Let's be honest, most men drift. We wake up, we scroll, we work, and then we just rinse and repeat. And we know we're softer than we should be. That's why I built the 31-day resilience reset. This is not a devotional, it is a field manual for men ready to stop drifting and start fighting back. So, for 31 days, you'll train your spirit, mind, and body with scripture, prayer, and daily challenges that forge real resilience. Go to www.undaunted.life/31days to download this resource for free. That's undaunted.life/31days. Start your reset today. This is Undaunted Life, a man's podcast. I'm your host, Kyle Thompson. Let's get into it. All right, guys, we got a special reaction video for you today. So, I don't do these very often, but we started doing them last year, obviously, after Charlie Kirk was assassinated. So, we'll do unnumbered episodes every now and then and drop a bonus episode, and this is why. Because I'd been saving quick hitters for a very, very, very long time. And then last week, I'm like, okay. As you can tell, which I'll go into a full detail in on Thursday's episode, so look forward to Thursday's episode. I'm currently in a sling. I'm about to go into surgery. So, if you're listening to this on time, I'm going to be in surgery tomorrow, right? So, prayers would be appreciated. I get into the whole story on Thursday's episode, so I won't do it again here. But, like, okay, I'm going to be having surgery next week and all that. So, I've got all these quick hitters. I've been thinking about things for like a couple of months. And so, I'll just do an episode, I'll record it, and you know, drop it in a week. So, I recorded this Thursday's episode last Thursday, okay? I'm like, I'm covering a whole bunch of things. I did a whole big long section about the Bishop of Rome. You'll you'll get to see that. And nothing's going to happen over the weekend. I'm all good. Well, wouldn't you know it, crap happened over the weekend, okay? And so, I do these reaction episodes so that get the content out there to you. Because with me being post-surgery it was going to be forever before I could talk about it. But I'm in Kansas City this weekend. I was going to be speaking at Fellowship Church there just outside of Kansas City doing a men's event out there. Pastor Chris Williams and his team were just absolutely spectacular and fantastic. But it's Saturday night. It's the day before I I speak at all three services in the morning and then a men's event that night. And we're just sitting around and Kelsey and I aren't really big on just like scrolling the television, right? And you know, I like watching sports, but I'm just I'm not invested. I'm not invested in any team uh you know, that's playing in the NHL or NBA right now. I'm just kind of like, you know, it's something to watch. It's something competitive to watch. We're watching ABC, NBC, one of those. And then we get a special news break in. And immediately I thought, "Oh my god, someone killed Trump." Because you got to think like why are they breaking in? They're not going to break in because of, you know, a storm that happened in the Midwest or be because, you know, somebody tripped and fell walking into some event. Like it's going to be something huge. And then it was that there was an active shooter situation at the White House Correspondents Dinner. And they were trying to get updates. They were showing some videos, but the videos were more confusing than they were helpful. You really couldn't like uh figure out what was going on. And then they're like, "All right, enjoy the rest of the game." And I'm like, "Hold up. Wait a minute. Time out." Right? So I go to uh Twitter X, which is where you can kind of get the stuff that's happening right now. And you're seeing these videos, and there were a lot of mixed reports. Okay, there were multiple shooters. Okay, there was one shooter. Okay, the shooter's dead. Okay, shooter's not dead. Shooter's in custody. Uh you know, multiple shots fired. One person hit. We don't have any updates. Trump and Vance were on the same day as and they had to kind of be, you know, snuck out at the same time. You know, people were confused and what what's going on? And people were calling into the different news sites and all that. So it was it was just a whole lot of things going on. And then we finally got to a point where the dust settled at least a little bit. So I'm recording this on Tuesday morning. This is Tuesday, April the 28th. So as of right now, as the White House Correspondents Dinner was beginning, I mean, this This an event with several thousand people. A man named Cole Thomas Allen, a 31-year-old Californian, sprinted past a Secret Service checkpoint with a 12-gauge shotgun, a handgun, and three knives in an attempt to assassinate Donald Trump and members of his administration. Several Secret Service agents pulled out their sidearms to engage Allen, but they all missed. Right? So, all those shots you hear on that video, where you hear shots in the background, those were all shots that did not hit the intended target. But, apparently, uh Allen did hit a Secret Service agent in his bulletproof vest. Apparently, he was okay. He was in the hospital overnight, but he was released on on Sunday, which was the following day. And so, apparently, after dodging [clears throat] all this gunfire, Allen surrendered to Secret Service and the local police. And so, he was arrested and taken into custody. So, he never made it inside of the room where the White House Correspondents Dinner was taking place. Um but then, yeah, President Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance, they were ushered off the stage by Secret Service. And the Secret Service was also later seen removing other members of the cabinet and other, you know, important dignitaries and whoever from the event space. And so, after the arrest was made, Trump, apparently, was engaged in an argument with Secret Service agents about wanting the evening to continue as planned. But, he did eventually relent because they were like, "Look, we can't confirm. Obviously, there was a massive security breach." We're going to talk more about that here in a second. So, they couldn't confirm that this guy was working alone, that there wasn't another credible threat. And so, they're just like, "Hey, we got to clear this building. We got to get you out of here. We got to get you back to the White House." So, about 30 or 45 minutes after this went down, Donald Trump, while still wearing his tuxedo, he addressed the press in the White House press briefing room. And it was kind of funny. It was a funny image. But, you know, my cops were away cuz everybody's in their formal wear. Tuxedos, fancy dresses, and all that. But, here they are. You know, some of them were literally like physically running to the White House so that they could be in the press room. And so, that all went down. And they basically gave you a what they knew at the time. This is what happened. This is what we know about the suspect, blah blah blah. And so, Cole Thomas Allen, he appeared in court yesterday. He appeared in court on Monday. He's had no prior arrests, no convictions. Obviously, a lot of people were like, we never saw something like this coming, but he has been charged with attempting to assassinate the president, discharging a firearm during a crime of violence, and transporting a firearm and ammunition in interstate commerce. And so, those are just the charges he's facing right now. He will likely face a whole lot more charges, and he's actually going to be appearing in court again this week on Thursday. So, leading up to the assassination attempt on Saturday, it was it's now known that Allen took a train from where he lived near the Los Angeles area to Chicago, and from there he made his way to Washington, D.C. And weeks prior to Saturday night, prior to the Correspondents Dinner, he booked a hotel room at the same facility as the White House Correspondents Dinner. So, he actually used an interior stairwell to bypass the heavily monitored area of the hotel where people were entering and exiting, and he exited onto the same level as the foyer leading into the dinner's red carpet, okay? And just before the attempted assassination, Allen apparently sent a manifesto to some people, some friends and family, some close people to him. He called Trump a pedophile, a rapist, and a traitor. He compared him to the Antichrist. Uh it looks like he wanted to He kind of had a list like with a hierarchy. At the very top, he wanted to kill Donald Trump, and then he had a hit list of other administration officials and cabinet officials. And he had everyone on his list, but he made sure to leave off Kash Patel, the director of the FBI. And this is somehow related to Kash Patel apparently being the only person that really knows what happened with the Epstein files, and he's going to be the one that releases it, and blah blah blah, and all that. And then he signed his letter, "Friendly Federal Assassin." So, it's also known that Allen is a Democrat, big-time Democrat supporter, donated to the Kamala Harris campaign. Authorities found, this should be a shock to no one, anti-Trump and anti-Christian rhetoric on the suspect's social media accounts, and obviously there will be a whole lot more to come. Hey guys, real quick. You've probably heard the phrase ignorance is bliss, right? Well, some of you are ignorant about where the beef that you buy at the grocery store comes from and what it took to get to you. So, that single package of grocery store ground beef can contain meat from over 100 different cows, sometimes from multiple countries. And if one of those cows was sick or mishandled in some way, it's mixed right into your dinner. So, most people don't realize that some ground beef at the store isn't just beef, either. It's scraps and trimmings chemically treated with ammonia to kill bacteria and then blended in to bulk up the weight of what you're buying. It's legal, it's cheap, and it's on the plates of Americans all over the country, usually without the customer ever knowing. So, even if you buy what you think is a nice roast or steak, it's been passed from feedlot to processor to packaging plant, handled by people who will never eat it, and raised by farmers who will never see the end product. And in that journey, the cattle were likely fattened on hormone-packed feed, pumped full of antibiotics just to survive cramped feedlot conditions, and processed alongside meat from hundreds of other animals. And by the time it hits your grill, you don't know whose cow was, what it was fed, or what's actually in it. I don't want you or your family eating low-quality jacked-up beef. That's why I want you to use the official beef delivery partner of Undaunted Life, Primal Beef. So, Primal Beef is a cattle operation owned and operated by Shawn Glass. He's a retired Navy SEAL that partnered with Jocko Willink to launch Primal Beef. So, what makes Primal Beef different from other beef delivery companies? It's a combo of the following. All-American Black Angus cattle, and the beef comes from one farm, and that's in Virginia's Shenandoah Valley. The beef is all-natural, no hormones ever, no mRNA ever. And after slaughter, the entire carcass is dry-aged, then hand-cut by artisan butchers, and then flash-frozen to ensure that it maintains tenderness, marbling, and flavor. And here's another cool thing. For every box sold, Primal Beef donates meat directly to a member of America's special operations forces through the C4 Foundation. So, you can take pride in knowing that your purchase will help put literal food on the table for America's finest warriors. If you're still on the fence, it's probably because you've been eating too much soy, drying your emo tears with your bangs, and you've forgotten what real food tastes like. Primal Beef can help with that. Try Primal Beef out today by going to primalbeef.com. That's primalbeef.com. Use the promo code Kyle to get 25 bucks off your first order.

So, the security set up, and again, I'm not a security professional, but there are certain things when it comes to even your personal security, the security of your home. You don't need to have gotten a higher level of uh training in this. You don't necessarily need to have gone through some sort of special operator program or any type type of thing like that. Some of this is just common sense, and then obviously there's things that takes a lot of uh experience in dealing with certain areas. But, there was only one perimeter that was set up by the Secret Service. Okay? Now, could there have been an exterior perimeter that was like, you know, a mile surrounding the area? We don't really know, but there was a single perimeter that was set up by Secret Service. Again, there's a logistical issue that happens where you have literally thousands of people coming in and out. Thousands of people coming in and out. But, the interesting thing that I learned is all you had to do in order to get into the facility is you had to have a picture of your ticket on your phone. Show it to someone at the checkpoint, and then you could go through the metal detectors. And speaking of the metal detectors, there was only one set of metal detectors. Okay? So, obviously just from a logistical standpoint, you're creating a bottleneck. And so, at this singular bottleneck, it's going to take forever for people to to get in. But then also, when you create a bottleneck, the people that are working at the bottleneck feel the pressure of trying to get people through as quickly as possible, right? So, stuff gets missed. And so, we see this, you know, even at airports that have multiple, you know, lanes of entry or something like that. The agents, the TSA agents at the airports catch almost no contraband. Like, they did studies where they there were weapons, drugs, all kinds of things that made it through TSA checkpoints. One because may maybe not the smartest people that you've ever met in your entire life. Two, a lot of them don't really care about their jobs at all. And three, it takes, you know, a little bit of focus. It takes a a a focus to find things, and the training has to be up to snuff. But, here they are, one perimeter, one set of metal detectors. Also, there was apparently, and and obviously, because of how this guy was able to get in, there was no screening of anyone who was in the hotel prior to the event beginning. Again, Allen was able to access the main floor, right? Past the normal security access points, he was able to access the main floor by just going down an in an internal stairwell. He'd even mentioned in some of this he may put this in his manifesto or other messages. He's just like, you would have thought there would have been a whole lot more security. He's like, I feel like I'm being pranked. Like, no one's asked me, no one's stopped me, no one's done anything. And people talk about, you know, racial profiling and all these different profilings. This guy was not profiled at all, right? It was as if he was a ghost just walking in and out of the hotel. Which obviously leads to a question. We're at war right now with Iran. There's a lot of people, including this Allen fellow, that believe that Donald Trump is the ringleader of this international cabal of, you know, rapist, pedophiles, who's also a Mossad agent somehow, and all these other different things. You got a lot of people that want Donald Trump dead. Some people just hate him because he wears a red tie, right? But, some people hate him because of stuff that they can't even substantiate because dorks on the internet have convinced them that certain things are true. So, what if this wasn't just some random guy in California with little to no training in what he was trying to pull off. What if this was a highly trained Iranian assassin? What if it was someone from the Mexican cartel, one of the drug cartels, right? What if this was any other kind of Islamic terrorist? Because again, this guy got three knives, one handgun, and a shotgun. With with no issues, right? And this wasn't like a collapsible stock shotgun. So, this was, you know, a normal-size shotgun. And so, no one checked a bag, no one screened who was already in the hotel, no no one did anything. No one asked a single question. He was just able to come in and come out. No big deal. What if he had had bombs? What if he had had IEDs? What if he had a freaking bazooka? I mean, there there's any number of things that this man could have pulled off because nobody was paying any attention. So, major major security snafu. Also, several Secret Service agents, you can see this in the video cuz there was the grainy footage that Trump posted immediately on Trump Social, but then we've gotten kind of the the main issue. But, if you see the video of the guy running down the hallway, and he is scooting man. There's probably close to 10 police and Secret Service that are at this checkpoint. Nobody's even looking down the hallway. The only place a threat could come from, except from the sky or under the ground, is that hallway. You have a bunch of police officers kind of holding up the wall. You got some other guys that are looking the opposite direction of the hallway where a threat could come from. And then all of a sudden, you see this guy just woo passing. Then it's kind of like, "Oh, oh, shoot." You got guys like going for their sidearms. Then they take out their pistols, they engage this guy, and they miss him. Now, here's the thing. For a lot of people, it's hard to hit the target when it's not even moving, and you have a resting heart rate. So, you see this guy run by, I'm sure your heart rate just crushed up into the hundreds, right? Immediately. And then you take out your sidearm, and you miss. Now, luckily, when this guy heard gunshots, apparently, he just decided that's it, right? I'm out of here. Like that's it. I'm not trying to die today. I thought I was willing to die, but I'm not. And so, he went down, and he was able to be subdued. But, that's obviously an issue as well. If you're a guy just plinking at the range, yeah, you don't need to, you know, make sure you're doing it with a high heart rate all the time and all that. It's probably good to train that. But, for Secret Service, how often are you going to be shooting a stationary target? So, the fact that several agents engaged, again, most of them had to do it in a panic mode cuz they weren't looking down the one freaking hallway where the threat could come from. Obviously, that's an issue. But, also, I counted the the amount of time because he he had that that Oz, whatever guy was doing some sort of trick for him and Melania on the dais. You hear the gunshots. And I counted. I started a timer. It took the Secret Service about 30 seconds after the initial shots were fired before they even started to get Trump off of the stage. 30 seconds. That's an eternity when it comes to protecting the President of the United States. Because what if the guy didn't stop running? What if the the Secret Service agents and the police officers kept missing as they were trying to shoot this guy? All of a sudden, he's going to be running into a room where there's a direct line of sight straight for the President of the United States. Now, luckily, he probably would not have been able to engage from that distance with a shotgun with any type of effectiveness. But, it took 30 seconds for them to realize, "Hey, no, they didn't just drop a tray. Like this these are these are gunshots right outside the room where the President is." So, that's incredibly concerning. But, then we saw this. You saw the Secret [clears throat] Service agents come off, and I saw this on video, and I saw this on pictures. Apparently, and absolutely, confusingly, Donald Trump still has female Secret Service agents that are his personal detail. That are assigned to his actual body. So, go back to the Butler, Pennsylvania, situation. Remember, I was absolutely aghast that I think there were two of the agents that were assigned to his person were these little women, right? So, first of all, if part of your job is to potentially take a bullet for your client or for the person that you work for, at the very least you should probably be roughly that person's size, right? Because if James, my 5-year-old son, was a Secret Service agent, he's supposed to protect me, that's an issue. Cuz I I can duck and cover and all that, but he his body can't really cover my body. So, there there's just the logistical issue. You have these small women, right, that are that are on his detail, but then also again, there is a distinct and natural difference between the ability of a law enforcement official or officer that is a male versus a female. And there's a lot of males that suck at their job as well, but even if you're the most elite of elite females, you don't have what it takes to do that job at the highest level. For the same reason, you can be the woman that wins the CrossFit Games, you'll never make it through SEAL training. You'll never make it through the Q course. You're not going to make it through Ranger School. It's because there's a fundamental difference. It doesn't have to do with how many peptides you take and how much creatine you take and how many deadlifts you can do, right? It it has to do with how you're wired and how you were structured. And so, why on God's green earth do we still have the President of the United States of America, the most important person alive today, certainly in this country if not the entire world, protected by women? Really? Uh, I just like no one's thought about this? Like I'm not saying women can't be Secret Service agents, they should probably be doing something else, but like administrative work, fine. But when it comes to carrying a gun and being the physical protection arm of somebody, uh, you're telling me that there's not other men that are more qualified than these women, right? Even at the very least just the idea that they're not even the right size to protect someone as big as Donald Trump. It's just absolutely insane. But now we need to get to the public reaction. So obviously and immediately Republicans and conservatives were appalled by all this. Just couldn't believe it. How is it still happening? You know, I think I even posted on Instagram. It'd be really awesome if they stopped trying to kill the president. Then you had most Democrats, most Democrats that people know their names, they pretended to be appalled, right? And we'll we'll talk more about that shortly. Uh Trump seemed rather unbothered by it, right? So by the time he was at the White House, he was just kind of talking about it like, "Hey, you know, I'm a consequential president, you know, this is just kind of the way it is. It kind of is what it is." Like the guy seems absolutely unflappable. Again, just remember when he was actually shot in Butler, Pennsylvania, his first thought was to stand up in defiance and yell, "Fight!" and like pump his fist and all that. This guy seems rather unflappable by that stuff. But as you can imagine because we live in literally the dumbest time in human history, the immediate conspiracy theories started to float around. And when I say immediate, I mean immediate. Part of the reason why we don't have a a big presence on X Twitter is because it's just an absolute cesspool for the most part, right? It's good to go get information, but if you were like participating in the nonsense that's happening on that app, I mean, God, I'll pray for you. But the immediate thing that everyone kept saying, "It's a false flag. It's a false flag. This, you know, this is to distract us from something else, right? This was planned from the beginning. The Trump administration planned this, all that." And you heard a lot of people say, "This is just like Butler, Pennsylvania." I am still flabbergasted by people. Like it's like, how are you smart enough to own a car and make it to work every day? To put your clothes on, to not poop yourself while you're in the office. Because I've literally had people that have higher education degrees that have nice jobs say that Butler, Pennsylvania was planned. That they convinced this guy to shoot at the president, but to not hit him in the head, but to only nick his ear from however far away he was. And that he was convinced of doing that, and then we took him out and killed him so that he couldn't tell anyone that he was, you know, just part of the plan, right? Obviously, these people have never shot a firearm. Because if you were sitting across a dinner table from me, and I was lining up to shoot you, but just in the tip of your ear, right? That would be hard enough to do. Right? But you're telling me somebody with iron sights from over 100 yards away, again, easy shot if you're hunting a deer, but if you were trying to shoot off the tip of one of the deer's antlers, I bet you you'd miss. But you're telling me they found some teenager somewhere, some young guy with iron sights, and they got him to the point where he was so proficient that he could only nick the president's ear at the exact moment that he turned his head like 5° to the right. But again, yeah, it's false flag. False flag, right? Clearly a false flag. Which leads to several questions. False flag for what reason? I keep seeing people say it's false flag. They're in my comment section. They're all over the internet. This is a false flag. It's false flag. To what end? For what purpose? To cover up what? To distract from what? You got nothing. You say nothing. But it's a false flag. Why? You know, you know. It's like, is that what we're doing here? And And here's the other thing. In order to do that false flag operation, you're telling me that they thought it would be best to get an insane leftist, convince him to do this, which would be against his own interest because he clearly hates Trump, he hates Christians, he hates this country. Because they they wanted to get him armed, convince him that even though he will likely be shot and likely killed because of this that it would still be somehow a good idea and that Trump wants this to happen even though Donald Trump, if he were involved, this would be against his interests as well. So, you have two sets of people. You have the Trump administration, you have this crazy leftist. You're convincing them to do something that has essentially no chance of of actually being successful and it's against their own interests, but that's that's what we're doing. You think that they did that? Like again, even if you think Trump wasn't involved, like this is the deep state, the they, right? The mysterious they out there. Right? This is the plan? Find an untrained leftist who's pretty fast and run him past the checkpoint? Like that's the plan? Again, this nameless, faceless they, they're so powerful according to you idiots, they're so powerful that they can control everyone and every government. They even control the weather. Right? But this was their best chance to try to take out members of the administration? Was this? This is the false flag? I mean, if you believe that, you are a special kind of stupid. Like you have your own category of stupid that you are the king of. If you actually believe that, and unfortunately, there are so many people that believe that. And here's the thing, the fact that the shooter didn't die actually goes even further to disprove that this was a false flag because if you want to get rid of the evidence of this evil plan made by this cabal of nameless, faceless they's, you have to get rid of the person that was the person you were planning to frame for the particular attack, right? I've heard from all the conspiracy theorists, that's why they take out the shooter, they take out the assassin so they can't talk, right? This guy wasn't even shot. He didn't even get a bruise. At worst, cuz you know, you saw him when he was arrested, he had his shirt off for whatever reason, he got a little carpet burn from the carpet there in the lobby. But But that's it. That's it. One [ __ ] in my comment section was like, "Oh yeah, he was just a Mossad agent." This guy's lived in America his entire life, has had all kinds of different jobs, he was a teacher of the month working some place, clearly a lunatic uh you know, leftist, right? No connection to Israel whatsoever. Mossad agent. It's so clear. It's clear as day. All right, I can't wait to see what Tucker and Candace have to say about all this. But now we do have to talk about the ideology that undergirds how something like this is even able to happen. And realistically, the political left and the political right here in this country, they're as divided as they could possibly be, right? And we're not just talking about legislatively, right? Because obviously, they're on two sides of of every issue, right? For the most part, Republicans, the political right, at least signal signals that babies in the womb are important and we shouldn't slaughter them. And all political left, it's like, "Well, no, we should be able to slaughter those babies at any point of the pregnancy for any reason whatsoever and be paid for by taxpayer dollars." Right? Like obviously, they're on on the opposite sides of taxation, on foreign policy, on war, on everything that they could be opposite of. But the political left and the political right do not use the same tactics to get their way. This is obviously very clear as well. And the mask really came off on both sides after Charlie Kirk was assassinated. Again, can conservatives and Republicans, they were going to prayer vigils. They were lifting their hands during praise and worship to the Lord. They I mean, they were they were concerned about what was going on in this country like it was deep down their bones. And what were leftists and progressives doing? Celebrating. Like they they were lamenting the fact that it was only Charlie that was taken out. That they wish it could have been other people that they hate. Other political commentators, other Republicans that were prominent. They They were openly celebrating the murder of an innocent commentator because of the words that he said. And so uh the Babylon Bee has a >> [clears throat] >> another account that's not satire, it's called Not the Bee. They posted something, I'm just going to read it here. They posted this on their Instagram or Facebook or whatever. And I think it's absolutely perfect. It kind of goes to the point I'm making here. One side of the political spectrum keeps trying to kill the other side. One side celebrates murdering babies, selling their body parts, and chopping off kids' genitals. One side continuously releases violent repeat criminals that are preying on our women and children while lying and saying that they support women. One side wants dudes to compete against our girls in sports and force our girls to change with them in the locker room. One side willingly invites criminals and miscreants from the third world to live among us with impunity, even going as far as to protect when sex offenders are shipped back home. One side gleefully riots and burns down cities when they don't get their way. This isn't hyperbole. The Democratic Party is the party of depravity. It's exactly right. And here's the thing about the left. And you could you could just say the left, progressives, the Democratic Party, it's all basically one in the same now. Democratic Party is doing nothing to moderate. They're They're just running even further to the left. But the left, I think they inherently know that they can't convince anyone of their position. They They can't bring anyone over to their side by using logic and reason and you know, argumentation undergirded by evidence. They know they can't do that. So their only choice is to take out the people that disagree with them. Either through legislation, imprisonment, or murder. They will put forward legislation that will authorize people that don't believe the way that they do. They will imprison their opponents, like what they've done to Trump, like what they've done to elderly female pro-lifers that are outside of abortion clinics praying. They will imprison them. Or they'll just kill them. Like they did Charlie. Like they've tried to do to Trump. What is this, the third or fourth legitimate attempt on Trump's life? And also mainstream Democratic politicians have signaled since Saturday, at least for a day or two, that we uh need to turn down the temperature. We just need to turn down the temperature on the rhetoric just a little bit. But then they platform and ultimately and and very likely just totally agree with people like Destiny, uh Hasan [ __ ] So, Destiny is like this this guy uh on the internet. He's a leftist that that does all these debates and all that. Hasan [ __ ] was just mainstreamed by the New York Times. These are people that have openly called for conservatives to be killed. Destiny specifically said, and you can find all these clips on the internet. I put this together I put this entire thing together with one hand while I was uh driving down the road. Otherwise, I would put the clips in here myself. But, Destiny was basically saying that conservatives should always fear for their life when they do a public event. Hasan [ __ ] said that the streets should should be soaking with the blood of capitalists, of conservatives, right? These are mainstream figures in the modern Democratic Party. These are mainstream leftists and progressives. They may not get an invitation to speak at the DNC, right? But, all these people ultimately agree with them. And here's the thing, and we know this. I'm certainly not the first person to say this. If you keep calling Donald Trump and the members of his administration Nazis and fascists, this type of thing will continue to happen. And ultimately the people that are rooting for the downfall of of Trump and people in the administration, they want this to happen. You've had plenty of people, whether they're on The View, whether they're on their own social media and all that, openly lamenting that Donald Trump is still alive. There was some Democratic There was a city where the some Democrat party or whatever said, "Oh, almost got him." They posted that on Saturday. Right? And this is where we get into a discussion about the conscious and nefarious actors and useful idiots again. Go back to my crisis of discernment episode. We have conscious and nefarious actors that are leftists progressives that hate this country, that that want power, but they ultimately want the country to fall. And then you have useful idiots like the attempted assassin on Saturday that have some sort of a mental illness, some level of gullibility, and they actually believe things. They They believe that Donald Trump is the Antichrist. They believe that he is responsible, that he was the ringleader, it's him and Jeffrey Epstein together picking out the little kids that would be raped by powerful people all over the globe. That is Donald Trump, that is somehow in charge of this country and running things into the ground, but also is a puppet of Netanyahu somehow. And again, this is where it just That's the horseshoe side of this whole thing. You have people that have gone so far to the left, and then you have people on the right that are actually horseshoeing over to the leftist positions cuz they hate Jews so much. They're so highly gullible. They They pay attention to people on the internet that don't substantiate any of their claims with evidence, and they just believe this stuff outright about Donald Trump. And I I I was having this discussion with a member of my family even recently. It's like, "Okay, I'm completely [clears throat] okay with exploring every option, right?" So, here's what seems like what happened, but we should be able to ask questions about Okay, well, what about this? What about that? You know, could this person have been involved? Could this group have been involved? All that. So, when you ask all those questions, when you lay all those different possibilities out there, there's two things you need to take into consideration. One is Occam's razor. Again, [clears throat] I talked about that on that episode. It's like the explanation that has the least amount of things dependent upon it in order to make it true is the most likely, right? But then also, once you lay everything out there, you have to kind of decide, okay, this is likely what what happened. You can't just ask all these questions and I'm I just I'm just asking questions. I'M JUST ASKING QUESTIONS. AND THEN JUST GO nowhere and just leave it. Eventually you have to stake your claim. You have to put your hat down somewhere and say this is what I think actually happened. And as with all of us, when we are presented with additional evidence, we can change our minds. I just talked about this with Tyler Robinson. Every bit of evidence that can and will be presented in court points to a single person responsible for the murder of Charlie Kirk and that's Tyler Robinson. However, if the public and if through the trial we are presented with additional information that indeed shows that the Donald Trump administration was involved, that TV USA was involved, that Erica Kirk was involved, that his security team was involved, that Mossad was involved, that any other group or person was involved in this action, there was a second shooter, there was a third shooter, Tyler Robinson was never supposed to be alive, any of that kind of stuff, if we're presented with actual tangible evidence, we can change our minds. But until then, we look at the available evidence and we have to make a call. And here's the other thing. When a left-of-center person kills somebody in the political sphere, what happens to them on the left? They're deified, right? They're lionized, they're worshipped. Look at Luigi Mangione, right? He killed one of those evil capitalist CEOs of a healthcare company. #freeluigi almost immediately, right? That was mainstreamed. That ideology was mainstreamed by a bunch of people on the left. Right? This guy's being worshipped. He's just been the rest of his life in prison, but he's being worshipped as a hero on the left. But let's flip the script a little bit. If a person that identified as being on the right were to murder someone in the political sphere that was on the left, we as conservatives, as Republicans, would see that person as radioactive, anathema. We would decry that as being horrible. [snorts] Like, I will go on the record right now. Name a prominent Democrat. Okay? If Kamala Harris, Joe Biden, uh Hakeem Jeffries, Chuck Schumer, Ilhan Omar, AOC, Barack Obama, Michelle Obama, Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, if any of those people were murdered by somebody that identified on the right, and they said, "Oh, I took him out cuz they were evil, or they're the Antichrist, or they're a pedophile, or they're, you know, part of the deep state, or they're blah blah blah, and all that." I would decry that as horrible, as beyond the pale, not only outside the Overton window, outside of polite society. That person should be taken out of society forever. And guess what? All of the other mainstream voices on the conservative right would say the exact same thing. They would condemn the action. And they wouldn't just condemn it softly online, and then go behind their backs and then also fund those people, or actually be like, "Oh, no, I actually agree with you guys." We would see it as terrible. And And another thing that's wrapped up in all this is leftists don't actually have regard for human life, only human autonomy. Right? They have no higher ethic other than choice. And so, they're just looking at this like, "Oh, well, you know, people are just trying to take our rights, like there there's choice in all that, but here's the thing. Leftist progressives want their political rivals to die. That is so unbelievably clear. But conservatives, like me, want their political rivals to be logical and to change their minds. We want them to change their minds. You think about these things wrongly, we disagree on the ins and outs, but I think you're wrong. I think you should change your ideology, change your position. That's how conservatives think. We don't want you to die. We just want you to not be stupid. And then Christians just want people to turn to Christ. Yes, Christians should be involved in the political world. You can't love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength if you ignore parts of this world. Your faith is not a private thing. It is a public thing. If you've been convinced to keep your Christianity under wraps at the office or or in society, you've been convinced of something that is a lie from the pits of hell. So leftists want their political opponents to die, conservatives, people on the right, want their political opponents to change their minds, but Christians just want everyone to turn to Christ cuz that's ultimately the answer. Because right now, as we've seen, the left has one main goal, one main goal only. Take out Donald Trump. And they're going to do it one of two ways. They've tried to already do it in both ways. But they're either going to put him in jail after they take back over, which is very likely to be in 2028. In 2028, just buckle up, Democrats will likely have control of the House and the Senate and likely the White House. Again, a lot's going to happen between now and the midterms, certainly now and the next general election, but that is an incredibly likely scenario. Or they're going to kill him. Eventually, they're going to find the opportunity, the right amount of security is going to uh fall apart and Donald Trump is going to be killed or he's going to be in prison. And again, I I'm fearful that they will actually attain this goal. I pray that it doesn't happen, but this is obviously what they want to happen and they have the means and the opportunities to do it and they're continuing to get those opportunities. But, one thing that could actually slow all this down and if not end this entire thing uh altogether is we take this Allen fella. He should go to trial quickly. Not in several months, not next year sometime, but he should go to trial quickly. He's obviously we have him dead to rights. We have him on video. Like there could have been no one else. He should be sentenced in a way that matches the crime as if it were actually carried out. And then we should immediately carry out his system is sentence, especially if it's the death penalty. So, let's go back to the previous thing. I I'm absolutely just flabbergasted when somebody attempts a crime like murder, is unsuccessful for whatever reason, thank God, and then we don't charge them as if they had actually done it. So, let's say, you know, I decide I hate my neighbor, okay? I'm going to go get a hammer and I'm going to go beat my neighbor to death because I don't like the the way Moses lawn or something, okay? So, I go grab me a hammer, I go over there with my one arm and all that, and I go in there to attack him, right? And I chase him around the house and all that, and somehow he gets the jump on me, he grabs his phone, he takes off running, I can't catch him, I trip and fall, I hurt myself, blah blah, he calls the police, "Hey, my neighbor just tried to kill me with a hammer." They come, they find me, they arrest me, and I get charged with attempted murder. Well, obviously, in our justice system, if you can call it that, attempted murder and murder do not carry the same sentencing. Attempted murder and first-degree premeditated murder do not carry the same punishment. Why not? Why not sentence me as if I were successful? Why not sentence someone that attempted to rape a woman with the same charge of rape? Like I don't understand the difference. Because I because I'm bad at what I'm trying to do, because I was unsuccessful in what I set out to do, you're going to give me, like, uh a mulligan? As opposed to getting the death penalty or life in prison, you're just going to give me, I don't know, what do people get for attempted murder? 5 years? 10 years? Maybe a little less? Maybe a little more? You're essentially giving me another shot at it, another bite at the apple. So, with this guy, let's charge him and sentence him as if he had been successful. As if he had made it into the room, put a bullet between Donald Trump's eyes, put a bullet between J.D. Vance's eyes, put a bullet between Marco Rubio's eyes, put a bullet between Melania Trump's eyes. Let Let's charge him as if that's what he had done, cuz that's what he intended to do. Because of his own words, we have a manifesto, we literally have him dead to rights. And then, obviously, everyone gets their one appeal, and I've said this a lot before, but someone like that being sentenced and being charged with the crime and being convicted of a crime that matches what would have happened if they were left to their own devices, this person should be given the death penalty, and that should be done quickly. He gets his one appeal. If the appeal does not overturn the original conviction, he is executed publicly at dawn. Live stream it. Show the entire world, this is what happens when you try to kill people because you disagree with them. This is what happens. Don't you think that's going to cause even even someone with brain damage or somebody with mental illness that's on the left, don't you think that's going to cause them to pause just a little bit? Well, maybe I shouldn't do that because, you know, I don't really care about my life. I might lose it in the entire process. But let's say I live. Man, it's going to be a quick trial, a quick appeal, and then they're going to freaking hang me in front of the entire world. That kind of sucks. People look at, oh, you know, capital punishment, you know, isn't a deterrent. Every single study that has looked at that has been bunk. Of course it has an impact. And if it doesn't have an impact, it's because we don't carry it out speedily enough. It's because these trials can take years and years and then the appeals take years and years and years. And so even somebody that is dead to rights, definitely did it, admitted to it, will get sentenced with the death penalty, is not executed potentially for decades, and then at the 11th hour, they'll get a call from the governor, they'll call the warden and say, "I'm commuting their sentence to life imprisonment." So what is the negative consequence? What is the signal to the public that says, "Hey, don't do this."? Like please don't do this thing. It's not to your benefit. It's nonsensical. So it won't happen, but it should happen to this guy. Quick trial, sentencing, carry out the sentence in front of everybody. I think that might tamp this down a little bit. But in this situation as we work towards the close, this is clearly about way more than politics. Of course it's it's existing in the political realm and involves political people, but this is about the fight between good and evil. And no, I don't just mean the political left and the political right. Political left is obviously evil. Political right is evil as well, but they're just getting us they're getting us to hell slowly, right? That's how John Cooper put it. I love the way he put it. It's like, "Look, the the Republican Party is going to take us to hell, too. They're just going to a whole lot slower than the Democrats are. But this entire thing circles around the fight between good and evil. People that are standing for the morals of God versus people that don't believe in that. Again, this Allen assassin fella hated Christianity, hated Christians. Hated Jews. All those things. That that's part of what we're talking about here. And my buddy Josh Hawerton posted this or talked about it recently. He said, "Politics cannot fix what politics did not break." Which is true. Politics didn't break the human heart. Politics is actually downstream from Genesis 3, you see. Because when sin entered the world in Genesis 3, when Eve took the apple, when Adam was just standing there allowing all this to happen, we get political systems that are broken. That are filled with sinners doing sinful horrible things. And then we see conscious nefarious actors taking the stimuli that is put into the system from the political sphere and are ginning people up to do things that are not to their personal benefit and to the murderous detriment of somebody else. And so at this particular time, Christians and specifically pastors have a role to play. Cuz again, a lot of pastors have been convinced, don't get in the political sphere, don't get in the political sphere. Hey, even when politics kind of elbows its way into our lane, well, oh, we're just going to be people about the book. But then they don't even do the book right, right? They they don't evangelize, they don't call people to repentance, they don't disciple people. So, the thing is though, is if you're a pastor listening to this, or if you have your pastor's ear, a shepherd that can't identify the wolf can't protect their sheep from it. You have murderous ideologies that are just being casually talked about and thrown about in culture and society. And you have pastors that won't talk about it. You have soft and hard anti-Semitism that your pastor won't talk about. Because he's afraid of people in the flock or because he's afraid that he might have to do a little bit of research to make sure that he's got all of his ducks in a row. But also for us as Christians, we should be praying for these people. We Again, we want cuz typically a lot of people that are if you're a Christian, you can't be on the left, but if you're a Christian that's on the right, you don't want your opponents to die. You You ultimately want them to be saved. You want them to realize that they are wretched black-hearted sinners that need a savior, and the downstream consequences of that will be to the redounding benefit of the political process because they won't be advocating for things like killing your political opponents, chopping off the healthy breast tissue of gender confused children, killing babies while they're in the wombs of their mothers. They won't be advocating for those things anymore. You know, I talked about in an upcoming interview, a lot of Christians forgot to pray for Joe Biden. They forgot to cuz it was hard. Because he's barely sentient, but whenever he was sentient, he was doing horrible evil things and allowing his administration to do the same. What do you think the gospel could do in that situation? Because Joe Biden identifies as a Catholic, but he's a cultural Catholic, right? He's He Do you think that Joe Biden has put his faith in Jesus Christ for the propitiation of his sin debt? No. Like there's no evidence for that whatsoever. What if he had while he was in office? I've said this before on people I think one of the former Planned Parenthood CEOs or whatever died. I pray I I told you I prayed for the leader of Planned Parenthood to become a Christian. Cuz can you imagine what that would look like for Planned Parenthood? But then it's like, okay, if your job was to make sure that millions of babies died, then if you did not become a follower in Christ, my hope is that you end up in the hottest part of hell. The most torturous part of hell possible. But we can't forget to pray for these people because the gospel can change lives. You've seen it happen for you. You've seen it happen for people in your life that that you love, that you care about. And so, why not give them the same thing? We need to pray for our Democrat leaders that they would turn to Christ. We need to pray for our Republican leaders that aren't followers of Christ that they would turn to Christ because the only answer to all of this is not a supermajority in the Senate. The The You know, uh a a a bulletproof, uh you know, cart that takes your favorite politician around everywhere that keeps [clears throat] them safe. That That's not a filibuster-proof Senate, you know, a major majority in the house. That doesn't fix any of this. It'll help us on the legislative side. It'll help us with laws. It'll help us with the judicial appointments, all the things within the political process. But, ultimately, we need the gospel for all of these people. That's what's going to turn this entire situation around. All right, guys. I appreciate you listening to the show today. Don't forget we are donation-based ministry.
