All right, 115 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 4: So Blake, take us up to speed. There's been a 116 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:15,480 Speaker 4: lot since yesterday's show. About this back and forth between 117 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 4: Secretary of War Pete hag Seth and Senator Mark Kelly. 118 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:22,160 Speaker 14: So, well, let's just let's start from the baseline. Most 119 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 14: of you have seen this, but in case you haven't, 120 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 14: this is the video that kicked it all off, that 121 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 14: six Democrats put out they released on social media a 122 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 14: few days ago. 123 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 12: Let's just put up one sixty four. 124 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 2: I'm Senator Alissa Soockins, Senator Mark Kelly, Representative Chris S. Deluzio, 125 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 2: Representative Chrissy Hulahan, Congressman Jason Crowe. 126 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 10: Our laws are clear. 127 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 9: You can refuse illegal orders. 128 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:48,840 Speaker 2: You can refuse illegal orders. 129 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,599 Speaker 1: You must refuse illegal orders. 130 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 14: And so and it went on a bit like that, 131 00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:58,680 Speaker 14: you must refuse illegal order, don't don't give up the 132 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 14: don't give up the ship. So, as many poeople pointed out, 133 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 14: that's definitely it's not implying anything that's good. The best 134 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 14: defense you could make is they're worried Trump might make 135 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 14: an illegal order, and they're saying people should defy it. 136 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 14: But there's a very strong vibe that they are soliciting, 137 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 14: encouraging some element of defiance of the administration's. 138 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 4: Slain. Slatkin has even gone on the record saying no, 139 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 4: I'm not aware of any illegal orders. 140 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 14: So it's basically, well, they have to say that basically 141 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 14: otherwise they are actively telling them to defy orders right now. 142 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 14: But anyway, Mark Kelly, he is a retired fighter pilot, 143 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 14: but he still has I can't remember his exact role 144 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 14: with the military, but he has the ability to be recalled. 145 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 14: So essentially he is still subject to military discipline in 146 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 14: certain ways. 147 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 12: Or so the War Department says. 148 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 14: And so what we had is, first the Department of 149 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 14: War put out an official statement. 150 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 12: Let's put up one fifty five. 151 00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 14: The Department of War has received serious allegations of misconduct 152 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 14: against Captain Mark Kelly, US Navy, retired in accordance with 153 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 14: the Uniform Code of Military Justice. And there's a whole 154 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 14: long thing that they may consider action. And then Secretary 155 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 14: of War Pete Hegseth comes out and he has his 156 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 14: own tweet one fifty six. 157 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 12: The despicable video urging Department. 158 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 14: Of War troops to refuse I legal orders may seem 159 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 14: harmless to physic civilians, but it carries a different weight 160 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 14: inside the military. 161 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 12: This was and it's a very long let me let 162 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 12: me bring it up here. 163 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 14: It's not all on this sheet one moment, but he 164 00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 14: goes on to basically say that they're going to look 165 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 14: into a court martial action for all right, I've got 166 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:47,079 Speaker 14: it here, like we continue reading. This was a politically 167 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,440 Speaker 14: motivated influence operation that never named a specific legal order. 168 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 14: It created ambiguity rather than clarity. It used carefully scripted 169 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 14: legal sounding language, and it subtly reframed military obedience around 170 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:04,200 Speaker 14: partisan distrust instead of established legal doctrines in the military. 171 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:07,959 Speaker 14: Vague rhetoric and ambiguity undermine trust, create hesitation in the 172 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 14: chain of command, and erode cohesion. The military has clear 173 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,560 Speaker 14: procedures for handling unlawful orders. It does not need political 174 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:20,680 Speaker 14: actors injecting doubt. And so then he goes on in 175 00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 14: U one eight, he goes on to threaten an actual 176 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,560 Speaker 14: court martial against him. Is that a video or a photo? 177 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:31,160 Speaker 14: It looks like it's a video. Let's do one fifty eight. 178 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 7: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is threatening to court martial.

He was a captain when he retired from 188 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,439 Speaker 8: the US Navy, And they said importantly that a third 189 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 8: review of these allegations has been initiated to determine further actions, 190 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 8: which could include recall to active duty for court martial proceedings, 191 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 8: or administrative measures. 192 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:20,319 Speaker 14: So definitely if email us what you think about this 193 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:24,679 Speaker 14: pretty much Charliekirk dot com, especially because this is Arizona, Senator, Uh, 194 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 14: because I guess where do you think you're going to 195 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 14: go from here? 196 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 12: Do you think they'll go for it? 197 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 4: Andrew, Well, so I think they've given themselves an out 198 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 4: here or administrative measures, right, and so I think I 199 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 4: think what's going to happen is they're going to basically 200 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 4: try and you know, shame him into in some way, 201 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 4: shape or form, and we have to we talked about 202 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 4: this section. 203 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 12: Do you think we'll stop about I mean. 204 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 4: I mean, I don't know, but I will say shame 205 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 4: Letitia James. 206 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 12: Yeah James. 207 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 4: By the way, for those who are curious, the UCMJ 208 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 4: the Uniform Code of Military Justice. If you're wondering why 209 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 4: it only applies to Mark Kelly, which is a question 210 00:10:56,280 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 4: I had. It governs conduct for active duty member, reservists 211 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 4: and certain retirees. It does not apply to fully separated veterans, 212 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 4: those who left without retiring after twenty plus years. So 213 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 4: presumably he put in his twenty plus years retired in 214 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:14,079 Speaker 4: a full military retirement style, and therefore he's still subject. 215 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,680 Speaker 4: If you take the twenty year plus retirement from the military, 216 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 4: apparently you're still subject to the uc MJ. But yeah, 217 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 4: I mean, I think he's he's saying that there's still 218 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 4: subject to certain administrative measures. I am listen, I find 219 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 4: this to be egregious. What they did you and I 220 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 4: actually am immediately immediate reaction was it was egregious. And 221 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 4: I would also just say that there is a risk 222 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,720 Speaker 4: because I've I've been disgusted how all of them have 223 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 4: gone on social media and been I'm a victim. I'm 224 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,320 Speaker 4: a victim. I can't believe President Trump would say this 225 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:48,200 Speaker 4: about me and that he's you know, he wants me 226 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 4: to be executed. No, he was rightfully offended. He was 227 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:59,320 Speaker 4: rightfully I would say upset angered. Pod you might say, 228 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 4: which is the word I was going for? I stopped myself, 229 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:04,200 Speaker 4: but he was rightfully all of these things he put 230 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 4: on social media. He truthed that a Washington Examiner article 231 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 4: and it said that, yeah, listen, this is seditious behavior. 232 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 4: If you were found guilty of seditious behavior, then guess 233 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:17,240 Speaker 4: what one of the potential punishments is, you know, not 234 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 4: so good things, as Charlie would say, and so listen. 235 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 4: I don't think I don't think anybody is thinking that 236 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:24,959 Speaker 4: this is going here, But I do think that there 237 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 4: should be real consequences for this, save going so far 238 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 4: as to make him an actual victim. That's what we 239 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 4: have to warn for, and that's what we talked about 240 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 4: before here. If you actually make him a sympathetic figure, 241 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 4: then what they did was egregious. 242 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 12: I don't think it was egregious enough. 243 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 14: That you could bring Mark Kelly into a court martial docket, 244 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 14: have him in his uniform, sitting up rigid straight, giving speeches. 245 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 14: How I only ever, cared about serving my country, you know, 246 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 14: looking the part all cinematic, yep, and you try to 247 00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:56,079 Speaker 14: convict him of that. 248 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 12: Maybe you do. 249 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:00,120 Speaker 14: I feel the only reason to do that is if 250 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 14: you are dead certain you have good opo on Mark 251 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 14: Kelly and you want him to. 252 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 12: Be Jade Vance's twenty twenty eight opponent. Right, well, Carr 253 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:08,840 Speaker 12: is good. That would very quickly make him a front. 254 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:10,240 Speaker 4: I mean, I don't want to get into it too much, 255 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:12,320 Speaker 4: but I've just heard we are in Arizona, after all. 256 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 4: I heard there's quite a bit of opo on Mark Kelly. 257 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 4: But listen, that's I'll stop there. This is what really 258 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 4: upsets me, and this is that Elis slock In, who 259 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 4: was CIA. By the way, what's the CI really good at, Blake? Oh, 260 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,080 Speaker 4: I don't know. Destabilizing foreign governments. 261 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 12: I feel like they're pretty bad. 262 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:31,680 Speaker 4: It might be bad at it, but they think they 263 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:35,440 Speaker 4: think they're good. So here's here. This is what frustrates me. 264 00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 4: And you said that they have to say this, but 265 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 4: look at one fifty nine. Let's go ahead and play this. 266 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:42,320 Speaker 4: Cut this from the Weekend, Alissa slock In admitting that 267 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 4: Democrats lied about President Trump issuing illegal orders to the 268 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 4: military one fifty nine. 269 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:50,040 Speaker 1: Let's talk right now. 270 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 6: Do you believe President Trump has issued any illegal orders? 271 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,960 Speaker 2: To my knowledge, I am not aware of things that 272 00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 2: are illegal, but certainly there are some legal gymnastics that 273 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 2: are going on with these Caribbean strikes and everything related 274 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:05,720 Speaker 2: to Venezuela. 275 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 4: Oh, so there it is. He hasn't done anything illegal. 276 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 4: We just, out of the blue decided to throw up 277 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:16,199 Speaker 4: a flair. You might we're worried, you might he We're 278 00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 4: worried that there might be another pandemic. We're worried that 279 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 4: there might be an economic collapse. We worried about a 280 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 4: lot of things. That doesn't mean you go out and 281 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 4: make a video. I mean, this is this is This 282 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 4: is what I think has a lot of people's hair 283 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 4: on the back of their necks up. And that is 284 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 4: the fact that, out of the blue, these people just 285 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 4: did this video and they are hinting at something. There's 286 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 4: something very fishy, very underhanded going on here. You know, 287 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 4: there's there is a lot of people that are suggesting 288 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 4: that this is seating the ground for something terrible in 289 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 4: the future, or for some other sort of color revolution 290 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 4: esque action. And I think that's why we're all like 291 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 4: kind of got our attention because something isn't right here, 292 00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 4: something is very not, very much not right, and I 293 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 4: understand the reaction that are getting.

Senator Mark Kelly 355 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:15,960 Speaker 14: accused President Trump of calling for Kelly's execution. 356 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 12: I claim balderdash on that accusation. 357 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 14: As a lifelong resident of Arizona, this pathetic excuse of 358 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:27,040 Speaker 14: an elected official who is a transplant has placed an 359 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:29,680 Speaker 14: enormous stain on the great state of Arizona. We need 360 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 14: to bring Arizona back to full on red amen, Steve. 361 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:36,240 Speaker 12: We're working on that. Obviously, We're gonna keep working. 362 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, he's you know what's funny about him 363 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 4: is I look at Mark Kelly. You know he here, 364 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:43,760 Speaker 4: he is invoking the name of Charlie. You know, because 365 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 4: President Trump said, you know, he's doing seditious things. So 366 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 4: obviously one of the potential penalties is the death penalty. Okay, 367 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,879 Speaker 4: that's that's I get it. That's inflammatory, that's that's probably 368 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 4: the max that's probably not gonna out now. Grace For 369 00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:01,679 Speaker 4: him to bring up Charlie's name is I just I 370 00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 4: find it really despicable actually, And so anyways, go ahead, Grace. 371 00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 14: Well, Grace says, come on, guys, Charlie would demand we 372 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 14: arrest in charge constitutional justice. 373 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:15,520 Speaker 12: Yes to death penalty. I am calling for the military. 374 00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:19,440 Speaker 4: Here's Phyllis. Of course they should all be convicted of sedition. 375 00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:21,480 Speaker 4: They are all guilty of trying to undermine the President 376 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 4: of the United States. Nothing will happen though they are 377 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:25,639 Speaker 4: all getting away with everything. Well, I think this is 378 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,440 Speaker 4: I think, you know, I think this is why Secretary 379 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:32,679 Speaker 4: of hexseeth Is is sounding the tone that he's sounding 380 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,920 Speaker 4: is because I think there is like a genuine, fundamental 381 00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 4: just frustration within the base that these people keep getting 382 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 4: away with it. Right, We're gonna have Mike Davis on 383 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 4: in the second half of this hour. We're gonna be 384 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:46,159 Speaker 4: talking about Letsia James Comy. Looks like the DJ is 385 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:49,880 Speaker 4: going to be appealing that court case that has been 386 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 4: thrown out because of technicality basically on the legality of 387 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:58,600 Speaker 4: Lindsay Halligan's appointment as a first step. So they're going 388 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 4: to be appealing that. In general, there is a feeling 389 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 4: of frustration that some of these people, these these wrongdoers, 390 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 4: these people that have I think done illegal things and 391 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 4: it's been proven and they keep getting away with it. 392 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:12,680 Speaker 4: This is this, This is a this is a video, 393 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 4: a social media video that was designed to be provocative 394 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:18,280 Speaker 4: and cute. But the problem is the underlying message here, Blake, 395 00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 4: was that they were undermining and sowing doubt and that 396 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:22,199 Speaker 4: and by the. 397 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:25,359 Speaker 14: Way, you have to be Sedition is a dicey word 398 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 14: to use. That's as I like to point out to Charlie, 399 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:31,960 Speaker 14: Treason is defined in the Constitution. It's defined narrowly. As 400 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:34,200 Speaker 14: you know, it has to be levying war against the 401 00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:36,199 Speaker 14: United States are giving aid and comfort, and you need 402 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:37,240 Speaker 14: at least two witnesses. 403 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 12: That's all. 404 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 14: Because our founders knew English history, and in English history, 405 00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:45,439 Speaker 14: treason and sedition, you know, related laws were used a 406 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 14: lot for domestic political reasons against you know, just domestic foes. 407 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 14: And they were very worried about that. And we saw 408 00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 14: that ourselves. We saw that with January sixth, where they 409 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 14: were hunting around to bring a sedition case against President Trump, 410 00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 14: against his supporters. In the end they settled for mostly 411 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:06,200 Speaker 14: just indicting hundreds and hundreds of his followers and convicting 412 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:07,159 Speaker 14: and sending them to prison. 413 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:09,479 Speaker 12: And we were very angry at that. 414 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 14: We were very angry at that overreach and quite plausibly 415 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 14: that overreach is why Trump is president again. 416 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:16,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, overreach. 417 00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 14: There's both damage you can do to the country by 418 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:23,399 Speaker 14: really aggressively pursuing this and also damage you can do 419 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:25,520 Speaker 14: to yourself politically, and you always have to take account 420 00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 14: for that. 421 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:28,400 Speaker 4: Well, and here's what I will say. You know, when 422 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 4: you talk about overreach, there's a clip here from Mark Kelly. Listen, 423 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 4: I find Mark Kelly to be pretty pretty despicable. Actually, 424 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 4: I find I feel like I see right through Mark Kelly. 425 00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 4: I don't see the strength that other people see or 426 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 4: this like stand up serviceman that served as country. And 427 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:48,120 Speaker 4: like I said, there is an APPO file on Mark 428 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 4: Kelly in the state. But here's what's interesting. I do 429 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 4: agree with you that I'm not sure how far we 430 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:56,160 Speaker 4: want to take this fight from a political standpoint. Listen, 431 00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:58,000 Speaker 4: you and the base, you and the audience. You get 432 00:21:58,000 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 4: what he was trying to do. He's undermining the press 433 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:03,320 Speaker 4: in the United States, sewing doubt, sowing confusion. But he 434 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:04,920 Speaker 4: has this ace in the hole, and you got to 435 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:06,640 Speaker 4: you got to acknowledge it. You got it. When you're 436 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,239 Speaker 4: gonna fight a battle, you got to understand what you 437 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 4: have in your favor, what is working against you? Play 438 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 4: what one' sixty one? 439 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 9: Donald Trump called for my execution. I know a little 440 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:23,000 Speaker 9: bit about political violence. My wife, Gavin was nearly assassinated. 441 00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:25,960 Speaker 9: She was shot in the head because of political violence. 442 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:26,879 Speaker 1: She nearly died. 443 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 9: These are the kind of threats that this president makes, 444 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,200 Speaker 9: not just to me, some of my colleagues as well. 445 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:38,080 Speaker 9: Just this week he did this, threatened our lives, said 446 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:42,440 Speaker 9: we should be hanged because of something we said. 447 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 4: So he's got this trump card, if you will, and 448 00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:50,760 Speaker 4: it is what happened to his wife is is egregious, terrible. 449 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:52,720 Speaker 4: I mean, especially in the way of what happened to Charlie. 450 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 1: I get it. 451 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:56,040 Speaker 4: So you just have to be careful about the battle 452 00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 4: you're gonna fight. 453 00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:56,760 Speaker 1: Now. 454 00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 4: That's why I say listen, he's gonna get investigated. The 455 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:02,119 Speaker 4: White House is saying that they support it. You cannot 456 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:06,080 Speaker 4: have a functioning military when you have elected leaders, especially 457 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:09,320 Speaker 4: of the profile Mark Kelly and Slockin saying you know, 458 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 4: don't trust the commander in chief, right, That is sowing 459 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,639 Speaker 4: discord within the ranks. The White House is supporting of 460 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,479 Speaker 4: this investigation.

By wink wink, 545 00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 10: nod nod to eighteen year old military enlistes to decide 546 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:05,639 Speaker 10: what orders of the President of the United States, the 547 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:09,919 Speaker 10: commander in chief are lawful versus unlawful, and then to 548 00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 10: ignore what these eighteen year old en listies think are 549 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 10: in unlawful orders of the President of the United States. 550 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:20,919 Speaker 10: You cannot get more dangerous than this that is interfering 551 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 10: with the chain of commands. Mark Kelly is trying to 552 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:27,240 Speaker 10: portray himself as some noble hero. He's trying to portray 553 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:29,639 Speaker 10: himself as some victim when he got called out on it. 554 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:34,159 Speaker 10: He should absolutely get court martialed and held accountable for this. 555 00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 10: And he can raise his congressional speech speech or debate 556 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:41,720 Speaker 10: clause arguments for his defense, whatever he needs to do. 557 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:44,120 Speaker 10: But they need to make an example out of this guy. 558 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 10: There's no chance this guy is going to be the 559 00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 10: president of the United States. He's a clown and he's 560 00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 10: really he's really hurt his credibility by doing this far 561 00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 10: outside of the political circles. He's hitting real Americans in 562 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 10: real America, on political people who think it's appalling that 563 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 10: you have members of Congress calling on the military, calling 564 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:10,240 Speaker 10: on intell agencies to ignore the president of the United States. 565 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 4: You know, I tend to fall on your end of this, Mike. 566 00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 4: I think that you know, I think this was a 567 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 4: self owned by them. I think they got way out 568 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 4: over their skis. This was unsolicited. By the way, this 569 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 4: came from out of nowhere. I guess, like, yeah, it 570 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:27,480 Speaker 4: makes me argument the boat attacks. 571 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:29,680 Speaker 14: I mean, there's always one thing or another they could 572 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 14: fixate on. It just stands out to me what a 573 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:35,600 Speaker 14: dangerous escalation is. Even though I'm the squished on how 574 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 14: hard you prosecute it, we should not lowball how bad 575 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 14: it was that they did this, how dangerous it is, 576 00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 14: and how they are egging on a destructive thing. And 577 00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 14: one reason I am wary of prosecuting him is I'm thinking, 578 00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:50,480 Speaker 14: if they actually induce members of the military to try 579 00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,080 Speaker 14: doing this, to try defying the president, you need to 580 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 14: make sure you are in the strongest political position possible 581 00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 14: to defend against what would basically be a coupdeta. 582 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:02,520 Speaker 10: I love the Fox News. I learned a Fox News 583 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 10: piece on this, Andrew, and I point this out. If 584 00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:09,080 Speaker 10: if the Supreme Court of the United States, the Trump 585 00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:11,520 Speaker 10: administration is going to the Supreme Court of the United 586 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 10: States on the emergency docket, and they are getting the 587 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:19,320 Speaker 10: smartest lawyers and judges at the lower court level reversed 588 00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:21,600 Speaker 10: by the Supreme Court with like a ninety one or 589 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 10: ninety two percent reversal rate. If these very smart Harvard 590 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 10: lawyers and judges at the district or the appellate court 591 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 10: level are getting the law wrong and the Supreme Court 592 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:34,720 Speaker 10: has to fix this ninety two for some of the time, 593 00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 10: how the hell do we expect eighteen year old military 594 00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:40,240 Speaker 10: enlistees to figure out what the law is? 595 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:40,960 Speaker 4: At what point? 596 00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 10: I mean we have to have if you are in 597 00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 10: the military, you have to follow the President of the 598 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:51,040 Speaker 10: United States on every order. And I can think of 599 00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 10: a time, for example, during Vietnam where there was a 600 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:59,480 Speaker 10: military officer who ordered the mass murder of the Vietnamese 601 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:03,440 Speaker 10: burned down the villages. That would be at the military 602 00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 10: commander level where you would say, I can't do this 603 00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:10,760 Speaker 10: because this is clearly a war crime. This is you're 604 00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 10: raping and killing children, women, children. You can't do this. 605 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:17,960 Speaker 10: That's very clear. When you're dealing with the president of 606 00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:20,680 Speaker 10: the United States, you better follow every order of the 607 00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:24,400 Speaker 10: President of the United States unless you are goddamn sure 608 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 10: it is wrong. For example, when President Trump ordered the 609 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 10: strike on the Iranian nuclear facility, are you going to 610 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:37,320 Speaker 10: have some military officer or military unist He's saying, sorry, 611 00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:40,239 Speaker 10: I can't do this strike. I'm going to expose this 612 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 10: ongoing military operation because I don't think President Trump has 613 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:48,400 Speaker 10: the lawful authority to take out this Iranian nuclear facility. 614 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 10: This is a very dangerous game these politicians are playing, 615 00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:56,280 Speaker 10: and Mark Kelly not only should be ashamed, if he's 616 00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 10: capable of shame, he should be held accountable for this. 617 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 1: Well. 618 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 4: You know what, this reminds me of Mike as well 619 00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:06,800 Speaker 4: and Blake. It kind of reminds me of what Vinman 620 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:09,840 Speaker 4: did to Trump. Right. It was it was basically this 621 00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:13,720 Speaker 4: inside out. Oh I we got this phone call and 622 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 4: guess what he was abusing his power with holding military 623 00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 4: aid for political game. Right, and then all of a sudden, 624 00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:23,160 Speaker 4: you know, Trump's Trump's in the throes of all this chaos. 625 00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 4: It undermines the entire UH term in so many ways. 626 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:30,360 Speaker 4: It does. It's it's such a slippery slope because if 627 00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:33,440 Speaker 4: you can start alleging that the president has done something 628 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:36,880 Speaker 4: illegal when you when he has given broad authority to 629 00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 4: command the armed forces you could basically nitpick anything and 630 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:45,280 Speaker 4: start pulling away all authority from the executive branch to 631 00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:47,160 Speaker 4: command the military, and then you you do have the 632 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:50,080 Speaker 4: third worlding of the American military where they would lead 633 00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 4: a military junta, where it would be a coupde'eta. 634 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 10: Let me ask you this. Let me these democrats who 635 00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 10: pretend like they care about President Trump using the military, 636 00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 10: which what they think is unlawfully. President Obama ordered an 637 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:09,320 Speaker 10: extra judicial drone strike on two Americans, on several American citizens, 638 00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 10: including a minor. I fully supported that drone strike of Obama, 639 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:16,920 Speaker 10: but there is doubt whether that was legal or not. 640 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:19,800 Speaker 10: You have David Barron, who's now a judge on the 641 00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:23,040 Speaker 10: First Circuit Court of Appeals, who was running the Office 642 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:26,160 Speaker 10: of Legal Counsel in the Justice Department at the time. 643 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:30,520 Speaker 10: OLC is the one that decides whether executive branch actions 644 00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:34,080 Speaker 10: are lawful or unlawful. Within the executive branch, of course, 645 00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:38,160 Speaker 10: judges ultimately decide, But it was Judge David Baron who 646 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:42,120 Speaker 10: told President Obama that he had the lawful authority to 647 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:47,040 Speaker 10: order a drone strike on American citizens, including a minor 648 00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:52,880 Speaker 10: extra judicial killings. Was that legal? Was that illegal? That's 649 00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 10: up for debate. But you certainly don't want these drone officers, 650 00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 10: these drone operators in the military to say, you know, 651 00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 10: I just can't do this. I just I don't think 652 00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:06,360 Speaker 10: that President Obama was being lawful here, so I can't 653 00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:09,319 Speaker 10: do this. Those people would be court martialed, they would 654 00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:11,440 Speaker 10: be thrown in the brig and that's exactly what should 655 00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:16,560 Speaker 10: happen to Senator Mark Kelly for pushing this very dangerous 656 00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:19,439 Speaker 10: game that they're playing because they don't like Trump. 657 00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:20,360 Speaker 12: Into the brig. 658 00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:23,480 Speaker 4: Well, I mean it's hard to run for president. 659 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,359 Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean we were talking about if Trump would 660 00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:26,600 Speaker 12: have to time. 661 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:30,360 Speaker 4: I remember that. Listen, Mike. I tend to agree. I 662 00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 4: think there needs to be pretty stern consequences here, so 663 00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 4: I'm very sympathetic to your argument. I do think that, 664 00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 4: you know, the punishment has to fit the crime here, 665 00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:41,160 Speaker 4: and I think it's a pretty egregious crime. I'm open 666 00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:43,920 Speaker 4: minded to an administrative solution here. I don't want to 667 00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:46,759 Speaker 4: create a victim out of this guy. But you know, 668 00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:49,839 Speaker 4: at the same time, I just like I am in 669 00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:53,799 Speaker 4: this moment having flashbacks to Vinman. I'm literally having flashbacks 670 00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:56,319 Speaker 4: because this is a slippery slope. This is the Third 671 00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:58,719 Speaker 4: worlding of the US military. I want to change our 672 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:02,160 Speaker 4: attention here to the news that broke yesterday that James 673 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:05,200 Speaker 4: Comey and Letitia James that a judge had thrown out 674 00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:08,840 Speaker 4: the case basically based on procedural issues, with Lindsay Halligan 675 00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:12,520 Speaker 4: so saying that she was not lawfully appointed to her position. 676 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,160 Speaker 4: That now I'll play this clip. This is a G 677 00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:17,759 Speaker 4: Pam BONDI saying, you know, we're gonna appeal this right away. 678 00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:18,680 Speaker 4: One ninety. 679 00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:24,359 Speaker 3: Sure, We'll be taking all available legal action, including an 680 00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:29,080 Speaker 3: immediate appeal, to hold Letitia James and James Comey accountable 681 00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:32,239 Speaker 3: for their unlawful conduct. I'm going to keep going on this. 682 00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:36,359 Speaker 3: You know, I'm not worried about someone who has been 683 00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:41,040 Speaker 3: charged with a very serious crime. His alleged actions were 684 00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:43,040 Speaker 3: a betrayal of public trust. 685 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 4: And James Comy's already taken a victory lap. Maybe should 686 00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:51,319 Speaker 4: pumped the brakes, as Caroline Levitt says, but one ninety five, 687 00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:52,280 Speaker 4: and this is James Comy. 688 00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:56,560 Speaker 21: The message has to be sent that the President of 689 00:35:56,600 --> 00:36:00,200 Speaker 21: the United States cannot use the Department of Justice to 690 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:04,319 Speaker 21: target his political enemies. I don't care what your politics are. 691 00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:08,200 Speaker 21: You have to see that as fundamentally Unamerican and a 692 00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:09,960 Speaker 21: threat to the rule of law that keeps all of 693 00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:13,080 Speaker 21: us free. I know that Donald Trump will probably come 694 00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:15,320 Speaker 21: after me again, and my attitude is going to be 695 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:19,480 Speaker 21: the same. I'm innocent, I am not afraid, and I 696 00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:24,000 Speaker 21: believe in an independent federal judiciary, the gift from our 697 00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 21: founders that protects us from a would be tyrant. 698 00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:29,320 Speaker 4: Would be tired. 699 00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:31,839 Speaker 1: It is. 700 00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:34,520 Speaker 12: They can't stop acting like they're in a movie. 701 00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:38,080 Speaker 4: It's this virtue signaling holier than that, Mike Davis. 702 00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:43,400 Speaker 10: It's worse that James Comy got charged with lying to 703 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:48,640 Speaker 10: Congress and obstruction of a congressional investigation for the very 704 00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:53,440 Speaker 10: thing he's complaining about. He politicized and weaponized intel agencies 705 00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:57,759 Speaker 10: and law enforcement with the Russian collusion hoax with Crossfire 706 00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:02,000 Speaker 10: Hurricane to take out President Trump, his political enemy. He 707 00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:06,800 Speaker 10: got caught lying about it. The prior interim US attorney 708 00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,799 Speaker 10: was a giant whimp and didn't bring charge the same 709 00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:13,640 Speaker 10: with Letitia James with their mortgage fraud, and so Lindsay 710 00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:17,759 Speaker 10: Halligan went in there, found the evidence, took it to 711 00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:21,640 Speaker 10: a grand jury, a Democrat controlled grand jury in Alexandria, 712 00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:26,320 Speaker 10: Virginia outside of Washington, DC, and even this Democrat grand 713 00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:30,439 Speaker 10: jury found probable cause on both James Commey for lying 714 00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:33,920 Speaker 10: to Congress and an obstruction of a congressional investigation, and 715 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:37,680 Speaker 10: against Big Tiss James, the New York Attorney General who 716 00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:41,480 Speaker 10: lied about having a second home in Virginia to get 717 00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:44,000 Speaker 10: a better mortgage rate when it was an investment property. 718 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:48,960 Speaker 10: The grand jury returned these indictments. Then you had this Democrats. 719 00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:53,560 Speaker 10: Obama chief judge of the Fourth Circuit picked a Clinton 720 00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:58,040 Speaker 10: judge in South Carolina to come in and to dismiss 721 00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:02,360 Speaker 10: these indictments, and they dismissed these indictments on the incorrect 722 00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:06,560 Speaker 10: legal grounds. They essentially argue that the courts, after one 723 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:10,200 Speaker 10: hundred and twenty days, the courts, instead of the President 724 00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:12,799 Speaker 10: of the United States or his Attorney general, get to 725 00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:15,880 Speaker 10: decide who the chief law enforcement officer is the US 726 00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:19,839 Speaker 10: attorney in these districts. That is an incorrect reading of 727 00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:23,360 Speaker 10: the statute. It's a dangerous reading of the statute because 728 00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:27,160 Speaker 10: you don't have accountability. You don't have prosecutors who are 729 00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:31,560 Speaker 10: accountable to the American people through their duly elected president 730 00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:35,239 Speaker 10: of the United States. You have prosecutors who are picked 731 00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:40,400 Speaker 10: by Democrat judges and Democrat hellholes like the DC suburbs 732 00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:43,960 Speaker 10: or New Jersey to protect their political allies and go 733 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:47,799 Speaker 10: after their political friends. The Supreme Court will fix this, 734 00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:52,240 Speaker 10: and in the meantime, the Attorney General has many different 735 00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:56,280 Speaker 10: tools to bring accountability for both Big Tish and James Comey, 736 00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:59,960 Speaker 10: including indictments in the Southern District of Florida. 737 00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:03,360 Speaker 4: Well said Mike Davis. More, We're gonna talk Ai in 738 00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:06,000 Speaker 4: the next segment with Mike Davis. Big moves happening on 739 00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:07,800 Speaker 4: that front. First, I want to tell you about TikTok. 740 00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:11,799 Speaker 4: TikTok is a place where powerful dialogues and conversations and 741 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:15,759 Speaker 4: communities can happen. Charlie, believe that billions and billions of 742 00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:18,640 Speaker 4: views on that platform, lots of young people came to 743 00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:23,080 Speaker 4: appreciate this country, our freedoms, our God given freedoms on 744 00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:27,200 Speaker 4: that platform. I was shocked, but I've seen it firsthand. 745 00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:30,320 Speaker 4: Trust me. You'll see a teacher simplifying a tough lesson 746 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:33,000 Speaker 4: so it finally clicks, or gardener sharing a trick that's 747 00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:35,240 Speaker 4: saved their crop. But what matters most isn't the video 748 00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:38,200 Speaker 4: it's not the original post of what comes what comes next, 749 00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:41,640 Speaker 4: the conversation, the back and forth. That's what listening does. 750 00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:43,440 Speaker 4: It reminds us that we're not as different as we 751 00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:46,480 Speaker 4: maybe think we are. That's what makes TikTok so so powerful. 752 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,440 Speaker 4: Our friends at TikTok support this show. Thank you to them. 753 00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:50,280 Speaker 4: We'll be right back. 754 00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:03,799 Speaker 19: Letting everyone socialism sucks. The Charley Kirk Show. 755 00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:07,799 Speaker 4: All right, there is a clip here. It is Thanksgiving 756 00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:10,360 Speaker 4: week and I was gonna do this next hour. I 757 00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:14,839 Speaker 4: might do it next hour anyways, but there is a 758 00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:18,240 Speaker 4: clip that Charlie always used to play about Rush Limbaugh 759 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:21,680 Speaker 4: and Thanksgiving and oh, I don't have enough time. Never mind, 760 00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:24,520 Speaker 4: it's an out.

It's so good. 763 00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:33,720 Speaker 4: It's an amazing Rush. Rush loves Thanksgiving. He loved the country, 764 00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:35,520 Speaker 4: and Charlie loved Rush, and he loved the way that 765 00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:37,160 Speaker 4: he would talk about it. But I do want to 766 00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:38,560 Speaker 4: get to it hour two.

I have a lot of questions. Mike. We 781 00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:19,000 Speaker 4: welcome back national radio. In about five seconds, we'll be 782 00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:34,600 Speaker 4: right back. All right, Welcome back to the Charlie Kirk 783 00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:37,040 Speaker 4: Show radio stations across the country. We are joined by 784 00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:40,960 Speaker 4: Mike Davis. Okay, so Article three Project Mike Davis. There 785 00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:42,920 Speaker 4: is a back and forth going on. I mean it's 786 00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:45,960 Speaker 4: first flared up during the one Big Beautiful Bill about 787 00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:51,640 Speaker 4: this moratorium on states putting any putting forth any regulation. 788 00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:54,560 Speaker 4: So at that time we brought in Stephen Miller. Steven 789 00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:57,120 Speaker 4: and Charlie had a big conversation about it ended up 790 00:41:57,160 --> 00:42:00,759 Speaker 4: going viral, and it was about this idea of cant 791 00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:04,880 Speaker 4: states like California or New York issue regulations when it 792 00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:08,319 Speaker 4: comes to AI, and basically was saying we don't want 793 00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:10,040 Speaker 4: them to do that. We don't want the woke states, 794 00:42:10,080 --> 00:42:12,680 Speaker 4: the Democrat led states, to be leading the charge on this. 795 00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:16,160 Speaker 4: You disagree with this position. Now lawmakers are once again 796 00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:19,960 Speaker 4: trying to stuff it into the NDAA. I believe, so, Mike, 797 00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:22,240 Speaker 4: give us your perspective on it. I'm all ears. 798 00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:26,319 Speaker 10: No, I don't necessarily disagree with Steven Miller on the 799 00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:29,719 Speaker 10: need for a federal standard for AI. I guess it's 800 00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:33,120 Speaker 10: the tech companies are the only companies in America who 801 00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:37,000 Speaker 10: think they need federal preemption. But I'm not necessarily opposed 802 00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:40,480 Speaker 10: to federal preemption. They're not asking for federal preemption with 803 00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:43,680 Speaker 10: federal rules of the road. They're asking for AI amnesty 804 00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:47,520 Speaker 10: like they did with Section two thirty back in nineteen 805 00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:51,719 Speaker 10: ninety six, where these small tech platforms had Section two 806 00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:55,279 Speaker 10: thirty amnesty and then anti trust amnesty, and then we 807 00:42:55,400 --> 00:43:00,360 Speaker 10: got Google, Amazon, Facebook, and Apple that crush competition, shutter 808 00:43:00,400 --> 00:43:04,759 Speaker 10: small businesses, and cancel conservatives and others with whom we disagree. 809 00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:08,680 Speaker 10: We can't repeat the mistakes of section two thirty with AI, 810 00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:12,120 Speaker 10: and so I understand that we need to be competitive 811 00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:14,840 Speaker 10: across the world and compete with China and compete with 812 00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:19,279 Speaker 10: other adversaries, but we also need federal rules of the road. 813 00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:21,440 Speaker 10: If we're going to have federal preemption so state and 814 00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:27,000 Speaker 10: local governments cannot touch AI for example, I call this 815 00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:31,200 Speaker 10: the four c's. Are we going to have protections for 816 00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:36,840 Speaker 10: children from online abuse? Are we going to have protections 817 00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:43,160 Speaker 10: for conservatives so we don't get canceled by these AI platforms. 818 00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 10: Are we going to have protections for communities so we 819 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:50,120 Speaker 10: make sure that we don't, for example, jack up the 820 00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:54,360 Speaker 10: water and electricity prices and these small communities so the 821 00:43:54,440 --> 00:43:57,839 Speaker 10: working class have to foot the bill for these AI 822 00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:01,680 Speaker 10: data centers that can do them all this water and electricity. 823 00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:06,200 Speaker 10: Are we going to have zoning protections in communities so 824 00:44:06,239 --> 00:44:10,040 Speaker 10: we don't put AI data centers in the middle of neighborhoods. 825 00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:13,880 Speaker 10: These big tech oligarchs, the AI bros, say no, that 826 00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:17,680 Speaker 10: they should have full amnesty from state and local and 827 00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:20,400 Speaker 10: then no federal rules of the road so they can 828 00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:22,960 Speaker 10: just do whatever the hell they want like they did 829 00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:25,840 Speaker 10: on section two thirty. And my response to that is 830 00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:30,480 Speaker 10: hell no. Why would we let Meta for example, and 831 00:44:30,520 --> 00:44:34,359 Speaker 10: Google for example, who hate us as conservatives, run us 832 00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:40,240 Speaker 10: over and make trillions of dollars on the backs of conservatives, children, 833 00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:43,640 Speaker 10: content creators, and communities. If you're not going to protect 834 00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:46,879 Speaker 10: the four c's. They don't have sixty votes to get 835 00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:51,359 Speaker 10: this done. They thought they had sixty votes four months ago, 836 00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:53,360 Speaker 10: at the end of June, at the beginning of July, 837 00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:55,880 Speaker 10: they thought this thing was going to pass and must 838 00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:59,920 Speaker 10: pass legislation. And then the Article three project kicked into 839 00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:02,600 Speaker 10: gear and it went down ninety nine to one, including 840 00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:05,839 Speaker 10: the lead sponsor, Ted Cruz, voting against his own bill. 841 00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:08,080 Speaker 10: I would I'll tell the AI pros the same thing. 842 00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:10,400 Speaker 10: If you try to do this again, we'll kick your 843 00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:13,440 Speaker 10: butts again. And if you need, if you're gonna get 844 00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:15,759 Speaker 10: sixty votes, you're gonna protect the four seats. 845 00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:19,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, this is a Trump truth Social one sixty nine. 846 00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:22,799 Speaker 4: He says, you know, investment in AI is helping to 847 00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:26,560 Speaker 4: make the US economy the hottest in the world. This 848 00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:29,480 Speaker 4: is image one to sixty nine. Thanks guys, But over 849 00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:32,040 Speaker 4: regulation by the states is threatening to undermine this growth. 850 00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:35,799 Speaker 4: Some states are even trying to embed DEI ideology into 851 00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:39,879 Speaker 4: AI models producing wo AI. Remember Black George Washington, we 852 00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:42,880 Speaker 4: must have one federal standard instead of a patchwork of 853 00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:47,000 Speaker 4: fifty state regulatory regimes. So I actually, by the way, 854 00:45:47,040 --> 00:45:48,799 Speaker 4: in the final line there, Mikey says, we can do 855 00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:51,040 Speaker 4: this in a way that protects children and prevents censorship. 856 00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:55,800 Speaker 4: So is the middle ground here spearheading a federal effort 857 00:45:55,800 --> 00:45:59,320 Speaker 4: to make sure that we have AI a regulatory regime 858 00:45:59,680 --> 00:46:01,640 Speaker 4: at the federal level so we don't have this patchwork. 859 00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:03,040 Speaker 4: It sounds like you're open minded to that. 860 00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:07,000 Speaker 10: Yeah, and I'm and I'm working with the President and 861 00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:09,359 Speaker 10: the Vice President and their teams on that right now. 862 00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:15,000 Speaker 10: But they're going to protect children, conservatives, communities, and creators 863 00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:16,919 Speaker 10: or they're not going to get this done. It's very 864 00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:20,759 Speaker 10: easy to go on conservative media and get people to 865 00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:24,160 Speaker 10: light up their two home state senators and their US 866 00:46:24,160 --> 00:46:26,640 Speaker 10: House rep and then all of a sudden, this AI 867 00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:28,480 Speaker 10: am to see that they think they're going to jam 868 00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:31,959 Speaker 10: through at four o'clock in the morning goes down ninety 869 00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:33,719 Speaker 10: nine to one. So if they want to play this 870 00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:36,000 Speaker 10: game again, I'll kick their asses again. 871 00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:38,560 Speaker 4: So I'm convinced. I'm convinced, Mike. I think you're right. 872 00:46:38,600 --> 00:46:40,520 Speaker 4: I think there's I think there's some money involved in 873 00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:42,960 Speaker 4: some of this push to keep getting this bill that 874 00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:45,440 Speaker 4: went down in flames back into the NDAA. I think 875 00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:47,279 Speaker 4: you're right. I think we need to scrap it. I 876 00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:50,480 Speaker 4: think we need to get it into federal federal level. 877 00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:52,640 Speaker 4: I think that's the key here. I think, because we 878 00:46:52,680 --> 00:46:53,560 Speaker 4: can't do as. 879 00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:55,560 Speaker 14: He says, you know, if it's content creators, get your 880 00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:56,480 Speaker 14: pound of flesh out of it. 881 00:46:56,600 --> 00:46:59,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly, Mike Davis Article three project.

Take a moment today to be grateful that 1032 00:54:10,560 --> 00:54:12,480 Speaker 4: we did it by God's grace alone. We took our 1033 00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:17,520 Speaker 4: country back Psalm one to eighteen, verse one. So Bill, 1034 00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:21,680 Speaker 4: let's start with you. I'm in Charlie's honor. I am 1035 00:54:21,719 --> 00:54:25,360 Speaker 4: all about evangelizing the love of this holiday and the 1036 00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:29,759 Speaker 4: uniqueness to the American spirit it represents. Tell us what 1037 00:54:29,880 --> 00:54:31,880 Speaker 4: makes Thanksgiving unique and so special? 1038 00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:39,239 Speaker 6: Well, that America is an experiment of people ruling ourselves. 1039 00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:42,880 Speaker 6: So one of the things I did was go back 1040 00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:45,960 Speaker 6: and research every single century of recorded human history to 1041 00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:47,880 Speaker 6: try to find out what the most common form of 1042 00:54:47,960 --> 00:54:51,880 Speaker 6: government is. And it's gangs, and a gang leader with 1043 00:54:51,960 --> 00:54:54,200 Speaker 6: enough weapons we call a king or a federal or 1044 00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:57,240 Speaker 6: a caesar, kaiser sultans are and these kingdoms keep getting 1045 00:54:57,280 --> 00:55:00,160 Speaker 6: bigger because with the latest military advancement, kings can kill 1046 00:55:00,200 --> 00:55:03,880 Speaker 6: more people. So finally, the King of England had the 1047 00:55:03,880 --> 00:55:06,000 Speaker 6: biggest empire on planet Earth. The sun never set on 1048 00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:07,880 Speaker 6: the British Empire. He was a globalist, he was a 1049 00:55:07,880 --> 00:55:10,160 Speaker 6: one world government guy. And America faunters broke way and 1050 00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:12,799 Speaker 6: flipped it and made up people the king right, it's 1051 00:55:12,800 --> 00:55:14,400 Speaker 6: a polarity change and the flow of powered. 1052 00:55:15,040 --> 00:55:16,440 Speaker 1: But we zoom in on the Pilgrims. 1053 00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:20,719 Speaker 6: Why well, they were the ones that had the Mayflower Compact, 1054 00:55:20,719 --> 00:55:23,680 Speaker 6: this idea of people ruling themselves. So at the time 1055 00:55:23,719 --> 00:55:28,720 Speaker 6: the Pilgrims were founding America, you had Chinese emperors, Japanese emperors, 1056 00:55:28,760 --> 00:55:32,560 Speaker 6: Korean emperors, Indian maharaja Raja means king, Maha means great, 1057 00:55:32,640 --> 00:55:36,840 Speaker 6: Russian czars, Mongolian Khans, African chieftains, kings of Spain, France. 1058 00:55:36,640 --> 00:55:38,560 Speaker 1: And the whole world's basically kings. 1059 00:55:38,600 --> 00:55:41,840 Speaker 6: And here you have these little Christians starting their own community. 1060 00:55:42,880 --> 00:55:46,439 Speaker 6: So one overlooked thing is they got their idea from 1061 00:55:46,560 --> 00:55:49,480 Speaker 6: ancient Israel that first four hundred years out of Egypt 1062 00:55:49,560 --> 00:55:50,600 Speaker 6: before they got a king. 1063 00:55:51,080 --> 00:55:52,640 Speaker 1: So around fourteen hundred BC you. 1064 00:55:52,600 --> 00:55:54,680 Speaker 6: Have the Israelites, millions of them come out of Egypt 1065 00:55:54,760 --> 00:55:57,480 Speaker 6: and for fourth centuries no king, to total anomaly in 1066 00:55:57,520 --> 00:56:00,120 Speaker 6: world history that we don't appreciate it, but when when 1067 00:56:00,120 --> 00:56:02,879 Speaker 6: you study it, it worked because everybody's taught the law 1068 00:56:02,880 --> 00:56:06,160 Speaker 6: and everybody's personally accountable to God to follow it. It 1069 00:56:06,280 --> 00:56:10,560 Speaker 6: worked for four centuries until the priests went woke. By priests, 1070 00:56:10,520 --> 00:56:11,239 Speaker 6: they stopped. 1071 00:56:10,920 --> 00:56:13,560 Speaker 1: Teaching the law, and every month and you got Eli. 1072 00:56:13,640 --> 00:56:15,719 Speaker 6: The high priest's own sons are sleeping with women in 1073 00:56:15,719 --> 00:56:17,480 Speaker 6: the very tent where the ark of the Covenant is 1074 00:56:17,719 --> 00:56:18,319 Speaker 6: in this line. 1075 00:56:18,320 --> 00:56:19,839 Speaker 1: Every man does what's right in their own eyes. 1076 00:56:19,840 --> 00:56:21,560 Speaker 6: Why couse a priest stop teaching was right in the 1077 00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:24,239 Speaker 6: lord's eyes turns into chaos. They asked for a king 1078 00:56:24,239 --> 00:56:26,480 Speaker 6: and they get King Saul. Why is this story important? 1079 00:56:26,520 --> 00:56:28,800 Speaker 6: The kings of Europe looked to the Bible for their authority, 1080 00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:31,279 Speaker 6: but they look to the King Saul, and after and 1081 00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:33,719 Speaker 6: the Pilgrims and Puritans it founded New England looked to 1082 00:56:33,760 --> 00:56:35,759 Speaker 6: the pre King Saul part of the Bible. Both of 1083 00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:37,840 Speaker 6: them are looking at the Bible. One's King Saul and 1084 00:56:37,920 --> 00:56:40,080 Speaker 6: after and the ones before. So that's why they taught 1085 00:56:40,080 --> 00:56:41,520 Speaker 6: Hebrew at Yale and Harvard. 1086 00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:42,399 Speaker 1: And so this. 1087 00:56:42,440 --> 00:56:45,880 Speaker 6: Little congregation they were going to go to Jamestown submit 1088 00:56:45,920 --> 00:56:48,280 Speaker 6: to the King's government. They got blown off course land 1089 00:56:48,280 --> 00:56:51,960 Speaker 6: on the shores of Massachusetts, and the captain says, get 1090 00:56:51,960 --> 00:56:53,320 Speaker 6: off the boat, and they go who's going to be 1091 00:56:53,360 --> 00:56:55,600 Speaker 6: in charge? There's no king appointed person in our little 1092 00:56:55,600 --> 00:56:57,759 Speaker 6: group one hundred and two of us. Nobody's been picked 1093 00:56:57,760 --> 00:56:59,799 Speaker 6: by the king. They do something unique. They take their 1094 00:56:59,800 --> 00:57:02,839 Speaker 6: life covenant church, former government and they make it their 1095 00:57:03,000 --> 00:57:05,880 Speaker 6: civil governments, called the Mayflower Compact. We and need presidents 1096 00:57:05,880 --> 00:57:09,200 Speaker 6: of God covenant ourselves together into a civil body politic. 1097 00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:12,920 Speaker 6: That was the model. And then then the next decade 1098 00:57:13,000 --> 00:57:15,600 Speaker 6: you have what's called the Great Puritan Migration. Twenty thousand 1099 00:57:15,600 --> 00:57:18,160 Speaker 6: Puritans fled into New England, and you have pastors and 1100 00:57:18,240 --> 00:57:21,880 Speaker 6: churches founding cities. So Pastor of Roger Williams and the 1101 00:57:21,880 --> 00:57:24,440 Speaker 6: first Baptist Church founds the city of Providence, Rhoe Island, 1102 00:57:24,640 --> 00:57:27,640 Speaker 6: Reverend Thomas Hooker, and the first Congregational church founds the 1103 00:57:27,640 --> 00:57:31,680 Speaker 6: city of Hartford, Connecticut. This is unique on planet Earth 1104 00:57:32,040 --> 00:57:33,640 Speaker 6: when the whole world's ruled by kings and you got 1105 00:57:33,680 --> 00:57:37,280 Speaker 6: pastors and churches founding cities and anyway. 1106 00:57:37,280 --> 00:57:39,400 Speaker 1: So that's why we look at the Pilgrims. And the 1107 00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:42,800 Speaker 1: word federal is Latin for covenant. 1108 00:57:43,560 --> 00:57:45,880 Speaker 6: We have a covenant former government in America that can 1109 00:57:45,920 --> 00:57:49,040 Speaker 6: be traced back to these Pilgrims. 1110 00:57:49,280 --> 00:57:53,440 Speaker 4: I love that. And doctor Jerry Newcombe, you know, you 1111 00:57:54,160 --> 00:57:57,480 Speaker 4: run the Providence Forum and your your whole mission is 1112 00:57:57,520 --> 00:57:59,560 Speaker 4: to bring back to jay of Christian values to the 1113 00:57:59,640 --> 00:58:02,280 Speaker 4: United States, make much of them. And you have a 1114 00:58:02,360 --> 00:58:05,880 Speaker 4: place here, you know it's you say an article here 1115 00:58:05,880 --> 00:58:09,520 Speaker 4: on your website America's First Thanksgiving. You're talking about this 1116 00:58:09,560 --> 00:58:13,480 Speaker 4: First Thanksgiving the bill just alluded to, and you say 1117 00:58:13,520 --> 00:58:16,960 Speaker 4: that it's an annual reminder of our nations Christians roots 1118 00:58:16,960 --> 00:58:19,400 Speaker 4: and our godly heritage. I do believe this nation is 1119 00:58:19,400 --> 00:58:23,280 Speaker 4: providentially founded. When you look to the First Thanksgiving, you 1120 00:58:23,280 --> 00:58:25,800 Speaker 4: look to the story that's uniquely American. What stands out 1121 00:58:25,840 --> 00:58:28,880 Speaker 4: to you that you want to call attention to for 1122 00:58:29,360 --> 00:58:31,640 Speaker 4: the twenty twenty five that are modern Americans. 1123 00:58:33,400 --> 00:58:38,920 Speaker 27: Well, how much suffering the Pilgrims endured just for the 1124 00:58:39,000 --> 00:58:41,640 Speaker 27: sake of the goal to be able to worship Jesus 1125 00:58:41,720 --> 00:58:44,560 Speaker 27: Christ and the purity of the conscience and be left alone. 1126 00:58:45,040 --> 00:58:48,280 Speaker 27: When they started in England, it was a small little church. 1127 00:58:48,440 --> 00:58:53,400 Speaker 27: The Pilgrims were basically one particular congregation that managed to 1128 00:58:54,200 --> 00:58:57,600 Speaker 27: when they began in a place in the Midlands in England, 1129 00:58:57,680 --> 00:59:00,280 Speaker 27: about one hundred and fifty miles north of London, it 1130 00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:05,320 Speaker 27: was all secret, it was illegal, and so eventually they decided, hey, 1131 00:59:05,440 --> 00:59:08,040 Speaker 27: we could be tolerated at least in Holland, so they 1132 00:59:08,080 --> 00:59:11,040 Speaker 27: were able to migrate that even there that wasn't an 1133 00:59:11,040 --> 00:59:13,760 Speaker 27: easy thing to do, and then eventually about ten years later, 1134 00:59:13,840 --> 00:59:15,439 Speaker 27: they were able to come to. 1135 00:59:15,440 --> 00:59:16,280 Speaker 13: The New World. 1136 00:59:16,320 --> 00:59:18,800 Speaker 27: But through it all they were suffering, and in fact, 1137 00:59:18,880 --> 00:59:23,240 Speaker 27: in the book called a Plymouth Plantation, which their main leader, 1138 00:59:23,600 --> 00:59:27,440 Speaker 27: Governor William Bradford, wrote, he said, at the very beginning, 1139 00:59:27,520 --> 00:59:30,040 Speaker 27: it is well known unto the godly, However, since the 1140 00:59:30,120 --> 00:59:33,200 Speaker 27: first breaking out of the light of the Gospel in 1141 00:59:33,240 --> 00:59:37,280 Speaker 27: our honorable nation of England, Satan has raised, maintained and 1142 00:59:37,320 --> 00:59:42,520 Speaker 27: continued wars and oppositions against the Saints. And so they 1143 00:59:42,680 --> 00:59:47,840 Speaker 27: suffered one hindrance and persecution after another. But they went 1144 00:59:47,960 --> 00:59:51,280 Speaker 27: forward with their goal and when they finally got to 1145 00:59:51,320 --> 00:59:54,280 Speaker 27: the New World and they wrote the Mayflower Compact that 1146 00:59:54,320 --> 00:59:57,320 Speaker 27: Bill Federer was talking about, which was the first. 1147 00:59:57,040 --> 00:59:59,720 Speaker 13: Beginning of what would become the. 1148 01:00:00,200 --> 01:00:02,919 Speaker 27: And constitutional process, you know, the one hundred and fifty 1149 01:00:03,000 --> 01:00:06,840 Speaker 27: years later, the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution 1150 01:00:06,920 --> 01:00:09,640 Speaker 27: would flow out of the same ideas of self rule 1151 01:00:10,000 --> 01:00:13,680 Speaker 27: under God that were written down there right in the 1152 01:00:13,720 --> 01:00:15,360 Speaker 27: cabin of the Mayflower. 1153 01:00:15,520 --> 01:00:17,440 Speaker 13: I mean, this is amazing stuff. 1154 01:00:17,440 --> 01:00:20,400 Speaker 27: But they said, we came, you know, for the glory 1155 01:00:20,440 --> 01:00:23,880 Speaker 27: of God and the advancement of the Christian faith. And 1156 01:00:23,960 --> 01:00:28,280 Speaker 27: so when they finally were here, despite one hindrance and 1157 01:00:28,360 --> 01:00:31,080 Speaker 27: one setback after another, including the fact that half their 1158 01:00:31,160 --> 01:00:35,680 Speaker 27: number died that first winter when the harvest came in 1159 01:00:35,960 --> 01:00:40,080 Speaker 27: sixteen twenty one, they set aside time to give thanks 1160 01:00:40,160 --> 01:00:45,200 Speaker 27: to God in all circumstances. And later on when they 1161 01:00:45,200 --> 01:00:49,160 Speaker 27: would celebrate Thanksgiving, because they had gone through this period 1162 01:00:49,200 --> 01:00:53,160 Speaker 27: of starvation where the daily ration for each person would 1163 01:00:53,200 --> 01:00:57,400 Speaker 27: only be about five kernels of corn, they would sometimes 1164 01:00:57,640 --> 01:01:01,520 Speaker 27: take their thanksgiving plate this is a later times of prosperity, 1165 01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:04,440 Speaker 27: and they would put five little colonels of corn on 1166 01:01:04,480 --> 01:01:08,160 Speaker 27: the plate to remind them of what they had endured 1167 01:01:09,160 --> 01:01:13,920 Speaker 27: during that time of starvation, where again half their number died, 1168 01:01:14,360 --> 01:01:17,160 Speaker 27: but they gave thanks that He allowed them to flourish. 1169 01:01:17,240 --> 01:01:21,040 Speaker 27: So Thanksgiving is such a great reminder of our Christian roots. 1170 01:01:21,360 --> 01:01:22,320 Speaker 13: And a lot of people want to. 1171 01:01:22,320 --> 01:01:25,440 Speaker 27: Say, well, you know, okay, we can understand the settlers, 1172 01:01:25,480 --> 01:01:27,480 Speaker 27: like the Pilgrims and the Puritans, they were Christians, but 1173 01:01:27,520 --> 01:01:30,000 Speaker 27: by the time you get to the Founding Fathers, they weren't. 1174 01:01:30,160 --> 01:01:33,760 Speaker 27: They were, you know, basically unbelievers. And that's just not true. 1175 01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:37,720 Speaker 27: And anybody who takes Bill Feederer's book America's Godden Country, 1176 01:01:37,960 --> 01:01:40,360 Speaker 27: and you look at these quotes from the Founding fathers 1177 01:01:40,400 --> 01:01:45,880 Speaker 27: as well as the settlers, including you know, George Washington 1178 01:01:46,040 --> 01:01:50,240 Speaker 27: and you know all the different Founding fathers, James Madison, 1179 01:01:50,280 --> 01:01:52,760 Speaker 27: you see that Christian faith played a very important role. 1180 01:01:53,040 --> 01:01:53,560 Speaker 1: Well in the. 1181 01:01:55,160 --> 01:01:58,160 Speaker 4: Doctor Newcomb, we have a great clip from Charlie basically 1182 01:01:58,160 --> 01:02:01,280 Speaker 4: asserting the Christian roots of our founding and we might 1183 01:02:01,320 --> 01:02:03,520 Speaker 4: play that this hour.

Don't under understand. 1240 01:05:12,360 --> 01:05:15,920 Speaker 14: We were talking before the break about the Founders and 1241 01:05:16,120 --> 01:05:18,240 Speaker 14: you know, the myth the Founders were all, you know, 1242 01:05:18,880 --> 01:05:22,360 Speaker 14: proto modern atheists and such, and so I was looking 1243 01:05:22,400 --> 01:05:25,160 Speaker 14: at some of you know, the early Thanksgiving stuff. So 1244 01:05:25,520 --> 01:05:29,520 Speaker 14: George Washington was was proclaiming days of Thanksgiving in the 1245 01:05:29,560 --> 01:05:32,840 Speaker 14: middle of the Revolutionary War, notably after the Battle at Saratoga, 1246 01:05:32,920 --> 01:05:35,680 Speaker 14: which was the victory that really opened the way for 1247 01:05:35,880 --> 01:05:40,160 Speaker 14: America to to actually win that conflict multiple and then 1248 01:05:40,200 --> 01:05:42,920 Speaker 14: we had we had proclamations of Thanksgiving by the Continental 1249 01:05:43,080 --> 01:05:47,200 Speaker 14: Congress or the Confederation Congress during that fun period where 1250 01:05:47,200 --> 01:05:50,480 Speaker 14: we didn't have the Constitution yet. And then this one 1251 01:05:50,520 --> 01:05:53,840 Speaker 14: really stood out to me as remarkable. Basically, the day 1252 01:05:54,120 --> 01:05:58,160 Speaker 14: after the House of Representatives voted to advance the first Amendment, 1253 01:05:58,640 --> 01:06:00,640 Speaker 14: the Freedom of a Religion Amendment, the that people used 1254 01:06:00,640 --> 01:06:03,000 Speaker 14: to argue there's a wall of separation between church and 1255 01:06:03,040 --> 01:06:03,760 Speaker 14: state and our government. 1256 01:06:03,800 --> 01:06:05,600 Speaker 12: You know, they declared us a non religious country. The 1257 01:06:05,720 --> 01:06:06,880 Speaker 12: day after they do this. 1258 01:06:07,680 --> 01:06:12,800 Speaker 14: Uh, Congressman Elias, I have no idea how they're going 1259 01:06:12,840 --> 01:06:16,520 Speaker 14: to pronounce that. From New Jersey, he had the House 1260 01:06:16,600 --> 01:06:19,960 Speaker 14: and Senate jointly call for President Washington to declare a 1261 01:06:20,080 --> 01:06:24,160 Speaker 14: day of Thanksgiving for quote the many signal favors of 1262 01:06:24,400 --> 01:06:28,440 Speaker 14: Almighty God in his favor for our country. 1263 01:06:28,920 --> 01:06:29,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1264 01:06:29,240 --> 01:06:32,800 Speaker 4: Bill, you know this. This is a debate that goes 1265 01:06:32,960 --> 01:06:36,360 Speaker 4: back and forth, and Charlie I think had the ultimate 1266 01:06:36,560 --> 01:06:38,440 Speaker 4: slap down video. I think we're just gonna have to 1267 01:06:38,480 --> 01:06:42,760 Speaker 4: play it when we get it. Bill, was America of 1268 01:06:43,000 --> 01:06:45,480 Speaker 4: a Christian nation? Do we have Christian roots or are 1269 01:06:45,520 --> 01:06:48,800 Speaker 4: we just a bunch of deists, you know that believe 1270 01:06:48,840 --> 01:06:49,640 Speaker 4: in a distant God? 1271 01:06:49,760 --> 01:06:50,000 Speaker 13: What what? 1272 01:06:50,200 --> 01:06:50,880 Speaker 4: What is the truth? 1273 01:06:52,320 --> 01:06:52,520 Speaker 1: Yeah? 1274 01:06:52,560 --> 01:06:56,320 Speaker 6: Well, Europe was Catholic and then the Reformation started and 1275 01:06:56,400 --> 01:06:59,120 Speaker 6: then you had one denomination per country. 1276 01:06:59,720 --> 01:07:03,680 Speaker 1: So northern Germany and Sweden or Lutheran. Switzerland was Calvinist, 1277 01:07:03,880 --> 01:07:07,720 Speaker 1: Scotland was Presbyterian, Holland was Dutch Reform. It least being 1278 01:07:07,800 --> 01:07:10,280 Speaker 1: France Officer of Poland State Catholic. And if you did 1279 01:07:10,360 --> 01:07:12,440 Speaker 1: not believe the way your king did, you were persecuted 1280 01:07:12,480 --> 01:07:14,120 Speaker 1: and you fled. And a lot of those people that 1281 01:07:14,200 --> 01:07:17,720 Speaker 1: fled spilled over and founded colonies in America. So I 1282 01:07:17,800 --> 01:07:21,120 Speaker 1: read every charter of every colony. Every colony was. 1283 01:07:21,080 --> 01:07:25,000 Speaker 6: Started by a different Christian denomination. Virginia was Anglican. 1284 01:07:25,440 --> 01:07:25,880 Speaker 1: You had. 1285 01:07:27,520 --> 01:07:30,080 Speaker 6: The oath of Supremacy acknowledging that the King is the 1286 01:07:30,120 --> 01:07:35,080 Speaker 6: head of the Anglican Church. Massu spirit and Rhode Island 1287 01:07:35,160 --> 01:07:38,680 Speaker 6: was founded by Baptists. New York was founded by Dutch Reform. 1288 01:07:39,080 --> 01:07:42,320 Speaker 6: Delaware and New Jersey were originally Swedish Lutheran and then 1289 01:07:42,400 --> 01:07:44,120 Speaker 6: taken over by the Dutch and then taken over by 1290 01:07:44,120 --> 01:07:48,400 Speaker 6: the British. Connecticut New Hampshire were Congregationalist Christian colonies and 1291 01:07:48,600 --> 01:07:52,560 Speaker 6: Pennsylvania Quaker, and I mentioned Maryland was found by Catholics, 1292 01:07:52,720 --> 01:07:55,480 Speaker 6: Lord Baltimore. But the idea in America was they didn't 1293 01:07:55,520 --> 01:07:58,920 Speaker 6: get along, they turned feather each others. But then they 1294 01:07:58,920 --> 01:08:00,960 Speaker 6: all had to work together against the King of England. 1295 01:08:01,480 --> 01:08:04,560 Speaker 6: After the Revolution, their attitude changed to we may not 1296 01:08:04,600 --> 01:08:08,000 Speaker 6: always agree on religion, but you were well fine and 1297 01:08:08,120 --> 01:08:09,400 Speaker 6: die for my freedom. 1298 01:08:09,600 --> 01:08:12,120 Speaker 1: I need to let you practice your faith. 1299 01:08:12,960 --> 01:08:16,200 Speaker 6: And so religion began to expand, but on a state 1300 01:08:16,240 --> 01:08:19,800 Speaker 6: by state basis. So in seventeen seventy six, ninety eight 1301 01:08:19,840 --> 01:08:22,760 Speaker 6: percent of the country was Protestant, a three million people, 1302 01:08:23,080 --> 01:08:25,519 Speaker 6: only one percent Catholic. Only thirty thousand Catholics in a 1303 01:08:25,560 --> 01:08:27,519 Speaker 6: country three million. They were only allowed in Maryland, Counsylvania, 1304 01:08:27,520 --> 01:08:30,320 Speaker 6: and New York. And then one tenth of a percent Jewish, 1305 01:08:30,400 --> 01:08:32,840 Speaker 6: only seven synagogus in the whole country. And then I 1306 01:08:32,960 --> 01:08:35,800 Speaker 6: read through every state constitution and so nine of the 1307 01:08:35,840 --> 01:08:38,040 Speaker 6: original thirteen you had to be a Protestant, three you 1308 01:08:38,080 --> 01:08:40,360 Speaker 6: had to be a plane Christian. And then there's an 1309 01:08:40,400 --> 01:08:42,799 Speaker 6: Irish data fan and millions of Irish Catholics come to America, 1310 01:08:42,840 --> 01:08:44,880 Speaker 6: and they go from one percent of twenty percent in 1311 01:08:45,000 --> 01:08:47,719 Speaker 6: a decade, and then states began to expand from requiring 1312 01:08:47,760 --> 01:08:50,200 Speaker 6: to be Protestant to just Christian. Then there's a persecution 1313 01:08:50,280 --> 01:08:52,479 Speaker 6: of Jews in Bavaria. They come across and go from 1314 01:08:52,520 --> 01:08:54,439 Speaker 6: a tenth to a percent to one percent. In eighteen 1315 01:08:54,520 --> 01:08:58,120 Speaker 6: fifty one, Maryland changed its state constitution to say you 1316 01:08:58,160 --> 01:09:00,439 Speaker 6: could hold office if you were a Christian or a Jew. 1317 01:09:01,240 --> 01:09:03,360 Speaker 6: And then after the Civil War, many states rewrote their 1318 01:09:03,400 --> 01:09:05,320 Speaker 6: constitutions to say all he had to do was believe 1319 01:09:05,360 --> 01:09:08,519 Speaker 6: in God. But again, the first Amendment was simply to 1320 01:09:08,600 --> 01:09:12,360 Speaker 6: prevent the federal government from picking one Christian denomination and 1321 01:09:12,479 --> 01:09:16,120 Speaker 6: making it the national one, which again was what every 1322 01:09:16,160 --> 01:09:17,400 Speaker 6: country in Europe had done. 1323 01:09:18,760 --> 01:09:23,200 Speaker 4: Wow, that's thorough, That's very fair. I wonder if so 1324 01:09:23,360 --> 01:09:25,760 Speaker 4: Charlie had this great exchange. We're going to play it 1325 01:09:25,760 --> 01:09:28,840 Speaker 4: in the next segment. But I, Bill, did you give 1326 01:09:28,920 --> 01:09:31,360 Speaker 4: him all of the Where did he get that from? 1327 01:09:31,400 --> 01:09:31,439 Speaker 9: You? 1328 01:09:31,560 --> 01:09:32,679 Speaker 1: Bill? Yeah? 1329 01:09:32,720 --> 01:09:36,880 Speaker 6: Yeah, we did an interview actually on that topic beforehand, 1330 01:09:36,960 --> 01:09:40,400 Speaker 6: and then right after he recorded that, he texted it 1331 01:09:40,439 --> 01:09:41,880 Speaker 6: to me and he said, how did I do. 1332 01:09:43,640 --> 01:09:43,840 Speaker 13: Well? 1333 01:09:44,400 --> 01:09:47,000 Speaker 4: I think he did well because that clip was seen 1334 01:09:47,080 --> 01:09:50,439 Speaker 4: by tens of millions of people. It really was an 1335 01:09:50,560 --> 01:09:54,479 Speaker 4: absolute masterclass. Doctor Jerry newcome you when we play it 1336 01:09:54,560 --> 01:09:57,479 Speaker 4: for you, we'll get your your review on how Charlie did. 1337 01:09:57,560 --> 01:09:59,880 Speaker 4: But it's one of those clips that keeps coming back 1338 01:10:00,080 --> 01:10:04,360 Speaker 4: around again and again and again, especially after we lost Charlie, 1339 01:10:04,800 --> 01:10:08,160 Speaker 4: because I think it it just was the exact type 1340 01:10:08,200 --> 01:10:10,760 Speaker 4: of moral clarity that the world so desperately needs. And 1341 01:10:10,840 --> 01:10:14,600 Speaker 4: Charlie had a way of being patient but forceful and 1342 01:10:14,760 --> 01:10:17,680 Speaker 4: firm and morally Claire and I think it was a 1343 01:10:17,720 --> 01:10:20,760 Speaker 4: really powerful moment. So we're gonna play that. We can 1344 01:10:20,800 --> 01:10:23,120 Speaker 4: open the next segment with it, and doctor Jerry Nucomb 1345 01:10:23,120 --> 01:10:26,240 Speaker 4: will get your will get your your grade AAA through F. 1346 01:10:26,520 --> 01:10:28,120 Speaker 4: You're gonna have to grade Charlie's take. 1347 01:10:28,160 --> 01:10:28,320 Speaker 10: There. 1348 01:10:28,520 --> 01:10:31,080 Speaker 4: We'll be right back more with doctor Jerry Nukem and 1349 01:10:31,240 --> 01:10:32,599 Speaker 4: Bill Federer. We'll get back. 1350 01:10:40,520 --> 01:10:43,200 Speaker 20: Welcome back to this Real America's Voice news break. I'm 1351 01:10:43,320 --> 01:10:47,040 Speaker 20: Terrence Bates. The holidays in full swing at the White House. 1352 01:10:47,120 --> 01:10:50,160 Speaker 20: Is President Trump just pardoned two turkeys? You see one 1353 01:10:50,200 --> 01:10:53,559 Speaker 20: of them there. The ceremonial pardons are tradition for US 1354 01:10:53,680 --> 01:10:57,360 Speaker 20: presidents and date back decades. This year's pardon turkeys are 1355 01:10:57,400 --> 01:11:01,160 Speaker 20: named Waddle and Gobble. Only Gobble was at the White House, 1356 01:11:01,240 --> 01:11:03,960 Speaker 20: though you see Gobble there forty seven. By the way, 1357 01:11:03,960 --> 01:11:06,280 Speaker 20: you also use the stage to deliver a bit of 1358 01:11:06,320 --> 01:11:08,799 Speaker 20: a job at his predecessor, Joe Biden. 1359 01:11:09,240 --> 01:11:12,320 Speaker 28: So I want to make an important announcement because you 1360 01:11:12,439 --> 01:11:17,280 Speaker 28: remember last year, after a thorough and very rigorous investigation 1361 01:11:18,600 --> 01:11:22,200 Speaker 28: by Pam Bondi and all of the people at the 1362 01:11:22,200 --> 01:11:26,719 Speaker 28: Department of Justice, the FBI, the CIA, the White House 1363 01:11:26,800 --> 01:11:31,160 Speaker 28: Counsel's Office, and the Apartment of Everything. We have a 1364 01:11:31,280 --> 01:11:33,360 Speaker 28: Department of Everything, you know that is I think that's 1365 01:11:33,400 --> 01:11:39,439 Speaker 28: called the White House into a terrible situation caused by 1366 01:11:39,439 --> 01:11:42,400 Speaker 28: a man named sleepy Joe Biden. He used an auto 1367 01:11:42,520 --> 01:11:46,479 Speaker 28: pen last year for the Turkey's pardon. So I have 1368 01:11:46,640 --> 01:11:50,519 Speaker 28: the official duty to determine, and I have determined that 1369 01:11:50,680 --> 01:11:56,280 Speaker 28: last year's Turkey partons are totally invalid, as are the 1370 01:11:56,400 --> 01:12:00,000 Speaker 28: partners of about every other person that was pardoned other than. 1371 01:12:01,360 --> 01:12:01,960 Speaker 10: Where's Hunter. 1372 01:12:03,800 --> 01:12:05,720 Speaker 28: No Hunters was good. That was the one part in 1373 01:12:05,800 --> 01:12:07,519 Speaker 28: pamp that was good, Right, The rest of them are 1374 01:12:07,560 --> 01:12:08,240 Speaker 28: all invalid. 1375 01:12:08,320 --> 01:12:09,519 Speaker 23: I don't know what the hell you're going to. 1376 01:12:09,520 --> 01:12:11,680 Speaker 28: Do about that, but that's now We're going to take 1377 01:12:11,680 --> 01:12:13,439 Speaker 28: a little of the joke and that is a mess. 1378 01:12:14,400 --> 01:12:16,479 Speaker 4: But they're hereby nol and void. 1379 01:12:17,160 --> 01:12:20,920 Speaker 28: The turkeys known as peachin Blossom last year have been 1380 01:12:21,040 --> 01:12:24,240 Speaker 28: located and they were on their way to be processed, 1381 01:12:24,360 --> 01:12:27,160 Speaker 28: in other words, to be killed. But I have stopped 1382 01:12:27,240 --> 01:12:32,280 Speaker 28: that journey and I am officially pardoning them and they 1383 01:12:32,320 --> 01:12:36,760 Speaker 28: will not be served for Thanksgiving dinner. We saved them 1384 01:12:36,800 --> 01:12:38,840 Speaker 28: in the nick of time. This one has plenty of time, 1385 01:12:38,920 --> 01:12:40,559 Speaker 28: but they were saved in the nick of time. 1386 01:12:41,360 --> 01:12:44,759 Speaker 20: Meantime, the White House Christmas tree is in place this morning. 1387 01:12:45,280 --> 01:12:49,519 Speaker 20: It's from Michigan's Coursince Tree Farm. This year White House 1388 01:12:49,600 --> 01:12:53,799 Speaker 20: Christmas decorations will reportedly be gold themed with garland and ornaments. 1389 01:12:54,240 --> 01:12:56,200 Speaker 20: The President and First Lady are set to leave the 1390 01:12:56,240 --> 01:12:59,160 Speaker 20: White House later on this evening and spend Thanksgiving it 1391 01:12:59,320 --> 01:13:02,040 Speaker 20: Mari Laga, that's a quick check of your headlines. 1392 01:13:15,120 --> 01:13:19,200 Speaker 19: You're leveless than spirit.

But doctor Jerry Newcome, 1422 01:14:38,800 --> 01:14:40,719 Speaker 4: I'm gonna get your reaction to this on the other side. 1423 01:14:42,080 --> 01:14:44,600 Speaker 4: I believe we have it, don't we We have it? 1424 01:14:44,720 --> 01:14:44,880 Speaker 12: Yes? 1425 01:14:45,080 --> 01:14:45,559 Speaker 4: Is it loaded? 1426 01:14:45,680 --> 01:14:46,040 Speaker 1: Believe it? 1427 01:14:47,240 --> 01:14:48,479 Speaker 4: Let's try to fourteen. 1428 01:14:49,640 --> 01:14:52,000 Speaker 29: Remember that we were a collection of states and colonies, 1429 01:14:52,479 --> 01:14:54,880 Speaker 29: and you need to read the state constitutions for anything else. 1430 01:14:55,000 --> 01:14:57,439 Speaker 29: Thirteen on thirteen required a declaration of faith. Nine to 1431 01:14:57,560 --> 01:15:00,240 Speaker 29: thirteen required you to be a Protestant, except Marylyn, which 1432 01:15:00,280 --> 01:15:03,160 Speaker 29: was Catholic, which still required a declaration of faith. Every 1433 01:15:03,200 --> 01:15:06,640 Speaker 29: single one of the original state constitutions Pennsylvania included they 1434 01:15:06,760 --> 01:15:09,599 Speaker 29: had I profess Lord in Jesus Christ as my Lord 1435 01:15:09,640 --> 01:15:12,639 Speaker 29: and Savior in the original state constitutions. Secondly, fifty five 1436 01:15:13,080 --> 01:15:15,400 Speaker 29: fifty six of the original signers of the declaration were 1437 01:15:15,439 --> 01:15:18,240 Speaker 29: Bible believing church attending Christians. You asked about common law, 1438 01:15:18,439 --> 01:15:21,240 Speaker 29: so common law is inherited from Blackstone, who was Christian. 1439 01:15:22,000 --> 01:15:23,920 Speaker 29: A common law is an outgrowth of the scriptures, so 1440 01:15:24,040 --> 01:15:26,280 Speaker 29: let's go to three principles of common law, due process, 1441 01:15:26,720 --> 01:15:29,200 Speaker 29: and drew of your peers, wrapped into the ultimate Biblical 1442 01:15:29,240 --> 01:15:32,400 Speaker 29: principle that you shall not favor justice if you are 1443 01:15:32,479 --> 01:15:35,080 Speaker 29: richer report, which is in Leviticus nineteen, right before the 1444 01:15:35,120 --> 01:15:37,600 Speaker 29: most famous part of Lividicus nineteen, which is that you 1445 01:15:37,600 --> 01:15:40,560 Speaker 29: should love your neighbors yourself. But before that is that 1446 01:15:40,680 --> 01:15:43,120 Speaker 29: in the administration of justice you shall not favor the 1447 01:15:43,200 --> 01:15:45,479 Speaker 29: rich or the poor, which is the idea of blind justice. 1448 01:15:45,520 --> 01:15:47,880 Speaker 29: We get that in the West, which is incorporated also 1449 01:15:47,920 --> 01:15:50,360 Speaker 29: in the New Testament ideal. Neither slave nor Greek nor Jew, 1450 01:15:50,360 --> 01:15:51,880 Speaker 29: You're all one in Jesus Christ, as you get to 1451 01:15:51,920 --> 01:15:52,759 Speaker 29: aid human equality. 1452 01:15:53,040 --> 01:15:54,120 Speaker 1: These are all Biblical ideas. 1453 01:15:54,120 --> 01:15:56,519 Speaker 29: They're not Enlightenment ideas, which is they kind of get 1454 01:15:56,560 --> 01:15:59,040 Speaker 29: conflated at the time. But more importantly than that, they 1455 01:15:59,120 --> 01:16:01,320 Speaker 29: say that God was only mentioned four times in the 1456 01:16:01,400 --> 01:16:02,400 Speaker 29: Declaration of Independence. 1457 01:16:02,680 --> 01:16:03,400 Speaker 10: Well, that's a big. 1458 01:16:03,280 --> 01:16:06,000 Speaker 29: Deal, okay, laws of nature and Nature's God. The last 1459 01:16:06,080 --> 01:16:08,960 Speaker 29: paragraph of the declaration reads as a prayer. It says, 1460 01:16:09,080 --> 01:16:12,200 Speaker 29: we appeal to the supreme judge of the universe, who's 1461 01:16:12,240 --> 01:16:15,360 Speaker 29: the judged universe. Jesus Christ says in Revelation that Jesus 1462 01:16:15,400 --> 01:16:19,000 Speaker 29: will judge the earth on his throne. So in the 1463 01:16:19,040 --> 01:16:22,519 Speaker 29: declaration they were praying to Christ our Lord as a 1464 01:16:22,640 --> 01:16:26,000 Speaker 29: prayer very specifically. Thirdly, as I said on stage yesterday, 1465 01:16:26,200 --> 01:16:29,479 Speaker 29: Deuteronomy was by far the most quoted book religious or 1466 01:16:29,520 --> 01:16:31,880 Speaker 29: non religious in the time of the Founding when they 1467 01:16:31,920 --> 01:16:35,120 Speaker 29: were putting together Constitution, more than John Locke, more than Montesquieu, 1468 01:16:35,400 --> 01:16:38,759 Speaker 29: more than Blackstone. So the Book of Deuteronomy, which talked 1469 01:16:38,760 --> 01:16:42,240 Speaker 29: about laws, customs, traditions, it was Moses's farewell address as 1470 01:16:42,360 --> 01:16:45,280 Speaker 29: he's about to say goodbye, say hey, good luck, and canaan, guys, 1471 01:16:45,479 --> 01:16:47,320 Speaker 29: here's how you should set up your form of government. 1472 01:16:47,640 --> 01:16:50,640 Speaker 29: But finally, and most importantly, let's look at actually what 1473 01:16:50,720 --> 01:16:54,320 Speaker 29: the founder said. John Adam seelessly said the Constitution was 1474 01:16:54,400 --> 01:16:55,719 Speaker 29: only written for a moral. 1475 01:16:55,560 --> 01:16:56,200 Speaker 1: Religious people. 1476 01:16:56,240 --> 01:16:58,160 Speaker 29: It was wholly inadequate for the people of any other 1477 01:16:58,520 --> 01:17:01,080 Speaker 29: the body politic of America. It was so Christian and 1478 01:17:01,240 --> 01:17:03,719 Speaker 29: was so Protestant that our form and structure of government 1479 01:17:03,840 --> 01:17:06,720 Speaker 29: was built for the people that believed in Christ our Lord. 1480 01:17:06,920 --> 01:17:09,320 Speaker 29: One of the reasons we're living through a constitutional crisis 1481 01:17:09,720 --> 01:17:11,840 Speaker 29: is that we no longer have a Christian nation, but 1482 01:17:11,960 --> 01:17:14,560 Speaker 29: we have a Christian form of government, and they're incompatible. 1483 01:17:14,640 --> 01:17:16,519 Speaker 4: So you cannot have liberty if you do not have 1484 01:17:16,560 --> 01:17:23,799 Speaker 4: a Christian population. Boom zing, great content, Doctor Newcombe. 1485 01:17:24,360 --> 01:17:28,920 Speaker 13: Your reaction absolutely horrific, And he's totally right. 1486 01:17:29,080 --> 01:17:32,960 Speaker 27: We have this foundation of the nation that is based 1487 01:17:33,040 --> 01:17:36,680 Speaker 27: on biblical principles and that quote that he alluded to 1488 01:17:36,840 --> 01:17:39,760 Speaker 27: from John Adams. Our constitution was made only for a 1489 01:17:39,880 --> 01:17:43,400 Speaker 27: moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the 1490 01:17:43,479 --> 01:17:47,160 Speaker 27: government of any other. When George Washington was leaving the office, 1491 01:17:47,200 --> 01:17:49,639 Speaker 27: he gave us the farewell address, and he said, there, 1492 01:17:49,960 --> 01:17:53,880 Speaker 27: of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, 1493 01:17:54,439 --> 01:17:59,840 Speaker 27: religion and morality are indispensable supports. Well modern Americans today 1494 01:18:00,120 --> 01:18:03,840 Speaker 27: saying religion and morality have no place in the public. 1495 01:18:03,640 --> 01:18:06,599 Speaker 13: Arena, what are you talking about. It was religion and morality, 1496 01:18:06,680 --> 01:18:12,000 Speaker 13: specifically Christianity that gave us the freedoms we enjoy, and those. 1497 01:18:11,880 --> 01:18:17,200 Speaker 27: Freedoms cannot be maintained for long if we undercut that 1498 01:18:17,640 --> 01:18:21,679 Speaker 27: Christian foundation. Now the foundation is still there, it's attacked 1499 01:18:22,240 --> 01:18:24,920 Speaker 27: and people will bring out, you know, all kinds of 1500 01:18:24,920 --> 01:18:28,000 Speaker 27: different ways to try and cut us off from that foundation. 1501 01:18:28,160 --> 01:18:30,759 Speaker 27: But the foundation is still there in a different context. 1502 01:18:30,880 --> 01:18:35,439 Speaker 27: John Adams once said facts are stubborn things. This is 1503 01:18:35,479 --> 01:18:38,720 Speaker 27: why the history is so important. This is why at 1504 01:18:38,800 --> 01:18:41,800 Speaker 27: Providenceforum dot org, for example, we do so much to 1505 01:18:41,920 --> 01:18:44,920 Speaker 27: try and create these videos and programs like you do 1506 01:18:45,080 --> 01:18:48,600 Speaker 27: too at Turning Point with Bill Federer, in order to. 1507 01:18:49,120 --> 01:18:52,360 Speaker 13: Educate people about our Christian roots. 1508 01:18:52,840 --> 01:18:56,599 Speaker 27: And you know, the fact of the matter is human 1509 01:18:56,680 --> 01:19:01,600 Speaker 27: beings are sinful, and that is a very important doctrine 1510 01:19:01,960 --> 01:19:05,560 Speaker 27: that the Founding fathers fully understood. You read the Constitution 1511 01:19:06,120 --> 01:19:09,200 Speaker 27: and you see the separation of power. They did not 1512 01:19:09,320 --> 01:19:12,000 Speaker 27: want to give too much power to too many people. 1513 01:19:12,280 --> 01:19:15,320 Speaker 27: You read the Declaration of Independence and you see the 1514 01:19:15,439 --> 01:19:19,920 Speaker 27: consent of the governed, and this is because we have 1515 01:19:20,240 --> 01:19:21,439 Speaker 27: our rights from God. 1516 01:19:21,600 --> 01:19:23,439 Speaker 13: So the fact that human beings are made in the 1517 01:19:23,560 --> 01:19:24,519 Speaker 13: image of God. 1518 01:19:25,160 --> 01:19:28,200 Speaker 27: That's enshrined in the Declaration of Independence, and the fact 1519 01:19:28,240 --> 01:19:31,200 Speaker 27: that human beings are fallen and sinful, that's entrined in 1520 01:19:31,280 --> 01:19:32,000 Speaker 27: the Constitution. 1521 01:19:32,439 --> 01:19:35,960 Speaker 13: And these have governed us very very well. When you 1522 01:19:36,080 --> 01:19:36,599 Speaker 13: look at. 1523 01:19:36,560 --> 01:19:40,960 Speaker 27: Countries like the communist countries, for example, in the twentieth 1524 01:19:41,080 --> 01:19:44,320 Speaker 27: century and twenty first century, even you see how they 1525 01:19:44,400 --> 01:19:46,280 Speaker 27: begin with this atheistic foundation. 1526 01:19:46,840 --> 01:19:47,800 Speaker 13: There is no God. 1527 01:19:48,400 --> 01:19:51,120 Speaker 27: And when there is no God and the belief of that, 1528 01:19:51,400 --> 01:19:55,639 Speaker 27: then there are no rights. So even some liberal type 1529 01:19:56,760 --> 01:20:00,720 Speaker 27: founders of America, for example Thomas Jefferson, he wasn't Unchristian 1530 01:20:00,840 --> 01:20:02,200 Speaker 27: is he sometimes made out to be. 1531 01:20:02,280 --> 01:20:04,240 Speaker 13: He was not a lifelong skeptic. 1532 01:20:04,760 --> 01:20:09,600 Speaker 27: In fact, the year after he wrote the Declaration of Independence, 1533 01:20:10,040 --> 01:20:13,800 Speaker 27: he helped found as a layman the Calvinistical Reform Church 1534 01:20:14,280 --> 01:20:17,720 Speaker 27: of Charlottesville, And he even wrote up the agreement for 1535 01:20:17,920 --> 01:20:21,799 Speaker 27: the subscription for this and they called an evangelical minister, 1536 01:20:21,920 --> 01:20:25,200 Speaker 27: the Reverend Charles Clay for this church, and they said, 1537 01:20:25,240 --> 01:20:29,360 Speaker 27: we're desirous of gospel knowledge. But even Jefferson later, when 1538 01:20:29,400 --> 01:20:31,040 Speaker 27: he has some doubts and so forth about some of 1539 01:20:31,120 --> 01:20:36,760 Speaker 27: the doctrines, he still said that our rights come from God. 1540 01:20:36,960 --> 01:20:40,439 Speaker 27: And if we ever forget that, I tremble for my country, 1541 01:20:40,520 --> 01:20:44,519 Speaker 27: because how can we maintain our freedoms if we ever 1542 01:20:44,720 --> 01:20:49,240 Speaker 27: lose sight of God. And the twentieth century and the 1543 01:20:49,920 --> 01:20:52,920 Speaker 27: beginning of the twenty first century, there's many nations have 1544 01:20:53,000 --> 01:20:56,040 Speaker 27: been soaked in blood because they began with the premise 1545 01:20:56,080 --> 01:21:00,800 Speaker 27: that there is no God, there's no higher authority then 1546 01:21:00,960 --> 01:21:05,200 Speaker 27: the state. The state is God. So good luck with that, 1547 01:21:05,720 --> 01:21:09,400 Speaker 27: so mao is slain is millions and tens of millions 1548 01:21:09,439 --> 01:21:10,200 Speaker 27: in Stalin two. 1549 01:21:11,000 --> 01:21:14,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, well said, well said, the soaked and bloodline. Really 1550 01:21:14,479 --> 01:21:16,640 Speaker 4: it hits and we have to be on guard about that. 1551 01:21:16,960 --> 01:21:20,280 Speaker 12: And speaking of that, I think it's worth remembering that. 1552 01:21:20,560 --> 01:21:22,400 Speaker 14: You know, we've talked about the first Thanksgiving, we talked 1553 01:21:22,400 --> 01:21:26,600 Speaker 14: about the founding era Thanksgivings, but the annual you know Thanksgiving, 1554 01:21:26,720 --> 01:21:29,720 Speaker 14: as we observe it was born in the middle of 1555 01:21:29,800 --> 01:21:33,760 Speaker 14: the American Civil War, yep, proclaimed by Lincoln eighteen sixty three. 1556 01:21:33,960 --> 01:21:36,760 Speaker 14: That's not the end of the Civil War. That's the 1557 01:21:36,840 --> 01:21:39,360 Speaker 14: peak of the war, right part of it. Tens of 1558 01:21:39,439 --> 01:21:42,439 Speaker 14: thousands of people are dying every month. This is just 1559 01:21:42,479 --> 01:21:45,519 Speaker 14: a few months after Gettysburg, the bloodiest battle in American history, 1560 01:21:46,000 --> 01:21:49,519 Speaker 14: and that is when Lincoln issues his proclamation that we 1561 01:21:49,520 --> 01:21:51,920 Speaker 14: should have a national day of Thanksgiving. 1562 01:21:52,080 --> 01:21:54,200 Speaker 12: And I think there's a lot of meaning in. 1563 01:21:54,240 --> 01:21:57,040 Speaker 4: That, Yeah, especially this year, given what we've been through. 1564 01:21:57,920 --> 01:22:00,280 Speaker 4: Bill on that note of what Blake's talking, but how 1565 01:22:00,320 --> 01:22:04,960 Speaker 4: did we get from Jamestown to eighteen sixty three? What 1566 01:22:06,439 --> 01:22:09,840 Speaker 4: was the American experience with Thanksgiving in between that time? 1567 01:22:11,040 --> 01:22:12,599 Speaker 1: Right? Well, now, I do want to mention. 1568 01:22:12,720 --> 01:22:15,040 Speaker 6: I have a book and it's called The Treacherous World 1569 01:22:15,120 --> 01:22:17,680 Speaker 6: of the sixteenth Century and how the Pilgrims escaped it. 1570 01:22:18,120 --> 01:22:20,400 Speaker 1: So it gets the whole setting of what was going 1571 01:22:20,479 --> 01:22:22,320 Speaker 1: on in Europe. What were the Muslims are doing? 1572 01:22:22,760 --> 01:22:26,560 Speaker 6: People forget that they were surrounding Vienna Austria twice and 1573 01:22:27,160 --> 01:22:30,240 Speaker 6: they had pirates capturing and they had the whole Catholic 1574 01:22:30,360 --> 01:22:33,320 Speaker 6: orders in Europe called the Trinitarians, and they would ransom 1575 01:22:33,439 --> 01:22:36,120 Speaker 6: back people from muslim slavery. And matter of fact, one 1576 01:22:36,120 --> 01:22:39,120 Speaker 6: of the Pilgrim ships was captured by Muslim pirates in 1577 01:22:39,280 --> 01:22:42,120 Speaker 6: sixteen twenty five. William Bradford said they saved up eight 1578 01:22:42,200 --> 01:22:44,799 Speaker 6: hundred pounds of beaver skins sent it back to England, 1579 01:22:44,840 --> 01:22:47,240 Speaker 6: but it was captured in the English Channel by a 1580 01:22:47,360 --> 01:22:50,720 Speaker 6: Turkish man of war, carried off to Salm Morocco, and. 1581 01:22:50,800 --> 01:22:53,920 Speaker 1: The crew was made slaves. So even the Pilgrims had 1582 01:22:53,960 --> 01:22:54,479 Speaker 1: to deal with that. 1583 01:22:55,320 --> 01:22:57,120 Speaker 6: One other thing before we get off the Pilgrims is 1584 01:22:57,200 --> 01:23:00,280 Speaker 6: they tried communism right, so they had no money, borrowed 1585 01:23:00,320 --> 01:23:02,920 Speaker 6: money from a London company that set up by laws 1586 01:23:02,960 --> 01:23:05,920 Speaker 6: that said everything would be held in common. Everything got 1587 01:23:06,000 --> 01:23:08,679 Speaker 6: by cooking trucking, fishing shall go into ye common stock, 1588 01:23:08,760 --> 01:23:11,400 Speaker 6: and everyone's livelihood schul come out of ye common stock. 1589 01:23:11,880 --> 01:23:13,920 Speaker 6: And William Bradford said they tried it and almost starved 1590 01:23:13,960 --> 01:23:16,320 Speaker 6: to death. He says that the young man objected to 1591 01:23:16,439 --> 01:23:18,280 Speaker 6: doing twice as much work as the old guy, but 1592 01:23:18,360 --> 01:23:20,840 Speaker 6: got paid the same. The women objected to having to 1593 01:23:21,000 --> 01:23:24,919 Speaker 6: wash other men's clothes, and William Bradford said, after much discussion, 1594 01:23:24,960 --> 01:23:27,120 Speaker 6: it was decided that each man should plant corn for 1595 01:23:27,320 --> 01:23:28,160 Speaker 6: his own household. 1596 01:23:28,520 --> 01:23:30,200 Speaker 1: This made all hands more industrious. 1597 01:23:30,240 --> 01:23:32,320 Speaker 6: The women now went willingly into the field and took 1598 01:23:32,360 --> 01:23:34,639 Speaker 6: their little ones with them to plant corn. Well before 1599 01:23:34,680 --> 01:23:36,880 Speaker 6: they would allege wheakniss, and to afforce them would have 1600 01:23:36,880 --> 01:23:40,360 Speaker 6: been great oppression. So here the Pilgrims tried everything owned 1601 01:23:40,360 --> 01:23:44,320 Speaker 6: in common, and it didn't work. One other thing that's 1602 01:23:44,360 --> 01:23:47,360 Speaker 6: overlooked is there were twice as many Indians at the 1603 01:23:47,400 --> 01:23:48,719 Speaker 6: first Thanksgiving than Pilgrims. 1604 01:23:49,240 --> 01:23:52,120 Speaker 1: There was like ninety Indians and only fifty two Pilgrims. 1605 01:23:52,640 --> 01:23:55,519 Speaker 6: And get this, only four adult women cooking for one 1606 01:23:55,640 --> 01:23:57,960 Speaker 6: hundred and forty two people, because all the rest of 1607 01:23:57,960 --> 01:24:01,160 Speaker 6: the had died in the winter. And then one other 1608 01:24:01,240 --> 01:24:04,840 Speaker 6: quick thing is Squanto, who had been kidnapped by some 1609 01:24:04,960 --> 01:24:09,759 Speaker 6: unscrupulous people and taken and sold as a slave in Malaga, Spain. 1610 01:24:09,960 --> 01:24:11,640 Speaker 1: He was purchased by some friars. 1611 01:24:11,720 --> 01:24:14,799 Speaker 6: Given his freedom, he hitchhikes his way back to England 1612 01:24:15,120 --> 01:24:17,160 Speaker 6: works for the Newfoundland company that drop him off on 1613 01:24:17,200 --> 01:24:19,880 Speaker 6: the shores of America, only to find out that his 1614 01:24:20,200 --> 01:24:21,479 Speaker 6: entire tribe was wiped out. 1615 01:24:21,400 --> 01:24:21,880 Speaker 1: In a plague. 1616 01:24:22,479 --> 01:24:26,479 Speaker 6: And William Bradford's has three years earlier friendship was shipwrecked there, 1617 01:24:26,560 --> 01:24:29,080 Speaker 6: and evidently one of the sailors that got ashorehead of 1618 01:24:29,120 --> 01:24:32,120 Speaker 6: illness and wiped out the tribe. But had Squanto not 1619 01:24:32,240 --> 01:24:34,840 Speaker 6: been kidnapped, he most likely would have been killed as well. 1620 01:24:35,240 --> 01:24:37,800 Speaker 6: But here the pilgrims land, and half of them by 1621 01:24:37,840 --> 01:24:39,800 Speaker 6: the first winter. But the next spring, out of the 1622 01:24:39,880 --> 01:24:44,040 Speaker 6: woods walks his Indian Squanto, And you can just imagine 1623 01:24:44,080 --> 01:24:46,280 Speaker 6: the conversation, Oh, you guys from England. Yeah, I used 1624 01:24:46,280 --> 01:24:48,800 Speaker 6: to live there, and then in this place I grew 1625 01:24:48,880 --> 01:24:52,000 Speaker 6: up here. And so Squanto was their interpreters, showed him 1626 01:24:52,000 --> 01:24:54,120 Speaker 6: how to catch beaver and plant corn, and was a 1627 01:24:54,200 --> 01:24:57,440 Speaker 6: special instrument sent of God for their good beyond their expectation. 1628 01:24:57,520 --> 01:25:01,240 Speaker 6: What William Bradford said, and one last thing Squanto was dying. 1629 01:25:01,479 --> 01:25:03,320 Speaker 6: He says that a couple of years later, they were 1630 01:25:03,360 --> 01:25:06,040 Speaker 6: exploring and they got caught in the freezing rain, and 1631 01:25:06,120 --> 01:25:09,439 Speaker 6: Squanto fell ill of Indian fever, bleeding much of the nose, 1632 01:25:09,760 --> 01:25:13,000 Speaker 6: and he begged Governor Bradford to pray for him that 1633 01:25:13,160 --> 01:25:17,240 Speaker 6: he might go to the Englishman's God in heaven. All right, 1634 01:25:17,320 --> 01:25:22,160 Speaker 6: so Squanto became a Christian. I'm confident anyway. So we 1635 01:25:22,280 --> 01:25:26,080 Speaker 6: looked at the Pilgrims because they had self government, which 1636 01:25:26,160 --> 01:25:30,240 Speaker 6: inspired New England and then eventually turned into our constitution. 1637 01:25:31,360 --> 01:25:32,719 Speaker 1: Fast forward, Bill. 1638 01:25:33,120 --> 01:25:34,720 Speaker 4: I'm gonna have to pause you because we're about to 1639 01:25:34,720 --> 01:25:36,680 Speaker 4: take a radio break. We're going to go through the 1640 01:25:36,720 --> 01:25:38,840 Speaker 4: break just because I want to maximize our time here. 1641 01:25:38,920 --> 01:25:44,280 Speaker 4: But we gotta do these pesky radio breaks for our 1642 01:25:44,360 --> 01:25:45,880 Speaker 4: national audience. So I want to make sure we say 1643 01:25:45,920 --> 01:25:47,960 Speaker 4: goodbye to them, just for a brief moment before we 1644 01:25:48,040 --> 01:25:50,280 Speaker 4: come back. But you guys are giving us some great 1645 01:25:50,280 --> 01:25:54,519 Speaker 4: stuff here. Bill's gonna explain the connection between the First 1646 01:25:54,560 --> 01:25:57,880 Speaker 4: Thanksgiving in eighteen sixty three, the Declaration of the First 1647 01:25:57,880 --> 01:26:15,920 Speaker 4: Thanksgiving by Lincoln. We'll be right back, all right. Got 1648 01:26:15,960 --> 01:26:18,320 Speaker 4: an email here from Kevin. This is really good, Blake, 1649 01:26:18,360 --> 01:26:19,160 Speaker 4: you want to read this one. 1650 01:26:19,120 --> 01:26:20,080 Speaker 12: Or let me see. 1651 01:26:20,560 --> 01:26:23,800 Speaker 14: Yes, I got it, so, he says, Charlie was right. 1652 01:26:23,920 --> 01:26:26,840 Speaker 14: We should all strive to keep Thanksgiving going strong. It's 1653 01:26:26,840 --> 01:26:30,000 Speaker 14: an American holiday, it is a Christian holiday. It's hard 1654 01:26:30,080 --> 01:26:34,280 Speaker 14: to make gratitude marketable, which is why other holidays get 1655 01:26:34,360 --> 01:26:36,400 Speaker 14: more attention for their commercial opportunities. 1656 01:26:36,520 --> 01:26:39,519 Speaker 12: It's May God bless the Kirk family. Thank you very much, Kevin. 1657 01:26:39,760 --> 01:26:42,519 Speaker 4: Kevin Well said, Kevin, I love that it's so true. 1658 01:26:42,560 --> 01:26:46,080 Speaker 14: I mean, the other they're like they're dying for Thanksgiving 1659 01:26:46,160 --> 01:26:48,080 Speaker 14: to end so they can like slam the door and 1660 01:26:48,160 --> 01:26:50,760 Speaker 14: say and now it's Christmas shopping season, go out for black. 1661 01:26:51,200 --> 01:26:53,960 Speaker 4: This is what upsets me about celebrating Christmas in like 1662 01:26:54,120 --> 01:26:57,840 Speaker 4: after Halloween, because you're just short changing. 1663 01:26:57,920 --> 01:27:02,000 Speaker 14: The Thanksgiving and Thanksgiving is it is related Christmas, but 1664 01:27:02,080 --> 01:27:04,840 Speaker 14: it is not Christmas. It is a separate holiday. Yes, 1665 01:27:04,960 --> 01:27:06,840 Speaker 14: and we shouldn't just fold it in. 1666 01:27:07,200 --> 01:27:10,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree, I completely agree. Bill. Connect the dots here. 1667 01:27:11,000 --> 01:27:14,960 Speaker 4: We got to go kind of quick here between the 1668 01:27:15,360 --> 01:27:18,599 Speaker 4: first Thanksgiving and eighteen sixty three in that declaration by 1669 01:27:18,680 --> 01:27:19,400 Speaker 4: President Lincoln. 1670 01:27:23,200 --> 01:27:25,639 Speaker 1: Bill right, so they had an attitude when things were bad. 1671 01:27:25,680 --> 01:27:29,200 Speaker 6: You would have days of prayer, and when things got 1672 01:27:29,240 --> 01:27:31,000 Speaker 6: real bad, they had days of fasting and prayer. When 1673 01:27:31,040 --> 01:27:33,599 Speaker 6: things turned around, they had days of thanksgiving, and they 1674 01:27:33,640 --> 01:27:37,519 Speaker 6: were on an as needed basis. And so, as Blake mentioned, 1675 01:27:37,920 --> 01:27:41,840 Speaker 6: you had days of fasting during the Revolutionary War and 1676 01:27:41,880 --> 01:27:42,960 Speaker 6: then days of thanksgiving. 1677 01:27:43,840 --> 01:27:46,880 Speaker 1: You had threatened war with France. 1678 01:27:46,680 --> 01:27:49,200 Speaker 6: And John Adams has two days of fasting in prayer 1679 01:27:49,560 --> 01:27:52,519 Speaker 6: and then days of thanksgiving during when the British burned 1680 01:27:52,560 --> 01:27:56,080 Speaker 6: the White House. James Madison has a day of fasting 1681 01:27:56,120 --> 01:27:59,200 Speaker 6: and prayer and then a day of thanksgiving. During a 1682 01:27:59,280 --> 01:28:03,000 Speaker 6: cholera epidemic in eighteen forty nine went at one hundred 1683 01:28:03,000 --> 01:28:05,719 Speaker 6: and fifty thousand American side of Coller, you had Zachary 1684 01:28:05,800 --> 01:28:09,280 Speaker 6: Taylor had a day of fasting, and then Lincoln had 1685 01:28:09,479 --> 01:28:12,200 Speaker 6: two days of fasting and prayer during the Revolution, and 1686 01:28:12,280 --> 01:28:15,080 Speaker 6: then he made as Blake mentioned, the day of Thanksgiving 1687 01:28:15,120 --> 01:28:18,120 Speaker 6: an annual event. But it was a relationship with God. 1688 01:28:18,280 --> 01:28:21,960 Speaker 6: Now from Lincoln till now, it's an annual event. And 1689 01:28:22,840 --> 01:28:29,320 Speaker 6: matter of fact, it's the last Thursday in September. In November, 1690 01:28:29,960 --> 01:28:33,240 Speaker 6: FDR wanted to move it one week earlier so there'd 1691 01:28:33,240 --> 01:28:35,160 Speaker 6: be a next week of shopping before Christmas, and that 1692 01:28:35,240 --> 01:28:38,559 Speaker 6: became a campaign issue that the Republicans like, we're going 1693 01:28:38,600 --> 01:28:43,200 Speaker 6: to move Thanksgiving back to the original date. But it's 1694 01:28:43,240 --> 01:28:46,559 Speaker 6: always been biblical. It's always been thinking a monotheistic God. 1695 01:28:46,680 --> 01:28:50,320 Speaker 6: So you're leaving out a Buddhism and Hinduism. And it's 1696 01:28:50,640 --> 01:28:53,640 Speaker 6: also that you have the freedom like Jefferson had a 1697 01:28:53,760 --> 01:28:58,960 Speaker 6: day of Thanksgiving that the Continental Congress asked everybody to 1698 01:28:59,120 --> 01:29:01,160 Speaker 6: all the states subs urb and he's governor of Virginia, 1699 01:29:01,240 --> 01:29:03,600 Speaker 6: so he has Virginia observed a day of Thanksgiving. But 1700 01:29:03,720 --> 01:29:05,880 Speaker 6: it was voluntary, so they didn't want to have to 1701 01:29:05,920 --> 01:29:08,640 Speaker 6: be forced, but they wanted to be voluntary. And so 1702 01:29:08,840 --> 01:29:12,679 Speaker 6: voluntary worship of God is clearly Christian. It's not in Islam, 1703 01:29:13,240 --> 01:29:16,000 Speaker 6: and so they're referring to a God of the Bible, 1704 01:29:16,080 --> 01:29:16,960 Speaker 6: and of course many of. 1705 01:29:16,960 --> 01:29:19,639 Speaker 1: Them have proclamations and scriptures in there as well. 1706 01:29:20,560 --> 01:29:24,240 Speaker 4: That's great, really really well said Bill, And I love 1707 01:29:24,320 --> 01:29:27,280 Speaker 4: what you were talking about those presidents that were between 1708 01:29:28,320 --> 01:29:31,599 Speaker 4: Washington and Lincoln and how they had days of fasting 1709 01:29:31,720 --> 01:29:34,120 Speaker 4: and days of prayer and days of thanksgiving. I mean, 1710 01:29:34,880 --> 01:29:37,360 Speaker 4: how amazing would that be if you know the president 1711 01:29:37,400 --> 01:29:39,080 Speaker 4: of the United States called on a day of fasting 1712 01:29:39,160 --> 01:29:42,559 Speaker 4: and prayer. I mean, that would just be a complete 1713 01:29:42,640 --> 01:29:45,000 Speaker 4: paradigm shift from our current moment. And I'm sure it 1714 01:29:45,040 --> 01:29:48,799 Speaker 4: would be incredibly controversial and all of that, but we should. 1715 01:29:49,000 --> 01:29:52,519 Speaker 4: We absolutely should, because America is unique among the nations. 1716 01:29:52,600 --> 01:29:56,000 Speaker 4: We are a providential nation that was founded on Christian 1717 01:29:56,040 --> 01:30:00,240 Speaker 4: belief in God, and I think our origin story really 1718 01:30:00,560 --> 01:30:04,040 Speaker 4: demonstrates that. When we welcome back National Radio in just 1719 01:30:04,080 --> 01:30:06,759 Speaker 4: a few seconds, gentlemen, I'm gonna play one other clip 1720 01:30:06,960 --> 01:30:09,840 Speaker 4: that was one of Charlie's absolute favorites, and it's rush 1721 01:30:09,960 --> 01:30:14,439 Speaker 4: reflecting on the pilgrims who established this nation and that 1722 01:30:14,680 --> 01:30:17,599 Speaker 4: settled it originally, and it was one of Charlie's favorites. Again, 1723 01:30:17,680 --> 01:30:21,880 Speaker 4: we are in full thanksgiving evange evangelization mode here. We 1724 01:30:22,040 --> 01:30:25,519 Speaker 4: believe in times of hardship most of all. Yeah, amen, 1725 01:30:25,680 --> 01:30:29,600 Speaker 4: and this year it's uniquely important that we do it. 1726 01:30:29,720 --> 01:30:31,800 Speaker 4: It's uniquely important that we do it. So we'll be 1727 01:30:31,920 --> 01:30:33,800 Speaker 4: right back with National Radio in just one second. 1728 01:30:45,040 --> 01:30:50,080 Speaker 19: The hardiest working radio show in the business that Charlie Kirkshaw. 1729 01:30:51,600 --> 01:30:54,519 Speaker 4: All right, welcome back to our national radio audience. I'm 1730 01:30:54,560 --> 01:30:58,160 Speaker 4: gonna play this clip one of Charlie's Favorites one ninety four. 1731 01:31:00,240 --> 01:31:01,240 Speaker 10: They knew that they were. 1732 01:31:01,120 --> 01:31:05,360 Speaker 26: Going to face hardship, hardship like you and I don't know. 1733 01:31:06,520 --> 01:31:14,480 Speaker 26: But paramount importance to them was living freely and worshiping 1734 01:31:14,600 --> 01:31:18,439 Speaker 26: God according to the dictates of their own consciences, their 1735 01:31:18,479 --> 01:31:22,160 Speaker 26: own beliefs. That's what they were denied the freedom to do. 1736 01:31:24,200 --> 01:31:24,759 Speaker 1: In England. 1737 01:31:25,120 --> 01:31:26,360 Speaker 10: But because. 1738 01:31:27,479 --> 01:31:31,839 Speaker 26: Of the biblical precedent set forth in scripture, they never doubted, 1739 01:31:32,120 --> 01:31:35,920 Speaker 26: because of their faith in God, that their experiment would work. 1740 01:31:36,000 --> 01:31:38,160 Speaker 26: They never doubted they would get the new world. They 1741 01:31:38,240 --> 01:31:40,719 Speaker 26: never doubted that once they got there they would thrive. 1742 01:31:42,200 --> 01:31:46,320 Speaker 26: During that first winter, remember they arrived in November. During 1743 01:31:46,400 --> 01:31:51,599 Speaker 26: that first winter, half of them, including William Bradford's own wife, died. 1744 01:31:52,560 --> 01:31:53,800 Speaker 19: Spring finally came. 1745 01:31:55,240 --> 01:31:59,160 Speaker 26: They did meet the Indians, the Native Americans who were there, 1746 01:32:00,280 --> 01:32:05,880 Speaker 26: who did help them. You know, Thanksgiving is actually explained 1747 01:32:05,960 --> 01:32:09,880 Speaker 26: in some textbooks as a holiday for which the Pilgrims 1748 01:32:09,920 --> 01:32:12,360 Speaker 26: gave thanks to the Indians for saving their lives. 1749 01:32:12,880 --> 01:32:15,600 Speaker 1: It wasn't that that happened, but. 1750 01:32:17,600 --> 01:32:24,960 Speaker 26: Thanksgiving was a devout expression of gratitude the Pilgrims to 1751 01:32:25,120 --> 01:32:32,920 Speaker 26: God for their survival and everything that was a part 1752 01:32:33,040 --> 01:32:33,240 Speaker 26: of it. 1753 01:32:35,800 --> 01:32:38,840 Speaker 4: Doctor Jerry Newcomb, final thoughts to you as we wrap 1754 01:32:38,960 --> 01:32:39,400 Speaker 4: up the hour. 1755 01:32:40,880 --> 01:32:44,080 Speaker 27: Well, the Pilgrims were a small group of Christian who 1756 01:32:44,160 --> 01:32:48,120 Speaker 27: were basically Christians that were outcasts in their own society, 1757 01:32:48,600 --> 01:32:50,880 Speaker 27: and all they wanted to do was worship Jesus and 1758 01:32:50,960 --> 01:32:53,200 Speaker 27: the purity of the conscience and is Doctor d. James 1759 01:32:53,280 --> 01:32:58,040 Speaker 27: Kennedy once noted America began as a church relocation project. 1760 01:32:57,760 --> 01:33:01,040 Speaker 13: In the sense that the Pilgrims were the ones he's 1761 01:33:01,120 --> 01:33:01,639 Speaker 13: talking about. 1762 01:33:01,720 --> 01:33:05,320 Speaker 27: They went from this place north of London, about one 1763 01:33:05,400 --> 01:33:08,519 Speaker 27: hundred and fifty miles. Then they made it to Holland 1764 01:33:08,640 --> 01:33:11,120 Speaker 27: where they could at least be tolerated, and then eventually 1765 01:33:11,240 --> 01:33:13,840 Speaker 27: they made it to the New World. So in that sense, 1766 01:33:14,200 --> 01:33:16,400 Speaker 27: in the sense that the Pilgrims cast a long and 1767 01:33:16,560 --> 01:33:20,160 Speaker 27: positive shadow in what would become the United States of America, 1768 01:33:20,479 --> 01:33:24,560 Speaker 27: that's a fantastic observation. They began that whole process of 1769 01:33:24,680 --> 01:33:27,080 Speaker 27: self rule under God that we've talked about with the 1770 01:33:27,160 --> 01:33:28,240 Speaker 27: Mayflower Compact. 1771 01:33:28,720 --> 01:33:32,479 Speaker 13: They had a form of socialism imposed. 1772 01:33:32,000 --> 01:33:35,080 Speaker 27: On them by the people who made the loans, so 1773 01:33:35,240 --> 01:33:38,720 Speaker 27: they even have the voyage, and they got rid of 1774 01:33:38,840 --> 01:33:42,960 Speaker 27: that and instead gave free enterprise and they flourished as 1775 01:33:43,040 --> 01:33:47,400 Speaker 27: they made God the center of their whole settlement. And 1776 01:33:47,680 --> 01:33:50,360 Speaker 27: just one last observation in a film I made about this, 1777 01:33:50,560 --> 01:33:53,839 Speaker 27: about the Pilgrims, and Charlie, by the way, a commended 1778 01:33:53,880 --> 01:33:55,400 Speaker 27: one of the films I made, you know, in this 1779 01:33:55,479 --> 01:33:58,920 Speaker 27: whole series called the Foundation of American Liberty series, and 1780 01:33:59,000 --> 01:34:01,720 Speaker 27: Bill Fetter is age a major guests. Anyway, So I 1781 01:34:01,880 --> 01:34:07,880 Speaker 27: interviewed the direct descendant of the de facto pastor of 1782 01:34:08,000 --> 01:34:08,760 Speaker 27: the Pilgrims. 1783 01:34:09,000 --> 01:34:13,400 Speaker 13: His name was William Brewster.
