NTD has produced a special TV series adapted from the book “How the Specter of Communism Is Ruling Our World,“ by the editorial team of ”Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party.“ Watch the ninth episode, ”Infiltrating the West Pt. 3,” here. When the street revolution of Western youths was in full swing in the 1960s, there was one who dismissed their naivety, sincerity, and idealism. “If the real radical finds that having long hair sets up psychological barriers to communication and organization, he cuts his hair,” he said. The man was Saul Alinsky, a radical activist who wrote books, taught students, and personally oversaw the implementation of his theories, eventually becoming the “para-communist” agitator with the most baneful influence for decades. Aside from his worship of Lenin and Castro, Alinsky also explicitly praised the devil himself. In his book Rules for Radicals, one of the epigraphs says, “Lest we forget at least an over-the-shoulder acknowledgment to the very first radical: from all our legends, mythology, and history (and who is to know where mythology leaves off and history begins—or which is which), the first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom—Lucifer.”   ⭕️ Watch in-depth videos based on Truth & Tradition at Epoch TV

Mark Anthony host Truth Talk Live about the last supper parody at the Olympics 

In Revolutionary times, Thomas Paine said the following:“These are the times that try men's souls”.And indeed these are the times that try women's souls, some at least now that the United States Supreme Court has overturned Roe v. Wade.Thomas Jefferson admonished Americans of his time that the blood of patriots must be shed from time to time in order to refresh the Tree of Liberty. In short, the Constitutional America of 1776 (Declaration of Independence) and the Constitutional America of 1787 needed new patriots, new passion, new commitments to liberty and freedom. Now more than ever that is true. The constitutional, rule of law, freedom–liberty America of old is not only under attack but becomes divided, angry and more violent by the day. Freedom and liberty we have always taken for granted are now all the more at risk and at stake.The patriot Patrick Henry provided a testimony applicable to all of us:“Give me liberty or give me death”.Henry was willing to die for freedom. He would live under no form of bondage. Oppression and bondage in his time was English. Today it comes internally from anarchists, that small virulent, violent minority which wishes the destruction of the greatest country on earth.Our forefathers fought for freedom. They gave their blood then which we can assume made Jefferson proud. They gave us the greatest ruling document in the history of mankind, THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES. That incredible document contained the First Amendment which gave every American citizen the following rights and freedoms:1.Freedom of religion2.Freedom of speech3.Freedom of press4.Freedom of assembly5.Freedom of petitionGuaranteed, unconditional, unchanging, FOREVER FREEDOMS. Every one of those sacred, inalienable (God–given) rights and freedoms are at risk today, EVERY ONE! We the People seemed to have lost our vision, our understanding, even in some cases our desire to protect and preserve this incredible country. We have become indifferent to the struggles and problems we face. So many of us are ignorant of our history, and our Constitution, and our rule of law, and how we are governed. So many of us have withdrawn from the political process. As few as 10% will vote in some elections and perhaps no more than 60% of eligible, voting Americans will go to the polls in the most serious of elections. It has become tragic how We the People take democracy for granted. It is as though freedom will always be there no matter what we do. We the People are an easy target for violence and anarchism.One of the most anti–American Americans was one Saul Alinsky. In essence, Alinsky championed the destruction of everything, every institution, every tradition, anything and everything in America so that the country could be rebuilt and reestablished. The philosophy and beliefs of Alinksy were adopted by George Soros among others and the state of objective of Soros and others was to:BRING DOWN AMERICA.Bring it down. Destroy it. Rewrite its history. Do away with its Constitution and its rule of law. Get rid of the moral standards of the country today and especially the Judeo–Christian heritage and morality of the past. Do away with it completely! Beneath the violence, disrupt, and the lack of accountability today is this Alinsky model, the destruction of America, the destruction of everything which America holds dear. WOKE better serve to wake up America, defend itself, its values, morality and principles or all will be lost. WAKE UP AMERICANS, WAKE UP. The time may be near when the blood of real patriots will be required once again in America.We the People assume that we live in a democracy. We live by democratic principles, the core of which is freedom. That is true but our government is not a democracy. Our forefathers who forged our Constitution were suspicious of democracy. They feared an intolerant majority. They created checks and balances which would prevent as much as possible the potentially crushing majority rule. They created for us a REPUBLIC. That of course consisted of a president, senate and house of representatives. It also consisted of an independent federal judiciary with the Supreme Court of essentially nine justices as final arbitrators of the rule of law. Such a republic respected democratic principles but it guarded so very well against abuse.Those founding fathers gave us the concept of federalism. That is, that each of the individual states of America, then 13 and now 50, would be protected, have rights not specifically granted to the federal government (Constitution Amendment X), and otherwise make certain that its people were protected, and larger states would have no real advantage over smaller ones. It was and continues to be a brilliant system and check and balance.The founding fathers gave us an electoral college where leaders were not elected by majority vote but by states according to their population.They gave us the rule of law, they gave us the Declaration of Independence, they gave us the Constitution, incredible documents with incredible freedoms, fully protected. They gave us all of this as a result of the blood of so many Revolutionary patriots shed in the cause of freedom. How tragic it is that we sit back and take those then given freedoms for granted, watch them whittle away daily, observe the indifference among younger generations and the beginning of the erosion and eventually the elimination of our great Country, its way of life and government. The great destroyers win, Alinsky, Soros, Sanders the socialist. They refuse, those anarchists and anti–Americans to work within the system for reform. They work for radical change and ultimate destruction. And, We the People sit back and watch it happen and in so many ways do nothing. Violence is everywhere. There are threats, intimidation, radicalism everywhere. A senator threatens a supreme court justice. Senator Schumer from New York threatened Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh as follows:You will pay the price.It is simply unbelievable how seemingly everything America stands for, believes in, the fundamental structure of our great Country is not only under attack but is being destroyed day by day. History shows us that democracies as the foundation of government cannot last. Democracies in history last at or about 200 years. America is now 246 years young and We the People, our democracy, our great constitutional republic may be near the end. How I for one hope and pray that simply does not happen.The Constitution and its Amendments of the United States is the finest document, political governing document which mankind can produce. But it cannot last forever. Only one document can. And that is THE WORD OF THE LORD, the Holy Bible which gives us the world's only reliable ABSOLUTE TRUTH. The Constitution gives us the freedoms of mankind. The Bible gives us heavenly freedoms, eternal freedoms, the ways of the Lord God Almighty, the most important freedom of all and the most important freedom of all, salvation in Jesus Christ. Man's democracy cannot last, but the democracy of peace and love of Jesus Christ will last forever.Human leaders, people, men and women, politicians and those in power can never last. The only person, leader, visionary, difference maker who can is Jesus of Nazareth, the Christ of Glory. That eternal leader will never fail.So, now in America violence reigns. Everything is under attack. The spiritual warfare has begun. The:FIGHT OF FAITH IS HERE AND NOW!So, my fellow Americans, my fellow Christians, how will you fight this fight of faith? HOW? Put on for sure the armor of the Lord. And the helmet of salvation. And the breastplate of righteousness and be ready for the spiritual war. It is here, IT IS HERE. You will be called upon to defend your faith with everything you have. If you truly believe as a Christian and you will not compromise, you will take on a danger you never have before.How will you respond? Will you stand up to violence? Would you use any means at your disposal to protect your family, your friends and yourself from violence? You will engage in prayer, more prayer perhaps than ever before. But you will be called upon to ACT, and perhaps act returning violence for violence. Would you do that? We the People, we Christians have choices to make we never have before. In prayer, may our Lord lead us to the right decisions for God, and Country, and family, and all humankind.Freedom, inalienable rights, God–given rights, are of the most value, the most important to all. Don't lose them or lose life in the process. May God bless you, my fellow Americans as you energize the courage to stand for Christ, for Christianity and for the greatest Country in the history of mankind.Always remember. FREEDOM ONCE LOST IS LOST FOREVER!

This episode explores the history of American Marxism heavily influenced by radical  Saul Alinsky (1909-1972). His book Rules for Radicals remains a critical revolutionary tract outlining how to gain political power under the rubric of community organizing. A generation of leftist U.S. political leaders, including Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama,  are among his admirers.  Alinsky pioneered the Marxist technique of fueling social unrest, resentment and grievances in pursuit of  political power in America. The counterproposal section offers a Judeo-Christian alternative to Marx's historical materialism. The news portion looks at leftist policies under the Biden administration. The interview hears from Mike Gonzalez, co-author of the recent book NextGen Marxism: What It Is and How to Combat It. Must listening!

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute.    The third Obama-Biden administration continues to exhibit the influence of Saul Alinsky on his community-organizing acolyte, Barack Obama. Indeed, the last and most famous of Alinsky's thirteen Rules for Radicals is being weaponized today more aggressively than ever. It reads: “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it. Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy.”   In practice, this amounts to a political decapitation strategy aimed at prosecuting and, if possible, imprisoning Donald Trump. One of his key advisors, Peter Navarro, is currently serving hard time for so-called “contempt of Congress.” Another, Steve Bannon, will do so beginning July 1.   Fortunately, far from such lawfare cutting off these Obama-Biden targets' “support networks,” their prospective or actual incarceration is only increasing the resolve of American patriots to resist what amounts to real threats to democracy.   This is Frank Gaffney.

Doug Wilson pastors Christ Church in Moscow, ID, and is the author of over 100 books. According to Doug, Christians have much to learn from our enemies. Hence, Mark asks Doug about his book Rules for Reformers which is a reformational counter point to Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals. Doug makes the distinction between reformation and revolution and explains how the principles of war can be applied to the culture war. Some of the questions that will be answered are: What can Christians learn from a radical community organizer like Saul Alinsky? What is the difference between principles and methods, and why is the distinction important? Why is education important in the culture wars? What is “smash mouth” incrementalism? Is the pro-life movement a failure and are pro-life bills that fail to outlaw abortion evil? Do current abortion abolition bills require a state to secede from the union if passed?   Doug Wilson demonstrates how we can have differences in tactics and be respectful. This episode provides some good principles on how to disagree without being disagreeable.   Please watch, listen, and share!   The Mark Harrington Show is on Mark's Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube accounts. Mark's show is available on all the popular podcast platforms as well as on Mark's flagship website: MarkHarrington.org

Join Clément Petitjean and Alex Han in conversation about the new book Occupation Organizer. This event took place on April 30, 2023. How can activists seize on this moment of unrest to build durable, effective organizations for change? Join Clément Petitjean and Alex Han for a history and critique of the community organizing tradition and the fight to build collective power. The rise of the professional organizer has seen community organizing as a site of contestation. Chicago, where Alinsky first developed his model of the “professional radical”, is home to vast networks of community-based organizations that bring together multitudes in the fight for collective liberation—led by those who do the work as part of the community, rather than standing apart from it. With Brandon Johnson set to usher in a new era of progressive politics in Chicago, the time is now to learn from the successes, failures, and contradictions of the past. Get Occupation Organizer from Haymarket: https://www.haymarketbooks.org/books/...

Show Notes and Transcript Dwight Schultz is our podcaster in residence and we are five episodes in to his zany common sense commentary on this increasingly mad world.  It has been many years since Dwight has done a video interview so this is a special treat, he discusses all things podcast and how this new media medium is having such an impact.  He shares some stories from his friendship with Andrew Breitbart and how he was instrumental in Dwight being so vocal as a Conservative.  We finish off with a call for every lover of freedom to use their voice to calmly speak truth.  We each have a responsibility to help open the eyes of those around us and we will see real change when we seize those opportunities. A respected performer on Broadway, Dwight Schultz found everlasting fame by playing the certifiable "Howling Mad" Murdock on the action series "The A-Team" (1983-86). A living, breathing cartoon with a seemingly endless selection of voices and accents at his command, Murdock provided the air power for the A-Team's clandestine adventures, provided that his compatriots could break him out of the mental hospital where he resided. One of the show's most popular and memorable figures, Murdock ensured Schultz steady work on television and on the big screen playing Reginald Barclay in "Star Trek: The Next Generation" An accomplished voice actor, Dwight can be heard in numerous hit computer games and in countless animated shows.

It's great to have you back, and this time in a moving picture. Thanks so much for joining us today. (Dwight Schultz) Yes, it's my favourite thing in the world to do, looking at oneself. Looking at oneself, it's just, I've, you know there are these actors like Henry Fonda used to, he couldn't watch himself. I have never been able to watch myself. It's a, it's, in show business. It just is one of those, you just find, you spend the rest of the day going over every little thing you hated and critiqued and you can't go on. So it's best not, and that's why I love the theatre. You don't have to look at yourself. The audience is telling you that it's working or it's not. And, but this is modern entertainment and modern news. This is it. So you have to be able to put your toes in there with toenail fungus and all. Well, I want to touch on the podcast because it's been a surreal experience having Dwight Schultz do podcasts for me and for us at Hearts of Oak. I've thoroughly enjoyed listening to your thoughts dropping onto that audio communication. Maybe I'll play just I think a two-minute clip or one-and-a-half-minute clip, of one of them to get, give people an idea of what they will find and underneath on the screen hearts of oak.podbean.com, is where people can find it. Let us know what, because I guess you put that down and it's what's happening currently. There's a lot happening currently. There are never a shortage of things to comment on, kind of what has it been like putting your thoughts down on those?  Okay. So yeah, but just let us know what that's been like for you. Well, well, I mean, you know, it is streaming of consciousness. I mean, that's what I, you know, I have done radio for Mark Masters and the Talk Radio Network. I had my own podcast many, many years ago. And it was, you do a show and you do 45 minutes or an hour and then that's it. This is a, I wanted to do an edited thoughts during the day. And frequently, routines come up in my mind during the day when you're talking, and they don't come out in an hour broadcast. But I get ideas for comedy bits, and that's what we call them, bits. And that's what I am. I'm basically a... A bit guy. I'm doing my bit. And you find things that strike you as humorous, and you wish you had had that in the podcast or in the radio broadcast. But this way, I can do that. As I'm putting together and stitching together thoughts, I will then spend several hours working on something that I found funny, and I think others will. Usually, it's outrageous nonsense that people take seriously. And for instance, the Babylon Bee. I love the Babylon Bee in the United States, and I used as an example the other day their very pithy description of the attack on Israel by Hamas. And they used Cain and Abel as the analogy. And they, you know, Cain killed Abel and immediately called for a ceasefire after checking to see if Abel's pulse had stopped, you know. And that kind of thing is brilliant. I mean, they're brilliant. They just are brilliant. And it's not easy to come up with some of these ideas. They are amazing. They hit it every time. And they have a, so that's that's sort of the kind of thing I try to do in the midst of blah, blah, blah, talking. The bits are actually more important than the blah, blah, blah. But the blah, blah, blah fills the time.  So it's actually I've got a friend and her her dream is to be a writer for Babylon Bee. Oh, that's a high bar.  Yes, that would be wonderful. But, but I, you know, the last thing I did was, was Xi, Xi coming over to see our, um. Our illustrious president, a man of many careers. He should have been an actor. That's what he should have been. He should have been an actor. He's much better. But I just saw, and I did, I mean, I literally thought of the conversation between Xi and a friend in San Francisco after he met with our illustrious president, giving away the store, you know, we, you know, he's, he's been called by some famous, columnists in the United States, a controlled asset of the an enemy, right. And I think it's fairly accurate. And so I just did, you know, I did a routine, I did a routine on it and indeed, I think I got my inspiration from Greg Gutfeld on the, for the routine, but anyway, it happens and it happens in 10 minutes. Sometimes it happens in three hours, but, that's, you know, that's my view of their conversation and what was going to happen ultimately. Well, let me, I just want to play a two minute clip and then ask you for kind of, it's obviously different from scripted, what you get voiceover and have done for 20 years. Let me just play this two minute clip and let people have a flavour of what they can can find on your many podcasts, up to five now. So let me play this clip here... (Clip plays) Anybody who looks at this dumb piece of dead meat with strings being pulled by Barack Obama and our country being sold down the river, when all of the evidence is there and all of the good people who worked hard are being called criminals and all of the criminals are accusing us of what they are doing. Donald Trump will not turn this into a dictatorship. We already have a dictatorship. We have a Department of Social Justice now. That's all you need to know. All that you have to do is look at what is happening in the streets. Please call me by my pronouns. Call me by my pronouns and I have 12 of them. All right, and please go to Citizen Free Press and look at the video of the dumbass who was caught drunk driving and what excuses this individual used to try to get out of being caught drunk driving. It's what's being taught in schools. How to avoid arrest for drunk driving. First of all, pull the number of pronouns that you have in your wallet out and stick them on the windshield and have the officer read them in the dark. And if you can, put them on backwards so that he has to go around the other side to read them. I mean, it's please, folks. Never in the history of the United States have such incomprehensibly horrific ideas been used to destroy society. But they they're horrific because it is so clear and obvious. (Clip ends) It's a great end never in the history of such a horrific. I thought it's a beautiful end because it's a reality check. It really is.  It is. And it doesn't stop. It doesn't stop day to day. And I see things and I know I'm not the only one. I mean, I know that. We know people who all see this and we want to scream out for and let me give you another for instance. This one truly, truly gets me in the very first podcast I did underneath everything in the introduction, I use Barack Obama screaming at his, we have to have a national police force that's as powerful as the United States military, blah, blah, blah. And everybody, and I remember when he did that and everybody was saying, what the hell is he talking about? Right? Well, what he was talking about is defund the police, re-imagine the police. The police are not there. And it started big time during COVID with George Floyd, which we are now discovering was a communist hoax. They all are just like COVID. So you had Floyd and you had COVID. The police are defunded. They're called names. Adams in New York is now, what, they're behind by 400, 1000 police officers? You don't have a police force locally. So what happened? What is the plan? What are the communists doing? Well, we defund, or as Barack says, re-imagine them not being there. And then the Deus Ex Machina, the federal government, comes in and says, we will come in and save you. We will fund the police. Well. You know, the Congress of the United States, the house just passed the money for an FBI building that is bigger than the Pentagon. Now, Barack wanted that, right? They're funding it. They're funding the beginnings of the way the communists imagine the country, a national Gestapo that, is just like Klaus Schwab says, you know, Xi is the perfect model. That's the model for the world that we're going to give you in which you will own nothing but be happier for it. And here are members, Republicans in the House of Representatives funding this building bigger than the Pentagon. Why? We don't need a national police force nor an FBI that needs a building bigger than the Pentagon. But this is the plan. And you get to it, and you can look at every Democratic city that's struggling right now. They're all struggling, and people are saying, why aren't the police coming to help us? You don't have any police. It's not time for the Deus Ex Machina. It's not time for the feds to step in yet. But just keep coming. The commies are coming. The commies are coming, and they're going to come with a solution. But it's going to be a government solution, and you're not going to be happy about it. Anyway...  Where is it? Obviously, when you did your podcast a while ago, then obviously I had watched some of the clips of you on with Jamie Glazov. And I mean, how does, how do things look as, back in those days, there were issues, but it seems to have notched up such a degree. And so kind of how do you see whenever you were commenting focused on the news, you haven't been for quite a while. And these recent podcasts, you're back into observing what is happening. And kind of how do you see it differently with the different issues that we that we now face? Well, I'll tell you what, you know, you, well, if you, I mean, Jamie is on to everything. I mean, Jamie Glazov, you mentioned, he's nailed it and he's continually continuing to nail it. You sit back and you, I keep saying, I wish I had continued recording. Because I used to record everything. But then when I stopped, because I had to go back to work, I had to make money, you know, you, you, you, but it's, it's, you see, I see better now than I ever have, how the communists, the Marxists, the globalists all together, all working together, how they did it, what was going on behind the scenes. And even though Jamie saw it, I saw it, we didn't do anything about it. We brought it to people's attention, but it was just a small, a small program, actually. You know, it's important to recognize that they had a plan. You don't. When I, here's a side-line. When I was working with Andrew Breitbart, and who I loved, who got me to do things I would never have done in my life, right? And I was having a hamburger with him. And I told him the story of first coming to California. To audition for a TV series. And along the street, there are these vending machines with free newspapers or papers for $25, I mean, 25 cents. And I went to the want ads. This is the truth. I'm an audio fanatic, right? So I went to see if there was anybody, any audio equipment being sold. And I just saw activists wanted activists wanted activists wanted activists wanted activists wanted. Never said what for? Just activists wanted and I said to Andrew I said what the hell is this and he said well, of course, you know. They don't have to say what it's for because only libs are in the activist business, Conservatives are not looking at a centralized world. They want a decentralization of everything there. They are by nature, not activists. Activism is to achieve power. It's to go out, assemble a group, get done what you want to have done, and then grow it. So you need to advertise for people. And you only have to say activist, and you know precisely who you're going to get. And they all want to be at the top of the pyramid, when in the truth is that most of them will end up at the bottom. And then by the time they're ready to revolt, it's too late. And so what these individuals did, these Marxists, socialists, globalists, instead of what they did in the 60s where they went after college students, they then said, no, no, we've got to get them younger. And they went for grade school, preschool. And I'll say this, that the imams in France after 9-11, who said, we soon will own this country. Our armies are growing around Paris right now. I think they got the hints there. And Andrew McCarthy wrote a book called Grand Jihad, which was about how the socialists, Marxism, communists got along really well with the radical Islamists because their ideology was the same. They found each other. One has a god at the head, the other the state. Someday they won't be able to work together. But their ultimate, the ultimate view of the world is totalitarian and they work really well. And they did. They got the ideas to go after the children at the very early. They wanted to. Communists always wanted to destroy the family. They tried. And if you go back to, if you go back to some of the writings in 1920 in Russia, which was to become the Soviet Union, you will see it looks like it was written in the New York Times yesterday, talking about the family's not sufficient. The husband's not sufficient. We need the state to take care of all of the children and mothers. It's just too much. It's just too much. You are an oppressed minority because you're forced to bear children. It's all of this stuff, and they knew what to do, and they have done it. And it scares me that it's possibly too late. I think it's never too late, actually. And I see panic in the works, especially in the United States. but they're doing the same thing in Europe. You see it start there, you see it moved to Canada and then it comes here, but you do see revolt. I think the important thing is to make people aware that this is going on, this is their intention, ultimate control. And how people can, why people wanna be ruled by Klaus Schwab, it's so I just want to say slob, Schwab, why they want to be ruled by that Nazi, I don't understand, but they do. They, they, you know, they, they think they are going to get something for nothing. They actually hear those phrases and they think, oh, that's going to be wonderful. I don't have to worry about anything. I don't have to work. It's going to be given to me. And I have had, I have actually had conversations with people who have said that. And so those things work. I don't, it would never work with me. It wouldn't work with my parents. It wouldn't work with the people. It's not going to work with you, but they don't need it. They only need a minority, a strong minority to say, yes, I want, I want, I want my life taken care of. And it's I wish I had been more active, a greater activist. And the death of Andrew Breitbart was a horrific... Well, can I ask you that one? Ask you about that liberal destruction that we're seeing. But actually on how did you meet Andrew Breitbart? How did that happen? Oh, that was pure serendipity. I, I've always worn my conservatism on my sleeve. So which is why I'm on cocktail napkins. Don't hire him. Oh, you're one of them. You're one of them. A lot of that, right? And so I never saw it as a zero-sum game, but it made tough, you know, you are not, you're on the outs. And so a friend of mine invited me to a, basically an organization called Friends of Abe. It was modelled after Friends of Dorothy, you know, the conservatives, It was, you know, on the lam in the down low. And there were these small gatherings of people who were conservatives, who were actors, who were having a rough time. And I was at a small meeting and Andrew was at this particular meeting. And the question was, well, what have you experienced in Hollywood, that you would consider, you know, a, you were prohibited from working. Let's put it that way. And I told the story of a producer and I actually, I'm not going to mention his name here. I'll tell you why, but, Andrew heard me tell this story, which was really as a young actor, it was pretty, pretty amazing. He basically, I had come back from working with, Charlton Heston in a play in Los Angeles. And I had wonderful conversations with Heston. I mean, just wonderful conversations. And this producer at this theatre complex heard me, who was quite a big producer in Hollywood, right? He heard me saying glowing things about Charlton Heston. This was before Ronald Reagan won his election in the United States. And he heard me, and he said, well, no Reagan asshole is ever going to work in my production. And I went. I mean, I, believe me, this this theatre group is a small theatre group. I mean, I was I was not prepared for it. And, you know, he laughed and he was waiting for for me to respond in kind, and I just didn't. Right. And so Andrew heard me tell this story and he said, you've got to write this. You've got to write it. You've got to put it in big Hollywood and you have to use your name. And most of the actors, he said, most of the actors who write for me are using pseudonyms. And I said, oh, my God, Andrew, I just don't, you know, no, you have to. If you do, other actors, others in show business will see that you can use your name and you will encourage them to do the same thing. It took me a while to, but I did it. I did it. And in fact, I have to say, I lost a lot of friendship because not only did I write about this producer, but he was dead, and so you don't write about the dead, right? But this was absolutely a true story, and there wasn't anybody who knew him who did not know that it was true. But I lost a lot of friends doing it, but I also gained a lot of friends. And there suddenly, and there's several, several well-known actors who started using their names on big Hollywood and they've done well, they've done very well. And, it was, it was tough, you know, it was a tough thing to do. But it was, but it's a little thing. I mean, think about it using your name to write and say something that's true. But the atmosphere as Orson Bean, who was. Andrew's father-in-law actually said that the atmosphere, in Hollywood today was worse than it was during the blacklisting period for the communists. He said, it's actually worse. Conservatives are being treated worse than the communists were. It was. I mean, you are one of them, was a frequent retort, if you said something. And you had to be very careful. You just I just lost a lot of friends. And it always happened at the wrong time. There's never a right time. But Andrew set me on the straight and narrow about this stuff. He he truly was courageous. And he, when I told him the story about the activists, you know, he said, you know, he just said, you have to understand that they, culturally, they are an amalgam. They are powerful because of numbers and they recognize that. We, on the other hand, don't want to do that. And we tend to just say, it'll be all right. It's going to work out. They people can't be that stupid and then you look at this demented individual who's been elected president and people are. They, you know, they don't care and now you're hearing people. Well, I'm not voting for the man I'm voting for the party. This is the new one. I'm not voting for the man. I'm voting for the party and read Edward Dmytryk odd man out. [He was one of the Hollywood ten who realized what was happening and turned on the Communist Party and it's a great book. It's a great book and you begin to see it is a tall order to take on that many people who literally do not care at the end if they have to kill somebody. And you see them turning that on us. You hear Donald Trump being called every name in the bloody book, and yet you are watching one of the greatest crimes I can think of in terms of what's happening in our legal system. It's just a disgrace. And you're going to see a huge, I think. Schism in our judiciary, because there are, I'm sorry to say, John Roberts, there are Trump judges, there are Obama judges, and there are Clinton judges, and they are not getting along well right now in the United States of America. But Andrew was, he really understood culture. He really understood what was what, and he inspired a lot of people. And he changed my life. He changed my life completely. And I began to take special note of how the Marxists, the globalists, the communists work socially and on the bottom end. And when I was working with Jamie, that was sort of the beginning. I mean, I was, that was the beginning of things, but today I really see how they had, you always heard the communists had a five-year plan. No, they had a 30-year plan. They had the long game. Xi has the long game in mind. I mean, to come here while his economy is collapsing, and to get a standing ovation by corporate billionaires is quite an accomplishment. And all of the lies he told, and what he's looking for. They're bailing him out, our enemy. I mean, Sequoia capital that Bannon talks about all the time, you know, they are bailing out our enemy whose military has said they are going to war with the United States and they're going to destroy us. Fine, you know, Khrushchev said, you know, the capitalists will sell us the rope with which we will hang them. We don't seem to learn. The difference this time is that we actually, they're actually in our government at the highest levels and there has to be a cleaning of the house, there really does and that scares them. Completely. Can I pick up some you in the middle you're talking about liberals and that anger that activism that destruction which they're running down and I was think well is that because a lack of I mean Christianity has played such a part in U.S. history and U.K. history that we now seem to have that void where Christianity is not there, the church is not there. It's always provided stability and an anchor and an understanding for life. I wonder is it anger because a generation no longer has that certainty? But then I was also thinking when you talked about conservatives not wanting to fight, possibly part of the problem is because many conservatives have a hold of Christianity and maybe they abdicate responsibility. They say, well, God, this is yours, I don't have to do anything. So I wonder is that a double-edged sword that we have?  Oh, listen, what you just said is so true. It is so absolutely true. And I, again, I remember when Barack Obama, before he was president. A couple, I think it was two years before he was suddenly 2006, he said, he said, the United States is no longer a Christian nation. At that time, 70% of the population identified as Christian. So it was a lie, but it was a lie that he was, he wanted to create. He wanted to push into reality. And the removal of prayer, the removal, the attack on organized religion was beginning at that time. And you could see Christians backing off. Backing off. And, you know, well, you're too harsh. It's why Judaism and why the Judeo-Christian ethic, well, they're so judgmental. You know, we have the Ten Commandments. There's so many don'ts. There's so many don'ts. And you're just not warm. And what's the word they use? Oh, inviting that you're just not inviting, you know, you push people away from, because you're, there are things that you have, you say are right and wrong. They went right for the gut. If you say there's right and you say there's wrong, then there's no relativity. And we know that everything is relative. And, of course, I think 9-11, the attack on 9-11 and the, and I do believe this, I don't think most Christians in the United States, not about the rest of the world, but in the United States, knew that there was Islam. I don't think they knew that there was a Muslim world out there. I don't. I don't I I don't think they you know, they're very typical. They're going about their business and not aware. Oh, they knocked down the World Trade Towers. Are they angry about something? You know, oh quick. I think oh. Where's where though it happened here, is the other World Trade Center's in New York. Oh my god You know, it's ah, this is true. I'm gonna tell you a story. Boy, I'm blabbering, right? Listen, listen, listen to this story. This is the last thing I did on camera. It was a TV series about the CIA shot in L.A. And I went into wardrobe, I'm not going to mention, I'm not going to mention who did this or whatever it is, but I went in and this is right after 9-11 and, I'm saying, my God, what an irony, here I am. And I was already moving into the voiceover world because there was, it was far more interesting and more fun. That's it then, than what was happening, but here I am doing this CIA, at the Veterans Administration Cemetery was the site. And I was talking to an employee about 9-11, and what happened and my friends there in New York and how unbelievably incomprehensible it was. This individual said, I don't have any connection with that. I don't have any, I don't have any, you know, I don't have any connection with that, you know, everything will just go on. I mean, literally, and I came home to my wife and I said, I was speechless, which for me, you can tell, I, I know how to talk, right. I was speechless. I couldn't, I cried a little bit because it was, this was not said out of, it was sit out of an emptiness of mind. The enormity of what occurred was and could have obviously I mean, the idea that there were only thirty five hundred people killed that day is just, it should have been thirty thousand thirty five forty thousand. And here was somebody who had no connection with it. And I'm sure she was not, shouldn't have said that. I'm sure that person, was not a bad person, just empty of the import that the world has changed. This was a, this was a statement of war that was cultural and military. And we are seeing it today and people are after the attack and I, if you, if you are a Christian and you don't understand that you are a target of what happened in Israel, you're fooling yourself. This is not going to stop. It's not going to stop. And you are a target. And one of the leaders of Hamas just said it. They say it, and they do it, and they have permission to not kill. You know, the Ten Commandments, it's thou shalt not murder. But they have permission to murder. It isn't. And you need to understand that you're on the list, and it's not wrong to say it. And if you pretend that that's not the case, things are going to get much worse. And I think that's something that we have to come to grips with today, that what's going on is, does not heed well for for the future unless action is taken. So anyway, that was my story about 9-11. And how do you push back? Because there's obviously when you were doing podcasts back whenever you started with Jamie, there was much.  And before that, I did them before, long before that, before Jamie, but go ahead. But there were the voices on the scene, the information, the media was more trusted, there were much fewer alternative voices, fewer platforms to put out, just having podcasting platforms now and that wealth of reach that you can now have. Is that a way of pushing it? Because I am not 100% hopeful in a political solution or a legal solution, and I'm wondering, is media a method of wakening up the public to providing that pushback or do people just shrug their shoulders and actually not really care? Well, you see, the media is certainly part of the control. They have been. I mean, Walter Cronkite, for instance, made no bones about it. The CIA was involved, When it was just CBS, ABC, and NBC in the United States, the CIA was involved in each one of those networks. They are and they have been in control. And once you say, oh, the government actually is in control of the news we get. You then begin to see more clearly that activity underneath. And till the point where we have reached today, where all of the news media are, you only hear the government point of view. They have been exposed by Donald Trump. He exposed them. Steve Bannon and War Room would not exist if it were not for the fact that most people who were on the conservative, who voted for Donald Trump, saw the government spend four years and three billion dollars overthrowing a president of the United States. They all came out of the closet. And an alternative media has bloomed. Hearts of Oak, War Room, which is an, which is basically international now through, and one knows, one is aware of, Klaus slobs, a constant harping on the fact that, you know, or we can remove the internet, you know, it can go down, it will go down to internet. The grid will go. And the threats that are implied there, you know, It's fierce communication. It's like you say, okay, this can happen. That threat is over your head. That this new, all right, we are the alternative. Here is an alternative voice to, and you now know that the government runs ABC, NBC, CBS, and CNN for God's sake, you know, run. And it was always that way, but not as exposed as it is today. But the alternative media is absolutely essential. And they're not at the point where they can pull the plug. They're not at that point yet, because then the next step is mass murder. And that's where it comes. It comes in the planning. Of course, they tried it with the vaccines. You have to remember, you have to go back and remember that Davos, the World Economic Forum, had this video, I remember it, of the vaccine being given as your passport, your vaccine passport instead, you know, to everything. And it was a wonderful video. We're killing you as we're giving you your, you know, it's a remarkable situation. But, all of this stuff is right. It's we, we have to find a second grid. I mean, I think that's the only, the only way we're actually going to survive is to have a second grid. And it was the very first thing that, our illustrious president did was when Donald Trump kicked the Chinese out of our electric grid. And the first thing that that Biden did was invite them back in. And I'm sorry, it's a catastrophe waiting to happen. We don't need a sunspot to rain down on us. We have 10, 20,000 Chinese men of military age in the country today. And all of that you have to worry about, you know, and you shouldn't be worrying about that in this world, but the media is. The propaganda, the Wall Street control of our minds, holy cow, it's a proven vessel. And they took it and ran with it. They were exposed. And now we have to undo it all. I don't know. And what you just said, I don't know that that's possible. I don't. But I hope it is. I pray it is. And I think with a lot of hard work, It can, we can save ourselves, we can. But it's going to take a massive amount of energy, a mass, I love, you know, the getting rid of, I love the fact Xi leaves and the next day, we're getting rid of the stoves, we're getting rid of stoves, we're getting rid of gas, we're not gonna drill anymore, we're not, Xi, can you hear this? We're doing what you said. You know, it's like, oh my God, oh my God, it's like, see, it's so sad, it's so incredibly sad and the Congress is going, well, I don't know, it's all going to collapse anyway. I hope it happens soon. You know, I don't know. And I also, I'm beginning to think and give credence to the fact that the vaccinations, have had a mental effect on people, it crosses the blood-brain barrier, and Naomi Wolf had suggested that there would be irrational behaviour as a result of it. And I thought, well, no, I think she was probably onto something. Yeah, that does add up. Final question, on you. In the podcast, it's spending 30, 40 minutes with you and your thoughts. And you're just putting down what you think.  Don't be so harsh, please. But from your I mean, from a film career, from I mean, from A-Team to Ben 10, I mean, it's diverse. And then video games all mixed in with that. How much of yourself could you put in. You obviously have to excel in acting, in your character, in your voice ability, but how much of yourself were you able or could you put in as an actor? Well, I mean, that's why, you know, I listen to Jordan Peterson say, if you have anything to contribute, to what you see, this is the time to do it. And it's now, that's it. And I watched what he has been through and others. And what do I have to contribute? I'm an actor. I used to walk around in New York saying, why the hell would anybody pay to see me or anybody? Why? What is it? What is it? Like with the Babylon Bee, if I can, through an absurdity, knock somebody on the head to say, oh my God, I never thought of that. If I can just point out the absolute absurdity of people calling Donald Trump a totalitarian fascist Nazi, when that's what they have been doing. And that is the Alinsky, the famous, you know, his famous statement, you accuse them of what you are doing and they're doing it every day and they get away with it. If you can stop them from getting away with that by voting against them, you know, this whole thing of voting. And of course, I do believe they stole the election. There's no question. And I saw a headline in the paper today about in Arizona, this county in Arizona with 100,000, they couldn't count the ballots. It was they were on the third day and they had made 46 errors. And there was this other. And I thought to myself, Argentina just had an election and 30 million people and all of the votes were counted in one night. Right, but this little county in Arizona and here's a headline, right? And what is this? This headline is telling you, oh, these people who want paper ballots, it's just not gonna happen. It's too hard. It's too hard to count. Try it. Look, how old are you? Shake your fingers, you're not nimble, the papers fall and you have to bend over and it hurts your back. And look, I found another ballot. And there's always another ballot that you're going to find in the paper bank. So, no, no, let's keep the machines and let's keep it electronic, okay? I mean, it's this kind of thing. And you begin to realize, as an actor, I can perhaps, if I'm lucky, once or twice... Click somebody on the head and say okay this is, this is potential this this this I'm not going, (Barking) it's my dog she knows it's about time to stop, oh Ziva stop it.  Has Ziva been on your podcast yet  No, no she hasn't, no she hasn't.  There's a thought  Well you see the podcast, that's why another reason and I wanted to stitch it together. The podcast is 15 minutes takes an entire day. And then I stitch it together, and it's all done. If you have a golden period like this, there's always the potential that the canine who runs the family. Her name is Ziva. Ziva was a character on NCIS, and she left the show. One of our favourite characters. So we had to keep her around.  Yes. Israeli character, I remember.  Yes. Yes. Very, very, very our favourite. But but and the dog is a great German shepherd. Just a great, great dog. But and she does respond to my admonitions because I feed her. It's a good communist household technique. No food. No. But yes, it's you know, it's what I can do. That's it. And Jordan Peterson, I truly do appreciate what he's been through in Canada. And he's so articulate. Oh my God, he articulates. Like he was like Andrew, Andrew Breitbart was articulate. Bannon is articulate. There are so many people who have come out of the woodwork, to, I would not, you, I would not know who you were if it were not for Steve Bannon. You can blame him right. Well, no, no, no. It's amazing because you're across the pond and you see the world. Who was it? Antonin Scalia spoke at a friend of Abe event, and he said, gather with people of like minds because he discovered in the judiciary, it was, you would be an out, you became an outcast. So he said, don't be an outcast. Gather with like minds there are people who think like you particularly if you see the world correctly, but the more people who say yes that is what I se. It is invasion of the body snatchers, it really is people have been hijacked. Money, sex, when the joke about Epstein not killing himself is not a joke you discover that. And as you know, I said to you, I believe in the Oscar Wilde comment, everything in the world is about sex except sex. Sex is about power. And power is in everything to some degree. And they have found a way. You don't belong in the club if you can't be blackmailed. That's the entrance fee is blackmail. You are part of it. Then you get all of the benefits. but remember to toe the line. People who don't do that. The Jordan Petersons of the world who up front say, not me, I see the world the way he does. And the idea that Christianity is being attacked and destroyed from every angle, tells me something about the people who are doing it. It doesn't tell me anything about Christianity except that it's a threat. And I go back to what Thomas Jefferson said that if, and anybody can take this, whether you're Christian or not, if Christianity, if there was no Christianity, it would have to be invented. Well, it is real, and it is there, and they're attempting to destroy it. Why? You ask the question why, and you'll change your mind about the world. And look at the people who want to destroy it and how they want to destroy it, in little increments. It is the crocodile, it's Winston Churchill said it, you know, the crocodile, you're hoping that the crocodile will eat you last, and the crocodile is real. But Christianity is there, it was, and I do believe. Some of the most thoughtful Jews like Dennis Prager, rabbis, that I have listened to and I have spent some time talking to them, It is, there are things that are a force for good are recognized by everybody and things that are a force for evil are also recognized, hang around people who recognize both. And Jordan Peterson, I tip my hat to you and to you, Peter, and to Bannon and to everybody. That has been an inspiration to me. I don't think I could get around. I mean, it's hard sometimes listening to the truth. You know it. I know it. And I know a lot of people who cannot listen to it. And really, I mean, seriously, they're affected in a way. I can't. I can't do it. I can't. I just can't listen to that. I can't read that. I don't want to know that. Well, you have to know it because it will affect your life. Dwight, it's wonderful to have you on. I think speaking with you, getting to know you is the top of my surreal list of the last four years watching when you're, I don't know if I was seven or eight, I think, A-Team. I don't know if it was for, seven or eight-year-olds. Yeah, it was it was it was a comic book with heroes, you know, and the heroes happened to be Vietnam veterans and that was the the Tribute to Steven J. Cannell and he was attacked for it There you go.  I don't know if you want a crazy helicopter pilot, but anyway, that's that's a whole that's a whole other, Dwight, thank you so much for coming on. It's been wonderful having you on the podcast and there's the the link again on the screen. And maybe we'll have you back for another video interview sometime in the near future. Who knows? And, you know, if I can, any time, you know, I'm I'm a I'm a blabbermouth. You know, I'm I'm a mugger. I am. You know, I admit what I am. I'm not a great, listen. I always knew I wasn't going to be a movie star. I always knew it because I couldn't ride a horse. Movie stars can, they get on a horse for the first time. And I got on a horse and the horse turned around and went the opposite direction. It's true. It's true. In fact, there was a horse riding scene in a movie I did called Fat Man and Little Boy, and I'm riding on it. And it was a galloping scene, and it never made it into the movie. And I'm coming into the scene, and I went flying off the horse onto the ground. That was me. No movie star here. None. I knew it. I accept my fate. Thank you Pete.  Well Dwight, it's so good to have you on. Thanks so much for your time.

In today's explosive episode, we're pulling back the curtain on Vivek Ramas Swami, the "golden boy" of next-gen politics. You know, the guy everyone and their grandma is singing praises about? Well, hold onto your hats, because this isn't your run-of-the-mill campaign fluff piece. We're diving deep, and I mean Mariana Trench deep, into the hidden corridors of Ramaswamy's life—from his George Soros-funded stint at Yale Law School to his oh-so-coincidental feature on the World Economic Forum website. But wait, there's more! We kick off this jam-packed episode with a bizarre tale you've got to hear to believe. Ever heard of the "Don't Tread on Me" flag? Of course you have. Well, some woke school district tried to ban a 12-year-old from sporting it on his backpack. Yep, apparently it's now "racist." But don't worry, we've got a happy ending to this madness, and it's one you'll want to hear. So before you blindly jump on the Ramaswamy hype-train, you might wanna know who's conducting it, right? Trust me, you don't want to miss this no-holds-barred, tell-it-like-it-is episode. It's time to shake up the echo chamber, question the narrative, and expose the truth.   All links: https://linktr.ee/theaustinjadams Substack: https://austinadams.substack.com   ----more----  Full Transcription Hello, you beautiful people and welcome to the Adams Archive. My name is Austin Adams, and thank you so much for listening. Today. On today's episode, we are going to be doing a deep, deep dive into presidential candidate Vivek Ramas Swami. Now, you might be saying why we love this guy, and I get it. I've been singing his praises for quite some time now. Uh, I have, have had many, many times told many people about how excited I was for his candidacy, but I'm not just going to blindly follow what everybody else is doing, and I'm not just going to buy into the hype when I see some red flags. So that's what we'll going over today is just some of those red flags and I'll let you make your own decision. But by the end of this, I hope to have a conclusion for you from my perspective. Okay. So this episode will be going into all of the history of Avek Ramas Swami from his George Soros funded time at Yale Law School to his alleged, uh, mishap where he just so happened to find himself listed on the World Economic Forum website. Hmm. And then even deeper into his time in a fraternity at Yale until now. So we'll watch some of the clips. I'll tell you why I like the guy. I'll tell you why I think the guy could be a great candidate, but I'll also tell you why there's some red flags being waved in my book now. The only other topic that we will discuss before that is going to be that there was a 12 year old child going to school who was told, if you've ever seen the flag, the yellow flag, I know you've seen it with a snake on it that says, don't tread on me. Right. Everybody knows that flag. Most people like me correlate it with the United States Marine Corps, but we'll look at the history of that because it came into question during a school district telling a child that they could not walk around school with that patch on their backpack because it was allegedly racist. Hmm. But we do have a conclusion to this and one that I'm actually proud to share in a world of so much wokeness. So stick around for that. First, I need you to head over to the CK Austin Adams, do sub stack.com. Sign up for the podcast companion. Then I need you to subscribe and leave a five star review. Alright guys, I appreciate it a lot. We've been getting some great reviews recently. I can't tell you how much I appreciate it. It's the only way that you can give back right now for all of the hard work that I'm putting into this. This is now the 84th episode, which means almost over a hundred hours that we've spent here together. And there's no way to pay me back other than just leaving a review. That's all I want. Just spread the message, send this video, send this out to two different people. The podcast, subscribe on YouTube, do whatever you can to get the message out. Uh, as you know, a lot of times on social media, I am either shadow banned. Or completely banned like TikTok. Uh, so there's only a few ways that I can get the message out, and that's through you guys sharing my stuff with people that you know and love. All right. So without further ado, today's deep dive on the Adams archive is on Vivek Ramas Swami, the Adams Archive. All right. In another win for freedom, a school has reinstated the 12 year old in Colorado who is kicked out of class for sporting the Don't Tread on me flag. Otherwise known as the Gadsden flag. I didn't actually know the name of that until now when this happened. I guess I should have. Uh, but I always just correlated this with the Marine Corps for some reason. I know that's a very, uh, consistent flag flown for the Marines. However, learning the history of this, I am a big fan of the history of this flag. So it actually dates back to the Revolutionary War, and it was something that was, came up with, and maybe we can go into the history of this just a little bit, um, but it has its place in history, right? It, it, it basically was a, a show of power against the British clergy to show that we will not stand idly while you strip us of our freedoms. That's the history. That's it. Revolutionary war. There's nothing other than that about it. Okay. Now there was a teacher who took that flag and decided that it was now going to be racist and went as far as to having a parent teacher meeting about it, and then even had somebody from her district back her up. So let's go ahead and watch this video. And again, you can always see it right here with me on the YouTube. All right, so here we go. Oh, okay. Hold on. Thank you.  Do they know what the Gadson flag is? That's a historical flag. So there, um, the reason that they do not want the flag, the reason we do not want the flag slave mm-hmm. Is due to its origins with the re slavery and slave tribe. That is what was, um, as the reasoning behind them. Not like the Gadsden blood, the don't tread on me. Okay. Which is the Gadsden blood. Okay. Um, okay. So he, he um, now this kid has the best smile on his face right now. What's happen if he doesn't take it off? He, I mean, he is able to go, I was actually just telling him like I was upset that he was missing so much school. I'm like, ah. So I asked if, can he just take his stuff out of his bag and go back to class? Like I just want him to go back to class. The bag can't go back. It's got patch on it. 'cause we can't have that in and around other kids. So that's what I was trying And then he said, you were close. So I was like, oh, okay. Yeah. It has nothing to do with slavery. That's like the Revolutionary War patch that was enslaved when they were fighting the British. Like that wasn't, that's the revolution. Maybe you're thinking of like the, um, the Confederate pe arm Confederate flag. Okay. I so. I'm just here to enforce, is there, tell me. No, I am here to enforce the policy that was provided Okay. By the district. Okay. And definitely you have every right to not agree with it. I mean, I, yeah, because the c u says that he's allowed to wear that if you like, go on their website, it's like, says in the big letters. So I all, I, all I'm saying is that unless there's like a ban on patches period, like if you said there's no patches allowed at the school, you cannot display what you think or anything like that or what cheer or anything like that. Um, I, I don't, I think it's like one sided, you know, because you allow some patches, but not other patches. Other kids have patches like other names and like these American flag backpacks. Yeah. That was like flown during the revolution with, um, yeah. I, I just don't wonder stand that at all. So what I can do is, and if you, if you go onto the ACLU's website, Yeah, let's, let's talk to someone speak, because I don't have a lawsuit. I really don't. I can speak, I can have you speak to our Jeff Yoko again. Okay. Um, and then he can refer you to our person at the district. Okay. Um, because like I said, we're following district policy. Okay. Is what we're doing. Okay. So the last thing I want is him out of class. Yeah. I know that. That's all my, the last thing I want takes his classes seriously. He studies, he does. He wants to get straight A's he did that he made honor roll when he was here before. He intends to do that again right now. But it's hard 'cause he keeps missing class for this. So I understand that. Yeah. And I mean, we teach him to always stick up for your beliefs and I mean, you're going over the revolution. This for seventh grade, I mean the founding fathers stood up for what they believed in against unjust laws.  This is unjust. 100%. Get it mama. We are upholding a policy that was provided to us, which we have to avoid. Okay. Can you show me where the policy. I absolutely applaud this mother for everything that she just did there, stood her ground, articulately stated her case, said, I don't understand why you guys would ever think that this is anything to do with slavery. This is a flag that was flown against the British during the Revolutionary War. Now what would happen if he didn't? So she did her research on this. She knew exactly what to say, and, and I applaud her even more so because she's sitting there with another child, like a baby sitting in a car seat in front of her while making this case. Um, and so here's the update on this. Alright, so they eventually, uh, sent a letter. To the district. So it says, meet 12 year old Jayden, who was kicked out of class yesterday in Colorado Springs for having a Gadsden flag patch, which the school claims has origins with slavery. The school's director via email, uh, said that the patch was disruptive to the classroom environment. Now, the receipts from this with the Jeff Yokum that was, uh, told in reference to this mother was about, uh, dress code. Now, this actually happened yesterday and this email back and forth from the Vanguard School District. The, uh, individuals is Jeff Do Yokum, Y O U, or Y O C U m@thevanguardschool.com said, Mrs. Rodriguez, I, as I discussed, I'm providing you the rationale for determining the Gadsden flag is considered an unacceptable symbol, first case when E E O C required the complaint to be reviewed. This was the Washington Post. Saying Wear don't wearing, don't tread on me. Insignia. Could be punishable. Racial harassment then posts the tied to the Confederate flag and other white supremacist groups, including Patriot groups. Huh? Patriot groups. How dare you. Uh, then there's additional photos. Let's see if we can get the bottom of this. No. Okay. So then basically what ended up happening with this, the, what they ended up citing on this was somebody who is a graphic design scholar from the conversation.com. Hmm. So it also says that rattlesnake imagery in the United States, or the American Revolution was hosted and fueled by Ben Franklin's papers and interest in Massachusetts and Pennsylvania. Franklin spent the latter part of his life petitioning Congress to free South slaves. But assistant Dean equity doesn't. Know that hmm many anx were quick to side with Jaden and his mother pointing out that the rattlesnake imagery of the gadson flag was inspired by Benjamin Franklin, who spent the latter part of his life petitioning Congress to free the South's slaves, the Epper Minutemen, who had also used the symbol Incorporated eight 14 black and native men in black flag bearer, a greater diversity than many other regimens, according to Tony Cannet, an investigative colonist of the Daily Signal. Uh, so the result of this was that the district reached out and had a message because this spread like wildfire. And it said yesterday, the student was returned. The student returned with the patch still visible on his backpack. Following the district's direction, Vanguard administration or administrators pulled the student aside so that they could speak with his parents in the district. Upon learning that they have these events to the today, the Vanguard School Board of Directors called an Emergency Meeting From Vanguard's founding, we have proudly supported our constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the ordered liberty that all Americans have enjoyed for almost 250 years. The Vanguard School recognizes the historical significant of the Gadsden flag in its place in history. This is incident is an occasion for us to reaffirm our deep commitment to a classical education in support of these American principals. At this time, the Vanguard School Board and the district have informed the student's family that he may attend school with the Gadsden flag patch visible on his pack, on his backpack. Sincerely, the va Vanguard School Board of Directors of. Good. Good. Finally, some decency and some, you know, reasonable conversations being happening now. There was actually a picture that came out of this child with his backpack standing in front of a teacher's car, which said, make America Green again. So the teachers were allowed to post these things on their vehicles and drive around with them, but a student can't wear this on his backpack. Very, very interesting. So chalk it up for another win for freedom, as I said earlier. Right. We've seen it with Target, we've seen it with, uh, all Bud Light. We've saw it with all of the things that we've seen pop up recently. All of the, the music that is topping the charts, the Richmond, north of Richmond, um, all of it has, has culminated to show that there is power in numbers. There is power in speaking out. I saw this. I saw this graphic the other day that showed a, like what looked like a, a authoritarian Egyptian slave bearer with a whip whipping a group of people. It was like a row of people. And then the next column was one person of that group standing up and the slave bear still, or owner, still whipping that person. And then the next group of people behind that, one person starts to stand up. There's a group of them now, and then the slave bear, the slave owner whips them again, and then everybody stands up and the the slave owner runs. And this is such a good graphic, such a good. Picture of what it means to go through what we all went through in the last three, four years, where we went from, nobody's standing up against this, nobody's speaking out against it, nobody. It wasn't cool to be, you know, talking out against C O V I and you know, it wasn't, it wasn't cool. We were getting banned and shadow banned and getting our accounts ripped away from us not led into airports and, and not allowed to get a job and or keep your job even if you had one already. We saw so many instances where nobody was standing up. There was very few of us, and that was the very precipice of when I started this podcast was because I saw that there was so few people standing up during this crazy time while the curtains were being pulled back of authoritarianism. Once we were learning what was really going on in these institutions, So little people were standing up, but now we're seeing there's a massive group standing up against these things. Standing up for freedom, standing up for liberty, standing up for the rights of our children and their schools to display their support for our constitution and what it stands for. So really happy to see this once again, another win. Alright, so with that, let's dive into our conversation about Vivek Ramis Swami. Now, I have been for a very long time, months now since he announced his candidacy almost, it seems like been saying how interested I was in Vivec as a candidate and there was really one thing for me. There was one thing for me about Vivec. Made me really question him. That has kind of made a little, it was the thread on the sweatshirt that started to unravel it for me. And again, I'm not coming to any conclusions on this yet. Uh, I still don't know how I feel about it fully, but I just wanna show you what, to me, has been the red flags. And maybe you've seen some of them, and maybe you haven't. And maybe because I mentioned him, you started to pay attention to him and support him. So, I, I just wanna be transparent here, guys. I don't know how to feel about Vivek. There's been several red flags, far more red flags than I would like to see about a candidate at this stage of the race. The biggest red flag for me of Vivek was his Obama opener at the debate stage. Now you must be wondering, who's this skinny guy with a funny last name doing, standing on a presidential debate stage? That, to me, started it all. I. And here it's, so first, lemme just address a question that is on everybody's mind at home tonight. Who the heck is this skinny guy with a funny last name? And what the heck is he doing in the middle of this debate stage, the hope of a mill worker's son who dares to defy the odds, the hope of a skinny kid with a funny name, who believes that America has a place for him too. So first, lemme just address a question that is on everybody's mind at home tonight. Who the heck is this skinny guy with a funny last name? And what the heck is he doing in the middle of this debate stage? The hope of a mill worker's son now dares to defy the odds there is the, there is the back to back between those sounds. Pretty familiar, huh? For a Republican candidate to verbatim, verbatim, Rip off. Barack Obama's just, this was one of the most famous statements in presidential history, right? That there's a reason that this was immediately followed up by, uh, Chris Christie on stage with him calling him out for it was because everybody knows this statement. This was a statement that everybody went wild for. Who is this skinny guy with a funny last name and what is he doing on this debate stage? I don't think anybody was asking that about Vivek. I think he was a little out of touch. And then to actually re I, I don't know if this was supposed to be a quirky, funny nod to that statement. Maybe that's the case. Maybe we can, we can attribute naivety or, uh, comedy where malice is being attributed instead. But it doesn't seem like, like that was the case here. To me, it seemed like he was legitimately using this as his opening as on, on the biggest floor that he's had so far next to podcasts, which is crazy that, you know, there's some podcasts that are far bigger than this debate stage. Uh, but that's how you open the debate for the Republican party. Now, I could see if he was a Democrat doing that, I could see him pulling that quote, but just to, to, there, there was no, the, the follow up to this was not, I bet you've heard somebody say that before, but I'm different and here's why. Now, Viva Ram Swami is more articulate than Barack Obama was, I think more presidential than Barack Obama. Was, which says a lot. Barack Obama was a great president in the way that he presented himself and presented our nation. Now you wanna get into policies and it completely unravels. But the ability that he had to speak on a stage to massive amounts of people, the, uh, intellectualism that he conveyed when he talked about certain topics was, was impressive. And that you can say the same for Vivek. And what we came to find out about Barack Obama was that he wasn't as genuine as he tried to appear to be. It was all an act. And I'm afraid that maybe just, maybe that's what Vivek is doing too. Now, I'm gonna be honest with you here, and you might, you might laugh at this, you might roll your eyes at it, but I was watching the debate. And I may or may not have had some t h c enter my system here. And I totally, in that moment, being a little bit high, watching the debates, uh, drinking a, drinking a beer. Um, I s I just felt it, the Vivek felt like a a, you know what it looks like to me for Vivek Ram Swami is that the big leagues, the BlackRocks, the Vanguards, the World Economic Forums said, wake the beast. We got 'em. Guys call in our ace of spades and Vivek just rises from like a cryo chamber and the water just drains out of his plastic, uh, surrounding his, his glass, that, uh, box that he's standing in. And, and he. Takes his first step out of the glass box into the real world to take over the next presidential race, right? It just seems all too good. He seems too good, he's too polished, he's too clean. Everything, everything he's saying is, is right spot on with how they know the disenfranchised feel on one side, everything that he's saying, his presentation is perfect. His teeth are white as can be. His smile is practiced to a t. It's all a little too perfect for me. It's not, it doesn't come off as authentic. And, and maybe I was just a little bit high, maybe that that just unraveled it for me, but it just seems a little unauthentic to me. It seems like a play. And obviously everybody on that debate stage is playing games and all of them are wearing a mask and he's just way out of everybody else's league on that stage. And guess what, Vivek, I would love to have a conversation with you and would love for you to convince me that you are not the second coming of Barack Obama drained from your cryo chamber by World Economic forum elites to come and take over the presidential race once they take down Donald Trump and be another puppet installed into our governmental system. I would love that. Come on, come on the show. We'll have a conversation. I'll even have a drink with you. And, and I would love to have that conversation with you. You're very articulate. I think, again, he's probably the most presidential candidate that I've ever seen, you know, next to John f Kennedy's speech patterns. There's nobody greater in history that I, that I've seen than the way that Vivek, uh, presents himself in, in the, the, the, the canned ness of his speeches, though the, the smiles on his face that are so practiced that articulateness, if that's a word, the, the, the way that he, how good, how clean, how perfect every response is, is just a little too on point for me. And there's a little bit, there's just a, and maybe I just don't know the guy, and maybe he's like that all the time, but he's just so, it's so salesy. Not a salesy in a bad way, but a great salesman, great salesman. And those are the most dangerous 'cause they'll talk you into anything, trust me. Um, so that, that's where this all started. To me, the Obama statement just irked me. And then it was just the way that he was just da da da. Like he knew every single question that they were gonna ask. He had the perfect response, every part of it. He's almost like a robot. And Chris Christie alluded to that. He said, uh, what did he say? Let me, let me pull up the Chris Christie, uh, response because it was just, it was just so spot on. Uh, let me go to the YouTubes here and I can show you. It actually follows up, uh, in, in retorts, vivex statement there. Uh, Christie, G P t I. It was just the, such a good retort. Here we go. I've had enough already tonight of a guy who sounds like chat, G P T standing up here, and the last person in one of these debates, Brett, who stood in the middle of the stage and said, what's a skinny guy with an odd last name doing up here was Barack Obama. And I'm afraid we're dealing with the same type of amateur standing in stage tonight. Who the heck is this skinny guy with a funny last name, and what the heck is he doing in the middle of this debate stage? The hope of a skinny kid with a funny name, who believes that America has a place for him too. I've had it. I'm just telling you, there's something about him, something about him that I just can't, I can't, there's a red flag and I can't get around it. And there's other red flags too. So let's dive in to those. So here is where, uh, there's, there's some other influencers calling this out, right? And we'll get to those in a second. Um, but let's, let's just start from the top here. Okay. Now let's vet Vive. I like that. Let's vet Vivek. Let's see if these red flags have it even merit to them. All right. So Ramas Swami was indeed nominated the sadness comes from dossier.today. Ramas Swami was indeed nominated and selected as a World Economic Forum, young global leader. In 2021, which is an obvious massive red flag. However, Ramis Swami claims an alibi explaining on his social media. Funny, you should bring this up because this all started with a tweet from Jack Poso who said, how strange. When you look at the World Economic Forum, young Global Leaders of 2021 page. Today, it appears a name has been scrubbed from the list. It'd be a shame if somebody had receipts of the original list, in which case Poso posts them. Now, Vivek retorts this and says, funny, you should bring this up. Vivek says, the first chapter of my upcoming book in April has the receipts of my exchanges with the World Economic Forum. Years ago when they repeatedly kept trying to get me to be named, I gave them a polite hell no reveals the games that the World Economic Forum plays. Now let's go to this tweet and actually read, said receipts. Uh, so there's actually the, the, uh, screenshots from the World Economic Forum. It says, meet the 2021 class of young global leaders under that, right under, uh, Terrance Kamal Vasu Vats. Achmad Zaki. Aditi Avanan is Vivek Ramas Swami. Hmm. Very interesting. And then the next day on the website, his name is Gone. Now, Vivek has come out and personally said that, yes, I had to sue them for them to take me off of their website. Now here's the better question. Why would they elect him in this way? Why would, why would that be on their website? Now, I'm not getting elected to be a World Economic Forum, young, global leader, I promise you that. But Vivek is, Vivek is clearly stated on their website until he says that, you know, nobody has been working to dismantle the Global World Economic Forum takeover more than me. You're right over the target. Stay on it. I'll send you a signal or signed book so you can learn more about it. It's worse than you can ever imagine. Jack responded and said, you've sent me like five books already, my dude, and interesting. So, What he has yet to explain is his longtime association with Soros Inc. Now, if Vivek is associated with the World Economic Forum as a global leader and he's been taking money from George Soros, maybe those are a couple red flags we should be at paying attention to. Maybe a G O P Presidential candidate is a literal Soros fellow directly on the Soros website. Right now it lists Vivek Ram Swami 2011, founder and c e O of Roy Van Sciences. Vivek is the child of immigrants from India. Fellowship awarded to support work towards a Juris doctorate in law at Yale University. Vivek Ramma Swami is the founder and c e o of Roy Van Sciences. Vivek was born in, uh, Cincinnati, the Indian parents in high school. He was a class fellow Victorian, a nationally ranked junior tennis player and accomplished pianist. Vivek graduated from Harvard College in 2007, Summa cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa with a major in biology. Later he entered Yale Law School well at Harder. Harvard, a preis of his senior thesis on the ethical questions raised by creating human animal kymera. Hmm. Was published in the Boston Globe in the New York Times. He was chairman of the Harvard Political Union and served as one of three undergraduates chosen for an advisory board for the selection of the current president of Harvard. I. Hmm. During his senior year, Vivek co-founded student businesses.com, a technology startup company, which connected entrepreneurs with the professional LI resources via the internet. And he led the company to its acquisition in 2009, after Harvard College, Vivek worked for three years in life sciences, investing in New York before pursuing his law degree. That's interesting. I didn't see that. Ethical questions raised by creating human animal chimes. That's an interesting topic. Alright. I could get behind 2007 Harvard Vivek writing that. So maybe that's a, a green check mark instead of a red flag for a second. Very interesting. Now another thing here, right on Vivex. soros.org website says, Paul and Daisy Soros fellow Vivek Ramma Swami's Rovan Sciences develops clinical stage antibody to prevent and treat acute respiratory distress syndrome in patients with C Ovid 19. So Vivek profited during COVID through creating these clinical stage antibodies. Another one is pursuing the potential of abandoned pharmaceuticals, and the other one is Havara. Swami's RO sciences stays innovative. So there's the articles from soros.com. He also showed support for George Soros in a recent, well, let's see if it's recent, a tweet from 2021. Pretty recent he said, well said, George Soros said, Vivek Rams Swami, I consider Mr. Z the most dangerous enemy of open societies in the world. Well said Mr. Soros. Hmm. For reasons unknown. Ramas Swami's Wikipedia page has recently updated that deleted information about his religion and his association with Soros Inc. Now, if you don't know, Ramas Swami is a Hindu, was raised Hindu by his family, which no surprise, he's from Indian immigrants. Um, so I'm not sure why they would remove that. Who cares? It says writing on the Wall Street Journal. In 2020, Ramas Swami unveiled his opening salvo against the World Economic Forum in BlackRock stakeholder capitalism model. However, later in the piece he confusingly declared, I would love to have BlackRock as a shareholder if my company ever goes public, said Vivek. Now on China, Ramas Swami is known for his recent tough talk on China. On Tucker Carlson's show. Ramas Swami said that as president, he would have America reorient all of its supply chains away from China. Okay, I can get down with that. Vivek. However, Ramis Swami was a featured speaker at a Shanghai Investment Conference in 2018. Moreover, he has launched companies outta China and formed partnerships with Chinese firms in one such deal. Ramas Swami's Roivant partnered with the Civic Group, a state owned investment company of a Chinese government to launch an outfit called NT Sciences. And here's the article to back that up, which says Viva Ramma Swami Strikes again. This time launching a Beijing based biotech player with a pipeline. This morning, Rove unveiled NTT along with cpi, a Chinese private equity group. Now, this is where this gets a little important when we get to some of the videos that I'm gonna show you from other people who are talking about this, um, because this is where kind of the shift of money and the, the shift of patents come from, uh, a little bit later. So pay attention to that name SYN event as recently as 2020 2nd of February, February, 2022. Ram Swami's Roy event listed subsidiary companies in China, according to SS e c filings, which are the subsidiaries being site event biotechnology CO. In China site event sciences CO in China, Cynt Sciences Limited in Hong Kong Covid 19 in the mRNA gene, the biotech entrepreneur has repeatedly tried to find a niche in the game or in the gene therapy business, and therefore he unsurprisingly, A big proponent of mRNA shots. In January of 2022, Vivek wrote an article in the Wall Street Journal declaring that social distancing and cloth masks would work to stop viruses, but that it needed to stop so that people can avoid antigenic drift. He added the most important step in fighting the C Ovid 19 pandemic was the distribution of vaccines. But new variants aren't emerging in the US said Vivek. This was January 12th, 2022. But new variants aren't emerging in the us. They're emerging in places with a higher percentage of a vaccinated individuals. Those variants are the ones that have the greatest potential to drift and possibly shift away from the strain that initial vaccines were designed to. And then it goes on to the second tweet. Ramas Swami has extensive business ties to to, to Pfizer. Extensive business ties to Pfizer Rovan, which was founded by Ramas. Swami has partnered with the taxpayer looting pharma cartel boss on several occasions. Tiva, another subsidiary says, download our free ebook. Learn how Pfizer Rovan and m AMB X accelerate their process development strategy hashtag bioprocess. Now this, this is not a subsidiary. The subsidiary within that was Roivant. Um, so correct myself there. Tiva, C Y T I V A now, uh, from Reuters in 2022. December 1st at 11:21 PM posted Rovan Pfizer team up on inflammatory disease drug. Hmm. So Vivera Swami not only said that masks work, not only said that vaccines need to be rolled out as soon as possible. Paraphrasing, but also teamed up with Pfizer in several occasions with his own businesses. A brief search of his social media history found no evidence that Ramas Swami ever critiqued Pfizer. Roy vent has also, which again is not, that's not evidence. If you haven't ever critiqued somebody via your Twitter, doesn't mean it's evidence. Rovan has also sued Moderna claiming patent infringement re related to its disastrous lipid nanoparticle delivery system, which is shown to wreak havoc on the entire human body. So here's, here's the way that I would rank my presidential candies right here is my 2023 presidential candidacy ranking and why, and I think he moves down a step here. Okay? Now, I don't agree with many things, several things about the. Robert Kennedy, Jr. But I do agree with him on his stance on Covid and his stance on vaccines. And I do think that we are going into, which I did a whole breakdown in my last episode on pandemic season two, that we're going into another season where they're going to go after lockdowns. They're going to go after a new wave of authoritarian control. So I also think that of all the presidential candidates right now, Robert Kennedy Jr. Is the most authentic. He's the most genuine. He also has a blood tie to not one, but two people who have been assassinated, allegedly by the ccia A. So there's a very good case here to say that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Has real reason to go after the Deep State, real reason to obliterate three letter agencies into the wind. I. A real reason, a foundationally, deep-seated reason to do so. Now, from what we've seen here, the evidence suggests not the words, don't pay attention to the words, pay attention to the evidence, the actions of Vivek, which shows that he not only teams up with Pfizer, not only that he wants to push vaccines, not only that he wants to push mask mandates, but that he's also associated somehow some way with the World Economic Forum and took money from George Soros. Those things to me, are enough to knock him down several notches, several, several notches, because at this point it's only his words. It's not his actions and his words. You can tell this man is just gifted when it comes to speech. He's a great salesman. He's a great politician in the making, but that's the scary part. Right. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Has no skills whatsoever to convince you with his tonality, to, to take a point and, and paint it with color beautifully so that you can agree with him to, to he, he loses all of that in his cadence of speech. He loses all of it within, within the way that he has. His, his vocal chords are, are damaged, but vek almost essentially his entire campaign is, is surrounded by his ability to sell you to his ability to smile, his ability to quickly and perfectly articulate exactly what you want to hear when you want to hear it. But there's a lot of red flags here. So I would say right now, Robert F. Kennedy Jr's right up there for me. Now I know his stance on gun control. I know his stance on abortion. So those things I vehemently disagree with, with him. And I'd love to see a, a, a breakdown of every one of his beliefs and every one of the policies. And maybe I'm, maybe, you know, I'm pretty far off in, in, in several, several of those. But to me, the president is basically a figurehead who represents the people and is a display of where we're moving. Are we moving more towards the deep state? Are we moving more towards, uh, a nation of authoritarianism or are we moving more towards freedom and liberty? So I would love nothing more than to see a Trump Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Ticket would love nothing more. That would be my ideal candidacy. And I don't know who I would put in which position. Uh, but because you can clearly see that the deep state that the, the individuals in power are, are obviously a. Trying to put Trump in jail over and over and over and over again. There's been a concerted effort by big, big money to get him out. And we can also see clearly the same thing is happening with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Besides the indictments, but nothing is happening with Vivek. In fact, he's finding himself on all of the biggest shows, constantly being put on the BlackRock funded Fox News, and CNN's constantly being pushed in the public narrative, having the biggest clips from the debate stage constantly. So let's, let's keep going. Here it says, Ramis Swami has estimated to have a net worth of an impressive $500 million, though it's unclear how he accumulated these funds, or if that number, which is a bit outdated, currently stands. Perhaps it's from a series of business ventures through which he successfully cashed out, but the trail left behind leaves a lot to be desired. S o Gene Therapies, a company founded by Ramas Swami recently announced plans to dissolve after years of failing to advance any successful drug candidates once valued at billions of dollars. Millions. I o currently has a market cap of around 30 million, as it recently failed to find a buyer for the Troubled Corporation. Just so you know, this stock in 2018 plummeted from $200 a share, and then the same day it was at $200. It dropped down below 50 and then over the next three to four months or so, and over the next year, moved down to less than a dollar. It's currently sitting at 40 cents. Crazy. Roy Van Sciences founded by Ramos Swami. He was also the C e O until 2021, but remained on the board. Lost almost a billion dollars last year and has lost on average 650 million each year since 2019. According to the company's financial statements in 2018, the company has described as akin to a bloodbath efforts prized Alzheimer's drug, which formed the basis for the creation of Rovan failed clinical trials. Over the last quarter, Roivant brought in only 12 million in revenue and had a net income of negative $291 million. Remiss Swami stepped down from the board of Rovan after announcing his presidential run, according to a company statement. Crazy. How do you lead a company that loses almost $300 million? And then. Somehow make 500 million. The, the business world, once you get to that level is just pretty crazy. Ramos Swami's latest adventure is Strive Asset Management, which he founded in 2022 with the mission to combat the e s G agenda in corporate America, strive has set up a series of passively managed ETFs through which Strive takes an above average fee in order to purchase stock and Pro e s G woke companies Hmm. Promising to use customer's proxy voices to convince these corporations to depart from that agenda. Since its founding, strive has published forward letters to select companies asking them to change course. Hmm. So Ramas Swami's latest venture is Strive Management. So he founded a wealth management company, strive in a, in a hope to voice with people's funds. I. The, that we don't want them to be a part of the e s G and woke agendas. Cool. I like that. That's a very smart play. Vivek, especially if you're gonna run for office. But essentially he took in all of this money, right? Looks like many millions of dollars. And they held stock in all of these woke companies. What is that? Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Google, Tesla, Nvidia, alphabet Inc. Or Google again. Um, UnitedHealthcare, Exxon, Johnson and Johnson. Wow. Critics of Ramos Swami have pointed out that Strive is effectively damaging its own mission right off the bat by first purchasing shares and proceeding to add value to these companies. Yeah. And later hoping to convince them by proxy letter or vote to change their behaviors. So what's the real agenda? This says it seems Vivek Ramma Swami knows full well that he will not actually be a serious contender for president. He has already spoken about wanting to merely be able to make the debate stage. His campaign website does not discuss his platform in any detail at all. It only shares clips of his media appearances and is largely nothing more than a donation page. What is Vivek actually running for? First? Maybe we can get some more clarity about who this man is and what he believes. So there's your breakdown, right? We'll watch some videos here. We'll get some other conversations going. But there's the overall breakdown of Vivek Pharma funded by BlackRocks and Vanguards World Economic Forum. Global leader, George Soros funded law degree. That is Vivek. That is his background. Those are, those are his actions that to me speak louder than his silver tongue. Now there's other people raising the flag about this, one of them being Matt Kim. Now, if you don't know Matt Kim, he's got a podcast. He's also a, a pro prominent figure on social media, and he posted this video that I will show you, uh, where he raised similar red flags. So let's pay attention to it, because he allegedly got some messages from Vivex people about his posts. So here it's when he supported Bob, let's restart it for you. Some of you won't like this, but hear me out. He seems to be everywhere. Clips of him giving it to the man and calling out the establishment All over social media skyrockets from unknown to top of the Republican polls, and I understand why. He says what we all want to hear. End the war. Secure the border during the swamp. Unity, freedom, truth, which outlets are considered untrustworthy? Propaganda Media. M S N B C, business Insider, AP Forbes, the New York Times, the New Yorker, Huffington Post, Axios, political, just to name a few, the mouthpiece of the establishment. Then why are they all so supportive of VI? Doesn't make sense. How is he considered anti-establishment when he's supported by the establishment? If you or I were to say some of the anti woke things, he says we would be shadow banned, but somehow he's trending on every single major social media platform. Hmm. Prior to politics, he was a hedge fund manager. His claim to fame was a pharmaceutical startup company called Rovan. In the nine years it's been in business, it has never been profitable or delivered a working product. Now that is where the only part of this that he was corrected with. So we'll look at that statement that he apologizes, um, quite sarcastically, rightfully, uh, about this. So let's watch it. Although RO continues to fail their clinical trials, they were able to find investors and raise money, making VI an extremely wealthy entrepreneur, good at convincing people to invest poor at delivering product and execution. Not a good sign. So what about the money? The media highlights that Vik has invested over $10 million of his own money to fund his campaign, an honorable fee. Vik announced his run for presidency in February, 2023. How long do you think it takes to make that decision and execute a plan? Six, eight months. July, 2022. The value of relevant stock is just over $3 per share. On February 21st, 2023, Vik announces his run for presidency, and on February 22, he sells 4 million shares for approximately $32 million million dollars at nearly $8 per share. Well over $15 million in profit in six months prior to him announcing presidency. Good for him, right? Make that money. Company is losing over $1 billion per year, but he got paid. Smart guy. But anytime things are just so coincidental, I'm forced to keep digging. Why did the stock price of an unprofitable failing company rise over 100%. How does it go from an all time low to nearly? Its all time high. Institutional money. You remember when Vik said the financial investment giants like BlackRock, state Street, and Vanguard represent arguably the most powerful cartel in human history? Well, guess who's on the list of institutional investment giants that started giving his company money one year ago? You wanna guess BlackRock, state Street and Vanguard. All three have added to their positions in the last quarter. And Rian, which Vik still owns 7% share in, is now up over 300% in the last year. Mm-hmm. Making it worth close to $1 billion during the Republican primary debate. Vik vowed to end the teacher's union. Guess who is also on this list of investors? California State Teacher's Retirement System. Look, his intentions may be pure, and this is all a coincidence. Maybe there's a great explanation, however, I am not a financial analyst, nor investigative reporter, but I was able to find all this out in a couple hours of sifting through publicly available data. Why is this connection to George Soros via scholarship and his involvement in the Ohio c Ovid 19 response team scrubbed from Wikipedia in 2021, he was named a young global leader by the World Economic Forum. Two years later, after using that title to raise investments for his company, he sued the W E F to remove his name from the list. Three months after that, he was able to settle with Klaus Schwas, W e f, and receive a formal letter of apology. How do you sue what many may consider evil, the World Economic Forum and win and get an apology letter in three months? He's either that good or I don't know. Any real journalist or news outlet could have easily found out all this info, but they didn't. Real question is why. Hmm. So there's the first video, right? That's one of the main reasons. Almost all of that is so suspect every single part of this journey for Vivek, everything but his words. If you didn't watch a single debate, if you didn't watch a single video of Vivek and you only looked at his actions, it paints a completely different story. If I told you there was a presidential candidate for the Republican party who was funded by George Soros, who is a World Economic Forum global leader, who went to Harvard Law School, founded a pharmaceutical company, which helped with C O V I D responses and was funded by BlackRock and Vanguard, would you vote for that person? Would that person be your number one pick? And again, I just wanna drive this point home for you. If you looked at nothing, Vivek said, if you watched none of his videos, none of the debates, and you only saw that he was a World economic forum, global leader up until the time that he decided to run, he was funded with all of his companies by BlackRock and Vanguard. He made his money in pharmaceutical companies during C O V I D. Is that the guy that you want running this country? Because I don't, that's not what I want. That's not who I want running the country. You know who I want running the country. The guy who says that you shouldn't get the vaccine, the guy who says that all of these institutions are corrupt and wants to obliterate the cia. Actually will do it if he finds office. You know why? Because two of his family members were assassinated by them. Or maybe the guy who's sitting and just got his mugshot taken three days ago from actually fighting the system, not just saying words on the debate stage. And you know, looking at, looking at you at the audience and nodding his head. And then as soon as BlackRock, Vanguard and World Economic Forum, look at him, they go, and then you look at him, right? Does that meme? But that, that's what you have to look at. What are the actions of the individual? Not just the words, because the words literally mean nothing on the debate stage. Here's the second video. Here's a second video about Vivic. I promise I need to move on to other pending social coincidences. I was wrong and I'll admit it. I said V's. Company. Rovin had no successful product, but I was mistaken. Kind of Rovin had a subsidiary called Myov Event that developed drugs with Pfizer. Myov is no longer a part of Rove's products because it was sold to Sumit, which Rovin also owned, which is sold to Sumitomo Pharma Japan, where the executives of Sumit Tovan hold bore seats. Two successful drugs are. Orvi, which is f d a, approved to treat advanced prostate cancer and mefe, which is f d a, approved to treat endometriosis severe period pain. What do the drugs actually do? Morgo. VX is a drug designed to lower your testosterone in mefe is the same drug but with estrogen mixed in. So I apologize to Vivek's campaign team. I was wrong. But please understand that since the drugs were within subsidiaries of subsidiaries, it was not easy to find. So I will formulate correct myself. Vikk has successfully manufactured with Pfizer, an estrogen filled testosterone suppressor. Hope that clears the air. What a great way to respond to that because I'm, I believe he said that, uh, he was asked, uh, for this correction by Vivex team. Uh, so masterfully done. Uh, just so you know, um, Matt Kim's Instagram account is Matt Attack 0 0 9, and he does some great work, uh, very, uh, concise and, uh, very, uh, un un, um, what's the word? Unex Explosive. Unostentatious. Unostentatious. I add a lot of color to our show folks. Um, so just like you heard him talking there, I guess is how he talks most of the time in almost every video. So there's very little color in his voice, but he does it very well and very tactfully, very dry, uh, just like he did there. So great stuff, Matt. You're doing a great job. Um, So found that to be interesting. Right? So here's uh, some other clips. Now I actually just have his Twitter account pulled up here. 'cause I think, you know, one thing we can do is just scroll the, the times of, uh, Vivex most recent posts here. Uh, but let's go the 20%. Let's go to some, let's go to some more, uh, organized stuff here. So here is Vivek Ramas Swami. Now you might ask what, what website is this? Austin. What website am I looking at with Vivek's name on it? Well, I'm glad you asked. That website is right here, which says Paul and Daisy's Soros Fellowships for New Americans. Hmm. So Vivek Swami was funded by the Soros family to attend Yale to get his Juris doctorate. Just 10 years ago. So he was what, 27 at the time? Now that's an interesting choice to move from biology to law and then not use your law degree at all. But he was a Forbes 30 under 30 honoree founder of Rovan Sciences, and we looked at that already, but I just think it's interesting to, to find his name right next to the Soros name. Now, the next thing we have here is, I'm not gonna go into that, um, is that Vivex. Ramis Swami paid Wikipedia editors to erase his Soros fellowship and his work on C O V I D. Now, this came from May. Of 2023. It's now August, June, July, August, three months Now it says he announced his 2024 presidential bid after making sure his Wikipedia page was edited. Vivek Rams Swami, this comes from new republic.com. Never heard of it. Uh, is like much of the Republican party, so pathetically desperate. This says, Ooh, the 2024 candidate who joins other elite educated Republicans in cosplaying is a truth telling populace, while offering no actual solutions to improve people's material conditions, has reportedly used some of his millions of dollars to pay a Wikipedia editor to scrub his past Mediate reports that Ramas Swami seems to have paid Wikipedia outta their Yerman to remove information from his page that he presumably thought would damage his candidacy in the Republican party. A few days later, he announced his 2024 bid. The editor scrubbed off information related to Ramos Swami receiving Paul and Daisy Soros Fellowship from New Americans in 2011 during his time as a Yale law student. Paul Soros is the older brother of billionaire Democratic donor, George Soros, who has been the subject of perennial anti-Semitic conspiracy theories Pedaled by the right. The Fellowship Ramis Swami received is dedicated to helping immigrants and children of immigrants pursue graduate degrees. Prominent right-wing figures like Jack Poso have directed attention toward Ramis Swami's past fellowship, presumably in line with the aforementioned use of Soros as a catchall for anything suspicious. Also removed from Ramis Swami's page was his work serving in the Ohio's c Ovid 19 response team. The editor claimed that Ramis Swami had explicitly asked to remove the mention of his work on the Covid team while the editor himself deemed the fellowship to be extraneous material. After some back and forth with other Wikipedia contributors information, noting Ramis Swami Soros fellowship was later added back to the page. Ramis Swami announced his bid for presidency less than two weeks after he seemingly commissioned an editor to modify his Wikipedia page. So let's repeat that 'cause that is worth it. Ramis Swami announced his pre his bid for presidency just two weeks after he paid an editor to modify his Wikipedia page. To this day, Ramas Swami's Wikipedia page begins with a disclaimer that the article has multiple issues and the neutrality of this article is disputed. This article contains paid contributions. It may require cleanup to comply with Wikipedia's content. Policy is particularly neutral point of view. Wikipedia warrants the episode is just another and a long series of Republicans Spinelessly refusing lead to stand by their past when facing Donald Trump, or to offer even a nugget of an argument as to why, Hey, maybe it's okay to care about problems like Covid. So this is a left wing company calling this out most remarkably is that any of the Republicans think their hungry embrace of conservatism. It's furthest right instincts will result in anything other than failure. Alright? So, so I would say too, I'm actually quite, I'm actually quite, uh, proud of our party. I'm, you know, and, and I say our party, I don't generally traditionally identify as strict conservative. I'm far more, I would say libertarian than I am conservative in many aspects. I believe our government should be basically utilized for a military to protect our borders and protect us against foreign enemies. Not to, you know, go to war with other countries and start proxy wars for billions of dollars. I also believe that we should have a police force which is used to, uh, enact law and order, um, under very limited circumstances. Uh, basically off of the golden rule, which is like if, hey, if you don't want that to happen to you, maybe you shouldn't do it to other people. And if you do it to other people, maybe there should be consequences if we all agree that this thing shouldn't happen. Uh, maybe some, some actually no. I wouldn't even say education systems. I think education systems in the modern day would do fairly well if it was a, a more capitalistic, uh, free, um, free market. Uh, there's very limited use cases for the government, um, very limited use cases, and it's literally just a pile of money for them to, uh, to extort you out of with the threat of violence and captivity. In order for them to be able to find how much money and to move out of that pile into their own pockets, through these little games of money laundering, that's about 86% of government spending to me. Right. You wanna talk about, um, social services? I, I think there should be some social services to be able to help people who are, uh, mentally disabled, who are physically disabled, who, uh, really need the help. Um, I, I, I don't see much other uses for the government other than those things. So traditionally probably not as Republican as many people who, uh, listen or who, uh, follow me or, you know, but that's where I'm at. That's what I think. I, I don't think the government's great at literally almost anything. I think the government's quite bad at almost everything. Um, I'll, I'll give you a story. Uh, when I was in the military, uh, I was at, uh, Biloxi, uh, Mississippi. Uh, I was going to tech school for air traffic control training. And uh, I was in the military from 18 to 22. And when I was at Air Traffic Control Tech School in Biloxi, Mississippi, we had a bowling alley. And at this bowling alley we would go there, you know, friends who would drink there and they'd get big pictures of beer and um, and it was like the shittiest bowling alley you had ever been to. And about maybe four months into my tech school, I was, I was at, at Keesler Air Force Base for eight or nine months, um, doing air traffic school. And maybe eight or nine months, three months after we got there, four months after we got there, the bowling alley closed down. The government had a monopoly on entertainment on base and could not run a business properly in order to be profitable enough, even with tax funding. It's like the most ridiculous circus show of a business being ran ever. Uh, it's unbelievably bad at literally everything it does ever. Right. The government is just horrific at every endeavor it sets out to do. There's so much red tape, there's so much bureaucracy. All the technology's super old. There's no innovation, there's, there's nothing happening from the traditional taxation based government services that is positive for the, for the people. Like maybe you can say firefighters. Police in very limited cases, I think I, I legitimately don't think there should be any traffic enforcement. Um, there's very few use cases besides violence and, um, mostly violence. Like there, there's just, there's so many things that are off about, you know, the government having its own, uh, imperialist army. So those are some of my beliefs on that. But, but so, so that's, when you hear me talk about Robert F. Kennedy Jr. I'm not like, I, I am not a hard right or a hard left. I am like somewhere in the middle with mostly a belief that our government sucks at everything it does. And the less that we can have the government do, and the more that we can have the free market do, the better off we will all be. And when I say free market, it's not like the modern day free market that we have right now, because what we have right now is a, a monopolistic oligarchy of, of capitalistic institutions who own everything, right? We talk about the Black Rocks and the Vanguards. I. Uh, uh, we don't live in a capitalist society anymore. Capitalism is dead. We live in an oligarchy. Every institution that you know, is owned by a single one, two, maybe three investment wealth companies, every politician, you know, is owned by 1, 2, 3 of those same wealth management companies. Every politician, you know, every company that you know is owned by BlackRock and Vanguard. We do not live in a capitalistic society. We live in a oligarchy a we live in a, uh, a, um, a, a monopolistic based oligarchy where all of the politicians are bought and paid for, where all of the companies are bought and paid for, and they enact the policies through the politicians that they fund, through the corporations, that it's this big shit show mess, and we're just the ones at the bottom of it getting shit on. This is just how this whole thing plays out to me. Our entire system is just flawed to, its very core as of maybe the last 80 to a hundred years, 80 to a hundred years. The Industrial Revolution, world War II was all the, the shifting of power to these elite class, uh, the, the Berg Group, the World Economic Forums, the, the BlackRocks, the Vanguards, right? You guys, if you've been listening to me long enough, you know my beliefs on these things. You hear me talk about one-off topics, but you don't really hear me talk about the systemic governmental issues that I really, you know, what I truly believe about our government, mostly just that they suck at everything. It's a proxy for politicians and corporations to siphon off government or to siphon off tax dollars. Right. Taxes weren't even implemented until like two thou 1913, right? Something like that. Like 110 years. Uh, when, when federal income tax was, was started and federal income tax was started basically just to fund, uh, you know, it was like two per, they, they were gonna, they were gonna charge, uh, people who were extremely wealthy, like two to 3% of their income just to fund some certain small services. Right? Like, we left Great Britain because they were taxing us on fucking tea. Right. We were throwing barrels. Right. The, the Sons of Liberty and John Adams and or Sam Adams and, and the Sons of Liberty were just going off having secret meetings and cool bars or pubs like the, the Green Dragon. And they were having these underground meetings with, um, you know, the Freemasons and like, how are they gonna, you know, there was all this crazy shit happening. And a lot of it, the, all of the fed up. Thoughts about the, the British clergy? Were based on the, the, the people not wanting the government to take their money from them. Don't. Maybe we should have you for a couple things, and maybe it's, don't invade my country, don't, don't, uh, kill me, don't take my shit from my house. Right? Like, these, these are the things that the government should truly be focused on. But instead they're writing you traffic tickets via autonomous cameras for profit, and they're telling you that you have to get a mRNA gene therapy in order to get a job. Like we're so far off and it's just gonna get worse and worse and worse and worse unless we, we start to win this, this culture war even more than we are today. So anyways, long tangent. Next thing that says here is, um, uh, most remarkable, uh, is, uh, okay. Yeah, that's a stupid article coming from a left wing, but not wrong in like the first half of this. Um, so originally I looked up this article, uh, about who are the famous alumni of Yale's, uh, Phi Beta Kappa Phi, beta Kappa being the, uh, the, um, the fraternity that Vivek was a part of. And, um, I was looking at Yale and, uh, I, I was looking wrongfully at Yale, so he was a part of Phi Beta Kappa at Harvard. So let's see if we can get the celebrity names of people who were a part of Phi Beta Kappa at Harvard, because I misread that. Uh, and let's see, Harvard alumni. It's so crazy to me that people like go to Harvard, right? Like that there's just like this, this completely, this university that's just like completely made up of elite families who just put a hyper emphasis on their children for academics who fund it with $120,000 or whatever the fuck it is to get your kid to go to Harvard. And then, you know, all the scandals with like telling your, saying your kid was a bad gammon defenseman in order to get them into the university. Right. If you ever saw that documentary, I forget the name of it, but it was about the scandal at, uh, all of the elite universities where, um, it might've been a singular one where they were like basically saying that these kids were, uh, In sports that they weren't because they were paying off the, the admissions individual to get them in, uh, to the university on scholarship and stuff, like pretty crazy stuff. Um, so let's see if we can find the Phi Beta Kappa Harvard alumni. Go directly to the website, harvard.edu five. The Kappa of Massachusetts at Harvard is established under a charter dated December 4th, 19 or 17, sorry, 1779. Wow. The charter was granted along with one for Yale by the original society. Founded three years earlier, the College of William and Mary in Virginia. The charter was brought from there to Harvard by Alicia Parelli, who initiated four juniors of the day before commencement in 19. In 17. Wow. 19, uh, 1781. The first meeting of the new chapter was held in September 8th, 1781. That makes Harvard's chapter the oldest and continuous existence. Interesting. Let's see. Members, literary exercises, eligibility, and election members. Let's see if we can get some famous members. Class of 2020. Class of 2024. Let's just read the names of these people. Samar Bajaj, Suha Bot Rah, Bahari, Alexander Chen. Rah. Hari Ganesh. Jay Gar. Amen Haw. Kaylee Ek. Hari Iyer. James Jolan. Ja. Ana, Madeline Kitsch. Jeffrey Kwan, Clarence Naba. Will Nichols, that's the only white guy. Uh, Mitchell Minchi Park. Uh, Joel Sdo. Atlas Sgo. Trey Sullivan. Lucy two. Eleanor Wickstrom, Dora Woodruff. Vicki, you and Eric Zoo. No white people. Maybe one. Let's look at previous years. Uh, 1980s. 1990s. Let's look. What year did he graduate? I think he said 2007. He was a graduate. So let's look at 2007 and see who he was a part of this with. Maybe there's any names that pop out to us here, so we see, see if we can even find Vivek Bally. Aaron. Vadim. Alinsky. I'll save you the names here. Let's see if we can find anybody that sticks out to us that he was a part of this. With Mary, Brad, Eric, Brian, lots of more white people back in 2007. I don't exactly see Vivek, but there's so many people on this list. Let's see, is this, uh, okay alphabetical. So Ramis Swami, there he is. Okay. The Vek Ram Swami 2007. It's a pretty long list, so I'm not sure I know any more of these people just by looking at it without doing research. Peter b Zuckerman, interesting. Maybe that's a good deep dive we could do is like, who did he actually go to? These, who is he here with? Um, but anyways, I. Digress. Um, maybe we can look at the 1980s, but that would be the thing, right? Like maybe look back at like, who are the alumni at this be? Because the other one, when I was looking at Ya

Show notes and Transcript... Dr Sebastian Gorka joins Hearts of Oak to discuss the latest bout of Trump Derangement Syndrome.  Dr Gorka is a unique figure in the US media and political scene as he is originally a Londoner with Hungarian background which gives him a deep understanding of European culture and politics.  And as someone who served in the Trump White House he has seen many attacks from the left and from The GOP on DJT.  The most recent indictment (No 3) is just the latest attack from the establishment who fear President Trump more than anyone else. There is no end to their hate and fear of MAGA.  Dr Gorka also discusses election integrity and the lack of action to protect this process before moving onto the latest sorry saga in the Hunter soap opera (an appointed special counsel) and we finish up by looking at Dr Gorka's 2016 book "Defeating Jihad: The Winnable War" and why this topic is no longer part of the conversation. Dr. Sebastian Gorka was named as the newest Talk Show Host on the Salem Radio Network Platform, and began his show AMERICA FIRST on New Years Day, 2019. His ascent to this role could not have been more unusual, or more of a true “American Story.” To find out how it began, you have to go back to the 1950s, to Communist controlled Hungary. Hoping for freedom after the utter devastation of the Second War, the proud nation of Hungary was instead taken over by a Stalinist dictatorship subordinate to Moscow. One young man, who had suffered under the Nazis, decided to resist and so Paul Gorka created a secret Christian student organization to subvert the Communist stranglehold of his homeland. Paul was eventually betrayed by the British double-agent Kim Philby, arrested by the Secret Police, tortured and then given a life sentence for fighting for democracy and liberty. After two years in solitary confinement, two years down a prison coal mine, and two years in the central political prison in Budapest, Paul was eventually liberated by the brave freedom fighters of the Hungarian Revolution of 1956. With the 17-year old daughter of a fellow political prisoner, Paul escaped across the minefields along the border of Western Hungary to a life of liberty in the UK, where Paul and Susan would be married and their son, Sebastian, was born. With parents who had lived as children under fascism and then escaped Communist Hungary, Sebastian was raised to love freedom. And his love of talk-radio developed early. As a child he would listen late into the night to the shows of the London Broadcasting Company with a small transistor radio under his pillow. It was with this special family background, and growing up under the influence of the Conservative warrior Margaret Thatcher, that Sebastian learned how to fight totalitarian ideologies, be they Fascism, Communism, or Global Jihadism. He would end up serving in the British Army reserve in a Military Intelligence unit, then after the fall of the Berlin Wall, in the first freely-elected Conservative administration in Hungary. The after the 9/11 attacks he became a professor on a Pentagon-funded counter-terrorism program run out of Germany. In 2008 he moved to America with his family where he continued to work for the Defense Department and become a proud American citizen in 2012. He obtained his doctorate in Political Science from Corvinus University in Budapest and was a fellow at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government. In Washington, he served as Associate Dean for Congressional Affairs and Relations to the Special Operations Community at National Defense University and has also taught on the Masters program at Georgetown University. In 2020, President Donald Trump named Gorka to the National Security Education Board. This board provides strategic consultation and was established by congressional act in 1991. Dr. Gorka has briefed the CIA, the DIA, the US Navy Seals, the Commandant of the Marine Corps, served as an expert for the DoJ during the Boston Bombing trial, and testified before Congress on the threat of Global Jihadism. He remains a guest instructor at the John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Center and School, at Fort Bragg, the home of the Green Berets. Connect with Dr Gorka....

You will, of course, know him from his media time, but also his time in the White House. But we start this conversation looking at his background. He was born in the UK, grew up in London, also lived in Budapest for 16 years. Hungarian is his first language, and he brings a unique perspective, I think, to the US, understanding UK and US culture and politics more than most others. But then we of course get on to President Trump and his latest indictment. Number three, he will need a trophy cabinet to collect these. We discuss what exactly is happening. We discuss election integrity. We discuss David Wise being the special counsel, on the Hunter Biden case. And then we end up with something completely different, looking at Islam or Islamism or Jihad. The first book I read of Sebastian was Defeating Jihad, The Winnable War. A lot to pack in, in 45 minutes.  Dr. Sebastian Gorka, it is wonderful to have you with us today. Thank you for your time.  (Dr Sebastian Gorka) Thank you for inviting me today.  Not all. And obviously, @SebGorka on Twitter, GETTR, Substack is there, Sebastian Gorka, America first, what, every day, Monday to Friday, 3 p.m. Eastern Time. There's a lot. And of course your latest book, The War for America's Soul, is out and available. Lots to discuss, but if I can mention your website on your merchandise. I loved it. sebastiangorkastore.com. First of all, your FBI, Fascist Bureau of Intimidation, but then your LGBTQ, which I thought was lovely. You looked well in LGBTQ, let's get Biden to quit. I loved it. Yeah, it's sad. The FBI t-shirt, Fascist Bureau of Intimidation is now our second hottest selling item on the website, SebGorkaStore.com. And even before that, I designed a mug. With a photograph of the Gestapo and an FBI agent in his raid jacket with the big letters FBI. And this was six months ago, or maybe it was after the raid on President Trump's home. And I said, you know, 80 years from Germany to the United States, the FBI, Biden's Gestapo. And my producer, who's a pretty forward-leaning guy, pretty hardcore conservative, he said, that's a little bit too much, Seb. Yeah, that's a little bit. That is like the number one item, because sadly, and this kind of, I don't wanna go into too much detail here, but before I joined the White House, I did a lot of work with the FBI. I trained them. I trained literally thousands of agents and intelligence analysts on the ideology of Jihad. That was my job with my wife. We had the only external contract providing that kind of training to the Bureau. And I was proud to do that. Now, after what the FBI has become, raiding the homes of pro-life ministers, raiding President Trump's home on a trumped up garbage documents charge. If the FBI knocked on my door right now, Peter, I'd tell them, go talk to my lawyers, sod off. I mean, this is what has happened to America under the radical leftist neo-Marxist cabal that is today's Democrat Party. Its bonkers and I want to end with that touch on the Islam on the jihad because Defeating Jihad was at the first time I came across a book by you and I remember, it is this book here Defeating Jihad, fantastic book but we'll we will end off on that but if I can maybe start with, I mean you don't you don't need an introduction even for a UK audience, it's your, but you're not the typical, U.S. media or political personality. Your military, national security and political background is British and European. Do you want to touch on that because that sets you apart from many others? Yeah, I appreciate it. So yeah, I've had a pretty crazy whirlwind of a career. My parents escaped communist Hungary during the revolution in 56. My father created a secret Catholic student's organization in college to undermine the communist takeover. He was betrayed by Kim Philby, one of the Cambridge Apostles, one of the worst traitors of the Cold War. He was arrested at the age of 20, tortured and given a life sentence in a political prison. After six years, he was liberated literally by the revolutionaries who captured a Soviet tank in 56. And with the 17-year-old daughter of a fellow prisoner, he escaped to the West over a minefield, They made it to the UK. A few years later, they were married and those are my parents. I grew up in the UK, speaking Hungarian. My first language was Hungarian. I learned English in preschool and kindergarten. Hungarian is a difficult language. It is, yeah. According to the State Department, it is the hardest non-pictographic language. So if you leave out Chinese and Korean, it's the hardest non-pictographic because it's not related to anything. You can learn the Romance languages, the Indo-European languages. It's irrelevant. it is this kind of Martian language in the middle of Europe. I think it wires your brain differently. It's good for cognitive capacity if you can speak that language and other ones. Then in college, so I went to London University. In college, a buddy of ours used to disappear every two weeks and wouldn't come out drinking with us. One Friday, I said to him, dude, you're coming out with us this weekend. He said, no, I can't. Where are you going? And he refused to tell me. And I said, well, I'm not going to let you go unless you tell me where you're going. And he said, I can't tell you, but why don't you come with me? And I was this long-haired philosophy and theology student. I had hair down to my chin and kind of like on a bet, on a dare, I said, oh, okay. So I followed my buddy to this unmarked building in downtown London, this red brick building. And it turned out to be the headquarters of the Military Intelligence Reserve. So the intelligence cause TA element in London, and it was selection weekend. And I was given a pair of overalls with about 30 other people. And I'd driven in a lorry to the middle of nowhere. And I did selection for this weird iconoclastic bunch of eccentrics in the intelligence core. And I loved it. I mean, linguists, interrogators, photographic interpreters. So I joined the territorial army intelligence core in college, loved it. Then the whole communist system collapses. And because I spoke Hungarian, French, German, and English and had served in a British military unit. That parlayed itself into a job working for the first conservative, freely elected government in Hungary. So I ended up working as an assistant to the deputy minister of defense, helping the former Warsaw Pact Hungary get into NATO. So, that was milestone number two. And then just to cut it short, 9-11 hits, I had a bit of background in counterterrorism. And I'm invited to teach on a Pentagon-funded counterterrorism training course out of Germany. There's this beautiful base the Americans never gave back to the Germans after World War II. It's called Garmisch-Partenkirchen in the Marshall Center. And for four years, I would commute between Budapest and Bavaria. And I teach counterterrorism to a group of international officers. And eventually that translated to me and my American wife and our kids moving to America. I became a U.S. citizen, a professor of irregular warfare at National Defense University, at the Marine Corps University. And the last kind of milestone is the book you held up. The book, Defeating Jihad, got onto people's radar screens and helped me to get a job in the White House working for President Trump. I was deputy assistant to the president for strategy based upon all the work I'd done in counter-terrorism. And now I have a national radio show, And God's been very good to me, Peter. Funny, from Ealing to Budapest to D.C, it's quite a journey.  Can I, because in the US, I think probably from my point of view, there's only maybe Steve Hilton and Raheem Kassam who have an understanding of what happens over in Europe, both in being heavily involved in politics in the UK. So you're kind of a fish out of water there, and see things quite differently. I mean, the whole election integrity stuff, I know watching the votes coming in in London many times, it is a paper ballot. We would never consider an electronic voting machine. So you see things quite differently that way. Well, I do. And I'm kind of galled by the fact that, look, there's only one flag on the moon, and it's America's flag. And there's six of them. So we managed, out of all the nations on God's green earth, to send men to the moon half a dozen times. And we can't have modern elections run in ways that are fitting for a superpower. I mean, think about it. We don't have voter ID. In many states of the union, you don't have to prove who you are when you go and vote. You say who you are. They look up your name and your address. And if you can confirm the address in the big record in front of the poll worker, you're given a ballot and you vote, which is asinine. Democrats say showing an ID at the polling station is voter suppression of minorities, which of course is the most bigoted thing you can say because you're saying black people and brown people are too stupid to get a driver's license is really what the Democrats are saying. And not only that, thanks to COVID and many other things, we don't have an election day. Here in Virginia, I live just outside Washington, D.C. in Virginia, which is now run by a conservative governor, but even he has failed to change the fact that in the Commonwealth of Virginia, this probably shock your listeners, and if you don't believe anything I say, please do look it up. We have 45 days of voting. We vote for a month and a half before the election, which is just asinine. I mean, Mexico, which is in the midst of a drug-fueled insurgency, has voter ID. India, with a billion people, has voter ID. And the fact that we can't count our votes on election day and it's one day, and we don't have voter ID, it tells you why things like 2020 can happen. Okay, let's talk about President Trump. We've just seen another indictment. I'm kind of thinking he's gonna have to have a trophy cabinet of all these indictments because they're building up. What on earth is going on? Well, yeah, he posted on his social media site, Truth Social, last week after the third indictment here in Washington, DC. He, you know, tongue-in-cheek, he said, well, one more indictment and I've got this election sewn up. It's insane, I mean, utterly insane. And he's right. I mean, every time, you know, they drop another, you know, facetious, false indictment, his popularity actually increases. What's going on? I'll tell you what's going on. President Trump is a force of nature. In 2016, he got 64 million votes. Four years later, after being called a racist, a misogynist, an Islamophobe, a Nazi, and a white supremacist for four years by the mainstream media, he got 10 million more votes, which is unheard of. He got 74 million votes, the most of any incumbent president in history, despite the fact that the Democrats mailed out 81 million ballots to be not voted on on election day, but to be filled in by somebody somewhere and then posted back or dropped into collective ballot harvesting boxes. So despite all of the shenanigans, he gets more votes than any incumbent president. Now they don't have COVID, to have that cover of mailing out ballots, and they're very worried. The Uni-party, and look, I said this when I was in the White House. I said it when I left the White House, Donald Trump won despite the Republican Party and not thanks to the Republican Party. He is a deadly threat to the vested interests of the Uni-party, as Steve Bannon calls it. Why? Because he's not owned by any of their special interests. He's not owned by the Chamber of Commerce that owns the GOP. He's not owned by Big Oil or Big Pharma. He's not owned by the unions like the Democrats are. He is a clear and present danger to the quote-unquote political elite that just wants to control the lives of 330 million people, irrespective of what those people want. So, you know, the Democrats have to put him in prison. He's now, depending on which poll you look at, Peter, he's 20 to 40 points ahead of his nearest rival, the governor of Florida, Ron DeSantis. I mean, he is the de facto Republican nominee, and in the latest polling, he's beating Biden as well. So they're just desperate. They are throwing everything at him. This latest indictment, I know your listeners probably won't watch it or read it. This latest indictment is so Kafka-esque. It's so KGB tactics. They have indicted Mayor Giuliani, one of the greatest Americans who ever lived, who put five Mafia dons in prison when he was a prosecutor in New York prior to becoming the mayor of New York. They have indicted him for conspiracy because he retweeted a tweet saying, please call your state representatives and senators to request a special session so we can verify the results of the election. That tweet is deemed to be a felony by this woman, this prosecutor in Fulton County, who by the way, a little bit of a delicious tidbit, is the daughter of a former Black Panther extremist. I mean, you cannot make this stuff up. They have to stop him because he's not controlled by them.  And I mean what happened to Rudy was intriguing living through 9-11 watching America's mayor as he became and absolutely loved and yet because of his support for Trump the establishment just turns on him. I mean apart from Trump that he is the biggest example of the lunacy of the establishment. Yeah I mean look at you know go back and just Google 9-11 and Rudy Giuliani, and you'll see the cover of Newsweek, the cover of Time. He's standing there at ground zero on the pile of rubble. He's getting the New Yorkers back on their feet after 3,000 Americans and others were murdered by jihadi terrorists. And now he's some kind of traitor who should be given 200 years in prison. But look, it's not about Rudy. I mean, it happens to everybody. It happens to me or anybody else who works for the president or supports the president. But look at what happened to him. Remember Donald Trump five years ago. No, no, let's go six years ago. Let's go 10 years ago. Donald Trump was loved by everybody. I mean, rap singers rapped about being the Donald. You know, he would have lauded cameo appearances in, you know, Home Alone 2, the movie. He had, for 14 years, the most popular reality TV show in America. The Apprentice was the most popular reality TV show in America. He was loved. Everybody wanted to be the Donald. Everybody. The second he comes down the escalator, The second, he says, I'm a conservative and I want to be your president, he's the devil incarnate. This tells you what you're dealing with. This is who the left have become. This isn't your grandfather or even your father's Democrat party. Strong national security, pro-life, Catholics. The likes of JFK or Scoop Jackson, they would not be allowed into today's Democrat party. Today's left is open borders, if you're white, you're an oppressor, America is bad. This is what we're dealing with. So I've long said on my radio show, forget political labels, forget little r or little d, it's not conservative or liberal, it's not Republican or Democrat. The dividing line today in America and for much of our civilization is whether you love the country or not. If you love America, then you're in one tribe. If you hate America, then you're going to vote Democrat. Think about Obama, and it all starts with Obama. Obama said what during the election campaign? He said, I am going to fundamentally change this nation. Now, I don't know if you're married, Peter, but imagine if you said to your wife, I'm going to fundamentally change you, right? I don't think your wife would be too happy. You don't fundamentally change anything you love. You fundamentally change things you don't like or you hate. This is the perverse situation our civilization is in. We are being lorded over by people who hate the countries they come from and the civilizations they live in. I mean, translate it into another sector. Imagine you're a businessman and you utterly detest Coca-Cola. Why would you want to become the CEO of Coca-Cola, right? I mean, I don't know how these – it's perverse. Why would you wish to be in charge of that which you detest, unless, of course, you want to destroy it? Well, we're seeing that self-hatred across Europe, all on the left, where the left has abandoned its working class roots and become part of this woke agenda. But then the whole MAGA is a pushback on that and it's something different. It's not just the normal Republicans wanting states to be read. It's actually winning back the country and as someone in the UK it's fascinating watching the rise of the MAGA movement that puts your own country first which should be the norm. Yeah, I mean, think about it. You are lambasted. People are literally cancelled if they're public figures and they put on a red hat with the, letters M A G A. And what does that hat say? Is it a swastika? Is it the hammer and sickle, which would be fine, of course, for the left? No, it means make America great again. So you must be excoriated. You must be completely isolated and shunned from polite society if you want to make your country great again. I mean, it's truly beggar's belief, and again, it's not politics. I don't read autobiographies. I don't have the patience for autobiographies, but there's two. If you want to understand what's happened to America, there's two that I can't recommend more, and they're really life-changing, especially Andrew Breitbart's Righteous Indignation. His book on how as a drunk, mindless student at Tulane University, he suddenly became a conservative because he saw what they were doing to a black judge because he dared to be a nominee to the Supreme Court, and a conservative. This is the Clarence Thomas hearings. And chapter six of his book, Righteous Indignation, if you want to understand what the left has become, he paints it all from Antonio Gramsci in an Italian prison cell all the way through the Frankfurt School to Alinsky to Clinton to Obama. It is a masterpiece. So his book, Read Righteous Indignation. If you want to know what happened to conservative politics and to America, I was in the White House and it was Thanksgiving weekend and my boss Steve Bannon said, hey, you've got to read this book by J.D. Vance called Hillbilly Elegy. And I'm like, not interested. My wife had a copy of it. And it was Thanksgiving weekend. Went away for the long weekend. And I read the whole book that weekend. And the interesting about J.D. is, he's from a hillbilly family. He's from a real country, working class family. And he was no Trump supporter. When he wrote this, he was not a fan of Trump. Now he's a very Trumpian senator in DC. He's one of only two senators out of a hundred that I'll let on my show because he's a citizen politician, not a career politician. And in his book, which you can read in two days, three days. He just chronicles what happened to the working class in America through the eyes of his family. So how the people who literally built America, who travelled from Tennessee, from Kentucky to Ohio, became the factory workers, facilitated this incredible blossoming of prosperity and freedom after World War II, how basically the Republican Party took a massive dump on them 50 years ago and said, we can make stuff cheaper in China, we can make stuff cheaper in Mexico, we don't need factories in America, and consciously destroyed these families and said, yeah, fentanyl, who cares about fentanyl? Who cares about working class overdoses? We need to get the next shareholder meeting to demonstrate double digit growth for our companies. So this is why MAGA, this is why Brexit, this is why Maloney, this is why Modi. Because it's not party politics, it's people saying, you know what, my nation matters, and the people who built that nation matter, and we don't want to have career politicians who don't give a crap about the will of the people who say, I will represent you, become elected, and then do the polar opposite of what they were elected to do. So it's not about President Trump. It's about a global phenomenon, of the recrudescence of national sovereignty. And it's so fascinating that, you know, the word populism is a dirty word, which is, you have to stop for a second. Populism? You mean policies that are popular with the majority of the people, that's bad. If that's bad, you're either a communist or a fascist. And by the way, let's be clear, fascism is a left-wing policy. If you look at who Mussolini was, who invented fascism, it wasn't Hitler. The fasces is an ancient Roman symbol. If you look at the fact that he was an ardent communist before he invented fascism in the 1920s, you have to understand what these people are, whether they're AOC, whether they're Bernie Sanders, or whether they're Obama, whether they're you know, Klaus Schwab. These are fascists. No completely. We're seeing, actually it's exciting, the rise in populism, with many populist parties doing extremely well in Europe, until the poll, until the election, often in Spain, once we're going to have a majority with the party on the right, and suddenly they don't get that. Now the AFD, they're discussing banning the AFD because they're polling second in Germany. It's kind of the same tactics that we're seeing in America, more brazen, but we're seeing those same tactics to silence populism in Europe as well. Yeah, there's, this isn't well understood, so how we got here and what happened in 15 and 16, I strongly recommend to your viewers, there's a genius level guy who's been on my show several times, he was the head of cyber for the State Department in the Trump administration, His name is Mike Benz, B-E-N-Z, and you should get him on your show. I'm happy to connect you. And Mike Benz kind of, he made the light bulb go off for me because he explains, and he has a website called the Foundation for Freedom Online, where he has all the receipts, all the documents, all the inside video conferences from, you know, the global elitists admitting what they're doing. And Mike Benz, his huge contribution is the following. The foreign policy elite, which is totally Uniparty, right? I mean, let's be clear. The Republicans, the Democrats, when it comes to being a global police and blah, blah, blah, there's been a unanimity on that since the 1990s. And the foreign policy elite, quote unquote, built a complete superstructure to target and undermine populism abroad, whether it's Orbán in Hungary, whether it's Brexit with Obama coming and telling the British, you better not vote for independence because you'll be at the back of the queue, giggle, giggle, right? So for 30 years, they've created a system to undermine populist movements in other countries saying, oh, that's not good for us. So let's have a system where we're funding these NGOs, undermining conservatives because they're scary and fascist. And then what happened after 30 years of building this infrastructure to target the likes of Orbán or Brexiteers, when Trump comes along, what do they do? It's like the gun turrets of the ship turn from facing outwards to facing inwards. And the quote-unquote disinformation tools, the censorship tools, were targeted against populists at home. Again, do not take my word for it. Go and look at the unclassified documentation of how the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security were meeting with Twitter executives in Palo Alto on a weekly basis to have individual accounts deleted. How the story of Hunter Biden's laptop, which is, you know, all of the crimes of the Biden family, was suppressed by Palo Alto. And when that story broke, when the Hunter Biden laptop story broke four weeks before the election in 2020, you know, I tried to retweet it on my account. You couldn't, if you cut and paste the link onto your Twitter and you try to press post, it would refuse to post. Now that, you know, that's okay, I guess, I guess if you're trying to undermine an election in Cuba, but if you're doing it at home in front of your own citizens, that's when the light bulb goes off and you realize, yeah, these are fascists using fascist tools to control information to what end? Not to protect us from some boogeyman, but to maintain their grasp on power. Well, let me ask you on that issue, because I think a few days ago, program was sweetheart deal, David Wise is now special counsel. And I was trying to scratch my head trying to understand this because it seemed to be good, but then why is this happening now? For what reason? What is Biden playing at in putting this in play now? And then it was really David Wise was good, then not. So what is happening on that? But we've had Miranda Devine, Garrett Ziegler. We've discussed the stuff on Hunter, but suddenly this appears out of nowhere. Well, it's very easy to explain why, because they have to protect the Biden's for the next 15 months. I mean, remember, David Weiss is the Wilmington, Delaware, U.S. attorney who investigated Hunter Biden for four years, waited until last month to give him a sweetheart deal with universal immunity that he didn't disclose to the judge, and the judge exploded in Wilmington, Delaware, to give him a universal immunity deal on the felonious handgun purchase, the non-payment of taxes. He waited for all the other crimes to expire past their five-year statute of limitations. So he's the guy who's protected the Biden's for five years. And now, because of the pressure on the Biden's, his boss at the Department of Justice, the Attorney General, makes him, quote-unquote, special counsel to investigate Hunter Biden even further. Why? Well, very simply, if he's still under investigation, you can't ask questions about him in Congress. That's the buried lead. If an individual is under quote-unquote active investigation, when the attorney general is next testifying in front of Congress, and the chairman of the Judiciary Committee says, We want to talk about the $20 million that was sent to Hunter Biden from China and then split up amongst the family, including Joe. The attorney general says, excuse me, Mr. Chairman, this is an ongoing case I cannot comment. So it's just blatant political top cover from an existing biased individual. And by the way, it's also fascinating, if you read the statute, the statute in black and white says a special counsel is appointed when there is conflict of interest. The reigning regime, because of their implied connections, cannot fairly investigate a case. You hire somebody from outside of government. You find a lawyer, an attorney, a judge who's not part of the federal government to be the ombudsman, to be the fair investigator. You can't hire your flunky deputy from Wilmington. So the whole thing is in contravention of statute itself. But why? Because they have to protect Biden for the next 15 months. On to, at CPAC, I heard many of the candidates speak, except DeSantis, and I heard him speak in Florida a month before at CNP. And as much as I love what DeSantis has done in Florida, but my thinking is if Trump is in the ring, you don't get in the ring. You can't win. And like some of the other candidates, they're maybe looking for a position in the White House. DeSantis thinks he can beat Trump or, I mean, explain that because Trump has an unassailable lead. Why would you be crazy enough to step into the ring and try and beat him? Well, look, ego. I mean, why are people like that fat embarrassment, Chris Christie, or losers like Asha Hutchinson that nobody's heard of? Why are they running? Or Mike Pence. Mike Pence's political career after January 6th is dead. I mean, it is forever dead. The guy who said 48 hours, I played the video on my show multiple times last week, the guy who says two days before January 6th. Yes, there were serious problems with the election, and we're going to find out, and I'm going to do my duty as president of the Senate. And then he caves, the yellow belly completely collapses. That guy, nobody's, anybody who supported President Trump, or 74 million of them, none of them are going to vote for him, who ran and hid. So why the heck is he running? So there's a saying in Hungary that these are the people who if they jumped off their ego onto their IQ, they'd be committing suicide. So a lot of these people, it's just totally out of touch ego. For Vivek, who's been very deferential to President Trump, but has said, look, there are people who will vote for me who won't vote for Trump, which is fine. You can say that. But he's the guy who went to Miami the day of the president's arraignment, said, if I'm elected, I'm going to pardon President Trump. And he's sitting there with a truth social hat on, President Trump's media app. This guy is playing it very smart. I had him on my show multiple times and said, Vivek, you're not going to win, But I'd love to see you as the Jared Kushner of a second Trump term. You're an incredibly successful private business entrepreneur. You should be the innovation guy in the next Trump cabinet. So he's playing a very canny game. When it comes to DeSantis, I said on my radio show maybe two years ago, or at least a year and a half ago, if he's smart. He comes in as the vice president. He supports President Trump, he runs with him, and then in 2028, he just slides into the top slot. If he knows what he's doing, that's what he does. And he has just, it's like, you know, during the Vietnam War, it's like there's peace protesters that poured gasoline on themselves, poured petrol on themselves, and then, you know, self-immolated. This campaign has self-immolated for a couple of very clear reasons. Number one, and even off the record, his fans will tell you this, he's a charismatic black hole. I mean, he has no charisma. I think he's on the scale. I think he's a little bit on the scale and he doesn't have, he has a little bit of that autistic incapacity to socialize. That's why his wife is essential. His wife is this beautiful, charming, erudite woman. She kind of makes up for his complete lack of charm. So number one, you gotta charm voters. Number two, his, I call it his honour deficit. I mean, what he said on the Monday after the brag, the New York indictments were leaked against President Trump was appalling. I mean, just utterly appalling. He made two quips about, I don't know about hush money for porn stars, giggle, giggle, right, as the governor of Florida. And then he says, I'm not gonna get involved because I've got business in Florida. Hey, dickhead, President Trump lives in Florida. Look at the map. Mar-a-Lago is in Florida. He is a citizen of the state over which you preside, and you're not gonna get involved. And lastly, if you know his backstory, the most galling of all, he's a former JAG. He's a former member of the Judge Advocate Corps, which means what? He's a former military prosecutor. Of all people, the probity of the judiciary should be of importance to him. And he says, I'm not gonna get involved. When a prosecutor in Manhattan deletes the statute of limitations. Expunges it so he can charge President Trump with something that happened years ago that didn't happen, and you don't have an opinion? I mean, utter, utter honesty and integrity deficit. And you know, the dumbest thing of all? All he needed to say, just one sentence, this is an outrage and it should outrage all conservatives and I will not stand for it as governor of the Florida, of the state in which President Trump lives. One sentence and he would have looked like a leader. And then one additional thing, I'm not sure percentage wise, but for a lot of people who care about foreign policy, his utter U-turn on Ukraine was a disaster. When he says on, I think it was Tucker's show, So, we don't care about this, it's not relevant, he gets a lot of crap, and then 72 hours later he says, oh yes, Ukraine is important, dude. This is the only thing you had to prove something on, okay? You've been running Florida, you've got a little bit of domestic credentials, the one thing you have to convince people of is your foreign affairs national security credentials. When you do a 180 on war in Europe, not a good look, not a good look. What are your thoughts on how we've seen three indictments, as I said, the more they do, the more Trump's support goes up. And I guess every MAGA wants that mugshot of Trump because what they're trying is not working. His support going up and they thought they could I guess embarrass conservative voters to make them think he was too toxic. It's not working and yet they keep trying. Do they keep on that tactic? Do they try something else? Because at the moment it's not working.  Well look you're trying you're trying to get me to, channel lunatics. What they're doing isn't rational. What they're doing is. When you believe, I mean, let's just say one example. This individual has been labelled by the left, by Democrats, and by the mainstream media, the mainstream media, as a Nazi and a white supremacist, as an anti-Semite. This is the man who, after 23 years of broken promises from Clinton to Bush to Obama, 23 years of presidents saying, yeah, yeah, we're going to move the embassy, broken promises for 23 years, President Trump comes in and says, yeah, we're going to move the embassy and we're going to recognize Jerusalem. That guy whose daughter converted to Judaism, whose grandchildren are Jewish, he's the anti-Semite? I mean, it is a cult. I mean, TDS used to be a joke. Trump derangement syndrome, we threw that around as a joke. It's not a joke. It's a clinical condition. When you accuse a man of being a dictator. Who did nothing dictatorial, in fact, had the most open administration ever, was giving impromptu press conferences for 40 minutes as he's getting on Marine One, the helicopter, That guy's a dictator?, but the people you voted for are literally sending teams of armed FBI agents to bust down the door of a pro-life preacher in Philadelphia in front of his seven screaming kids. But that administration, they're the good guys. So I can't, look, my job, my whole life has been strategy. That's the thing I do. That was my title in the White House. That's based upon reality, empirical evidence, on logic. I can't tell you what their strategy is because it's based upon rank hatred, recuperation, and just irrationality. I mean think about this every indictment, every indictment has made him more popular and raised him more money. I had Lord Black on my show yesterday, Lord Conrad Black, and he said, he made this point that kind of like, boom, you know, kind of obvious, but yeah. Nothing they've done, nothing they've done has hurt him. Zero. So why are they doing it? Because they're insane, and because they think that if they can actually put him in prison, they can get Biden re-elected. And the joy of it all, and this is what I say with some, you know, frequency on my show, is the other side, they're evil bastards. I mean, really, if you are okay with having a 14-year-old girl, healthy girls, breasts removed in the name of transgenderism or chemically castrating a 12-year-old boy because he thinks he's a girl. If you're okay with that, you're actually demonic. I mean, you are pure evil in league with the dark one. So no doubt, evil, cunning evil bastards. But they're also stupid. This is the nice thing about... It's also dangerous because stupid people can be dangerous, but they're really dumb. They don't have a Newt Gingrich. They don't have a Victor Davis Hanson on their side. Thank the good Lord, all right? I mean, they're really dumb because they haven't even read the Constitution, Peter. The Constitution of the United States is pretty clear about who can be president. You have to be in your 30s. You have to be 35 or older. You have to be a natural born citizen, born to Americans. You don't have to be born in America. That's not correct. You have to be born to American citizens and you have to be a permanent resident in America for at least the last 14 years before the election. That's it. You can be a felon. You can have been charged and convicted of crimes that would lead to 400 years in prison. It doesn't matter. You can still be the president. That's how stupid they are. I just want to finish off on the book I mentioned, obviously your latest book, The War for America's Soul, I think that was 2019, and that is available. But I said at the beginning, defeating jihad, the winnable war. Just to finish, just on a completely different subject, the issue of, and for years I've studied Islam, for 10, 12, 13 years, and it's that cultural clash between the freedoms that Islam has and the freedoms the West have and then jihad, Islamism coming out of that. And it's not a topic that seems to be on the table for discussion a lot. And I was intrigued going to CPAC and it wasn't even mentioned and yet that is a threat just as China is a threat, just like many other issues are a threat. And I wanted just to finish on kind of your thoughts on that and why it is not part of the mainstream discussion. Well, it's not part of the mainstream discussion here in America, and for a very good reason. I mean, think about it. ISIS was on the front pages for years and years and years. I mean, American citizens being beheaded on video, the Yazidi Christian hostage-taking, Jordanian fighter pilots being burnt alive in cages. People forget ISIS was a thing. This was the biggest jihadi insurgency in history. I mean, they controlled multiple countries in the Middle East. And when we came in, we said no. President Trump said, unleash Special Operations Command, unleash Fort Bragg, unleash Delta, and get the stinking lawyers out of the way. I mean, like Shakespeare said, kill the lawyers first. We got the lawyers out of the way, and what happened? We have been told by Obama that ISIS is a generational issue. You're just going to have to suck it up and live with it. He actually said a generational issue. President Trump said, no, kill them all. Within five months of us coming into the administration, the caliphate, the caliphate of ISIS had ceased to be. People forget that. I mean, who talks about ISIS now? Nobody because we let our boys give them all a dirt nap. That's why it's not on the radar screen. Does it mean it's over? No, absolutely not. Does it mean that there won't be jihadi attacks in America because this administration is letting 6,000 illegal immigrants across the border every single day? You think you got it bad with a couple of rubber dinghies in the channel? Try 6,000 a day. We've had at least 40 people on the terrorist watch list come across the border that we know of, that we know of. So I'm not saying it won't come back. Why it's not on the radar screen? Because of the bloody good job our guys did back in 2016 and 2017 and 2018. But no, if you want to understand the threat of jihad, you have to understand that... The biggest lie since 9-11 is that they're not Muslims, right? That Al-Qaeda and ISIS are not Muslims.  Well, no, that's actually a lie. Read the Quran. Read chapter 9, verse 29. Hunt down the infidel after the holy month and kill them all unless they surrender. That's not Seb Gorka speaking. That's not Bin Laden. that's actually the word of God as quote-unquote dictated to the illiterate merchant Muhammad you know in Medina in Mecca 1400 years ago. The idea that these are perversions of Islam. Yeah you're an apologist for those who are living a very pure form of Islam because who was Muhammad? He wasn't quote-unquote the last prophet. Muhammad was, if he existed at all, he was what? He was a warrior. He is a man who went to Medina and literally wiped out a whole Jewish tribe, literally wiped out whole Arab polytheistic tribes. To the last man jackal, he killed them. That's who Muhammad was. The idea that it's the religion of peace. Well, then learn Arabic. Islam doesn't mean peace. It means submission. Submission to what? To the will of Allah. And what kind of God is that? It's a very different God from the Jewish God. It's a very, very different God from the Christian God. It is a God of zero relationship to the believer and a man, not a man, a deity who can be utterly capricious. If Allah says murder is good tomorrow, it's good. And he can change his mind the day after and say it's bad. He's not truth. God for Christians is the good. There's no such conceptualization of the good. You're not allowed to describe God, right? You're not allowed to talk about his essence. That is blasphemy. To say that you know God, or you are in relationship with God is totally haram. It is total blasphemy in the Islamic faith. But these are the ground truths that you're not allowed to talk about. But people need to read the Quran, read the Quran, read the reliance of the traveller, read the actual Muslim texts about Muhammad, and then understand why... Here's the last example. Why? There's no such thing as an Arab motorcar. Not only is there no such thing as an Arab motorcar, Peter, there isn't an Arab bicycle. Think about that. That tells you about what this deformed theology has done, to knowledge, truth, and science. The best book on all of this, and it's a short read, it's about 250 pages, is my friend Robert Riley's The Closing of the Muslim Mind. His discussion on the deformed theology that explains why Al-Qaeda, why no Muslim bicycles, Why 9-11? It is mandatory. It was one of the texts I made mandatory for the officers that I trained when I was still a professor.  Dr. Sebastian Gorka, I appreciate your time today. Thank you so much. God bless all of you, all of your viewers. Thank you, Peter. Keep doing what you do.

Who is Saul Alinsky? Among those whom he has had a major influence on politically are none other than Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. Alinsky was a writer who spurred socially disruptive behavior. He is the author of “Rules for Radicals,” essentially a handbook for leftists seeking to gain political power. The book opens with a dedication to Lucifer, for being “the first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment...” What follows is a step-by-step guide of Machiavellian tactics that slowly destroy establishments through being violently unreasonable. These are tactics we are used to seeing everywhere in the U.S. now. In this episode of Ideas Have Consequences, we will explore Alinsky's dangerous rules for radicals and the impact they've had on recent U.S. history.

In Revolutionary times, Thomas Paine said the following:“These are the times that try men's souls”.And indeed these are the times that try women's souls, some at least now that the United States Supreme Court has overturned Roe v. Wade.Thomas Jefferson admonished Americans of his time that the blood of patriots must be shed from time to time in order to refresh the Tree of Liberty. In short, the Constitutional America of 1776 (Declaration of Independence) and the Constitutional America of 1787 needed new patriots, new passion, new commitments to liberty and freedom. Now more than ever that is true. The constitutional, rule of law, freedom–liberty America of old is not only under attack but becomes divided, angry and more violent by the day. Freedom and liberty we have always taken for granted are now all the more at risk and at stake.The patriot Patrick Henry provided a testimony applicable to all of us:“Give me liberty or give me death”.Henry was willing to die for freedom. He would live under no form of bondage. Oppression and bondage in his time was English. Today it comes internally from anarchists, that small virulent, violent minority which wishes the destruction of the greatest country on earth.Our forefathers fought for freedom. They gave their blood then which we can assume made Jefferson proud. They gave us the greatest ruling document in the history of mankind, THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES. That incredible document contained the First Amendment which gave every American citizen the following rights and freedoms:1. Freedom of religion2. Freedom of speech3. Freedom of press4. Freedom of assembly5. Freedom of petitionGuaranteed, unconditional, unchanging, FOREVER FREEDOMS. Every one of those sacred, inalienable (God–given) rights and freedoms are at risk today, EVERY ONE! We the People seemed to have lost our vision, our understanding, even in some cases our desire to protect and preserve this incredible country. We have become indifferent to the struggles and problems we face. So many of us are ignorant of our history, and our Constitution, and our rule of law, and how we are governed. So many of us have withdrawn from the political process. As few as 10% will vote in some elections and perhaps no more than 60% of eligible, voting Americans will go to the polls in the most serious of elections. It has become tragic how We the People take democracy for granted. It is as though freedom will always be there no matter what we do. We the People are an easy target for violence and anarchism.One of the most anti–American Americans was one Saul Alinsky. In essence, Alinsky championed the destruction of everything, every institution, every tradition, anything and everything in America so that the country could be rebuilt and reestablished. The philosophy and beliefs of Alinksy were adopted by George Soros among others and the state of objective of Soros and others was to:BRING DOWN AMERICA.Bring it down. Destroy it. Rewrite its history. Do away with its Constitution and its rule of law. Get rid of the moral standards of the country today and especially the Judeo–Christian heritage and morality of the past. Do away with it completely! Beneath the violence, disrupt, and the lack of accountability today is this Alinsky model, the destruction of America, the destruction of everything which America holds dear. WOKE better serve to wake up America, defend itself, its values, morality and principles or all will be lost. WAKE UP AMERICANS, WAKE UP. The time may be near when the blood of real patriots will be required once again in America.We the People assume that we live in a democracy. We live by democratic principles, the core of which is freedom. That is true but our government is not a democracy. Our forefathers who forged our Constitution were suspicious of democracy. They feared an intolerant majority. They created checks and balances which would prevent as much as possible the potentially crushing majority rule. They created for us a REPUBLIC. That of course consisted of a president, senate and house of representatives. It also consisted of an independent federal judiciary with the Supreme Court of essentially nine justices as final arbitrators of the rule of law. Such a republic respected democratic principles but it guarded so very well against abuse.Those founding fathers gave us the concept of federalism. That is, that each of the individual states of America, then 13 and now 50, would be protected, have rights not specifically granted to the federal government (Constitution Amendment X), and otherwise make certain that its people were protected, and larger states would have no real advantage over smaller ones. It was and continues to be a brilliant system and check and balance.The founding fathers gave us an electoral college where leaders were not elected by majority vote but by states according to their population. They gave us the rule of law, they gave us the Declaration of Independence, they gave us the Constitution, incredible documents with incredible freedoms, fully protected. They gave us all of this as a result of the blood of so many Revolutionary patriots shed in the cause of freedom. How tragic it is that we sit back and take those then given freedoms for granted, watch them whittle away daily, observe the indifference among younger generations and the beginning of the erosion and eventually the elimination of our great Country, its way of life and government. The great destroyers win, Alinsky, Soros, Sanders the socialist. They refuse, those anarchists and anti–Americans to work within the system for reform. They work for radical change and ultimate destruction. And, We the People sit back and watch it happen and in so many ways do nothing. Violence is everywhere. There are threats, intimidation, radicalism everywhere. A senator threatens a supreme court justice. Senator Schumer from New York threatened Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh as follows:You will pay the price.It is simply unbelievable how seemingly everything America stands for, believes in, the fundamental structure of our great Country is not only under attack but is being destroyed day by day. History shows us that democracies as the foundation of government cannot last. Democracies in history last at or about 200 years. America is now 246 years young and We the People, our democracy, our great constitutional republic may be near the end. How I for one hope and pray that simply does not happen.The Constitution and its Amendments of the United States is the finest document, political governing document which mankind can produce. But it cannot last forever. Only one document can. And that is THE WORD OF THE LORD, the Holy Bible which gives us the world's only reliable ABSOLUTE TRUTH. The Constitution gives us the freedoms of mankind. The Bible gives us heavenly freedoms, eternal freedoms, the ways of the Lord God Almighty, the most important freedom of all and the most important freedom of all, salvation in Jesus Christ. Man's democracy cannot last, but the democracy of peace and love of Jesus Christ will last forever.Human leaders, people, men and women, politicians and those in power can never last. The only person, leader, visionary, difference maker who can is Jesus of Nazareth, the Christ of Glory. That eternal leader will never fail.So, now in America violence reigns. Everything is under attack. The spiritual warfare has begun. The:FIGHT OF FAITH IS HERE AND NOW!So, my fellow Americans, my fellow Christians, how will you fight this fight of faith? HOW? Put on for sure the armor of the Lord. And the helmet of salvation. And the breastplate of righteousness and be ready for the spiritual war. It is here, IT IS HERE. You will be called upon to defend your faith with everything you have. If you truly believe as a Christian and you will not compromise, you will take on a danger you never have before. How will you respond? Will you stand up to violence? Would you use any means at your disposal to protect your family, your friends and yourself from violence? You will engage in prayer, more prayer perhaps than ever before. But you will be called upon to ACT, and perhaps act returning violence for violence. Would you do that? We the People, we Christians have choices to make we never have before. In prayer, may our Lord lead us to the right decisions for God, and Country, and family, and all humankind.Freedom, inalienable rights, God–given rights, are of the most value, the most important to all. Don't lose them or lose life in the process. May God bless you, my fellow Americans as you energize the courage to stand for Christ, for Christianity and for the greatest Country in the history of mankind.Always remember. FREEDOM ONCE LOST IS LOST FOREVER!

Transcript LLWD – Sabot Media on Rural Organizing Margaret 00:15 Hello, and welcome to Live Like the World is Dying, your podcast for what feels like the end times. I'm your host, Margaret Killjoy. And I'm excited to talk this week about a subject that is very near and dear to my particular heart. And it might be near and dear to your particular hear or it might just be a subject of idle curiosity. I have no idea. I don't know where you live. You're in my head. I'm in your head. Something. Today we're going to talk about rural organizing, and we're gonna talk about some of the differences between rural organizing and urban organizing, and we're going to be doing that with Sprout and Charyan from Sabot Media and The Blackflower Collective and we're going to talk about that. First, we're gonna talk about the Channel Zero Network of anarchists podcasts. And here's a jingle from another show on the network. Bah duh duh duh dah [Margaret makes melody noises like she's singing] Okay, so if you all could introduce yourself, I guess with your your name and your pronouns and then like maybe a little bit about what Sabot Media and The Blackflower Collective are. Sprout 02:32 Yeah, hello, I'm Sprout. Pronouns are they/them. Charyan 02:37 I'm Charyan. They/them. Sprout 02:40 We're here to talk about our new project in Grays Harbor County called The Blackflower Collective. And we're here also representing Sabot Media and our podcast Molotov Now. Margaret 02:55 Where's Grays Harbor? Sprout 02:58 It's on the coast, Western Washington. The main town is Aberdeen where most people have probably heard of it is because that's where Kurt Cobain was born and grew up. Margaret 03:12 Oh, one of my favorite trans women in history. That is my contentious belief. Anyone who's ever wonder that. Yeah, Charyan 03:24 I've heard the theory. Margaret 03:26 Yeah. One of my friends was friends with Kurt and was like...and when I first started coming out was like, "Wow, you talk about your gender the same way that Kurt did." And so that's why I hold on to this particular theory so hard. But I'm not trying to...no one has ever been more mad at me on the internet as people were when I said this once on Twitter. So whatever, I'm not trying to specifically claim or not claim dead people...whatever. Anyway, that's definitely what we're here to talk about today. So, I guess really quickly, like what is Sabot Media? What is Blackflower Collective? Sprout 04:09 Well, Sabot Media is a media project that we started because we saw a need for our own reporting of certain stories around the homeless and the mutual aid efforts that were going on in our town. The local paper record the Daily World and the other local stations out here were just not covering the stories at all that needed to be told. And so we stepped up to start talking about that stuff in our own community. We've got a website on No Blogs. Sabotmedia.noblogs.org, where people can go check out our articles. We've got comics, we've got columns, we've got a podcast as I mentioned. Yeah, so The Blackflower Collective was born out of another project here on the harbor that's been going for a couple of years Chehalis River mutual aid network. And the organizers for that project did a lot of talking to the community and discussing internally about what needs there were and how to meet those needs. And the solution came out as The Blackflower Collective. So our goal there is to have a piece of land, just outside the city limits, where we can have a sustainable ecovillage to house low income and unhouse...currently unhoused people, as well as pairing that with a social center and makerspace where we can have a business incubator and people providing social services. Margaret 05:53 That's really...Okay, one of the things I got really excited about when I first heard about this project that you all are working on about it is because I think about how much...how impactful social center type spaces can be in smaller communities. Like it just seems to me...like off the top of my head, at least I think of like...I mean, a makerspace and, you know, social center space and stuff like that in a big city rules and is great, and I'm really excited when they exist, but it seems like a much higher percentage of the town's socializing or something...like it seems like a bigger deal in a smaller place. Am I like...Am I off base about this? Like, what are your kind of aspirations around that? Charyan 06:34 Not at all. That's actually kind of one of the dichotomies that we talked about in our article. And on our interview on It Could Happen Here is like the modes of socialization feel a lot different from big city and large population big city communities and, you know, smaller rural towns and whatnot. For example, like in the bigger city, the way you meet people is like, you know, you have your job, or, you know, you go out to the club or, you know, what have you. There's lots of different groups and classes you can take part in. Like you walk into any building or storefront and there's going to be a wall filled with fliers for different events and classes and all sorts of stuff. A place like here in Aberdeen, you have to hunt and dig for that kind of stuff. And even when it does happen, you're more than likely not even going to hear about it. The mode of socialization in smaller places is usually through friends and family you already have. You know, you're hanging out at somebody's house and somebody comes to the door. It's like, "Oh, hey, here's my buddy, Paul," or What have you. Margaret 07:44 Yeah, it always sort of occurred to me that, you know, living in a small town--I'm probably not going to do it, but I'm like, "Man, if I opened a punk venue, it would be the only place to go see music," you know? But that's also...maybe no one would come because there's like a tiny handful of punks in this town, you know. Sprout 08:04 Well, that's actually what we're thinking about starting to do with Blackflower to raise some funds and get our name out there is hold some benefit punk shows. There's, again, there's just not really much in the way of music venues out here. And so what we're doing is just trying to find needs and then meet them. And that's a huge...you know, coming from a city--I wasn't born here, I moved here from a big bigger city area--so, you know, having a music scene was huge. That's what got me into political organizing in the first place. So, I think it's a good subculture to cultivate to try and get people on board. Margaret 08:47 No, that makes sense. I mean, around where I'm at, like people go, people drive a long way to go to the punk show in the small town in the mountains, you know, that happens to be throwing that particular punk show or whatever thing it is. People go a long way to see live music because you have to. On the other hand, like, do y'all have the phrase "Country close?" Like where it's like, to go anywhere takes about 45 minutes, right, because it's all back country roads. I just think about how far people have to go to go get to places Sprout 09:20 Yeah, no, I haven't heard that term. But I know the concept for sure. Margaret 09:24 Okay, so the other thing I was thinking about when you were first talking about this is, you know, homelessness and mutual aid in a small town, you know, you're saying that the the mutual aid network is kind of what you all grew out of--or in response to or something like that--that's not something that people hear about much. And, you know, we hear about homelessness in big cities and stuff, but I have a feeling that people who don't live rurally might not be aware that this is also a presence in small towns across the US as well as like, you know, people living in tents and trying to make ends meet down by the river and stuff. So that's like...when I say problem, I don't mean the problem is that there are homeless people around I mean the problem is that they don't have homes. You know, that is like a big issue where you all are? [Inflected as question] Sprout 10:15 It's a huge issue, especially in Aberdeen. It's kind of the confluence for the county wherever one goes. It's the only town in the county with like state social services. So, if you're homeless, you're going to be living in Aberdeen. There's a lot of conservatives who seemed to think that it is a big city problem, that everyone is being sort of imported from bigger cities or sent here from bigger cities, but a lot of who we talked to on the streets were born here and grew up here. Charyan 10:52 Yeah, not only all that, but homelessness has been integral to the area that we live in as long as settlers have been coming here to be part of this area of Western Washington and the Pacific Northwest in particular has always been kind of the end of the line as people were coming out here because they had no place else to go. They came out to try to, like, you know, build new build new homes, not having to pay for stuff back east. All the draws of settler colonialism at West. It's...[Interrupted] Sprout 11:31 Well, the homeless camp that the city evicted off the banks of the Chehalis River in 2019 had been there probably since the turn of the century in one form or another. Vagrants and poor people just living along the side of the banks of the river. Charyan 11:52 When the port dock was still a thing before--the old one from the back like 1930s and stuff before it was finally tore out--during the days of like Billy Gohl. It was... Margaret 12:07 I have no idea who Billy Gohl is. Sorry. Charyan 12:09 Oh, just a local legend. And they tried to frame him as like a serial killer. But he was getting blamed for all the deaths from people in the mills and the factories and stuff. And the bosses would dump the bodies in the river. And they blamed them on this guy because he was a labor organizer. Margaret 12:27 What's his name? Billy Gohl. Sprout 12:29 Billy Gohl. Yeah. Margaret 12:30 That's so metal. I know that that's not the takeaway I'm supposed to get from here. Also, I interrupted you. I'm so sorry. Okay. Charyan 12:37 You're fine. There's a...If you want to learn more, there's a labor historian, Aaron Goings, who did a book recently called "The Port of Missing Men" if you'd like to learn more about that. Okay. But yeah, it was common practice for for workers, or vagrants, or whoever to get shanghaied here, you know. You go to the bar, they slip something in your drink, and then you'd wake up the, you know, out in the ocean thousands of miles away from home. Margaret 13:06 Cool. That's so great. That's such a good system that is totally consensual for everyone, and a good way to build society. [Said with a lot of dry sarcasm]' Charyan 13:17 It's Aberdeen. Sprout 13:18 So yeah, it's definitely something that's existed here since settler colonialism showed up. Margaret 13:27 I think it's really interesting how all different parts of the country or the world have these different types of darknesses to them. You know? And like, hearing about like, okay, yeah, this is the end of the line for settler colonialism heading west and things like that. And then you have workers dumping bodies and rivers and people that have Gohl [pronounced like "Ghoul"] are running around getting blamed for it. And then everyone's getting...It's like, I don't know, it's just like, really interesting. Not in a good way, but an interesting way. So, okay. One of the one of the reasons that I wanted to have you on to talk is you all recently put out an article about the difference between rural organizing and urban organizing, and that's kind of the core of what I want to ask you all about, pick your brains about is what are some of these differences between rural organizing and urban organizing? And also, what's the article called and where can people read it? Sorry. Sprout 14:18 Oh, yeah. It's called "The Dichotomy Between Urban and Rural Political Organizing." You can check it out on our website Sabotmedia.noblogs.org. Charyan 14:27 You can find it under the co-conspirator section under the Harbor Rat Reports Margaret 14:33 Cool, and Sabot is spelled with a T for anyone's listening at S-A-B-O-T. Sprout 14:37 Yes. So, some of the dichotomies that we highlight are the police in the city, the relationship between those entities and activists, the need for and difficulty in obtaining anonymity in a small town while you're organizing, and as Charyan mentioned already, the sort of modes of socialization that happens between rural and urban organizing, and just living in general. And then, there was a presentation to the National Association of the Rural Mental Health Association, rural mental health, that we highlighted, in which one of the professors for Minnesota State University laid out two general approaches to community organizing, one that he found was most applicable to urban organizers and one that was most applicable to rural organizing. Margaret 15:41 Well, let's start there. What is it? What are these two modes? What is the difference? Sprout 15:47 So, he proposed two general approaches to community organizing, the Alinsky model and the Eichler method. Saul Alinsky had a conflict theory and model, in which community power focuses on people, with underserved communities rarely having enough money to fight power but usually have strength in people. These are called the have-nots. And in order to gain power, the have-nots must take power from the haves. It's aggression oriented and it focuses on people as the agents of protest and creators of conflict. This is primarily the attitude seen in urban organizing, with large protests riots and police resistance actions framing the debate around who has power and trying to seize that power over others for oneself. In contrast to that, Mike Eichler came up with a consensus theory and model that was informed by Alinsky but focused on identifying consensus points between divergent groups. It sought opportunities to strengthen relationships between different groups' interests. It was more collaboration oriented and focused on each group's best interest in establishing trust, mutual agreements, and compromise. And then each method has its own list of rules. Margaret 17:03 Okay, is Saul Alinsky the one who wrote Rules for Radicals? Sprout 17:06 Yeah. Margaret 17:07 Okay. This is so interesting to me because like, one, when you describe those things side by side, my thought is like, "Oh, the second one's better." and like, maybe that's not true. And also, probably when I was younger, I certainly didn't act in that way. Right? So what makes the second one not just better? Charyan 17:28 The way I kind of view it from what I've read is it's kind of like the offensive and defensive arms of the movement. Margaret 17:37 Yeah, I guess that's the other thing is that, like, whenever I see a dichotomy I want it to be false. And so I'm a little bit like, "Why not both?" Sorry, go ahead. Charyan 17:43 So like, with...I forget exactly what where...how it shakes out. I'm certain they can expand more about in a second. But, it's kind of kind of like a yin-yang thing where like, rural communities will focus on one with a kind of a dash on together while urban communities would focus on the other one with a dash of...a little bit of both with.... [interrupted] Sprout 18:12 It's not so much like one is better than the other, it's more like one is more likely to arise in a small rural area, and the other one is more likely to arise in a in a dense urban environment. I think a lot of that probably has to do with this main dichotomy that we highlight in the article between police and the city in a rural environment versus in an urban environment. A lot of what you see in big cities is the importation of officers from surrounding areas so that no one serving on the force in say, Oakland, is actually living in the city of Oakland. They're generally imported from the surrounding suburbs. So you get a sort of like invading force sort of feel. And here, majority, if not all of the officers live in the community. So while they're all police and they all have the same social functions, it looks a lot different. And the reactions...like the activists' reactions to those are a lot different. Margaret 19:26 Okay. Yeah. I think about like the difference between...a really bad thing happened near where I live--that I don't want to talk about for sort of just general content warning type stuff--and of the police that responded to this bad thing, you know, the state police were how I'm used to cops acting where they were like, not so nice, right? And the sheriff treated everyone at the scene like a human, right, like, they treated everyone at the scene like they had just seen something horrible because that's what just...something horrible had just happened, right? I feel bad being so vague about this but whatever. People can deal. And yeah, because you can see in the state police...you know, where as the sheriff is like, well, the sheriff grew up with everyone who's involved in this. And so it's really interesting to me because you get this thing where it's like...I often wonder, I'm like, well rural culture is so into being outlaws, they're so into like--they do at least as much crime as anyone else if not more--you know, why are so many center-right rural communities, especially more recently, all bootlickers. And like, I guess if you generalize your idea of the police as being like, "Oh, well, that's Joe. He happens to be the sheriff," as compared to like, these storm troopers walk down the street and like kick everyone's heads in every...once a day or whatever, you're gonna have like really different conceptions of them. Am I completely off base about like kind of...I probably should have just asked....[Interrupted] Charyan 21:02 Yeah, cause like in smaller towns right around here, you definitely get like that Andy Griffith kind of vibe from some cops, or at least from people's perceptions of the local police. Our local police definitely have their share of dirty dealings and unreported abuses and whatnot. I've known people personally who have been murdered by our local police department and it just...but it doesn't get the attention that someone in the bigger city might. Sprout 21:32 We found that the police here have largely shown if not ambivalence, like tacit support for the mutual aid that happens here. Charyan 21:43 We've gotten like the...what's the word I'm looking for? Like, thanks but a different word. Margaret 21:51 A nod? Charyan 21:52 Yeah, we've definitely received words of like appreciation and thanks and whatnot from the handful of officers or whatnot at like the meals when they drive by checking on people or whatever. Sprout 22:03 And that's the officers as distinct from the city. The city would definitely shut us down in a heartbeat if they could, but the officers have no desire to do so. Charyan 22:15 Some of them anyway, Margaret 22:16 That is interesting. Because, yeah, very often in an urban environment, a lot of the elements of the city often support a lot of the mutual aids. Not always but like the police are more likely to be the primary antagonistic force. This might just be showing that I haven't lived in the city in a long time. But that is like my understanding. And it is interesting, though, because in both cases, the police are not part of the democratic existence of the society, right? Like, one of the things that I found so interesting that we saw more boldly during the past few years is police departments just straight up being like, "I don't care what we're supposed to do. We're not going to do that. And you can't make us do it." And then having the city back off and be like, "Oh, well, I guess we can't make them." And you're like...it was a good moment for people to realize that like the police are completely not democratically controlled or not controlled by the people. They're not, you know, they're just a wholly separate thing. So, it's still interesting that they're like, doing it in the good way. And that's probably why rural outlawy people tend to like the so-and-so cop because that so-and-so cop lets them get away with driving home drunk from the bar or whatever. Sprout 23:29 They have a lot of discretion. Charyan 23:29 Yeah. Like, the whole politics between the population as compared to the police is reversed or, you know, one of those dichotomies, where like, in the smaller town we have more liberal "chill" police as compared to a reactionary base, the reactionary population that shows up to the big city protests to mow people down in trucks and stuff like that, versus in the city where you have that more larger liberal population and outright fascist cops Sprout 23:57 It does make it hard to push the "all cops are bastards" sort of rhetoric, right, when you have that sort of, "Oh, here's officer so-and-so helping this grandma across the road," kind of Facebook posts. Whereas if you're in a big city and you, like you mentioned, you have these sort of shock troop looking people coming in and beating people in your neighborhood up every so often, it's a lot easier to make that argument that "Oh, look at these police, you know, we need to abolish the police." But out here, the argument is still the same. We believe...we're not saying that we shouldn't abolish the police just because, you know, they're helping old ladies with groceries, but right it's a harder argument to make. Charyan 24:51 Yeah, we're gonna be expanding on that too here soon in a article we're gonna be releasing soon and a episode of Molotov Now that we'll be discussing that article called "The Problem with Good Cops," trying to dive into this idea a little bit more. Margaret 25:08 That's a really good idea and kind of an important thing because we need to, you know, I believe ACAB, right? I believe that the police are the worst. But, I also recognize why like, that's not going to be my main talking point around here, or like not my main starting talking point around here, partly because it is a more subtle bastardry because it's less obvious like, "Well, that person hits people for living," even though they still do, right? They exist to enforce violence. And, you know, one of the proudest strange moments of my life is I got a cop to quit once. Sprout 25:48 Nice. Margaret 25:49 Yeah, it was a weird...I don't think I've told the story on-air before. I wasn't...It wasn't solely me. But basically, I was like, at a nerd convention and I was like, complaining about police. And this one person was like, "I'm a police." And I was like, "What?" And then they were like, "But I'm a good police." They didn't, but they were like, "I'm good at..." you know, and we talked.... Sprout 26:12 They knew they had to make that argument. Margaret 26:13 Right, totally. But then even from that context, I was like, "Well, you throw people in cages for living for breaking laws that aren't immoral like having weed." And they were like, "Well, I choose not to throw people in jail for weed," and I'm like, "Oh, so you support the system that allows this to happen," you know, and it's like, and I saw them at another convention--and I don't know if it's solely this conversation--but some other another convention and they're like, "I quit." And it's like, I think the ACAB...It's like the rural ACAB is a little bit more of a like it--depending on, I mean, some rural police are just as fucking awful and terrible as any other cop in a very obvious way--but you still have like...it's this...The role you are playing in society is bad. And your choice to participate in that role is bad and has negative consequences versus just like, "That guy's a piece of shit," you know? Sprout 27:12 Well, and it's bad for the officers themselves as human beings. Charyan 27:16 Yeah, there's a YouTuber, That Dang Dad, they do some videos. They're actually an ex-cop who are fully ACAB police and prison abolition now. They do a video kind of talking about how being a cop like messed with their mentality and mess with their mind because of the way that they do the training and the way that they're expected to act. And it does nothing good or healthy for them. Their channel isn't really like the ex-cop channel. They have a lot of other really good content as well, but they do have some good videos on those subjects. Margaret 27:53 That's cool. Sprout 27:54 So probably the most beneficial thing that we as abolitionists could do for police is to get them to quit their jobs. Margaret 28:02 Yeah. Sprout 28:03 You know, because it's not good for anyone. I often make the argument with people when I'm talking about the, you know, the wider social revolution, that it's desirous for everyone including Bezos. You know? I don't think that he's got a life that he's enjoying living, you know, a whole lot more than anyone else. I think that this system brutalizes and emiserates everyone and it's even those at the top who can benefit from having their social position taken from the hierarchies having being abolished. Charyan 28:34 Yeah, and all this stuff requires us to do the same kind of organizing and the same kind of things that we're already talking about doing. Say, like, you know, preparing for a strike, for example, in the workplace, though, like, it's all the same stuff we would need to do to help cops be able to quit their job, you know, make sure that we're going to be able to feed their families, making sure that their house is going to be warm, you know, all these same kind of support structures that we're building for ourselves. We need to offer to these people but with the pretense of like, "You gotta stop being a cop." Margaret 29:08 Yeah, totally. It's like, they're kind of like...Like, Bezos is like the person I'm like, least concerned about the well being of as relates to all of this. But I have always...I've gotten in arguments with people about it, where I'm like, "No, I want there to not be billionaires, by force if necessary but ideally, without force, you know? Like, I don't think that they like, need to be punished. Like, I don't believe in vengeance and punishment. I believe in problem solving, for me as an anarchist, like I believe...and sometimes that might look like stopping people by force, right? Like it's not...I'm not saying like, "Oh, we need to like think about the cops' feelings while they're in the middle of hitting people or whatever." Sprout 29:52 But sometimes, the best thing you could do is to stop them by force. Margaret 29:58 Yep, totally. Sprout 29:59 For everyone, you know, so. Charyan 30:01 Before you can convince someone to stop punching someone in the face, you kind of got to grab their arm. Margaret 30:06 Yeah. And frankly, if you can't convince them to stop punching them in the face, you might have to punch them in the face harder. You know? Like, but that's not the ideal. The ideal is... Sprout 30:18 It's not coming from a place of revenge, it's coming from a place of understanding that their actions need to be stopped. Charyan 30:26 in solidarity with the rest of your community. Margaret 30:29 Yeah. No, that's interesting. And this ties into what you all were talking about about the difference between Alinsky and Eichlers' models, right, this sort of...a slightly more confrontational one that's more urban and slightly more touchy feely one that is more rural. Okay, why is the more touchy feely one--I know it's not the most polite way to phrase it--why is it the more appropriate one for rural places. I can imagine, right, because you have these more deeper connections with the people around you? Or like, what's the deal? Charyan 31:01 Well, I would definitely say it starts with like, the modes of socialization, where things are just a lot more personal in a small town. Everybody tends to know each other. There's a lot more deeper roots. Where in a bigger city, you're probably going for more of an appeal to the masses kind of tactic or whatever, but especially with like rural community, where we're wanting to make things community focused or whatnot, that is definitely going to be your biggest testing ground or incubator for building community, having those personal connections, which to be able to have that community, have those personal connections or whatnot, you actually have to, you know, put that work in. We need to be talking to people, we need to be having the conversations, we need to be, you know, not just going up to people and tell them like, "Hey, you're wrong. Here's how we need to be doing things." But we're saying, "Hey, what kind of problems are you facing in your life? What can we do to work together to solve those?" Sprout 32:05 Well, and it's also a function just literally of the size of the groups. When you have a smaller group--like I know, our crew here is, is pretty tight--and when you have a small group like that you have to take into account everyone's thoughts and feelings a lot more than if you have to, like a General Assembly or something where there's a couple of hundred or fifty a hundred people, not everyone might get their personal opinion heard in that setting. Whereas if you're with five people, ten people, you know, you just kind of have to listen to everyone and come to a more of a consensus model. So it's kind of the environment itself that imposes the different modes of organizing, Charyan 32:50 Yeah, and another aspect of that, too, is like, you know, in a bigger city, you're more than likely going to find more radicals. You're going to find more people who are already on board, you know, the like, "I'm for all the social justice issues, I'm all in for, you know, getting rid of capitalism, and all these things," which helps you like, avoid a lot of those harder conversations. And, it makes it easier to have that specialized group versus places like here, where we're having to do more work and finding the sympathetic liberals who are on that edge, bringing them in, and helping pull them the rest of the way left. Margaret 33:30 Okay. And is the way that that usually happens is that you're working on an issue together and then they see, they end up sort of assimilating to the sort of like leftist values of that group and realizing that they're appropriate to the problems that they're facing? Or like, what does that look like, pulling people further to the left? Charyan 33:48 Definitely its own tug of war. There's a lot of active work that needs to be done to keep groups from being co-opted by more liberal ideals or opinions and whatnot, which is always going to be a constant struggle. Sprout 34:09 There's also an effect that we mentioned in the article, there's a study out of, I think, Washington University in St. Louis, that they found that it was actually the geography that dictated whether people would lean more towards certain political labels. But, it wasn't the...which kind of sounds like what you'd expect. But what they found digging deeper into the research was that it wasn't actually the underlying political beliefs of the people that changed. It was really just the labels that they used. So what you can find is a lot of the similar sort of libertarian tendencies that you might expect out of like a more social left kind of as we would conceive of it individual but being labeled as conservative or, you know, something on the right. So, there's a lot of like mislabeling, and that happens here in this country uniquely I think and sometimes deliberately where political ideologies are mislabeled. Charyan 35:27 Libertarian is a big one. That means not what it means here everywhere else in the world. Sprout 35:34 But, you'll find a lot of people who are calling themselves one thing. And if you don't dig into that, you just think, "Oh, they're conservative. I know what that means." But if you dig into it, you find, "Oh, well, actually you think, you know, people in your community should have their needs provided for and people should take care of one another. And you believe all of these actually sort of like leftist values." And it's interesting that it's actually, again, it's like the environment itself that imposes these differences and not like any underlying individual traits. Charyan 36:09 I saw this guy at the bar recently. He was claiming to be like an anarchist, or whatever and this is unprompted, him having his own conversations when I got here, so I'm like, "What do you got to say about that?" And he started talking about Michael Malice. I'm like, "Alright. I'm finishing my drink. I'm leaving. I'm done here." Sprout 36:27 Yeah. And then you have that in the bigger cities where everyone is like, oh, using the same exact label, but you find actually, you think something completely different from me. Margaret 36:35 Yeah, you have the like, Democrats in California, who are--I'm not trying to be like, all people in California--but like the politicians and shit who have all of the same policies of like fund to the police, sweep camps, enact the war on drugs, like whatever. Sprout 36:52 The law and order liberals. Margaret 36:53 Yeah, exactly. And like, at the end of the day, there's not an incredible amount of difference besides like, what they like...I had this experience that I really appreciated lately. It's very rare that you could start a sentence with, "I was in a gun store talking about a conspiracy with the guy behind the counter, and it was cool." But that's...but it happened to me recently in this small town, and I'm like talking to the guy and his conspiracy was--and I agree with this. There's very few things that...he was like, "Yeah, I think that gun companies lobby anti-gun stuff constantly in order to spike sales." Sprout 37:35 Oh, yeah. Margaret 37:36 Yeah. And that's what...when I told someone this earlier they were like, "Oh, where is she going with this?" And they say that and they're like, "Yeah, no, yeah, of course," you know, like, we've got these, like, run on guns like, Y'all are in Washington. I, you know...I mean, in this case, it's--I dunno if valid is the right word--but, you know, Washington is poised to pass an assault weapons ban and so there's this run on guns in Washington. And that might be like...I mean, those are actually being banned. So if you go and get them now, it's legal. But as compared to like, federally, right, where Congress or whatever is talking about how they're going to pass an assault weapons ban, like, they're not. Like, maybe I'm wrong. Maybe. Whatever. But they're not. And it's like...and it seems like the reason that they do that...I don't know if it's actually the reason or not, and that's the...but the effect of it, is that everyone runs out and spends thousands and thousands of dollars on firearms. Sprout 38:36 That's funny. That's, that's where my mind jumped to when you brought it up before we started recording. I was like, "Oh, well, they're gonna sell some guns with that." I mean, there are conspiracies. So. Margaret 38:48 Yeah, no, totally. And, this one is a good example where it like literally doesn't matter whether it's a conspiracy or not. Like I also think that a huge reason as to why the Democrats don't actually ever do anything to solidify Roe v. Wade in law is so that they continue to use Roe v. Wade, hold people's right to choose over their head, hold bodily autonomy over people's head to blackmail people into voting for them. Right? Because as soon as it's solidified into law then you're not as freaked out and need to go run for the Democrat, vote for the Democrat every time. Sprout 39:22 And no one's gonna vote for a Democrat unless there's a life and death reason. Margaret 39:27 I know, because they're the least interesting political party that...All they've ever been able to do is be the lesser evil. Yeah. Have you all had the experience of having people explain about Trump being the lesser evil? Sprout 39:41 No. Charyan 39:43 Yeah. Unfortunately. Margaret 39:46 It's so fascinating to me, because I'm like, this is just literally the conversation I keep having with liberals. This is so wild, you know, only inverted. Sprout 39:55 When Trump was very first sort of running.... [interrupted] Margaret 39:59 Nah,this was recently. Charyan 40:00 I think it falls in with like, in line with the... [interrupted] I think it matches with this wave of like patriotic socialists and mega communists and all that other weird online Twitter shit. Sprout 40:03 Well was like, "I'll just throw a brick. We're just gonna throw this brick in the window and burn it all down." Margaret 40:15 Yeah. Yeah. Well, okay. My other question then is how much does the weird...How much does the culture war in your experience filtered down to the actual people that you're around? Like, I know that you all are in one of the most polarized states in the country. It's a deep blue state with like pockets of deep red, right? Sprout 40:40 Absolutely. Charyan 40:40 That's definitely our area here. Margaret 40:42 Is one of the pockets of deep red? Charyan 40:44 Yeah. Our whole city council is pretty much far right. We have maybe one or two allies, quote unquote. And that's it. Margaret 40:53 Yeah. Is that causing, like specific issues around the issues of like, are people getting harassed for wearing masks? Are people getting harassed for not wearing gender appropriate clothing? Are people of color being harassed? Like, I mean, obviously, these are...the answer, of course, on some level is going to be yes to all of these things because people are everywhere and stuff, but I'm just curious how much it is impacting people there, the culture war shit. Sprout 41:18 There's been a little bit of the whole drag, anti-trans drag fear mongering but far and away the biggest thing on their plate is the homeless? Or I guess just poor people in general because it's hard to tell out here who's homeless sometimes and who's just wearing a real baggy coat because it's always wet. But they've been pushing that issue for going on five years really hard. And by they, I mean, Save Our Aberdeen Please is our local fascist contingency. Charyan 41:58 Yeah. And so they recently tried to do a protest against like a drag show that they were doing for Christmas fundraising here recently. It was turned into a whole thing. But, ultimately, nobody ended up showing up. They got freezed out by the fog and the rain. And the property is also set back a ways from the road so there was no place for them to effectively protest at, but here last year or the year before--I'm bad with my time and dates--But there is a huge protest outside of a local Star Wars shop with a big anti-trans protests that resulted after a trans council woman that we had, at the time, had called out a local shopkeeper, the owner of the Star Wars shop, for some transphobic signs that he had displayed front and center at the business. It turned into a whole thing. They brought Proud Boys to town. It was a big ordeal. Margaret 43:01 This offends my nerd heart very deeply. Nerd culture has always been one of the safest places for gender marginalized people. Charyan 43:12 Yeah, and this guy was anything but safe. He was a groomer. He let his kid deal heroine out of the back of the shop. Just nothing but bad from this guy. Sprout 43:27 Yeah, but this small group of old ladies who were just trying to pick up trash somehow coordinated like 50+ Proud Boys to show up for that event. So... Margaret 43:41 Jesus. Charyan 43:42 It also appeared on Stormfront before any local news. It went straight from local Facebook drama to Stormfront. Sprout 43:50 Yeah. And then it was a part of the Right-Wing Outrage Machine for about 24 hours. Charyan 43:56 They brought Matt Walsh to town. He put something about based grandpa in that fucked off documentary, whatever you'd call it that he made, the "What is a Woman" shit? Margaret 44:08 Yeah, cuz he's never met one. So that's why he made that. It was the only to get women to talk to him. [said sarcastically] Charyan 44:15 I saw Lance from The Serf Times talking about him and the crew from Daily Wire, about how none of them know how to operate a fucking washing machine. And it was just hilarious. Margaret 44:24 I was thinking that shit. Imagine telling people that you don't know how to do your own laundry. Imagine thinking that makes you look strong. Charyan 44:37 Yeah, and proud of it. Margaret 44:40 Nothing makes it more clear that they believe that they own the women in their lives than the fact that it's like...because they're like all into...the right wing mythos is all about self reliance and shit, right? But it's like, "Well, I don't have to be entirely self reliant because I own this wife." Sprout 45:00 Yeah, that's my wife [said sarcastically] Margaret 45:02 and fucking...You all will be shocked to know that I don't like misogyny. God, imagine being proud of it. I can't. It's just doesn't make any sense to me like there...Okay, this is a kind of a question too, right? Because it's like, there's people I can talk to with different values than me, even values that like matter a lot to me, where you can kind of be like, "I see where you're coming from. I disagree strongly with your desire to protect women all the time, or the women, the girls sports team," or whatever fucking weird shit people are on. You can like, see where people are coming from...And then you have the fucking Nazis, where you're just like, how can anyone look at Matt Walsh and be like, "There's a man I can relate to?" I can't imagine anything he's saying. Charyan 45:56 He's like, the most boring guy too. Like, all his content, like it...For all the inflammatory stuff, he says, like, there's no flavor to it, it's just the most boring monotone... Margaret 46:14 And how do you deal with that? I mean, like, honestly, okay, as a question like, how do you deal with like, talking to people around you? This is one of the questions we get a lot, actually, on the show, is people are like," I live in a place--you talk about how part of preparedness is communicating with your neighbors, getting to know them--how do I talk to people, you know, in ways that are safe? How do I talk to people who are steeped in culture war, or might be steeped in culture war?" Like, and there's gonna be like, limits to this, right? Like, I'm not gonna like, go knock on the door of the person with the Confederate flag in a dress and be like, "Hey, bud, what's up?" Right? But I'm like, curious how you all navigate as organizers, because my...I just hide from everyone. My immediate neighbors know me, but I just hide from everyone, because I'm not an organizer. Like, how do you all handle that? Charyan 47:06 Well, I have no solid answers. But one thing I definitely would say, it probably is a good start, is like finding the people who are closest to you, or at least closest to your immediate circle, and just do all you can to like help out, make yourself an asset to them in a way that you guys can start getting closer on some sort of other level. And once you've gotten to a point where it's like, alright, they care about you, and they care about how things affect you, at least, you might be able to start making that bridge, like, "Hey, here's something that affects you, here's something that affects me. This is shitty," but it's going to be different for everybody in every situation. That said, I don't really have any hard fast answers. Sprout 47:55 No, I mean, when we've found the best approach has been to just ask people what they need and start there, and then don't over promise, you know, if they need more than you can provide. Let them know that. But, consistency, you know, showing up, and doing what you tell someone you're gonna do, those those can help build a reputation, you know, something that's going to generate respect regardless of your political views is you just being out there in your community helping people meet their needs. And, how you can do it as an anarchist is that element of asking what their need is and not going in as charity, saying, "Here's a bunch of blankets. I didn't call ahead to see if that's what you needed." But you know, like, going in saying, "Hey, what do you need?" And then helping them get that without judgment. That's pretty much what we've done and it's taken us this far. So, I'm pretty proud of it. Margaret 49:05 Makes sense. Well, the main thing that y'all are currently working on we haven't talked too much about, but kind of here at the end, I'm wondering if you want to talk about your...you know, Blackflower Collective, you're talking about getting this space, right? How's that going? Like, what...what are y'all running into as things that are helping or not helping as you work on that? Charyan 49:26 Well, our main obstacle and our main goal right now is finding land, being able to have property in the hand is vital for our project because between the hostile political environment in town, and all the other problems associated with renting property, we need to have a property that we can own to get this off the ground. And with property values rising and skyrocketing and us pretty much essentially starting from zero to get this off the ground, we are head focused on trying to figure out how we can do fundraisers, how we can launch some side businesses to help fund this project because we're looking at pretty much anywhere between $300,000 and a $1,000,000 we're going to need to raise for this property. Sprout 50:17 Yeah. Right now we're focused on getting the word out because it's just a brand new idea and a brand new project, and starting to generate some sources of revenue. So we have Blackflower Bookkeeping, if there's any radical businesses that need bookkeeping services, hit us up. We also have Blackflower Permaculture. So, we're starting to do some design work around permaculture. And so those are two sources of revenue that we're trying to open up, as well as the--as I mentioned before--the benefit shows, which not only would serve to start to cultivate sort of community around the project but would hopefully be another fundraising effort. Margaret 51:07 Yeah. Okay, so with the bookkeeping thing. One of the things that's come up a bunch of times...I've met people who've been like, "I want to be an anarchist." But people think that they're like, get kept out of anarchy because they're not like punks, or they're not like...their skill set is not like, organized...depending on what they think of anarchism, either they're not a punk, their skill set is not antagonizing cops, or their skill set is not organizing or whatever, right? And I've met people who are like, "Oh, I'm only good at spreadsheets. I don't know how I could be of help." And I just like, want to shake them and be like, "Every group I know needs a spreadsheet wizard." Charyan 51:48 So, for a message for all the boozy radicals that are listening that are looking for their entrance into radical spaces, and anarchist spaces, and whatnot, we definitely could use a lot more of those skills that are removed from a lot of lower income people and whatnot. Like, for example, I need a fucking anarchist lawyer. Get me a Saul Goodman. Someone, please, come through for me. Margaret 52:20 We'll talk after. There are good anarchist lawyers. Sprout 52:25 I mean, we need every skill, you know, when you think about it. So yeah, there's no wrong place to get involved. That's the thing is, you don't have to be out on the front line throwing yourself at a line of police. You can do anything. Just do it for the revolution. Margaret 52:45 Yeah, yeah. Fuck yeah. Well, that feels like kind of a good end note. If people are interested in supporting you, or hearing more about the stuff that you're doing, do you want to talk about your pod...Like, where can people find your...well, people can find your podcast where are they found this podcast. It's called Molotov Now. But, you want to plug any of the stuff you're working on? Charyan 53:09 Well, if you want to find more of our projects from Sabot Media, you could find our website at SabotMedia.noblogs.org. Or check us out on your social media platform of choice @Aberdeenlocal1312. Sprout 53:28 Ideally at Kolektiva's Macedon server. So, for Blackflower, the website is blackflowercollective.no blogs.org. And that has all the information about where to donate and what the different projects that we're trying to get off the ground are. And any information that comes up about new events or shows anything like that we'll be putting on the website as well. Margaret 53:58 Awesome. All right. Well, thank you all so much, and I can't wait to hear more about what you all are getting up to. Charyan 54:07 Thank you. It's been great talking with you. Sprout 54:09 Yeah, thanks for the opportunity. Margaret 54:16 Thank you so much for listening. If you enjoyed this episode, you can go and start a rural organizing project. Don't call it that.

The Mao and Alinsky inspired activists are getting what the Devil wants them to get: neighbors hating neighbors. Once again, it's a made-up condition called race and, if you care about justice and watch the news, it's hard not to give the Devil something else he wants: our anger. Today, I hope to practice the skill of going through news would make any thinking person angry while taking angry thoughts captives to Christ. Sadly, it's a good time to practice this skill. While the anti-white Mockingbird Media works with the Maoists to pretend a man was murdered in a New York Subway train for being hungry, they largely ignore the case of a black man who decided to shoot and kill two white people because, he said, they were white.The separate Country of California has determined how much money people who never held slaves will give people who never were slaves but, they have added some bonus payments . . . people who never discriminated on housing loans or unjustly put people in prison will give money to people who--maybe--experienced such discrimination. Maybe it's just me, but I cannot read news like this and remain in the Holy Spirit unless I am intentional about it, which is what I hope to practice in this Episode. What does God's Word say? 2 Corinthians 10:5 We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.Galatians 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.Proverbs 22:2 The rich and the poor meet together; the Lord is the Maker of them all.James 2:1-4 My brothers, show no partiality as you hold the faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory. For if a man wearing a gold ring and fine clothing comes into your assembly, and a poor man in shabby clothing also comes in, and if you pay attention to the one who wears the fine clothing and say, “You sit here in a good place,” while you say to the poor man, “You stand over there,” or, “Sit down at my feet,” have you not then made distinctions among yourselves and become judges with evil thoughts?Matthew 5:43-48 “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? And if you greet only your brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same? ...2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.Episode 815 Links - Man Charged With Hate Crime After Allegedly Shooting Two Strangers Execution Style Because They Were WhiteLanguage Warning: An upset black man riding the NYC subway clashes with protesters for interrupting his ride - he's shoved back by the group and police.Leftist rioters in NYC created a hostage situation, blocking train doors to prevent the Metro subway from running in an act of support for Jordan NeelyAnti-Trump Organization prosecutor heading investigation into Jordan Neely's killingCalifornia Panel Calls for Billions in Reparations for Black Residents; A task force recommended that legislators enact a sweeping program to compensate for the economic harm from racism in the state's history.Denver City Council member Candi CdeBaca, who is running for re-election, says white owned businesses should be taxed extra and redistributed to black owned businesses.Democratic Socialist of America Councilmember Tammy Morales introduced the board that will be overseeing Seattle's Social Housing program, made up of people who are/were homeless, socialists & others who have presided over the city's "homeless" disaster.

Saul Alinsky (1909-1972) was a leading political activist and theorist, social critic, self-described “radical,” and an architect of the modern Left's structure and approach to advocacy and electioneering. Alinsky pioneered “community organizing,” a form of coalition-building centered on aligning the common goals of multiple interest groups too small or electorally weak to command a legislative majority. He also invented the tactic of using shareholder activism to pressure publicly held companies into adopting “social justice” policies, today a common practice on the Left.

"The Way Ahead" A brief recap of intro and conclusion my thoughts Announce next book to review.

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

THE THESIS: Saul Alinsky was an evil man who is, thank God, dead. But, his plan for America marches on, now being pushed by the smarter, slicker, better funded, more connected and more evil WEF and their adherents. We can grade their progress at destroying America and, in so doing, make information into power by properly fighting against them. THE SCRIPTURE & SCRIPTURAL RESOURCES:  Saul Alinksy, the “community ‘organizing'” guru of Barack Hussein Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton dedicated his first book to Lucifer--yes, seriously. The Bible describes Satan time and again . . .   Jesus taught often about Satan Here's an academic's view of the devil Ten Truths about a Liar; A Biblical Theology of Satan THE NEWS & COMMENT: While Alinsky didn't mention it explicitly, by seizing education the Alinksyites would take control of high offices and positions of influence, like the media. Controlling the media is an outcomes of all of this and we are living in a controlled media environment, here is but one example of that fact: Senator Ron Johnson: “This is alarming. Twitter is censoring @EpochTimes under the guise of "unsafe" speech. Remember what happened the last time corporate media and big tech tried to censor my investigation on Hunter Biden corruption?” ObamaCare was the moonshot of The Party--Alinsky's adherents--to take control of the human body by taking control of healthcare. The Great Reset, which was launched in full with the hoax response to the Covid Flu has shown just how far The Party has come in taking healthcare. The good news is, they are not as far along as they would hope. [AUDIO] -  Wow! This question by @FoxPhil. In the previous question, @MarlaTellez asked how much of a role public pressure played in the decision not to mandate masks. Ferrer basically answered “No, it was based on the data points I just came up with today.” [AUDIO] -   A day before this press conference in which she wore a mask while alone in her office, Barbara Ferrer, the LA County “public” “health” boss was apparently attending a massive sports event . . . unmasked, of course.  Thank God Tucker Carlson is still able to speak truth on TV. [AUDIO] - Tucker Carlson asks about the forced injections  The same people who locked down churches, schools and small businesses which lead to the ruin of lives, increases in suicide and bankruptices (while companies of The Party got many hundreds of billions of our money) refuse speak a word they usually love and refuse to tell men to take a break from anal sex to stop spreading Monkey Pox.  [AUDIO] - New Media Rule: Don't Say Gay; The media's coverage of monkeypox has studiously avoided using the word "gay" when discussing the individuals who are most at risk of contracting the viral disease. The Party started the process of installing a Universal Basic Income under cover of Covid. They seek to replace work and wealth building with mere subsistence and dependence upon The Party.  [AUDIO] - Joe Biden insists 64% of Americans think the economy is in a recession because they didn't get another stimulus check. Meanwhile real wages are down and prices are up. Wikipedia has changed the “definition” of inflation  Ben White, a “reporter” who defined recession as two straight quarters of negative economic growth has come out of his struggle session speaking The Party's words like a good supplicant.  Our financial system and national budget are a series of lies, concocted by liars. God was quite clear about financial stewardship, but The Party refuses to live within any semblance of discipline.  [AUDIO] -  @jonstewart you're wrong here. The bill gives a $400B blank check—separate from vets care—for unrelated pork that will supercharge inflation. I support the PACT Act & the $679.4B it would dedicate to vets. It's ppl trying to use PACT to shovel more pork who are exploiting vets. What Is the FBI Trying To Hide About Its Raid on Innocent Americans' Safe Deposit Boxes? Federal prosecutors want to keep key details about the planning and execution of the March 2021 raid at U.S. Private Vaults out of the public's sight. Gun control: the good news? American gun owners simply aren't gong to obey. The bad news is, The Party will keep building legal trip wires to the point where people can be arrested at anytime.  [AUDIO] - Nancy Pelosi says that the bill "prohibits the sale, manufacture, or transfer of semi-automatic assault weapons" and then says "this isn't about taking guns away from people who should have them. It's about safe storage. You got a problem with that?" Education: it's over. Government schools are lost. GET-YOUR-KIDS-OUT! Do whatever you have to do to see that your child never enter a government school.   [AUDIO] -  Randi Weingarten wants us to believe Omicron is a danger to kids (and, hence, to adults) so she continues to destroy education.  Satan was the first liar and the first divider. He divided people from God. He cannot create or love, he can twist, distort and divide. The Party is getting very near a hot, Civil War in America.  Scott Gruber, who lists himself as the digital team lead for USAID--which is Samantha Power's group--said “some people deserve to feel unsafe.” Portlanders desperately try to sell off homes taken over by squatters; "Unfortunately there are squatters on the property and seller does not have resources to remove them and is willing to negotiate the price for a buyer to take the risk of closing." “Religion” - by which Alinsky meant Christianity in America.  God remains on the throne, but people have had their Biblical Worldviews stolen from them, Gladly, there is an easy solution. Go to a Biblical church that teaches straight, Biblical teachings, Attend, serve, learn, become discipled and then become a disciple-maker.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It is, woke culture is, anti–American. It is also very passionately anti–Christian. One such awakened member of the woke culture said most bluntly:“I hate Christianity as much as I hate America.”Why was never made clear. Wok–ers don't need reason for their hateful conclusions.They want the history of our great Country gone. They have destroyed monuments. They have introduced Critical Race Theory (CRT) which rewrites history. They are determined to train up children, new generations of young learners, in the WOKE WAY, and reading, writing and arithmetic, and history as we know it be damned. They constantly find ways to mock and disrespect our Founding Fathers, those who bled and died for this Country early on, fought for the freedoms WE THE PEOPLE now do little but take for granted. They are determined to destroy, eliminate or at least erode and water down our great Constitution. They care little for the RULE OF LAW unless it is for their benefit. They will do what they want to get what they want. They see racism as systemic, sexism and anti–LGBTQ attitudes and beliefs as fundamental and essentially not changeable, the Country economically imbalanced and unfair to minorities, they foster socialism or worse, even communism. But the bottom line is that these new progressives, radicals, socialists and revolutionaries, having found safe harbor in the Democratic Party are determined in the words of George Soros, the world's most evil man, to:BRING DOWN AMERICA!Destroy it in the words of the radical Saul Alinsky no matter what happens. America has always been a land which has honored, respected and protected the essential right of mankind:FREEDOM OF RELIGION.Progressives see America as a Christian nation and they are determined to destroy Christianity at the same time as they destroy America. They will use any means possible to accomplish that end. That includes violence wherever necessary. They wish to take control of government, institutions, legislatures and especially the courts. They wish to exercise complete power and rid the Country of any vestige of Christianity and for that matter, all things Judeo–Christian, other religions to follow. They want power, complete power. And, they are prepared to use the lie, destroy facts, say and do anything which will advance their cause. They do not believe that the vast majority of Americans who are decent, Christian, law–abiding citizens will fight back or for that matter, resist in any aggressive way. They know they can win because they will do anything to win. They can and will use any weapon necessary knowing that very few will fight back, believing that Christians will not fight the fight of faith at least with arms and counter–violence. They think that most Christians and even believers of other faiths would rather “come apart”, and “be separate” rather than fight. That is why they, the destroyers believe–know they can win and can ultimately destroy America. It is happening even now, step by step, mostly subtly, sometimes overtly. But their satanic, demonic, evil agenda goes on every day, EVERY DAY!They are determined to destroy the Constitution. God is in there, part of that, motivating that, the same in the Declaration of Independence. No more God and no more Constitution for them. That is so even though WE THE PEOPLE are a Christian majority, we are Judeo–Christian in the majority. We are PEOPLE OF FAITH, when all faiths are included. Perhaps as much as 75% of our great Country is comprised of citizens who are faithful, who believe in God. But this small minority of radical–progressives firmly believe they can conquer, control and dominate this super–majority. They will not rest, not ever until that vicious, satanic goal is accomplished. They are determined to destroy freedoms of all kinds, and especially Freedom of Religion. They will use the Alinsky, Saul Alinsky method and philosophy of utter destruction. Ironically embraced by Hillary Clinton and Barrack Obama. Funded by the satanic George Soros, they are intent upon destroying America:BRING AMERICA DOWN!There are specific reasons why they also hate Christianity. Progressives believe the BIBLE is nothing more than mythology. They also condemn the so–called violence of the Old Testament, the just God it reveals and portrays. They mock the fact that Jews and Christians for the most part consider the Bible to be infallible, the word of the living God Jehovah and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. They further mock the idea that the Bible is absolute truth and when the Gospels of the New Testament quote the words of Jesus Christ:“I am the way, the truth, and the life. No man or woman comes to the Father BUT BY ME.”Those words as HATE SPEECH, disrespectful of other religions and beliefs, and just plain wrong. So much for Christianity. These radicals find OFFENSIVE:THE CROSS.That a death brings about new life, eternal life, and is necessary for salvation, is hateful, exclusionary and of course for all such Alinsky–ites, just plain wrong. They resent the cross symbol on churches, and especially the people who wear the cross as a sign of their belief. That cross is OFFENSIVE to them and they are determined to eliminate the very symbol itself, and along with that, any and all constitutional:FREEDOM OF RELIGION.THE BLOOD. The blood of Jesus Christ shed for you on the cross, at Calvary is utterly offensive. They chafe at the notion that without the shedding of blood, there is no remission for sin. They mock Communion where Christians celebrate salvation in Jesus Christ and partake of the body and blood symbolically of Jesus Christ. They hate that celebration, that memorial, that living and saving experience with great passion and are determined to destroy it. THE RESURRECTION. To the radical–Soros–progressive–anti–Christian, the resurrection of Jesus Christ, the bodily resurrection is nothing more than mythology, and Easter celebration which they are determined to extinguish and the SON OF MAN, son of God at the heart thereof. But if Christ be not risen, then the faith of WE THE CHRISTIAN PEOPLE is in vain. Destroy the resurrection, destroy faith so say the progressives. SIN. The concept of sin really brings out the hatred, the passion of progressives in every way. That there is a moral God, with standards of morality, commandments and expectations is unthinkable and motivates a radical, atheistic progressive to do away with all things Christian. That is an ultimate goal of every angry–atheistic–Alinsky–ite!AND A DEVIL. A real devil, a Satan at work as an evil power in this world. Mythological, laughable. A fabrication. As with sin, there is no devil. There really is no evil in the world for them, but perhaps only men and women go on astray and in need of psychiatric or psychological help but nothing which any religion offers, NOTHING!AND HEAVEN AND HELL. This world for them, and no more. Nothing beyond. No heaven, nothing more than mythology at work, and no hell, more mythology. That there would be a place reserved for the Devil and his Angels is nothing more than a work of fiction, a scare tactic to make susceptible people fearful and consequently locked–in as believers. It won't happen, they say. And heaven the same, no more than vain, fairy–tale mythology designed to produce hope for believers when in fact, there is nothing beyond the grave, for radical–Alinsky–progressives, NOTHING! To talk about the wonders of heaven and eternal life, and eternal association with Jesus Christ is offensive, anger–producing and these anti–Christians and people of faith are determined to destroy that along with our beloved America. EUTHANASIA. They believe in so–called mercy killing even though scripture clearly warns against the sin–commandment of NOT KILLING. Others can kill if a person requests that so say the progressives, the radicals, the anti–life individuals. No fairy–tale God can tell them:“Thou shalt not kill.”If they, in their infinite human wisdom, decide that is the right thing to do. The anger builds and the determination to extinguish Christianity and in fact all religious faiths with it.THE NATURAL MAN. That man or woman hates Christianity, and all religion. There is no such thing as GOD. That person cannot be reached by testimony or witness, given over completely to the power of Satan, having become not only indifferent to but hateful of religion, determined to destroy it. The heart of the natural person is closed, the spirit of God gone and there is an ever–building resentment, turning to hatred and a resolve to destroy all things religious. That natural man is at the heart of the radical–hateful–progressive movement determined to destroy America and Christianity with it.THE GAY AGENDA: LGBTQIA. All things unnatural, non–biblical increase today dramatically. Gay and gay marriage is now recognized the nation over. No matter any biblical condemnation, or that of other religions as well (Islam), and the express condemnation of the unnatural person in both Old and New Testaments of the Bible, any number of people of faith, Judeo–Christian today accept the unnatural man and woman. So much of that acceptance, the Bible notwithstanding, occurs in both Catholic and Protestant churches. Any stand–up against all things unnatural is regarded as hateful, hate speech at work and is for this natural, radical, hateful progressive OFFENSIVE. AND ABORTION. There is no such thing as pro–choice. There is only pro–life or pro–death: abortion. Abortion is nothing more than the killing of a young human–being in the womb. It is biblically wrong, morally the same, and right–thinking men and women, whether of faith or not believe that abortion is just simply dead wrong. But that, and the laws now of some 24 states (about half of America) will permit baby killing to go on. And that is unbelievably offensive to the modern–day progressive and they will do whatever is necessary to keep the killing fields alive.AND EVANGELISM. Progressives hate witness and testimony about Jesus Christ, hate it with a passion. They are determined to end free speech especially as it applies to religion. They care nothing about the First Amendment and the rights, the inalienable rights it guarantees including religion, speech, press, assembly and petition and they are determined to confine Christianity to the four walls of a church, NO MORE! Christians share their faith as do other people of faith. They do so with words and deeds, a Constitutional right and freedom, necessary as a command of the savior (another offense) and the firstfruits of a born–again believer (another offense to progressives). Progressives want Christians to keep their faith to themselves (for now) and keep Christ out of the marketplace and the culture at large. In short, they wish the end of evangelism, of testimony, of testifying for faith in Christ or God in any other religion no matter the Constitution. To hear words about or see evidence of God, Jesus Christ or anything else religious is patently offensive and it must be eliminated by any means. The fight is on my fellow Christians, big time. It will last the rest of your life and mine! There is an anti–Christian, anti–American army of determined radical soldiers who will never stop, never quit until they accomplish their ultimate objective:THE DESTRUCTION OF AMERICA AND ALL THINGS CHRISTIAN! Again, I remind you that you are in this fight of faith, like it or not. You must decide how you will fight, with what weapons, spiritual or otherwise and you must do it NOW, NOW! You can't wait because they the enemy will not wait, not one day. They are at work even now whether you know it or not. Every waking moment of these radical, hateful, Soros–Alinsky disciples is dedicated to the destruction of America and Christianity. And that, I do fear, will happen unless you, YOU stand–up, fight back, resist, protect, be proactive, protect your freedoms as GOD would lead and direct you. More than ever, housewife, plain American person, God and Country need you more than ever, MORE THAN EVER! Never forget that the loss of basic freedoms including freedom of religion can be lost in one generation, a generation which exists even now. And, never forget the famous words of President Ronald Reagan:FREEDOMS ONCE LOST ARE LOST FOREVER!What will you do?

It is, woke culture is, anti–American. It is also very passionately anti–Christian. One such awakened member of the woke culture said most bluntly:“I hate Christianity as much as I hate America.”Why was never made clear. Wok–ers don't need reason for their hateful conclusions.They want the history of our great Country gone. They have destroyed monuments.

The blood of Jesus Christ shed for you on the cross, at Calvary is utterly offensive. They chafe at the notion that without the shedding of blood, there is no remission for sin. They mock Communion where Christians celebrate salvation in Jesus Christ and partake of the body and blood symbolically of Jesus Christ. They hate that celebration, that memorial, that living and saving experience with great passion and are determined to destroy it. THE RESURRECTION. To the radical–Soros–progressive–anti–Christian, the resurrection of Jesus Christ, the bodily resurrection is nothing more than mythology, and Easter celebration which they are determined to extinguish and the SON OF MAN, son of God at the heart thereof. But if Christ be not risen, then the faith of WE THE CHRISTIAN PEOPLE is in vain. Destroy the resurrection, destroy faith so say the progressives. SIN. The concept of sin really brings out the hatred, the passion of progressives in every way. That there is a moral God, with standards of morality, commandments and expectations is unthinkable and motivates a radical, atheistic progressive to do away with all things Christian. That is an ultimate goal of every angry–atheistic–Alinsky–ite!AND A DEVIL. A real devil, a Satan at work as an evil power in this world. Mythological, laughable. A fabrication. As with sin, there is no devil. There really is no evil in the world for them, but perhaps only men and women go on astray and in need of psychiatric or psychological help but nothing which any religion offers, NOTHING!AND HEAVEN AND HELL. This world for them, and no more. Nothing beyond. No heaven, nothing more than mythology at work, and no hell, more mythology. That there would be a place reserved for the Devil and his Angels is nothing more than a work of fiction, a scare tactic to make susceptible people fearful and consequently locked–in as believers. It won't happen, they say. And heaven the same, no more than vain, fairy–tale mythology designed to produce hope for believers when in fact, there is nothing beyond the grave, for radical–Alinsky–progressives, NOTHING! To talk about the wonders of heaven and eternal life, and eternal association with Jesus Christ is offensive, anger–producing and these anti–Christians and people of faith are determined to destroy that along with our beloved America. EUTHANASIA. They believe in so–called mercy killing even though scripture clearly warns against the sin–commandment of NOT KILLING. Others can kill if a person requests that so say the progressives, the radicals, the anti–life individuals. No fairy–tale God can tell them:“Thou shalt not kill.”If they, in their infinite human wisdom, decide that is the right thing to do. The anger builds and the determination to extinguish Christianity and in fact all religious faiths with it.THE NATURAL MAN. That man or woman hates Christianity, and all religion. There is no such thing as GOD. That person cannot be reached by testimony or witness, given over completely to the power of Satan, having become not only indifferent to but hateful of religion, determined to destroy it. The heart of the natural person is closed, the spirit of God gone and there is an ever–building resentment, turning to hatred and a resolve to destroy all things religious. That natural man is at the heart of the radical–hateful–progressive movement determined to destroy America and Christianity with it.THE GAY AGENDA: LGBTQIA. All things unnatural, non–biblical increase today dramatically. Gay and gay marriage is now recognized the nation over. No matter any biblical condemnation, or that of other religions as well (Islam), and the express condemnation of the unnatural person in both Old and New Testaments of the Bible, any number of people of faith, Judeo–Christian today accept the unnatural man and woman. So much of that acceptance, the Bible notwithstanding, occurs in both Catholic and Protestant churches. Any stand–up against all things unnatural is regarded as hateful, hate speech at work and is for this natural, radical, hateful progressive OFFENSIVE. AND ABORTION. There is no such thing as pro–choice. There is only pro–life or pro–death: abortion. Abortion is nothing more than the killing of a young human–being in the womb. It is biblically wrong, morally the same, and right–thinking men and women, whether of faith or not believe that abortion is just simply dead wrong. But that, and the laws now of some 24 states (about half of America) will permit baby killing to go on. And that is unbelievably offensive to the modern–day progressive and they will do whatever is necessary to keep the killing fields alive.AND EVANGELISM. Progressives hate witness and testimony about Jesus Christ, hate it with a passion. They are determined to end free speech especially as it applies to religion. They care nothing about the First Amendment and the rights, the inalienable rights it guarantees including religion, speech, press, assembly and petition and they are determined to confine Christianity to the four walls of a church, NO MORE! Christians share their faith as do other people of faith. They do so with words and deeds, a Constitutional right and freedom, necessary as a command of the savior (another offense) and the firstfruits of a born–again believer (another offense to progressives). Progressives want Christians to keep their faith to themselves (for now) and keep Christ out of the marketplace and the culture at large. In short, they wish the end of evangelism, of testimony, of testifying for faith in Christ or God in any other religion no matter the Constitution. To hear words about or see evidence of God, Jesus Christ or anything else religious is patently offensive and it must be eliminated by any means. The fight is on my fellow Christians, big time. It will last the rest of your life and mine! There is an anti–Christian, anti–American army of determined radical soldiers who will never stop, never quit until they accomplish their ultimate objective:THE DESTRUCTION OF AMERICA AND ALL THINGS CHRISTIAN! Again, I remind you that you are in this fight of faith, like it or not. You must decide how you will fight, with what weapons, spiritual or otherwise and you must do it NOW, NOW! You can't wait because they the enemy will not wait, not one day. They are at work even now whether you know it or not. Every waking moment of these radical, hateful, Soros–Alinsky disciples is dedicated to the destruction of America and Christianity. And that, I do fear, will happen unless you, YOU stand–up, fight back, resist, protect, be proactive, protect your freedoms as GOD would lead and direct you. More than ever, housewife, plain American person, God and Country need you more than ever, MORE THAN EVER! Never forget that the loss of basic freedoms including freedom of religion can be lost in one generation, a generation which exists even now. And, never forget the famous words of President Ronald Reagan:FREEDOMS ONCE LOST ARE LOST FOREVER!What will you do?

This two-part episode discusses the work of Saul Alinsky, the “dean of community organizing” and the different traditions and influences that shaped his democratic vision. The key texts discussed are his two books: “Reveille for Radicals” published in 1946, and his more well known latter book, “Rules for Radicals,” written in 1971. In this second part of the episode I to talk to Mike Miller. Mike started out in politics as part of the early stirrings of the student movement at UC Berkeley. From there he got involved in the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), doing work in Mississippi but mostly organizing support for SNCC on the West Coast. That led him to working with Cesar Chavez as part of the Farmworker Movement. Coming off of all of that he ends up as a community organizer based in San Francisco, his home town, but organizing in different locations around the US for many decades until his retirement. His move from SNCC to organizing in the Bay Area was catalyzed by meeting Saul Alinsky who recruited him to work for the Industrial Areas Foundation for a while. I talk to Mike about his relationship with Alinsky and what he thinks was Alinsky's understanding of democracy.  Towards the end, Mike reflects on the different pathways organizing took after Alinsky died. Along the way, he draws some contrasts between the different kinds of organizing he has been involved in over the years.Guest:Mike Miller was a leader in the pre-1960s birth of the student movement at UC Berkeley, a Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) field secretary, and director of a community organizing project initiated by Saul Alinsky. He has been a lead organizer, consultant, mentor and workshop leader in the field of community organizing over many decades. He has taught community organizing, social welfare, and urban politics at UC Berkeley, Stanford, Notre Dame, Lone Mountain, San Francisco State, University of Wisconsin/Milwaukee, and Hayward State. He has also written extensively on the subject and related matters in numerous magazines and journal articles. His books include “A Community Organizer's Tale: People and Power in San Francisco—the 1964 to 1972 story of the Mission Coalition Organization (MCO),” and most recently, a co-edited volume entitled “People Power: The Community Organizing Tradition of Saul Alinsky.” He currently directs the ORGANIZE Training Center: www.organizetrainingcenter.org

This two-part episode discusses the work of Saul Alinsky, the “dean of community organizing,” and the different traditions and influences that shaped his democratic vision. The key texts discussed are his two books: “Reveille for Radicals” published in 1946, and his more well known later book, “Rules for Radicals,” written in 1971. In this first part of this two part episode I discuss Alinsky, his writings, and his legacy with Amanda Tattersall. Amanda currently directs the Policy Lab at Sydney University. With a background in social movements as well as union organizing, she was inspired by reading Alinsky to set up Sydney Alliance, a community organizing coalition in her hometown. Since doing that, she has helped develop a number of other initiatives to craft creative, democratic responses to endemic problems.Guest:Amanda Tattersall is an Associate Professor at Sydney University and a community organiser. She established community organising in Australia founding the Sydney Alliance, and also co-founded GetUp Australia's largest digital campaigning organisation. She currently uses her community organising experience to lead relationship-driven research with the Sydney Policy Lab on issues like climate change and mental illness. She also hosts the ChangeMakers Podcast.  

In Revolutionary times, Thomas Paine said the following:“These are the times that try men's souls”.And indeed these are the times that try women's souls, some at least now that the United States Supreme Court has overturned Roe v. Wade. Thomas Jefferson admonished Americans of his time that the blood of patriots must be shed from time to time in order to refresh the tree of liberty. In short, the constitutional America of 1776 (Declaration of Independence) and the Constitutional America of 1787 needed new patriots, new passion, new commitments to liberty and freedom. Now more than ever that is true. The constitutional, rule of law, freedom–liberty America of old is not only under attack but becomes divided, angry and more violent by the day. Freedom and liberty we have always taken for granted are now all the more at risk and at stake.The patriot Patrick Henry provided a testimony applicable to all of us:“Give me liberty or give me death”.Henry was willing to die for freedom. He would live under no form of bondage. Oppression and bondage in his time was English. Today it comes internally from anarchists, that small virulent, violent minority which wishes the destruction of the greatest country on earth. Our fore fathers fought for freedom. They gave their blood then which we can assume made Jefferson proud. They gave us the greatest ruling document in the history of mankind, THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES. That incredible document contained the First Amendment which gave every American citizen the following rights and freedoms: Freedom of religion Freedom of speech Freedom of press Freedom of assembly Freedom of petitionGuaranteed, unconditional, unchanging, FOREVER FREEDOMS. Every one of those sacred, inalienable (God–given) rights and freedoms are at risk today, EVERY ONE! We the People seemed to have lost our vision, our understanding, even in some cases our desire to protect and preserve this incredible country. We have become indifferent to the struggles and problems we face. So many of us are ignorant of our history, and our Constitution, and our rule of law, and how we are governed. So many of us have withdrawn from the political process. As few as 10% will vote in some elections and perhaps no more than 60% of eligible, voting Americans will go to the polls in the most serious of elections. It has become tragic how We the People take democracy for granted. It is as though freedom will always be there no matter what we do. We the People are an easy target for violence and anarchism. One of the most anti–American Americans was one Saul Alinsky. In essence, Alinsky championed the destruction of everything, every institution, every tradition, anything and everything in America so that the country could be rebuilt and reestablished. The philosophy and beliefs of Alinksy were adopted by George Soros among others and the state of objective of Soros and others was to:BRING DOWN AMERICA.Bring it down. Destroy it. Rewrite its history. Do away with its Constitution and its rule of law. Get rid of the moral standards of the country today and especially the Judeo–Christian heritage and morality of the past. Do away with it completely! Beneath the violence, disrupt, and the lack of accountability today is this Alinsky model, the destruction of America, the destruction of everything which America holds dear. WOKE better serve to wake up America, defend itself, its values, morality and principles or all will be lost. WAKE UP AMERICANS, WAKE UP. The time may be near when the blood of real patriots will be required once again in America.We the People assume that we live in a democracy. We live by democratic principles, the core of which is freedom. That is true but our government is not a democracy. Our fore fathers who forged our Constitution were suspicious of democracy. They feared an intolerant majority. They created checks and balances which would prevent as much as possible the potentially crushing majority rule. They created for us a REPUBLIC. That of course consisted of a president, senate and house of representatives. It also consisted of an independent federal judiciary with the Supreme Court of essentially nine justices as final arbitrators of the rule of law. Such a republic respected democratic principles but it guarded so very well against abuse.Those founding fathers gave us the concept of federalism. That is, that each of the individual states of America, then 13 and now 50, would be protected, have rights not specifically granted to the federal government (Constitution Amendment X), and otherwise make certain that its people were protected, and larger states would have no real advantage over smaller ones. It was and continues to be a brilliant system and check and balance. The founding fathers gave us an electoral college where leaders were not elected by majority vote but by states according to their population.They gave us the rule of law, they gave us the Declaration of Independence, they gave us the Constitution, incredible documents with incredible freedoms, fully protected. They gave us all of this as a result of the blood of so many Revolutionary patriots shed in the cause of freedom. How tragic it is that we sit back and take those then given freedoms for granted, watch them whittle away daily, observe the indifference among younger generations and the beginning of the erosion and eventually the elimination of our great Country, its way of life and government. The great destroyers win, Alinsky, Soros, Sanders the socialist. They refuse, those anarchists and anti–Americans to work within the system for reform. They work for radical change and ultimate destruction. And, We the People sit back and watch it happen and in so many ways do nothing. Violence is everywhere. There are threats, intimidation, radicalism everywhere. A senator threatens a supreme court justice. Senator Schumer from New York threatened Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh as follows:You will pay the priceIf Roe is overturned. We are promised a summer of rage by JANE'S REVENGE. That means violence, firebombing, destruction, perhaps killing, Alinsky and Soros rage at work. We live in the age of post–Truth, as former president Barrack Hussein Obama told us where there really is no absolute truth of any kind, no morality and it is indeed a day and age of:ANYTHING GOES.It is simply unbelievable how seemingly everything America stands for, believes in, the fundamental structure of our great Country is not only under attack but is being destroyed day by day. History shows us that democracies as the foundation of government cannot last. Democracies in history last at or about 200 years. America is now 246 years young and We the People, our democracy, our great constitutional republic may be near the end. How I for one hope and pray that simply does not happen. The Constitution and its Amendments of the United States is the finest document, political governing document which mankind can produce. But it cannot last forever. Only one document can. And that is THE WORD OF THE LORD, the Holy Bible which gives us the world's only reliable ABSOLUTE TRUTH. The Constitution gives us the freedoms of mankind. The bible gives us heavenly freedoms, eternal freedoms, the ways of the Lord God Almighty, the most important freedom of all and the most important freedom of all, salvation in Jesus Christ. Man's democracy cannot last, but the democracy of peace and love of Jesus Christ will last forever. Human leaders, people, men and women, politicians and those in power can never last. The only person, leader, visionary, difference maker who can is Jesus of Nazareth, the Christ of Glory. That eternal leader will never fail. So, now in America violence reigns. Everything is under attack. The spiritual warfare has begun. The:FIGHT OF FAITH IS HERE AND NOW!So, my fellow Americans, my fellow Christians, how will you fight this fight of faith? HOW? Put on for sure the armor of the Lord. And the helmet of salvation. And the breastplate of righteousness and be ready for the spiritual war. It is here, IT IS HERE. You will be called upon to defend your faith with everything you have. If you truly believe as a Christian and you will not compromise, you will take on a danger you never have before. How will you respond? Will you stand up to violence? Would you use any means at your disposable to protect your family, your friends and yourself from violence? You will engage in prayer, more prayer perhaps than ever before. But you will be called upon to ACT, and perhaps act returning violence for violence. Would you do that? We the People, we Christians have choices to make we never have before. In prayer, may our Lord lead us to the right decisions for God, and Country, and family, and all human kind. Freedom, inalienable rights, God–given rights, are of the most value, the most important to all. Don't lose them or lose life in the process. May God bless you, my fellow Americans as you energize the courage to stand for Christ, for Christianity and for the greatest Country in the history of mankind.Always remember. FREEDOM ONCE LOST IS LOST FOREVER!

THE THESIS: The smart people doing evil are employing useful-idiots in an reverse Alinsky and the patterns is the same with Covid-19 and Putin-19. From Rules for Radicals: Pick a target, isolate it, cut it off from its support base. Never let your opponent strategize; never let them rest. Now, the reverse version: Pick a hero. Deify him. Isolate anyone who questions him, cut them off from their support base.
