1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,480 S1: Hi friends. Thanks so much for downloading this podcast, and 2 00:00:02,480 --> 00:00:06,000 S1: I hope truly that you will hear something that will encourage, edify, equip, 3 00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:08,360 S1: and enlighten you to get out there and influence and 4 00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:11,040 S1: occupy until he comes. And on that note, may I 5 00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:13,080 S1: take just a few moments here to describe this month's 6 00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:15,920 S1: truth tool? It's by pastor Jack Hibbs. He's written the 7 00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:19,040 S1: book called Called to Take a Bold Stand. I absolutely 8 00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:21,520 S1: love this book because it reminds us that in Christ 9 00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:24,480 S1: all things pass away. All things become new, that we 10 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:27,240 S1: are standing for his truth, that we have a new nature. 11 00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:30,080 S1: Because of him, we should be living boldly. But far 12 00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:33,120 S1: too often we retreat out of fear from cultural blowback. 13 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:35,600 S1: So I want to encourage all of us to just 14 00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:37,800 S1: stand up for Christ, to be unashamed of who we 15 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:40,120 S1: are in him, and to go into a culture that's 16 00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:43,600 S1: telling us in no uncertain terms. They're lost and they're hurting. 17 00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:45,760 S1: So if you'd like a copy of Pastor Hibbs new 18 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:48,400 S1: book called Call to Take a Bold Stand, just give 19 00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:50,720 S1: a gift of any amount by calling eight, seven, seven. 20 00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:53,680 S1: Janet 58.

The president won a pledge. 42 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,080 S4: For Americans worshipping government over God. 43 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,800 S3: Extremely rare safety move by a major 17 years. 44 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,360 S4: The Palestinians and Israelis negotiated to. 45 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:13,919 S1: Hi friends. Welcome to In the Market with Janet Partial. 46 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,200 S1: A very happy Friday to you. Thank you so much 47 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:18,760 S1: for joining us, Mr. Craig. Partial is with me as 48 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,040 S1: he is on Fridays. Take out your glasses because we're 49 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:22,680 S1: going to look at the world around us through the 50 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,880 S1: lens of Scripture. That's what makes Fridays different around here. 51 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:28,440 S1: Craig and I go round robin on a very wide 52 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,200 S1: variety of topics, by the way. We do it for 53 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,519 S1: both of our hours. I say that to you because 54 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:34,680 S1: if you like one hour, but you didn't realize we 55 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:36,720 S1: did two or can only catch one. Don't forget that 56 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,400 S1: all of this stuff goes on our podcast. So you 57 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,839 S1: can just go wherever you find your favorite podcast and 58 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,840 S1: download in the market with Janet partial put in today's date. 59 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:46,720 S1: And that way you can never miss one of the 60 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:48,399 S1: two hours we do on Friday, because we do this 61 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,079 S1: kind of approach to what's happening in the marketplace of 62 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:54,120 S1: ideas for both of the hours. So roll up your sleeves, 63 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:56,200 S1: put on your thinking cap. Remember when you came to 64 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,000 S1: faith in Christ, your heart was transformed, your mind was renewed. 65 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,840 S1: And you and I, now, as followers of Jesus Christ, 66 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,959 S1: look at the world differently. We see the world in Technicolor. 67 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:06,680 S1: Remember that part of the Wizard of Oz where it 68 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:09,280 S1: goes from black and white into color? That's what happens 69 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,480 S1: to us as believers. My heart breaks for those who 70 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,120 S1: don't yet know Christ as their Savior, because they are 71 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,680 S1: not seeing the depth of color and what's going on, 72 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:20,520 S1: and the order and form and substance and purpose of 73 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:22,320 S1: the world around us. The Bible says that God is 74 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:25,200 S1: not the author of confusion. And so when you look 75 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:26,720 S1: at the world around you, you see things that are 76 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,000 S1: going crazy and the world's wringing their hands together going, 77 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,240 S1: what's going on? What's going on? And I sit back, 78 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,520 S1: as should you. And we go, well, they're right on track. 79 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:38,080 S1: The world is doing exactly what the world would be 80 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:42,200 S1: doing without Jesus Christ. The distinctive is we're just traveling through. 81 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,200 S1: We're in, but not of the world. But that world 82 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,680 S1: is the world we are called to engage with. So 83 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:49,720 S1: when they're calling good, evil, evil, good, and they're doing 84 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,800 S1: what's right in their own eyes, well, that's exactly the 85 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:54,560 S1: mess that the Lord told us to go out into. 86 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,280 S1: Is it going to be easy? Absolutely not. We're going 87 00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,800 S1: to be called blessed if we're reviled for the sake 88 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:03,120 S1: of Christ. And Jesus lovingly reminds us, hey, if they 89 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,880 S1: hated you, remember they hated me first. So pull up 90 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:07,960 S1: your sleeves and let's grow up and get up and 91 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,880 S1: get out there and influence and occupy until he comes. 92 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:12,320 S1: All right. We're going to start with the first story. 93 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:16,080 S1: The US government has described AI startup anthropic as an 94 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:20,479 S1: unacceptable national security risk. In a court filing, citing concerns 95 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,680 S1: about the company's reliability as a wartime partner. So The 96 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,800 S1: New York Times is reporting that in a 40 page 97 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,320 S1: legal filing submitted to the US District Court for the 98 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,440 S1: Northern District of California on Tuesday of this week, government 99 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:36,520 S1: attorneys outlined their reasoning for slashing anthropic qualifications as a 100 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:40,080 S1: trusted partner for national defense purposes. The filing represents the 101 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:44,960 S1: government's first formal response to lawsuits initiated by the San 102 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:50,120 S1: Francisco based AI company, which produces the cloud chatbot system 103 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:53,719 S1: formerly used by the Pentagon. Uh oh. An AI system, 104 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,560 S1: National security at Pentagon. Which of these things is not 105 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:58,920 S1: like the other? So, according to the filing, the core 106 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,960 S1: of the government's concern centers on the possibility that anthropic 107 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:06,599 S1: could disable or modify technology, the rise of the machine 108 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:11,719 S1: to align with corporate interests rather no, rather than national 109 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:15,680 S1: proprieties during wartime scenarios. So government lawyers emphasize the particular 110 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:20,920 S1: vulnerability of AI systems to manipulation, arguing that granting anthropic 111 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:25,480 S1: access to the Department of War's infrastructure would introduce unacceptable 112 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,560 S1: risks into supply chains. I love this story because it's 113 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,440 S1: like something right out of a John Grisham novel. So 114 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:31,800 S1: talk to me about this. First of all, who is 115 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,279 S1: this anthropic? Sounds like a clothing store. 116 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:38,160 S5: Yeah, it's one of a handful of the giant corporations, 117 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:44,239 S5: technology corporations that have developed AI systems. By the way, 118 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:50,360 S5: the two big ones are anthropic and ChatGPT. When the 119 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:56,030 S5: Trump administration said through the War Department, the Defense Department, um, 120 00:05:56,230 --> 00:06:01,469 S5: at first they were negotiating with anthropic to use their, um, 121 00:06:01,750 --> 00:06:07,230 S5: AI analysis systems within the Department of Defense, the War 122 00:06:07,230 --> 00:06:11,430 S5: Department for military purposes. Now, in other words, anthropic would 123 00:06:11,430 --> 00:06:16,350 S5: be a defense contractor. The other big one, ChatGPT was 124 00:06:16,350 --> 00:06:19,710 S5: not chosen at that time. Then they got into a dispute. Now, 125 00:06:19,710 --> 00:06:21,310 S5: I'm not going to go into the nitty gritty of 126 00:06:21,310 --> 00:06:28,190 S5: the contract dispute, but um, there was a phrase in 127 00:06:28,470 --> 00:06:33,510 S5: the contract that anthropic had a problem with and that is, um, 128 00:06:33,710 --> 00:06:40,670 S5: they did not want the American military establishment to be 129 00:06:40,710 --> 00:06:45,870 S5: able to use its technology, anthropic AI technology, um, for 130 00:06:45,870 --> 00:06:52,550 S5: autonomous use. Autonomous is an interesting term. Does it mean, 131 00:06:52,550 --> 00:06:56,790 S5: for instance, like a robot who will make a decision 132 00:06:56,790 --> 00:07:01,750 S5: whether or not to shoot someone in wartime or a 133 00:07:01,910 --> 00:07:08,230 S5: AI operated drone that's armed with missiles, making autonomous decisions 134 00:07:08,870 --> 00:07:12,950 S5: without human input on when a missile should be fired. 135 00:07:13,150 --> 00:07:16,270 S5: Is that the meaning of autonomous? I can understand the concern, 136 00:07:16,270 --> 00:07:19,030 S5: but it could also mean that in the middle of 137 00:07:19,030 --> 00:07:25,270 S5: a war, a battle. If, um, anthropic didn't like the 138 00:07:25,270 --> 00:07:30,350 S5: conduct of the American military according to their particular political 139 00:07:30,350 --> 00:07:34,150 S5: and geopolitical views. They could say, oh, no, you're using 140 00:07:34,150 --> 00:07:37,830 S5: it autonomously and right in the middle of a battle. 141 00:07:38,030 --> 00:07:42,190 S5: They could pull their ability for the the American military 142 00:07:42,190 --> 00:07:45,470 S5: to use their their services right in the middle of 143 00:07:45,470 --> 00:07:50,790 S5: a battleground scenario. Obviously, you don't want that. Now, there 144 00:07:50,790 --> 00:07:54,510 S5: are other problems with anthropic. I've read their so-called AI 145 00:07:54,630 --> 00:08:00,270 S5: constitution and their AI constitution. This is. Anthropic said that 146 00:08:00,270 --> 00:08:04,230 S5: they have the right under their constitution to teach their 147 00:08:04,270 --> 00:08:09,550 S5: AI systems, to basically teach people who have the wrong 148 00:08:09,590 --> 00:08:14,670 S5: ideological ideas, what the truth is about those ideological ideas. 149 00:08:14,990 --> 00:08:19,350 S5: I got a problem with that. That's manipulation on a 150 00:08:19,350 --> 00:08:23,630 S5: grand scale of human opinion. So there's all kinds of 151 00:08:23,630 --> 00:08:28,030 S5: problems with the anthropic company. So then what happened is 152 00:08:28,350 --> 00:08:32,950 S5: after they got into this negotiation battle and the United 153 00:08:32,950 --> 00:08:37,670 S5: States military pulled out, they went to the other competitor. Um, 154 00:08:37,910 --> 00:08:42,350 S5: and that is ChatGPT. Um, and so it'll tell you 155 00:08:42,350 --> 00:08:45,310 S5: how limited the Giants are. By the way, who's funding 156 00:08:45,309 --> 00:08:50,150 S5: these two giants? The five big tech companies I've often 157 00:08:50,150 --> 00:08:56,710 S5: talked about here, which is Amazon, Apple, Microsoft, uh, which 158 00:08:56,710 --> 00:09:00,949 S5: is Facebook and Google, the same five Titans. I talk 159 00:09:00,990 --> 00:09:06,070 S5: about a nauseam on Fridays about being monopolies are also 160 00:09:06,070 --> 00:09:10,550 S5: really behind the scenes funding and in some ways controlling 161 00:09:10,670 --> 00:09:12,670 S5: these two AI companies. 162 00:09:12,990 --> 00:09:14,990 S1: Wow. All right. So let me take a break. That's 163 00:09:14,990 --> 00:09:16,790 S1: topic number one. We're going to take a break and 164 00:09:16,790 --> 00:09:19,950 S1: come right back. There's so many AI questions out there. Again, 165 00:09:20,390 --> 00:09:22,630 S1: I just read a story, by the way, that now 166 00:09:22,830 --> 00:09:25,550 S1: we have robots that can do your dental work, that 167 00:09:25,550 --> 00:09:29,030 S1: they did a crown replacement in about an hour and 168 00:09:29,030 --> 00:09:31,030 S1: a half, compared to two hours for a doctor. And 169 00:09:31,030 --> 00:09:35,910 S1: by the year 2035, your your dentist will be a robot. 170 00:09:35,950 --> 00:09:38,150 S1: Not good news for all the dentists listening. We'll take 171 00:09:38,150 --> 00:09:49,310 S1: a break and be right back. The Bible calls us 172 00:09:49,309 --> 00:09:51,429 S1: to be bold and courageous for the cause of the cross. 173 00:09:51,429 --> 00:09:54,390 S1: But too often we retreat because of fear of cultural blowback. 174 00:09:54,550 --> 00:09:56,710 S1: That's why I've chosen call to take a bold stand 175 00:09:56,710 --> 00:09:59,270 S1: as this month's truth tool discover how to overcome the 176 00:09:59,270 --> 00:10:02,390 S1: fear of intimidation or persecution. As for your copy of 177 00:10:02,429 --> 00:10:04,069 S1: call to take a bold stand when you give a 178 00:10:04,110 --> 00:10:06,870 S1: gift of any amount to in the market, call 877. 179 00:10:06,870 --> 00:10:10,670 S1: Janet 58. That's 877. Janet 58. Or go to in 180 00:10:10,670 --> 00:10:14,230 S1: the market with Janet Parshall. Oh, by the way, that's 181 00:10:14,230 --> 00:10:16,790 S1: a great book by pastor Jack Hibbs called to Take 182 00:10:16,790 --> 00:10:20,230 S1: a Bold Stand. He reminds us, if I can paraphrase 183 00:10:20,230 --> 00:10:22,670 S1: from Scripture that we live in a wicked and perverse generation, 184 00:10:22,670 --> 00:10:24,590 S1: but you and I are called to be lights to 185 00:10:24,630 --> 00:10:27,590 S1: the world. Scripture says during this time. So we want 186 00:10:27,630 --> 00:10:29,510 S1: to be bold for our faith, and we want to 187 00:10:29,510 --> 00:10:31,870 S1: take every minute the Lord grants us to make sure 188 00:10:31,870 --> 00:10:34,670 S1: that we are letting our light so shine before men. 189 00:10:34,910 --> 00:10:37,150 S1: And this book encourages you to do just that.

This is an 202 00:11:04,950 --> 00:11:09,670 S1: interesting story. And even though it refers to the previous administration, 203 00:11:09,950 --> 00:11:11,870 S1: I'm going to bring in my friend Nehemiah here. So 204 00:11:11,870 --> 00:11:14,350 S1: Nehemiah is repairing those broken walls around Jerusalem. And I 205 00:11:14,350 --> 00:11:16,350 S1: love what he says. He understands that his task is 206 00:11:16,350 --> 00:11:18,070 S1: to repair the walls, but it's more important that he 207 00:11:18,070 --> 00:11:20,870 S1: protect the people living inside the walls. So he makes 208 00:11:20,870 --> 00:11:22,830 S1: the declaration that when you hear the sound of the 209 00:11:22,830 --> 00:11:27,670 S1: trumpet fight for your families, it's such an excellent watchword 210 00:11:27,670 --> 00:11:29,589 S1: for us today, as we look well to the ways 211 00:11:29,590 --> 00:11:31,270 S1: of our household. Who would have thought that the local 212 00:11:31,270 --> 00:11:33,870 S1: public classroom would become a battle zone for the hearts 213 00:11:33,870 --> 00:11:35,630 S1: and minds of our children? But in far too many 214 00:11:35,630 --> 00:11:38,030 S1: cases and in far too many ways, that is exactly 215 00:11:38,030 --> 00:11:40,469 S1: what's happening. And I think it's important that you understand 216 00:11:40,670 --> 00:11:44,109 S1: it's not happening by accident. There is a pointed agenda. 217 00:11:44,110 --> 00:11:46,470 S1: It's coming from the pit of hell, but there are 218 00:11:46,470 --> 00:11:49,350 S1: various actors that work it out on a mortal. On 219 00:11:49,350 --> 00:11:52,230 S1: a mortal plane and in this dimension. And so I 220 00:11:52,230 --> 00:11:54,350 S1: want you to understand what. Some of those movements are 221 00:11:54,350 --> 00:11:56,190 S1: so that we have a quickening in our heart to. 222 00:11:56,230 --> 00:11:58,430 S1: Be cognizant of the fact that you have to protect 223 00:11:58,429 --> 00:12:00,750 S1: your children. Okay? You are. Don't ever forget this. You 224 00:12:00,750 --> 00:12:04,030 S1: are the best Department of Health, education and welfare. So 225 00:12:04,030 --> 00:12:06,309 S1: there's a newly released set of emails that show that 226 00:12:06,309 --> 00:12:10,190 S1: the previous administration's Department of Education in 2022 attempted to 227 00:12:10,230 --> 00:12:15,350 S1: form a secret parent advisory council. The word secret out 228 00:12:15,350 --> 00:12:17,550 S1: of the gate should get your attention. And they were 229 00:12:17,550 --> 00:12:21,390 S1: supposed to be helping the teachers unions, far leftists, organizations 230 00:12:21,390 --> 00:12:24,150 S1: that have nothing to do with protecting children. And they're 231 00:12:24,150 --> 00:12:26,270 S1: more like a group of labor workers, by the way. 232 00:12:26,270 --> 00:12:29,390 S1: And it's all about advancing a particular ideology and particular 233 00:12:29,390 --> 00:12:33,429 S1: political candidates. So this group was not only supposed to 234 00:12:33,470 --> 00:12:36,270 S1: give teachers unions, but they're also supposed to help left 235 00:12:36,309 --> 00:12:42,110 S1: leaning activists and parents groups, uh, about advancing federal education policy. 236 00:12:42,110 --> 00:12:44,150 S1: And you will remember in the previous administration, there were 237 00:12:44,150 --> 00:12:47,990 S1: some pretty bad education policy that was really anathema to 238 00:12:48,030 --> 00:12:50,590 S1: what so many of us as Christians adhere to. So 239 00:12:50,630 --> 00:12:54,150 S1: under this administration, the department created the National Parents and 240 00:12:54,150 --> 00:12:57,790 S1: Families Engagement Council, kind of an innocuous title, right? But 241 00:12:57,830 --> 00:13:01,870 S1: ostensibly it was a partnership, they said, between parents and families, educators, 242 00:13:01,870 --> 00:13:05,550 S1: district leaders and entire school communities to support student success. 243 00:13:05,550 --> 00:13:08,750 S1: Banal language sounds pretty safe, but behind the scenes, this 244 00:13:08,750 --> 00:13:12,670 S1: short lived council was made up of hand-picked activist organizations 245 00:13:12,670 --> 00:13:17,630 S1: that focused on radical racial, gender and immigrant focused ideologies. 246 00:13:17,710 --> 00:13:22,110 S1: There wasn't a single right of center or conservative parents 247 00:13:22,110 --> 00:13:24,670 S1: group that was invited to participate. So you've seen the 248 00:13:24,670 --> 00:13:27,790 S1: red flags on this. So the emails were obtained from 249 00:13:27,790 --> 00:13:32,790 S1: defending education, and they detail how the Department of Education 250 00:13:32,790 --> 00:13:37,390 S1: targeted particular ideologically aligned groups and invited them to participate 251 00:13:37,550 --> 00:13:41,670 S1: in the council and guide its mission. So a document 252 00:13:41,670 --> 00:13:46,190 S1: from defending editor said this. The National Parents and Families 253 00:13:46,190 --> 00:13:49,510 S1: Engagement Council. The council, as it was referred to, is 254 00:13:49,510 --> 00:13:52,790 S1: an opportunity to listen, learn and engage parents. The council 255 00:13:52,790 --> 00:13:55,270 S1: seeks to ensure parents voices play a critical role in 256 00:13:55,270 --> 00:13:59,390 S1: how their children are recovering from the pandemic academically, socially 257 00:13:59,390 --> 00:14:01,990 S1: and emotionally. You didn't need a special group to do 258 00:14:01,990 --> 00:14:04,510 S1: that academically. We couldn't do math and we couldn't read 259 00:14:04,510 --> 00:14:07,990 S1: post the pandemic. Our children are now well over a year, 260 00:14:07,990 --> 00:14:10,830 S1: an academic year, if not a year and a half behind, 261 00:14:10,870 --> 00:14:14,550 S1: according to all kinds of think tanks and objective social 262 00:14:14,550 --> 00:14:16,510 S1: science out there. That shows that our kids paid a 263 00:14:16,510 --> 00:14:19,030 S1: huge price for being held back from going to school. 264 00:14:19,030 --> 00:14:20,870 S1: Who was behind keeping your kids out of school? The 265 00:14:20,870 --> 00:14:24,310 S1: government in a linkage with the teachers union, our kids 266 00:14:24,310 --> 00:14:27,430 S1: paid the price. Organization leaders were asked to provide feedback 267 00:14:27,430 --> 00:14:30,110 S1: on the department's outline and appoint a parent rep to 268 00:14:30,150 --> 00:14:33,590 S1: participate in the council. Remember, not a single centrist or 269 00:14:33,630 --> 00:14:37,470 S1: right leaning parents group or representative was put on this council. 270 00:14:37,750 --> 00:14:39,950 S1: So despite the promise to give parents a voice, many 271 00:14:39,950 --> 00:14:43,270 S1: of the invited groups were large special interest groups like 272 00:14:43,310 --> 00:14:46,390 S1: the American Federation of Teachers, which is the second largest 273 00:14:46,390 --> 00:14:49,590 S1: teachers union, the National Action Network, the National Association for 274 00:14:49,590 --> 00:14:52,470 S1: the Advancement of Colored People, PFLAG, which has a gay 275 00:14:52,470 --> 00:14:56,070 S1: rights group and a Latino advocacy group, and their response 276 00:14:56,070 --> 00:14:58,830 S1: to the invitation. Many organizations urged the department to make 277 00:14:58,830 --> 00:15:02,710 S1: the program more inclusive and suggest. To ensure the council 278 00:15:02,990 --> 00:15:07,590 S1: will consist of geographically and demographically diverse parent representatives. Except 279 00:15:07,590 --> 00:15:10,750 S1: the problem was, Craig, there was no diversity. It was 280 00:15:10,750 --> 00:15:14,070 S1: all left leaning. But this goes back to a real 281 00:15:14,070 --> 00:15:16,910 S1: problem in the previous administration, where they were working hand 282 00:15:16,950 --> 00:15:19,990 S1: in glove with not only the teachers union, but remember 283 00:15:19,990 --> 00:15:23,350 S1: the association of school boards. And they talked about parents 284 00:15:23,350 --> 00:15:25,670 S1: coming to the school board meetings, and they were the 285 00:15:25,670 --> 00:15:29,270 S1: domestic terrorists. All of this garbage was emanating from the 286 00:15:29,310 --> 00:15:32,830 S1: same percolating cauldrons here in Washington, where the parents, particularly 287 00:15:32,830 --> 00:15:36,070 S1: conservative religious parents, were the bad, terrible guys. And then 288 00:15:36,070 --> 00:15:38,870 S1: all the left leaning groups, leaning groups were saying, we 289 00:15:38,870 --> 00:15:40,710 S1: have to get in there. We have to indoctrinate as 290 00:15:40,710 --> 00:15:42,790 S1: quickly and as fast as we could and before our 291 00:15:42,790 --> 00:15:46,310 S1: very eyes. Abracadabra! We watched people go from educators to 292 00:15:46,350 --> 00:15:50,710 S1: propagandists instead. They weren't educating. They were indoctrinating your thoughts. 293 00:15:51,350 --> 00:15:55,830 S5: Um, they wanted to create a council that would help 294 00:15:55,830 --> 00:16:00,910 S5: them to eat their cake and have it too. And 295 00:16:00,910 --> 00:16:06,150 S5: so number one, by calling it a parents council, they 296 00:16:06,710 --> 00:16:09,670 S5: let's talk about politics for a minute, because the way 297 00:16:09,670 --> 00:16:13,910 S5: that Washington works, no matter who's in office, uh, or 298 00:16:13,990 --> 00:16:18,630 S5: what party is in control, um, words count and are 299 00:16:18,630 --> 00:16:21,910 S5: used to create a public impression. The word parent has 300 00:16:21,950 --> 00:16:24,830 S5: become very important of late, as you and I have noticed, 301 00:16:24,830 --> 00:16:26,870 S5: and a lot of your listeners, in fact, a lot 302 00:16:26,870 --> 00:16:30,110 S5: of political races have been won or lost on the 303 00:16:30,110 --> 00:16:34,270 S5: issue of parents rights over the last few years. For many, many, 304 00:16:34,270 --> 00:16:39,670 S5: many years, you and I were advocates for a Uh, 305 00:16:39,790 --> 00:16:44,430 S5: redefinition of parents rights, that would be a viable recognition 306 00:16:44,430 --> 00:16:48,310 S5: that parents really ought to be the primary nurturers, both 307 00:16:48,310 --> 00:16:52,670 S5: morally and educationally for children, and that public schools should 308 00:16:52,670 --> 00:16:56,510 S5: remember that. But recently, the last couple of years, that's 309 00:16:56,510 --> 00:16:59,910 S5: really become a fact. So they wanted to, I think, 310 00:16:59,950 --> 00:17:03,310 S5: capitalize on the word parent. Hey, that sounds good. But 311 00:17:03,310 --> 00:17:07,670 S5: at the same time, the documents say that they specifically said, oh, 312 00:17:07,710 --> 00:17:10,510 S5: but it's not a federal advisory council. Why would they 313 00:17:10,510 --> 00:17:13,669 S5: say that? So that you couldn't use FOIA, freedom of 314 00:17:13,670 --> 00:17:16,710 S5: information to find out what was being discussed. And they 315 00:17:16,710 --> 00:17:19,670 S5: could bring in any group they wanted to and we 316 00:17:19,670 --> 00:17:20,310 S5: wouldn't know about it. 317 00:17:20,350 --> 00:17:22,030 S1: So it goes right back full circle to the use 318 00:17:22,030 --> 00:17:24,470 S1: of the word secret. So this was behind closed doors. 319 00:17:24,470 --> 00:17:27,350 S1: You can't get information. We're going to infiltrate the schools 320 00:17:27,350 --> 00:17:31,429 S1: out there. So, you know, my mom said just because 321 00:17:31,430 --> 00:17:33,510 S1: you think you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to 322 00:17:33,510 --> 00:17:35,669 S1: get you. Okay, so just be thinking about that. 323 00:17:35,710 --> 00:17:37,590 S5: By the way, I knew her well, she wasn't paranoid. 324 00:17:37,630 --> 00:17:38,150 S5: Not at all. 325 00:17:38,460 --> 00:17:56,660 S1: We'll be back after this. Earlier this month, Craig and 326 00:17:56,660 --> 00:17:58,379 S1: I talked about a case that came down from the 327 00:17:58,380 --> 00:18:02,100 S1: United States Supreme Court in A63 ruling that basically said, hey, 328 00:18:02,140 --> 00:18:06,500 S1: state of California, you violated the first and 14th amendments 329 00:18:06,500 --> 00:18:10,180 S1: in your decision. That said, somehow in the state of California, 330 00:18:10,460 --> 00:18:13,100 S1: if Tommy leaves home as Tommy and comes to school 331 00:18:13,100 --> 00:18:15,699 S1: as Susie and thinks he's in the wrong body, the 332 00:18:15,700 --> 00:18:19,700 S1: schools have the right to tell Susie slash Tommy. She 333 00:18:19,700 --> 00:18:21,580 S1: doesn't have to tell her parents. He doesn't have to 334 00:18:21,580 --> 00:18:23,939 S1: tell his parents. And we're going to create this wedge 335 00:18:23,940 --> 00:18:27,340 S1: in this hedge of secrecy between the parents and the child. 336 00:18:27,340 --> 00:18:32,300 S1: And the court said, no, no, sorry, unconstitutional six three decision. Well, 337 00:18:32,300 --> 00:18:35,940 S1: that didn't settle well with California. So California went back 338 00:18:35,940 --> 00:18:38,260 S1: to the Ninth Circuit, which is the federal circuit in 339 00:18:38,260 --> 00:18:39,899 S1: their neck of the woods. And they said, we want 340 00:18:39,900 --> 00:18:43,020 S1: you to put an emergency request in there to modify 341 00:18:43,020 --> 00:18:45,900 S1: the Supreme Court decision. No, you lost it. You don't 342 00:18:45,900 --> 00:18:48,060 S1: get the Super Bowl ring. Okay? You did not win 343 00:18:48,060 --> 00:18:50,419 S1: this one. So the US Court of Appeals for the 344 00:18:50,420 --> 00:18:55,379 S1: Ninth Circuit has denied California's emergency request to modify this U.S. 345 00:18:55,380 --> 00:18:58,460 S1: Supreme Court decision, involving a policy that allowed public schools 346 00:18:58,460 --> 00:19:02,460 S1: to withhold information from parents about a student's gender transition. 347 00:19:02,500 --> 00:19:06,220 S1: I mean, that's unconscionable. And every vantage point. So California 348 00:19:06,260 --> 00:19:09,340 S1: then turned around, being California files an emergency motion seeking 349 00:19:09,340 --> 00:19:12,540 S1: to revise the language of this permanent injunction against the 350 00:19:12,540 --> 00:19:15,419 S1: policy because they said, well, we need to address situations 351 00:19:15,420 --> 00:19:18,859 S1: involving parents who might engage in abuse. It's always the abuse. 352 00:19:18,859 --> 00:19:21,060 S1: Let's start with the idea that all parents are abusers, 353 00:19:21,060 --> 00:19:23,900 S1: and therefore we're going to make sure that every parent 354 00:19:23,900 --> 00:19:26,420 S1: out there suffers as a result of this. Well, that's 355 00:19:26,420 --> 00:19:29,220 S1: six three decision stands. And what happened is the ninth 356 00:19:29,220 --> 00:19:31,940 S1: Circuit came along and said, uh, no, we're not going 357 00:19:31,980 --> 00:19:33,940 S1: to vacate this. We're not going to modify for you. 358 00:19:33,940 --> 00:19:36,940 S1: In fact, what they said was parents and guardians have 359 00:19:36,940 --> 00:19:39,619 S1: a federal constitutional right to be informed if their public 360 00:19:39,619 --> 00:19:43,820 S1: school student child expresses gender incongruence. Teachers and school staff 361 00:19:43,820 --> 00:19:47,780 S1: have a federal constitutional right to accurately inform the parent 362 00:19:47,780 --> 00:19:50,500 S1: or guardian of their student of their student when the 363 00:19:50,500 --> 00:19:56,020 S1: student expresses gender incongruence. These federal constitutional rights are superior. 364 00:19:56,460 --> 00:19:58,659 S1: I love that language in the law are superior to 365 00:19:58,700 --> 00:20:02,020 S1: any state or local laws, state or local regulations, or 366 00:20:02,020 --> 00:20:06,220 S1: state or local policies to the contrary. So basically, they 367 00:20:06,220 --> 00:20:09,460 S1: came along and said, we don't care. Whatever interest you 368 00:20:09,460 --> 00:20:12,580 S1: think is the reason for creating secrecy policies. In the 369 00:20:12,580 --> 00:20:14,820 S1: words of Janet Partial, not the Supreme Court. That dog 370 00:20:14,859 --> 00:20:17,020 S1: don't hunt me. Ttyl talk. Talk to me about this. 371 00:20:17,060 --> 00:20:21,500 S5: Yeah. This gets into, uh, lawyer play. Okay. Um. 372 00:20:22,100 --> 00:20:23,420 S1: Dangerous sports, by the way. 373 00:20:23,580 --> 00:20:28,540 S5: It is, uh, no helmets and, um, a lot of fisticuffs. Uh, 374 00:20:29,060 --> 00:20:33,260 S5: you know, the Supreme Court then sends in the Mirabella case, 375 00:20:33,260 --> 00:20:35,939 S5: and that's the one we're talking about. Um, the Supreme 376 00:20:35,940 --> 00:20:42,140 S5: Court sends the case back to the Ninth Circuit and says, no, um, the, uh, 377 00:20:42,140 --> 00:20:48,460 S5: the injunction should stand. Um, and, um, it's not, you know, 378 00:20:48,500 --> 00:20:52,060 S5: constitutional for school districts to not respect the rights of 379 00:20:52,060 --> 00:20:56,740 S5: parents and inform them with regard to these important child issues. Uh, 380 00:20:56,740 --> 00:20:59,540 S5: because after all, it's the parent that's paramount, not the 381 00:20:59,540 --> 00:21:02,580 S5: state or the public school in terms of raising and 382 00:21:02,580 --> 00:21:07,500 S5: nurturing the child morally, socially, physically, and every other way. Um, 383 00:21:07,500 --> 00:21:09,180 S5: so it goes back to the ninth circuit. But here's 384 00:21:09,180 --> 00:21:12,420 S5: what happens in those cases, because I've been involved in those, 385 00:21:12,900 --> 00:21:14,500 S5: they get back to the Court of Appeals, and then 386 00:21:14,820 --> 00:21:18,540 S5: there's infighting between the parties about, well, what did the 387 00:21:18,540 --> 00:21:20,020 S5: Supreme Court really mean? 388 00:21:20,060 --> 00:21:21,820 S1: What did they really mean? 389 00:21:21,859 --> 00:21:26,940 S5: You know, I, I, I protest that they didn't say 390 00:21:27,140 --> 00:21:34,980 S5: enough about abuse. So therefore, by omission of the word abuse, Um, 391 00:21:35,220 --> 00:21:40,700 S5: we should add a disclaimer on the injunction, but if 392 00:21:40,740 --> 00:21:45,380 S5: you find any hint or even suspicion or even a 393 00:21:45,420 --> 00:21:50,700 S5: rumor about abuse, then we can enforce this unconstitutional policy. 394 00:21:51,380 --> 00:21:56,780 S5: And the ninth Circuit said, okay, but this is this 395 00:21:56,780 --> 00:22:00,500 S5: is what happens. The Supreme Court can't address every possible 396 00:22:00,500 --> 00:22:05,540 S5: nuance in its decision, because the decisions would go on 397 00:22:05,540 --> 00:22:09,020 S5: for thousands of pages, and it would take them hundreds 398 00:22:09,020 --> 00:22:13,460 S5: of days just to read the decisions out in court. So, uh, 399 00:22:13,700 --> 00:22:17,340 S5: what the Council for the school districts and the state 400 00:22:17,380 --> 00:22:22,260 S5: of California did is they looked for any opening to say, well, 401 00:22:22,260 --> 00:22:24,100 S5: we still want to apply this policy, even though the 402 00:22:24,100 --> 00:22:28,139 S5: Supreme Court said 6 to 3 that we shouldn't. So, um, 403 00:22:28,300 --> 00:22:32,460 S5: remember when you and I talked about it, um, I reiterated, 404 00:22:32,540 --> 00:22:35,500 S5: which I've done many times because it needs. It's so important. 405 00:22:35,500 --> 00:22:41,940 S5: It needs to be remembered that for centuries, perhaps even millennia, 406 00:22:42,660 --> 00:22:46,859 S5: Western civilization has recognized that in all of its laws, 407 00:22:46,859 --> 00:22:51,859 S5: including American common law, English, common law, and European law 408 00:22:52,100 --> 00:22:55,580 S5: has recognized that the parents have the primary right to 409 00:22:55,619 --> 00:22:59,419 S5: raise their children and not the state, not the government, 410 00:22:59,420 --> 00:23:03,140 S5: unless there's two. One of two things abuse or neglect 411 00:23:04,220 --> 00:23:07,219 S5: and neglect really doesn't apply to what California wants to 412 00:23:07,220 --> 00:23:12,100 S5: do on these gender ideology issues, but abuse does, because 413 00:23:12,100 --> 00:23:14,540 S5: what they can say is the parent is abusing the 414 00:23:14,540 --> 00:23:19,419 S5: child by not recognizing their new gender status. The child 415 00:23:19,420 --> 00:23:23,740 S5: wants it because they've been propagandized or whatever. So that 416 00:23:23,740 --> 00:23:27,900 S5: was their, that was their, uh, their little corridor, you know, 417 00:23:27,940 --> 00:23:30,979 S5: the little narrow gate that they would use to be 418 00:23:31,020 --> 00:23:34,660 S5: able to open up enforcement while the case went forward 419 00:23:34,700 --> 00:23:38,780 S5: is they'd start targeting parents as abusive because they weren't 420 00:23:38,780 --> 00:23:43,379 S5: caving in to their children. Um, ninth circuit said, no, uh, no, 421 00:23:43,380 --> 00:23:46,379 S5: we're not going to let you do that. And rightfully so. Um, 422 00:23:46,660 --> 00:23:51,340 S5: because the, the presupposition about parents rights, Janet, has been 423 00:23:51,380 --> 00:23:54,460 S5: those two exceptions are the only exceptions to the right 424 00:23:54,460 --> 00:23:56,900 S5: of parents to make those decisions, to be informed by 425 00:23:56,900 --> 00:23:59,380 S5: the school district or the government when the government has 426 00:23:59,380 --> 00:24:02,419 S5: custody of the child or possession of them temporarily during 427 00:24:02,420 --> 00:24:02,980 S5: a school day. 428 00:24:03,060 --> 00:24:05,900 S1: So in common parlance, California tried to do an end 429 00:24:05,940 --> 00:24:08,180 S1: run around the Supreme Court, and they got stopped on 430 00:24:08,180 --> 00:24:11,500 S1: the play. Right? Okay. And so and remember, this whole 431 00:24:11,500 --> 00:24:12,500 S1: issue came out of California. 432 00:24:12,500 --> 00:24:14,860 S5: But they weren't they aren't giving up. See, that's how 433 00:24:14,900 --> 00:24:19,580 S5: entrenched their doctrinal view is. Uh, the parents aren't important. 434 00:24:19,619 --> 00:24:21,100 S5: The state will determine. 435 00:24:21,140 --> 00:24:24,100 S1: Yeah, that's. Well, look well to the ways of your household. 436 00:24:24,100 --> 00:24:25,820 S1: What did Nehemiah say? You can say it with me. 437 00:24:25,859 --> 00:24:29,060 S1: Fight for your families. And this is part of that 438 00:24:29,060 --> 00:24:31,060 S1: mandate to fight for them. We're going to take a 439 00:24:31,060 --> 00:24:32,740 S1: break and come right back. This is in the market 440 00:24:32,740 --> 00:24:35,900 S1: with Janet. Partial. That's Greg partial. We'll continue right after this. 441 00:24:59,780 --> 00:25:02,140 S1: Anyone can read the news every day. And in the market, 442 00:25:02,140 --> 00:25:04,100 S1: we're committed to telling the news as seen through the 443 00:25:04,100 --> 00:25:06,900 S1: lens of Scripture. As Christians, we must be informed about 444 00:25:06,900 --> 00:25:09,780 S1: what's going on in the world and respond appropriately. When 445 00:25:09,780 --> 00:25:11,899 S1: you become a partial partner, you ensure that we continue 446 00:25:11,940 --> 00:25:14,700 S1: here on your station, equipping the church to discuss current events. 447 00:25:14,700 --> 00:25:17,580 S1: Using the Bible as our solid foundation. Why not become 448 00:25:17,580 --> 00:25:21,300 S1: a partial partner today? Call 877 Janet 58 or go 449 00:25:21,300 --> 00:25:26,500 S1: online to In the Market with Janet Parshall. So just 450 00:25:26,500 --> 00:25:29,260 S1: in keeping in this theme about fighting for your children again. 451 00:25:29,340 --> 00:25:31,139 S1: God hasn't given us a spirit of fear. Don't let 452 00:25:31,140 --> 00:25:34,060 S1: this stuff make you afraid. Just make it. Make you 453 00:25:34,100 --> 00:25:37,060 S1: pay attention so that you understand that greater is he 454 00:25:37,060 --> 00:25:39,060 S1: that is in you than he that is in the world, 455 00:25:39,060 --> 00:25:41,300 S1: and that Satan hates the family because the family was 456 00:25:41,300 --> 00:25:44,379 S1: created in a place of perfection. In Eden, Adam and 457 00:25:44,380 --> 00:25:47,900 S1: Eve constitute the first family. He says, be fruitful and multiply. 458 00:25:48,140 --> 00:25:50,780 S1: And Satan is threatened by the family because that's where 459 00:25:50,780 --> 00:25:54,020 S1: the values of scripture get passed down. And Scripture tells 460 00:25:54,020 --> 00:25:56,220 S1: us to instruct us to do that. And I hope 461 00:25:56,220 --> 00:25:57,980 S1: that we are doing that. So if you can tear 462 00:25:57,980 --> 00:26:00,820 S1: apart the family, which is even Alexis de Tocqueville in 463 00:26:00,820 --> 00:26:03,899 S1: the 1800s organized or recognize this, he said, the family 464 00:26:03,900 --> 00:26:06,540 S1: in America is the cornerstone institution upon which all of 465 00:26:06,540 --> 00:26:08,820 S1: society rests. If you can tear down the family, you 466 00:26:08,820 --> 00:26:11,500 S1: can help to have a society crumble. We fight for 467 00:26:11,500 --> 00:26:14,180 S1: the family because we understand how important it is to God. 468 00:26:14,180 --> 00:26:16,700 S1: He creates three institutions. I've said this for a thousand times. 469 00:26:16,700 --> 00:26:19,020 S1: I'll say it for a thousand times more. He creates 470 00:26:19,020 --> 00:26:21,820 S1: the family, government and the church in that order. And 471 00:26:21,820 --> 00:26:23,620 S1: the only one of the three created in a place 472 00:26:23,619 --> 00:26:26,540 S1: of perfection is the family. Doesn't mean it's going to 473 00:26:26,540 --> 00:26:29,900 S1: be easy, but that is that important unit that not 474 00:26:29,900 --> 00:26:32,900 S1: only is about the companionship and the interpersonal relationships and 475 00:26:32,900 --> 00:26:35,540 S1: the dynamics among people in that family group, but it's 476 00:26:35,540 --> 00:26:38,260 S1: emblematic of the fact that we are his children. We 477 00:26:38,260 --> 00:26:42,300 S1: haven't been adopted into his family. We love the son 478 00:26:42,300 --> 00:26:44,460 S1: who gives us access to the father. All of those 479 00:26:44,460 --> 00:26:47,940 S1: family things are not there by accident. It's with specificity 480 00:26:47,940 --> 00:26:50,540 S1: that God creates a practical paradigm so that he can 481 00:26:50,540 --> 00:26:53,860 S1: give us his deep spiritual truths. So there's an organization 482 00:26:53,859 --> 00:26:57,379 S1: now that sets the agenda for about 130,000 school counselors 483 00:26:57,380 --> 00:27:00,260 S1: all across the U.S. that now is promoting a left 484 00:27:00,260 --> 00:27:04,940 S1: wing activist program that advocates for transgender ideology and critical 485 00:27:04,940 --> 00:27:07,740 S1: race theory. You would have thought critical theory had been 486 00:27:07,740 --> 00:27:10,420 S1: thrown to the wayside because it's been so discredited. And 487 00:27:10,420 --> 00:27:13,100 S1: transgender ideology, with all the Supreme Court rulings and the 488 00:27:13,100 --> 00:27:15,380 S1: cut in federal funding and the fact that our own 489 00:27:15,420 --> 00:27:17,780 S1: HHS has pulled back now and said, uh, this stuff's 490 00:27:17,780 --> 00:27:19,900 S1: not going to happen for minors and hospitals on their 491 00:27:19,900 --> 00:27:22,980 S1: own volition. Many of them are stopping. And the first 492 00:27:22,980 --> 00:27:25,940 S1: bona fide medical group, the American Association of Plastic Surgeons, 493 00:27:25,940 --> 00:27:27,900 S1: has stepped step forward and said, oh no, no, no, 494 00:27:27,900 --> 00:27:31,060 S1: we're not doing this anymore. You would have thought the ideologues, 495 00:27:31,060 --> 00:27:35,180 S1: because remember, transgenderism is an ideology. It's not a diagnosis 496 00:27:35,340 --> 00:27:38,460 S1: that they would have said, oh, game over. We're done. Nope, 497 00:27:38,500 --> 00:27:41,100 S1: not at all. There's a group out there called Courage 498 00:27:41,100 --> 00:27:43,700 S1: is a Habit. I love the name. That said, while 499 00:27:43,700 --> 00:27:47,419 S1: the American people are actively rejecting the harms of transgender ideology, 500 00:27:47,420 --> 00:27:49,899 S1: the invasion of women's private spaces, and the culture of 501 00:27:49,900 --> 00:27:54,780 S1: critical race theory, the American School Counselor Association is working 502 00:27:54,780 --> 00:27:58,980 S1: overtime to install these very radical isms into our daughters. 503 00:27:59,180 --> 00:28:03,780 S1: So apparently the ACA, the American School Counselor Association, uh, 504 00:28:03,820 --> 00:28:10,580 S1: counts about 42,000 of the nation's 131,230 school counselors as members, 505 00:28:10,859 --> 00:28:14,100 S1: and which releases guidance for the entire profession. They had 506 00:28:14,100 --> 00:28:20,219 S1: a webinar February 19th promoting the Lean in Girls program. Uh, 507 00:28:20,500 --> 00:28:24,300 S1: and it's a leadership program for girls ages 11 to 15. 508 00:28:24,530 --> 00:28:29,410 S1: And they said by leveraging its position of trust, they've 509 00:28:29,410 --> 00:28:32,530 S1: lost it now. The American School Counselor Association is using 510 00:28:32,530 --> 00:28:36,570 S1: the Lean in Girls curriculum as a tactical cover to 511 00:28:36,609 --> 00:28:40,050 S1: smuggle a divisive political agenda into our schools under the 512 00:28:40,050 --> 00:28:42,690 S1: fraudulent banner of mental health and leadership. This, according to 513 00:28:42,730 --> 00:28:45,930 S1: the courage as a habit group. This representative said that 514 00:28:45,930 --> 00:28:49,250 S1: the organization is, quote, using its access to 11 year 515 00:28:49,290 --> 00:28:53,690 S1: old girls. Wow pawns pawns on the chessboard to install 516 00:28:53,690 --> 00:28:57,450 S1: a curriculum which promotes men in women's spaces. That's called cheating. 517 00:28:57,450 --> 00:28:59,490 S1: When I grew up, the daughter of a football coach 518 00:28:59,490 --> 00:29:04,410 S1: that would be cheating and political agitation. Now that's activism, indoctrination, 519 00:29:04,410 --> 00:29:07,410 S1: not education. All while telling parents it's just a, quote, 520 00:29:07,450 --> 00:29:10,970 S1: leadership program. It is a massive betrayal, he said of 521 00:29:10,970 --> 00:29:15,610 S1: parental trust. The courage is a habit. Report apparently exposes 522 00:29:15,610 --> 00:29:19,130 S1: their support for transgender ideology and critical race theory. Craig. 523 00:29:19,410 --> 00:29:22,090 S1: In other words, like you said about California, these groups 524 00:29:22,090 --> 00:29:24,690 S1: just don't give up and you have to step back, 525 00:29:24,730 --> 00:29:26,970 S1: take a deep breath and say, why are you so 526 00:29:26,970 --> 00:29:29,530 S1: fascinated with our children? Why is it imperative that you 527 00:29:29,530 --> 00:29:32,610 S1: fingerprint them with your ideology? Believe it if you want to, 528 00:29:32,810 --> 00:29:35,050 S1: but stop trying to impose it on my child. 529 00:29:35,410 --> 00:29:40,970 S5: Um, I think there is a kind of utopian vision 530 00:29:41,530 --> 00:29:46,250 S5: that people with that mind view, that worldview, have, that 531 00:29:46,250 --> 00:29:49,330 S5: if they could just be given control over all of us, 532 00:29:50,170 --> 00:29:53,330 S5: there would be no more wars, there would be perfect children, 533 00:29:53,330 --> 00:29:57,690 S5: and there would be peace and love for everyone. Some 534 00:29:57,690 --> 00:30:01,130 S5: of the people involved in these movements do believe that. 535 00:30:01,610 --> 00:30:05,650 S5: Some simply are socialists and don't like capitalism, don't like 536 00:30:05,690 --> 00:30:09,410 S5: traditional families, and don't like the constitutional form of government 537 00:30:09,410 --> 00:30:13,010 S5: that we have. But whatever the reason, it really has 538 00:30:13,010 --> 00:30:17,650 S5: to be exposed and opposed. The reason is because either 539 00:30:17,650 --> 00:30:22,770 S5: you believe in God's plan for the human race, Starting 540 00:30:22,770 --> 00:30:27,730 S5: with the family and marriage and then going to government. 541 00:30:28,010 --> 00:30:32,050 S5: The general rule being, as Paul says, the government and 542 00:30:32,090 --> 00:30:35,290 S5: the Apostle Peter said the same thing in his epistles, 543 00:30:35,530 --> 00:30:39,050 S5: that the role of government is to restrain evil and 544 00:30:39,050 --> 00:30:45,930 S5: promote good, and they have the power granted power to 545 00:30:45,970 --> 00:30:49,570 S5: be able to execute that. So that's the vision that God, 546 00:30:49,570 --> 00:30:53,890 S5: through His Word has provided for government restrain evil and 547 00:30:53,890 --> 00:30:57,450 S5: promote good. And the definition of good can be found 548 00:30:57,450 --> 00:31:01,290 S5: within the covers of your Bible. God has also revealed 549 00:31:01,290 --> 00:31:05,250 S5: that as well. The principles that show us what is 550 00:31:05,610 --> 00:31:07,690 S5: a blessing and a positive for the human race and 551 00:31:07,690 --> 00:31:11,850 S5: those things that are dangerous and harmful. Um, that now 552 00:31:12,290 --> 00:31:16,250 S5: how does that work with public schools? Well, if they 553 00:31:16,290 --> 00:31:21,130 S5: were to recognize what Western civilization has recognized for, uh, 554 00:31:21,370 --> 00:31:25,370 S5: you know, a thousand years that the parents are the 555 00:31:25,370 --> 00:31:31,330 S5: primary persons who, uh, are to be given the authority 556 00:31:31,330 --> 00:31:35,330 S5: over raising the child in terms of their worldview, their beliefs, 557 00:31:35,330 --> 00:31:40,370 S5: their religious, um, affiliation and how they view themselves, including 558 00:31:40,370 --> 00:31:44,250 S5: their gender. Um, that's the Western view for a thousand years. 559 00:31:44,490 --> 00:31:47,530 S5: These are radicals who say it's time to change that. 560 00:31:47,970 --> 00:31:50,970 S1: So just one more note on this. And again, there 561 00:31:50,970 --> 00:31:54,490 S1: may be some wonderful, godly, Christ honoring school counselors out there. 562 00:31:54,730 --> 00:31:56,610 S1: And then there are others that are not. So all 563 00:31:56,610 --> 00:31:57,970 S1: I can tell you is a mom or a dad. 564 00:31:58,010 --> 00:32:00,970 S1: Buyer beware. No. Your school counselor. Know where they're coming from, 565 00:32:01,010 --> 00:32:03,530 S1: understand their worldview, and understand whether or not this person 566 00:32:03,530 --> 00:32:06,090 S1: is a friend or a foe to the worldview that 567 00:32:06,090 --> 00:32:09,610 S1: you are stilling in your child. A biblical worldview, because 568 00:32:09,610 --> 00:32:11,370 S1: there are forces out there that want your child to 569 00:32:11,370 --> 00:32:14,610 S1: have anything but a biblical worldview. I've looked at the handbook. 570 00:32:14,650 --> 00:32:18,450 S1: It's 30 pages long in the gender inclusion section. Uh, 571 00:32:18,450 --> 00:32:21,650 S1: they point out that, quote, some teams may identify strongly 572 00:32:21,650 --> 00:32:23,850 S1: with being a girl. Isn't that weird? A girl might 573 00:32:23,850 --> 00:32:27,490 S1: identify being a girl, while others may be exploring their 574 00:32:27,490 --> 00:32:30,410 S1: gender identity and may feel uncomfortable with the label girl. 575 00:32:30,410 --> 00:32:31,969 S1: And so what do they do for their resources? They 576 00:32:31,970 --> 00:32:33,969 S1: tell you to go to the Southern Poverty Law Center, 577 00:32:34,010 --> 00:32:37,250 S1: the group that is created, the hate map that identifies 578 00:32:37,250 --> 00:32:40,450 S1: groups like focus on the family, the American Family Association is, quote, 579 00:32:40,490 --> 00:32:44,890 S1: hate groups, and therefore they're the enemy. They're the terrible enemy. 580 00:32:44,890 --> 00:32:48,850 S1: Then they also cite the British LGBT group Stonewall Gay 581 00:32:48,850 --> 00:32:51,770 S1: rights Group and glisten, another gay rights group. So there's 582 00:32:51,770 --> 00:32:55,250 S1: not a single conservative perspective on this at all. It 583 00:32:55,250 --> 00:32:58,170 S1: is everything about advancing an ideology. All I'm telling you 584 00:32:58,170 --> 00:33:00,250 S1: is Mom and Dad, you've been told, now do your 585 00:33:00,250 --> 00:33:02,250 S1: homework and look well to the ways of your household. 586 00:33:02,250 --> 00:33:05,450 S1: In the meantime, here's another bizarre story. Uh, and I'm 587 00:33:05,450 --> 00:33:08,690 S1: harkening back to the previous administration. And again, that's past. 588 00:33:08,690 --> 00:33:10,690 S1: But you need to know what was being done because 589 00:33:10,690 --> 00:33:14,010 S1: this could be done in the future. That's why elections matter, 590 00:33:14,010 --> 00:33:16,010 S1: why your vote counts, anything goes. Oh, my vote doesn't 591 00:33:16,010 --> 00:33:19,490 S1: make any difference. Politics is about people and people create policy. 592 00:33:19,490 --> 00:33:21,210 S1: It's just that simple. I can't tell you who to 593 00:33:21,250 --> 00:33:22,850 S1: vote for, I never would. But I want you to 594 00:33:22,850 --> 00:33:25,570 S1: understand the process that when you vote, you end up 595 00:33:25,570 --> 00:33:28,130 S1: putting in place people with a worldview. It's either going 596 00:33:28,170 --> 00:33:30,890 S1: to align with what you believe, not perfect. Everything East 597 00:33:30,890 --> 00:33:33,490 S1: of Eden is not perfect. Just wake up call. It's not. 598 00:33:33,530 --> 00:33:35,570 S1: We're not there yet. This is not as good as 599 00:33:35,570 --> 00:33:38,490 S1: it gets. But there are distinctions and levels of threats 600 00:33:38,490 --> 00:33:40,050 S1: against the family that you and I need to be 601 00:33:40,050 --> 00:33:43,970 S1: aware of. So apparently, the previous administration turned its attention 602 00:33:43,970 --> 00:33:47,970 S1: to concerned parents in the fall of 2021 because the C. 603 00:33:47,970 --> 00:33:51,210 S1: I a got a laugh about this stuff. The Central 604 00:33:51,210 --> 00:33:56,770 S1: Intelligence Agency drafted a memo warning that white racial extremists 605 00:33:56,810 --> 00:34:02,370 S1: were recruiting women for traditional motherhood and homemaking. Uh oh, 606 00:34:02,610 --> 00:34:04,090 S1: what a revolutionary idea. 607 00:34:04,130 --> 00:34:05,850 S5: Wow. Anarchy is going to break out. 608 00:34:05,930 --> 00:34:09,049 S1: Watch those moms and homemakers. So the CIA produced an 609 00:34:09,050 --> 00:34:13,810 S1: intelligence assessments focused on, quote, women advancing white, racially and 610 00:34:13,810 --> 00:34:20,009 S1: ethnically motivated violent extremist radicalization and recruitment on October 6th, 2021. 611 00:34:20,010 --> 00:34:21,770 S1: All of this stuff now is validated. You had the 612 00:34:21,770 --> 00:34:24,690 S1: sense that something was off. Now we've got thanks to 613 00:34:24,730 --> 00:34:27,049 S1: FOIA and the Freedom of Information Act. That's why what 614 00:34:27,050 --> 00:34:29,730 S1: Craig told you before, earlier about FOIA was so important 615 00:34:29,730 --> 00:34:34,170 S1: that they were actually going after moms that somehow if 616 00:34:34,170 --> 00:34:37,969 S1: there were people advancing traditional motherhood and homemaking, you were 617 00:34:37,969 --> 00:34:39,770 S1: a bad, terrible guy. You were the ones that you 618 00:34:39,770 --> 00:34:43,650 S1: had to watch out for. So apparently, um, the CIA 619 00:34:43,690 --> 00:34:47,049 S1: director noted that the document falls short of the high 620 00:34:47,050 --> 00:34:49,969 S1: standards of impartiality that the CIA must hold. 621 00:34:50,130 --> 00:34:51,210 S5: What an understatement. 622 00:34:51,250 --> 00:34:52,370 S1: Exactly. 623 00:34:52,410 --> 00:34:54,049 S5: Let's go after the moms. 624 00:34:55,489 --> 00:34:59,090 S1: There is absolutely no room, said Ratcliffe, uh, for bias 625 00:34:59,090 --> 00:35:02,050 S1: in our work. And when we identify instances where analytic 626 00:35:02,050 --> 00:35:05,610 S1: rigor has been compromised, there was no academic rigor at all. 627 00:35:05,610 --> 00:35:08,970 S1: It was pure ideology. We have a responsibility to correct 628 00:35:08,969 --> 00:35:10,930 S1: the record. And then he stated that actions such as 629 00:35:10,930 --> 00:35:15,450 S1: releasing the document, quote, underscore our commitment to transparency, accountability, 630 00:35:15,450 --> 00:35:21,089 S1: and objective intelligence analysis. And so, um, the fact the 631 00:35:21,090 --> 00:35:23,450 S1: part of the report says this is what the assessment says, 632 00:35:23,450 --> 00:35:26,850 S1: we assess that female members have been emerging as key 633 00:35:26,850 --> 00:35:32,730 S1: players of the transnational white, racially and ethnically motivated violent extremists. 634 00:35:32,730 --> 00:35:36,370 S1: They even have initials. Everything's got initials in Washington. It's Reem, 635 00:35:36,370 --> 00:35:41,209 S1: V r e m v e. Racially and ethnically motivated 636 00:35:41,210 --> 00:35:44,089 S1: violent extremists. Watch those moms with their frying pans. They 637 00:35:44,090 --> 00:35:47,410 S1: are dangerous act, and they're taking on diverse roles to 638 00:35:47,450 --> 00:35:52,290 S1: advance white Reem v roles, including the white Reem V 639 00:35:52,330 --> 00:35:54,930 S1: view of traditional motherhood. What an insult, by the way, 640 00:35:54,930 --> 00:35:57,169 S1: to my black and brown sisters who are mothers and 641 00:35:57,170 --> 00:36:01,850 S1: believe in homemaking and being a mom and successfully participating 642 00:36:01,850 --> 00:36:05,370 S1: in newer roles in propaganda and recruitment. So there you go. 643 00:36:05,410 --> 00:36:08,370 S1: We moms. I tell you, Craig, the hand that rocks 644 00:36:08,370 --> 00:36:11,610 S1: the cradle rules the world. And now the CIA knows 645 00:36:11,610 --> 00:36:13,969 S1: that we moms are the biggest threat out there. You 646 00:36:13,969 --> 00:36:16,570 S1: know why? Because we say you're grounded. Give me your device. 647 00:36:16,610 --> 00:36:18,210 S1: Go to your room and you can't watch TV for 648 00:36:18,210 --> 00:36:21,730 S1: a week. That makes us a bad mom. Makes us extremists. 649 00:36:22,090 --> 00:36:24,690 S1: Exactly right. Let the record reflect, Your Honor, that we 650 00:36:24,690 --> 00:36:28,730 S1: as mothers were not elected. We were appointed to our position. 651 00:36:28,770 --> 00:36:32,330 S1: The highest, most noble calling we can have. Even if 652 00:36:32,330 --> 00:36:35,890 S1: the CIA and the previous administration thought we were a threat. 653 00:36:35,890 --> 00:36:38,450 S1: There you go, mom. Have a good laugh. It's way 654 00:36:38,450 --> 00:36:40,169 S1: before Mother's Day. But I'm going to tell you what. 655 00:36:40,210 --> 00:37:07,170 S1: Happy Mother's Day. We'll be back after this. So we 656 00:37:07,170 --> 00:37:09,690 S1: often talk about free speech, and we need to be 657 00:37:09,690 --> 00:37:12,089 S1: looking at the United Kingdom as a case study. And 658 00:37:12,090 --> 00:37:14,330 S1: what happens in the erosion of free speech. I mean, 659 00:37:14,570 --> 00:37:16,890 S1: I have so much stuff that I could share with 660 00:37:16,890 --> 00:37:19,210 S1: you on a regular basis about what's happening. I've watched 661 00:37:19,210 --> 00:37:22,649 S1: video this morning of a woman having the police come 662 00:37:22,650 --> 00:37:26,570 S1: to her door at 230 in the morning, because somebody 663 00:37:26,570 --> 00:37:29,210 S1: didn't like what she posted on Facebook. So the cops 664 00:37:29,210 --> 00:37:31,730 S1: come to her house at 230 in the morning. You know, 665 00:37:31,770 --> 00:37:35,089 S1: this is like George Orwellian, you know, thug tactics. And 666 00:37:35,090 --> 00:37:37,649 S1: she said, what was my crime? You offended someone by 667 00:37:37,650 --> 00:37:41,570 S1: what you posted on the Facebook page. Well, and then 668 00:37:41,570 --> 00:37:44,850 S1: they were going to arrest her. And it's just it's ludicrous. 669 00:37:45,170 --> 00:37:48,169 S1: And not only that, but we're watching the colonization of 670 00:37:48,170 --> 00:37:51,410 S1: Islam in the UK. I, I don't know if it's 671 00:37:51,410 --> 00:37:54,210 S1: a hustle for votes or you think you're being inclusion, 672 00:37:54,450 --> 00:37:57,450 S1: but it is a subtle but steadfast takeover. They had 673 00:37:57,450 --> 00:38:01,330 S1: this monster prayer thing in Trafalgar Square. If you've ever 674 00:38:01,330 --> 00:38:03,970 S1: been in London, it's this huge in the city centre 675 00:38:03,969 --> 00:38:07,489 S1: square where thousands of Muslims stopped and prayed. They did 676 00:38:07,489 --> 00:38:09,250 S1: the same thing in Birmingham. I watched a video this 677 00:38:09,250 --> 00:38:13,610 S1: morning of 30,000 Muslims praying in Birmingham now. That's great. 678 00:38:13,610 --> 00:38:16,810 S1: Would you allow 30,000 Christians in Trafalgar Square? Listening to 679 00:38:16,850 --> 00:38:19,930 S1: Chris Tomlin, would you. Would you allow that really would 680 00:38:19,930 --> 00:38:23,970 S1: the the the the Prime Minister allow people, 30,000 Christians 681 00:38:23,969 --> 00:38:26,489 S1: to be praising Jesus? Well, I don't think so. And 682 00:38:26,489 --> 00:38:28,290 S1: I'm going to tell you why. Now, the audio is 683 00:38:28,290 --> 00:38:30,529 S1: a little different here, but I want you to get 684 00:38:30,530 --> 00:38:34,049 S1: the sense of the emotion. This is a Christian street 685 00:38:34,210 --> 00:38:38,650 S1: street preacher on the streets in London days after the 686 00:38:38,690 --> 00:38:42,250 S1: Trafalgar Square, mass. Islamic prayer. Have a listen. 687 00:38:43,370 --> 00:38:47,570 S6: Don't worry. All you have to do is policeman arresting. 688 00:38:47,570 --> 00:38:48,850 S7: A preacher in Stratford. 689 00:38:49,650 --> 00:38:53,969 S6: What will you tell me? What have I done? No, no, no. 690 00:38:54,610 --> 00:39:00,370 S6: I've had ample opportunity to provide your details. Don't worry. Okay. Yeah. 691 00:39:00,410 --> 00:39:09,169 S6: I just don't want it to. Penalize you. Don't worry, 692 00:39:10,650 --> 00:39:12,810 S6: my friend. we go from there. 693 00:39:15,530 --> 00:39:16,210 S7: Do you want to take it? 694 00:39:16,969 --> 00:39:18,370 S6: It's got to go with him. You got to take 695 00:39:18,370 --> 00:39:21,609 S6: it with him. I want to know which section of 696 00:39:21,610 --> 00:39:24,170 S6: the law permits him. When he said the criminal act 697 00:39:24,170 --> 00:39:28,850 S6: that he has to give his name. As well. 698 00:39:33,370 --> 00:39:36,290 S1: So you get the chaos in the scene. So apparently, 699 00:39:36,290 --> 00:39:38,969 S1: he was arrested near the Stratford station while he was 700 00:39:38,969 --> 00:39:41,489 S1: preaching the gospel. And the police gave the reasons of 701 00:39:41,489 --> 00:39:44,290 S1: his arrest for needing a license or a permit for 702 00:39:44,290 --> 00:39:47,010 S1: the location. A failure to notify the council in advance 703 00:39:47,010 --> 00:39:51,410 S1: using loudspeakers amplified sound, obstructing the walkway positioned at a 704 00:39:51,450 --> 00:39:55,210 S1: restricted evacuation. Quote safety point. Now, all of this happened 705 00:39:55,330 --> 00:39:59,890 S1: days after thousands gathered for a mass Muslim prayer in 706 00:39:59,930 --> 00:40:06,010 S1: Trafalgar Square hosted by the mayor of London during Ramadan. Now, 707 00:40:06,210 --> 00:40:09,770 S1: that would be preferential treatment for one particular region. We 708 00:40:09,770 --> 00:40:12,200 S1: live in a pluralist society. People with all different worldviews, 709 00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:15,480 S1: all different religions. Great, terrific. The government cannot give due 710 00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:18,279 S1: deference to one religion here in the United States. That's 711 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:20,040 S1: why we had a little revolution. It was about a 712 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:23,399 S1: whole lot more than tea. And they apparently don't look 713 00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:25,359 S1: at the First Amendment because they don't have one like 714 00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:29,520 S1: we do. So the government cannot impose a particular religion, 715 00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:31,600 S1: and it has to have a level playing field for 716 00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:34,840 S1: all religions and those who believe absolutely nothing. So you 717 00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:40,279 S1: allowed this mass experience sponsored, hosted by the mayor of 718 00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:43,320 S1: London for Muslims, but you pick up a street preacher 719 00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:46,160 S1: outside of the Stratford station because he didn't have a 720 00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:49,040 S1: permit to gather there. Did all of those Muslims have 721 00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:51,160 S1: a permit from the mayor of London to be able 722 00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:53,760 S1: to pray? In the 30,000 that gathered in Birmingham filled 723 00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:56,280 S1: a football field? Did they allow. Did they have permits? 724 00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:58,839 S1: I don't think so. So there's a two tiered system 725 00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:01,279 S1: in the UK. And then add to this, Craig, that 726 00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:04,000 S1: in due deference to what's going on in the UK, 727 00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:07,520 S1: flying the British flag has now been branded a tool 728 00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:10,920 S1: of hate in a new document put out by Keir 729 00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:13,520 S1: Starmer's government. I feel sorry for the people. They need 730 00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:16,640 S1: a new prime minister. It's a 47 page document, and 731 00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:19,560 S1: it says that British, English and Scottish flags can be 732 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:23,440 S1: used as hate symbols. The document says the quote extreme 733 00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:27,080 S1: right has tried to symbol of prides into tools of hate, 734 00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:29,400 S1: and the flags have been used by the extreme right 735 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:33,280 S1: to exclude or intimidate. You know, there's a reason why 736 00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:36,040 S1: Lewis Carroll wrote Alice in Wonderland in the UK, because 737 00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:38,440 S1: the rabbit has clearly fallen down the hole. Your time? 738 00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:40,960 S5: Yeah. If you were to pick a country in the 739 00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:44,839 S5: world other than the United States with a legal history 740 00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:49,839 S5: and a protection of rights, the rights of men and 741 00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:53,520 S5: women and families that is closest to America, it's always 742 00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:57,560 S5: been the United Kingdom. But this is a sign of 743 00:41:57,560 --> 00:42:01,360 S5: what happens when you do not have a constitutional form 744 00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:05,759 S5: of government with a written constitution. England does not. They 745 00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:10,120 S5: have Magna Carta, you know, but that doesn't spell individual 746 00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:13,080 S5: rights out at all. They have no written constitution. They 747 00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:16,799 S5: have constitutional principles that change with the cultural winds and 748 00:42:16,800 --> 00:42:20,360 S5: the political pressure. This is a perfect example. We have 749 00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:22,920 S5: freedom of speech in the First Amendment. You and I 750 00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:26,880 S5: have talked about that in numerous cases, that the Supreme 751 00:42:26,880 --> 00:42:30,440 S5: Court has affirmed the vitality of that document. If you 752 00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:34,359 S5: don't have those constitutional protections, then you have chaos, then 753 00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:38,120 S5: you have tyranny, then you have a totalitarian takeover of 754 00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:41,480 S5: the individual rights and the right to preach the gospel, 755 00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:44,600 S5: not only in words, but in your actions. And that's 756 00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:47,560 S5: the consequence. Now, we should, number one, thank God for 757 00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:50,400 S5: his providential care for America, that we do have a 758 00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:54,880 S5: written constitution that in our Constitution. And it almost didn't 759 00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:58,160 S5: happen that those rights in the First Amendment were spelled out. 760 00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:00,720 S5: We had a Constitution first, in terms of the structure 761 00:43:00,719 --> 00:43:03,440 S5: of the government, but a promise had been made that 762 00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:08,000 S5: once the Constitution was intact and ratified. Then the first 763 00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:12,719 S5: Congress's business would be to draw up the. Rights in 764 00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:15,480 S5: the Bill of rights and have that confirmed and ratified 765 00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:18,840 S5: as well. And that's exactly what happened. So thank you, God, 766 00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:21,880 S5: for the providential care of that. Thank you for the 767 00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:26,280 S5: founders who were following a Christian consensus of those rights 768 00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:28,399 S5: and the need for that kind of a government, and 769 00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:32,800 S5: the fact that we are alone in the planet for 770 00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:36,040 S5: protection of these kinds of rights. But we will have 771 00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:39,560 S5: those rights only in the Constitution as long as we 772 00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:43,120 S5: keep them. Keep them is the key word. We have 773 00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:47,440 S5: a Supreme Court that informs them that, uh, that enforces 774 00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:51,560 S5: them in terms of their, uh, definition and applying them, 775 00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:56,240 S5: but only as long as we have justices who are 776 00:43:56,280 --> 00:44:00,560 S5: nominated by a Senate that we elect. And you have 777 00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:03,000 S5: to know what they stand for and what are the 778 00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:06,399 S5: first principles of government. and you got to know what 779 00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:07,560 S5: you believe and why you believe it. 780 00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:12,520 S1: Do you realize how unique and special and divinely guided 781 00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:15,400 S1: our system of government is to have this system of 782 00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:18,359 S1: checks and balances? The UK doesn't have that. Okay. You 783 00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:21,080 S1: got the queen, the titular head, the king, now titular 784 00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:24,080 S1: head of the government, really doesn't have any governing power, 785 00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:26,400 S1: just uses kind of bully pulpit. And then you have 786 00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:29,319 S1: the parliament, which is divided between those people who got 787 00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:31,640 S1: their job because they were born into a family, the 788 00:44:31,640 --> 00:44:33,600 S1: House of Lords, they're elected recently. 789 00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:36,800 S5: They changed that, but not entirely, not entirely. 790 00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:39,239 S1: Exactly. And then the House of Commons, but just the 791 00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:41,840 S1: Lords versus the Commons. So it's built on a class 792 00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:44,080 S1: system right out of the gate. But I'm thinking how 793 00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:46,640 S1: precious it is that what we understand is the basics 794 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:48,640 S1: in nature of man. And we've talked in this program 795 00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:50,239 S1: in the past about how that idea of the three 796 00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:53,640 S1: branches were constructed, but it really is the American experiment. 797 00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:56,440 S1: And you know what, 250 years ago we said, Goodbye 798 00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:59,960 S1: Great Britain. I'm still singing that song. Have a great weekend, friends. 799 00:44:59,960 --> 00:45:01,560 S1: We'll see you next time on In the Market with 800 00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:02,480 S1: Janet Parshall.
