And I just want to say, if you 24 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: have not yet joined us on the journey to help 25 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:38,039 Speaker 1: save a baby's life. Twenty eight dollars will save a 26 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 1: baby's life this month with an ultrasound for a woman 27 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:45,319 Speaker 1: who is in a crisis pregnancy and has lost hope 28 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 1: of finding options other than abortion. Preborn centers across the 29 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 1: country in more than two hundred and eighty locations standing by, 30 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 1: ready to give her a free ultrasound and some counseling 31 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 1: and to let her know what's going on inside of 32 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 1: her body. And nine times out of ten when that 33 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 1: takes place, that mom decides for life and she gives 34 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 1: life to that baby instead of aborting it. And I 35 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 1: just really believe strongly in it. A ten pack of 36 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 1: abortion of ultrasounds is two hundred and eighty dollars twenty 37 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 1: eight dollars apiece. You can save an entire slew of 38 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 1: babies with a gift of any size. Just divide it 39 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,160 Speaker 1: by twenty eight and that's what it'll do. But here's 40 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,959 Speaker 1: the number. Eight three three eight five zero b A 41 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: b y eight three three eight five zero baby eight 42 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:36,120 Speaker 1: three three eight five zero baby. We've got a lot 43 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:38,359 Speaker 1: of interesting things to talk about on today's show, not 44 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 1: the least of which is Shelley Goldberg's gonna be with 45 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 1: us a little bit later here in hour one to 46 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 1: talk about parenting, and this week we are talking about 47 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 1: helping our children learn how to love to read. I 48 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 1: don't know, were you a big reader growing up? They 49 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 1: say readers or leaders. I read somewhere along the lines 50 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:04,640 Speaker 1: of four forty news outlets, different information a day. And 51 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:08,800 Speaker 1: it's one of those things where you know, I just 52 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 1: I just think that's it always does best to keep 53 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 1: oneself informed. And so I think reading is important. Teaching 54 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 1: our children to have a love for reading is really 55 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: important as well. There's more developments on what's going on 56 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:30,519 Speaker 1: in Minnesota. We're going to get to that. Yesterday here 57 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 1: in New York, kind of a shameful thing happened. But 58 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: the mayor, the new mayor, who is a Marxist, who 59 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 1: is a radical Islamic, committed believer, who is you know, 60 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 1: besides being a Marxist, he is he is in all 61 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 1: ways a progressive, hates Israel, does not have an affinity 62 00:03:56,080 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 1: for Jewish people. And yet you know, he's like, trust me, 63 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 1: you don't really know what I'm about. You got to 64 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: vote for it. It's kind of like Pelosi said, we 65 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: have to pass the bill to find out what's in it. 66 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: He was like, vote me in so you know what 67 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 1: I actually will do. That was kind of the That 68 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,479 Speaker 1: was kind of the way he went about it. Anyway, 69 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 1: he got New York landlords basically stripped of their power 70 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 1: of their own buildings this week, and what he wants 71 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 1: to do with that with his Housing Commissioner is to 72 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 1: more or less socialize housing in the city of New York, 73 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: which I think is going to have a devastating negative 74 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 1: effect on a lot of quality of life issues and 75 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,720 Speaker 1: other things. But it's going to be it's going to 76 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:51,919 Speaker 1: be interesting to see where that goes. And this is 77 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 1: the kind of thing that I think when I see 78 00:04:56,480 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: the mayor of Minneapolis and the governor of Minneapolis yesterday saying, 79 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:05,119 Speaker 1: and they weren't kouth in how they said it, they said, 80 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 1: get the f bomb out of Minnesota. Get the F 81 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 1: bomb out of Minneapolis. Today on Instagram. Eric Swolwell, the 82 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:20,119 Speaker 1: congressman from California who was sleeping with a Chinese spy 83 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: for a number of years. I don't know if he 84 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 1: knew he was being compromised or not, but that spy 85 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 1: ended up getting access to information that he had from 86 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,479 Speaker 1: his high level committees. And that's why he got kicked 87 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,359 Speaker 1: off the committees because he was sleeping with a spy 88 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 1: that was basically shaking him down for the info. But 89 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 1: here's the bottom line. He said the same thing to 90 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 1: a camera. He cornered a cameraman. He said, stay the 91 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:49,920 Speaker 1: f bomb out of California. It's all these f bombs. 92 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 1: Everybody's f bombing everything. And I'm like, is that really necessary? 93 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:59,720 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. Somebody asked me the other day, 94 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: do you feel about the F around and F out phrase? 95 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 1: It's become so popular, and you know, it's it's been 96 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,479 Speaker 1: put up on both sides of the aisle. They've said 97 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,800 Speaker 1: it on social media and stuff, and I'm like, guys, 98 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:16,799 Speaker 1: this is the year that I want to elevate things. 99 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 1: This is the year that I want to I was 100 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 1: telling my bride last night, I said, this is the 101 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: year that I want to try to think of higher, 102 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 1: on higher things. I want to do the stuff that 103 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 1: Paul and Jesus said, you know, whatever's good, whatever's pure, whatever, like, 104 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:30,719 Speaker 1: I want to move in that direction. I want to 105 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 1: reach higher, I want to aim for better. I want 106 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 1: a better society. So I want to do my part 107 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,839 Speaker 1: in helping people think more clearly. I want to I 108 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 1: want a more loving and compassionate world, So I'm going 109 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 1: to try to be more loving and compassionate. And all 110 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:46,840 Speaker 1: the F bombs flying around everywhere, I don't think that 111 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,920 Speaker 1: helps anything. Maybe maybe you think I'm goofy eight eight 112 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,039 Speaker 1: eight six nine two seven two three four. I know 113 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 1: that there's a different paradigm from when I grew up. 114 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 1: I never heard that word in public, and now it's 115 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:05,040 Speaker 1: like everywhere. Kids say it to their parents in grocery stores, 116 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 1: and I'm like, do you let them do that? Do 117 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 1: you you have no reaction? I saw literally this was 118 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: probably three years ago, but I literally saw it had 119 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 1: to be a child no bigger than eight or nine 120 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 1: curse out his mom, telling her she was F blanking 121 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 1: this and f blanking that and all the and she 122 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 1: literally just like I felt sorry for her. It was 123 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 1: like you could tell she's been conditioned to just take 124 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: it from this kid. But if he's like that at 125 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 1: eight years old, what is he going to be like 126 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 1: when he's eighteen? And if you let that kid out 127 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 1: on the street, what are they going to be like? Well, 128 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 1: maybe we're seeing it. Maybe maybe these protests that burn 129 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 1: things down and you know, rage is better than righteousness 130 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 1: kind of you know idea. Maybe maybe that's what we're 131 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 1: in store for. You watch watch the reaction in the 132 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 1: Somali community in Minnesota for the next few weeks. So 133 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 1: much wrongdoing, and there's got to be some accountability. You 134 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 1: got to you got to take people to jail, you 135 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 1: got to stop giving people the checks, you got to 136 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 1: do all that. I'm interested to see how a terrorist 137 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 1: supporting community responds to that. I really am. I don't 138 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 1: want to live there, but I'm very curious how that's 139 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 1: going to all go down. You know, elon Omar should 140 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 1: probably be cuffed and put in jail. Tim Waltz, you know, 141 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 1: all of them, if they had anything to do with 142 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 1: the illegalities of it, because they're the leaders. You're you're 143 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:43,840 Speaker 1: more guilty. You're more guilty than the than the woman 144 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 1: who just took the check from you, because you you 145 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 1: had to conspire to make this happen. And whatever you 146 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 1: can obtain from a leering center instead of a learning 147 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 1: center that commits fraud against the US population, that's that's 148 00:08:57,760 --> 00:08:59,719 Speaker 1: just what you're going to deal with. But there is 149 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: this crassness that has come into our language, and it 150 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 1: is over this idea that there are law enforcement officers 151 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:10,440 Speaker 1: that do not have to be obeyed. Now, I don't 152 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:12,680 Speaker 1: know where that came from. That is not something I 153 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 1: teach my sons. And I have a black Haitian son, 154 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 1: and I have two Anglo white sons natural birth, and 155 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: I tell all of them, if a police officer pulls 156 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:28,080 Speaker 1: you over, you say yes, sir, you roll your window down. 157 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 1: You cooperate. If they say show me your license, you 158 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: show them your license. You cooperate with law enforcement. That's 159 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 1: the way it works.

All right, Ryan batesl is back with us. 175 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:47,959 Speaker 1: It is that time in the show when we ask 176 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 1: the big question, how do we live? How do we 177 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,439 Speaker 1: live in the context of a culture that hates God, 178 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 1: despises his word? How do we live in the midst 179 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,200 Speaker 1: of that? That's what we try to answer in this 180 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 1: segment every day. And Ryan, you and I happen to 181 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 1: be friends off the air. Besides the fact that you 182 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 1: have contributed with us in this effort the last two years. 183 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 1: Thankful that you've been willing to do that. But it 184 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 1: really is true. I think that most people if you 185 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:18,080 Speaker 1: just say God, I think most people don't have a 186 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 1: problem with God. I think when you say God and 187 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:25,439 Speaker 1: the Bible that all of a sudden, even sometimes in 188 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 1: crazy enough the church, sometimes people get a little squirrely 189 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: and now they're starting to get uncomfortable. And but that 190 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,840 Speaker 1: just means we just got to live even you know more, 191 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 1: what we. 192 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 4: Believe right, Yeah, yeah, I think most people they're okay 193 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 4: with God as a vague thing, yeah, but not digging 194 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 4: down into what about our creator God, who loves me 195 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,079 Speaker 4: and wants to know me. You know, we're funny because 196 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 4: we know truth is true, you know, and truth in 197 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,840 Speaker 4: its very nature excludes things that are false. Like we 198 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 4: get that in our bank accout, we get that in 199 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 4: almost every area of life. 200 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,079 Speaker 1: Get that in your gas. Take your guess tank will 201 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 1: tell you the truth when you're empty, you're empty. 202 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 4: Yeah. 203 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 2: Yeah. 204 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 4: For some reason, when it comes to God, we want 205 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 4: to lose our mind and pretend that doesn't exist. And 206 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,200 Speaker 4: I don't know anything can be true, right, but that 207 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 4: we know that's not true. 208 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:21,199 Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, that's why I think it's helpful for us 209 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:24,439 Speaker 1: to regird our mind every day, even before I jump 210 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 1: into the news of the day. So thank you for 211 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:27,840 Speaker 1: helping us with that. We've been looking at Luke five 212 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:31,200 Speaker 1: this week. It's about friendship. It's about the kinds of 213 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,679 Speaker 1: friends that we need, and it's also about the kind 214 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:37,240 Speaker 1: of friends that we need to be. And we've done 215 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:40,079 Speaker 1: the exposition for four days and today we usually talk 216 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 1: about application. How do I how do I make sense 217 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 1: of this man being lowered through the roof and apply 218 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 1: it to you know, my New Jersey, New York tri 219 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 1: state area life today. 220 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 8: Yeah. 221 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think two things right. One is I need 222 00:12:55,760 --> 00:13:00,880 Speaker 4: to be intentional about finding a friend or two and 223 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 4: that means for me being a friend or two. And 224 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 4: I'm just going to tell you in New York, New Jersey, 225 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 4: that means looking at my calendar and going where do 226 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 4: I need to carve out some time to make this investment? 227 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,559 Speaker 4: So I got to get real practical with my calendar. 228 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,319 Speaker 4: And I joke a lot with our church that we're 229 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 4: in this funny time where everyone's pretty good at boundaries 230 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 4: and everyone's pretty good at guarding their time, and then 231 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,439 Speaker 4: they use all the time they guarded to sit in 232 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 4: front of Netflix. So rather than guarding your time to 233 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 4: sit home and watch TV, what about guarding your time 234 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:40,200 Speaker 4: to say, Hey, twice a month, I'm going to connect 235 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 4: with two friends. We're going to do something to develop friendship. 236 00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:49,560 Speaker 4: And I just think that's one very practical application of this. 237 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 4: I need to guard my time to get some friendship. 238 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:54,840 Speaker 4: And I think the other application is I need to 239 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 4: be the friend that's a good enough friend to bring 240 00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 4: people to Jesus and a little bit of what we 241 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 4: get into this week that these friends remove the obstacles. 242 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 4: And one of the things we want to think about 243 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 4: with our friends is what are their obstacles? Who knows? 244 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 4: Intellectual obstacles? Is it like time obstacles like we talked about. 245 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:17,199 Speaker 4: They never truly sat down and thought about God. You 246 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 4: know what, I think a lot of people in North Jersey. 247 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:21,880 Speaker 4: The issues for them is they just don't want to 248 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:25,400 Speaker 4: be taken advantage of and there's some bad players out there, 249 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 4: and so they're concerned. I don't want to be taken 250 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 4: advantage of it. I'm curious about God. I don't know 251 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 4: where to start. That could be an obstacle. I have 252 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 4: a friend who lost his father when he was very young. 253 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 4: He's angry at God. That's his obstacle. And these friends 254 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 4: remove some real specific obstacles to bring the friend to Jesus. 255 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:45,880 Speaker 4: And it's really awesome. Yeah, yeah, I think that one 256 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 4: you just show up for. And what I've noticed is 257 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 4: when the God conversation comes up, he gets angry. Well 258 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 4: that's not bad. Anger is better than apathy. And what 259 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 4: I've seen in my mind life is those who get 260 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 4: angry pretty quick they're actually not that far, and so 261 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 4: I want to hang in there long enough to see 262 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 4: if that anger might swing through some faithful friendship. 263 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 1: Well in the fullness aspect, Well, you kind of understand 264 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 1: this in advertising. We understand this when I'm doing a 265 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 1: campaign for a client or a commercial. You know, not 266 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 1: everybody is going to need everything that we offer every 267 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 1: day of the week, but you run the car ads 268 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 1: so that when somebody needs a new car, they know 269 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,240 Speaker 1: where the car store is and they can go buy 270 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 1: a new car when they need that. I kind of 271 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 1: think that evangelism and friendship is it runs very much 272 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 1: along the same lines. They may not be interested every day, 273 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:53,400 Speaker 1: There may not be an opportunity every day to insert 274 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:55,440 Speaker 1: it into the conversation, even if you want to be 275 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:58,960 Speaker 1: really proactive about it and still maintain the friendship. At 276 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:01,120 Speaker 1: some point in time, if they know that that that's 277 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 1: real for you, and I've seen it happen in my 278 00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: own life, they will pull you aside and I will say, hey, 279 00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:09,280 Speaker 1: what does Christianity say about this? What does the Bible 280 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 1: say about this? And sometimes it's just as kind of 281 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 1: like a skeptic, and they're just kind of like, but 282 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 1: you can tell that it's something deeper because they're testing 283 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 1: the waters. 284 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:21,400 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, oh yeah. And you know, think about the account. 285 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 4: How long were these guys friends with the paralyzed man 286 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 4: and they must have thought, I don't know, if there's 287 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 4: never anything we can do for this guy. And suddenly 288 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 4: Jesus comes to town and they're like, well, like you're saying, 289 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 4: we've had this friendship, now's finally an opportunity where maybe 290 00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 4: we can truly help them. 291 00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:42,360 Speaker 1: So well, I think it's it's going to be for 292 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: different people, different levels of experimentation. I know that from 293 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 1: this week's conversation with you, I've reached out to two 294 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 1: friends that I have known for a long time and 295 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:57,000 Speaker 1: I have not been a faithful friend in recent years, 296 00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 1: and I've said, hey, let's let's get a time on 297 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 1: the calendar to catch up. And I think that that's 298 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,639 Speaker 1: going to I hope that that's going to lead to 299 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 1: a greater beneficial relationship in a lot of ways. Although 300 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:11,439 Speaker 1: these are brothers, and you know, it's it's not that 301 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,119 Speaker 1: I'm necessarily trying to lead them to Jesus. They already 302 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,679 Speaker 1: know him, but that but even that, like if you 303 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,360 Speaker 1: want the iron that sharpens iron in your life. Then 304 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:21,159 Speaker 1: you have to you have to have the iron that 305 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:23,800 Speaker 1: sharpens iron in your life. Like there's no way to 306 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 1: have a friend who prods you and helps you and 307 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:28,119 Speaker 1: pokes you and says, hey, you can do better than this. 308 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:29,880 Speaker 1: Then to have a friend in your life who prod 309 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:31,399 Speaker 1: you and pokes you and says, hey, you can do 310 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:33,719 Speaker 1: better than this. If you don't ever have them, then 311 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 1: they'll never do it. They'll miss it every moe the time. 312 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:39,879 Speaker 4: That's exactly right. Those are the four guys who when 313 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 4: life hits, they're there. You know, when when my life 314 00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:47,159 Speaker 4: falls apart, I'm not calling my unbelieving friends, I'm calling 315 00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 4: my that I'm trying to carry to Jesus.

I always like a date. It's mighty men. 319 00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:00,080 Speaker 4: You know. How do I get a group of guys 320 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:03,239 Speaker 4: like David's mighty made around me who when the battles hit, 321 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:07,200 Speaker 4: they're going to go to battle with me. And that's 322 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:11,719 Speaker 4: just helpful to know. I got a couple men in 323 00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:15,399 Speaker 4: my life that they get access.

Yeah, sure, I mean, I think it's fascinating. 335 00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 4: Women can connect really quick face to face. They're just 336 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:53,879 Speaker 4: better at it. They're better at connection. Men are a 337 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 4: lot slower. And what men tend to do is not 338 00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 4: face to face, but shoulder to shoulder, and we're going 339 00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:01,960 Speaker 4: to sit by side. That's why men tend to bond 340 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,400 Speaker 4: it better when they do things like play golf, sit 341 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:07,680 Speaker 4: at a campfire, go on a hike, hunt like guys 342 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:11,600 Speaker 4: who hunt, tend to have some good friends. And as 343 00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,440 Speaker 4: a Christian, you know, as a Christian man side by side, 344 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:16,679 Speaker 4: there's going to be some connection. But I want to 345 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:19,520 Speaker 4: do something at some point in this relationship. I want 346 00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 4: to make the turn, and I want to ask some 347 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 4: honest questions somewhere around the whole sixteen of an eighteen 348 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:30,240 Speaker 4: whole thing, somewhere around the third quarter of a football game. 349 00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:33,359 Speaker 4: You know, we're putting the relational time in side by side, 350 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:37,600 Speaker 4: focused usually on a project together, enjoying each other. But Kevin, 351 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 4: I can't tell you. I say it like just the 352 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,359 Speaker 4: amount of times I've been around a campfire with a 353 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:47,320 Speaker 4: group of guys, and somewhere around hour two it becomes 354 00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:50,920 Speaker 4: the coffee shop. You know, that's my dog. It becomes 355 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:54,160 Speaker 4: the coffee up where men are confessing sin, and men 356 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 4: are honest about their struggles, and men are even weeping 357 00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:02,520 Speaker 4: at times. But to expect that to happen because someone calls, 358 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 4: Now I have some friends. Now that I've built that 359 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 4: we have enough connection. Now we can go pretty quick. Yeah, 360 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 4: but for most minute it's a slower process. 361 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,600 Speaker 1: Well, this has all been very helpful, and if you'd 362 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:17,920 Speaker 1: like more information, Friends Emergence dot Church on the internet 363 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: at YouTube you can see them as well Emergency Church. 364 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 1: The other thing that I would suggest is that if 365 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 1: you've enjoyed this series, Ryan is in this passage talking 366 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 1: about this story, this narrative for at least the next 367 00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:33,920 Speaker 1: two weeks.

We are attempting 378 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,199 Speaker 1: to save the lives of twelve hundred children before the 379 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:25,480 Speaker 1: end of the year. I'm before the end of the month, 380 00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 1: actually this month, preborn in that Kevin show, are once 381 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 1: again working together for those of you that listen to 382 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 1: me in New York. You know we've done this for 383 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:37,199 Speaker 1: the last I don't know ten years, and we have 384 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 1: done it to the praise and glory and honor of God. 385 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:44,959 Speaker 1: And we have seen literally thousands, more than a thousand 386 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 1: children rescued from the horrors that would have awaited them 387 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:53,360 Speaker 1: had those ultrasounds not been available. For those moms. We're 388 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 1: trying to do that all in one month this year, friends, nationally, 389 00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:00,320 Speaker 1: I would just ask if you've if you've never the 390 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:07,240 Speaker 1: step to step into the pro life issue, this is 391 00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:11,160 Speaker 1: a great entry point for you to not only understand 392 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 1: how it all matters and works, but to do so 393 00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:17,520 Speaker 1: with a trustworthy partner in preborn because that ultrasound that 394 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:20,880 Speaker 1: you give that woman in that moment of need has 395 00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,240 Speaker 1: a dramatic impact on their life. Scott Wilder's back with 396 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:26,960 Speaker 1: us and Scott. This is typically a month in which, 397 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:30,239 Speaker 1: you know, the pro abortion side always celebrated, and you know, 398 00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 1: remember a couple of years ago when they were like, 399 00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:35,199 Speaker 1: I shout my abortion. Remember they were like trying to 400 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:38,200 Speaker 1: do Dead Poets Society, but it was all about their abortion. Yeah, 401 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,959 Speaker 1: and that kind of made me like sick to my stomach. Actually, 402 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:45,359 Speaker 1: sure you're running around bragging about this. But then simultaneously, 403 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 1: January has also been for pro life people a time 404 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:50,800 Speaker 1: in which we've come together and said, hey, Roe v. 405 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:54,199 Speaker 1: Wade was a sad thing, and hundreds of thousands of 406 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 1: people would go to Washington, d C. Every January. The 407 00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 1: media would almost completely ignore it, pretend like it didn't 408 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:03,879 Speaker 1: even happened, and then they would say and we're protesting 409 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,720 Speaker 1: and we're marching because we believe in life. We want 410 00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 1: life to be elevated, we want to elevate the excellence 411 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 1: of you know, supporting life and all the rest of that. 412 00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 1: And that that was the case up until the year 413 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:19,960 Speaker 1: that Roe v. Wade got overturned. And then I think 414 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,159 Speaker 1: a lot of people went, well, maybe it's not that 415 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:24,200 Speaker 1: big of a deal anymore. They still have the March 416 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:26,440 Speaker 1: for Life, and I think the pro abortion side still 417 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 1: gets together. But whether or not you're in any of 418 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:32,440 Speaker 1: any or all of those camps, the truth is that 419 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:36,159 Speaker 1: a crisis pregnancy center's door was opened today when a 420 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 1: girl who was in a very bad situation darkened that door, 421 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 1: walked through it, met a counselor, and began to have 422 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:48,120 Speaker 1: some degree of support and help because a preborn counselor said, 423 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:50,840 Speaker 1: let's get to know who you are and let's see 424 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:53,679 Speaker 1: how we can help you. And regardless of marches and 425 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,840 Speaker 1: bands and laws and overturning and Supreme courts and all 426 00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 1: the rest of that, that girl still walks through that 427 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 1: door every day and we can we can touch her. 428 00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:05,479 Speaker 1: We may not be able to impact anything else, but 429 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 1: we can help that girl because she comes to a 430 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,800 Speaker 1: preborn center. It really all comes down to one on one. 431 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,359 Speaker 1: I mean, really, you can't do it on some global thing. 432 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 1: You know, what do they say? 433 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:18,879 Speaker 8: Eighty five eighty seven percent of the people that end up, 434 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:19,800 Speaker 8: you know, coming to the. 435 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 1: Lord were first invited to church by. 436 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 8: Another person, someone was close to them, someone was their friend. 437 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 8: Their community began with just that human contact. It wasn't 438 00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 8: a deal where you could just send it out to 439 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,680 Speaker 8: everybody in boom. Everybody's saved at the same time or 440 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,800 Speaker 8: believes the same thing at the same time in the 441 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:44,160 Speaker 8: same way. This is a one on one. In the military, 442 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:49,200 Speaker 8: they have a thing called CQUC. CQUC stands for close 443 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,879 Speaker 8: quarter combat. So you might have and we've seen this 444 00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:54,920 Speaker 8: in Venezuela, and we saw this this a couple of 445 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:57,840 Speaker 8: weeks ago, whenever it was a week ago. You have 446 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,800 Speaker 8: air support and that that's sort of the global the 447 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 8: global stuff, right right, and that softens things up. But 448 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,840 Speaker 8: ultimately you're going to go in and find somebody. It 449 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:11,960 Speaker 8: is CQC. It is close quarter contact, and so this 450 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:15,960 Speaker 8: is a violent way obviously, but this is a personal thing. 451 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 1: You know. 452 00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:20,440 Speaker 8: Another military phrase is they used to say that we 453 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 8: manned the equipment. The military will tell you, we don't 454 00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:30,080 Speaker 8: mann the equipment. We equip the man It is still 455 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:34,200 Speaker 8: a human endeavor. This is still a human endeavor. 456 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:34,920 Speaker 4: Uh. 457 00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 8: The one on one, the contact that is made when 458 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:41,320 Speaker 8: a girl walks in and says, I'm about to keep 459 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:44,720 Speaker 8: my other appointment at planned parenthood, but I really do 460 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:48,199 Speaker 8: need to find out if I'm inside that ten week window. 461 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 8: And I know that you guys provide free ultrasounds, so 462 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:53,959 Speaker 8: I want my free ultrasound. I really would appreciate it. 463 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 8: And preborn centers say, of course, come on in and 464 00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:00,479 Speaker 8: have a seat, and let's get ready, and you give 465 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 8: a free ultrasound. And in that process of taking information 466 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:06,640 Speaker 8: that she believes will be valuable to her to go 467 00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:09,720 Speaker 8: and then get MiFi pristone and the other pill that 468 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:14,080 Speaker 8: goes with that for the chemical abortion, her heart has changed. 469 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 8: It is close quarter, is a contact, It is one 470 00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:22,360 Speaker 8: on one. She sees her baby for the very friend 471 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:26,040 Speaker 8: in that room. When that happens, there is a sonographer obviously, 472 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:30,199 Speaker 8: someone on the sonogram machine, the ultrasound machine, someone is 473 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:34,440 Speaker 8: running that. But I promise you, at that second, at 474 00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 8: that moment, there are only two people in that room, 475 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:42,520 Speaker 8: it's the mom and the baby that is that moment 476 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:48,439 Speaker 8: is really just them and everything changes after that soul 477 00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 8: to be a part of it today, it is so 478 00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 8: easy to do, and I really believe I've said a 479 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 8: million times it's ours to do. The world won't join 480 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:57,439 Speaker 8: us with this. They work against us. They don't just 481 00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:01,159 Speaker 8: not join us, they work against us. And something you 482 00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 8: said before for me about this time of year. These 483 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:08,440 Speaker 8: are women that are not abortion minded, they're abortion vulnerable, right. 484 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:10,960 Speaker 1: They need the truth. So let's give them the truth today. 485 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:14,200 Speaker 1: And that often comes in the picture that they first 486 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 1: and the first time they see their baby in that 487 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:19,080 Speaker 1: ultrasound picture eight three three eighty five zero baby is 488 00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:23,760 Speaker 1: the number twenty eight dollars provides an ultrasound probably saves 489 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:26,399 Speaker 1: a life. A ten pack is two hundred and eighty 490 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 1: If you want to do one a month, that would 491 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 1: be three hundred and thirty six over twelve months. But 492 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 1: twenty eight dollars a month less than a dollar a day, 493 00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 1: as Scott likes to say, is all it costs the 494 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,399 Speaker 1: change in your pocket. But yet you could save a 495 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:39,640 Speaker 1: life every month from that eight three three eight five 496 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 1: zero two two two nine eight three three, eight five zero, 497 00:27:42,320 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 1: twenty two to twenty nine. Please call right now. 498 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:06,360 Speaker 4: Here. 499 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:11,960 Speaker 7: He is from New York Kevin Kevin McCullough. 500 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:15,960 Speaker 1: All right, welcome. It is that Kevin Show, that kevinshow 501 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,680 Speaker 1: dot com for all things related. And you know that 502 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:21,640 Speaker 1: we take time out of almost every show to talk 503 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 1: about something practical. I love it because we get to 504 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:26,760 Speaker 1: set aside the newspaper for just a second and say, hey, 505 00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 1: how can we be a better parent or grandparent this week? 506 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:34,320 Speaker 1: One little principal attribute area of interest that we can 507 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 1: focus on. And Shelley Goldberg helps us with that every week. 508 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 1: She's the former parenting reporter for New York one. And 509 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,240 Speaker 1: if you're joining us from anywhere else in the country, 510 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 1: that is not a TV station that you can get 511 00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 1: anywhere except in New York City. But Shelley, you're around 512 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:51,160 Speaker 1: these parts. You're famous. Everybody says, oh, Shelley Goldberg. Yeah, 513 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:54,600 Speaker 1: I had no herd New York one. But I'm appreciative 514 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:56,280 Speaker 1: that you come on and that you help us with 515 00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:59,120 Speaker 1: these things. And I love today's topic. What are we 516 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:00,440 Speaker 1: going to talk about, Kevin? 517 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:03,560 Speaker 5: We're going to talk about how do you encourage a 518 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 5: love of reading with your kids, and the reason that 519 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:09,480 Speaker 5: reading and the love of reading is so important. Yes, 520 00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 5: it teaches us about life, It teaches us about ourselves 521 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 5: for sure. But if your kids feel connected to reading, 522 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 5: that warm embrace literally will get them through the toughest 523 00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:23,800 Speaker 5: times in your life. You know, when life is difficult, 524 00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,720 Speaker 5: when there's a setback, when they're lonely, If they can 525 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:29,600 Speaker 5: curl up with a book, that can be a major change, 526 00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 5: a major comfort. So we want to really develop kids 527 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:35,720 Speaker 5: who love to read. And I'm hoping that over Christmas 528 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 5: and over the New Year's Kevin, hopefully there was a 529 00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:40,960 Speaker 5: lot of reading in your house. Maybe you read a 530 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:44,640 Speaker 5: Christmas carol or the poem Twas the Night before Christmas. 531 00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 5: Maybe your kids god books as gifts, gave books as gifts. 532 00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:52,920 Speaker 5: But we're moving into twenty twenty six and I'm going 533 00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 5: to give you some great tips on how you can 534 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,080 Speaker 5: really encourage that with your kids. 535 00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:57,520 Speaker 1: All right. 536 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:02,000 Speaker 5: Number one, you want to create a space, a reading space, 537 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 5: mom and dad. It doesn't have to be a special room. 538 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:07,880 Speaker 5: It can be tense, it can be afford You want 539 00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 5: some cushions, you want a little corner, and maybe you 540 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 5: put up a plaque that says Jonathan's reading room. But 541 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 5: give them a space. It's great if the books are accessible, 542 00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:20,640 Speaker 5: you know, to their height. But again, even if you're 543 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 5: doing it with a comforter or a blanket, it's going 544 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 5: to be wonderful too. Go to the library often, mom 545 00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 5: and Dad. That's long a week if you can't, but 546 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:33,040 Speaker 5: a lot, not once a year. There's great things going 547 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 5: on in a library. There's story time, there's book clubs, 548 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:40,200 Speaker 5: there's the librarian who can recommend books. So many things happening, 549 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:43,200 Speaker 5: So put it on your radar and incorporate it into 550 00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 5: your life. Bookstores also, if you can afford it and 551 00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:48,720 Speaker 5: spend the money, go to the bookstores on a you know, 552 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:50,880 Speaker 5: on a Saturday, and just sprawl out on the floor 553 00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 5: and let your kids go through the books. And maybe 554 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:56,800 Speaker 5: you leave the bookstore with one new book. Three. Connect 555 00:30:56,880 --> 00:31:00,280 Speaker 5: what your kids are reading to the real world. Reading 556 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 5: about farm animals, Go visit a far mom and dad, 557 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:07,600 Speaker 5: they love firefighters. Go to the local fire department. But 558 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:10,040 Speaker 5: try to connect it to things that you see that 559 00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:13,800 Speaker 5: they're interested in. Be a great role model, Kevin. I 560 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 5: know that you are. I have no question, and you 561 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 5: want to have books in every room so that means 562 00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 5: cookbooks in the kitchen. It just the books are not 563 00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 5: just on the bookshelf. There's magazines, there's books, and yes 564 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:28,920 Speaker 5: they're organized, you know, they're not just all over the floor, 565 00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 5: but have books everywhere. You want to talk about what 566 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 5: you're reading. So maybe Kevin at dinner you say to Jonathan, 567 00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 5: do you know what I found out today? Do you 568 00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:41,760 Speaker 5: know what I found fascinating in this book I was 569 00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 5: reading or in this article I was reading. But you 570 00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 5: talk about what you're reading and how it's impacted your 571 00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 5: life and how it's made you think about something in 572 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 5: a whole new way. Six. Encourage relatives and friends to 573 00:31:56,480 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 5: give your kids books as gifts for their birthday, for 574 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 5: the holidays, but let them know that that would be 575 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:06,720 Speaker 5: a good thing, along with toys they might want to give. 576 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:11,520 Speaker 5: But certainly you welcome books for your kids. Seven. Read 577 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:16,680 Speaker 5: books in crazy places, Kevin, or unusual places or in 578 00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 5: an unusual way. That means a flashlight under the covers. 579 00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:25,120 Speaker 5: It means maybe a picnic. You're out on the picnic blanket. 580 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 5: A dress up is a character from the book. Have 581 00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 5: your kids act out the story or read to Grandma 582 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 5: on FaceTime, but try and do it in an interesting 583 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 5: and novel way. Eight, Let your kids choose, Kevin. You 584 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:43,960 Speaker 5: might want to encourage your kids to read the books 585 00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 5: that you loved as a child, and that's wonderful. But 586 00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:49,880 Speaker 5: if you see there that your kids love humorous books 587 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:54,040 Speaker 5: or books about space, go there. Let them move in 588 00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 5: the direction that's interesting to them. Nine. Read aloud together. 589 00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:01,360 Speaker 5: Even if your child is a great it's the connection. 590 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 5: It's the closeness. It's sitting next to you and feeling 591 00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 5: safe and warmth. So if your child is a great reader, 592 00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 5: you read one line of the book, they read the next, 593 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 5: or they read one page, you read the next. Those memories, 594 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 5: those are memories you made forever, and that connection is 595 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:20,959 Speaker 5: really building a child that's going to love, love, love reading. 596 00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:21,600 Speaker 4: Ten. 597 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:26,720 Speaker 5: If you can subscribe to age appropriate magazines, there's nothing 598 00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 5: more exciting for a child than to get mail that's 599 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:34,880 Speaker 5: addressed to them. Right right, Very powerful stuff, all right. 600 00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:39,240 Speaker 5: Eleven Think outside the box. Maybe your child enjoys reading 601 00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 5: the nutritional labels on the milk carton, or maybe what 602 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:45,600 Speaker 5: they love to read are the instructions, you know, the 603 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:48,960 Speaker 5: game instructions. But you might have a quirky kid that 604 00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 5: loves reading things that you know are more than, more 605 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:57,000 Speaker 5: than or in addition to a book, encourage it. Encourage storytelling. 606 00:33:57,320 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 5: So Kevin, sit around the table and you might say, 607 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:04,240 Speaker 5: tonight's my time, my turn, once upon a time, and 608 00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 5: then Kevin begin telling a short story. And then the 609 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:10,560 Speaker 5: next night it's your daughter's responsibility or her turn to 610 00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:14,320 Speaker 5: come up with a story. But encouraged storytelling around the table, 611 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:18,640 Speaker 5: because that really is part of the foundation that builds readers. 612 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:22,760 Speaker 5: Travel with books. They won't always rely on the tablet 613 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:26,360 Speaker 5: or the phone. Travel with books wherever you go, dentist's office, 614 00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:29,200 Speaker 5: doctor's office, you're going to another city, make sure you 615 00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 5: have books. And in the end, Kevin raising lifelong readers. 616 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:36,560 Speaker 5: So much of it is about the connection your child 617 00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:40,520 Speaker 5: is making to the person they're reading with. The memories 618 00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:42,960 Speaker 5: that are being they're like many memories that build up 619 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:46,760 Speaker 5: through the years. You know, they remember the giggles, the worms, 620 00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:48,880 Speaker 5: the silliness. 621 00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:48,360 Speaker 4: The. 622 00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:53,799 Speaker 5: Just how it made them feel. So there you go. 623 00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:57,200 Speaker 5: And by the way, with young children, you know, if 624 00:34:57,200 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 5: you have toddlers, they're going to ask you to reread 625 00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:02,320 Speaker 5: their favorite book book at least a thousand times to 626 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:06,920 Speaker 5: war because young children love that they love the repetition 627 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:08,480 Speaker 5: Kevin your thoughts. 628 00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:10,719 Speaker 1: And sometimes just change up some of the story just 629 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:15,359 Speaker 1: to see if they're paying attention. I'm kidding, No, we're 630 00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:18,640 Speaker 1: short on time, but great stuff. And I'm very blessed 631 00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:21,839 Speaker 1: because my kids, depending on the interest, they do, have 632 00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:24,719 Speaker 1: a love of reading, especially my daughter, she's almost insatiable, 633 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:27,399 Speaker 1: and she and her mom did have many of those 634 00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:30,280 Speaker 1: moments where they would sit and read together and sometimes 635 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:32,719 Speaker 1: even still do so. It's kind of kind of fun 636 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:36,279 Speaker 1: to watch that all take place. Shelley Goldberg. Always appreciate you. 637 00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:37,040 Speaker 1: Thank you so much. 638 00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:38,160 Speaker 5: Thank you, Kevin. 639 00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:41,319 Speaker 1: Kevin mccaullaugh coming back from Times Square, It's that Kevin show. 640 00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:41,719 Speaker 1: Don't go on. 641 00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:58,840 Speaker 9: Let's stick around for more than Kevin.

How are 651 00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:37,440 Speaker 1: babies saved via ultrasounds being given for free to women 652 00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:40,719 Speaker 1: who are in Christis pregnancy and are concerned and are 653 00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:45,360 Speaker 1: worried and are scared. They don't know what they're going 654 00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 1: to face in life if they follow through with one 655 00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:51,239 Speaker 1: decision or the other. And when they come into the 656 00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:56,160 Speaker 1: preborn centers, they are offered two things. One a welcoming year, 657 00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:02,040 Speaker 1: a loving and safe place for them to basically explain 658 00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:06,920 Speaker 1: what their situation is. And then they say, hey, let's 659 00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:11,120 Speaker 1: do a blood test, let's do an ultrasound, Let's get 660 00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:13,919 Speaker 1: you some information so that you know personally what you're 661 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:16,959 Speaker 1: doing in what's going on in your body. And what's 662 00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:19,720 Speaker 1: interesting is you need an ultrasound to get an abortion. 663 00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:23,239 Speaker 1: And so many of these abortion opportunities that are now 664 00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:26,240 Speaker 1: being presented are all done via drugs, but you still 665 00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:29,120 Speaker 1: have to have an ultrasound to prove that you're pregnant 666 00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:32,000 Speaker 1: to the pharmacist or to the doctor that you go 667 00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:36,520 Speaker 1: and you get the abortion drugs from. So in a way, 668 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:41,520 Speaker 1: the chemical abortions are increasing traffic to the preborn centers 669 00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:45,520 Speaker 1: where they need more ultrasounds for women who are low income, 670 00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:48,239 Speaker 1: and for twenty eight dollars you can provide one of those. 671 00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:51,200 Speaker 1: But let me tell you what happens when they come in. 672 00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:56,520 Speaker 1: When they come in, they may be very dedicated towards 673 00:37:56,600 --> 00:38:00,960 Speaker 1: aborting their child, but when they get their ultrasound, eighty 674 00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:04,040 Speaker 1: three percent of the time, between eight and nine out 675 00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:08,719 Speaker 1: of every ten that come into the center change their 676 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:13,279 Speaker 1: mind and say no, I was abortion minded. Now I'm 677 00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:15,400 Speaker 1: going to keep this baby. I'm going to try to 678 00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:17,920 Speaker 1: raise this baby, or I'm going to have this baby 679 00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:19,799 Speaker 1: and give it to a family for adoption. But I'm 680 00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:24,239 Speaker 1: going to choose life for this baby, not death. They 681 00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 1: can provide her up to two years worth of counseling 682 00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:34,440 Speaker 1: and support and mentoring and discipleship. Introduce her to Jesus, 683 00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:38,600 Speaker 1: give her skills at balancing checkbooks and making a budget 684 00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:41,200 Speaker 1: and planning menus and doing all the stuff that a 685 00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:43,960 Speaker 1: young mom might need help with learning how to do. 686 00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:48,600 Speaker 1: And she gets that in her life for up to 687 00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:51,920 Speaker 1: two full years after the baby is born, so two 688 00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:53,920 Speaker 1: years and nine months if she catches it right at 689 00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 1: the beginning of the pregnancy. But there's all kinds of 690 00:38:56,960 --> 00:39:03,160 Speaker 1: other things that the Preborn Centers helped supply formula, baby blankets, diapers, 691 00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:07,360 Speaker 1: other things that are really important to helping a newborn thrive. 692 00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:11,600 Speaker 1: And Preborn provides all of that at no cost to 693 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:15,160 Speaker 1: the person coming in if they can't afford it. If 694 00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:17,319 Speaker 1: they can't afford it, they provide all of it at 695 00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:20,840 Speaker 1: no cost because the people of Preborn just love children, 696 00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:23,200 Speaker 1: they love women, and they want to help. And so 697 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:25,759 Speaker 1: that's how that works. But your gift right now, two 698 00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:29,439 Speaker 1: hundred and eighty dollars would save ten babies lives. Ten 699 00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 1: children will likely be saved because you give a gift 700 00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:34,720 Speaker 1: of two hundred and eighty dollars, and we have twelve 701 00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:37,680 Speaker 1: hundred children that we're trying to save before the end 702 00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:39,840 Speaker 1: of January, and we're off to a little bit of 703 00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:42,439 Speaker 1: a slow start. But I know that if you think 704 00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:45,239 Speaker 1: about this and you think, hey, it's Right to Life month. 705 00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:47,839 Speaker 1: This is the month where they used to celebrate the 706 00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:50,560 Speaker 1: passage of Roe V. Wade and they would celebrate and 707 00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:53,440 Speaker 1: what they would call shout their abortions and all this 708 00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:56,120 Speaker 1: other stuff. Friends, that's all the negative. We can turn 709 00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:59,200 Speaker 1: all this to the positive.

But she's also very passionate about what's going 774 00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:38,280 Speaker 1: on to the citizens of Ukraine in the buildings, particularly 775 00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:43,680 Speaker 1: the residential buildings that the Putin Army continues to try 776 00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:48,080 Speaker 1: to target at times, and many Christians being persecuted, lots 777 00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:50,600 Speaker 1: of kids being kidnapped, there's just a lot of hurt 778 00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:53,800 Speaker 1: in Ukraine.

I want to get to this 781 00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:03,440 Speaker 1: topic though, and by what I'm talking about is this 782 00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:09,840 Speaker 1: this willingness to like curse at law enforcement and to 783 00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:12,960 Speaker 1: tell them that they don't have the right to do 784 00:44:13,040 --> 00:44:17,640 Speaker 1: the job that they are actually conscripted to do, that 785 00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:21,120 Speaker 1: they are actually hired and paid and contracted to do 786 00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:24,440 Speaker 1: any of these any of these law enforcement organizations. They're 787 00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:30,600 Speaker 1: all bonafide law enforcement, certified, credentialed, they have their badges, 788 00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:36,360 Speaker 1: and they're doing jobs lawfully. When they don't follow the law, 789 00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:40,000 Speaker 1: then they need to be arrested and they need to 790 00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:44,680 Speaker 1: be dealt with according to the law. But there is 791 00:44:44,719 --> 00:44:48,120 Speaker 1: this assumption that is going on in cities all across 792 00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:52,759 Speaker 1: this country that see the letters Ice and they're just 793 00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:55,919 Speaker 1: they're just going open season on these people.

Probably Trump's new army to attack 808 00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:51,960 Speaker 11: citizens of the United States. 809 00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:55,879 Speaker 1: Wait a second, hold on a second, ICE existed under 810 00:45:55,920 --> 00:45:59,839 Speaker 1: the Biden administration. It's not some new organization that Trump 811 00:45:59,880 --> 00:46:03,520 Speaker 1: came up with. Immigration and Customs enforcement is a department 812 00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:06,719 Speaker 1: of the federal government, as much as the FBI, as 813 00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:09,800 Speaker 1: much as the Secret Service, as much as the US Marshals. 814 00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:14,520 Speaker 1: They're all bonafide law enforcement. What are you talking about? 815 00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:16,400 Speaker 3: Did you hear what I said? 816 00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:16,879 Speaker 1: I did? 817 00:46:17,640 --> 00:46:20,360 Speaker 11: No law enforcement professional wears a mask. 818 00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:24,719 Speaker 1: They don't. What about if you have people that are 819 00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:27,880 Speaker 1: looking up the addresses of your law enforcement officers and 820 00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:31,600 Speaker 1: publishing them to gangs so that they can go and 821 00:46:31,640 --> 00:46:34,200 Speaker 1: be so that they can go and be slashed in 822 00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:36,560 Speaker 1: the middle of the night, like was actually happening in 823 00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:40,520 Speaker 1: La County when Ice was just doing its job. People 824 00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:44,880 Speaker 1: were doxing the officers and then there were death threats 825 00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:49,000 Speaker 1: and violence against the officers, et cetera. The wearing of 826 00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:51,960 Speaker 1: the mask became an issue of safety for the life 827 00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:56,719 Speaker 1: of the officer, not because they're fake officers, none. 828 00:46:58,480 --> 00:47:04,120 Speaker 11: None coming to our communities wearing a mask to commit crime. 829 00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:06,120 Speaker 10: Thank God for. 830 00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:09,600 Speaker 11: Our District Attorney Larry Krastna, who say he's going to 831 00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:12,279 Speaker 11: lock him up. And I'm saying now, we are not 832 00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:16,160 Speaker 11: gonna whisk you away for them to hide your identity 833 00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:19,800 Speaker 11: because when you do it there, you get arrested. 834 00:47:20,160 --> 00:47:20,399 Speaker 4: There. 835 00:47:20,840 --> 00:47:24,200 Speaker 1: I don't know what she's talking about. I literally the 836 00:47:24,239 --> 00:47:27,160 Speaker 1: person that sent me this video earlier today, I asked 837 00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:31,960 Speaker 1: them back, being somewhat facetious, what level of actual education 838 00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:35,200 Speaker 1: do you have to have to qualify for the job 839 00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:39,840 Speaker 1: of the police commissioner for the City and County of Phila. Evidently, 840 00:47:39,880 --> 00:47:44,160 Speaker 1: in Phila, you don't have to speak proper grammar, you 841 00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:47,560 Speaker 1: don't have to even really make sense sentence to sentence. 842 00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:52,480 Speaker 1: These ice officers aren't committing crimes. They're not coming into 843 00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:55,800 Speaker 1: communities and committing crime. What they are doing is getting 844 00:47:55,840 --> 00:47:59,480 Speaker 1: people who are committing crimes and that are not allowed 845 00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:02,040 Speaker 1: to be here and taking the people that have committed 846 00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:04,280 Speaker 1: the crimes that are not allowed to be here out 847 00:48:04,560 --> 00:48:06,560 Speaker 1: of the community that they're not allowed to be in. 848 00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:08,600 Speaker 1: Because if you come in and you're not allowed to 849 00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:11,680 Speaker 1: be here to begin with, that's one crime. It's a 850 00:48:11,719 --> 00:48:14,160 Speaker 1: low level crime, but it's a crime. And then if 851 00:48:14,200 --> 00:48:16,919 Speaker 1: you're already doing that crime and then you do other 852 00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:24,319 Speaker 1: crimes burglary, rape, murder, gang violence, whatever, then that's what 853 00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:29,919 Speaker 1: we're getting out of those communities. And that's what ICE 854 00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:32,440 Speaker 1: is there for. So I don't you're coming into our 855 00:48:32,440 --> 00:48:39,480 Speaker 1: community wearing a mask committing crimes. Now, ICE isn't committing crimes. 856 00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:42,520 Speaker 5: No risk away for them to hide you. 857 00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:45,839 Speaker 7: None of that here. None of that here. 858 00:48:47,560 --> 00:48:54,520 Speaker 11: Law enforcement professionals do not shoot at moving vehicles, not 859 00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:57,600 Speaker 11: saying fleeing because she wasn't fleeing, she was getting out 860 00:48:57,600 --> 00:48:58,120 Speaker 11: of the way. 861 00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:02,680 Speaker 1: Oh okay, So you're actually saying, because I think you 862 00:49:02,760 --> 00:49:05,799 Speaker 1: just said this, that if they are fleeing, that they 863 00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:11,360 Speaker 1: can shoot those vehicles as they are driving away. I 864 00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:15,280 Speaker 1: don't know where she went to police school, police academy. 865 00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:17,560 Speaker 1: Maybe she was in one of the movies. I don't know. 866 00:49:17,960 --> 00:49:22,640 Speaker 1: But here's the thing. If the car is attempting to 867 00:49:22,719 --> 00:49:26,040 Speaker 1: be used as a weapon to run over an officer, 868 00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:31,319 Speaker 1: and you've been lawfully told to stop the vehicle and 869 00:49:31,360 --> 00:49:35,840 Speaker 1: to get out of the vehicle, you're the one that 870 00:49:35,960 --> 00:49:43,680 Speaker 1: is risking your life by choosing violence over obedience. You 871 00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:49,120 Speaker 1: choose violence against a lawful authority. That's going to end 872 00:49:49,120 --> 00:49:53,279 Speaker 1: bad almost always for you, sometimes bad for a lot 873 00:49:53,320 --> 00:49:58,000 Speaker 1: of other people involved. But why would you choose violence 874 00:49:58,719 --> 00:50:03,839 Speaker 1: when it's a lawful order, ma'am stop the vehicle, get 875 00:50:03,880 --> 00:50:08,720 Speaker 1: out of the car. By doing either one of those things, 876 00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:12,280 Speaker 1: you're not violating her conscience, you're not taking away her rights, 877 00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:17,560 Speaker 1: You're not doing anything. Those are lawful orders and lawful 878 00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:22,240 Speaker 1: instruction from law enforcement are things that we need to 879 00:50:22,239 --> 00:50:27,720 Speaker 1: be lawfully minded of. There's some thoughts from the police 880 00:50:27,760 --> 00:50:32,640 Speaker 1: chief in Phila, the county and city of Phila, and 881 00:50:32,719 --> 00:50:33,840 Speaker 1: Kevin mccallaugh stay with us. 882 00:50:33,840 --> 00:50:54,680 Speaker 10: It's that Kevin ship. 883 00:50:49,040 --> 00:50:49,160 Speaker 2: Here. 884 00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:55,240 Speaker 7: He is from New York.

I am always very very encouraged by 898 00:51:32,560 --> 00:51:35,399 Speaker 1: the work of the Independent Women's Forum because these are 899 00:51:35,640 --> 00:51:40,040 Speaker 1: common sense, grounded women that have high levels of expertise 900 00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:42,600 Speaker 1: and a whole bunch of areas, and then they lend 901 00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:45,440 Speaker 1: that to the cause of actual women. They're not like 902 00:51:45,480 --> 00:51:47,880 Speaker 1: some of these other women's organizations that really are just 903 00:51:48,040 --> 00:51:52,000 Speaker 1: shells for the abortion industry. This group actually studies and 904 00:51:52,040 --> 00:51:54,800 Speaker 1: details and works very hard for the security and benefit 905 00:51:54,800 --> 00:51:57,640 Speaker 1: of women everywhere, including those of you that don't agree 906 00:51:57,640 --> 00:52:01,320 Speaker 1: with abortion. So I'm always very pleased with IWF. Meghan 907 00:52:01,360 --> 00:52:04,719 Speaker 1: Mobs is back with US, former military member. She's got 908 00:52:04,760 --> 00:52:07,560 Speaker 1: a lot of expertise and a lot of different areas, 909 00:52:07,560 --> 00:52:10,160 Speaker 1: and she comments frequently for US on foreign policy. Megan, 910 00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:11,759 Speaker 1: it's good to see you. I hope you had a 911 00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:12,440 Speaker 1: good holiday. 912 00:52:12,560 --> 00:52:13,080 Speaker 7: Thanks Kevin. 913 00:52:13,120 --> 00:52:14,680 Speaker 12: It's such a pleasure to be with you. I had 914 00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:15,680 Speaker 12: a wonderful holiday. 915 00:52:15,680 --> 00:52:16,320 Speaker 7: How is yours. 916 00:52:16,520 --> 00:52:19,040 Speaker 1: We did all of our traveling before the weekend of Christmas, 917 00:52:19,120 --> 00:52:22,120 Speaker 1: and then from that Monday through I guess the day 918 00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:26,600 Speaker 1: after New Year's we were flannel pajama wearing. Hermits stayed 919 00:52:26,600 --> 00:52:28,399 Speaker 1: in the house. But it was a lot of fun. 920 00:52:28,880 --> 00:52:31,319 Speaker 1: There's a lot I could talk to you about, but 921 00:52:32,239 --> 00:52:36,320 Speaker 1: you've sprung something on me when we connected. You're reporting 922 00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:39,960 Speaker 1: to us live from Ukraine. I know that this has 923 00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:42,520 Speaker 1: been a big passion for you, especially over the last 924 00:52:42,520 --> 00:52:45,480 Speaker 1: couple of years. And if you don't follow Meghan on Instagram, 925 00:52:45,520 --> 00:52:47,399 Speaker 1: you should. She's got a lot of great things there. 926 00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:50,640 Speaker 1: Tell us what you're doing and kind of the assessment 927 00:52:50,680 --> 00:52:52,759 Speaker 1: of why you're there and what the outcome, what you 928 00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:53,640 Speaker 1: hope the outcome will be. 929 00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:56,640 Speaker 12: So unfortunately, things are quite kindashrathiic here right now with 930 00:52:56,680 --> 00:52:58,719 Speaker 12: regard to the power situation. I was telling you just 931 00:52:58,800 --> 00:53:01,239 Speaker 12: moments before, I didn't have any power prior to us 932 00:53:01,440 --> 00:53:03,719 Speaker 12: joining me, so they came on right before I was 933 00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:06,640 Speaker 12: supposed to talk to you. It's quite catastrophic. Last night 934 00:53:06,680 --> 00:53:10,160 Speaker 12: there was a major attack by Russia again against civilian infrastructure, 935 00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:12,879 Speaker 12: against the energy infrastructure here in Ukraine. And there are 936 00:53:12,880 --> 00:53:15,839 Speaker 12: many cities without any power whatsoever. So I'm lucky right 937 00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:18,000 Speaker 12: now I have power. I'll probably have it for a 938 00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:20,040 Speaker 12: couple of hours. But there are some major cities like 939 00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:23,680 Speaker 12: a Nepro that have no power, which means there's no heat. 940 00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:26,040 Speaker 12: And I will tell you it is freezing here, Kevin. 941 00:53:26,080 --> 00:53:28,280 Speaker 12: It is a real feel of two. So we're talking 942 00:53:28,280 --> 00:53:31,920 Speaker 12: about absolutely a humanitarian crisis occurring in real time. 943 00:53:32,400 --> 00:53:34,840 Speaker 1: Obviously, there has been a lot of going to the 944 00:53:34,920 --> 00:53:38,719 Speaker 1: table and walking away from the table. And I've never 945 00:53:38,760 --> 00:53:42,239 Speaker 1: seen President Trump really be as frustrated with any circumstance 946 00:53:42,719 --> 00:53:47,200 Speaker 1: he's faced in government the way the Ukraine issue has 947 00:53:48,320 --> 00:53:53,480 Speaker 1: dogged his administration. Carrying over from the last one. It 948 00:53:53,600 --> 00:53:57,560 Speaker 1: seems as though there's not going to be just a 949 00:53:58,120 --> 00:54:00,959 Speaker 1: peace settlement that the two sides can come to anytime soon. 950 00:54:01,400 --> 00:54:05,240 Speaker 1: What are the sticking points what are the real obstructions 951 00:54:05,280 --> 00:54:08,920 Speaker 1: to ending this conflict and getting both countries kind of 952 00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:11,200 Speaker 1: back to normal. Although Ukraine I think will have a 953 00:54:11,200 --> 00:54:14,640 Speaker 1: lot of help from the Western powers to do that. 954 00:54:14,719 --> 00:54:16,239 Speaker 1: I think the US and a lot of others will 955 00:54:16,280 --> 00:54:18,560 Speaker 1: come in with a lot of help and aid and 956 00:54:18,680 --> 00:54:23,400 Speaker 1: commercial alliances and stuff like that. But what's preventing ending 957 00:54:23,520 --> 00:54:23,959 Speaker 1: this war? 958 00:54:24,400 --> 00:54:27,120 Speaker 12: Quite frankly, it's putin. I mean, he has very clearly 959 00:54:27,160 --> 00:54:30,359 Speaker 12: said that. He has repeatedly stated his maximalist gains. And 960 00:54:30,360 --> 00:54:32,520 Speaker 12: what I mean by that it's not enough for this 961 00:54:32,600 --> 00:54:34,560 Speaker 12: war to kind of freeze on the current line of 962 00:54:34,600 --> 00:54:38,000 Speaker 12: contact or the fighting currently is. He has repeatedly stated 963 00:54:38,040 --> 00:54:40,719 Speaker 12: he wants all of the Donbas, which is too oblast 964 00:54:40,760 --> 00:54:44,000 Speaker 12: so think of like states almost Luhanskin, Denesk. But that's 965 00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:46,680 Speaker 12: not enough for him. He also wants Zaparijia, and he 966 00:54:46,719 --> 00:54:48,759 Speaker 12: wants Hirsan, and then he wants to keep what he 967 00:54:48,800 --> 00:54:51,279 Speaker 12: has in Harky. So if we think about that as Americans, 968 00:54:51,280 --> 00:54:54,399 Speaker 12: he wants multiple states to belong to him, even though 969 00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:56,640 Speaker 12: he hasn't won them on the battlefield, and so what 970 00:54:56,680 --> 00:54:59,640 Speaker 12: he's looking to do is just protract this process, continue 971 00:54:59,680 --> 00:55:02,200 Speaker 12: to try to attrit the Ukrainian army so he can 972 00:55:02,239 --> 00:55:04,520 Speaker 12: gobble up more land and increase his leverage at the 973 00:55:04,520 --> 00:55:07,160 Speaker 12: negotiating table. Really, right now, what we've seen is the 974 00:55:07,239 --> 00:55:09,760 Speaker 12: Ukrainians have been willing to make quite a large number 975 00:55:09,760 --> 00:55:12,440 Speaker 12: of concessions and come to the table repeatedly and say 976 00:55:13,160 --> 00:55:15,799 Speaker 12: we're not the problem here. We're willing to say yes. 977 00:55:16,120 --> 00:55:18,520 Speaker 12: We just need you to get Russia to say yes. 978 00:55:18,520 --> 00:55:19,279 Speaker 5: And they just do not. 979 00:55:19,239 --> 00:55:21,720 Speaker 1: Think most of the USS knows what you just said, 980 00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:26,160 Speaker 1: because I think the media here primarily says it's just 981 00:55:26,239 --> 00:55:31,040 Speaker 1: over the first two states that you mentioned. All that 982 00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:33,719 Speaker 1: extra area. By the way, do those happen to be 983 00:55:33,800 --> 00:55:36,319 Speaker 1: oil bearing areas that he's wanting to keep. 984 00:55:36,680 --> 00:55:38,919 Speaker 12: So they have lots of rare earth minerals and lots 985 00:55:38,920 --> 00:55:41,000 Speaker 12: of energy. So one of the other sticking points is 986 00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:44,440 Speaker 12: a Zaparagian nuclear power plant. Russia is in control of 987 00:55:44,440 --> 00:55:46,960 Speaker 12: that power plant. They want to retain control. So that's 988 00:55:47,040 --> 00:55:50,000 Speaker 12: quite a large commodity that belongs to the Ukrainian people 989 00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:52,880 Speaker 12: and to Ukraine, and so people I think we are 990 00:55:52,920 --> 00:55:54,919 Speaker 12: talking a lot about the Dombos, which is those two 991 00:55:54,960 --> 00:55:58,880 Speaker 12: states I mentioned earlier, but in the Russian constitution they 992 00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:01,920 Speaker 12: recognize heirs and Zaparija as being Russian. So if we 993 00:56:01,920 --> 00:56:04,120 Speaker 12: think he's going to stop there, we just have to 994 00:56:04,160 --> 00:56:07,480 Speaker 12: look back to Obama when Obama was convinced by Putin, 995 00:56:07,560 --> 00:56:10,759 Speaker 12: then if we just gave Crimina to Russia, Russia would 996 00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:13,359 Speaker 12: be satisfied. Clearly they aren't, and they're going to keep 997 00:56:13,360 --> 00:56:14,120 Speaker 12: pushing forward. 998 00:56:14,560 --> 00:56:14,759 Speaker 4: Well. 999 00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:16,960 Speaker 1: From the beginning, there have been people that have been 1000 00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:20,799 Speaker 1: concerned that if he won in Ukraine that then he 1001 00:56:20,840 --> 00:56:24,120 Speaker 1: would start working on some of the other Eastern Bloc 1002 00:56:24,120 --> 00:56:28,200 Speaker 1: countries former Russia Russian entities, or I should say former 1003 00:56:28,360 --> 00:56:30,840 Speaker 1: ussr entities. I don't know that you know Poland or 1004 00:56:30,840 --> 00:56:34,440 Speaker 1: any of those countries think of themselves as ethnically Russian 1005 00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:36,840 Speaker 1: at any time, but they were part of the Soviet Union. 1006 00:56:37,520 --> 00:56:41,640 Speaker 1: But I don't sense that he's like I think he's 1007 00:56:41,760 --> 00:56:43,160 Speaker 1: just going to try to take as much as he 1008 00:56:43,200 --> 00:56:44,600 Speaker 1: can as long as he's allowed to. 1009 00:56:45,040 --> 00:56:45,920 Speaker 5: And it's exactly right. 1010 00:56:45,960 --> 00:56:47,799 Speaker 12: And we see that with dictators or those that have 1011 00:56:47,920 --> 00:56:51,160 Speaker 12: expansionist intent. What they want to do is just exactly 1012 00:56:51,200 --> 00:56:53,080 Speaker 12: what you said, take as much as possible. We had 1013 00:56:53,120 --> 00:56:54,680 Speaker 12: a children's book, I don't know if you ever read this, 1014 00:56:54,760 --> 00:56:57,120 Speaker 12: Kevin called if you give a mouse a cookie, yes, 1015 00:56:57,120 --> 00:56:58,760 Speaker 12: and then they're going to want a glass of milk. 1016 00:56:59,040 --> 00:57:01,880 Speaker 12: And that's how and yeah, same, I love it. But 1017 00:57:01,920 --> 00:57:04,839 Speaker 12: it's a perfect analogy. If you give a little, they're 1018 00:57:04,840 --> 00:57:06,759 Speaker 12: going to take a lot. And that is why, while 1019 00:57:06,760 --> 00:57:09,040 Speaker 12: I will say the balance of power has begun to 1020 00:57:09,040 --> 00:57:11,520 Speaker 12: shift a little bit here, seeing what's happened in Venezuela, 1021 00:57:11,719 --> 00:57:14,359 Speaker 12: what's going on in Iran, all of these are interconnected, 1022 00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:17,720 Speaker 12: and the president, President Trump is pretty aggressively going after 1023 00:57:17,840 --> 00:57:19,760 Speaker 12: some of these proxies of Russia right now. And I 1024 00:57:19,800 --> 00:57:22,040 Speaker 12: do think we're beginning to see a shift a little 1025 00:57:22,080 --> 00:57:25,280 Speaker 12: bit here because even though Russia wants to gain all 1026 00:57:25,320 --> 00:57:28,040 Speaker 12: of this power, they currently don't have the capability. It 1027 00:57:28,040 --> 00:57:31,160 Speaker 12: doesn't mean we should underestimate them, but they are increasingly 1028 00:57:31,200 --> 00:57:32,000 Speaker 12: being diminished. 1029 00:57:32,400 --> 00:57:34,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, and he's playing the long game because he just 1030 00:57:34,560 --> 00:57:36,920 Speaker 1: has millions of cunscripts that he can put into the 1031 00:57:36,960 --> 00:57:39,280 Speaker 1: machine in the Hamburger meet and he doesn't have to 1032 00:57:39,320 --> 00:57:42,680 Speaker 1: care about it. That is not that is not, by 1033 00:57:42,720 --> 00:57:46,320 Speaker 1: the way, the same for Zelenski on the other side, 1034 00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:50,600 Speaker 1: much more limited resources and yet being able to hold 1035 00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:53,080 Speaker 1: his own and at times take back places that Putin 1036 00:57:53,120 --> 00:57:56,400 Speaker 1: had pushed into there's so much more I want to 1037 00:57:56,400 --> 00:57:58,880 Speaker 1: talk to you about this, And you just brought up 1038 00:57:58,920 --> 00:58:03,480 Speaker 1: a very interesting point point in that with the operations 1039 00:58:03,520 --> 00:58:06,600 Speaker 1: in Iran and in Venezuela, and I have to kind 1040 00:58:06,600 --> 00:58:10,040 Speaker 1: of brag on the president here. These were not things 1041 00:58:10,240 --> 00:58:13,480 Speaker 1: that I think most of the world saw coming, and 1042 00:58:13,520 --> 00:58:17,640 Speaker 1: they were done before we woke up. The bombing of 1043 00:58:17,680 --> 00:58:20,000 Speaker 1: the Irani nuclear stuff was all done by the time 1044 00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:22,640 Speaker 1: the US woke up the next morning. Same with Venezuela. 1045 00:58:22,960 --> 00:58:25,760 Speaker 1: You wake up to the news that he's been taken. 1046 00:58:26,280 --> 00:58:30,880 Speaker 1: Does that send a message to Jijinping, to Vladimir Putin, 1047 00:58:30,960 --> 00:58:34,760 Speaker 1: to the Malas who seemed to still be not getting 1048 00:58:34,760 --> 00:58:38,760 Speaker 1: the message in Iran? Even North Korea? Do people take 1049 00:58:38,800 --> 00:58:41,240 Speaker 1: a look at that. Are dictators so far removed from 1050 00:58:41,280 --> 00:58:44,080 Speaker 1: reality that they don't really see what Trump did as 1051 00:58:44,120 --> 00:58:45,400 Speaker 1: being significant? 1052 00:58:45,680 --> 00:58:47,720 Speaker 12: No, you only have to look at their screaming on 1053 00:58:47,760 --> 00:58:50,960 Speaker 12: the internet to realize they're terrified. What we just did 1054 00:58:51,120 --> 00:58:54,480 Speaker 12: was substantially project American power. I could not be more 1055 00:58:54,600 --> 00:58:57,640 Speaker 12: chuffed at the President for what he just did, obviously 1056 00:58:57,640 --> 00:59:00,240 Speaker 12: giving the opportunity for freedom to the Venezuelan people. But 1057 00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:03,000 Speaker 12: Maduro was a narco dictator, not only that he was 1058 00:59:03,080 --> 00:59:06,560 Speaker 12: truly impinging upon our safety and freedom here in the 1059 00:59:06,600 --> 00:59:08,840 Speaker 12: Western hemisphere, and so it was imperative that we removed 1060 00:59:08,880 --> 00:59:12,320 Speaker 12: him from power. That couple then with seizing those ships 1061 00:59:12,360 --> 00:59:15,720 Speaker 12: that had been reflagged as Russian born vessels, was clearly 1062 00:59:15,760 --> 00:59:18,360 Speaker 12: indicating that the president is willing to take these hard risks, 1063 00:59:18,640 --> 00:59:21,240 Speaker 12: and we saw them deliver. He's been highly successful at 1064 00:59:21,280 --> 00:59:22,880 Speaker 12: all of this, and so any of his detractors that 1065 00:59:22,960 --> 00:59:25,840 Speaker 12: talk about his unwillingness to use American power should take 1066 00:59:25,920 --> 00:59:27,920 Speaker 12: just a look at this last week to realize they 1067 00:59:27,920 --> 00:59:28,600 Speaker 12: are very wrong. 1068 00:59:28,960 --> 00:59:33,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. No, and I think that sadly, the dictators are 1069 00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:37,160 Speaker 1: going to have to keep learning this lesson consistently because 1070 00:59:37,240 --> 00:59:40,040 Speaker 1: there's a lot of horrible stuff in the world. I'm 1071 00:59:40,440 --> 00:59:42,520 Speaker 1: just I've wrote a piece about this at town Hall 1072 00:59:42,560 --> 00:59:45,880 Speaker 1: this week, but I'm just so amazed at how the 1073 00:59:46,040 --> 00:59:49,880 Speaker 1: administration has kept laser focus both on the multiple areas 1074 00:59:49,920 --> 00:59:52,440 Speaker 1: of foreign policy that are kind of tricky right now 1075 00:59:52,600 --> 00:59:56,800 Speaker 1: and domestic policy simultaneously. It's like every cabinet member, every 1076 00:59:56,800 --> 01:00:00,360 Speaker 1: department is on duty twenty four to seven and getting 1077 01:00:00,400 --> 01:00:03,320 Speaker 1: the job done. I want my money back from previous 1078 01:00:03,360 --> 01:00:06,960 Speaker 1: administrations that like slept on the job clearly, but. 1079 01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:09,320 Speaker 12: That's exactly right their laser focus. And this is where 1080 01:00:09,360 --> 01:00:11,760 Speaker 12: I will say I'm also something that happened while we 1081 01:00:11,800 --> 01:00:15,400 Speaker 12: were almost sleeping last night, where we just retracted funding 1082 01:00:15,520 --> 01:00:19,840 Speaker 12: from sixty six international organizations that were not benefiting the 1083 01:00:19,880 --> 01:00:24,040 Speaker 12: American people. We are streamlining our focus. We're concentrated. That's 1084 01:00:24,080 --> 01:00:26,360 Speaker 12: exactly where we want our government to be because the 1085 01:00:26,480 --> 01:00:29,080 Speaker 12: number one responsibility of government is to protect its people, 1086 01:00:29,240 --> 01:00:30,520 Speaker 12: and that's where I want us to be. And the 1087 01:00:30,520 --> 01:00:33,920 Speaker 12: President also just announced a major increase in our defense budget, 1088 01:00:33,960 --> 01:00:36,640 Speaker 12: going from one trillion to one point five trillion dollars 1089 01:00:36,920 --> 01:00:39,960 Speaker 12: talking about jijiping, that is the signal that he is 1090 01:00:39,960 --> 01:00:40,920 Speaker 12: going to be paying attention to. 1091 01:00:41,120 --> 01:00:43,320 Speaker 1: Final twenty seconds, how long are you in Ukraine? 1092 01:00:43,360 --> 01:00:43,560 Speaker 4: Four? 1093 01:00:43,600 --> 01:00:45,040 Speaker 1: And what do you hope to accomplish there? 1094 01:00:45,440 --> 01:00:46,040 Speaker 7: Just next week? 1095 01:00:46,080 --> 01:00:47,800 Speaker 12: And as you know, I feel so strongly about the 1096 01:00:47,880 --> 01:00:50,680 Speaker 12: Ukrainian people. It's never been for me about the Ukrainian government. 1097 01:00:50,840 --> 01:00:53,160 Speaker 12: Some of this is just bearing witness to what they're experiencing. 1098 01:00:53,360 --> 01:00:55,720 Speaker 12: We also do humanitarian aid work here and making sure 1099 01:00:55,760 --> 01:00:58,000 Speaker 12: that they receive the resources they need because one thing 1100 01:00:58,040 --> 01:01:00,480 Speaker 12: I cannot overstate is the bravery of the fighting on 1101 01:01:00,520 --> 01:01:00,880 Speaker 12: the front. 1102 01:01:01,040 --> 01:01:01,440 Speaker 7: You said it. 1103 01:01:01,440 --> 01:01:02,920 Speaker 12: I'm a former military officer. 1104 01:01:03,360 --> 01:01:03,560 Speaker 5: Man. 1105 01:01:03,680 --> 01:01:04,800 Speaker 12: Can these men and women fight? 1106 01:01:05,080 --> 01:01:08,080 Speaker 1: They've been impressive thus far at holding the huge Russian 1107 01:01:08,120 --> 01:01:11,640 Speaker 1: machine at Bay Megan Mobs. Always appreciate all your hard 1108 01:01:11,640 --> 01:01:14,880 Speaker 1: work and have safe travels back home next week, and 1109 01:01:15,640 --> 01:01:18,960 Speaker 1: give our support and love to those who are being 1110 01:01:18,960 --> 01:01:20,920 Speaker 1: oppressed right now.

So you have hotels, 1189 01:05:09,040 --> 01:05:12,840 Speaker 1: Broadway Shows, Lincoln Center, Carnegie all jumping in saying, hey, 1190 01:05:12,880 --> 01:05:15,080 Speaker 1: we want to bring people here too. And I don't 1191 01:05:15,120 --> 01:05:17,920 Speaker 1: know what all is playing everywhere. I understand, if you 1192 01:05:18,040 --> 01:05:23,240 Speaker 1: live in Tupelo or Birmingham or you know, Jacksonville, you're 1193 01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:25,960 Speaker 1: not used to seeing the prices that we pay for 1194 01:05:26,000 --> 01:05:28,919 Speaker 1: things up here. And so even Broadway tickets like two 1195 01:05:28,960 --> 01:05:32,200 Speaker 1: for one, that's a huge savings for someone that's doing 1196 01:05:32,200 --> 01:05:34,000 Speaker 1: New York City on a budget.

It's 1206 01:05:56,760 --> 01:05:58,480 Speaker 13: a wonderful way to see the city. 1207 01:05:58,520 --> 01:06:00,000 Speaker 5: It's just a beautiful time. 1208 01:06:00,240 --> 01:06:03,000 Speaker 13: And hey, look for folks that are from north of 1209 01:06:03,040 --> 01:06:06,160 Speaker 13: New York or you know, the Midwest, our temperatures are 1210 01:06:06,200 --> 01:06:08,760 Speaker 13: probably not as bad as they're used to. 1211 01:06:08,840 --> 01:06:09,480 Speaker 5: The folks from. 1212 01:06:09,400 --> 01:06:11,880 Speaker 13: Jacksonville, I don't know, they better bundle a coat, or 1213 01:06:11,920 --> 01:06:13,920 Speaker 13: you can go to Bloomingdale's or Macy's and buy a 1214 01:06:13,960 --> 01:06:16,240 Speaker 13: code probably for half off. How's that you can just 1215 01:06:16,520 --> 01:06:18,840 Speaker 13: show up in your short sleeves and we'll dress you. 1216 01:06:19,080 --> 01:06:21,760 Speaker 1: Yeah.

She's a constant billboard for all 1218 01:06:25,920 --> 01:06:28,400 Speaker 1: good things that are going on in the city. But Christine, 1219 01:06:28,440 --> 01:06:31,080 Speaker 1: in all seriousness, if someone was thinking about maybe coming 1220 01:06:31,120 --> 01:06:33,200 Speaker 1: for the first time and they're like, Okay, i've got 1221 01:06:33,200 --> 01:06:37,960 Speaker 1: limited budget Broadway show, probably want family friendly fair to 1222 01:06:38,240 --> 01:06:40,520 Speaker 1: you not be embarrassed by if my kids are with me, 1223 01:06:40,960 --> 01:06:44,200 Speaker 1: what is on Broadway right now that you would say 1224 01:06:44,280 --> 01:06:45,920 Speaker 1: that's the show you got to go get a ticket for. 1225 01:06:46,240 --> 01:06:48,720 Speaker 13: Well, of course, any show by Disney. We have The 1226 01:06:48,800 --> 01:06:50,200 Speaker 13: Lion King, we have a Laddin. 1227 01:06:51,160 --> 01:06:52,360 Speaker 7: You also have. 1228 01:06:53,680 --> 01:06:56,600 Speaker 13: Harry Potter, which I know you love, and Harry Potter Is. 1229 01:06:56,680 --> 01:06:59,040 Speaker 13: It used to be a two day show, but now 1230 01:06:59,040 --> 01:07:02,040 Speaker 13: it's just one day for three hours, so it's doable. 1231 01:07:02,480 --> 01:07:05,560 Speaker 13: But those are three great shows. There's The Great Gatsby, 1232 01:07:05,680 --> 01:07:08,280 Speaker 13: which may skew a little bit for like junior high 1233 01:07:08,280 --> 01:07:12,480 Speaker 13: in high school because that's still required reading for American standard, 1234 01:07:12,760 --> 01:07:15,520 Speaker 13: you know, high schools. So go check that out. That 1235 01:07:15,560 --> 01:07:18,120 Speaker 13: really is a lot of fun. But you know, most 1236 01:07:18,160 --> 01:07:20,800 Speaker 13: of the shows will have you know, they'll tell you 1237 01:07:20,880 --> 01:07:25,120 Speaker 13: if it's really for adult audiences or if it's kid friendly, 1238 01:07:25,200 --> 01:07:26,280 Speaker 13: But I would recommend it. 1239 01:07:26,400 --> 01:07:29,600 Speaker 1: And everybody across the country, especially that listens to my show, 1240 01:07:29,720 --> 01:07:33,040 Speaker 1: knows that we've had a change in the mayoralty and 1241 01:07:33,400 --> 01:07:36,000 Speaker 1: other things here, and there may be some people asking, 1242 01:07:36,080 --> 01:07:38,920 Speaker 1: you know, has that had any impact on safety or 1243 01:07:38,920 --> 01:07:41,520 Speaker 1: police presence or anything like that. You and I both 1244 01:07:41,560 --> 01:07:44,040 Speaker 1: check in with someone named Tom Harris at Times Square 1245 01:07:44,040 --> 01:07:47,000 Speaker 1: Alliance on a regular basis. The news is all good 1246 01:07:47,000 --> 01:07:47,280 Speaker 1: on that. 1247 01:07:47,240 --> 01:07:48,320 Speaker 7: Front, thankfully. 1248 01:07:48,720 --> 01:07:53,480 Speaker 13: The new mayor has decided to keep the police commissioner 1249 01:07:53,560 --> 01:07:57,560 Speaker 13: under the Adams administration, Jessica Tish, And in fact, they 1250 01:07:57,680 --> 01:08:01,720 Speaker 13: just had a press conference this week touting the lowest 1251 01:08:01,800 --> 01:08:05,280 Speaker 13: levels of crime since prior to the pandemic. So this 1252 01:08:05,400 --> 01:08:07,680 Speaker 13: is work that was done over the last four years 1253 01:08:07,720 --> 01:08:09,720 Speaker 13: and it is at the best level now as far 1254 01:08:09,720 --> 01:08:12,440 Speaker 13: as crime reduction. So the fact that he kept the 1255 01:08:12,480 --> 01:08:16,479 Speaker 13: police commissioner, Jessica Tish, is a very good sign that 1256 01:08:16,880 --> 01:08:19,000 Speaker 13: things will continue in the right direction. 1257 01:08:19,439 --> 01:08:22,600 Speaker 1: All right, Christine Nicholas, always appreciate you.

The 1295 01:10:22,760 --> 01:10:24,880 Speaker 1: fact that you survived it is even more to be 1296 01:10:24,920 --> 01:10:28,799 Speaker 1: commended returning home because we did that this last summer 1297 01:10:29,040 --> 01:10:30,640 Speaker 1: for a little while, not as long as you.

I 1299 01:10:33,439 --> 01:10:36,799 Speaker 1: think it's one of the best educations you can give them. Yeah, 1300 01:10:37,280 --> 01:10:42,200 Speaker 1: speaking of education, my leering growing up didn't really work 1301 01:10:42,240 --> 01:10:44,679 Speaker 1: too well, I guess because I've been misspelling the word 1302 01:10:44,720 --> 01:10:48,679 Speaker 1: leering my entire life. But it's on daycare centers all 1303 01:10:48,760 --> 01:10:52,680 Speaker 1: over Minneapolis, Minnesota as learing centers, which, if you think 1304 01:10:52,720 --> 01:10:55,519 Speaker 1: about it, if kids are there and it's a learing center, 1305 01:10:55,680 --> 01:10:57,800 Speaker 1: that's kind of creepy in and of itself, but not 1306 01:10:57,920 --> 01:11:01,400 Speaker 1: creepy enough to prevent nine billion dollars from being given 1307 01:11:01,439 --> 01:11:06,880 Speaker 1: to these daycare centers by evidently the most bumbling, stumbling, 1308 01:11:07,520 --> 01:11:13,080 Speaker 1: stupefying governor and a g and congressional representatives that must 1309 01:11:13,120 --> 01:11:13,920 Speaker 1: be in existence. 1310 01:11:14,280 --> 01:11:17,240 Speaker 2: So it's it's really wild. I mean, this is the 1311 01:11:17,360 --> 01:11:21,040 Speaker 2: this is the road to road to down under that 1312 01:11:21,240 --> 01:11:23,360 Speaker 2: is lined with good intentions so that you're seeing it, 1313 01:11:23,640 --> 01:11:27,679 Speaker 2: you know, in practice, because these people just threw money 1314 01:11:27,680 --> 01:11:31,080 Speaker 2: at people who they thought like, oh, they're poor. Meanwhile 1315 01:11:31,120 --> 01:11:34,960 Speaker 2: they're taking complete advantage of Americans and the generosity of 1316 01:11:34,960 --> 01:11:39,240 Speaker 2: the American people. There was an incredible cross examination that 1317 01:11:39,240 --> 01:11:40,800 Speaker 2: would happen on the Hill a few days ago with 1318 01:11:40,880 --> 01:11:45,160 Speaker 2: Representative Brandon Gill and he was just asking questions of 1319 01:11:46,000 --> 01:11:50,600 Speaker 2: a witness who, you know, supposed that Somali immigration is 1320 01:11:50,640 --> 01:11:53,480 Speaker 2: a is a net good, it's a net gain for Americans, 1321 01:11:53,520 --> 01:11:56,240 Speaker 2: and he was throwing out the statistics about the welfare 1322 01:11:56,320 --> 01:11:59,680 Speaker 2: usage of the of this population and the crime of 1323 01:11:59,680 --> 01:12:00,479 Speaker 2: this population. 1324 01:12:01,680 --> 01:12:02,599 Speaker 5: It's not good. 1325 01:12:02,640 --> 01:12:04,679 Speaker 2: And I think that all of this, all of these 1326 01:12:04,720 --> 01:12:07,720 Speaker 2: sort of minor small stories, build up into a conversation 1327 01:12:07,800 --> 01:12:10,160 Speaker 2: that I think that we are having. And I'm glad 1328 01:12:10,160 --> 01:12:12,400 Speaker 2: that we have the administration that we do, but I 1329 01:12:12,400 --> 01:12:15,200 Speaker 2: think we need to be having this conversation much more 1330 01:12:15,200 --> 01:12:18,840 Speaker 2: explicitly about immigration in this country and how to not 1331 01:12:19,000 --> 01:12:20,000 Speaker 2: turn into Europe. 1332 01:12:20,080 --> 01:12:22,080 Speaker 1: I think that that is one of the most important 1333 01:12:22,120 --> 01:12:26,680 Speaker 1: conversations that we need to have, and especially when you're 1334 01:12:26,680 --> 01:12:30,400 Speaker 1: talking about people groups that are just dead set determined 1335 01:12:30,439 --> 01:12:34,120 Speaker 1: to not assimilate. But the one thing about those waves 1336 01:12:34,479 --> 01:12:37,080 Speaker 1: of immigration that came to New York City from Russia, 1337 01:12:37,120 --> 01:12:41,000 Speaker 1: from Italy, from Poland, from all the different places in 1338 01:12:41,040 --> 01:12:45,360 Speaker 1: the Caribbean, they wanted to come and become Americans. They 1339 01:12:45,400 --> 01:12:48,960 Speaker 1: wanted to be not what they were, not necessarily abandoning 1340 01:12:49,000 --> 01:12:52,760 Speaker 1: their lineage or their culture, but they wanted to take 1341 01:12:52,760 --> 01:12:55,360 Speaker 1: on a new identity. They wanted to become an American. 1342 01:12:55,840 --> 01:12:59,360 Speaker 1: And if you look at even how elon Omar, who 1343 01:12:59,360 --> 01:13:03,000 Speaker 1: represents the group of people in Congress, conducts herself, it's 1344 01:13:03,040 --> 01:13:07,280 Speaker 1: as though she's in contempt of being an American. And 1345 01:13:07,320 --> 01:13:11,759 Speaker 1: there's this there's this almost overt hostility while you're living 1346 01:13:11,800 --> 01:13:13,880 Speaker 1: here under the good graces of all of us who 1347 01:13:13,880 --> 01:13:16,040 Speaker 1: have you know, helped you and giving you a hand 1348 01:13:16,120 --> 01:13:18,960 Speaker 1: out while you've been here. Uh, there's this hostility to 1349 01:13:19,320 --> 01:13:23,040 Speaker 1: actually saying you you owe something to us. And that's 1350 01:13:23,240 --> 01:13:25,840 Speaker 1: just I think fuel on the fire when when you're 1351 01:13:25,840 --> 01:13:28,800 Speaker 1: talking about giving them taxpayer money to the to the 1352 01:13:28,840 --> 01:13:31,000 Speaker 1: tune of billions and billions and billions of it. 1353 01:13:31,280 --> 01:13:37,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, and the the underlying sense of entitlement and resentment 1354 01:13:37,720 --> 01:13:40,599 Speaker 2: means they sit right in with with the left. This 1355 01:13:40,720 --> 01:13:44,880 Speaker 2: anger and resentment that is not based in anything resembling reality, 1356 01:13:45,200 --> 01:13:50,120 Speaker 2: and the entitlement of you know, both populations, the these 1357 01:13:50,520 --> 01:13:53,880 Speaker 2: ungrateful immigrants and also the folks on the left. This 1358 01:13:54,200 --> 01:13:56,960 Speaker 2: is this is, this is their whole ideology. So their 1359 01:13:57,040 --> 01:14:01,519 Speaker 2: natural bedfellows. It's why they it's why they believe that, 1360 01:14:01,640 --> 01:14:04,400 Speaker 2: you know, when you bring someone to the polls, you 1361 01:14:04,400 --> 01:14:06,120 Speaker 2: should just be able to vouch for them as being 1362 01:14:06,160 --> 01:14:08,920 Speaker 2: a citizen instead of actually being a citizen. Right, because 1363 01:14:08,960 --> 01:14:12,160 Speaker 2: this is this is how they're in power. In places 1364 01:14:12,200 --> 01:14:15,640 Speaker 2: like Minnesota, they have Democrats in charge who look the 1365 01:14:15,680 --> 01:14:19,519 Speaker 2: other way and they scratch each other's back and and 1366 01:14:19,600 --> 01:14:21,680 Speaker 2: I think that you know, the regular people of Minnesota 1367 01:14:21,720 --> 01:14:24,200 Speaker 2: have had their eyes opened, the fact that you know 1368 01:14:24,600 --> 01:14:27,599 Speaker 2: they're there, every everything about their way of life is 1369 01:14:27,760 --> 01:14:31,840 Speaker 2: being sucked out of their neighborhoods very very quickly, and 1370 01:14:31,880 --> 01:14:33,680 Speaker 2: they have to put up a fight or where they're 1371 01:14:33,680 --> 01:14:34,280 Speaker 2: going to have to move. 1372 01:14:34,880 --> 01:14:38,599 Speaker 1: Not only that, the corruption is such to systemic levels 1373 01:14:38,640 --> 01:14:40,880 Speaker 1: in that state. And I do think that Waltz and 1374 01:14:41,000 --> 01:14:45,000 Speaker 1: Omar and anybody, maybe Ellison, anybody that had their hands 1375 01:14:45,000 --> 01:14:48,160 Speaker 1: on this needs to be investigated stem to Stern. I 1376 01:14:48,160 --> 01:14:50,879 Speaker 1: think they need to get into every nook and cranny 1377 01:14:50,960 --> 01:14:53,479 Speaker 1: of what these people were up to, because we know 1378 01:14:53,600 --> 01:14:57,320 Speaker 1: that elon Omar served as basically a liaison to get 1379 01:14:57,479 --> 01:15:00,880 Speaker 1: monies sent to that community. Yeah, is she aware of 1380 01:15:00,920 --> 01:15:04,600 Speaker 1: the corruption? And if so, was she criminally liable for 1381 01:15:04,680 --> 01:15:06,599 Speaker 1: some of what has happened. I think Tim Walls may 1382 01:15:06,640 --> 01:15:10,040 Speaker 1: be facing an indictment. It certainly seemed that Jade Vance 1383 01:15:10,640 --> 01:15:13,519 Speaker 1: is not opposed to that according to his press conference yesterday. 1384 01:15:13,520 --> 01:15:17,200 Speaker 1: But he's also talking about systemic corruption in California and 1385 01:15:17,200 --> 01:15:20,080 Speaker 1: in Washington State, and in Oregon and possibly in New 1386 01:15:20,120 --> 01:15:22,360 Speaker 1: York and New Jersey. I mean, there's a lot of 1387 01:15:22,360 --> 01:15:23,040 Speaker 1: this to go around. 1388 01:15:23,080 --> 01:15:26,080 Speaker 2: It looks like, Yeah, it's funny because when I used 1389 01:15:26,080 --> 01:15:27,840 Speaker 2: to live in New Jersey, I would drive by these 1390 01:15:27,880 --> 01:15:30,080 Speaker 2: places and think to myself, who in the right mind 1391 01:15:30,120 --> 01:15:33,479 Speaker 2: would put their kids in a daycare in an industrial park? 1392 01:15:34,040 --> 01:15:36,519 Speaker 2: And that should have set off my internal alarmvolves as 1393 01:15:36,560 --> 01:15:40,439 Speaker 2: someone who sees a conspiracy everywhere, because the answer is 1394 01:15:40,439 --> 01:15:42,519 Speaker 2: no one. Yeah, no one is dropping their kids off 1395 01:15:42,600 --> 01:15:47,080 Speaker 2: at this creepy Rundown industrial park daycare. It's obviously a front, 1396 01:15:47,120 --> 01:15:49,760 Speaker 2: the same way that when you drive by these massage parlors, 1397 01:15:49,760 --> 01:15:55,760 Speaker 2: they're obviously affront So I really applaud these citizen journalists 1398 01:15:55,760 --> 01:16:00,000 Speaker 2: who have done more for journalism than anyone at ABC, CBSCNNA, 1399 01:16:00,160 --> 01:16:02,720 Speaker 2: all of these places combined, because that's the only way 1400 01:16:02,760 --> 01:16:03,599 Speaker 2: things get done here. 1401 01:16:03,880 --> 01:16:06,760 Speaker 1: No, it's absolutely true, and I'm glad you didn't let 1402 01:16:06,800 --> 01:16:10,480 Speaker 1: your lack of leering keep you from making the observations 1403 01:16:10,520 --> 01:16:12,080 Speaker 1: that needed to be See. We can all leer a 1404 01:16:12,120 --> 01:16:15,000 Speaker 1: little bit better if we just if we try harder. 1405 01:16:15,600 --> 01:16:18,040 Speaker 1: Bethany Mandel, always a pleasure to have you, and thanks 1406 01:16:18,040 --> 01:16:19,520 Speaker 1: for coming back, and Happy. 1407 01:16:19,240 --> 01:16:21,200 Speaker 2: New Year, Happy New Year, thanks for having me back. 1408 01:16:21,320 --> 01:16:23,759 Speaker 1: Kevin McCullough coming right back from Times Squared, Uncle. 1409 01:16:23,560 --> 01:16:31,120 Speaker 9: Away, Let's stick around for more of that Kevin next. 1410 01:16:41,960 --> 01:16:44,240 Speaker 7: Serving it up.

For instance, two 1430 01:17:52,120 --> 01:17:56,280 Speaker 1: hundred and eighty dollars would supply ultrasounds for ten moms 1431 01:17:56,320 --> 01:18:00,759 Speaker 1: and save ten babies lives.
