00:01:33.000 That's why we are here, brought to you by Andrew And Todd at Sierra Pacific.

00:01:42.000 Go to Andrewandtodd.com the Wonderfulandrewandtodd.com.

00:01:48.000 So I want to lead today with something that's hard to believe.

00:01:51.000 It's very shocking.

00:01:53.000 But first I want to get to some sound on how the media reacts when civilians and children are killed overseas.

00:02:05.000 Cut six is CNN covering what's happening in Ukraine and they say this is a mass grave, a mass grave involving children.

00:02:15.000 Play cut six.

00:02:16.000 Um, so essentially what we're seeing here, that what you have behind me here is, is a mass grave.

00:02:22.000 This is the place that you were just showing on those on those satellite images, and uh and, and that's where.

00:02:27.000 Uh, the people here tell us that around 150 bodies have been, have been buried here and then cut seven, seeing how they believe as much 300 people could be in the mass graves.

00:02:39.000 Play cut seven.

00:02:40.000 And you know, behind me, the authorities say that there's around 150 to maybe 200 bodies inside that mass grave.

00:02:48.000 Already the mayor of Butcha has obviously said that he believes that in total, here in this district, around 300 people might be buried in in mass graves.

00:02:57.000 So death is something we shouldn't support.

00:02:59.000 CNN is obviously saying that the murdering of innocents or civilians is something that any decent society should reject.

00:03:08.000 You watch that and you say, of course, I don't like it when children are murdered, I don't like it when children are killed.

00:03:14.000 So while that is occurring, something very contradictory is occurring in the state of California now.

00:03:21.000 This is something that every single patriot, every Christian, every person that has a moral compass needs to focus on.

00:03:29.000 What's happening in California.

00:03:31.000 It's almost hard to believe what's occurring through the California legislature.

00:03:38.000 California legislature moves forward with bill to expand the killing of babies past the moment of birth Quote, actually legalizing a fantasy in an abortion bill to expand the killing of babies past the moment of birth up to weeks after, according to opponents of the bill, Wick said that while other states, Wick is the sponsor here, Buffy Wicks, that while other states are adopting increasingly aggressive measures to limit abortions,

00:04:08.000 California continues to protect reproductive rights.

00:04:12.000 Wicks said the only bill, the bill only applies to pregnant women who should, quote, not be prosecuted for losing or miscarrying a baby or for, quote, a tragic situation during pregnancy.

00:04:23.000 Section 7A of the bill states, notwithstanding any other law, a person shall not be subject to a civil or criminal liability, penalty, or otherwise deprived of their rights based on their actions or omissions with respect to the pregnancy or actual potential alleged pregnancy outcome, including miscarriage, stillbirth, or abortion, or perionatal death.

00:04:45.000 From the California Family Council, quote, this bill specifically protects a mother from civil and criminal charges for any, quote, actions or omissions to her pregnancy, including miscarriage, stillbirth, or abortion, or perinatal death.

00:04:57.000 The definition of perinatal death varies, although there all include the death of baby from 22 weeks of gestation to seven days post-birth or more.

00:05:10.000 Subsection B, Section 7, quote, a person who aids or assists a pregnant person in exercising their rights under this article.

00:05:22.000 This is infanticide.

00:05:26.000 It's passed by Assemblymember Wicks, and it has now passed the committee to go for a vote in the California Assembly.

00:05:36.000 Now, you have to give the Democrats credit in one regard.

00:05:40.000 They're being consistent.

00:05:43.000 You see, if you do not believe that life begins at conception, which they don't, if you don't believe that it's a life at 22 weeks, who's to say that it would be a life at seven days?

00:05:55.000 Just because the baby leaves the birth canal, who's to say that that's a life?

00:06:01.000 Democrats are now being as consistent with their infanticide beliefs as pro-lifers are consistent with our pro-life beliefs.

00:06:15.000 Maryland Senate Bill 669 would legalize infanticide as well.

00:06:20.000 The chief sponsor, Senator Will Smith, not that Will Smith, a different Will Smith, states that no person can be investigated or charged for, quote, experiencing a miscarriage, perinatal death related to a failure to act or stillbirth.

00:06:34.000 The perinatal death period contains what period shortly before and after birth from the 20th to the 29th week of gestation to one to four weeks after birth.

00:06:44.000 In other words, quote, anywhere up to four weeks after birth of the child you and your sexual partner conceived, you could decide that you really don't want the child.

00:06:51.000 Hey, no problem.

00:06:52.000 Just don't feed it.

00:06:53.000 Don't get medical care.

00:06:54.000 Don't do a thing.

00:06:56.000 And that's it.

00:06:56.000 So you could have a child.

00:06:58.000 The child can come out of the birth canal.

00:07:01.000 The umbilical cord could be cut and you could say, I don't want this child anymore.

00:07:05.000 You can discard the child.

00:07:06.000 And according to the California and Maryland bills, that's perfectly fine.

00:07:12.000 According to California and Maryland legislature, who's to say that that's a life?

00:07:19.000 They're being as consistent as pro-lifers are being consistent.

00:07:25.000 And I'm very pro-life.

00:07:27.000 But if it's not a life at conception, it's not a life at the heartbeat.

00:07:31.000 It's not a life at fingerprint development.

00:07:33.000 It's not a life all throughout the process, then what exactly makes a life?

00:07:37.000 Well, they can't answer that question.

00:07:40.000 Whenever you have a cross-examination with a pro-abortion activist, they cannot answer the question of when does life begin.

00:07:46.000 It's like a sliding scale.

00:07:48.000 Like, oh, somewhere between 15 weeks or 25 weeks.

00:07:54.000 But since they're not able to answer that question, well, then the principal thing to do is like, well, should you be able to terminate life in every phase?

00:08:02.000 And they believe, of course, that you should be able to.

00:08:04.000 You see, one of the cornerstones of the progressives, one of the foundational beliefs is the reliance on scientific administration, is the reliance on being able to use science to dominate our circumstances.

00:08:25.000 Is the belief to be able to use the expert class to be able to have dominion, and I use that word intentionally, over what's happening in the natural world.

00:08:36.000 And no practice are you able to be so powerful as in the practice of abortion.

00:08:43.000 To be able to take a perfectly innocent human being and eliminate that human being just because it's unwanted is the ultimate act that could only make you close to what we would describe as God.

00:08:58.000 Now, what's happening in California is that they are basically turning the entire state into an abortion capital.

00:09:06.000 They know Roe versus Wade is likely going to be challenged and repealed and brought down to the states this summer.

00:09:15.000 They know that this is going to happen.

00:09:18.000 Therefore, they're trying to create a culture in California where the elimination of innocent life is preserved and is protected, as horrific as that might seem.

00:09:29.000 But it's not just now in the womb.

00:09:32.000 No, no, no, no.

00:09:33.000 We're now talking post-birth.

00:09:37.000 And this shouldn't shock anyone.

00:09:39.000 Democrats have been saying this out loud for quite some time.

00:09:44.000 They've been talking about being able to take the life of a child once it's born.

00:09:50.000 But, of course, the media hasn't been covering that.

00:09:52.000 We haven't been focusing on it.

00:09:54.000 But the abortionists are being consistent.

00:09:57.000 If it's just a clump of cells at two weeks, 20 weeks, then it's just the clump of cells once the baby is born.

00:10:03.000 Why shouldn't you be able to terminate it? 0.85

00:10:05.000 Baby crying too much, just be able to kill it. 0.99

00:10:07.000 That's the position of the modern Democrat Party. 0.97

00:10:13.000 Almost every day we hear about another major corporation that has gone woke.

00:10:17.000 Disney hates you, and everyone should cancel Disney.

00:10:21.000 They hate families.

00:10:22.000 Disney made tons of money off of being family-friendly and family-safe.

00:10:27.000 Now it's time to divest from Disney. 0.81

00:10:29.000 There's a lot of companies like T-Mobile that's firing all their unvaccinated employees.

00:10:33.000 They're tormenting their employees with leftist propaganda and funding organizations who seem to hate this country.

00:10:38.000 And so I was on a mission.

00:10:39.000 I was seeing how much I was spending on my cell phone bill, how much Turning Point USA was spending on our cell phone bill.

00:10:45.000 I said, I'm so sick and tired of giving these anti-American cell phone companies my hard-earned money and our amazing donor money at Turning Point USA.

00:10:53.000 So I told my team, I said, go find the cell phone company that shares our values.

00:10:57.000 And I remember I met this guy, Glenn.

00:11:00.000 We'd run into each other a couple times, and he was super enthusiastic, always wore this red polo, said Patriot Mobile on it.

00:11:06.000 And I saw him again in an event.

00:11:07.000 I said, okay, now you really got to sit down.

00:11:10.000 Let's plan some time together and talk about this.

00:11:12.000 So we had this meal in Dallas.

00:11:13.000 This is back in November.

00:11:14.000 And he laid it all out.

00:11:15.000 And I got it.

00:11:16.000 I was like, wow, okay.

00:11:17.000 So you're at a conservative Christian cell phone provider and I don't have to pay all these woke companies.

00:11:22.000 And it just like clicked in a minute.

00:11:23.000 I said, let's partner together.

00:11:24.000 Let's have you on the show.

00:11:26.000 Let's do some things.

00:11:27.000 And that's how it all started.

00:11:28.000 So Patriot Mobile, they have plans to fit every budget.

00:11:32.000 And their U.S.-based customer support team provides exceptional customer service.

00:11:36.000 Most importantly, Patriot Mobile shares your values and supports organizations fighting for religious liberty, constitutional rights, and the sanctity of life.

00:11:45.000 So make the switch today.

00:11:46.000 I know the whole management team behind Patriot Mobile, Glenn, all of them, they support Turning Point USA.

00:11:52.000 They support us beautifully.

00:11:53.000 So you go to patriotmobile.com/slash Charlie or call 972 Patriot.

00:11:57.000 People ask all the time, Charlie, what do I do?

00:11:59.000 What do I do?

00:12:00.000 Well, a good way to start is, you know, make your cell phone bill, whatever.

00:12:04.000 If you see it on your cell phone statement, you get your cell phone statement.

00:12:07.000 You might as well just say, oh, that money's going to the DNC or that money's going to Christian conservative organizations or company like Patriot Mobile.

00:12:15.000 So you get a free activation with the offer code Charlie.

00:12:18.000 They also have special discounts for veterans and first responder heroes.

00:12:21.000 It's patriotmobile.com/slash Charlie or call 972 Patriot.

00:12:25.000 Join me and the Charlie Kirk Show in our change to Patriot Mobile and forgetting all these woke, awful, terrible cell phone companies.

00:12:32.000 Portions of this program, the Charlie Kirk Show, are brought to you in part by Patriot Mobile.

00:12:37.000 It's patriotmobile.com/slash Charlie, patriotmobile.com/slash Charlie.

00:12:44.000 It really says a lot of what are we willing to do to protect those that can't protect themselves.

00:12:50.000 And according to the Democrats, we have to be super worried about children being slaughtered in Ukraine, which of course bothers me. 0.56

00:12:58.000 But we're now going to make it easier to slaughter children in America. 0.87

00:13:02.000 This idea of post-birth abortion shouldn't surprise anybody.

00:13:06.000 This is something they've been talking about for quite some time.

00:13:09.000 Remember when Governor Ralph Northam, the former governor of Virginia, was caught on a radio program saying the quiet part out loud, talking about how when a baby is delivered, that God relax the baby and then a decision will be made for the babe.

00:13:30.000 Cut 73.

00:13:31.000 So in this particular example, if a mother is in labor, I can tell you exactly what would happen.

00:13:38.000 The infant would be delivered.

00:13:40.000 The infant would be kept comfortable.

00:13:42.000 The infant would be resuscitated if that's what the mother and the family desired.

00:13:47.000 And then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mothers. 0.74

00:13:52.000 So you hear it right there.

00:13:53.000 I mean, this, and by the way, he was just totally heralded by the Democrat Party.

00:13:57.000 The Democrat Party, largely, I know there's exceptions, but they really don't have value for baby life.

00:14:02.000 They never have.

00:14:03.000 And I hate to overly generalize like that, but he was a sitting governor who just said, look, the baby is delivered, resuscitated, kept comfortable, and then the mother will make a decision.

00:14:17.000 The only decision at that point in time that needs to be made is, what are you naming the child?

00:14:22.000 Where are you sending the child to school?

00:14:24.000 So this whole idea of post-birth abortion really shouldn't surprise any of you.

00:14:30.000 They've been talking about this for quite some time.

00:14:30.000 It shouldn't.

00:14:34.000 Someone just emailed us.

00:14:35.000 They said, I'm listening to you talk about this.

00:14:36.000 How can Democrats call themselves Christians or Catholics and then pass abortion laws?

00:14:41.000 Well, they're not Christians, obviously. 0.51

00:14:42.000 They're just Christian in name only.

00:14:44.000 I don't believe that you could be a Christian and also support late-term abortion. 0.60

00:14:48.000 Or post-birth abortion. 0.98

00:14:48.000 You just can't. 0.98

00:14:51.000 I'm not here to say that.

00:14:52.000 I don't know what your salvation story is, but certainly makes me doubt your faith.

00:14:57.000 And Biden, of course, with his Ash Wednesday cross in hand, is the one overseeing this.

00:15:02.000 This is not an exaggeration.

00:15:04.000 You could read the bill for yourself.

00:15:06.000 In California, they will make it legal that you could deliver the baby, go home for up to seven days, and if day five, you don't want the baby anymore, California is instituting a refund policy that you could just return the baby or put it in a trash can.

00:15:21.000 It's perfectly fine.

00:15:22.000 It's a clump of cells.

00:15:25.000 Not an exaggeration.

00:15:27.000 What does that say for us as a society?

00:15:29.000 Well, it's perfectly consistent, isn't it? 0.70

00:15:33.000 If Democrats aren't able to terminate the children when they're born, they'll try to corrupt them with perverse LGBTQ agendas. 1.00

00:15:40.000 Everything the left is trying to do is trying to destroy the innocence or the life of those that are not able to defend themselves, those that do not have the life experience or the years to be able to understand any differently. 0.97

00:15:53.000 It's all tied together.

00:15:56.000 AB 2223, reproductive health, is what we are being told this is by member Wicks.

00:16:07.000 And this has now been passed into not into law, but it's been passed into session.

00:16:16.000 None of the Republicans voted for this, but they don't have much power in California.

00:16:23.000 You read this bill, it just makes you, it just takes your breath away.

00:16:28.000 You have passed out of committee.

00:16:29.000 Thank you.

00:16:31.000 And a very simple question.

00:16:32.000 And a pro-abortion activist is always welcome on this program. 0.56

00:16:35.000 They tend not to want to talk to me, but you understand, this is a good thing I want you to kind of chew on for a second here.

00:16:43.000 Isn't it interesting how the left can't answer the basic questions?

00:16:47.000 What does that say about their political movement?

00:16:50.000 The basic stuff.

00:16:51.000 What is a woman? 1.00

00:16:52.000 Can't answer that. 1.00

00:16:53.000 When does life begin?

00:16:54.000 Can't answer that.

00:16:56.000 Where do rights come from?

00:16:57.000 Can't answer that.

00:17:00.000 If a political movement can't answer the most basic questions, why should we trust them with the more complicated ones?

00:17:07.000 If you can't answer what a woman is and when does life begin and what life is worthy of protection, and according to the Democrats, a couple days after, they need to make sure that they want to have a refund policy. 0.99

00:17:21.000 I mean, come on.

00:17:23.000 But it's all consistent.

00:17:25.000 And it will go beyond seven days, by the way.

00:17:28.000 Eventually, it will be seven years. 0.57

00:17:30.000 I mean, come on, if your toddler is screaming too much at three years old, shouldn't you have the ability to murder the toddler?

00:17:35.000 That's consistent with what they're saying.

00:17:37.000 Where do you draw the line?

00:17:40.000 Well, we draw the line by saying that life begins at conception. 0.97

00:17:42.000 You are move, pro-choicers.

00:17:44.000 They're being consistent.

00:17:45.000 They say, well, if it's not a life at conception, then it will never be a life.

00:17:49.000 It's always a clump of cells, and therefore it's whoever's the most fully developed, strongest, most powerful person, pure Darwinism.

00:17:55.000 We're in charge.

00:17:55.000 You aren't.

00:17:56.000 We can crush you. 0.96

00:17:57.000 That's our morality.

00:18:00.000 Look, there's so much political pressure out there from the left and the woke mob, and it's from the Democrat Party.

00:18:06.000 Our society has ultimately been controlled by cancel cultural elites.

00:18:10.000 Look, we talk openly on this program about what you need to do.

00:18:15.000 And so I am involved.

00:18:16.000 I am invested personally and also through the Charlie Kirk show to try to do everything we possibly can to try and push back against these Democrats and their lies.

00:18:27.000 And so look, you can get a signed picture by President Trump himself.

00:18:29.000 Look, I vetted this.

00:18:30.000 It's terrific.

00:18:32.000 And not only will you be taking a stand against the radical left, you'll be entering the Winnipeg history itself.

00:18:38.000 All you have to do is text the word victory to 55404 today to enter.

00:18:43.000 That's V-I-C-T-O-R-Y to 55404.

00:18:47.000 Join me in standing up for President Trump and canceling the radical left.

00:18:50.000 Look, here's what we're really doing, though.

00:18:52.000 We're building a grassroots army to push back, to try to win the Senate race in Georgia, try to win the Senate race in Arizona.

00:18:58.000 This is paid for by the National Republican Senatorial Committee.

00:19:00.000 And I could tell you this, we have got to retire Chuck Schumer.

00:19:04.000 So text right now to win a signed picture with President Trump, V-I-C-T-O-R-Y-55404.

00:19:11.000 Take out your phone right now, free of charge, V-I-C-T-O-R-Y 55404.

00:19:21.000 Look, remember, everything that Democrats and the left always try to do is to try to remove innocence from children.

00:19:27.000 It's one of their top goals.

00:19:30.000 Once you remove the innocence from children, they become easier to control later in life, by the way.

00:19:34.000 Any child that has been abused, unfortunately, is more likely to be manipulated and abused later in life.

00:19:42.000 We had a great conversation with Victor Marx yesterday, someone who really underwent massive torture as a child.

00:19:47.000 He talked about that, that you become a damaged individual.

00:19:52.000 Well, the left wants to damage entire generations of children.

00:19:55.000 There's no other justification for this.

00:19:57.000 And it's all tied together.

00:19:59.000 These woke policies that are being put into these schools, what's happening at Disney is all trying to undermine the innocence of childhood and morals.

00:20:09.000 And so there are professors that are saying there is no moral reason to be able to say that pedophilia is wrong, that going after children is wrong.

00:20:17.000 This is a growing movement, by the way, on the left.

00:20:20.000 And I just hope everyone takes this seriously because there's been times we've made these predictions and people scoff at it and it's not taken seriously.

00:20:27.000 And then a couple years later, it becomes public policy.

00:20:31.000 We did a whole Ralph Northern thing a couple years ago and people thought it was isolated and people thought there was no sort of basis behind it.

00:20:40.000 This was a southern, a state University of New York professor under review for reprehensible video defending pedophilia.

00:20:47.000 That's one of the videos, Stefan Kirshner.

00:20:50.000 There's another couple of them where they say there's no philosophical basis at all where they could find that that's wrong.

00:20:55.000 And the obvious moral principle that has always been foundational to decent societies, and it's not foundational, by the way, in China.

00:21:04.000 It's not foundational, by the way, in Iran.

00:21:07.000 It's not foundational in other theocratic dictatorships.

00:21:10.000 They don't consider this to be a value.

00:21:11.000 But this is when we stop teaching Western civilization in our schools.

00:21:15.000 Then all of a sudden people don't realize what is a Western value.

00:21:19.000 Well, the Great Reset wants to get rid of Western values.

00:21:21.000 Let me give you an idea of what a Western value is.

00:21:23.000 The innocence of children must be protected.

00:21:26.000 That's a Western value.

00:21:29.000 That's not a value that they have in a lot of African countries.

00:21:32.000 They have children sold in the slave markets.

00:21:36.000 They have child marriages in Yemen and Oman and in Saudi Arabia and all across the Middle East where 11-year-old girls are sold into those relationships.

00:21:50.000 There's evidence, and it says it very clearly in the Quran and in some of the other texts that Muhammad was a pedophile, that Muhammad married young girls as young as 10, 11 years old.

00:22:03.000 Some of that is debated by historians, so be it.

00:22:09.000 I'm sure certainly seems pretty vivid in our understanding and study of the Quran.

00:22:15.000 National Public Radio continues with this theme: the right to abortion in Colorado is now guaranteed under state law.

00:22:25.000 Right.

00:22:25.000 That's how NPR says it.

00:22:27.000 No restrictions on abortion whatsoever.

00:22:30.000 Societies that do not protect the innocent, societies that don't value children as being innocent, are more likely to do what Colorado has done, more likely to do what California has done, more likely to do what Maryland has done.

00:22:48.000 And this is one of the reasons why the West is different. 0.92

00:22:51.000 Theocratic Islamic countries do not share these values. 0.98

00:22:54.000 They do not believe in theocratic dictatorships.

00:22:58.000 I'm not saying every Muslim country, but most of them. 0.94

00:23:02.000 They do not believe that child innocence is worth protecting. 1.00

00:23:05.000 Cut 79, minor attracted persons.

00:23:09.000 This is the guy that talked about how we need to broaden our appeal when it comes to minor attracted persons, CUT 79.

00:23:15.000 Thanks so much for that question.

00:23:17.000 I use the term minor attracted person or map in the title and throughout the book for multiple reasons.

00:23:23.000 First of all, because I think it's important to use terminology for groups that members of that group want others to use for them.

00:23:30.000 And map advocacy groups like Before You Act have advocated for use of the term map.

00:23:37.000 They've advocated for it primarily because it's less stigmatizing than other terms like pedophile.

00:23:43.000 A lot of people, when they hear the term pedophile, they automatically assume that it means a sex offender.

00:23:49.000 And that isn't true, and it leads to a lot of misconceptions about attractions toward minors.

00:23:55.000 I've definitely heard the idea that you brought up, though, that the use of the term minor attracted person suggests that it's okay to be attracted to children.

00:24:03.000 But using a term that communicates who someone is attracted to doesn't indicate anything about the morality of that attraction.

00:24:10.000 It doesn't say anything about the morality of the attraction.

00:24:14.000 Protecting children is a Western value.

00:24:17.000 What do you base morality on?

00:24:19.000 This is the question.

00:24:21.000 So that professor says it's okay, it's okay to be attracted to children.

00:24:26.000 Where Christian and Jewish morality, those together, believes that the protection of children is paramount.

00:24:35.000 Jesus said it very clearly.

00:24:36.000 He said, let the little children come to me.

00:24:39.000 That anyone who would dare make a child misstep, meaning making a child lose its innocence, it's better for them to have a millstone around their neck if they were thrown into the sea.

00:24:52.000 But if you remove absolute truth, if you remove absolute and objective reality, who's to say that marrying a child is wrong?

00:25:00.000 Why wouldn't that be incorrect?

00:25:03.000 There is no secular argument that could be made concretely without an abstract, transcendent, unchanging morality against either the slaughtering of a six-day old or the marrying of a six-year-old to an adult.

00:25:20.000 And isn't this very similar now with what we're seeing with Justice Jackson, soon-to-be Justice Jackson?

00:25:26.000 Where Justice Jackson is the one that's trying to change the Overton window, move the level of discourse on all these things.

00:25:36.000 And I want to reiterate one other thing, which is they cannot move public policy until they first move the narrative and the window on that.

00:25:47.000 Maybe that was one of the reasons why they put up Justice Jackson or Judge Jackson, soon to be Justice Jackson.

00:25:55.000 And now Jackson says that we need to have sympathy to the pedophiles.

00:26:00.000 Josh Hawley responds.

00:26:04.000 And then Dick Durbin comes out and says, look, if you want to go view images of children online, that's what you decide to do.

00:26:13.000 That's what Dick Durbin said very clearly.

00:26:16.000 Western values will tell you that those that cannot protect themselves are still deserving of protection.

00:26:27.000 Why?

00:26:28.000 Because we are image bearers, all made in the image of God.

00:26:31.000 We are not cells.

00:26:33.000 We're not a mistake.

00:26:35.000 If humanity is designed, then it would be rational to protect the designed.

00:26:42.000 If humanity was a mistake and a roll of dice, what's the rational argument to protect that?

00:26:49.000 It's like protecting the outcome of a bingo game.

00:26:54.000 And if you remove this idea of objective reality of where morals come from, well, then torture.

00:27:06.000 Why would that be wrong?

00:27:08.000 A value we take for granted in America that is now under attack, obviously, in California, already done in Colorado, where abortion is okay up until the very moment before birth.

00:27:18.000 That's okay.

00:27:19.000 That is a Colorado value now.

00:27:22.000 I know a lot of amazing Coloradans that disagree, but that's law in Colorado.

00:27:28.000 Same can be said all the way up post-birth in Maryland is we believe in the West, and we always have, and we've embodied this the best to our ability, the strong have a moral obligation to protect the weak.

00:27:47.000 Where in other countries, Iran, China, with a different moral system or the kind of technocratic social credit score system, Maoist-based system that is coming, is they believe the strong should crush the weak.

00:28:06.000 That if you have power, you crush the people that are under you.

00:28:10.000 In other countries, the strong have a moral obligation to crush the weak, in Islamic theocratic dictatorships, in atheistic countries across the world, in North Korea.

00:28:21.000 If you're in charge, you better not let the weak ever challenge you.

00:28:24.000 So when the World Economic Forum and Klaus Schwab are saying, well, we need to, we need to, they're not saying we need to, but we believe that Western values will be under attack, and they criticize Western values.

00:28:35.000 What are they really saying?

00:28:35.000 They said, we need to change the paradigm of people with power protecting those that don't have.

00:28:41.000 They want to extract value from the weak, force them into compliance.

00:28:47.000 They are pawns in their collective whole, and this all ties together.

00:28:51.000 How do you treat the innocent?

00:28:54.000 How do you treat the four-year-old that has not yet seen the horrors of the world?

00:28:59.000 The answer in other countries is just a clump of cells.

00:29:06.000 There's nothing special about the innocent. 0.74

00:29:08.000 In fact, that child can end up being strong one day, so I better crush that child.

00:29:14.000 Does the left even believe in innocence?

00:29:16.000 They don't.

00:29:16.000 In fact, there's been video after video of people saying, oh, you have no idea how kinky your six-year-old is.

00:29:22.000 Professors say that, and pedophilia advocates say that.

00:29:27.000 All this is happening simultaneously as you remove absolute truth, you descend into moral chaos.

00:29:33.000 Most churches are silent on this, by the way, outside of our great friends of Greg Farrington and Jack Kibbs and Rob McCoy and the Barnetts in Phoenix and Steve Smotherman and the Maxwells and many others.

00:29:45.000 But a lot of churches are silent on this.

00:29:48.000 As in California, they are now going to legalize infanticide.

00:29:53.000 I hope not. 1.00

00:29:54.000 I hope it gets killed. 1.00

00:29:55.000 I hope we can make the bill die after committee and die on the floor. 0.99

00:30:02.000 These fights matter a lot, and they're all connected.

00:30:06.000 For innocence to be a real concept, you must believe in the goodness of purity and sexual decency.

00:30:12.000 Let the little children come to me.

00:30:16.000 And there was a warning embedded in that.

00:30:19.000 And our society is saying, innocence of children?

00:30:23.000 It's just a clump of cells.

00:30:26.000 Okay, there's some controversy with Tom Cotton and Katanji Brown Jackson, which segues into what we're talking about here.

00:30:33.000 Let's go to Cut 75.

00:30:34.000 You know, the last Judge Jackson left the Supreme Court to go to Nuremberg and prosecute the case against the Nazis.

00:30:42.000 This Judge Jackson might have gone there to defend them. 0.99

00:30:46.000 He's exactly right. 0.85

00:30:48.000 Tom Cotton is under huge attack for saying this, but Katanji Brown Jackson defended Gitmo terrorists.

00:30:53.000 Katanji Brown Jackson sought lenient sentencing for pedophiles.

00:31:00.000 Next clip, 76.

00:31:03.000 Insurrectionist aficionado Tom Cotton is the last person who gets to say that.

00:31:08.000 First of all, he needs to keep Judge Jackson's name out his mouth.

00:31:11.000 Tom Cotton, in fact, is the person not doing the things to prosecute the people who actually ran a coup against this country and this government.

00:31:20.000 He is the sympathizer to fascism, not Katanji Brown Jackson.

00:31:25.000 Boy, Stacey Abrams is really angry in that clip. 1.00

00:31:29.000 That's a joke.

00:31:31.000 What's that guy's name?

00:31:32.000 Ellie Mistall. 1.00

00:31:34.000 Getting really fired up.

00:31:36.000 Yeah, I love when they always say that.

00:31:37.000 Keep their name out of your mouth.

00:31:40.000 Give me a break.

00:31:40.000 No, Tom Cotton is spot on, by the way.

00:31:43.000 Tom Cotton is exactly right. 0.97

00:31:46.000 Tom Cotton saying that Katanji Brown Jackson would willingly go to defend the Nazis at Nuremberg. 0.88

00:31:54.000 Oh, yeah, she would. 1.00

00:31:56.000 How do you talk about defending the gitmoterists? 1.00

00:32:02.000 You don't. 1.00

00:32:03.000 I want to summarize this entire together.

00:32:06.000 If you feel like you are living through kind of this unfolding, this deterioration of Western values, well, you're right.

00:32:16.000 Western values are biblical values.

00:32:19.000 They're the values of the Torah, first and foremost.

00:32:22.000 They're the values of the Pentateuch.

00:32:23.000 They're the values of the whole Bible.

00:32:25.000 They're Christian values.

00:32:26.000 They're the values of the Ten Commandments.

00:32:29.000 They've been worked on, studied, blended antiquity with the Enlightenment and brought in the principles of consent to the governed, biblical.

00:32:37.000 Separation of powers, biblical.

00:32:39.000 Independent judiciary, biblical.

00:32:42.000 And so when you start to remove all that, what are you going to replace it with?

00:32:45.000 Answer, there's not a lot of options.

00:32:48.000 You have to choose.

00:32:49.000 Do you want a society where the strong protect the weak or a society where the strong crush the weak?

00:32:54.000 Do you want a society where the few rule the many or many rule the few?

00:32:58.000 These are very basic questions that a society has to answer.

00:33:02.000 And when you discard it and when you just cast it aside and you remove a transcendent order and you say, ah, no, no, no, this is just material.

00:33:11.000 No, there is a spiritual battle at play here.

00:33:14.000 You know my thoughts on that.

00:33:15.000 We've talked about it at great length.

00:33:16.000 It's never been more clear that there are spiritual ramifications to all of this.

00:33:21.000 What is life?

00:33:22.000 When does it begin? 0.99

00:33:23.000 What is a woman? 1.00

00:33:24.000 The confusion is not a mistake. 0.86

00:33:26.000 The confusion is a strategy.

00:33:29.000 But what's never been more clear is that they want to confuse you.

00:33:33.000 They want to have you in a state of perpetual hysteria.

00:33:36.000 You're easier to control that way.

00:33:39.000 And if there's never been a more clear sign, I pray, and I don't know, maybe we could agree that children that are seven days old shouldn't be murdered.

00:33:49.000 But I suppose that's controversial.

00:33:51.000 Why? 0.73

00:33:51.000 Because we can't agree what a woman is. 0.73

00:33:53.000 You can't agree on the basic things. 1.00

00:33:55.000 Your entire society is going to fall apart.
