Your liberal aunt is upset that Donald Trump said the word bloodbath in a rally in Ohio
00:00:13.020
We are going to break down the media lies on this.
00:00:20.400
That is the question that a preacher is asking from a pulpit in Washington.
00:00:25.420
Oh my goodness, we got a lot to say about that.
00:00:27.380
But first, at the top of the show, I'm going to give you some relationship advice.
00:00:32.540
So buckle up for a jam-packed episode of Relatable.
00:00:52.140
Wow, your reception of yesterday's episode has been absolutely incredible.
00:00:58.840
I mean, it seems like you guys feel like I felt when I was sitting here doing this interview
00:01:05.020
that this is one of the best conversations that I've had.
00:01:09.820
And I've seen you say that several times, or a lot of you have said that,
00:01:14.440
that this was one of your favorite episodes ever.
00:01:16.920
And that's really saying something, considering I have almost 1,000 episodes of Relatable.
00:01:36.000
You guys can write us in, you know, on YouTube, on the YouTube comments, Instagram DMs.
00:01:42.920
You can make your suggestion to us, maybe we'll put up, you know, a question box on the Relatable
00:01:49.860
with ABS Instagram account, and we'll get some ideas.
00:01:56.840
Because you're the reason that I've been here for almost 1,000 episodes all the way back
00:02:02.600
in 2018 when I was recording from home, and I was doing all the editing and everything
00:02:09.620
It's crazy how much it's grown, and I'm just so thankful for it.
00:02:13.860
We'll do that on the 1,000th episode, but send us your ideas for that.
00:02:17.940
But anyway, yesterday was an amazing episode out of all of the conversations that I've had.
00:02:24.820
Gosh, if you haven't listened to that, go listen to it.
00:02:30.060
I really cannot wait to read her book myself, and for y'all to read it too.
00:02:37.340
All right, a couple things before we get into the topics that we will discuss today.
00:02:41.800
One, another show-related, episode-related announcement.
00:02:47.060
We are going to be covering the Nickelodeon documentary sometime next week.
00:02:51.980
I say this because a lot of you have been messaging me about it, asking me to comment
00:02:58.100
But just as we've done with other assessments of different series like the Happy Shiny People
00:03:05.080
documentary, so-called documentary about the Duggars, we really have to sit down and we
00:03:11.340
have to watch it and we have to write notes and we have to pull clips.
00:03:14.640
And so it takes a long time because we want to give it a full and fair assessment and make
00:03:18.940
sure that everything is in context before we deliver it to you.
00:03:25.240
That's our homework over the weekend, to watch that and to give our comments sometime next
00:03:31.420
So we will be talking about that, I would say, probably on Tuesday.
00:03:37.840
Also, just a reminder that we've got some cute merch, AllieMerch.com.
00:03:42.500
We've got our You're Not Enough, But Jesus Is, great conversation starter.
00:03:52.580
And then our Comfort Colors t-shirts, we've got a lot of new merch coming down the pipeline
00:04:00.140
Gosh, guys, we've actually got like a lot of announcements for the Relatable audience,
00:04:04.260
like a lot of announcements coming down the pipeline in just a few weeks.
00:04:09.600
It's going to be a great, it's going to be a great year.
00:04:11.300
It's going to be a crazy year with the election, but it's going to be a great year for Related
00:04:17.380
Okay, so I wanted to, this is kind of something that I'm deciding to do on the floor.
00:04:22.580
Before we talk about the Trump bloodbath stuff, I wanted to talk about this tweet that I saw
00:04:28.460
and I posted on Instagram, I commented on it, and it seemed to resonate with a lot of you.
00:04:34.000
And it has to do with relationships as an adult, romantic relationships, dating relationships,
00:04:39.320
and when you know when to break up with someone, when a guy's lack of commitment actually means
00:04:46.760
that you should no longer be together or when there is a good reason for it.
00:04:51.520
And what I've noticed is that you guys really enjoy when I talk about relationships,
00:04:56.660
when I talk about breakups and all that stuff, and I don't consider myself an expert.
00:05:01.220
I'm just someone who has experience in this arena who, you know, I dated in high school
00:05:07.500
and college and then I met my husband and I realized that what people had always told me
00:05:14.160
is true, that when you know, you know, I thought that that was just crazy.
00:05:21.780
And then I met my husband and like immediately, immediately, I was like, oh, this is what everyone
00:05:29.820
So I've been in the relationship where I've been trying to convince myself that this person
00:05:36.780
And I have been in the relationship where I feel like I am trying to convince the other
00:05:44.580
And then I've been in the relationship, which I still am now after being married for almost
00:05:54.540
There was just, yes, this is absolutely the person who God has for me.
00:06:01.720
I've been through all the different stages of dating.
00:06:06.440
I've seen just the good, the bad, and the ugly of these romantic relationships.
00:06:10.480
And I'm really passionate about talking about them because, well, they're very formative experiences
00:06:16.660
in people's lives, especially the lives of women.
00:06:19.560
And I think that we can do a better job of dating.
00:06:25.120
We can do a better job of breaking up and being honest.
00:06:28.460
I have friends right now, beautiful, wonderful friends who would love to be married, who are
00:06:36.920
You guys who are single, you know that it is rough.
00:06:41.040
Even when you're set up by mutuals, it can be rough.
00:06:51.500
It's like those of us who have gotten married in the last 10 years feel like we got the last
00:07:02.380
It's never hopeless because if you are to be married, God has already selected the person
00:07:07.200
that you are going to marry before you are even born.
00:07:13.360
And by the way, you don't have to get married to fully glorify God.
00:07:17.780
But I saw this tweet in relation to all of that.
00:07:20.340
As I give you the context for all of it, I saw this tweet from a journalist in Italy and
00:07:27.000
it says, I have a friend who has been in a relationship for five years.
00:07:33.880
He says that he loves her, but does it feel ready to move in or commit?
00:07:40.500
Now, I will say that I am not really in the business of telling people that I do not know
00:07:49.040
to break up if I don't know all the situations, unless it's like cut and dry.
00:07:53.760
If someone's like, oh, he's abusing me, he's cheating on me, like, you know, or he's, I'm
00:07:59.600
If you're dating or if you're engaged, then yeah, I would say break up.
00:08:03.360
But there are a lot of different details and different nuances in people's relationships.
00:08:07.320
There could be different caveats, different circumstances.
00:08:12.980
But this person asked, in general, what are your thoughts about this situation?
00:08:19.040
And from the information that we have, someone who is 32 and 35, they've been dating for
00:08:27.800
She doesn't give any extenuating circumstances or reasons other than he doesn't feel ready
00:08:53.340
And there is no innocuous good reason, no justification, no valid excuse for him to not
00:09:01.640
What is really going on here is that he does not want to.
00:09:07.800
And we women, we've spent all of this time psychoanalyzing, thinking, oh, well, he does
00:09:16.500
But we just it's just because of this like thing in his past or like that we give them
00:09:22.500
all these different reasons and all these different justifications.
00:09:26.100
And maybe that is true in your particular situation.
00:09:29.740
It is usually that he simply does not want to because the phrase is true.
00:09:43.700
He will stop at nothing to pursue you, to secure the relationship, to make sure that you
00:09:50.720
If he wanted to treat you well, if he wanted to text you back, if he wanted to pursue you,
00:09:58.320
if he wanted to propose, if he wanted to do all of these things, he would.
00:10:05.840
Now, you might think that you're the exception.
00:10:14.680
At this point, I'm not saying within the first two weeks or even six months of a relationship,
00:10:19.540
but you're in your 30s, you've been dating for five years, and he will not commit.
00:10:27.380
Now, a lot of people have also pointed out that why buy the cow if you're giving the milk
00:10:36.540
At the same time, even though, of course, I believe saving sex for marriage, absolutely.
00:10:42.180
At the same time, I don't want it to seem like sex is like a pawn in this game, and that's
00:10:48.600
what you have to hold out to convince someone to love you or be with you.
00:10:53.560
Sure, that's part of it, but there's more here.
00:10:56.500
He just doesn't actually love her enough to commit to her in this particular situation.
00:11:12.260
You don't need to give him a million different excuses.
00:11:15.800
At this point in your life, as an adult who I know, you as a woman, you are ready to get
00:11:22.400
You don't need to be messing around because you are wasting.
00:11:27.440
You're wasting your most fertile years on losers.
00:11:33.300
Do not waste your most fertile years on weak men who will not commit.
00:11:40.860
And what you're going to find is that once you break up and once you get over that difficulty,
00:11:48.260
and it is difficult, and that sadness of being without him, that you will be better off.
00:11:56.380
And that one day you will look back, whether you marry someone else quickly or not, you will
00:12:12.060
But when I trusted you and I made the right decision, I now see you with clarity that
00:12:19.440
Thank you for giving me the strength to do the right thing.
00:12:26.020
I cannot promise you that God has Prince Charming waiting around the corner.
00:12:30.080
I can't promise you that you will ever be married or have kids.
00:12:32.820
I want that for you if that is what God has for you.
00:12:40.560
We don't have a promise of fulfilling our wants and desires and dreams in this life.
00:12:45.940
But I can promise you that getting out of a relationship that is wasting your time and
00:12:51.980
wasting your energy, dating a boy that needs to become a man that that is not right for
00:13:03.900
Never be in a relationship, dating engaged, where you are convincing yourself that you like
00:13:11.500
him or you are convincing him that he likes you or loves you, whatever stage that you're
00:13:16.640
there really should not be any convincing, not saying it has to be perfect, not saying
00:13:24.440
But you should not in the dating and engagement time, you should not have to convince yourself
00:13:33.980
There won't always be those exact same feelings, but that's the time where you should feel that
00:13:40.800
And there should be a time where you feel like, oh my gosh, I cannot be without this person.
00:13:51.780
And wait, of course, most of all for the godly man.
00:13:57.740
Wait for the mature man who will pursue you and who will honor you and who does want a godly
00:14:05.780
biblical marriage and is willing to lead you in that.
00:14:16.640
You're not going to find someone who is better than the guy that you're settling for.
00:14:21.480
I know that you're scared that this is your last shot.
00:14:27.460
I know that you're sad because all of your friends are getting married and you're tired
00:14:34.300
It is better to be single and sad than married and stuck.
00:14:40.660
Okay, that's my rant that I give like, I don't know, maybe once a year.
00:14:47.100
So just, you know, take what I say with a grain of salt.
00:14:52.260
But this tweet that I saw on X just reminded me of that, of how important of a message
00:15:20.800
If you don't know what I'm talking about, Donald Trump, he was in Vandalia, Ohio, a suburb
00:15:30.480
of Dayton, a few days ago, and he was giving his speeches.
00:15:37.240
Some of the things are planned, but then he'll kind of go off on a tangent.
00:15:41.660
And he was talking about what he would do in relationship with China and their manufacturing
00:15:52.220
He said that if he were elected, the Chinese cars that are being manufactured in Mexico and
00:15:57.860
then imported here would be hit with 100% tariff because, of course, he believes that
00:16:03.120
it is hurting the American car industry, which I would totally agree with.
00:16:10.400
He said, now, if I don't get elected, it's going to be a bloodbath for the whole.
00:16:23.820
If you're listening, President Xi, and you and I are friends, but he understands the
00:16:28.640
Those big monster car manufacturing plants that you're building in Mexico right now, and
00:16:35.540
you think you're going to get that, you're going to not hire Americans, and you're going
00:16:39.240
to sell the cars to us now, we're going to put a 100% tariff on every single car that
00:16:44.900
comes across the line, and you're not going to be able to sell those cars.
00:16:48.300
If I get elected, now, if I don't get elected, it's going to be a bloodbath for the whole.
00:16:59.860
OK, so it's obvious what he's saying, at least to me, that, OK, if I don't get elected
00:17:05.220
and we're not able to put our policies in place, things are going to be really bad for
00:17:09.480
It's going to be a bloodbath in the sense that the country is really going to suffer.
00:17:17.840
He's trying to make the case, which is what candidates do, that you need to elect me to
00:17:26.340
You need to elect me to bring order to this chaos and to put my policies in place to make
00:17:31.980
the changes that are going to save and protect the country.
00:17:35.640
And it just sounded like to me he was like, yeah, talking about manufacturing in China and
00:17:41.820
And he's kind of vaguely alluding to all of the other dangers at our door if Democrats
00:17:51.880
NBC News asked the Trump campaign spokeswoman Caroline Leavitt for a comment about former
00:17:57.720
president's bloodbath remark, to which he responded, Biden's policies will create an economic bloodbath
00:18:04.060
OK, so that's even more specific than I would have interpreted.
00:18:08.020
But either way, on the same page, we understand what he meant.
00:18:13.340
Maybe he did mean literally in the sense that we are seeing violence on the streets because
00:18:21.580
We are seeing an increase in violence and chaos because of the open border policy of the
00:18:28.860
And so he probably is speaking literally, but he is not saying what the media is insisting
00:18:36.680
The media, as I will as I will detail in just a second, the media is saying that he is threatening
00:18:47.360
The media is asserting that President Trump meant that if you don't elect me, all of my
00:18:52.340
followers are going to like wage some kind of civil war and shed blood in the streets,
00:19:00.980
So here's the here's Biden-Harris headquarters.
00:19:04.820
This is the official war room social media account for the Biden-Harris re-election.
00:19:13.940
It said tonight Donald Trump said there said there would be a bloodbath if he wasn't elected
00:19:18.520
and that if he lost, there would be no more elections.
00:19:24.240
And he says it's why last night Trump's own former vice president, Mike Pence, who Trump's
00:19:28.900
supporters called to hang for not overturning the election, came out against Trump.
00:19:34.360
And so they're trying to make this case here that he is threatening the country, that they
00:19:41.100
go on to say that he's threatening political violence, that he is doubling down on his threats
00:19:51.940
But that's clearly, again, not what he's saying.
00:19:56.420
He is saying it's going to be bad for the country.
00:19:59.040
He is arguing that it's basically going to be the end of any kind of representative democracy
00:20:05.040
in the United States if Biden wins again, which we can talk about as we get closer to
00:20:12.300
I happen to think that's true, that elections, free and fair elections, which are already
00:20:19.160
very vulnerable in the United States, to put it politely, I do think that those are going
00:20:29.740
And I'm not just talking about in some places, but everywhere.
00:20:32.760
And so they're trying to make it seem like he is threatening that, that he is going to take
00:20:37.160
away elections and that he is going to shed blood, which, of course, that is not what's
00:20:42.680
And now all of these media outlets are running with this.
00:20:46.060
They're shortening the clip where he just says, if I don't win, it's going to be a blood
00:20:50.880
Trump says there will be a blood bath if he loses the election.
00:20:54.260
Trump says some migrants are not people and predicts a blood bath if he if he loses.
00:21:00.760
OK, I the migrant thing, of course, is like a separate issue.
00:21:07.860
Of course, they're all made in the image of God.
00:21:09.960
But like, am I worried about Trump saying that some immigrants who are coming over here
00:21:17.600
and raping and murdering like the illegal who murdered Lake and Riley?
00:21:25.340
Am I really worried that President Trump is referring to a guy like that is not a person?
00:21:31.800
I'm much more concerned about the crimes being committed, the preventable crimes being
00:21:35.340
committed than what President Trump or President Biden is calling these people.
00:21:39.280
But of course, it is more egregious, according to The New York Times, to say something mean
00:21:44.600
to an immigrant than for an immigrant to commit a violent murder.
00:21:52.720
In Ohio campaign rally, Trump says there will be a blood bath if he loses November election.
00:21:57.600
Trump says country faces blood bath if Biden wins in November.
00:22:00.860
In PR, Trump says some migrants are not people and warned the blood bath if he loses.
00:22:06.400
Trump says there will be a blood bath and elections will end if he isn't reelected.
00:22:10.940
If I don't get elected, it's going to be a blood bath.
00:22:16.700
Trump says some undocumented immigrants are not people.
00:22:19.240
Warns U.S. will see blood bath if not reelected.
00:22:25.240
Trump warns a blood bath for auto industry and country if he loses the election.
00:22:39.540
They are probably in some ways, just to be honest, like they're probably not the brightest
00:22:44.740
But in this regard, they know what they're doing.
00:22:47.940
It's actually actively manipulative and malicious.
00:22:53.780
They know that they're taking him out of context.
00:22:59.400
And they don't care because there are no consequences.
00:23:04.540
If they can whip up enough outrage, enough hate, enough fear, if they can push this narrative
00:23:11.640
that to save democracy, you have to vote Democrat, that to be sophisticated and learned and compassionate
00:23:18.360
and empathetic, you have to vote Democrat, then it's all justified.
00:23:22.300
And they see it as contributing to the greater good, even if it's a lie.
00:23:26.660
And that is really why progressives win, because there's not any sense of honor or honesty.
00:23:32.860
There's no moral standard by which they are abiding.
00:23:38.200
As I've said before, it's much easier to win and to dominate if you're on the progressive
00:23:42.760
side versus the conservative side, because the progressive side is just trying to destroy.
00:23:52.140
Western civilization, America, the Constitution, the cis-heteronormative patriarchy, whatever.
00:24:00.160
And you really don't have to agree on that much if you're just trying to tear down.
00:24:04.620
You can all take your tool and you can just whack at the foundation, whack at the walls,
00:24:10.380
and it really doesn't matter what method you use.
00:24:13.580
It really doesn't matter if you all agree on anything.
00:24:18.340
As long as you are all equally bent on destroying what is, destroying what's good and right and
00:24:25.800
true, then you don't really have to form like a cohesive coalition.
00:24:32.540
On the right, we're trying to figure out what we're building.
00:24:35.640
And we're trying to decide what we want America to look like.
00:24:40.240
We're actually trying to build a future that is better.
00:24:43.820
And so to do that, you have to decide on the foundation.
00:24:48.220
You have to decide on what tools you want to use.
00:24:52.820
You can't really all have different ideas and come together and expect to build a sturdy
00:24:57.380
house if you don't even agree on the foundation that you are building on.
00:25:04.200
I mean, it's a good problem in one sense that I think it's the more moral side to be on.
00:25:10.000
But at the end of the day, as we are quarreling over like what foundation to use, what materials
00:25:18.240
And so that's why they lie, because it's just about destruction.
00:25:25.260
And they will gaslight you to the end and telling you that it's the right that wants
00:25:32.820
It's conservative Christians who are the Christo-fascist Christian nationalists that
00:25:39.280
just want power and to control women's bodies and are white nationalists, yada, yada, yada.
00:25:45.700
Meanwhile, they will do anything possible to gain power, including lie, cheat, and steal.
00:25:58.740
It's really like the limit does not exist to, quote, mean girls.
00:26:04.020
They really just want as much authority, as much power as possible.
00:26:08.060
And that is part of also why they are allowing so many people in.
00:26:14.540
And so they know that they can change the electorate to win elections forevermore.
00:26:20.900
But they've got to continue to lie about Donald Trump and lie about Republicans so that they
00:26:27.860
There's a lot of hypocrisy when it comes to this, because, of course, many other politicians
00:26:32.260
on both sides of the aisle have used this metaphorical language, bloodbath.
00:26:41.440
Now, some people say, oh, we don't need to point out hypocrisy.
00:26:47.460
Saying that the other side gets different treatment, that doesn't do anything.
00:26:50.800
Okay, people who say that are perpetually online.
00:26:54.960
And that might be true on X.com, that we've moved past, those of us who are online and
00:27:01.060
plugged in, we've moved past needing to just say there's hypocrisy.
00:27:05.180
But for the normies, for the mainstream, for the people who aren't plugged in every day,
00:27:10.180
they actually still are convinced by, oh, you see that Trump said this.
00:27:15.660
You think it's so awful because the media is telling you this.
00:27:18.720
Well, look at this person who said this over here and how they did not get the same reaction.
00:27:23.680
That still has the ability to wake people up and open eyes.
00:27:30.320
So The Guardian, March 7th, 2020, Biden warns against primary bloodbath as Sanders sharpens
00:27:40.680
Speaking at a political fundraiser held at a private residence in Bethesda, Maryland, Biden
00:27:45.860
said, what we can't let happen, what we can't let happen is let this primary become a negative
00:27:54.920
And then he goes on to saying, oh, we can't reelect Trump.
00:27:59.820
So, of course, he and many others have used this language in the past.
00:28:05.100
Joe Walsh, he is a commentator who has been very anti-Trump for a while, but he used to
00:28:11.540
be, I don't know, I think I would describe him as like a far-right activist commentator.
00:28:18.960
You know, he spoke out recently against Donald Trump using this word bloodbath, and people
00:28:23.800
went into his Twitter history and found that he had used that term quite often in his political
00:28:31.360
But that's the hypocrisy that we're really dealing with right now.
00:28:36.500
According to Colin Rugg, MSNBC and Politico used the word bloodbath to describe the ongoing
00:28:44.440
You'll see MSNBC bloodbath, MAGA allies slash RNC staff as Trump team takes over.
00:28:51.480
Politico, bloodbath at RNC, Trump team slashes staff at committee.
00:28:54.880
So we understand that this is used metaphorically.
00:28:59.860
And so at the same time, these same outlets like NBC and like Politico are saying, oh, my
00:29:06.160
goodness, I cannot believe I cannot believe that he is using the word bloodbath.
00:29:12.200
Joe Biden said it's clear this guy wants another January 6th.
00:29:19.060
But the American people are going to give him another resounding electoral defeat this
00:29:37.900
How respectful I am of the American people and their goodness.
00:29:42.860
But how much more do they have to see from him to understand that this isn't what our
00:29:58.800
No, our great country is about, according to Nancy Pelosi, the slaughter of unborn children.
00:30:08.100
And mutilating the genitals of minors who say that they are the opposite sex.
00:30:14.860
I think I saw a Babylon Bee headline that said Democrats clarify that they're OK with
00:30:19.520
a bloodbath if it's just from killing the unborn.
00:30:23.780
Yeah, like let's talk about a literal bloodbath, not even metaphorical, as Trump is talking about.
00:30:32.940
The bloodbath that has occurred from all of the preventable murders committed by illegal
00:30:38.860
The bloodbath in Democrat-run cities because progressive prosecutors and progressive judges
00:30:46.040
refuse to enforce the law and keep criminals in prison in the name of social justice and
00:30:54.180
The bloodbath that's happening because young people are being butchered by profit-driven surgeons in the name of gender affirmation.
00:31:09.120
Like Democrats are actually literally the party of the bloodbath.
00:31:19.040
Literally, actually, quantifiably, tangibly, provably.
00:31:25.640
So I don't want to hear it that all Trump just shouldn't have said that.
00:31:29.880
I don't even want to hear like the nuanced take from, you know, some sophisticated people on the right.
00:31:34.640
Well, you know, Democrats are bad, but Trump, he should really he really shouldn't have said that.
00:31:40.040
Look, I know Trump shouldn't say a lot of things that he says.
00:31:47.700
I don't want to hear from the party of abortion how mean and scary it is that Trump said the word bloodbath.
00:31:58.600
Joe Scarborough of MSNBC, Donald Trump's America, and he is proud of it, promised another bloodbath if he loses again.
00:32:08.280
Can I point out that the only person who died at January 6th was a woman named Ashley Babbitt, who was shot by a police officer, an unarmed woman who was shot by a police officer.
00:32:20.820
So, again, they're saying January 6th was the bloodbath.
00:32:23.840
I'm certainly not justifying any of the violence that happened there or any of the breaking of the law that happened there.
00:32:34.140
So when they say another January 6th, what are they even talking about?
00:32:39.620
So this is what we have to look forward to over the next several months.
00:32:49.620
There will be lie after lie after lie about Donald Trump, about Republicans, and it is your responsibility to ensure that you are digging into these headlines, that you are watching the videos for yourself.
00:33:04.640
I will do that for you and clarify things and bring you the truth whenever I possibly can.
00:33:10.880
But we've got to be so discerning when it comes to what the media tells us.
00:33:17.620
If something sounds too good or bad to be true, really when it comes to either side, that should sound an alarm in our minds that we really need to dig in.
00:33:40.880
OK, so Trump is hitting back at Biden and the Democrats with a new ad about Biden's border bloodbath.
00:33:49.100
I think that this is a great, great move on his on on his part, rather than apologizing, which you never should to these people because they're not good faith people.
00:34:06.020
Church teacher accused of abusing several children in Montgomery County, Maryland.
00:34:10.740
Tonight, immigration officials tell us he was never supposed to be in the United States in the first place, and he had already been deported twice.
00:34:17.820
Palm Beach County deputies arrested three undocumented immigrants in Lake Worth Beach on sexual battery charges.
00:34:23.320
According to the arrest affidavit, the three suspects, all from Guatemala, abducted a local woman along the street and threw her inside a truck.
00:34:36.020
So at the end there, if you're just listening, it says Biden's border bloodbath, which of course it is.
00:34:42.980
And I'm not even just talking about the Americans who have been needlessly and preventably murdered, raped, assaulted by illegal aliens who should never have been here in the first place.
00:34:57.280
I am also talking about the trafficking that this incentivizes.
00:35:02.680
I am talking about the rape and sexual assault that this incentivizes at the border.
00:35:08.120
I am talking about all of the chaos that has ensued in those border towns.
00:35:13.000
There is nothing good, nothing good, nothing compassionate, nothing virtuous, nothing moral about illegal immigration.
00:35:27.660
And Biden and his administration are doing everything they possibly can to make sure it is impossible to guard the border.
00:35:39.320
They are fighting all the way up to the Supreme Court to try to do that, to try to stymie any effort by the state of Texas to guard its own people and guard its own border.
00:35:49.960
You know, I just saw the Center for Immigration Studies, they released a statement.
00:35:54.480
They are right now in the middle of a case figuring out what exactly Biden is doing and how he is getting these illegal aliens into the United States.
00:36:09.020
It's also that he is actually flying on the taxpayer dime these illegal aliens from different parts of South America and Mexico into 43 airports in the United States.
00:36:25.540
And then from there, they can basically do what they want to do.
00:36:31.020
As we've talked about many times, demographics or destiny.
00:36:35.760
And also, I mean, the more people that you have counted in the census in an area, the more political power you have.
00:36:43.200
Because how many representatives an area or a state has is based on its population.
00:36:52.040
This is all part of their desire to amass lasting power and to change the country fundamentally.
00:37:00.480
To make sure that the obstacle of the most conservative group among us, which happens to be white evangelicals, is far outnumbered.
00:37:12.480
So that any political power or voting power that we have, that any conservative has, is completely outweighed by this new crop of people that don't share our values, that don't have the same beliefs that we do, don't have the same priorities as we do.
00:37:35.880
And so this bloodbath stuff, Christian nationalist propaganda, all of that, it's a part of a great distraction to try to make you think that voting Democrat is saving democracy when really it is just the opposite.
00:37:52.840
Now, I will say, because I do need to, like, bring up some criticism of Donald Trump in the same rally.
00:38:03.180
So, like, I know that there's going to be some mad YouTube comments about me criticizing him at all.
00:38:09.480
But I do have something to say about something said about Ron or something Trump said about Ron DeSantis in this same rally.
00:38:18.700
One of the people said they said, are you going to run against the president?
00:38:40.480
By the time he announced, nobody knew what the hell happened.
00:38:52.100
I mean, you need DeSantis supporters to vote for you to win.
00:38:55.900
Like, you cannot afford to lose any vote if you are going to win.
00:39:01.260
And if you're worried about election funny business, you want the victory to be so overwhelming
00:39:06.440
and so resounding that there is no question who won, right?
00:39:10.400
And so you're not going to get there by insulting the supporters that you need.
00:39:15.440
There are some DeSantis supporters who are not willing to hold their nose and vote for Trump.
00:39:26.420
You can demean and dehumanize them all you want to.
00:39:31.260
And so I know it's fun to say na-na-na-na-boo-boo on the playground of politics, but you need
00:39:43.140
And this makes me think you don't really want to win when you do things like this.
00:39:48.440
And when you make fun of him, you're making fun of them.
00:39:52.680
DeSantis was very careful about that in his campaign, to not make fun of Donald Trump
00:39:58.060
because he didn't want to condescend Donald Trump supporters and his voters.
00:40:06.400
And so when people say, hey, Donald Trump needs some self-control, this is what they're
00:40:11.820
I don't care what the media says about the bloodbath comments and all that.
00:40:16.260
This is the stuff that I'm actually worried about.
00:40:20.680
But this is the stuff that I'm worried about because you are saying to DeSantis supporters,
00:40:25.700
those who supported him in the primary, that I don't care about you and I think that you're
00:40:30.020
stupid and you are dumb to support this little loser.
00:40:40.480
I wouldn't even, honestly, I probably wouldn't even make fun of Nikki Haley.
00:40:43.980
I wouldn't make fun of any of the people that you primaryed against.
00:40:47.520
I mean, they did when DeSantis came out and supported Donald Trump after he dropped out
00:40:55.220
There was some, you know, reconciliation there a little bit.
00:41:07.100
This is the kind of egotistical behavior that actually will be an obstacle to him winning
00:41:16.780
It's really going to suck if Joe Biden wins because of that.
00:41:24.660
And by the way, like, I think that DeSantis is more conservative than Trump.
00:41:30.760
I mean, I think that he is actually doing better things than Trump did.
00:41:34.620
So you definitely don't have a reason to slam him.
00:41:43.780
Okay, so I've been seeing this clip going around.
00:41:58.320
This doesn't have anything to do with what we were talking about.
00:42:01.260
Actually, every time I say that, I can always find a connection.
00:42:07.720
The connection is self-centeredness, just a little bit, just in the last example that
00:42:15.280
And this is, I think, so emblematic of where we are, not just as a culture, but I think
00:42:23.980
We've got what I called in my book and what I refer to as meology.
00:42:28.500
Rather than theology, the study of God, we are pushing meology, which is the study and
00:42:33.980
knowledge of ourselves, self-discovery, we're told, is the path to happiness and satisfaction
00:42:41.220
And unfortunately, that has bled into our Bible studies and our understanding of scripture,
00:42:49.080
It has bled into the pulpit, especially when it comes to women, women's Bible studies, women's
00:42:57.580
That's why I wrote the book, You're Not Enough.
00:42:59.740
And that's okay, because I have been hearing from so many Christian women in particular,
00:43:04.920
as well as secular women, you're enough, you're enough, you're perfect the way you
00:43:09.380
Like, we are convinced as women that the biggest problem that we face is our insecurity about
00:43:20.020
The biggest issue that we face is that we are sinners in need of a Savior.
00:43:24.160
The biggest issue that we face is that we are dead in our sin apart from Christ.
00:43:28.320
The biggest issue that we face is that our sin gets in the way of glorifying God.
00:43:34.120
The solution to all those things, of course, is God's grace and our ability to be made alive
00:43:42.480
But it's certainly not ourselves that can save us.
00:43:48.600
We are not going to find wholeness by just loving ourselves more, contrary to what popular
00:43:54.380
culture says and popular Bible teachers even say.
00:43:56.720
But there was a preacher at Common Good Church, Washington, that's already cursed.
00:44:02.420
I already, I just hate the name of that church so much, Jermell Witherspoon.
00:44:09.300
He gave a sermon, I guess you could call it, last year, but it is just now circulating thanks
00:44:21.340
And the question that he asks in this sermon is, what if God worships me?
00:44:41.680
Now I get it, we've started to worship a very big heteronormative white Jesus that we constantly
00:44:59.380
Worship has become so God-centered that it risks the subjective colliding of our own things,
00:45:24.320
Oh my gosh, if I had pearls on, I would be clutching them so hard.
00:45:31.420
I was like, I don't even know if I want to play this blasphemy.
00:45:38.460
That is where everything has always gone wrong.
00:45:43.140
The worship of ourselves go all the way back to the garden.
00:45:47.200
That is basically how Satan tempts Adam and Eve.
00:45:50.860
Did God really say, don't you know better than God?
00:45:59.680
Don't you want to have the same wisdom, the same power, the same discernment and authority
00:46:17.160
He doesn't want you to be as powerful as him, as knowledgeable as him.
00:46:25.000
And the rest is a bloody, murderous, sinful history.
00:46:32.260
So bad that God sent his only son to die a gruesome, undeserved death on a cross on our behalf.
00:46:49.700
Nowhere in scripture do we see that he worships us.
00:46:53.780
In fact, we see that we are really, really small.
00:46:58.420
We are really, really good at messing things up.
00:47:07.520
We are really, really capable of wickedness and evil and violence.
00:47:14.360
We are really, really needy of a savior, of a guide.
00:47:19.680
And in fact, throughout scripture, we see that it's humans that long for something to worship.
00:47:32.700
Let me just read you what scripture says about God.
00:47:40.280
The God who made the world and everything in it, being Lord of heaven and earth, does not live in temples made by man, nor is he served by human hands as though he needed anything, since he himself gives to all mankind life and breath and everything.
00:47:56.080
And he made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined allotted periods and the boundaries of their dwelling place.
00:48:11.980
The creation that he made with his voice, through his power, was for his own glory and for his own good pleasure.
00:48:20.540
And he created man in his image to need God and to worship God.
00:48:31.180
He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation.
00:48:34.260
For by him all things were created in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities, all things were created through him and for him.
00:48:44.820
And he is before all things and in him all things hold together.
00:48:51.080
He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in everything he might be preeminent.
00:48:55.640
For in him all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven, making peace by the blood of his cross.
00:49:08.460
And you, and you, here's what we are, not things to be worshipped, but you who once were alienated and hostile in mind, doing evil deeds.
00:49:22.160
He has now reconciled in his body of flesh by his death in order to present you holy and blameless and above reproach before him.
00:49:29.740
If indeed you continue in the faith, stable and steadfast, not shifting from the hope of the gospel that you have heard, which has been proclaimed in all creation under heaven, and of which I, Paul, became a minister.
00:50:01.020
We are, because of God's grace, the objects of his love so mercifully and miraculously and wonderfully.
00:50:16.740
God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and in truth.
00:50:23.200
Worshiping God is so important that God gives so many specifications in his law giving to Israel for how they must worship him, how they must study him, how they must obey him and come to know him.
00:50:37.120
The Psalms are filled with worship of the Lord.
00:50:41.820
All the earth worships you, Lord, and sings praises to you.
00:50:50.560
All the nations you have made shall come and worship before you, O Lord, and shall glorify your name.
00:51:06.060
We are to worship God never the other way around.
00:51:09.380
You know who really, really wanted to be worshipped?
00:51:17.000
What happened to Lucifer when he was jealous of God, when he wanted the power and the glory and the light to be all his?
00:51:28.000
He has some power now as the prince of the power of the air, as Ephesians 2 tells us.
00:51:33.080
But it's not going to end well for him, nor will it end well for any worshipper of the God of self.
00:51:43.040
You can worship yourself here on earth, but your end is hell.
00:51:46.720
What good is it to win the whole world, to gain the world, but to lose your soul?
00:51:54.780
My goodness, the just absolute blasphemy coming from the pulpit these days.
00:52:02.200
We desperately need a revival and an awakening.
00:52:21.000
We've got lots of good episodes coming down the pipeline.
00:52:23.060
Like I said, next Tuesday, I think that's probably when we're going to be analyzing Nickelodeon.
00:52:28.760
Something could happen over the next few days that we have to talk about on Tuesday.
00:52:36.240
You would think that I would know that, but, you know, you just don't know.
00:52:38.880
We're planning things behind the scenes, trying to decide what's best.
00:52:41.760
But I think that's going to be my conversation with Mike Rowe, which was super, super encouraging.
00:52:48.480
If you've got any feedback for us, if you've got any suggestions, please feel free to send
00:52:54.680
I always say that you guys are my ultimate executive producers.
00:52:57.880
What you guys want me to talk about, if there's enough of you that want to talk about something,
00:53:04.000
And we do our homework and make sure that we try to bring you the best analysis possible.
00:53:07.480
So thank you for being an awesome, relatable family.
00:53:14.440
One last thing I do want to tell you about, and that is something for my fellow Blaze TV
00:53:22.740
Okay, so last year he had this amazing event, and it was called the Fearless Army Roll Call.
00:53:28.280
And it was a men's event, and men got to come hear speakers, be encouraged, and then also
00:53:37.940
And it was such a success because men are desperate for this kind of camaraderie.
00:53:44.560
They want this encouragement, and they will get it at Fearless Roll Call event.
00:53:54.920
Jason has partnered with country music star John Rich for Roll Call 2.0 June 1st in Nashville.
00:54:01.860
It's sponsored by a lot of amazing sponsors, Preborn, for example.
00:54:06.680
There's going to be great music, food, fellowship, be transformed by biblically-inspired messages.
00:54:14.000
Go to fearlessarmyrollcall.com to reserve your spot.
00:54:18.860
All right, that's all we've got for you today, relatable family.
