00:00:00.700 Kamala Harris is gunning for the white Christian female vote, but she is losing black male voters.
00:00:08.400 She's got a plan to win them back, and it has to do with weed.
00:00:13.140 Also, old footage has uncovered of Kamala Harris saying that she pushed as Attorney General of California
00:00:20.820 the policy that allowed for murderers in prison to change, quote unquote, their sex and go into female prisons.
00:00:30.000 Also, at the end of this episode, we will examine the trend that is witchcraft among women.
00:00:37.320 Why is this on the rise?
00:00:38.920 What does it mean?
00:00:40.320 And how should we look at this from a biblical perspective?
00:00:43.660 We've got all of this and a lot more on today's episode of Relatable.
00:00:47.200 It's brought to you by our friends at Good Ranchers.
00:00:48.800 Go to goodranchers.com.

00:00:51.540 That's goodranchers.com, code Allie.
00:01:00.000 Hey, guys.
00:01:03.900 Welcome to Relatable.
00:01:04.840 Happy Wednesday.
00:01:05.980 Hope everyone is having a wonderful week so far.
00:01:09.620 We've got a lot to get into today.
00:01:11.600 A lot to get into.
00:01:13.320 First, I just want to thank you guys for your support of Toxic Empathy over the past couple
00:01:17.800 days or days since the book came out.
00:01:20.080 It came out yesterday, and I think the highest we were on the Amazon list was number 16 of all
00:01:27.160 books overall.
00:01:28.560 There are thousands of books on Amazon, and we were number 16 yesterday.
00:01:32.620 I think we're number 22 right now, but here's what we got to do.
00:01:36.080 Here's what we got to do, guys, because I was looking at this Amazon list, and who is at
00:01:40.220 the top of the Amazon list of books overall?
00:01:43.260 And I mean, there are some books that I want to be on there, like, you know, Casey Means,
00:01:47.140 She's Awesome.
00:01:47.740 I want her book to be up there.
00:01:49.140 But then we've got The Message by Ta-Nehisi Coates, and he is crazy.
00:01:55.700 And he is far left, and we don't want his book to be number seven anymore.
00:02:01.000 We want Toxic Empathy to be number seven.
00:02:03.260 So if y'all could help me out, and we could do everything that we possibly can to get Toxic
00:02:10.000 Empathy in the top 10 on Amazon overall, that would be awesome.
00:02:14.300 And this is not just for me, because there's nothing really that happens to me if this moves
00:02:19.480 from number 16 to number 10 or number even, you know, number two.
00:02:24.740 But I really want people to hear the message in this.
00:02:28.940 I really want people to know how their compassion is being exploited by bad actors, because you
00:02:36.480 and I might know the truth about abortion, the truth about illegal immigration, the truth
00:02:40.660 about gender ideology.
00:02:42.100 But a lot of people, even professing Christians, don't really know.
00:02:46.960 They think they're being loving by being nuanced on abortion.
00:02:50.980 They think they're being kind by either stating their pronouns or simply not talking about the
00:02:56.400 destruction of transgenderism.
00:02:59.200 They think that love is love is a fine motto that they don't really have any rebuttal to.
00:03:04.800 They might think that no human being is illegal rings kind of true, and that Jesus told us to
00:03:13.380 love the foreigner.
00:03:14.840 We are commanded to love the sojourner in the Old Testament, and so maybe we shouldn't deport
00:03:20.340 people.
00:03:21.580 There are Christians, Christians who love Jesus, who think that social justice is justice, that
00:03:29.940 either defunding the police or creating programs that are soft on crime or incentivize homelessness
00:03:41.840 or open drug use or violence, that these programs, that these policies are actually loving, are
00:03:51.820 actually caring for the least of these.
00:03:54.480 And they don't realize not only the dark underbelly in progressive ideology that is actually
00:04:01.300 antithetical to the Christian faith in every way, they also don't realize that the policies
00:04:07.540 that they are supporting, thinking that they're being compassionate and empathetic, are actually
00:04:12.380 destroying the very people they're setting out to help, as well as those on the other side
00:04:19.180 of the issue.
00:04:20.280 So one of the most controversial things we talk about in this book, we go through the
00:04:25.120 five lies, abortion is healthcare, trans women are women, love is love, no human is illegal,
00:04:31.240 social justice is justice.
00:04:32.660 Like you hear those, and those are the actual circular mottos, the mantras that we hear from
00:04:37.660 the left, and that should tell you something, that they use these circular mantras and they
00:04:41.420 never define their terms.
00:04:43.020 Like what does trans women are women mean when you can't define what a woman is?
00:04:46.620 They can't even tell you what a trans woman is.
00:04:48.160 What does love is love mean if you can't define what love is?
00:04:52.280 And that's one of the most controversial chapters, I think, in here, because even among conservatives,
00:04:58.580 you'll see that they've kind of just abandoned the marriage question, that they don't really
00:05:04.920 want to talk about the LGB part of the LGBTQ movement.
00:05:11.120 And they won't really touch the ridiculousness of love is love, but love is love is the same
00:05:18.920 illogical math as trans women are women.
00:05:22.000 I was talking to someone recently who was speaking about the craziness of trans ideology that we've
00:05:28.740 just gone so far in that direction and we've got to go back.
00:05:33.240 And it really started with people announcing their pronouns in the name of being nice or
00:05:38.640 just kind of affirming someone's state of gender identity to be kind to them.
00:05:42.420 But really, it goes back a lot further than that.
00:05:45.160 It really goes back, you could say, in a lot of ways to feminist ideology, the queer theory
00:05:51.660 ideology that was propagated several decades ago.
00:05:55.180 But certainly it goes back to Obergefell.
00:05:57.460 Well, certainly it goes back to redefining marriage, because when we said that marriage
00:06:03.420 no longer has a natural definition of male and female, that it no longer matters whether
00:06:09.700 you can naturally procreate within a marriage, that we can define it however we see fit.
00:06:16.940 Well, then we said that men and women are arbitrary.
00:06:20.740 That is when we decided that men and women are interchangeable.
00:06:24.320 That is when we decided that gender is a social construct, that there's no biological significance
00:06:30.480 to a husband or a wife or a mom or a dad.
00:06:34.380 Now, you could say this goes back to feminist ideology again, but it certainly at least goes
00:06:40.080 back to this idea that there is nothing special about a man and a woman and a husband and a wife.
00:06:46.320 There's nothing special or distinct about marriage.
00:06:49.580 And we go through it and this and the cost of redefining marriage, both for the people
00:06:56.600 in those unions, but also for the children that are being forced to be raised in a motherless
00:07:02.480 and fatherless home.
00:07:04.100 And, you know, that chapter actually really challenged me because I have wrestled with whether or not
00:07:11.760 I think this is a legal question, whether or not the government should be involved in defining
00:07:17.480 marriage at all.
00:07:19.900 And so I walk through the arguments here and I tell you the conclusion that I've come to
00:07:24.340 just based on political history, based on the history of not just marriage, but cultures
00:07:30.160 and countries in general.
00:07:31.320 We look at it from a purely practical perspective.
00:07:34.540 And then, of course, just like in every chapter, we not only look at the secular, scientific,
00:07:39.900 logical, historical perspectives on all of these subjects, but most importantly, the biblical
00:07:45.340 perspective on all of them.
00:07:46.920 On all of these subjects, unfortunately, we've got professing Christians that are extremely
00:07:52.680 mushy.
00:07:53.840 And as I say in this book, I get that because I've been mushy on every single one of these
00:07:59.480 topics.
00:08:00.020 And it was the truth in love given to me graciously and gently, but persuasively that changed my
00:08:06.600 mind.
00:08:07.160 And for the better, people's lives are on the line because of evangelical mushiness on issues
00:08:13.940 like abortion and gender.
00:08:16.200 And so that's why I wrote this book.
00:08:18.640 And if you haven't noticed, the Kamala Harris campaign since the very beginning has been
00:08:22.540 setting her sights on the white Christian woman.
00:08:26.400 And I say white Christian woman because if you look at her advertisements, if you look
00:08:31.560 at her marketing, that's exactly who she has a target on.
00:08:37.520 And what do they use to get the Christian woman?
00:08:40.640 The Christian woman who probably naturally leans conservative, who is kind of in the
00:08:45.900 middle, could be persuaded either way.
00:08:49.540 They use toxic empathy.
00:08:51.700 They use toxic empathy to convince the Christian suburban mom that voting for Kamala Harris will
00:08:57.760 protect miscarriage care.
00:09:00.100 That voting for Kamala Harris will protect the poor migrant.
00:09:04.540 That voting for Kamala Harris will protect the poor black person on the margins of society,
00:09:11.900 will put an end to racism.
00:09:13.760 That voting for Kamala Harris will protect the child who feels like they're born in the wrong
00:09:20.840 body, or will protect the couple that just wants to create a child, the same-sex couple
00:09:28.240 that just wants to rent the womb and to buy the eggs.
00:09:31.800 And it is through toxic empathy that women are persuaded to latch on to those progressive
00:09:37.880 positions.
00:09:39.340 And they're convinced that Kamala Harris is actually moderate.
00:09:42.780 She's just the more loving candidate.
00:09:45.980 And I am very gentle with that person who believes those things in this book, because
00:09:52.060 in some ways I have been that person.
00:09:54.680 This book is not about negating compassion.
00:09:57.120 It's not about getting rid of love.
00:09:59.680 It's actually about leaning into what love actually is and exchanging the superficial, harmful
00:10:06.940 form of empathy for real substantive truth in love, compassion.
00:10:13.280 I love that Elisa Childers, she's an amazing apologist.
00:10:17.540 And I love how she described this book as disarmingly compassionate and emotionally compelling,
00:10:22.740 because as jam-packed as it is with facts and statistics and data and arguments, I also wanted
00:10:31.500 you to see the heart of what I'm saying, that really we are supposed to care for people better
00:10:37.840 than the world does, which means we're not called to superficial, toxic empathy.
00:10:43.060 We're called to something much deeper and better.
00:10:46.420 And that's what this book is about.
00:10:48.720 So at the end, it's not that I want people to not have any empathy.
00:10:52.400 I want people at the end of this to have courage.
00:10:55.160 I want people at the end of this to be more loving and to have a better picture of how
00:10:59.860 we can serve those who are vulnerable than we did before.
00:11:06.480 So I encourage you not only to get this book yourself, please get it for all of your friends,
00:11:13.960 especially your female friends, but get it for your pastor.
00:11:16.940 Get it for your women's minister.
00:11:19.240 See, it's a short book.
00:11:20.780 Took us a long time to condense all of this information.
00:11:23.380 I could easily write a hundred thousand word book.
00:11:25.460 This is probably a little over 50,000 words.
00:11:28.740 It's easy to read.
00:11:30.200 It was important for me to be able to condense and simplify this information.
00:11:34.160 And I just encourage you to get it for your small group.
00:11:37.780 Get it for those who are on the fence, especially before the election.
00:11:40.980 But I mean, it definitely transcends electoral politics.
00:11:45.880 But I urge you to get it for yourself.
00:11:48.460 Get it for those who are on the fence in your life.
00:11:50.440 Get it for those who are politically apathetic.
00:11:52.260 Get it for those in the mushy middle.
00:11:54.160 Get it for those who are easily persuaded by this toxic empathy and just need to know the
00:12:00.580 truth in a way that is not harsh, but is gentle, but to the point.
00:12:05.600 And so that's who this book is for, and it's urgent in the next two weeks to get as many
00:12:11.260 Christians to read this book as possible.
00:12:13.680 So we'll link the Amazon link.
00:12:15.920 It's important to try to order it from Amazon if you can, but you can get it in person wherever
00:12:20.460 books are sold, almost wherever books are sold.
00:12:23.780 Definitely Barnes & Noble and Hobby Lobby Christian bookstores, but order it online.
00:12:29.300 You can go to toxicempathy.com as well to see where else you can buy it.
00:12:33.900 Definitely click that Amazon link in the description.
00:12:36.520 Purchase it.
00:12:37.060 Also, if you've already purchased it, it helps me out a lot to leave a five-star review on
00:12:42.240 Amazon, so please do that because the trolls are out in full force.
00:12:45.540 I'm continuing to get threats over this.
00:12:47.540 I'm continuing to be told that I'm the worst person in the world, to go F myself, that I
00:12:52.260 should be put in a re-education camp, that I know nothing about Christ, that I know nothing
00:12:58.100 about Christianity whatsoever because of the title of this book.
00:13:01.000 Look, the trolls, the progressive activists don't want you to read it, and that's all
00:13:05.320 the more reason that we should.
00:13:07.000 All right, speaking of who Kamala Harris is gunning for, she's actually losing some voters
00:13:13.340 in key demographics, even as she is picking up, unfortunately, some Christian women.
00:13:18.600 So we'll talk about that in just a second.
00:13:20.640 Let me pause and tell you about our first sponsor for the day.
00:13:22.860 It's WeHeart Nutrition.
00:13:24.100 Absolutely love WeHeart Nutrition.
00:13:26.280 I use their supplements every day, their prenatal vitamins, their iron supplements, game changer
00:13:32.240 in my life.
00:13:33.320 They keep me healthy.
00:13:34.760 For the first time in like forever, I got blood work done that came back as really good
00:13:41.320 for my iron levels.
00:13:42.440 I always run anemic.
00:13:43.580 I've taken all different kinds of iron supplements.
00:13:45.940 None of them seem to help.
00:13:48.140 And yet, when I started taking WeHeart Nutrition a few months after I began their iron supplement,
00:13:52.420 I got the blood work back from my functional medicine doctor.
00:13:56.780 She said, your iron levels are amazing.
00:13:58.960 I don't know what else to attribute that to except for WeHeart Nutrition.
00:14:02.920 This is a Christian family-owned company.
00:14:05.100 They're pro-life.
00:14:06.520 They are just amazing people.
00:14:09.380 Right now, if you place an order of $50 or more, you get a free bamboo capsule box.
00:14:15.580 I've got it right here.
00:14:16.680 It's super cute.
00:14:17.380 I've got one of these at home with all-natural bamboo.
00:14:21.060 Got a little heart right there, and then it's got the days of the week engraved on
00:14:24.260 the inside.
00:14:24.900 I just took this with me to a trip.
00:14:26.540 It made it a lot easier to make sure that I'm keeping up with all of my vitamins.
00:14:31.100 If you go to WeHeartNutrition.com and use code Allie, you get 20% off your order.
00:14:36.320 That's WeHeartNutrition.com, code Allie.
00:14:43.520 Okay, I'm just warning you.
00:14:44.700 I've got five ads today.
00:14:47.480 And I took 12 minutes to get to the first one, which means that the rest of the ads
00:14:51.580 are going to be a little bit close together.
00:14:53.860 But look, I just want to say ads are really good.
00:14:57.520 It's how you get to listen to and watch this for free.
00:15:00.860 And the fact that there are so many awesome pro-life Christian conservative companies that
00:15:07.180 want to support the relatable family, that should be something that's super encouraging
00:15:12.340 to us.
00:15:12.800 And I'm just so grateful to all of my sponsors and to all of you who understand when we do
00:15:16.860 have a lot of ads, that it's actually really good news for us and good news for Relatable.
00:15:22.580 Okay, so Kamala Harris.
00:15:24.080 I thought this was so interesting.
00:15:25.960 And Barack Obama is like losing it over this, that Kamala Harris is not doing well with Black
00:15:32.720 voters.
00:15:33.580 The polling shows that Trump could possibly get more, a higher percentage of Black male
00:15:40.220 voters than any Republican since 1960.
00:15:46.160 The Black Americans, they are by far the most politically homogenous group of any demographic,
00:15:53.800 way more than white evangelicals, way more than Hispanics, more than Catholics, more than
00:15:59.420 any other group.
00:16:01.040 They are the most homogenous.
00:16:03.000 The vast majority of them, every single time, will vote for Democrat.
00:16:08.420 It's typically in like the 90th percentile.
00:16:12.300 A Democrat's margin among Black men, specifically among Obama, was 81 points.
00:16:18.640 With Clinton, it was 63 points.
00:16:20.980 Biden, 53 points.
00:16:22.920 And Harris, 41 points.
00:16:24.760 And so this is changing.
00:16:27.420 It's been chipped away every election cycle.
00:16:31.080 Democrats' margin.
00:16:33.340 Oh, sorry.
00:16:33.760 That was actually the margin.
00:16:35.820 Black men, ages 18 to 44.
00:16:39.260 Overall, we still see that that margin is going down.
00:16:46.380 With Harris, overall, Black men are supporting her by 54 points.
00:16:55.140 And so what's interesting is that it's really among young Black men, specifically, that Harris
00:17:02.240 is losing support.
00:17:04.100 The decreasing trend applies to Black women as well, despite the fact that Harris herself could
00:17:11.860 be the first Black female president.
00:17:15.400 Now, it is still by a lot that she is winning with Black women.
00:17:21.860 But Obama was winning Black women by a margin of 93.
00:17:26.900 Clinton, also 93.
00:17:29.380 Biden, 85.
00:17:30.980 Harris, 71.
00:17:33.300 So it's really interesting.
00:17:35.140 As she has been targeting white women, she has lost a lot of the Black female vote.
00:17:41.300 And I think I'm wondering what the reason is for that.
00:17:45.500 If she's just not as inspiring and as relatable as she thought, is it because of her record
00:17:52.320 of putting so many, as some people say, when she was attorney general of California, some
00:17:59.880 people criticize her for putting Black men in jail for marijuana for far longer than they
00:18:05.760 should have been in jail.
00:18:09.440 So maybe it's some of that.
00:18:11.180 But I wonder about the influence of people like Candace Owens, who has obviously a huge
00:18:18.200 audience, but probably the highest proportion on the conservative side of Black listeners
00:18:25.000 and viewers.
00:18:26.820 And she's had a lot of interesting things to say recently about Kamala Harris.
00:18:31.920 And I'm sure it's not only her.
00:18:34.780 There are a lot of people on the conservative side who have been working very hard at appealing
00:18:40.560 to all different kinds of voters, but maybe it is because Kamala Harris just isn't as
00:18:45.640 inspiring as she thinks she is.
00:18:50.460 But Harris, of course, she's got a strategy for trying to win Black men.
00:18:55.800 And this is it.
00:18:57.420 It's called the Opportunity Agenda for Black Men.
00:19:02.080 Provide $1 million forgivable loans up to $20,000 to Black entrepreneurs and others who
00:19:08.680 have a good idea, but don't have their resources, connections or access to capital to get their
00:19:14.460 business off the ground.
00:19:15.380 So like, I just want to translate this.
00:19:18.160 She is saying that she is going to provide forgivable loans to Black entrepreneurs.
00:19:25.460 So if you are a white entrepreneur and you have a good idea, but you don't have the resources
00:19:30.940 or connections or access to capital, you are going to be discriminated against.
00:19:36.340 Because of the color of your skin, you will not have access to this privilege.
00:19:40.920 You won't have access to this program.
00:19:43.120 That's not even close to legal.
00:19:45.460 That's not even close to constitutional.
00:19:47.620 Like you are purposely discriminating against someone because of their skin color.
00:19:52.460 That, of course, goes back to the whole anti-racist ideology that was primarily propagated by Ibram
00:19:59.680 X.
00:19:59.980 Kendi, that the only way to rectify past discrimination is current discrimination.
00:20:05.580 Of course, injustice is still injustice.
00:20:08.820 Discriminating against someone because of the color of their skin, rewarding someone simply
00:20:13.320 because they have a certain amount of melanin is called partiality.
00:20:17.720 It's evil, abhorrent to God.
00:20:19.620 The God who created justice says that you are to have no partiality in your judgments.
00:20:24.900 You don't defer to the poor or to the great.
00:20:26.980 I think we can extrapolate that to mean that we're not to defer to people because of the
00:20:31.380 color of their skin.
00:20:33.120 But of course, she said right before the last election, like you'll remember that tweet that
00:20:38.020 she put out, that video that she put out that said, you know, equality means we're given
00:20:43.280 equal opportunities, but equity means we all end up in the same place.
00:20:47.900 That's communism, girl.
00:20:49.980 That's communism.
00:20:51.540 You can't guarantee that everyone ends up in the same place without tyranny.
00:20:56.480 And by the way, we're never guaranteed to end up in the same place.
00:21:01.800 Two people from the same family don't even end up in the same place in life.
00:21:06.180 And they had all the same resources and upbringing.
00:21:08.380 We're raised in the same house and they don't even end up in the same place.
00:21:14.300 And yet we expect two people from totally two different backgrounds, two different regions,
00:21:18.800 two different classes to end up in the same place or else we live in an unfair system.
00:21:23.520 So equality of outcome is not equity.
00:21:27.800 Equity, the true meaning of equity, according to the Bible, is impartial law giving, impartial
00:21:33.600 judgments.
00:21:34.080 But just like empathy, just like compassion, love, tolerance, all of these things, the
00:21:38.940 left exploits previously good ideas and turns them into something very bad.
00:21:45.640 Launch a national health equity initiative focused on black men.
00:21:49.360 And again, like, let's just read into this.
00:21:52.240 They always use euphemisms because they can't actually say what they mean.
00:21:56.700 What leftists always mean by equity is discriminating against white people.
00:22:01.800 So that's how we can read into that.
00:22:04.740 Also, this is very important to appeal to black men, according to her, legalize marijuana
00:22:11.560 at the federal level to break down unjust legal barriers that hold black men and other
00:22:17.640 Americans back.
00:22:19.780 I just think that it's strange.
00:22:22.060 Like, is that not playing upon a trope?
00:22:24.520 Is that not playing into the stereotype that black men just want to get high on marijuana?
00:22:30.080 That this is such a big and important thing to the entire black population that she has
00:22:35.280 to make sure that you don't go to jail for using something like weed?
00:22:39.760 Like, I just think it's strange because Democrats do this a lot and Republicans actually do this
00:22:44.440 too.
00:22:44.880 And I think it's gross and it's sad.
00:22:48.080 That when Republicans and Democrats are talking about black issues, they're almost always
00:22:54.220 talking about crime and weed.
00:22:57.680 Like, I don't I mean, I know a lot of black people.
00:23:00.940 That's not their number one concern.
00:23:03.240 That's not the thing that they're worried about when it comes to this election.
00:23:07.260 I mean, they're worried about the economy.
00:23:10.000 They're worried about immigration.
00:23:11.880 They're worried about safe streets.
00:23:15.140 And yet we hear many times from both Republicans and Democrats that in order to appeal to black
00:23:20.740 voters, you have to make it easier to smoke weed and harder to go to jail.
00:23:24.220 Yikes.
00:23:26.380 I hope that this doesn't work.
00:23:28.800 I hope that Harris's plan, that her agenda here doesn't doesn't work.
00:23:34.340 So discrimination and easier to smoke and sell weed.
00:23:39.420 Come on, please see through that.
00:23:42.340 That is so it's not just shallow.
00:23:45.100 It should be insulting to your intelligence as a human being.
00:23:49.360 Okay, we got to stop.
00:23:51.540 I told you it would be quick.
00:23:52.580 I got to stop and go for the next ad.
00:23:55.140 And it's Seven Weeks Coffee.
00:23:56.380 I love partnering with Seven Weeks Coffee.
00:23:58.540 This is a pro-life coffee company.
00:24:00.680 They call themselves Seven Weeks Coffee because it's seven weeks gestation.
00:24:04.500 That baby inside the womb is the size of a coffee bean.
00:24:07.960 They believe that all babies, that all innocent human beings have a right to life.
00:24:13.120 That's why they donate 10% of every sale to pro-life organizations.
00:24:17.220 They have donated over half a million dollars to these pro-life pregnancy centers
00:24:21.660 that has translated into saving thousands of lives.
00:24:25.500 Also, their coffee is top-notch.
00:24:27.800 It's the highest quality, cleanest coffee that you can get.
00:24:30.840 It tastes really good.

00:24:47.660 Go to sevenweekscoffee.com, code Allie.
00:24:54.880 We've also got Barack Obama.
00:24:57.620 He was a part of the campaign over the past week.
00:25:02.280 And he was talking to a group of black men.
00:25:05.660 He wanted to give them some tough talk.
00:25:09.080 Obama said that they're just misogynists.
00:25:11.960 He said that you basically, you just don't like women.
00:25:16.800 Here he is.
00:25:17.840 We had not yet seen the same kinds of energy and turnout in all quarters of our neighborhoods
00:25:27.800 and communities as we saw when I was running.
00:25:30.420 So we've got Barack Obama saying that if you don't vote for Harris, you're not a man, basically.
00:25:51.800 And you don't love women.
00:25:53.500 And we had Joe Biden a few years ago say that if you don't vote for him, you ain't black.
00:26:00.340 So you're going to keep voting for these people?
00:26:03.100 Like, I always hear, even from Christians, that, yeah, sure, Republicans kind of get it right on the life stuff.
00:26:10.540 But Democrats are helping the poor.
00:26:13.020 They're helping black people.
00:26:14.840 How?
00:26:15.440 How?
00:26:16.780 How?
00:26:18.080 I mean, predominantly black communities have been voting for Democrats to lead their communities, to lead their cities for decades.
00:26:27.740 How is the problem still Republicans?
00:26:31.800 How is the problem still the system?
00:26:34.400 The people that you are putting in charge of the system clearly aren't delivering the solutions that you're looking for.
00:26:42.420 I mean, also, this is a big part of many black churches, Democrats, politicians coming in to campaign.
00:26:51.560 I mean, the stranglehold that the Democrat Party has on black Americans does seem to be loosening as the statistics show.
00:27:00.240 And I praise God for that.
00:27:01.380 I know of a lot of solid black pastors and, of course, black Christians who are ardently pro-life and who are extremely outspoken about what is good, right, and true.
00:27:16.340 But predominantly, black communities and black churches ardently support Democrats and pretty much unconditionally.
00:27:26.260 And these manipulation tactics, unfortunately, I think, can be effective, that you're not really a man, you don't really love women, you're not really black, you don't care about your community if you don't vote Democrat.
00:27:41.520 I mean, what have they done for you, really?
00:27:43.540 Like, how has that translated into actual help?
00:27:46.260 I mean, it just doesn't make sense that you're voting for the same party over and over again and are still saying the system is out, you know, is out to get certain demographics.
00:27:58.440 Okay, well, maybe we should change who is in charge of the system in your community.
00:28:05.480 Harris, in a radio interview, also said that she is open to reparations.
00:28:10.640 Charlemagne the God asked her about this.
00:28:13.480 She said, to your question about reparations, it has to be studied.
00:28:17.500 There's no question about that.
00:28:19.260 I've been very clear about that position.
00:28:21.380 She didn't give a position, which, of course, a lot of politicians do that.
00:28:25.760 And, of course, she explained that she grew up in the middle class because that's how you answer.
00:28:32.200 When someone asks you something, when Chief Related Bro is like, hey, like, how much did you spend at Trader Joe's?
00:28:41.600 And I'm like, well, I grew up in a middle class family.
00:28:44.620 And then we just stare each other at each other in silence for 10 seconds until I walk away.
00:28:49.880 And that's, I mean, that's a really good strategy.
00:28:52.560 I think that more of us should, when we don't want to answer a question, we can just start saying, I grew up in a middle class family.
00:28:59.280 Of course, reparations is a horrible idea and a stupid position.
00:29:04.900 There is no reason for the white person who lives truly in the middle class neighborhood to pay reparations to Beyonce.
00:29:14.740 Sorry.
00:29:15.620 I just don't think that's justice.
00:29:17.200 Like, I just don't think that the white family who is struggling to survive should be paying reparations to Oprah and Barack Obama.
00:29:28.780 And, by the way, we don't even know which people today are related to slaves from 200 years ago.
00:29:38.180 Is it like, what do we do with people who are half black, half white?
00:29:41.440 What do we do with the white people whose grandparents came here after slavery was abolished?
00:29:49.620 Like, who do we decide is responsible for the slavery that occurred?
00:29:55.920 Is it just people who kind of look white?
00:29:59.020 Who do we decide are the victims?
00:30:01.220 Is it just people who kind of look black?
00:30:03.600 Like, is that how we're really basing justice?
00:30:06.140 I heard, you know, LaTosha Morrison, she wrote Be the Bridge, and, you know, we talk about where I think that she is just so wrong when it comes to so-called racial reconciliation and social justice when it comes to race.
00:30:20.300 But a lot of churches, you know, they promote her books of Be the Bridge.
00:30:24.940 And I've heard her say in speeches in defense of reparations and the work that she's doing, you know, if you wrecked my car, I expect you to pay for it.
00:30:39.400 I didn't wreck your car.
00:30:41.600 None of us did.
00:30:43.080 And so none of us are responsible for paying for it.
00:30:47.460 And Kamala Harris, she knows this is a radical position.
00:30:50.300 And that's why she didn't push any farther on that.
00:30:56.420 Sagar and Jetty, he's great.
00:30:58.460 We've had him on the show before, and I always love his commentary.
00:31:01.740 It's always so interesting.
00:31:02.700 He hates weed.
00:31:04.020 And, like, we are on the same page.
00:31:05.400 He hates weed in Europe and people dressing bad, and he hates daylight savings time.
00:31:14.700 And so, and I just appreciate people who have strong opinions about things like that, and that mulch is the same way.
00:31:20.360 Some of, I'm like, why are we even talking about this?
00:31:22.460 I don't know, but I love that you're passionate about it.
00:31:24.360 But Sagar and I definitely agree on hating weed.
00:31:27.860 And he said this.
00:31:29.760 Oh, Tim Miller.
00:31:31.200 Tim Miller, the bulwark guy.
00:31:33.040 He said, because black people have been disproportionality jailed.
00:31:39.960 Womp womp.
00:31:41.460 I'm going to, I'm going to give you the BOD.
00:31:43.420 Tim Miller, have been disproportionately jailed for weed usage, while rich white kids at liberal arts schools have ripped the bong with impunity for decades.
00:31:52.860 Hope that clears it up.
00:31:56.280 These people are so smug.
00:31:57.960 Sagar said, only weed logic can, can lead you to this.
00:32:04.100 Because of injustice in the past, we must legalize poison and let the same people we imprisoned sell it to children and other addicts.
00:32:12.820 So true.
00:32:13.880 Like, even if something is true, even if that is true, the picture that Tim Miller painted, even if that is real, that doesn't support legalizing and making more accessible.
00:32:28.280 Something like marijuana that can cause psychosis and schizophrenia that can hamper brain development when minors use it.
00:32:38.240 There's nothing positive about marijuana.
00:32:40.480 It should continue to be illegal and to be as difficult to get as possible.
00:32:44.840 Well, Kamala Harris, she continues to be completely radical and she wants you to forget about that.
00:32:49.560 But we're not going to let you forget about that.
00:32:51.560 So let me get into that in a second.
00:32:53.420 Let me pause and tell you about our third sponsor.
00:32:55.380 It's Jay's Medical.
00:32:56.740 Well, Hurricane Milton made landfall last week near Siesta Key, Florida, as a Category 3 storm.
00:33:02.100 At least 16 people died.
00:33:03.680 So tragic.
00:33:05.240 Two million people were without power in Florida as of this weekend.
00:33:08.980 It's following on the heels of the tragic loss of life with Hurricane Helene.
00:33:12.940 But it just reminds us that we really need to be prepared for these events.
00:33:16.520 Whether you live in a place where there are tornadoes or floods or earthquakes, all kinds of these calamities could happen.
00:33:24.560 And just depending on where you live or blizzards or heat waves, you just want to be prepared.
00:33:29.500 There could always be a reason why you can't get the medication that you need.
00:33:32.740 You don't want to be in a position where you need antibiotics and cannot get them because antibiotics can save lives.
00:33:39.380 That's why you need a Jay's case.
00:33:40.920 They'll give you an emergency stash of antibiotics that you can take when you need them.
00:33:47.400 And you can also get the Jay's Daily, which is a year-long supply of the prescriptions that you and your family rely on.
00:33:54.720 Go to jays.com slash Allie for a discount.
00:33:58.300 That's jays.com slash Allie.
00:34:01.440 Okay, we're going to quickly go through this one because I want to get to this more cultural, less political story.
00:34:12.160 But gosh, there's so much happening in electoral politics.
00:34:15.560 And I just so badly want to make sure that all of you who can vote, vote.
00:34:21.760 And that you know what is at stake and you know actually who is on the ballot.
00:34:25.640 So this was reported on October 15th, so just yesterday, by Washington Free Beacon.
00:34:32.200 I saw a tweet by Charlie Kirk going around that Kamala Harris, that she supports the sex change of incarcerated men.
00:34:46.100 And actually, this has manifested itself in real policy in the state of California and has resulted in men going in female prisons and assaulting them.
00:35:00.600 So I want to play you this clip of Kamala Harris saying this herself so you know it's not an exaggeration.
00:35:07.300 And then I'm going to tell you a little story about how this policy has actually affected people.
00:35:13.860 Here's thought three.
00:35:14.520 When I was Attorney General, I learned that the California Department of Corrections, which was a client of mine, that they were standing in the way of surgery.
00:35:26.060 For prisoners.
00:35:27.140 For prisoners.
00:35:27.960 And there was a specific case.
00:35:29.820 And when I learned about the case, I worked behind the scenes to not only make sure that that transgender woman got the services she was deserving.
00:35:38.260 So it wasn't only about that case.
00:35:40.760 I made sure that they changed the policy in the state of California so that every transgender inmate in the prison system would have access to the medical care that they desired and need.
00:35:54.440 Okay, so you heard it.
00:35:57.020 She is the one in the state of California who championed sex change, quote unquote, it's not possible to change your sex, gender reassignment, quote unquote, surgeries for men.
00:36:07.480 And then for them to be transferred to female prisons.
00:36:10.180 Now, we know from talking to many of these journalists that we've had on the show that women have been impregnated.
00:36:17.980 Women have been raped by these men who say they just want top surgery, say they don't want bottom surgery, say they don't want any procedure at all.
00:36:27.600 They just want to be able to grow their hair out and say that they're a woman.
00:36:30.260 Well, gender ideology says that you are who you say you are, that biology is really arbitrary, has no authority whatsoever.
00:36:38.560 So if a man, a rapist, a pedophile, a murderer decides that he is a woman because women's prisons are obviously safer, they're in some cases a little cushier, a little nicer, he can do that.
00:36:54.740 And he is transferred into a woman's prison.
00:36:57.220 Now, Kamala Harris says that she is representing women, that she is the party of women, that she is the party of freedom.
00:37:06.560 Now, remember what the Democrats mean when they say they're the party of freedom.
00:37:11.300 What did they mean when they say freedom?
00:37:13.500 Sexual immorality and abortion.
00:37:16.420 And gender confusion, gender deception falls under that sexual immorality umbrella.
00:37:21.280 So there was a real person named John Jacobson who decided after he went to prison for murder that he would become a woman.
00:37:30.540 And because of Kamala Harris's policies, he got to go into the women's prison.
00:37:34.820 In 2004, John Jacobson lured Thomas and Jackie Hawks onto their boat off the California coast, tied them to the vessel's anchor.
00:37:42.800 This is very disturbing, okay, threw them overboard before grabbing a beer from the fridge and starting to fish.
00:37:52.220 Jacobson told ABC News that he murdered the married couple to obtain money for a sex change surgery.
00:37:59.800 So he drowned this couple by tying them to an anchor.
00:38:03.080 He was convicted of murdering the couple along with the previous murder.
00:38:08.260 He now sits on death row.
00:38:10.440 Last year, Jacobson's dreams of becoming a woman finally came true when California taxpayers footed the bill for his gender transition surgery.
00:38:19.460 A move made possible thanks to policies and precedents set during Kamala Harris's time as the state's attorney general.
00:38:28.600 Jacobson said,
00:38:29.640 I did receive gender-affirming surgery and breast augmentation on April 5th, 2023.
00:38:37.780 Jacobson also told the Free Beacon that he expects to transfer to a female prison fairly quickly.
00:38:45.160 In his 2009 interview with ABC, Jacobson was clear that he is still attracted to females.
00:38:51.420 I'm not attracted to guys, he said, but I wanted the surgery.
00:38:55.180 And I knew 100% I wanted the surgery, but I only like females.
00:39:01.600 The state's treatment of so-called transgender inmates changed radically during Kamala Harris's time in office.
00:39:11.140 Now, I will say that I am a bit giddy that this person has been castrated.
00:39:18.580 Like, I think that that's a fair punishment.
00:39:21.140 I'm glad that he has been castrated.
00:39:23.540 I think he should be castrated and stay in the male prison, though.
00:39:29.020 And I think that he should get the death penalty.
00:39:31.520 Of course, because this is premeditated murder.
00:39:35.160 And that is justice for murder.
00:39:38.820 God says that in Genesis 9-6.
00:39:42.520 That if you shed innocent blood, then your blood will be shed.
00:39:46.900 He demands that for justice.
00:39:49.860 And some people say, oh, the death penalty, it's so mean.
00:39:52.660 It's so wrong.
00:39:53.580 I think the Catholic Church is actually against the death penalty.
00:39:56.820 They didn't used to be against the death penalty.
00:39:59.560 But predominantly, they are now.
00:40:03.220 Okay, we're not nicer than God.
00:40:05.800 And God, before the creation of Israel, before the creation of civilization,
00:40:10.920 said that the death penalty is the just punishment for murder.
00:40:14.740 And so, far from getting sex change surgeries,
00:40:19.580 I think this guy should have been executed a long time ago.
00:40:24.220 Swift execution of execution for murderers,
00:40:28.860 when it has been proven beyond a shadow of a doubt
00:40:32.160 that this person has murdered, that is justice.
00:40:35.620 That is justice.
00:40:36.300 And it also mitigates evil.
00:40:39.760 And that is what the state is supposed to do,
00:40:41.840 to use the sword against evildoers and to reward those who do good.
00:40:48.200 But Kamala Harris is the anti-justice candidate.
00:40:52.460 She does the opposite of what the government instituted by God is supposed to do.
00:40:58.040 She rewards those who do evil, like this person,
00:41:03.100 and she punishes those who do good, like David Daleiden, like the pregnancy sinners.
00:41:11.340 Investigated David Daleiden for his pro-life reporting,
00:41:14.560 he's still dealing with that, forced pregnancy sinners to advertise for abortion.
00:41:19.220 The Supreme Court overturned that fact act, thankfully.
00:41:22.960 But that's who Kamala Harris is.
00:41:24.660 She rewards those who do evil.
00:41:27.260 She punishes those who do good.
00:41:30.420 And we actually still see this today in the Harris-Biden administration.
00:41:34.840 There is a woman named Bevelin B.D. Williams,
00:41:38.400 and she has just been sentenced to three and a half years in federal prison.
00:41:42.860 She is a mom of a toddler.
00:41:44.140 She is a pro-life protester, a pro-life activist.
00:41:48.540 And she was arrested and charged for unlawful assembly, okay?
00:41:53.760 Not violence, unlawful assembly in the state of New York,
00:41:58.760 because she was peacefully protesting outside of a Planned Parenthood.
00:42:04.740 And you might think, well, this is unconstitutional.
00:42:06.680 Our right to assembly, our right to protest is protected by the Constitution.
00:42:10.200 Look, the Constitution is a piece of paper until someone is willing to defend it,
00:42:14.660 until someone is willing to enforce it.
00:42:16.660 Right now, the powers that be, the DOJ,
00:42:18.840 don't give a flying rip about the Constitution.
00:42:23.780 She, of course, is not the first pro-lifer to be jailed by the Biden administration.
00:42:29.460 Joan Bell, 74 years old,
00:42:32.140 imprisoned by the Harris-Biden administration.
00:42:36.540 We've got Herb Garrity, who was on our show,
00:42:41.240 a pro-lifer who protested.
00:42:43.900 And I think about Herb's words all the time.
00:42:48.720 That nothing that someone who is imprisoned endures compares to the pain
00:42:56.360 that babies endure in an abortion.
00:42:59.840 And these are the pro-lifers who have been imprisoned by the FACE Act,
00:43:05.400 through the FACE Act, by the Harris-Biden administration.
00:43:07.800 She does not care one bit about your constitutional rights.
00:43:12.880 She rewards evil, and she punishes good.
00:43:19.260 It is your responsibility, Christian, to vote against that.
00:43:23.420 It is your duty, Christian, to vote against that.
00:43:26.840 Are you going to vote for the guy that would probably pardon Joan Bell?
00:43:30.360 That, I can almost guarantee you, will pardon Joan Bell and Bevelyn Beattie?
00:43:34.700 Or are you going to vote for the person
00:43:37.940 who is going to throw more pro-lifers in jail?
00:43:43.360 Which one?
00:43:44.560 Or are you just not going to vote?
00:43:46.520 Are you going to sit out?
00:43:48.080 Because, well, neither of them are perfect.
00:43:51.520 Can I read you something?
00:43:53.440 Let me read you what one of my pro-life friends posted
00:43:58.160 on her Instagram.
00:44:01.320 And she's not someone, she's certainly not MAGA.
00:44:03.680 She is conservative, but she's probably moderate
00:44:06.920 on some things.
00:44:09.340 And her name is Christina Bennett.
00:44:11.920 She works with Live Action.
00:44:13.520 She is so passionate for the unborn
00:44:16.180 and has done so much work.
00:44:18.020 But she and I probably don't agree
00:44:19.440 on every policy outside of abortion.
00:44:22.480 But we totally agree on the evil of abortion,
00:44:26.300 the dignity of the unborn.
00:44:27.800 Her mother chose life.
00:44:29.460 She was almost aborted,
00:44:30.660 and she's just used her passion to save so many.
00:44:33.860 And she's friends with Bevelyn.
00:44:35.760 And here's what she wrote when Bevelyn said,
00:44:40.000 yeah, I'm going to jail.
00:44:41.200 Bevelyn is going to prison today, by the way.
00:44:44.480 Here's what Christina wrote on Instagram.
00:44:47.320 She posted a video very upset.
00:44:49.660 She said,
00:44:49.960 I'm just brokenhearted to hear
00:44:51.280 Bevelyn Beattie-Williams is going to jail tomorrow
00:44:53.620 for her pro-life activism.
00:44:55.400 At the end of her Facebook post,
00:44:56.680 she said,
00:44:57.380 please don't forget to vote
00:44:58.940 and do all you can to elect leaders
00:45:01.300 who stand for justice.
00:45:03.740 Christina said,
00:45:04.480 guys, I've been on the fence
00:45:05.920 because I'm so brokenhearted
00:45:07.540 over compromise
00:45:09.080 regarding abortion with the Republican Party.
00:45:12.120 I wanted to do a write-in.
00:45:13.760 Last week,
00:45:15.340 a friend who was also facing prison
00:45:17.620 for her activism
00:45:18.700 asked me to vote for Trump regardless.
00:45:22.320 I made a covenant before God
00:45:23.940 I wouldn't vote for someone
00:45:25.240 who was not pro-life,
00:45:26.560 so I wanted to do a write-in.
00:45:29.000 But my friend facing prison asked me,
00:45:31.740 believing he could possibly pardon her.
00:45:34.320 Now today,
00:45:35.860 Beve is asking
00:45:36.860 before she goes to prison tomorrow,
00:45:39.320 so I will vote for her
00:45:40.840 and for the possibility
00:45:42.700 that they could be pardoned.
00:45:44.720 People can think what they may
00:45:46.380 and I don't care.
00:45:48.460 Never did I imagine
00:45:49.560 I'd see a beautiful young Black mother
00:45:51.900 going to jail
00:45:53.240 for trying to save babies.
00:45:57.300 Vote for Joan Bell.
00:45:59.660 Vote for Bevelyn.
00:46:02.640 Vote for true justice.
00:46:05.800 If you don't like Trump,
00:46:07.640 at the very least,
00:46:08.840 vote against the woman
00:46:11.180 who is putting pro-lifers in jail
00:46:14.080 and who is funded
00:46:15.120 by those killing the babies.
00:46:18.700 All right.
00:46:19.580 Got one more topic for today.
00:46:21.580 Let me tell you about our next sponsor.
00:46:24.360 It is Birch Gold.
00:46:26.720 There's a lot at stake
00:46:27.700 in this upcoming election.
00:46:29.100 Regardless of who is sitting
00:46:30.200 in the White House,
00:46:31.240 the fuse on the economy
00:46:32.300 has already been lit.
00:46:33.880 Even four years
00:46:34.740 of a conservative presidency
00:46:35.940 will not be enough
00:46:37.020 to turn the tide
00:46:37.740 on our $35 trillion
00:46:38.960 national debt.
00:46:40.480 If the left wins,
00:46:41.460 it's like throwing gas
00:46:42.680 on a dumpster fire.
00:46:44.560 You don't have a lot of control
00:46:45.780 over the election's outcome
00:46:47.180 aside from your own vote,
00:46:48.700 but you can protect your savings.
00:46:51.100 Birch Gold will help you
00:46:52.180 convert an IRA or 401k
00:46:54.300 into an IRA in physical gold,
00:46:56.540 tax-free and penalty-free,
00:46:58.020 and it doesn't cost you
00:46:59.160 a penny out of pocket.
00:47:01.080 Text the word ALLY

00:47:07.880 Text ALLY
00:47:08.540 to the number 989898 today.
00:47:15.160 Okay, speaking of Kamala Harris,
00:47:20.240 we are going to talk about,
00:47:22.220 we're talking about witches, okay?
00:47:25.500 Because I got this,
00:47:27.260 I got this text
00:47:29.300 from my brother the other day,
00:47:31.680 and it was the magazine rack
00:47:34.540 at a grocery store
00:47:35.520 in the checkout aisle,
00:47:37.240 and it was a magazine
00:47:39.600 that said witches,
00:47:42.140 and on the front
00:47:42.800 was a woman
00:47:44.260 clearly engaging
00:47:46.260 in some kind of satanic ritual,
00:47:49.880 and on the side it said,
00:47:51.560 discover their secretive
00:47:53.000 and mysterious practices,
00:47:54.740 ancient traditions,
00:47:56.900 persecution,
00:47:57.780 and the Salem witch trials,
00:47:59.960 modern witchcraft
00:48:01.020 and spell work.
00:48:01.800 So this is clearly
00:48:02.700 a glorification
00:48:04.440 of witchcraft,
00:48:05.740 and this is actually
00:48:06.660 a trend
00:48:07.240 that we've been seeing
00:48:08.160 for the past few years.
00:48:09.940 I did an episode
00:48:11.200 maybe in 2020
00:48:13.200 called
00:48:14.440 The Rise of the Millennial Witches
00:48:16.540 because there is a big trend
00:48:18.340 on witch talk
00:48:19.700 for young women
00:48:20.860 who don't necessarily
00:48:21.920 look demonic.
00:48:23.060 They just look like
00:48:23.640 your normal suburban mom
00:48:25.100 casting spells,
00:48:26.700 burning sage,
00:48:28.580 using their crystals,
00:48:30.380 and you know,
00:48:30.820 witchcraft doesn't necessarily
00:48:32.080 always look like
00:48:33.180 a Ouija board
00:48:33.960 or like dyeing your hair black
00:48:36.240 and casting spells.
00:48:37.920 Today it looks more
00:48:39.020 like manifesting.
00:48:40.660 Today it looks more
00:48:42.320 like transcendental meditation,
00:48:44.540 or it looks a lot more
00:48:46.460 new age,
00:48:47.460 and we've had conversations
00:48:48.820 with former witches,
00:48:50.160 we've had conversations
00:48:51.060 with former psychics,
00:48:52.460 with former new age people
00:48:53.820 who have engaged
00:48:55.060 in this kind of thing,
00:48:56.360 and it starts
00:48:57.200 typically through
00:48:58.840 reading a Cosmo article
00:49:00.340 about your sign,
00:49:02.020 getting into astrology,
00:49:05.140 thinking about
00:49:06.880 who your real
00:49:08.700 spiritual goddess self is,
00:49:10.880 all of these things
00:49:11.780 that are propagated a lot
00:49:13.400 in the self-help,
00:49:15.140 self-empowerment world,
00:49:16.940 even in some of
00:49:17.780 the Christian worlds.
00:49:19.200 This idea that,
00:49:20.160 of course,
00:49:20.400 we talk about so much
00:49:21.540 in my first book,
00:49:22.500 You're Not Enough,
00:49:23.780 that there's this
00:49:24.620 inner goddess on the inside.
00:49:26.140 She just needs to be released.
00:49:28.400 And basically,
00:49:28.920 if you say the right things,
00:49:30.800 if you imagine
00:49:31.940 the future that you want,
00:49:34.080 and you throw off
00:49:34.920 all of the toxic people
00:49:36.440 and expectations
00:49:37.240 and standards
00:49:38.300 and societal norms,
00:49:40.440 then she'll be released,
00:49:41.960 and she'll finally
00:49:43.140 get everything she wants.
00:49:45.580 It goes all the way
00:49:46.340 back to the garden.
00:49:47.460 I mean,
00:49:47.760 Eve was tempted
00:49:48.520 with wanting to be like God.
00:49:51.140 This is the root
00:49:52.480 of witchcraft today.
00:49:55.120 I saw this tweet
00:49:56.380 from someone named
00:49:58.200 Allie on Axe,
00:49:59.800 and she said,
00:50:00.260 I don't understand
00:50:00.840 why so many women
00:50:01.920 pretend they're witches now.
00:50:03.840 Is it an aesthetic?
00:50:05.040 Harry Potter cringe?
00:50:06.160 Gone too far?
00:50:06.980 Actual witchcraft?
00:50:08.680 And then she,
00:50:09.820 you know,
00:50:10.380 posts this picture
00:50:11.380 of someone
00:50:11.940 who is like
00:50:12.680 dressed as a witch.
00:50:15.520 Very disturbing.
00:50:17.300 But the truth is,
00:50:18.280 this is a trend.
00:50:19.200 And this was reported
00:50:20.580 by British Vogue,
00:50:22.320 The Vogue Guide
00:50:23.160 to Being a Modern Witch.
00:50:25.760 They say,
00:50:26.440 from nostalgic witch shows
00:50:27.820 like the 1996 sitcom
00:50:29.560 Sabrina the Teenage Witch
00:50:30.940 to newer Netflix releases,
00:50:35.940 witch stereotypes
00:50:36.700 are reemerging in popularity,
00:50:38.420 but with a different look
00:50:39.340 thanks to Gen Z.
00:50:40.800 Gen Z's embrace
00:50:41.820 of New Age spiritualism
00:50:43.080 has driven the rise
00:50:44.000 of witchcore
00:50:44.960 and whimsigoth aesthetics.
00:50:47.460 Like,
00:50:47.600 can we not?
00:50:48.220 We need,
00:50:48.760 I think we need
00:50:49.520 another famine.
00:50:51.220 Like,
00:50:51.620 we have way too much time
00:50:53.360 on our hands.
00:50:55.340 Which merge romantic,
00:50:57.140 mystical vibes
00:50:58.040 with grungy,
00:50:59.680 gothic undertones.
00:51:01.240 The witchcore aesthetic
00:51:02.220 is influenced
00:51:03.040 by ancient rituals
00:51:04.320 and practices.
00:51:05.280 So,
00:51:05.820 here,
00:51:06.220 it's not just
00:51:07.540 about following
00:51:08.560 a trend that you saw
00:51:09.580 and you think is cute.
00:51:10.880 They're saying
00:51:11.500 it is influenced
00:51:12.420 by ancient rituals
00:51:13.480 and practices
00:51:14.200 from potion making
00:51:15.360 and herbalism
00:51:16.180 to tarot card reading,
00:51:17.920 sage burning,
00:51:18.540 and crystal healing.
00:51:19.400 It's a blend
00:51:19.800 of vintage lace dresses
00:51:21.080 with oversized button downs
00:51:22.980 and corsets thrown on
00:51:24.600 for good measure.
00:51:25.640 You could literally
00:51:26.600 find all of this
00:51:27.420 it made well.
00:51:28.660 All reminiscent
00:51:29.660 of nature's
00:51:30.300 very own color palette.
00:51:31.640 Think dark,
00:51:32.580 earthy tones
00:51:33.340 that wouldn't look
00:51:34.340 out of place
00:51:34.920 at an autumnal
00:51:36.140 festival.
00:51:37.840 The terms
00:51:38.280 witch or witchy
00:51:39.120 cover a broad
00:51:39.900 spectrum of things.
00:51:41.100 It might mean
00:51:41.520 someone who practices
00:51:42.340 witchcraft
00:51:42.980 or it might refer
00:51:44.200 to more of
00:51:45.000 an Instagrammable
00:51:46.080 aesthetic choice
00:51:47.180 more than anything else.
00:51:49.120 According to Vogue,
00:51:50.780 today,
00:51:51.420 witchery is about
00:51:52.180 normalizing a woman's
00:51:53.440 darker side,
00:51:54.680 reconnecting
00:51:55.440 with ancient practices
00:51:56.520 and sacred care,
00:51:58.020 rejecting modern
00:51:59.140 idealizations
00:52:00.220 of women
00:52:01.200 as angels.
00:52:02.880 Long gone
00:52:03.420 are the antiquated
00:52:04.260 stereotypes of witches
00:52:05.340 practicing black magic
00:52:06.760 or white magic.
00:52:08.020 Modern witches
00:52:08.600 can be
00:52:09.320 whatever
00:52:10.180 they choose.
00:52:12.160 And so we've got
00:52:12.860 some pictures
00:52:13.500 of witchcore,
00:52:15.600 which this is
00:52:16.160 what Satan does.
00:52:17.060 He always distorts
00:52:18.140 like the beauty
00:52:18.980 of creation.
00:52:20.220 So sun,
00:52:21.420 moon,
00:52:22.020 stars,
00:52:23.160 flowers,
00:52:24.040 even sage,
00:52:25.040 crystals,
00:52:25.340 all these things
00:52:26.180 were created
00:52:26.860 by God
00:52:27.600 but are being
00:52:28.960 manipulated
00:52:29.560 into something
00:52:30.520 that is evil,
00:52:31.880 which is of course
00:52:32.680 being the God of self.
00:52:34.380 I saw this tweet.
00:52:35.680 One of the draws
00:52:36.940 of witchcraft
00:52:38.000 is that it has
00:52:38.800 an aesthetic
00:52:39.380 women find appealing.
00:52:40.800 Dried flowers,
00:52:41.780 candles,
00:52:42.300 pretty little herbs
00:52:43.160 and bottles.
00:52:45.280 Bland modern churches
00:52:46.420 rid of visual elements
00:52:47.580 will simply not be able
00:52:48.760 to compete with this.
00:52:50.080 Oh my gosh,
00:52:50.540 that's so dumb.
00:52:52.760 Okay,
00:52:53.240 apparently
00:52:53.860 this is Taylor Swift
00:52:55.520 in witchcore.
00:52:57.600 And this is
00:52:58.580 in January
00:52:59.500 of this year.
00:53:00.720 This is what
00:53:01.360 witchcore
00:53:02.220 looks like.
00:53:03.460 We've got a full screen
00:53:04.560 of that.
00:53:06.560 So apparently
00:53:07.680 this is witchcore.
00:53:08.940 And Taylor Swift
00:53:09.460 said in December
00:53:10.660 of 2020,
00:53:11.800 witches be like,
00:53:13.020 sometimes I just
00:53:13.880 want to listen
00:53:14.380 to music
00:53:14.800 while pining away,
00:53:15.940 sulking,
00:53:16.440 staring out a window.
00:53:17.400 It's me.
00:53:17.980 I'm witches.
00:53:18.840 Never fear.
00:53:19.780 The Willow Lonely
00:53:20.800 Witch Remix
00:53:21.780 is here.
00:53:22.980 Whatever that means.
00:53:23.900 And you know,
00:53:24.180 a lot of people
00:53:24.820 said that in her
00:53:25.700 heiress tour,
00:53:26.600 there was a ton
00:53:27.600 of witchcore.
00:53:29.340 And that's true.
00:53:30.040 There was.
00:53:30.620 Like even if you
00:53:31.320 don't think that
00:53:32.080 there was like
00:53:32.560 a spiritual aspect
00:53:33.660 to her talking
00:53:35.040 about spells
00:53:36.320 and all of that,
00:53:37.680 she definitely
00:53:38.360 had a witch aesthetic.
00:53:39.760 She definitely
00:53:40.180 dressed up like a witch
00:53:41.500 and she played upon
00:53:43.040 a lot of those
00:53:43.880 dark themes.
00:53:44.920 Even some of the
00:53:45.620 things she talks
00:53:46.260 about,
00:53:46.500 like a twin flame,
00:53:47.900 that's a very
00:53:48.720 new age,
00:53:50.120 I would even say
00:53:51.440 like a witchy
00:53:53.360 kind of term.
00:53:54.340 It's a supernatural
00:53:55.820 idea that basically
00:53:58.180 we are our own
00:53:59.700 gods or we are
00:54:00.920 either informed
00:54:03.260 by or moved
00:54:04.360 by the universe.
00:54:05.580 There are things
00:54:06.160 we do to be
00:54:07.680 in sync with
00:54:08.360 the universe,
00:54:09.000 to be out of
00:54:09.740 sync with the
00:54:10.600 universe.
00:54:11.780 It's just plain
00:54:13.020 old paganism.
00:54:14.040 And we've got
00:54:14.620 this like picture
00:54:15.940 of their,
00:54:17.140 of the Taylor
00:54:17.980 Swift concert.
00:54:19.820 No, we've got a
00:54:20.500 video of the
00:54:21.240 Taylor Swift concert
00:54:22.000 where look,
00:54:22.620 they're in this
00:54:23.380 like witch circle.
00:54:25.020 Here's salt one.
00:54:33.260 Okay, very disturbing.
00:54:53.000 They're basically
00:54:53.540 bowing down to
00:54:54.580 her and look,
00:54:57.160 I like Taylor Swift
00:54:58.300 songs.
00:54:59.160 I, I get it,
00:55:00.480 but this is so
00:55:01.700 like that is
00:55:02.860 clearly demonic.
00:55:04.240 I'm not saying
00:55:04.760 she's the only
00:55:05.440 artist that's
00:55:06.160 demonic,
00:55:06.500 but she does
00:55:07.280 have a particular
00:55:08.000 hold on a lot
00:55:09.480 of Christian
00:55:10.000 women who tend
00:55:10.940 to think that
00:55:11.500 she's more
00:55:12.140 innocent than
00:55:12.960 sexy red.
00:55:13.880 And I'm just
00:55:14.700 not sure that's
00:55:15.620 true.
00:55:16.320 I'm just not
00:55:17.080 sure that's
00:55:17.440 true.
00:55:17.740 There's actually
00:55:18.220 maybe even more
00:55:19.160 of a threat to
00:55:19.700 her because she
00:55:20.440 has this very
00:55:21.240 like appealing
00:55:22.860 normal girl
00:55:24.240 aesthetic.
00:55:25.200 And yet she
00:55:25.720 plays upon these
00:55:26.580 themes that are,
00:55:27.420 that are really
00:55:28.680 dark.
00:55:29.060 And I hadn't
00:55:29.540 actually seen
00:55:30.220 this before.
00:55:30.760 So I'm kind
00:55:32.260 of disturbed
00:55:32.780 by that because
00:55:33.820 I mean,
00:55:34.560 Satan disguises
00:55:35.580 himself as an
00:55:36.520 angel of light.
00:55:37.360 And I think the
00:55:38.180 more mainstream
00:55:38.960 these things
00:55:39.740 become,
00:55:40.320 the less we
00:55:42.500 stigmatize them
00:55:43.540 and the less we
00:55:44.660 see what a
00:55:45.500 threat they are.
00:55:47.140 So I want to
00:55:47.820 talk about why
00:55:48.480 I think this is
00:55:49.300 important just to
00:55:50.040 close out the
00:55:50.540 episode in just a
00:55:51.440 second.
00:55:51.960 Let me tell you
00:55:52.420 about our last
00:55:52.900 sponsor.
00:55:53.380 It's Patriot
00:55:54.000 Mobile.
00:55:54.500 Americans are
00:55:55.020 tired and frustrated
00:55:55.720 by a stalling
00:55:56.800 economy,
00:55:57.400 inflation,
00:55:57.920 endless wars.
00:55:58.700 You want to be
00:55:59.480 able to partner
00:56:00.000 with people that
00:56:00.780 align with what
00:56:01.860 you believe in.
00:56:02.840 Patriot Mobile is
00:56:04.040 America's Christian
00:56:04.920 conservative wireless
00:56:05.980 provider.
00:56:06.920 They are fighting for
00:56:07.660 the First and Second
00:56:08.260 Amendments,
00:56:08.880 the Sanctity of Life,
00:56:09.900 our military first
00:56:10.740 responder heroes.
00:56:12.360 They have the same

00:56:18.080 to have access to
00:56:19.160 that without funding
00:56:19.960 the left.

00:56:21.780 U.S.-based customer
00:56:22.920 service team.

00:56:29.320 That's
00:56:29.620 PatriotMobile.com
00:56:30.960 Now, really, I
00:56:37.260 mean, this goes
00:56:37.880 hand-in-hand with
00:56:38.820 feminism.
00:56:39.700 It is self-empowerment.
00:56:41.380 It is wanting to
00:56:42.180 take matters into
00:56:42.980 your own hands,
00:56:43.760 your relationships
00:56:44.440 into your own
00:56:45.540 hands, your success
00:56:46.440 into your own
00:56:47.240 hands.
00:56:47.800 And so even if
00:56:48.760 someone is not
00:56:49.460 wearing a pointy
00:56:50.500 hat and walking
00:56:51.360 around with their
00:56:52.820 black cat, they
00:56:54.560 might be imbibing
00:56:56.380 and emulating
00:56:57.140 these, exhibiting
00:56:58.380 these aspects
00:57:00.280 of witchcraft.
00:57:01.680 That's all
00:57:02.160 self-empowerment
00:57:03.180 is.
00:57:03.660 These incantations
00:57:05.160 and meditations
00:57:06.040 and even
00:57:09.040 meditative prayers
00:57:10.420 that you're saying
00:57:10.980 over and over
00:57:11.720 again in the
00:57:12.280 hopes that some
00:57:13.520 outcome would
00:57:14.700 manifest itself
00:57:16.300 one day, that
00:57:16.980 is all part of
00:57:18.160 witchcraft.
00:57:19.060 The truth is
00:57:20.000 is that if we
00:57:21.680 find all of
00:57:22.520 these problems
00:57:23.320 in our lives
00:57:24.700 inside of
00:57:25.740 ourselves, if
00:57:26.400 we're depressed,
00:57:26.920 if we're anxious,
00:57:27.760 if we feel like
00:57:28.980 we're lacking
00:57:29.380 insufficient, we
00:57:30.180 won't find the
00:57:31.200 solution for those
00:57:32.700 things also inside
00:57:34.120 of ourselves.
00:57:34.800 And people love
00:57:36.040 the supernatural.
00:57:37.140 They love to
00:57:38.000 feel like they
00:57:38.960 can tap into
00:57:39.820 divine help.
00:57:41.360 They love to
00:57:42.320 know that there's
00:57:42.940 something bigger
00:57:43.500 than them, but
00:57:44.400 they don't want
00:57:45.240 the self-denial
00:57:46.160 and the self-sacrifice
00:57:47.460 that comes with
00:57:48.280 Christianity.
00:57:49.640 But this is
00:57:50.360 darkness.
00:57:51.040 I've had people
00:57:51.640 say that, you
00:57:52.540 know, I think I
00:57:53.100 can combine the
00:57:54.180 sage-burning, this
00:57:55.180 crystal healing and
00:57:57.480 all of this stuff
00:57:58.140 with Christianity.
00:57:59.220 There's some
00:57:59.720 parts of, you
00:58:00.880 know, channeling a
00:58:02.940 medium or going to
00:58:04.120 a psychic that are
00:58:05.060 fine.
00:58:05.640 You could definitely
00:58:06.280 combine that with
00:58:07.200 Christianity.
00:58:08.180 Look, that's
00:58:08.700 called syncretism.
00:58:10.180 That is strictly
00:58:11.960 forbidden in
00:58:13.680 Christianity.
00:58:14.180 You can actually
00:58:15.240 see when Jesus is
00:58:16.300 talking to the
00:58:17.120 churches in the
00:58:18.360 book of Revelation,
00:58:19.200 one of the things
00:58:20.060 that he condemns
00:58:21.260 is that syncretism,
00:58:23.140 trying to wed
00:58:24.320 light and
00:58:25.320 darkness.
00:58:26.520 And we can read
00:58:27.240 all the way in
00:58:29.100 Deuteronomy that
00:58:30.080 God hates
00:58:30.600 witchcraft.
00:58:31.280 And this is a
00:58:31.800 principle that
00:58:32.360 still stands
00:58:32.940 today.
00:58:33.380 This is not
00:58:33.760 exclusive to
00:58:34.660 ancient Israel.
00:58:36.420 Deuteronomy 18.10,
00:58:38.540 there shall not be
00:58:39.320 found among you
00:58:40.140 anyone who burns
00:58:41.320 his son or daughter
00:58:42.020 as an offering,
00:58:42.860 anyone who
00:58:43.320 practices divination
00:58:44.620 or tells fortunes
00:58:46.580 or interprets
00:58:48.860 omens or a
00:58:49.860 sorcerer or a
00:58:50.740 charmer or a
00:58:51.560 medium or a
00:58:52.340 necromancer or one
00:58:53.860 who inquires of the
00:58:54.900 dead.
00:58:55.220 For whoever does
00:58:57.020 these things is an
00:58:57.880 abomination to the
00:58:58.820 Lord.
00:58:59.360 I saw this really
00:59:00.380 huge fitness
00:59:01.660 influencer, Kate
00:59:02.720 Itzinas, I think
00:59:04.300 that, or Kayla
00:59:05.400 Itzinas, I've
00:59:06.280 followed her for a
00:59:06.840 long time actually,
00:59:07.620 but she posted the
00:59:09.160 other day how she
00:59:10.080 had this amazing
00:59:10.880 experience with the
00:59:11.840 medium.
00:59:13.220 I'm pretty sure the
00:59:13.960 Kardashians have
00:59:15.760 done this kind of
00:59:16.740 thing.
00:59:17.780 There's a new
00:59:18.520 Netflix show in
00:59:20.440 which a medium was
00:59:21.500 glorified, and
00:59:23.260 people think that
00:59:24.180 they're really
00:59:25.040 talking to their
00:59:26.340 loved ones.
00:59:27.060 No, you're talking
00:59:27.740 to a demon, and
00:59:29.380 that's not something
00:59:30.280 you should mess
00:59:31.220 with.
00:59:32.020 God takes
00:59:32.460 witchcraft very
00:59:33.360 seriously, Exodus
00:59:34.520 22.18, you
00:59:36.360 shall not permit a
00:59:38.160 sorceress to live.
00:59:39.980 Yikes!
00:59:41.200 Leviticus 20.27, a
00:59:42.700 man or a woman who
00:59:43.480 is a medium or a
00:59:44.380 necromancer shall
00:59:45.120 be put to death.
00:59:47.020 They shall be
00:59:47.460 stoned with stones,
00:59:48.360 their blood shall
00:59:48.980 be upon them.
00:59:50.100 1 Samuel 15.23, for
00:59:51.720 rebellion is as the
00:59:53.340 sin of divination, and
00:59:54.640 presumption is as
00:59:55.980 iniquity and
00:59:56.640 idolatry.
00:59:57.600 Because you have
00:59:58.160 rejected the word of
00:59:59.160 the Lord, he has
00:59:59.900 also rejected you
01:00:01.120 from being king.
01:00:03.500 Galatians 5.19-21,
01:00:05.820 now the work, this
01:00:06.700 is the New Testament,
01:00:07.740 some people think we
01:00:08.520 just disregard the
01:00:09.460 Old Testament, that
01:00:10.200 is not a rightful
01:00:10.960 handling of
01:00:12.060 scripture.
01:00:13.620 Galatians 5.19-21,
01:00:15.500 now the works of the
01:00:16.600 flesh are evident,
01:00:17.460 sexual immorality,
01:00:18.660 impurity, sensuality,
01:00:20.180 idolatry, sorcery,
01:00:21.860 enmity, strife,
01:00:23.200 jealousy, fits of
01:00:24.180 anger, rivalries,
01:00:25.400 dissensions, divisions,
01:00:27.500 envy, drunkenness,
01:00:29.380 orgies, and things like
01:00:30.920 these.
01:00:31.500 I warned you, as I
01:00:32.940 warned you before,
01:00:33.880 that those who do
01:00:34.700 such things will not
01:00:36.340 inherit the kingdom of
01:00:37.480 God.
01:00:37.760 And look, there's
01:00:38.420 something there for
01:00:39.380 all of us, by the
01:00:40.380 way.
01:00:41.520 Idolatry, strife,
01:00:43.420 jealousy, fits of
01:00:45.180 anger, rivalries,
01:00:47.200 those people will not
01:00:48.600 inherit the kingdom
01:00:49.680 of God?
01:00:50.980 All of us better be
01:00:52.260 working out our
01:00:52.940 salvation with fear
01:00:53.780 and trembling,
01:00:54.820 knowing that it is by
01:00:55.940 grace we have been
01:00:57.100 saved, but that our
01:00:58.940 obedience is evidence
01:01:00.380 of the faith and the
01:01:01.460 grace that saves us.
01:01:02.760 And so, let us make
01:01:03.880 sure we are walking
01:01:05.140 in holiness with
01:01:07.180 Christ and to take
01:01:08.260 no part in the
01:01:09.640 unfruitful works of
01:01:11.380 darkness, but instead
01:01:12.560 expose them, that is
01:01:14.360 Ephesians 4.
01:01:16.580 So, it's unfortunate
01:01:17.500 that this is a trend,
01:01:19.240 but Christians have to,
01:01:20.440 as always, speak out
01:01:21.500 against it, just as we
01:01:22.580 speak out against all
01:01:23.700 forms of darkness,
01:01:24.980 witchcraft or not.
01:01:27.000 Get my book, Toxic
01:01:28.180 Empathy, in the link
01:01:30.180 in this description.
01:01:31.940 You will not
01:01:33.200 regret it.
01:01:34.040 Thank you guys so
01:01:34.720 much.
01:01:34.940 We'll be back here
01:01:35.560 tomorrow.
