• 0:10
  Speaker 1: Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: America's favorite gun, total Bible clinging, deplorable America.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: That's this American.
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: Todd starts.
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: No, I have no idea what's going on here? Yeah,
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: it's uh, this is a head scrancher. Ladies and gentlemen. Hello, everybody,
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: welcome to the Tom Strange Radio Program. Well, what an
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: honor to have you with us today. We have a
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: terrific show lined up for you. But we've got to
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: talk about about the big elephant of the room, which
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: is Mike Lintel over at my pillow. And I don't
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: know if Mike has been on the road. You know,
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: he's running for governor of Minnesota, and maybe he's been
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: staying in hotels, hasn't hasn't been. He didn't pack his MyPillow,
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: and maybe he's not getting a good night's rest. But MIKEE.
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: Lindell is now becoming pro illegal alien. I know this
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: is a shock to a lot of people. As a
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: matter of fact, Mike Lindell, it was not something he
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: didn't misspeak anything. As a matter of fact, he's doubling
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: down on his belief that we need to give amnesty.
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: We need to provide some sort of a path to
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: citizenship for some of the illegals who live among us.
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: He was doing an interview with the Washington Examiner, and
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: he said he supports a six month amnesty period for
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: illegal aliens. And so just so you understand, we're going
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: to play this audio from Mike Lindell, and people are
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: just really puzzled by this. And I think there's just
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: been there's been a lot of frustration within the conservative
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: movement about so many of the I don't know, the
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: MAGA celebrities sort of hedging now on some of the
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: most important, the most important parts of the the America
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: First Agenda, and I would say this is in fact
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: one of them. Anyway, here's Michael Lindell caught thirty one plays.
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: Here's what I propose is I want to make conditional
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: non resident visus and this would be I'm going to
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: actually talk to President about this, but I want to
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: start with Minnesota. These conditional non resident visas, you would
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: have six months. Any anyone's here that is an illego
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: immigrant comes in, you get to you get you get
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: checked into the courthouse, you get bringing printed, you get
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: checked in to get this conditional non resident visa.
• 2:49
  Speaker 5: Now you have six months to do that.
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: You're not a citizen, but you don't have to leave
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: ever as long as a couple of things happen. One
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: is you can't commit a crime from a grossman be
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: convicted of a crime of a gross misdemeanor?
• 3:02
  Speaker 5: Are better?
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: Right now, we have thirteen hundred people in Minnesota that
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: are in our.
• 3:06
  Speaker 5: Prisons that are illegal. We pay one hundred and ten
• 3:08
  Speaker 5: million dollars a year to house them. They need to
• 3:10
  Speaker 5: be shipped out. Okay, now I think it is not
• 3:12
  Speaker 5: going to go. Okay, now, let me let me finish
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: this asthmam.
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: So, so you have this, and now at the end
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: of the six months of these people, if they want
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: to go get a driver's license, they can go get
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: a driver's lice. But just like when I used to
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: get dwi's there was conditions on my driver's license.
• 3:29
  Speaker 5: They will have to get a drive line.
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: But they will have to learn to speak English and
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: to read our signs here. Okay, that's going to be
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: one of the conditions. Okay, if you want to drive it. Now,
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: if you go to the line to be to be
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: a legal citizen, then you go to the black of
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: the line. But here's the thing. That line's going to
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: be short and there's going to be no cost. How
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: are we going to pay for that? Here's how we're
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: going to pay during the six months. The employers that
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: are paying cash. At the end of that six months,
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: if they aren't paying cash and they don't have that car,
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: these guys are committing sees. Employers, they need to go
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: to jail for ninety days. They'll be mandatory. And then
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: they're going to start paying taxes that.
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: We all pay.
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: And the economy is going to go up here because
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: these guys are everyone's going to be start paying taxes.
• 4:12
  Speaker 6: Well, the immigrant community, undocumented do pay taxes.
• 4:15
  Speaker 7: There's a way that started the ninety nineteen. There are
• 4:18
  Speaker 7: the way they do pay.
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: They're not all paying that these employers have here. It
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: solves a big problem these guys. Now the illegals can
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: come out of the shadows. They can live like you
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: and I. They don't have to hide out. They don't
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: have to worry about being attacked or they can't tell anybody,
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: or rape or whatever would happen to them. They don't
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: have to have that worry. These employers that are stealing
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: from all of us. Better look out under my watch,
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: because they better have the conditional resident non redsient car
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: for you to employ them, and you better be paying
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: your taxes. And then if you do this, here's what happens.
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: You now have all the money that you gain. It's
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: in the billions, not millions, in the billions you gain
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: from them paying taxes, all these employers. Okay, you take
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: that money and you use it to legalize people. You
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: bring it, you know, because right now a lot of
• 5:08
  Speaker 4: the people they can't afford five to fifteen thousand dollars
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: to go through the system to be legal.
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: All right, So just a gist of what Lindell went
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: on and on and on. Rondrewstone asked if Michael Lindell
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: was on drugs. Again, No, I don't believe he is.
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: But this is just weird that Lindel is coming out
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: because his policies are actually and this is what's crazy
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: about it, his policies are actually to the left of
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: Tim Walton when it comes to immigration, which is just bizarre.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: So anyway, ladies and gentlemen, people are really upset about this.
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: They're accusing Michael Lindel of betraying the movement. This again,
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: is not anything new for Lyndell because a few weeks ago,
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: I mean again, so it's not like he misspoke. He's
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: doubling down. But a few weeks ago he actually told
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: local reporters that anyone who's here, as in illegal, would
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: be able to get a conditional non resident visa. I mean,
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: we're talking about tens of millions of people here. This
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: is just just insane. Lindell says, quote, you're not a citizen,
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: but you don't have to leave ever, as long as
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: a couple of things happen. He said it would lead
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: to an increase in tax revenue. He says, you take
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: that money and you use it to legalize people. Now,
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: Lindell has a primary opponent. Her name is Lisa Dumouth.
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: She's been on the show a time or two, and
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: Dumouth is saying this is nuts. She says, I would
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: expect something like this from Amy Klobuchar and Tim Waaltz,
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: but I'm surprised to see it coming from a fellow
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: Republican candidate for governor. Now, Dumouth says she's different than
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: than Mike Lindell because she said, quote, I will work
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: with the federal government to deport criminal illegal immigrants instead
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: of giving them amnesty. I'm just curious here, ladies and telemen,
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: what do you think about Michael Lintel's What do you
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: think about Michael Lintel's idea? Mike Lindell wants to give
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: every single illegal alien in the nation six month amnesty.
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: I think that's a good idea. Nine oh one two
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: six zero five nine two six. That is our telephone number.
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: That's nine oh one two six zero five, nine two six.
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: We're going to be taking your calls on that. This
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: one is a head scratcher, no doubt, no doubt about it.
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: But anyway, Lindell's certainly spicing things up there in the
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: UH in the Minnesota gubernatorial race. By the way, there
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: is some reporting yesterday we were telling you about the
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: White House and Mark Wayne Mullen getting a little sideways
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: with each other, and according to multiple news agencies, which
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: means somebody from the White House is leaking this. Mark
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: Wayne Mullen, the new Homeland Security Secretary, facing growing tensions
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: with White House officials just month months into his role.
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: According to the reporting from Mediaite, Mullen has managed to
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: ruffle feathers and irk the administration multiple times in just
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: four months. The first first step was when he ordered
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: ICE agents to stop vehicles to stop the vehicle stops
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: policy after the shootings in Texas and Maine, and of
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: course President Trump pretty much stepped on. I mean, everybody
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: went bonker's crazy over that. President Trump stepped in and
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: quickly reversed that decision. It turns out that Mullen did
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: not get approval from the White House before making the decision.
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: Mullen also misspoke during a CNN interview when discussing a
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: Supreme Court ruling on protected status for immigrants from Haiti
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: and Syria, saying hundreds of thousands could apply for legal
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: status when they could not, and that actually upset more
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: people in the administration. So Tom Holman also apparently not
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: too happy with him as well. Now, the White House
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: released a statement saying that Trump, the President, an Mullen
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: are aligned on the immigration policy efforts. I mean, I
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: appreciate that, but ultimately Donald Trump is the one in charge,
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: not Mark Wayne Mullen, and Mullen needs to get in
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: step with the White House on this stuff. Another report
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: came out that Mullen has now told has now told
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: people within Homeland Security that they're dropping the numbers from
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: three thousand down to two thousand, the numbers that they
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: want to deport. And if that happens, folks were there's
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: no way we're we're going to be able to meet
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: any of the of the markers here on deporting millions
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: and millions of illegal So all of that to say,
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: there was some Fox News. There were some Fox News
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: polls that came out yesterday, and those polls look very
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: bad for the Republicans. I'm not saying I believe the polls.
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: I'm just sharing with you what the polling data said,
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: and it was not good for the Republicans. Voters want
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: major change amid economic and political discontent. Now, the Fox
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: News polling says that President Trump's job of approval rating
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: is near a record low. More Democrats are motivated to
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: vote Republicans joined Democrats and independence and raiding the economy Negatively,
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: four in ten voters want dramatic or revolutionary change. More
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: view the GOP is tied to elites than the Democrat Party.
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: So I want to step back from this for just
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: a quick second, and we're going to get to your
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: calls on all of this because I think it's all tied.
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: It it's all connected. I deeply appreciate all of the
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: efforts that the president has gone through to make Washington,
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: DC beautiful again. I believe our capital city it ought
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: to be. I mean, that's our front porch to the nation,
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: and it ought to be gleaming. But I do wonder
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: if maybe the optics here And I'm not saying that
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: they've done anything wrong, but I do wonder about the
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: optics that we're building the big beautiful ballrooms and we're
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: put We're spending a lot of money to clean up
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: Washington and to make it pristine, and yet a lot
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: of people are struggling to pay for gasoline. People are
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: putting groceries on their credit cards. They're not to be
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: able to pay their credit cards. And I'm wondering if
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: maybe there is now a disconnective people are somehow disconnecting,
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: which would lead me to believe these numbers that the
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: GOP sees, or that voters see the GOP as tied
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: to the elites a lot of lavishness and there's nothing
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: wrong with it. I'm just telling you this is my
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: observation from the polling data. But again going back to
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: the to the and this is all about the big
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: mo who's got the momentum going into the midterms. We've
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: been talking about those for a while. The Democrats are,
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: They're generating a lot of buzz. A lot of it's
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: bad buzz, a lot of it is communist buzz. But
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: they're generating buzz. Republicans not so much. And I wonder
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: if the base of the Republican Party is demoralized because
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: the administration is not delivering on their key promise. And
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: there were two big ones, number one securing the ballot
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: box and number two mass deportations. They have not delivered
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: on those two issues. My question to you is does
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: that impact whether or not you go and vote in
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: the midterm elections. Now, some of you will say, yeah,
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: I'm done, I am done, and I get it. I
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: don't blame you. I don't blame you for being done.
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: I don't think the Republicans have lived up to their
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: promises to the voters. Don't believe it for a minute.
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: But that doesn't matter. We've got to protect Donald Trump.
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: That's what this is really all about. I mean, that's
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: what the midterms is really all about. It's we cannot
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: punish the Republicans. If we want to, we can do
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: that down the road, but we can't do it this
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: election cycle because if we give the Democrats control of Congress,
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: it's going to be an impeacha palooza. Every single freaking
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: day President steps outside and says, what a beautiful day
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: it is, they'll impeach guy. I mean, that's it's gonna
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: it will be that bad. So we just can't let
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: that happen. But I'm curious to hear from you. I
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: mean this Fox News, Paul. I'm not saying it's accurate,
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: but I'm curious. Here, what do you think? Nine oh
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: one two six zero five nine two six our number,
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: that's nine o one two six zero five nine two six.
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: This is the Todd Stern Show.
• 14:23
  Speaker 8: Every generation must decide whether it will recognize deceit before
• 14:27
  Speaker 8: it becomes normal. This weekend, Salem News Channels America two
• 14:32
  Speaker 8: fifty film series presents The Fall of Deceit, a sobering
• 14:37
  Speaker 8: documentary on government overreach, faith under pressure, and the cost
• 14:41
  Speaker 8: of abandoning truth. Watch Saturday and Sunday at seven pm
• 14:45
  Speaker 8: Eastern on Salem News Channel.
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: All Right, welcome back, every about this is the Todd
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: Stearns Radio Show, and we have a lot of folks
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: wanting to weigh in here again Mike Lindell causing a
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: lot of controversy in maca world over his comments about immigration.
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: Let's go to the phone lines nine oh one two
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: six zero five nine two six. Let's say hello to
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: Carry in Memphis, Tennessee on cade wam I Carry? What's
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: on your mind today?
• 15:29
  Speaker 9: Yeah?
• 15:29
  Speaker 10: I was just saying, I don't see why the Republicans
• 15:33
  Speaker 10: aren't or Conservatives aren't motivated to get out and vote.
• 15:37
  Speaker 10: I mean, maybe they're not excited, but I look at
• 15:40
  Speaker 10: what Democrat socialists say to tell us they're going to do,
• 15:45
  Speaker 10: and I'm outright horrified at their ideas. So that's certainly
• 15:49
  Speaker 10: going to motivate me to get out and vote.
• 15:53
  Speaker 5: Well.
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: I think, look, the communism part of it is a
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: huge motivating factor, and I think what the Republicans need
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: to do is craft some very specific language and talking
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: points on why socialism communism is so bad. Because a
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: lot of people Carry, they're hearing from their pastors, they're
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: hearing from their school teachers that socialism is good. We've
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: got to be able to make sure we have crafted
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: a message that is going to strike reality into the
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: hearts of these young Americans.
• 16:29
  Speaker 10: Croug Frankly, I would consider Democrat Socialist of America. It
• 16:34
  Speaker 10: would be a domestic terrorist organization. That's what Trump should do.
• 16:38
  Speaker 10: We need to enforce the Communist Control Act of nineteen
• 16:42
  Speaker 10: fifty seven.
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: Honestly, carry I like that here. It's a solid idea
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: you have. I completely completely agree with you on that.
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: I mean, this is a clear and present danger to
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: the Republic, and we are staring right down the barrel of.
• 16:58
  Speaker 5: It, aren't we.
• 17:00

  Speaker 11: because everything I lifted this country for fifty two years,
• 18:25
  Speaker 11: I go up with it. I know what communist is,
• 18:29
  Speaker 11: and Democrat is one of them.
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: Quinn, we're coming up on a on a break here,
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: but I think you raise a great point. It took
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: you five years to become an American citizen. You did
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: it the right way, and it's unfair for all of
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: the people trying to come here the right way. Shame

  Speaker 12: no way, uh huh. I don't know what he's uh.
• 19:51
  Speaker 12: You know, you mentioned that he's probably not on drugs.
• 19:54
  Speaker 12: If you don't mind, as possible, I could disagree with
• 19:58
  Speaker 12: you on that. No, no, no concessions. And I believe
• 20:08
  Speaker 12: I was just happened to be listening to the other caller.
• 20:12
  Speaker 12: And if if someone wants to have a if they
• 20:18
  Speaker 12: want to know what communism is about, and they say
• 20:21
  Speaker 12: there's nothing wrong with it, live in a communist country,
• 20:26
  Speaker 12: and I'm expecting a phone call me or someone else
• 20:30
  Speaker 12: is expecting a phone call from you real quick. If
• 20:33
  Speaker 12: you think communism is a good way to live in
• 20:37
  Speaker 12: this country, that's what that's would be the name of
• 20:42
  Speaker 12: that tune.
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Glenn, Look, the previous caller actually came here from
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: a communist country, escaped the communist and it took her,
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: it took her five years to become a citizen. And
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: that woman, a legal immigrant now is an incredibly successful businesswoman,
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: uh there in the in the Houston area. So you
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: know again there, we're not anti immigrant. We just want
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: people to come here the right way and the legal way,
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: and that's what this is really all about.
• 21:13
  Speaker 12: Yes, do it the do it the right No concessions, no, sir, No, sir,
• 21:18
  Speaker 12: mister Lindell.
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, Glenn, thank thank you for that call,
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: and thank you for listening to us ow there at
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: Lafayette Again. Michael Lindell also just releasing an eighteen page
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: document outlining his immigration reform policy. He refers to illegals
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: as undocumented immigrants, and he says his plan is an
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: alternative to mass deportations. My question to you, ladies and gentlemen,
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: do you believe that we should go the route of
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: Michael Lindell or do you want mass mass deportations? Nine
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: oh one two six zero five nine two six. That's
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: nine oh one two six zero five nine to six. Well,
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: earlier this week we were all staggered and stunned to
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: hear testimony coming out of Capitol Hill from a sub
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: committee about the wokeness that had infested the Smithsonian Museums.
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: And I want to play just a smidge of that
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: before we bring on our next guest. This is Congressman
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: Brandon Gill from Texas confronting the director of the Smithsonian's
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: National Museum of American History about Mickey Mouse. Take a
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: listen to cut eighteen plays.
• 22:31
  Speaker 13: Is Mickey Mouse racist?
• 22:33
  Speaker 14: Mickey Mouse is not racist.
• 22:34
  Speaker 13: It's not racist. According to the Smithsonian Institution, one of
• 22:39
  Speaker 13: your exhibits referenced to Mickey Mouse is representing quote, vestiges
• 22:43
  Speaker 13: of long standing traditions of blackface minstrelsy.
• 22:48
  Speaker 5: Would you describe that as racist?
• 22:50
  Speaker 15: Now?
• 22:50
  Speaker 14: The historical trajectory of the origins of Mickey Mouse, tied directly.
• 22:58
  Speaker 13: Mickey Mouse's, is rooted in racism. Is that your testimony here?
• 23:01
  Speaker 13: It's rooted and menstrually minstressing. You don't think the blackface
• 23:05
  Speaker 13: minstrssy is racist, and.
• 23:07
  Speaker 14: It's certain on obvious racial overtones that have been well documented.
• 23:11
  Speaker 13: Is there that's problematic that Nickey Mouse also has those
• 23:15
  Speaker 13: racial overtones.
• 23:16
  Speaker 14: It's not for me to determine what's problematic. It's determined
• 23:19
  Speaker 14: to me what's accurate?
• 23:21
  Speaker 5: Is that right?
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: All right? That bit of testimony coming out of Capitol Hill,
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: and they're raising a lot of eyebrows. I want to
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: bring into the conversation. Michael Gonzalez, a senior fellow at
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: the Heritage Foundation, one of those who testified this week. Michael,
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: so good to have you with us, and we're just
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: so honored and thank you for the great work you're
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: doing there at Heritage Foundation.
• 23:46
  Speaker 16: On the contrary, Todd Well, thank you very much, first
• 23:49
  Speaker 16: and good afternoon. I'm the one who's delighted to be
• 23:52
  Speaker 16: here with you. Thanks for reaching out.
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: So you, first of all, I want to get your
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: reaction to this. For me, it's just incredibly goof to
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: think that Mickey Mouse is somehow, you know, racist, And
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: I'm just I think a lot of people were shocked
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: to hear that the Smithsonian was doing this kind of stuff.
• 24:10
  Speaker 7: Remember those old commercials, This is your brain on drugs.
• 24:14
  Speaker 16: This is what happens when you apply a racial prism
• 24:19
  Speaker 16: to everything. If I'm going to look at everything, everything
• 24:22
  Speaker 16: in life through the prism of the depressed and the
• 24:26
  Speaker 16: oppressors of races being one dominant to the other one marginalized. Uh,
• 24:32
  Speaker 16: you begin to hallucinate, and I think this is what
• 24:35
  Speaker 16: has happened at the Smithsonian.
• 24:37
  Speaker 7: This is what I happened. It was right next to me.
• 24:38
  Speaker 16: She was sitting next to me, and she was hallucinating
• 24:41
  Speaker 16: about Mickey Mouse and Mistressy and and and and the
• 24:44
  Speaker 16: racial overtones of this. I watched Mickey Mouse. I don't
• 24:49
  Speaker 16: want to give give away how old I am. Well,
• 24:51
  Speaker 16: let's just say a couple of decades. I never in
• 24:54
  Speaker 16: my life. This wouldn't have occurred to anybody or to
• 24:58
  Speaker 16: anybody listening here. This this is just it's kind of
• 25:02
  Speaker 16: not normal.
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: No, it's not normal. The idea that basic basic foundations
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: of polite society, things like being kind to each other,
• 25:15
  Speaker 3: being polite. I guess if you're at Chick fil a
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: saying my pleasure somehow that is now a form of
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: white supremacy or ideas like objectivity. It's almost I'm just
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: curious what's going on here, because it seems to me
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: there's an effort to really destroy Western civilization and specifically
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: American culture. Am I off base here?
• 25:38
  Speaker 7: No?
• 25:38
  Speaker 16: No, no, no, no, that's exactly what it is. It means
• 25:41
  Speaker 16: the end scenes have taken over the asylum. They have
• 25:43
  Speaker 16: put people in charge of the whole entire Smithsitian institution
• 25:47
  Speaker 16: who have hijacked this institution to teach Americans about how
• 25:53
  Speaker 16: structurally oppressive and systemically racist.
• 25:55
  Speaker 7: Their country is.
• 25:56
  Speaker 16: And when you believe that everything is structurally oppressive or
• 25:59
  Speaker 16: systemic racist, if you're a normal person, the logical conclusion
• 26:03
  Speaker 16: is you need to get rid of all the structures
• 26:05
  Speaker 16: and all the systems. System is just a Greek word
• 26:08
  Speaker 16: for the way everything works. And and this is how
• 26:11
  Speaker 16: you get This is how we get Mandani, This is
• 26:13
  Speaker 16: how we get Chevalier, This is how we get Katie
• 26:16
  Speaker 16: Wilson in Seattle, or the self confessed communists with the
• 26:20
  Speaker 16: Nazi tattoo. People voted for them because they have been
• 26:24
  Speaker 16: told for decades now that their country sucks.
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: I'm really intrigued by a paper you wrote and focus
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: is on the Heritage Foundation. We're going to post a
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: link to it on our website ton Stearns dot com.
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: You're right about how the Smithsonian lost its way. So
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: this is not something that that happened over overnight, isn't.
• 26:45
  Speaker 16: Well, I mean, it's it's been going on for for
• 26:48
  Speaker 16: some time. Uh, the the trainings that that you referenced
• 26:52
  Speaker 16: there with perfectionism and and and and and in good
• 26:56
  Speaker 16: manners being characteristics of white culture and what prevacy.
• 27:01
  Speaker 7: They have been going on since twenty sixteen.
• 27:04
  Speaker 16: But it's really the twenty nineteen when the rot begins,
• 27:09
  Speaker 16: when Lonnie Bunch the third is appointed the secretary of
• 27:13
  Speaker 16: the Simpsonian Institution, that is the head honcho of the
• 27:16
  Speaker 16: whole entire institution, and Antia Hardegg is appointed the head
• 27:20
  Speaker 16: of the History Museum, the National Museum of American History,
• 27:23
  Speaker 16: which is one of the flagships of the nineteen museums
• 27:27
  Speaker 16: that are existing right now. Don't forget this Smithsonian. It's
• 27:30
  Speaker 16: a huge complex. It's the world's largest museum complex.
• 27:34
  Speaker 7: This has been going on.
• 27:35
  Speaker 16: Obama's presidency kind of dovetails with this. The emergence of
• 27:40
  Speaker 16: a Black Lives Matter in twenty thirteen, the riots in
• 27:43
  Speaker 16: Ferguson in twenty fifteen, all of this begins to add
• 27:47
  Speaker 16: to the momentum where we are right now. And Americans
• 27:50
  Speaker 16: voted in twenty twenty four to fight this. Americans have
• 27:55
  Speaker 16: had it up to their back teeth with this stuff.
• 27:57
  Speaker 16: And I think I believe this drump is everything that
• 28:00
  Speaker 16: Trump does perfect. No, but this is very good. He
• 28:04
  Speaker 16: fights the culture war, and the culture war is very important.
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: What do you think the end game here?
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: Why?
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: Why does the Smithsonian want to portray Mickey Mouse as
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: as racist? Why do they want to provide radical sex
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: and gender storybooks to children? What's going on here? What's
• 28:21
  Speaker 3: the end game?
• 28:23
  Speaker 16: Well, in the in the in the in the case
• 28:25
  Speaker 16: of the they really depraved sex, sexual stuff that they
• 28:28
  Speaker 16: have shown an anthioartic glide.
• 28:31
  Speaker 7: She she testified two days.
• 28:32
  Speaker 16: I testified two days on her On the first day
• 28:35
  Speaker 16: she said this, this exhibit that has showed the sexual
• 28:37
  Speaker 16: depravity was non meant for children.
• 28:40
  Speaker 7: And then on the second day they showed a.
• 28:42
  Speaker 16: Video of her welcoming boys and girls to the exhibit.
• 28:46
  Speaker 7: In other words, she perjured herself.
• 28:48
  Speaker 16: And I could tell you my analysis of this is,
• 28:51
  Speaker 16: this is the same thing.
• 28:52
  Speaker 7: The Bolsheviks did, the same thing.
• 28:54
  Speaker 16: George Lukas, this this in the in the in the
• 28:56
  Speaker 16: Hungarian Soviet, they the the those young children to sexuality
• 29:02
  Speaker 16: to destroy the family from within, and destroying the family
• 29:05
  Speaker 16: from within is a way to destroy the nation.
• 29:07
  Speaker 7: They think the nation is really.
• 29:09
  Speaker 16: Really oppressive and bad, and they want to destroy it
• 29:11
  Speaker 16: and make it a new That is my analysis over
• 29:14
  Speaker 16: to Todd.
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: So you're there at the hearing, and but you know,
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: hold that thought before I get to the hearing itself.
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: You know here in Memphis, where you know I live.
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: Memphis is my hometown, and we broadcast our national show
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: from Memphis, and we have seen these I call them
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: culture jie hottists that are going in and tearing down
• 29:34
  Speaker 3: the statues. I know, in one particular park, they tore
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: down a statue of Jefferson Davis and they replaced that
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: statue with a giant hair pick that you know a
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: black American would use. It was an eight foot tall
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: hair pick with and the handle was a Black power fist.
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: And you step back and you wonder what is going
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: on here where we're comple deletely erasing our history. And Michael,
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: it just seems to me, we yeah, we got history.
• 30:05
  Speaker 3: Some of it's good, some of it's terrible. But we've
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: got to tell the history, right. I don't understand why
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: they want to whitewash everything.
• 30:12
  Speaker 16: You have to tell the whole history. You have to
• 30:16
  Speaker 16: tell the bad, the horror, the horror of slavery and
• 30:18
  Speaker 16: Jim Crow. But also the redemptive nature of liberating the
• 30:22
  Speaker 16: slaves and the redemptive nature of the civil rights movement.
• 30:26
  Speaker 16: You have to tell slavery and and the slaves sales
• 30:31
  Speaker 16: and the auctions, and you have to tell the fact
• 30:34
  Speaker 16: that the Union army marched to the battle Hymn of
• 30:37
  Speaker 16: the Republic singing the lines as he died to make
• 30:41
  Speaker 16: to make men holy, let us die to make men free.
• 30:45
  Speaker 7: If that doesn't give you chills, I don't know where.
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: Well, no, you're absolutely right. And for example, Nathan Bedford Forrest,
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: you know who. You hear all the horrible things he did,
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: but what you don't hear is the redemption, how he
• 30:58
  Speaker 3: became a follower of Jesus Christ, how he spent the
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: remainder of his years actually working with the black community
• 31:04
  Speaker 3: and teaching black children how to read and write. You
• 31:08
  Speaker 3: don't hear the redemptive side of the story. And I
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: think that's a very important You got to tell the
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: whole story.
• 31:14
  Speaker 7: Because they don't believe in redemption.
• 31:16
  Speaker 16: That's what is missing from this awful theory, which is
• 31:19
  Speaker 16: a bottom Marxist and and Marxism has no redemption, no forgiveness.
• 31:24
  Speaker 16: They curate everything to think this bad and they want
• 31:26
  Speaker 16: to show it to you and there's no way to
• 31:28
  Speaker 16: get out of it.
• 31:28
  Speaker 3: Okay, I want to ask you about the hearing, because
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: it was a great hearing. Republicans do a great job.
• 31:33
  Speaker 3: It's fascinating, riveting content. But the reality here is do
• 31:38
  Speaker 3: you did you come away from this thinking that something's
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: going to be done? Because right now the Smithsonian Museums
• 31:45
  Speaker 3: get a little over a billion dollars of our tax money,
• 31:48
  Speaker 3: and the people that we're asking those questions of those
• 31:51
  Speaker 3: Republican lawmakers, they actually have the power to defund these
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: museums if they keep spewing out all this whote nonsense.
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: So I'm just wondering, why do you think this was
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: just for theater or do you think we're going to
• 32:03
  Speaker 3: see something happen here?
• 32:05
  Speaker 16: One point one billion dollars exactly. There was a second
• 32:09
  Speaker 16: hearing on Wednesday at the at the Committee on House Administration.
• 32:13
  Speaker 16: That is a very key committee because that has oversight
• 32:16
  Speaker 16: over the over the Smithsonian. It's it's it's the authorizing committee.
• 32:21
  Speaker 16: And when the Smithsonian has candidates for the Board of Regions,
• 32:24
  Speaker 16: they have to go to this committee. So I'm actually
• 32:27
  Speaker 16: very positive, I'm optimistic that We're going to see Congress
• 32:31
  Speaker 16: get involved now.
• 32:33
  Speaker 7: Uh and and and get serious with the Board of Regions.
• 32:37
  Speaker 16: As I said in both days of hearing, and I'm
• 32:39
  Speaker 16: telling you right now again, things have to change radically. A.
• 32:43
  Speaker 7: We cannot build the Latino Museum.
• 32:45
  Speaker 16: That is a very big mistake, a very big mistake
• 32:48
  Speaker 16: that was authorized with the with the the ominious bill
• 32:52
  Speaker 16: in twenty twenty, in the middle of the night, in
• 32:54
  Speaker 16: a one trillion dollar bill, and that's going to become
• 32:56
  Speaker 16: another another incubator of anti American grievance, says, and we
• 33:01
  Speaker 16: have to fire the entire leadership of the hole. Smissoonian complex.
• 33:04
  Speaker 16: We have to fire a bunch. We have to fire
• 33:06
  Speaker 16: Antie Harding. It was hard city next to her and
• 33:09
  Speaker 16: having to say these.
• 33:10
  Speaker 7: Things, and yet they needed to be said. She is
• 33:14
  Speaker 7: not equipped to run this history museum. She's just not.
• 33:20
  Speaker 3: All I can say is you spoke truth to power
• 33:22
  Speaker 3: and I have great respect for that. And Michael, we're
• 33:25
  Speaker 3: going to have to leave it there. We love to
• 33:27
  Speaker 3: get you back sometime. I'm really fascinated by this subject.
• 33:31
  Speaker 3: I've written a couple of books about it. And we
• 33:33
  Speaker 3: have got we have got to put a stop to
• 33:36
  Speaker 3: this wokeness that's infecting the country. Michael Gonzales from the
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: Heritage Foundation, senior fellow, Michael, great work this week. Thank you,
• 33:45
  Speaker 3: Thank you, sir. All Right, we're going to take a
• 33:48
  Speaker 3: quick break. Nine oh one two six zero five nine
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: two six. This is the Todd Sterton Show. All right,
• 34:02
  Speaker 3: let's go to the phones real quick here Houston, Texas.
• 34:05
  Speaker 3: Don is listening to us on Patriots nine to twenty.
• 34:09
  Speaker 3: Once to wait on Michael Gonzales, Don, I gotta tell
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: you I'm impressed with this guy.
• 34:15
  Speaker 15: Well, yes, but I want to tell you something.
• 34:19
  Speaker 17: I want you to remember this.
• 34:21
  Speaker 15: The loss of history to a country is like the
• 34:25
  Speaker 15: loss of memory in a human. So if we destroy
• 34:31
  Speaker 15: our history, we're just going to be in a world
• 34:35
  Speaker 15: of hurts.
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: Well, we can't let that happen. And that's what that's
• 34:40
  Speaker 3: what is happening. And this goes all the way back
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: many I mean, if if Don, you and I are
• 34:45
  Speaker 3: old timers, we remember common Core back in the day,
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: which was actually not that long ago, but we remember
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: common Core where they tried to convince children that our
• 34:56
  Speaker 3: founding fathers were nothing more than domestic terrorists.
• 35:02
  Speaker 18: Well, I have a question.
• 35:03
  Speaker 17: I have to ask you. Now, I just got in
• 35:06
  Speaker 17: from the tail end of something. I hope I'm right.
• 35:09
  Speaker 17: Mike Lindale said he had another way of taking care
• 35:14
  Speaker 17: of mass deportations. The only other way I can think
• 35:18
  Speaker 17: of that is exterminate people.
• 35:21
  Speaker 15: And I don't think that.
• 35:23
  Speaker 3: No, no, don this is what. This is what Michae
• 35:26
  Speaker 3: Lindell said. And I'll let you. We're gonna we'll hang
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: up so you can hear exactly what he said. Mike
• 35:33
  Speaker 3: Lindell released a sixteen page or I'm sorry, an eighteen
• 35:37
  Speaker 3: page document outlining his immigration reform policy. He refers to
• 35:43
  Speaker 3: the illegals as undocumented immigrants, and he said the plan
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: would give every illegal in America without a criminal conviction
• 35:52
  Speaker 3: a six month window to obtain a work worker VISA
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: card and it's specifically designed for the existing what he
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: called undocumented population as a permanent non citizen work authorization.
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: In other words, he wants mass amnesty. That's that's what
• 36:11
  Speaker 3: Michae Lindell is now calling for, is mass amnesty. It's unbelievable,
• 36:17
  Speaker 3: but that's that's where Michael Lindela is. Now we're getting
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: word that Michael Lindell is his campaign now deleting some
• 36:24
  Speaker 3: of these posts he's made about immigration. What a mess,
• 36:31
  Speaker 3: What a mess it is in Minnesota?
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: All right?
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: Nine oh one two six zero five nine two six,
• 36:36
  Speaker 3: Got some, Got some good word that book. Sales pre
• 36:41

• 36:51
  Speaker 3: more about that in a little bit later on the show.
• 36:54

  Speaker 1: Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: common sense conservative commentary from Todd Stars.
• 38:00
  Speaker 5: This America.
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: All right, welcome everybody, our three of the Big or
• 38:08
  Speaker 3: hour two of the Big Show. I'm getting a little
• 38:11
  Speaker 3: ahead of myself today. Hello everybody. Good to have you
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: with us. So look, there was a fascinating interview yesterday
• 38:20
  Speaker 3: with Larry Cudlow and he was interviewing Senator James Langford,
• 38:26
  Speaker 3: the Republican out of Oklahoma, and Cudlow really cut to
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: the chase, which is what we do here on this program.
• 38:34
  Speaker 3: And there's there's just so much frustration right now with
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: the Senate and the lack of action on President Trump's agenda.
• 38:43
  Speaker 3: As a matter of fact, President Trump yesterday urged Americans
• 38:47
  Speaker 3: to call Senator John Thune's office. Now we have done
• 38:52
  Speaker 3: you a solid. All you have to do is go
• 38:54
  Speaker 3: to Todd Strange dot com right now and you'll find
• 38:57
  Speaker 3: Senator Thune's telephone number, and he encourage you to call
• 39:01
  Speaker 3: the senator's office and to tell the Senator that you
• 39:04
  Speaker 3: expect for them to pass the Save America Act. So
• 39:08
  Speaker 3: Todd Stearns dot com and we have all the information there,
• 39:11
  Speaker 3: phone numbers. You don't let to do any you don't
• 39:13
  Speaker 3: have to chant GPT, you don't have to Google. We
• 39:15
  Speaker 3: got it all for you right there. You're welcome, America.
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: So anyway, just a little while ago, Caroline Levitt corralling
• 39:23
  Speaker 3: the media scum scrum my, apologies the media scrum there
• 39:29
  Speaker 3: at the White House. Here's what she had to say,
• 39:31
  Speaker 3: cut thirty five.
• 39:33
  Speaker 19: Yeah, patients is running out.
• 39:35
  Speaker 9: Look.
• 39:35
  Speaker 20: The President spoke about this directly yesterday. His patients is
• 39:39
  Speaker 20: running out. He wants to see as much of the
• 39:41
  Speaker 20: Save America past as possible by the August recess. He
• 39:45
  Speaker 20: knows that's what the American people want to see past.
• 39:48
  Speaker 20: He was just traveling on the road yesterday spoke about this,
• 39:51
  Speaker 20: and there was a very loud applause from the people
• 39:54
  Speaker 20: in the audience, the everyday Americans, because voter ID is
• 39:57
  Speaker 20: common sense. They want proof of citizenship in our elections.
• 40:02
  Speaker 20: And the President feels very strongly about that. And I
• 40:04
  Speaker 20: would just add, you know, the American people over elected
• 40:08
  Speaker 20: overwhelmingly Republicans to lead not just this White House, but
• 40:12
  Speaker 20: also the House and the Senate. The House did its job.
• 40:15
  Speaker 20: The Senate needs to do its job too. I know
• 40:17
  Speaker 20: it's a brief briefing today, but you're going to hear
• 40:19
  Speaker 20: from the President.
• 40:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there, you go, Yeah, the President is going to
• 40:22
  Speaker 3: be speaking a little bit later on, but clearly the
• 40:25
  Speaker 3: President is frustrated here and rightfully so. So I want
• 40:30
  Speaker 3: to dip into this, and I'm not We're not going
• 40:32
  Speaker 3: to play the whole thing, but I want you to
• 40:33
  Speaker 3: hear Larry Cudlow's conversation with Senator James Langford, so you'll
• 40:38
  Speaker 3: get a pretty good idea of what the thinking is
• 40:41
  Speaker 3: in the Senate on this cut thirty three plays right now.
• 40:44
  Speaker 21: You the leadership in both houses are bundling everything, Sarah.
• 40:49
  Speaker 21: I say that with all due respect, and we are
• 40:52
  Speaker 21: personal friends. It's not but you're buggling everything. Nothing is
• 40:56
  Speaker 21: getting done, your messaging is nonexistent, You've lost your swag,
• 41:01
  Speaker 21: your swagger yours or whatever. The young people say, no
• 41:04
  Speaker 21: one knows what the heck you're doing, sir, They had
• 41:07
  Speaker 21: no idea.
• 41:08
  Speaker 19: Yeah, you're welcome.
• 41:09
  Speaker 22: And this is part of the challenge we've got with
• 41:11
  Speaker 22: all of our media friends out there that continue to
• 41:13
  Speaker 22: be able to beat up on Republicans and say Republicans
• 41:15
  Speaker 22: are all the problem. But apparently the socialist Democrats in
• 41:18
  Speaker 22: New York City, they seem to be perfect. Because most
• 41:21
  Speaker 22: conservative media right now is beating up on Republicans and
• 41:24
  Speaker 22: just ignoring the socialists who are running rampant all over
• 41:27
  Speaker 22: the country. So I look back on what happened with
• 41:29
  Speaker 22: the one big beautiful bill, the housing bill we just passed.
• 41:33
  Speaker 22: There's a lot of things that are going on that
• 41:35
  Speaker 22: were good.
• 41:35
  Speaker 5: And I understand nobody.
• 41:36
  Speaker 3: Every attacked mod dommy more than I have. For Heaven's sake,
• 41:39
  Speaker 3: that I wasn't.
• 41:40
  Speaker 5: I wouldn't say that just about you.
• 41:42
  Speaker 22: I was saying, this is the challenge that we're up against.
• 41:45
  Speaker 21: What is it that your policy is, Senator like my fro,
• 41:49
  Speaker 21: What is your power? Where the tax cuts? Where the
• 41:53
  Speaker 21: spending cuts? Where's the ways fraud and corruption reduction?
• 41:57
  Speaker 5: Where is all of that?
• 41:58
  Speaker 21: Where is the reconciliation bill? Where's the straight talk and
• 42:02
  Speaker 21: messaging for the midterm. Where's the growth messaging? Where's that
• 42:06
  Speaker 21: we're going to make it better for taxpayers and working
• 42:09
  Speaker 21: folks messaging. Come on, Senator Glad to be able.
• 42:13
  Speaker 22: To take it on. Larry Glad, and again, you and
• 42:15
  Speaker 22: I are friends. We've talked through all this stuff before.
• 42:17
  Speaker 22: So let's just start with last year in the bid
• 42:19
  Speaker 22: and what it's coming out right now on all the
• 42:21
  Speaker 22: tax policy obviously tax rates didn't go up. We dealt
• 42:24
  Speaker 22: with permanent expensing for all of our businesses in trying
• 42:27
  Speaker 22: to be able to make sure they're growing. They're growing.
• 42:29
  Speaker 22: The reason we're actually dealing with growth right now. You
• 42:32
  Speaker 22: are an expert on this, you know it full well,
• 42:34
  Speaker 22: is because the changes we made in the last year's
• 42:36
  Speaker 22: tax bill. We'd love to do a lot more on that,
• 42:39
  Speaker 22: and we will be able to do a lot more
• 42:41
  Speaker 22: on that, but we're still getting all of those things
• 42:43
  Speaker 22: implemented right now. The housing bill that we just passed
• 42:45
  Speaker 22: starts a whole different process of taking the federal regulations
• 42:49
  Speaker 22: trying to make housing cheaper for everybody. Right now, all
• 42:52
  Speaker 22: the different pieces on fraud are being implemented on snap
• 42:55
  Speaker 22: on the food staff fraud that's been happening around the
• 42:57
  Speaker 22: country that's being implemented right now. That is there billions
• 43:00
  Speaker 22: of dollars in savings. It's also putting work requirements on
• 43:04
  Speaker 22: the individuals and taking away the rights of people that
• 43:08
  Speaker 22: are illegally president of the United States to be able
• 43:09
  Speaker 22: to get these extra benefits. All those are things that
• 43:12
  Speaker 22: are happening right now because Republicans actually put those in places.
• 43:17
  Speaker 5: A lot of things that are going on.
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: Look at it right, Look at the one to be.
• 43:20
  Speaker 3: Beautiful bill is good.
• 43:21
  Speaker 5: Okay. Nobody fought for that harder than I did. But
• 43:24
  Speaker 5: that was a year ago. What have you done for
• 43:25
  Speaker 5: me lately?
• 43:26
  Speaker 3: What have you done this year?
• 43:27
  Speaker 5: Okay?
• 43:27
  Speaker 21: So that the point is, and let me ask the
• 43:29
  Speaker 21: housing bill when I think that, by the way, let's
• 43:32
  Speaker 21: take the Housing bill. You've done nothing on the tax side.
• 43:35
  Speaker 21: It's mostly spending. The regulatory stuff is local. You can't
• 43:39
  Speaker 21: control that. The Housing bill, frankly, was an Elizabeth Warren special, okay,
• 43:43
  Speaker 21: and I don't think it's going to have the one
• 43:46
  Speaker 21: single bit getting mortgage rates down and be more important
• 43:49
  Speaker 21: than anything in there. But you're not helping people. You're
• 43:52
  Speaker 21: not helping people with their mortgages. See if you sell
• 43:55
  Speaker 21: a home, If an empty in nester sells a home,
• 43:57
  Speaker 21: they have to pay a umongous capital gains tax on
• 44:00
  Speaker 21: the inflation was Joe Biden's inflation or COVID inflation, whatever,
• 44:06
  Speaker 21: They're not getting a break. You're not inflation indexing that,
• 44:09
  Speaker 21: you're not raising You didn't raise the allowance for capital gains.
• 44:13
  Speaker 21: It should have gone to a million or even two
• 44:16
  Speaker 21: million dollars for having safe to offset the inflation of
• 44:18
  Speaker 21: the last thirty years. This could have been done. When
• 44:21
  Speaker 21: you talk about you're saying, what food stamps and so forth,
• 44:24
  Speaker 21: what new legislation have you proposed that takes out all
• 44:29
  Speaker 21: the people that are fraulgently receiving Medicaid benefits, Medicare benefits,
• 44:33
  Speaker 21: hospice benefits, and yes, food stamp benefits. And why are
• 44:37
  Speaker 21: you spending more money on farmers that have already received
• 44:40
  Speaker 21: enormous amounts of money. I mean, after all this stuff,
• 44:44
  Speaker 21: where are you draining the swamp centered Langford? That's what
• 44:47
  Speaker 21: people are asking.
• 44:48
  Speaker 22: Let me walk through those if you'll give me a
• 44:50
  Speaker 22: chance to be able to talk to it.
• 44:51
  Speaker 5: A Medicaid.
• 44:51
  Speaker 22: We just made major changes on Medicaid and again individuals
• 44:55
  Speaker 22: that are not legally president off of that change. Made
• 44:57
  Speaker 22: major changes in Medicaid and actually ad being a work requirement,
• 45:01
  Speaker 22: just like there are on other benefits on that that
• 45:04
  Speaker 22: is actually bringing people off welfare and putting them to work.
• 45:07
  Speaker 22: On that, we're already seeing that in place. We're talking
• 45:09
  Speaker 22: about the food stamps and what we're doing on the
• 45:11
  Speaker 22: on the fraud piece on that right now. Doctor Oz
• 45:14
  Speaker 22: just met with him two weeks ago. They've just closed
• 45:16
  Speaker 22: down a ton of hospices that are popped up into
• 45:21
  Speaker 22: the LA area on it, which we've seen a ton
• 45:24
  Speaker 22: of fraud on the administration's taking the steps on that.
• 45:27
  Speaker 22: Congress is backing them up on that to make sure
• 45:29
  Speaker 22: that we're able to protect them. That's something the law
• 45:31
  Speaker 22: that they already had to be able to enforce. They're
• 45:33
  Speaker 22: actually enforcing that law on there. So let me some
• 45:36
  Speaker 22: good things that are happening.
• 45:37
  Speaker 5: We're good.
• 45:38
  Speaker 3: So look, it gives you a little insight into the
• 45:43
  Speaker 3: frustration that Larry Cutlow, who's representing conservatives, has and what
• 45:50
  Speaker 3: you're hearing coming from Senator James Langford. So look, I
• 45:53
  Speaker 3: wrote this last night and posted on X. Didn't realize
• 45:57
  Speaker 3: it was going to get a lot of attention, but
• 45:58
  Speaker 3: apparently it did. And I'm curious if you agree or
• 46:02
  Speaker 3: disagree with my assessment of what's going to happen in
• 46:06
  Speaker 3: the in the midterm elections. And a lot of this
• 46:08
  Speaker 3: is based on this Fox News poll that came out,
• 46:10
  Speaker 3: and the Fox News poll says it's going to be
• 46:13
  Speaker 3: a very bad midterm for Republicans. I mean, that's the
• 46:16
  Speaker 3: gist of it. Whether I no, I don't necessarily agree
• 46:22
  Speaker 3: with the with the way they came to their conclusions,
• 46:27
  Speaker 3: but there are some there are some potholes that you
• 46:31
  Speaker 3: got to watch out for, the Republicans got to watch
• 46:33
  Speaker 3: out for. So here are the six things that I
• 46:37
  Speaker 3: believe voters are going to judge Republicans on in the midterms,
• 46:41
  Speaker 3: and not necessarily in any particular order. This was sort
• 46:45
  Speaker 3: of a top of mind thing, and there may be
• 46:47
  Speaker 3: something on my list that well I didn't include, maybe
• 46:50
  Speaker 3: you think I should have included. But here's what I
• 46:52
  Speaker 3: think voters are going to judge Republicans on these issues.
• 46:56
  Speaker 3: Number one, did Congress secure the ballot box? Yes or no?
• 47:01
  Speaker 3: Number two? Did Congress codify President Trump's agenda?
• 47:06
  Speaker 5: Yes or no?
• 47:08
  Speaker 3: Were millions of illegals deported? The answer to that is no.
• 47:14
  Speaker 3: Have prices at the gas pump and the supermarket gone down? Now,
• 47:18
  Speaker 3: let me just say this, that is actually going to
• 47:21
  Speaker 3: be the number one question that voters are going to
• 47:23
  Speaker 3: be asking themselves. Have younger Americans been able to afford
• 47:31
  Speaker 3: a starter home? There's seven that was I threw that
• 47:35
  Speaker 3: one in there. Did Congress put America first? Were the
• 47:40
  Speaker 3: Doge cuts really implemented? I think those seven issues those
• 47:46
  Speaker 3: seven questions are going to frame whether or not voters
• 47:50
  Speaker 3: are going to go and vote in the midterm elections.
• 47:54
  Speaker 3: Let me say this. We're in the middle of early
• 47:57
  Speaker 3: voting here in the great state of Tennessee, and voter
• 48:00
  Speaker 3: turnout is sort of ho hum. But it's especially bad
• 48:04
  Speaker 3: on the Republican side. I want to give you an
• 48:06
  Speaker 3: example in Memphis, Tennessee. Is shocking numbers. In Memphis, Tennessee.
• 48:11
  Speaker 3: You've got over twice as many Democrats have gone out
• 48:14
  Speaker 3: to early vote than Republicans. And some of you will say, well, todd,
• 48:19
  Speaker 3: Republicans have jobs. Yeah, I get that, but the polls
• 48:23
  Speaker 3: are open to what seven o'clock at night or something
• 48:25
  Speaker 3: like that, go after work, and it tells me. Those
• 48:30
  Speaker 3: low numbers they tell us something. And that tells me that.
• 48:35
  Speaker 3: And some of you are going to say, well, it's hot,
• 48:37
  Speaker 3: people don't want to go out and vote because it's todd.
• 48:39
  Speaker 3: Or we're going on vacation, kids getting ready to go
• 48:42
  Speaker 3: back to school. Yeah, there are a lot of excuses,
• 48:44
  Speaker 3: but that's not it. That is not it. I think
• 48:48
  Speaker 3: it's these questions, and I think you do have a
• 48:52
  Speaker 3: demoralized base of Republican voters. Does that mean that they're
• 48:56
  Speaker 3: going to stay demoralized until I've ember No, not at all.
• 48:58
  Speaker 3: As a matter of fact, I would like to think
• 49:01
  Speaker 3: that the closer we get that people are going to
• 49:03
  Speaker 3: wake up and they're going to realize, holy cramp, we
• 49:05
  Speaker 3: are on the verge of a socialist takeover in the Congress.
• 49:08
  Speaker 3: We've got to do something about it. But the time
• 49:11
  Speaker 3: for that conversation is right now. We don't we don't
• 49:15
  Speaker 3: need to be waiting until the day before the election.
• 49:19
  Speaker 3: I had that cover. We need to be having that
• 49:20
  Speaker 3: conversation right now. Nine oh one two six zero five
• 49:25
  Speaker 3: nine two six. What do you think about My questions are?
• 49:28
  Speaker 3: Do you think those are the issues that will ultimately decide?
• 49:32
  Speaker 3: Because I do, And I'm telling you that I went
• 49:37
  Speaker 3: and I voted early. Did the early voting I always
• 49:42
  Speaker 3: kind of cause problems because I don't mean to. But
• 49:45
  Speaker 3: I'm the guy that asked for a paper ballot. And
• 49:49
  Speaker 3: the reason I asked for a paper ballot is there
• 49:51
  Speaker 3: is a great guarantee that nobody's going to manipulate my vote.
• 49:58
  Speaker 3: My and you know, again, in Tennessee, we I really
• 50:00
  Speaker 3: don't have that problem as much as other states. Sony,
• 50:03
  Speaker 3: I always asked for a paper ballot, but I went,
• 50:05
  Speaker 3: I voted early. There were there were some things that
• 50:10
  Speaker 3: I disagree with. I would say that the Republicans are
• 50:14
  Speaker 3: pretty much answered. I think the answer is no to
• 50:18
  Speaker 3: all of these questions. And yet I still went and
• 50:19
  Speaker 3: I voted early. You say, Tom, why did you do that?
• 50:22
  Speaker 3: Because we've got to protect President Trump. We just have
• 50:25
  Speaker 3: to at all costs. I mean, that's what for me,
• 50:28
  Speaker 3: that's what the midterms is about. We can deal with
• 50:31
  Speaker 3: these yahoos down the road. By the way, good on
• 50:34
  Speaker 3: a Congressman Yakham out of Indiana for really pushing this
• 50:42
  Speaker 3: the legislation that's going to ban the insider trading stuff.
• 50:47
  Speaker 3: Rudy Yackham from Indiana voting to ban congressional stock trading
• 50:52
  Speaker 3: and passive voter ID law to secure the elections, which
• 50:56
  Speaker 3: is what the House did yesterday. Senate, it's your turn.
• 50:59
  Speaker 3: But anyway on you Congressman Yakam, All right, nine oh
• 51:03
  Speaker 3: one two six zero five nine two six are telephone number.
• 51:06
  Speaker 3: That's nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: By the way, if that becomes actually the law of
• 51:12
  Speaker 3: the land, you can expect a lot of mass Congressional
• 51:16
  Speaker 3: resignations and retirements coming up. You watch, you just watch.

  Speaker 3: We'll be right back. You know, Parker, I know you're
• 52:11
  Speaker 3: a big sports guy. You ever thought about a career
• 52:13
  Speaker 3: on Broadway?
• 52:15
  Speaker 19: It has never come to mind.
• 52:17
  Speaker 3: So you haven't really thought about maybe, you know, giving
• 52:20
  Speaker 3: up sports and becoming a song and dance man.
• 52:23
  Speaker 19: Correct, I've never thought about it really.
• 52:25
  Speaker 3: All right, Well, the reason I ask is that there's
• 52:29
  Speaker 3: a there's a story circulating out there. Uh, they're getting
• 52:33
  Speaker 3: ready to hold auditions for Hamilton the musical great music. Well, yeah,
• 52:39
  Speaker 3: I have you said you have you seen it?
• 52:42
  Speaker 19: I have, I've seen it once.
• 52:43
  Speaker 3: So it's I would not call it a musical as
• 52:46
  Speaker 3: much as like, I don't know, a a hip hopical thing,
• 52:51
  Speaker 3: a hip hopical or music. Yeah, music, yeah, I mean,
• 52:55
  Speaker 3: you know, it's like, I don't know. When you think Broadway,
• 52:57
  Speaker 3: you're like.
• 52:58
  Speaker 2: Oh and the you know, or the whatever.
• 53:04
  Speaker 3: That's not what I'm you know, when you go to Hamilton,
• 53:07
  Speaker 3: it's like yo, yo, George Washington.
• 53:12
  Speaker 19: Not your average Broadway.
• 53:14
  Speaker 3: No'm I'm sorry, I'm white. I can't wrap my apologies.
• 53:18
  Speaker 3: So anyway, they're holding all that to say, they're holding
• 53:20
  Speaker 3: an open audition. That's why I thought about you, uh, Parker,
• 53:24
  Speaker 3: because you know, I mean you, I don't know. It's
• 53:26
  Speaker 3: if you could wrap, don't but no, just think about it.
• 53:32
  Speaker 19: We'll think about it.
• 53:34
  Speaker 3: Hamilton holding a virtual open You know who would do
• 53:37
  Speaker 3: it is Aiden, who's our other intern who's out doing
• 53:41
  Speaker 3: summer stock up in Maine. Aiden would be per well,
• 53:45
  Speaker 3: he would not be even though he is one of
• 53:47
  Speaker 3: the top actors young actors in America. It turns out
• 53:52
  Speaker 3: he's white. So yes, according to according to the libs
• 53:59
  Speaker 3: of TikTok. A New York City casting agency is now
• 54:03
  Speaker 3: promoting an open call audition, but they're only asking for
• 54:07
  Speaker 3: BIPOC performers. White people need not apply. And BIPOC, by
• 54:14
  Speaker 3: the way, that's that's a new thing. It stands for
• 54:17
  Speaker 3: what does it stand for? Hold on, it's not I
• 54:21
  Speaker 3: want to say it's a bipock. It's not black, it's
• 54:25
  Speaker 3: black Indigenous people of color, I think, or bisexual people.
• 54:31
  Speaker 3: Oh black indigenous think. Oh I was it was bisexual.
• 54:35
  Speaker 3: I apologies. So they could be head of Rows theoretically.
• 54:41
  Speaker 3: So anyway, white people, you're not allowed to You're not
• 54:44
  Speaker 3: allowed to audition for Hamilton the musical. They're looking for
• 54:49
  Speaker 3: actors and dancers and singers for They're Broadway show and
• 54:53
  Speaker 3: their tour and they have all the information there. So
• 54:57
  Speaker 3: if you're a if you're a white song and dance
• 55:00
  Speaker 3: guy or gal, you need not apply. So Hamilton is
• 55:04
  Speaker 3: basically what the story of well the founding of the
• 55:07
  Speaker 3: country right to you. Yes, so, and they do have
• 55:12
  Speaker 3: white characters, but it's like King George, So the bad
• 55:15
  Speaker 3: guys are the whites.
• 55:17
  Speaker 23: Yeah, it's a the story doesn't make a lot of
• 55:19
  Speaker 23: sense when it's the founding of the country, but it's
• 55:22
  Speaker 23: hip hop.
• 55:23
  Speaker 19: It doesn't really fit.
• 55:25
  Speaker 3: I went to see Hamilton on Broadway, twelve hundred dollars
• 55:30
  Speaker 3: for the ticket, and I left like ten minutes into
• 55:34
  Speaker 3: the show. I couldn't understand anybody. I'm like, there were
• 55:37
  Speaker 3: that we needed subtitles.
• 55:40
  Speaker 19: That would make a lot of difference.
• 55:42
  Speaker 3: So I did a little bit of research here in
• 55:45
  Speaker 3: the last break and I thought to myself, Oh wow,
• 55:48
  Speaker 3: so white people are not allowed to be in a
• 55:49
  Speaker 3: musical about the founding of the nation. So I just
• 55:52
  Speaker 3: thought to myself, how many of our founding fathers were
• 55:55
  Speaker 3: actually Hankys? And it turned out all of them. All
• 56:02
  Speaker 3: of them came from European ancestry and would be considered
• 56:05
  Speaker 3: white by modern classifications, all of them. So are you
• 56:09
  Speaker 3: telling me we can't have at least I don't two
• 56:13
  Speaker 3: white people in Hambleton? All right, Welcome back, everybody. This
• 56:26
  Speaker 3: is the Tom Stearns Radio Show. Great to have you
• 56:30
  Speaker 3: with us today, and this segment brought to you by
• 56:32
  Speaker 3: our friends at Movement Mortgage. What an incredible group of folks.
• 56:38
  Speaker 3: You know a lot of people they hear about reverse
• 56:41
  Speaker 3: mortgages and you need to understand something. Reverse mortgages did
• 56:46
  Speaker 3: not fail retirees. Bad information did and years ago these
• 56:50
  Speaker 3: loans earned a bad reputation, but regulations change protections improved,
• 56:55
  Speaker 3: and today many Americans are actually using reverse mortgages responsibly
• 56:59
  Speaker 3: as part of a very smart retirement strategy. I want
• 57:04
  Speaker 3: you to write down this telephone number five eight zero reverse.
• 57:08
  Speaker 3: That's five eight zero reverse, or go to Movement dot
• 57:12
  Speaker 3: com slash starns to book your free consultation and receive
• 57:18
  Speaker 3: a customized retirement mortgage plan five to eight zero reverse.
• 57:24
  Speaker 3: All right, I want to go right away to our
• 57:26
  Speaker 3: Patriot Mobile newsmaker line and welcome the reverse mortgage director
• 57:30
  Speaker 3: at Movement Mortgage, Harlan Akala. Harlan, good to have you
• 57:34
  Speaker 3: back with us.
• 57:35
  Speaker 24: Hey, good to be Here's Todd. I hope all is
• 57:37
  Speaker 24: well in your walk.
• 57:38
  Speaker 3: Well, things are going very well. And thank you for asking.
• 57:42
  Speaker 3: I know that a lot of folks are very intrigued.
• 57:46
  Speaker 3: We got a lot of reaction from our interview. We
• 57:49
  Speaker 3: did our conversation we had last week, and folks wanted
• 57:52
  Speaker 3: to circle back and understand the three ways that you
• 57:56
  Speaker 3: can actually use a reverse mortgage.
• 58:00
  Speaker 24: Yeah, most people think that a reverse mortgage is best
• 58:02
  Speaker 24: used for just getting a monthly income, and that's actually
• 58:05
  Speaker 24: the least most common way that a reverse mortgage is use.
• 58:09
  Speaker 24: Nothing wrong with that, but that's not usually the first scenario.
• 58:14
  Speaker 24: But that is one way you have your house paid
• 58:16
  Speaker 24: off and you can pull money out monthly or just
• 58:19
  Speaker 24: a certain amount as you need it as life continues
• 58:22
  Speaker 24: throughout retirement. The second scenario is to refinance. That's what
• 58:27
  Speaker 24: I did. Refinanced a regular mortgage that required payments into
• 58:32
  Speaker 24: a reverse mortgage that has optional payments. So every month
• 58:36
  Speaker 24: I decide whether or not I want to make a
• 58:37
  Speaker 24: payment or not. And usually there's better places for that
• 58:41
  Speaker 24: money to go, better places for it to be invested, whatever.
• 58:44
  Speaker 24: But if I want to pay off my mortgage, I
• 58:46
  Speaker 24: always can. The third way, which very few people even
• 58:49
  Speaker 24: know is possible, is a lot of people my age
• 58:52
  Speaker 24: want to move because they're in an older house, a
• 58:54
  Speaker 24: house with stairs, a house that's far away from their
• 58:56
  Speaker 24: kids or their grandkids, a house that's not in the
• 58:58
  Speaker 24: beach or in the mountains. Whatever. They want to sell
• 59:00
  Speaker 24: their old house and buy their dream house, the house
• 59:05
  Speaker 24: that they really want to live in for retirement, and
• 59:07
  Speaker 24: most people are afraid to do that. Because they got
• 59:09
  Speaker 24: their other house paid off, or they got a two
• 59:12
  Speaker 24: point seventy five interest rate or something like that, and
• 59:15
  Speaker 24: they just feel stuck. They're not going to move, and
• 59:17
  Speaker 24: they don't realize that you can use a reverse mortgage
• 59:19
  Speaker 24: to buy a house, even if it's more expensive and
• 59:21
  Speaker 24: never make a pay.
• 59:22
  Speaker 3: Ye know, I'm curious about this. I've never heard about this.
• 59:24
  Speaker 3: So you're saying that you can actually buy a house
• 59:27
  Speaker 3: with a reverse mortgage.
• 59:30
  Speaker 24: Yes, So what happens is we just have a client
• 59:33
  Speaker 24: right now in Indiana moving by their kids in South Carolina.
• 59:38
  Speaker 24: They're selling their house in Indiana. It's paid off. They
• 59:42
  Speaker 24: just got three hundred thousand dollars for selling their house.
• 59:45
  Speaker 24: But they were disappointed because they knew the area that
• 59:47
  Speaker 24: they were moving to around Charlotte, in a really nice
• 59:49
  Speaker 24: neighborhood is more expensive and the nicest pretty much the
• 59:54
  Speaker 24: main house. The cheapest house they were going to find
• 59:57
  Speaker 24: that was close to their kids was five hundred thousand.
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 24: So what they did is they took the three hundred
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 24: thousand dollars that they got from their house in Indiana.
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 24: We came in with two hundred thousand dollars, and that
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 24: two hundred thousand dollars dollars does not have to be
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 24: paid back, So they just bought a house with no
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 24: payment going forward forever for as long as they live.
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 24: And they've got the value of a five hundred thousand
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 24: dollars house increasing, and they're close to their kids and
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 24: their grandkids.
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 3: I'm curious as who the typical person would be that
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 3: should ask about this particular option.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 24: You know, anybody that people like me that were three
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 24: hours away from their grandkids, that was in a house
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 24: that was aging, a house that needed work, a big
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 24: yard that needed to be taken care of, not a
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 24: house that was ideal for Brendan and I to live in.
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 24: There are millions of people like my wife and I
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 24: that were in the wrong house or are currently in
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 24: the wrong house, somebody that for the next It might
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 24: be fine right now. I mean, I can still take
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 24: steps two at a time, Todd, But come a time
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 24: when I'm in a wheelchair. I moved to a house
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 24: that is all in one level. The office, the kitchen,
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 24: the bedroom, everything is all in one level. I would
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 24: not have to move if I ended up in a wheelchair,
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 24: which I hope never happens, but if it does, I
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 24: could still stay in my house. There's all kinds of
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 24: people that are healthy now that should be thinking what's
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 24: really going to work for the next twenty thirty years
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 24: of retirement, And there are millions of people that are
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 24: not asking that question, is not looking into it, and
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 24: they should. Where do you really want to live for
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 24: the fourth quarter of life?
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 3: So what's the main advantage? And again people are weighing
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 3: pros and cons here, what's the main advantage of buying
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 3: a house with a reverse mortgage?
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 24: Well, there's really three main advantages. The first thing is,
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 24: if you're buying a more expensive house like these people
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 24: were from Indiana, you don't have to tap into your
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 24: investment account to pull that money out. That's really a
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 24: big deal because now you're not decreasing the amount of
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 24: money that you can enjoy during retirement. But what if
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 24: you're sizing. What if you're going from an eight hundred
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 24: thousand dollars house down to a four hundred thousand dollars house,
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 24: Well that's even better because now you get extra money
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 24: left over to take care of investments, to take care
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 24: of the other money that is out there. But probably
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 24: the single biggest thing that people get excited about when
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 24: they're buying a new house, is you're starting over your
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 24: acquisition debt, and acquisition debt interest is deductible for the
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 24: rest of your life for as long as you have
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 24: the loan, and that is huge. We just save declient
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 24: about a half a million dollars in interest because they
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 24: bought a new house, and over the next eighteen years,
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 24: we figured that they're going to save a half a
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 24: million dollars in actual taxes because of the interest that
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 24: they can deduct on a reverse mortgage, which goes up
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 24: every month.
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 3: So let's talk about let's say you do this and
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 3: you've got kids. You want to be able to leave
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 3: them something at the end of the day. Any danger
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 3: here for the kids, Well.
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 24: There's no danger at all. The kids can never be
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 24: required to pay your debts in a reverse mortgage. So
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 24: I I live a really long time and I owe
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 24: two hundred thousand dollars more in my house than much
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 24: worth when I die at ninety five or something. The
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 24: kids don't have to worry about anything. In fact, they
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 24: can even buy the house that I reduce value. And
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 24: if my house goes way up in value, as newer
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 24: houses do when you move, the kids get the difference
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 24: because a nicer house, a newer house, is going to
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 24: appreciate more than an older house that needs more work.
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 24: So the kids usually come out ahead of the game.
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 24: And the money that I'm not spending on mortgage payments,
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 24: I can spend on them and my grandkids as my
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 24: clients and I do because now our payment is zero.
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 24: So really the kids benefit even more so while I'm alive,
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 24: because I can help them more and give with a
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 24: warm hand instead of a cold hand.
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 3: Harlan is also the author of it. There's a great book.
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 3: Home Equity and reverse Mortgage is the Cinderella of the
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 3: baby boomer retirement. Now the number five eight zero reverse
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 3: five eight zero reverse, Harlan, if one of our listeners
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 3: is calling that number, they're they've already got it on
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 3: the speed dial. What's going to happen when they talk
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 3: to somebody there at Movement Mortgage?
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 24: Well, you know, everything comes first in education. I just
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 24: talked to a client this morning and I said, now
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 24: is not the best time to do a reverse mortgage.
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 24: You should wait at least two or three years. We're
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 24: going to be consultive about it. It's not a selling line,
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 24: it's an education line and we build a specific, very
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 24: simple scenario with pretty little charts and graphs as to
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 24: how this is going to affect their retirement. That's the
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 24: most important thing. And along with that information, that customized
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 24: plan that we give them, we also give them a
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 24: copy of my book No Obligation, just to totally understand
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 24: how this fits in. If it doesn't fit in, we're
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 24: going to be the first ones to tell them not
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 24: to do it. So not everybody should do this, but
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 24: everybody who's over sixty two should check this out because
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 24: they just don't know what they don't know, and it
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 24: might be of huge help. And if it doesn't work,
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 24: at least they know that it doesn't fit into their
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 24: plan all right. BYB zero Reverse is the telephone number.
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 24: Movement dot com slash starns is the website. Movement dot
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 24: com slash starns. Let's talk about the website. Some of
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 24: the things that our listeners might see when they go
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 24: to the website. There's videos, there's different links of what
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 24: they can look at, and then obviously a place to
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 24: fill out their name and address that we can contact
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 24: them back and let them know we'll have an idea
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 24: of what their house is worth give them some of
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 24: the information from our software, but actually talking to one
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 24: of our retirement mortgage professionals is going to be enlightening.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 24: Virtually everyone that I've seen go through this, they say, hey, this,
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 24: we just learned a whole bunch of stuff we didn't
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 24: know and we didn't realize how valuable this information is
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 24: in all of our planning as to when we're going
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 24: to draw sese security, when we're going to do roth conversions, whatever.
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 24: So they'll enjoy it whether or not they get a
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 24: reverse mortgage. They're going to learn a lot of stuff.
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 3: And the book is well, Home Equity Reverse Mortgage, the
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 3: Cinderella of the baby boomer retirement. They'll get a copy
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 3: of that.
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 24: They certainly will. And I wrote it to be fun.
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 24: I mean there's articles, what about the step of the chapters?
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 24: What about the stepsisters, drug sex and reverse mortgages. It's
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 24: it's it's fun stuff, all rated PG, so nothing to
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 24: worry about. But it's some fun stuff and it's not
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 24: it's not boring because I'm not smart enough to write
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 24: a real technical book. So I just wrote a fine one.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 3: I love that we should have led with the with
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 3: the drug sex and the what was it the drug
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 3: sex and drug sex and reverse mortgage, reverse mortgages. I
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 3: thought it was stepsisters and I'm like, wait a second,
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 3: that can get but.
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 7: That's another one.
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 24: We talk about the stepsisters too, but we won't mix
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 24: the two.
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, don't do that. All right, folks, again, I want

  Speaker 3: Now, let's go to the phones real quick. German Shepherd
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 3: in North Carolina. German Shepherd, what's on your mind?
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 18: Yes, sir, I just wanted to make a point a statement.
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 18: The first revisionalist in history with Satan in the garden
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 18: of Eden to deceive e. And we see the.
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 25: Same pattern in the Socialist Party, the Communist Party, Black
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 25: Lives Better and TIFA and the Democrat Party as they
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 25: try to revise history and Hamilton producers.
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 18: I think that's just the insidious motivation behind what they're doing,
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 18: is trying to revise history to accommodate their selfish and
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 18: evil weights.
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 3: No doubt about that. That's just weird. It's just weird.
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 3: German Shepherd. So anyway, I'm old school. Give me Oklahoma,
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 3: give me my fair lady. Yeah, hello, darling.
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 18: You're playing the national anthem.
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 3: Also, well, you're welcome a German Shepherd, and thank you
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 3: for listening. And by the way, those of you listening
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 3: to us on our stream every day at noon, we
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 3: played the national anthem, just our way of getting folks
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 3: in the patriotic sperien here on the Todd Stearns Radio Show.
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 3: All Right, I got to take a quick break here.
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 3: This is the Tod Sterns Show. All right, Welcome back
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 3: to everybody. This is the Tod Stearns Radio Show. Parker.
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 3: I was I was a browsing social media and I
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 3: came across one of the old school Alex Trebek Jeopardy shows.
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 3: You know, a lot of families were either Jeopardy, Jeopardy
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 3: or Wheel of Fortune, you know, I mean, it's the
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 3: smart families were all about Jeopardy, and then the rest
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 3: of us were hanging out on Wheel of Fortune. We
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 3: were a Wheel of Fortune family. Yeah, my mom's side
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 3: of the family, they're more you know, Jeopardy, and they
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 3: let you know it. You know, it's they're proud of it.
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 3: It is, you know, it is what it is. What
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 3: can you say? So anyway, Alex Trebek, I just think
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 3: the whole show went south when he passed, and it's
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 3: it's really sad what it is now. But there was
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 3: a funny little thing that happened when one of the
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 3: categories was football and let's let's play cut thirty.
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 19: Six football two hundred your choice.
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 9: Do or don't name this play in which the quarterback
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 9: runs the ball and can choose to pitch it to
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 9: another back. It's an option play Ryan football four hundred.
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 9: I can tell you guys are a big football fan.
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 9: Tom Landry perfected the shotgun formation with this team.
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 3: I know the answer to that, Dallas cowboy Boys.
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 9: Do you think we should go to commercial?
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 4: Six hundred?
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 2: Okay?
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 9: By signaling for one of these, a returner can reel
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 9: in a kick without fear of getting tackled. Fair catch.
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 9: Two clues left, Ryan eight hundred. These penalties are simultaneous
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 9: violations by the offense and defense that cancel each other out,
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 9: and they are called offsetting penalties. Let's look at the
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 9: thousand dollars clue just for the fun of it.
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 6: Jimmy as Minneapolis as US Bank Stadium prepares to host
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 6: Super Bowl fifty two, I'm looking at the ring of
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 6: honor with names from this defensive line that took the
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 6: Vikings to four Super Bowls.
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 9: If you guys ring in and get this one.
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 2: I will die.
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 9: Who are the purple people eaters?
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 2: We're going to take a break.
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 3: I have to talk to Oh wow, Parker, how would
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 3: you have done.
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 19: Four for five?
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 19: Oh got every single one, but the last.
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 3: I would have gotten the last one. Yeah, I would
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 3: donage a little bit before my time. This is interesting.
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 3: Speaking of football, there there's been some talk about the
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 3: SEC actually leaving the n C Double A.
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 2: Have you heard about this?
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 19: I have, and it just disappoints me.
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 3: It's so anyway the headline Yahoo Sports, could the SEC
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 3: actually leave the NC Double A?
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 26: Now?
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 3: SEC Commissioner Greg Sanki said the threat is real, but
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 3: I think they're more just drawing a line in the
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 3: sand with the n C Double A and saying, hey,
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 3: look we've got we've got a problem here.
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 19: It's such a big mess.
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 23: I think with the way that college sports is changing
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 23: so much now, you never know what's gonna happen every day.
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 23: I think the threat that they're trying to make is real,
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 23: But I will say I don't think they would leave
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 23: by themselves. I think they would need the Big ten
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 23: to probably go with them to make it worth it.
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 3: You know, Kirby Smart over at Georgia, he's just as
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 3: outraged as everybody else is over all of this. He's
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 3: ready to bolt.
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 19: Yeah.
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 23: I saw that he was in agreeance with Sankie I
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 23: s S media Day and that he was aware of
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 23: that threat, and he's been talking about it for a
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 23: while now.
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 3: Well, the big problem, and it keeps going back to
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 3: player eligibility and the nil name, image, likeness. That's that's
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 3: the big thing, and it's it has ruined college football.
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 23: It really has taken the pureness out of the game
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 23: entirely because they the NCAA can't make up their mind
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 23: of what rule they want.
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 19: To stick with, and then you.
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 23: Get all these courts involve trying to make changes and
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 23: then they're just stuck in the same spot.
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 3: But you know, I got to thinking about that, and
• 1:13:29
  Speaker 3: you know, you don't want to you don't want to
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 3: blow up the whole NCAA. But if they did, when
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 3: you think about it, the SEC is sort of its
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 3: own like world. So I think we would be fine
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 3: even if, you know, if we did decide to pull out.
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 23: I think there's a way it works, especially from just
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 23: a pure college football perspective, because especially in this area,
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 23: like it's such a big deal, like call SEC football
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 23: is everything. But I think they would need a little
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 23: bit of help, but they definitely have the talent and
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 23: the media to be able to do it.
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 3: Well, I think. So, I mean, we've got and that's
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 3: what you're gonna need. You're gonna need the TV contracts,
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 3: and you know SEC has those, and you've got probably
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 3: I would say the SEC is the most loyal fan
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 3: base in all of college sports.
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 19: Completely agree.
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 23: And ESPN has that big TV contract, as you mentioned,
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 23: backing them.
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 3: Up maybe big ten, uh right up there. Yeah so,
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 3: but again, if that happens, if the SEC were to
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 3: pull out, I still think there's got to be a
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 3: place for the University of Memphis in the SEC world.
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 3: It makes no sense why they're not.
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 23: They've got to find a way to find a way
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 23: to the SEC acc Big twelve.
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 3: Something got to got to I like SEC though. I
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 3: think that'd be a lot of fun. All Right, we
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 3: got to take a break here, of folks. Nine oh
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 3: one two six zero five nine two six. We'll be
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 3: right back.
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 1: Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 1: America's Conservative blowtorch.
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 5: This American.
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 2: To start.
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 3: Well, yeah, hello, everybody, welcome to our three of the
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 3: Big Show. Great to have you with us today. So
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 3: we're working through something here and so bear with us.
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 3: But I wanted to circle back to an announcement we
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 3: made earlier this week and just see if we can't
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 3: simplify all of this for you. So here's the deal.
• 1:15:43
  Speaker 3: We are. We are a grassroots talk radio program. We
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 3: do not have the power of Fox News behind us
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 3: or Cumulus or iHeart. We are a really a mom
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 3: and pop, a grassroots radio program. So we really lie
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 3: on you guys to help spread the word about things
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 3: that are happening on the show, which you guys have
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 3: done a terrific job over the years. And also when
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 3: it comes to whenever I have a brand new book
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 3: coming out, helping to promote the book and we need
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 3: your help to do that. Pre orders especially, they've been
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 3: going very very well, and one of the things we
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 3: wanted to do to sort of sweeten the pie, if
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 3: you will, is to offer a special thing for those
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 3: of you that pre order The Golden Age. And here's
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 3: what we're going to do. We're going to if you
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 3: pre order between now in August eleventh, if you pre
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 3: order a copy Barnes and Noble, Amazon Books, a million
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 3: doesn't matter where as long as you pre order a copy,
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 3: we're going to send you an unpublished chapter of the book.
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 3: There was a lot of content that we were not
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 3: able to get into the book only because it's already
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 3: it was already so long. It's like, oh god, the
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 3: book's kind of heavy too, Parker. It's one of those
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 3: things where you could use it as a weapon, and
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 3: I think it would stop a bullet, which is good
• 1:17:07
  Speaker 3: in Memphis.
• 1:17:07
  Speaker 19: It's got thick pages, yes.
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 3: So we're it's three hundred and I think three hundred
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 3: and fifteen pages. So anyway, it's a it's a big book,
• 1:17:16
  Speaker 3: and so we weren't able to get a lot of
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 3: the chapters in there. So we've got some extra chapters.
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 3: We're gonna send you one of the unpublished chapters as
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 3: a way of saying thank you for taking the time
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 3: to pre order the book. Now if you want that chapter.
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 3: We're doing this on the honor system. We don't we're
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 3: not gonna ask for your receipt and all of that stuff,
• 1:17:35
  Speaker 3: you know, Parker. Helen was asking about it. Jus, Well,
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 3: people got to show us the receipt. I need to
• 1:17:40

• 1:17:44
  Speaker 23: of the books.

  Speaker 3: you know how the Yankees are. It's no she's from Virginia.
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna be in such big trouble later after the show.
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 3: So anyway, we're gonna make it super. So we're puting
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 3: you on the trust system. The We're just going to
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 3: take you at your word. So as soon as you

• 1:18:52
  Speaker 3: you have to do. Don't call because you know we

• 1:19:15
  Speaker 3: This is something that has never happened in conservative politics.
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 3: None of them, a grassroots person, a grassroots author, has
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 3: never gotten on the New York Times bestseller list. You
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 3: can do that. All it takes is we need I
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 3: think ten thousand sales in the opening week, ten thousand
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 3: sales in the first week, and we will make the
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 3: New York Times bestseller list. Only you are going to
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 3: be able to make that possible. So we just want
• 1:19:47
  Speaker 3: to encourage all of you to get a copy, maybe
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 3: get two copies, and help us make that New York
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 3: Times bestseller list. It's sort of a badge of honor
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 3: in the publishing world. We've already made the Wall Street
• 1:19:59
  Speaker 3: Journal Best List, the Publisher's Weekly Bestsellers List, and USA
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 3: Today Bestseller List my previous book, so we're really hoping
• 1:20:07
  Speaker 3: this one does well as as well. All right, So
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 3: enough of that again, Just get those get those calls.
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 3: In as quickly as possible so we can turn around
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 3: and send you that special chapter of the book. I
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 3: want to play some audio here from Senator Ted Cruz,
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 3: and Senator Cruz is predicting that he knows who the
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 3: twenty twenty eight presidential nominee for the Democrats is going
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 3: to be. This is a fascinator. You're gonna be interested
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 3: to hear this cut number thirty four place.
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 27: I think she'll run for president. I don't think she
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 27: will run for Senate. But I'm going to make a
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 27: prediction for you, Sean. My prediction is comrade Mondami will
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 27: be the next Democrats senator from New York, that Mandami
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 27: will replace Schumer. I think Mondami is the single most
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 27: powerful Democrat in the country. And I got to say,
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 27: by the way, there are some Republicans that are celebrating
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 27: this is great. Our opponents are crazy.
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 24: That's going to help us.
• 1:21:11
  Speaker 27: I want to say, for the record, I'm not celebrating.
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 27: I think this is bad for the country. I think
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 27: this is unhealthy. I want to see two normal parties
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 27: that are not filled with crazy people who can actually
• 1:21:24
  Speaker 27: do something reasonable and who.
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 24: Actually love the country.
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 27: Okay, if a Democrat likes some higher taxes and higher regulations.
• 1:21:31
  Speaker 27: I don't like that, But could we start with the
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 27: premise that you love America.
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 3: That's asking a lot for the Democrats these days. I
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 3: mean it really is. That is asking a whole lot. Now,
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 3: the Senator predicting that AOC is going to launch a
• 1:21:50
  Speaker 3: twenty twenty eight presidential bid. I believe that to be
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 3: the case. And that's one of the reasons why I
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 3: think AOC is making such a big stink out of
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 3: taking it to the Southern States. So when I saw
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 3: her and hear me all this, I'm not a big
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 3: AOC fan at all, but she is a very charismatic individual.
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 3: Do not underestimate her. Do not underestimate her. She came
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 3: across in Memphis and she was very well received. She
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 3: was not unhinged. I mean, she had the fake accent.
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 3: You know, again, we're not gonna live We're not gonna
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 3: leave Tennessee behind, We're not gonna leave Alabama behind, We're
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 3: not gonna leave Mississippi behind. She left Arkansas behind, but
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 3: everybody else she's not gonna leave behind. But again, I mean,
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 3: that's that's typical. You know, Kamala Harris did the same
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 3: thing Hillary with her hot sauce in the They all
• 1:22:50
  Speaker 3: do it. But I'm just saying that she came across
• 1:22:54
  Speaker 3: as very well put together, very photogenic. Oh god, why
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 3: I just remember this story. Years ago. I was interviewing
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 3: Matt Gates before he went a little squirrely and back
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 3: before he didn't have the the you know, his his
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 3: forehead moved back in those days. And I asked him
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 3: about AOC and he said, yeah, I date her on air.
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 3: We are on air. Yeah, I dated like okay, But anyway,
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 3: she's very photogenic. I mean, she looks good on camera.
• 1:23:23
  Speaker 3: She comes across well. Pay very close attention to AOC.
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 3: That's all I'm saying. Now, Zoo, run ma'm dommy. Yet
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 3: that is an interesting I never really thought about that.
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 3: The question is will there be enough you know again,
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 3: voters in Long Island as well as upstate New York
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 3: to push back against ma'm Dommi if he were to
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 3: run for the US Senate. I mean, that's the broad
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 3: the bigger question there. But I think Ted Cruz is
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 3: onto something here. AOC is progressive light compared to Mam Dommi,
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 3: who's a full blown communist. That's the guy you got
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 3: to look at for Fortunately, he can't run for president
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 3: because he wasn't born here. Of course, some would say
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 3: that hasn't stopped others from No, I'm not going to
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 3: go there.
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 2: I can't go.
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 3: Dam't go there today. All right, let's go to the
• 1:24:17
  Speaker 3: phone lines nine oh one two six zero five nine
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 3: two six might in Memphis, Tennessee, Mike, what's on your mind?
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 28: Hey, greetings toide. You ask about issues earlier that people
• 1:24:28
  Speaker 28: are concerned about, and I've got about five that are
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 28: not what you've not covered them. But people that I
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 28: know that are working at the polls daily, and I
• 1:24:36
  Speaker 28: call them and say, what are people interested in? Because
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 28: I'm thinking of something different than what I'm hearing in
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 28: the radio. The things that they're talking about, in no
• 1:24:45
  Speaker 28: particular order. Number one, the surveillance grid posing as a
• 1:24:48
  Speaker 28: data center that's sucking up our water.
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 10: And our power.
• 1:24:52
  Speaker 28: Number two, the prosecution of a dude for touching flaking
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 28: pool line or paint when nobody that's touching children's being
• 1:24:59
  Speaker 28: pro The Epstein list has not gone away. They need
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 28: to be dealt with. They need to be prosecuted. Okay.
• 1:25:06
  Speaker 28: Number three, Congress being ultimately controlled by foreign interest globalist
• 1:25:12
  Speaker 28: corporations and the merger. It's okay to trade technology, but
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 28: when you merge our government with another government, that's treason.
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 28: That's what I was at the VFW. I listened to
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 28: people a week ago Tuesday. This is their concern, okay.
• 1:25:28
  Speaker 28: And last, we're in the war right now, just like Iraq,
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 28: where we had tens of thousands of our sons and
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 28: daughters fight and die, but not one Israeli got there
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 28: or fought or died. And today not one Israeli is
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 28: going into Iraq. Are Iran. We're there, our family members
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 28: and the president who I don't know why, I will
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 28: give him the benefit of the doubt, but because he
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 28: has classified the number of deaths, there's a lot of
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 28: people that are concerned. There's a lot more and they
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 28: just don't want us to know about it, and they
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 28: just need to shut it down, bring it home. We
• 1:26:07
  Speaker 28: don't need to be over there is the majority. Now,
• 1:26:10
  Speaker 28: these are people that normally vote Republican.
• 1:26:13
  Speaker 3: How many people you talk to? How many people?
• 1:26:16
  Speaker 28: I've got three people that are working daily, three.
• 1:26:19
  Speaker 3: So you've talked to three people. And that's that's what
• 1:26:23
  Speaker 3: most of America is concerned about. But your list.
• 1:26:27
  Speaker 28: No, it's just a polster in Memphis. They're going to
• 1:26:29
  Speaker 28: various posts like, UH, Carterville and Bartlett, Arlington, Millington, those
• 1:26:35
  Speaker 28: those polls.
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 3: Okay, well we'll see you know again. We'll open it
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 3: up to folks and UH and see if they share
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 3: share your concerns. I will say that I've heard from
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 3: thousands of folks across the Mid South, and that's how
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 3: I formulated my list of you know what people are
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 3: talking about out there. Mike, thank you for the call.
• 1:26:58
  Speaker 2: So is that it?
• 1:26:59
  Speaker 3: Ladies and jelm are you? Are you compelled to go
• 1:27:02
  Speaker 3: and vote because of data centers in the Epstein list.
• 1:27:05
  Speaker 3: I'll give him the last one. I think a lot
• 1:27:07
  Speaker 3: of people are really upset and frustrated over whatever is
• 1:27:12
  Speaker 3: going on in Iran, and that reminds me where is
• 1:27:14
  Speaker 3: hold On? I've got that, Yes, President Trump. This from
• 1:27:20
  Speaker 3: the from the news engine of Fox News Channel. The
• 1:27:28
  Speaker 3: US completes another round of strikes on Iran as oil
• 1:27:31
  Speaker 3: prices continue to rise. The President now says he is
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 3: considering a massive attack on Iran, even bigger than Operation
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 3: Epic Fury. This is coming from the reporting of Fox
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 3: and Axios. The President has not made a decision on
• 1:27:50
  Speaker 3: this and did not say when the attack may happen
• 1:27:53
  Speaker 3: if he orders it. The President telling Axios in an interview,
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 3: I am considering a massive attack, bigger than ever before.
• 1:28:02
  Speaker 3: I am close to making a decision. We are all
• 1:28:04
  Speaker 3: set for you know what, mister President's do it, mister President,
• 1:28:07
  Speaker 3: just do it. What are we waiting on?
• 1:28:10
  Speaker 24: What?
• 1:28:11
  Speaker 3: Seriously, what are we waiting on? If we're gonna win
• 1:28:15
  Speaker 3: the war, let's win the war. And if not, let's
• 1:28:17
  Speaker 3: get out, pack up and get out. So what are
• 1:28:22
  Speaker 3: we waiting on?
• 1:28:23
  Speaker 5: Here? All right?
• 1:28:23
  Speaker 3: We got to take a break. Nine O one two
• 1:28:25
  Speaker 3: six zero five nine two six. Again that number, nine
• 1:28:28
  Speaker 3: O one two six zero five nine two six. This
• 1:28:30
  Speaker 3: is the Todd Sterns Show. All right, Parker, you know
• 1:28:43
  Speaker 3: President Trump yesterday in Atlanta, Marietta, Georgia, home with the
• 1:28:47
  Speaker 3: Big Chicken. By the way, anybody know what the big
• 1:28:51
  Speaker 3: Chicken stands for? You know what is the big chicken?

• 1:29:18
  Speaker 3: to call Senator John Thune's office and ask, respectfully, to
• 1:29:25

• 1:33:46
  Speaker 26: Hey, Todd, long time So here's we are. And I'm
• 1:33:49
  Speaker 26: one that always rants with you. I'm going your poets
• 1:33:53
  Speaker 26: like ten times in the last year. I don't think
• 1:33:55
  Speaker 26: he ever me. And the reason I'm letting you know
• 1:33:59
  Speaker 26: is you always tell people to call their senators and
• 1:34:01
  Speaker 26: things like that and call their representatives. This is the
• 1:34:06
  Speaker 26: ongoing issue. Nobody will answer their phones. Nobody is there
• 1:34:11
  Speaker 26: to answer their phones. We've tried John Kennedy and Louisiana
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 26: tried as local offices is Washington d C Offices. We
• 1:34:20
  Speaker 26: don't even bother with Warnock or Enseng. We're doing the polls.
• 1:34:25
  Speaker 26: We're working with the top here in Georgia and we're
• 1:34:28
  Speaker 26: going to be poll people for the Senate. And we're
• 1:34:32
  Speaker 26: also doing the door.
• 1:34:33
  Speaker 3: Knocking my apollomy.
• 1:34:37
  Speaker 26: Yeah, we're on the Trump train. We were on the
• 1:34:39
  Speaker 26: Trump train at all time, a cask telling all them,
• 1:34:42
  Speaker 26: oh yeah, and just to let the America know they
• 1:34:47
  Speaker 26: need to stand up because you got a voicemail, you
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 26: got another voicemail. Then when you email them, they go
• 1:34:55
  Speaker 26: into spam. So where is our tax dollars really going?
• 1:34:58
  Speaker 26: Nobody will answer their phone. Nobody cos nobody.
• 1:35:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, No, it's a great point. You raise and that's
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 3: that angers me that because now they don't want to
• 1:35:10
  Speaker 3: talk to you. You know, they've got the higher staff.
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 3: And here's the deal. If you're just going to send
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 3: everybody to voicemail, why do you need an office staff?
• 1:35:19
  Speaker 7: That's right.
• 1:35:21
  Speaker 26: So I'm I'm fed up. I'm I'm fed up with.
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 24: All of it.
• 1:35:26
  Speaker 26: I can't. I'm trying to get all off, warnock out
• 1:35:28
  Speaker 26: of here. Wait there, they need to go. And if
• 1:35:32
  Speaker 26: the Republicans don't start with their start, and it's gonna
• 1:35:36
  Speaker 26: it's just gonna end up.
• 1:35:37
  Speaker 18: The rat race.
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 3: No, you're right, Angie. I appreciate you calling it, but
• 1:35:41
  Speaker 3: I have to tell you, Angie, Yeah, you made my
• 1:35:44
  Speaker 3: heart skip just to beat because you said you were
• 1:35:46
  Speaker 3: working the polls and I didn't know what you were
• 1:35:48
  Speaker 3: talking about right away. So you got to make sure
• 1:35:50
  Speaker 3: you qualify that for political polls.
• 1:35:54
  Speaker 26: They want to see a sixteen year old woman on
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 26: a pole ball means let them pay it.

• 1:36:30
  Speaker 3: gonna read the headline here from the Christianpost dot com
• 1:36:34
  Speaker 3: Pastors and pundits torch Fox News host vulgar attack on
• 1:36:39
  Speaker 3: Christian journalist, pack of creepy weirdos. Now, this is this
• 1:36:46
  Speaker 3: is the story as it's been unfolding, and it seems
• 1:36:50
  Speaker 3: to be getting bigger and it's sort of like, I
• 1:36:52
  Speaker 3: don't know, snowballing. So Guy Benson, who's one of the
• 1:36:56
  Speaker 3: one of the hosts, one of the the people on
• 1:36:59
  Speaker 3: Fox News, and he and his husband have a brand
• 1:37:04
  Speaker 3: new baby girl, and you know, the media goes nuts
• 1:37:10
  Speaker 3: over all of this, and they're just especially the conservative media,
• 1:37:15
  Speaker 3: and they're so excited. Now Fox News, you have to understand,
• 1:37:18
  Speaker 3: has fully embraced, you know, transgenderism. They've got to what
• 1:37:21
  Speaker 3: the Jenner formerly known as Bruce on their network, and
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 3: they honor pronouns the whole nine yards. If you've got
• 1:37:29
  Speaker 3: a Foxnews dot com and you read any of their stories,
• 1:37:32
  Speaker 3: they honor the preferred pronouns all of that. So anyway,
• 1:37:38
  Speaker 3: people were upset about this, and they came after Guy
• 1:37:42
  Speaker 3: Benson for purchasing a baby. Daily Wire reporter I'm reading
• 1:37:49
  Speaker 3: from the Christian Post story here. Daily Wire reporter and
• 1:37:52
  Speaker 3: commentator Megan Basham drew the ire of Fox News and
• 1:37:57
  Speaker 3: host Kennedy. Kennedy's the one on She used to be
• 1:38:01
  Speaker 3: one of the MTV folks. She and I are the
• 1:38:03
  Speaker 3: same age. Kennedy went after Basham because Basham weighed in
• 1:38:10
  Speaker 3: on a viral New York Post story regarding Guy Benson
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 3: announcing that he and his husband had welcomed a baby girl.
• 1:38:18
  Speaker 3: There was no mention of the child's mother. Basham writing this,
• 1:38:23
  Speaker 3: Benson is an incisive pundom, but there's nothing conservative about
• 1:38:27
  Speaker 3: deliberately creating motherless children. She went on to say, I
• 1:38:32
  Speaker 3: pray Benson and those like him on the right would
• 1:38:35
  Speaker 3: consider what they are telling the world about how unnecessary
• 1:38:39
  Speaker 3: they believe mothers, or if we're talking about two women,
• 1:38:43
  Speaker 3: fathers are to the needs of children, because that is
• 1:38:48
  Speaker 3: what they're declaring when they create these children through the
• 1:38:50
  Speaker 3: surrogacy process, that mothers and fathers serve no specific purpose.
• 1:38:57
  Speaker 3: Kennedy replied, to this on act, saying, bless your heart, Megan.
• 1:39:01
  Speaker 3: While you're at it, go replace the batteries and your vibrator.
• 1:39:06
  Speaker 3: Oh my well. Kennedy's post prompted a torrent of backlash
• 1:39:11
  Speaker 3: from Christians and other conservatives. Federalist Senior editor John Daniel
• 1:39:18
  Speaker 3: Davidson said, what a pack of creepy weirdos they have
• 1:39:21
  Speaker 3: over at Fox News who talks like this and who
• 1:39:25
  Speaker 3: honestly thinks it's normal and healthy for a gay couple
• 1:39:27
  Speaker 3: to purchase children through surrogacy? Creeps, that's who. Anyone who
• 1:39:32
  Speaker 3: isn't morally insane knows that surrogacy should be illegal. Evangelist
• 1:39:38
  Speaker 3: Justin Peter said, when people have no intelligent rebuttal, they
• 1:39:42
  Speaker 3: turned to low browed, gut her language. Jenna Ellis right,
• 1:39:51
  Speaker 3: just scrolling through here, I here we go. Conservative Christian
• 1:39:54
  Speaker 3: attorney Jenna Ellis denounced Kennedy's post as a disgusting comment
• 1:39:59
  Speaker 3: that totally missed is the point, like quote most of
• 1:40:02
  Speaker 3: your volglar commentary. She went on to say that Kennedy
• 1:40:08
  Speaker 3: officiated guy's gay wedding, and that's why she's defending him,
• 1:40:14
  Speaker 3: because she's defending herself too. It's her it's all in
• 1:40:19
  Speaker 3: on the degeneracy. It's her brand. This is the direct
• 1:40:23
  Speaker 3: quote from Jenna Ellis. Then you've got Blaze columnist and
• 1:40:28
  Speaker 3: podcasters weighing in daily wire people when everybody's really fired
• 1:40:32
  Speaker 3: up about all of this, and I people have been
• 1:40:36
  Speaker 3: asking my opinion, and I want to say this about
• 1:40:41
  Speaker 3: Fox News and this this needs to be said. It's
• 1:40:46
  Speaker 3: not the Trinity Broadcasting Network. It's not day Star, it's
• 1:40:50
  Speaker 3: not it's not a religious television network. It's a It's
• 1:40:55
  Speaker 3: a conservative news channel. That's what Fox is. They're not
• 1:41:00
  Speaker 3: a church. And it seems as though a lot of
• 1:41:04
  Speaker 3: people on social media are somehow shocked to discover that
• 1:41:08
  Speaker 3: conservative cable news only embraces a superficial view of Christianity.
• 1:41:13
  Speaker 3: So what Fox News is doing is something what I
• 1:41:16
  Speaker 3: call Jesus light. So, for example, these are the stories
• 1:41:21
  Speaker 3: that just really jazz them up.
• 1:41:23
  Speaker 2: Oh wait, wait, wait, what is it?
• 1:41:25
  Speaker 3: Earlier in the show who Wasn't? Who was it that
• 1:41:28
  Speaker 3: said what do the young people say? They get jazzed up? Okay,
• 1:41:33
  Speaker 3: I think they say that back in like the fifties,
• 1:41:38
  Speaker 3: But anyway, what really gets them going are not stories
• 1:41:42
  Speaker 3: about theology. It's stuff like Christian celebrity news or contemporary
• 1:41:48
  Speaker 3: Christian artist or faith trends. But when it comes to
• 1:41:55
  Speaker 3: like the social issues, the biblical values, what the Bible
• 1:41:58
  Speaker 3: says about X, Y or z, they will run away
• 1:42:01
  Speaker 3: from that. And that's the dirty little secret that Republican
• 1:42:05
  Speaker 3: politicos and conservative media they loathe the beliefs of evangelical Christians.
• 1:42:11
  Speaker 5: They do.
• 1:42:12
  Speaker 3: I've seen this play out time and time again. Even
• 1:42:14
  Speaker 3: when I was at Fox News, they actually launched the
• 1:42:19
  Speaker 3: whole you know. I mean, if you want to look
• 1:42:20
  Speaker 3: at the Pride Month celebrations, you'll to see how they
• 1:42:23
  Speaker 3: celebrate at Fox News headquarters. I mean, they pull out
• 1:42:26
  Speaker 3: all the stops. Years ago, when I was still there,
• 1:42:30
  Speaker 3: they had a transgender They had a dude come out
• 1:42:34
  Speaker 3: and announced that he was a woman, and one of
• 1:42:36
  Speaker 3: the ladies on staff actually made a big to do
• 1:42:39
  Speaker 3: about indicte inviting him into personally inviting him into the
• 1:42:42
  Speaker 3: ladies room. And you're sitting there and you're watching all this,
• 1:42:46
  Speaker 3: and you're like, I had to laugh, because a lot
• 1:42:49
  Speaker 3: of people think that Fox News is like the great
• 1:42:52
  Speaker 3: defender of the faith, when in fact they're not, because
• 1:42:55
  Speaker 3: they're not supposed to be. That's not their role. That's
• 1:42:59
  Speaker 3: not their job. However, on the other side of the
• 1:43:03
  Speaker 3: equation here, Fox has been using their platform to advance
• 1:43:09
  Speaker 3: their own version of theology, and that seems to be okay.
• 1:43:15
  Speaker 3: I mean, the New York Post did the story, posted
• 1:43:18
  Speaker 3: the photos owned by the same corporation that owns Fox News,
• 1:43:24
  Speaker 3: and that's their right to do. They have every right
• 1:43:26
  Speaker 3: to do that. They have every right to promote those things.
• 1:43:29
  Speaker 3: But my question is do the viewers not have a
• 1:43:33
  Speaker 3: right at that point to step in and say, hey,
• 1:43:35
  Speaker 3: wait a second, I don't agree with this. Apparently they don't,
• 1:43:40
  Speaker 3: according to Kennedy. According apparently they don't. They just Fox
• 1:43:45
  Speaker 3: just want you to shut up and watch their news channel.
• 1:43:49
  Speaker 3: And by the way, that's the same kind of treatment.
• 1:43:52
  Speaker 3: For example, very rarely will you see pro life stories
• 1:43:55
  Speaker 3: on Fox News, and there's a reason for that because
• 1:43:58
  Speaker 3: they believe that's already a settled in shoot, so they
• 1:44:01
  Speaker 3: will not cover it. And that's the mentality when it
• 1:44:03
  Speaker 3: comes to the culture war issues. Once the Supreme Court
• 1:44:06
  Speaker 3: ruled on marriage, that was it.
• 1:44:09
  Speaker 5: It was over.
• 1:44:10
  Speaker 3: There was no more debate, which is why a lot
• 1:44:13
  Speaker 3: of the religious liberty organizations have a hard time getting
• 1:44:16
  Speaker 3: booked on Fox News channel shows nowadays, but then you
• 1:44:20
  Speaker 3: have this. You'll have the host get up there and
• 1:44:23
  Speaker 3: the hosts are like, I don't know what the Maybe
• 1:44:26
  Speaker 3: you've seen this, but it's it's not natural when they
• 1:44:29
  Speaker 3: talk about their faith. They'll be in the middle of
• 1:44:31
  Speaker 3: his story and they'll just casually mention, oh, yes, I
• 1:44:35
  Speaker 3: love Jesus, and it's like, well, that's great, but what
• 1:44:38
  Speaker 3: does that have to do with what you're talking about?
• 1:44:40
  Speaker 3: And it's almost like the old Trinity Broadcasting Network. You
• 1:44:44
  Speaker 3: guys remember that. So it's just all very strange. So
• 1:44:48
  Speaker 3: what do you I mean, It's just strange bedfellows if
• 1:44:50
  Speaker 3: you will. No, there's no pun there, but I would
• 1:44:55
  Speaker 3: probably need to say pardon me, but it is. It's
• 1:44:57
  Speaker 3: strange bedfellows the whole thing. So anyway, look, Fox and
• 1:45:05
  Speaker 3: all the other guys, they use the evangelicals for ratings
• 1:45:08
  Speaker 3: and the Republicans use them for votes. As a matter
• 1:45:12
  Speaker 3: of fact, when the RNC was meeting back in twenty
• 1:45:16
  Speaker 3: oh Jesus or twenty twenty four, they were meeting and
• 1:45:20
  Speaker 3: they watered down the party platform a lot of these
• 1:45:23
  Speaker 3: big culture war issues, and I'm wanted these guys that
• 1:45:28
  Speaker 3: for me. I have my personal beliefs, and I also
• 1:45:33
  Speaker 3: understand and I have my political beliefs, and my religious
• 1:45:38
  Speaker 3: beliefs flavor and influence everything I believe politically, by and large,
• 1:45:46
  Speaker 3: I mean, by and large, I would say that I
• 1:45:49
  Speaker 3: agree with most of the party platform. But it troubled
• 1:45:53
  Speaker 3: me when the Republicans went out of their way not
• 1:45:55
  Speaker 3: only to water down the language on pro life, but
• 1:45:58
  Speaker 3: to threaten conservative that were in the room when it
• 1:46:02
  Speaker 3: was being done. So am I surprised by all the
• 1:46:06
  Speaker 3: hull I guess I am surprised by all the hullabaloo
• 1:46:10
  Speaker 3: that this story is creating, because this always seemed to
• 1:46:14
  Speaker 3: me the bigger problem in America. And hear me on this,
• 1:46:17
  Speaker 3: The bigger problem in America is actually heterosexual marriages that
• 1:46:24
  Speaker 3: end up in divorce. That, to me, is the bigger
• 1:46:27
  Speaker 3: problem in America. You get that figured out, well, you
• 1:46:31
  Speaker 3: may end up solving a lot of problems in this country.
• 1:46:34
  Speaker 3: But nobody wants to talk about that on the Christian
• 1:46:39
  Speaker 3: the Christian side of the ledger, you know why, because
• 1:46:42
  Speaker 3: that hits too close for home for a lot of
• 1:46:45
  Speaker 3: Christians who have been divorced once, twice, three times. They're
• 1:46:53
  Speaker 3: more than happy to go after you know, gay marriage
• 1:46:56
  Speaker 3: or whatever, but don't be talking about the the heterosex
• 1:47:00
  Speaker 3: marriages at all end in divorce that apparently is not permitted.
• 1:47:05
  Speaker 3: So anyway, it is what it is. But again, is
• 1:47:10
  Speaker 3: Fox News trying to advance a narrative. You better darn
• 1:47:13
  Speaker 3: well believe they are. All right, gotta take a break.
• 1:47:15
  Speaker 3: Nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
• 1:47:18
  Speaker 3: That's nine oh one two six zero five, nine two six.
• 1:47:21
  Speaker 3: This is the Todd Sterns Show. All right, welcome back everybody.
• 1:47:35
  Speaker 3: It is the Todd Sterns Radio Show. Here is some audio.
• 1:47:41
  Speaker 3: I want to play this from Michael Cloud, Congressman Michael Cloud.
• 1:47:46
  Speaker 3: He is blasting the Smithsonian because they don't have a
• 1:47:50
  Speaker 3: copy of Thomas Paine's Common Sense in the library there
• 1:47:54
  Speaker 3: at the National or the Smithsonian bookstore. I cut number
• 1:47:57
  Speaker 3: twenty nine plays.
• 1:48:00
  Speaker 30: Say is the most influential book in American history.
• 1:48:03
  Speaker 14: So if I may go back to your second what.
• 1:48:06
  Speaker 30: Would you say is most influential book? I go back
• 1:48:08
  Speaker 30: to your second question, and you can answer the one
• 1:48:09
  Speaker 30: I just asked you.
• 1:48:11
  Speaker 14: Well, I you know, as a historian, it's probably hard
• 1:48:15
  Speaker 14: to choose which is the most influential book in the
• 1:48:18
  Speaker 14: United States history. But I can tell you what's the
• 1:48:20
  Speaker 14: most influential document, and that is the Declaration of Independence,
• 1:48:23
  Speaker 14: which appears in different ways or five times.
• 1:48:27
  Speaker 30: The Founder's quoted one book more than any other book.
• 1:48:31
  Speaker 14: The founders were very well read, and as you know,
• 1:48:34
  Speaker 14: Thomas Jefferson's library became the core of the life.
• 1:48:37
  Speaker 30: Yes, and that book would have been the Bible. Secondly
• 1:48:40
  Speaker 30: would have been Common Sense by Thomas Pain. I went
• 1:48:42
  Speaker 30: to the bookstore. I couldn't find common Sense. In the bookstore,
• 1:48:46
  Speaker 30: I did find, you know.
• 1:48:47
  Speaker 2: These books.
• 1:48:48
  Speaker 30: Here's George t kay it rhymes with the Kay, a
• 1:48:52
  Speaker 30: book in which he talks about, you know, one young
• 1:48:55
  Speaker 30: man lusting after another. I'm not sure why this is
• 1:48:57
  Speaker 30: in our American History Museum and the kids section, mind you,
• 1:49:04
  Speaker 30: that's that's you think is important of having in the
• 1:49:07
  Speaker 30: American History Museum.
• 1:49:09
  Speaker 14: So George Takai, as you know, the actor from Star Trek,
• 1:49:13
  Speaker 14: was incarcerated during World War Two as the result of
• 1:49:17
  Speaker 14: Executive Order nine zero, say, and his children's book, I
• 1:49:20
  Speaker 14: think is a beautiful.
• 1:49:21
  Speaker 30: Made the decision with that in there, but not common Sense.
• 1:49:25
  Speaker 3: Great question, and I hope you get to the bottom
• 1:49:27
  Speaker 3: of all of that. By the way, if you missed
• 1:49:29
  Speaker 3: our interview we did with Michael Gonzalez from the Heritage Foundation,
• 1:49:34
  Speaker 3: he actually testified at that hearing. He was seated right
• 1:49:37

• 1:49:47
  Speaker 3: is worth the listen as he as Michael Gonzalez explains
• 1:49:53
  Speaker 3: what's really going on and why the Smithsonian is so
• 1:49:56
  Speaker 3: help pend on erasing our history. By the way, I'm
• 1:50:00
  Speaker 3: going to give a big shout out to Barrett Media
