This is Undaunted Life, a man's podcast.
0:21
I'm your host Kyle Thompson, let's get into it.
0:24
For you form my inward parts, you needed me together in my mother's womb.
0:28
I praise you for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
0:31
Wonderful are your works.
0:32
My soul knows it very well.
0:33
My frame was not hidden from you when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in
0:37
the depths of the earth.
0:38
Your eyes saw my unformed substance in your book were written every one of them, the days
0:42
that were formed for me.
0:43
When is yet there was none of them?
0:45
That is Psalm 139, 13 through 16 guys.
0:48
Welcome to show day.
0:49
We're so glad to have you here with us.
0:50
Keep that scripture in mind as we get into today's episode and guys, if you have not left
0:54
a five star review and a few sentences, let us know why you like this show.
0:57
That's one way to get the show out to other people as opposed to you just sharing it with
1:00
them.
1:01
So if you like what we're doing here, please share that around.
1:02
Also, we are mainly a donation ministry, we're mainly a donation thing.
1:06
And so if you want more content like this, if you want to support some of the crazy stuff
1:10
we have coming in 2023, best way to do that is to hop on board.
1:14
It's guys like you given 20 bucks a month, 50 bucks a month, 500 bucks a month, whatever
1:18
that are helping us create this content to help men around the globe be equipped to push
1:21
back darkness to go to undaunted.life/donate.
1:24
That will be in the show notes.
1:25
Again, just a reminder, last we got talked about this, but we are partnered up with Origin
1:29
so you guys can try out all their great products on the Origin side.
1:32
They've got geez, the best jujitsu geez on the planet.
1:34
They've got boots.
1:35
They've got jeans.
1:36
They've got some really dope new boots that have like denim material in it.
1:39
And then on the jocko fuel side, they've got the jocko go energy drinks.
1:42
They've got all the supplements.
1:44
They've got the mulk.
1:45
They've got everything over there, but I do have a new promo code.
1:47
So for months now, I've been talking about the promo code Kyle, but some jerk put my
1:51
promo code on some website somewhere.
1:53
So the new promo code, if you go to undaunted or the new promo code is undaunted.
1:57
There you go.
1:58
So origin main.com or origin USA dot com that is in the show notes.
2:01
You can use my promo code undaunted to get 10% off your order.
2:05
And guys, also something that I haven't talked about that I, you know, released here a couple
2:09
of months ago is I have a new abortion resource for you guys.
2:12
So that's going to be important considering some of the subject matter of today's episode,
2:15
but it's a white paper and this white paper is called how to engage the top 18 pro abortion
2:20
arguments.
2:21
And this is actually a speech that I will travel around and give.
2:24
It's a speech that I gave here recently, even at my home church, how to engage the top 18
2:28
pro abortion arguments is the white paper that goes along with that because the, the
2:32
name of the, the speech is just how to engage pro abortion arguments.
2:35
But I actually kind of break it down at the end because we spend a lot of time actually
2:39
digging into individual arguments.
2:40
Like what do you say when somebody says my body, my choice or you only care about the
2:45
baby before they're born or what about in the case of rape and incest or, you know, even
2:50
if we wanted this baby to go to turn, there wouldn't be one of anyone available to adopt
2:53
it.
2:54
I equip you guys to respond to all of that.
2:56
So in the show notes or right here, you can go to undaunted.life/abortion undaunted.life/abortion.
3:03
Trade me your email address and I'll shoot you this over to you in a PDF form.
3:06
So it'll be a really, really good thing for you guys.
3:09
So today, in the quick, or sorry, it used to be the quick, quick hitters because I did
3:12
that once, but in the quick hitters segment, we're going to discuss Trump preemptively
3:16
attacking his potential 2024 Republican primary opponents.
3:20
A federal judge ruling that Joe Biden's student loan debt cancellation is unconstitutional.
3:25
Matt Walsh from the Daily Wire refusing to use God or the Bible in his arguments, the
3:29
US quietly putting troops in Ukraine and a UFC fighter boldly preaches the gospel in
3:34
a Muslim country.
3:36
So the first thing that we need to talk about today and obviously you can see this from
3:39
the title today's episode is baby murder wins them in terms.
3:43
Because if I look back on the midterms, that is one thing that basically sticks out to
3:47
me like a sore thumb is it seems like I was right.
3:51
And we'll get to that.
3:52
But the midterms were supposed to be a clean sweep of sorts for the Republican party.
3:56
And as we all saw, and as I talked about on last week's show in detail, that certainly
4:00
didn't happen.
4:01
And unfortunately ended up being a clean sweep for people that love abortion.
4:06
Okay.
4:07
So last week on the episode, I briefly mentioned that there were pro-abortion measures that
4:11
were approved in five states last week.
4:14
Okay.
4:15
You know, some were, you know, meant to be pro-abortion.
4:18
Some were meant to be, you know, pro-life legislation, but they all went the way of the
4:21
pro-abortion crowd, the pro-choice crowd.
4:24
And that was in California, Michigan, Vermont, Montana, and Kentucky.
4:28
But I want to dig into detail on all of these and we're not going to spend a ton of time
4:32
on this, but I do want to give you a little bit more context as to what all was approved
4:36
into those states because when I was preparing last week's episode, we didn't have the final
4:39
numbers.
4:40
We didn't have the results.
4:41
So let's start with California.
4:42
This, uh, what was, you know, on the ballot in California was proposition one.
4:46
And that would add an amendment to the California state constitution to enshrine the right of
4:51
abortion constitutionally in the state of California.
4:54
So the text of proposition one states this quote, the state shall not deny or interfere
4:59
with an individual's reproductive freedom in their most intimate decisions, which includes
5:04
their fundamental right to choose to have an abortion and their fundamental right to choose
5:08
to refuse contraceptives, unquote.
5:11
So not surprisingly, 65% of California voters voted to approve proposition one, which effectively
5:17
makes, this is crazy, but it effectively makes abortion legal in California at any point in
5:24
the pregnancy, including the day of birth for any reason paid for by taxpayer dollars.
5:30
Okay.
5:31
So that's what's going on in California.
5:32
Now let's go to Michigan.
5:33
So Michigan had something called proposition three, and this is according to CBS news.
5:37
The proposition amends article one of the state's constitution to add a section that states
5:41
quote, every individual has a fundamental right to reproductive freedom, which entails
5:45
the right to make an effectuate decisions about all matters relating to pregnancy, including
5:50
but not limit to prenatal care, childbirth, postpartum care, contraception, sterilization,
5:55
abortion care, abortion care, miscarriage management and infertility care, unquote.
6:00
So the amendment states that while the state can regulate abortion, it cannot prohibit an
6:05
abortion that a medical professional deems necessary to protect the physical and mental
6:10
health of a pregnant person.
6:12
Again, that's directly from that a pregnant person as if we don't know that that can only
6:17
be a woman.
6:18
But again, they kind of sneak in the language of not just the woman's physical health, but
6:22
also their mental health, which basically means abortion for any reason and we don't care.
6:26
55.8% of Michigan voters voted to approve that measure.
6:30
So not entirely surprising.
6:32
And then we'll get into another state where that was not entirely spread surprising and
6:35
that's Vermont.
6:36
So they had article 22, the reproductive Liberty amendment.
6:39
So this would add an amendment to the Vermont state constitution to enshrine the right to
6:44
abortion.
6:45
So this is a quote from the legislation here.
6:47
It intends to protect quote, personal reproductive autonomy, unless justified by a compelling
6:53
state interest.
6:54
Unquote.
6:55
Now, as you can imagine, at no point in the legislation, do they even describe what a
6:59
compelling state interest would be in keeping someone alive because typically the most basic
7:06
argument that you can make is the compelling state interest in someone living is that they
7:10
will live and then eventually pay taxes in that state, which will help you pay for everything
7:14
that you want for that state.
7:17
But 76% of Vermont voters voted to support that measure effectively.
7:21
It makes abortion legal in Vermont at any point in the pregnancy, including the day of birth
7:25
for any reason paid for by taxpayer dollars, just like California.
7:29
Now there weren't a whole lot of pro life people that had any hope that California, Michigan
7:33
and Vermont would vote in any way other than they did.
7:35
But then there were two outliers that was very shocking how these turned out.
7:39
So let's start with the state of Kentucky.
7:40
There was an initiative initiative to amend the state constitution to explicitly state
7:45
that there is no right to an abortion.
7:48
Okay.
7:49
So if approved, it would have made it nearly impossible to legally challenge anti abortion
7:53
legislation in Kentucky, okay, 52% of Kentucky voters, a deep, deep red state voted against
8:02
the measure.
8:03
So it failed.
8:05
And then we get to Montana.
8:06
There was a ballot initiative that would criminalize health care providers.
8:10
This is just crazy.
8:11
I can't believe I'm even having to say this sentence, but it would criminalize health
8:14
care providers if they did not take reasonable actions to save an infant born alive, including
8:22
after an attempted abortion.
8:24
So let's set the stage.
8:25
So you're a woman, you're, you're in there, you're getting an abortion.
8:29
That's after the point of viability.
8:30
So this baby can live outside the womb.
8:32
I just posted even here recently that there was a 21 week of gestation baby named Curtis
8:37
that is alive and outside the womb and thriving.
8:40
We need to pray for that baby.
8:41
Go to my Instagram.
8:42
If you want to see more information on that, but imagine a 21, a 25, a 40 week gestation
8:49
baby.
8:50
That is going to be aborted, but instead the abortion doesn't turn out to be successful,
8:57
which is to say that the baby lives.
8:59
Okay.
9:00
So Montana put forward a ballot initiative that would make it illegal for the medical professionals
9:07
to not care for that human life that is now alive outside the womb.
9:11
It's always been alive from the moment of conception, but now it is alive, geographically located
9:16
outside of the womb.
9:18
52.4% of Montana voters voted against this measure.
9:26
So 52.4% of these voters in Montana said that if a baby were born alive, even after a botched
9:35
abortion, that we cannot come after the medical care providers for essentially giving that
9:40
child the death penalty, setting them to the side and waiting for them to expire in Montana.
9:47
Okay.
9:48
Now the thing about it is I've talked about this a lot.
9:53
Democrats have poured literally, literally just in this midterm cycle, millions of dollars,
10:00
tens of millions and hundreds of millions of dollars into this one issue of all the spending
10:07
on all ads for Democrats in this entire cycle and every single race.
10:11
The number one thing that they spent money on was the abortion issue.
10:14
The number one thing that, and again, there's a ton of misinformation.
10:19
They're telling women that, Hey, if you get an ectopic pregnancy, you're not going to
10:22
be able to get treated for that.
10:23
Hey, if you have a miscarriage, you could potentially go to jail for that.
10:28
They're basically saying all these lies to women and women and stupid men are buying
10:32
into this nonsense and it worked.
10:35
It worked like a charm because I've been saying for months on this show that I had an inkling
10:41
that abortion would loom very, very large in the midterms, but I was sensitive to other
10:46
people's arguments.
10:47
You know, we had the guys on from 40 days for life.
10:49
You know, there are a lot of other political pundits that I listened to that I trust their
10:51
opinions and they're like, you know, listen, this is not going to be a major issue.
10:55
This isn't even going to be in the top five of major issues because the economy is too
10:58
bad.
10:59
We're on the brink of nuclear war over in Ukraine.
11:03
The Southern border is a porous border.
11:05
It basically doesn't exist.
11:06
We have fentanyl overdoses that are far exceeding any other deaths in the country right now.
11:11
COVID still think like whatever they gave all these other different reasons why abortion
11:15
would not be a major, major issue, but it just ended up being a major issue.
11:20
And Democrats got exactly what they wanted, which was to convince people of the extremism
11:26
of people on the right of pro life people and how they're basically coming after their
11:30
personal bodily autonomy or the bodily autonomy of the women in their lives that they love.
11:35
Okay, but now we need to talk about why we know that.
11:38
So we're a week after the midterms and there's still our races that haven't been called,
11:42
which, you know, eventually we'll have to talk way, way, way more about that.
11:45
But what was supposed to happen is that suburban women were supposed to, you know, crash hard
11:52
for Republicans in the midterm cycle.
11:53
And so were independents and neither one of those things happened.
11:57
Okay.
11:58
So I think that the some of the exit polling showed that independence broke actually one
12:01
point for Democrats.
12:02
It was like 49% for Democrats, 48% for Republicans.
12:06
And I don't know what the other couple of percentages would have gone to, but exit polling
12:09
in this showed that 68% 68% of unmarried women voted for Democrats in the midterms.
12:20
That's a 37 point margin over Republican candidates, 37 point margin over Republican candidates.
12:26
So for comparison, the same poll, the same exit poll found that married men broke for
12:30
Republicans by 20 points, married women broke by broke for Republicans by 14 points, unmarried
12:37
men broke Republican by seven points again, married men, 20 points for Republican, married
12:43
women, 14 points Republican, unmarried men, seven points Republican, but 68%, a 37 point
12:51
margin to the Democratic side for unmarried women.
12:54
And another status, 72% of women between the ages of 18 and 29, which is a very, very important
13:00
cohort of voters going forward, obviously voted Democrat, 72% of 18 to 29 year old women
13:06
voted Democrat.
13:07
Okay.
13:08
Now, there are a lot of reasons for this, but I'm going to break it down to just a few
13:11
because I could spend a lot of time talking about this.
13:14
One of the first reasons I want to talk about is that single liberal women want to make
13:19
sure that they can have sex with whomever they wish and to be able to kill any baby conceived
13:23
in those acts if they so choose.
13:26
Because again, we've bought into this second, third and now fourth wave, feminist lie and
13:32
the sexual revolution lie that if you're a woman and you can't spread your legs for every
13:37
available dude that you deem worthy to engage in this act with you, that somehow you're
13:43
missing out that it's all those bonded and long dressed women that, you know, just sit
13:48
at home and have sex with one man and have all these kids and take care of them and teach
13:53
them at home and cook and, you know, make sure that everything's squared away at the
13:56
house, that that is not the life that you want.
13:59
What you want is that corner office position.
14:02
You want to work, you know, a hundred billable hours a week at some law firm somewhere, you
14:07
know, you want to be the dominant boss be you want to do all those different things
14:12
and you want to be able to drink and go out and buy as many are money dresses or, you
14:18
know, belt buckles or whatever it is you want to you want to go on vacations.
14:21
You want to sleep with as many men as you want to, but you don't want any of the consequences
14:24
that could come from that decision and they would say consequences, right?
14:28
Obviously it's a beautiful thing when a new life has been created, but these people would
14:31
look at that as a consequence.
14:33
So that's one reason.
14:35
Another reason for why it broke this way in the midterms is since many of these women do
14:39
not intend to ever be in a loving monogamous marriage at any point, they need the United
14:48
States government to be their sugar daddy because again, with these women don't have
14:53
anyone that can take care of them, right?
14:55
Because they've bought into the lie that they need to be self sufficient.
14:58
They don't need a man.
14:59
They need a man to basically get their, you know, sexual rocks off, but they don't need
15:03
a man to support them.
15:04
They don't need any of those different things.
15:05
And what they realize is if they're not one of those corner office boss bees, then at some
15:09
point they are going to need some help and who's going to be there to help them?
15:14
That's government sugar daddy, that's going to be available to help them.
15:18
And also the US government sugar daddy is going to ensure that they can continue to kill
15:23
their children as a, as a form of birth control, whoops, I, you know, I forgot to tell the
15:28
guy to wear a condom.
15:29
I got pregnant.
15:30
Good thing I can just run down to Planned Parenthood real quick, even in one of those
15:33
mobile clinics that's sitting on the other side of the border of my backwards red state.
15:38
And another reason here, and this is perhaps the, the most nefarious reason.
15:42
This has been part of the plan for Democrats for decades.
15:46
And we're just now seeing the fruits of it because there has been a target.
15:50
A lot of people have spent a lot of time on this.
15:51
So I'm just going to basically just be skimming the surface, but there has been a targeted
15:54
destruction of the nuclear family in the West since the 1950s or so.
15:59
So in since the 1950s, if you look at any sociological data, marriage rates have plummeted.
16:05
Single motherhood rates have skyrocketed fatherlessness has exploded.
16:09
We've talked about that a lot on the show.
16:11
And also there's been a targeted destruction of communities, even the concept of communities.
16:17
Look at the book bowling alone, but specifically communities of faith.
16:23
And because of these two targeted destructions, right, destruction of the nuclear family destruction
16:28
of communities, specifically communities of faith, it has created an entire class of people.
16:34
In this case, a lot of single women, unmarried women that have to depend on the government
16:39
to be there for them, cradle to grave.
16:43
They have to.
16:44
There's no other choice.
16:46
I saw a tweet as I was looking at the stuff for this episode.
16:49
It's from someone named Inez Steppmann, and I believe that's, that's a gal.
16:52
She's a senior policy analyst at independent women's forum.
16:55
She tweeted this, we have to reckon with this as a political force.
16:59
On the right, we love to mock and complain about this, but millennials will have the
17:04
highest proportion of unmarried and childless women hitting 40, probably in all of human
17:09
history, and they will vote to ruin your life.
17:14
Man, like that is a damnable thing, but gosh, can you say that Inez is wrong here?
17:22
Because I can't because I think the right may have gotten a big smack in the face in
17:25
these midterms by just whistling past the graveyard on this group of people.
17:30
They were going after suburban women, but a lot of those women are married with children.
17:35
They just happened to not like Donald Trump very much.
17:37
They broke heavily for Joe Biden in 2020, but on where we're at right now, these women
17:43
are concerned about the amount of money it's costing them to fill up their SUVs with gas
17:47
and to go to the grocery store and get just the normal things they need for their family,
17:51
right?
17:52
But millennials, a lot of millennial single childless women will be hitting the age of
17:57
40.
17:58
These are not conservatives, nor will they be conservatives.
18:02
And as I was thinking about this, I almost named the episode something in this vein,
18:06
but it's almost like we found something that conservatism can't fix because I mean, there's
18:11
literally an endless list of things that conservatism as a political philosophy cannot fix.
18:17
The conservatism certainly can't fix the single narcissistic lost woman problem.
18:24
It just can't.
18:26
So the, the, the conservatives simply have no real selling point for this voting cohort.
18:33
Because the, I mean, unless they rid themselves of all their foundational conservative principles,
18:38
like just think about it.
18:39
What are conservatives supposed to say to these single women, vote Republican will make it
18:43
harder for you to get abortions.
18:44
We don't think you should get incentives to say single.
18:47
You need to believe in God, get married, have kids, embrace traditional gender roles and
18:50
focus on your family over your career.
18:54
That may be true.
18:56
All of those things might be true, but they're not going to be sold on that because a lot
19:02
of what you're saying there is like, Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, you shouldn't be focusing
19:06
on yourself here.
19:09
You shouldn't be focusing on your career.
19:11
You should be focused on getting a man, supporting that man, having children with that man, taking
19:17
care of those children and living a fulfilling life, doing those things, doing the things
19:22
that pre second wave feminism, everybody thought, yeah, this is great for society overall and
19:28
also great for women.
19:30
It's also uplifting and wonderful all at the same time, but conservatism can't answer that
19:36
for these people.
19:38
So you know, everybody can see a track, at least somewhat for how conservatives can go
19:43
after other voting minority groups.
19:45
So you've heard a lot of talk about how they're making inroads with the black community.
19:48
And again, I hate saying the community, but you get what I'm saying.
19:51
The black community, the Latino community, you know, single mothers, people that, you
19:56
know, would run or care about school boards, conservatives are doing well in all of those
20:00
areas.
20:01
But this is one where they just can't again, unless they just pretend that that nothing's
20:06
going to happen, right, that they, you know, that that with this group that they're all
20:09
sudden going to just change their stripes.
20:11
I just don't know that that's possible.
20:13
LinkedIn is pretty amazing at helping you grow your small business.
20:17
We cannot make your email response time faster.

And what these women need more than anything, guys, is, wait for it, a man, but not any
20:50
man, a very specific man, and his name is Jesus.
20:56
Because for a lot of these women, they went to school.
20:59
They got a great degree, again, about 60% of the people getting degrees now in this country
21:03
are women.
21:04
That's going to have a major deleterious effect on our society, but we don't have enough
21:07
time to get in that today.
21:09
But a lot of these women, they do get out.
21:11
They work for companies that are desperate to have them and desperate to keep them.
21:14
So they do make good money.
21:17
And then they have the government taking care of everything that isn't really covered.
21:21
And what do they need Jesus for?
21:25
It's almost impossible for a, you know, a rich man to go into heaven, you know, it'd
21:29
be easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle.
21:31
We've seen that from the gospels, but at the same time, what are these women looking for?
21:36
They're looking for stability in a life that they themselves can create, where they are
21:40
the master of their own domain.
21:42
And as any of us that have accepted the blood of Christ, that have turned to him and repented
21:46
and put our faith in his sacrifice for us for the propitiation of our sins, we get it.
21:53
We get that no matter what our degree is, no matter how many zeroes we have in our bank
21:56
account or any of those types of things are commas or whatever you want to say, that all
22:01
that is nothing.
22:02
It's basically dung aside from having everlasting life.
22:08
That's what these women need.
22:09
Again, conservatism doesn't necessarily get you there, but the gospel does, but I do want
22:14
to talk about this.
22:15
And this was the last minute addition to my notes here today, because I was just going
22:17
to talk about the midterms and lament and just as a quick side note, I'm getting messages
22:21
and emails now from people that are like, Kyle, you need to get your head out of the
22:23
sand.
22:24
You know, you're, you're talking about this.
22:25
And look, the elections being stolen.
22:27
And all these times now, it's like, okay, our Republicans going to be the ones now that
22:30
every time they lose an election, it was stolen because I'm going to be honest with you.
22:33
There are some things that sink to high heaven about this.
22:35
One of the main things is like, how can every single election count that is delayed, always
22:40
go for Democrats?
22:42
How many times have you seen an election that took over a week to count?
22:45
And they're like, oh, it broke for the Republican.
22:47
It almost never happens.
22:48
That stinks to high heaven.
22:49
How about the, you know, the video cameras that are supposed to be doing live feeds of
22:53
all these counting stations, all of a sudden going dark for hours and hours and hours.
22:57
And then after they come back on magically, it's as if they found all these votes that
23:00
go for the blue candidate, like that stinks to high heaven.
23:03
The thing about it is, is Donald Trump says that the 2020 election was stolen and a lot
23:08
of you in this audience believe that, but he didn't prove it in court.
23:12
He would get in front of a microphone and he would talk about and he would send out his
23:14
myriad of lawyers, lawyers, because he just kept like going through these lawyers and
23:18
he would have these people come out and say these, these incendiary things in public.
23:22
But then when he had a chance to prove it in court, he didn't have the goods.
23:25
So I don't care what Dinesh D'Souza says on some random, you know, a video that he makes
23:29
or something like that.
23:30
If you don't prove it in court, you got nothing.
23:33
And so if you're out there right now, spouting conspiracy theories of which you have no tangible
23:37
evidence, you might be really, really careful about that.
23:40
But we do need to talk about everything that happened in the midterms and kind of come
23:44
out a little bit, kind of, kind of come back out and float over the situation because I'm
23:48
as disappointed as every other Republican right now that it's a 100% certainty that the Democrats
23:53
will keep the Senate and it's looking like Republicans might have the house by like two
23:59
or three votes by or by two or three people, which, which means a lot of legislation Joe
24:05
Biden will be able to force through because Democrats are going to be able to peel off
24:09
five to 10 Republicans on just about every piece of legislation.
24:12
We can assume, but we have to look back at the dominant news story of the year.
24:19
And that is the Supreme Court of the United States overturning Roe v. Wade and Planned
24:22
Parenthood v. Casey.
24:23
Again, we, it's been several months since then, the news cycle has turned over several times
24:28
since then, but that's the dominant story of the year.
24:32
So, and this was pointed out by Ross Dauffit.
24:34
He writes for the New York Times and Albert Mueller talked about that on his show on Monday.
24:39
But if you had to look at it before the overturning of Roe v. Wade, so let's go back to like
24:43
May of this year in someone were to give you the option and you had complete control over
24:50
this entire situation.
24:51
They said, here's your two options.
24:53
Number one, you can have the Republicans taking over the Senate and the House in November
24:59
in the midterm elections, or you can have the overturning of Roe v. Wade and Planned
25:04
Parenthood v. Casey.
25:05
Those are your only two options, which would you like?
25:09
I would hope that everybody in this audience, certainly me, we would go for the overturning
25:13
of Roe v. Wade.
25:14
Now, again, we were convinced in romance for months that the overturning of Roe v. Wade
25:19
and Planned Parenthood v. Casey was going to have nothing to do with the midterms.
25:22
And that looks like that.
25:24
That's not what happened.
25:25
It obviously had a tremendous effect and probably swayed the midterms towards the Democratic
25:29
Party.
25:30
We know that now.
25:31
Again, keep your conspiracy theories to yourself until you have hard evidence.
25:34
But wouldn't we take that trade?
25:37
So again, the name of this episode today is baby murder wins the midterms, but it was
25:41
worth it.
25:43
I mean, how many elections are Republicans willing to lose into the future to make sure
25:48
that millions of babies can be saved, because just so far this year, dozens of abortion
25:53
facilities have been closed.
25:54
And I think the last estimate I saw is over 10,000 babies have been spared from slaughter.
25:59
So far, that's 10,000 people that are going to live outside the womb, guys.
26:06
That's a big deal.
26:07
That is a big, big deal.
26:09
So again, I'm very, very disappointed in how the midterms turned out.
26:12
I think there's a lot of turnover that needs to happen with Republican leadership.
26:16
I think there's some chicanery going on with cocaine, Mitch McConnell and how much money
26:20
he didn't spend on certain races.
26:22
He dumped way more money into an Alaska, you know, Senate race when it was a Republican
26:26
versus a Republican, and he didn't dump the money into Arizona.
26:29
He didn't dump the money into Georgia.
26:30
He didn't dump the money into Nevada.
26:32
And those are the ones that look like it's going to be turning over so the Democrats keep
26:35
the Senate.
26:36
I get all that.
26:37
I'm frustrated, guys.
26:38
But if I'm right, and if people that, you know, are coming around to this realization
26:42
are now right as well, that abortion and the overturning of Roe v. Wade, you know, led
26:46
to that.
26:47
I'm all here for it.
26:48
I'll take that every day of the week and twice on Sunday.
26:51
All right, guys, we're going to hit the quick hitters now.
26:53
So let's go into the first one here.
26:55
Donald Trump preemptively attacking his potential 2024 Republican primary opponent.
26:59
So specifically, Donald Trump decided that it would be a great idea to attack Florida
27:06
governor Ron DeSantis and Virginia governor Glenn Yunken.
27:09
Okay.
27:10
And he said some things about Ron DeSantis, you know, a few days before the midterms,
27:15
which is a, you know, colossally stupid thing to say.
27:18
But two days after the midterms, he put out on true social again, his, his social media
27:22
thing that no one sees.
27:23
They take screenshots of it and post it on Twitter.
27:26
And yes, I'm going to read this entire thing to you because if you read the entire thing,
27:30
you really have to reckon with what exactly is being said.
27:33
And at first, I thought that this maybe was a joke, but then it was confirmed that there
27:36
was, this was real.
27:37
So again, this is November the 10th of 2022 statement by Donald J. Trump, 40 for the president
27:41
of the United States of America.
27:43
So let's go into it here.
27:45
News Corp, which is Fox, the Wall Street Journal and the no longer great New York Post bring
27:49
back coal.
27:50
I don't know what COL is.
27:52
And all for the governor, Ron DeSantis, again, not one of his better nicknames, an average
27:57
Republican governor with great public relations who didn't have, have to close up his state,
28:02
but did, unlike other Republican governors, whose overall numbers for a Republican were
28:06
just average middle of the pack, including COVID and who has the advantages of sunshine,
28:11
where people from badly run States up north would go no matter who the governor was just
28:15
like I did.
28:16
Guys, that was all one sentence.
28:17
Let's keep going.
28:18
Ron came to me in desperate shape in 2017.
28:21
He was politically dead, losing in a landslide to a very good agricultural commissioner, Adam
28:25
Putnam, who was loaded up with cash and great poll numbers.
28:28
Ron had low approval, bad polls and no money, but he said that if I would endorse him,
28:32
he could win.
28:33
I didn't know Adam.
28:34
So I said, let me give it a shot, Ron.
28:36
When I endorsed him, it was as though to use a bad term, a nuclear weapon went off years
28:42
later.
28:43
They were the exact words that Robert or Adam Putnam used in describing Ron's endorsement.
28:47
He said, I went from having it made with no competition to immediately getting absolutely
28:51
clobbered after your endorsement.
28:53
I then got run by the star of the Democratic Party, Andrew Gilliam, who was later revealed
28:57
to be a crack head by having two massive rallies with tens of thousands of people at each one.
29:02
I also fixed his campaign, which had completely fallen apart.
29:05
I was all in for Ron and he beat Gilliam.
29:08
But after the race, when votes were being stolen by the corrupt election process in Broward
29:12
County and Ron was going down 10,000 10,000 votes a day, along with now Senator Rick Scott,
29:17
I sent in the FBI and the US attorneys and the ballot that theft immediately ended just
29:22
prior to them running out of the votes necessary to win.
29:24
I stopped his election from being stolen.
29:26
And now Ron DeSankdomonius is playing games.
29:29
The fake news asks him if he's going to run for president if president Trump runs and
29:34
he says, I'm only focused on the governor's race.
29:37
I'm not looking into the future.
29:38
Well, in terms of loyalty in class, that's really not the right answer.
29:42
This is just like 2015 and 2016, a media assault collusion.
29:46
When Fox News fought me on the end until to the end until I won, and then they couldn't
29:51
have been nicer or more supportive after the Wall Street Journal loved low energy Jeb Bush
29:56
and a succession of other people as they rapidly declared or disappeared from site, finally
30:01
falling in line with me after I easily knocked them out one by one.
30:04
We're in exactly the same position now.
30:06
They will keep coming after us, MAGA, but ultimately we will win, put America first, and make America
30:11
great again.
30:12
Okay.
30:13
So that was him going after Ron DeSankdomonius.
30:15
A day later, he posted this on True Social.
30:19
This is ridiculous and stunning young kin.
30:21
So as he spelled, this was capital Y-O-U-N-G space, capital K-I-N.
30:26
So young kin taking Glenn Youngkin's last name and splitting it into two separate names.
30:30
Young kin.
30:31
Now that's an interesting take.
30:32
Sounds Chinese, doesn't it?
30:34
In Virginia, couldn't have won without me.
30:36
I endorsed him, did a very big Trump rally for him telephonically, got maggot to vote
30:40
for him, or he couldn't have come close to winning.
30:43
But he knows that and admits it besides having a hard time with the Dems in Virginia, but
30:48
he'll get it done.
30:50
So there's the 40th of the president of the United States.
30:52
Again, the guy that I voted for in 2020.
30:55
So here's some thoughts.
30:57
After reading those statements from him, which are confirmed to be from him, does this sound
31:01
like the guy that you want to be the leader of the Republican Party in 2024?
31:08
Because again, for a lot of you, it's like, well, he was, he's been that way the entire
31:10
time he's been in politics and you would be right.
31:13
But to go after these, these superstars in his own party, because he thinks they might
31:19
run for president in 2024, is that the guy you want?
31:23
Because you're going to get to make that call over the next couple of years.
31:26
Another thought is that Trump was bulletproof in 2015 and 2016.
31:31
He absolutely was every time he said something crazy.
31:33
I remember whenever he said something about like, uh, making Kelly being on her period
31:36
or something like that, I was like, Oh, there goes his presidential, uh, hopes, and it just
31:40
only made him more popular somehow, but he's not bulletproof anymore, like far from it.
31:46
So whether you believe in the deep state or not, and I obviously have some, some belief
31:49
that the deep state is going after guys like Trump, because they don't want him to actually
31:53
drain the swamp.
31:54
Cause if you look at the four years he was in office, he didn't drain the swamp.
31:56
If anything, he made the swamp, the swamp, you know, more, more strong and bigger and
32:00
all those different things.
32:01
But everything he said and did in 2015 and 2016, whether it was coming from the left
32:05
or the right, he just took it.
32:07
He ate it and he absorbed it and it gave him power, but he's not that way anymore because
32:12
he's not an ascension anymore because regardless of what you think after January six and after
32:16
him getting beat in the 2020 election, his star dimmed.
32:20
It certainly did.
32:22
And at this point, you have to think, what would he have to do to make his star brighter?
32:27
Because there's, you know, a quarter of the electorate that just loves Donald Trump and
32:31
they'll do whatever he says to do, but that's not enough to get him elected president, not
32:35
by a long shot.
32:37
And even the MAGA crowd couldn't even get his, his picks for the US Senate and the house
32:42
over the top.
32:43
Because a lot of people like, Oh, you know, most of the candidates that he, you know,
32:46
he endorsed they won, but not in the races that were going to be hotly contested because,
32:52
you know, he endorsed Mark Wayne Mullen in Oklahoma.
32:54
Mark Wayne Mullen won by 26 points that that was never going to be in doubt.
32:58
But all these really close races, maybe except for the JD Vance race in Ohio, his people
33:02
lost.
33:03
Okay.
33:04
And, you know, it seems like at some point this week, he's probably going to announce
33:08
that he's running for president again in 2024, which all but dooms, Herschel Walker and what
33:13
he's going to try to do there in Georgia.
33:15
Now, again, it looks like Democrats are going to have 51.
33:17
So Republicans are going to basically be scrapping together to try to get to 49, but that's going
33:21
to all but damn him.
33:23
And again, I feel the need to reiterate this and I've been saying it for a while now, but
33:26
I went, you know, fully in that, in that area last week, it's time to go all in on Ronda
33:30
Santas over Trump.
33:32
It's just time, like I'm going to do that.
33:34
And it looks like a lot of people, a lot of Republicans are ready to come along with
33:37
me.
33:38
And I know this is going to make a lot of you angry.
33:39
It kind of is what it is at this point.
33:41
But you go did a poll after the midterms and it said that more Republicans and Republican
33:45
leading independents now say they preferred to Santas 42% as their 2024 presidential nominee
33:51
over Trump, then said they preferred Trump to the Santas 35%.
33:55
So in October, right?
33:57
So a month ago, a poll that Yahoo News did, Trump was preferred 45 to 35.
34:03
So it basically flipped.
34:05
Now we're two years ahead of, or we're basically a little over a year ahead of, you know, the
34:10
Republican primaries and things like that when things are really, really going to get heated
34:13
up and all that.
34:14
But as it sits right now, it looks like the electorate, the Republican electorate is moving
34:18
away from Donald Trump and towards Ron DeSantis.
34:20
Now, I don't think Donald Trump is even capable of endorsing somebody over him.
34:25
That beats him.
34:26
So if Ron DeSantis wins the Republican nomination, he's not going to throw his MAGA support,
34:30
his Keep America Great or Save America or whatever thing, he's not going to throw that
34:33
sport behind Ron DeSantis, which will make it an uphill battle for Ron DeSantis in a
34:37
lot of swing states.
34:38
So we'll see how that goes.
34:39
But my big takeaway on him attacking DeSantis and Yunken is that Donald Trump looks weaker
34:44
than he ever has with this move.
34:47
I mean, it was some as soon as he did it and the timing that he did it in with these two
34:53
Republican governors that by all intents and purposes are doing fantastic jobs, it just
34:57
made him look super weak.
34:58
So even if you're a MAGA, MAGA Trump guy all the time and make America great again, you
35:01
sleep in it, you know, you wear the hat all the time, you got to look at this and be like,
35:05
would a strong person do that, would a strong person lash out against his perceived opponents
35:12
that aren't even technically opponents yet?
35:14
Like how is this going to be bringing the Republican Party together or it could actually
35:18
overtake the Democrats in 2024 to potentially retain the house, take over the Senate and
35:23
the White House?
35:25
A weak Trump doesn't help with any of that.
35:28
A whiny little bratty Trump doesn't help with any of that.
35:32
All right, guys, next quick hitter here, a federal judge ruling that Joe Biden's student
35:35
loan debt cancellation, big air quotes there is unconstitutional.
35:39
Okay.
35:40
So this is according to the LA Times, the Biden administration has stopped accepting applications
35:44
for the student debt relief to announce in August, casting doubt on a program that was
35:48
intended to help 40 million borrowers.
35:51
The education department's move came in response to a ruling Thursday from US district judge
35:55
Mark T. Pittman in Texas who held that the department didn't have the legal authority
35:59
to offer loan forgiveness on that scale.
36:01
The White House said it would appeal to ruling, but Pittman's ruling only intensified the
36:04
program's legal troubles.
36:06
The 8th Circuit Court of Appeals had already barred the education department from writing
36:09
off any debt while it considered a lawsuit brought by six Republican controlled states.
36:13
But I'm going to actually read this from Judge Pittman's orders because this is really important
36:16
here.
36:17
It's from the main part of the order.
36:19
The Constitution invests all legislative powers in Congress.
36:23
This power, however, can be delegated to the executive branch.
36:26
But if the executive branch seeks to use that delegated power to create a law of vast
36:30
economic and political significance, it must have clear congressional authorization.
36:34
If not, the executive branch, unconstitutionally exercises legislative powers vested in Congress.
36:40
In this case, the Heroes Act, a law to provide loan assistance to military personnel defending
36:45
our nation, does not provide the executive branch clear congressional authorization to
36:49
create a 400 billion student loan forgiveness program.
36:52
The program is thus an unconstitutional exercise of Congress's legislative power and must
36:57
be vacated.
36:58
So, I'm going to go right to my big takeaway on this one.
37:02
The decision here by this district judge is big, but the timing is bigger because this
37:10
decision was announced two days after the midterms.
37:16
So a lot of people on the right are looking at this judge, Mark T. Pittman from Texas,
37:19
they're like, yeah, you know, here are the hero of the Republic and this is great and
37:23
all that.
37:24
And again, I completely agree with his decision.
37:26
His decision is obviously in line and in accordance with the United States Constitution.
37:30
But why was it announced two days after the midterms?
37:34
After droves and droves and droves of millennials and Gen Zers with all the student loan debt
37:40
that they got for getting useless degrees had already voted for Democratic candidates.
37:46
Because in some of these ads, again, when they weren't talking about how much you should
37:49
support them so they can continue to kill children was like, you need to vote for us
37:52
so that you can get your student loans forgiven.
37:56
Into a 21 year old idiot, first time voter, they're like, yeah, yeah, that dude, I'll
38:01
do that.
38:02
Who do I need to vote for?
38:03
Oh, this brain dead guy in Pennsylvania.
38:04
Yeah, sure.
38:05
I'll vote for him.
38:06
We got to keep the Senate so I can get my student loans paid off so I can go on more
38:09
vacations and eat sushi more often, right?
38:12
So there's something that's happening behind the scenes here.
38:15
Again, I don't have the evidence to point my finger to it exactly.
38:19
This was not a decision that was labored on until after the midterms.
38:22
This could have been announced before the midterms and could have had a significant impact
38:26
especially on all these close races, but something to watch as we move forward.
38:30
There's something nefarious going on with this particular thing.
38:32
The timing is not coincidental.
38:34
This was done on purpose.
38:35
All right.
38:36
Next quick hitter here, Matt Walsh refusing to use God or the Bible and arguments.
38:40
Okay.
38:41
So he was on the Joe Rogan experience a couple of weeks back and he was brought in to talk
38:44
about what is a woman and as soon as I saw that he was on the show, I was so excited
38:48
to watch because it was like, okay, he got a full three hours with Joe Rogan.
38:51
You know, Joe Rogan has mentioned what is a woman, the documentary.
38:53
Guys, if you haven't watched that documentary yet, it's absolutely fantastic.
38:56
You have to go get a subscription to daily wire so that you can watch it.
39:00
And Joe Rogan has mentioned it so many times on his show and, you know, he finally had
39:04
Matt Walsh on to talk about it.
39:05
And so he brought him on the show in the first maybe one and a half to two hours somewhere
39:10
in there was talking about the documentary and it was really, really important to hear
39:14
them basically talking about this back and forth.
39:17
The one thing that I found that was interesting is they were talking about a very, very specific
39:20
person that is trans identified or they identify as trans that was on Joe Rogan's podcast.
39:24
So this is a man that thinks he's a woman and Joe Rogan kept referring to the person
39:28
as she and Matt Walsh was referring to the person as he rightly and Matt Walsh literally
39:33
never called Joe out for using the wrong pronouns because Joe Rogan loves to say, oh, this is
39:37
ridiculous and we shouldn't trans the kids and, you know, I can't believe it's such a pervasive
39:40
issue, but then he will use the chosen pronouns of these people that don't align with their
39:44
biological sex.
39:45
And Matt Walsh didn't nail him on that.
39:46
Hey, I wasn't part of the conversation.
39:47
So it is what it is.
39:49
But then after that, after they talked about the documentary thoroughly, they shifted gears
39:53
to talking about marriage and specifically gay marriage.
39:56
And they talked for close to an hour about marriage and specifically gay marriage.
40:01
Okay.
40:02
And this conversation just kept going on and on and on.
40:06
And I kept waiting because Matt Walsh, you know, he's a calm guy.
40:08
He doesn't ever get, you know, fiery and screaming and all those different things.
40:11
But Joe Rogan kept cutting Matt Walsh off as he's talking specifically about marriage and
40:15
how marriage is a specific thing and it's, you know, if you don't have marriage defined
40:19
clearly, it's a detriment to society.
40:21
Joe Rogan kept interrupting him and saying, you know, why is that, you know, why does
40:25
a gay marriage affect your marriage and all these different things?
40:28
And I kept waiting for Matt Walsh to bring up God and the biblical definition of marriage
40:33
because it's like of all the times in the world to bring that up.
40:36
This is the conversation you do that in.
40:38
Like perhaps Matt Walsh, again, you have to be, you have to give a little bit of grace
40:41
to these guys because I've had people get mad at me for things that I've said and not
40:44
said when I've gone on other people's shows.
40:46
I remember specifically when I went on Mike Ritalin's podcast about a year and a half ago.
40:50
And the thing is, is you're not part of that conversation.
40:52
You don't understand the flow.
40:53
You don't know what either person is thinking.
40:55
All you're getting is the final product.
40:56
So you have to have a little bit of grace, but he never brings up God.
41:00
Never brings up scripture.
41:02
The first person in that dyadic conversation that brought up God was Joe Rogan.
41:07
He's like, what is it?
41:08
You know, do you believe that because you believe in God?
41:10
You believe in the Bible and this ancient text that says we shouldn't do that.
41:13
Was Joe Rogan that brought it up?
41:15
And so you would think that if Joe Rogan brings this up, that that would be your time to now
41:20
go to the God based arguments, to the biblically based arguments as to why gay marriage should
41:26
not be a thing.
41:28
And Matt Walsh didn't do it.
41:30
And you know, I would love to put all the things in here, but I'll just put in the show notes.
41:33
I'll give a in the show notes where you can go watch the entire interview.
41:36
So you should definitely watch or listen to it.
41:38
And then there's also some breakdowns.
41:39
There's like some 15 minute clips of some of these interactions.
41:41
I was going to put it here in the show, but you know, we're going to be talking about
41:44
some other things, but the backlash to this interview, obviously a lot of the backlash
41:49
came from the left, you know, talking about how Joe is super transphobic and Matt Walsh
41:53
is transphobic and how they're basically literally killing people because they're anti trans
41:56
sentiments and all those different things.
41:58
But then there was also backlash to this part of the interview from a lot of people that
42:01
were on the right, specifically the Christian conservative, right?
42:04
That Walsh, why didn't he bring up the Bible?
42:06
Why didn't he go to talking about God?
42:09
And then Matt Walsh, a couple of days after the interview came out, cause I think it came
42:12
out on a Monday and then on his Wednesday show, he responded to the backlash, okay?
42:16
He responded to the backlash for all these people saying that he shouldn't that he didn't
42:19
use the Bible and he should have, you know, should have talked about God, whatever, whatever.
42:22
And what Matt Walsh said is that he didn't feel like it was going to be worth his time
42:28
to bring up any God or Bible based arguments because it would have taken the conversation
42:32
into a left turn because you go from arguing about, you know, the societal benefits of
42:37
one man, one woman being married.
42:39
And now you're trying to debate whether or not God exists and it kind of gets you off
42:43
kilter to where you can't really talk about anything specifically.
42:46
And he basically told all the people that thought he was, you know, doing the wrong
42:49
thing that they were wrong.
42:50
And he's going to do things his own way and blah, blah, blah, very Matt Walsh in his style.
42:54
Now if you go back to episode three, nineteen of this podcast, I did a full review of what
42:59
is a woman?
43:00
What is a woman?
43:01
Again, fantastic documentary.
43:02
I think it's important.
43:03
You should watch it.
43:04
You should watch it with your, with your age appropriate kids.
43:06
I watch it with my wife recently just so she could be kind of brought up on all this because
43:09
she doesn't stay up on it as much as I do.
43:12
And I remember giving him a pass because at no point during what is a woman did Matt Walsh
43:17
refer to God or any scriptural based arguments as to why transgenderism is ridiculous and
43:23
why, you know, gender non binary and non conforming and all these things, why these things are
43:27
ridiculous.
43:28
Okay.
43:29
And I gave him a pass because I understood the arguments, but I can see arguing against
43:34
transgenderism without using the Bible.
43:37
I can see it.
43:38
I personally would use the Bible myself, but I can see arguing without it.
43:43
Okay.
43:44
But with the marriage issue, we don't get what it even is without the Bible.
43:51
We don't, we don't get this concept of marriage without the Bible.
43:56
Again, Genesis one, 27 with the creation of man and two sexes, God created man in his
44:01
own image in the image of God, he created him male and female, he created them and God
44:04
blessed them.
44:05
Okay.
44:06
And then in Genesis two, 24, that explains it further.
44:08
For this reason, a man shall leave his father and his mother and be joined to his wife and
44:13
they shall become one flesh.
44:15
That is the first time in human history where we have this purported description of a male
44:20
and a female coming together in marriage and why that's beneficial.
44:25
Okay.
44:26
So, I, I can't see not arguing and defending what they would call traditional marriage,
44:33
but what most people should just call marriage without using the Bible.
44:37
So my big takeaway on this, and again, I'm a fan of Matt Walsh.
44:41
I love the things that he's done.
44:42
I love how forceful he is on issues, specifically the pro life issue, specifically on the transgender
44:46
issue, even more specifically to changing the, of the kids, the kid issue.
44:50
So I'm all for Matt Walsh and I love the support of the stuff that he puts out there, but for
44:54
my big takeaway, for a guy that purports to care about capital T truth so much, he seems
45:01
very, very hesitant to point people to the source of capital T truth.
45:07
And that should be concerning to us.
45:09
So obviously he's very outspoken about the fact that he is a Catholic and this audience
45:13
is mainly, you know, Protestant.
45:15
And so there are some definite things there that, you know, in terms of evangelism and
45:19
things that are happening within Catholicism versus Protestantism that are worth discussing
45:23
perhaps at another time, but we don't really know how deep his faith is.
45:27
Could he just be a cradle Catholic?
45:29
A guy that's, you know, Catholic, he goes to mass, but it's not really a big part of
45:32
his life, you know, you know, it doesn't really consider Jesus and the truth of the gospel
45:36
in his daily things that he does perhaps or perhaps he is a super devout Catholic and
45:41
he believes that, you know, the blood of Christ is, is what can save him and all those different
45:44
things, even though that is anathema inside the Catholic church and those different things.
45:48
Perhaps that's where he lays.
45:50
But if he continues to go down this route and every time there's a big issue that can
45:55
be talked about using a biblical and godly lens and he refuses to do that, you just need
46:00
to make sure you categorize Matt Walsh properly.
46:03
So if you're a Christian, you love Matt Walsh, perhaps you shouldn't just default to his arguments
46:08
all the time because he's not using the Bible as he's constructing those arguments.
46:12
You know, one thing I've learned from Pastor Joe B. Martin is when you're looking at society
46:15
and looking at things, there are things that you should accept.
46:18
There's things that you should reject and there's things that you should redeem, okay?
46:21
So I literally like came up with our motion.
46:23
So I could like remember things that you should accept, things that you should reject and
46:27
things that you should redeem, okay?
46:29
So some of his arguments that are biblically biblically based, you just accept those, okay?
46:33
If he's making things that are arguments that are contrary to the Bible, you just reject
46:37
those outright.
46:38
But in terms of what we're seeing here, especially with his fight against transgenderism or whatever,
46:43
even if he doesn't use scripture, I think that's something that you can redeem.
46:46
You can use his arguments, you can use the stuff that he has created and you can redeem
46:51
it and go ahead and add the Bible to it.
46:54
So I think it's great to send clips of this back and forth between him and Joe Rogan because
46:58
it's very cordial, even though they vehemently disagreed with one another, they even pointed
47:02
that out at the end of the episode.
47:04
Send that clip to a non-Christian that believes gay marriage is okay and we don't see the
47:08
big deal.
47:09
I don't know why, you know, straight people make such a big deal about this.
47:12
But then when you have that discussion with that person, you make sure you stand on the
47:15
truth of the gospel and the truth of the whole Judeo-Christian ethic that we get specifically
47:20
from the Bible.
47:21
So except reject, redeem, there are some things that he does that I think are absolutely
47:25
redeemable.
47:26
All right.
47:27
Next quick hitter, guys, quick hitter.
47:29
Here we go.
47:30
I always mess up on the fourth one.
47:31
Dev.
47:32
Y'all notice that?
47:33
I can't say quick hitter when I get to the fourth quick hitter.
47:35
I got to fix that.
47:36
But let's go to the fourth quick hitter nailed it.
47:38
The United States quietly putting troops in Ukraine.
47:41
So this is according to CNS news during a press briefing at the Pentagon, a senior defense
47:45
official.
47:46
This was a couple of weeks ago, confirmed to reporters that US troops are currently on
47:49
the ground in Ukraine, apparently to oversee the shipment of US weapons to the front lines.
47:53
On October the 31st, a senior defense official and a senior military official held a background
47:58
briefing on Ukraine at the Pentagon, according to a Department of Defense DoD press release.
48:03
The name of these two officials who provided the briefings were redacted during the briefing.
48:07
The senior defense official spoke on the methods being used by the US to prevent, quote, "the
48:12
diversion of US provided weapons to Ukraine," unquote.
48:16
According to the official, the DoD, quote, "has not seen credible evidence of the diversion
48:20
of US provided weapons, but has instead seen Ukraine's frontline units effectively employing
48:25
security assistance every day on the battlefield," unquote.
48:28
In order to effectively monitor the transfer of US DoD weapons to Ukraine, the defense
48:32
official announced that US personnel have recently resumed onsite inspections to assess
48:37
weapon stocks in the country whenever and wherever the security conditions allow.
48:42
So right to the big takeaway on this one, there is no way that these will be the only
48:48
US troops on the ground during this conflict.
48:51
There's no way.
48:53
So typically in most of the conflicts we see in modern American military, there's a few
48:59
troops and then there's more troops and then eventually there's a lot of troops, okay?
49:04
So this is different than the global war on terror.
49:06
This is different than what happened in Iraq and Afghanistan.
49:08
This is different than some of the things going on in Africa and in different things
49:11
like that.
49:12
But we're going to see more troops in Ukraine, okay?
49:16
Also, we've seen a lot about the corruption of Ukraine before, you know, the Russians invaded.
49:21
It was seen as one of the most corrupt countries, right?
49:23
Again, this is a center point of Joe Biden's son, 100 Biden's laptop, right?
49:28
And things that were going on in Ukraine and how much money was going to the big guy and
49:31
who the big guy was who's obviously Joe Biden in those different things, deeply, deeply
49:35
corrupt country.
49:36
Then over the weekend, and I do not know nearly enough about this story to talk about it.
49:39
So I'm literally just mentioning it.
49:41
The guy who created FTX was a cryptocurrency, one of the biggest cryptocurrencies in the
49:45
world.
49:46
This was a guy that when billions of dollars were sent over to the Ukraine so that they
49:50
could fight this war, Ukraine used a lot of that money to put into FTX, to put into crypto.
49:56
The guy running that cryptocurrency, I can't remember the guy's name.
49:59
He donated like 40 million dollars to Democrats during the midterms, he was second only to
50:04
George Soros.
50:06
And so we get, you know, the Democrats basically keeps control of the US Senate.
50:11
They may end up keeping control of the house, even though they probably don't, and they
50:13
get all this money from the cryptocurrency that's, you know, being potentially laundered
50:18
through Ukraine.
50:19
And then a week after the midterms, you know, a few days after the midterms, all of a sudden
50:22
the entire cryptocurrency, the FTX currency just explodes.
50:25
And again, there's a whole lot more there that I'm not just going to get into right
50:28
now.
50:29
But man, there's some chicanery over there.
50:31
But the last thing in terms of the big takeaways is we have to really think about as the United
50:35
States and as the US populace, what if the United States soldier is killed by the Russian
50:39
military?
50:40
Because the whole reason they're there is to make sure that this deeply, deeply corrupt
50:45
government of Ukraine is not reselling the weapons that we're sending over there to them
50:49
and the money that we're sending over there to them to buy these weapons are not being
50:52
diverted to the black market where they can profit from the sale of these weapons that
50:56
they couldn't have gotten other than if we gave them money to get them or sending them
51:00
over there outright.
51:01
Okay.
51:02
So that's, that's where we sit right now.
51:04
And we're being told that our US soldiers are over there.
51:07
They're just advising.
51:08
They're just checking.
51:09
They're trying to make sure that, you know, this column matches that column and they want
51:12
to see the actual weapons and want to make sure they're being sent there to the front
51:14
lines and all that.
51:15
But with the shelling going on with some of the things that the Russians are doing, if
51:18
the United States soldier gets killed, what do we do?
51:22
Like what is the plan exactly?
51:25
Because I think it's going to be a major issue.
51:27
If a United States soldier dies in Ukraine and we don't do something, but the us doing
51:33
us something part could lead directly to a war that ensures the destruction of the entire
51:39
planet.
51:41
Nuclear war would potentially be imminent at that point.
51:44
If we put our soldiers and our planes and our drones and our tanks and our whatever on
51:49
Ukrainian soil to kill as many Russians as possible.
51:52
And then you have to also look, that doesn't just mean that we're going to have troops
51:56
in Ukraine.
51:57
If we're pushing them back to Russia, why would we not also just cross the border into
52:02
Russia at that point?
52:04
Again, a million things would happen before that would happen.
52:07
Certainly Vladimir Putin would not just let American planes and tanks and boots just walk
52:11
across the border, but that's what we're looking at and no one's talking about it.
52:18
No one is talking about the fact that nuclear war could potentially be right around the
52:21
corner that if there's not something that happens because a lot of people are talking
52:25
about, hey, winter is coming and, you know, that's going to mean that the fighting is
52:28
going to die down because people are going to be way too cold and that's going to probably
52:31
bring, you know, Zelensky and Putin to the to the negotiation table and they're going
52:35
to try to negotiate, you know, peace agreement, all those different things.
52:38
But if you're Zelensky, you can't do that anymore because the Ukrainian people, like,
52:42
I don't know how many thousands of Ukrainians have died defending their country.
52:46
They're all in on defending their country.
52:49
Just imagine if the United States were invaded by some foreign power.
52:53
Don't you think that you and your boys and all that that you would do everything that
52:57
you could to push back against that?
53:00
Would you potentially sacrifice your life to do that even though you never took an old
53:03
to defend this country from enemies, foreign and domestic?
53:06
Don't you think you would do that?
53:07
Of course you would.
53:09
You know, even if someone just, you know, came into the state of Oklahoma, my goodness,
53:12
they're going to have some trouble with me and my friends.
53:14
Like man, they're going to have some massive, massive problems.
53:17
And so Zelensky is just all of a sudden going to go to the negotiation table and say, yeah,
53:20
we'll give you, you know, we'll give you this part of the Donbas region and we'll give you
53:24
that and we'll ensure that, you know, Crimea stays with you.
53:26
And then also we're going to make sure that we don't join NATO and blah, blah, blah, you
53:29
know, as long as you get all your soldiers out, you think that's just going to happen?
53:32
Of course it's not going to happen.
53:34
So of all the stories that are going around, again, we're super focused on the things happening
53:37
currently in this country and for good reason.
53:39
That's one that we got to keep an eye on because we got troops there now.
53:41
There's only going to be more.
53:42
All right, guys.
53:43
Last quick hitter here.
53:44
And this is a brighter note because I know some of these others have been a little bit
53:46
somber, but a UFC fighter boldly preaches the gospel in a Muslim country.
53:51
So that fighter is a fighter named Benil Dar Yush.
53:53
He has a lightweight contender for the UFC and so he's 155 pound fighter.
53:57
He's on a seven fight win streak and he was on a seven fight win streak going into his
54:01
fight on October the 22nd against Matus Gamroot in Abu Dhabi.
54:07
Okay.
54:08
So this is in the United Arab Emirates, obviously a massively majority Muslim country and it
54:12
was a great fight.
54:13
So it looked early in the first round like he might not do very well.
54:16
And then he just took over and absolutely did work in the second and third rounds.
54:20
He came out with a unanimous decision for his eighth win in a row.
54:23
You know, congratulations to be, Benil Dar Yush, just a masterful performance even when he
54:28
looked like he was going to face a much, much tougher opponent, but then in his post fight
54:34
interview in the octagon with Daniel Cormier in front of an almost 100% Muslim audience.
54:40
He says this, ladies and gentlemen, after three rounds, we go to the judges score cars
54:46
for decision.
54:48
The judges score the contest, 30, 27, 30, 27, and 29, 28 for the winner by you done, Mr.
55:03
Sejanda Bunil.
55:05
Ladies and gentlemen, I'm here with Benil Dar Yush, Benil, once again, man, you only step
55:13
up the fight.
55:14
It does not matter who, how good does it feel to get a victory over young up and coming
55:18
up and fighting like Mateo's Gamron?
55:22
I'm sorry, Daniel, but I gotta take a minute.
55:24
I need to dedicate this fight.
55:27
My people in Iran, I know you're struggling.
55:30
I know you're fighting for freedom.
55:32
I know it's a tough struggle.
55:33
I want you guys to know we're praying for you, and we love you.
55:37
Let me tell you one more thing.
55:38
This might be the most important thing you'll ever hear.
55:41
There is true freedom, a freedom that no one can take from you in the name of Jesus Christ,
55:46
the Son of God.
55:47
And never forget that.
55:48
If you remember one thing I say, remember that.
55:54
I mean, just a blistering gospel presentation there, and you can see when he was talking
55:59
about the stuff that was going on in Iran, because we've seen, you know, some, some
56:01
honor killings and we've seen some, some things happening and the, the populace of Iran pushing
56:05
background talked about that on the show.
56:07
But that is happening.
56:08
I know most of you are aware of that at this point.
56:10
He talks about that in the crowds cheering for him, right?
56:13
Because, you know, the people in the United Arab Emirates, they are not big fans of what's
56:17
going on in Iran and the people there.
56:20
But then as soon as he mentions the gospel of Jesus Christ, that's why I left it going
56:23
there for a little bit.
56:24
You can hear the booze.
56:25
He's getting booed.
56:27
This is a guy who just won a big fight.
56:30
He could be pointing to himself and pounding his chest and, and for good reason, and instead
56:34
he uses it as an opportunity instead of calling for a title fight to call for people to come
56:39
to the gospel message of Christ.
56:42
That's an absolutely incredible thing.
56:44
I mean, after 15 minutes of fighting, he's exhausted and all that.
56:47
He still has the wherewithal to preach the gospel, but he didn't stop there.
56:50
Let's go to the end of his interview here.
56:53
You have not won eight fights in a row.
56:55
How much more do you have to do to try to change down the championship opportunity as
56:59
the belt is on the line tonight?
57:01
That's a great question.
57:02
But here's the thing is I don't have the answer for this, but I will tell you one thing.
57:07
I'm not a beggar.
57:08
I've done everything I needed to do.
57:10
You said fight in here, whoever you put in front of me, I found whoever.
57:14
Here's what I will tell you.
57:15
My crown will come from my Lord and Savior.
57:17
I don't care if I have to win another 10 fights before I get this belt.
57:21
I'll do it.
57:22
Well, congratulations on another massive victory.
57:24
Ladies and gentlemen, give it up for Penile Daruse.
57:28
My crown will come from my Lord and Savior again in in rough, you know, arguably the most
57:35
difficult division in all of mixed martial arts.
57:38
Any organization is the lightweight division, the 155 pound division in the unit in the UFC.
57:42
Okay.
57:43
That is that is by far one of the hardest divisions in the world to win a fight.
57:47
And the dude is one eight in a row and he's setting himself up to potentially be next
57:53
in line for a title fight, even though it was announced that Islam Akashev, the new champion
57:56
is going to be fighting Alexander Volkinovski next year in Perth, Australia.
57:59
So so that's basically not going to happen, but he's he's in line for an enormous fight.
58:04
He's talking about his crown, not his potential belt, but his crown and who's going to give
58:09
it to him.
58:10
So hearing him do that and doing that in hostile territory, again, this is not a territory where
58:16
you can very easily just preach the gospel, like they don't have free speech rights over
58:19
there.
58:20
I mean, Abu Dhabi is a, you know, great city and the people that have been there, they're
58:22
like, it's so clean and it's wonderful and all these different things, but you don't
58:24
have free speech over there.
58:25
I mean, you go off half cock talking about Jesus all the time, it's probably going to
58:29
be a problem for you, but he understands how amazing it is for him to have the first
58:34
amendment and to be United States citizen to where he can say those things freely without
58:37
being afraid that, you know, he's going to get thrown off of a building or have his head
58:41
chopped off.
58:42
And so for us, for those of us that live in the United States, which is the majority of
58:45
this audience, think about that.
58:47
Like, what would you do in that situation?
58:50
Would you cower and, you know, talk about, you know, ones and twos and takedowns and
58:54
submission attempts?
58:55
Or would you take that as an opportunity to preach the gospel?
58:58
Because most of us in our lives, we're not going to be up on stage.
59:01
We're in a tuxedo receiving some golden trinket where we can start off by saying, I just want
59:05
to thank God.
59:06
I just want to whatever.
59:07
And he didn't just say, I just want to thank my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and then go
59:09
on to talk about the game or go on to talk about the fight or go on to talk about, you
59:12
know, the last hit or the walk off or the whatever.
59:14
He specifically talked about where he's going to get his crown from, who's going to give
59:18
it to him and to say that you can have hope like he does if you accept the gospel.
59:23
Just an absolutely, absolutely incredible thing.
59:25
Even if you're not big on fighting, you should be a Benel Darr use fan.
59:28
He's probably going to get a fight coming up, you know, potentially he's going to get a
59:30
fight against Dustin Poirier who just won a big fight over the weekend against Michael
59:34
Chandler.
59:35
That could potentially be on the same card as the title fight between Volkinovsky and
59:38
his Lamok chef.
59:39
So we'll have to see.
59:40
But you should definitely be following him and be supporting him.
59:42
