David Fiorazo: Headlines, Bias, And The Battle For Truth · Worldview Matters With David Fiorazo

• 0:00
  Welcome to World View Matters, discussing controversial issues, discerning current events,
• 0:10
  defending biblical Christianity, no topic, off limits.
• 0:16
  And now, here's your host, David Firazzo.
• 0:19
  Hello brothers and sisters in Christ, thank you so much for tuning in, God bless you.
• 0:25
  And we're moving through April, getting closer to May 1st and 2nd.
• 0:28
  We've got an update on the conference in just a minute, but first I have a very important
• 0:33
  prayer request.
• 0:36
  I'm doing this podcast on headlines and news and things.
• 0:40
  I accumulated so many articles, we won't get through half of them, a lot of important
• 0:44
  things going on.
• 0:46
  But I was going to do this with Brian Thomas with blessings to Israel, but he could not make
• 0:52
  it today and I want you to pray for him.
• 0:55
  I just want you to share, I want to share in an email, he said, I woke up.
• 0:59
  This was Tuesday morning, last week now, because we're pre-recording this, Tuesday morning
• 1:04
  at 3 a.m. in excruciating pain in my leg and unable to walk.
• 1:09
  So DeNita took him to the hospital.
• 1:11
  He was there for at least a day, but he's had nerve issues and he was using a cane when
• 1:18
  he got home from the hospital Thursday, which is this morning.
• 1:22
  He said, I am just in too much pain and discomfort to give it a go today and be on the podcast.
• 1:28
  He apologized, but nothing to apologize for, brother.
• 1:31
  So friends, if you could please pray for Brian Thomas, please pray for him, for healing,
• 1:36
  for God's provision, for his wife, DeNita and what they're going through there.
• 1:42
  There's such a godly couple and he's just such a good brother and friend, not only to
• 1:48
  me, but to you guys, to this podcast and can't wait to have him on again.
• 1:52
  So please pray for Brian, but I want to start with, before we get to the story that he
• 1:58
  suggested to start off with today, I just want to quote this one.
• 2:03
  This is really good.
• 2:04
  One of the astronauts that went up and just recently, I guess there's a couple Christians,
• 2:12
  but one of them said we need Jesus and it was an incredible moment as Artemis to the pilot
• 2:20
  Victor Glover.
• 2:22
  He shared the gospel moments before reaching the back side of the moon and losing communication
• 2:28
  with the earth.
• 2:29
  He said, Christ said in response to what was the greatest command that it was to love God
• 2:37
  with all that you are.
• 2:40
  He also said being a great teacher, he said the second commandment equal to it and that
• 2:46
  is to love your neighbor as yourself.
• 2:48
  And so as we prepare to go out of radio communication, they're in space, right, flying in Artemis
• 2:54
  too.
• 2:55
  As we go out of radio communication, we're still going to feel your love from earth.
• 3:00
  And to all of you down there on earth and around the earth, we love you from the moon.
• 3:06
  And he said things like we need Jesus and he's unashamed of the gospel and his Christian
• 3:11
  faith.
• 3:12
  So we're just thankful for that.
• 3:14
  That recent news story.
• 3:15
  But now this is the one Brian and I, we're going to talk about today to start with a Michigan
• 3:21
  Democrat, quit politics, why she said her party's agenda betrayed her faith.
• 3:32
  And Brian told me about this.
• 3:34
  I think maybe several weeks ago and I said, well, what took her so long, but let's get
• 3:41
  into some of the details of this, it is interesting.
• 3:46
  So her name is Karen Whitsitt.
• 3:48
  I got to go to my, the printing is so small, I got to go to my laptop.
• 3:52
  Karen Whitsitt, she's stepping away from her political office.
• 3:55
  She said her Christian faith no longer aligns with today's Democrat party.
• 4:02
  She's had years of clashes over things like abortion, transgender issues and party leadership.
• 4:09
  Whitsitt, she represents part of North and Northwest Detroit in the fourth house district.
• 4:16
  She announced last month that she would not be seeking reelection and she called it a spiritual
• 4:23
  decision in an interview with Fox News Digital.
• 4:27
  She said she could no longer support the Democrat party and she had found herself increasingly
• 4:33
  at odds with party leaders for pushing policies that were incompatible with her beliefs.
• 4:43
  And she said, I don't understand how Christian and Bible can go together with Democrat party.
• 4:53
  Thank you.
• 4:54
  Where are the rest of any professing or people who claim to be Christians that are in the
• 5:01
  Democrat party?
• 5:02
  Where are the rest of you?
• 5:03
  If you read your Bible things, just do not line up.
• 5:06
  There are stark contrasts with what the Bible teaches.
• 5:10
  We should don't have time to get into theology and verse and chapter and verse here.
• 5:15
  But there's so many issues with, if you call yourself a Democrat, please do not put Christian
• 5:21
  in front of that because it doesn't line up.
• 5:24
  That's an oxymoron.
• 5:25
  But it was impossible for her to be a faithful follower of Jesus Christ, she said, while
• 5:31
  remaining a member of the Democrat party and she just could not reconcile the platform.
• 5:37
  Look at the platform.
• 5:39
  Stop looking at personalities, friends.
• 5:41
  Stop making this about President Trump.
• 5:43
  If you're a neutral, if you're an independent, if you're a Democrat, but you think you're
• 5:48
  a Christian and a Democrat, stop looking at Trump.
• 5:52
  Look at the platform.
• 5:54
  Look at the procedures, the policies of each party and when it comes to protecting life
• 6:00
  and mother's wombs, when it comes to defending girls and protecting children in schools and
• 6:06
  anyway, there's so many issues and we've talked a lot about them here.
• 6:10
  So let's just move on.
• 6:12
  Another article I wanted to get to, this is important, it's fallen out of the headlines.
• 6:17
  It was only in the mainstream media barely covered this.
• 6:21
  And over at the New York Post, this is an update and I'm really sad to see this homeless
• 6:29
  man that was accused of slaughtering Irene Zerutska on a train.
• 6:35
  There's, look at that photo right there.
• 6:37
  That was a moment before he struck her with a knife and killed her almost in an instant.
• 6:44
  The unsuspecting woman from Ukraine that came over here for a new life to get away from
• 6:51
  the war.
• 6:52
  She's working at a pizza place.
• 6:53
  I think that's the hat she's got on.
• 6:55
  Well, this 23 year old Ukrainian refugee was slaughtered in Charlotte on a train, a light
• 7:04
  rail train.
• 7:06
  Listen to this, friends, he has been found incapable to proceed on murder charges.
• 7:15
  So in other words, they can't try him.
• 7:20
  So this is a disturbing story because he had enough sense to get on the train, go along
• 7:27
  with his daily life and then target someone, a white young white woman and a attacker
• 7:32
  and kill her.
• 7:33
  But yet he can't stand trial.
• 7:37
  This is something that is making a lot of people very upset.
• 7:39
  So this was April 7th.
• 7:42
  This came down.
• 7:43
  It was, he was evaluated, I guess, de Carlos Brown Jr. at Central Regional Hospital and
• 7:50
  the report determined he was not competent to stand trial and it goes on.
• 7:54
  But bring up the picture and the article of her, just standing in the doorway there,
• 7:59
  just getting ready to go to work.
• 8:01
  Just another day.
• 8:03
  And thank you guys for praying for her mother.
• 8:07
  I remember President Trump had her, Irena Zorutzka's mother at the State of the Union.
• 8:14
  Just things like that.
• 8:15
  It was, I think he had 14 arrests.
• 8:17
  He was a felon, a career criminal.
• 8:21
  And you can't be held responsible for any of those, especially this one.
• 8:24
  So let's move on.
• 8:25
  Now let's talk about the media for a moment.
• 8:28
  And this one's over at not the B. So this is not the Babylon B. This is not satire.
• 8:33
  But this briefly says, the New York Times just beat the Babylon B at their own job.
• 8:38
  Look at this headline, believe it or not, the New York Times put this out.
• 8:42
  It is real, quote, the war is turning Iran into a major world power.
• 8:52
  So this goes against everything that we hear from most honest news outlets, obviously
• 9:01
  what we hear from Pete Hegseth, from President Trump, from JD Vance, what's happening, Marco
• 9:06
  Rubio, what's really going on over in Iran.
• 9:10
  And anyway, I mean, the New York Times just beat the Babylon B.
• 9:17
  So let's just see if they're right.
• 9:19
  If Iran turns into a major world power, oh, Lord help us.
• 9:24
  Okay.
• 9:25
  Now let's keep going.
• 9:27
  Let's keep going.
• 9:28
  There's another headline.
• 9:29
  Jeff, I don't think I sent this to you, but this is from the Wall Street Journal.
• 9:33
  He says Iran tightens its grip on Hormuz, the straight of Hormuz, despite ceasefire.
• 9:42
  Now this podcast is going to be, you're watching this probably about a little less than
• 9:46
  a week later than when we recorded it when there was a ceasefire didn't last very long
• 9:51
  because Iran went back in there and tried to clog up that straight.
• 9:55
  But so Trump demanded opening the straight of Hormuz.
• 10:00
  And Tehran's revolutionary guard is now limiting or according to where we're at now.
• 10:06
  They're limiting ship traffic and they're charging tolls.
• 10:11
  I don't know what's going to happen here, what the end result of this is going to be.
• 10:15
  But I don't think it's going to be pretty friends, but I know most people in America don't
• 10:21
  have the patience for anything long and drawn out.
• 10:24
  But we just want to pray for this thing to be resolved hopefully quickly.
• 10:28
  Now, oh, wait a minute, there's another news story we've got to get to over at life news.
• 10:33
  And I know I'm going fast, but we'll try to put some of these, if not most of these in
• 10:38
  the description of the podcast if you're on YouTube, rumble, we'll try to put these online.
• 10:44
  So over at life news, big story that the liberal media will not cover.
• 10:49
  This goes back, I believe the 2015, the final charge dismissed against David Delidon
• 10:59
  for exposing planned parenthood aborted baby part sales.
• 11:05
  This is a true story, friends, and this is actually really unbelievable that it took this long.
• 11:12
  And again, this is over at life news, a lot of conservative or pro life outlets picked up this story.
• 11:18
  This is from early April and he has gone through the ringer.
• 11:23
  This was back in 2015.
• 11:25
  Let me just read some of it.
• 11:27
  So it was bogus criminal charges against Delidon, they have been dismissed.
• 11:34
  This ends a nearly decade long, Democrat led prosecution launched to silence.
• 11:43
  Why did they come against him?
• 11:45
  He put out undercover videos recording executives and workers at plan parenthood,
• 11:50
  bragging about selling baby body parts, aborted baby body parts.
• 11:57
  You might not remember this.
• 11:59
  If you weren't following the right conservative or Christian news outlets,
• 12:02
  you'll never saw this story, but the Democrats actually it was Kamala Harris
• 12:07
  when she was attorney general California.
• 12:09
  Let me go back to the article.
• 12:11
  He's the founder and president of center for medical progress.
• 12:15
  He exposed plan, parenthood's grizzly, aborted baby parts trade.
• 12:23
  And some of you are thinking why I never heard this story and isn't that a sad statement
• 12:28
  on our media today in America because of the grizzly reality,
• 12:34
  the demonic agendas that were being carried out and our media won't cover these stories.
• 12:42
  So let's go on as promised, the charges were dismissed, who came against him,
• 12:47
  plan parenthood federation of America and the national abortion federation.
• 12:52
  So I'm just reading a quick quote from this article.
• 12:55
  The prosecution began 14 charges against him.
• 13:01
  They were dismissed.
• 13:03
  Then California attorney general Kamala Harris in 2015,
• 13:10
  fought David Delayden because he had the guts and the courage to go and record
• 13:17
  undercover videos of plan parenthood executives and employees talking about what they were actually doing.
• 13:25
  Can you believe that so?
• 13:26
  The truth was exposed because you had a amount on tape,
• 13:31
  but Kamala Harris and Democrat socialists in California at that time
• 13:37
  and those who were pro-abortion came against Delayden and now finally the charges have been dismissed.
• 13:43
  I want to quote one thing after enduring nine years of weaponized political prosecution, he said,
• 13:49
  putting an end to the law fair launched by Kamala Harris.
• 13:54
  It's a huge victory for my investigative reporting and for the public's right to know the truth
• 14:02
  about plan parenthood's sale of aborted baby body parts.
• 14:08
  Now we all must get to work to protect families and infants from the criminal abortion industrial complex.
• 14:20
  God bless you, David Delayden and others citizen journalists that are doing this kind of work
• 14:26
  because you see what kind of demonic attacks come against someone who is trying to do something and report the truth.
• 14:35
  So yes, this is just more dirt on plan parenthood.
• 14:40
  We've got to take a brief pause, a lot more articles and news stories when we come right back on World View Matters.
• 14:45
  Every day it feels more and more urgent and I think if people are watching this or listening to this
• 14:51
  and you don't feel that urgency then you haven't quite woken up yet.
• 14:55
  It is urgent.
• 14:57
  I'm glad you mentioned that because right on the homepage of the website it says redeem the time.
• 15:02
  It says that the World View Matters conference we hope to encourage and equip Christians to share the gospel,
• 15:07
  speak the truth and stand boldly for the faith in this present cultural dorm.
• 15:14
  And it says expert speakers will tackle the most critical issues of our day with clarity and a sense of urgency.
• 15:26
  Yes, and thank you to all of our sponsors and I've been telling people this week we now have the schedule of speakers,
• 15:34
  the order and when all the speakers, the expert speakers are going to be at World View Matters conference starting with 1 p.m.
• 15:42
  on Friday, May 1st.
• 15:43
  It is Alex Newman.
• 15:45
  He is kicking off the whole conference at the Delta Hotel in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
• 15:51
  At 7.15 each night you can see there we're having a question and answer a Q&A panel.
• 15:57
  It's a roundtable with the speakers there that are available each night, both nights.
• 16:01
  So you can just see the schedule now if you've got tickets.
• 16:05
  And as I mentioned before, we have a couple dozen tickets left.
• 16:10
  We're going to try to maybe get more seats put in if we can rearrange the chairs a little bit.
• 16:14
  But WorldViewMattersConference.com, WorldViewMattersConference.com.
• 16:19
  We are also looking into live streaming.
• 16:21
  So we're going to look in the technical aspect of that, what that's going to entail and hopefully you can access.
• 16:27
  But now back to the stories over at the Daily Signal, another good news story over the Supreme Court ruled 8 to 1 in this massive free speech case.
• 16:39
  Let me tell you about what happened.
• 16:42
  The Supreme Court, 8 to 1 ruling that a Colorado ban on conversion therapy for counselors unlawfully regulate speech and is viewpoint discrimination.
• 16:57
  So the one justice, the most radical of the Democrat socialists and Supreme Court justices, I mean radicals on the left.
• 17:08
  Katenji Brown Jackson, that was the one justice that voted against this.
• 17:15
  So it was 8 to 1 and she of course was an appointee of President Joe Biden.
• 17:19
  She dissented the case was child's versus Salazar.
• 17:23
  So the story briefly is Kaylee Childs.
• 17:27
  She's a Christian licensed counselor and Colorado Springs.
• 17:30
  She used what they call talk therapy with patients who voluntarily sought her help.
• 17:37
  That included minors who said they struggled with their sexuality or gender.
• 17:43
  They wanted their behavior to be in accordance with their sex and religious faith.
• 17:48
  And that's all she did is have counseling and that they had a ban in Colorado on this.
• 17:54
  And finally, the Supreme Court took up the case.
• 18:00
  And this is, I believe, a judge, the opinion, the majority opinion by judge Justice Gorsuch.
• 18:07
  He said as applied to Miss Childs, Colorado's law regulates the content of her speech and goes further to prescribe what views she may and may not express discriminating on the basis of viewpoint.
• 18:21
  That was the majority opinion.
• 18:23
  One more quote from this and we'll move on in the Heritage Foundation quote an overwhelming majority of the Supreme Court struck a welcome blow against the less trampling of Kaylee Childs constitutional right of free speech.
• 18:39
  Shamefully the Colorado legislative sought legislature sought to force all Colorado licensed health care professionals on their views and on sexuality on gender ideology.
• 18:53
  So these is a state by state friends.
• 18:55
  You're going to see more cases like this.
• 18:57
  I'm glad it went down this way eight to one.
• 19:00
  So praise God.
• 19:01
  Now over to prophecy news watch for this next one.
• 19:05
  This I find to be incredibly interesting.
• 19:09
  Let's go to the great divorce continues massive migration from Democrat counties.
• 19:19
  So friends, not only are people moving out of places like California, Illinois, New York and others.
• 19:28
  But we find even within some red states, there are blue counties that people are moving out of the question is.
• 19:37
  How much will will this or will this even impact elections that's still to come.
• 19:44
  Let's move down to what this says that it says the past five years have seen a massive and they're using the word massive migration of Americans out of heavily democratic counties.
• 19:57
  And into counties where Donald Trump won majorities in each of the past three elections.
• 20:04
  That's according to an exclusive analysis done by issues and insights of the latest census bureau and election data.
• 20:14
  Now let's go down to what they found millions aren't just moving out of blue states.
• 20:20
  They're moving out of blue counties within states.
• 20:24
  So now let's go to a couple of the graphs and they're very interesting.
• 20:27
  The biggest winners and losers winners looks like Colin or Colin County, Texas up 133,000.
• 20:38
  Also in this article, if you look at the winners and losers, Polk County, Florida, up 125,000 Montgomery County, Texas, up 120,000 and it goes on.
• 20:50
  Pasco County, Florida, Denton County, Texas, Williamson County, Texas, Pennell County, Arizona, Maricopa County, Arizona, up 95,000, Fort Bend County, Texas.
• 21:04
  That's a blue County and then Lee County, Florida.
• 21:07
  That's the only blue County.
• 21:08
  Listen, now look what who's losing?
• 21:10
  Look at all the blue underneath there.
• 21:12
  All the blue Orange County, California lost 148,000 Harris County, Texas.
• 21:18
  That's a blue County.
• 21:20
  They lost 162,000 California, Santa Clara County.
• 21:25
  They lost 175,000.
• 21:27
  Another county in Texas, Dallas, who's really blue.
• 21:30
  Unfortunately, they lost almost 200,000 Bronx County, New York lost 201,000 Queens County 266,000, a blue County in Florida.
• 21:44
  Now people not moving out of the state now, but moving from this blue County, 278,000 Kings County, New York lost 370, I'm sorry, 307,000 people,
• 21:57
  Cook County Illinois, 320,000 people are moved out of there and look at Los Angeles County, California, just LA County, 693,000 moved out of there.
• 22:12
  This is interesting and again, the question we don't know the answer to, how will this affect, for example, the midterms in November, we don't know.
• 22:20
  Five minutes left and about five more articles to get to, we might not have all that we need to, all the time we need to get to all of them.
• 22:28
  But I want to go to this one that our friend Brad Reeves put out at coming soon ministries.
• 22:33
  This is over at comingsoonministries.substac.com.
• 22:38
  And he basically said the headlines reveal global coordination, interesting word, he calls it, he with each crisis, the beast system continues to build.
• 22:50
  And I just want to quote our friend pastor Brad Reeves, he said, we are living at a time when nations are increasingly interconnected.
• 22:59
  Economic systems are interdependent and global cooperation is increasingly necessary for peace and security.
• 23:08
  Each crisis becomes an argument for more coordination and amid the energy concerns, for example, of the state of Harmuz, you can see the factions.
• 23:18
  And in parentheses, he says, dare I say kingdoms, aligning, America, Israel, which will eventually break Russia, China, Turkey, Europe, and others aligning together.
• 23:32
  And then he said the prophet Daniel saw this long ago before our modern headlines and he says, this is, he quoted the fourth beast and Daniel 723.
• 23:43
  Don't have time to get into all that right now, but it seems like when nations are aligning together, kingdoms are aligning together.
• 23:50
  And again, what did Jesus warn? He said, do not be worried about this, nation will rise against nation, kingdom against kingdom, there will be wars and rumors of war.
• 24:00
  But you can look up some of this, Daniel 723, Revelation 13, 7 talks about the 10 horns that you saw are the 10 kings who have not yet received royal power, talking about the beast system.
• 24:17
  And finally, before we move on, the world is not becoming chaotic, he said, but coordinated.
• 24:23
  I think personally it's in, it's a combination of chaos and coordination when you talk about what is aligning against Israel and what is aligning against Jesus and Christianity.
• 24:34
  But that's from our friend Pastor Brad Reeves. Now, over to MRC Media Research Center newsbusters, I've got less than three minutes to go through two of these really quick.
• 24:44
  This is the most astounding, well, they're all head scratching. There's a special report that Apple News was the most radical of big four news apps in March last month.
• 24:58
  434 left-leaning sites were used, right? How many right-leaning sites?
• 25:08
  Five. Put up that graphic. Look at, just look at the numbers friend, look at that. If you're watching, if you're listening, 434 to five.
• 25:18
  So what that means is Apple News selected articles from left-leaning media outlets, 434 out of 592 total related stories in the top 20 of its morning editions last month in the month of March.
• 25:32
  Apple News is guilty of more than just suppressing right-leaning news. It ran massively more headlines from left-leaning outlets.
• 25:43
  And let me just share the truth that it's not just Apple News. It's Google, it's the major outlets. So this is just a 435.
• 25:56
  We don't have time to mention the fact checker. Yes, we will. Put up this one more media research center story from NewsBusters, it says zero lies.
• 26:06
  So far in 2026, Politifact, which is a so-called fact checker, LOL, Politifact implies the Democrats never get anything wrong. They never mangle a fact.
• 26:20
