Donald Trump was almost assassinated yet again.
00:00:08.100
Well, Donald Trump, but not only Donald Trump, but also his supporters, you.
00:00:15.040
What are they saying and what does this really mean?
00:00:18.440
What does this look like as we enter into the homestretch of this election season?
00:00:24.260
We've got all of the examples of how the left has talked about violence over the years
00:00:30.780
and all of the analysis on today's episode of Relatable.
00:00:34.440
It's brought to you by our friends at Good Ranchers.

00:00:56.540
Okay, I was just telling producer Brie that I am going to try to bring as much energy as
00:01:03.660
But Justin, FYI, I'm dealing with this headache and I'm very tired this morning.
00:01:08.940
And so I am going to pray for the power of the Holy Spirit to get us through that.
00:01:17.020
And maybe to break up some of the more serious content that we are going to get into today.
00:01:22.120
And yesterday's content was obviously very serious.
00:01:26.160
I'll take a little bit of a break just to tell you about my health journey that is probably
00:01:33.520
Okay, so I'm seeing this functional medicine doctor.
00:01:37.000
And I've had a lot of people on my show on Wellness Wednesdays talk about the importance
00:01:41.480
of functional medicine and getting all of this comprehensive blood work done and working with
00:01:47.440
someone who really knows how to look at your entire health map, the entirety of all of your
00:01:55.080
functions and how you can optimize them through various means.
00:02:02.860
And one of them, of course, is changing your diet.
00:02:08.240
And just to be candid, this has been the hardest postpartum time for me and losing weight and
00:02:17.140
getting back into like a workout routine and a healthy eating regimen.
00:02:21.960
Maybe it's just because I have more kids than I've ever had before.
00:02:32.460
And so it seemed that my metabolism was faster.
00:02:36.160
Actually, I think that's not even the correct way to say that if I remember correctly.
00:02:44.480
And so as I was talking to my functional medicine doctor and we were going over some of my blood
00:02:48.860
work, I will say, shout out We Heart Nutrition, who is a sponsor today that I'll get to later.
00:02:54.480
Iron levels were good, but some of my other levels were not.
00:02:57.880
And it just seemed like I wasn't absorbing the nutrients that I need to.
00:03:03.220
So she was recommending, you know, as we do some other tests, why don't you try to go ahead
00:03:11.040
Now, this is tough because gluten and dairy are two of my main sources of joy in my life.
00:03:15.880
I love gluten and dairy and I love gluten and dairy together on pizza, in pasta, on fajitas
00:03:22.880
with queso, like gluten and dairy is a match made in heaven.
00:03:27.860
And I think I mean that literally, like when we get to heaven, I think there will be a lot
00:03:33.380
of gluten and dairy, but it will be good for us and it won't be bad for our health and
00:03:40.400
it won't cause the inflammation that it causes a lot of people today.
00:03:43.220
And I know a lot of you out there are going to say, you should try raw dairy or you should
00:04:00.200
I'm going to try this and I've been trying it for three weeks, y'all for three weeks.
00:04:04.880
I've been without gluten and dairy and that has been really tough.
00:04:08.380
I've gone through different like seasons in the past year of trying to do carnivore,
00:04:14.720
This is the first time I focused on this and the first time I've really been successful.
00:04:18.840
And I will say it's worked in some in some ways in that like in three weeks, seven pounds
00:04:27.040
And that is really just because I am realizing just by cutting out gluten and dairy, like
00:04:36.620
And you moms can probably relate to this, but it's like, oh, I'll just finish the waffles
00:04:42.020
I'll just finish the peanut butter and jelly at lunch.
00:04:45.520
I'll just finish the mac and cheese or the cheese pizza at dinner.
00:04:51.500
But as you're doing that every day, that adds up to like a thousand extra calories that you're
00:04:55.800
not even thinking about consuming and you're not even calculating into like how much you're
00:05:02.880
And so getting rid of gluten and dairy has made me so much more cognizant of what I'm
00:05:12.620
However, it also is if you've ever done something like Whole30 and actually like hate to promote
00:05:19.480
that program because of the values of some of the people that started it.
00:05:24.880
And you do go through that like detox period to where you are like your head hurts and
00:05:31.400
you're really tired and your body is like, give me a biscuit.
00:05:43.560
Well, I did go through that a couple of weeks ago and now I'm kind of going through it again.
00:05:49.500
Like that's where I'm like, I got plenty of sleep last night, but I'm tired.
00:05:56.400
I'm like, someone give this girl chicken fingers.
00:06:02.020
And so I'm hoping that I can get over this soon and start to like really feel better.
00:06:08.280
Part of my problem too, though, is that even though I cut out a lot of just like processed
00:06:14.040
stuff and I'm hopeful maybe one day I can add in some like healthy gluten and dairy one
00:06:20.920
But I've eliminated so much processed stuff just by getting rid of that.
00:06:25.500
And I have necessarily added in like, you know, more protein and things because I can
00:06:33.200
But I still have like a very unhealthy eating pattern and that I know I don't eat a good
00:06:40.020
breakfast and that I get too hungry and my blood sugar gets too low.
00:06:43.620
That's something that my functional medicine doctor told me that my blood sugar is actually
00:06:48.340
And so I think that is probably part of my issue.
00:06:51.260
So hopefully my next stage of healthy eating will actually be adding in a good eating schedule
00:07:01.760
So I just share that because I know a lot of you are on the same journey.
00:07:08.660
And I have always said, oh, after a year postpartum, I'm always down to my pre-pregnancy weight.
00:07:13.320
Well, I'm a year postpartum and I'm not there yet.
00:07:16.020
And so I just want to encourage you, especially if you're breastfeeding like I am, that's more
00:07:23.580
Every time I tried to cut too many calories like early on when she was still like feeding
00:07:28.760
a lot, my supply went down and I just had to say, you know what?
00:07:35.420
And I will say for the purpose of breastfeeding, like sourdough bread with some butter on it,
00:07:39.820
it's not good for the weight, but it is really good for like your supply and for feeding.
00:07:48.600
So I finally feel like I'm getting in a time where I can focus on this.
00:07:55.860
I don't want any negative opinions because there's too many contradictory opinions out
00:08:00.020
But if you have encouragement, if you have some advice for me, also, y'all have seen on
00:08:05.000
Instagram that I'm rucking these days, which is I really like.
00:08:10.700
Actually, that's my favorite kind of working out.
00:08:12.820
And I just really don't have time to like set up a plan and do all of that right now.
00:08:17.060
But rucking kind of kills two birds with one stone because like you've got the weighted
00:08:25.460
And so that's that's my health update right now that hopefully a lot of y'all can relate
00:08:35.220
And I will warn you that you will lose a good amount of joy by cutting out gluten and dairy.
00:08:52.200
Maybe in a couple of weeks, I'll be able to say that.
00:08:57.880
Now we got to dive into the really unfortunate stuff, the really sad and dark and disturbing
00:09:02.840
stuff, the stuff that really does matter because people's lives matter.
00:09:06.220
This election really matters and the truth matters.
00:09:12.540
I'll tell you about our first sponsor for the day.
00:09:20.640
I feel like I have finally kind of mastered transitional fall wear because, you know, we
00:09:30.020
I think it's literally going to be 95 degrees this week.
00:09:32.620
So I want to look like fall, but I don't want to be sweating bullets.
00:09:35.700
And so I've got this cute, I think it's called the, I don't know, golden poppy blouse or something
00:09:46.240
And then I've got these cargo pants, which I love.
00:09:58.720
You can mix and match a lot of really nice pieces that can adapt to all different kinds
00:10:04.180
of occasions and seasons of the year, different weather and different times of your life.
00:10:12.300
They're really quality pieces that you can wear all the time.
00:10:15.780

00:10:30.500
We had already, uh, we had actually, uh, planned to talk about some other things on today's episode,
00:10:36.260
but obviously with the events that occurred over the weekend, we had to kind of adjust
00:10:41.760
and focus on yet another assassination attempt on President Trump.
00:10:49.200
There's so many mixed signals and like mixed information out there.
00:10:54.600
And so we're going to try to wade through that and separate fact from fiction on this.
00:11:00.480
Uh, for the second time in two months, there was an attempted assassination of former President
00:11:05.760
This time as he was golfing at his Florida golf club on Sunday, uh, Trump was not harmed.
00:11:12.660
And the incident and the would-be assassin was taken into custody.
00:11:17.200
I'm, I'm glad that that would-be assassin is alive because they need to get as much information
00:11:24.240
Like, how did he know that he was golfing that day?
00:11:27.220
Did he just assume that apparently this man, we're not going to say his name because part
00:11:35.040
Um, he was camped out there allegedly for 12 hours the night before, just staked out
00:11:42.280
with his rifle ready to literally hunt Trump down like an animal.
00:11:48.000
And of course, he was known by authorities, which we will get to in just a little bit.
00:11:53.860
Trump was moving between holes five and six at the Trump International Golf Club in West
00:11:58.080
Palm Beach with donor Steve Wyckoff when gunshots went off.
00:12:01.700
The golf game was a last minute addition to Trump's schedule, sources said.
00:12:05.520
So again, it's strange that this person apparently knew he was going to be there.
00:12:09.280
A Secret Service agent spotted a rifle barrel sticking out of a fence and agents fired at
00:12:16.300
a man in the bushes along the perimeter, according to Palm Beach County Sheriff Rick Bradshaw.
00:12:21.500
Bradshaw said his office was alerted at 1.30 p.m.
00:12:24.380
Eastern time that the Secret Service had fired gunshots.
00:12:27.420
The person was 300 to 500 yards away from Trump, an official said.
00:12:31.580
Now we know there was clearly a dereliction of duty from Secret Service leadership when it
00:12:36.740
came to the last assassination attempt, but I'm very glad that they were there.
00:12:42.340
Yes, or Sunday doing their job and doing it well.
00:12:46.400
Bradshaw said no shots were fired by the person who fled in a car.
00:12:51.780
There was a female witness who saw the suspect run from the bushes.
00:12:55.680
And as he was driving away, he took she took a picture of his car that led to the suspect's
00:13:02.380
And so you go, girl, good for you for being brave enough and quick thinking enough in a
00:13:08.040
moment of chaos to snap that picture of the license plate.
00:13:13.980
Police flooded Interstate 95 before stopping the suspect's car and detaining him.
00:13:18.420
The suspect was not armed when law enforcement officials took him out of the car, and he has
00:13:24.240
not made any statements, at least that we know of.
00:13:28.040
The sheriff of Martin County, Florida, recalled that this man was really calm when he was
00:13:39.780
I honestly thought it looked like somebody that had just left the church picnic and was
00:13:45.420
I'm not a psychologist, but I would assume that's probably the indication or the indicator
00:13:53.100
Um, this man appeared at a federal court in Florida yesterday morning and has been charged
00:13:59.680
with two counts, including possessing a firearm as a convicted felon and possessing a firearm
00:14:07.780
The first charge carries up to 15 years of prison time.
00:14:13.560
Law enforcement officials familiar with the matter told CNN.
00:14:17.180
There's more on this suspect, and it's always wise to wait a little bit to share information
00:14:24.140
about suspects because Russia and China, um, and other enemies that we have love to infiltrate
00:14:34.480
American discourse with purposeful disinformation that causes division, that causes disagreements,
00:14:46.080
And so we have to do the best that we can to wade through it.
00:14:49.700
And usually if we wait for the noise to die down, if people release their desire to be the first,
00:14:57.480
because when you always want to be the first, you are most likely to put out wrong information
00:15:05.940
And certainly I'm not perfect in being as patient as I can possibly be, but it's something I have
00:15:12.440
learned over the years that if you wait, not forever, but for, you know, 24 to 48 hours,
00:15:18.640
then you're usually more likely to get the facts right the first time.
00:15:30.260
There have been arguments about whether he was a Trump supporter or whether he was against Donald
00:15:36.600
Trump, but it's kind of odd because the media won't really say, they'll say, oh, his politics
00:15:44.120
Like he literally tried to murder Donald Trump.
00:15:46.500
I think that we can suppose that he was against Donald Trump, right?
00:15:49.860
Like we can, it's probably safe to assume that.
00:15:52.700
Do we think that the diehard MAGA was going to assassinate the guy that he was hoping would
00:15:58.700
I think it's pretty safe to say that he did not want Trump to become president.
00:16:03.820
I'm not saying that all of his political views make sense.
00:16:07.540
I'm not saying that he was like a diehard lib forever because we don't know that.
00:16:11.680
A lot of his political statements apparently contradict each other and seem just kind of
00:16:18.740
That part of his politics is abundantly obvious by the fact that he tried to kill him.
00:16:24.100
Apparently this guy, according to his social media, which was archived, it's now scrubbed.
00:16:28.700
And he was a big supporter of Ukraine, like really tried to recruit military, tried to recruit
00:16:38.420
people both from America and Afghanistan to Ukraine to fight in the war.
00:16:47.540
He does seem to be more of a democratic supporter.
00:16:50.500
He made 19 small donations totaling to $140 since 2019 to Act Blue, a political action committee
00:17:02.100
According to federal campaign finance records, he tweeted at Joe Biden not too long ago, just
00:17:15.880
You and Biden should visit the injured people at the hospital from the Trump rally and attend
00:17:28.420
He said to Iran or he wrote this about Iran in a self-published book in 2023.
00:17:39.220
This was a book titled Ukraine's Unwinnable War, which described the former president as
00:17:43.660
a fool and a buffoon for both the January 6th, 2021 Capitol riots and the quote unquote
00:17:49.900
tremendous blunder of leaving the Iran nuclear deal.
00:17:55.200
And he also has tweeted to President Biden different pieces of advice for his campaign, telling him
00:18:03.900
that his campaign should be keep America free to try to protect America from the anti-democracy
00:18:11.420
stance, what he would call an anti-democracy stance of Donald Trump.
00:18:15.760
So we don't know exactly where he was politically.
00:18:20.120
There is some indication that he also supported Nikki Haley, that he also supported Vivek.
00:18:25.080
Again, it's just really hard to know what exactly is true here.
00:18:30.640
So I don't want to say that he was exclusively a Democrat, but it's pretty clear that he supported
00:18:36.820
Harris Biden and that he didn't like Donald Trump.
00:18:40.400
So what has been the Democrat response to this?
00:18:45.500
Has it been to cool it for us to look around and say, OK, like we've got to figure this out
00:18:50.160
because if President Trump or any politician is assassinated, that is going to change the
00:18:57.800
country far more than anything has ever changed the country for the worse.
00:19:01.800
And I don't know with where we are now, morally, religiously, politically, ideologically, culturally,
00:19:08.980
all of it, that we will be able to come back together.
00:19:19.640
Has it been that a moment of self-reflection and peace?
00:19:23.220
Or has it been what you probably expect, something far worse and far more disturbing?
00:19:29.000
Let me pause and tell you about our second sponsor.
00:19:35.580
Like I said, when I got some blood work the other day from my functional medicine doctor,
00:19:41.120
she praised my iron levels, which is literally the first time in my life that I have had normal
00:19:48.920
I've taken all kinds of iron supplements, and this is the only kind that's helped.
00:19:53.640
And even as I'm working through my health journey, one thing that I'm very thankful for
00:20:01.740
I've even avoided allergies this year, it seems like.
00:20:04.820
And I really attribute that to my supplements from WeHeart Nutrition that I started taking
00:20:13.360
And I didn't even go through postpartum hair loss or anything.
00:20:16.540
Again, I think it's because of the nutrients that are in WeHeart Nutrition and the fact
00:20:22.060
that they come in the most bioavailable form so our body can actually absorb them.
00:20:28.760
So if you order your supplements and for whatever reason you're not happy with them, you can return
00:20:34.560
them even if the bottle is empty and you will get your money back.
00:20:57.460
We literally do not hear from him anymore, which is kind of scary when you start wondering,
00:21:07.060
Like, who is at the helm if something goes really wrong until the next president is inaugurated?
00:21:18.120
I mean, he's basically an absentee president right now.
00:21:22.900
But someone in Biden's name put out this statement on X.
00:21:27.420
I have been briefed by my team regarding what federal law enforcement is investigating as
00:21:32.800
a possible assassination attempt of former President Trump.
00:21:36.260
I am relieved that the former president is unharmed.
00:21:40.640
Because as we'll see in just a second, like, I mean, they've been talking about justified
00:21:46.420
violence against Trump because he is a fascist dictator threat to democracy for a very long
00:21:53.340
If that's the case, why wouldn't you want him to be harmed?
00:21:57.480
As other people have pointed out, it's either one or the other.
00:22:00.180
Either he's not really Hitler and you're relieved that he's unharmed or he is basically
00:22:09.460
like Hitler and you're not really relieved that he's unharmed.
00:22:16.660
Unless they're playing us, which politicians would never do.
00:22:19.960
As I have said many times, President Biden said, there is no place for political violence
00:22:30.920
That's interesting, as we will hear in just a second.
00:22:45.120
Republicans outraged over a possible assassination attempt.
00:22:50.680
Quote, they are going to keep trying to kill Trump.
00:22:55.480
So again, it's the headline is not about the assassination attempt.
00:22:58.780
It's that people could possibly be angry about it.
00:23:03.860
Another chance for Trump to frame Democrats as dangerous has emerged.
00:23:10.800
He's seizing on this opportunity when he again almost lost his life.
00:23:15.400
If it's his fault that he is framing Democrats as dangerous, maybe it's because they've proved
00:23:28.420
Donald Trump is a threat to democracy and saying so is not incitement.
00:23:36.680
Trump brings these assassination attempts on himself.
00:23:39.980
That's even worse than, well, what was she wearing?
00:23:45.060
I mean, these are the people who championed Me Too, who rightly said that there is never
00:23:50.360
any justification for a man assaulting a woman, no matter what she did.
00:23:56.840
There is never any excuse for sexual harassment, no matter what a woman is wearing or what she
00:24:02.900
did, but in this case, it's Trump's fault that he has been almost murdered in the past
00:24:13.180
Because he is welcoming explicitly this violence?
00:24:16.920
No, because he has different opinions than Democrats.
00:24:20.780
So just keep in mind, when they're saying that Donald Trump is bringing these assassination
00:24:27.340
attempts upon himself, what they're saying is that because Donald Trump believes the things
00:24:32.960
he does, says the things that he does about, say, immigration, it is justified for someone
00:24:41.700
Who else agrees with Donald Trump about immigration?
00:24:48.340
So what they are saying is that an assassination attempt on you would also be justified.
00:24:53.180
You'll remember that really dark and disturbing speech that President Biden gave a couple years
00:24:59.600
ago when he was standing in front of that blood-red wall flanked by the military.
00:25:05.540
And he said these extreme MAGA Republicans are a threat to democracy, they're radicals,
00:25:12.800
And they acted like they were just talking about Donald Trump or just talking about these
00:25:21.600
But when you say MAGA Republicans, you're talking about the tens of millions of people
00:25:26.560
that voted for Donald Trump and his MAGA platform.
00:25:30.180
So you're saying half of the country is a threat to democracy.
00:25:34.740
They'll say something like this, and they'll say just, you know, for PR purposes that they're
00:25:44.540
NBC News, man in custody after Trump golf club incident was once convicted of man in
00:25:51.300
custody after Trump golf club incident was once convicted of possessing a machine gun.
00:25:56.820
And yeah, there he was with another machine gun.
00:26:00.580
Bloomberg, Trump blames Harris rhetoric, seizing on assassination attempt.
00:26:08.940
No other president has used an assassination attempt to inflame American politics the way
00:26:14.560
Again, it's Trump that's doing the inflaming, not the Biden supporter who tried to murder
00:26:25.460
After the attack in July, Trump engaged in a self-indulgent ramble at the GOP convention.
00:26:30.560
Actually, that was like one of the best speeches that Donald Trump ever gave when he focused on
00:26:37.600
Is that self-indulgent to talk about the fact that you were almost murdered, that a bullet
00:26:45.360
It's incredible that we have stopped talking about that.
00:26:52.040
The author of this article acknowledges he left that for his surrogates in the party.
00:26:56.360
This time, he's not even bothering with any of that outsourcing and is instead using his
00:27:01.180
latest incident to blame his political opponents, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, for putting him
00:27:08.320
In other words, Trump is blaming two possible attempts to kill him on pretty much anyone
00:27:14.680
But that's funny because Democrats are blaming him for being almost murdered, for not agreeing
00:27:24.160
At this point, with two apparent plots against Tim Foyle, a more thoughtful person would consider
00:27:28.720
what he could do to help turn down the temperature in the nation.
00:27:33.080
So it's Trump's responsibility to turn down the temperature, even though he is the victim
00:27:40.760
Not the media's job, not the Democrats job, not the people who are apparently in some ways,
00:27:50.700
in some subsets of the left, inspiring these kinds of people to enact this kind of violence.
00:28:01.900
OK, let's see what else the media had to say about this.
00:28:15.360
Today's apparent assassination attempt comes amid increasingly fierce rhetoric on the campaign
00:28:23.760
Vance continue to make baseless claims about Haitian immigrants in Ohio.
00:28:33.000
It is because Donald Trump pointed out residents of Springfield, Ohio, are concerned about the
00:28:47.320
That's why he was almost murdered on the golf course again.
00:28:51.440
Blaming him for his own would-be murder is insane behavior.
00:29:02.920
I didn't agree with Donald Trump's strategy and bringing up the pet's story, because even
00:29:07.800
if there is some truth to it, and we don't really know if there's truth to that part of
00:29:12.800
the story, as I've said many times, it sounded too fantastical.
00:29:16.860
And there are actually bigger and provable problems going on there.
00:29:22.060
Of course, that's what happens when you import tens of thousands of people who have no idea
00:29:28.200
what a first world country is like, no idea about the culture.
00:29:31.820
It's really not fair to the immigrants who have been suddenly imported.
00:29:37.280
It's also not fair to the Springfield residents who have had to deal with increased crime,
00:29:43.320
higher housing prices, and a more difficult time finding a job because they cannot compete
00:29:49.800
against the subsidized Haitian immigrants in their community.
00:29:55.360
And these Haitian immigrants are not being held to the same standard when it comes to the
00:29:59.900
driving rules and regulations, which is why both an 11-year-old boy and a 75-year-old
00:30:08.180
woman have been killed due to the reckless driving of Haitian immigrants in that area.
00:30:17.540
And these Springfield residents are allowed to voice their fear and to voice their worry
00:30:25.640
and to ask their elected officials to protect them.
00:30:30.100
Someone's got to advocate on behalf of American citizens.
00:30:34.380
Unfortunately, many people, I would say almost everyone in the media, but also some Christians
00:30:41.140
believe that loving your neighbor means selling out your fellow citizens for non-citizens.
00:30:49.780
We can love all of our neighbors, no matter their background and no matter their nationality.
00:30:57.080
But we also have to ask ourselves, what is right?
00:31:00.440
And what is right is protecting the citizenship and the rights that come with citizenship of our
00:31:07.880
That is like the sole primary, at least, responsibility of the government.
00:31:13.500
And it is OK for us to put the well-being and the rights and the safety and security of our
00:31:22.860
We, at the very least, have to prioritize that and care about that.
00:31:27.600
And Lester Holt is saying because Donald Trump and his campaign have brought that up,
00:31:32.180
totally legitimate argument, that he deserves to be murdered.
00:31:35.000
Again, who else believes the same things that Donald Trump is saying about immigration and
00:31:42.580
Most of the Springfield residents, most of you out there.
00:31:46.100
And Lester Holt is saying, no, like, if you say that, if you hold to that belief, don't
00:31:57.480
Do you expect to hear anything from the Trump campaign about toning down the rhetoric, toning
00:32:03.980
down the violence, or would that be atypical of the former president?
00:32:08.440
I would love for us to have a unity type moment, but I think it's probably going to be pretty
00:32:16.100
Again, is it Donald Trump's responsibility to tone down the rhetoric?
00:32:26.280
What he said about Taylor Swift on Sunday morning was absolutely athinine.
00:32:35.440
So I'm not saying that I agree with all of Donald Trump's rhetoric, but nothing that
00:32:40.680
he says justifies the actions that have been taken against him.
00:32:45.380
And that, again, is insane behavior and an insane mentality to say something like that.
00:32:51.440
Okay, we'll get into more of this in just a second.
00:32:53.480
Let me pause and tell you about our next sponsor.
00:33:07.940
Their towels and sheets, it's all I can use now.
00:33:13.660
I put in storage all of my other sheets because I only ever want to sleep on Cozy Earth.
00:33:24.380
I have this quarter zip that I just got from Cozy Earth that I wear all the time, even when
00:33:30.740
They offer a 100-night sleep trial for their sheets.
00:33:34.200
So if you're not completely in love with their sheet set, after three months, you can return
00:33:44.440

00:33:49.560
Go to CozyEarth.com slash relatable, code relatable.
00:33:56.800
The callousness of the responses by some people on the left is just so disheartening, not
00:34:07.520
Rachel Venman, she's the wife of Alexander Venman.
00:34:11.460
Like you remember, he testified against Trump in the first impeachment hearing against Trump.
00:34:17.580
She's also host of the Suburban Women Problem podcast.
00:34:33.060
Bill Kristol, he used to be, I think, considered a conservative.
00:34:37.800
He is the editor at the left-wing rag, the Bulwark.
00:34:42.560
And he said, Walls should consider canceling the debate with Vance.
00:34:46.360
Vance would use his time on a national stage to slander minorities, further poison the national
00:34:51.660
discourse, and incite potential violence with lies.
00:34:55.420
Walls could rebut Vance's falsehoods, but why risk the further incitements?
00:35:10.040
That's going to be an interesting debate, by the way.
00:35:14.680
I think I'm going to help provide coverage for that on Blaze TV, and I would not assume
00:35:30.880
But I would not count Walls out, just like I didn't count Kamala out.
00:35:40.780
Walls is naturally, I know this is an aside, we'll talk more about this, but Walls is naturally
00:35:52.420
I actually find, personally, J.D. Vance likable, but I can understand, just kind of, I understand.
00:36:00.440
I understand why a lot of suburban women might feel that he is a little bit too brash and
00:36:08.680
And so I would be wary of that if I were the Trump campaign.
00:36:19.560
He thanked everyone for their concern and well wishes.
00:36:25.780
He thanked Secret Service as well as law enforcement, where he is.
00:36:30.400
He said, as the 45th President of the United States and the Republican nominee in the upcoming
00:36:35.620
presidential election, you know, he says that he was safe and the job was done absolutely
00:36:46.540
I would say, like, that's a unifying statement, and he also lays blame on Democrats.
00:36:57.600
He said, the rhetoric lies as exemplified by the false statements made by Comrade Kamala
00:37:02.060
Harris during the rigged and highly partisan ABC debate, and all of the ridiculous lawsuits
00:37:06.800
specifically designed to inflict damage on Joe's and Kamala's political opponent, me, has
00:37:13.740
taken, sorry, he just makes me giggle the way he talks sometimes, has taken politics
00:37:19.360
in our country to a whole new level of hatred, abuse, and distrust.
00:37:24.880
Because of this communist left rhetoric, the bullets are flying, and it will only get worse.
00:37:29.520
I mean, he's right to point out that communism has always unconditionally been a very violent
00:37:36.420
Our borders must be closed, and the terrorist criminals and mentally insane immediately removed
00:37:41.100
from American cities and towns, deported back to their countries of origin.
00:37:44.920
This is the kind of rhetoric that the media said incites violence and justifies murder.
00:37:53.900
Tens of millions of Americans, and they happen to be right, by the way, to believe that.
00:37:58.660
We want people to come into our country that love our nation and come in legally through
00:38:08.840
We cannot let them laugh any longer, make America great again.
00:38:11.920
Like, I think that this is really the heart behind why Trump ran for president, is to truly
00:38:18.560
ensure that America's jobs and that their wealth and that our wealth and that our place in the
00:38:31.060
Sincerely, I think the driving force behind Kamala Harris's campaign is abortion.
00:38:38.560
The person who believes in borders and keeping our country safe and secure and prominent and
00:38:45.500
prosperous or the person whose entire career has been dedicated to making it as easy as
00:38:50.740
possible to abort children through all nine months, who voted against the Born Alive Survivors
00:38:54.920
Protection Act, who also, while she was attorney general, while she was district attorney in
00:38:59.900
California, made it as easy as possible for criminal legal aliens.
00:39:04.420
So legal aliens who have committed more than just the crime of illegally crossing the border
00:39:09.100
to stay like she is part of the reason why Kate Steinle was murdered in San Francisco in 2015.
00:39:17.720
And so, like, when you're looking at which side is more violent, like which side encourages chaos
00:39:27.240
And so it's just it's projection, everything that we're seeing from the left.
00:39:32.680
DeSantis, being the governor of Florida where this occurred, made a statement, too.
00:39:36.620
He said the state of Florida will be conducting its own investigation regarding the attempted
00:39:40.440
assassination at Trump International Golf Club.
00:39:43.180
The people deserve the truth about the would-be assassin and how he was able to get within 500
00:39:47.480
yards of the former president and current GOP nominee.
00:39:52.180
Like, I still think he's doing such a great job as the governor of Florida.
00:40:01.000
Let's look at how the left has played a role in this.
00:40:09.360
I am not saying that criticizing Donald Trump or criticizing anyone is inciting violence.
00:40:16.240
I am not saying even that all comparisons to a dictator or a tyrant are incitements of violence.
00:40:24.700
I am not saying that intense disagreement is an incitement of violence.
00:40:29.560
I am not saying that we have to pretend that we all get along, that we are on morally equal
00:40:37.460
sides and that we just have these slight divisions when it comes to certain policies.
00:40:49.940
Truly, our disagreements between the right and the left are very fundamental.
00:41:00.540
Maybe not as deep in every single area on every single policy, but in a lot of ways,
00:41:07.340
we are talking about disagreements about human nature and where we come from and where we
00:41:14.240
So we've got some really big differences on the right and the left, and I am not saying
00:41:19.020
that highlighting those differences, defending your position is an incitement to violence.
00:41:26.180
But calling for violence, talking about hurting the other side, especially physically, vindictively,
00:41:37.800
like I do think that is an incitement to violence.
00:41:41.000
And yes, when you say things that are not true, as in Donald Trump is Hitler or he's worse than Hitler,
00:41:53.940
When you lie like that, because that's not true, that's based in irrational hate that
00:41:59.620
someone who is already unstable is going to latch onto and then capitalize on to inflict
00:42:06.640
When you spread those kinds of malicious lies, yes, you are encouraging a level of violence.
00:42:13.400
So listen, I'm not talking about disagreement and debate and even intense scrutiny and criticism.
00:42:22.100
I think that's totally fair game without being accused of inspiring violence.
00:42:27.720
But the level of disgust and irrational hate and encouragement of retribution by many Democrat
00:42:35.540
politicians, I do think has created this culture of violence that we see disproportionately
00:42:43.380
And I will go through the examples, the most prominent examples of how this has happened over
00:42:48.840
But first, let's look at what I'm talking about.
00:42:52.320
These are montages that have been created, the first by Trump war room of Kamala Harris and
00:42:57.960
the Democrats explicitly calling for violence or joking about violence, which we just don't
00:43:09.500
If you had to be stuck in an elevator with either President Trump, Mike Pence or Jeff Sessions,
00:43:22.500
Chris always asks me, don't I wish I were debating him?
00:43:25.900
No, I wish during high school I could take him behind the gym.
00:43:30.920
I said, no, I said if we were in high school I'd take him behind the gym and beat the hell
00:43:35.100
I just don't even know why there aren't uprisings all over the country.
00:43:38.660
Maybe there will be that you cannot be civil with a political party that wants to destroy
00:43:50.500
And I wish I could say that the context for those clips make it better.
00:43:57.120
And the next compilation, the full version is two and a half minutes.
00:44:05.680
They're still going to have to go out and put a bullet in Donald Trump.
00:44:22.100
I have thought an awful lot about blowing up the White House.
00:44:27.280
A Missouri state senator is under investigation by the Secret Service after saying she hopes
00:44:40.120
So we're not just talking about disagreement there.
00:44:51.020
We're not talking about a thoughtful analysis about the ways, you know, of the ways that Donald
00:44:56.240
Trump reflects some Hitlerian characteristics or behavior.
00:45:01.720
We are talking about explicit calls to violence.
00:45:05.100
The Trump fans campaign released a statement yesterday that offered examples of the Democrats
00:45:13.100
calling for violence over the years or different statements that have that have compared Donald
00:45:20.780
Trump to a horrific fascist that is going to bring this country to ruin, take away everyone's
00:45:29.080
Like you could see how an unstable person would hear that over and over again and believe that
00:45:34.020
he is going to become a hero by taking out Hitler 2.0, right?
00:45:37.460
And they know that they know that at this point and they persist in it.
00:45:42.920
Anyway, Joe Biden said it's time to put Trump in a bullseye.
00:45:47.360
Joe Biden said, I mean this from the bottom of my heart.
00:45:52.960
Joe Biden said there is one existential threat.
00:45:59.740
He's literally a threat to everything America stands for.
00:46:05.400
Trump and MAGA Republicans are a threat to the very soul of this country.
00:46:11.220
Remember the speech that we referenced earlier.
00:46:15.020
Trump and the MAGA Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations
00:46:24.880
Are they going to put people's lives in danger?
00:46:38.180
Are they going to put people's lives in danger?
00:46:40.240
Are they going to endanger the planet by not healing the climate change?
00:46:46.420
So, I mean, this is the guy who is the governor of a state in which at least eight babies
00:46:51.820
who survived abortions were left to die because of the health care policies and the
00:47:04.040
We've played the clip of him at a Planned Parenthood rally saying that he is more pro-choice
00:47:12.460
He claims that Nancy Pelosi told him to tone it down on abortion and he can't.
00:47:17.980
He is an ardent supporter of the killing of unborn children, and yet he says that Republicans
00:47:26.640
Nancy Pelosi said that Donald Trump is a threat to our democracy of the kind that we have not
00:47:33.300
Representative Jasmine Crockett, MAGA, they are threats to us domestically.
00:47:38.760
Representative Dan Goldman, that Trump has to be eliminated because he's destructive to
00:47:48.260
Harris surrogate Liz Cheney says Trump presents a fundamental threat to the republic, and we
00:47:56.040
Representative Maxine Waters, are Trump supporters preparing a civil war against us?
00:48:04.740
And you'll also remember that the federal government claims that it's right wing white
00:48:12.680
supremacists that are the greatest domestic terrorist threat to this country, not the
00:48:17.660
rioters that we saw destroying cities in 2020, the summer of George Floyd.
00:48:24.900
I mean, not these people who are trying to assassinate Donald Trump, not these people who are calling
00:48:30.800
for explicit violence against Donald Trump, but these organizations of apparent right wing
00:48:37.100
white supremacists that we don't even know about.
00:48:40.600
We don't even know any of their group names, but they're just out there and they're apparently
00:48:46.460
They didn't kill anybody, but they're apparently the biggest threat.
00:48:52.680
Representative Eric Sorensen, he is the greatest threat to law and order that we have in our
00:49:00.900
They're still going to have to go out and put a bullet in Donald Trump.
00:49:08.160
Well, here's an organization that is doing everything they can to stop violence, and they
00:49:14.300
are stopping violence for the most prominent victims of violence in this country, and that
00:49:21.140
is the unborn child who about a million times every year is killed inside the womb.
00:49:29.500
And Preborn is a network of clinics trying to do everything they can to save those babies.
00:49:38.780
They offer free sonograms to moms who come in and need more information about pregnancy,
00:49:47.940
And when a mom sees that baby on the ultrasound and she hears that beating heart, she is so
00:49:56.120
And Preborn is there for her to make that life-affirming choice.
00:50:04.880
If you can go to preborn.com slash Allie, donate that $28.
00:50:09.400
You can help save a life, but donate whatever you can.
00:50:29.880
They published a series in May, starting in May, called What American Fascism Would Look
00:50:36.600
And the front cover is Donald Trump looking like Adolf Hitler.
00:50:43.340
Donald Trump with the little Hitler stash right there, as you can see if you're watching on
00:50:50.900
She is a former Democratic senator from Missouri, saying that actually Trump is worse than Hitler
00:50:59.220
A lot of people have tried to draw similarities between Mussolini and Hitler and the use of
00:51:05.920
the terminology like vermin and the drive that those men had towards autocracy and dictatorship.
00:51:14.580
The difference, though, I think makes Donald Trump even more dangerous, and that is he has
00:51:22.400
He is not trying to expand the boundaries of the United States of America.
00:51:26.800
He's not trying to overcome a neighboring country like Putin is in Ukraine.
00:51:30.640
I don't really understand how that makes Trump more dangerous that he's not trying to do that.
00:51:38.340
I know we have this idea that people in Congress are smart, that they're smarter than us.
00:51:47.840
It's not just that we're seeing these soundbites and we're like, oh, they seem dumb, but I'm
00:51:52.100
If you're a politician, you're in the halls of power.
00:51:58.640
I have been a pro-life witness in Congress, House Congressional Committee meeting, and
00:52:07.160
And I thought I was intimidated at first because I was like, I'm going to hear some really good
00:52:12.040
Am I going to have a response to their defense of abortion?
00:52:19.420
Like, they gave me no better arguments than I saw by the, you know, from the random Twitter
00:52:29.040
And I am not saying that I am Elon Musk brilliant by any means.
00:52:37.560
I just know my arguments when it comes to these issues, but especially on the issue of abortion.
00:52:43.980
And I was like, oh, my gosh, this is I don't even feel fair going against you, Debbie
00:52:49.280
Wasserman Schultz, because, like, your arguments are so dumb.
00:52:56.700
So understand that you all of you out there are smarter than these Congress people.
00:53:01.560
So if you ever hear them give an argument and you're like, they surely didn't say something
00:53:10.400
That's the best argument that they can possibly give.
00:53:13.240
And, like, giving power to people that are not smart and also have no moral compass is
00:53:20.920
That's why we live in this cakeistocracy right now.
00:53:24.320
Let's give some examples of this violence, how it's manifested itself over the years, because
00:53:32.140
I went through some of them on my Instagram, and I saved this to my election 2024 highlight
00:53:38.880
You can share them if you need to, but you'll remember in 2017 when Steve Scalise, the Republican
00:53:45.240
congressman, he was seriously wounded when a gunman opened fire on members of the Republican
00:53:57.500
This 66-year-old gunman was a supporter of Bernie Sanders.
00:54:02.160
He called Trump a traitor who has destroyed our democracy.
00:54:08.740
And he was also heard yelling at the time, this is for health care.
00:54:14.280
Now, you'll remember it was very popular during the 2016 election and even after for Democrats,
00:54:21.080
including Bernie Sanders, to say that Republicans are going to kill tens of millions of people.
00:54:26.220
I think the exact number was like 24 million people or something like that because they are
00:54:30.460
going to destroy health care and they don't support socialized health care like Bernie Sanders did.
00:54:36.560
And so an unstable person hears something like that and they're thinking, oh my gosh,
00:54:42.120
wow, I'm going to save 24 million people by taking out these Republicans.
00:54:46.940
And again, it would be one thing if that statement were true.
00:54:53.720
In 2022, Kaler Ellingson, he was an 18-year-old Republican.
00:54:59.760
He was killed by a man who ran him over and this man was sentenced to five years in prison
00:55:09.640
And the man who ran him over, and I'm really trying to avoid saying their names because,
00:55:14.500
again, I just wonder if these people do this for fame to be seen as some kind of hero and
00:55:19.720
I might have said some of these people's names before, but I'm trying to avoid that from
00:55:29.280
And he said that this teen, this 18-year-old who lost his life, who was run over, was a
00:55:42.260
In Michigan in 2022, a former nurse named Joan Jacobson, 84 years old,
00:55:49.180
was canvassing with the right to life of West Michigan when a man and his wife told Jacobson
00:55:58.320
Prop 3 enshrined so-called reproductive rights, abortion into the state constitution, allowing
00:56:05.080
it for virtually any reason through nine months.
00:56:07.500
She was going house to house trying to convince people to vote against Prop 3.
00:56:11.480
When this 84-year-old woman walked away from this discussion, the man shot her in the back.
00:56:22.320
He pled no contest to three charges, assault with a dangerous weapon, careless discharge,
00:56:31.140
He was sentenced to 12 months probation and 100 hours of community service for shooting
00:56:48.820
A man was arrested outside of his home in charge with trying to assassinate the Supreme
00:56:54.920
The would-be assassin allegedly traveled from his home in California to Kavanaugh's home in
00:57:01.520
According to an affidavit filed after his arrest, the man said he had been upset by a school
00:57:06.820
shooting in Uvalde, Texas, and believed Kavanaugh would vote to loosen gun regulations.
00:57:11.900
But you will also remember this was right around the time.
00:57:14.840
This was after the Dobbs decision had been leaked.
00:57:19.160
And so it was known that he was one of the justices that was going to vote for overturning
00:57:27.440
And this happened amidst a lot of rhetoric, you'll remember, online from Democrat activists
00:57:36.360
actually saying that Clarence Thomas and Kavanaugh and other conservative justices should be
00:57:44.420
There were activists and protesters outside of their homes at this time because they voted
00:57:49.320
in accordance with the Constitution on the Dobbs decision.
00:57:57.520
Mark Crosby was praying at a Planned Parenthood in Baltimore alongside an 84-year-old pro-lifer
00:58:05.280
when both of them were brutally attacked and knocked unconscious.
00:58:11.660
Crosby tried to help his friend, but then he was also knocked to the ground.
00:58:15.660
He sustained traumatic injuries to the head, including a fractured bone in his face, blindness
00:58:21.540
in one eye, two fractured fingers, severe bruising.
00:58:25.920
The orbit around his eye had to be replaced with metal because it was completely smashed
00:58:35.500
Also, you'll remember, just going out of order here, I forgot about in 2017 when Rand Paul
00:58:43.020
Now, this apparently, according to the neighbor, was some kind of like domestic dispute or not
00:58:52.360
domestic dispute, but just like a neighbor disagreement about the leaves in the yard.
00:58:56.740
But it's really hard to believe considering how prominent of a Republican Rand Paul has
00:59:07.780
Apparently, his lungs have never been the same since then because of this person's political
00:59:13.740
So I don't know of mirroring instances on the other side.
00:59:21.760
I mean, I know the awful Charlottesville incident where there was a woman who was run over.
00:59:29.700
Are there instances of prominent Democrats being assassinated or almost assassinated?
00:59:40.700
Because if not, I don't think it's Republicans who need to be chastised for rhetoric.
00:59:46.760
I mean, and then we didn't even include the recent slew of those who claim to be transgender
00:59:53.660
who have inflicted violence on their communities.
00:59:58.020
Covenant Christian, for example, when she said explicitly in her manifesto that she was going
01:00:04.960
out to kill Christians and Christian conservatives and transphobes.
01:00:10.540
And allegedly, the shooter in Georgia also felt that he was defending the cause of transgenderism.
01:00:18.720
So, like, I'm not saying that everyone on the left is violent.
01:00:23.240
I'm not saying everyone on the left wants violence or is promoting violence.
01:00:27.180
There are violent, baddie people on both sides.
01:00:31.040
I think that there are kind, considerate people on both sides.
01:00:35.140
But when we look at the instances of violence, it seems to come from the party whose keystone,
01:00:41.860
who's like rallying cry right now, is murder of babies inside the womb.
01:00:48.540
And, like, I can say that that party stands for murdering babies inside the womb because
01:01:01.040
That is literally a key part of the platform of the Democrat Party and a huge part of Kamala
01:01:16.300
But then you start to get far more worrying thoughts that maybe this is intentional, that
01:01:29.480
Can you imagine that that kind of side is going to take Donald Trump winning the election
01:01:39.500
I cried when I saw what was happening on TV on January 6th.
01:01:44.860
But remember, the only person that died that day was an unarmed protester, Ashley Babbitt,
01:01:52.340
And so that's not even, like, a good comparison.
01:01:54.880
And even if that was the only counterfactual you had, like, it's still very lopsided when
01:02:01.380
we're looking at who is inflicting the terrorism and the violence, right?
01:02:09.760
And it's something to keep in your tool belt as you are having these conversations with
01:02:17.680
My preference is that we would be able to debate and discuss and critique and even criticize
01:02:23.740
without there being any threat of violence anywhere, no matter how much I disagree with
01:02:33.340
Of course, I want us to have these peaceful but lively debates.
01:02:43.760
I pray for him to help this nation and to change hearts and to change minds.
01:02:49.200
That's the only way this is going to be fixed at all.
01:02:53.360
And may Christians continue to be lights in the darkness.
01:02:56.880
Don't believe that speaking the truth in love is divisive or is wrong or is unloving.
01:03:13.560
Like, remember Stephen, full of grace and truth, who was so kind and shared the gospel
01:03:23.620
So don't measure your obedience by people's reaction to you.
01:03:30.180
Please continue to be a refuge of clarity and courage in this age of chaos and cowardice.
01:03:39.340
And remember that you are immortal until God calls you home.
01:03:43.640
He has planned every single one of your days before any of them came to be.
01:03:47.600
And all of this that we're seeing is a fear tactic to tell you that the price is too high
01:03:51.820
to stand up for what you know is good, right, and true.
01:03:54.760
Or something even just that is controversial, like voting for President Trump.
01:04:02.720
Do the next right thing in faith with excellence and for the glory of God.
01:04:08.800
His eternal plan of redemption is always going off without a hitch.
01:04:11.580
The earth is the Lord's and the fullness therein.
01:04:22.320

All this craziness that we are talking about, the fear, the anxiety that you might feel,
01:05:32.200
I want you to know that you are not alone and that when it comes to what is biblically
01:05:37.200
true, I'm not even talking about more nuanced political disagreements or debates, but when
01:05:42.060
it comes to what is biblically true, when we're talking about life inside the womb, when we're
01:05:45.920
talking about the definition of marriage, when we're talking about the reality of male and
01:05:49.740
female, when we're talking about all these issues that are considered culture war issues,
01:05:54.640
these controversial issues that we're not supposed to touch because it's unloving or
01:05:59.000
unempathetic, like we need to be reminded what is true.
01:06:02.500
We need to be reminded that on these things, on the biblical things, like we are on the
01:06:12.480
We are less than two weeks away, which is just, oh my gosh, I can't believe that it's
01:06:17.480
Like we've been working so hard on this for you guys.
01:06:22.760
I want you to come and worship with like-minded women, with Francesca Battistelli.
01:06:28.720
I want you to hear from amazing teaching from people like Rosaria Butterfield, Elisa Childers,
01:06:36.240
You are going to hear the best defenses of the faith, the most igniting and rallying encouragement
01:06:46.140
Abby is going to talk specifically to moms, but not only to moms, but she is a mom of
01:06:52.800
And so she's got a lot of encouragement and advice for us.
01:06:55.360
We're also going to hear from Candice Cameron-Bure.
01:06:57.180
She's going to be on stage with me answering my questions about how to champion our faith
01:07:02.880
in all different spheres, whether it's at home or in the workplace or in entertainment.
01:07:08.960
And of course, yours truly is going to give a speech too.
01:07:12.240
And we've got even a surprise at the end and we still have tickets.
01:07:27.160
If you're a Christian woman, you're going to love this.
01:07:30.320
And also, as we're talking about these very contentious conversations in this election season,
01:07:35.340
I wrote the book Toxic Empathy and it's out October 15th.
01:07:40.100
And this is a guidebook for how to have conversations about the issues that I just listed.
01:07:46.340
Abortion, gender, sexuality and marriage, immigration, so-called social justice.
01:07:54.860
How progressives use toxic empathy to manipulate women into believing that the left-wing side of
01:08:03.500
And then I give a response to that manipulation tactic with the truth of God's word and also
01:08:11.480
just kind of enlarging our compassion to look at both sides of the moral equation when it
01:08:18.160
And so if you want to be fully equipped and fully prepared to have these conversations about
01:08:24.300
these topics in this election season, you can pre-order the book.
01:08:30.320
It's a short book, but it is jam-packed with the information and arguments that you need.
01:08:36.780
