1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,400 Speaker 1: Easter is the holiest day on the Christian calendar. It's 2 00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:07,520 Speaker 1: the day that a billion Christians around the world celebrate 3 00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:12,680 Speaker 1: the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead from his crucifixion, 4 00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:17,040 Speaker 1: which is marked by celebrations of Good Friday. A few 5 00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:21,320 Speaker 1: days earlier. The day in the United States was proclaimed 6 00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:26,320 Speaker 1: by religious messages from the Secretary of State Marco Rubia. 7 00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:30,760 Speaker 1: He has risen, and so says Pete Hexa, the self 8 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:35,480 Speaker 1: proclaimed Secretary of War, better known in the Pentagon as 9 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:41,640 Speaker 1: the Secretary of War Crimes. He is risen. Their leader, 10 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,320 Speaker 1: Donald Trump, had an Easter message. 11 00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:48,600 Speaker 2: This Eastern Millions of Christians all over the globe will 12 00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:52,400 Speaker 2: be reminded that because of what Jesus did on the cross, 13 00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,120 Speaker 2: all of us can live every day with hope in 14 00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:59,640 Speaker 2: God's promise, knowing that in the end evil and wickedness 15 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:03,959 Speaker 2: will not prevail. In this spirit of joy and renewal, 16 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:08,679 Speaker 2: this Easter, we also celebrate the extraordinary resurrection of faith 17 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,720 Speaker 2: and religion in America, because I have often said, to 18 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,959 Speaker 2: be a great nation, you must have religion and you 19 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 2: must have God. In churches across the nation on Sunday, 20 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 2: that pews will be fuller younger and more faithful than 21 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 2: they have at any time in many, many years. 22 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 1: It is Monday, April sixth. I'm Steve Schmidt, and remember 23 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 1: if you sign up for our members only content on YouTube, 24 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: you'll be able to participate in our next members only session. 25 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:45,679 Speaker 1: This is the warning. How should we think about religious 26 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 1: fanaticism religious notttery, the type that led to the Salem 27 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:55,720 Speaker 1: witch trials, but has been updated for the twenty first century. 28 00:01:55,960 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 1: Here is Pastor Paula, the White House Faith Advisor with 29 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:04,640 Speaker 1: the President's daughter in law on Fox News. Think about 30 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 1: the spectacle of the corruption here and it is incredible 31 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:13,519 Speaker 1: to listen to the words Donald Trump, yay, that man 32 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 1: of faith. From the earliest days Donald's went to church. 33 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 1: Here's Pastor Paula. 34 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 3: Oh, Laura, as you said, this is probably my favorite 35 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 3: subject to talk about. First off, to give honor to 36 00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 3: God and to President Trump for being bold and unwavering 37 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 3: with this faith. Many people don't know like you do. 38 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 3: And say hello to Eric and everyone in the family. 39 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 3: About the upbringing of President Trump that he went to 40 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:42,640 Speaker 3: sometimes three times a week, two he said, it depended 41 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 3: on the teacher. To Saturday school, Sunday school church. It 42 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,920 Speaker 3: was at Norman Vincent Pills Church was a big part 43 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 3: of his life, of course. 44 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:56,359 Speaker 1: And here's Pastor Paula speaking in talks for Angels. 45 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,919 Speaker 3: Are being released right now. Angels are being dispatched right now. 46 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 3: Hamanda Atta Sandaatata, Rita Eta Ricahata. 47 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 1: Again. One of the greatest grifters there has ever been. 48 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 1: Here's Pete Hegseth's pastor. 49 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 4: I pray that God kills him ultimately. That means killing 50 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 4: his heart and raising him up to new life in Christ. 51 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 3: That's the first thing. 52 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:25,959 Speaker 1: We want him crucified with Christ. 53 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 4: That's exactly why him to be. I think that's Aul 54 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,919 Speaker 4: of Tarsu's tall Rico of Tarsus. 55 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 1: He thinks slavery was a good thing and that women, well, 56 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 1: they shouldn't vote. And he seems certain of the matter 57 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 1: and unwilling to compromise because God wants it that way. 58 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: And the thing with religious fanatics who seek political power 59 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 1: claiming a godly mission, were they alone or able to 60 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: interpret God's will, which always sanctifies their politics, no matter 61 00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 1: how extreme. It's very dangerous. And everywhere people take political 62 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 1: power professing to be God's agents His angels on earth. 63 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: They carry names in Iran like Ayatola Taliban in Afghanistan, 64 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 1: and here in America we have plenty of American Taliban. 65 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 1: We have plenty of American Ayatolas in waiting. Think about this, 66 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 1: the total disgrace of it. On Easter Sunday, these people 67 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:32,160 Speaker 1: talk about Jesus Christ and they talk about his message, 68 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 1: but they forget Matthew five, They forget the Sermon on 69 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:39,479 Speaker 1: the Mountain. They forget that his message was aimed at 70 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 1: the poor and it was a message of peace. Which 71 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 1: is why, over and over again Donald Trump is rebuked, 72 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 1: for example, by the most important American in the world, 73 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:57,280 Speaker 1: Pope Leo. What we saw on Easter Sunday was a disgrace. 74 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 1: It was blasphemous. Rubio, with his signature, is responsible for 75 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 1: the deaths over four years time, of millions of people 76 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: around the world who will choke to death on the 77 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:18,039 Speaker 1: dust on their hunger, dying miserable deaths because blithely Marco 78 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 1: Rubio cut off the American Aid so he could have 79 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: power with the pedophile protector Donald Trump. Think about a 80 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 1: Christian pastor so called, going on television to celebrate the 81 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 1: godliness of a convicted felon, a man who's been adjudicated 82 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 1: as a rapist, a brutal man, a criminal, a cruel 83 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:49,280 Speaker 1: man filled with malice, Who's incited violence, who's committed war crimes? 84 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 1: Who is a racist? Who is the ugliest president the 85 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 1: nation has ever had? Imagine doing that in calling it 86 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 1: Christ's message. Every one of these people, from top to bottom, 87 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 1: is a fraud and a grifter, a fanatic, and an extremist, 88 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:08,919 Speaker 1: all of them. Here. 89 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,800 Speaker 4: Good afternoon, everyone, Could you hear our amen? 90 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:14,159 Speaker 3: In there? 91 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 4: We just said a little loud prayer as a team. 92 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 3: In this holy week, President Trump and the First Lady 93 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 3: are joining in prayer with Christians celebrating the resurrection of 94 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 3: our Lord and Savior at Jesus Christ. 95 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:26,600 Speaker 2: And here. 96 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 5: Our great Republic was founded on a simple yet bold idea. 97 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 5: Our rights as citizens are not granted to us by government, 98 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 5: but instead by God. 99 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:44,279 Speaker 1: When you marry politics and power and faith all together 100 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: and call it the same, it's a cyanide for the society, 101 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 1: for the family, for the individual. It's deadly, it's evil, 102 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 1: and it is alive and well. In the United States. 103 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:02,680 Speaker 1: What happened on Easter so in America. The insanity of 104 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 1: it all, this this and this shouldn't be laughed at, 105 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 1: shouldn't be disregarded. Many years ago, Donald Trump was asked 106 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 1: a question and it ranks up there through this day 107 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 1: as one of the greatest Trump answers of all time. 108 00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: Back then, it left your slack jaw. Today it leaves 109 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 1: you weary. 110 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 4: You mentioned the Bible. You've been talking about how it's 111 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 4: your favorite book, and you said, I think last night 112 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 4: in Iowa, some people are surprised that you say that. 113 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 4: I'm wondering what one or two of your most favorite 114 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 4: Bible verses are. 115 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 2: I wouldn't want to get into it, because to me, 116 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 2: that's very personal. 117 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 1: You don't when I talk about the Bible. 118 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 2: It's very personal. So I don't want to get into this. 119 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 1: I don't want to get into. 120 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 4: It means to you that you think about her sight. 121 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 2: The Bible means a lot to me, but I don't 122 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 2: want to get into specifics. 123 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 1: Once it was said that there was a difference when 124 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:57,680 Speaker 1: it came to hearing Trump, should you take him literally 125 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 1: or seriously, as if you should do both with the 126 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: words of the President of the United States. Well, today, 127 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 1: on this Easter Monday, everybody should take Trump literally and 128 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 1: seriously when he says this with no plan whatsoever, but 129 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 1: in the meantime we should remember this, to celebrate the 130 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: glorious hollowness of it all, the fakery, the fraudulents, the 131 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 1: grift and Pastor Paula.
