00:00:21.040
Okay, we've got so much to talk about today. I want to give you an update
00:00:25.300
on this terrible story about the 10-year-old girl in Ohio. We were told she had to
00:00:29.900
travel to Indiana to get an abortion after she was raped. There are quite a few updates on that
00:00:35.400
story, so I am going to give you that. We'll see how much we can get into as well with the rest of
00:00:41.980
what I want to discuss. Leah Thomas, Will Thomas being nominated as Woman of the Year by UPenn for
00:00:50.380
the NCAA Woman of the Year contest award that they host. And then we are also going to talk about this
00:00:58.940
shooting that occurred in Minneapolis. I think you pronounce his name, Tekel Sundberg. He was shot
00:01:06.420
by the police. BLM is protesting over this, trying to raise money, but he was armed. And the woman that
00:01:13.640
he shot at, the mother that he shot at, is speaking out. And she is really protesting BLM. And so we're
00:01:20.880
going to talk about that and what that says about social justice. If we have time, we're going to talk
00:01:26.180
about a couple more stories. It's going to kind of be rapid fire. We did this a couple weeks ago. You
00:01:31.280
guys seem to really like that when we cover a variety of topics in one episode. For those of you
00:01:37.260
who are new, we kind of typically focus on one story or one theme of stories and really kind of
00:01:43.620
dig deep into them, looking at not just the political and the cultural implications, but also
00:01:48.660
the theological implications. And today we're going to do something that's a little bit different from
00:01:55.720
our norm. And that is just go through a series of stories. But first, before I get into that series
00:02:00.560
of new stories that I want to discuss, there are two other things that have to do with me that I want
00:02:06.360
to talk about. So first, if you have not seen the skit that went out yesterday, where I am dressed
00:02:12.620
as your favorite Native American senator, Elizabeth Warren, going to a very scary and predatory
00:02:20.940
pregnancy center, exposing what's really going on there, then you need to watch that. That's on
00:02:27.960
Twitter. It's on my Instagram. It's also on my YouTube channel. A lot of you really like when I do
00:02:34.900
these kinds of skits, these kinds of satirical videos. I used to do them more in the past. I don't
00:02:40.960
do them as much anymore, but I'll try to get more consistent with it. If you don't know the context
00:02:45.700
of this, Senator Warren last week said to reporters that basically these pregnancy centers have to be
00:02:52.580
shut down, not just in Massachusetts, but they need to be shut down across the country because
00:02:56.820
they're doing really scary things. They're luring these pregnant people, she would say, in by making
00:03:03.420
them think that they perform abortions, which that in itself isn't true. And then they are,
00:03:09.380
I don't know, scaring them with ultrasounds and other information about adoption and things like
00:03:14.520
that. And she actually said that these pregnancy centers are terrorizing these women. Now, you guys
00:03:21.200
know that I talk a lot about the wonders and the charity, the generosity, the dedication of pregnancy
00:03:29.740
centers across the country. You have been extremely generous in giving your money to the pregnancy
00:03:37.680
centers that I have supported, that I've talked about here on the show, as well as on my social
00:03:43.720
media. You guys have donated thousands and thousands and thousands of dollars and items, resources to
00:03:52.740
women and children and families in need. And so I wanted to highlight through this video what these
00:03:59.440
pregnancy centers look like, what they do, but also have kind of a humorous spin on it to mock the
00:04:06.660
ridiculousness and really the wickedness of Senator Warren. So if you haven't seen that, I'll just play
00:04:11.820
this little clip. This is where people with the capability to have a fetus somewhere in their body
00:04:20.280
are getting free sonograms. Do you know what this is? Do you know what they see in there? Do you know
00:04:27.760
that they are more likely to stay pregnant once they see that thing on the screen?
00:04:34.980
So it's about three and a half minutes long. Watch it, share it. It makes, you know, those dual
00:04:41.360
points of showing how absurd she is, but also how wonderful and how Christ-centered and truly how
00:04:46.500
loving and altruistic these pregnancy centers are. God bless them. If you have not looked up your local
00:04:52.860
pregnancy center to donate your time or your money, or maybe your gently used baby items to,
00:04:58.880
or maybe your expertise. These centers are also looking for people to help run their parenting
00:05:03.840
courses. If you're a nurse or a retired nurse, they could be looking for that kind of professional
00:05:09.020
medical help. And, or if you are, if you've got expert, if you're a stenographer, retired,
00:05:15.880
there are so many opportunities for you. There are so many opportunities for you at your local
00:05:19.960
pregnancy center. I promise that they will not turn away the kind of help that you offer. It's
00:05:27.040
very strange to me how much the so-called pro-choice side really hates these pregnancy
00:05:31.900
centers. If you're really for choice, shouldn't you be for the choice of parenting too? Therefore,
00:05:37.080
shouldn't you be supporting these centers that are making it easier to make that choice? I mean,
00:05:41.500
these centers are actually educating women on the options. They're educating them on exactly what
00:05:47.120
abortion is. They're educating them on gestation. They're allowing these women to hear a heartbeat,
00:05:52.220
to look at the sonogram. Don't you think if you're truly pro-choice, you should be pro-informed
00:05:57.620
choice? That's what these pregnancy centers are doing that Planned Parenthood is not. Not only
00:06:01.700
does Planned Parenthood not offer any of the resources that these pregnancy centers do,
00:06:06.640
but they also don't offer the information about adoption, about parenting. They're looking to make
00:06:11.220
that money by dismembering children inside the womb. So once again, this is not some kind of
00:06:16.380
nuanced topic where Christians should be debating whether or not you want to preserve life inside
00:06:22.600
the womb and also serve and love the parents involved or be on the other side, which is not
00:06:29.320
serve the mother at all and simply slaughter the unborn child. So for anyone who says you shouldn't be
00:06:38.320
anti-abortion or you shouldn't be for pro-life laws unless you are doing more for women, unless you are
00:06:45.760
showing up for them, unless you are taking care of them after birth, join us. Join us. These centers
00:06:51.300
exist by the thousands all across the country. You are welcome at any point to get off the couch and
00:06:57.100
actually help do the work that pro-lifers have been doing for decades now. All right, before we get into
00:07:03.820
my next topic, my next story, let me tell you about my first sponsor for the day. This one is near and
00:07:08.760
dear to my heart. It is Moms for Liberty. So actually over the weekend, I was in Tampa for a very
00:07:14.640
quick 24-hour trip to speak at this Moms for Liberty conference. They're an amazing organization,
00:07:21.340
started with just two concerned moms last year. Now they have 200 chapters in 37 states,
00:07:29.120
thousands and thousands of moms who have come together to be informed and involved in their
00:07:35.860
child's education, especially when it comes to public education. So they're not just going to
00:07:39.960
these school board meetings. They're also running candidates for the school board. They are replacing
00:07:45.500
these progressive and sometimes these very dangerous and harmful school board members with
00:07:54.060
liberty-minded moms. And they're advocating for your child as well as for their children. It was an honor
00:07:59.640
for me to be the keynote speaker over the weekend and just to rally moms and to encourage you that this
00:08:06.200
fight is just beginning. And anyone who stands in between us and our children, we will raise a respectful
00:08:12.180
ruckus to move them out of the way. So thank you guys for all of you who are doing that. You need to look up
00:08:19.020
Moms for Liberty. Go to momsforliberty.org slash alley. Start a chapter in your area. Join the chapter
00:08:25.740
in your area. This is how you come together and share the arrows and make a difference. These moms,
00:08:31.600
I had the privilege of meeting them over the weekend. They are incredible. They are joyful warriors
00:08:36.880
fighting for the survival of America and they don't co-parent with the government. Go to
00:08:40.760
momsforliberty.org slash alley. One more thing I just wanted to touch on is this Media Matters piece
00:08:50.620
that I did a video, a YouTube live on this last week. I think it came out on Friday and Justin
00:09:01.660
Horowitz, who is, I guess, a writer for Media Matters, he tweeted that he spent hours watching the
00:09:08.900
Relatable podcast and he found that I camouflaged my fundamentalist Christian views and my anti-LGBTQ
00:09:18.940
hate with an Instagrammable aesthetic. So for those of you who watch this on YouTube because of my
00:09:25.880
Instagrammable aesthetic, did you know, according to Justin Horowitz, that you're actually just being
00:09:30.940
hypnotized by our beautiful color palette and our very trendy set? That's how I convinced you to become
00:09:41.080
a conservative because of what he called my glitzy aesthetic. So he says Stucky regularly spews
00:09:47.160
hateful misinformation about LGBTQ people on her relatable podcast hosting anti-LGBTQ guests
00:09:53.040
and pushing far right talking points. And he said,
00:09:56.940
I weaponized my Christian faith to attack nontraditional gender roles, often targeting
00:10:01.680
and spreading misinformation about LGBTQ people and those that do not adhere to her prescribed
00:10:07.700
fundamentalist lifestyle. So what he means by that is that I am a Christian. I believe things about
00:10:13.780
marriage, about gender, about sex and sexuality that Christians have believed for thousands and
00:10:19.160
thousands of years and really that the Jewish people believed before the church was even founded
00:10:25.200
over 2000 years ago. And so and really most of the world has believed regardless of their religious
00:10:31.180
beliefs about sex and gender and marriage. And so by talking about those things, by repeating the
00:10:37.600
things that the Bible has talked about again or has stated for thousands of years, that is radical
00:10:44.060
and that is fundamentalist. Now let's talk for a second about this word fundamentalist because that's
00:10:49.500
what he calls me about 5700 times in this article. That is a buzzword. The people that use it don't
00:10:57.020
actually know what that actually means. There actually is like a sect of professing Christianity
00:11:05.200
that probably could be described as fundamentalism. Like the women aren't allowed to wear pants
00:11:10.380
and they typically aren't allowed to receive an education. They're like under their father's
00:11:16.900
authority until they get married, even if that is like well into adulthood. And so there is a section
00:11:23.140
of like very legalistic Christians. I mean, they would call themselves Christians who have doctrines that
00:11:35.640
I don't ascribe to and that look nothing like my life and is completely incongruent with not only my
00:11:45.020
theology, but also how I live. And so really, this is just a way to say that if you adhere to Christianity,
00:11:54.620
if you believe the basic doctrines of Christianity, then you are an unacceptable Christian. The only kind of
00:12:01.760
Christian that Media Matters finds acceptable or that progressives find acceptable are the ones who believe
00:12:09.200
everything that your progressive secular atheist does. If you have any distinguishing beliefs whatsoever,
00:12:16.680
you are considered a fundamentalist. I remember there's this part in Screwtape Letters, and I don't
00:12:21.760
remember the exact quote, so I'm paraphrasing because I remember from the last time I read it,
00:12:27.040
that Screwtape is trying to tell his nephew, Demon, who is tempting this Christian in the Screwtape Letters
00:12:36.800
to convince the Christian that normal Christian virtue, that normal Christian theology is Puritanism
00:12:44.440
because no one wanted to be a Puritan. Puritan was seen as kind of like a fuddy-duddy, that you are
00:12:50.460
an extremist, that you're a radical, and kind of convinced his subject, this Christian human, that
00:12:57.660
following Jesus' teachings or following the Bible or pursuing Christian holiness,
00:13:04.880
sanctification for the Christian is a form of radical extreme Puritanism, and really he should
00:13:11.280
just kind of be okay with the label of Christianity without actually trying to conform himself to
00:13:16.480
Christ or without actually trying to obey God's Word. Well, that's the same thing that happens today,
00:13:23.000
except fundamentalism or fundamentalist is the new label instead of Puritan. And so they're trying to
00:13:32.240
convince people, in particular Christians, maybe wishy-washy Christians, that sure, you can be a
00:13:38.140
Christian, you can say you're a Christian, you can believe in God, but if you act out that Christianity
00:13:42.700
at all, if you believe anything the Bible says about these controversial issues, what the world says are
00:13:48.660
controversial issues, then you're a fundamentalist, and that's just too far. So that's what he tries to do
00:13:54.240
in this article. I'm very thankful, though. I had so many conservatives who were sharing the arrows with
00:13:59.500
me. And so I'm just very thankful for all of the people who defended me and who just kind of ratioed
00:14:07.140
this Justin Horowitz guy on Twitter. And I got a lot of encouragement and a lot of support, and it just
00:14:13.320
kind of allowed me to double down. I'm, you know, I'm thankful that Media Matters is spending hours and
00:14:19.740
hours watching the show and my Instagramable aesthetic. I have hope that this guy who watched
00:14:24.680
hours of Relatable, I mean, he had to have heard the gospel at some point. And so who knows how God
00:14:29.500
is going to use that seed planted in his heart. I hope that God, that his kindness leads this guy to
00:14:34.940
repentance and that, hey, Media Matters turns to Christ. Like, wouldn't that be a great about-face?
00:14:41.240
If you don't know, Media Matters is like this far-left propaganda outlet that basically just
00:14:49.860
tries to harass and target the sponsors of conservative media because, like, all communists
00:14:57.080
throughout history, like all totalitarians, they cannot allow dissent. So thank you guys so much for
00:15:03.060
your support of this show, Media Matters. Those of you who are watching this for hours hate watching
00:15:09.200
this, but also those of you who love this show, I really appreciate it. All of you who listen and
00:15:14.580
who watch, please leave a five-star review if you have not already. All right, let's get into the
00:15:19.320
actual news, news stories of the day that I want to talk about. All right, update on this terrible,
00:15:36.420
terrible story of this girl in Ohio, 10 years old, who got pregnant and then she allegedly had to
00:15:44.140
travel to Indiana where abortion law is more lax in order to obtain an abortion. I talked about this
00:15:51.280
either last week or the week before, that the media was running with this story saying this is the
00:15:57.340
consequence of overturning Roe v. Wade. This is the consequence of the Dobbs decision. This is the
00:16:01.760
consequence of what they would call draconian anti-abortion, anti-bodily autonomy law. This
00:16:08.500
10-year-old child had to travel across state lines in order to obtain an abortion. And conservatives were
00:16:16.400
raising some red flags about this. They were saying, hang on, in these articles that are being run
00:16:22.200
totally uncritically, there is no mention of the rapist. There's no mention of a criminal investigation.
00:16:27.420
Hang on. The doctor in this case would have had to be by required by law to be a reporter of the
00:16:34.300
sexual abuse. And we don't know of any criminal investigation. The Republican attorney general
00:16:38.460
of Ohio, he went on air and he said, there's not even a whisper of an investigation into this. We have
00:16:43.580
no information about this. And then you had you had Republican Republican politicians saying this is
00:16:50.820
something that's true. And I raised the red flags that Megan Fox, a journalist, had originally raised
00:16:56.220
on Twitter saying, hang on, why are we taking as fact this story that relies on a sole source,
00:17:03.500
Dr. Caitlin Bernard, who is an abortionist in Indiana, who also happens to be an abortion activist
00:17:09.440
and has been used as a source in other kinds of pro-abortion stories in liberal media without asking
00:17:16.540
some questions. And I still I still believe and I still agree with what conservatives were saying
00:17:25.620
and what I said a couple of weeks ago when this story originally came out, that this is sketchy
00:17:30.360
reporting. This is irresponsible reporting. Then the president of the United States used this story to
00:17:37.440
say, well, this is why the federal government basically has to try to allow abortionists to
00:17:43.760
circumvent the state laws because look at this terrible story of this 10 year old when we just
00:17:48.580
didn't have the facts. Even the Washington Post, their fact checkers came out and said, hang on just
00:17:54.160
a second. We don't have enough sources for this. We don't have any corroboration for this. Not only
00:17:59.080
that, but all of the people are saying, oh, she had to get an abortion in order to save her life.
00:18:03.700
Well, if that's true, the Ohio law, even though it outlaws abortion after six weeks, says there is an
00:18:09.960
exception for not just the life of the mother, but also the health of the mother. So if it were the
00:18:16.420
case that this pregnancy was threatening her health and it was threatening her life, she still would
00:18:20.760
have been able to obtain a legal abortion in Ohio. The media was not reporting that. So I still agree
00:18:26.820
with the conclusions that many conservatives were coming to that. This is irresponsible reporting that
00:18:31.180
this looks like a convenient propaganda for the left, that the timing is suspicious, that it's just not
00:18:39.720
good journalism. However, I will say that I should not have gone so far as to say that this is not
00:18:46.360
true. And I did tweet at one point. I think most of my tweets about this and even what I said on my
00:18:51.380
podcast was this probably isn't true or we don't know if this is true. We still need more information.
00:18:56.180
But I did have at least one tweet where I said this is not true. It's propaganda just like
00:19:02.240
Russiagate and just like the accusations of Kavanaugh being a gang rapist, just like the
00:19:10.500
Covington Catholic kids and Jussie Smollett. I mean, we could go on and on about the conspiracy
00:19:15.080
theories that the left and the legacy media on the left have pushed over the past few years.
00:19:20.280
And I added this story to that list. However, it does seem now that the story is actually true.
00:19:27.500
I jumped the gun there and I shouldn't have said that. And so I apologize for coming to a conclusion
00:19:32.400
that I also should not have come to. Suspicious? Yes. Shoddy reporting? Yes. Completely untrue?
00:19:39.440
Apparently not. Now, we still don't have all of the information as you're about to hear me explain.
00:19:44.160
But apparently, this is something that did happen. And I'm not sure. Let me say also,
00:19:51.420
I'm not sure that we would have all of the information that we have now about her accused
00:19:57.900
rapist if conservatives had not sounded the alarm about this on Twitter. It was conservatives. We were
00:20:04.600
the ones who are saying who raped her? Who did this? If a 10 year old is pregnant, like there is probably
00:20:10.480
some foul play here and someone probably needs to be in prison. It's very unlikely that like
00:20:14.800
her 12 year old boyfriend impregnated her. So what really happened here? So now we do have more
00:20:21.200
information. I do think thanks to conservatives trying to shine a light on this part of the story
00:20:25.300
that was not originally reported. So let me give you a timeline of events from what we know from the
00:20:31.220
reporting that we do have that has come to light over the past few days about what really happened.
00:20:35.500
So apparently, on May 12th, and I say apparently and allegedly, not because I don't believe it
00:20:41.180
necessarily, but because this guy, this accused rapist hasn't been convicted in a court of law.
00:20:46.940
He hasn't gone through due process yet. So on May 12th, a man named Gerson Fuentes allegedly
00:20:53.180
sexually assaults this 10 year old girl on June 22nd, the girl's mother, who is reportedly dating
00:21:01.340
Fuentes. So this is her boyfriend. And if it's true that he raped her daughter, unfortunately,
00:21:07.060
that is a pretty, that's a pretty regular, a pretty common occurrence that when a child is abused,
00:21:13.800
it is typically by a stepfather, someone who is not biologically related to the child,
00:21:21.960
a man that the mother brings into the home. Unfortunately, that is a pretty common statistic.
00:21:26.860
And so apparently the mother, the mother's boyfriend raped the daughter and the mother
00:21:33.900
reports this and reports the rape and the pregnancy to officials at Franklin County Children's Services
00:21:41.180
who notify law enforcement and a police report with this date is generated. So it's kind of strange
00:21:48.220
that there was a police report. There actually was reporting to law enforcement and the Republican
00:21:53.140
Attorney General said that there was no whisper of this. I guess he just didn't know that. And then
00:21:57.740
on June 30th, the girl travels to Indiana has an abortion. And then July 1st, the Indianapolis
00:22:04.580
Star story is published. July 6th, the girl identifies Fuentes as her rapist, according to the probable
00:22:10.440
cause affidavit filed by Columbus police. That's Columbus, Ohio. Columbus police to obtain a warrant for
00:22:15.920
Fuentes. July 12th, Fuentes is arrested and a cheek swab is taken to compare his DNA to the evidence
00:22:22.840
gathered from the girl's abortion. Fuentes is taken to the Columbus police station because that DNA
00:22:28.760
matched where he is interviewed and confesses to raping the girl at least twice. I mean, this is just,
00:22:35.420
it is so anger inducing. A child, a child. This is a monster. On Wednesday, July 13th,
00:22:44.660
a 27-year-old Gerson Fuentes was arraigned and was released on a $2 million bond. Progressive
00:22:51.540
judge's man with an order to stay away from the alleged victim and her family. He is scheduled
00:22:56.480
back in court on July 22nd. He is also apparently an illegal immigrant from South America. And so he
00:23:07.560
shouldn't have been here in the first place. I mean, it's always just doubly sad when an illegal
00:23:12.620
immigrant commits a crime like this because it could have been prevented by common sense immigration
00:23:19.500
law, which is something that we don't have in this country. Like, see, this is the flip side
00:23:23.620
of so-called empathetic immigration law where you just say, oh, undocumented people, they should just
00:23:29.720
be allowed to stay here. They came here for a better life. And I'm not saying that most or all illegal
00:23:35.500
immigrants are going to commit those crimes, but some are. And those crimes could have been prevented by
00:23:41.320
them not being here in the first place. We can't necessarily always preempt the crimes that are
00:23:46.900
going to be committed by citizens of the United States, but we absolutely can preempt the crimes
00:23:52.120
that are committed by people who are here illegally by deporting them and by not allowing them here,
00:23:57.560
maybe by securing our border a little bit more, which the Biden administration and very many previous
00:24:02.600
other administrations as well have failed to do. So, as I said, Ohio does have an exception in their
00:24:10.160
law for not just the life of the mother, but the physical health of the mother. Now, the question is,
00:24:17.320
did she qualify? Did she qualify for that? Could she have gotten a legal abortion with this exception
00:24:25.600
in Ohio? Here is what an article from the February 2021 issue of the American Journal of Obstetrics and
00:24:32.240
Gynecology says. The article is titled Teen Pregnancy and Risk for Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes.
00:24:37.660
Pregnant teenage girls were at a significantly higher risk of preterm delivery, hypertensive disorders of
00:24:42.440
pregnancy, postpartum hemorrhage, and severe maternal morbidity. Therefore, she probably would have
00:24:48.540
been able to obtain a legal abortion in Ohio because, again, not just the life is an exception,
00:24:54.880
but also the health. And there's a lot of latitude there that can be very liberally interpreted.
00:25:00.240
In fact, it has been liberally interpreted in many states for a very long time by doctors who
00:25:07.200
perform abortions. And so it is unclear why they traveled across state lines to Indiana to obtain
00:25:16.160
this abortion when it probably could have happened legally in Ohio. Now, it is not sure that she would
00:25:23.360
have died from this pregnancy. We are talking about a child, a very young child, 10 years old,
00:25:28.260
in my mind. I'm like, oh, my goodness, that's a baby. I just my heart breaks so much for her that
00:25:33.400
one, she was raped, that this was allowed to happen to her. And then that she went through the trauma
00:25:39.340
of having of having an abortion. And so my heart just breaks for her. But this is not it's not
00:25:47.200
necessarily clear that she would have died from carrying the child. There is a history,
00:25:53.240
unfortunately, very sadly, of young women who have already gone through puberty being able to carry
00:26:00.760
a child to term and to have that child. So maybe that is what their excuse would be, that the doctor
00:26:06.840
didn't think necessarily that this pregnancy would have harmed her health or her life. And so he didn't
00:26:12.700
believe that the exception would come into play. And so they felt like they had to travel to Indiana.
00:26:19.600
But again, this piece was not covered by the media, that actually there probably would have been a
00:26:24.500
carve out for her. Actually, she probably would have been able to obtain a legal abortion in Ohio.
00:26:29.440
That wasn't talked about at all, because the point of the reporting of this story was simply for the
00:26:34.480
media, for the left to use this little girl and her trauma as a mascot to say, see, abortion should be
00:26:41.380
legal. But it really is a manipulation tactic. It's an emotional extortion tactic, because the
00:26:47.400
people who are using this as an example for, hey, this is why we need legal abortion. If you said to
00:26:53.500
them, OK, fine, let us allow abortion in these cases when a 10 year old is raped, but let us make
00:27:00.680
it illegal for let's make elective abortion illegal. They would say, no, the people who are using this
00:27:06.720
extreme example, which is something that the left always does, they're using it just to try to drive
00:27:11.740
a wedge into your pro-life philosophy, to try to poke a hole in it, rather, so that you'll say,
00:27:18.720
oh, OK, well, maybe there should be some exceptions. Like maybe babies inside the womb aren't made in
00:27:24.740
the image of God in that case. Maybe we should put the child on the line for the crime that was
00:27:31.700
committed by the father. They want you to try to make those exceptions so that you'll just say,
00:27:35.660
OK, fine, abortion should be legal. They're not actually interested in those extreme cases and
00:27:41.380
eliminate abortion to those extreme cases at all. It's just a rhetorical tactic. It's also
00:27:47.580
interesting that this side who says, oh, yes, see, abortion is so needed. The same people who are
00:27:55.020
saying that the child in this case should have the death penalty would never say that this child
00:28:00.460
rapist should have the death penalty. And so the side that believes that they have a monopoly on
00:28:06.380
compassion, they actually believe justice in this case is giving the child the death penalty,
00:28:11.100
but not the child rapist. So call me crazy. I think it should be the other way around,
00:28:16.920
that this child rapist should 100% get the death penalty as soon as he goes through due process.
00:28:23.240
We already know that his DNA matched. I think that he should be executed. Absolutely. That would be
00:28:28.780
justice in this case. I mean, if you want to look at biblical justice, there is biblical precedent for
00:28:33.700
the idea of convicted rapists getting the death penalty. We're talking about someone who raped a
00:28:41.980
10-year-old child. So I'm sorry, but you don't get to say that you are the compassionate side. You are
00:28:48.200
the nuanced side. You are the side that really cares if you are calling for the death penalty of a
00:28:53.380
child who had nothing to do with her conception, but not the death penalty of this grown man,
00:28:59.260
this almost 30-year-old man who raped this child. Come on now. Come on. This is obviously a very
00:29:05.480
extreme, but a very sad circumstance. And we should have all the compassion in the world for everyone
00:29:10.120
who's involved. Now, I also probably think that her mother should bear some responsibility here.
00:29:16.200
She should at least be questioned. Hey, did you know that this was going on? Did you know that your
00:29:21.260
boyfriend was raping your child? I mean, there's a lot to wonder about the mother's involvement in
00:29:30.280
this. There's a lot to wonder about the doctor's involvement. How long did the doctor know that this
00:29:36.040
was going on? Did Caitlin Bernard, the doctor in Indiana who performed the abortion, did she know
00:29:42.460
what was going on? And when she spoke to these media outlets, because she ran to the media with this,
00:29:47.900
did she say, hey, this child is being raped? Will you please shine a light on this? There's a lot
00:29:53.720
of questions about why the adults in this child's life were not protecting her and were not more
00:30:00.760
concerned with her well-being. Also, now the mother is saying that it was a lie, that none of this is
00:30:08.460
true. She talked to Telemundo. Telemundo came to her apartment and the mother of this child who was
00:30:14.040
raped is saying, oh, no, none of it's true. So there are still so many questions. There is just a lot of
00:30:22.140
sketchiness when it comes to the story. And I think it's being used in a way that is not actually
00:30:31.000
drawing us to compassion or to understanding for all of the innocent lives that are involved, but is
00:30:38.080
actually just kind of being used as a mallet to try to hurt our enemies and make a political point.
00:30:48.340
And so as more comes out about this, I will try to give you more details of it. I'm glad that it is
00:30:57.300
being talked about because I think that there's a greater chance of this man being held accountable
00:31:04.480
the more we kind of shine a light on what's happening. Hopefully, I mean, he won't get the death penalty,
00:31:12.000
but hopefully he will be punished to the fullest extent of the law.
00:31:18.980
Okay, let's talk about the shooting that happened in Minneapolis, the Tekel Sundberg shooting. So I'll
00:31:35.500
give you a little bit of a timeline of what happened here. On the night of July 13th, Minneapolis police
00:31:40.320
were called to an apartment building after a woman called 911 reporting that someone was firing gunshots
00:31:45.320
into her unit. Police evacuated the building and engaged in a six-hour standoff with suspect
00:31:49.840
with suspect Tekel Sundberg before fatally shooting him. Sundberg's sister has stated that her brother
00:31:55.520
was having a mental health crisis at the time the shooting took place. Sundberg's family is requesting
00:32:01.900
that the police immediately release body camera footage to them. There was a GoFundMe set up for
00:32:06.640
Sundberg's funeral expenses. It's raised almost $20,000. That's as of yesterday. Now, mind you,
00:32:14.420
that GoFundMe says that they have a policy that they don't allow for the raising of money for
00:32:21.160
criminals for things like this. You probably heard about the story of this bodega owner in New York
00:32:28.780
that he defended himself and he defended his store against an armed criminal by stabbing him.
00:32:37.180
That bodega owner was sent to Rikers because of the progressive DA in the area. People sounded an
00:32:43.440
alarm about it. Conservatives sounded an alarm about it on Twitter. Thankfully, he was released
00:32:49.040
from Rikers, at least for now. But I mean, he was in trouble with the law. He was incarcerated
00:32:56.740
because he defended himself. People tried to raise a GoFundMe or started GoFundMe for him to raise money
00:33:02.820
for his attorney's fees and things like that and the loss of business that he has probably suffered
00:33:07.600
and GoFundMe took it down. But GoFundMe is allowing tens of thousands, tens of thousands of dollars to
00:33:13.280
be raised for this armed criminal. Arabella Foss Yarbrough and her two sons were trapped in their
00:33:20.620
apartment on the night of the 13th. That's when Sundberg was shooting into it. She is the one
00:33:27.760
who called 911. Now, thankfully, Yarbrough also has a GoFundMe that has raised almost $30,000 at this
00:33:35.420
point. But a couple of days ago, before this story was really known, she had only a fraction
00:33:40.940
of the money that Sundberg, the shooter, had for his GoFundMe. And so BLM is obviously protesting.
00:33:55.840
They're protesting the Minneapolis police. They're saying that he was an innocent man,
00:34:01.420
that he shouldn't have been shot. Ben Crump, who is an attorney, who is just a clout chaser.
00:34:07.000
He is always chasing these kinds of stories to try to make money off of them. He makes money just like
00:34:13.080
many BLM activists off of the dead bodies of black people. That's the truth. And so he tweeted this.
00:34:19.720
This is Tekel Sundberg with a picture of him. Minneapolis Police Department killed the smart,
00:34:24.140
loving and artistic 20 year old after an hours long standoff while he was experiencing a mental
00:34:28.820
health crisis. We need answers from MPD as to why Tekel's mental health crisis became a death
00:34:33.940
sentence, maybe because he was trying to murder people, maybe because he was trying to shoot
00:34:38.380
people, maybe because unfortunately, that kind of fatal justice is necessary to save the lives of the
00:34:43.980
innocent people who he was victimizing. BLM was protesting. And then the woman who was shot at,
00:34:55.000
who was trying to protect her children during this shootout, then confronts these BLM activists
00:35:02.120
and these protesters. And here's a little bit of what that looked like.
00:35:05.260
I can't get my idols because you guys are celebrating his life.
00:35:11.060
It's not okay. It's not okay. It's not okay. You're alive. Shut up.
00:35:14.480
You guys need to just let it go. Grief. It's silence. This is not okay.
00:35:21.280
This is not the time we're going to play. It wasn't. This is not the time we're going to play.
00:35:23.940
This is not the time we're going to play. It don't matter. It don't matter.
00:35:26.940
Get away. Get away. No, because you think it's okay to get my kids in the car.
00:35:32.200
My kid's in the car. My black kid is in the car. He tried to kill me in front of my kids.
00:35:40.060
He tried to kill me in front of my kids. Oh my gosh. These left-wing activists. I'm sorry. That
00:35:46.140
video made me so angry. These people are the scum of the earth. Pedro Gonzalez often says that
00:35:53.720
these liberals are the worst people anywhere. They're the worst. Anywhere you go,
00:35:59.560
these kinds of people, these kinds of activists are the worst people that you are going to meet.
00:36:04.960
I said on Twitter that caring more about criminals than victims is a feature, not a bug of social
00:36:11.400
justice. I mean, criminal justice, social justice, all the kinds of left-wing reforms
00:36:17.280
that they are talking about are always focused on the criminal. They're always focused on the
00:36:23.700
people perpetuating the violence. They are never focused on the victims. So this woman is like,
00:36:29.100
look, he was trying to kill me. And she says, he was trying to kill my black kids too. Why don't you
00:36:33.460
care about my black kids? Why don't you care about the black victims? Why do you only care
00:36:38.440
about the black man who was committing the crime? And all those people are saying, shut up. They're
00:36:43.660
saying you're alive. This like white boomer. And I only say that I don't care about race. It's just
00:36:49.840
funny how these like white saviors think that they are going to insulate them from like cancellation and
00:36:56.540
they're not going to be victims of this cultural revolution. If they go out there and protest for
00:37:02.940
things that they don't even understand. And he's like trying to calm her down. And then you see
00:37:07.540
this black lives matter activist saying, this is not the time or the place. You don't need to be here
00:37:13.940
trying to tell her to stop. There's people telling her to basically stop. She literally had a near
00:37:19.120
death experience where she is covering her children's body so that she can protect them from
00:37:24.800
bullets. And these black lives matter activists are telling her to shut up, to sit down and to go
00:37:30.220
home because they don't care about black victims. Black lives matter has never cared about the black
00:37:35.820
victims of black violence. That is the truth. They care about certain black lives. They care about
00:37:42.960
certain black lives that are killed in a particular way that helps them advance their agenda, change
00:37:49.360
policy so that policing is more lax so that they can raise more money, gain more power, buy more
00:37:57.340
mansions. This is about political power for black lives matter. This is not about black lives. If black
00:38:03.020
lives matter actually cared about black lives, then they would be incensed and outraged and talking more
00:38:09.860
about the thousands and thousands of black lives that are taken by other black lives every year.
00:38:16.200
But they don't talk about that. They say, oh, it's racist to talk about the fact that a highly
00:38:20.880
disproportionate percentage of violence in this country is perpetrated by black men, is perpetrated
00:38:28.780
by black Americans. They say, oh, you can't talk about that. You can't talk about the fact that 40% of
00:38:33.260
homicides are committed by about 8% of the population. You can't talk about the violence that's being
00:38:38.460
perpetrated in the black communities. You can't talk about the 70% fatherlessness rate in the black
00:38:43.340
communities because that's racist. Not even acknowledging the fact that the victims of those
00:38:48.300
statistics are also black. So it's actually, if you want to say it's racist, it is actually a hatred of
00:38:56.100
a particular kind of race to not talk about that. The victims, not just the perpetrators of that wildly
00:39:02.060
disproportionate violence and homicide rate in these communities are also black. Black lives matter,
00:39:08.460
don't care about that. They don't care about that. What they care about is power. What they care
00:39:13.260
about is politics. So this poor woman, this desperate woman who tried to protect her children,
00:39:18.760
who she says are black, the reason that she is being met with callousness, the reason that she is
00:39:24.520
being met with such coldness from these activists is that they don't care about these victims and they
00:39:32.240
never have. That is a feature, not a bug of social justice. That is what social justice is. It is
00:39:39.640
caring for the group that they deem arbitrarily oppressed, not caring for the people who are
00:39:43.980
actually oppressed. And I think about this with Christians too. People who buy into this idea of
00:39:49.180
white oppressors and black oppressed, therefore any kind of negative interaction that happens between
00:39:55.440
a white person and a black person is a form of oppression. But anything that happens between,
00:39:59.840
a negative interaction between a black person and a black person or a black person and a brown person
00:40:04.320
or a black person against a white person, that's not a situation of oppression or discrimination or
00:40:09.680
racism. It's such a convoluted definition of what oppression is. I always, I always think about
00:40:17.060
Christians, like, do you really think in the scenario where a black person kills another black person or
00:40:22.240
a black person kills a white person or a black person kills an Asian person or a Hispanic person kills
00:40:25.920
a white person? Do you really think in that scenario that God believes that the victim of that violence
00:40:32.120
that is perpetrated by what a critical race theorist would call an oppressed person, do you really
00:40:37.440
believe that the victim of that is the oppressor because of their skin color? Do you really think
00:40:41.420
that's how God sees it? Do you think that when someone who has a certain melanin count commits murder
00:40:46.220
that God lets them off the hook or that he's any less angry or that he's any less sad about that murder
00:40:51.200
that was committed? Because, oh, well, according to some academics, that person is on the side of
00:40:57.000
the oppressed. Like, is that really how you think justice works out? It's not. We know that according
00:41:02.620
to God's law giving to ancient Israel, that one of the characteristics that God cares most about when
00:41:10.060
it comes to the doling out of justice is impartiality, that you shall not defer to the poor
00:41:14.660
or to the great, that you're not to show favoritism to someone because he has power, because he has status,
00:41:19.780
because he has wealth, but you're also not to show favoritism to someone because they're poor,
00:41:23.860
because they're weak, because of what we might say, because they're historically marginalized or
00:41:29.380
whatever kind of buzzword you want to use. And so BLM, social justice advocates, purposely subvert
00:41:36.460
the real impartial definition of justice by insisting that we view people through this lens of oppressed
00:41:43.900
versus oppressor. That's the reason why they care about this, because in this case, the police
00:41:48.420
are always a force or an arm of the oppressive system. And the people who are on the other end
00:41:55.700
of that are always going to be seen as the oppressed, especially if they are black or brown. It doesn't
00:42:00.620
matter if he had a gun. Does it matter if he was shooting at other black kids? That is the dynamic
00:42:05.860
that they look at. And that is injustice. That is also why everywhere where BLM supported policies have
00:42:13.480
been put into place when it comes to policing. That's why everywhere that these criminal justice
00:42:18.760
policies with light sentencing and basically catch and release of criminals everywhere that those
00:42:25.000
policies have been implemented, murder and violence have soared. That's why you're hearing even the
00:42:30.920
liberal CEO of Starbucks saying, look, we've got to shut down our stores in all of these Democrat run
00:42:36.060
cities because they've abdicated their responsibility to protect our cities. And yet when the police in very
00:42:42.480
liberal Minneapolis say, OK, this is an instance where we've got to kill someone or else there's
00:42:47.580
going to be mass murder, they are indicted by left wing activists. It's insane. That is also why
00:42:56.420
no sane, compassionate person, but especially no Christian, should be supporting the agenda of these
00:43:03.120
racial, social, criminal justice, left wing activists. I'm not saying that our criminal justice system,
00:43:11.900
if that's what you want to call it, our justice system doesn't need reforms. I believe that it
00:43:17.820
does in some cases. And I think that everyone should be afforded constitutional protections of
00:43:23.880
due process. And so I'm not saying that there are no reforms that should be talked about. But so often
00:43:29.820
what you are looking at are groups that really just care about those who are perpetuating violence
00:43:37.140
and not the innocent victims of the violence. So that's what happened here. Just in case you heard
00:43:44.040
the misinformation, this is another story of racist police officers killing an unarmed black man.
00:43:49.120
There's always a flip side. There's a flip side of social justice. Read Thomas Sowell's quest for cosmic
00:43:54.120
justice. And you'll hear more about that. And you'll learn what's really behind all of that.
00:44:07.140
All right. So UPenn has nominated Leah Thomas, formerly Will Thomas, Woman of the Year. I mean,
00:44:22.880
the audacity, the audacity of our current dystopia of all of the swimmers, of all of the actual female
00:44:31.080
swimmers, at the University of Pennsylvania, UPenn decided that they were going to pick a man.
00:44:38.380
They were going to say, oh, a man should be woman of the year. Now, he has not won this award. NCAA
00:44:46.360
has to, you know, decide who is going to win. Different colleges get to nominate. But I mean,
00:44:53.400
I wouldn't be surprised if they do. And you kind of just have to laugh to keep yourself from crying,
00:44:58.660
right? Now, I'm really sad for society. I'm really sad for what this means for the future
00:45:05.860
of women and girls in sports. I am worried about privacy and safety for women and girls when it
00:45:14.000
comes to this absolute lunacy that we have now normalized and glorified. I worry about children
00:45:21.420
who are indoctrinated with this kind of stuff and then sucked into this pipeline that includes
00:45:27.320
genital mutilation. I'm worried about these chickens coming home to roost, that we are
00:45:32.760
glorifying this kind of mental illness and the vulnerability that we are placing on girls and
00:45:41.920
women. But I do believe, I do believe, and maybe I'm being a little optimistic here, but I do believe
00:45:48.880
that the harder they push this stuff, the more absurd that it gets that a man might win woman of the
00:45:54.340
year. I mean, that already happened, I think, with Rachel Levine. I think that's the name that
00:45:59.280
she goes by, who is the assistant health and human services secretary. I think she won like one or he
00:46:05.740
won woman of the year by Time magazine or USA Today or something like that. And I just think that the
00:46:11.720
more this is pushed, the more absurd this is get this gets, the more likely it is that the pendulum
00:46:17.780
swings back really hard. And I know some people are like, oh, I don't believe in the pendulum swings
00:46:24.580
back theory. And look, the pendulum is not going to swing itself. We're going to have to push it.
00:46:29.400
We're going to have to pull that pendulum back over by refusing to kowtow at all to this gender
00:46:35.380
madness by raising a respectful ruckus in our schools, in our churches, in our communities to make sure
00:46:41.920
the rights and the safety and the definition of girls and women are protected. That is going to mean
00:46:48.680
athletes putting their scholarships and putting their reputations on the line for the sake of reality.
00:46:55.840
And I understand that is much easier said than done. I understand that. And I really think it should
00:47:02.000
mean politicians, Republican politicians, being willing to stand up and say, absolutely not. Yeah, we're going
00:47:07.940
to engage in the culture wars because, I mean, the protection and the rights of women are on the line
00:47:13.240
here. And so some politicians are willing to do that. A lot of GOP representatives in Congress and
00:47:20.640
in state legislatures are not willing to do that. So it's going to take a lot of courage, a lot of
00:47:24.140
clarity from the top. But it's also going to take us here, just average, normal constituents standing
00:47:30.680
up and saying, no, absolutely not. We're not going to tolerate that. We're not going to participate
00:47:35.580
in any institution or any competition that is allowing that. And let our money speak as well.
00:47:41.880
Just an update. I have not been to Target since I did that video several months ago. And that is big
00:47:47.240
for me because I used to go to Target multiple times a week. It was just like an activity for me.
00:47:52.100
And I stopped when I did that episode about them selling chest binders for girls. And so we can't
00:48:00.600
boycott everything. We have to do what we can, but we should let our money, we should let our money
00:48:08.600
represent our values as much as we possibly can and our time, what we watch, our energy and all of that,
00:48:15.380
and certainly our activism. All right. That's all I've got for today. We've got a lot of good episodes
00:48:20.360
planned for you this week. We've got an awesome interview that you're going to hear tomorrow.
