1 00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:11,520 Speaker 1: Apparently there was still COVID money going out. Thankfully, it 2 00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:14,560 Speaker 1: looks like there's going to be a stop put to that. Also, 3 00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:18,480 Speaker 1: President Trump yesterday said something that was correct, but also 4 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:22,480 Speaker 1: probably not something that any other president has ever said. 5 00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:24,880 Speaker 1: All that more coming up on this episode of Turning 6 00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:26,800 Speaker 1: Points Tonight. My name is Jobob and together we are 7 00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:29,480 Speaker 1: charting the course of America's cultural comeback. Thanks so much 8 00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:32,199 Speaker 1: for tuning in. This is Turning Points Tonight.

You can email us whether you agree 11 00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:40,960 Speaker 1: or whether you're wrong, and if it's horrible and nasty, 12 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:42,800 Speaker 1: there's a chance that we might read it later on 13 00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:45,280 Speaker 1: in the show. Now, before we get to any of 14 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:48,640 Speaker 1: those really interesting stories I think we're going to talk about, 15 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:50,600 Speaker 1: we need to talk about something that I don't think 16 00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 1: any other cable news show is talking about, and that 17 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 1: of course is ninjas. Of course, we need to outline 18 00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 1: what is going on in the UK. Believe it or not, 19 00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 1: this is a real tweet or ex post that was 20 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 1: sent out by the UK Prime Minister in regards to 21 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 1: the speculation that the UK is going to ban ninja swords. 22 00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 1: I wish I were making this up. The UK Prime 23 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 1: Minister Kure Starmer tweeted this confirmed ninja swords will be 24 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 1: banned by this summer. 25 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:22,840 Speaker 2: Now. 26 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 1: As ridiculous as that might sound, my question to our 27 00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 1: friends across the pond is why stop at ninja swords? 28 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 1: You know, if you know anything about ninjas, they are shifty, 29 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: they are disciplined, they are lethal, and most of all, 30 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,480 Speaker 1: they are sneaky. What if they sneak into your country? 31 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,959 Speaker 1: My recommendation to those folks in the UK is one, 32 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 1: probably gets some braces, and two maybe also consider banning 33 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 1: ninjas on mass And again, why stop at just ninjas? 34 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 1: Maybe we should also ban or consider banning their cohorts 35 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 1: the turtle. Who knows what dangers might lurk in those 36 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 1: ninja turtles? And of course banning the ninja turtle won't 37 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 1: actually do anything unless you also ban the rats. You know, 38 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:13,639 Speaker 1: what dangers are sneaking underneath the sewers of London? You know, 39 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 1: as a matter of fact, UK, you might want to 40 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 1: consider banning all ninja related things, stars, legos pirates, anything 41 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:25,239 Speaker 1: that has to do with ninjas you should consider banning. 42 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 1: Because if you're gonna ban ninja swords go all the way. 43 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 1: I wish this story was a joke, but it is not. 44 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 1: And here to discuss that and so much more is 45 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 1: our awesome panel host of speechless Kevin Ferris and comedian 46 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:41,360 Speaker 1: friend Bo Robertson. Guys, thanks so much for joining us. 47 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:42,799 Speaker 1: Really appreciate you taking the time. 48 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,360 Speaker 3: Thank you so much for having us chopin, Bo, I want. 49 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 2: To start with you here. 50 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 1: We make fun of the whole ninja thing, but at 51 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 1: the same time, this is this is real, this is 52 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,520 Speaker 1: actually happening. The Prime Minister said, hey, we're gonna ban 53 00:02:55,000 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 1: ninja swords because of escalating violence in knife attack around 54 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 1: the UK. What it really ends up being is that, well, 55 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 1: countries don't recognize that. 56 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 2: It's not the weapon, it's the culture. 57 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,800 Speaker 1: And at some point you're just gonna ban anything that 58 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 1: anybody uses as a weapon. 59 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,919 Speaker 2: What are your thoughts on this, in my opinion, ridiculous ban. 60 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 4: Well, this is the problem when you have tons of 61 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 4: Samurais coming into the country, right, Samurais don't like ninjas, 62 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 4: so they have to ban them, get them out of 63 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 4: the countries so they can you know, assume parts of 64 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,839 Speaker 4: government that can control the nation. 65 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 2: Right, And it's like what's next? You got swords? Stars? 66 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 2: What about forks and spoons? What about my bare hands? 67 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 2: Gonna ban these suckers? These can do some damage. 68 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 4: So yeah, you know, maybe that's why the samurai are better. 69 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 4: They don't need weapons. They do it all with their 70 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,119 Speaker 4: bare hands, and that's why they're getting ahead in the UK. 71 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 1: You know, uh Bo, you might have picked up on 72 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: something is banning ninja swords and other ninja related things racist? 73 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 1: By any chance, that question will will linger out there, 74 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 1: Kevin Hart. So the obvious question is, well, what constitutes 75 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 1: as a ninja sword, as the Prime Minister said, will 76 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 1: be banned. Well, it has to be a blade length 77 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:17,360 Speaker 1: between fourteen inches and twenty four inches, with a range 78 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,479 Speaker 1: that excludes shorter blades. The blade shape, it must be 79 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 1: a straight blade. Any curvature in the blade would then 80 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,719 Speaker 1: constitute it as a ninja sword. And also the design 81 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 1: of the tip really indicates whether or not a given 82 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:37,280 Speaker 1: sword is in fact a ninja sword. Again, all of 83 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:39,920 Speaker 1: this is ridiculous, But at what point do you think 84 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 1: the Brits are going to figure out that? You know, 85 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: that's not why the Americans have the Second Amendments to 86 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 1: protect people on the streets or protect themselves on the streets. 87 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 1: It's to fight the government from banning things like ninja's hordes. 88 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 3: Absolutely, I absolutely, Joe Bob. I mean, I think the 89 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 3: thing is that you see with Keir Starmer here is 90 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 3: that he's really worried about the length of the blade 91 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:07,599 Speaker 3: because he knows that three blades or three inches of 92 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 3: a blade, it's just perfectly is the perfect amount. But 93 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,640 Speaker 3: fourteen who really needs fourteen inches? 94 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:13,160 Speaker 5: Am I right? 95 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 3: That's that's where he's really going with this. But in 96 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 3: all seriousness, what we're looking at is the fact that 97 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 3: they ban guns, then they call then, but that doesn't 98 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,040 Speaker 3: stop crime, that doesn't stop violence, that doesn't stop people 99 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 3: wanting to do bad things for whatever the reason may 100 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,680 Speaker 3: be with a ninja sword. And so just from down there, 101 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:34,360 Speaker 3: like you mentioned, is the mainstream media in America will 102 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,720 Speaker 3: not cover this because they know that that's exactly what 103 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,159 Speaker 3: happens is when you ban guns, they cut they then 104 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 3: people start doing crime with knives. And then, as Bo 105 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 3: had said, if you ban the knives, you've ban the 106 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 3: ninja swords, then it'll be the fists. And that's what 107 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:51,280 Speaker 3: we're seeing here is people who want to hurt others 108 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 3: are going to hurt others no matter the weapon of choice. 109 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think it needs to be abundantly clear. 110 00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:01,039 Speaker 1: This is not at all condoning violence, saying hey, you know, 111 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,039 Speaker 1: there's better ways to curb it, and a lot of 112 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:06,239 Speaker 1: those have to do culturally. This was from a UK outlet. 113 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 1: Deadly Ninja Swords to be banned through the UK from 114 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,720 Speaker 1: August first, so they have until August first to get 115 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:16,160 Speaker 1: rid of their ninja swords. A surrender scheme will run 116 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,719 Speaker 1: from the first to the thirty first of July, allowing 117 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 1: weapons to be surrendered anonymously nationwide. Failure to surrender knives 118 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 1: slash ninja swords could see offenders facing jail time, So 119 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 1: putting you in jail for having a sword that is 120 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 1: too long. Speaking of things that are ridiculous, this is true, 121 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 1: but still I think because of how crazy things are 122 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 1: in the modern woke world, it doesn't seem as ridiculous 123 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 1: as it actually is. I'm gonna play this clip from 124 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,600 Speaker 1: President Trump talking yesterday, and I want you to frame 125 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:53,600 Speaker 1: this in the mindset of showing this video to I 126 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 1: don't know, Teddy Roosevelt or Dwight Eisenhower and imagining the 127 00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 1: look on their face. Again, nothing the President's that Trump 128 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:04,280 Speaker 1: says is wrong, but it still is nuts that a 129 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,719 Speaker 1: president is having to say this, given how obvious it 130 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 1: is to watch this clip. 131 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 6: No matter how many surgeries you have or chemicals you inject, 132 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 6: if you're born with male DNA and every shell if 133 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 6: your body, you can never become a woman. 134 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 5: You're not going to be a woman. 135 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 6: And that's why last month I proudly signed a historic 136 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:31,800 Speaker 6: executive order to ban men from competing in women's sports. 137 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 2: And it was very popular and. 138 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 1: Very Nothing he said there was wrong, all accurate, all 139 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 1: entirely necessary. But it's still crazy that we're in a 140 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: world where the President of the United States is saying, Hey, 141 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 1: if you're a woman, you're a woman, and if you're 142 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: a man, you're a man. 143 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 2: Bo your thoughts. 144 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 4: You know, it's crazy that we're talking about this in 145 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 4: twenty twenty five. If we get to the more important 146 00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 4: stuff that matter, it would really benefit us. Ninja swords, 147 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 4: you know, why are those in our country? Why aren't 148 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 4: we banning those all the time? But instead we're talking 149 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 4: about these It's really frustrating that in twenty twenty five 150 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 4: we're resorting to conversations about men and women, which most 151 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 4: people can go out to the street and can clearly 152 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 4: see the difference. But there's obviously a special group that 153 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 4: prioritizes their body parts more than others, and they think 154 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 4: that they have the ability to dress and be whoever 155 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 4: they want, even though biologically speaking, they can never be 156 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 4: a woman. 157 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:32,559 Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, it is nuts again. 158 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 2: Did what you just say? Hey, hey there, hey there. 159 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 4: Hey, we do not use gender preferred pronouns here. 160 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,600 Speaker 1: That's funny. I got I gotta catch myself. It is crazy. 161 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 4: Let's just say that, No, I prefer the nuts and 162 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 4: so do these transmit No, I don't know. 163 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 1: Jeez, Kevin. Let's try to avoid getting kicked off the 164 00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 1: air here. But let's see so so, Kevin. The Trump 165 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 1: administration has made this a big point, mostly because the 166 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,440 Speaker 1: American people this is not like a like down the 167 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:13,559 Speaker 1: middle bipartisan issue in terms of both sides arguing equally. 168 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 2: This is like an eighty twenty issue. 169 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:17,960 Speaker 1: If that there's some numbers that suggests it's like a 170 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 1: ninety ten issue. In other words, nine out of ten 171 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:22,520 Speaker 1: Americans are like, yeah, this is this is all a 172 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 1: good idea. 173 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:25,200 Speaker 2: How do we get out of. 174 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 1: The tailspin of the Libs trying to make it like 175 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 1: it's not a ninety ten issue. 176 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 3: I gotta be honest, Joe, Bob. We got to keep 177 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 3: encouraging the Libs to and doing things like this encourage 178 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 3: the Libs to really be all in on the trans issue, 179 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 3: because if we look back at what the most effective 180 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 3: ad was in twenty twenty four for Trump, it was 181 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 3: the one that was Tamala's for They them, I'm for you, 182 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 3: and that's what wins, because you're right, it's a ninety 183 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 3: ten issue, a eighty twenty issue where constantly, constantly Republicans 184 00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 3: win and win and win because the average person, the 185 00:09:57,760 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 3: average person is usually like, if you want to go 186 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 3: be weird, go do it to your go, go do 187 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:03,560 Speaker 3: whatever weird crap you want to do on your own, 188 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 3: but don't make my kids. Don't subject my kids to it. 189 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 3: Don't subject me to it. I'm not gonna call you 190 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 3: as she when you're when you have when you have 191 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 3: a beard, and your your bull is poking out in 192 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 3: your little thong that you're wearing on in June, all 193 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 3: that stuff. No, what we have now is an issue 194 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 3: that will continue to let Republicans and Conservatives win constantly 195 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 3: if we just keep saying men are men and women 196 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 3: are women and you can't change that. Let them get mad, 197 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 3: let them self sabotage. We'll just keep winning. 198 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, it does seem like a very weird hill to 199 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:37,439 Speaker 1: die on, and I, you know, I guess I hope 200 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,360 Speaker 1: they continue making the trek up that hill, and hopefully 201 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 1: conservatives will keep winning because of it. Bo and Kevin 202 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,079 Speaker 1: will be back after the break to discuss more news 203 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 1: of the day, including apparently there was still COVID money 204 00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:51,079 Speaker 1: going out. We'll also check in with Monica Page, the 205 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 1: White House correspondent for Turning Point, right after the break. 206 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 2: Don't go, We'll be right back after this. 207 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:18,959 Speaker 1: Welcome back to Turning Point tonight, where we are charting 208 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,559 Speaker 1: the course of America's cultural comeback. A lot of stuff 209 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:23,439 Speaker 1: going on at the White House, which there's always a 210 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:24,679 Speaker 1: lot of stuff going on at the White House, and 211 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 1: here to talk about that is Turning Points. White House 212 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 1: correspondent Monica Page, Monica, thanks for joining us. 213 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 2: Lots of talk about illegals. 214 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, let me use the appropriate term illegal aliens. 215 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 1: Can you tell us about what the White House is 216 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 1: doing today? Is on their docket. 217 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 7: If you want to be even more politically correct, Joe Bob, 218 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 7: you could say they're migrants. But yeah, there is a 219 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 7: lot going on here today at the White House behind 220 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,200 Speaker 7: closed doors. Of course, we haven't really heard or seen 221 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 7: from much of President Trump's cabinet members today. Usually they 222 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 7: come up and down Pebble Beach doing interviews. We saw 223 00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 7: Carolyn Lovit just earlier this morning, but she didn't really 224 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,199 Speaker 7: give any sort of hints as to what the executive 225 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 7: order could be this late afternoon. President Trump hasn't signed it. 226 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 8: Yet at this time, but by the time you guys 227 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:11,240 Speaker 8: are probably watching this, he probably has already signed it. 228 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 8: But there have been talks whether this is the executive 229 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,559 Speaker 8: order coming today or it's going to be coming very 230 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 8: very soon. Is President Trump looking to abolish sanctuary cities 231 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:23,719 Speaker 8: throughout the United States? We know that illegal immigration was 232 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 8: really a forefront of his campaign promises and trying to 233 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,160 Speaker 8: crack down on illegal immigration, trying to stop the flow 234 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 8: of illegal aliens more than three hundred suspects on the 235 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 8: Terror watchless crossing over the border throughout President Biden's four years. 236 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 8: So President Trump really making this priority of his And 237 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 8: what's interesting is that the news coming out is that 238 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:47,000 Speaker 8: there is no set way to describe or define what 239 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 8: a city is, given that a lot of these are 240 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 8: like little pockets throughout the entire United States. So they're 241 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 8: calling them sanctuary jurisdictions. Now, there are about six hundred 242 00:12:56,559 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 8: of these sanctuary jurisdictions throughout the entire United States, and 243 00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:02,960 Speaker 8: President Trump is arguing that, you know, these little areas 244 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:07,080 Speaker 8: across the United States are really protecting criminals. They're protecting 245 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:09,959 Speaker 8: illegal aliens, they're protecting those who have been committing crimes. 246 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 8: Just this morning, we saw the leader, one of the 247 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 8: main leaders of MS thirteen violent gang member arrested and 248 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 8: apprehended this morning in Virginia. So, I mean, this is 249 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 8: just a very small place compared to really hundreds of 250 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:27,560 Speaker 8: little sanctuary cities throughout the entire United States. So it'll 251 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 8: be interesting. I mean, given that, you know, you have 252 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 8: some of the biggest sanctuary jurisdictions in New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, 253 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:36,439 Speaker 8: Los Angeles. Who knows how many could how many more 254 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 8: could be there. So this is going to be a 255 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 8: very monumental executive order, whether that's coming today or whether 256 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 8: that's going to coming days. 257 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:46,200 Speaker 1: Yes, speaking of that, MS thirteen leader that was captured 258 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: in Virginia. A lot of tough talk coming out of 259 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 1: the administration of Pambondi Cash. Mattel did a press briefing. 260 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 1: I guess from your perspective, from the White House's perspective, 261 00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 1: how much do they think that is playing a role 262 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 1: in stopping people from even attempting to come across the border. 263 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,679 Speaker 8: Oh, it's a huge role. I mean, others who were 264 00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:07,800 Speaker 8: probably looking at coming into the United States are probably 265 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 8: thinking otherwise. Now they're definitely thinking twice. I mean, this 266 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:16,960 Speaker 8: administration has been very, very aggressive in its deportation campaign, 267 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 8: whether it's you know, physically deporting them and arresting them 268 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 8: and flying them out to you know, El Salvador, say 269 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 8: and if that prison system, or just their messaging in general. 270 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 8: I mean, from their actions to what they've been saying, 271 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 8: they're doing everything that they said that they were going 272 00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 8: to do, they've been doing, and they've been doing a 273 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 8: fabulous job. And I think that other states, you know, 274 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:37,680 Speaker 8: if you're a bad guy, it's a bad day to 275 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:39,560 Speaker 8: be a bad guy, and that's exactly what the Trump 276 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 8: administration is proving every single day. So definitely interested to 277 00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 8: see how many more could be apprehended. How many more 278 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 8: that they'll they'll go after across the United States, not 279 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,160 Speaker 8: just on the East Coast, but looking into other states 280 00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 8: as well. I mean, we know that Colorado, you know, 281 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 8: with Trenda Arragua, that was a huge bust of theirs, 282 00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 8: and you know, looking forward to seeing you know, them 283 00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 8: really go into these smaller jurisdictions because that might be 284 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:06,200 Speaker 8: where there's more density over there. So definitely huge for 285 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 8: the Strump administration. And it's only been less than two 286 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 8: in less than three months. So we'll see what happens 287 00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 8: over the next four years as far as immigration goes. 288 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, that'll be it'll be great to see if the 289 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 1: if the numbers keep dwindling at the border. Monica Page 290 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 1: turning points, White House Correspondent, thanks so much for checking 291 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 1: in with us. 292 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 9: Thanks guys. 293 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, we will see how that's a whole sanctuary city 294 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 1: thing turns out for those. 295 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 2: Big blue Lib cities. 296 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 1: Speaking of things that are gonna make big blue Lib 297 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 1: cities mad in big blue Lib states, mad AJSS has 298 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 1: decided to cancel about eleven billion dollars in get this 299 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 1: COVID funding that's still a thing like five years later, 300 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 1: there is still COVID money going out from the federal government. Now, 301 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 1: the Libs are all upset about this because they're saying, well, 302 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 1: this money was meant to do something, and there's projects 303 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 1: that'll be left unfinished. That's what the New York Times 304 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:58,280 Speaker 1: is saying. But at the end of the day, RFK 305 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 1: saying the pandemic is over and HSS will no longer 306 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:03,760 Speaker 1: be wasting billions of tax dollars. 307 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:08,960 Speaker 2: Seems appropriate. Let's bring our panel back in to discuss this. Kevin. 308 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 1: I want to start with you here, why were we 309 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 1: still spending any COVID money? And that's not even that's 310 00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 1: not even backtracking all the way that should we have 311 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:20,480 Speaker 1: ever done it, it's why were we still doing it? 312 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 1: Before we can even get to whether it was a 313 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 1: good idea overall. 314 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:26,440 Speaker 2: Well, here's the thing, Joebobs. 315 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 3: It was the biggest, the biggest way for them to 316 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 3: wash money to whoever, whoever wanted to defraud the government 317 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 3: out of it. In the first place. We know that millions, 318 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 3: if not billions, were used we're used from PPP loans 319 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 3: and fraudulently taken out and so what we're what we're 320 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:45,640 Speaker 3: seeing here is just constantly what DOJ has been doing. 321 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 3: Is is canceling spending that the average American didn't know 322 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 3: was happening, But now that they do know, they're like, hey, 323 00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 3: what the heck?

But I can't imagine r FK would think 332 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:17,920 Speaker 1: any differently. 333 00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 7: Bo. 334 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:23,360 Speaker 1: You know, at a certain point, unfortunately, I think Americans 335 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:27,120 Speaker 1: are going to start looking at this sort of thing 336 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 1: the next time Libs are in power and thinking, wow, 337 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 1: it turns out a lot of people were screwing over 338 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:35,679 Speaker 1: the government. I wonder how I can get in on that. Again, 339 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 1: don't condone that, but I think that's gonna actually start happening, 340 00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 1: considering COVID money was still going around. Is this gonna 341 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 1: be a big problem the next time the Libs hold well, geez, 342 00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:49,600 Speaker 1: the majorities and the executive branch. 343 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, you might as well get it, get 344 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:52,399 Speaker 4: in on it. 345 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:52,640 Speaker 2: Right. 346 00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:54,359 Speaker 4: We went from two weeks to slow the spread to 347 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:56,360 Speaker 4: five years to stop the fraud, and I just think 348 00:17:56,400 --> 00:18:00,720 Speaker 4: that's awfully ironic. I know, if the Liberals come the power, 349 00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 4: what I'm going to do is set up an NGO 350 00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 4: that's going to get government money so I can become 351 00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:07,919 Speaker 4: a millionaire overnight. I don't know why anybody wouldn't. 352 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 7: Do it, right. 353 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not gonna say that you said that specifically. 354 00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:14,160 Speaker 2: I think you just you know a guy that looks 355 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:15,440 Speaker 2: a lot like you that. 356 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:17,919 Speaker 1: When the Libs come into power, may make I don't know, 357 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 1: a couple billion dollars right off the bat. 358 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 2: By the way, I have a. 359 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 4: Twin brother, so just like everybody, no n has the 360 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:26,640 Speaker 4: same exact name. 361 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:30,040 Speaker 1: I love the two weeks to slow the slow the 362 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,159 Speaker 1: curve in five years to stop the fraud. That's a 363 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 1: that's a good one. You should patten that. Speaking of 364 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:36,920 Speaker 1: things that we were wondering why we were sending money 365 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 1: to I, I this kind of blew my mind. HUD 366 00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 1: Housing Urban Development announced yesterday one of the similar reaction 367 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:49,360 Speaker 1: that I had of we were doing that. HUD said 368 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 1: they were going to stop the Biden air policy that 369 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:56,679 Speaker 1: allowed illegal aliens to receive government backed home loans. This 370 00:18:56,800 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 1: ensures HUD resources will go to Americans and Americans own life. 371 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:01,200 Speaker 7: Bo. 372 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:04,640 Speaker 1: First of all, did you know that we were giving 373 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 1: money in terms of government backed home loans to illegals, 374 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 1: or at least that they were that was an option 375 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:11,200 Speaker 1: for illegals. 376 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 4: I think they were doing it in Texas and California 377 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:20,439 Speaker 4: before this news broke. Yeah, so it's been happening. There 378 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:22,959 Speaker 4: were whole developments in Texas that were bought out and 379 00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:27,160 Speaker 4: given to illegals home loans. And listen, I love the cancelation. 380 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 4: I've been working on my Spanish, and the only thing 381 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 4: I have to say, hold on, I've been working on 382 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 4: my just the only thing I have to say is audios. 383 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:42,920 Speaker 1: You know, I was I was half anticipating you blurting 384 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 1: out somewhat of a I am here illegally, Please give. 385 00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 2: Me a federal loans because apparently. 386 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:51,360 Speaker 1: It might be easier for you to apply if you're 387 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 1: an illegal than you're an actual American citizen under the. 388 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:57,880 Speaker 2: Hard If I look like this administration, there you go. 389 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, you and Kevin wouldn't fair too well, Kevin. So yeah, 390 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:05,720 Speaker 1: the crackdown, says HUT is going to no longer issue 391 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 1: public housing, no access to federal funded shelters, and no 392 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 1: FHA loans to illegals. Why do Libs think this is 393 00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 1: a good idea, especially considering we've talked about this a lot. 394 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:22,440 Speaker 1: I personally think letting a bunch of illegals from South 395 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,159 Speaker 1: America come into the country obviously is a dangerous from 396 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:28,160 Speaker 1: a gang perspective, But just politically speaking, let's just say 397 00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:32,439 Speaker 1: you have a hard working Latin American family those I 398 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 1: mean that pretty religious base, a lot of Catholics down 399 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 1: there coming to the United States. I don't necessarily know. 400 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 1: What I'm trying to say is that the Libs betting 401 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:45,440 Speaker 1: that those people are going to eventually vote for them 402 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:45,919 Speaker 1: in the future. 403 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,440 Speaker 2: I don't know if that's a good bet. So why 404 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 2: is it that Libs were trying to push this stuff through. 405 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 3: Well because they weren't getting the votes from the American 406 00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 3: citizens as is, so any bet is better than what 407 00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,879 Speaker 3: they currently have. Along with the fact is I mean, 408 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:03,959 Speaker 3: who else is going to bring in the smuggled ninja swords? 409 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 3: I mean, it's got to be these illegals from the 410 00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 3: southern border are bringing in those ninja swords so that 411 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 3: so that eventually we can get them over to the UK, 412 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 3: and then that's how we're gonna start funding Democrat campaigns somehow. 413 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:15,479 Speaker 5: No, I'm kidding. 414 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 3: But when we look at at these everything that's going 415 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:21,440 Speaker 3: on here, as BO said, we know that that Lib 416 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:23,679 Speaker 3: states we're funding these kinds of things a lot, and 417 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 3: it's because just as I mentioned, is they were trying 418 00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 3: to in any way support people that would have a 419 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 3: better chance of voting for them. Veterans who really could 420 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:35,879 Speaker 3: use the money not going to vote for them. The 421 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 3: average American who's struggling under their economy not going to 422 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 3: vote for them because they have nothing good to sell. 423 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:45,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, I kind of I'm curious about both of your 424 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 1: just generic thoughts about this. Currently speaking, the American people 425 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:55,440 Speaker 1: polling shows are really really four dose right. Having said that, obviously, 426 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:57,880 Speaker 1: the LIB media and the mainstream media and the left 427 00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:00,320 Speaker 1: is all said, well, this is just terrible that we 428 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:04,639 Speaker 1: are firing federal employees right now. As it stands, the 429 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 1: American people are still behind getting rid of government waste 430 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 1: and fraud and abuse and all that sort of stuff 431 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,399 Speaker 1: at some point though, and I'm just curious, Kevin will 432 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:14,959 Speaker 1: start with you, do you think they'll start to wane 433 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 1: on that isn't What is the timeframe that the Trump 434 00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:20,280 Speaker 1: administration has to do all this stuff before the American people, 435 00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:23,120 Speaker 1: you know, it's not the hottest topic in the world anymore, 436 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:25,680 Speaker 1: and they kind of get over the enthusiasm. 437 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,280 Speaker 3: I think the average American is. I think some are 438 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:34,600 Speaker 3: already starting to honestly get a little antsy. Many thought 439 00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:36,640 Speaker 3: that day one Trump would come in and the cost 440 00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:38,480 Speaker 3: of their eggs, the cost of their gas, cost of 441 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:40,480 Speaker 3: everything would go down. And while in some sectors of 442 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 3: America parts of the economy is slowly recuperating, they're expecting 443 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:46,879 Speaker 3: a lot more, a lot quicker than it can happen. 444 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 3: And so assuming that people get better tax breaks earlier on, 445 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 3: I think many are getting antsy. But the fortunate thing 446 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:57,640 Speaker 3: about it is that Trump still has three years and 447 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 3: ten months left, so so it doesn't matter necessarily. The 448 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:04,720 Speaker 3: American people can get a little bit fat up, but 449 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:08,680 Speaker 3: worst case scenario, he's got time to make sure these 450 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 3: promises are kepped. 451 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, we will see if the American people can hold 452 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:15,159 Speaker 1: to that. Bo I've only got five seconds. Do you 453 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:17,199 Speaker 1: want to practice the one word in Spanish that you know? 454 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 1: To end the segment, Audios, Bo Roberts said, Kevin Ferris, 455 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 1: thanks so much for joining us. 456 00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:26,160 Speaker 2: Really appreciate you taking the time. 457 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 5: Thank you, jobob, thank you. 458 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:31,639 Speaker 1: Coming up on turning point tonight, we have an awesome 459 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:35,399 Speaker 1: clip from Alex Clark's Culture Apothecary podcast, as well as 460 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:37,879 Speaker 1: well my funnest segment where we get to read your 461 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 1: emails again tpt ATPUSA dot com email anytime, whether you 462 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:42,879 Speaker 1: agree or you're wrong.

That's when things changed for me, 488 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:48,440 Speaker 11: instead of listening to everybody and their mother then on top. 489 00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 11: Then it got solidified because I went back and forth. 490 00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:53,040 Speaker 11: It got solidified when I placed Christ at the center 491 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:56,919 Speaker 11: of Yeah, it really just takes you figuring out your body, 492 00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:58,960 Speaker 11: and you know you can get help with that, but 493 00:24:59,000 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 11: you got to do it. 494 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 10: Counting carbs, macros or calories. 495 00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 5: A sure far away to lose weight. 496 00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 11: I don't know if it's a surefire way to lose weight, 497 00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:08,840 Speaker 11: Like it definitely helps to be aware of how much 498 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,520 Speaker 11: you're taking in the balance of your macro nutrients, for sure, 499 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:15,200 Speaker 11: because you could easily just overindulge on carbs and fats 500 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,199 Speaker 11: and stuff like that. So I think most folks today 501 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:19,639 Speaker 11: it is helpful to do it short term. And you know, 502 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 11: as a coach, I have people do this for periods 503 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 11: of time throughout their process with us because I loved 504 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 11: calorie tracking for the sense of the awareness that it 505 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:28,720 Speaker 11: brings to a person. That being said, I don't think 506 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:30,639 Speaker 11: it's a healthy thing to do long term, right, So 507 00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 11: this is where you get folks that like they obsess 508 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:36,639 Speaker 11: over the numbers and I'm just thinking about the whole person. 509 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,520 Speaker 11: God wants you who It doesn't necessarily need you skinny, 510 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:44,120 Speaker 11: So like, obsessing over those types of numbers can really 511 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:47,120 Speaker 11: ruin your relationship with food. And in terms of wholeness, 512 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 11: I think you got to have a good relationship with 513 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:50,000 Speaker 11: food if this is gonna be something that like, if 514 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:52,600 Speaker 11: you're gonna be healthy twenty years from now versus just 515 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:54,639 Speaker 11: in the next six months you've got your beach body, 516 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 11: then we need to work on your overall relationship with food. 517 00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 11: So I'm kind of going beyond your question. Yeah, and 518 00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 11: absolutely can help with you losing weight. And I have 519 00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:07,879 Speaker 11: used calorie tracking on and off throughout my years in 520 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:11,320 Speaker 11: this industry. That being said, I think you should use 521 00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 11: it the right way, and you know, just be careful 522 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:17,200 Speaker 11: not to go too far with macro and calorie tracking. 523 00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:20,720 Speaker 10: When I think about the American Church, I think about 524 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:25,720 Speaker 10: all of the different activities and events that are built 525 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:30,160 Speaker 10: around food. From the food that we're giving families right 526 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 10: before service starts, to whatever's being served at youth group, 527 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:37,960 Speaker 10: small group food being served, whatever we're giving toddlers in 528 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:42,240 Speaker 10: the nursery in Sunday school class, all of these different things. 529 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:45,160 Speaker 10: What does food look like in the American Church currently 530 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:46,399 Speaker 10: and what should it look like? 531 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 11: Well, it looks like America, like largely right, Like we 532 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 11: were instructed not to conform to the patterns of this world. 533 00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:56,479 Speaker 11: What we have in many ways when it comes to nutrition, 534 00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:59,159 Speaker 11: we have right and so we see a lot of 535 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:01,600 Speaker 11: fried food, We see a lot of you know, just 536 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 11: junk food. And the youth events it's always pizza and 537 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:07,439 Speaker 11: you know, chips and soda and stuff like that. At 538 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 11: our lockins and even sometimes in the nursery it's just 539 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 11: whatever we'll get the kids to be quiet, you know. 540 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:16,600 Speaker 11: But if it really should look like we represent the 541 00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 11: Kingdom of Heaven, it should look more like the Garden 542 00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 11: of Eden. And what he instructed Noah to do. So 543 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:26,480 Speaker 11: we should see more whole food items. You know, put 544 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:28,480 Speaker 11: out the donuts and people like, we have donuts the 545 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 11: beginning of every service. Fine, have donuts, but also have 546 00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 11: oranges and apples, Like, at least get people the option. 547 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:35,920 Speaker 5: I'm going to have a donut periodically. 548 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 2: Great. 549 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:37,920 Speaker 11: I'm not going to say that I never ever ever 550 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:39,800 Speaker 11: have anything. And I think that's like where people get 551 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 11: into like legalism with this. I have two little kids. 552 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:46,159 Speaker 11: I've got almost twelve year old and my daughter is 553 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 11: going to be ten this month. Every once in a 554 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:49,200 Speaker 11: while we're having ice cream. 555 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:51,439 Speaker 10: Come on, man, and guess what ice cream can be 556 00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:53,960 Speaker 10: a health food? You look at ingredience if it is 557 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:58,240 Speaker 10: just you know, milk and cream or in honey or whatever, 558 00:27:58,359 --> 00:27:59,160 Speaker 10: a little real. 559 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:00,639 Speaker 5: Shit, get to make it cool and elementary. 560 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:03,199 Speaker 11: Yes, it was so great with the ice bag and 561 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,200 Speaker 11: the saw and like that was good. 562 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 5: It was just cream and like cane sugar and vanilla 563 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:10,000 Speaker 5: extract like good. Exactly. 564 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:13,360 Speaker 11: I think in the church we should have multiple options, 565 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:15,280 Speaker 11: and I think the majority of our food should look 566 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 11: like our lifestyle should look. 567 00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:17,359 Speaker 5: Which is that. 568 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:20,880 Speaker 11: Eighty twenty ninety ten mentality of most of the time, 569 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:23,679 Speaker 11: I'm eating what God created because it's what God wanted 570 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:24,560 Speaker 11: me to be eating. 571 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:27,240 Speaker 10: Everybody that thinks they're eighty twenty are really probably like 572 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:29,960 Speaker 10: sixty forty or fifty fifty or fifty fifty or worse. 573 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:33,160 Speaker 11: Most folks that are like trying to live a balanced 574 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 11: lifestyle are kind of saying they're saying that kind of 575 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:37,639 Speaker 11: justifying the fact that, like they don't really keep a 576 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:39,480 Speaker 11: track of what they're doing, but generally in their minds 577 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:42,479 Speaker 11: are healthy. But it's like twelve years of coaching folks 578 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 11: forget what they snacked on, Folks for the exactly left 579 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 11: and right, and then you have the conversation like well 580 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:49,640 Speaker 11: I did have this, and then oh, well yeah, and 581 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 11: like you know, it's like okay. 582 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:56,000 Speaker 10: Some Christians believe that suffering and that includes with health 583 00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 10: issues is part of God's plan or a test of faith. 584 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:01,040 Speaker 10: What do you say to those. 585 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:04,080 Speaker 11: People, Yeah, that's like a sceticism, like you suffering physically, 586 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:06,360 Speaker 11: And that's what he was talking about in First Timothy 587 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:08,440 Speaker 11: four to eight, like physical training is of some value, 588 00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:09,760 Speaker 11: but godliance is the value for all things. 589 00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 5: There were a group of people who. 590 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 11: Thought, like if I just put my body under torture 591 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:17,280 Speaker 11: and suffering and don't eat and do all these things. 592 00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 11: That's a way I can get closer to God. We 593 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:23,920 Speaker 11: are saved by grace through faith in Christ alone, and 594 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:26,320 Speaker 11: so we're not going to work our way closer to 595 00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:28,800 Speaker 11: God or work our way into being more righteous. We're 596 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 11: made righteous through Jesus. 597 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:30,960 Speaker 5: That's right. 598 00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 11: And so physically it's not a whole lot you can 599 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:37,239 Speaker 11: do to make yourself righteous or more righteous, because our 600 00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 11: good works are filthy rags. 601 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 6: Right. 602 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:43,959 Speaker 11: That being said, you can live intentionally to be a 603 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 11: better vessel for the works God has given you to do. 604 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:49,520 Speaker 11: So you know how I think about that. I do 605 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:51,480 Speaker 11: not think that you should approach health and fitness as 606 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:54,880 Speaker 11: this rule that you've set so that you can bring 607 00:29:54,920 --> 00:30:00,160 Speaker 11: yourself to a higher state of righteousness, holiness, the these 608 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:02,880 Speaker 11: are all things that come through Christ and with God. 609 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 11: And at the end of the day, the way that 610 00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 11: you treat your body just needs to represent your devotion 611 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 11: to God. 612 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:10,120 Speaker 5: That's it. 613 00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:12,720 Speaker 11: That's all this is about. This needs to represent my 614 00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 11: devotion to God for me, my relationship with Him, and 615 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,160 Speaker 11: then also because of my I have an impact as 616 00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:21,880 Speaker 11: an ambassador for Christ. As a city on a hill rightly, 617 00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:25,720 Speaker 11: we have a responsibility on this earth, whether we are 618 00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:29,760 Speaker 11: we categorize ourselves as introverted or whatever it is you 619 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 11: are as a believer now a disciple of Christ. Like 620 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 11: whatever you had going on prior to it's kind of irrelevant. 621 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:42,080 Speaker 11: You are now called to be that gospel sharing witness 622 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 11: representation for the Kingdom of Heaven. 623 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 10: Do you think somebody who is struggling with being physically 624 00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 10: healthy it could hurt their witness? Is that what you're insinuating. 625 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 11: That is exactly what I'm insinuating. Yes, And I say 626 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:56,680 Speaker 11: this not assumptively. I'm saying this from the side of 627 00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:59,120 Speaker 11: talking to non believers of like how can I listen 628 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:00,520 Speaker 11: to you and you're telling me this and that, but 629 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 11: like you clearly don't even care about yourself, Like you're 630 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:05,360 Speaker 11: talking about like you serve God and all that, but 631 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,440 Speaker 11: like like you're a glutton. Like I have a friend 632 00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:12,200 Speaker 11: who's like going through the process and whatnot, and he 633 00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:15,600 Speaker 11: had a kiosk in one of the malls where he's 634 00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 11: selling like shirts and all, you know, just Christian things. 635 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:21,720 Speaker 11: And person walked up and was like, dude, like, how 636 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:23,280 Speaker 11: can I like take you seriously? 637 00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:25,880 Speaker 5: Bro? Like, look at you, like you're just as bound 638 00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:27,720 Speaker 5: up as everybody else. It's hard to hear. 639 00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:30,280 Speaker 11: It's hard to hear, and it's not right, Like that's 640 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 11: very shallow. Like I have amazing brothers and sisters in 641 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:36,760 Speaker 11: the Lord who truly love Jesus Christ and are doing 642 00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 11: a great work for him, but they're not physically where 643 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:43,479 Speaker 11: they should be because of like their lifestyle and whatnot. 644 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,200 Speaker 10: You know, think about you know, the pastor who's great 645 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:47,959 Speaker 10: and his wife's great and all that, but then their 646 00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 10: kids are a mess. You know, the kids are out 647 00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:53,000 Speaker 10: partying drug addicts, and it's like, why, what's going on 648 00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:55,720 Speaker 10: in that house. He's obviously plugged into church and leading 649 00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 10: his congregation, but he's not leading his own family times 650 00:31:57,680 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 10: but not. 651 00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:00,680 Speaker 11: And that's in scripture, like that's the qualification of an elder, 652 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:02,920 Speaker 11: Like he must be a good leader. He has to 653 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:04,960 Speaker 11: be able to manage his own home, is what the 654 00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 11: scripture says. So yeah, like people do look at our 655 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:09,360 Speaker 11: life and they say like, okay, well you've got these 656 00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,400 Speaker 11: parts straight, but like are you doing something about this? 657 00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:16,240 Speaker 11: And like there's nothing wrong with being overweight or struggling 658 00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:19,240 Speaker 11: in that way if you're doing something about it, Like 659 00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:21,440 Speaker 11: you don't have to have a six pack to be 660 00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 11: honoring God, right, Like he doesn't care about whether you 661 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:27,760 Speaker 11: have ablines or snatched wastes or whatever the case may be. 662 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:30,440 Speaker 11: But God does want you living in a way that 663 00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:33,520 Speaker 11: it like if somebody were to imitate your life, they 664 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:35,680 Speaker 11: would be in a good place mentally, spiritually, and physically 665 00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 11: five years from now. Like when I think of Paul saying, 666 00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:40,320 Speaker 11: follow me as I follow Christ, the great mindset to 667 00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:42,680 Speaker 11: take on is if somebody were to imitate my life 668 00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:44,560 Speaker 11: the way I live it now, where would they be 669 00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 11: next year? Physically, mentally and spiritually? Where were they be 670 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:48,320 Speaker 11: in five years? Where were they be in ten years? 671 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:51,239 Speaker 11: If somebody were to actually be discipled by me? And 672 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:54,320 Speaker 11: like that's what discipleship looked like. These twelve followed Christ 673 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:56,920 Speaker 11: and they did what he did. They imitated him, right, 674 00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:59,760 Speaker 11: and then they became the people that others imitated and 675 00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:01,440 Speaker 11: that we're supposed to do the same thing. Like that's 676 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:03,640 Speaker 11: it's each one teach one like you keep This is 677 00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 11: how the church has grown over the years, is that 678 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 11: we disciple others. We follow Christ, and then folks follow us, 679 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:10,720 Speaker 11: and then we introduce them to Him and then they 680 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,200 Speaker 11: do the same thing for other people. Well, the way 681 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 11: that I live my life, I can't be conformed to 682 00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 11: the world in any way. I can't be like prone 683 00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:21,320 Speaker 11: to to binge watching Netflix, because if you were to 684 00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:23,960 Speaker 11: imitate my life, then you might see you might find 685 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:26,640 Speaker 11: justification in that. And instead of doing things for the kingdom, 686 00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 11: spending more time with your family, I'm like stuck on 687 00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 11: football all Sunday instead of like discipling my kids, or 688 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:36,000 Speaker 11: I'm over eating oreos at the end of dinner because 689 00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 11: I have to have something sweet and then my family's 690 00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:40,680 Speaker 11: following along with that. Like I need to make sure 691 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:44,600 Speaker 11: that I'm being a good disciple and a representative because 692 00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:48,240 Speaker 11: I do have a responsibility to witness and demonstrate that 693 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 11: for other people. 694 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:10,719 Speaker 1: Welcome back to Turning Point tonight.

We will mock it roundly together. 746 00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:42,440 Speaker 12: Children and adults alike are identifying is all kinds of 747 00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:46,680 Speaker 12: different things. Hundreds of people who identify as dogs bark 748 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:50,399 Speaker 12: at each other at this Berlin train station. This phenomenon 749 00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:54,280 Speaker 12: is known as trans species people who believe they're another 750 00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:57,839 Speaker 12: animal trapped in a human's body. This woman lives as 751 00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:02,080 Speaker 12: a horse, which has clearly yielded to her certain athletic abilities. 752 00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:06,200 Speaker 12: This thirteen year old boy identifies as a cat. He 753 00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:09,080 Speaker 12: eats cat food out of the dish on the floor 754 00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:12,480 Speaker 12: and even uses cat toys, but does he use the 755 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:18,239 Speaker 12: litter box. But it doesn't stop at animals. People can 756 00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:22,560 Speaker 12: identify as anything. This girl identifies as an elf. She 757 00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:26,560 Speaker 12: identifies as a baby. This one a mermaid. This is 758 00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:30,440 Speaker 12: a lawyer who identifies as a robot. Is this behavior 759 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:33,080 Speaker 12: something that we should be concerned about? Or in a 760 00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:36,040 Speaker 12: free and open society, should people have the right to 761 00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 12: be an act and do whatever they'd like as long 762 00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:40,920 Speaker 12: as they're not hurting anybody? I tend to agree with 763 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:41,440 Speaker 12: the latter. 764 00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:46,840 Speaker 1: Okay, Hey, let's take that point. People can do whatever 765 00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:50,319 Speaker 1: they want unless they're hurting or if they're not hurting anyone. Okay, 766 00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:54,440 Speaker 1: let's assume that is the case. Okay, Well, if you 767 00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:58,040 Speaker 1: get to be a dog or a cat, do I 768 00:37:58,200 --> 00:38:01,160 Speaker 1: then get to assume you as a pet, take you 769 00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:03,440 Speaker 1: to the pound and have you put down. Is that 770 00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:05,880 Speaker 1: part of it? Is that part of the whole. You know, 771 00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:07,560 Speaker 1: you get to do whatever you want because okay, this 772 00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:11,040 Speaker 1: is how I you know, unfortunately have to fortunately what 773 00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:13,719 Speaker 1: we have to do to pets. Sometimes you gotta put 774 00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:15,839 Speaker 1: them down, and that's just a part of life. And 775 00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:19,440 Speaker 1: if people identify as those animals, does that mean well, 776 00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:22,960 Speaker 1: I don't know, you call in Christy Nome and you 777 00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:28,040 Speaker 1: know some of you will get that reference. Also, you know, 778 00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:29,840 Speaker 1: if you're an elf, do I get to demand that 779 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:32,160 Speaker 1: you bake cookies or build me Christmas toys? If you're 780 00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:34,960 Speaker 1: a mermaid? Do I get to keep you underwater for 781 00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:37,680 Speaker 1: longer than a human being can actually hold their breath. 782 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:39,680 Speaker 1: These are all questions that I have for the people 783 00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:41,680 Speaker 1: that think, well, you should just be able to do. 784 00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:43,920 Speaker 2: Whatever you want. Okay, fine, what if I. 785 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:47,239 Speaker 1: Do participate in your fantasy and that, you know, leads 786 00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:50,440 Speaker 1: to some unfortunate circumstances. I'm not saying we should do that. 787 00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:52,799 Speaker 1: I'm not condoning that by any way, shape or form, 788 00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:56,080 Speaker 1: but it is a question worth asking. 789 00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,440 Speaker 2: Let's make sure I can get to this clip. Clip three. 790 00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:02,120 Speaker 1: I thought This was fascinating and hilarious from a comedian, 791 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:06,239 Speaker 1: I'm talking about the types of people that would identify 792 00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:07,360 Speaker 1: as those crazy animals. 793 00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:08,359 Speaker 2: Watch this. This is fun. 794 00:39:08,680 --> 00:39:12,279 Speaker 13: I'm liberal, but it's totally embarrassing and unsustainable at this point. 795 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:15,800 Speaker 9: Like it's just could you imagine a zombie. 796 00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:16,920 Speaker 2: Apocalypse in our society. 797 00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:20,400 Speaker 13: Republicans would be like, let's carpet bomb all the zombies, 798 00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 13: and the Democrats would just be like, hey, they don't 799 00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:35,279 Speaker 13: just put it around case me cure, we. 800 00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:37,360 Speaker 1: Can indoculate, don't bring it back to life. 801 00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:39,040 Speaker 2: If you wearing shirts of the un dead oral line. 802 00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:45,440 Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, sometimes the priorities of the Libs seem 803 00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:48,759 Speaker 1: to be misplaced. That reminds me of the Norm McDonald joke. 804 00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:52,200 Speaker 1: Maybe I'll bring that on tomorrow. But effectively, he says like, 805 00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:55,120 Speaker 1: you know what a terrible thing it would be if 806 00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:59,960 Speaker 1: a Muslim Jihatis were to blow up kill ten million 807 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:03,320 Speaker 1: people because of the Muslim backlash, And the person he 808 00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:05,080 Speaker 1: was talking to was like, yeah, the Muslim backlash, that 809 00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:07,680 Speaker 1: would be the problem. No, probably would be the ten 810 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:10,640 Speaker 1: million people, But I don't know. That reminded me of 811 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:13,360 Speaker 1: that joke. Maybe we'll bring that tomorrow. Hey, thanks so 812 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:15,200 Speaker 1: much for tuning in.

But really appreciate you sticking around 817 00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:28,879 Speaker 1: and tuning in. Charlie is going to take us out 818 00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:30,960 Speaker 1: in the next segment, and then a rerun of The 819 00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:34,239 Speaker 1: Charlie Kirk Show will play. We will see you tomorrow though, 820 00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:47,240 Speaker 1: same time, same place. God bless America. 821 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:50,400 Speaker 9: The signal situation is continuing, and I would love to 822 00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:53,719 Speaker 9: no longer talk about this. It is my preference to 823 00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:55,839 Speaker 9: go talk about other issues that are occurring right now. 824 00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:57,799 Speaker 9: There's a lot of good things happening. Our southern border 825 00:40:57,840 --> 00:41:00,000 Speaker 9: is secure. Governor Christy numb is going to and she's 826 00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:03,680 Speaker 9: visiting l Salvadorian prisons. But this is a very very 827 00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:06,000 Speaker 9: important story, and let me tell you why, because it 828 00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:08,640 Speaker 9: is revealing a fault line of actually what divides the 829 00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:12,759 Speaker 9: Republican Party. The Republican Party is not divided based on 830 00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:16,880 Speaker 9: domestic policy. We're actually largely in agreement. We want low taxes, 831 00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:19,759 Speaker 9: we want economic freedom, even deportations. You're not going to 832 00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:22,440 Speaker 9: find a lot of fight amongst rank and file Republican 833 00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:26,520 Speaker 9: senators about this. Instead, the fault line, the dividing line 834 00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:30,720 Speaker 9: in the Republican Party is foreign policy. It is foreign policy. 835 00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:33,319 Speaker 9: It's whether or not you want to continue the Great 836 00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:36,440 Speaker 9: American Empire, if you want to invade more sovereign countries, 837 00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:38,799 Speaker 9: if you believe the Iraq War in the Afghanistan War 838 00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:43,480 Speaker 9: were a success or a mistake. The jd vance America 839 00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:47,160 Speaker 9: First force that President Trump has been pushing forward to 840 00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:50,200 Speaker 9: the President trump jadvance force, i should say, is one 841 00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:54,040 Speaker 9: of America First, not America only, but America First, where 842 00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:57,760 Speaker 9: the other side of the Republican Party is America everywhere, 843 00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:00,600 Speaker 9: all the time, regardless of the cost, the consequence, or 844 00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:05,720 Speaker 9: the issues that we might intentionally or unintentionally may happen. 845 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:10,160 Speaker 9: The fallout from the signal chat is revealing this fault line. 846 00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:13,640 Speaker 9: It is revealing the fault line because on one side you 847 00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:16,759 Speaker 9: have the neo conservatives, and on the other side you 848 00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:19,520 Speaker 9: have the realists, you have the America First patriots, and 849 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:22,520 Speaker 9: they are trying to use this as an opportunity. The 850 00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 9: neo conservatives on Capitol Hill, the neo conservatives within our 851 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:29,719 Speaker 9: deep state of government to remove the good guys in 852 00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:32,880 Speaker 9: our administration. So you have two teams here. I'm going 853 00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:34,400 Speaker 9: to break it through. No one else is making this 854 00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:36,120 Speaker 9: analysis right now, because I happen to be in the 855 00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:39,279 Speaker 9: weeds on this. I'm telling you exactly what's occurring. Number one, 856 00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:43,560 Speaker 9: there is a coordinated hit. There is a concerted attack. 857 00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:51,120 Speaker 9: There is a collaborative strike against Pete Hegseth. Front page 858 00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:56,480 Speaker 9: the Wall Street Journal. Hegseth faces rising scrutiny over security 859 00:42:56,520 --> 00:42:59,120 Speaker 9: breach on chat. Front page of the New York Times. 860 00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:03,640 Speaker 9: Right here leaked signal chat excerpts on the signal chat 861 00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:08,920 Speaker 9: published Wednesday. It's all about Pete Hegseth. Now understand, whose 862 00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:12,520 Speaker 9: job is it to make sure that established order is 863 00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:16,640 Speaker 9: followed in military communications? First and foremost, that's actually the 864 00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:20,239 Speaker 9: National Security Advisor's job. It is Mike Waltz and his 865 00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:23,360 Speaker 9: team to even say, hey, Pete, we should not be 866 00:43:23,400 --> 00:43:24,560 Speaker 9: having this conversation here. 867 00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:25,799 Speaker 2: Who set up the chat? 868 00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:27,800 Speaker 9: Did Pete Heggseth set up the group chat? 869 00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:28,080 Speaker 1: No? 870 00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:31,799 Speaker 9: No, no, Mike Waltz and Alex Wong set up the 871 00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:36,440 Speaker 9: group chat. Not Pete hegg Seth Pete Heggseth merely participated 872 00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:36,719 Speaker 9: in it. 873 00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:37,719 Speaker 5: Should he have done that? 874 00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:42,479 Speaker 9: Maybe maybe not signals an approved device said it wasn't 875 00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:45,800 Speaker 9: class wide information. But what you're seeing all of a 876 00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:51,480 Speaker 9: sudden as a response is someone who is not responsible 877 00:43:51,520 --> 00:43:56,319 Speaker 9: for this under any fair analysis, is getting all of 878 00:43:56,360 --> 00:44:01,680 Speaker 9: the media's scrutiny. It's a coordinated attack on our friend 879 00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:03,880 Speaker 9: of this program, Pete Heggseth, And we are not going 880 00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:06,399 Speaker 9: to put up with this. They are trying to they 881 00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:08,839 Speaker 9: being the neo conservative. 882 00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:08,799 Speaker 5: On Capitol Hill. 883 00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:10,640 Speaker 9: I'm gonna tell you who they are named by name 884 00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:13,560 Speaker 9: to now go remove Pete Hegseth. And remember how hard 885 00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:15,000 Speaker 9: we had to fight to get Pete hegg Seth across 886 00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:17,440 Speaker 9: the finish line. We had the whole Joney Earns situation. 887 00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:19,719 Speaker 9: Mitch McConnell voted against him, We had to go to 888 00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:21,760 Speaker 9: fifty votes and Jadie Vance had. 889 00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:22,520 Speaker 2: To break the tie. 890 00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:24,680 Speaker 9: And they are now trying to remove Pete hegg Seth 891 00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:28,279 Speaker 9: because Pete Hegseth is not a warmonger. What bothered them 892 00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:29,919 Speaker 9: the most about the signal chat is not the fact 893 00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:33,520 Speaker 9: that they were using signal to discuss quote unquote tech 894 00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:37,280 Speaker 9: plans or war plans. What bothered them is Pete Hegseeth 895 00:44:38,239 --> 00:44:42,920 Speaker 9: and Jadie Vance are simpatico in a prudent use of 896 00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:48,279 Speaker 9: American force and a cautious foreign policy perspective, not a 897 00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:53,000 Speaker 9: belligerent one, not a aggressive one, not a George W. Bush, 898 00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:57,799 Speaker 9: Dick Cheney, John Bolton view of American foreign policy that 899 00:44:57,840 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 9: gave us the failures over the last time twenty thirty years. 900 00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:05,040 Speaker 9: What bothered the people on Capitol Hill is the fact 901 00:45:05,040 --> 00:45:08,319 Speaker 9: that Jade Vance and Pete Hegseth have a much more 902 00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:12,799 Speaker 9: nuanced worldview to put America and Americans first. So the 903 00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:15,239 Speaker 9: hit is underway against Pete Hegseth, but it's not just 904 00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:17,880 Speaker 9: Pete Hegseth. Also, there was an article this morning in 905 00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:24,440 Speaker 9: the Jewish Insider citing seven US Senators attacking Jadie Vance 906 00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:27,280 Speaker 9: for what he was saying in the group chat this morning, 907 00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:32,080 Speaker 9: and those seven US Senators were all anonymous. The seven 908 00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:34,560 Speaker 9: US Senators refused to even go on the record. This 909 00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:37,440 Speaker 9: is revealing the fault line of the actual divide in 910 00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:44,319 Speaker 9: the Republican Party, and it is foreign policy. You know 911 00:45:44,360 --> 00:45:47,839 Speaker 9: who else shares Cheney and George W. Bush views, It's 912 00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:53,040 Speaker 9: Jeffrey Goldberg. He was a fake news hack used to 913 00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:58,440 Speaker 9: stoke the Iraq war coincidence. Maybe, So, what's really going 914 00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:01,359 Speaker 9: on here is a fight for the soul of our 915 00:46:01,719 --> 00:46:05,799 Speaker 9: Republican party. It's not about signal group chats. It's not 916 00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:09,640 Speaker 9: about security, it's not about any of that hocus pocus stuff. 917 00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:13,160 Speaker 9: It's not about Roger Wicker, who's sending this ridiculous letter 918 00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:15,760 Speaker 9: from Mississippi saying, but we need to have a Department 919 00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:19,560 Speaker 9: of Defense ig investigation. Do you notice that none of 920 00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:23,760 Speaker 9: them on Capitol Hill, from Tom Cotton to Roger Wicker, 921 00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:27,360 Speaker 9: are drawing any fire on the person that actually created 922 00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:32,080 Speaker 9: this group chat or his lieutenant, Alex Wong. Do you 923 00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:37,239 Speaker 9: notice that they're not criticizing Mike Waltz at all, that 924 00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:39,920 Speaker 9: they're not going after Alex Wong, his deputy, who's the 925 00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:43,200 Speaker 9: one that was responsible for putting this all together. Now 926 00:46:43,320 --> 00:46:47,480 Speaker 9: instead out of nowhere, it's Pete Hegseth's fault. What is 927 00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:49,799 Speaker 9: that all about. It's because they want to remove Pete 928 00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:55,319 Speaker 9: hegg Seth regardless of this entire situation. Oh and it 929 00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:59,319 Speaker 9: gets even richer than this. So Alex Wong is the 930 00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:05,400 Speaker 9: deputy National Security Advisor under Mike Waltz. Alex Wang discovered 931 00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:09,879 Speaker 9: by Laura Lumer. His wife, Candace chu Wong, worked under 932 00:47:09,920 --> 00:47:14,160 Speaker 9: the Obama administration and the Biden administration as an assistant 933 00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:18,200 Speaker 9: US attorney in the US Attorney's Office. Oh, she was 934 00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:21,120 Speaker 9: involved in the prosecution of many January six ers. This 935 00:47:21,840 --> 00:47:25,160 Speaker 9: guy is married to someone that was locking up our patriots, 936 00:47:26,160 --> 00:47:29,440 Speaker 9: Mike Waltz. According to reporting that I've heard, Mike Waltz 937 00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:32,399 Speaker 9: still has a ton of Biden holdovers in the Trump 938 00:47:32,520 --> 00:47:36,200 Speaker 9: National Security Office, a ton people that have donated to 939 00:47:36,280 --> 00:47:39,400 Speaker 9: Kamala Harris. They're still working in the National Security Agency 940 00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:43,560 Speaker 9: right now in the Trump White House. Mike Waltz has 941 00:47:43,560 --> 00:47:47,279 Speaker 9: defended them. So why is it that Pete Hegseth gets 942 00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:50,319 Speaker 9: all the criticism, But Mike Waltz and Alex Wang are 943 00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:52,600 Speaker 9: just kind of skating by. They're not on the front 944 00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:54,920 Speaker 9: page of the New York Times, They're not on the 945 00:47:54,920 --> 00:47:56,880 Speaker 9: front page the Wall Street Journal. It's a little bizarre, 946 00:47:56,920 --> 00:48:02,120 Speaker 9: isn't it.
