A gay couple adopted two children from a Christian adoption agency, and they ended up subjecting them to sexual molestation of all kinds by other pedophiles. This is a story no one wants to talk about, but it's a story that needs to be talked about.
00:02:03.600And, you know, we're talking about this today for a very simple reason.
00:02:08.080And, you know, there's been a lot of hubbub in, you know, this conservative media sphere about all kinds of stuff going on, drama, this kind of thing.
00:02:17.160And I said on Twitter, you know, I can't believe that this story is not getting anywhere near as much coverage as it deserves while everyone is talking about whoever's, you know, drama about whatever contracts they're signing, whatever.
00:02:29.400And then I realized, wait, I'm part of the sphere.
00:02:32.280And so if I'm not talking about it, then I'm kind of avoiding the subject, too, which I think it's too important to avoid.
00:02:39.540So that's why we're going to be talking about today.
00:02:41.880So for those who are unfamiliar, the story we're going to be talking about today, and we're going to we're going to touch on a couple.
00:02:50.680But the first story we're going to be talking about today is the story about a couple, a gay couple who ended up adopting two children from a adoption agency from a Christian adoption agency, which we'll be getting into here in a moment.
00:03:07.900And they ended up that couple ended up adopting these two boys who were already the children, biological children of like a heroin addict, had a very terrible home life when they were young.
00:03:19.840And once they adopted these boys, they ended up subjecting them to sexual molestation of many different types.
00:03:26.740Unfortunately, we'll have to get into some of that, as well as basically pimping these boys out to other pedophiles that they were in contact with through various things like gay dating apps and also making pornography involving these these young people.
00:03:45.560Now, like I said, really horrible, terrible stuff to talk about, very difficult.
00:03:51.980So bear with us because we're working with YouTube.
00:03:54.320We're working with all the all the sense group as well.
00:03:56.700But we're also kind of just working with the difficulty of of the of the topic.
00:04:01.940We'll get into some of the details, but I don't want this to just turn into some slog, like some horrific shock slog about kind of what happened here.
00:04:09.720I want it to also, you know, be about the reactions to this and kind of what it means and how this all ties together.
00:04:17.740So I'm going to go ahead and put the thread on the screen here real quick for people who don't know me.
00:04:26.940I believe is the way that it's pronounced is the person who did the reporting here.
00:04:33.660She is a reporter with Town Hall, and I want to start out by just saying how much how much she deserves credit for this, because this is very difficult.
00:04:47.280This is very difficult for her to put together.
00:04:49.840This is something that I'm sure no one wanted wants to do reporting on in the first place.
00:04:54.600This is incredibly difficult topic to report on.
00:04:57.340But in addition to the difficulty of reporting on it, this is what no one wants to hear.
00:05:04.680No one wants when everyone wants to sweep this under the rug.
00:05:09.040And this is especially true on, you know, kind of with the social media brigading.
00:05:14.500She's already received lots of hate mail accusing her of all kinds of hate and homophobia and whatever, because she was simply willing to do basic reporting on the topic.
00:05:25.060And that's, I think, something we're going to hit really big today, because this did not need to happen, as we can as we'll see as we go along with this story.
00:05:40.880And these children were put in very vulnerable situations.
00:05:43.900And really, the only answer is that this happened because of kind of the identities of those involved, which I think we'll kind of get into here.
00:05:56.540So starting off here, she kind of reveals that these two children, who are now 9-11, were originally adopted by these two men who were gay activists.
00:06:11.340They were not just, you know, two guys kind of minding their own business.
00:06:15.140They were very active in, you know, kind of in pushing this kind of thing that you'll see in social media posts.
00:06:24.560The gentleman talked about their support for BLM, their voting records, you know, talking, you know, their house is filled with all these different pride, you know, things that, you know, they were very big on making sure everyone was aware about how active they were in kind of political movements.
00:06:40.780And they are accused of sodomizing these children.
00:06:44.660They're accused of distributing pornography about them.
00:06:47.540They're accused of trafficking these children to multiple people that they were in contact with.
00:06:54.520What makes this worse is that they were adopted in 2018.
00:06:59.660So this is nearly, this is what, now four plus years ago.
00:07:03.820And that means that they were even younger when this had all started.
00:07:07.280And a few reports later on in the thread that many of the family members knew or had the suspicion that these two individuals preyed on these children for their vulnerable state because their parents were heroin addicts.
00:07:19.860And it does speak, I think, a lot to the failure, I mean, just the failure of the law in one instance, but secondly, how far the law has gone to eliminate freedom of association in this respect.
00:07:35.620Because if a Christian agency for adoption for children with special needs is that terrified in this respect because of their political and their sexual orientation,
00:07:47.900then, you know, I'm sure that that agency didn't want to have another Colorado Baker situation or worse be sued under some sort of Civil Rights Act legislation.
00:07:56.660But it does indicate that this is how far the mechanism of protected status and media flare-ups can be.
00:08:03.660Because it doesn't matter if there's a trial by jury, you are tried and usually executed in the court of public opinion.
00:08:09.800And nothing screams execution like being, wanting to stand up for your faith and to acknowledge that some groups do have propensities for things.
00:08:19.920And we can see here specifically that this should have never happened.
00:08:23.960Because like you said, you know, there were warning signs well in advance of this adoption prior to the adoption.
00:08:32.380According to Mia's reporting here, one of the adoptive parents, Zachary, was accused of luring a 14-year-old boy to his house and was also in the same jurisdiction accused of child rape.
00:08:49.640And so this guy has already received these accusations previously, which should have been immediately disqualifying.
00:08:57.160Or at the very least, it should have been an insane warning flag, especially again for an adoption agency that is, you know, supposed to be Christian in nature.
00:09:08.280And more importantly here is putting children up for adoption who are even more vulnerable due to their status.
00:09:16.180One of the reasons that this charity was probably very in need of adoptive parents is that they were specifically doing the work of helping children who were either disabled in some way or had circumstances that made them much harder to adopt.
00:09:35.360For instance, children who are much older are generally difficult to adopt the parents or children that cannot be separated because they have siblings that they are familiar with and can't be separated from are, again, very difficult to adopt.
00:09:51.100And so this charity specifically takes on the role of adopting children who are kind of in this very difficult group, either this at-risk group or this difficult group for adoption.
00:10:03.140And so they're probably, you know, having a much harder time in general, which again, very likely is one of the reasons that this couple decided to target that charity for adoption, knowing that they were much more desperate for kind of parents and would probably be more lax in their standards.
00:10:22.440But as we can see, during this 2011 case that this gentleman, or I shouldn't say gentleman, this absolute piece of garbage was accused, the case was closed without much investigation into it.
00:10:38.900They dropped pretty much everything, and apparently now that Mia has attempted to get public records on the type of investigation done into these prior allegations, the records request was rejected because the sheriff's department said the case is back open again, and that would jeopardize.
00:11:01.320Yes, yes, amazingly convenient that this incredible lapse of investigation is suddenly unable, you can't examine it, you can't get any records of it, all of a sudden it's shut down because we got to reopen this case, so there might be some new leads.
00:11:16.900Like, yeah, I think you could probably say there's a high possibility that there was a lot of validity, you know, to the accusations made now that you have additional information.
00:11:28.200So, you know, to be clear, these are people that were incredibly suspect, they're incredibly suspect, and, you know, already had backgrounds that should have sent up lots of red flags, should have already disqualified the possibility of this, but it seems like they were ignored.
00:11:52.240And, of course, the problem is, we can speculate, but no one knows for sure why, right?
00:11:58.540Like, no one, they don't come out and say it, of course, the sheriffs probably don't have it written down somewhere.
00:12:03.100We're not investigating this because of the nature of the people involved.
00:12:06.200But when you have the kind of bias that we have in our society and the kind of acceptance or, you know, willful ability, willful actions to cover up a lot of very unsavory details, then choices are made in who and how you prosecute and who and how you investigate when they kind of have suspicious backgrounds.
00:12:28.640And it's very clear a thorough investigation was not done, or at least not a thorough enough investigation was done of these guys in this situation.
00:12:37.100Yeah, and it does sort of beg on the question, if the investigation wasn't thorough, if there was a previous one done in 2011, what is the relationship between the investigation and the authorities and these two individuals themselves?
00:12:52.360It does have, it almost reminds me of Jeffrey Epstein, but a much smaller vibes in regards to agencies not wanting to investigate or being part of it, and what do they have a relationship to the police with?
00:13:02.900Again, this remains unknown, but I think to us, it illustrates that, you know, it's good that they're, you know, potentially receiving nine life sentences, but, you know, I'm, I'm one that should be investing in millstone futures.
00:13:14.580But, again, this sort of politicking, like we see here on screen, I think indicates that once something becomes this normalized and pervasive, that means that the uglier side and the inconvenient truths get swept under the rug for the sake of political convenience.
00:13:29.920You know, a lot of people say that the left can't meme, well, left-wing memes exist all the time, born this way, love is love, or, you know, it's just two consenting adults and, or, you know, trans women or women and things like that.
00:13:43.760It doesn't have to be a nice little internet picture JPEG that you can share on Twitter.
00:13:47.980These things are mimetically enforced in law through ideology, and, and doing so can change the culture in the same way that, you know, most people still have that biological reaction when they see two men kissing.
00:13:59.420And then what's the response by elites as to, well, you know, maybe if we find a way to alter one's neurochemistry, we can change these things in the same way with regards to religion and other aspects of human psychology.
00:14:10.260And it does illustrate that this kind of stuff with acceptance means that this is probably one case out of untold hundreds, if not more, that we aren't aware of.
00:14:20.000Yeah, you, you really have to wonder how much of this does go unreported, right?
00:14:24.300With, with, with Mia getting the kind of reaction that she's gotten from her reporting here, which again, is just factual reporting.
00:14:31.940There's, there's no implications throughout her, her work here.
00:14:36.800This is, this is simply strict reporting, reporting that other people would in general be completely unwilling to do.
00:14:44.120And, you know, she's already getting the reaction she's getting.
00:14:46.900So how much does that incentivize people not to do this?
00:14:49.440I mean, obviously the media is already incentivized not to report on these cases.
00:14:53.480They don't want these cases to exist and they certainly don't want them to be publicized.
00:14:57.260Again, like I said, even the conservative media, you know, this got reported on, I'm not saying it didn't get reported on, but, but the outrage of some, some horrific crime like this, like, like truly unspeakably horrific crime seems a lot lower than things that are very inconsequential.
00:15:13.660And, you know, part of it again, is just due to the very difficult nature of this, no one wants to stare this in the face.
00:15:19.140I don't, I don't want to, but, but the other part of it is obviously the incredible social pressure from, you know, corporations, from media, from universities, from social media, from everything, anything you interact with.
00:15:33.600If you're a person who is making this stuff known, if you're a reporter in this case, you know, I have a lot of bad things to say about journalists, but all credit in this case, this is actually courageous journalism.
00:15:45.520This is what it, this is really pushing back against the, the powerful, this is truly speaking truth to power, because let's be very clear, these people are powerful and they know it.
00:15:58.800And then they don't, and they want to make sure that no one else is allowed to, to share what's happening here.
00:16:04.140And yeah, no, Mia did a fantastic job in reporting this and the flack that she is getting indicates that she is very much on topic.
00:16:12.480And you're right that there were some conservative media outlets that covered it.
00:16:16.340I know that the blaze has covered it, the town hall, the post-millennial, the areas in which Mia works in.
00:16:21.400And I know that Matt Walsh covered it and had gotten some pushback from other sides of other members of sort of what we would call conservatism incorporated.
00:16:29.920You know, I know that Brad Palumbo had pushed back and I guess took it personally because, you know, he had said that he wouldn't want a male babysitter or anything similar to this situation from happening to his own children, which is a perfectly reasonable response.
00:16:42.580And what had taken place is the simple fact that even so-called conservatives or those that want to appeal to a social tradition have just as much been infected with sort of the, as Elon Musk would call it, the woke mind virus that is anathema to our civilization.
00:16:56.100And, you know, I remember, you know, five, six years ago around when Trump was running for president that we had individuals, you know, getting so excited about, see, we have our own sort of conservative, you know, gaze that we can rely on and support on.
00:17:09.860And in turn, it means that we ourselves, right, saying conservatism Inc. would have to face the ugly hate facts when they rear themselves and the egg is now on everyone's faces.
00:17:19.280But at least that there are still some on the right that are willing to report this monstrosity and this evil.
00:17:23.960And it only does beg the further question, well, now what?
00:17:26.960Because this only unearths the uncomfortable questions and accusations and truths that were just being faced, you know, years ago.
00:17:34.500I mean, when Harry Hay was walking in pride parades and said, Nambla walks with me, it's almost as if we're revisiting the same controversies from 40 years ago.
00:17:43.140Well, and like you said, the amazing thing is how much of this was about tone policing, right?
00:17:50.100You shouldn't be focused on the failures here of the social system.
00:17:55.240You shouldn't be focused on the failures of law enforcement or the ability of these organizations to vet this stuff.
00:18:01.980You shouldn't be outraged that this was allowed to continue for years and years or, you know, whatever it is.
00:18:09.380The most important thing is to watch your tone when you discuss it.
00:18:13.120And that's kind of the reaction you're talking about with people to guys like Matt Walsh when they were, you know, voicing justifiable outrage to what has happened here.
00:18:26.340That is the focus of what people want to talk about is only the way in which you can present this, only the way in which you can talk about it, only the tone with which you can address it, not the fact that this happened.
00:18:39.380Not that these children are victims, not that they are probably not alone.
00:18:44.040And that we do not have the ability to discuss and investigate and put barriers and create safety for children to keep them from this kind of predation.
00:18:59.920I mean, it echoes the same thing that had happened in Rotherham in the UK where you had enforcement officials not wanting to investigate upon it, knowing the political pushback that they would get from it, both from the ethnic group in question, but also from their own authorities, not wanting to be called or labeled racist or, you know, xenophobic or anything like that.
00:19:20.940And I'm sure the same thing probably played in the mind of some cops thinking to themselves as this $48,000 a year job working in the police department somewhere in Georgia is really worth losing my entire livelihood of being called a bigot or a homophobe.
00:19:34.460And I think that the same thing is we're going to see happen play out as we have with the media, that if we report uncomfortable subjects and we, you know, state blatantly obvious things with that have statistical propensity to happen, then we're going to face the same kind of consequences over and over again.
00:19:50.940Which is that, well, how dare you report on this, you know, you should really watch your tone, you know, not everybody is like this, you know, that's that preemptive sort of CYA that we're seeing out of a lot of officials right now wanting to defend their own political positions, and try to hide skeletons in their own closet, which is even more demonstrable of how bad things really are besides this case, because as we talked about earlier, if, if this hasn't been reported for years, then it makes you wonder where else is this happening across the country.
00:20:17.420Yeah, and you're right to point out that this is a wider epidemic across many different uncomfortable truths, like you talked about with Rotherham and in the UK, and you know, I just ended up talking with I was at a barbecue, and there's a guy there who's who's a, you know, police officer in a major city that everybody would, you know, recognize. And he said, you know, when we go to certain neighborhoods, we just know that we don't get out of the car. You know, we go directly to the house that we've been called to,
00:20:46.960and then we go directly back out of the neighborhood, and we don't interact with anybody, we don't look for anything, we don't have to, what he's saying is basically, police know better than to police certain communities, because if they do, that's the end of their career.
00:20:59.960And so we avoid it, we go exactly where we have to go, and then we get out, and then we let let the community do whatever that's going to happen there. We refuse to police it, because it's too dangerous. You get in, you get out, you get your pension, but that's the end of the day.
00:21:15.080And when that's the approach, and again, I understand where these guys are coming from, you know, there's, there's no incentive for them, if they do their job, if they if they save people, if they do what they're supposed to be doing, it'll destroy their lives, you know, they'll, they'll not just end up losing their job, they'll end up in jail, for for policing people who, you know, have special protection.
00:21:37.080And so, you know, people ask me all the time when these videos of, you know, these, these drag shows where trans strippers expose themselves to children who are clearly underage, you know, eight, nine years old, and people say, why aren't the police there? Why isn't no one getting arrested? This is illegal, this is actively legal. And the answer is, because nothing is illegal, if the government is protecting the action, and the government is clearly protecting the action, the police officers know that certain groups are untouchable, they know that what's
00:22:07.080happening is basically a state sanctioned religious ritual. And they say, we're not getting involved, it's not worth my job, it's not worth my career, I'm not going to be one guy who saved the kid from the situation. I'm going to be the guy who's immediately, you know, destroyed in public loses his job, possibly ends up in jail, has a massive lawsuit, because I went against somebody that the state is implicitly protecting, and if they're not explicitly putting that restriction into law. And so yeah, I think that all of this
00:22:37.080both in journalism, both in journalism, law enforcement, everything else involved in this, this cross section of power and taboo and not being able to tell the truth and about certain situations means that people end up getting hurt, that kids end up getting hurt. And we can see this, the devastating effects right here.
00:22:55.780What's better than a well-marbled ribeye sizzling on the barbecue? A well-marbled ribeye sizzling on the barbecue that was carefully selected by an Instacart shopper and delivered to your door. A well-marbled ribeye you ordered without even leaving the kiddie pool. Whatever groceries your summer calls for, Instacart has you covered. Download the Instacart app and enjoy $0 delivery fees on your first three orders. Service fees, exclusions, and terms apply. Instacart. Groceries that over-deliver.
00:23:26.300Yeah, absolutely. And I remember just a few years ago, the left was all very upset over the key buzzword I remember at the time was stochastic terrorism. The idea that our words are violence and the public demonization of a person or group could lead to violence and all sorts of other terrible acts, which is why they say that, ironically, they live in the contradiction of silence as violence, because you have to speak up to save lives.
00:23:52.120And in this instance, really, all that we're seeing is state-sponsored stochastic terrorism. One side of this country has been thoroughly demonized, both based on its religion, its race, its heterosexuality.
00:24:03.520And in turn, we're going to see a public and promoted humiliation ritual upon that population. And some people are willing to buy into it and go for it. It reminds me very much of a Soviet-era 1978 essay called The Power of Powerlessness,
00:24:19.200where even if someone disagrees, a grocer will put up the sign by the cashier that says, you know, workers of the world unite, regardless of whether or not they believe in it.
00:24:30.620But it's a subliminal message that eventually people will buy into. And it's the same reason why it's demoralizing as videos from Libs of TikTok are. It illustrates on a daily basis that these sort of things are no longer just subliminal.
00:24:42.820They are very public. They are promoted. They are sponsored. And at the end of the day, they are coming after children, and especially your children, if you are a parent.
00:24:51.600And this is the thing that we're going to have to be dealing with for the considerable future, because law enforcement on every level, for the side of our few localities, is infected with this.
00:25:01.600And because they have to know that they have to play by the social game, because no one does want to lose their job. No one wants to lose their livelihood.
00:25:07.980No one wants to end up like that firefighter in Virginia who lost his job because he donated to Kyle Rittenhouse's legal defense, for example.
00:25:14.760This is where we're at in the country. Not only are we seeing a clearly delineated political speciation, but we are watching something that is the anathema to civilization, progressivism, play out right before here, and people are paralyzed in the face of state power, specifically the federal government, to do anything.
00:25:32.540Yeah, that's absolutely the case. Again, you can't even escape it when you look at the guy who's the head of Firefox, right?
00:25:41.640Like, it doesn't matter how high you climb on the ladder. Did you donate to Prop 8 at one point? Did someone know that at some point you believed in a traditional definition of marriage?
00:25:51.660Well, then even from the very heights of power, you can be expelled. You know, Papa John thrown out of his own country. The guy is Colonel Sanders for that brand, right?
00:26:00.840His face was on the box. But, you know, one misstep, you know, and so there's no insulation from this. There is no, oh, just go do your own thing, you know, be left alone.
00:26:12.420You know, if you can just separate yourself out enough, you'll avoid this. No, it's everywhere.
00:26:18.880But just one more detail here before we move on, because I don't want to spend the entire show on this. Again, it is just incredibly dark, and the story needs to be said.
00:26:27.720It needs to be acknowledged. People need to understand what's going on. But I don't want to turn this into just a droll, you know, just terror porn of it going through and looking at how horrific it is.
00:26:40.680I don't want that to be the case. So we will move on here.
00:26:43.700But one thing that happened, of course, was that these young men were trafficked. It's not just the brutal violence that was done to them by these adopted fathers, but it's also that they were shopped out specifically through gay dating apps like Grindr, where they made contact with other men that they wanted to engage with.
00:27:08.320And they offered these adopted sons as kind of bonuses for what they were doing.
00:27:14.020You can see, you know, some of the context here. You know, you can, you can, it's just, I don't even know what to say, you know.
00:27:26.040Would be exactly right. Just like how you asked me to come on. Would you like to try and not FedPost or say anything spicy this week?
00:27:33.200Yeah, that's really all there. How close? Yeah, no, it's like, like I said, I'm bearish on millstone futures.
00:27:41.600That seems like a burgeoning industry, one with a lot of promise investors, investors probably winning big.
00:27:48.620You know, but yeah, no, just, just horrific. But okay, so enough of that, as bad as that is.
00:27:56.900So the other story I wanted to hit on that is far, far fluffier, it's still serious in a sense, but nowhere near as dark here is, of course, the context of this hockey player.
00:28:12.220So there's a hockey player, um, last week, uh, who refused to wear, um, the, uh, pride, uh, the pride flag, uh, jersey that his Philadelphia fires team, uh, was requiring of him.
00:28:28.300Um, uh, it's, uh, Ivan, um, I'm not sure exactly how to say that.
00:28:33.480Prover of, sorry, if I ever got that wrong.
00:28:36.380Um, but, uh, Philadelphia flyers guy, and he just says, comes out and, you know, he, he doesn't say anything controversial at all.
00:28:43.960Of course, very simple. Um, you know, uh, he, he even goes to the, to the effort of saying, I respect everybody.
00:28:51.300I respect everybody's choices, but I'm just going to stay true to my religion.
00:28:55.180And, um, and again, incredible props to this guy. I don't know anything about him. Uh, I'm not, I'm not a big hockey guy.
00:29:02.580Um, but I mean, that, that just takes courage. It takes a bunch of courage at this point.
00:29:07.780A lot of people will play this stuff off and be like, ah, he makes a lot of money, no big deal, whatever.
00:29:12.240No, it's a huge deal. Um, and, and, uh, him, him putting himself out that way, um, matters.
00:29:18.740Uh, and this of course created a massive backlash.
00:29:22.060We had, uh, ridiculous, uh, sports commentators. And again, remember, this is the NHL guys.
00:29:27.580Okay. Like this is a pretty burly, uh, guys sport, right? Like this is, this is, uh, for guys who,
00:29:35.660you know, are, are, uh, you know, huge, who, who drink a lot, a lot of beer, you know, this is not, um,
00:29:42.200this is not a dainty sport. Um, the, these people are not the, the average watcher of the NHL is,
00:29:50.720is probably not super progressive, but of course the commentariat is because that's how it works.
00:29:56.100That's how all of this works. All of your elites, all of your people trained in colleges,
00:30:00.680everyone who imbibed in the progressive, uh, ideology to gain their status in the first place.
00:30:06.220That's their true allegiance. They don't really care about hockey. They don't really care about
00:30:09.880NASCAR. They don't really care about whatever your thing is. What they care about is their
00:30:14.300political religion. Uh, and the first thing they did was just viciously attack this guy,
00:30:19.460like literally just comically dystopian stuff. Like one guy was saying, uh, oh, if he really
00:30:25.280respected everyone, he would be forced to wear it. Like he, he, he, of course he would like
00:30:29.940because acceptance tolerance means celebration, right? Remember, remember that transition?
00:30:35.360Remember when it, it didn't, wasn't supposed to matter to you. It wasn't supposed to, oh,
00:30:38.640how does this affect your marriage? Oh, you know, they just want to be left alone.
00:30:43.040And it went from the privacy of their own bedrooms to, it has to be publicly in your face and in
00:30:48.000your schoolhouse, uh, very quickly. And not just, and not just that, but you will be required to
00:30:53.640perform the ritual, right? It's not, it's not even just that has to be everywhere all the time.
00:30:59.080It's not even that it has to infiltrate every TV show and every movie and every sport.
00:31:04.480And it's not just that it's that you will be made to dance in front of the camera.
00:31:10.560What's wrong, comrade? Are you not clapping? Do you not support the revolution? You don't want to
00:31:15.200be the last one clapping for the revolution, comrade. Like that's the kind of stuff that
00:31:19.520we're getting for the, to the point where this commentator out here went and said, basically,
00:31:23.360this guy should be deported out of the country so he can go die fighting in the Ukrainian war.
00:31:28.240Like that, that's, that was how he responded to the fact that this guy was insufficiently
00:31:33.120loyal to the state religion. He had committed heresy, so he should be expelled and returned
00:31:37.520to a state so that he can, he can die in a trench war somewhere.
00:31:40.560You know, I do enjoy how the rhetoric from the George W. Bush years from neoconservatives went
00:31:46.400from, well, you know, if you don't like it, you know, you can always go somewhere else or,
00:31:49.440you know, you can go fight for Saddam or something like that. And we sort of returned to our Trotskyist
00:31:54.480roots in regards to revolutionary idealism. And now we can go back to Russia and go fight in a trench
00:32:00.320or die in a hole somewhere because you refuse to submit yourself to big homo and all of its,
00:32:05.120you know, auspices and humiliation rituals. But I have to give Ivan all the credit in the world for
00:32:10.160simply saying no. And there needs to be more of that because no is still an incredibly powerful
00:32:14.720word because we're seeing this reaction and people calling for his head. I mean,
00:32:19.360I know he's received death threats from his beliefs is indicative of the fact that, you know,
00:32:25.440you do have to follow the lead of somebody. And I think Ivan's is good enough for anyone to take
00:32:29.680the lead on in this regard. I wouldn't want to wear such a jersey. I wouldn't want to prostrate
00:32:33.840myself before a pride flag, which is a complete aberration and total co-opting of God's promise not
00:32:39.920to flood the world again. But here we are. And instead, what we are being flooded with is
00:32:44.720indoctrination and public humiliation in every which way in the West, especially here in the
00:32:49.040United States. And it's frustrating to see because this is not acceptable behavior. And it's something
00:32:55.120that we would have found disgusting and wanted out of, you know, public and private society for
00:32:59.440very valid reasons, as we just saw in the first story. But where are we at now? Well, we are now in a
00:33:04.160position wherein these kinds of groups, this kind of behavior, this kind of identity is celebrated,
00:33:09.120opened, and we want you to be that. We want you to, you know, deviate from the norm to where even
00:33:13.760Politico just a few months ago said, and by 2030, you know, the largest growing voting block in the
00:33:19.280United States will be the LGBTQ plus voting block at 30% of all eligible voters, according to their
00:33:25.280projections. You know, for a population that was statistically almost insignificant,
00:33:30.560here they are now growing at speeds unseen before. And unlike the religion of, you know,
00:33:35.760be fruitful and multiply, they have to take what already exists and corrupt it in order for things
00:33:40.400to go their way. You know, there are some people who, you know, were canceled by simply admitting
00:33:46.080the fact that a large propensity of people that become that way is due to abuse. And by simply,
00:33:50.720again, stating inconvenient facts or hate facts, as they like to say, this is where we're at. Those
00:33:56.720things get swept under the rug. But once you accept them, you know, you can't put the cork back in the
00:34:01.280bottle, those kinds of things are going to happen again. And they're going to be in your face. And
00:34:05.040people are going to get really uncomfortable and have to deal with the cognitive dissonance when
00:34:08.960stories either like Ivan's or the first one that we covered, the monstrosity of trafficking children
00:34:14.640happens on a regular basis. But that seems to be the price of progress.
00:34:19.040And, you know, just amazing that, you know, born this way just disappeared out of nowhere. Like,
00:34:25.040yeah, I guess it just, you know, it's not, you know, we're not doing that anymore. We're done
00:34:28.880with that. It's no longer necessary. So we'll just ignore that it was like the crux of this
00:34:34.400throughout the whole thing. You know, this population keeps growing. But yeah, anyway.
00:34:39.680Well, by the explosion of this group and its propensity, right? I think we learned that it
00:34:44.240isn't born this way. It does come by the hands of another.
00:34:48.640So the other thing that I want to touch on real quick to tie all this together is also
00:34:53.600Tony Dungy this week, for those who don't know, also became kind of the victim of a woke mob after
00:35:00.160he attended the March for Life, you know, the pro-life rally that gets no coverage every year
00:35:07.920because it's really inconvenient. And, you know, remember protests only happen if the media wants
00:35:12.480them to have happened. So it's important to remember what protests actually are and how they
00:35:17.440actually work. But that said, Tony Dungy attended and he caught a lot of heat, of course. Apparently,
00:35:24.560he also made some kind of tweet at some point about, you know, them putting, about the school system
00:35:31.760placing sanitary napkins or pads in male bathrooms, because of course, you know, trans students,
00:35:42.240that that's what has to happen now. Tony Dungy made some kind of joke about, you know, them putting
00:35:46.240a litter box in the bathroom because someone had to fight as a cat. And of course, this makes Tony
00:35:51.200Dungy a super evil person. And so he also getting the canceling or whatever, they can't really cancel
00:35:58.240him at this point. He's got tons of money, I'm sure. But, you know, that he's getting a lot of that
00:36:03.360heat. And one of the things I saw between Dungy and this hockey player, Ivan, was that in both cases,
00:36:12.880I saw Christians, even Christian sports commentators saying, hey, where's our tolerance? Where's the
00:36:20.800tolerance for our beliefs? Tolerance was demanded for us over and over again. You know, we were told
00:36:28.000that everyone was going to live and let live, that everyone was going to have their own beliefs,
00:36:32.240and that we were going to be able to, you know, kind of, you know, go our own separate ways,
00:36:36.720and it wouldn't be a big deal. And it turns out now, actually, we're getting attacked. But, you know,
00:36:41.680kind of the point I was making on Twitter around this is, you know, the left is just not that stupid.
00:36:45.840They're just not as stupid as like, you know, the GOP or whatever, right? Like, the left understands that,
00:36:51.840like, one faith wants to carve up children to prove that they believe sufficiently in gender ideology,
00:36:58.800and the other one wants kids to, like, go to church. And these two cannot exist. They are
00:37:04.720mutually exclusive. Like, liberalism will not mediate this difference in moral visions. Like,
00:37:12.800someone's going to win this, and someone's going to lose this. And there is no third option. Like,
00:37:18.000either the public square is supportive of the good, the true, beautiful, and the true, or the public square
00:37:23.920is supportive in the complete destruction of children. And you really have to choose one. You
00:37:29.200don't get to, like, the left is not foolish enough to listen to your cries for, like, pluralism or
00:37:34.640tolerance. They never believed in any of that. That was never a real value of theirs. Tolerance for the
00:37:39.520left is you believe and you parrot what we say without question. And if you step off the reservation,
00:37:46.080we're going to crush you because we know that works. They have no interest in returning to some idea of
00:37:50.960neutrality or tolerance when it comes to competing moral visions.
00:37:55.120Absolutely. And as you've famously said on Twitter, and I think it used to be your pinned tweet for
00:38:00.160quite some time, was that the side that wants to be left alone will always lose to the side that wants
00:38:05.280to win. And this side that we're seeing from our opposition, progressivism, not only is it
00:38:10.400anti-civilizational, but it is the side that wants to win. It does want to conquer order. It wants to
00:38:16.080conquer traditional hierarchy norms regarding gender, sex, politics, everything that we've
00:38:21.520seen in between and have it completely inverted. And many people were fools to think that in the
00:38:27.600past that that could be, you know, we could have our pluralism, that we could have our ideas to be
00:38:32.240left alone. And we are now living very quickly from 2015, from over to L.V. Hodges to this very
00:38:38.240quickly and very rapidly. And, you know, Tony Dungy is probably one of the nicest sports commentators
00:38:44.000that's out there. For those that still watch, you know, when growing up and watching football
00:38:48.560with my family, like, I don't remember that ever being a, him ever having a bad thing to say or
00:38:52.960ever getting in trouble. But simply having the belief that children should not be murdered in
00:38:56.960the womb is going to have people like Gilberman, you know, yelling for your resignation or for you
00:39:01.600to be fired without any sort of severance package or anything like that. And I think it just goes back
00:39:07.200to that old idea about, you know, when I'm weaker for you, I ask for freedom because it's according to
00:39:10.960your principles. And when I'm stronger than you, I'll take it away. I think it's from the old Dune
00:39:15.360quote. But it really does illustrate what we're, what we're dealing with right now is, is that
00:39:21.600that promise of pluralism or that we'll be left alone was never going to happen. And we're now
00:39:27.200living in the aftermath of what that looks like. And yes, most people still don't like it in their
00:39:32.080revealed preferences. I mean, no one wants to go see a very openly raunchy gay rom-com like Bros or
00:39:37.680whatever it was called. But it doesn't matter because they still have to parrot the talking
00:39:41.360points. They still have to say what's appropriate in polite conversation and polite company.
00:39:46.320So you don't get fired or so people don't shun you or keep you out from having a promotion
00:39:51.360and things like that. And that seems to be the play-by-play of what we're dealing with here,
00:39:56.400because it's going to keep going down the slopes, the faster and faster as we discussed the last
00:40:02.080time I came on, because where else does this lead to but here? If it's no longer born this way,
00:40:08.240but we can now have, for instance, transgender children, that leads into the very uncomfortable
00:40:13.040conversation of, well, if that's the case, then a consent-based society means that children can do
00:40:18.160what they wish. And that's what I think what's going to happen in the future. But that's where we're at
00:40:22.800politically, I think. And what comes now more than ever is going to be more and more people willing
00:40:28.720to take the hit to say no. And as dangerous as that is, it will require conservatives and right-wingers
00:40:36.000to be willing to step up to the plate and support these people with jobs and finance. I know that you
00:40:41.040had Matthew Peterson on recently to talk about institutions and jobs, and there's going to need
00:40:46.320to be more of that in the coming years. Yeah, no, absolutely. I mean, it's so important that there's
00:40:52.560a place for people to go when this stuff comes for them. And obviously you don't have like an
00:40:56.560alternative hockey league or something like that at this point. But in general, it's very important
00:41:01.360for the average person to have a way to reach out and find employment and still be able to earn a
00:41:06.400living when these kinds of mobs come for them for just espousing very basic tenets of their faith.
00:41:14.080Let's be very clear. The state has made it very difficult, almost impossible to interact with almost
00:41:19.840any institution at this point while holding a traditional understanding of Christian marriage.
00:41:25.280Right. Like that is just not an option for most people if they want to be able to do many of
00:41:30.160the things that are involved with the state. At that point, you just have to be calling it what
00:41:33.440it is. It is religious persecution. It's active, it's happening in America, and it's supported by
00:41:38.800the media and corporations. They are not shamed out of this stuff. And so we really need to understand
00:41:45.920how important it is to have alternatives, ways for people to make livings outside of this when you have
00:41:51.040that kind of pressure because there needs to be some kind of escape valve. And I want to talk a
00:41:55.840little bit about kind of the culture war in general, just the idea of the culture war, because a lot of
00:42:00.960people on the right, especially people who are kind of either they're not very religious themselves,
00:42:07.120or they're people who were kind of left wing and they kind of came over the right, they're on the
00:42:12.080neocon cycle. They don't want to be involved in the culture war, or at least not in this way, right?
00:42:18.000Like maybe they don't want trans kids stuff in the school, but they don't want the Ten Commandments
00:42:21.520there either, right? Like they just don't, they're fine with the last version of the purging of kind
00:42:26.880of religious liberty or the ability of people to have traditional understandings of kind of America.
00:42:35.120They're fine with that last version of it. They just don't like the current one. And so there are a lot
00:42:38.320of people on the right who just say we need to ignore the culture war. This is a losing issue.
00:42:43.520You know, we have a lot of people are like, oh, this is all a distraction. You should be focusing on
00:42:47.280whatever my new economic program or class or something like that. At the end of the day,
00:42:53.040all this culture war stuff is just, it's a smokescreen and that the real power is hidden in,
00:42:59.840you know, monetary policy or whatever. And I'm not discounting portions of some of that stuff.
00:43:05.200But people didn't understand the role that the culture war has played in the growth of the state's
00:43:11.360power. It is, it is completely intertwined. Okay. As the Prudentialist was pointing out,
00:43:16.880the people are going to be pushing this through arms of the state and they're going to, they are
00:43:22.720already using this ideology to do things like separate parents from their children. If your parent
00:43:28.320is a wrong thinker, if they don't agree with the ideology, then they're going to lose custody of
00:43:33.520children. The state is wedging ideology between the, between the child and their parent to make
00:43:40.560sure that at some point they can then use, you know, civil rights law to emancipate the child from
00:43:46.480their parents. Because at the end of the day, the child has rights. The child has the ability to
00:43:50.320consent. The child has the right to make choices outside of the values of their parent. And that's
00:43:55.360an incredible growth of the power of the state. That's a massive growth of the power of state,
00:44:00.080the ability for it to evade everything. I mean, the very definition, like if you want to know if
00:44:04.240you're in the total state, the way you know you're in the total state is that the state has the ability
00:44:08.720to at will turn the child on their parents. And that's how, you know, you've gotten to that point.
00:44:14.160And we're, we're right there. We're, we're at the, the precipice. And so pretending like the culture
00:44:19.440war just doesn't matter because really I've got an economic project or something on the side here.
00:44:24.960It's ridiculous. You have to, you, we got to this point because you refuse to care about this stuff.
00:44:29.360You have to start caring. There's no other option. I do have to laugh when there is always this call
00:44:34.480that says that the culture war is either safe or it's the tolerable thing to talk about,
00:44:39.520not some of the real issues. To some extent, there's a lot of truth in that because the first
00:44:44.000story that we had just covered with regards to adoption and trafficking highlights the uncomfortable
00:44:48.880angle that it has to be approached. Oh, it's the adoption agency. Oh, it's known criminals. Oh,
00:44:54.400it's people that were previously investigated rather than the direct identity or the propensity
00:44:59.840of said identity itself. And because we can't have uncomfortable conversations in this country,
00:45:04.960especially ones that do not go within the, you know, placated total state sort of regime,
00:45:11.520you know, praises and words that we have to say, like love is love and all that jazz.
00:45:16.160Then we have to approach it in a different avenue in a different direction. And the inability to
00:45:20.640approach inconvenient issues happens. And what we've seen out of this is that by simply saying no,
00:45:27.760I think it was Sun Tzu and the art of war that said, you know, when you say no to someone who can't
00:45:32.160hear it, that's basically the declaration of war. And when it gets to that point, we're sort of falling
00:45:37.920back again to the vindication of Schmidt's criticisms of liberal democracy, that once there becomes these
00:45:43.360issues that are so whole and near and dear ideologically, personally, or even for your
00:45:48.400own gratification, someone who says no is an instantaneous litmus test for who is the enemy.
00:45:54.080And I think that a lot of people, especially conservative Christians in the United States,
00:45:59.280do need to recognize you are a minority in this country. This is going to continue to happen for a
00:46:04.480considerable length of time. And that the time to make preparations, well, it's no time to start
00:46:10.240like today, but better late than never. But that's where we're at. And this is the total state. This is
00:46:15.040where we're going to be for a considerable length of time. And I don't mean to say this to be
00:46:19.280a sort of demoralizing account here, but rather than to say that this is the foreseeable future for
00:46:24.720years to come, this is that what we deem to be progressive and acceptable comes with some of the
00:46:30.080nastiest consequences like we've already covered today. And it's only going to get more and more
00:46:35.040common. And the likelihood of people judging their own livelihood or their family or their children
00:46:41.920for their own moral conscience is going to get increasingly difficult. And that is sort of the
00:46:47.200power of powerlessness here in the United States. We are in our own sort of Soviet style of persecution
00:46:54.400and political disputation like Dungie or Ivan have because they believe in something that is
00:46:59.840contradictory to the state of regime and its mandates. They will be, you know, thrown out of
00:47:04.560polite society and they will be thrown into their own gulags and ghettos ideologically. It's why we see
00:47:09.920people get banned all the time or demonetized off YouTube or these platforms. We exist in enemy
00:47:14.960territory and that's the way it's going to be for some time. Yeah, I read about this in kind of my
00:47:20.480latest chapter on, on the total state. You know, one of the things that, one of the reasons that the,
00:47:25.520the Western states, total states get away with what they do is because they're Fox based states instead
00:47:32.000of line based states. And so, because they're not putting people in gulags, but instead they are just
00:47:37.840making sure that they can't be, you know, do business anymore. They can't get hired. They can't
00:47:42.720be seen in public. They can't do banking. They lose the ability to, to just, again, interact with the
00:47:48.800basic institutions required for life in kind of the Western world. Because that, that is a far easier
00:47:54.960way to quell dissent in the modern age, as opposed to like having to ship your enemies on trains and
00:48:01.760drive them to camps. People pretend like things just aren't that bad. And, and, and like you said,
00:48:07.120it's really important, I think for conservative Christians, especially to understand they are in
00:48:11.280the minority at this point. And that's really important because there's always this feeling,
00:48:15.040right? That the, the silent majority is coming, you know, and the silent majority will save us.
00:48:20.240At the end of the day, the democratic impulse will, you know, but we'll, we'll rise up and throw down
00:48:25.280kind of these, these decadent elites because they'll see that they've been pushed too far and they'll,
00:48:31.600they'll rise up and they'll push back and, and we'll return back to the way things are supposed to be.
00:48:37.840That is not coming. You are not the majority. There is, there is not some point at which 51% of people
00:48:44.080will realize that you were right and they were wrong and they will snap to attention and they
00:48:49.760will kind of bring this revolution to heal. That is not how things are going to work. And you got to
00:48:55.600wrap your head around that because if you don't, again, this isn't to demoralize, this is to prepare.
00:49:00.240Like the Prudentialist said, you have to shift your mindset. You have to understand, okay,
00:49:03.920we're in the minority. What does that mean? How do we protect ourselves? How do we carve out a way
00:49:08.880to, to keep our children from falling prey to this kind of thing? How do we protect our communities and
00:49:14.480the people around us that we care about? You have to start shifting to that mentality and understanding
00:49:20.000that, you know, if you want control of the popular apparatus anymore, if you want your opinions,
00:49:27.120your values to be the ones that are prevalent in, in the public square, again, you can't be pretending
00:49:32.960that there's going to be some return to, to institutional neutrality. This is the new faith.
00:49:38.560This is the ruling ideology. This is the worldview that dominates everything around you. It has to
00:49:44.720be challenged. It has to be replaced. You have to replace it with a positive vision. Neutrality is not
00:49:48.880enough. You can't just leave the abyss or you're just waiting for it to come back a few years later.
00:49:53.760Either you replace this with something that actually is good and beautiful and true and actually gives
00:49:59.840people a way to live in purposeful and meaningful lives, or it will continue. People will take an
00:50:05.280answer, even if it's a horrific answer over no answer at all. And you just have to understand that.
00:50:10.880Absolutely. And that's where we're going to be for a considerable length of time is the necessary
00:50:15.680need to reshift the footing. The claims of the silent majority will, I mean, that comes from Nixon.
00:50:21.040And we saw how Nixon was effectively thrown out of office in the 1970s. And we're not going to go back
00:50:26.640to a time where someone's got his recordings, giving off his sort of based right-wing opinions
00:50:31.680in the annals of the White House. That time has long since passed. And so that's the clear reminder
00:50:37.520that needs to be stated. This is that you are a minority and you are up against a force that will,
00:50:42.560through law, dialectics, persecution, ostracism, and all other such manners, um, to go after your kids.
00:50:49.440And, you know, if they're unhappy and screeching and wailing that they can't abort your child,
00:50:53.840well, they will happily indoctrinate and abuse and traffic them to get them to where they want.
00:50:58.160Because anything that does not reproduce naturally through natural procreative means is going to have
00:51:03.920to be parasitical. And that's what we're dealing with right now. Whether that means boundless of
00:51:08.720thousands of people coming across the border illegally and the state not doing anything
00:51:12.080about it or not doing anything when cases like these tend to happen, that's what you're up against.
00:51:17.760And that requires you to have networks of like-minded people just to rely on it. Can you trust your
00:51:23.440neighbors or your neighbors, public school teachers, for example, that believe in it?
00:51:27.360Those are things that have to come into consideration when all these things play a major role
00:51:32.160in not only your livelihood, but the livelihood of your children. And they don't want you to have
00:51:38.240kids. And if they do, they're going to go after them and encourage public schooling. There's a lot
00:51:41.200of discussion right now on the left about the need to get rid of public school and that they're so
00:51:45.920unhappy that these so-called basic facts of life, that trans women are women or something like that,
00:51:50.400aren't, you know, these parents don't want to teach that? Well, that clearly has to be outlawed. And
00:51:54.480they will use the power of the state to do so and latch on to previously existing legislation and
00:52:00.000institutions to do it. Whether it's disparate impact, you know, protected identities and status,
00:52:05.760they will continue on and generate new ones. And this isn't going to burn out anytime soon. I don't
00:52:10.480see this, you know, sun of progress, you know, growing supernova or burning out into a red dwarf
00:52:16.560anytime soon. It is the burn is going to keep going. Yeah, absolutely. You have to remember
00:52:23.120and, you know, by all means protect your children in the way you can. But like you said,
00:52:27.920at the end of the day, these people are going to find some kind of way probably through, you know,
00:52:33.280civil rights law, because it is the magical wand that rules our nation right now to eliminate the
00:52:39.600ability to even take care of your own kids, to protect your own kids. Like I said, we're already
00:52:43.760seeing the state use these identities, these protective classes as ways to wedge children
00:52:50.400away from their parents. And so just, just the need to understand that the solution, you know,
00:52:54.800yes, fix things at home first, you know, protect at home first, but understand it doesn't just stop
00:52:59.600there. And then being, you know, active in your community when, you know, making sure that the
00:53:04.480right people in charge, it doesn't buy you everything, it doesn't protect you forever,
00:53:08.000but, but it buys you time. And that's really essential in a case where people are pushing this stuff
00:53:13.360constantly. It's, it's the, the best way to have a, the best kind of political insurance,
00:53:18.480if any is available at this point. So, so do remember that guys. All right. So we're going to
00:53:22.800move on to any questions people have in just a minute. So if you have any questions, guys,
00:53:26.640you can throw those up there. But before we do that, Prudentialist, do you want to point everybody
00:53:33.520to all the very cool stuff that you do?
00:53:35.360Sure. If I could make one last point before we do those things is that you have to keep in mind
00:53:42.080that even if they have complete control over everything, there's a reason why Oren has that
00:53:46.720term coined for the total state for a reason. There is a totality of control in almost every
00:53:51.360institution and they will go for the ones that don't do it. Even though they have complete control
00:53:55.680over everything, this mindset that you see is a mindset of the revolutionary. It does not matter that
00:54:01.040they have secured the Politburo, that the Tsarists have been murdered and martyred.
00:54:05.120What matters to them is that where else can power be found? And if not, where can I ax power out of
00:54:10.480other ways? It's the same way we see the left right now, you know, having their own discourse over
00:54:14.720the term non-binary. Is it a way to sidestep racial questions? Is it a sidestep to just be seen as an
00:54:20.240identity? That kind of revolutionary mentality is not going to go away because the revolution has to
00:54:25.360continue. It has to perpetuate, even if they have total control over everything. This is why to the
00:54:30.160left, every election is the, it's like you're voting for 1933 and you can have the opportunity
00:54:35.120to stop, you know, a certain regime from rising into power. It's the same reason why they believed
00:54:40.160that, you know, when George W. Bush was in office or when Trump was in office, all these terrible
00:54:44.160things were going to happen. The power of fear against those who know that they do not deserve
00:54:48.960power and shouldn't be anywhere near the levers of control has been their ultimate motivating force.
00:54:53.600And it's going to continue for some time soon. The last thing that they want is for them to,
00:54:58.480you know, have an opportunity or a place to say that they can't actually activate.
00:55:02.320And then they're going to bring even more force to bear against it. And that's going to be something
00:55:06.640that we have to, to advantage. But that's the final point that I wanted to add is that
00:55:10.000the revolutionary mindset is very real. Yeah. A hundred, a hundred percent. Again,
00:55:14.160like the left is a force of deconstruction is a force of societal entropy. It gains its political
00:55:21.760and social energy by inverting hierarchies and breaking natural bonds. And the, if they,
00:55:28.720that's why they keep going for smaller and smaller and smaller wedges, because there's always something
00:55:33.760that has to be consumed, you know, that, that is the essential part of the left. And if they ever run
00:55:39.040out of fuel, then they'll just start eating themselves. But until then they, they will come
00:55:43.840after kind of all those things that is a necessity of what they do. So I think that's an excellent point.
00:55:48.720All right. Oh, but you didn't tell people where they can find your, all your awesome stuff. So
00:55:52.400you got to do that. Well, thank you, Orin again, for having me on. But if you don't know me,
00:55:56.560I'm the Prudentialist. You can find me on YouTube, Twitter, Odyssey, and other places. I have a great
00:56:01.600link called findmyfriends.net slash the Prudentialist. You can find all of my work there.
00:56:06.320I primarily do international relations and cultural commentary here on YouTube, as well as book reviews and
00:56:13.600other cultural commentary on Substack. So like Orin, you know, I just do a lot of writing,
00:56:18.640do video work and very glad to be brought on here. And if you want to know what the heck is going on
00:56:23.600in the world, every Saturday at 2pm Eastern, I do prudent observations or review of geopolitics,
00:56:29.360international relations and theory. So not only can we have a finger on the pulse on our politics,
00:56:33.360like Orin does, but also what's going on in the world abroad.
00:56:37.040Absolutely. And you should definitely check out a video he just did on political ratchets.
00:56:42.080It was very good, even if he called me a dirty journalist.
00:56:44.480That's how much I like the Prudentialist work. I'll still endorse it. Even even if he smears my
00:56:51.200good name with was such a moniker. Well, you can't say you're a recovering journalist anymore.
00:56:56.480Look, we don't have, you know, difficult truths. Okay, we don't have to acknowledge that. No.
00:57:01.680So yeah, definitely make sure that you check that video because he did a very good job with that one.
00:57:07.200Also, a couple things, guys. I've got an article that's on this right now dropping on the blaze
00:57:13.360today, probably. So make sure that you check for that piece. And also, I've got a
00:57:20.480podcast tomorrow with Gio Patnelli and Last Things. It's going to be on Trojan horses in kind of TV shows
00:57:29.760that start off base but become woke. I'm looking forward to that one. I think it's gonna be really
00:57:33.280good. So make sure that you check that out tomorrow. And then, of course, if this is your
00:57:37.920first time here, please make sure you go ahead and subscribe. And if you haven't done so, the podcast
00:57:42.640has been really blown up. I appreciate all you guys for doing that. It's been amazing to see
00:57:47.200everyone just subscribing over there. But if you're one of the people who hasn't made the transition
00:57:50.800over there and you want to be able to listen to this while you're working out, mowing the lawn,
00:57:54.640playing video games, doing all the important things that you do, make sure that you go ahead to
00:57:59.360your favorite podcast platform. It's on all the major ones, Spotify, Apple, all that stuff.
00:58:04.480Go ahead and subscribe to the podcast there. And if you do so, please make sure that you're leaving
00:58:10.560that like and rather that rating and a review, if you would, that just helps everything out,
00:58:15.920makes it much easier for people to find the show. So I really appreciate it. And then, oh,
00:58:22.000we got a super chat here. Grab that real quick before we go. Creeper Weirdo 2.0. I didn't,
00:58:28.400two dollars. Thank you very much. I didn't know the Anchorman had a kid.
00:58:34.640I did not draw that comparison. I usually think of you as a World War One veteran.
00:58:40.160Oh, that's what I normally get called, like some Anglo officer getting told to throw people over the
00:58:44.720trench. But you know, I, Will Ferrell used to be funny, so I guess it's not that bad.
00:58:49.680Yeah, no, I feel like that mustache is one that was born to tell people to get over the trench. Yeah,
00:58:55.600I think that's, but I could see the Anchorman. Yeah. And that was a movie back when Will Ferrell had
00:59:01.600some comedy left. So not the worst thing in the world. All right, guys. Well,
00:59:05.520thank you so much for coming on. And as always, we'll talk to you next time.
