It is is. 27 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 2: I don't know how we're dealing with this. Friends. We 28 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 2: had twenty eight inches of wedding cake snow on our 29 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 2: yard for four weeks, and now we've got another eighteen inches. 30 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 2: Well it's been melted down. Maybe ten inches or so 31 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 2: was gone, but I hadn't seen my I still hadn't 32 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 2: seen my grass, and then a little bit of rain 33 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:10,240 Speaker 2: came and kind of washed some of it off, and 34 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:11,799 Speaker 2: now we've got another foot and a half on top 35 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:15,400 Speaker 2: of that. Where's the global warming? Why don't we have 36 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:19,360 Speaker 2: global warming? I hear so much about global warming. Where's 37 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 2: the warming? Don't start with me? I know some of 38 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:25,080 Speaker 2: you scientific types, you're like, well, you don't understand. The 39 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 2: study says it actually under global warming, it will snow more. 40 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 2: Whatever it's it's enough. We are ready for it to 41 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 2: be done, and they're saying that maybe more will be 42 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 2: coming later in the week. I do not do not 43 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:43,399 Speaker 2: want any of this to happen. There are important things 44 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 2: that need to take place this week. President's got a 45 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 2: state of the Union. We've got some big things happening 46 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 2: within our family, and I know that my bride desperately 47 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 2: needs to be able to get to the West coast. 48 00:02:56,320 --> 00:03:00,639 Speaker 2: Like there's this is not it's not my face favorite thing. 49 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 2: So anyway, Uh, Kevin mccallaugh, Glad to be with you, 50 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 2: Glad to also be back in my own studio. I 51 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 2: had fun at n RB. I didn't expect to. The 52 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,799 Speaker 2: n RB has been something that I have thought about 53 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 2: in years past as just a drudgery. They've they've really 54 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 2: improved the thing, like it had a lot more pizazz 55 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:25,120 Speaker 2: this year. But I think I had more fun because 56 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,360 Speaker 2: of the people I was hanging out with, like the 57 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:31,079 Speaker 2: Devil from the Babylon b Charit Lamaster. 58 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 6: Uh. 59 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,359 Speaker 2: We we ran into each other a few times and 60 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 2: and we've he's been on the show and we we 61 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 2: we had we had some fun. In fact, I think 62 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 2: he got a lot of good material. Joel Ostein's brother 63 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 2: met him and gave him and gave the devil grief 64 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 2: for why he's always making fun of Joel Ostein. You know, 65 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 2: that's but that's what the bee does. You run the 66 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 2: risk when when you're a crazy Christian doing stuff that's 67 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 2: kind of unbiblical. They're going to get you for it. 68 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 2: So just heads up. That's the way it works. What 69 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 2: else happened, Oh well, I got to have dinner with 70 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 2: with Keith and Christen Getty, which was which is always fun. 71 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:16,159 Speaker 2: Not dinner. They invited us to come over to the 72 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 2: house to have a little toast to the new That 73 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:24,840 Speaker 2: Kevin Show. So we were we were celebrating because they 74 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 2: had not had a chance to celebrate with us the 75 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 2: new national version of the show. And they they have 76 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 2: enjoyed it because they get it in Nashville now and 77 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,279 Speaker 2: there's there's people that they're talking to that are hearing 78 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 2: it all over the place and it's been a really 79 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 2: really good thing. Got to see my bosses and that's 80 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 2: always good spending time with them. And I also was 81 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:52,280 Speaker 2: not completely devoid of the news going on back here. 82 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 2: So you know, we start hearing that this blizzard's coming, 83 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:06,480 Speaker 2: and I kid, you know, Mayor widow Juan Mondami, who's 84 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,039 Speaker 2: who's about. He comes up to about my knee, like 85 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 2: that's he's a little guy, tiny king. Uh. He He 86 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:20,159 Speaker 2: makes a statement earlier in the weekend saying that people 87 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 2: can volunteer to be a city snow remover. Now, this, 88 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 2: this is how messed up. This is the removal of 89 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 2: snow is something that should be done according to the 90 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 2: Sanitation department of the city. That's their job. That's what 91 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 2: the taxpayers of New York City pay for. They pay 92 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 2: for the sanitation department to remove the snow when it snows. 93 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:58,280 Speaker 2: But he was out recruiting volunteers and offering to pay 94 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:03,480 Speaker 2: them to do the job that the sanitation departments already 95 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 2: paid to do. Now that is messed up. Why are 96 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 2: you paying twice for the work to be done once? 97 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,280 Speaker 2: Doesn't make any sense. But this was the best part 98 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 2: of it. He said. Here's how you qualify for getting paid. 99 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,480 Speaker 2: You show up at the Sanitation department, again, the department 100 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:26,679 Speaker 2: that's supposed to be doing it. You have to bring 101 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:31,760 Speaker 2: your Social Security number and two forms of ID in 102 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 2: order to qualify for payment. So I guess, according to 103 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 2: what Widow Mayor Jowanmodummy said previously, he evidently does not 104 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:49,920 Speaker 2: expect black people or brown people to show up to 105 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:54,599 Speaker 2: shovel snow because he expects not one form of ID, 106 00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:58,839 Speaker 2: but two forms of ID in order to employ you. 107 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 2: So why does widow Jowammdami, what does he have against 108 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 2: black people? What does he have against brown people? Because, 109 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 2: as he himself was saying last week, brown people and 110 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 2: black people cannot get IDs. They are incapable of understanding 111 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 2: the process of how to achieve an ID. They can't 112 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 2: get an ID for their work because they're just incapable 113 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 2: of doing it, and they can't get an ID for 114 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 2: their driver's license because they don't know how. So how 115 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 2: how can you how can you possibly expect black people 116 00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 2: and brown people to be able to show up with 117 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 2: two not one ID? Two IDs? You have to have 118 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 2: two IDs to get to go shovel snow for a 119 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 2: city that's already paid another department to do it. Oh well, 120 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 2: wait a minute, he said, I didn't. I didn't, I 121 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 2: didn't really mean that. Of course, I think that that 122 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 2: black people and brown people can shovel snow and get IDs. 123 00:07:57,960 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 2: I'm sure that they're I'm sure that they're able to 124 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 2: get IDs. Wido on mom dummy says. Widow Joan says 125 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 2: that that people, black people and brown people are perfectly 126 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 2: capable of not supplying one, but two IDs. So why then, 127 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 2: do you, Widow Joan, think they can't have IDs in 128 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 2: order to vote. What kind of racist, bigoted, disingenuous, embarrassing 129 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:34,960 Speaker 2: view do you have towards people of color, Mayor, Mom, Donnie. 130 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 2: They're good enough to shovel your snow, but not good 131 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:42,439 Speaker 2: enough to vote. It's a real problem what this mayor said. 132 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 2: How he's requiring two forms of ID to do the 133 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 2: job that the sanitation Department's already paid to do. But 134 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 2: the fact that he thinks that there's absolutely zero problem 135 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 2: with black people or brown people getting IDs to do 136 00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 2: this job and to pay them government money to go 137 00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:03,560 Speaker 2: do it. Yet when it comes to keeping elections clean 138 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 2: and only allowing those that should be allowed to vote 139 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 2: to vote, he will argue that they are not capable, 140 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:16,439 Speaker 2: that they are too ignorant or unintelligent to be able 141 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:20,840 Speaker 2: to achieve an ID. When I kid you, not every 142 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 2: black person I know has an ID. Even my disabled son, 143 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 2: who is a person of color, has his own state 144 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,839 Speaker 2: ID and is allowed to vote. Something to think about 145 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 2: in the progressive, socialist, Islamic radical state of the country 146 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 2: that New York City has become. Anyway, Welcome home, Kevin mcculloughy, 147 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 2: Glad you're here. We're going to ask how we live? 148 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 2: Coming up next. 149 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 1: Here he is from New York. Kevin McCullough. 150 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 2: All right, welcome friends. I know, I know, it's blistering, 151 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 2: it's snowy. We did not need this. We went four 152 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 2: weeks trying to melt off the old stuff and it's 153 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 2: still here. But guess what God felt. This is what 154 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 2: we needed in the New York area. So that's what 155 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:31,440 Speaker 2: we've got. But so glad to have you with us 156 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 2: as we are talking to the entire nation here with 157 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 2: that Kevin Show. Freshly back from NRB. What a crazy 158 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 2: week for me last week. Thank you to Tanika and 159 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 2: the team for all the extra effort that they gave. 160 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 2: As we have been about the business over the last 161 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 2: year or so, we take this portion of the show 162 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 2: every day right up here at the front, to break 163 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:54,680 Speaker 2: open the word and to say, how do we live 164 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:58,320 Speaker 2: in a day and time in which everything seems to 165 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 2: be upside down, topsy turm, be backwards inside out? When 166 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:07,440 Speaker 2: a culture who really dislikes God really doesn't like his word, 167 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:09,319 Speaker 2: and in fact, they'd probably be okay with God if 168 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 2: his word wasn't involved. You know, how do we live 169 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 2: in light of the fact that they look at us 170 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:18,320 Speaker 2: kind of weird if we say we love that God 171 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 2: and depend on his word. That is the that is 172 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 2: the situation that we find ourselves in here in North 173 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:27,439 Speaker 2: America and the US in twenty twenty six. And we 174 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 2: want to be smart, We want to live missionally. We 175 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 2: want to be on purpose, on task, which is to 176 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 2: make disciples until He returns. Right, making disciples that make disciples. Well, 177 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 2: how do we do that? Well, We're so fortunate to 178 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:44,840 Speaker 2: have so many shepherds across the country that have decided 179 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 2: this year to jump in and join us and to 180 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 2: give us a little insight on this.

We 220 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:45,559 Speaker 5: have street teams that go down to We've seen many 221 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 5: of the protesters get saved, and I can talk about 222 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 5: that later, but anyways, it's time to be full of 223 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,680 Speaker 5: the Holy Spirit, and in Mark eight thirty five, it's 224 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 5: time to give up everything for the Lord's sake and 225 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 5: for the sake of the Gospel. 226 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:04,439 Speaker 2: Well, I want to talk about that because I can't 227 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 2: think of a more practical issue that we're dealing with. 228 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,120 Speaker 2: And you said something just a second ago that I 229 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:14,640 Speaker 2: have heard pastors from the Houston area, from here in 230 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 2: New York and New Jersey, from California that have all 231 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 2: said the same thing to me, that this is one 232 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:25,359 Speaker 2: of the most exciting times to be in church ministry. 233 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:28,080 Speaker 2: And I will tell you my own pastor. He says 234 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 2: this regularly from the pulpit, but he goes, you know, 235 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 2: before COVID a few years back, and he got saved 236 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 2: late in his teenage years, and you know, he doesn't 237 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 2: think he's a very good teacher and he's one of 238 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 2: the most profound guys I've ever listened to. But when 239 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 2: he got saved, it was kind of a surprise to 240 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:49,520 Speaker 2: some of his friends. And still to this day, even 241 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 2: many years later. He lives not far from where he 242 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 2: grew up, and people will come up to him that 243 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 2: knew him when he was young and they'll say, hey, 244 00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 2: you know, what are you doing well, I'm a pastor. 245 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 2: And a few years ago they they would kind of 246 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 2: like shrink, okay, nice to hear you, see you, thank you, goodbye, 247 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 2: kind of you know, do the Irish exit very nicely 248 00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 2: and leave him standing there. But in recent years, and 249 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 2: I would say not even since COVID, but just in 250 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 2: the last twenty four months or so, he's had more 251 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 2: and more people coming to him saying, we need more 252 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 2: of what you have and we need more people to 253 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 2: give it to us. And it's like there is there 254 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 2: is an there is a hunger and an ache in 255 00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:34,960 Speaker 2: the culture. They don't necessarily know that they want Jesus, 256 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 2: but they know that they're missing something. Is this what 257 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 2: you're referring to when you say it's one of the 258 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 2: most exciting times to be in ministry. 259 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:45,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, and I think you know, we've you know, we've 260 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 5: I've been a Christian for a few decades, but we've 261 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 5: had a tendency in the church. I think to make 262 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 5: knowing Jesus, you know, make that that definitely a goal. 263 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 4: But we have defined it for people very well. 264 00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 5: And you know, if you look in the Bible, when 265 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 5: Jesus chose his disciples, you know, even in Mark chapter one, 266 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 5: you know, it says they they left their father. They 267 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 5: you know, two of them left their father, two of 268 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:17,040 Speaker 5: them left their nets, and they and you know, this 269 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:21,840 Speaker 5: whole idea of people leaving everything to follow Jesus, and 270 00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 5: we call it the everything decision. You give up everything 271 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 5: for his everything. It's the best exchange in the whole world. 272 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 5: It's like we give up our lives, we give up 273 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:34,560 Speaker 5: everything to follow him. 274 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 4: And that's what it really means to know Jesus. 275 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:40,120 Speaker 5: The next thirteen twenty two David, you know, it talks 276 00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 5: about David, you know, taking over for Saul because because 277 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:47,280 Speaker 5: God found him to be a person after God's own heart, 278 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 5: and he would do everything the Lord told him to do. 279 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 5: And so we're kind of raising up a new generation 280 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:56,840 Speaker 5: where we're redefining what it really means to know Jesus personally. 281 00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:00,960 Speaker 5: It's a loving, daily, faith filled obedience walk with the Lord. 282 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 4: And I think. 283 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:05,359 Speaker 5: That that's just something that in the past years, because 284 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:08,760 Speaker 5: there hasn't been much challenge in our culture, you know, 285 00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 5: for the for the normal, you know cities we live in. 286 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:18,159 Speaker 5: Now we are facing an aggressive form, many aggressive forms 287 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,200 Speaker 5: of evil, and it's time for the Davids to rise up, 288 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 5: time for the souls to go to the wayside in 289 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:27,679 Speaker 5: the new definition of knowing Jesus personally being a loving, 290 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:29,760 Speaker 5: faith filled daily relationship with God. 291 00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 2: And I want to point out something about your analogy there, 292 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:35,360 Speaker 2: And I think this is going to be a great week. 293 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:40,679 Speaker 2: I can already tell because David was as flawed a 294 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:45,639 Speaker 2: human beings as they came, Oh Amen. And yet God 295 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:48,280 Speaker 2: loved him, called him a man after his own heart, 296 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:51,919 Speaker 2: saw his sin, did not ignore his sin, did not 297 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 2: overlook his sin. But he worked through and in spite 298 00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:58,800 Speaker 2: of David's sin and weakness to still accomplish his glory. 299 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:01,640 Speaker 2: Is there a message in there for people that may 300 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:05,840 Speaker 2: be thinking, But Pastor Mark, you don't understand. You don't 301 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,960 Speaker 2: understand what I've done. You don't understand where I've been. 302 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:12,640 Speaker 2: You have no idea how bad I've a person I've been. 303 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:16,240 Speaker 5: Amen, Amen, and thank God for the grace of Jesus, 304 00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:20,040 Speaker 5: because I was that guy right you know, back I 305 00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 5: got saved in the early nineties, and but I was 306 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 5: that guy. 307 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,359 Speaker 4: I was living. You know, everything was wrong. 308 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:31,560 Speaker 5: I was addicted to just about everything and very very 309 00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 5: rough around the edges. And God took me and you know, 310 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 5: by the grace of God, you know, you know, as 311 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 5: I gave my life completely to the Lord, you know, 312 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:45,240 Speaker 5: just gradually cleaned up everything in my life. And I 313 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,120 Speaker 5: think that's the good news about the power of God. 314 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 4: You know, we talked about the Holy Spirit next chapter one. 315 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,959 Speaker 5: This is an advantage even over David's time, right because 316 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:56,080 Speaker 5: now you know, in the old cavenant they could know 317 00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:58,720 Speaker 5: God in a way where he would come upon them, 318 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:01,679 Speaker 5: they could be into with him to a degree. But 319 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 5: now we have the Holy Spirit in dwelling, where God 320 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 5: can live in us and we can have a relationship 321 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 5: with Him from the inside out. 322 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:11,840 Speaker 4: And so we got the advantage. 323 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 5: The Holy Spirit lives in us to give us the 324 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,720 Speaker 5: desires to love God and do what he wants and 325 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:22,160 Speaker 5: obey God and love what the Lord loves. 326 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 4: Right and hate what the Lord hates. 327 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:27,359 Speaker 5: The Holy Spirit helps us with that and it's a 328 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:31,199 Speaker 5: process every day, so you know, and I was a 329 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 5: great example. 330 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 4: I mean I was. 331 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:36,639 Speaker 5: Very, very addicted rough around the edges. I got delivered 332 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:38,560 Speaker 5: to six demons. I know, it's a crazy story.

But but what God told us in 385 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:33,200 Speaker 5: that season, and they were trying to shut all the 386 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:37,120 Speaker 5: churches down and everybody mask up and jab and all 387 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,679 Speaker 5: that stuff, what God told me in that season is 388 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:42,240 Speaker 5: because we used to do street evangelism once a month, 389 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 5: and that God told me back in that season, he said, 390 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:47,720 Speaker 5: I want you to start doing it every week. As 391 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:50,520 Speaker 5: the devil has gotten aggressive, I want you to get aggressive. 392 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,719 Speaker 5: So and we were already raising up you know people, 393 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,120 Speaker 5: you know, teach people how to you know, simply share 394 00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:58,240 Speaker 5: their faith, you know, on the streets, and how to 395 00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,080 Speaker 5: share the gospel, share your testimony, how to pray for people. 396 00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 5: We've been doing that for a while, but now the 397 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 5: Lord said, ramp it up. So now fast forward to 398 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 5: you know, this last season since January. You know what 399 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:13,160 Speaker 5: we just decided to do with our street teams, which 400 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 5: we go all over the city. We go door to door, 401 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 5: we go to Pride fest we go everywhere, and we 402 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 5: preach the real gospel. Because the Lord's given us that vision. 403 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 5: So when this happened, we just grabbed it. We kind 404 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 5: of do what we do and we go to like 405 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 5: Pride fests and some of these other festivals. We grab 406 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:33,160 Speaker 5: a bunch of coffee, a bunch of water, a bunch 407 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 5: of hand whearwers. 408 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 4: You know, it's like twenty below and we go down there. 409 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 5: We bundle up and our teams now are fairly ready, 410 00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 5: and we also help other churches, you know, develop teams. 411 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 4: But we go down. 412 00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:46,640 Speaker 5: There and we just start doing our thing. Just pray 413 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:48,399 Speaker 5: it up, go on the power of the Holy Spirit. 414 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:51,199 Speaker 5: Spend about an hour hour and a half tops, and 415 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:53,639 Speaker 5: we go to the where the heart of the city is. 416 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 5: And so we were down there for a few weeks 417 00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:58,920 Speaker 5: and going right down in the in the midst of that, 418 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 5: and just loving on people, even though there's you know, 419 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 5: I would say most of them are pretty afraid. There's 420 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:12,360 Speaker 5: instigators and agitators twenty percent that are you know, boldly, 421 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:16,199 Speaker 5: you know, aggressive with their messages and their bullhorns. But 422 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:20,919 Speaker 5: we're going in there offering coffee, loving on people, starting conversations, 423 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 5: sharing the Gospel with them, asking to pray with them. 424 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 5: And once you get to pray with people, even you know, 425 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,400 Speaker 5: just pray, Hell, let's pray protection over this place, right, 426 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:34,440 Speaker 5: and they start to soften and they start to get 427 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 5: really open to the gospel. And we saw at least 428 00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 5: three dozen protesters, some of them very angry, give their 429 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:44,600 Speaker 5: lives to Jesus. So that's a little bit about how 430 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 5: we do it. 431 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 2: So what was some of the results of what happened 432 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 2: when you did take the gospel to the to the 433 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:53,560 Speaker 2: ice protesters. 434 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:55,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, when you go down there as a team, and 435 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:58,320 Speaker 5: I always recommend, you know, teams, and especially if you're 436 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:02,720 Speaker 5: going down into pretty heated environments like that, a lot 437 00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 5: of men need to go down. You need to show 438 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:08,520 Speaker 5: that you've got strength, that we got great women, but 439 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 5: you need to have men down there who can handle 440 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 5: themselves physically in the worst case scenario and even be 441 00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:19,800 Speaker 5: a protector of our people. But ninety nine percent of 442 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:22,120 Speaker 5: the time we don't have any problems because what happens 443 00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:23,200 Speaker 5: is we get. 444 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 2: A little hub. 445 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:26,440 Speaker 5: We have a little location that's our main hub where 446 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 5: we have our tracks, our bibles, our coffee, our water, 447 00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:34,919 Speaker 5: all hand warmers, all that stuff, and that becomes like 448 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 5: a little church for everybody. 449 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:39,920 Speaker 4: It's amazing. And then you have people going out from 450 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:41,120 Speaker 4: that group and. 451 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:46,760 Speaker 5: They're doing their ministry and now people there's favor on it, 452 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:50,080 Speaker 5: even though they know we're those Christians that are not 453 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:51,440 Speaker 5: the woke Christians. 454 00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 4: We're not those Christians were the real Christians. We have 455 00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:58,400 Speaker 4: favor because. 456 00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 5: They see us as ally kind of because they're like, well, 457 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:05,920 Speaker 5: well they love us, right, And you know, you get 458 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,400 Speaker 5: some people that are very aggressive because there are people 459 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 5: that are guarding the territory of what they're doing. 460 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:14,119 Speaker 4: But God always gives us favor. 461 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:17,040 Speaker 5: All God's people got to do is show up with 462 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:20,439 Speaker 5: a willingness to love people and serve people and bring 463 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,200 Speaker 5: something that's going to be a blessing and then let 464 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:23,960 Speaker 5: it rip well. 465 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,439 Speaker 2: And I think that far too many times some of 466 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:31,000 Speaker 2: us myself included different seasons of my life, think that 467 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:33,679 Speaker 2: far too much of the Gospel is dependent upon me 468 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:36,680 Speaker 2: to be comfortable telling it in order for it to work. 469 00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:39,159 Speaker 2: And the exact opposite is true. The power is not 470 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:42,200 Speaker 2: in the person. The power is in the Gospel itself. 471 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:48,440 Speaker 2: And when you simply submit and surrender and do it, 472 00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:51,000 Speaker 2: it's amazing what God can do. There's a pastor in 473 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 2: the New York tri state area that encourages his congregation 474 00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:58,719 Speaker 2: to cast every week, multiple times a week, and what 475 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,440 Speaker 2: he means by casting is like fisher, fisher for men, 476 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:04,440 Speaker 2: fishers of men. You cast and somebody says, what'd you 477 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 2: do this weekend? I went to church? Why did you go? Boom? 478 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 2: There you go. You got an opportunity to lay it 479 00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:13,880 Speaker 2: on them and they asked for it. The idea is 480 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 2: that there's so much more that we can do if 481 00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:19,000 Speaker 2: we are on the lookout for it. And certainly not 482 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:21,199 Speaker 2: all of us would feel brave enough to do what 483 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:23,440 Speaker 2: you guys do in terms of going into that scenario. 484 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 2: But I think that everyone taking a little bit of 485 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:30,199 Speaker 2: a step forward thinking how can I how can I 486 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 2: just share the Gospel in a way today with someone 487 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,120 Speaker 2: that I run across or where I'm at, and you've 488 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:39,160 Speaker 2: encouraged this along those lines. So thank you for doing that. Mark. 489 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:41,119 Speaker 2: We will talk to you again tomorrow with how do 490 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 2: We Live?

Paul Jacobs and Danny Patino 509 00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 2: with Kevin McCullough here on that Kevin Show for today, 510 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 2: and guys, I don't think that there's anybody that I've 511 00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 2: never even heard that expression be said before in American culture, 512 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:09,920 Speaker 2: to say that we're going to build a tolerance against 513 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:13,640 Speaker 2: hunger in our own existence, Like, that's just it's so 514 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:15,240 Speaker 2: foreign to the mind. 515 00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:18,120 Speaker 7: That's what happens when you were a little girl in Honduras, 516 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 7: where your life is day in and day out, going 517 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:23,840 Speaker 7: with your father to the local garbage dump, a local 518 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:26,280 Speaker 7: garbage dump where you forge through piles of trash with 519 00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 7: other people have thrown away, hopefully to find a bottle 520 00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 7: I can something that you could sell to the recycler, 521 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:35,040 Speaker 7: And the reality is that there are days that they 522 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 7: cannot and they will have to forage for their next meal. 523 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 7: That's Daniella's situation. And when we were there visiting her 524 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,160 Speaker 7: and before we had this conversation, I remember one of 525 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:47,080 Speaker 7: the first things that she told the team was that 526 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:49,960 Speaker 7: when I first wake up in the morning, I first 527 00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 7: thought is food. And of course, you know, you almost 528 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:54,719 Speaker 7: take it for granted. You're like, of course, and we 529 00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 7: look at each other and you're almost saying, we all, yes, 530 00:29:57,200 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 7: we're all our first thing is food. But when you 531 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 7: peek into the daily life of a girl in Honduras, 532 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 7: like Daniella, where a garbage dump is your only respite 533 00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:11,400 Speaker 7: to get food, to get finances to buy food. It 534 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 7: is a tragic nightmare, but it can change right now 535 00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 7: with your generosity. A committed gift of one hundred and 536 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 7: fifty dollars will take two children like Daniella and deliver 537 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 7: them water in their community and food for an entire year. 538 00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 7: And because there is a match this hour, right now, 539 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 7: your one hundred and fifty dollars gift has twice the impact. 540 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 7: That's four children. 541 00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's really incredible, and I want to say thank you, 542 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:39,840 Speaker 2: by the way to that friend of Food for the 543 00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 2: Poor who stepped up and said hey during Kevin Show today, 544 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 2: every single gift being matched, we're going to feed twice 545 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 2: as many people today. Friends. This is where you've heard 546 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:53,080 Speaker 2: me discuss this concept in the past, but it's important 547 00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 2: to reiterate it because we've always got new people coming 548 00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 2: to the show. Is doing something good better than doing nothing? Yes? 549 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 2: Is doing good better than doing something small that's good? Yes? 550 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:08,120 Speaker 2: Doing good is good on all of those levels. But 551 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:11,000 Speaker 2: is doing good something that's good when you could do 552 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 2: the maximum good. We're going to match every single bite 553 00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:20,040 Speaker 2: of food that you can put onto the plate this hour, 554 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:23,760 Speaker 2: every child that gets fed, every name that gets taken 555 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 2: off the list, We're going to take another one off 556 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:28,560 Speaker 2: the list. I want to do the maximum good. So 557 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 2: here's what I want to do, and I don't really 558 00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 2: care what your means are. If you can give seventy 559 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 2: five dollars and feed one child, give that gift now, 560 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 2: because it's going to turn into two kids that are 561 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:42,200 Speaker 2: going to be helped. But if you can give a 562 00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:46,840 Speaker 2: gift of fifteen hundred dollars and help many many children 563 00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:50,960 Speaker 2: in the process, do that now, because that turns into 564 00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:54,560 Speaker 2: twice as many of so in essence, three thousand dollars 565 00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:56,600 Speaker 2: worth of help. If you can do one hundred and 566 00:31:56,640 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 2: fifty thousand dollars of good right now, do that right now, 567 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:04,240 Speaker 2: because this is the time, This is the moment. This 568 00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 2: is the place where you can take what you can 569 00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:09,880 Speaker 2: do God, compare it with a generous heart that he 570 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:13,640 Speaker 2: is prepared somewhere else, and together bringing them together, that 571 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 2: does the maximum good, the most good. And when you 572 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:19,400 Speaker 2: think about good in the in the context of scripture, 573 00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:22,120 Speaker 2: think about think about the Book of James, think about 574 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:24,520 Speaker 2: the New Testament, think about all the places where Paul 575 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 2: and Jesus encourage us to don't just go with your 576 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 2: neighbor one, but extend it. Keep doing the good thing, 577 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 2: keep reaching out, keep doing what you can. And right now, 578 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:38,360 Speaker 2: the maximum good that you can do is to give 579 00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 2: a gift of whatever size the Lord puts on your heart, 580 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:43,440 Speaker 2: because at the end of the day, that's going to 581 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 2: be doubled in its impact. And eight five five nine 582 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:48,080 Speaker 2: oh seven four six seven three is where you do that. 583 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 2: Eight five five nine zero seven four six seven three.

The 670 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:29,719 Speaker 2: Olympic opening and closing ceremonies to me, are always kind 671 00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:33,399 Speaker 2: of like just weird. They're just weird because they hire 672 00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:36,920 Speaker 2: these like really you know, avant garde artists and they 673 00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:40,640 Speaker 2: do all these strange presentations and it's just it's just 674 00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:45,000 Speaker 2: not my cup of tea. The the opening ceremonies tend 675 00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:49,120 Speaker 2: to be a little more tolerable than the than the clothes. 676 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:53,319 Speaker 2: Like they had Andrea Bocelli come and sing the Sun 677 00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:55,880 Speaker 2: Dorma for the opening ceremonies in Milan. That was that 678 00:37:55,960 --> 00:38:01,680 Speaker 2: was incredible. They had some weird things like night closing 679 00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:03,320 Speaker 2: out the ceremonies and it was just it was just 680 00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:05,160 Speaker 2: one of those things, it's just not my cup of tea. 681 00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:07,719 Speaker 2: Doesn't have to be Please don't judge me for it. 682 00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:10,840 Speaker 2: I don't judge you for liking it, but my family 683 00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,080 Speaker 2: is a little sad that there'll be no more figure skating. 684 00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:16,799 Speaker 2: There'll be no more you know, two men luge to 685 00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:20,120 Speaker 2: watch whatever it was that was obsessing us over the 686 00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:24,080 Speaker 2: last couple of weeks. But it is interesting to see 687 00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:31,160 Speaker 2: how the Olympics themselves impacted Americans. There's some new polls 688 00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:34,480 Speaker 2: that were done by Pew Research and Gallup, and they 689 00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:37,960 Speaker 2: consistently show that Republicans are proud of their country regardless 690 00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:42,080 Speaker 2: of who is president. That you know, when Joe Biden's 691 00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:45,879 Speaker 2: president and you have the Beijing Olympics, Americans are proud 692 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:50,040 Speaker 2: of their country. Republicans are proud of their country. When 693 00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:53,320 Speaker 2: you have Donald Trump as president and it's the Milan Olympics, 694 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:55,200 Speaker 2: Republicans are proud of their country. They're just proud of 695 00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:59,480 Speaker 2: their country no matter who's president. But but but, according 696 00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:03,760 Speaker 2: to these new polls, while Democrats are just only proud 697 00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:09,160 Speaker 2: when Democrats run things and are repelled by their country 698 00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:13,600 Speaker 2: when Republicans do, they actually don't like their country when 699 00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 2: a Republican is running it. Even though Republicans are like, 700 00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:20,000 Speaker 2: I love my country when a Democrat's in I would 701 00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:22,480 Speaker 2: like a different president, but I love my country. Democrats 702 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:25,840 Speaker 2: are like I hate my country until I get a Democrat. 703 00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:29,080 Speaker 2: It's the way the Poland goes so anyway, it's no 704 00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 2: surprise then that a Huffington Post was lamenting this weekend 705 00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:39,319 Speaker 2: people cheering on the USA Olympians. Here's a quote from 706 00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:43,120 Speaker 2: one of the articles. The cognitive dissonance of rooting for 707 00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:46,800 Speaker 2: US sports while hating the US government is so common 708 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:49,520 Speaker 2: that it continues to be one of the main topics 709 00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:53,440 Speaker 2: I hold space for in therapy, said at Los Angeles 710 00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:58,520 Speaker 2: based clinical social worker Amy Monterrosa. She said, as we 711 00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:02,000 Speaker 2: continue to witness national and global atrocities in real time, 712 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:04,880 Speaker 2: it can trigger feelings of guilt and despair and shame 713 00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:08,720 Speaker 2: and anger. Although these feelings are common, you shouldn't ignore them. 714 00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:13,160 Speaker 2: Cognitive dissonance isn't just having mixed feelings, Said to Misha Ranger, 715 00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:17,560 Speaker 2: a Nevada based clinical psychologist, It's a psychological state that 716 00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:20,880 Speaker 2: happens when someone holds two conflicting beliefs or values at 717 00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:23,600 Speaker 2: the same time, or they are engaging in behaviors that 718 00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:27,840 Speaker 2: contradict their values. I can't cheer for my Olympians because 719 00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:30,480 Speaker 2: I hate my president, and I have to have my 720 00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:35,759 Speaker 2: therapist hold space for me during my therapy so that 721 00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:38,840 Speaker 2: I can express it all. Give me a break. Kevin 722 00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:41,000 Speaker 2: McCollough coming back.

All right. So here's here's the thing. We're 752 00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:39,440 Speaker 2: gonna have a great second hour of the show today. 753 00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:42,800 Speaker 2: If you miss the first hour, go to Salem Podcastnetwork 754 00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:44,960 Speaker 2: dot com and get the first hour. Do not miss it. 755 00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:47,239 Speaker 2: Brand new series on How Do We Live kicked off 756 00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:51,840 Speaker 2: and my opening monologue on Widow Zoron and his ID Dilemma. 757 00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:57,279 Speaker 2: But last week, I'm on my way home from from 758 00:42:57,360 --> 00:43:02,920 Speaker 2: the NRB and I'm seeing a text thread from my buddies, 759 00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:05,839 Speaker 2: who all talk smack about football in this one text 760 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:08,400 Speaker 2: thread that we have. But having said that, you know, 761 00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:11,480 Speaker 2: we're big boys, and so we do we actually do 762 00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:14,000 Speaker 2: pray for each other when we have requests and so forth. 763 00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:17,359 Speaker 2: So there's there's some edification that goes on. But one 764 00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:20,720 Speaker 2: of them popped into the thread and said, I can't 765 00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:23,600 Speaker 2: believe the market hasn't gone nuts on this. I didn't 766 00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:25,400 Speaker 2: know what he was talking about. I'm on an airplane. 767 00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:27,759 Speaker 2: I'm trying to figure out what's been going on while 768 00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:31,480 Speaker 2: I've been sequestered into the opry Land biodome for a week. 769 00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:36,200 Speaker 2: And I see that the Supreme Court ruled on the 770 00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:40,280 Speaker 2: use of the of the tariffs, and when they recently 771 00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:44,840 Speaker 2: struck down a key portion of his authority, I knew 772 00:43:44,880 --> 00:43:46,640 Speaker 2: what was going to happen, and sure enough it did. 773 00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:51,680 Speaker 2: The usual suspects ran out. They declared that the tariffs 774 00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:57,000 Speaker 2: were defeated, chaos was going to ensue. Globalists just smirked. 775 00:43:57,080 --> 00:44:01,160 Speaker 2: They were like, see, we told you. The commentary announced 776 00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:05,759 Speaker 2: that America first had finally met its constitutional wall. They 777 00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:08,239 Speaker 2: were all wrong. By the way, what they witnessed wasn't 778 00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:11,399 Speaker 2: a collapse. It was actually a strategy. And while other 779 00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:17,240 Speaker 2: people were playing checkers, President Trump plays for dchess. Instead 780 00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:23,160 Speaker 2: of retreating after the Court's decision, within hours, Trump pivoted, refined, 781 00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:28,600 Speaker 2: restructured his tariff approach through an alternative statutory authority and 782 00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:32,840 Speaker 2: executive mechanism. And it wasn't reactionary. It was a prepared, 783 00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:36,040 Speaker 2: planned defense, and it was decisive. Here's the truth that 784 00:44:36,120 --> 00:44:39,280 Speaker 2: his critics just don't want anybody to admit. The Trump 785 00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:42,080 Speaker 2: tariffs have been good for the United States, and for 786 00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:45,960 Speaker 2: the first time in decades, we have a president who's 787 00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:50,600 Speaker 2: willing to use them and not apologize, and in doing 788 00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:54,239 Speaker 2: so puts our nation first. Tariffs aren't radical. Don't listen 789 00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:55,719 Speaker 2: to people that say that they don't know what they're 790 00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:59,799 Speaker 2: talking about. They're foundational. America was actually built with them. 791 00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:03,759 Speaker 2: Abraham Lincoln used tariffs to protect American industry into fund 792 00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:07,719 Speaker 2: national expansion. For much of our early history, tariffs were 793 00:45:07,719 --> 00:45:10,359 Speaker 2: the primary revenue source for the federal government. We didn't 794 00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:13,480 Speaker 2: even have an income tax. Why should we have income 795 00:45:13,520 --> 00:45:15,960 Speaker 2: tax and have the citizens pay for the running of 796 00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:19,080 Speaker 2: the government when other countries who benefit from our nation 797 00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:24,360 Speaker 2: could do it. More importantly, tariff's built strength. They shielded 798 00:45:24,360 --> 00:45:28,880 Speaker 2: American manufacturers and kept American production where it needed to be, 799 00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:32,040 Speaker 2: and we grew into an industrial powerhouse because of it. 800 00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:35,760 Speaker 2: Fast forward to the modern era. For decades, Washington elites 801 00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:39,520 Speaker 2: embracing free trade as a moral good, ignoring the reality 802 00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:42,400 Speaker 2: that trade has not been and never will be free. 803 00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:47,440 Speaker 2: It is manipulable. China subsidized exports, used child labor, stole 804 00:45:47,480 --> 00:45:51,040 Speaker 2: intellectual property, and suppressed currency. How has that helped us? 805 00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:55,080 Speaker 2: It put factories out of business. Other nations imposed high 806 00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:58,400 Speaker 2: tariffs on American goods while demanding open access to our markets, 807 00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:00,880 Speaker 2: and we had idiot presidents that went along with it. 808 00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:03,759 Speaker 2: And I'm sorry if you're a Democrat or Republican, I 809 00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:06,120 Speaker 2: don't care which party you're from. If you were like, yeah, 810 00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:09,040 Speaker 2: let's do that. Let's let them have all of our 811 00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:12,680 Speaker 2: customers and make and allow them to charge us through 812 00:46:12,680 --> 00:46:15,120 Speaker 2: the nose to send our products over there. Who thought 813 00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:17,239 Speaker 2: the American worker was going to benefit in the end 814 00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:21,000 Speaker 2: by doing that. It's terrible policy and it's not free trade. 815 00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:24,800 Speaker 2: It's exploitation of our workers. So when President Trump imposed 816 00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:28,400 Speaker 2: tariffs on steel and aluminum and key Chinese goods, the 817 00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:35,080 Speaker 2: economists all predicted disaster, But instead what happened manufacturing jobs rebounded. 818 00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:39,520 Speaker 2: Bueer of Labor Statistics Data says that US manufacturing employment 819 00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:45,000 Speaker 2: rose significantly all through Trump's first term, particularly endurable goods sectors, 820 00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:51,320 Speaker 2: particularly still production. And guess what capital investment returned? Meaning 821 00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:55,680 Speaker 2: companies came back to the US to build factories. Even 822 00:46:55,719 --> 00:47:01,600 Speaker 2: more important, leverage Returned grafts are not punishment. They are 823 00:47:01,719 --> 00:47:07,800 Speaker 2: negotiation tools, and they work. And when Trump applied them, 824 00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:12,719 Speaker 2: trading partners came to the table. The USMCA replaced NAFTA 825 00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:17,080 Speaker 2: with a stronger labor protection in better terms for American producers. 826 00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:21,200 Speaker 2: China signed the Phase one Agreement, committed to increasing US 827 00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:26,840 Speaker 2: purchases and structural reforms. That didn't happen because America asked nicely. 828 00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:28,680 Speaker 2: We didn't go over and say, oh, will you please. 829 00:47:29,480 --> 00:47:33,080 Speaker 2: It happened because America said, you're not going to get 830 00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:36,520 Speaker 2: access to our markets anymore if you don't. After the 831 00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:39,560 Speaker 2: Supreme Court ruling narrowed one legal path, Trump did what 832 00:47:39,640 --> 00:47:44,360 Speaker 2: all strong leaders do. He found another, using existing trade 833 00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:49,360 Speaker 2: statutes and emergency authorities. His administration signaled that targeted tariffs 834 00:47:49,400 --> 00:47:53,360 Speaker 2: would continue against nations running chronic surpluses against the US, 835 00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:58,040 Speaker 2: engaging in intellectual property theft, or subsidizing industries to undercut 836 00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:02,719 Speaker 2: American competitors. Reckless, it's disciplined, and it's exactly what he 837 00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:05,320 Speaker 2: was already doing. Trump wasn't out there just Will and 838 00:48:05,400 --> 00:48:07,360 Speaker 2: Nelly saying oh, we're just going to teariff you for 839 00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:10,040 Speaker 2: the fun of it. No, he went country by country 840 00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:14,279 Speaker 2: around the entire globe and said, oh, look, Britain, in 841 00:48:14,440 --> 00:48:17,719 Speaker 2: your area of cheese exports, you're getting to send all 842 00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:19,840 Speaker 2: your blah blah blah to our people, but you're not 843 00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:21,640 Speaker 2: letting da da da da da da dat come from 844 00:48:21,640 --> 00:48:24,440 Speaker 2: our people. He got all of that straightened out. In 845 00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:28,760 Speaker 2: nearly every relationship that we had with nearly every country 846 00:48:28,800 --> 00:48:31,439 Speaker 2: on the planet, there was an imbalance. So he went 847 00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:35,000 Speaker 2: through and he evened it out. And countries at first 848 00:48:35,080 --> 00:48:37,160 Speaker 2: were like, well, this isn't the way it used to be, 849 00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:40,319 Speaker 2: and he's like, that's the point. But it's better than 850 00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:43,320 Speaker 2: not having access to our markets at all, right, because 851 00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:46,239 Speaker 2: that's what he could do. The Court said in the 852 00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:49,560 Speaker 2: ruling last week that he has the power to eliminate 853 00:48:49,600 --> 00:48:52,840 Speaker 2: trade from countries. He just didn't have the power based 854 00:48:52,880 --> 00:48:56,280 Speaker 2: on the statute that he cited to exercise a tariff. 855 00:48:56,800 --> 00:49:00,560 Speaker 2: They said, it's not an emergency circumstance. He disagree. He 856 00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:03,400 Speaker 2: believes that it's an emergency that getting the American people 857 00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:05,839 Speaker 2: back to where they need to be, that that's an emergency. 858 00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:08,960 Speaker 2: It's an important priority for him. The court disagreed. They're 859 00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:12,120 Speaker 2: allowed to disagree, but he still has the biggest weapon 860 00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:14,560 Speaker 2: of all. He can shut down trade completely if he 861 00:49:14,600 --> 00:49:18,200 Speaker 2: wants to. Critics, are you tariff's raised prices? What they 862 00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:22,040 Speaker 2: ignore is what unchecked imports have done. They've hallowed out communities, 863 00:49:22,080 --> 00:49:26,960 Speaker 2: They've shuttered factories, They've made wages stagnant, and opioid stricken 864 00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:30,160 Speaker 2: towns across the Midwest have suffered because of it. They're 865 00:49:30,200 --> 00:49:32,640 Speaker 2: only one tool. They're not the only tool, but they're 866 00:49:32,680 --> 00:49:35,120 Speaker 2: a very important one. And they say to the world, 867 00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:40,520 Speaker 2: we welcome trade, but we will expect fairness, and perhaps 868 00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:45,440 Speaker 2: most important, they say to American workers, you matter. For 869 00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:48,400 Speaker 2: too long, Middle America felt sacrificed on the altar of 870 00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:53,400 Speaker 2: global efficiency, and Trump's tariff policy reversed that psychology. It 871 00:49:53,480 --> 00:49:57,080 Speaker 2: told factory towns, farm community, small businesses that the White 872 00:49:57,120 --> 00:50:00,480 Speaker 2: House sees them, and that matters more than spread sheets. 873 00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:05,680 Speaker 2: America isn't retreating, it's rebalancing, and we finally have a 874 00:50:05,719 --> 00:50:09,000 Speaker 2: president willing to endure little criticism and a few legal 875 00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:11,880 Speaker 2: battles and a lot of elite mockery in order to 876 00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:16,279 Speaker 2: defend American labor. That's not checkers that's strategy. And as 877 00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:19,640 Speaker 2: the dust settles after the Court's decision, one thing is clear. 878 00:50:19,760 --> 00:50:24,280 Speaker 2: The tariffs will go forward and America will keep winning, 879 00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:28,040 Speaker 2: which is what we voted him there to have done. 880 00:50:28,080 --> 00:50:31,239 Speaker 2: To begin with, Cavin mccallough, We've got a lot more 881 00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:31,560 Speaker 2: to get to. 882 00:50:31,640 --> 00:50:56,200 Speaker 10: Don't go anywhere here. 883 00:50:56,239 --> 00:51:04,120 Speaker 2: He is from New York. Kevin, Kevin McCullough, Welcome back 884 00:51:04,120 --> 00:51:07,080 Speaker 2: to Times Square. It's that Kevin Show, that kevinshow dot com. 885 00:51:07,200 --> 00:51:10,600 Speaker 2: And as we are liking to do every single week, 886 00:51:10,640 --> 00:51:13,600 Speaker 2: we check in with the America First Policy Institute on 887 00:51:13,640 --> 00:51:16,600 Speaker 2: a whole bevy of issues. And as I was in 888 00:51:16,680 --> 00:51:20,440 Speaker 2: Nashville last week and getting the rundown kind of secondhand 889 00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:23,239 Speaker 2: that the Supreme Court looked like it was going to 890 00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:28,280 Speaker 2: overturn the President on his decision about tariffs, I started 891 00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:30,960 Speaker 2: digging in deep. You just heard my monologue this hour. 892 00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:33,280 Speaker 2: I have very strong opinions about it. I do think 893 00:51:33,560 --> 00:51:35,879 Speaker 2: that the President's on the right track, but let's get 894 00:51:35,880 --> 00:51:38,680 Speaker 2: some expert opinion. Brian Kelsey's part of the America First 895 00:51:38,680 --> 00:51:41,760 Speaker 2: Policy Institute and he joins us for the first time. Brian, welcome, 896 00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:46,239 Speaker 2: It's good to have you. It seems like the administration 897 00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:49,600 Speaker 2: kind of from the get go thought that maybe they 898 00:51:49,640 --> 00:51:51,880 Speaker 2: would need more than one plan to see to it 899 00:51:51,960 --> 00:51:55,319 Speaker 2: that tariffs would stick. And for people that are not 900 00:51:55,360 --> 00:51:59,399 Speaker 2: initiated like me, as to the real legal minutia here 901 00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:02,520 Speaker 2: talk to about the statute. They tried to make the 902 00:52:02,560 --> 00:52:05,400 Speaker 2: claim with the court overturned them, and now they've they've 903 00:52:05,520 --> 00:52:09,680 Speaker 2: taken other statutory authority and basically re implemented the tariffs. 904 00:52:09,719 --> 00:52:11,760 Speaker 2: But what break it down for the everyday person? 905 00:52:11,960 --> 00:52:16,719 Speaker 11: Sure, and I do think that the President expected this decision, unfortunately, 906 00:52:16,800 --> 00:52:18,319 Speaker 11: and was prepared to handle that. 907 00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:20,440 Speaker 9: And thank you again, Kevin so much for having me 908 00:52:20,480 --> 00:52:20,919 Speaker 9: on your show. 909 00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:24,480 Speaker 11: I really appreciate the opportunity to talk about it. So, 910 00:52:24,520 --> 00:52:27,440 Speaker 11: the particular law that the President in voked for the 911 00:52:27,560 --> 00:52:29,000 Speaker 11: prior tariffs is called. 912 00:52:28,960 --> 00:52:33,440 Speaker 9: AIPA, and under that law, it had. 913 00:52:33,280 --> 00:52:35,759 Speaker 11: A phrase in there that the court broke down that 914 00:52:35,880 --> 00:52:39,520 Speaker 11: said that the president can regulate importation. 915 00:52:39,840 --> 00:52:42,000 Speaker 9: And that might seem a little bit vague on its face, 916 00:52:42,080 --> 00:52:42,640 Speaker 9: but as. 917 00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:46,120 Speaker 11: We are argued in the America First Policy Institute in 918 00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:48,760 Speaker 11: an Amikas brief in favor of the Department of Justice 919 00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:51,920 Speaker 11: in the President's position, that phrase is thrown in among 920 00:52:52,040 --> 00:52:55,000 Speaker 11: a number of other verbs that are very strongly worded, 921 00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:57,440 Speaker 11: and they're very broad in terms of how they apply. 922 00:52:57,520 --> 00:53:00,719 Speaker 11: And as the President said on Friday, under he can 923 00:53:00,719 --> 00:53:03,480 Speaker 11: flat out prohibit imports from coming in from a country 924 00:53:03,560 --> 00:53:04,439 Speaker 11: all together. 925 00:53:04,200 --> 00:53:04,840 Speaker 9: If he wants to. 926 00:53:05,200 --> 00:53:07,319 Speaker 11: So, it made perfect sense to us, and we think 927 00:53:07,360 --> 00:53:10,600 Speaker 11: that the correct ruling was the one of those three 928 00:53:10,640 --> 00:53:13,200 Speaker 11: members of the court in the descent who said that 929 00:53:13,520 --> 00:53:16,760 Speaker 11: because that language is so broad, that this phrase regulate 930 00:53:16,840 --> 00:53:21,839 Speaker 11: importation that includes the ability to impose tariffs on those 931 00:53:21,880 --> 00:53:22,840 Speaker 11: imports as they're coming in. 932 00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:24,640 Speaker 2: Woul seemed to make sense that if he can shut 933 00:53:24,680 --> 00:53:27,120 Speaker 2: it off all together, and the Court seem to agree 934 00:53:27,120 --> 00:53:29,600 Speaker 2: with that, that he would then be able to do 935 00:53:29,680 --> 00:53:33,680 Speaker 2: something in between not tariff and shut it down all together. 936 00:53:33,719 --> 00:53:35,880 Speaker 2: It seems to me like there should be some degree 937 00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:39,520 Speaker 2: of gradient understanding of his power in that moment as well. 938 00:53:39,760 --> 00:53:42,120 Speaker 11: That's right, and that's what Justice Kavanaugh really laid out 939 00:53:42,120 --> 00:53:46,840 Speaker 11: in his descending opinion that was joined by Justices Alito 940 00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:48,960 Speaker 11: and Thomas. And I think the President was right in 941 00:53:49,040 --> 00:53:52,040 Speaker 11: saying that sometimes when you read a descending opinion, it's 942 00:53:52,040 --> 00:53:54,160 Speaker 11: not all that persuasive. In this particular case, I think 943 00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:56,200 Speaker 11: it was very persuasive, and I think that those three 944 00:53:56,280 --> 00:53:58,879 Speaker 11: members got it right and the other six got it wrong. 945 00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:01,839 Speaker 11: But nonetheless, the six were in the majority, and they 946 00:54:01,920 --> 00:54:06,280 Speaker 11: ruled that that that phrase regulate importation does not include 947 00:54:06,280 --> 00:54:10,440 Speaker 11: the ability to impose tariffs under this particular law AIPA. However, 948 00:54:11,120 --> 00:54:14,520 Speaker 11: Justice Kavanaugh pointed out, there are actually five other laws 949 00:54:14,920 --> 00:54:19,239 Speaker 11: under which the president can impose tariffs, and in there 950 00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:21,720 Speaker 11: are various conditions that apply to those particular laws. 951 00:54:21,920 --> 00:54:25,600 Speaker 2: And to be clear, this ruling didn't address any of 952 00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:29,400 Speaker 2: the presidential powers. Whether the question is whether he is 953 00:54:29,440 --> 00:54:32,600 Speaker 2: allowed or is not allowed. They simply said, as it 954 00:54:32,640 --> 00:54:36,000 Speaker 2: pertained to that law and that bit of language, he 955 00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:37,400 Speaker 2: was misapplying it. 956 00:54:37,719 --> 00:54:38,160 Speaker 9: That's right. 957 00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:41,040 Speaker 11: And Justice Kavanaugh again went further and said that these 958 00:54:41,080 --> 00:54:45,280 Speaker 11: other laws flat out do allow the president to impose tariffs. 959 00:54:45,400 --> 00:54:47,560 Speaker 11: So you've got three members that are really already kind 960 00:54:47,560 --> 00:54:50,440 Speaker 11: of on record having said that, but yes, you're absolutely 961 00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:54,880 Speaker 11: right for the majority opinion, those six justices they dropped 962 00:54:54,920 --> 00:54:58,480 Speaker 11: a footnote that said expressly, we are not taking any 963 00:54:58,520 --> 00:55:02,000 Speaker 11: position whatsoever the other on these other five laws that 964 00:55:02,040 --> 00:55:05,879 Speaker 11: are out there, and so that's why the president immediately 965 00:55:06,560 --> 00:55:09,920 Speaker 11: imposed tariffs. He initially said ten percent tariffs, and then 966 00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:12,719 Speaker 11: he raised them over the weekend to fifteen percent tariffs 967 00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:16,080 Speaker 11: on all countries across the board. Because there's very little 968 00:55:16,160 --> 00:55:20,160 Speaker 11: doubt that he can do that under the other laws. 969 00:55:20,280 --> 00:55:23,000 Speaker 2: Is doing it under this other statute that he's now cited. 970 00:55:23,040 --> 00:55:25,400 Speaker 2: I'm going to have you explain that to us. Does 971 00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:28,440 Speaker 2: the current statute that he's citing, is he required to 972 00:55:28,440 --> 00:55:31,160 Speaker 2: have it all at the same amount for all countries 973 00:55:31,320 --> 00:55:33,960 Speaker 2: or is there still that flexibility for him? 974 00:55:34,280 --> 00:55:37,000 Speaker 11: Well, there is still flexibility, but it is cavin do 975 00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:38,799 Speaker 11: in a little bit, and it depends on which of 976 00:55:38,800 --> 00:55:41,080 Speaker 11: the ones that he invokes. So the first one and 977 00:55:41,120 --> 00:55:43,839 Speaker 11: the easiest one that he invoked is Section one twenty 978 00:55:43,880 --> 00:55:46,959 Speaker 11: two the Trade Act of nineteen seventy four, and under 979 00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:50,600 Speaker 11: that one he can impose tariffs up to fifteen percent, 980 00:55:50,680 --> 00:55:54,800 Speaker 11: which he has now gone up to, for any country 981 00:55:55,760 --> 00:55:58,799 Speaker 11: really without having to specify much of anything other than 982 00:55:59,200 --> 00:56:02,840 Speaker 11: to say that they've been unfair with us. And he 983 00:56:02,880 --> 00:56:05,359 Speaker 11: can do that for up to one hundred and fifty days. 984 00:56:05,360 --> 00:56:07,680 Speaker 11: So he could, in theory that he has not done this, 985 00:56:07,760 --> 00:56:10,520 Speaker 11: he could, in theory impose a fifteen percent tariff on 986 00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:12,760 Speaker 11: one country, as you mentioned, and then you know, zero 987 00:56:12,920 --> 00:56:14,520 Speaker 11: on another country if he wanted to do. 988 00:56:14,480 --> 00:56:17,040 Speaker 2: That, but he shows to just do it across the board. 989 00:56:17,320 --> 00:56:19,200 Speaker 11: That's right, yes, And as I said, I mean, that's 990 00:56:19,239 --> 00:56:22,279 Speaker 11: the that's the first and easiest move for him to make. 991 00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:25,640 Speaker 9: The downside is that the upside. 992 00:56:25,400 --> 00:56:27,839 Speaker 11: Is that it's he can do it very quickly, as 993 00:56:27,880 --> 00:56:29,800 Speaker 11: he has done, and so this will go into effect, 994 00:56:29,800 --> 00:56:33,479 Speaker 11: you know, basically immediately. But the downside is it's capped 995 00:56:33,480 --> 00:56:35,439 Speaker 11: at one hundred and fifty days and it is capped 996 00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:39,640 Speaker 11: at fifteen percent. So that's why he's he is he's 997 00:56:39,680 --> 00:56:42,200 Speaker 11: going to rely on these some variation of these other 998 00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:43,439 Speaker 11: four statutes as well. 999 00:56:43,600 --> 00:56:46,080 Speaker 2: Are those other four stratiutes? What do they say? How 1000 00:56:46,120 --> 00:56:47,720 Speaker 2: does how does it empower him? 1001 00:56:47,960 --> 00:56:51,000 Speaker 11: They've so there's one that section three oh one of 1002 00:56:51,120 --> 00:56:55,759 Speaker 11: the Trade Act of nineteen seventy four. That one is 1003 00:56:55,840 --> 00:56:58,640 Speaker 11: it's related to the earlier one that we just mentioned, 1004 00:56:59,440 --> 00:57:02,080 Speaker 11: section one two, but it's it says you could go 1005 00:57:02,160 --> 00:57:04,600 Speaker 11: higher than that and for longer than that, but it 1006 00:57:04,640 --> 00:57:08,279 Speaker 11: does require an actual finding that these other countries have 1007 00:57:08,360 --> 00:57:09,680 Speaker 11: been taking advantage of America. 1008 00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:11,319 Speaker 9: And you know, as a side note, I mean, this 1009 00:57:11,400 --> 00:57:12,839 Speaker 9: is exactly why America. 1010 00:57:12,560 --> 00:57:16,120 Speaker 11: First Policy Institute has supported the President's position on this 1011 00:57:16,240 --> 00:57:19,360 Speaker 11: is because we have been taken advantage of by many 1012 00:57:19,400 --> 00:57:20,000 Speaker 11: other entries. 1013 00:57:20,720 --> 00:57:22,400 Speaker 2: For him to prove it, I mean, all we've got 1014 00:57:22,440 --> 00:57:24,880 Speaker 2: receipts what you paid to get in and what we 1015 00:57:25,000 --> 00:57:25,800 Speaker 2: paid to get out. 1016 00:57:25,880 --> 00:57:28,600 Speaker 9: Like that's that's it exactly. 1017 00:57:28,640 --> 00:57:31,080 Speaker 11: And you know, so you saw, you know, on India 1018 00:57:31,200 --> 00:57:33,960 Speaker 11: was the most recent trade win here just a few 1019 00:57:33,960 --> 00:57:37,120 Speaker 11: weeks ago, where the President was able to convince India, 1020 00:57:37,120 --> 00:57:39,720 Speaker 11: which had had very high tariff rates on US for 1021 00:57:39,800 --> 00:57:43,240 Speaker 11: many years, to basically go to zero for most goods. 1022 00:57:43,320 --> 00:57:44,960 Speaker 11: And so, I mean it's really he's had some really 1023 00:57:44,960 --> 00:57:49,000 Speaker 11: phenomenal wins. And so under this one he would the 1024 00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:50,840 Speaker 11: Section three one, he would have to go through the 1025 00:57:50,920 --> 00:57:52,120 Speaker 11: US Trade Representative. 1026 00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:52,920 Speaker 9: There does have to be. 1027 00:57:52,920 --> 00:57:56,160 Speaker 11: An investigation that takes place to actually look at, okay, 1028 00:57:56,160 --> 00:57:58,520 Speaker 11: what tarif rates are in place and on what goods 1029 00:57:59,120 --> 00:58:01,560 Speaker 11: and are these on or are they not? And so 1030 00:58:02,040 --> 00:58:04,760 Speaker 11: it would take you know, sometimes as much as seven months. 1031 00:58:04,800 --> 00:58:07,360 Speaker 11: I think he mentioned specifically, five months is what the 1032 00:58:07,400 --> 00:58:09,880 Speaker 11: President mentioned, So that one will take a little while 1033 00:58:09,920 --> 00:58:12,120 Speaker 11: to play those out, but once they do play out, 1034 00:58:12,560 --> 00:58:14,680 Speaker 11: they can go much higher than fifteen percent, and they 1035 00:58:14,720 --> 00:58:15,760 Speaker 11: can go for longer than. 1036 00:58:15,800 --> 00:58:19,200 Speaker 2: What about for the really bad actors like China, who 1037 00:58:19,360 --> 00:58:22,400 Speaker 2: we have so much evidence of how they've taken advantage 1038 00:58:22,400 --> 00:58:26,920 Speaker 2: of us, from manipulation of currency to the theft of 1039 00:58:26,960 --> 00:58:30,800 Speaker 2: intellectual property and so forth. He's threatened very large tariffs 1040 00:58:30,800 --> 00:58:33,000 Speaker 2: on them, you know, one hundred and two hundred percent 1041 00:58:33,360 --> 00:58:35,480 Speaker 2: if they don't play nice. Does this give them like 1042 00:58:35,920 --> 00:58:37,360 Speaker 2: a get out of jail free card? 1043 00:58:38,600 --> 00:58:38,960 Speaker 9: Well? 1044 00:58:39,400 --> 00:58:41,000 Speaker 11: No, I mean, I do think he's just going to 1045 00:58:41,080 --> 00:58:44,480 Speaker 11: have to be a little bit more you know, expansive 1046 00:58:44,520 --> 00:58:46,360 Speaker 11: in all the laws that he relies on. For example, 1047 00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:51,560 Speaker 11: the other one that the Secretary doesn't mentioned this weekend 1048 00:58:51,720 --> 00:58:53,760 Speaker 11: is section two thirty two, and that's of the Trade 1049 00:58:53,800 --> 00:58:58,080 Speaker 11: Expansion Act of nineteen sixty two. That for that one, 1050 00:58:58,360 --> 00:59:01,439 Speaker 11: you do have to make a connection to a threat 1051 00:59:01,520 --> 00:59:04,320 Speaker 11: to national security. So you think back to some of 1052 00:59:04,320 --> 00:59:07,400 Speaker 11: the first term you mentioned Trump's first term tariffs on steel, 1053 00:59:07,760 --> 00:59:10,360 Speaker 11: those types of things, they can be evoked there because 1054 00:59:10,440 --> 00:59:13,280 Speaker 11: you know, if you're if you are saying that steel 1055 00:59:13,440 --> 00:59:16,600 Speaker 11: is part of our infrastructure that we need to run 1056 00:59:16,640 --> 00:59:19,040 Speaker 11: the military, to build tanks, that sorts of thing in 1057 00:59:19,080 --> 00:59:24,000 Speaker 11: the airplanes and in boats, we can impost tariffs of 1058 00:59:24,080 --> 00:59:27,800 Speaker 11: huge amounts on those particular goods. So that's how I 1059 00:59:27,840 --> 00:59:30,600 Speaker 11: think those would come into play there in regards to China. 1060 00:59:31,280 --> 00:59:38,200 Speaker 2: Okay, that's interesting. What what does the forecast foretell about 1061 00:59:38,240 --> 00:59:42,360 Speaker 2: whether or not these new statutes will hold up? Are 1062 00:59:42,400 --> 00:59:46,360 Speaker 2: there people already queuing up for lawsuits? Are the enemies 1063 00:59:46,360 --> 00:59:49,320 Speaker 2: of these tariffs desiring to try to bring them down 1064 00:59:49,360 --> 00:59:51,400 Speaker 2: as well? And how do you think they fare if 1065 00:59:51,400 --> 00:59:52,320 Speaker 2: and when they go to court? 1066 00:59:52,600 --> 00:59:55,200 Speaker 11: Well, it's America, so any so everyone's always going to 1067 00:59:55,200 --> 00:59:56,960 Speaker 11: be suing over every one of these. 1068 00:59:57,040 --> 00:59:57,320 Speaker 2: I think. 1069 00:59:57,520 --> 00:59:59,000 Speaker 9: I think you can guarantee that. 1070 00:59:59,400 --> 01:00:02,240 Speaker 11: But the reason that the President has relied on these 1071 01:00:02,480 --> 01:00:06,840 Speaker 11: three particular statutes is because that these statues actually have 1072 01:00:06,960 --> 01:00:09,680 Speaker 11: been challenged in court before and they have been upheld. 1073 01:00:09,680 --> 01:00:11,960 Speaker 11: So I think that those three that I just mentioned, 1074 01:00:12,160 --> 01:00:14,360 Speaker 11: assuming that he follows the conditions that are in place 1075 01:00:14,400 --> 01:00:17,600 Speaker 11: for them, which he's said that he will do, that 1076 01:00:17,640 --> 01:00:20,480 Speaker 11: those three I think will ultimately be upheld. And as 1077 01:00:20,520 --> 01:00:23,400 Speaker 11: I say, Justice Kavanaugh mentioned that in his descending opinion 1078 01:00:23,400 --> 01:00:28,520 Speaker 11: by the Supreme Court he said that they're perfectly legal. Right, yeah, Yeah, 1079 01:00:28,600 --> 01:00:30,200 Speaker 11: these are other laws that are out there and they 1080 01:00:30,200 --> 01:00:33,360 Speaker 11: exist now. At America First Policy Institute, we actually had 1081 01:00:33,640 --> 01:00:35,680 Speaker 11: an amicus brief that was followed on our behalf that 1082 01:00:35,840 --> 01:00:38,880 Speaker 11: argued a different section section three thirty eight of the 1083 01:00:38,960 --> 01:00:41,440 Speaker 11: tar Fact of nineteen thirty and Justice Kavanaugh mentioned that 1084 01:00:41,480 --> 01:00:43,560 Speaker 11: one as well, and Justice Alito even asked a question 1085 01:00:43,640 --> 01:00:46,760 Speaker 11: about it during the argument, And in that one as 1086 01:00:46,800 --> 01:00:50,720 Speaker 11: well requires no waiting period and it only has a 1087 01:00:50,760 --> 01:00:53,480 Speaker 11: limit of up to fifty percent, but he could pretty 1088 01:00:53,520 --> 01:00:57,240 Speaker 11: much impost tariffs against any country for virtually any reason, 1089 01:00:57,800 --> 01:01:00,000 Speaker 11: at any time up to fifty percent under that one. 1090 01:01:00,120 --> 01:01:02,760 Speaker 11: I will say that one, in particular has not been 1091 01:01:02,840 --> 01:01:05,960 Speaker 11: challenged in court, and so perhaps that's why that is 1092 01:01:06,000 --> 01:01:07,120 Speaker 11: not one of the five. 1093 01:01:07,000 --> 01:01:09,920 Speaker 9: That he has mentioned here recently that he would rely on. 1094 01:01:10,000 --> 01:01:11,760 Speaker 11: So I think, you know, I do think while we 1095 01:01:11,800 --> 01:01:15,080 Speaker 11: believe that that one maybe even his strongest one, it 1096 01:01:15,120 --> 01:01:17,360 Speaker 11: does appear that he has decided that he's going to 1097 01:01:17,440 --> 01:01:18,000 Speaker 11: go with. 1098 01:01:18,480 --> 01:01:20,320 Speaker 9: The tariffs that are tried and trud that have already 1099 01:01:20,360 --> 01:01:21,320 Speaker 9: been proven in a more. 1100 01:01:21,320 --> 01:01:23,600 Speaker 2: System All right, Brian Kelsey a f P.

That's 1110 01:02:06,960 --> 01:02:10,640 Speaker 2: the number by which you can help save a starving 1111 01:02:10,720 --> 01:02:14,760 Speaker 2: child's life literally, and not just with the kind of 1112 01:02:15,440 --> 01:02:17,439 Speaker 2: because a lot of these organizations pull up and they, oh, 1113 01:02:17,440 --> 01:02:19,240 Speaker 2: we're going to give you a meal a day. Wow, 1114 01:02:19,680 --> 01:02:23,080 Speaker 2: aren't you grateful? Haha? No, no, No, Food for the 1115 01:02:23,080 --> 01:02:26,120 Speaker 2: poor knows that a couple of meals a day is 1116 01:02:26,120 --> 01:02:28,480 Speaker 2: what it needs to really be to help children. And 1117 01:02:28,520 --> 01:02:30,920 Speaker 2: so every one of these kids that we're talking about, 1118 01:02:31,760 --> 01:02:35,240 Speaker 2: your seventy five dollars gift for that child is going 1119 01:02:35,280 --> 01:02:38,520 Speaker 2: to deliver two meals per day for the next year 1120 01:02:38,880 --> 01:02:42,240 Speaker 2: and all the clean drinking water that they can consume, 1121 01:02:42,760 --> 01:02:45,240 Speaker 2: which is which they need that as well. I mean, 1122 01:02:45,280 --> 01:02:47,800 Speaker 2: think about what you spend for a bottle of Poland 1123 01:02:47,800 --> 01:02:50,160 Speaker 2: spring or you know, the Walmart brand, Like if you 1124 01:02:50,200 --> 01:02:53,200 Speaker 2: were me, like you know, Wegmans, Okay, whatever the cheapest is, 1125 01:02:53,200 --> 01:02:55,320 Speaker 2: that's what I buy. But it's still like a couple 1126 01:02:55,320 --> 01:02:57,880 Speaker 2: of bucks per you know, every eight or sixteen ounces, 1127 01:02:58,440 --> 01:03:03,320 Speaker 2: and you that wouldn't satisfy a child in this circumstance 1128 01:03:03,360 --> 01:03:06,680 Speaker 2: at all. So you're getting a lot of value physical 1129 01:03:06,760 --> 01:03:10,360 Speaker 2: value for the money. But rejoining us our Danny Patino 1130 01:03:10,480 --> 01:03:16,600 Speaker 2: and okay he asked for it, mister P. Yes, you 1131 01:03:16,640 --> 01:03:20,160 Speaker 2: can live with that one. Friend. Anyway, I was telling 1132 01:03:20,160 --> 01:03:23,720 Speaker 2: people about our trip to Codwa. Before we left Codwa, 1133 01:03:23,800 --> 01:03:25,880 Speaker 2: was this little town that we drove after we drove 1134 01:03:26,120 --> 01:03:28,800 Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty days into the wilderness, we even 1135 01:03:28,880 --> 01:03:31,000 Speaker 2: got out of the truck and walked another three days 1136 01:03:31,000 --> 01:03:33,000 Speaker 2: in the wilderness, and when we got to the other side, 1137 01:03:33,120 --> 01:03:34,680 Speaker 2: it was really just a couple miles. But when we 1138 01:03:34,720 --> 01:03:37,840 Speaker 2: got to the other side, there was this little schoolhouse 1139 01:03:37,880 --> 01:03:41,040 Speaker 2: and the pastor of the town, whose name is slipping me, 1140 01:03:41,080 --> 01:03:44,520 Speaker 2: but I'm sure mister p remembers Pastor Joseph, Pastor Joseph, 1141 01:03:44,960 --> 01:03:48,480 Speaker 2: and he says he welcomes us, and we're talking and 1142 01:03:48,480 --> 01:03:51,800 Speaker 2: we're asking how hard it is to teach school to kids, 1143 01:03:52,080 --> 01:03:54,400 Speaker 2: particularly in this remote region. And I forget what the 1144 01:03:54,440 --> 01:03:58,960 Speaker 2: crop was. Maybe you remember, Paul Gri sugarcane had been 1145 01:04:00,280 --> 01:04:03,280 Speaker 2: there was a processing plant in the region, and they 1146 01:04:03,280 --> 01:04:06,480 Speaker 2: had grown massive amounts of sugar cane. But because of 1147 01:04:06,520 --> 01:04:09,720 Speaker 2: the storms, the hurricanes and some other things that had 1148 01:04:09,760 --> 01:04:12,160 Speaker 2: all been wiped out, and so this town that had 1149 01:04:12,240 --> 01:04:16,200 Speaker 2: mostly relied on that for its existence was just shriveling up. 1150 01:04:16,640 --> 01:04:19,400 Speaker 2: And these kids, one of them, was trying to get 1151 01:04:19,440 --> 01:04:22,320 Speaker 2: a drink of water out of this putrid and I 1152 01:04:22,320 --> 01:04:25,560 Speaker 2: don't use that word lightly, but this putrid watering hole 1153 01:04:25,600 --> 01:04:28,320 Speaker 2: behind the school where I had seen a dog just 1154 01:04:28,520 --> 01:04:30,560 Speaker 2: walk through it and do its business and then move on, 1155 01:04:30,600 --> 01:04:32,080 Speaker 2: and this kid was going to drink some water out 1156 01:04:32,080 --> 01:04:35,960 Speaker 2: of it. And I just it was so heart wrenching 1157 01:04:36,680 --> 01:04:40,560 Speaker 2: to watch this. And so I came back to my 1158 01:04:40,720 --> 01:04:42,560 Speaker 2: New York audience. We were just on in New York 1159 01:04:42,560 --> 01:04:45,200 Speaker 2: at the time, and I told them all about Codway, 1160 01:04:45,200 --> 01:04:47,040 Speaker 2: I told them about these kids. I told them about 1161 01:04:47,040 --> 01:04:50,919 Speaker 2: this mom that was trying to cook stuff inside of 1162 01:04:52,120 --> 01:04:54,640 Speaker 2: this hut that she had was not really a house, 1163 01:04:54,680 --> 01:04:56,400 Speaker 2: It was more like a hut, but she was like 1164 01:04:56,520 --> 01:04:59,720 Speaker 2: using manure as fuel to cook the food, and was 1165 01:04:59,760 --> 01:05:03,200 Speaker 2: like was so everything about it was just it just 1166 01:05:03,520 --> 01:05:06,480 Speaker 2: wrenched my heart from one end to the other. And 1167 01:05:06,760 --> 01:05:11,480 Speaker 2: we told the listeners in New York about it, and 1168 01:05:11,520 --> 01:05:14,320 Speaker 2: they and they caught fire. They caught the vision. They 1169 01:05:14,320 --> 01:05:17,360 Speaker 2: said this is how we can help. And one year later, 1170 01:05:17,960 --> 01:05:21,240 Speaker 2: we go back, Paul, you go back and Phil Boyce's 1171 01:05:21,280 --> 01:05:23,440 Speaker 2: with me at that time, and we and we go 1172 01:05:23,520 --> 01:05:29,560 Speaker 2: together and we see a water purification system operating, and 1173 01:05:29,600 --> 01:05:32,720 Speaker 2: we see moms that have kids that have put a 1174 01:05:32,720 --> 01:05:35,760 Speaker 2: little weight on now because they've been getting feeding for 1175 01:05:35,800 --> 01:05:39,480 Speaker 2: the last year. And we see a cleaned up village 1176 01:05:39,480 --> 01:05:42,000 Speaker 2: that has a lot more like activity going, like it 1177 01:05:42,240 --> 01:05:45,640 Speaker 2: just come back to life simply because they had clean 1178 01:05:45,720 --> 01:05:47,360 Speaker 2: water and a little bit of food for their kids. 1179 01:05:47,600 --> 01:05:50,320 Speaker 2: And it wasn't that the adults were They were still 1180 01:05:50,320 --> 01:05:52,800 Speaker 2: out trying to work and do gardens and do all 1181 01:05:52,840 --> 01:05:54,960 Speaker 2: the stuff that they could do. But the difference was 1182 01:05:55,040 --> 01:05:57,720 Speaker 2: day and night in just one year. In just one year, 1183 01:05:58,120 --> 01:06:01,200 Speaker 2: and when I think Paul about there had to be 1184 01:06:01,240 --> 01:06:04,720 Speaker 2: what maybe thirty or forty kids in that village. Imagine 1185 01:06:04,760 --> 01:06:08,560 Speaker 2: now that time's seventy and eighty and one hundred, which 1186 01:06:08,600 --> 01:06:10,480 Speaker 2: is the number of kids we're trying to feed this 1187 01:06:10,600 --> 01:06:12,920 Speaker 2: year and get clean water for, and the difference it's 1188 01:06:12,960 --> 01:06:16,360 Speaker 2: going to make in their life. That's my tangible remembrance 1189 01:06:16,480 --> 01:06:18,920 Speaker 2: of how Food for the Poor works at its best 1190 01:06:18,960 --> 01:06:21,280 Speaker 2: With the people that we're talking to today. The listeners 1191 01:06:21,280 --> 01:06:23,720 Speaker 2: who make it happen, and I want to multiply that 1192 01:06:24,040 --> 01:06:26,320 Speaker 2: for all seven hundred and twenty kids that we're trying 1193 01:06:26,360 --> 01:06:27,040 Speaker 2: to reach this year. 1194 01:06:27,720 --> 01:06:30,880 Speaker 7: The three hour journey to Kadua Haiti was nothing compared 1195 01:06:30,960 --> 01:06:34,640 Speaker 7: to the thirty year journey that Pastor Joseph prayed for 1196 01:06:34,720 --> 01:06:38,760 Speaker 7: his community to receive resources. And then what was really 1197 01:06:38,840 --> 01:06:42,320 Speaker 7: striking to me was the prayer and the scripture he 1198 01:06:42,400 --> 01:06:47,440 Speaker 7: prayed Isaiah fifty five, verse five, Behold, a nation shall 1199 01:06:47,480 --> 01:06:50,040 Speaker 7: call you, shall call a nation that you do not know, 1200 01:06:50,440 --> 01:06:53,200 Speaker 7: A nation that does not know you, shall run to you, 1201 01:06:53,520 --> 01:06:55,520 Speaker 7: because the Lord, your God, of the Holy One of 1202 01:06:55,560 --> 01:07:00,360 Speaker 7: Israel has glorified you. There are more Kadwa eighties. There 1203 01:07:00,400 --> 01:07:03,840 Speaker 7: are more communities that have pastures that are on their 1204 01:07:03,920 --> 01:07:07,320 Speaker 7: knees for their families and for the families that they 1205 01:07:07,400 --> 01:07:10,880 Speaker 7: serve in the communities. There are more mothers that are 1206 01:07:10,920 --> 01:07:15,160 Speaker 7: with their children boiling rocks in hope that their children 1207 01:07:15,200 --> 01:07:19,080 Speaker 7: will fall asleep out of sheer desperation because they don't 1208 01:07:19,160 --> 01:07:22,440 Speaker 7: have the food that they can put in their bellies, 1209 01:07:22,640 --> 01:07:24,840 Speaker 7: but they can at least give them some sense that 1210 01:07:25,000 --> 01:07:29,520 Speaker 7: there's hope for tomorrow. Your gift answers that Prayer of 1211 01:07:29,600 --> 01:07:31,280 Speaker 7: hope eight. 1212 01:07:31,240 --> 01:07:34,480 Speaker 2: Five five nine zero seven four six seven three eight 1213 01:07:34,560 --> 01:07:37,560 Speaker 2: Foy five nine zero seven for six seven three and 1214 01:07:37,640 --> 01:07:40,920 Speaker 2: Danny Patino, this is this is all throughout Central and 1215 01:07:41,000 --> 01:07:45,560 Speaker 2: South America. I mean Guatemala, Honduras, Al Salador. They all 1216 01:07:45,560 --> 01:07:46,800 Speaker 2: have similar challenges to. 1217 01:07:46,720 --> 01:07:50,360 Speaker 13: Haiti, they do, and especially the folks that we visit 1218 01:07:50,720 --> 01:07:53,400 Speaker 13: in Latin America and the Caribbean. Like you said, they 1219 01:07:53,440 --> 01:07:55,400 Speaker 13: all kind of have the same story, but they speak 1220 01:07:55,400 --> 01:07:58,440 Speaker 13: a different language, different cultures, but it's the same idea 1221 01:07:58,480 --> 01:08:00,320 Speaker 13: at the end of the day, has a pair. You 1222 01:08:00,360 --> 01:08:02,360 Speaker 13: want to feed your children, you want them to have 1223 01:08:02,400 --> 01:08:05,120 Speaker 13: a future better than what's going on right now. And 1224 01:08:05,160 --> 01:08:07,560 Speaker 13: that's that one little push that these families get to 1225 01:08:07,600 --> 01:08:10,320 Speaker 13: have when folks like you that you're listening right now, 1226 01:08:10,600 --> 01:08:13,560 Speaker 13: step into their lives and answer their prayers and you 1227 01:08:13,920 --> 01:08:16,800 Speaker 13: have that little push to finally get them out of 1228 01:08:16,800 --> 01:08:19,000 Speaker 13: that cycle of poverty that we want to just break. 1229 01:08:19,280 --> 01:08:22,360 Speaker 2: It makes us difference for the poor, makes such a difference, 1230 01:08:23,080 --> 01:08:25,680 Speaker 2: just that just that little knowledge that that meal and 1231 01:08:25,720 --> 01:08:27,720 Speaker 2: that clean water is coming. And I saw it for 1232 01:08:27,840 --> 01:08:30,840 Speaker 2: myself in Kadua, and I know that that that same 1233 01:08:30,880 --> 01:08:33,080 Speaker 2: thing can happen all over Central and South America this 1234 01:08:33,160 --> 01:08:50,400 Speaker 2: year eight five, five, nine oh seven, four six seven three. 1235 01:08:55,640 --> 01:09:01,439 Speaker 1: Here he is from New York. That Kevin Kevin McCullough. 1236 01:09:04,040 --> 01:09:06,360 Speaker 2: All right, welcome back. It's that Kevin show, that kevinshow 1237 01:09:06,360 --> 01:09:08,799 Speaker 2: dot com. If you want more of what Hillary Kramer 1238 01:09:08,840 --> 01:09:11,200 Speaker 2: has to offer you, you go to Hillary Kramer dot com. 1239 01:09:11,400 --> 01:09:14,320 Speaker 2: Hillary with one L, Pramer with a K, and you 1240 01:09:14,320 --> 01:09:16,400 Speaker 2: can go there right now. Hillary is with us and 1241 01:09:16,479 --> 01:09:19,320 Speaker 2: Hillary We've been talking about different sectors of stocks in 1242 01:09:19,360 --> 01:09:21,320 Speaker 2: recent weeks, and this week it's defense. 1243 01:09:21,760 --> 01:09:24,760 Speaker 6: It is defense, and there's a reason why, which is 1244 01:09:24,800 --> 01:09:26,960 Speaker 6: that we have a build up in the Middle East 1245 01:09:27,360 --> 01:09:31,960 Speaker 6: of our Armada, our new US Navy, including the Geraldius 1246 01:09:31,960 --> 01:09:36,480 Speaker 6: Ford and we have to think about these companies are consumers, 1247 01:09:36,800 --> 01:09:39,920 Speaker 6: right their clients, and they're paid a lot of money 1248 01:09:40,080 --> 01:09:44,759 Speaker 6: for their missiles, for their defense, even their cybersecurity digital 1249 01:09:44,800 --> 01:09:48,920 Speaker 6: defense methodology. So let me start with really the stocks 1250 01:09:48,920 --> 01:09:52,840 Speaker 6: that everyone should have in their portfolio. Of course they 1251 01:09:52,840 --> 01:09:55,720 Speaker 6: are a bit expensive now, but let's just get to it. 1252 01:09:55,880 --> 01:09:59,760 Speaker 6: I've always loved raytheon which is now rtx. RTX is 1253 01:09:59,760 --> 01:10:03,280 Speaker 6: at two hundred and three dollars stock. It's the BMS, 1254 01:10:03,280 --> 01:10:07,360 Speaker 6: it's the biggest one. It's where Raytheon and United Technologies merged. 1255 01:10:07,680 --> 01:10:10,519 Speaker 6: You have Collins, Pratt and Whitney in there. About what 1256 01:10:10,680 --> 01:10:13,559 Speaker 6: you have with Raytheon is a lot of cybersecurity, a 1257 01:10:13,560 --> 01:10:17,880 Speaker 6: lot of software serving the US intelligence community, a lot 1258 01:10:17,920 --> 01:10:21,799 Speaker 6: of good tailwinds there, and I see the stock continuing 1259 01:10:21,840 --> 01:10:25,200 Speaker 6: to rise. The next stock by half is General Dynamics 1260 01:10:25,320 --> 01:10:30,639 Speaker 6: three hundred and fifty one dollars diversified aerospace, so think 1261 01:10:31,120 --> 01:10:35,400 Speaker 6: everything from Gulf Stream jets, which wouldn't be defense, but 1262 01:10:36,040 --> 01:10:39,880 Speaker 6: the Gulf streams are used by corporations, billionaires, and they're 1263 01:10:39,920 --> 01:10:43,120 Speaker 6: also used by divisions of the US government. But the 1264 01:10:43,120 --> 01:10:46,360 Speaker 6: majority of the revenue for General Dynamic it's US contracts 1265 01:10:46,360 --> 01:10:48,759 Speaker 6: for the Department of War. That's really what it comes 1266 01:10:48,760 --> 01:10:52,679 Speaker 6: down to. And there's a huge backlog there. So General 1267 01:10:52,720 --> 01:10:55,360 Speaker 6: Dynamics it's just one that you should own and having 1268 01:10:55,400 --> 01:11:00,200 Speaker 6: your portfolio. Here's another one which is Northrop GRUMMINNOC. It's 1269 01:11:00,200 --> 01:11:05,400 Speaker 6: the world's largest listen to this, Kevin, largest biggest weapons 1270 01:11:05,400 --> 01:11:10,400 Speaker 6: and military technology producer in the world. Okay, it's defend 1271 01:11:10,479 --> 01:11:14,840 Speaker 6: system segment. They have battle management missile systems. This is 1272 01:11:14,880 --> 01:11:19,920 Speaker 6: the company that is going to provide the most firepower 1273 01:11:20,560 --> 01:11:23,040 Speaker 6: directly for the kind of missions that may happen in 1274 01:11:23,040 --> 01:11:26,800 Speaker 6: the Middle East as we go into next week and 1275 01:11:26,840 --> 01:11:30,599 Speaker 6: if the discussions break down. We're talking about. Northrop has 1276 01:11:30,840 --> 01:11:35,600 Speaker 6: several large government awards. There's this B twenty one, the FAXX, 1277 01:11:35,640 --> 01:11:42,840 Speaker 6: the Golden Dome Project, and there's no way that you 1278 01:11:42,880 --> 01:11:45,400 Speaker 6: are going to see Northfolk Grumman be anything but the 1279 01:11:45,400 --> 01:11:47,639 Speaker 6: most major player. Now, let me just run real quick 1280 01:11:47,680 --> 01:11:50,799 Speaker 6: to Howmet Aerospace, because so many of you don't know Howmet, 1281 01:11:50,800 --> 01:11:53,759 Speaker 6: which is a two hundred and fifty seven dollars stock. 1282 01:11:54,120 --> 01:11:58,920 Speaker 6: It is lightweight metal products. They do jet engine parts, titemium, 1283 01:11:58,960 --> 01:12:03,160 Speaker 6: structural parts, aeros space fat and accessing systems. They do wheels, 1284 01:12:03,400 --> 01:12:07,120 Speaker 6: they do descend systems, they do machinery, they do program management. 1285 01:12:07,240 --> 01:12:13,040 Speaker 6: But a lot of metals and the new lighter metals. Okay, 1286 01:12:13,200 --> 01:12:16,080 Speaker 6: and they had a great strong quarter. I love Helmett. 1287 01:12:16,160 --> 01:12:19,200 Speaker 6: Let me just go to trans Dime Group please TDG. 1288 01:12:19,800 --> 01:12:23,160 Speaker 6: It's interesting. It's an expensive stock at one thousand, three 1289 01:12:23,240 --> 01:12:26,000 Speaker 6: hundred and twenty six dollars. You got to kind of 1290 01:12:26,040 --> 01:12:31,160 Speaker 6: wonder about that. But this is the company that they've 1291 01:12:31,200 --> 01:12:34,200 Speaker 6: had all these different buyouts and all these roll ups 1292 01:12:34,400 --> 01:12:40,480 Speaker 6: Sei Industries, Raptors Scientific. They have all sorts of defense, 1293 01:12:41,560 --> 01:12:47,600 Speaker 6: defense and military and commercial products, including those for the aftermarket. 1294 01:12:48,040 --> 01:12:51,479 Speaker 6: And let me do L three LHX. I've always loved 1295 01:12:51,760 --> 01:12:53,960 Speaker 6: L three. They differ in deals. There's only one point 1296 01:12:54,000 --> 01:12:57,160 Speaker 6: four percent here, but L three LHX, And if you 1297 01:12:57,200 --> 01:12:59,439 Speaker 6: had to just pick one of any of these stocks, 1298 01:12:59,439 --> 01:13:02,120 Speaker 6: I would do a X. The reason being that the 1299 01:13:02,160 --> 01:13:04,839 Speaker 6: market cap is sixty six billion, so it's a little smaller, 1300 01:13:05,240 --> 01:13:09,320 Speaker 6: and it's the company's The leading defense product is this 1301 01:13:09,400 --> 01:13:14,919 Speaker 6: Airborne Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance ISR and electronic warfare systems. 1302 01:13:14,920 --> 01:13:19,080 Speaker 6: So you want precision guided munitions, propulsion products, communication systems, 1303 01:13:19,120 --> 01:13:23,679 Speaker 6: into great vision solutions, space and missile defense technologies. This 1304 01:13:24,080 --> 01:13:26,320 Speaker 6: is the company to buy, and the growth is going 1305 01:13:26,360 --> 01:13:31,440 Speaker 6: to be double digit annual revenue. The company essentially reinvented 1306 01:13:31,520 --> 01:13:35,400 Speaker 6: solid rocket motor production, creating a much more proficient and 1307 01:13:36,360 --> 01:13:42,479 Speaker 6: efficient model. Okay, so L three LHX, that's what you 1308 01:13:42,720 --> 01:13:45,439 Speaker 6: want to own. If I have time for Axon, just 1309 01:13:45,560 --> 01:13:48,200 Speaker 6: know AXO N. We can get into more details on 1310 01:13:48,240 --> 01:13:51,320 Speaker 6: that at another point in time. But what I love 1311 01:13:51,360 --> 01:13:54,720 Speaker 6: about Exon is this is the military body worn cameras 1312 01:13:54,880 --> 01:13:59,160 Speaker 6: it's drone technology, it's in vehicle camera systems, it's digital 1313 01:13:59,200 --> 01:14:03,680 Speaker 6: management platform forms. Okay, it's all of the cameras that 1314 01:14:03,720 --> 01:14:08,160 Speaker 6: are in the drones. They use AI to take trillions 1315 01:14:08,160 --> 01:14:11,320 Speaker 6: of data points and put them all together and figure 1316 01:14:11,320 --> 01:14:15,439 Speaker 6: out what is happening when they do reconnaissance. Okay, it's 1317 01:14:15,439 --> 01:14:17,519 Speaker 6: going to become a long way from the U two 1318 01:14:17,640 --> 01:14:22,280 Speaker 6: from the Dragon Lady. And so I really love I 1319 01:14:22,439 --> 01:14:26,040 Speaker 6: love Axon, And with a market cap of thirty three billion, 1320 01:14:26,040 --> 01:14:28,639 Speaker 6: it could even be a company that someone comes and 1321 01:14:28,960 --> 01:14:32,400 Speaker 6: swallows it up, because look, it's all about law enforcement 1322 01:14:32,439 --> 01:14:35,880 Speaker 6: and the military having these cameras and being able to 1323 01:14:35,880 --> 01:14:40,080 Speaker 6: have virtual reality training, military body worn cameras, all of that. 1324 01:14:40,160 --> 01:14:41,600 Speaker 6: I don't want to even repeat it again. But and 1325 01:14:41,640 --> 01:14:44,240 Speaker 6: then the drones doesn't matter what you fly up there 1326 01:14:44,280 --> 01:14:46,000 Speaker 6: if you don't have a camera that can see it, 1327 01:14:46,160 --> 01:14:49,839 Speaker 6: understand it, interpreted it. And I did it seven stocks 1328 01:14:49,920 --> 01:14:51,400 Speaker 6: And did I do it in about eight minutes? 1329 01:14:51,520 --> 01:14:52,880 Speaker 2: No, you did it in less than that. I was 1330 01:14:52,960 --> 01:14:56,240 Speaker 2: very impressed. I did have a follow up on L three. 1331 01:14:56,400 --> 01:15:00,599 Speaker 2: You said you anticipate double digit gains from them going forward. 1332 01:15:01,000 --> 01:15:03,040 Speaker 2: What is what what is your what is your hunch 1333 01:15:03,120 --> 01:15:04,160 Speaker 2: in that based. 1334 01:15:03,880 --> 01:15:09,479 Speaker 6: On that's because of their munitions and because of the 1335 01:15:09,520 --> 01:15:13,800 Speaker 6: electronic warfare system. There is such a need for upgrades 1336 01:15:14,040 --> 01:15:17,920 Speaker 6: with these munitions and the propulsion products. And then also 1337 01:15:17,920 --> 01:15:21,040 Speaker 6: they have these integrated vision solutions. But it's their missile 1338 01:15:21,080 --> 01:15:25,479 Speaker 6: defense technologies. These are very expensive. Every every missile costs 1339 01:15:25,560 --> 01:15:28,439 Speaker 6: you know, hundred tens of millions of dollars, you know, 1340 01:15:28,479 --> 01:15:30,559 Speaker 6: depending what kind of missile it is, and then more 1341 01:15:30,600 --> 01:15:34,200 Speaker 6: than anything else. I mean, you're talking about a company LHX. 1342 01:15:34,400 --> 01:15:39,160 Speaker 6: It's leading product, right is airborne intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance 1343 01:15:39,479 --> 01:15:40,240 Speaker 6: and electronics. 1344 01:15:40,520 --> 01:15:43,280 Speaker 2: We're always copulating that. I mean, you know, in peace 1345 01:15:43,360 --> 01:15:45,280 Speaker 2: time and wartime, we want to make sure we know 1346 01:15:45,320 --> 01:15:45,920 Speaker 2: what's going on. 1347 01:15:46,240 --> 01:15:48,760 Speaker 6: That's right, that's right. And anyone who can integrate the 1348 01:15:48,840 --> 01:15:52,839 Speaker 6: actual missiles with the technology and the ability to control 1349 01:15:52,920 --> 01:15:57,080 Speaker 6: them and interpret them from electronicstan standpoint command control, that's 1350 01:15:57,120 --> 01:15:59,680 Speaker 6: what it's all about. And let's hope we don't go 1351 01:15:59,720 --> 01:16:02,559 Speaker 6: to war. Let's hope you were just great companies to 1352 01:16:02,760 --> 01:16:06,160 Speaker 6: keep in your own war chest, in your own portfolio, 1353 01:16:06,479 --> 01:16:09,759 Speaker 6: to make some money in the future, and that you seep. 1354 01:16:11,080 --> 01:16:13,679 Speaker 2: No, I agree, we want I hope that the malas 1355 01:16:13,720 --> 01:16:16,880 Speaker 2: come to their senses and we don't have anything. I 1356 01:16:16,880 --> 01:16:19,599 Speaker 2: know the President wants that too, Hillary, thank you as always, 1357 01:16:19,680 --> 01:16:23,240 Speaker 2: It's Kelvin McCollough.

I'm so glad to 1366 01:17:01,080 --> 01:17:04,960 Speaker 2: be safe and warm back in my studio, the Connors 1367 01:17:05,000 --> 01:17:08,320 Speaker 2: in Sullivan Broadcast Studio. We love, We love the Connors 1368 01:17:08,320 --> 01:17:11,959 Speaker 2: in Sullivan. So thankful that the Connors in Sullivan sponsored 1369 01:17:12,040 --> 01:17:15,120 Speaker 2: the broadcast studio. Yeah, you need you need someone to 1370 01:17:15,160 --> 01:17:17,799 Speaker 2: help you plan your end of life stuff. Mike Connors 1371 01:17:17,880 --> 01:17:20,080 Speaker 2: is the man. Like he did all of my stuff. 1372 01:17:20,240 --> 01:17:23,000 Speaker 2: My friend Joe Piscopo, who hosts the morning show for 1373 01:17:23,120 --> 01:17:26,360 Speaker 2: my New York affiliates, he did all of his stuff. 1374 01:17:26,600 --> 01:17:28,240 Speaker 2: He's the man when it comes to the end of 1375 01:17:28,240 --> 01:17:31,200 Speaker 2: life stuff. Mike Connors is the man. Seven eight two 1376 01:17:31,200 --> 01:17:33,719 Speaker 2: three eight sixty five hundred from anywhere in the country. 1377 01:17:33,840 --> 01:17:35,519 Speaker 2: He can help you seven one eight two three eight 1378 01:17:35,600 --> 01:17:38,760 Speaker 2: sixty five hundred Connors and Sullivan anyway. But I'm glad 1379 01:17:38,800 --> 01:17:40,639 Speaker 2: to be back, but I was a little bit miffed 1380 01:17:40,680 --> 01:17:43,040 Speaker 2: that I was more out of the loop last week. 1381 01:17:43,120 --> 01:17:46,439 Speaker 2: News wise, you saw that there was another shooting last 1382 01:17:46,439 --> 01:17:50,439 Speaker 2: week that was done by a transgender man. And this 1383 01:17:50,600 --> 01:17:54,280 Speaker 2: makes what the three hundred and forty eight thousandth shooting 1384 01:17:54,360 --> 01:17:57,639 Speaker 2: by a transgendered person in the last number of years. 1385 01:17:58,000 --> 01:18:00,519 Speaker 2: I'm being a bit facetious with the no, but it 1386 01:18:00,600 --> 01:18:03,840 Speaker 2: is overwhelming the number of transgendered people that have been 1387 01:18:03,840 --> 01:18:09,200 Speaker 2: involved in these shootings. Anyway, there's a going back to Minnesota, eh. 1388 01:18:09,240 --> 01:18:11,360 Speaker 2: Pray for friends up there. Man, they got their work 1389 01:18:11,400 --> 01:18:14,640 Speaker 2: cut out for him. The Minnesota state legislature is in 1390 01:18:14,720 --> 01:18:18,320 Speaker 2: session right now and it's considering a bill to age 1391 01:18:18,560 --> 01:18:24,080 Speaker 2: restrict access to pornography. So I didn't know this, but 1392 01:18:24,160 --> 01:18:26,920 Speaker 2: evidently in Minnesota you don't have to be a certain 1393 01:18:26,920 --> 01:18:32,240 Speaker 2: age to purchase pornography, so they're considering a bill to 1394 01:18:32,400 --> 01:18:35,680 Speaker 2: age restrict it. I would think that would be a 1395 01:18:36,040 --> 01:18:38,439 Speaker 2: good first step to getting rid of it. Altogether, but 1396 01:18:39,920 --> 01:18:45,920 Speaker 2: all right, age restricted. However, State Rep. Lee Finkey, a 1397 01:18:45,920 --> 01:18:50,959 Speaker 2: transgender Democrat, because there are no Republicans. A transgender Democrat, 1398 01:18:51,080 --> 01:18:55,280 Speaker 2: argued in committee that restricting access to pornography would quote 1399 01:18:55,680 --> 01:19:00,400 Speaker 2: limit kid's ability to get educated about gender issues. Listen 1400 01:19:00,439 --> 01:19:02,759 Speaker 2: to this. This is the actual These are the words 1401 01:19:02,800 --> 01:19:07,360 Speaker 2: that came out of its mouth. Lee Finky. You mentioned 1402 01:19:07,439 --> 01:19:12,240 Speaker 2: the Paxton case, and the AGS in many states are 1403 01:19:12,360 --> 01:19:15,639 Speaker 2: very clear about that. They're almost jubilant about being able 1404 01:19:15,680 --> 01:19:18,360 Speaker 2: to use these laws to ban young people from accessing 1405 01:19:18,439 --> 01:19:21,920 Speaker 2: content that could be educational if they are queer, and 1406 01:19:22,040 --> 01:19:25,360 Speaker 2: you are a principal, you have LGBT students in your school, 1407 01:19:25,400 --> 01:19:30,000 Speaker 2: and we also know that they're not receiving sets education 1408 01:19:30,120 --> 01:19:33,599 Speaker 2: for queer kids. We know that the purient interest could 1409 01:19:33,640 --> 01:19:36,479 Speaker 2: be for many people, the very existence of transgender kids. 1410 01:19:36,479 --> 01:19:39,280 Speaker 2: More and more people are saying there simply are no 1411 01:19:39,400 --> 01:19:43,120 Speaker 2: transgender kids. There are no transgender kids. I will say it. 1412 01:19:44,000 --> 01:19:51,439 Speaker 2: Transgenderism is a mental malady that needs help and correction, 1413 01:19:53,080 --> 01:19:57,360 Speaker 2: and many times in recent decades has been thrust upon 1414 01:19:57,479 --> 01:20:01,320 Speaker 2: kids that are struggling with other underlying mental issues that 1415 01:20:01,400 --> 01:20:06,280 Speaker 2: have gone unaddressed. And the reason I know that state Rep. 1416 01:20:06,520 --> 01:20:13,400 Speaker 2: Lee Finkey is because the D transitioners, which are now 1417 01:20:13,520 --> 01:20:17,160 Speaker 2: in the thousands, are telling us that that's how it 1418 01:20:17,200 --> 01:20:22,920 Speaker 2: happened themselves after they come to the realization that they 1419 01:20:22,960 --> 01:20:28,479 Speaker 2: don't really want to be transgendered. They don't want to 1420 01:20:28,640 --> 01:20:33,920 Speaker 2: transgender at all. They want to D transition and be 1421 01:20:34,439 --> 01:20:41,360 Speaker 2: as God made them. Because what God made, he made 1422 01:20:41,400 --> 01:20:45,360 Speaker 2: for good, for the good of his purposes, for the 1423 01:20:45,360 --> 01:20:49,880 Speaker 2: good of the individual's purposes. And the fact that you 1424 01:20:50,040 --> 01:20:57,200 Speaker 2: want to put pornography which would put surgical Frankenstein's in 1425 01:20:57,240 --> 01:21:01,120 Speaker 2: front of these kids visually, just so that they can 1426 01:21:01,200 --> 01:21:06,559 Speaker 2: have their senses shocked by your perversion doesn't make it 1427 01:21:06,600 --> 01:21:12,160 Speaker 2: anymore right. God made man and woman, He made male 1428 01:21:12,320 --> 01:21:16,320 Speaker 2: and female. He created them, and he called them good, 1429 01:21:17,520 --> 01:21:21,880 Speaker 2: and good they are. I'm Cavin McCullough. We'll see you 1430 01:21:21,880 --> 01:21:22,280 Speaker 2: next time.
