00:00:30.000 This is what happens when the fourth turning meets fifth generation warfare.
00:00:40.600 A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran.
00:00:47.260 This is Human Events with your host, Jack Posobiec.
00:00:50.200 Deliver us from evil.
00:00:51.920 This is what happens when the fourth turning meets fifth generation warfare.
00:01:00.000 A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran.
00:01:07.680 This is Human Events with your host, Jack Posobiec.
00:01:10.600 Deliver us from evil.
00:01:12.280 Do not make peace with evil.
00:01:41.760 Destroy it.
00:01:42.760 Destroy it.
00:01:49.300 I'm done trying to make peace with these people.
00:01:53.180 I'm done trying.
00:01:56.240 Because you know what?
00:01:57.120 We've tried.
00:01:58.220 We've tried for so many years.
00:02:02.360 We said we're going to be tolerant.
00:02:04.520 We said we're going to be accepting.
00:02:09.260 We said we're going to be liberal.
00:02:12.980 You know what?
00:02:14.040 I'm done with all of it.
00:02:16.020 I think it's time for a healthy dose of illiberalism.
00:02:20.600 Are you with me, folks?
00:02:21.920 Yeah.
00:02:22.420 It's time for a healthy dose of reminding them who we are.
00:02:30.100 Because we know who they are.
00:02:32.140 But, folks, it's time to talk about who we are.
00:02:37.920 We are the men and women of the United States of America.
00:02:42.720 We are the ancestors.
00:02:43.820 Our ancestors are the ones who built this country with their grit, with their determination, with their blood, sweat, and tears.
00:02:51.780 And, by God, I am not going to let them people take this country from us.
00:03:01.240 We have come too far.
00:03:03.800 And we have been pushing this for too long to just roll over and give up.
00:03:10.200 I don't know how to give up.
00:03:11.900 I don't know how to quit.
00:03:13.260 I don't know how to surrender.
00:03:14.880 I don't know how to make peace with evil.
00:03:17.300 I don't know how to roll over and die and just take it.
00:03:20.740 It's not in my DNA and it's not in our DNA.
00:03:23.960 They want you to forget our history.
00:03:26.760 They want you to forget our heritage.
00:03:28.660 They want you to forget who we are.
00:03:31.440 They want to tell you.
00:03:32.800 They want to tell you that there's something wrong with you because you pray to Almighty God.
00:03:39.460 They want to tell you that there's something wrong with you because your skin is too white.
00:03:45.700 They're going to tell you that there's something wrong with you because you're too talented.
00:03:50.180 because you have too much ambition,
00:03:52.580 because you're too male,
00:03:54.740 because you've got male.
00:03:56.420 You know something?
00:03:59.180 And I say this to all the guys.
00:04:00.860 I think it's about time
00:04:01.960 we start bringing the patriarchy back.
00:04:04.260 I think it's time we start bringing back
00:04:06.860 a little bit of the patriarchy.
00:04:08.700 I'm not saying complete to the ladies.
00:04:10.500 We love the ladies, folks.
00:04:11.580 We love the ladies.
00:04:12.300 But I'm saying we need a little bit more balance.
00:04:15.420 You know what I'm talking about?
00:04:16.580 We need a little bit more balance.
00:04:18.260 We've tried the matriarchy out for a little bit.
00:04:20.700 They tried to go a little bit too far
00:04:22.340 because they wanted to put Hillary Clinton up there.
00:04:24.680 But someone intervene with that.
00:04:28.080 And I do believe, I do believe, right,
00:04:31.700 we are demonizing men in this country
00:04:34.680 and all across the West.
00:04:36.540 We are demonizing, specifically white Christian men.
00:04:40.800 And I say to my two little boys,
00:04:43.840 my two little white Christian boys,
00:04:48.260 who have never done anything to anyone,
00:04:52.020 you tell me why they should have to work
00:04:54.940 twice as hard as anybody else
00:04:57.620 because of the color of their skin
00:04:59.460 or the fact that they believe in God
00:05:01.420 or their gender.
00:05:02.700 No, I'm done with all of it
00:05:04.580 and I'm not making peace with these people ever again.
00:05:07.100 I can't do it.
00:05:14.600 I can't, and I won't do it for them.
00:05:16.420 And I say this to all the Turning Point students as well.
00:05:19.260 I'm sick of it.
00:05:19.900 And I'm sick of apologizing for the West.
00:05:22.560 Why should we apologize for creating the modern world?
00:05:26.840 Why should we apologize for creating technology,
00:05:30.040 for building the cities,
00:05:31.500 for exploring the stars?
00:05:33.320 We're not apologizing for it.
00:05:35.340 In fact, it's time we start celebrating it.
00:05:38.080 It's time we start celebrating who we are,
00:05:41.620 where we came from,
00:05:42.940 the institutions that we have built
00:05:45.080 and fought for, the wars we've won,
00:05:47.440 and we're not apologizing for who we are.
00:05:50.040 We are the Western civilization.
00:05:52.120 We are the inheritors of it.
00:05:53.420 And it's time we start acting like it.
00:05:56.220 The West is the best,
00:05:58.300 and they are not going to take our civilization from us.
00:06:08.040 What can I say, folks?
00:06:09.520 I'm a little energetic this morning.
00:06:11.480 Maybe because I slept on a MyPillow last night.
00:06:17.680 Promo code POSO.
00:06:20.220 Never Tanya.
00:06:21.320 No promo code.
00:06:22.000 Do we have any promo code Tanya people here?
00:06:24.120 All right.
00:06:24.760 No, come on.
00:06:25.580 I'm surrounded by treachery.
00:06:26.980 Treachery and wickedness and tiny.
00:06:28.880 My own wife, my own wife,
00:06:30.760 turning my own promo code against me.
00:06:32.360 But I got to say, we do it.
00:06:33.720 And she turns to me.
00:06:34.580 She says, oh, I thought you were a capitalist.
00:06:39.780 She's good.
00:06:40.400 What can I say?
00:06:40.980 She's good.
00:06:41.360 I'll keep her around.
00:06:42.060 I think I'll keep her around.
00:06:42.960 But folks, that's the beauty of it, right?
00:06:45.480 That's the beauty of America.
00:06:47.320 That's the beauty of the West,
00:06:48.480 the beauty of our ideals.
00:06:50.060 They will sit there and tell you everything wrong,
00:06:53.220 every little mistake,
00:06:54.300 every little, every time you forgot to cross an I,
00:06:58.040 or, you know, it's good, cross an I.
00:06:59.480 Dot an I, cross a T.
00:07:01.620 They'll go through everything like that,
00:07:02.720 but they will forget.
00:07:04.060 They will forget the amazing things
00:07:06.240 that the West has done
00:07:07.580 and that the West has built.
00:07:10.080 They will turn around,
00:07:11.820 and they will tell you
00:07:12.940 that it's not the West that did this,
00:07:15.100 and it wasn't the fact
00:07:16.220 that our country was based
00:07:18.280 on a simple set of principles.
00:07:20.660 We have the Constitution.
00:07:23.060 We have the Declaration,
00:07:24.440 but that is not where the principles came from.
00:07:27.380 The Constitution and the Declaration of Independence
00:07:29.760 were enshrining the principles
00:07:34.320 of the Holy Bible,
00:07:37.220 which were handed to us
00:07:39.080 and given to us by Almighty God.
00:07:43.340 And it's as simple as that, folks.
00:07:45.500 It's as simple as that.
00:07:46.720 And they tell you,
00:07:50.220 they tell you
00:07:51.660 that if you want to stand up for those things,
00:07:54.460 that you're acting like a dictator.
00:07:56.460 Like a dictator, right?
00:07:57.580 That's the word that they keep saying all the time now.
00:08:00.260 It's a dictator.
00:08:01.000 It's a dictator.
00:08:01.700 So let me go through the list of things
00:08:03.300 that a dictator might do.
00:08:05.180 I say, oh, a dictator.
00:08:06.420 You mean like locking up your political opposition?
00:08:09.680 Like banning your political opposition online?
00:08:12.620 You mean like investigating the church
00:08:15.420 with your secret police?
00:08:17.700 You mean like starting wars that can't be finished?
00:08:21.180 You mean like corrupting yourself
00:08:23.760 and enriching yourself
00:08:24.960 through the corruption of your family,
00:08:28.120 your family members?
00:08:29.900 You mean a dictator like that?
00:08:31.860 By the way,
00:08:32.460 I'm not talking about Joe Biden.
00:08:34.280 I'm talking about Vladimir Zelensky.
00:08:36.080 Oops.
00:08:41.960 Oops.
00:08:42.580 You know,
00:08:43.220 you know,
00:08:43.540 they said,
00:08:44.100 they said back in,
00:08:45.780 in 1963,
00:08:47.360 they told,
00:08:47.860 or they said,
00:08:48.620 they said,
00:08:49.040 you know,
00:08:49.240 in the future,
00:08:50.080 we'll have levitating cars.
00:08:52.520 But it turns out
00:08:53.760 that today,
00:08:54.640 the only thing Democrats are levitating
00:08:56.600 are their own staffers
00:08:58.060 on the Senate floor.
00:09:01.240 Shots fired.
00:09:02.920 Look,
00:09:03.820 look,
00:09:04.420 we've seen what they've done.
00:09:07.880 Right?
00:09:08.680 The American shaman,
00:09:10.060 by the way,
00:09:10.780 is here this weekend
00:09:11.800 at America Fest.
00:09:12.700 Did you see the American shaman?
00:09:16.200 He's here in full garb.
00:09:18.560 He's got the horns back on,
00:09:20.020 folks.
00:09:20.580 You know,
00:09:20.840 he hasn't had the horns on.
00:09:21.980 The horns are back.
00:09:23.760 The horns are back.
00:09:28.240 And I asked him,
00:09:29.340 I remember,
00:09:30.100 I said to him,
00:09:30.780 so I got to interview
00:09:31.940 the American shaman
00:09:33.080 for the very first interview
00:09:34.840 that he's done
00:09:35.500 with the horns on,
00:09:36.880 with his patriotic,
00:09:38.220 his entire getup.
00:09:39.920 And I said,
00:09:40.660 why did you put the horns back on?
00:09:42.340 What was it, Jake?
00:09:43.580 What made you want
00:09:45.080 to put them back on now?
00:09:46.760 You know what he said to me?
00:09:48.560 He said,
00:09:49.220 Jack,
00:09:49.480 because it's time.
00:09:51.060 It's time.
00:09:52.680 This is the time
00:09:54.640 as we stand
00:09:55.760 at the precipice,
00:09:57.080 the precipice
00:09:58.320 of 2024,
00:09:59.760 going into
00:10:01.860 what we know
00:10:02.820 will be one
00:10:03.440 of the greatest challenges
00:10:04.640 our nation
00:10:05.500 has ever faced,
00:10:07.000 and dare I say,
00:10:07.820 our civilization
00:10:08.500 has ever faced.
00:10:10.420 If we want
00:10:11.560 to continue
00:10:12.700 the West,
00:10:13.960 we must
00:10:14.760 attain
00:10:15.560 victory
00:10:16.320 for our values
00:10:17.340 and principles
00:10:18.040 in 2024.
00:10:20.100 And I say,
00:10:21.380 I say it this way.
00:10:22.760 They say
00:10:25.860 when Alexander the Great,
00:10:28.140 right,
00:10:28.380 one of the greatest
00:10:29.220 warriors
00:10:30.420 and leaders
00:10:31.400 of all time,
00:10:33.820 they say right before
00:10:34.800 he marched
00:10:36.120 into the Persian Empire
00:10:37.260 that he held
00:10:38.940 a massive banquet.
00:10:41.040 He's in Anatolia.
00:10:42.020 Now,
00:10:42.180 this was Turkey today.
00:10:43.420 It was Anatolia then,
00:10:44.560 the Greek Empire.
00:10:46.600 And he brought together
00:10:47.920 all of his lieutenants
00:10:48.980 and all of his generals.
00:10:50.280 And they called it
00:10:52.500 the Gathering
00:10:53.080 of the Macedonians.
00:10:56.400 And he said,
00:10:57.440 tonight we dine,
00:10:58.520 for tomorrow we march.
00:11:01.760 Well,
00:11:02.260 I see before me
00:11:03.860 here today
00:11:05.100 gathered in Arizona
00:11:07.020 at Turning Point
00:11:07.860 America Fest
00:11:08.900 a gathering
00:11:10.140 of Macedonians
00:11:11.820 today.
00:11:12.960 You are
00:11:13.640 the modern-day
00:11:14.700 Macedonians.
00:11:16.340 You are
00:11:17.120 the modern-day
00:11:18.280 political warriors.
00:11:19.940 You are
00:11:20.540 the modern-day
00:11:21.440 spiritual warriors,
00:11:23.580 for we are
00:11:24.040 in a spiritual
00:11:25.520 battle.
00:11:26.460 And I say to you
00:11:27.440 here at America Fest,
00:11:29.820 tonight we dine,
00:11:31.440 tomorrow we march
00:11:32.980 into Persia.
00:11:35.360 Are you ready?
00:11:38.660 Are you ready
00:11:39.740 to fight?
00:11:40.220 And I'll tell you
00:11:44.260 something else.
00:11:45.860 You remember those,
00:11:47.060 you remember those
00:11:49.080 church moms
00:11:50.320 back in the 1980s,
00:11:52.340 all the church moms
00:11:53.740 out there
00:11:54.440 who were warning
00:11:55.800 about the direction
00:11:57.140 of our country.
00:11:58.340 They said,
00:11:59.180 our country
00:11:59.620 is becoming demonic.
00:12:00.900 They said,
00:12:01.280 our country
00:12:01.660 is becoming Satan.
00:12:02.600 They all warned us,
00:12:03.500 all those church moms
00:12:04.680 in the 1980s.
00:12:06.040 And what did
00:12:06.560 the establishment say?
00:12:07.560 The establishment
00:12:08.500 told them to shut up.
00:12:10.240 The establishment
00:12:10.800 told them to pipe down.
00:12:12.700 They said,
00:12:13.080 be quiet.
00:12:14.520 They said,
00:12:15.360 we don't need
00:12:16.480 to worry about you,
00:12:17.620 you church moms
00:12:18.480 in the 1980s.
00:12:20.080 Well,
00:12:20.660 let me tell you
00:12:21.120 something.
00:12:22.740 We're the sons
00:12:24.020 and daughters
00:12:24.840 of those church moms
00:12:26.460 of the 1980s.
00:12:28.000 Now you got something
00:12:29.220 to worry about.
00:12:30.140 because you will
00:12:32.860 not tell us
00:12:33.580 to shut up.
00:12:37.360 And they raised us.
00:12:39.000 Now you got a problem.
00:12:42.340 And because when we see
00:12:43.960 the celebration
00:12:45.460 of the demonic,
00:12:46.960 when we see
00:12:47.520 the celebration
00:12:48.240 of the Satanic
00:12:49.420 on public display,
00:12:53.520 in after school programs,
00:12:56.340 in public meeting halls,
00:12:59.820 and even
00:13:01.180 the Iowa state
00:13:03.500 capital
00:13:04.380 with a statue
00:13:07.120 of Satan
00:13:09.760 and a ritual altar
00:13:11.580 to Satan
00:13:12.780 on public display,
00:13:14.940 I say,
00:13:17.400 I say,
00:13:19.240 I can't
00:13:20.200 tolerate evil
00:13:21.540 anymore.
00:13:22.760 And someone has
00:13:23.840 to do something
00:13:24.640 about this.
00:13:25.440 Well,
00:13:30.040 I got a little
00:13:30.640 surprise for you,
00:13:31.960 America Fest,
00:13:33.620 because someone
00:13:34.780 did do something
00:13:36.800 about that.
00:13:38.180 And that someone
00:13:39.940 is here today,
00:13:42.820 all the way
00:13:43.820 from Des Moines,
00:13:45.180 Iowa,
00:13:46.000 ladies and gentlemen,
00:13:47.480 Michael Cassidy.
00:13:48.820 Let's hear it again
00:14:12.480 from Michael Cassidy.
00:14:13.560 How many of y'all
00:14:23.140 agree with me
00:14:25.020 that our country
00:14:26.340 should reject
00:14:27.700 the devil?
00:14:32.560 How many of y'all
00:14:34.040 agree with me
00:14:35.000 that our nation
00:14:36.860 should honor
00:14:37.880 God?
00:14:38.840 If you
00:14:47.480 are a Christian,
00:14:50.260 please do not
00:14:51.960 be ashamed
00:14:52.900 of your faith.
00:14:54.340 The world
00:14:55.500 tells us
00:14:56.380 to be ashamed
00:14:57.280 of our faith.
00:14:58.700 The world
00:14:59.320 teaches us
00:15:00.500 to keep
00:15:01.460 that light
00:15:02.320 under the bushel.
00:15:04.080 That's not
00:15:04.840 what Jesus
00:15:05.360 tells us
00:15:05.980 to do,
00:15:06.380 though.
00:15:06.580 Jesus tells us
00:15:08.720 to not be ashamed
00:15:09.620 of him
00:15:10.040 and of his
00:15:10.600 words.
00:15:12.320 This is what
00:15:13.100 I want to come
00:15:14.200 from this moment.
00:15:15.060 I want Christians
00:15:15.880 to reinvigorate
00:15:17.540 their faith.
00:15:18.800 I want you
00:15:19.260 to talk
00:15:19.820 to your fellow
00:15:21.100 Christians,
00:15:22.560 get them
00:15:23.000 into church,
00:15:23.800 get involved
00:15:24.360 in church,
00:15:25.220 into the non-Christians
00:15:26.280 out there.
00:15:27.460 Talk to your fellow
00:15:28.340 Christians,
00:15:28.900 your friends.
00:15:29.940 Figure out
00:15:30.500 why do we believe
00:15:31.760 what we believe?
00:15:33.120 Why do we have
00:15:33.820 such passion
00:15:34.660 that we
00:15:35.780 are unwilling,
00:15:37.800 that we are
00:15:38.280 willing to
00:15:39.640 risk jail,
00:15:41.880 to risk
00:15:42.620 our jobs
00:15:44.360 in order
00:15:45.760 that the devil
00:15:47.460 is not tolerated?
00:15:50.140 Not again.
00:15:51.600 No.
00:15:52.400 No.
00:15:53.860 Michael,
00:15:54.880 tell us
00:15:57.260 just briefly,
00:15:59.080 what was it like
00:16:00.060 when you walked
00:16:01.120 into the Iowa
00:16:01.880 State Capitol
00:16:02.660 and you saw
00:16:04.120 before you
00:16:04.920 at Christmastime
00:16:06.620 that statue
00:16:07.920 and that altar?
00:16:10.220 It was an
00:16:10.940 abomination.
00:16:13.840 I was surprised.
00:16:15.100 There's almost
00:16:15.560 nobody,
00:16:16.460 there's one man
00:16:17.380 in there.
00:16:18.040 I would have thought
00:16:18.720 that there would have
00:16:19.300 been, you know,
00:16:20.280 a politician
00:16:20.900 to yell at,
00:16:21.800 to say,
00:16:22.060 hey man,
00:16:22.420 take this down,
00:16:23.680 security guard
00:16:24.680 or something,
00:16:25.080 but there is
00:16:25.540 nobody there.
00:16:26.400 It was just
00:16:26.800 that evil statue
00:16:27.900 that was there
00:16:29.200 to influence
00:16:30.440 families,
00:16:31.080 to influence
00:16:31.580 children.
00:16:32.640 One of the bits
00:16:33.300 of hate mail
00:16:33.900 that I got
00:16:34.400 actually after this
00:16:35.340 was from an
00:16:35.940 Iowa father
00:16:36.740 and he told me
00:16:39.720 that he was mad
00:16:40.600 at me for doing
00:16:41.520 what I did
00:16:42.180 because he could
00:16:43.040 not show his
00:16:43.720 daughter the
00:16:44.900 satanic icon
00:16:46.060 at the state
00:16:46.980 capital.
00:16:48.340 How far has
00:16:49.640 our nation fallen
00:16:50.820 if that is the
00:16:53.620 kind of mentality
00:16:54.500 that we have
00:16:55.240 from people,
00:16:55.880 from men and
00:16:56.360 women in our
00:16:57.260 country today?
00:16:58.020 And that's
00:16:58.960 another thing
00:16:59.540 that I want
00:17:00.020 to come from
00:17:00.500 this is for
00:17:00.940 people to wake
00:17:01.740 up, for us
00:17:03.060 to wake up
00:17:03.660 to understand
00:17:04.420 that there is
00:17:05.240 evil in the
00:17:05.820 world.
00:17:06.060 The devil is
00:17:06.800 real and we
00:17:07.960 can't ignore
00:17:08.540 him.
00:17:09.120 The Satanists,
00:17:10.180 they may think
00:17:10.880 it's a game,
00:17:11.540 they may think
00:17:12.000 it's just a big
00:17:12.640 joke to, you
00:17:13.280 know, trigger
00:17:13.800 us, but the
00:17:15.420 devil's real
00:17:16.100 and we have to
00:17:17.480 be wary of
00:17:18.020 him.
00:17:19.600 Amen.
00:17:22.340 And you
00:17:22.880 notice what he
00:17:23.480 said.
00:17:24.180 You notice
00:17:24.840 what the man
00:17:25.360 said.
00:17:26.800 They always
00:17:27.980 target the
00:17:29.400 children.
00:17:30.380 They always
00:17:31.500 go for the
00:17:32.580 children, the
00:17:34.800 youngest among
00:17:35.880 us, whether
00:17:36.920 it's for the
00:17:38.440 drag queen story
00:17:39.840 hours, whether
00:17:41.260 it's satanic
00:17:42.660 ritual worship,
00:17:44.440 or worse.
00:17:46.420 And if you've
00:17:46.820 seen the movie
00:17:47.400 Sound of Freedom,
00:17:48.740 you may know.
00:17:49.680 which, by the
00:17:52.860 way, you
00:17:54.420 guys don't
00:17:54.760 mind if I drop
00:17:55.720 some receipts
00:17:56.360 while I'm here,
00:17:56.920 do you?
00:17:58.140 Sound of Freedom,
00:18:00.300 they just posted
00:18:01.880 their latest box
00:18:03.200 office number,
00:18:04.580 $250 million
00:18:07.160 worldwide.
00:18:08.280 It is now the
00:18:13.100 number one movie
00:18:15.100 of the entire
00:18:16.120 year.
00:18:17.300 Number one.
00:18:21.300 And it's very
00:18:22.420 simple, folks.
00:18:23.960 God's children
00:18:25.220 are not for sale.
00:18:29.800 Not in the
00:18:30.740 Iowa state
00:18:31.400 capital, not on
00:18:33.000 the border, not in
00:18:34.580 Ukraine with the
00:18:35.460 organ trafficking
00:18:36.320 and the child
00:18:36.960 trafficking.
00:18:37.920 No.
00:18:38.500 It is time for
00:18:40.000 Christians to
00:18:41.860 rise up and
00:18:43.160 fight back.
00:18:44.920 It's time.
00:18:47.040 And I said when
00:18:48.340 this happened in
00:18:48.960 the Iowa state
00:18:49.680 capital, I've got
00:18:50.960 to say, not only
00:18:53.000 did God send a
00:18:54.980 fellow Navy man,
00:18:56.380 but God sent an
00:18:57.920 Irishman.
00:19:02.620 Michael, what
00:19:03.680 would your
00:19:04.140 message be to
00:19:06.300 those out there?
00:19:07.120 And we just have
00:19:07.580 a few closing
00:19:08.220 minutes.
00:19:09.460 What would your
00:19:10.000 message be to
00:19:10.880 those who say
00:19:11.800 that we need to
00:19:12.920 be tolerant, we
00:19:13.900 need to be
00:19:14.280 accepting the
00:19:15.100 blessings of
00:19:15.680 liberty, the
00:19:16.140 First Amendment?
00:19:17.080 What would your
00:19:17.660 message be to
00:19:18.880 that?
00:19:20.280 First of all,
00:19:22.080 there is no
00:19:22.800 equivalency between
00:19:23.880 God and the
00:19:25.460 devil.
00:19:26.200 They are the
00:19:27.340 polar opposites.
00:19:28.800 And we should not
00:19:30.000 listen to those who
00:19:31.240 tell us that
00:19:33.040 Satan and
00:19:35.260 Jesus Christ,
00:19:36.840 that they're the
00:19:37.420 same.
00:19:39.000 So those are the,
00:19:40.360 that's the big
00:19:41.140 thing, is that it's
00:19:42.600 easy to come up
00:19:44.320 with, you know,
00:19:45.560 big logical
00:19:46.540 arguments one way
00:19:47.480 or the other.
00:19:48.720 But at its simple
00:19:49.880 core, it really is
00:19:51.020 this simple.
00:19:52.020 God is great, the
00:19:53.200 devil is evil, and
00:19:54.200 we should reject
00:19:54.920 him.
00:19:55.380 Reject the devil.
00:19:55.980 Amen.
00:19:56.260 Amen.
00:19:57.620 Well, let's close
00:19:58.540 with that, folks.
00:20:00.380 As we like to say
00:20:01.300 at the church I go
00:20:02.220 to, ladies and
00:20:03.620 gentlemen, do you
00:20:04.760 reject Satan and
00:20:06.380 all his works?
00:20:08.160 Yes.
00:20:11.360 Are you prepared
00:20:12.620 to do battle on
00:20:13.800 the spiritual plane?
00:20:15.560 Yes.
00:20:17.540 Are you prepared
00:20:18.880 to put on the
00:20:20.120 full armor of
00:20:21.880 God?
00:20:22.760 Yes.
00:20:23.160 Are you prepared
00:20:29.240 to go up with
00:20:30.640 the sword of
00:20:31.440 St. Michael the
00:20:32.280 Archangel leading
00:20:33.440 us into that
00:20:34.480 battle?
00:20:37.820 Are you prepared
00:20:39.220 to defend the
00:20:40.240 Constitution, the
00:20:41.440 Declaration, our
00:20:42.700 ancestors, our
00:20:44.440 heritage, and our
00:20:45.500 American nation?
00:20:50.000 Are you prepared
00:20:51.120 to go all the way?
00:20:53.160 Are you prepared
00:20:55.180 to do what must
00:20:55.980 be done?
00:20:58.440 Ladies and
00:20:59.100 gentlemen, I tell
00:20:59.700 you right now,
00:21:00.600 when I see this
00:21:01.560 army of Macedonians
00:21:02.820 before me, we
00:21:04.160 will win.
00:21:05.940 Yes.
00:21:11.440 Yeah, man.
00:21:12.260 Thank you.
00:21:19.720 Well, ladies and
00:21:20.640 gentlemen, welcome
00:21:21.180 here to part two of
00:21:22.780 this episode.
00:21:23.640 I got to tell you,
00:21:24.540 this year's America
00:21:25.660 Fest, and I've been
00:21:26.620 going to America
00:21:27.320 Fests, and really
00:21:28.580 just Turning Point
00:21:29.140 events in general,
00:21:30.100 for years at this
00:21:31.400 point, probably five,
00:21:32.540 six years now, and
00:21:33.900 I've seen these
00:21:34.800 events grow from
00:21:36.300 student-led and
00:21:38.340 student-driven,
00:21:38.840 well, really it was
00:21:39.800 student-only to begin
00:21:41.020 with, but now they've
00:21:42.240 grown, they've become
00:21:43.160 all-encompassing.
00:21:44.800 This really is an
00:21:46.540 action conference,
00:21:48.020 because we're putting
00:21:49.200 together action, not
00:21:50.700 just for ourselves,
00:21:52.640 not just for our
00:21:53.640 organization, but here
00:21:55.860 this year, going into
00:21:57.520 2024, all of the
00:21:59.480 action, all of the
00:22:00.500 energy, all of the
00:22:01.660 planning, and all of
00:22:02.980 the warnings, right?
00:22:04.600 In the intelligence
00:22:05.540 community, we used to
00:22:06.360 say, I and W, what are
00:22:07.920 the indications and
00:22:09.100 warnings, the indications
00:22:10.100 and warnings of what's
00:22:11.620 to come ahead?
00:22:12.780 That was my job every
00:22:13.800 day, and that's what we
00:22:15.040 do here at America
00:22:16.240 Fest.
00:22:16.740 If I have any role at
00:22:18.180 Turning Point, I would
00:22:19.200 say, that's what I try
00:22:20.320 to do with the team, is
00:22:21.540 just pay attention to
00:22:22.700 what's on the waterfront,
00:22:24.060 what's coming over the
00:22:25.460 horizon, not for the
00:22:26.820 organization, but for our
00:22:28.480 country, for our way of
00:22:31.120 life, because it's
00:22:32.620 ultimately about our
00:22:33.740 children, and
00:22:35.000 unfortunately, when I
00:22:36.340 look at our country,
00:22:38.020 there are not only
00:22:39.480 threats to our way of
00:22:40.720 life, and people say,
00:22:41.620 oh, the enemies are
00:22:42.240 abroad, but I look at
00:22:43.500 what's going on
00:22:44.240 internally in our
00:22:45.360 country, and there's
00:22:47.120 certain things that I
00:22:48.160 just can't tolerate
00:22:49.860 because they're just
00:22:51.100 not right, and I talk
00:22:52.940 about it every day.
00:22:54.420 Well, I wanted to
00:22:55.220 introduce you to another
00:22:56.760 guy who also saw
00:22:58.680 something that he
00:22:59.720 thought was just not
00:23:00.800 right down at the
00:23:02.480 Iowa State Capitol
00:23:03.540 when they put up a
00:23:05.240 statue of Satan, and
00:23:07.880 God sent one man, an
00:23:09.980 Irishman, of course,
00:23:12.460 named Michael Cassidy
00:23:14.020 to do something about
00:23:15.240 it.
00:23:15.420 Michael joins us now
00:23:16.500 here on Human Events
00:23:17.700 Daily.
00:23:18.320 Thank you so much.
00:23:19.300 Jack, thanks for
00:23:19.760 having me.
00:23:20.760 And if I could just
00:23:22.200 say, on behalf of my
00:23:24.680 family and just
00:23:25.560 everybody out there,
00:23:26.800 thank you for what you
00:23:27.580 did.
00:23:28.020 Thank you.
00:23:29.000 So walk us through it.
00:23:30.800 You hear about the
00:23:31.980 statue, you see it on
00:23:33.260 social media, media,
00:23:34.980 what made, what went on
00:23:37.520 in your mind that made
00:23:38.420 you want to do
00:23:39.020 something about this?
00:23:39.860 You know, at first I
00:23:42.180 saw it, and I couldn't
00:23:43.820 believe it.
00:23:44.780 I mean, a statue of
00:23:45.900 Satan in our government
00:23:47.840 in a Capitol building.
00:23:49.240 I thought it was
00:23:49.940 Babylon B.
00:23:50.980 Yeah.
00:23:51.400 I'm like, I wanted to
00:23:53.240 text Seth Dillon and be
00:23:54.220 like, is this, did you
00:23:55.540 guys do like a funny,
00:23:56.860 like, is this a prank?
00:23:58.320 Yeah.
00:23:58.740 And it wasn't a prank.
00:24:00.540 It was a real statue of
00:24:03.020 Satan.
00:24:03.620 And, you know, the
00:24:05.040 Satanists, I think they,
00:24:06.380 some of them may think
00:24:07.480 it's just a joke, that
00:24:09.040 they're just trying to
00:24:10.080 troll people, but the
00:24:11.840 devil's real.
00:24:13.180 And, you know, there
00:24:13.640 are kids, there are
00:24:15.180 families that are up in
00:24:16.380 the Iowa State Capitol
00:24:17.460 seeing a statue of
00:24:19.700 Satan, and that's
00:24:20.600 wrong.
00:24:21.100 And so it struck me,
00:24:22.880 again, as wrong.
00:24:25.120 I assumed that it would
00:24:27.080 not be up for much
00:24:29.260 longer, that, you know,
00:24:30.360 the people that put it
00:24:31.300 up would say, we made
00:24:33.100 a mistake, we're sorry,
00:24:34.060 we, we should, this
00:24:35.720 was an oversight, and
00:24:37.160 they would have gotten,
00:24:37.940 they would have gotten
00:24:38.500 rid of it.
00:24:39.740 I saw on Wednesday that
00:24:42.440 the statue, the icon,
00:24:44.400 was still there.
00:24:45.820 And it, it really, it,
00:24:48.420 you know, I've seen a
00:24:49.400 lot of people talk about
00:24:51.260 First Amendment and all
00:24:53.600 sorts of other things,
00:24:54.620 but it really was this
00:24:55.820 simple.
00:24:57.020 It was wrong to be
00:24:58.500 there.
00:24:58.900 It shouldn't be there.
00:25:00.280 Satan should not be
00:25:01.220 praised in government.
00:25:02.760 God should be praised.
00:25:04.300 God is good, Satan is
00:25:05.540 bad.
00:25:06.560 And so I bought a plane
00:25:08.180 ticket up to Iowa.
00:25:09.360 I had no true plan of
00:25:11.800 what exactly was going
00:25:12.840 to happen.
00:25:13.840 I don't know if you've
00:25:14.620 seen the movie Field of
00:25:15.540 Dreams.
00:25:16.240 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:25:17.080 And at the, at the end
00:25:17.940 of the movie, there's a
00:25:19.320 scene where James Earl
00:25:21.380 Jones is saying, you know,
00:25:22.400 and people are going to,
00:25:23.640 they'll come to Iowa for
00:25:25.060 no, without understanding
00:25:27.000 why.
00:25:27.820 And as I was, as the
00:25:29.360 plane was landing in
00:25:30.400 Des Moines, I had that
00:25:31.780 same scene going through
00:25:33.220 in my, in my, in my head.
00:25:34.340 And I'm like, yeah.
00:25:34.760 You know, the field is
00:25:35.380 still there.
00:25:35.860 You may have actually
00:25:36.460 flown over it.
00:25:37.020 Maybe it was Stark's.
00:25:38.020 I don't know.
00:25:38.320 Oh, okay, okay.
00:25:38.780 But then the next, I
00:25:39.960 mean, I prayed on it the
00:25:40.880 next morning.
00:25:41.540 Yeah, but you know
00:25:42.000 about flying at night.
00:25:43.120 Oh, yeah.
00:25:43.780 I prefer flying during
00:25:45.060 the day.
00:25:45.460 Um, and then it was, uh, the
00:25:48.360 next morning I got up, uh, I
00:25:50.320 went to the Capitol.
00:25:51.840 Um, I, I didn't know what
00:25:53.740 to expect, whether there'd
00:25:54.780 be, uh, politicians there
00:25:57.680 that I could, you know,
00:25:58.760 yell at and say, hey,
00:25:59.820 idiots, take this thing
00:26:00.800 down.
00:26:01.420 Whether there'd be security
00:26:02.580 there, whether there'd be
00:26:03.900 protesters, I didn't know.
00:26:05.700 I got there and nobody was
00:26:08.660 there.
00:26:08.980 There's one, I think a
00:26:10.100 Catholic man, I'm, uh,
00:26:12.000 trained in Latin and
00:26:12.980 English, um, and yeah,
00:26:15.700 and he, but that was the
00:26:17.480 only guy, no security.
00:26:19.220 And I began, it seen it
00:26:22.200 in person, that statue, man,
00:26:24.620 it, it was different than
00:26:25.720 seeing it on social media
00:26:27.040 and it became different,
00:26:28.660 different how different.
00:26:29.720 Um, it clarified how evil
00:26:33.320 it was.
00:26:33.760 Like I knew it was bad, but
00:26:35.280 it's like actually seen it
00:26:37.040 in person.
00:26:38.420 Um, it, it made me realize
00:26:41.220 that yes, it, it had to
00:26:42.580 come down.
00:26:43.380 And so how, how tall was
00:26:44.720 it?
00:26:45.580 Uh, about six feet,
00:26:46.660 something like that.
00:26:47.300 Wow.
00:26:47.700 Yeah.
00:26:47.960 So it was some, you know,
00:26:49.220 it was some cheap mannequin
00:26:50.580 with a, uh, again, some
00:26:52.460 cheap goat head on top of
00:26:54.360 it.
00:26:54.880 Uh, it came apart pretty
00:26:56.580 easily.
00:26:57.400 Um, and yeah.
00:26:59.240 Now, did you, did you have
00:27:00.120 something, some, some, uh,
00:27:02.020 instrument?
00:27:02.700 No, I've seen the means,
00:27:04.020 uh, like with a hammer,
00:27:05.300 with a, you know, a sword or
00:27:06.780 something like that.
00:27:07.820 Uh, there, there is no,
00:27:09.380 uh, nothing like that.
00:27:10.800 I just had my hands.
00:27:13.680 Uh, and then after, after
00:27:16.280 I did what I did, um, I
00:27:18.440 went back to security and
00:27:19.960 I said, Hey, uh, remember
00:27:21.620 me, uh, this is what I did.
00:27:23.740 And they, they were
00:27:25.160 surprised, but they were
00:27:26.260 professional.
00:27:26.860 They ended up calling the
00:27:27.600 cops over and, and we
00:27:29.840 talked and, uh, and the
00:27:32.140 end, they ended up giving
00:27:32.880 me a citation.
00:27:33.880 Um, and then they sent me
00:27:35.020 on my way.
00:27:35.600 So I didn't get, I never
00:27:36.880 got arrested.
00:27:37.820 There's no mugshot out there
00:27:39.560 of me.
00:27:40.480 Uh, I know a lot of people
00:27:41.800 were asking about that.
00:27:42.880 Right, right.
00:27:44.200 Well, and I, and I, I look
00:27:45.680 at this because look, we
00:27:47.940 live in a country where we've
00:27:50.840 seen people, and I'm not
00:27:52.340 going to say what you did
00:27:53.020 was political.
00:27:53.580 I don't, I don't feel it
00:27:54.560 was political, but we do
00:27:56.200 live in a country where
00:27:57.540 people in the name of
00:27:58.720 politics over the last few
00:28:00.480 years have committed
00:28:01.980 millions of acts of civil
00:28:05.340 disobedience and all gotten
00:28:07.440 away with a slap on the
00:28:08.380 wrist.
00:28:08.680 And we're not talking
00:28:09.400 about just, you know, sort
00:28:10.720 of knocking over a paper
00:28:11.820 mache, uh, idol here.
00:28:13.420 We're talking about burning
00:28:14.920 down cities, uh, lobbing,
00:28:17.600 um, you know, bricks and,
00:28:19.420 and all throughout 2020
00:28:20.580 bricks and flaming influence,
00:28:22.800 Molotov cocktails.
00:28:23.800 And in many cases, I remember
00:28:26.480 seeing, I was in, uh,
00:28:28.060 Washington DC at the
00:28:29.480 inauguration in 2021 and
00:28:31.800 you had hundreds of people
00:28:33.360 attack the inauguration,
00:28:35.460 blocking traffic, um, block
00:28:37.460 me in traffic.
00:28:38.240 Like me was there with my
00:28:39.280 fiance at the time, my wife
00:28:40.380 now, and my brother, and
00:28:41.800 we're just trying to get
00:28:42.380 home and they're blocking
00:28:43.920 the roads.
00:28:44.560 They're screaming, they're
00:28:45.200 setting stuff on fire.
00:28:46.440 Those people ended up suing
00:28:49.480 the city of DC.
00:28:51.180 The ACLU came in for them.
00:28:53.420 The ACLU defends them.
00:28:55.640 The city of DC apologizes
00:28:57.320 and then cuts them a check
00:28:59.540 for $1.2 million after they
00:29:03.180 committed the civil
00:29:03.900 disobedience.
00:29:05.240 And so I guess what I say is
00:29:07.280 when I see people out there
00:29:08.680 and they're, they're
00:29:09.440 criticizing you for what you
00:29:10.680 did and they're saying you
00:29:11.900 shouldn't have done that.
00:29:12.580 It's like, you're the same
00:29:13.960 people who have been doing
00:29:15.340 this for years, championing
00:29:18.060 it and the ACLU supports it.
00:29:19.840 So I have to ask, you know,
00:29:21.480 has the ACLU called you?
00:29:23.200 Have they set you up with
00:29:24.080 legal representation?
00:29:24.920 Have they said they're going
00:29:26.240 to be filing amicus briefs
00:29:27.900 on your behalf?
00:29:29.080 I mean, you, they must be
00:29:30.020 banging down your door
00:29:30.920 right now, man.
00:29:31.880 I've had a lot of people
00:29:33.100 reach out.
00:29:34.140 If they've reached out,
00:29:35.180 I may have missed it.
00:29:37.720 The, yeah.
00:29:40.000 May have missed that call.
00:29:41.180 Yeah.
00:29:41.320 The equivalency that,
00:29:42.440 that I hear about is that
00:29:44.020 satanic statues and scenes
00:29:46.440 of the nativity, that they're
00:29:48.740 equal.
00:29:49.640 And there are a lot of people
00:29:51.160 that, you know, go back and
00:29:52.420 forth and try to come up with
00:29:53.660 a lot of logical arguments
00:29:55.680 one way or the other.
00:29:56.880 And I certainly have my
00:29:58.400 opinion, but the, it's really
00:30:01.120 as simple as Satan is bad
00:30:02.780 and Jesus Christ is good.
00:30:05.240 And we shouldn't be promoting
00:30:07.760 things that are evil in our
00:30:09.960 society.
00:30:10.840 It's, I think it's that simple.
00:30:12.860 No, it really is because
00:30:13.880 people, and look, I, I've
00:30:15.660 gotten into the debates
00:30:16.460 myself online and I was even
00:30:18.660 having those debates before
00:30:19.660 you even, even did this.
00:30:22.040 And one thing I pointed out
00:30:23.700 is that if you go back to
00:30:24.640 our constitution, if you go
00:30:26.020 back to the framers, if you
00:30:27.020 go back to the original first
00:30:28.600 amendment, and we actually
00:30:30.820 pulled up, we did this on the
00:30:31.740 show the other day and we
00:30:33.500 pulled up Webster's
00:30:34.920 dictionary.
00:30:35.820 Now there's Webster's
00:30:37.000 dictionary today, which is a
00:30:39.100 little different, but Webster
00:30:40.980 because it's actually that
00:30:41.780 old.
00:30:42.060 We have a copy of what
00:30:43.760 Webster's dictionary looked
00:30:44.880 like.
00:30:45.200 It's from like 1827.
00:30:47.160 So right around the time
00:30:48.620 within a 30 year delta to
00:30:50.420 when the actual first
00:30:51.560 amendment was, you know, in
00:30:52.620 1791 when it was passed.
00:30:54.520 So a pretty similar
00:30:56.580 definition to what would
00:30:58.380 have been understood at the
00:30:59.560 time of the founders.
00:31:00.840 So 1827, the founders are
00:31:02.000 all still alive for the most
00:31:03.320 part.
00:31:03.780 You know, the younger ones,
00:31:04.480 I think Washington may have
00:31:05.220 passed by then, but they're
00:31:06.020 all around.
00:31:06.480 So this was the understanding
00:31:07.560 of the word religion at the
00:31:10.140 time.
00:31:10.900 So if you look at, and
00:31:11.680 here's the amazing, talk
00:31:13.100 about deltas, the delta from
00:31:14.860 what Webster said then to
00:31:16.680 what Webster said now.
00:31:19.020 Now, if you read Webster, it
00:31:20.860 says the worship of the
00:31:22.720 supernatural is the
00:31:23.980 definition of religion.
00:31:25.140 Worship of the supernatural,
00:31:27.120 which is like, how do you
00:31:28.140 define that?
00:31:29.040 Like it's just any
00:31:29.980 supernatural thing.
00:31:31.400 Yeah, it's Satan.
00:31:32.620 If you go back to the time
00:31:34.640 of the founders, it is, and
00:31:36.460 it's long, but the essence
00:31:38.320 of it is the worship of God.
00:31:40.960 So the worship of God.
00:31:42.260 And so at the time, and you
00:31:44.940 can go through state after
00:31:46.360 state after state, the very
00:31:47.680 state legislature.
00:31:48.820 So we all know it was the
00:31:50.240 states that ratified the
00:31:51.320 constitution.
00:31:52.160 That's like, well, okay, I
00:31:53.280 say we all know, but they
00:31:54.840 don't always teach that as
00:31:56.140 much anymore.
00:31:57.280 But if you look into it, you
00:31:58.700 find this new information.
00:32:00.640 States ratified the
00:32:01.380 constitution.
00:32:02.420 And then it is those same
00:32:04.080 those same state
00:32:05.000 legislatures immediately
00:32:06.640 after ratifying the Bill of
00:32:08.160 Rights.
00:32:08.440 nine out of the 10 or
00:32:10.360 something like nine
00:32:11.160 tenths of them pass
00:32:12.540 blasphemy laws in the
00:32:14.660 states and say, we
00:32:17.140 actually are going to make
00:32:18.060 it illegal to blaspheme
00:32:20.440 God.
00:32:21.800 Some of these were
00:32:22.600 challenged.
00:32:23.640 They were on the books
00:32:24.620 all the way up through the
00:32:25.480 1920s.
00:32:26.560 Yeah.
00:32:26.780 And so for 150 years in
00:32:29.140 our country and in our
00:32:30.060 history, it was understood
00:32:31.720 that religion meant the
00:32:33.840 worship of God.
00:32:34.940 Now, we would, you know,
00:32:37.060 we support it and it all
00:32:38.520 goes back to the history of
00:32:39.340 the Church of England and
00:32:40.400 there's not going to be a
00:32:41.100 Church of America and you
00:32:42.860 understand the actual
00:32:43.720 history of why they put it
00:32:44.700 there.
00:32:45.440 It never meant that they
00:32:46.860 were enshrining beliefs to
00:32:48.960 whatever you feel like.
00:32:50.900 It was a specific and even
00:32:53.440 in the Iowa state
00:32:54.240 constitution, it was a
00:32:55.280 specific belief.
00:32:56.340 They even say in the Iowa
00:32:58.140 constitution, the worship of
00:33:00.400 the supreme being.
00:33:02.420 Yep.
00:33:02.720 It's right there.
00:33:03.580 And this is something that
00:33:05.880 I, and I've been, I've been
00:33:06.860 going at it with the
00:33:07.940 community notes people on
00:33:09.240 X and the liberal lawyers
00:33:10.920 on X and they don't
00:33:12.280 understand.
00:33:12.640 I'm not talking about the
00:33:13.960 Supreme Court case law and
00:33:15.580 the bad case law that I
00:33:16.960 believe has come out.
00:33:17.800 I'm talking about the
00:33:18.820 history of the first
00:33:19.540 amendment and the history of
00:33:20.860 religious freedom in this
00:33:21.740 country.
00:33:22.100 And the history of
00:33:22.880 religious freedom in this
00:33:23.740 country has always been
00:33:24.980 that religion has at the
00:33:26.400 original founding.
00:33:27.660 Right.
00:33:28.280 And this is where you go
00:33:29.320 nowadays we talk about the
00:33:30.640 living constitution and the,
00:33:32.380 you know, the, the, the, the
00:33:34.620 interpretation of a new
00:33:36.800 interpretation, how I
00:33:37.920 interpret, it's different
00:33:38.700 from how you interpret.
00:33:39.540 Right.
00:33:39.920 And it's, and that's how you
00:33:41.120 get, you, you get a law, a
00:33:43.160 constitution that means
00:33:43.820 nothing actually.
00:33:45.120 And so what it meant at the
00:33:47.400 time of the writing was the
00:33:49.560 respect of the worship of
00:33:50.720 God would be protected.
00:33:52.160 And as Satan is the enemy of
00:33:55.260 God, right?
00:33:56.700 The antithesis of God, in
00:33:58.480 fact, Satan's motto, non
00:33:59.920 servus, do not serve, do not
00:34:02.640 serve.
00:34:03.120 So if that's what Satanism
00:34:04.420 stands for, and even this
00:34:06.000 new one is like a fake
00:34:06.900 religion.
00:34:07.920 So even, so from a legal
00:34:09.600 perspective, by the way, if
00:34:10.980 they, they admit they're not a
00:34:12.100 real religion, then there you
00:34:13.100 go, right?
00:34:14.240 You don't get religious
00:34:14.900 protection.
00:34:15.480 The end.
00:34:16.700 Secondly, though, the state
00:34:19.100 governments have the ability to
00:34:21.620 support or oppose whatever
00:34:24.320 they want in their state
00:34:25.780 houses.
00:34:26.500 That's the 10th Amendment
00:34:27.600 because all powers not given
00:34:29.500 to the federal government are
00:34:30.820 given to the states.
00:34:31.900 And it's like, it's like we
00:34:33.840 just forgot all of this.
00:34:35.080 Yeah.
00:34:35.620 And it's amazing.
00:34:36.760 So tell me about the response
00:34:39.900 you've received.
00:34:40.920 I'm sure you've had a lot of
00:34:42.260 people, you know, very upset
00:34:43.740 about it.
00:34:44.360 But, but tell me about some of
00:34:45.540 the personal response you've
00:34:46.500 received.
00:34:47.260 So I've definitely had a lot of
00:34:49.200 positive.
00:34:50.000 I've had a lot of negative.
00:34:51.620 Um, it's really been
00:34:54.000 remarkable people, you know,
00:34:55.860 who, yeah, I've got no idea
00:34:57.020 who they are, um, that have
00:34:59.380 said, you know, we think what's
00:35:02.440 happening in our society is so
00:35:04.480 bad.
00:35:05.400 And we're glad that somebody has
00:35:08.180 taken a firm stand and said
00:35:10.380 Satanism is bad.
00:35:11.480 And that they, um, and so that's
00:35:14.920 been good to see something that
00:35:16.140 was tragic.
00:35:17.220 I mean, I've gotten a lot of hate
00:35:19.120 mail, uh, from Satanists and
00:35:20.960 Satanists adjacent people.
00:35:22.620 The one thing that is just
00:35:24.320 When you say hate mail, do you
00:35:25.360 mean, do they, do they have your
00:35:26.480 address?
00:35:26.940 Are they coming to your house?
00:35:27.660 Uh, no, like Facebook and, and
00:35:30.260 Twitter X.
00:35:31.040 Um, and one thing, one message I
00:35:34.360 got was from a father in Iowa and
00:35:37.040 he was mad at me because of the, the
00:35:40.700 statue no longer being there, that he
00:35:43.780 could no longer show his daughter the
00:35:47.180 satanic idol that he wanted.
00:35:49.540 He had hoped later that day to have
00:35:53.020 shown his daughter the statue of
00:35:55.640 Satan.
00:35:56.620 And I think that, you know, that kind
00:35:58.680 of hopefully puts things in
00:36:00.380 perspective for people that maybe
00:36:01.960 aren't paying that much attention to
00:36:03.760 how important or how, how much of an
00:36:06.880 impact these idols, these icons can
00:36:09.560 have on the average American that if
00:36:12.720 you see Satan being praised, being
00:36:15.640 normalized, then you're going to have
00:36:18.680 people that get drawn to Satan.
00:36:20.600 I don't want that.
00:36:21.660 I'm getting very simple.
00:36:23.280 I want people to reject Satan.
00:36:25.540 I want people to accept Jesus Christ.
00:36:27.980 And that's really, that's the center
00:36:30.540 point of what I hope comes out of all
00:36:33.120 of this and seeing somebody want to
00:36:36.680 take their daughter to see the devil.
00:36:39.180 It's heartbreaking, honestly.
00:36:41.180 No.
00:36:41.500 And it, and it, it's, it's interesting
00:36:43.080 that, uh, I'll just say it.
00:36:45.220 It's interesting that when you go, when
00:36:46.920 you hear from the Satanist, it's
00:36:48.100 always children, it's always got to
00:36:49.960 take the children.
00:36:50.780 It's like, you know, we had the same
00:36:53.360 issue with, with the drag queen story
00:36:55.080 hours in, um, and it's always, and I
00:36:58.340 was like, why is it always drag queen
00:37:00.380 story hour to children?
00:37:02.260 Why isn't it, you know, every year
00:37:03.360 drag queen story hour to the elderly
00:37:04.960 or the nursing homes or the homeless
00:37:07.220 or the downtrodden, you know, no, no,
00:37:09.660 no, no, no, it's, you know, the, the,
00:37:11.260 the addicts or the people in recovery.
00:37:12.920 No, no, no.
00:37:13.380 It's always children.
00:37:14.220 We always have to focus on the
00:37:15.900 children because they understand that
00:37:17.480 if you get people, you get them at a
00:37:19.620 young age, if you target them at that
00:37:21.580 age, if you indoctrinate them, if, and
00:37:23.540 as you say, if you normalize these
00:37:25.300 things, look, I've got kids, do you
00:37:26.240 have kids?
00:37:26.680 No.
00:37:27.140 Okay.
00:37:27.460 One day, one day, will they, one
00:37:28.900 day, day is full that, that with my
00:37:31.300 kids, they believe whatever you tell
00:37:33.920 them.
00:37:34.240 Yeah.
00:37:34.740 Right.
00:37:34.860 They believe whatever you tell them
00:37:36.600 that you say something to them and,
00:37:38.880 and it's like, cause they want to
00:37:40.420 please their parents.
00:37:42.120 They want to please mom and dad.
00:37:43.780 They want to make mom and dad happy.
00:37:46.240 Well, one of my kids, the other kid,
00:37:47.500 not so much.
00:37:49.120 You know, the, the, the, the younger
00:37:50.360 one, you know, he's, he's more like,
00:37:52.100 what can I get away with?
00:37:53.200 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:37:53.620 You know, the, and the other one,
00:37:55.000 the other one tries to get away with
00:37:56.100 it too, but he's a little, he's a
00:37:57.120 little trickier about it.
00:37:57.980 See, he's good at hiding it.
00:37:59.160 You know, he's good.
00:38:00.080 The other one's like, but mom, you
00:38:01.760 know, you know, you play mom against
00:38:03.240 dad, that whole thing.
00:38:04.100 Smart, smart young.
00:38:04.620 They're good.
00:38:05.160 You know, it's like, it's like,
00:38:06.220 they wonder who they learned that
00:38:07.500 from, you know, no idea.
00:38:08.780 But, but there, Rush Limbaugh used
00:38:11.660 to have this, he called them
00:38:12.360 little skulls full of mush and
00:38:13.820 they really, they're malleable.
00:38:15.380 And so when, when we see this
00:38:17.100 promoted in societies, you,
00:38:19.180 children will follow that which is
00:38:22.600 promoted.
00:38:23.480 And we see this across, you know,
00:38:26.060 I hate to say it, but certain
00:38:27.200 countries of the Middle East where
00:38:28.420 they promote terrorism, where they
00:38:30.860 promote violence.
00:38:32.780 And you see children saying, I want
00:38:35.020 to grow up and do that.
00:38:36.440 Um, it's the same idea and it's
00:38:38.600 the same thing with celebrities in
00:38:39.740 the U S and, and athletes.
00:38:41.440 And, you know, I wish that we would
00:38:43.020 go back to promoting like, you
00:38:44.780 know, military and firefighters and
00:38:47.900 EMTs and police officers and, you
00:38:50.720 know, the actual people that support
00:38:52.400 our society and make ourselves do
00:38:54.340 better.
00:38:54.620 But, you know, maybe one day,
00:38:56.600 maybe one day, you know, but
00:38:58.200 any of priests, nuns, people who
00:38:59.880 just like help the community, you
00:39:01.680 know, crazy.
00:39:02.700 I know, but, but we've got a
00:39:05.840 couple of minutes left, let people
00:39:07.420 know.
00:39:08.140 And I saw that you would, you
00:39:09.340 would initially raised a certain
00:39:11.340 amount of money in your give, send
00:39:12.340 and go.
00:39:12.660 You would closed it off, but then
00:39:14.620 you reopened it because you heard
00:39:16.120 there's more potential legal
00:39:18.520 investigations going on.
00:39:20.000 Can you give us an update from the
00:39:21.380 legal side for our viewers to
00:39:23.800 understand where that currently
00:39:25.000 stands?
00:39:25.880 Sure.
00:39:26.440 We, uh, the only charge that has
00:39:29.080 been filed against me is the state
00:39:31.320 of Iowa, uh, fourth degree criminal
00:39:33.720 mischief, I believe a misdemeanor.
00:39:36.000 Um, there are other, any, any jail
00:39:38.200 time on that?
00:39:39.160 Uh, potentially.
00:39:40.160 Wow.
00:39:40.540 Potentially.
00:39:41.080 Okay.
00:39:41.580 Um, the, and then there, there's
00:39:44.540 some other, uh, potential, uh, legal
00:39:46.980 matters that I, I'd rather not go
00:39:48.920 into, but they, I assure you that,
00:39:51.720 that they're present.
00:39:52.980 Um, we've got a fundraiser.
00:39:54.920 It's on my, my next account.
00:39:56.840 Uh, the Sentinel put it up.
00:39:58.060 It's a give, send, go with my name,
00:40:00.340 Michael Cassidy, just Google it.
00:40:02.080 Uh, you'll find it.
00:40:03.540 Uh, and I may have posted it once
00:40:05.600 or twice.
00:40:06.180 Yeah.
00:40:06.440 Yeah.
00:40:06.640 Thank you.
00:40:07.340 And to be clear, it's, um, I
00:40:10.280 don't, I don't touch that money.
00:40:12.020 It's not, it doesn't go to me.
00:40:13.360 I have authority to delegate that
00:40:15.540 to my legal counsel.
00:40:17.360 Great.
00:40:17.780 Uh, and any money that, that we do
00:40:20.140 not use for that is going to go to
00:40:22.320 some sort of, you know, Christian
00:40:23.920 legal defense, uh, fund.
00:40:26.960 Oh, that's great.
00:40:27.400 Yeah.
00:40:27.580 It's not, it's not going to me
00:40:28.700 like I'm not, this was not done
00:40:30.660 for profit.
00:40:31.600 So you're saying any money that's
00:40:32.920 left over after your cases are
00:40:35.080 done will be turned over to a
00:40:36.840 Christian legal defense fund.
00:40:38.080 Absolutely.
00:40:38.600 100%.
00:40:39.060 Incredible.
00:40:39.480 Yeah.
00:40:39.940 Incredible.
00:40:40.340 So we're going to keep that going
00:40:41.560 then.
00:40:42.160 And I know here we're filming this
00:40:43.860 at Turning Point Amfest.
00:40:45.340 Turning Point is pledged 10K.
00:40:47.100 Yeah.
00:40:47.300 Thank you.
00:40:48.500 Human events.
00:40:49.380 We will keep this thing going
00:40:50.560 however much you need, however
00:40:52.240 long it takes.
00:40:53.100 We will keep it going and urging
00:40:55.740 our viewers, urging our listeners,
00:40:57.900 do what you can because I'll say
00:40:59.480 this, whatever the, the fight, you
00:41:03.240 know, you call the fight for our
00:41:04.140 nation, the fight for our soul is, I
00:41:05.800 don't believe we're in a political
00:41:07.820 battle.
00:41:08.200 And I'll ask you about this for a
00:41:09.800 final minute.
00:41:10.680 Do you believe that there is a
00:41:12.040 spiritual war going on right now?
00:41:13.960 Absolutely.
00:41:15.340 Absolutely.
00:41:16.260 That, you know, people, people don't
00:41:19.960 want to believe that the devil is
00:41:21.660 real.
00:41:22.860 Like the Satanists, they'll joke
00:41:24.360 that, oh, no, we don't actually
00:41:25.620 believe in the devil.
00:41:27.260 But Scripture is very clear that the
00:41:29.640 devil is real and will try to lead
00:41:32.460 people away from Christ.
00:41:35.380 And we have to acknowledge that.
00:41:38.060 And if we just think that, you know,
00:41:41.700 satanic statues have no effect, that's
00:41:45.260 wrong because there's always been a
00:41:47.180 spiritual war going on for our souls.
00:41:49.560 Amen.
00:41:49.920 Yeah.
00:41:50.220 You know, they say the greatest trick
00:41:51.540 the devil ever pulled was convincing
00:41:53.480 the world that he didn't exist.
00:41:55.460 Yeah.
00:41:55.660 And if you were a true Satanist, the
