourage you right now. If you're watching this, you can hear my voice. I want to encourage you to look up who is on your library board. Your library, it could It could be listed as a library board of directors or it could be some other type of title in your area. Look up who's on there and you'll be shocked. And you'll be shocked. So when I tell you that you don't need to run for governor or Senate in order to make a difference. This is one of the offices I'm talking about. It's a little, tiny little office. No one thinks about it, but guess what the communists do? And they're all in the libraries. They're all on the library boards. Like really go, they meet, they have public meetings. I suggest when they run for office, they have public debates. I suggest you look up who's on your library board and you're gonna be shocked. You're gonna be shocked. The DSA owns our library system. So whenever you're wondering like why are these I can't believe these things are in the library where kids can see them. Yes, they know that's the point. That's why they're on the library board. All right. So the American association, the the American Library Association says Indigenous People's Day is is celebrated on this day, and it's meant to uplift and recognize the history and contributions of indigenous people and tribal nations. The purse one was recognized in twenty twenty one. So it is yeah, it's absolutely brand new. let's see. Data Bates. Excuse me. Take today and celebrate Indigenous Peoples Day with your students. Help them help educate them about the original people of the North American continent. And then the Library Association says, Don't forget to use all of the resources that we have. But that is what they say that it's meant to uplift and recognize the history and contributions of the Indigenous people and the tribal nations. No, but it's Columbus Day. It's Columbus Day. Which is meant to uplift and recognize the contributions of the man we credit with quote discovering America. Now I understand that that's a loose term, right? But we do what we call the New World, what we call United States of America, really that was the genesis of that, at least in our historical records. So we recognize that. As in our we have a lot of Italian in immigrants, and they recognized that day back in the day. And You know, why you might be saying to yourself, Well, why do we give the Italian immigrants this day? But we didn't give the tribal people a day. why did we do that? Well, there's a few different reasons for that. Number one, the tribes don't didn't want it. They didn't ask for it. They didn't even ask for this one, actually. This was just a bunch of activists. Most of the tribal leaders really don't want to make a lot of noise. They don't want to piss off the rest of America. They like their deal. Because they're robbing their own people blind with this arrangement that they have with the greater United States. We never should have let the Indians be self-ruling. We never that was a huge mistake. They should have been assimilated right from the start. Look at all the tribal land they have, and it's all a ghetto, and it's some of the most beautiful land in the country. What contributions are we celebrating? They were roundly and soundly defeated by the settlers of this country. And that's just history. And you might feel like, well, Kira, you're you you sound very uncaring about that. Well yes, because it's twenty twenty six. It's so long ago. This is our history. This is our history. Nothing we can't change it. The land acknowledgments not only do they not change it, but they make the the the people who really are the oppressors feel better. Democrats, left wingers, who support policies that depress progress and advancement for minorities in the name of helping minorities. And then they say, we do this land acknowledgement, but not a single one's giving up their land, not a single one is giving up their home, not a single one is giving up their job. You know, I saw that a few years ago, during the heat of the BLM era, I wrote an article when I was still working at Red State about the Chancellor of it was some university in Philadelphia and I can't remember which one. I think it might have been a Big Ten school. What big 10 schools are out there? and she a a woman, a white woman, and she had been appointed because she was a woman, you know, DEI and and people started criticizing her because she started talking about DEI and white fragility and all of that. And then people noticed, well, you know, you're the you're the top of the food chain there at your university. Why don't you give up your position for a black woman? Cause she wrote this whole article about my white privilege and you know we have to be deliberate about making space for black people to advance. Did she give up her position as chancellor? You might be surprised to learn she did not. None of these I don't take any of these people seriously. I take the harm they want to do seriously. I take their threats seriously, but I don't take their intellect seriously at all. At all. So happy Indigenous Peoples Day. I do they were I what a waste. What a a waste of time, a waste of resources. We're always told about what the indigenous people have added. What if they added lately? What if they added in the last hundred years, 200 years? All we get is these stories about how we used to be like we used to have a spiritual connection to the buffalo and we are caretakers of the hills. All that might be true. All of it is true, actually. It is true. And I believe in all that stuff, by the way. I believe in all the spiritual stuff. I believe they are pagans. I believe they have their own gods. I believe all and I believe it's all real. I believe in all of that. So I'm not even saying like, we shouldn't take these people seriously because they're just a bunch of woo-woo-voodoo people. No, not at all. Opposite. Opposite. There's a reason why the settlers were able to conquer this land. So I yes, of course, it it from this perspective, it looks terrible conquering and The the cycle of war and history and conquering, it's horrible. And, you know, I don't want to be on the receiving end of any of that. This is why I kinda why I do what I do. But the idea that we owe the people who were conquered hundreds of years ago that we owe them anything, we don't. They owe us. They owe us the land they're sitting on and wasting and not using. Almost to a person, the tribal leaders are corrupt scammers and liars. Who steal from their own people and use the power of their tribal influence and authority to steal more from the American taxpayer, but most importantly from their own people. You want to you we get no end of stories about black and indigenous, black and indigenous. Again, stop pairing us with all these other people. Stop. I don't want to be black and brown. We're not black and brown. We're black. Me and my family, we're black Americans. That comes with a very specific legacy. Stop putting us with brown people. We're black. But the left wing, DSA wing, communist wing has diluted Black American history and added all of these other people group to it. And then they get to steal our legacy, right? The way that those tribal leaders steal the legacy of their own people for their own personal gain. That's what these brown people are doing. So you lump us together with all the brown people out there. Now we don't get to just be black Americans. And that's a very specific struggle. And by the way, it's an intimate struggle. And that's why. As Americans, black and white Americans, as contentious as our relationship has been, when you look around us, we are partners now. We should only be dealing with each other. We should not be dealing with all of this other stuff when it comes to the racial question. The whole thing's been diluted. We're not brown. I'm not brown. I mean, you know, descriptive wise, description wise, yeah, you might look at me, she's got brown skin or tan skin or You know, if you're in my family, you'll call me yellow skin. What everybody's got a different description for it. I'm not talking about that, but race wise, no, we're not brown. I've said it before, I'll say it again, gird your loins, I'm gonna cuss here. but when you take black people and you put them into this big brown soup, you just get a pot of shit. That's what all this is. So I don't accept this black and brown thing. I hate it. I hate it. I don't participate in it. No, our struggle is not the same as the brown people who just arrived on these shores three years ago, four years ago, five years ago. No, absolutely not. We got a comment here. Thanos. Hello from Groffenwar, Germany. Well, hello out there. All the way from Germany, the miracle of the internet. Welcome to the show. Thank you. Welcome to California. Hello from California. I hope you guys are faring well out there. I've been watching what's going on in Europe. It's a bit crazy. I do feel that Europe is about to explode into civil war. I feel very strongly about that. I feel that we here in the United States are actually close to exploding the civil war. If we don't win the midterms and Democrats get the House, get Congress back and they begin what we know they're going to do, it's gonna have to be civil war. I don't I don't I eventually I think it will devolve into that because they're just we learned too much during COVID, freedom minded Americans, and I don't think a lot of Americans are going to sit back. And watch us slide into what's happening in the UK. Two-tier justice system. They are completely lost over there. It's actually terrifying. watching it. It's actually terrifying. that leads me to what I want to talk about today, though. And want to talk about the execution of Nadal Hassan, Fort Hood otherwise known as a Fort Hood shooter. I don't want to use his name too much. but If you are my age, then the Fort Hood shooting is almost as real to you as as nine eleven. So it's sort of the same it occupies the same space. Now, for those of you who are younger, let me explain to you why this is a big deal. Okay? So you all know why nine eleven was a big deal. And mm, while many of you might not remember it and remember the national mood at the time, you've certainly over the years seen you know, programs about it and you've heard us talking about it and the anniversary comes around and you know that a lot of us take it very seriously. It was a terrifying day. Okay, so imagine then in the years following that, in in just, you know, the decade, not even ten years, a rash of Islamic terrorist terroristic crimes hit the United States. Did you know that? A lot of you who are younger, my age is nodding their head already. You don't know this because the media wouldn't report it. It was horrible during the Obama years. It was going on all over the place. And you can just look it up, but there was, I think, forty nine attacks. and people died, like in the Fort Hood shooting. Like in that case, people died. there was a man who threw a kid off a balcony in at the America Mall of America. There was A man who drove his car through not even the one in Wisconsin, this was years before. A man who drove his car through Times Square. There's another woman who drove her car somewhere. Like these attacks were happening and we didn't know how to get control of it. And our president was Obama. So the the official line from our government was Islam is a religion of peace. These are just these are just lone wolves. There's nothing you can do about it in a society as big as America. That was what we were dealing with. So We felt like we were under attack. We felt like we were at war and we were watching these things happen. And then for this to happen right on our military campus, right? Right on our right on our soil. It launched a huge debate that is still raging to this day and did not change until Pete Hag Seth became the Secretary of War, which is I think a lot of you're gonna be shocked to know this, but our service members have not been allowed to carry their weapons on base. And that's why he shot up all those people because he knew they weren't allowed to carry their weapons on base. That was part of the gun control efforts. By the Democrats. Does it sound ridiculous? Yes, it should make you crazy. That is ridiculous. But that's what was the that's the environment. Secretary of War came in, and alongside the president, they said, enough is enough. This is ridiculous. Why wouldn't you be able to carry your weapon on a military base? I mean, if you've ever visited a military base, you can't visit casually. You have to check in. You know, everybody's monitored on that base coming and going. So it seems to make sense that you would do that. But no, the left wants you dead. They want you too scared to live or they want you dead. So that's the that's what was going on in America at the time. And this man, and I'm gonna read to you, I wanna read to you the description, okay? Cause we're gonna talk about whether or not you think this man deserves a death penalty and whether or not we should watch it happen. I have some opinions on this. I always forget this program does this and I don't know why whenever I make certain It looks like I'm celebrating the death penalty. And I am not. I am not celebrating it. I'm sorry. That's technology. But did you guys have you guys seen there's this discussion going around about whether or not we should be mean to AI? Is it okay to be mean to AI? Don't be mean to AI. I think I'm gonna do a show on it. I think I will, because I think it says something deeper about who you are if you feel moved to be mean to the robots. I think it says. as much about you as being mean to animals or babies would say. And that's pretty serious. So I don't know. That's an interesting discussion. anyways neither here nor there. All right. I wanna read from We need t do number six sky. I'm just gonna read a little bit from this 'cause I think a lot of people don't understand what happened at Fort Hood. It's still not widely reported. At the time it was almost it was censored basically from the media. PFC Marquesse Smith was on his way to Afghanistan in January, was completing routine paperwork about a bee sting allergy when the sounds erupted. This is a description of the event. A loud popping noise, moans, a sudden urgent shout of gun. Now, again, almost everyone is unarmed on the base. Some security people have arms, but everyone else unarmed. You have to surrender your weapon. Smith poked his head over the cubicle's partition and saw an ordinary sight in. Army officer with two guns firing saw an extraordinary sight, not ordinary. An army officer with two guns firing into the crowded room. The twenty-one-year-old Fort Worth native quickly grabbed the civilian worker he'd been helping with his paperwork and forced her under the deck. He lay low for several minutes, waiting for the shooter to run out of ammunition and wishing he too had a gun. After the shooter stopped to reload, Smith made a run for it, pushing two other soldiers in front of him. He made it out. Of the soldier readiness processing center only to plunge into the building twice more to help the wounded. Smith had survived the worst mass shooting on an American military base, a rampage of more than 100 shots that left 13 dead and 30 wounded, including the alleged shooter, Army Psychiatrist. It's not alleged anymore. Army psychiatrist Major Nadal Malik Hassan. I'm gonna stop you here, and I don't care what this sounds like. Nobody should have a ranking in the United States military with a name like Nadal Hassan. Not in five years after 9-11. That should have never been allowed to happen. We should have treated every Muslim in our military with suspicion. And I mean that. I mean that. I don't care how racist it sounds. I mean that. But instead, what we did is we opened our entire military and all our airport system to these people, by the way, because we had to prove that we weren't racist following nine eleven. And now we're lousy with these people. This guy was a a fox in the hen house. He was he was treating our soldiers and he hated them and he hated America. He hated the West because that's what his religion tells him to do. I honestly am not sure if you can serve America loyally and be a Muslim. And I know that a lot there I'm gonna get some pushback on this and pro I hope that I will get some responses from people who say that's not true. I'm a Muslim and my first duty is to my country always and to my commander in chief. I'll look forward to those. But I'm a nine eleven Gen Xer. And I've seen too much to pretend to pretend. All right, let's see. It could have been worse, but the heroics of Smith and the others, like a nineteen year old private who ignored her own wounds and the diminutive civilian police officer whose gunfire helped take down Hassan. as psychiatrist Hassan thirty nine listened to the soldiers' tales of horror coming back from Afghanistan. it turns out he was being radicalized. In recent days, Hassan had been saying goodbye to friends. He had given away many of his possessions, including copies of the Quran. At two thirty seven, they call it the Holy Quran, which we should not call it the Holy Quran. It's just the Quran. At two thirty seven Thursday and again around five, Hassan called neighbor Willie Bell. Bell could normally hear Hassan's morning prayers through the thin apartment walls, but Hassan skipped the ritual Thursday. Nice knowing you, old friend, Hassan said. I'm going to miss you in a message. About 1.30, so he goes to the base at 130 p.m. I want you to listen to this. And then I'm going to tell you what I think about this death penalty. At 1.30 p.m., witnesses say a man later identified as a son jumped up on a desk and shouted the words Alu Akbar. Arabic for God is great. He is armed with two pistols. One, a semi-automatic capable of firing three up to 20 mount rounds without reloading, packed into cubicles with a five. With Bipa High dividers, the 300 unarmed sol soldiers, unarmed soldiers, were sitting ducks. Those who weren't hit by direct fire were struck by rounds ricocheting off the desks and tile floor. When he decided that Hassan wasn't close to being out of ammo, Smith made a dash for the door. He'd made it outside when he heard cries from within. I don't want to die. This really hurts. Help me. Get me out of here. Smith rushed back inside and found two wounded, he grabbed them by their collars and dragged them outside. One person was hit three times three times in the left leg, the person who took him down, three times in her left leg, once in her right wrist. Some men begged for their lives. All right, Scott. Some men begged for their lives. Our military officers, our service members had to look at that man in the last moments of their lives, and they begged for their lives while they were doing their jobs of protecting the United States of America and protecting their families. And they had to beg this Islamic terrorist, this sheep in in this wolf in sheep's clothing. clothing that to beg that man for their lives. Brother Quiz is on the line. He says treason. Hassan said that he decided to switch sides leading to it and said earlier today should be death leading to it. said that death death should be by hanging rather than shooting a wheelchair. Sit him on a bench, right? A rope. Floor under the bench falls away. Right. We don't care about the wheelchair. We don't care about the wheelchair. He's in the wheelchair because somebody shot him because he killed a bunch of people. how to calculate a just right amount of drop enough to snap the neck or not slowly strangle and not so far ahead entirely removed. I don't know. Well I'll tell you what, brother, there's a whole science to it. There's a reason why we've used hangings for as long as we have. and yeah I think it can be done. I think it can be done. I think the firing squad I don't know how we got this is what leftists do. Like they They opposed the death penalty and they brought us like the electric chair because it was supposed to be more humane and then lethal injection, that was supposed to be more humane. Of course, we saw what happened with Krista Pike last week. But that's the leftist like trying to kill people humanely. and of course they don't work. They don't work. Sometimes I think that might be on purpose. So it it makes the whole process more horrifying. It should be horrifying. All right. Here's where I stand on the death penalty in the Hassan in the Nadal Hassan case. kill him. pro death penalty. I haven't always been. I used to be and then I wasn't, you know, I read the book, and what was the book with Susan Sarand it was a movie, Susan Sarandan and Sean Penn back when we were still giving Oscars for great performances, great performances in that movie. It was based on the true story of Sister Helen Jan Helen Prejean, who was a Catholic nun who ministered to men on death row and she met this man on death row and she, you know, and led him to salvation, I guess. And, you know, she really advocated for his release and really brought into question the you know, the morality of the death penalty. But I do believe in the death penalty. I I don't think the death penalty is revenge. There are many people, a lot of Catholics I'm not Catholic, but I have a lot of Catholic friends. A lot of Catholics will say, Well, no, I don't believe in the death penalty. you know, I don't believe in abortion and I don't believe in the death penalty. I find those comparisons ridiculous. I can't believe any Catholic ever gets away with making them. because aborting an innocent baby is not the same as ending the life of a person who, you know, in you know. could have possibly raped an innocent baby, you know? I don't think those are the same things. so I think that's an invalid argument from the start. But I do understand, you know, the Christian argument against the death penalty. And some of the arguments are that it's it's vengeful and the Lord says vengeance is mine. And again, I I just I just want to say no, that's your your understanding of the death penalty is warped, not mine. You you think you that's why you would you know, put someone to death. You don't think as a leader. You're thinking as a member of the congregation. And you're thinking, this is wrong. This is cruel. You know, and and it is bad. I mean it's it's not good. It and and that's what what you're thinking of it. Like you're not thinking of of somebody who's a leader or responsible for civilized society. So in your mind, yeah, the only reason to kill someone like this would be revenge. But when you're responsible for the development and the guidance of an entire society, and that requires rules that we all live by and follow, forget it like no matter what your beliefs are, your faith, or we have certain rules we all have to follow, or we don't have a civilized society. So leaders will might not every leader, but leaders might look and say, this isn't about revenge. This is simply about bout saying that we have certain boundaries. We have certain lines. There are certain requirements we all agree upon to for the privilege of you to call yourself a human being. And the bar is very low on that. But if you cross that line, then we can no longer as a safe and healthy society thrive with you in it. So we're not bringing judgment on a person because we don't decide what happens to a person's soul. The death of the body is not the death of a person. So we don't decide what happens to a person's soul. That's for God. We're just sending them to God a little sooner. And it might be one case where it's a young man at seventeen, he made a terrible mistake and he killed somebody or killed a police officer and he's been on death row for thirty years and maybe he's repented. And should we take a second look at that case? I understand people think about cases like that and they say, Yeah, you know, the death penalty is pen or or worse, cases where people have been wrongly convicted in death and that happens too. aga I'm not ignorant to the arguments against it. But there's no place in our society for someone who would put a you know swear an oath to the United States of America and our constitution to protect our citizens and protect people who are protecting our citizens and then murder those people. Okay? Or someone who's Someone who does the unthinkable to a child or an old person, you know, a friend of mine, friends of mine, back in Gary, when we first moved here to California and said goodbye and found out a few weeks later their elderly parents had been kidnapped from their home and murdered in Gary, Indiana. two young gentlemen Two young men broke into their home. These they were in their 80s. They were an elderly couple, retired couple couple in their 80s. Mom was a teacher. The dad, I think, was a former professor. These this was a black couple, intellectual, civil rights workers, salt of the earth community members. Two black boys broke into their home. Tortured and beat both of them, dragged them out of the home, took them to the woods, beat the wife in front of the husband, and shot her in the head, and then shot the husband. And then they took his car and they took his veteran's watch, the watch he got for serving his country. And they went on a joyride. And they rode all over because they're stupid. You know, they were not we're obviously these weren't the brightest people on earth, so they did get caught. They went on a joyride around northwest Indiana. I remember my friend telling me what got me the most was that he had my father's watch on when they picked him up. Those men deserve to die. Not because it is up to us to say what happens to their soul. But because if you are going if you could target an elderly couple like that, and we're always told, you know, black empowerment, lift up the black family, lift every we all gotta support black business and black everything, and we ought gotta all be blacky, black, black, black all the time. Supposed to vote according to our race. Supposed to shape our morals and our values according to our race. All the time we're told that. But you look at a case like this and and these so so if that's important to us and you look at a case like this, and not only did those men violate the laws of nature, the laws of God, the laws of community, but according to you and your rules, they've also violated the laws of our race. No. We cannot house and feed these men for the rest of their lives. They're gonna have to go meet their maker and make their peace with him. So I have no problem with the death penalty. It is not vengeance. It is judgment. It is judgment on this side. The Lord will have the final say. We're not killing him. We're just ending his physical life here. Hassan I keep wanting to call him Hassan Piker. Nadal Hassan deserves this execution. It's been a long time coming. Let's talk about should we publicly stream it? And I think this is where it gets a little more gray. short answer in case you're wondering, my opinion should we live stream the execution of Nadal Hassan? My short answer is yes. Yes. I think we should. I I know that it is It is distasteful. It is concerning. I don't like the idea of it. It does feel cringe. It does feel cringe. and I think it's gonna have some deep consequences for us for it to be live streamed. I still am in favour of live streaming it. Now will I watch it? I don't think so. I don't think I will. I choose not to. I mean, even when you see videos of like horrible events happening, I typically don't choose to watch to see the end of a person's life. Human beings are not meant to see each other extinguish. We are not, not violently. We're not even really meant to see each other peacefully, like extinct. We're not meant to die, period. We were never meant to die. That's why when people die, it feels so wrong because we are meant to live forever with our Lord. And you guys should know the rest of the story about what that happened. The story's still unfolding. So but but w I I don't I don't think we're we're not meant to witness the violent end of somebody. This is why it is so traumatic for our soldiers, our veterans, you know, to go overseas, not only to see the worst, but sometimes have to be the perpetrators of the worst in the name of war, in the name of defense, in the name of their orders. And that's why when they come back, it is traumatic. It is traumatic. We're not meant to witness that level of degradation. We are not meant to wit it is wrong for humans to kill humans, right? We're not meant to witness that. It's a sacrilege. It's a s it's a it's a real sacrilege. So And even when you're doing it injustice, it's not how it was supposed to be. Even when it's the right thing to do, it's not how it was supposed to be. It will always be traumatizing. It should be traumatizing. Here's why I think this should be public. We need to start making public examples of these people. We need to start making public examples of all of them. Ilhan Omar, her place is getting raided today. No one's above the law, are they, Ilhan? No. Suddenly on on the left, everyone's above the law. Everybody's like, my gosh, can you believe the pr political prosecution? Sending the FBI are we never allowed to investigate? Once you get to Congress, does this mean you're never allowed to be investigated? Or it's political prosecution. lest we forget the Biden FBI went through the first lady's underwear drawer. For no other reason than the fact that they didn't want Donald Trump to be the president of the United States again. No one's above the law, are they? But we need public examples. We need to see that the government is hearing us. People are sick of everything. We're sick of everything. We're sick of everything. And what we have discovered since day one of Doge to now is that we have been stolen from on every level. And there's still stuff we don't don't even get me started on NASA. And what are they spending all this money on? We went to the moon in drop your conspiracy theories in the comments. We went to the moon in sixty when we go, sixty nine, sixty-eight. We went to the moon and NASA's had a trillion, spent a trillion dollars a year. What's our budget? It's crazy. Like a trillion dollars a year or whatever since then and we haven't been back. Don't get me started on where like all of this is money laundering. It's not an accident that once Doge started shutting off the spigot of USAID in different areas, now South America is turning red. It's a red wave of liberty across South America. All of a sudden, South America was completely socialist, totally helpless. well, never. That's just the way it is. The United States is the last, the last bastion of freedom. suddenly. The USAID goes under and not only does rap drop off the music charts for the first time in forty years, but now South America is turning red. It's all fake. It's all fake. You haven't been allowed to hear the real truth of how the people around you feel. So we do need to make examples of these people, and they have to be harsh examples. You should be scared to defraud the American people. You should be terrified to walk on to a military base and harm our service members. You should be terrified. You shouldn't even consider. Taking a gun and crouching in a closet and waiting for the president of the United States to arrive for an event. It shouldn't even cross anyone's mind. That most people make when they're considering whether or not they can break into the police station. There's consequences for that. It should be and everybody anybody it's been done, right? Like nothing new under the sun. But almost everyone on earth, almost everyone on earth who would have a thought about breaking into a police station would then say, that's too much trouble because they're gonna throw the book at you. It's the cops, right? They don't like it when you treat them dirty. They're gonna throw the book at you. They're gonna if you kill some a cop, they're gonna seek the death penalty. They'll never stop looking for you because it's the cops. If they protect anything, it's gonna be their stuff, it's gonna be their people, it's gonna be their workers, their integrity, their families. You would never think about doing that to a cop station because the consequences are so dire and so public and they'll and they and they will drop. The cops will be a cop killer, the cops will find you, right? That's how everybody should feel when they're about to defraud the American people. They should feel like that. They should feel like they're about to break into a police station. So we have to make examples of these people. Ilhan Omar should be deported and everyone in her family should be deported. I said this earlier today, I recorded a little bit for my Instagram, and I was saying, I know that in America in the in our justice system is you are innocent until proven guilty. And most people don't believe that anymore and we don't operate that way. Hello, Lindsay Clancy. It's like crazy. But I'm not a jury and I'm not a judge and I'm not a lawyer. This guy's guilty and I think he should die. To my mind, I think he should die. So I don't care about, you know, any any or and and Ilan and Ilhan Omar, I'm sorry, I got my crises mixed up. And Ilhan Omar is guilty. And I think she should be deported. And I think everyone in her family should be deported. Not a single one of them is safe to be here. And probably if all of their residency hinges on her citizenship, then probably, yeah, if she gets deported, they should be too. Why would you leave them here? We need to make an example of her. I do think that the Hassan execution should be live streamed. I don't know who I would recommend to watch it, but I think not you, but our enemies. That's who we should want watching it. That's who we should hope are watching it. I read an article, of course, in the Times or Wall Street Journal or some leftist rag, and it was about, you know, what could live streaming this open us up for more terror, for more you know, copycats or revenge. Yeah, yeah, it could. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. And then we squash those too. And when then we arrest those people too, and then we we kill those people too. And you do that until people know you don't try this stuff. I I I think it says something. It also reminds people that we're not afraid to do the ultimate, to make the toughest choice imaginable to protect our shores, our service member members, and our citizens. Before it's time to go, I wanna talk a little bit about what the spiritual consequences are gonna be for airing a live execution. Again, I just I don't think it will be something I watch. I don't I don't want to. I don't want that sitting in in my spirit. It is It's a morbid It's a dark privilege to watch someone leave this earth. I don't know how else to put it. And I don't privilege makes it sound like it's yay. That's not what I mean, but I mean in the terms of it's a life and human life, you know, is special and it has value. It is unique, totally unique in this universe and uniquely created. And so it should be, it should be traumatizing. To watch it leave this plane. It should be, it should affect you. And if it doesn't, that is a problem. That would scare me. I do I I I do think that there will be spiritual consequences for it. Watching someone die, it again, I just I gave you the example of our veterans who return home, or if you ask anybody who's had the misfortune to be in an event where you've lost people. It traumatizes you. You're never the same again. But I wonder if there was ever there was some value in the way that they used to do it in the medieval times, where you know they'd have these public executions and people would come out for the day. And we'd we we think it's my gosh, we would bring their picnics and that's a horrifying. Yeah, it's horrifying. I do. I do think it's horrifying. But we always imagine, just because we have distance from history, that the people who were suffering these fates were probably innocent people and they didn't deserve it. But some of those people were horrible people who raped and murdered and stole, stole people's children, tortured their elderly family, you know, did the most horrific things to human beings. Some of those people were those. And to those people, those citizens, maybe it wasn't about a nice family day out. Maybe it was about witnessing justice. How often have you been a witness to justice? Think about it. We're not even allowed to talk about the apparatus of justice anymore. We're not even allowed to call it. You know, we we we can't call homeless people homeless people. They're unhoused or underhoused. We can't call Eric Garcetti, one of the former mayors of Los Angeles, the last empty suit. He he he wouldn't let even let us call them criminals. We would have to call them justice affected individuals. That that's I I think that's still the official term of the Califor of the Los Angeles government. Justice affected individuals. We're not even allowed we're not allowed to say alcohol addiction, you know, we we we say struggle with substance abuse or or disordered drinking. we can't say terrorists, you know, we can't we can't use all of these terms to describe people. We can't say pedophile, they're minor attractive people. We've been muting down the terms and the apparatus of justice for forty years now. It's two point or now we're we're not even we're not even supposed to talk about it. we don't talk about it in public or We only talk about justice in terms of race, right? We really can't talk about the crimes. that's unseemly. No, we can't show you footage of of people falling from the buildings on September 11th. It's too traumatizing. No, it's not too traumatizing. It's just traumatizing enough because what that does is requires justice, right? Then we're looking at it and we're going, we want justice, we demand. Justice. So when they hide these things from us, like the media has been doing with Hassan forever, for decades, when we hide the and every other Islamic terror attack that has happened on our shores since nine eleven, two thousand and one, when they cover it up or they dilute it, they dilute what Ilhan Omar has done, they dilute people like her, traitors like her. What they do is they dilute the vision of justice. When we let you know, people like jo Jocelyn Nungari Nungari or you know any of the other people w young women that we have lost, when we let their names fade away or when we when we don't demand that their assailants be prosecuted or be brought to justice, we let justice fade. It it stay when we don't talk about it, when it's not You see, it's not in ac it's not just that they're uncomfortable with their bad ideas on the left that they that they don't want to talk about this kind of stuff. It's because if you talk about it, you're gonna want justice. If you see it, you're gonna want justice. You know what's gonna happen when we watch this execution of Nadal Hassan? We're gonna want more. It's gonna be a bloodlust. It's gonna be a bloodlust. And that's why I'm not watching and that's why I want it because I think it's time. I'm not not I'm not saying that the bloodlust is going is a bad thing. I think it's where we are, it's where we've been pushed to. I've spent my entire career trying to avoid this part of our history. I have done persuasion. I have done, you know, reaching across the aisle, talking reasonably with people, sharing ideas. Look, if we just bring down the heat, we can all really come together. No, I'm done with that. You people are crazy. You've always been crazy. I was the one who was wrong. And believing that there were people left to persuade. I don't know if there are. But I don't care. That's for somebody else. That's for somebody else. That's somebody else's battle. I'm done. I'm Gen X and I'm done. We're heading for bloodlust. That's where we are. I it won't stop with Hassan and it shouldn't. Put to death, live stream it. And embrace yourselves for the consequences. And don't mistake my passion for this as excitement. I am not excited for an America that is locked in bloodlust. But blood requires debt. Right? Blood creates debt and requires payment. I'm in the old testament right now, just digging through it. And And I've decided this time around, for the first time in my life as a Christian, I'm taking every word literally. I don't look at it figuratively anymore. I'm I'm just like, this is my thought experiment. And it does change a lot for you when you decide I'm gonna read it literally. But you know, when let's take the story of Cain and Abel. I think even if you're secular, you probably know that. Cain murdered his brother and the Lord You know, was looking for Abel, and he said, I can't find him where it's as if the Lord didn't know where he is. He knew he wanted an answer. Where is your brother? And Cain says, Am I my brother's keeper? And of course the Lord says, His blood screams out to me from the ground. I can hear it. And it requires justice. Even back in the early days, the first people, even then, the law was set. You spill human blood a Debt must be paid. That's why we have Jesus Christ. He's the debt, right? He's paid the debt. If blood is spilled, that is that's the law of the universe. If blood is spilled, a debt must be paid for it to rectify it. We've been spilling lots of blood here on American soil. I won't get into even what we're doing abroad. We have have spilled so much blood on American soil that has not. been answered for. The debt has not been paid. There is a lot of unpaid debt. Starting with nine eleven, at least, at least, at least. So there's a lot of unpaid debt out there. Spilled human blood requires justice. The execution of Nadal Hassan is justice. That justice will requ will that justice will create an appetite. That's my prediction. I think it's very dangerous. I think it's very dangerous to publicly to air this publicly. And I'm all for it. I think it has to be done. And I don't want it. And all this might sound co contradictory to you. It's not I don't want any of this. I don't want any of this. I don't want to be sitting here and telling you that I don't want Muslims in charge in different places. I don't want that. I don't want to be sitting here and telling you that I'm tired of all these foreign immigrants coming over and they don't. assimilate and they don't learn to speak our language and they don't become Americans. I don't want to be that person. I don't want to be doing any of this. I don't want to be talking about any of this. I want the right to live in peace and raise my family and seek my version of the American dream. That's what I want. I don't want this, but I didn't ask for any of this, but now I'm here. And like most other Gen Xers, I've tried to be reasonable, tried to be peaceful, actually tried to just be invisible. I mean, Kira Davis can never be invisible, but as far as our generation, you know, we didn't ask for much because we knew we weren't going to get it. The boomers abandoned us for their real families, right? The boomers had their their practice families. A large portion of my generation realized that they messed it up. They didn't want to be parents the first time. Had their second families, that's the millennials, that then they raised in guilt. So then we had the participation trophy generation. Gen X just sandwiched it. We didn't get their inheritance. We're not getting the boomer and air, or we're getting their dumb beanie baby collections, right? And we didn't get the participation trophy to do that the millennials got. We're just this sandwich generation and Gen Xers aren't complaining about that, believe me. We don't care. Leave us alone. But you won't. You didn't. Everybody's acting like a freaking fool out there. So, you know, when peaceful men are pushed beyond the brink of peace, when peaceful men are pushed to war, when they're pushed to react, they can never be peaceful again. That's the thing. That's why you always have to be careful. You always have to be discerning when you're talking to somebody and you're pushing somebody. And if they're not reacting, and you need to decide, am I pushing a peaceful man too far or is this person just really weak? If you push push the peaceful man too far, Once he starts unloading, he's not gonna stop until you are completely neutralized. That's where we are that's where we are with Gen X. So that genie is not going back in the bottle, that toothpaste is not going back in the tube. The day they killed Charlie Don't talk to me about violence and how cringe and cruel it will be to murder a murderer on national TV. You guys celebrated Charlie's death. You're still celebrating it. Don't talk to me about it. You don't care. You don't care. You're you don't care. You like death and you like watching people die. So we'll give you we'll give you what you want. How about that? We'll give you what you want. This is where we're at. So I want everyone to be very sober minded about this. I know there's a lot of grandstanding and a lot of big talk online, right? Some people on the right are like, yeah, we're gonna, yeah, Murray, we're gonna we're gonna execute him. And some people on the left are like, my gosh, clutching my pearls. I kind of I don't believe in political violence. I mean, thank God Charlie Kirk is dead, you know, he deserved it. But I don't believe in anyone else. That's what we have and both ends of that spectrum are wrong. We should be dreading this, said We should be nervous for what it portends for the future. We should be nervous about what it will about the spiritual implications it will have for our society. And we should be praying for justice. But that doesn't mean that this isn't the right thing to do. I do think it's the right thing to do. I do think it should be broadcast. And I do think th that the bloodlust that it will I believe it's gonna feed an appetite for bloodlust. And I think I think that's where we are. It's war. I feel really weird saying it. I keep saying I I I pretty much say it every episode now. I pretty much say it every speech I give now. I'm starting to see other people catch up. I'm starting to see other people. place it in that same esteem. Like I I'm starting to see other people say it cautiously, gingerly. But it is war. If you look at what's going on in the UK right now, they're already in civil war. I just I think the the remnants of civilized society are still standing. So people are still in homes and they're still renting and there's still grocery stores that are open and they're still paying bills and it looks like things are running normally. But that's just the last gasps of their society running on the fumes of the empire. They've already been conquered. The people just haven't figured some of the people have, but not enough. And even when they do, they have nothing to fight back with. I don't I'm not one of those people that thinks that's you know, that's the end because our neither did ours, right? Neither did our founding fathers. They had pitchforks and hunting rifles and they did it. So it can be done. That's why revolution is so dangerous, because the heart and soul can be way more powerful than arms. This we know. Then body, it's this we know. History tells us all over the place, all over the place. So that's nothing to look down on our UK brethren about. When they want freedom, if they want it bad enough, they'll figure out a way to fight for it. We're here there too, everybody. We're here too. We're we're here there. We're there. We're there here too. You know what I mean? But Americans, and this is the thing that gives me hope. Americans are not the British, right? We are still quite salty, even though COVID dulled a lot of our senses, dulled us a little bit and really really taught us a lot about where some of our American co compatriots stand. It taught us that we're the American spirit is still alive and well. We're still pretty feisty. A lot of us are determined not to go through that again. And of course we have our Second Amendment. We're gun owners. There's more guns than people in this country. if you don't own a gun, you should learn how to use one and get one. You should get one. Absolutely. I think every I think every American woman should have a gun. I think that I I feel like that should be a pre prerequisite. You should know how to use a gun and have one in your home. You can have a small. One that you can use safely. You can use them safely, everybody. Like you use a pair of scissors, like the scissors don't move unless I move them. So I don't think we are as close to the type of dire situation that the UK is in, but we're close and our midterms are going to determine a lot. I know a lot of you are like, I don't like the gas prices. I don't like the war in Iran. I keep telling my kids, and I believe it's true, that day after election day, these gas prices are gonna drop. It's no wonder that President Trump's so pissy. I understand why he's pissy. I get it. This is sedition, what the media is doing. When you turn off the media, which I did recently, when you turn it off and you just like read your news or don't eng I have to, I'm I'm in the biz, but you read your news, you realize, my goodness. Yeah, they're not reporting the situation it the way that is really happening, the way it's going down. So I I know that that the media is making it seem like, things are worse. And actually all the indicators besides the price of gas are they're better. But the media and we're not necessarily feeling it right now, but we could be feeling it if the media maybe would tell us. And we might feel a little more sense of national hope. Anyway, the media makes a difference in all of that. Trump knows that and that's why he hates them. I don't blame him. I don't blame him for any of this. But we will be we will be on our way to the UK if you sit out the midterms. And you know I'm not like, you know, Democrats are vote blue no matter who. What what would we say for red? Vote red even if they're dead. Mitch McConnell, you know I'm not like that. But we have started a job here. We actually started a job in 2024. We sent President Trump there to start the job and he has. He has begun it. Eighteen months, two years. That's not a long time to start undoing 40 years of corruption. He has been doing a lot, but that's a job that requires another two years. And so we need to get him the tools to do the job. We can't just elect him and be like, okay, good luck. Turn everything around overnight. And we're just gonna go back to our lives. We can't. We're still in the spike. It's still a war. It's war. And if we don't want it to be a kinetic war, we need to win the midterm. So I'm quite serious about that. Let me know what you think about the execution of the Fort Hood shooter. Should we do it live? Are you gonna watch it live? What are your feelings about it? Is this a good thing for our society? Is it a bad thing? Let me know. Am I wrong to feel the way I do? Am I right? I really want to know what you think. I do think we need to be talking about this, but whether you are for it or not, you should be praying. And you should be praying for our country to turn quickly back to God. I really do think that's our only salvation. I do at the end of the day. but I will do my part to get us there. And we do that also by just upholding God's laws with the laws of justice and all of that. All of that is part of how we serve and how we turn our country back towards God and towards prosperity. All right. So let's take off. We'll take off for now. Don't forget to follow me everywhere. my voter guide is up at just cure davis dot com. If you need some help voting here in California with the props. I really lay out the props. All of the individual endorsements are at the end, but spoiler alert, I have not parted ways with the Republican Party of Orange County at all, except in one race. they are not giving an endorsement for the Ken Calvert and Young Kim, is that seventy-two? Can never remember. They're not giving an endorsement for that race, or for excuse me, forty-two. They are because it's two Republicans, they have chosen chosen not to endorse. I am endorsing Ken Calvert. I young Kim's fine, got nothing personal against young Kim, but I think we can do better. I d I think she's been a fine representative. She hasn't been as good as I would have preferred. For a Republican. So I think we could use a new, a different kind of Republican in there. So I'm supporting Ken Calvert, but you know, it's a red seat, not either way. So you make your choice. That's a really the only place that I have parted ways with the Orange County GOP on our endorsements. so endorsements are at the end there, but go look that up. Follow us everywhere. anything else I need to mention? I don't think so. follow me. Yeah, follow me. Hey. Listen, I know that everything feels like it's falling apart right now. I know that you're looking at how we felt the day after election night in November 2024 and how what a relief that felt like and how it felt like we're back. I think we're still back, guys. I think that we are. And I said this from the start, and I just want to remind you really quick. I know we gotta go, but just really quick, I wanna remind you. I said this from the start. I said it's all gonna fall apart before we can put it back together. It's all gonna get worse before it gets better. This is what it looks like. It's all looking like it's getting worse. We've got wars here, wars there, gas prices, what's going on with the immigration situation, Ilhan Omar, all I know, I get it. I really do believe America is back. I think we're back. But we're at the falling apart before it builds back together. And if you can hang on for a few more months, I truly, and I'm not saying this because I'm a Sica fan, I really believe this. I genuinely believe that Donald Trump and his cabinet, people like Scott Besson, who I listen to very closely, who has been right on almost everything, they have said from the start, from day one in twenty twenty five, end of twenty twenty six is going to be when we start seeing things humming. And it's gonna you've never you're never you'll have never seen the economy like this. Okay, we're we're nearing the end of twenty twenty six. I believe them. I think it's coming. Hang in tight, get to the polls, vote, vote one last time, vote for your lives because we're not done voting for Donald Trump yet. We're not. And then let's see what the next two years bring us. Okay. I I think we're nearing the end of the falling apart section and we're about to put it all back back together. Don't quit too soon. Don't quit too soon. We're almost there. I believe it. All right, follow me everywhere. Don't forget sunlight is the best disinfectant. So go out there and shine a light.
