00:01:33.900 covenant month if you need to be reminded of the truth of biblical marriage and what it actually

00:01:39.200 means and why it matters to our christian theology and to our worldview and yes even to our politics and

00:01:46.260 please go back and watch or listen to yesterday's episode today we will be getting into news stories

00:01:52.540 a lot of you have been asking me to comment on the story of the georgia mom who is on life support who

00:01:58.840 is pregnant and so we will be debunking a lot of the narratives that you have seen and giving my best

00:02:05.920 attempt at a pro-life pro-imago day analysis of that situation but first we need to talk about the

00:02:15.900 colorado terror attack that tragically happened over the weekend on sunday june 1st in boulder

00:02:22.100 colorado definitely a progressive stronghold there mohammed sabri solomon a 45 year old egyptian

00:02:30.160 national committed a violent attack on a pro-israel group advocating for the release of israeli hostages

00:02:37.820 the fbi is investigating the incident as a targeted terror attack those are the exact words that the fbi used

00:02:45.220 solomon who was illegally in the united states after overstaying his visa set eight people on fire

00:02:53.140 with 12 total injured this seems to be a pattern with the people who are pro-hamas and anti-israel

00:03:02.820 no matter what side of the issue that you're on i think that we can all agree that any kind of

00:03:08.300 middle eastern conflict has many layers and is very complex and i have given my general position

00:03:16.740 on israel versus palestine many times um and have talked about this with guests who are really

00:03:25.760 experts on this many times but also we realize as christians that we want no innocent people to die

00:03:32.980 we care about the children we care about the lives lost anywhere no matter if it's in israel or if it's

00:03:40.680 in gaza but a pattern that you see over and over again is that those that are pro-hamas and anti-israel

00:03:48.520 in the united states seem to have a greater tendency towards extremism and violence i just haven't seen

00:03:56.240 this kind of radicalism and terrorism and violence coming from the jewish people here in the united 1.00

00:04:02.720 states or from the most ardent pro-israel zionists in the united states there have been lots of

00:04:11.180 demonstrations lots of protests by the pro-palestinian free palestine people here in the united states

00:04:18.200 and i have yet to see any jewish instigated terrorism against those people but i have seen

00:04:25.300 over and over again for example jewish students on their campus being run into the library where they

00:04:33.840 have to take refuge from the radical pro-palestine demonstrators there and so there just seems to be

00:04:41.380 a pattern certainly this pattern is is very prevalent within progressivism in general because

00:04:48.060 when politics is your god or when anything other than the god of scripture is your god you are going

00:04:55.260 to be lost and your moral compass is going to be off and you are more easily radicalized in an extremely

00:05:03.380 violent way and so that is surely what happened here and plus islam in general is just like 0.98

00:05:10.620 it's a violent religion that doesn't mean that everyone who is muslim is going to commit 0.91

00:05:15.580 violence but there is a reason why almost every single terrorist regime in the world is islamic 0.99

00:05:23.220 that's not like oh that's just a coincidence i don't know how that happened it is the ideology

00:05:28.040 that drives them it is inherently violent so again lots of patterns here lots of commonalities

00:05:36.640 that we should just be able to call out no matter what you think about the specific israel gaza conflict

00:05:42.960 going on right now so solomon allegedly used a makeshift flamethrower made from a garden sprayer

00:05:50.640 filled with gasoline and through molotov cocktails while shouting free palestine and in zionist why is it 0.76

00:05:59.100 that with progressives freedom and liberation always means terrible violence this was during the

00:06:06.620 pro israel event on pearl street in boulder and here the guy is after the attack saw one

00:06:13.940 okay so i know he might look just like your standard white guy from here but he's not he might have kind

00:06:35.260 of like light skin uh but he's not as i said he's an egyptian national he apparently is muslim he is fighting

00:06:42.640 on behalf of the islamic cause and we know that radical muslims around the world it's not just that they 1.00

00:06:50.100 believe that palestine is their land it's not that they believe that there is an apartheid going on it's not

00:06:55.200 that they believe that the palestinians are being oppressed by israel if they really cared about muslim

00:06:59.640 oppression then they would stop oppressing muslims muslims are most oppressed by other muslims and muslims that are

00:07:06.260 in charge muslim authorities much more than they are oppressed by israel or any jew but muslim ideology again 0.61

00:07:13.600 it has within it intertwined within it a hatred for the jewish people also a hatred for christians

00:07:21.120 but really there seems to be a more uh a passionate hatred toward the jews in much of muslim ideology

00:07:30.080 and so that is part of what's going on here court documents show that he told the fbi after his

00:07:35.660 arrest that he had been planning the attack for a year huh like just i guess was missed the fbi didn't 0.94

00:07:43.720 see him didn't know as for his motive he said he wanted to kill all zionist people and wish they were 0.95

00:07:48.280 all dead huh he also said that he would do it again let's talk about the victims because their 0.98

00:07:56.160 lives really matter eight victims aged 52 to 88 were hospitalized for burns with one in critical

00:08:04.120 condition four victims received minor injuries they endured minor injuries no deaths were reported

00:08:11.040 as of this morning tuesday june 3rd one victim was an 88 year old holocaust survivor

00:08:18.000 according to rabbi israel wilhelm the shabad director at the university of colorado boulder her name has

00:08:26.020 not yet been identified um and obviously it's tragic when any person is victimized but when you're

00:08:34.820 talking about someone who survived the holocaust who saw her relatives survive the holocaust still

00:08:41.080 this many decades later and during that kind of violent jew hate it's really sad the pro-israel group

00:08:50.420 called run for their lives is a grassroots organization which was holding a weekly gathering

00:08:54.920 to call for the release of israeli hostages held by hamas like let us not forget how this conflict

00:09:01.780 started that hamas decided that they were going to paraglide into a music festival and kill and 0.77

00:09:11.480 torment and kidnap and rape innocent israelis okay that's how this started and then they took hostages

00:09:18.740 including babies over to their side and starved and killed them okay and so when we're talking about

00:09:27.840 what israel has done and the violence they have inflicted i say this as someone who wants no child 1.00

00:09:33.680 to die who wants no baby to die no innocent person to die but when we look at what israel is doing they 0.99

00:09:40.800 are doing this in response to what happened on october 7th all right let us not forget that let us not

00:09:48.100 forget that there are still hostages being held by hamas and the majority of the palestinians actually

00:09:54.560 support hamas i think it's also important to remember that all right we've got more details

00:09:59.200 on the story but let me pause and tell you about our first sponsor and that is seven weeks coffee i

00:10:05.120 had my seven weeks coffee this morning it's got me ready to go to seize the day seven weeks coffee is

00:11:09.820 solomon faces a federal hate crime charge 16 state counts of attempted first degree murder additional charges

00:11:21.140 for using incendiary devices with potential penalties of life in prison uh fbi deputy director dan

00:11:28.740 bongino described the attack as quote ideologically motivated violence with ongoing investigations to confirm

00:11:35.200 motives and connections boulder police chief steven red for redfarn uh was hesitant at first to call

00:11:41.780 the event a terrorist attack at first they were saying oh we don't know the motive behind it that's

00:11:46.400 what they always do the fbi is already calling it a targeted terror attack uh would you also refer to

00:11:52.960 it as a terror attack and this was a journalist asking him a question at a press conference and he said

00:11:57.680 we're not going to call it a terrorist attack at this point again it's too early to speculate motive i mean

00:12:02.940 the guy literally said i hate zionists and i wish they were dead and by the way i'll also do this 0.93

00:12:07.640 again and the police are like no idea no idea maybe he was just having a bad day redfarn also said i

00:12:15.140 cannot confirm right now that this was targeted at a specific group of people okay redfarn was promoted

00:12:22.300 to the position of boulder police chief in september 2024 after serving as deputy chief since 2021 pledging to

00:12:29.700 quote make policing equitable and effective in its core mission and the translation we learned in 2020

00:12:36.400 means that you are going to arrest fewer immigrants fewer hispanic people fewer black people fewer people

00:12:43.220 who call themselves transgender etc those that you might call a progressive might call oppressed or

00:12:49.420 marginalized and try to arrest more white people that's what equitable means being soft on crime 0.89

00:12:56.800 redfarn is also openly gay and married to a man the department unveiled a pride badge in june of

00:13:04.720 2024 because that's what's important when you are enforcing the law and the reason why that's relevant

00:13:09.760 is because it is possible that this person is just a diversity hire obviously this police department

00:13:16.360 is ideologically motivated it doesn't surprise me that this person would want to say that this illegal

00:13:23.220 alien that this person who is pro free palestine that oh we just don't know the motive this is probably

00:13:29.740 just a one-off uh fbi deputy director dan bagino explained on x why the fbi immediately said that

00:13:39.000 they were investigating the attack as terrorism before the local police did when the evidence passed to

00:13:44.140 our fbi leadership team from an active crime scene includes clearly ideologically motivated statements

00:13:50.560 video multiple witness accounts we will investigate those incidents as targeted acts of terror if the

00:13:55.680 investigation turns a different direction despite the evidence we can make adjustments we are not the

00:14:01.260 federal bureau of word games solomon was granted work authorization in the united states in march 2023

00:14:08.180 by the biden administration despite his expired visa status so again being soft on crime being soft on

00:14:17.760 immigration has consequences policy has consequences whom we elect has consequences when you elect people

00:14:25.180 that are soft on crime who are pro open borders who think that it's actually positive for our country

00:14:31.060 to allow people to stay here who should never be here in the first place who are radical islamists 1.00

00:14:37.880 and who are here illegally then you will pay the consequences of that biden will never pay the consequences

00:14:44.820 of that those who worked for him who are part of the elite class and who live in gated communities

00:14:50.380 and who pay extra not to have to live next to riffraff they will never pay the consequences of that but 0.91

00:14:57.940 regular working people will have to pay the consequences of the bad and irresponsible virtue signaling policy

00:15:04.080 decisions that politicians make policy matters because politics matter no politics matter because policy

00:15:10.560 matters because people matter politics affects policy policy affects people and people matter illegal aliens

00:15:17.360 have to go they all have to go back it doesn't matter if they are now some kind of radical extremist like

00:15:24.220 this doesn't matter if they've committed a violent crime they have no right to be here and if we are a

00:15:30.340 country then we have to have borders if we are if we don't have borders then we're not a country then you are

00:15:36.280 not a citizen then no one has rights that can be afforded especially to citizens and there's no

00:15:41.800 right of our government or law enforcement to be able to protect us and no responsibility either they

00:15:47.560 all have to go back that is a righteous decision that is a good decision if you're confused about that

00:15:53.040 please just read my immigration chapter in toxic empathy we go through all of the stories the competing

00:16:01.220 data the competing anecdotes that is probably the chapter that people need to read the most right

00:16:07.240 now because you've got a lot of people who are using that toxic empathy to emotionally manipulate

00:16:12.900 you into believing that the biblical position is to believe that a country shouldn't have borders

00:16:18.440 god is a god of order he places in a garden not in a jungle he does not want chaos for people because

00:16:23.840 we flourish when order exists steven miller seems to understand this a lot especially when it comes to

00:16:30.800 immigration he says a terror attack was committed in boulder colorado by an illegal alien he was

00:16:35.720 granted a tourist visa by the biden administration and then he illegally overstayed that visa in response

00:16:40.640 the biden administration gave him a work permit suicidal migration must be fully reversed he's

00:16:49.800 absolutely right suicidal migration is the result of toxic empathy scott jennings who is kind of like

00:16:55.980 the republican guy on cnn said what more do we need to see before we acknowledge this free

00:17:00.640 palestine movement is nothing more than a domestic terror organization we are in a fight for the 0.72

00:17:05.300 future of western civilization and we need to come to grips with it and fast um jake tapper on cnn he

00:17:13.780 kind of started rambling about like right wing antisemitism in response to the boulder colorado

00:17:19.640 terror attack which had nothing to do with right wing antisemitism um antisemitism obviously is a big

00:17:26.880 problem on the left he said it's also a big problem on the right i want to make clear i'm not doing

00:17:32.720 whataboutism but it's actually like exactly what you are doing here's that too it is also a problem on

00:17:41.080 the right uh i mean in addition to the tree of life uh synagogue killing uh in pittsburgh um which is

00:17:47.160 obviously uh homicidal um there's been reporting recently that the pentagon press secretary kingsley

00:17:52.860 wilson uh has a history of social media posts pushing anti-semitic tropes extremist theories um

00:17:59.660 the problem right now that we're seeing in terms of violence is on the left and i want to make it

00:18:03.640 clear i'm not what about is i'm not doing what about ism okay but like that's what you did you might

00:18:11.380 not have said the words what about but you're a smart guy jake tapper that's exactly what you were

00:18:17.820 doing right there um msnbc contributor tab winter said there's an individual who is taken into custody

00:18:24.560 he's a white male okay so three there's an individual that's taken into custody uh he's a

00:18:31.220 white male whether or not that's the person that police ultimately arrested and will ultimately charge

00:18:36.360 in this crime a bit of a question at this time but that's just what we've seen so far

00:18:40.620 okay to be fair the guy did look like a white male i will say that like he did look like that

00:18:47.280 but i would be surprised if msnbc ever corrected their reporting and said that he's an illegal alien

00:18:52.420 and you will see people say well it's irrelevant because people who are citizens commit these kind

00:18:58.460 of crimes all the time it's not irrelevant because every crime that is committed by an illegal alien 0.81

00:19:03.520 is preventable unlike crimes that are committed by citizens okay and people who say well citizens

00:19:09.300 actually commit more crimes than illegal aliens you don't know that i don't know that no one knows

00:19:13.260 that if they are by definition undocumented then there's really no way to know how many of them

00:19:20.020 are committing crimes and by the way every single one of them is a criminal because it is a crime

00:19:25.400 to cross the border illegally there was this awful story out of texas where at lake travis this

00:19:31.480 young woman who was about to enter the air force she was run over while she was kayaking

00:19:36.880 by an illegal alien from venezuela two illegal aliens who were on a seadoo ran into her saw that they ran 0.71

00:19:44.120 into her she died and they sped away and thankfully they were arrested they're going to be deported and

00:19:51.480 all of that but that woman would be alive if we had had administrations that were enforcing immigration 1.00

00:20:00.980 policy and we're protecting our border just because we have criminals we have murderers that are citizens

00:20:08.360 doesn't mean we need to add to the crimes committed by citizens by importing a bunch of new people that will 0.65

00:20:13.580 also commit crimes every crime that is committed by an illegal alien is preventable unfortunately there are a lot 0.99

00:20:21.900 of people on tiktok who are celebrating this we don't know who these people are there's always going to be crazy

00:20:27.640 people on either side of an issue or either side of the political aisle who are anonymous online saying

00:20:33.180 crazy things but i think it's worth noting that you do see people saying not all heroes uh wear capes

00:20:39.440 and the survivor of the holocaust this person is referencing thought he escaped after all of these

00:20:45.920 years um congratulations someone said we failed to wipe them out is saul's time for attacking us 1.00

00:20:53.300 coming from the sea what a hero someone says someone says hero with the palestinian flag give this man a

00:21:00.420 nobel prize and so it's just really unfortunate that the people who say that they are anti-oppression

00:21:05.500 they're anti-violence they just care so much about the children in gaza it's really not about that for

00:21:11.760 a lot of people not saying everyone but for a lot of people on that side they really just don't like

00:21:18.020 jews and they really just don't like israel and we just need to understand that we need to be clear 0.99

00:21:24.700 about that all right we've got to get into our other stories but let me pause and tell you about

00:21:30.160 share the arrows brought to you by our friends at carly jean los angeles i know a lot of you missed out

00:22:27.440 okay this georgia mom who is on life support this story has been circulating for several weeks i have

00:22:40.060 talked about it a little bit on instagram but i'm glad that i waited to fully talk about it on the show

00:22:45.780 because there are so many different layers and details to this story that have been revealed and i

00:22:51.840 wanted to make sure that i got it right this is the story of the woman who is on life support and

00:22:58.460 who has a baby that is growing inside her womb and because of georgia law the the doctors cannot take 0.98

00:23:05.780 her off of life support and they are actually going to deliver this child and of course you've got pro

00:23:10.800 choicers pro abortion advocates saying this is so awful this is using this woman as a lifeless

00:23:16.840 incubator and they should have just you know let her off life support let the baby die you've even 1.00

00:23:22.680 got some of her family members it seems saying oh we should have a choice and you've got a lot of

00:23:27.720 pro-life and pro choicers pro-abortionists going back and forth but you've got some people on the

00:23:32.700 pro-life side saying okay this is not as clear cut as some pro-lifers are making it out to be and i have

00:23:39.800 said of course we should give this baby a chance at life and i actually thought this whole situation was

00:23:45.680 being made possible by georgia pro-life law anti-abortion law i was wrong about that it

00:23:51.580 actually has nothing to do with the georgia abortion law and that's exactly what the left

00:23:56.320 wants you to think what pro-abortionists want you to think that this is because of some draconian

00:24:00.860 archaic pro-life law in georgia and that this has to do with the overturning of roe v weight no that's

00:24:07.940 not what this is about at all this is actually because of a law that was passed a while ago that was

00:24:13.200 supported by a lot of progressives at the time so let's get into it if you don't know what i'm

00:24:17.300 talking about i'll back up and give you the details of this story adriana smith is a 30 year old 1.00

00:24:22.600 nurse and mother from atlanta georgia she was declared brain dead on february 19th 2025

00:24:28.560 after suffering severe blood clots to her brain tragic situation which caused irreversible neurological

00:24:35.840 damage at the time smith was approximately nine weeks pregnant with her second child emory university

00:24:42.340 hospital where smith is being treated has decided to maintain her life to um to preserve her life

00:24:50.600 to keep her on life support to allow the baby to develop until it reaches viability he reaches

00:24:56.400 viability i'm pretty sure it's a baby boy projected to be around 32 weeks of gestation based on medical

00:25:02.820 assessments a c-section um based on medical assessments a c-section is scheduled for august of

00:25:09.240 2025 smith's family including her mother april claims that they were informed by doctors that

00:25:16.120 george's abortion law required maintaining life support stripping them of medical decision making 0.98

00:25:21.380 rights and they described the situation as emotionally torturous and financially burdensome

00:25:27.400 in an interview with 11 alive published may 19th newkirk said that they had named this new baby boy

00:25:33.840 chance and that he is doing better than the last time i met with the doctors he has his

00:25:38.180 toes arms limbs everything is forming we're just hoping he makes it so there's been some conflicting

00:25:43.300 stories on the one hand we hear that adriana's mom april has told reporters i'm angry that we didn't

00:25:50.100 get a choice we want to be able to have a choice whether or not we can end this pregnancy and take her 1.00

00:25:57.020 off life support but at the same time we also see these reports of april saying no like we want our baby

00:26:04.880 boy to be able to live i want my grandchild to be okay and it could be that she has expressed both of

00:26:12.800 these sentiments uh new kirk april did express frustration about not having to say but saying

00:26:20.900 we didn't have a choice or say about it we want the baby that's a part of my daughter but the decision

00:26:25.120 should have been left to us not the state the family started to go fund me and they've raised a lot

00:26:32.100 of money adriana also has a seven-year-old son um and uh other family that is very sad understandably

00:26:42.300 and broken over this situation right now the baby is about 24 weeks gestation according to doctors

00:26:48.380 has shown signs of potential health complications including fluid accumulation on the brain of course

00:26:54.680 it makes sense because a baby's health does correspond to the health of his mother women 0.50

00:27:02.200 aren't just incubators and this is obviously going to present potential complications for this child

00:27:10.260 adriana's family is claiming that emory health care the hospital is maintaining life support due to

00:27:16.200 george's abortion law which is known as the life act that prohibits abortions after a fetal heartbeat is

00:27:22.260 detected typically around six weeks gestation with limited exceptions georgia attorney general chris

00:27:27.800 carr's office released a statement on may 19th clarifying that the hospital is not required by this

00:27:33.780 pro-life law by the life law to maintain life support for a brain dead patient to keep her child alive

00:27:39.580 removing life support is not in action with the purpose of terminating a pregnancy and remember when we

00:27:46.760 were talking about all of the propaganda about the dobbs decision especially before the last election

00:27:52.460 we went through the state legislation that prevents abortions and we looked at the fact that these laws

00:27:59.540 very specifically define what counts as an illegal abortion it's not removing an ectopic pregnancy

00:28:06.460 it is not a dnc after a woman miscarries her baby it is the purposeful ending of a child's life 0.99

00:28:14.140 and so the george attorney general is saying no this this is not prohibited to take her off

00:28:19.300 life support is not prohibited under our pro-life law uh that is not the law that's at play here and

00:28:27.620 thankfully our friends at live action have fact-checked this and have told us what is actually uh in play

00:28:36.220 here so the title of this article is fact check is a pro-life law forcing a brain dead pregnant woman to stay

00:28:42.380 on life support so we'll go through that in just a second let me pause and tell you about good ranchers

00:28:47.520 y'all this is a great father's day present for the related bro in your life whether it's your dad or

00:28:52.700 your husband they want all american meat from good ranchers chief related bro and i had their fillets

00:28:59.020 the other night so good i mean just as good as any like fancy steakhouse steak that i've had all we do is

00:29:06.000 put salt and pepper on it for seasoning it is so good and i love that we're supporting american farms and

00:29:11.680 ranchers we eat there better than organic chicken a lot multiple nights a week because that is the

00:29:17.200 protein that our kids will eat we love their bacon we love their seafood we rely on it almost every

00:29:23.100 night in this ducky home if you use my code ally you get forty dollars off your order plus when you

00:29:29.140 subscribe they will add on a bag of meat to your subscription for the life of your subscription

00:29:34.820 go to good ranchers.com use promo code ally at checkout that's good ranchers.com code ally

00:29:40.820 so this is according to life action george's life act defines abortion as quote the act of using

00:29:52.620 prescribing or administering any instrument substance device or other means with the purpose to terminate

00:29:57.760 a pregnancy with knowledge determination will with reasonable likelihood cause the death of an unborn

00:30:02.660 child so that very clear and specific definition is right there for the doctors at the hospital for

00:30:09.120 anyone in georgia for any activist in the world to read on their own so anyone who says it's the

00:30:14.960 fault of the pro-life law that these doctors are allowing women to die or allowing women to stay on

00:30:20.160 life support to keep their child alive it's not the law's fault it might be the lawyer's fault it might

00:30:25.740 might be the hospital administration's fault it might be the doctor's fault it might be you

00:30:29.940 activist fault but it is not actually the law's fault if you have a specific suggestion for what should

00:30:36.360 be added to the law i think you can make that suggestion i've seen many pro-lifers doing that

00:30:41.100 because we want clarity we don't want women to die we know that the life of the mother is just as

00:30:46.380 important as the life of the child there's only one side that wants a person to die in this whole

00:30:52.180 thing and it's the pro-abortion side removing smith this woman from life supports his live action does 1.00

00:30:57.580 not fit the life acts definition of abortion an act done with the purpose of terminating a woman's

00:31:02.640 pregnancy to cause the pre-born child's death however there is a law that does apply georgia's

00:31:08.180 law regarding life support the georgia advanced directive for health care act that has been in

00:31:14.300 effect since 2007 15 years prior to georgia's life act that is what is more likely at play here

00:31:22.800 so georgia code 31 32 9 from 2007 states the doctors can't withdraw life support from pregnant

00:31:31.940 patients and last both one the fetus is not viable and two the patient had an advanced directive

00:31:39.640 explicitly stating she wanted withdrawal of life uh sustaining measures so here's what it says prior

00:31:47.500 to effecting a withholding or withdrawal of life sustaining measures or the withholding or withdrawal

00:31:51.880 of the provision of nourishment or hydration from a declarant pursuant to the declarant directions

00:31:56.560 in an advanced directive for health care the attending physician okay so this is a lot of legal

00:32:01.920 and medical language i basically already summarized that uh in this case says live action when smith was

00:32:09.020 first put on life support her baby was not old enough to have been able to survive a premature birth

00:32:13.960 but this baby is now 21 weeks and babies born at this gestational age have survived in some cases with

00:32:20.300 medical intervention his chances of survival will increase to 95 percent if he is allowed to remain

00:32:26.320 in the womb until 32 weeks my question is when the law says when this law that again was enacted in 2007

00:32:34.860 with even support of georgia democrats at the time when it says if the fetus is not viable then you can

00:32:41.160 withdraw life sustaining support from this woman from this patient what exactly does viability mean

00:32:47.300 because typically in the medical world viability means about 24 weeks gestation even though there are

00:32:52.680 babies who are born and survive uh before that even 21 weeks i think the youngest is 19 weeks typically

00:33:00.780 it's 24 weeks gestation is the gestational age of viability that a lot of doctors estimate um and so

00:33:10.080 if that is the case that i'm not really sure why these doctors felt that they had to keep her on life

00:33:16.160 support when she was only nine weeks pregnant does viability at that point mean that the baby doesn't

00:33:23.160 have any known fetal fatal anomalies i'm just not totally sure what law is being referenced what legal

00:33:34.140 uh specifications are being referenced by these doctors when they say that she has to be kept alive also

00:33:41.180 maybe she had some directive that we don't know about but here is how npr and other left-wing media

00:33:49.440 outlets are portraying this this is probably how you've seen it on instagram npr a brain dead woman's

00:33:56.780 pregnancy raises questions about georgia's abortion law the guardian fetus of brain dead georgia woman

00:34:02.820 kept alive due to abortion ban is growing says family okay usa today a brain dead pregnant georgia 0.94

00:34:10.920 woman is a horror story it's republicans fault fox 5 atlanta lawmakers clash over care of pregnant 1.00

00:34:17.040 brain dead georgia woman um and then they go on to again blame the pro-life law ex-users are outraged

00:34:27.260 we've got someone who says adriana smith is brain dead her family can't say goodbye because the state

00:34:34.040 demands her corpse remain alive for a fetus by the way there are a lot of medical questions and a lot of

00:34:39.800 debate in the medical community about brain dead and what that actually means is that even a medically

00:34:46.100 accurate term you've got other pro-aborts saying georgia's keeping a brain dead woman alive without 1.00

00:34:53.080 giving her family say so because she's pregnant and on and on you've probably seen a lot of people say

00:34:59.180 that this is like the handmaid's tale that she's just being used as some kind of objectified

00:35:06.180 incubator and in a way like her womb is incubating this child she is incubating this growing baby but

00:35:16.360 this baby is a human being this baby is alive this baby is made in the image of god and while we

00:35:23.560 absolutely mourn this situation we want this woman to be alive we are also thankful for the technology

00:35:30.000 that allows this baby not to die now not everyone on the pro-life side sees it that way and i would

00:35:38.020 never question the sincerity of the pro-life stance of some of the people who disagree with me on the

00:35:45.020 ethics of this like dr abby johnson whom we've had on before she says this she says i know i'm the odd

00:35:52.200 man out in this georgia situation where a woman is being essentially used as an incubator to keep a 0.99

00:35:56.720 child alive she was pronounced brain dead when her unborn child was nine weeks along she is being

00:36:01.500 kept artificially alive for now over 11 weeks in order to continue the pregnancy she says i have a

00:36:07.100 huge ethical problem with this death is natural keeping people alive by dehumanizing the mother

00:36:11.780 into the form of an incubator is in my opinion unethical and dehumanizing women are made to have 1.00

00:36:18.640 babies are not made to have babies even if they are dead obviously she knows that women are made to 1.00

00:36:24.900 have babies in general but she's saying when they're dead she said natural death is okay life

00:36:29.540 and death are two places in medicine where we've just gone too far we've got charlie kirk who says

00:36:33.940 a woman in georgia is being kept on life support so that the child she is carrying can come to term and

00:36:38.600 be born i was asked about this case while in britain apparently people thousands of miles away are

00:36:44.060 scandalized this is happening i'll admit charlie says that i'm completely baffled as to what the

00:36:49.080 controversy is here literally none of the arguments typically offered by pro-abortion advocates apply here

00:36:54.160 there's no threat to the mother's life or health there is no threat to her personal autonomy there

00:36:59.140 is no threat to her of any kind it is literally impossible to harm her the only person facing any

00:37:04.080 kind of potential harm is her unborn child in one situation two people definitely die in the other

00:37:09.080 situation a child may be able to live saving lives is a good thing this is only controversial if you

00:37:17.160 actually view killing unborn children as a good thing and want more dead children for its own sake so 1.00

00:37:22.860 i am on that side that is where i am that if we have the opportunity to preserve one life to save

00:37:29.660 the innocent life of this child then we should that's not true in every situation uh where the

00:37:37.000 mother who is pregnant dies but in this case there's an opportunity to save this child and i would think

00:37:43.060 that her family would want this that the father of this child would want this and that the mother would

00:37:48.520 want this yes i would absolutely sacrifice my body so that my child could live and so that is my

00:37:56.260 perspective um my perspective on this situation and so again a lot of propaganda from the pro-abortion

00:38:03.720 side who simply just believes that unborn babies aren't real people and shouldn't have a right to life

00:38:09.320 so you shouldn't be listening to them at all about anything when it comes to this all right one more

00:38:16.220 story to cover today and this has to do with something going on reportedly in the trump

00:38:21.340 administration that is very troubling to me as a christian so we'll get into that in just a second

00:38:26.820 let me pause and tell you about our last sponsor that is adele natural cosmetics i use adele every

00:38:32.680 day i use their essential cleanser every night to take off my makeup to make sure that my skin is fresh

00:39:05.140 totally holistic and that's why she started adele all of their products are completely natural they don't have

00:39:11.080 any synthetic fragrances no endocrine disruptors everything is from god's medicine cabinet and they

00:39:38.180 this story is about a man named floyd brown who started the outlet the western journal he is a

00:39:52.320 conservative commentator and author he was recently according to him fired from his position of vice

00:39:59.000 president of development at the kennedy center for performing arts so this is a performing arts center

00:40:05.400 that is partially funded by the taxpayer it's in washington dc it features theater dance musical

00:40:11.500 performances as well as educational and outreach programs he says that he was fired on may 28th

00:40:18.340 after being contacted by cnn asking for his comments regarding past statements that he has made about the

00:40:25.460 quote homosexual influence in the gop he says that he was fired by rick grinnell the current interim

00:40:33.320 president of the kennedy center who is openly gay he is in a homosexual quote-unquote marriage he also

00:40:39.500 professes to be a christian himself so here are some of the things that he said about homosexuality in 0.56

00:40:45.400 the past in a 2011 column on his website he wrote no clear words than william f buckley's express our

00:40:52.300 own sentiment towards homosexuality it is a sin and the addict is to be pitied and accepted in 1.00

00:40:56.940 christian love but not the pusher or promoter of the agenda on a conservative talk radio program in

00:41:02.460 2023 brown stated homosexuality is a punishment that comes upon a nation that is rejecting god 0.90

00:41:07.040 they're debasing themselves and their humanity like this is the position of many many christians by the way

00:41:13.680 this is the position that the bible articulates uh floyd says that he sent this to cnn after they

00:41:19.440 requested the comments he says it's an honor to work at the kennedy center comments rooted in my

00:41:24.700 personal christian views which i've made in the past have no impact upon my work here at the kennedy

00:41:29.000 center nor do they impinge on my interactions with colleagues who do incredible work for the patrons of

00:41:34.760 the center as a christian i am called to work with others of different beliefs and world views he's honored

00:41:41.000 to work for rick grinnell and donald trump and that he is united with them in their mission to bring

00:41:47.660 wholesome entertainment showcasing the best of performing arts and music to america he said it

00:41:52.220 was truly not my intention to offend anyone with my comments i've never intended to attack or demean

00:41:57.040 any person in my statements i've always shared the mission of jesus striving to love others

00:42:03.400 unconditionally personally i think this is too much to give to cnn in a statement if i were talking to

00:42:10.340 cnn i don't think i would have talked that much you got to be so careful um so then after he was fired

00:42:16.240 he says i was fired yesterday by rick grinnell from the john f kennedy center for the performing

00:42:20.500 arts one month ago i was recruited to join the kennedy center as vice president my firing came

00:42:25.180 approximately two hours after cnn sent an email asking me to comment on my past writings about the

00:42:30.300 homosexual influence in the gop he says floyd brown says i asked for an explanation of my dismissal

00:42:37.100 and i asked to speak to rick grinnell both of those requests have been ignored the only explanation is

00:42:42.340 the one given to me at the time of my firing floyd you must recant your belief in traditional marriage

00:42:47.360 and your past statements on the topic or you will be fired needless to say i refused to recant and was

00:42:54.600 shown the door my beliefs are much more common to biblical christianity my only conclusion is rick

00:42:59.720 grinnell was intimidated by a cnn story which hasn't been aired or published so he preemptively fired me

00:43:05.420 for my christian beliefs on marriage okay so i haven't seen any statement from rick grinnell

00:43:13.600 about this so we cannot confirm or deny whether this is true but it does seem that cnn is taking

00:43:22.700 credit for the firing of floyd they ran a story about floyd's firing on thursday may 29th calling

00:43:27.980 him a quote far-right activist with a history of anti-gay comments they did admit that they had reached

00:43:32.640 out to him for comment regarding an investigation but didn't say what the investigation was about

00:43:38.920 cnn did cast doubt on a part of floyd's post saying that a source familiar with the kennedy center

00:43:43.740 confirmed to cnn that brown is no longer working there and said that grinnell had not met with

00:43:49.420 brown did not know him and was not involved in his hiring despite floyd's claims that he had met

00:43:54.900 grinnell previously during his time as a political organizer in arizona and that grinnell was involved in

00:43:59.700 his firing so it seems to me like this is floyd's interpretation of what happened i don't know for

00:44:06.440 sure if his interpretation is correct but rick grinnell was involved in an election in the election

00:44:15.220 of dr oz and kathy bennett and he shared i don't know if he made but he shared videos that were

00:44:21.740 completely doctored and decontextualized things that kathy bennett had said about blm made it seem like

00:44:28.360 she was saying things about blm that were positive when actually she was saying the opposite so i have

00:44:33.660 seen what i think is very dishonest behavior from him i don't know how involved he was in the hiring

00:44:39.140 and firing of this person but as a christian conservative who shares these principles about

00:44:44.220 the definition of biblical marriage with someone like floyd brown this is a troubling report and i hope

00:44:50.000 that we find out what is actually true and i just want to say if you are a christian who holds fast to

00:44:57.180 the natural and biblical definition of marriage and if you work for the trump administration

00:45:01.720 do not allow this to intimidate you share the arrows and make sure that you are standing strong

00:45:07.400 because there are a lot of you in the trump administration there are a lot of you in the

00:45:11.300 executive branch there are a lot of you out there who voted for donald trump

00:45:14.720 and what you believe is not only right but it also matters so don't be intimidated by this

00:45:21.300 go back listen to yesterday's episode you'll get a lot of encouragement all right before we close out
