Speaker 1: Voice, the truth the mainstream won't touch. This guy is

6
00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:16,440
Speaker 1: by definition of globals and the stories that matter.

Speaker 1: America's Voice Live starts now.

16
00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:44,200
Speaker 2: Welcome to America's Voice Live. I'm Steve Grew.

17
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:46,559
Speaker 1: It is January, the first, in the Year of our Lord,

18
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:49,360
Speaker 1: two thousand and twenty six. Happy New Year to all

19
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:51,200
Speaker 1: of you watching at home. We have a great show

20
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:52,680
Speaker 1: line up for your day, So let's dive right in,

21
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 1: shall we. As we head into the new year now,

22
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:57,560
Speaker 1: many are optimistic about the future, whether it's because of

23
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 1: better policies and more powerful economy, or just happy to

24
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 1: have an America First present like Donald Trump back in

25
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:05,480
Speaker 1: the Oval office. One thing I think we need to

26
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 1: pay close attention to is the issue of crime in America.

27
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 1: Twenty twenty five was a double edged sword for Republicans.

28
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:13,680
Speaker 1: We saw Donald Trump's first year of his second term,

29
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:16,400
Speaker 1: where he acted quickly to keep his campaign promises of

30
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:20,080
Speaker 1: securing the border, deporting illegal aliens, driving down inflation so

31
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:23,840
Speaker 1: much more. However, we also saw the assassination of someone

32
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 1: who I consider a colleague and a friend, Charlie kirk Gunnen,

33
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 1: down in front of hundreds of students at Utah Valley University,

34
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 1: and for what for talking and having different opinions and

35
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:36,959
Speaker 1: values than those on the left. On top of that,

36
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 1: we've seen multiple senseless shootings that have claimed many innocent eyes,

37
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 1: from the church shooting in Minnesota back in August to

38
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:46,200
Speaker 1: the Brown University shooting in early December. Joemy to discuss

39
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 1: all of this and how we can move forward and

40
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 1: making America safer. In twenty twenty six, his former FBI

41
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 1: special agent Kenneth Strange.

42
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 2: Kenn I thank you for being here.

43
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 5: Steve, thank you for having me on.

44
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, we saw some really stomplishments by the FBI here,

45
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 1: locating and securing the pipe bomber, tracking down the man

46
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 1: who we believe murdered Charlie Kirk.

47
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:13,399
Speaker 2: Of course, they found the assailant.

48
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 1: At Brown University and possibly tied to a killing at

49
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 1: MIT as well, found out in a storage unit.

50
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 2: That took a few days longer than expected.

51
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:22,840
Speaker 1: But the FBI really has had a pretty good close

52
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 1: to twenty twenty five.

53
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:25,720
Speaker 2: From where I said, what are your thoughts?

54
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:30,079
Speaker 5: No, Steve, I absolutely agree with you. I think the

55
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 5: FBI has had some remarkable success early on. You know,

56
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,640
Speaker 5: I like what I see with the new director and

57
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,079
Speaker 5: they you know, they're they're out to prove something and

58
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 5: they're proving it and they're coming they're coming home with results.

59
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 1: Now, Dan Bongino is going to step down as the

60
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:55,920
Speaker 1: assistant FBI Director deputy assistant and moved back to his programs,

61
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,800
Speaker 1: but he also has contributed to the success in the

62
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 1: first year. Does the FBI need to go to reestablish

63
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 1: itself as the premier law enforced manajery. We saw a

64
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,160
Speaker 1: lot of crazy things going to the DJ and so

65
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,359
Speaker 1: forth in the previous four years. I feel like we're

66
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:10,720
Speaker 1: on the right track. But what are some of the

67
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 1: things you'd like to see implemented going forward?

68
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 5: Well, look, I think we are on the right track.

69
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 5: And I think, you know, that's just a matter of

70
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:25,639
Speaker 5: mister Bongino feeling more comfortable with his podcast, his successful podcast.

71
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 5: But I think Cash Bettel will replace Dan with another

72
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 5: fine individual, maybe someone that has been with the Bureau

73
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 5: in leadership for some time and knows the Bureau inside

74
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 5: and out. So I think one of the steps that

75
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 5: was very positive was moving so many agents out from

76
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:52,840
Speaker 5: the Washington Field office I'm sorry, at headquarters out to

77
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 5: different field offices in the country. Had become very top heavy,

78
00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 5: and I thought that was also a good move. But

79
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 5: I think overall, well, you know, I would give this,

80
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 5: give them an A or an a minus for the

81
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:05,760
Speaker 5: first what twelve months.

82
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, there were some other remarkable crops. Rob

83
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 1: Reiner and his wife murdered by their son in Hollywood.

84
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 1: We saw that at the top of the fold. We

85
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:18,719
Speaker 1: see a lot of these domestic crimes that turn into

86
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:23,159
Speaker 1: a horrible outcome. Where can we go in America, Kenneth,

87
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 1: to make people, I don't know, more sane. Is that

88
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 1: a crazy thing to ask that we have people that

89
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 1: are just more saying? I mean, these mass shootings are

90
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 1: horrendous attacks on people's parents and murdered horrendous.

91
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:37,600
Speaker 2: What is it with Americas?

92
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 1: These say, have we devalued life so much and made

93
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 1: it a TikTok world or a video game world where

94
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 1: people are just, I don't know, disconnected from the reality

95
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 1: of what happens when you pulled the trigger or pull

96
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:49,920
Speaker 1: the knife.

97
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 5: Steve, Sadly, I think you're not so far off the mark.

98
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 5: I think there's also a mental health component in all

99
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 5: of this, and you know, as you said, a lot

100
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:04,919
Speaker 5: of it, I think is by what people are seeing

101
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:09,279
Speaker 5: in the social media, they become disconnected from their fellow man.

102
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,279
Speaker 5: And you know, there's a lot of noise out there.

103
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 5: Even during the Brown University fiasco, I noticed that there

104
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 5: were a lot of posts coming out when they were

105
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:24,360
Speaker 5: accusing different people of being the suspect. So that will

106
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 5: confuse people, make people angry, make them crazy. You know,

107
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 5: you know, we're living in interesting times.

108
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 1: Sadly, you know, one of the other big stories, of course,

109
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 1: you see a lot of people talking about, obviously the

110
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 1: murder of Charlie Kirk, and you mentioned podcasters earlier, and

111
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,599
Speaker 1: I want to go there for a moment, because these podcasters,

112
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:46,840
Speaker 1: some of them, think they're entitled to the entire book

113
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 1: of evidence.

114
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 2: They're entitled to all the facts.

115
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 1: And have them in front of them and if not, man,

116
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 1: they're going to stop their feet and pound their fist.

117
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:57,360
Speaker 2: Look the Utah case, the capital case, and in Utah.

118
00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,160
Speaker 1: It's probably true everywhere, but in Utah you have to

119
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:01,560
Speaker 1: go twelve for twelve in the jury to get a

120
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:02,719
Speaker 1: death penalty sentence.

121
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 4: Right.

122
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,920
Speaker 1: So it's not like these podcasters are entitled to the evidence,

123
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,280
Speaker 1: are they. I mean, I understand people's curiosity, they want

124
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 1: to know what are the facts, But some of these

125
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:13,360
Speaker 1: folks seem to step out of their lane.

126
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:13,880
Speaker 2: Am I wrong?

127
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:19,280
Speaker 5: Oh, you're absolutely right. And I'm very disappointed with some

128
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 5: of these podcasters who have taken taken upon themselves to

129
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 5: be the what is it? The judge, jury and the execution. So,

130
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:31,040
Speaker 5: you know, we have to be very careful with what

131
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 5: we watch, what we digest, what we think we understand,

132
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,359
Speaker 5: because it's not always what it seems to be.

133
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:44,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, I look at the case they're in Utah, and look,

134
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 1: Ockham's raiser is usually where I go. The simplest answer

135
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:50,840
Speaker 1: is often the answer to go to. Now, it might

136
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:54,280
Speaker 1: not satisfy your conspiracy theories, It might not satisfy a

137
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 1: lot of things, But yes, can I thirty odd six

138
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 1: kill a man at that distance and not have an

139
00:06:58,040 --> 00:06:59,919
Speaker 1: exit wound, Yes, that can happen.

140
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 2: In fact, I believe that is what happened.

141
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,359
Speaker 1: I look at other high profile cases Brian Coberger, the

142
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:08,960
Speaker 1: guy now convicted of killing those University of Idaho students. Again,

143
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 1: it's great police work, working close to the vest, using

144
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,240
Speaker 1: the facts, and getting to the bottom of the mystery.

145
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 2: That's what matters the most.

146
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 1: And so that's why I get so angry with some

147
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,520
Speaker 1: of these people that just I mean, they get lots

148
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 1: of money, they get lots of followers and lots of clicks.

149
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 1: But I think that the FBI and local law enforcement,

150
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 1: say law enforcement have all work together on these things

151
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 1: to have the outcomes like you had in the Coburger case.

152
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 5: Yeah. Absolutely, it is a total team effort. And you know,

153
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 5: if you think it's anything less than you're sadly mistaken.

154
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 5: You know, in the case of Charlie Kirk and I

155
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:51,320
Speaker 5: would just say this, Steve, the only complaint I have

156
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:54,320
Speaker 5: or I think I think a risk assessment would have

157
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 5: been would have come in a very I mean, I

158
00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:01,520
Speaker 5: think the risk assessment was what was needed for Charlie Kirk.

159
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 5: I know that there were problems and he had hired

160
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 5: bodyguards to protect them and without maybe taking a bigger look.

161
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 5: And I think if if he had to discussed what

162
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 5: he was doing, where he was going, what he was

163
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 5: about to do with the campus police and local police,

164
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 5: they might have been able to help him with a

165
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 5: risk assessment and that would have would have, you know,

166
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:26,600
Speaker 5: maybe it would have saved his life. They probably would

167
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 5: have moved things indoors.

168
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, Now, Kenneth, other crimes that don't get as much

169
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 1: publicity but are certainly on the radar of the FBI.

170
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,720
Speaker 1: Financial crimes, I mean corruption, Like we're seeing a flow

171
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:41,600
Speaker 1: out of Minneapolis, Minnesota. These are major crimes. We're talk

172
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 1: about billions of dollars. You see money laundering operations, you

173
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 1: see other things. Now, maybe they're not as sexy, maybe

174
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:49,600
Speaker 1: they don't grab the headlines, maybe they don't get the

175
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:51,839
Speaker 1: clicks like some of the other things, but they're every

176
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:53,680
Speaker 1: bit as important to make sure we clean up the

177
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:57,200
Speaker 1: fraud and the corruption in some of these places like Minneapolis.

178
00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 5: You agree absolutely. I mean that you had individuals coming

179
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:07,679
Speaker 5: from Philadelphia. These are crooks from Philadelphia who I believe

180
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 5: were just recently indicted, and the word on the street

181
00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:16,040
Speaker 5: in Philadelphia was, hey, there's some great opportunities to make

182
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:19,960
Speaker 5: some money out in Minnesota. Wink wink. So these people

183
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 5: took advantage of it. And that's part of the whole

184
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,240
Speaker 5: thing about fraud and the fraud schemes. You know, you

185
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:29,959
Speaker 5: have to have an opportunity, and there's certainly the opportunity

186
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 5: is rithe in Minnesota. So you can imagine these criminals

187
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:37,400
Speaker 5: and many many more attracted by the opportunity to get

188
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 5: rich quick.

189
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, and we're seeing the same thing happening in the

190
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 1: state of Maine now and a lot of these roots,

191
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 1: not all of them, but of the eighty seven people

192
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 1: charged so far in Minneapolis, seventy eight have roots to Somalia.

193
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 2: Same thing we're seeing in the state of Maine.

194
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:55,240
Speaker 1: These are organ This is organized crime by definition, isn't it.

195
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 5: Yes, absolutely, Steve. This is the new mafia, the new

196
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:04,040
Speaker 5: crime families. And you know, with the look, I've been

197
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 5: all over the world, and I've lived all over the world,

198
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 5: so I have nothing against the Somalia or the Somali people.

199
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,560
Speaker 5: But you know, when you look at the at the

200
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:16,679
Speaker 5: Ranking and Transparency International of Somalia. They are one hundred

201
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 5: and seventy nine out of one eighty on the corruption

202
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 5: Corruption Index. So you know that's that's kind of a

203
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:27,360
Speaker 5: red flag in itself, and people have to pay more attention.

204
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:31,199
Speaker 5: Nobody was looking, nobody distracted.

205
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,440
Speaker 1: You know what you're telling me is that's a cottage industry.

206
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 1: That's what that's what they're trained to do. I mean,

207
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:39,719
Speaker 1: if that's the way the culture is, and that's the

208
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,520
Speaker 1: way you're raised and you import that culture, well then

209
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 1: that's what you're going to get.

210
00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:45,320
Speaker 2: That's what you're telling me, right.

211
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,120
Speaker 5: That's exactly what I'm telling you. And here we are

212
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,960
Speaker 5: with such a generous nation, and we say, you know, come,

213
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 5: you know, give us your your your tired masses. You

214
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 5: know you're poor, you're weary, whatever, and you know there

215
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,080
Speaker 5: are people that are going to take advantage and have,

216
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:02,920
Speaker 5: as you can see, have taken advantage of rosity.

217
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:07,320
Speaker 1: Kind of strange, good discussion to start the new year.

225
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:41,719
Speaker 7: Morentry.

226
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:50,800
Speaker 8: Every the radical left knows exactly what they're doing. They

227
00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:56,720
Speaker 8: want to steal the election. We're going to walk down Pennsylvania.

228
00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 8: Haven't you to peace? Lly and Patrea, make your voices heard.

229
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:07,040
Speaker 9: Events in Washington have taken a violent and tumultuous took.

230
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 10: January sixth wasn't just a moment in history for thousands

231
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:35,040
Speaker 10: of Americans. It was the moment their voices were taken.

232
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:36,200
Speaker 7: It's insurrection.

233
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:40,040
Speaker 9: They were persecuted, hunted seditious conspiracy.

234
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:44,440
Speaker 10: But behind prison wolves something unexpected happened. They found their

235
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 10: voice again.

236
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 5: Started singing the national anthem.

237
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,280
Speaker 11: We took it up to him at mar Lado appleby

238
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 11: voice on our supporters made this go.

239
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 10: Real America's Voice is telling the real story of January

240
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 10: six like you've never seen it before.

241
00:12:58,800 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 3: This must be peace.

242
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 10: This is not the story you were shown I trade responsibility.

243
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,920
Speaker 12: This is the story they lived government and trapment scheme

244
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:09,120
Speaker 12: that this actually.

245
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 10: Was the j six Patriots are no longer staying silent.

246
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 2: They are speaking.

247
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 10: They are standing, and they are telling the truth.

248
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:19,200
Speaker 4: You can't kill us, you can't be us.

249
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 10: They tried to silence them. Instead, they woke up an

250
00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:30,839
Speaker 10: entire nation, the sleeping giant coming soon.

251
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:36,679
Speaker 2: Twenty five behind us.

252
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:38,800
Speaker 1: Many Americans now wondering what the year ahead has going

253
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:41,320
Speaker 1: to look like for their wallets. For the economy, the

254
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 1: topic of affordability has been at the forefront, of course,

255
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 1: especially in the latter half of twenty twenty five. Brother

256
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:49,240
Speaker 1: and Trump was able to cut costs on some essential things,

257
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 1: such as gas prices just in time for holiday travel.

258
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 1: I mean gas below two fifty agawn all over this

259
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:56,800
Speaker 1: country now below two dollars in a number of places.

260
00:13:56,800 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 1: And at his address has addressed to the nation December six,

261
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 1: Trump noted that his administration inherited a Batta county under

262
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:04,960
Speaker 1: the Biden administration.

263
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:07,079
Speaker 2: Further noted that the best is yet to come.

264
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:11,720
Speaker 1: Hopefully sigainly have stronger emphasis on implementing an actionable plan

265
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 1: that can reduce overall costs for everyone. Joey to discuss this,

266
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:19,000
Speaker 1: Managing partner at Chapwood Investments ed Mutowski, and nice to

267
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:19,320
Speaker 1: see you.

268
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 7: Good to see you as well.

269
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:26,040
Speaker 1: Let's start with this ed overall in totality, I would

270
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 1: just say this that I wish I'd taken every nikola

271
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 1: I had and bought silver in January of twenty twenty

272
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:33,920
Speaker 1: five and would have gone up one hundred and fifty

273
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:38,000
Speaker 1: percent or something like that, something crazy. But overall, the markets,

274
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:41,520
Speaker 1: the economy, where are we almost a year into Donald

275
00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 1: Trump's presidency compared to where we've been.

276
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 9: Well, we're at slow and steady, and that's what people want.

277
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:52,400
Speaker 9: You know, under Biden you had just dramatic ups and

278
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 9: downs in the economy and that was not good. And

279
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 9: the mark is one predictability. Now we talk about a

280
00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 9: FOURD of ability. And the idea that Trump is going

281
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 9: to be able to bring prices lower, I think is

282
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 9: kind of a dream because prices rarely come lower.

283
00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:13,479
Speaker 7: But the rate of change is what Trump.

284
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 9: Should be heralding, and that is that inflation is much

285
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 9: lower than it was, so the rate of increases has

286
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 9: decreased quite a bit, and that's what he should be

287
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:26,920
Speaker 9: focused on, not that he's going to bring prices down,

288
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:31,400
Speaker 9: because as long as consumers are buying things at higher prices,

289
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:35,840
Speaker 9: then manufacturers are going to continue to charge exactly that price.

290
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:37,520
Speaker 7: So affordability.

291
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, yeah, I mean that's exactly Income has gone up,

292
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 1: I think for twenty twenty five overall across board, three

293
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:48,320
Speaker 1: and a half percent increase in real wages, so that's

294
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 1: a plus. Grocery prices from January through December increased, but

295
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:54,160
Speaker 1: only one point two percent.

296
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 2: You're talking about stabilizing the prices.

297
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 1: That not necessari bringing back the other way because of

298
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:00,800
Speaker 1: we had more than twenty percent cumulitiy of inflation during

299
00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:01,480
Speaker 1: the Biden years.

300
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 2: It's not going to go the other way.

301
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 1: These companies are making the money they're making, They're going

302
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 1: to stay there. It's a stabilization of the economy, isn't it.

303
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 7: That's exactly right.

304
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:13,680
Speaker 9: Then people want stability and they want to know what's

305
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:15,640
Speaker 9: going to cost. I mean, if there's something on sale,

306
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,480
Speaker 9: you know, we're all over it right now. During Christmas time,

307
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 9: you know, my wife and I are looking to you know,

308
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 9: get things as cheap as we can possibly get them.

309
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 7: But they're not coming any lower.

310
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,840
Speaker 9: But the rate of change has slowed, and that's what

311
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:31,400
Speaker 9: people continue to forget. And that's which Trump when he's

312
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 9: doing his town halls, would talk about because he's not

313
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,520
Speaker 9: going to be able to bring prices lower. Although with

314
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:41,280
Speaker 9: eggs and milk and so on, you know, he does

315
00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:44,800
Speaker 9: have some impact on that, but mostly package goods and

316
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 9: toys and other things. He's not going to be able

317
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 9: to bring those prices lower. Just he's going to be

318
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:52,480
Speaker 9: able to bring wages higher, which is going to help

319
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 9: close that gap, and that's what we need.

320
00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:58,440
Speaker 1: I don't know how many records we said on Wall

321
00:16:58,440 --> 00:16:59,920
Speaker 1: Street this year, and we said a lot of rut

322
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 1: I remember there was a book a number of years

323
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:06,199
Speaker 1: ago that was called down thirty six thousand, and the

324
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,080
Speaker 1: guy that wrote the book was mocked, that will never happen.

325
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:13,439
Speaker 1: We're sniffing fifty thousand ed or sniffing fifty thousand. I

326
00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:15,800
Speaker 1: would expect that to happen in twenty twenty six if

327
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,920
Speaker 1: we stay even roughly on this path.

328
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:21,960
Speaker 9: Your thoughts, well, when I was at Morgan Stanley, we

329
00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:26,240
Speaker 9: had these little signs that said ten thousand by two thousand.

330
00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:30,640
Speaker 9: Nobody ever thought, excuse me, we would get to ten

331
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 9: thousand on the Dow. But at some point we'll be

332
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,520
Speaker 9: talking about getting to one hundred thousand. Because it's just

333
00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:41,000
Speaker 9: a percentage of growth, you know, it's really not the

334
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:44,960
Speaker 9: absolute number that matters. It's the percentage growth that matters.

335
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:49,360
Speaker 9: And you know, if we're sniffing around, fifty ten percent.

336
00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:50,240
Speaker 7: Growth will get us to.

337
00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:54,200
Speaker 9: Fifty five thousand, and that's really not that dramatic a number.

338
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:57,640
Speaker 7: So we all have to get used to the idea.

339
00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:01,200
Speaker 9: That percentages are what matters, the absolute number.

340
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:05,600
Speaker 1: So that is really important. And you know, look, I

341
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 1: look at the economy this way. We had a record

342
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 1: setting Black Friday, record setting Cyber Monday. When we get

343
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:14,000
Speaker 1: the numbers in for Christmas, we don't have those yet.

344
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:18,720
Speaker 1: A trillion dollars was the prediction. So ed, that's the

345
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 1: mark of an economy that people have some confidence in,

346
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:24,159
Speaker 1: despite the naysayers out there on social media or in

347
00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:27,040
Speaker 1: the news markets. The fact of the matter is, if you

348
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:29,240
Speaker 1: spend a trillion dollars at Christmas at all time records,

349
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 1: something's going right, isn't it.

350
00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 4: Yeah.

351
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:35,960
Speaker 7: I mean, you know, there's just more money in the economy.

352
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 9: And I sit here and look at new accounts that

353
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 9: I get, and if I get a five million dollar

354
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,480
Speaker 9: account five years ago, I was like, wow, that's a

355
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:47,239
Speaker 9: lot of money. Today that's an average account, and just

356
00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 9: there's just so much more money out there. That we

357
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:54,720
Speaker 9: are dealing with that everyone has to kind of reset

358
00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:57,360
Speaker 9: what the norm is. And something I want to talk

359
00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:02,359
Speaker 9: about also is that all because we go through January first.

360
00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:05,240
Speaker 7: Does not mean that people need to make changes in their.

361
00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:09,719
Speaker 9: Investment portfolio because the economy didn't change because we went

362
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:15,119
Speaker 9: over January first, the you know, the economy has remained

363
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,520
Speaker 9: the same. We're probably going to see two or three

364
00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:20,680
Speaker 9: interest rate cuts in the first half of next year.

365
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:23,879
Speaker 9: That's a lot more than what the feed is predicting.

366
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:28,240
Speaker 9: And then you should be looking at senior rate, floating notes,

367
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 9: business development companies.

368
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:31,760
Speaker 7: Utilities, and REAP.

369
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,680
Speaker 9: And these are the four categories really strong on in

370
00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:41,159
Speaker 9: twenty twenty five, especially utilities. But remember all because the

371
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:45,120
Speaker 9: calendar changes doesn't mean the economy has changed.

372
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:48,440
Speaker 1: Well, I'm going to give you one last good number.

373
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:50,359
Speaker 1: I've only got twenty seconds for you to respond. But

374
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 1: the last inflation number released in December for the previous

375
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:57,120
Speaker 1: month of November two point seven percent. Two point seven

376
00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:59,879
Speaker 1: we're below three percent, it's working twenty percent.

377
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 2: Twenty seconds.

378
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,960
Speaker 9: Last word to you, Well, absolutely, I mean everything Trump

379
00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 9: is doing is affecting the cost the price increases and

380
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:12,640
Speaker 9: the velocity of those increases, and as long as that continues,

381
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:14,760
Speaker 9: and as long as wages go up, we're going to

382
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,160
Speaker 9: have a really, really you know.

383
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:18,159
Speaker 7: A Kuna matata.

384
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:22,919
Speaker 1: Twenty twenty six excellent from Chapwood Investments.

385
00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:25,840
Speaker 2: Ed Batowski, he's bullied on twenty six, So on my ed,

386
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 2: Happy New Year, you too.

387
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:28,240
Speaker 7: Thank you.

388
00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:32,360
Speaker 2: All right, we'll take a break and we'll be right back.

389
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:44,560
Speaker 1: And welcome back to this New Year's Day edition of

390
00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:48,399
Speaker 1: America's Voice Life. President Trump recently designated fentanyl as a

391
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:52,560
Speaker 1: weapon of mass destruction. This poison, brought in by narco terrorists,

392
00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 1: claims American lives equal to the deaths of nine to

393
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:57,280
Speaker 1: eleven every ten days.

394
00:20:57,760 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 2: It all starts in China.

395
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 1: China is the primary sore, so the precursor chemicals used

396
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 1: to manufacture the illicit fentyl.

397
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:06,080
Speaker 2: Then they sell it to countries like Venezuela.

398
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:08,720
Speaker 1: And Mexico, then turned the compounds into a dangerous poison

399
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:10,840
Speaker 1: that kills people in this country every year. I spoke

400
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:13,320
Speaker 1: to Brian Glenn recently on this topic, a man who

401
00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 1: spends most of his time at the White House. Here's

402
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:19,840
Speaker 1: the conversation. Fentel's a big deal, and if you know

403
00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 1: in the headlines right now. It's the destruction. I think

404
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 1: three more boats got vaporized in the last couple of days.

405
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 1: And the Democrats seem to have this idea that the

406
00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:32,560
Speaker 1: guy driving the drug boat is more important.

407
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:32,880
Speaker 2: Than the funerals.

408
00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:35,560
Speaker 1: I highlighted at the top of this program of real

409
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 1: Americans bring their sons and daughters because fentel's been sprinkled

410
00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:42,760
Speaker 1: into cocaine, because you've got senators from the Democrats, and

411
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:45,879
Speaker 1: well it's just cocaine. Yeah, cocaine that gets laced with fentanyl.

412
00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:48,080
Speaker 1: I have a friend of mine, Brian, who's nineteen year

413
00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:51,119
Speaker 1: old college son, died last year because he smoked a

414
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 1: joint on the weekend. It was laced with fentyl. This

415
00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:56,560
Speaker 1: kid died. I mean everybody went out and scoot around

416
00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:59,560
Speaker 1: of college. Most of us did, right, This kid paid

417
00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:03,800
Speaker 1: The price is life. Why do the Democrats not understand

418
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,600
Speaker 1: the true price that we're paying in American cities large

419
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:07,240
Speaker 1: and small.

420
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:09,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know, Steve.

421
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 6: Just before we were on the show, I was kind

422
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:12,879
Speaker 6: of going over the internet looking at some of the

423
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,360
Speaker 6: stories about this topic, and I even saw a lot

424
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:19,159
Speaker 6: of left leaning news outlets even questioning the amount of

425
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:23,240
Speaker 6: people that have died of fitnyl overdose and really disputing that,

426
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:26,600
Speaker 6: like does it matter if ten people die or ten

427
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:27,720
Speaker 6: thousand people die.

428
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,080
Speaker 3: It's human lives and they want to argue with the

429
00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:32,760
Speaker 3: president on that fact. The fact of the matter is,

430
00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:33,840
Speaker 3: though the.

431
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,840
Speaker 6: Fitnahl, the majority of fitnal that comes into the country

432
00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 6: comes from Mexico, does it necessarily come from Venezuela.

433
00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 3: Yes, they are a part of it, and drugs do flow.

434
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:44,720
Speaker 6: And the boats are on your screen right now, and

435
00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 6: all the evidence is there that those are the boats

436
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:51,960
Speaker 6: that are traveling towards our country to import drugs. But

437
00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:56,119
Speaker 6: the finnyl comes from China. The actual fininyl comes from China.

438
00:22:56,240 --> 00:23:00,320
Speaker 6: It's assembled Mexico in pill form. Yes, they do, that's right,

439
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:03,199
Speaker 6: and then they come into our country. So, Steve, I

440
00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:06,120
Speaker 6: ask you this, if we're going to pick on Venezuela

441
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,800
Speaker 6: right now in terms of fighting the war on drugs,

442
00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:11,480
Speaker 6: then when he had turned that attention to Mexico as well.

443
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:14,160
Speaker 6: Now we've locked down that border, so we know those

444
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:19,720
Speaker 6: drugs in China. You're absolutely right, but you know I

445
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:20,760
Speaker 6: shined by two.

446
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:24,960
Speaker 2: Well, go ahead, no, go ahead.

447
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:26,560
Speaker 3: With Shinebaum, I'd like to hear about this.

448
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:28,000
Speaker 2: Well, I was going to say this.

449
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:33,240
Speaker 1: The president does eight cartels as terrorist organizations, two in Venezuela,

450
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 1: six in Mexico. And Claudia Shinbaum, the president of Mexico, says,

451
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,000
Speaker 1: we will not allow the Americans to come in here.

452
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:41,119
Speaker 2: And destroy those cartels.

453
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:46,600
Speaker 1: Well, she can say that, but special Forces, rangers, seals,

454
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:52,160
Speaker 1: whatever specified targets smoke those cartels and their operations.

455
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:53,200
Speaker 2: Now Mexico's tried.

456
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:56,000
Speaker 1: They've arrested thirty seven thousand drug criminals in the last

457
00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,119
Speaker 1: few months as a result of Donald Trump's pressure.

458
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:01,600
Speaker 2: But he is finally just disrupting the money. But you're

459
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:02,480
Speaker 2: right about China.

460
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:07,240
Speaker 1: Look, those component chemicals come from China, they arrive in Mexico,

461
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:10,440
Speaker 1: they're combined into the deadly drug fentinel, and then shipp

462
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:13,479
Speaker 1: wherever it goes to get it into this country. From

463
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:17,680
Speaker 1: my perspective, China has conducted an active war by doing

464
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:21,399
Speaker 1: that and continuing to sell those chemicals two Mexican drug cartels.

465
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:24,480
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody disputes that. What's your thought?

466
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:25,360
Speaker 3: Now?

467
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 6: I agree with you. Remember the argument was made against Canada.

468
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:32,159
Speaker 6: Of as far as you know, President Trump was saying, well, Canada,

469
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,199
Speaker 6: you're you're allowing Fitinel to pour in.

470
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:37,439
Speaker 3: Very little Fitnahl was pouring in from Canada.

471
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:40,160
Speaker 6: It was all coming from our southern border, which comes

472
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:42,119
Speaker 6: from other places like China.

473
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 3: I like this war on drugs that he's doing.

474
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:46,680
Speaker 6: I like the fact that he designated a weapon of

475
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:49,760
Speaker 6: mass destruction. I like the fact that he's designated these

476
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:55,159
Speaker 6: drug narco terrorists as foreign terrorist organization. I like that

477
00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:57,800
Speaker 6: he gives a military the ability to take action.

478
00:24:57,680 --> 00:24:59,040
Speaker 3: On these boats and on these people.

479
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 6: But if we're going to why the same rules to Venezuela,

480
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:04,359
Speaker 6: Let's take them to our south of the border and

481
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:07,960
Speaker 6: do the same thing there. Let's hold these people accountable

482
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:10,480
Speaker 6: for killing thousands of Americans.

483
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 5: Appens there.

484
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 1: You haven't, Brian Glenn, don't go anywhere. This new Year's

485
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 1: edition of America's Voice Live will continue in a moment.

486
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:40,520
Speaker 1: Jomie no I have discussed the success at the border

487
00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:42,320
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty five and what we can expect to

488
00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:45,240
Speaker 1: see in twenty twenty six from America Fast is rap

489
00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:48,000
Speaker 1: coorse might have been Burkwam been good to see you

490
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:51,359
Speaker 1: here today. Look, it's been a year of and if

491
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:53,480
Speaker 1: I'm reading this right, and you would know best, Ben

492
00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:58,680
Speaker 1: border crossings around ninety six ninety seven percent. I mean,

493
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:01,400
Speaker 1: you cannot put a big enough circle in a red

494
00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 1: marker around that to give it enough emphasis down ninety six.

495
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:08,719
Speaker 1: The Democrats soul is all got to have immigration reform.

496
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 1: Oh you know, Republicans aren't doing anything in Congress. We

497
00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:15,199
Speaker 1: can't do anything about this wrong. You can close the

498
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:17,359
Speaker 1: border and make it secure pretty obviously, can't you.

499
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:22,880
Speaker 11: Yeah, Uh, it's very very simple. You don't put out

500
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:28,320
Speaker 11: a big welcome sign, space available and free welfare for

501
00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:32,280
Speaker 11: everybody who comes across, to any illegals, you say the

502
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:34,640
Speaker 11: doors are closed. So the Democrats for four years under

503
00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:37,439
Speaker 11: Joe Biden, you know, the string polers of Joe Biden,

504
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:41,000
Speaker 11: had the doors wide open, and of course the world came.

505
00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:43,119
Speaker 3: I mean, when you're when you start.

506
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:46,119
Speaker 11: This controlled flow operation that Secretary Marcus did, and you

507
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:48,520
Speaker 11: go to every country in Latin America and you say, hey,

508
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:50,199
Speaker 11: we're going to come down here and help make it

509
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:53,720
Speaker 11: easier for illegals to get through your countries. Well, what

510
00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:55,280
Speaker 11: do you think is going to happen when they get

511
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:58,679
Speaker 11: to our border? They think they're invited, and they come across,

512
00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:01,399
Speaker 11: and you got Catholic charities and through social services and

513
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 11: Jewish Family Services all too happy to receive them because

514
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:08,080
Speaker 11: then we're paying them to then distribute them into our country.

515
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:11,000
Speaker 11: President Trump comes in and says, nope, that's all done.

516
00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:14,480
Speaker 11: And within days, actually within hours, the CBP one app

517
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 11: was gone. Now it's CVP home, So we're actually having

518
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:20,359
Speaker 11: people self deport with the CBP home app at the

519
00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 11: borders closed. I mean, it's very simple. Democrats wanted open borders.

520
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:28,520
Speaker 11: They invited the invasion. President Trump and his administration did

521
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:30,840
Speaker 11: not want the invasion. And now were we stopped the

522
00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:33,800
Speaker 11: bleeding and now we're repelling what they did, the damage

523
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:34,959
Speaker 11: that the Democrats caused.

524
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:40,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know you can, you can remember then you

525
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 1: watched this happen, so did I.

526
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:44,320
Speaker 2: It wasn't just that the border was open.

527
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:49,080
Speaker 1: We saw things like bulldozers taking out razor wire that

528
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,200
Speaker 1: been put on the border by the state of Texas,

529
00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:54,240
Speaker 1: for example, to stop the invasion, and the federal government

530
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:55,960
Speaker 1: came in and plowed it out of the way as

531
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:58,880
Speaker 1: the illegals poured in, unvetted on shot and then unleashed

532
00:27:58,920 --> 00:27:59,600
Speaker 1: in this country.

533
00:27:59,680 --> 00:27:59,920
Speaker 2: Right.

534
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:05,760
Speaker 11: Yeah. I was actually in Matamoros, Mexico, across from Brownsville, Texas,

535
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:08,159
Speaker 11: and I'm there interviewing these illegals that were in this

536
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:11,159
Speaker 11: camp with twenty five hundred illegals in it where they

537
00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:14,119
Speaker 11: just swim across the river, and they had Texas had

538
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 11: put razor wire up, and I look behind me. I'm

539
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:18,919
Speaker 11: actually talking. I'm doing my little you know, my reports

540
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:21,720
Speaker 11: I'm doing, and all of a sudden, I hear this excavator,

541
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:24,439
Speaker 11: the sound of the beat beat backing up excavator. I

542
00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:27,160
Speaker 11: look over and they're actually lifting the razor wire up

543
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:30,040
Speaker 11: to let illegals underneath it, and they're clearing a path

544
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:32,199
Speaker 11: through the through the brush to let them in.

545
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:35,120
Speaker 3: And then you think, oh, I wonder why they kept.

546
00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,639
Speaker 11: Coming to the point where, even when Texas tried to

547
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 11: do things like the Booie the Booye barriers that were

548
00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:42,440
Speaker 11: very effective putting them in the middle of the river,

549
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 11: making it harder for people to come across, the federal

550
00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 11: government sued Texas to try to prevent them from securing

551
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:53,000
Speaker 11: their own state. I mean, it was ludicrous. What we

552
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,920
Speaker 11: saw under Joe Biden the Democrats for those four years

553
00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 11: is exactly what you would have had done if you

554
00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:02,040
Speaker 11: were the cartel. It was the perfect operation if the

555
00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:05,520
Speaker 11: cartel was running our government. They did exactly what they

556
00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:08,040
Speaker 11: would have wanted them to do. And sadly, I think

557
00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:10,440
Speaker 11: it's possible that the cartel was running parts of our

558
00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:12,360
Speaker 11: government during Joe Biden's last term.

559
00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 1: And now I was going to ask you, man, it's

560
00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:19,200
Speaker 1: pretty clear the cartels run places in Mexico and Venezuela.

561
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:23,640
Speaker 1: Claudia Scheinbaum said, we're not allowing any American intervention into Mexico. Look,

562
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 1: the President designated eight different cartels, is fourign terrorist organizations,

563
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:31,520
Speaker 1: two in Venezuela, six in Mexico. I can guarantee you

564
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:35,960
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty six, the relentless pursuit of drug traffickers

565
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:38,560
Speaker 1: is not going to slow down, not one bit. It's

566
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:41,240
Speaker 1: going to continue. We're going to continue to blow nargo

567
00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,720
Speaker 1: boats out of the water. We're going to blockade ships

568
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,280
Speaker 1: coming in and out of Venezuela with illegal illicit oil,

569
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:48,840
Speaker 1: and we're gonna something's going to happen in Mexico because

570
00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 1: they are the biggest offender. I don't see how you

571
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:54,440
Speaker 1: go anywhere but straight out to the cartels, as Joe

572
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:56,920
Speaker 1: Biden said in nineteen ninety eighty nine, hit them where

573
00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:59,360
Speaker 1: they live, right yeah.

574
00:29:59,480 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 5: Yeah.

575
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:04,520
Speaker 11: And now designating fetanoyl as a weapon of mass destruction,

576
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:08,840
Speaker 11: that's just released more of the options that President Trump

577
00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:12,240
Speaker 11: has to not just attack these guys, these terrorists, but

578
00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:15,520
Speaker 11: also prosecute them. And so there's a you know, everything

579
00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 11: that President Trump is doing right now is an assault

580
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:20,680
Speaker 11: against the enemies of this nation. But think about this,

581
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:22,440
Speaker 11: consider this, and it's the same thing that I was

582
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:25,360
Speaker 11: told when I was down in Mexico. I asked, is

583
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:27,200
Speaker 11: anything going to change now that we've cut the heads

584
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:30,240
Speaker 11: off the snakes of these cartels, and the reporter down there,

585
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:33,480
Speaker 11: Aeronie Barrow, told me not until you start arresting the politicians.

586
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:35,640
Speaker 11: And you look at America and it's the exact same thing.

587
00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:38,880
Speaker 11: The same politicians that are aiding and a betting illegals

588
00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:42,880
Speaker 11: in their own community, whether that's in Minneapolis, Minnesota, or Chicago, Illinois,

589
00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:46,560
Speaker 11: or Portland, Oregon, or Salem, Oregon, or Los Angeles. These

590
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:49,000
Speaker 11: politicians that are aiding to betting the cartels, you can

591
00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 11: guarantee there's money coming from the cartels, either directly or

592
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 11: indirectly to them until they are prosecuted.

593
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:56,760
Speaker 5: We're going to continue.

594
00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:58,800
Speaker 11: We're in the midst of a civil war in this

595
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:02,760
Speaker 11: nation depend to determine the direction that this country goes.

596
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:05,320
Speaker 11: Either would be a nation of laws, the rule of law,

597
00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:07,760
Speaker 11: will have secure borders, or if the left wins, will

598
00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:10,800
Speaker 11: be a communist nation where the cartels, the Jihadis, and

599
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:13,280
Speaker 11: the communists run this nation.

600
00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:15,000
Speaker 3: And that's my fear, that's.

601
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:15,640
Speaker 5: What we're up against.

602
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:16,960
Speaker 3: That's why this year that.

603
00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:21,520
Speaker 2: Adds a big fear is so critical. Totally agree with

604
00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:22,000
Speaker 2: you on that. Look.

605
00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:23,320
Speaker 1: I used to spend a fair amount of time in

606
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:27,880
Speaker 1: Mexico working and filming back before this became such a scourge.

607
00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:30,400
Speaker 2: It was corrupt then, it is corrupt now.

608
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:33,440
Speaker 1: Politicians get papered with money by the cartels because they

609
00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:35,560
Speaker 1: have a lot of it, thanks in part, in large

610
00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:38,320
Speaker 1: part of the Biden administration. But we have to continue

611
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:40,440
Speaker 1: to keep the pressure on. In twenty twenty six, last

612
00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:40,960
Speaker 1: word to you.

613
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:45,440
Speaker 11: Ben, Yeah, the elections, the midterm elections of twenty twenty

614
00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:47,320
Speaker 11: six are the life or death of this nation. We

615
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,600
Speaker 11: say it all the time. These elections are the most important.

616
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 11: Every election from here on out is the most important.

617
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:56,720
Speaker 11: Until we actually pass laws make these executive orders permanent,

618
00:31:57,040 --> 00:31:58,080
Speaker 11: we are not out of danger.

619
00:31:58,120 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 4: And until we.

620
00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:01,760
Speaker 11: Prosecute the enemies within this nation. We are in grave

621
00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:03,880
Speaker 11: danger as a nation, and that's my prayer for twenty

622
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:06,920
Speaker 11: twenty six. We expose the left, we unite as the right,

623
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:09,040
Speaker 11: and we come together and say we're going to secure

624
00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,120
Speaker 11: this nation, and we start that process.

625
00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:14,880
Speaker 1: Ben bur Kwam always on the front lines out there. Ben,

626
00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:17,280
Speaker 1: Thank you so much for being here today. You can

627
00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:20,800
Speaker 1: always catch Ben on the weekends. Law and Border. Happy

628
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:22,800
Speaker 1: New Year to you, my friend, Law and Border with

629
00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:25,160
Speaker 1: Ben berg Kwam right here on Real America's Voice. Don't

630
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:27,080
Speaker 1: ever miss an episode. You'd be glad you saw it.

631
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:28,440
Speaker 1: All right, We're going to take a break here on

632
00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 1: the program. A Happy New Year to you again. We'll

633
00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:32,760
Speaker 1: have more after the break.

634
00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:42,440
Speaker 12: Well.

635
00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:44,080
Speaker 2: Twenty twenty five saw a.

636
00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:49,240
Speaker 1: Faith rising in America, unsurprising, more people probably proclaiming their faith,

637
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:51,160
Speaker 1: especially in the wake of the death of Charlie Kirk.

638
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:53,960
Speaker 1: Whether one turns to faith because of the philosophy found

639
00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 1: in the scriptures or because they genuinely had a moment

640
00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:59,880
Speaker 1: with God. Faith is on the rise in America. So

641
00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:03,800
Speaker 1: why is faith making a comeback and will these instances continue?

642
00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 2: Join me to discuss this. The CEO and President of

643
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 2: Coral Ridge Ministries. Pastor Rob Pacienza, Pastor, thank you for

644
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:10,800
Speaker 2: being here.

645
00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:12,520
Speaker 4: Today, thanks for having me on.

646
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 1: Clearly, Charlie Kirk's death back on September the tenth of

647
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:21,480
Speaker 1: last year was a seminal moment for a lot of reasons.

648
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:23,560
Speaker 2: But we've seen faith on the rise.

649
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:27,800
Speaker 1: Attendance at church fifteen percent up, the sale of Bibles up,

650
00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:31,440
Speaker 1: the sale of apps that have Christianity and so forth up.

651
00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:35,440
Speaker 2: What's driving this push towards faith and the word.

652
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:42,640
Speaker 12: I think finally Americans have been attentive to what's happening,

653
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:45,800
Speaker 12: not only in media, but what is happening in Washington,

654
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 12: d C.

655
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:47,640
Speaker 4: I think they're seeing the.

656
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:51,680
Speaker 12: Divisiveness all throughout our nation, and I think they're waking

657
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:55,360
Speaker 12: up to the bankruptcy of secularism, the lie that we

658
00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:57,800
Speaker 12: have been fed for the last sixty years in this nation,

659
00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:00,360
Speaker 12: that we would be better off without odd in the

660
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:03,560
Speaker 12: public square, we would be better off without religion, that

661
00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 12: we're too sophisticated of a society to deal with matters

662
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:10,640
Speaker 12: of faith and its influence in public life. And I

663
00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:14,200
Speaker 12: think we're realizing that's a lie. It is a lie,

664
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:18,000
Speaker 12: and we realize that our hope in faith and our

665
00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:21,360
Speaker 12: hope in Jesus Christ is our only hope for America.

666
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:23,839
Speaker 12: We need revival in this nation once again.

667
00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:27,880
Speaker 1: So what you're saying here is, after all this blizzard

668
00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:31,240
Speaker 1: of nonsense we get on social media and other places,

669
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:35,200
Speaker 1: whether it's you know, Netflix or social media, whatever, America

670
00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:36,080
Speaker 1: is looking for truth.

671
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:37,799
Speaker 2: That's what you're telling.

672
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:38,000
Speaker 4: Me, right.

673
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:42,400
Speaker 12: Absolutely, they're looking for absolute truth. They're looking to the

674
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:45,160
Speaker 12: truth that our founders look to two hundred and fifty

675
00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:49,560
Speaker 12: years ago. That they're looking to those unalienable rights. That

676
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:52,879
Speaker 12: rights come not from the state, they do not come

677
00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:56,400
Speaker 12: from the government, but they come from Almighty God. That

678
00:34:56,440 --> 00:35:00,319
Speaker 12: there has to be something beyond this material world, has

679
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:03,200
Speaker 12: to be a true truth. And that's the truth that

680
00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:07,000
Speaker 12: captured Charlie Kirk's heart. That's the truth that captured so

681
00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:11,240
Speaker 12: many that went before us that made this nation great.

682
00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:14,360
Speaker 12: They understood that the greatness was not in Washington, d c.

683
00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:17,480
Speaker 12: But it was in the church houses and in the

684
00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:22,160
Speaker 12: heartland of America, and ultimately found in faith in God.

685
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:25,520
Speaker 12: Not a society divorced from God, but a society that

686
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:29,960
Speaker 12: understands that we do not flourish apart from the hand

687
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:31,000
Speaker 12: of an almighty God.

688
00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:33,120
Speaker 2: Pastor.

689
00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:36,080
Speaker 1: My understanding when I read the Bible, which I do daily,

690
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:40,600
Speaker 1: is it sin a sin? I mean, you can't differentiate.

691
00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:41,239
Speaker 1: Sin is sin?

692
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:41,640
Speaker 2: Correct?

693
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:46,319
Speaker 1: You agree with that absolutely? And I asked for this

694
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:48,799
Speaker 1: reason in DC just a week or two ago, and

695
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 1: I was there most recently big cathedral there. I couldn't

696
00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:54,240
Speaker 1: tell you which one it is. It's got pride flags

697
00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:58,040
Speaker 1: painted on the steps all the way up to the church.

698
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,440
Speaker 1: I mean, would you a drunkard out front, or an

699
00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:03,400
Speaker 1: adulterer or a murderer?

700
00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:05,160
Speaker 2: I mean, sin is sin to me?

701
00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:09,640
Speaker 1: Right, I don't differentiate in my understanding of the words.

702
00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:11,719
Speaker 1: So why would you put pride flags in the front

703
00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:12,320
Speaker 1: of churches?

704
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:16,520
Speaker 12: Unfortunately, because this is more than a movement. It's become

705
00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:19,160
Speaker 12: the new religion in America. It's become the new religion

706
00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:26,480
Speaker 12: throughout the West. The LGBTQ movement. Radical gender ideology is

707
00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:30,040
Speaker 12: way more than just a viewpoint, way more than just

708
00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:33,960
Speaker 12: a set set of beliefs. It truly is a religion

709
00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:37,600
Speaker 12: that has captured the minds and hearts of so many

710
00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:41,399
Speaker 12: Americans and in particular the next generation. And so when

711
00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:44,879
Speaker 12: you begin to see it embraced by even the great

712
00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:48,000
Speaker 12: cathedrals of our nation that were at one point preaching

713
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:51,279
Speaker 12: the gospel. Now we see them preaching another gospel. We

714
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:55,080
Speaker 12: see them preaching another truth. We see the redefinition of sin.

715
00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:58,920
Speaker 12: I think of that prophecy in Isaiah. Woe to those

716
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,880
Speaker 12: that call good evil and evil good. We are seeing

717
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:03,760
Speaker 12: it all over America today.

718
00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:07,680
Speaker 1: What strikes me is heresy. Now, let me take that

719
00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:11,320
Speaker 1: a step further. If if the pastors in those churches,

720
00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:14,600
Speaker 1: and Lord we've seen it, are going to preach politics

721
00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:18,600
Speaker 1: from the pulpit, isn't it time for pastors that are

722
00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:23,240
Speaker 1: based in the word, Bible based churches in twenty twenty

723
00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:25,480
Speaker 1: six now here we go into midterm elections are as

724
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:28,040
Speaker 1: critical as anything about the future, not just about the

725
00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:31,880
Speaker 1: price of gasoline, but about the culture itself. Isn't it

726
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:34,640
Speaker 1: time my church does this. They're not shy. They stand

727
00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:37,440
Speaker 1: up and say, here's what's right, here's what's wrong, and

728
00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:39,000
Speaker 1: here's what we're telling you you need to do to

729
00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:40,960
Speaker 1: save this country. Is it time for people to become

730
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:45,400
Speaker 1: more aggressive in the pulpit talking about real truth, biblical truth,

731
00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:47,759
Speaker 1: and talking about the future of this country and that

732
00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:49,840
Speaker 1: when you see heresy or you bring me in people

733
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:53,319
Speaker 1: to this country that are not compatible even with the constitution.

734
00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:58,280
Speaker 2: Is it time to speak up from the pulpit, sir, It's.

735
00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:01,120
Speaker 12: Time to speak up if we truly want revive. Any

736
00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:05,920
Speaker 12: of the great revivals throughout history included two things, the

737
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:08,399
Speaker 12: preaching of biblical truth and how it applied to what

738
00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:11,239
Speaker 12: was happening in the culture, and calling out of sin,

739
00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:13,799
Speaker 12: calling a nation or a society to repentance.

740
00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:15,160
Speaker 4: So, if we.

741
00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:18,759
Speaker 12: Long for revival, if we long for the nation being

742
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:22,279
Speaker 12: that sitting on a hill once again, it will not

743
00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:26,359
Speaker 12: happen unless we are applying truth from the pulpit and

744
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:29,680
Speaker 12: calling out sin and calling our nation to repentance.

745
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:33,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, there've been a couple of great revivals in America,

746
00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:37,240
Speaker 1: a couple. I don't know if this is a revival, pastor,

747
00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:39,759
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's not for me to define. But

748
00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:43,399
Speaker 1: there certainly is a calling. There certainly is a momentum

749
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:46,040
Speaker 1: happening of people returning to church. Like I set up

750
00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:48,120
Speaker 1: fifteen percent, the sale of Bible is the best selling

751
00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:51,160
Speaker 1: book in the history of the world, selling hot again.

752
00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:55,120
Speaker 2: I don't know what to call it, but I call

753
00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:57,560
Speaker 2: it a good thing. Your thoughts on this, Yeah, I.

754
00:38:57,560 --> 00:38:58,480
Speaker 4: Think you're absolutely right.

755
00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:02,200
Speaker 12: I think we do have to be cautious to label

756
00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:06,840
Speaker 12: this current movement, this current excitement for the things of God,

757
00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:11,680
Speaker 12: a revival. A revival is long lasting. A revival eventually

758
00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:15,520
Speaker 12: leads to reformation. When I think of the Reformation in

759
00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:18,479
Speaker 12: the sixteenth century and how that turned the world upside down.

760
00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:21,360
Speaker 12: When I think of the Great Awakening in the seventeen

761
00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:23,600
Speaker 12: thirties and forties and how that led to a new

762
00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:26,520
Speaker 12: birth of freedom in this nation, you can clearly call

763
00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:29,160
Speaker 12: them revivals. I think time will tell if this is

764
00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:31,840
Speaker 12: a true revival or not. I think the question is

765
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:34,960
Speaker 12: will the Church continue to seize the moment, as I

766
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:38,440
Speaker 12: said before, preaching biblical truth, preaching the whole Council of God,

767
00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:41,440
Speaker 12: and helping their people understand how it applies to every

768
00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:45,880
Speaker 12: area of life, including politics and government. Will we be

769
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:49,719
Speaker 12: in a state of repentance for our past apathy and

770
00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:52,360
Speaker 12: our past sin as a nation. Time will tell, but

771
00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:55,040
Speaker 12: those are the true ingredients for revival. But I think

772
00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:59,320
Speaker 12: it's too early to label this current movement a revival.

773
00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:01,320
Speaker 4: I sure hope it, but time will tell.

774
00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:05,640
Speaker 1: I sure hope it is too. But again I agree

775
00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:07,560
Speaker 1: with exactly what you said. I'm glad you laid it

776
00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:11,640
Speaker 1: out the way you did. My last thing will simply

777
00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:15,400
Speaker 1: be this, Beware of the false prophets. They are truly

778
00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:18,839
Speaker 1: wolves in sheep's clothing. Sir, thank you for being here today.

779
00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:20,120
Speaker 1: It's a great way to start with you. I really

780
00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:22,000
Speaker 1: appreciate it. It's been a great conversation.

781
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:25,440
Speaker 4: Thank you, Thank you.

782
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:28,680
Speaker 2: You have a pastor, Rob Pacienza. There it is.

783
00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:31,120
Speaker 1: Folks is a revival. I don't know, but it's a

784
00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:33,319
Speaker 1: good thing. You can call it whatever you want. It's

785
00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:36,319
Speaker 1: a good thing. Go to church on Sunday, make a

786
00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:39,080
Speaker 1: difference in your community, take a break and be right back.

787
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:51,440
Speaker 1: Remember God bless America.

788
00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:55,880
Speaker 3: All right?

789
00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:58,360
Speaker 1: What makes America wonderful? We do it every day with

790
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:00,040
Speaker 1: the hope of putting a smile on your face. I

791
00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:01,840
Speaker 1: don't want to change that for twenty twenty six. We

792
00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:04,480
Speaker 1: want to roll right into the new year making you smile.

793
00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:07,520
Speaker 1: Today's story comes to us from mac and Georgia, where

794
00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:08,239
Speaker 1: a simple act of.

795
00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:10,360
Speaker 2: Kindness turned into an unexpected friendship.

796
00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:13,759
Speaker 1: Keith Tidwell and Debbie Roaden first encountered each other at

797
00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:17,040
Speaker 1: a Kroger grocery store last January, where Tidwell worked the

798
00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:19,960
Speaker 1: night shift in the produce section, and for a long time,

799
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:22,839
Speaker 1: Tidwell and Rodin had not spoken a word to each other.

800
00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:26,200
Speaker 1: That all changed when Debbie Roaden spotted Keith walking along

801
00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:29,520
Speaker 1: Gray Highway during her commute, a long stretch of asphalts

802
00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:32,759
Speaker 1: surrounded by wooded areas, making Debbie's offer to give the

803
00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:36,480
Speaker 1: young man a ride even more impactful. When recounting on

804
00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:39,040
Speaker 1: what drove the decision to offer Keith a ride, Debbie

805
00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:42,239
Speaker 1: noted that her late son Carlos would have done the

806
00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:46,320
Speaker 1: same and she was just passing on his morals. After

807
00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:48,680
Speaker 1: that day, the carpool has become a routine, and even

808
00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:51,640
Speaker 1: though Keith Tidwell is working on getting his driver's license,

809
00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:55,560
Speaker 1: he plans to keep in touch to prolong this newfound friendship.

810
00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:58,160
Speaker 1: Take you a chance on somebody can offer me a

811
00:41:58,280 --> 00:42:01,640
Speaker 1: challenge for most people, but today's story showcases fighting genuine

812
00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:05,919
Speaker 1: connection even in the most unlikely circumstances, which reminds us,

813
00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:10,160
Speaker 1: which reminds us what makes America wonderful.

814
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:13,040
Speaker 2: All right, here's your question of today.

815
00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:16,480
Speaker 1: What would you like to see President Trump accomplish in

816
00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:17,880
Speaker 1: twenty twenty six?

817
00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:19,560
Speaker 2: Cheryl three forty one.

818
00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:21,879
Speaker 1: I want to see in very early twenty twenty six,

819
00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:24,840
Speaker 1: President Trump and Congress pass and signed legislation that protects

820
00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:28,879
Speaker 1: our elections from both foreign and domestic fraud and interference.

821
00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:34,560
Speaker 1: What a great post, What a great response, Sea Boom.

822
00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:39,640
Speaker 1: His executive orders codified musks, doge fightings of corruption, fraud, abuse,

823
00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:45,080
Speaker 1: fixed known corrupt politicians and accomplices, prosecuted, activist judges removed

824
00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:48,600
Speaker 1: and banned from legal profession, and prosecuted where appropriate. All

825
00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:54,959
Speaker 1: pretty decent list. Saldour writes. Fifteen million illegals deported, voter

826
00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:59,640
Speaker 1: rolls cleaned, illegal is not allowed to vote, cut off

827
00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:02,200
Speaker 1: for Blue states until they obey the law in the constitution,

828
00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:06,360
Speaker 1: Deep state criminals brought to trial, pedophiles brought to justice

829
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:12,640
Speaker 1: and as a final note, DEI outlawed. Daniel Emmett has

830
00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:16,640
Speaker 1: this stop sending money to Ukraine, Sam Foles. The third

831
00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:19,360
Speaker 1: eliminate taxes on social security for seniors. A lot of

832
00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:21,640
Speaker 1: folks would agree with you on that. Sam. Get rid

833
00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:23,919
Speaker 1: of property tax too. It'd be a nice step forward

834
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:27,520
Speaker 1: for seniors living on a fixed income. Janet Nicholson remove

835
00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:30,640
Speaker 1: all the illegals and green card holders, visa holders who

836
00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:34,839
Speaker 1: riot and hate America and those who chant death to America. Yes,

837
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:36,600
Speaker 1: those are all very good ideas.

838
00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:37,120
Speaker 2: Here we are.

839
00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:42,240
Speaker 1: We've got, like the clean whiteboard, it's a blank slate.

840
00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:46,879
Speaker 1: What do you want for twenty twenty six? I want

841
00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:50,160
Speaker 1: to see America first. I want to see President Trump

842
00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:53,640
Speaker 1: continue to put America first. I want the war with

843
00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:56,200
Speaker 1: rushing Ukraine to come to an end as soon as possible.

844
00:43:56,640 --> 00:43:58,960
Speaker 1: I want the economy to keep humming along out gas

845
00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:02,040
Speaker 1: to be cheaper than two dollars a gallon, I do.

846
00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:05,440
Speaker 1: I want to see free, fair and honest elections.

847
00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:05,839
Speaker 2: I do.

848
00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:09,680
Speaker 1: We've got work to do, my friends. And the midterms, oh,

849
00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:13,719
Speaker 1: the midterms more critical than ever. Potentially, you have got

850
00:44:13,719 --> 00:44:15,840
Speaker 1: to vote. You do not want Donald Trump to be

851
00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:19,800
Speaker 1: a lame duck now or ever. Get out and vote.

852
00:44:19,880 --> 00:44:23,200
Speaker 1: Support America first. That's my wish for twenty twenty six.

853
00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:25,640
Speaker 1: Happy New Year, my friends, and for all of us

854
00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:28,080
Speaker 1: here in real America's voice. We appreciate you starting the

855
00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:31,799
Speaker 1: brand new year right here. We'll see you soon.
