00:00:00.700 How would you describe today's show, Stu?
00:00:03.840 Quite the adventure.
00:00:05.700 I would say quite the adventure.
00:00:08.280 We had some debate reaction early on, and a lot of passion there, for various reasons,
00:00:13.560 mostly about how terrible it was.
00:00:15.800 Then we talked to a father who had his kids stolen from him by basically...
00:00:22.800 The state.
00:00:23.220 The state.
00:00:25.460 We...
00:00:26.020 And went to prison for it.
00:00:27.320 Went to prison because he wouldn't abide by a gag order, nor would I.
00:00:31.820 Nor would I.
00:00:32.080 If I were in his situation, nor would I.
00:00:34.000 Nor would any, I think, good parent.
00:00:35.940 No.
00:00:36.560 And then we also talked to a family that, honestly, has been kind of throughout the history of the show.
00:00:42.620 I'm going back years and years and years and years and years.
00:00:45.060 A family from Germany who came here because they were getting persecuted for their desire to homeschool their children
00:00:52.980 and not have them taught nonsense.
00:00:55.580 And that's illegal, apparently, in Germany.
00:00:58.340 So they were brought here.
00:00:59.800 We went through a terrible thing to keep them here back in the day.
00:01:03.220 But they came the right way.
00:01:04.140 But they came the right way.
00:01:05.560 And they are upstanding citizens, good citizens.
00:01:08.180 And now, years and years later, in what seems like an act of revenge by the government,
00:01:15.280 they are now being tossed out.
00:01:18.280 I think today's show is a good example of me coming the closest to losing my mind.
00:01:25.740 You almost...
00:01:26.820 The end of the show, you almost walked out.
00:01:30.520 I was surprised you stayed, honestly.
00:01:32.340 I'm a professional.
00:01:35.720 Well, that's somewhat true.
00:01:38.460 But also, the only thing that could keep you here was meatball.
00:01:43.800 And we talked about meatball at the end.
00:01:45.280 An amazing story of just one of the dumbest women. 1.00
00:01:50.640 Or was she?
00:01:51.940 Or has she been trained very, very well?
00:01:54.160 Or poorly.
00:01:54.840 All this and so much more.
00:01:57.160 Brought to you in part by Relief Factor.
00:01:59.520 Look, you're in pain.
00:02:00.960 Get out of pain.
00:02:02.000 Oh, yeah.
00:02:02.560 For you to say...
00:02:03.520 No, it's not easy for me to say.
00:02:04.860 I was in pain for a long, long time.
00:02:07.720 Excruciating, agonizing pain.
00:02:09.680 I couldn't use my hands most of the time.
00:02:11.900 My hands would be in so much pain and cramp up.
00:02:15.120 And, I mean, we had signals for the camera people when I would be on TV.
00:02:21.120 Going back to the Fox days.
00:02:22.460 You got to take it, take the picture.
00:02:25.340 Either get it off of me or take it from the shoulders up.
00:02:28.120 Because my hands are going to start doing things that I don't want anybody to see.
00:02:31.620 That's how bad it was.
00:02:33.740 I started taking Relief Factor after trying everything else.
00:02:37.320 I can paint today.
00:02:38.740 I can play the piano today.
00:02:40.800 I got my life back.
00:02:41.860 Just try it.
00:02:42.600 70% of the people who try it go on to order more month after month.
00:02:46.540 It's a 1995 three-week quick start.
00:02:49.080 See if it works.
00:02:49.860 If it's not working in three weeks, it's probably not going to work for you.
00:02:52.780 800-4-RELIEF.
00:02:54.720 800-4-RELIEF or ReliefFactor.com
00:02:57.440 You're listening to
00:03:07.120 The Best of the Glenn Beck Program.
00:03:09.920 I love the primary season.
00:03:16.560 Oh, as we say, primary season is the dumbest season.
00:03:20.100 So everyone hates everyone.
00:03:21.640 Everyone thinks everything you say is some secret signal against whoever you want to vote for.
00:03:27.180 That's where we are in primary season.
00:03:29.100 Can I tell you, if you went to, like, I don't know, maybe if you had to debate your way in to be homecoming king and queen and prince and princess at, like, let's say Beverly Hills High, I think that's kind of the debate that I saw last night.
00:03:53.240 A bunch of privileged people on the stage, all yelling, all talking over each other, not stopping, no reason, all looking at, like, one of the journalists at the same time just talking.
00:04:08.840 Shut up! 1.00
00:04:11.240 All of you, shut up!
00:04:14.380 My gosh, it was such a waste of time and such an insult.
00:04:19.400 The biggest loser last night was Fox.
00:04:22.200 That was disgusting.
00:04:26.360 And I'm doing a TV show tonight you don't want to miss.
00:04:29.660 We're going to be talking about, I think Fox is dead.
00:04:34.180 I think the GOP is dead.
00:04:36.760 I think it's dead.
00:04:37.800 Dead.
00:04:39.600 GOP is the one that picked Fox and Univision to host that thing.
00:04:46.580 Why?
00:04:47.240 Why?
00:04:47.720 Why would they do that?
00:04:48.860 Why?
00:04:49.600 It was Fox Business News.
00:04:51.160 Do you know how many people watch Fox Business News?
00:04:53.840 Like, 12.
00:04:55.320 And many of them are on the second floor of the Fox building.
00:04:59.020 What are you doing?
00:05:00.560 And then you put Univision on with Fox?
00:05:04.620 I mean, I understand NBC Univision because it's the same crap.
00:05:09.840 Oh, my gosh.
00:05:10.560 I couldn't.
00:05:11.560 They lost control of that debate within 10 minutes.
00:05:15.580 That was rough.
00:05:16.100 I mean, I guess the theory here is that they don't want to give debates to MSNBC and CNN.
00:05:20.380 So they're like, well, who else do we have?
00:05:22.040 I don't know.
00:05:23.180 Right.
00:05:23.800 I know what you're going to say.
00:05:25.220 Yeah.
00:05:25.660 Like, maybe the Blaze?
00:05:27.120 Maybe the Blaze.
00:05:27.940 Maybe you give it to the Blaze Daily Wire and we do it together.
00:05:31.960 Yeah.
00:05:32.440 Maybe.
00:05:32.600 What are you doing, GOP?
00:05:35.180 Instead, they're like, well, the only ones who don't totally hate us are Fox and Fox Business.
00:05:40.140 So let's go there over and over and over again.
00:05:41.820 Oh, my gosh.
00:05:42.060 It was horrible.
00:05:43.020 And, like, I don't.
00:05:44.620 Like, I like Dana Perino.
00:05:46.200 I think she.
00:05:46.580 I don't think it was necessarily the moderators because it was like, let's at some point we
00:05:54.880 are conservatives here, right?
00:05:57.280 Maybe we should blame the people for their actions.
00:05:59.500 And the people on stage all made the same decision that I wasn't aggressive enough.
00:06:04.780 I need to talk.
00:06:05.380 No, no.
00:06:06.120 And they all talked.
00:06:06.840 Except for one.
00:06:07.920 Except for one.
00:06:09.700 Two.
00:06:10.260 I would say two.
00:06:10.780 I would say Vivek went the opposite way.
00:06:14.700 Oh, it's Mr. Vivek's back in town.
00:06:18.220 Yeah, hello.
00:06:18.860 The primary guy sees that Vivek is getting a compliment.
00:06:22.140 He must be a Vivek, a secret agent.
00:06:25.580 Right.
00:06:26.040 Okay, so.
00:06:26.760 I thought DeSantis was more aggressive, but generally speaking, kept within the lines.
00:06:32.500 I think so, too.
00:06:33.400 I think that's why I said he, out of all that appeared, and the only reason why the big winner
00:06:38.540 was Donald Trump last night, was because he didn't have any of the stink on him.
00:06:44.300 If he would have been there, it would have been worse.
00:06:46.620 Yeah.
00:06:46.860 It would have been worse.
00:06:47.980 But he wasn't there.
00:06:49.940 He made the right decision.
00:06:51.560 He didn't show up.
00:06:52.460 And that thing devolved into a 12-year-old food fight.
00:06:56.680 It was awful.
00:06:57.980 Awful.
00:06:58.560 Awful.
00:06:59.020 I mean, there was minutes at a time.
00:07:02.120 Minutes.
00:07:02.340 When three or four of them were talking.
00:07:04.400 There was one time I think all seven of them were talking.
00:07:07.940 Oh, gosh.
00:07:08.680 And it was like, what are you, what is this?
00:07:11.320 What is this?
00:07:11.860 I mean, are we America?
00:07:13.720 This is the lowest low I think we've ever hit in politics.
00:07:19.000 Thank you.
00:07:19.500 Aw, wait a minute.
00:07:20.160 No, no, no.
00:07:20.620 I mean, in debates.
00:07:22.200 In debates.
00:07:22.820 Not in politics.
00:07:23.300 I was going to say, that's a real.
00:07:24.480 No, in debates.
00:07:25.440 This was shameful.
00:07:27.560 It was shameful.
00:07:28.420 Shameful.
00:07:28.660 And, you know, I get it.
00:07:30.660 Like, Tim Scott, the criticism of him in debate number one is he basically didn't say
00:07:35.880 anything.
00:07:36.400 So, right out the gate, Tim Scott, every single question, jumping in, raising his hand, saying,
00:07:41.740 I understand he's trying to solve a specific problem.
00:07:44.200 He's not going to win the presidency if he doesn't solve it.
00:07:46.820 I get why he does that.
00:07:48.160 Doug Burgum.
00:07:49.400 No one knows who Doug Burgum is.
00:07:50.880 He is.
00:07:51.460 First of all, let me just say this.
00:07:53.400 Every time the camera went to him, it was like, oh, my gosh.
00:07:58.240 I mean, he's a Muppet.
00:07:59.480 He doesn't.
00:08:01.040 He is.
00:08:02.200 He's like an avatar or a cartoon.
00:08:06.300 I don't know.
00:08:07.000 You mean like his just appearance?
00:08:08.220 His appearance.
00:08:09.260 You're like, oh, God.
00:08:10.360 What can warn us?
00:08:12.780 Slide into him from Chris Christie or something.
00:08:15.740 My gosh.
00:08:16.200 Wow.
00:08:16.580 That's the biggest Chris Christie compliment I think ever his appearance has ever received.
00:08:20.320 Ever, ever received.
00:08:21.600 And he is.
00:08:22.620 Oh, my gosh.
00:08:24.100 Honestly, like, look, policy-wise is another story as far as the actual debate goes.
00:08:31.140 And he was, I don't even think he was near the bottom of it.
00:08:34.560 Like, at least he would say things that were kind of coherent.
00:08:38.780 And he wasn't always talking over people.
00:08:41.400 I mean, I'm just saying as far as in the debate rules, he has really bad planned one-liners that he thinks are going to be great.
00:08:48.620 Oh, I don't.
00:08:49.160 Cut 18.
00:08:49.900 I don't know what you're talking about.
00:08:51.400 And I want to look at that camera right now and tell you, Donald, I know you're watching.
00:08:56.000 You can't help yourself.
00:08:57.520 I know you're watching.
00:08:58.860 Okay?
00:08:59.360 And you're not here tonight, not because of polls and not because of your indictments.
00:09:04.480 You're not here tonight because you're afraid of being on this stage and defending your record.
00:09:09.780 You're ducking these things.
00:09:11.440 And let me tell you what's going to happen.
00:09:12.960 You keep doing that, no one up here is going to call you Donald Trump anymore.
00:09:16.080 We're going to call you Donald Duck.
00:09:17.180 He really wanted that one to land.
00:09:22.680 He practiced that.
00:09:23.860 Oh, my gosh.
00:09:24.840 That is so awful.
00:09:26.460 That was like the same way Chris Christie felt going to ask a girl to a prom is how he felt right there.
00:09:32.580 And she just said no to his face.
00:09:35.160 It was so sad.
00:09:36.600 You know, if he wasn't Chris Christie, he didn't have the corruption thing, which might work for him now, didn't have the corruption thing in the back.
00:09:46.340 If he had completely different policies, he could have cut through last night because he can command the stage.
00:09:55.460 Look, again, now I'm going to be, oh, you love Chris Christie.
00:09:58.920 But like Christie's good at this.
00:10:01.600 Yes, he's good at this.
00:10:02.440 Again, that was horrible and everything.
00:10:04.280 That was a horrible moment.
00:10:05.400 He really.
00:10:07.040 Leading up to it, like that line is so bad at the at the end of it.
00:10:12.020 But the rest of it is, I think, fair.
00:10:14.340 Like, I think criticizing Donald Trump for not being there is totally fair.
00:10:18.040 I do, too.
00:10:18.460 If I said this last night, I was thinking of you.
00:10:21.980 Glenn Beck runs for president.
00:10:23.300 I'm in a position where I would be the guy behind the stage.
00:10:27.700 You're up by 40 points.
00:10:29.420 And I and you go, what should we do with this debate?
00:10:31.000 I'd be like, what are you nuts?
00:10:32.260 Don't go near that debate.
00:10:33.560 That's what I would be telling you.
00:10:34.380 Right.
00:10:34.780 You're up by 40 points.
00:10:36.040 Stay away.
00:10:36.580 I want you to win.
00:10:37.720 That is the whole way I would talk to you about it as your advisor.
00:10:41.620 And if I were advisor for Donald Trump and he was up like that, I'd be saying the same
00:10:44.920 thing.
00:10:45.080 Yeah.
00:10:45.420 I wanted him there.
00:10:47.120 I have questions for Donald Trump.
00:10:49.780 But and I think they should be heard in a debate.
00:10:52.960 But I'm not advising him to be in that.
00:10:55.280 That's crazy.
00:10:56.160 He won last night.
00:10:57.880 Right.
00:10:58.080 Because of that.
00:10:58.820 By just not showing up, I'd say, you know, and that's probably the story for the first
00:11:02.280 two debates.
00:11:02.960 Right.
00:11:03.280 Like every day that passes in a race where the gap is 40 points, that there isn't a
00:11:09.640 breakout performance is a win for Donald Trump.
00:11:12.020 Right.
00:11:12.960 He's up by a lot.
00:11:14.080 So he doesn't need his own breakout performance.
00:11:16.980 He doesn't need to knock down Vivek Ramaswamy or Ronda Sanders or Nikki Haley.
00:11:22.260 He just needs to keep surviving.
00:11:23.740 So totally understand it from his perspective when you're talking about winning.
00:11:28.260 You know, there's a part of me.
00:11:29.260 You go back to, you know, Ted Williams.
00:11:32.040 This is going to give you a sports reference, Glenn.
00:11:33.300 Prepare yourself.
00:11:34.060 Ted Williams was hitting what?
00:11:35.100 4-0-1.
00:11:36.160 Yeah, he was a great boxer.
00:11:37.920 Going into the last day of the season.
00:11:40.180 And the manager offered to let him sit and just sit it out.
00:11:44.500 You're hitting 4-0-1.
00:11:45.380 It's going to be an amazing achievement.
00:11:46.620 Don't go.
00:11:47.140 What if you go 0-3?
00:11:48.140 You might be under 400.
00:11:48.960 Instead, he played and he went, I think, 3-for-5 and he wound up hitting 4-0-3.
00:11:54.940 Like, I want a little bit of that from Trump.
00:11:56.840 I mean, the whole reason why.
00:11:57.560 But all you need is three rounds and five and you're.
00:12:00.800 No, you're making, your points are going to be good on this, but I'm just going to hold
00:12:04.100 off for one second on them.
00:12:06.320 Your sports follow-ups are going to be great.
00:12:08.440 Okay, good.
00:12:08.840 All right.
00:12:09.320 But the point is like, what we, you know, if you look at Donald Trump, what is it, what
00:12:13.840 do Republican voters love about Donald Trump?
00:12:15.940 How many times did they say it?
00:12:17.180 Because he fights.
00:12:18.620 Right?
00:12:19.120 This isn't him fighting.
00:12:20.380 This is him being like, well, it's smart for me to avoid the fight.
00:12:23.280 And I, I, I would like him to be there.
00:12:25.460 And I think it was fair for both DeSantis and Christie to hit him on that.
00:12:29.920 How Christie did it was just so cringeworthy.
00:12:33.740 Correct.
00:12:34.160 It was unbelievable.
00:12:34.800 And I think DeSantis, the way he did it, I thought was good.
00:12:38.160 I thought that was good.
00:12:38.740 I thought that was good.
00:12:39.340 It wasn't, it wasn't hatred towards Trump.
00:12:41.100 It wasn't, you're the, Trump is the worst guy in the world.
00:12:43.320 But hey, you know, like if he wants your votes, he should show up to these things.
00:12:47.240 And I think that's a fair criticism.
00:12:48.580 I don't know that, I wouldn't listen to it if I was Trump's advisor.
00:12:51.880 If Donald Trump would have been there last night, every would have, everyone would have
00:12:56.600 in the press blamed him for the chaos.
00:12:59.180 It shows, you don't need Donald Trump for the chaos.
00:13:02.920 Oh no.
00:13:03.300 That, that chaos was there all by itself.
00:13:06.640 All by itself.
00:13:07.560 It was a sense of desperation.
00:13:08.700 Was it not Glenn?
00:13:09.660 These people, they're all looking here.
00:13:11.160 They're all saying, look, we're down by 40 and 50 points.
00:13:14.100 We can't break out of this.
00:13:15.580 I mean, and people were talking about how well Nikki Haley did last time.
00:13:18.320 She went from like two to 7%. 0.99
00:13:20.280 You know, like this is the game that's being played here.
00:13:23.720 They're all in a, getting an increasing amount of desperation.
00:13:27.340 They need money, most of them.
00:13:29.760 And so they all decided at the same time, what I need to do is just talk through the moderators.
00:13:34.420 And sometimes that's successful.
00:13:35.780 We've seen Trump do it successfully.
00:13:37.060 We've seen Newt Gingrich do it successfully in previous campaigns.
00:13:39.820 Yeah, but they don't all do it.
00:13:41.700 They all did it.
00:13:42.000 They all made the same decision on the same day.
00:13:44.500 And I feel bad for Ramaswamy because he's the only guy that went the other way.
00:13:50.140 Yeah, he did.
00:13:50.640 He was the only guy that said, I mean, and Scott smashed him on it.
00:13:55.980 I mean, just, and it was a great moment for Scott.
00:13:59.880 Which one?
00:14:00.740 When Ramaswamy said, look, we're all decent people here.
00:14:04.900 We're all decent people.
00:14:05.980 Oh yeah, yes.
00:14:06.520 And he tried to offer a fig leaf to everybody or an olive branch.
00:14:10.980 I don't know why you'd hand a fig leaf.
00:14:12.180 Some fruit or vegetable.
00:14:12.880 Yes, he gives them, he throws an avocado their way.
00:14:16.680 Right, yeah.
00:14:17.200 And they said, fig leaf, like they were all naked.
00:14:22.920 Oh, I'm sorry.
00:14:25.160 I said, Chris Christie was on stage.
00:14:26.920 Watch your mouth.
00:14:27.860 So he tries to be kind and reverse because he was too hostile.
00:14:34.540 He was too aggressive last time.
00:14:35.520 Last time.
00:14:36.140 So he learns his lesson and he decides, you know what?
00:14:38.620 I'm going to go this way.
00:14:39.840 And they just slit his throat.
00:14:41.920 Yeah, they did.
00:14:42.460 He just slit his throat.
00:14:44.040 Scott said, you know, you called us all bought and paid for last time.
00:14:47.860 Which I, by the way, for all the people saying we're Vivek people.
00:14:52.900 We both said it was wrong.
00:14:53.880 I thought that was wrong.
00:14:54.620 I thought it was a bad moment for Vivek last time.
00:14:57.440 And I thought Scott was fair to hit him on that.
00:15:00.560 Because it was kind of like a blatant flip-flop, right?
00:15:03.600 Like it did seem like he was another person.
00:15:05.440 But he was more Vivek, I thought.
00:15:07.760 Yeah.
00:15:07.880 That's how Vivek has been in interviews with us.
00:15:10.300 Yeah.
00:15:10.440 He was much more like he was last night.
00:15:12.120 Here's Cut 17.
00:15:14.520 This is Scott.
00:15:15.560 When we have a conversation about the things that are happening on this stage, we think
00:15:19.360 about the fact that Vivek just said we were all good people.
00:15:21.900 And I appreciate that.
00:15:22.900 Because last debate, he said we were all bought and paid for.
00:15:26.180 And I thought about that for a little while and said, you know, I can't imagine how you
00:15:30.760 could say that knowing that you were just in business with the Chinese Communist Party
00:15:36.300 and the same people that funded Hunter Biden millions of dollars was a partner of yours
00:15:42.300 as well.
00:15:43.120 It's not nonsense.
00:15:43.820 So look, I want to respond.
00:15:46.940 These are good people who are tainted by a broken system.
00:15:50.960 And it's not the fault of anybody who's involved.
00:15:53.120 Some of us are tainted by a lot of reasons.
00:15:55.060 Excuse me.
00:15:55.640 Shut up, Tim.
00:15:56.720 Shut up. 0.95
00:15:57.780 Just let the guy talk.
00:16:00.540 What do we get out of this?
00:16:01.500 You know, someone tweeted this, Glenn.
00:16:02.780 And I was thinking of you because you were one of the first people who really started doing
00:16:06.020 these types of interviews.
00:16:07.740 But like, isn't the debate format basically dead?
00:16:11.720 And shouldn't we look more at like the long term pod, long form podcast format for these
00:16:17.340 types of things?
00:16:18.020 Like, wouldn't it be much more interesting to have a few of these guys, maybe two at a
00:16:22.140 time, talking about a specific issue in an hour long format with someone who's conservative
00:16:27.560 and knows the issue well from a conservative perspective?
00:16:30.180 Wouldn't we learn so much more from that about these guys?
00:16:33.760 Because you still have to be quick on your feet, but you actually have time to be able to
00:16:38.360 lay out your ideas and show how much knowledge you have about these things.
00:16:43.300 You just did one with Ron DeSantis.
00:16:45.560 Ron DeSantis!
00:16:46.600 Of course you would do it!
00:16:47.660 No, but you just did one with Ron DeSantis last week.
00:16:50.360 A lengthy interview.
00:16:51.760 What, an hour?
00:16:52.800 Yeah.
00:16:52.940 Where you were able to go through all these things.
00:16:54.920 And like, you get so much more out of that than this nonsense.
00:16:59.520 Oh, I got more out of an interview with all of them.
00:17:03.520 I've done all of them except the Muppet at the end of the stage.
00:17:07.080 Not Chris Christie.
00:17:07.960 Not Chris Christie.
00:17:08.980 I won't.
00:17:09.380 Well, I mean, you're invited, Chris, but.
00:17:12.680 How would you do, Doug?
00:17:13.580 Would you get on that bergamentum train?
00:17:15.500 No, I wouldn't.
00:17:16.840 And it's just a waste of time, gang.
00:17:18.720 Just a waste of time.
00:17:20.340 But, you know, the only one left, really.
00:17:22.360 And I've done interviews, hour-long interviews with Donald Trump, but not since he was, you
00:17:26.840 know, a candidate.
00:17:28.700 And would like to do that.
00:17:30.540 I get more out of that.
00:17:31.960 I got more out of what the Blaze did when we just talked to them for about, what, 30 or
00:17:37.900 40 minutes, one at a time, one right after another.
00:17:41.400 Now it takes some commitment for you, because it took all day.
00:17:45.260 But you want to know who these people are?
00:17:47.440 That's the way to do it.
00:17:48.400 And they just, they either hung themselves or not.
00:17:53.360 Yeah.
00:17:53.560 You didn't see Asa Hutchinson on that stage, did you?
00:17:55.480 No.
00:17:55.840 And there's a good, part of that is because of the way he played to the audience in Iowa.
00:18:00.600 I didn't learn a single thing last night.
00:18:02.520 Not one.
00:18:03.020 That was really bad.
00:18:03.360 Except our republic is just out of control.
00:18:07.020 Just out of control.
00:18:11.880 This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:18:14.460 As we said yesterday, I'm not going to give you this man's name for fear of even more
00:18:20.440 reprisals by his government in British Columbia.
00:18:23.600 I'm just going to call him Dad.
00:18:25.800 Welcome to the program.
00:18:27.260 Welcome back, Dad.
00:18:29.320 Yeah, thank you.
00:18:30.400 Thank you.
00:18:30.880 How are you today?
00:18:31.780 Well, I'm good.
00:18:32.980 I'm hoping you come with some advice and some answers for us because you didn't win the
00:18:42.360 fight.
00:18:42.680 You haven't talked to your daughter now in three years because they gave her a choice, right?
00:18:50.380 They did.
00:18:51.260 I mean, the ruling from the courts back in 2019 was that she had the right to inject herself 1.00
00:18:56.800 with testosterone and pretty much do whatever she wanted to do as if she was an adult. 0.71
00:19:00.520 They took that right away from me.
00:19:04.340 And of course, once that happened, this is where I kind of left off a bit yesterday as
00:19:09.240 I dropped my two lawyers.
00:19:11.240 And I had a choice to make at that point in time.
00:19:15.280 You know, we weren't going to pursue it to the Supreme Court of Canada, but I was sitting
00:19:19.240 on something that was super important that I thought everybody should know, you know.
00:19:23.860 And so I had to decide what to do with that information.
00:19:26.460 Do I follow the courts and continue to be gagged and kind of watch other children get mutilated
00:19:31.740 when I know what I know?
00:19:34.400 And do I have a choice in that way?
00:19:37.660 And I felt that I did.
00:19:38.960 And I didn't feel bound by court orders when the court orders were so harmful to children.
00:19:45.980 And so, you know, I was even talking with some media at that time.
00:19:48.740 And I remember one fellow was saying, you know, this is probably your opportunity to become
00:19:55.920 a leader in this, you know, make a big, bold decision and just move forward.
00:20:02.160 And so I did.
00:20:03.080 I had a lot of people that were telling me to just stay quiet.
00:20:06.340 We'll find another case.
00:20:08.160 We'll figure this out.
00:20:09.960 Maybe we'll get...
00:20:10.740 And I thought, no.
00:20:13.980 And so I did.
00:20:14.540 I broke my...
00:20:15.260 I broke all the gag orders I was under.
00:20:17.760 I went and did a whole bunch of interviews to the point where I wasn't the only one in
00:20:22.780 court at that time.
00:20:24.660 There was media people in court that they were going after.
00:20:29.560 And letters were being sent all over the place telling people to take content down.
00:20:34.840 And in Canada, all the, you know, letters were sent to Google.
00:20:40.160 All Canadian content was removed.
00:20:42.380 You couldn't find the story up here.
00:20:44.540 Anymore.
00:20:46.240 And so, yeah, obviously being brought back into court and, and I didn't stop even in
00:20:53.040 court.
00:20:53.540 It infuriated the courts because I would come in and a new story would be coming out the
00:20:58.080 morning.
00:20:58.400 I'm back in court again.
00:20:59.760 And the judge is like, what's this new thing?
00:21:02.640 And at that time, they also believed I had the power somehow to get the stuff all taken
00:21:08.780 down.
00:21:09.220 And I, and, and at that point I was representing myself and I said, well, you know, the, you
00:21:17.500 know, the, the, the horse is out of the barn, right?
00:21:19.260 You can't, you know, the toothpaste or the toothpaste tube, but yet the expectation was
00:21:23.580 on me that I could put it all back in that somehow I could go back to the pre back when
00:21:28.700 I was being gagged and following the gag orders, but that wasn't going to happen.
00:21:32.200 I mean, the story went essentially around the planet, you know, people wanted to, I don't
00:21:38.500 understand how governments think that they have the right to gag you on, uh, something
00:21:45.460 that is affecting your life in this way that you, that somehow or another, they can tell
00:21:51.940 you, here's the punishment.
00:21:53.920 We disagree with you.
00:21:55.560 And now you can never, ever talk about it.
00:21:59.020 That's insanity, insanity.
00:22:02.580 Well, that's what I thought.
00:22:03.820 I mean, this is their argument is, is they're saying, well, the reason we're doing this is
00:22:07.380 we're protecting your child because you're harming her by telling the story and sharing
00:22:12.500 her medical information is what they said.
00:22:15.440 And so in their minds, but this isn't what it is.
00:22:18.260 They're protecting their agenda, but they don't tell you that part.
00:22:21.740 That's what they're actually doing.
00:22:22.800 But they're pretending they're, they're, they're actually caring about your child.
00:22:26.300 No, they're not.
00:22:27.640 You know, once your child is out of high school, the school doesn't, I mean, the school is
00:22:31.420 gone.
00:22:31.760 The government's gone.
00:22:32.820 They don't care if you stay transgender or not.
00:22:35.140 The pharmaceuticals care, but beyond that, uh, you're on your own.
00:22:40.360 Um, you're only on a pedestal while you're in government sort of care.
00:22:43.660 If you want to call schools that, which it kind of is.
00:22:46.060 And so, uh, yeah, so to me, I thought, well, I'm going to break these
00:22:52.580 gag orders and, but that's why they did it. 1.00
00:22:55.920 They did it to protect the agenda because they knew if, if parents knew, and if anybody
00:23:01.440 knew, you know, generally speaking, you're going to say, why would you sterilize a child?
00:23:06.380 Why are we allowing this to happen?
00:23:08.020 Um, but if you do it behind parents' backs and you intimidate them, which was a tactic.
00:23:16.220 I mean, remember when I broke the egg orders, this was like four or five years ago.
00:23:18.940 It's not even today where things have changed to a great degree from where it was when I
00:23:23.180 did this.
00:23:24.620 Um, and yeah, they would take your job.
00:23:28.160 I mean, I talked to so many parents.
00:23:30.000 They're terrified.
00:23:30.940 They're like, we just go with it.
00:23:33.020 We don't like it, but we'd rather keep our child.
00:23:36.560 And, and of course they play the suicide card, which is, this is the only card that they've
00:23:41.100 got.
00:23:41.940 And it's so much baloney because my daughter even told me, she's like, she's like, dad,
00:23:47.820 I'm going to commit suicide.
00:23:48.600 I said, Oh, no, you're not.
00:23:49.680 And she starts laughing.
00:23:50.620 She's like, no, but she goes, but that's what the doctor tells me to say.
00:23:53.900 She's like, I have to say that.
00:23:55.380 I'm told to do that.
00:23:56.980 That's how I get treatment.
00:23:58.860 So the whole thing is a scam.
00:24:01.380 You spent 70 days would have been a lot longer, but the, uh, court of appeals turn things around.
00:24:08.760 So you said you spent 70 days in, in prison.
00:24:12.760 Uh, I did.
00:24:13.860 You can, they're, this, they're still thinking the general, uh, the attorney general of Canada
00:24:19.480 could appeal the decision they have until early October, uh, to appeal it and put you back
00:24:25.300 in prison.
00:24:27.040 Um, that's right.
00:24:28.020 The attorney general of British Columbia.
00:24:29.580 Yeah.
00:24:30.120 So you can push it into federal Supreme court of Canada.
00:24:33.600 Do you think that's going to happen?
00:24:36.120 I haven't heard anything.
00:24:38.160 You know, what's, what's you've, again, this is the first in Canada is that they took a civil
00:24:43.080 case and turned it into a criminal case. 0.57
00:24:44.860 So what happened was is, as I mentioned in my, my previous, my first peace court of appeal
00:24:51.880 ruling, they took it from a criminal matter down to a civil matter.
00:24:54.980 Well, the judge deliberately on his own, not even under request from the lawyers on who
00:25:01.600 were opposing me, because he asked him, he goes, would you like to turn this into a criminal
00:25:05.800 contempt of court case?
00:25:07.200 And they said, no.
00:25:08.760 And he says, well, what does, what does, you know, my daughter say?
00:25:13.440 And that lawyer said, no, she's also not asking for that to happen. 0.96
00:25:18.060 But then the judge handed it over to prosecution services anyways.
00:25:21.100 And they turned the civil case into a criminal case.
00:25:23.740 So this is how hard the government is coming after me.
00:25:26.720 So when you ask, will they take this to the Supreme court of Canada?
00:25:29.900 I wouldn't be surprised.
00:25:31.860 In case you missed that, where you can go and help him fight his legal battle on this,
00:25:36.320 go get funding.com.
00:25:38.380 Okay.
00:25:38.980 So what did you, first of all, do you regret taking this on at all?
00:25:45.860 You know, in hindsight, looking back, I don't.
00:25:48.240 People have often asked me that question and I don't regret it because I look at all the
00:25:52.220 change, you know, it may have been a more difficult situation if, you know, nothing had
00:25:56.800 changed at all.
00:25:57.980 And I was just beating my head against the wall.
00:25:59.920 But clearly, you know, I mean, you know what's going on in the U.S.
00:26:03.080 I mean, there are some provinces now up in Canada that are starting to push back on this
00:26:07.260 stuff.
00:26:07.640 Right.
00:26:07.940 And so I'm glad to see what I'm seeing.
00:26:09.720 You know, you know, I look at it this way and of course, I don't expect everyone to
00:26:14.920 do what I did.
00:26:15.440 I mean, this is a little bit of a, of a one, something that, yeah, you don't have that
00:26:21.020 expectation, but you know, in Canada, I look at this trifecta of death.
00:26:25.100 We have abortion, sterilization, and euthanasia.
00:26:27.960 They're going to start euthanizing kids as young as 12 in this country very soon.
00:26:32.500 And that, by the way, for those of you who don't know, that's not hyperbole.
00:26:36.440 That is actually happening.
00:26:37.840 And the kids can just say, I'm depressed and the doctor can then say, I can help you
00:26:44.300 with that death if you'd like as early as 12.
00:26:48.780 Anyway, go ahead.
00:26:49.660 That's right.
00:26:51.120 Yeah.
00:26:51.580 So as I'm getting, as parents now are finding out after the fact that the kids are being
00:26:55.580 sterilized, parents are going to get a call saying, yeah, your child's at the funeral
00:26:58.760 home.
00:26:59.060 And, you know, they did it under mature consent.
00:27:03.620 But yeah, no.
00:27:04.620 So what I, what I sort of came up with is what I call the trifecta of, of pushing back.
00:27:10.160 And, and that to me was, you know, get into the courts, fight in the courts, you know, get
00:27:15.200 into the media, get attention out because it's about educating people, making people aware.
00:27:19.600 And, and last in the hardest one, which is finally starting to happen here.
00:27:23.240 And it's been happening in many States is legislation, get stuff passed.
00:27:26.760 And that's the tip, that's the most difficult one, but it's starting to happen as well.
00:27:31.460 And so, you know, I say, you know, I was looking at the numbers the other day and we have just
00:27:37.800 under, I think 8 billion people in the world.
00:27:40.660 And so I thought, you know, I'm just going to add up, you know, the Catholics, the Protestants, 0.76
00:27:44.120 the Muslims, the Jewish, and it's well over 4 billion.
00:27:49.300 And I'm thinking if, even if people of faith were true to their beliefs, we wouldn't be in 1.00
00:27:54.460 this mess.
00:27:54.980 Like, how is the minority pushing us around and why are so many churches even failing 1.00
00:28:01.900 on this matter?
00:28:04.000 And, you know, I always say to people, you know, it's, it's not for us to follow our
00:28:08.560 children into hell.
00:28:09.660 It's for us to pull our children out of hell and back towards heaven.
00:28:13.120 And yet so many parents will just be like, well, I'm just going to live with this.
00:28:17.260 I'm just, I, you know, I don't want my child to not like me.
00:28:19.360 Well, that's not proper parenting.
00:28:21.920 You know, parenting is tough love and you don't just allow your child to do whatever
00:28:25.740 they want to do.
00:28:26.280 But, and so when I say to people, what can you do?
00:28:30.500 Number one is parent, you know, be a proper parent.
00:28:33.460 Don't give into this stuff.
00:28:35.540 To me, that's, that's critical.
00:28:37.440 I mean, this is what they're trying to destroy is your families and the relationships that
00:28:41.080 you have.
00:28:41.520 So your, your daughter is 19, you haven't spoken to her, uh, for three years.
00:28:48.900 Um, last you saw her, she loved you.
00:28:51.420 She shared things with you privately.
00:28:54.240 Um, you had a good relationship.
00:28:56.300 It seems, um, then her and I were close.
00:29:00.520 And so you don't have that relationship.
00:29:03.040 Now, if she comes back to you in, you know, a few years and she says, dad, I'm glad I did
00:29:10.700 that, uh, and I'm a boy now I've taken all the hormones and everything else.
00:29:16.860 Will you, will you use her name that you gave her or will you use the name she is taking?
00:29:27.300 How are you going to deal with that?
00:29:29.720 Yeah, I've, I've thought about it.
00:29:31.100 I never want to speak, you know, in a delusion.
00:29:33.400 Like I will never call my daughter a he ever.
00:29:36.000 I can assure you of that.
00:29:37.560 But, but the approach I, I think I would take is I just won't, I just get around it.
00:29:42.180 I won't use anything.
00:29:43.200 I'll just say you, I'll just be more like first person because I, at the same time, my
00:29:47.500 conscience can't allow me to use a male pronoun for a female, but at the same time, you know,
00:29:54.060 it, it's not even out of respect, I guess, because I don't respect when people do this,
00:29:59.980 but just to avoid, you know, a clash, I suppose I would just say, Hey, you is an example, but
00:30:07.860 yeah, it's a difficult one.
00:30:08.640 Cause I, I talked to many people about it and, uh, and a lot of them will call their
00:30:13.820 daughters he's because that's what they want. 1.00
00:30:16.600 And I think I'm with you.
00:30:18.580 I would call, I would use a name is just a name, you know, Alex can go either way.
00:30:24.620 Um, but, uh, so a name is just a name, but you know, denying the reality.
00:30:29.980 Cause if I go in, if I had to take my daughter into a hospital for something going wrong, I
00:30:37.160 wouldn't say no, uh, that's a boy.
00:30:40.040 I would immediately say this, a girl she's, she's transitioned, uh, but she's, she's a
00:30:47.780 girl.
00:30:48.000 Cause that would be important to know for the doctors.
00:30:50.980 You can never deny that.
00:30:52.440 Never.
00:30:54.380 No.
00:30:54.880 And that's what's silly right now is that, you know, one thing that my daughter was allowed
00:30:57.980 to do back in 2019 was she was allowed to, uh, change her vital statistics with the, 0.98
00:31:03.760 with the federal government.
00:31:05.300 That's insane.
00:31:06.020 And so what you're seeing is all of a sudden you're seeing in the, in the, in the stats,
00:31:09.580 as you're seeing, uh, you know, girls that have, you know, that only men can have like
00:31:15.580 prostate cancer.
00:31:16.280 Like it's ridiculous stuff, but what is the one thing that you would give advice on not
00:31:25.020 doing the thing that you are glad you didn't do or wish you hadn't have done?
00:31:32.640 Well, there's, I look at, I see two camps of people.
00:31:35.900 I see those that sort of follow, I would call it the Martin Luther King jr model.
00:31:40.120 And those that kind of follow the Malcolm X model.
00:31:42.180 I tend to be in the Martin Luther King jr.
00:31:44.560 Uh, club in that regards.
00:31:47.020 And what I'll see is I'll see people.
00:31:50.240 And again, this gets trendy cause it's good for clicks as well.
00:31:54.080 Right.
00:31:54.300 You'll see people going in and just stirring it up, like just getting in people's faces
00:31:59.020 and just being very aggressive.
00:32:00.280 Uh, it's both ways, trust me, Antifa and all that.
00:32:03.020 Yeah.
00:32:03.140 I mean, I saw them last Wednesday.
00:32:05.580 Uh, there was a big March, Canadian wide March to, for, for kids to save kids.
00:32:11.140 Uh, and sometimes it's just not worth antagonizing.
00:32:13.560 And that way, you know, I think God's accomplished a lot more by going to the courts, doing things
00:32:20.140 that way, then, you know, if I'm deliberately seeking out places where I know the trans collect
00:32:27.440 themselves, like I'm not going to go to a gay bar and start preaching about how much 0.77
00:32:33.680 I don't like transgenderism. 1.00
00:32:35.360 All right.
00:32:35.760 Kids.
00:32:36.000 Let me tell you, I, I have an awful lot of respect for the way you have handled this.
00:32:40.340 I, I can't imagine what it has been like for the last few years or what is still yet
00:32:45.180 to come.
00:32:45.600 Um, this could help put you back in jail, just this interview.
00:32:49.140 And thank you for your courage.
00:32:51.160 If you would like to help him fight, his attorneys are expensive.
00:32:55.100 Go get funding.com.
00:32:56.980 Go get funding.com.
00:32:58.740 Search for BC father fighting medical transitioning.
00:33:02.180 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:33:05.220 All right.
00:33:06.200 Um, Uva, uh, Romike, uh, Romica is the dad.
00:33:11.560 He is also with Kevin Bowden.
00:33:13.380 He is a homeschool legal defense association attorney.
00:33:17.820 Did I get any of the, uh, the story wrong Uva?
00:33:22.980 No, it was all right.
00:33:24.380 Thank you for having me on.
00:33:25.800 Uh, the only thing that was different was wrong.
00:33:28.140 The initial day when we are here when we came was 2008.
00:33:33.040 We have been here for 15 years now.
00:33:35.760 Yes.
00:33:35.980 Okay.
00:33:36.880 And I remember we talked to you early on, um, because, uh, your case was pending, I think
00:33:44.380 at the time.
00:33:45.620 And you have lived now here for 15 years.
00:33:49.360 You have been good, solid citizens.
00:33:52.040 You, you have jobs.
00:33:54.120 You're not depending on the government.
00:33:55.780 Correct.
00:33:57.140 That's right.
00:33:57.920 Yes.
00:33:58.160 And what happens to you if you go back to Germany?
00:34:02.660 What happens to you and your family?
00:34:05.320 Yes.
00:34:05.900 Since, uh, our two youngest ones that were born here in the United States would come with
00:34:10.900 us, of course.
00:34:11.880 Uh, they are now 10 and 12 years old in fifth and seventh grade.
00:34:15.700 Uh, and we would homeschool them in Germany.
00:34:19.120 We would face the same, as you said earlier, persecution with, uh, custody, losing custody
00:34:25.640 and, um, fines and possibly jail time and, and all of these things that would be, uh, the
00:34:32.900 same as before we left.
00:34:34.360 So, uh, there wouldn't be any way to homeschool in Germany.
00:34:37.840 And why are you homeschooling in Germany?
00:34:40.780 What is, what is this really all about?
00:34:42.940 Well, uh, we, yeah, we have several reasons, uh, but, uh, initially we started homeschooling
00:34:49.360 because our two oldest children who at that time were in school for two, three years, uh,
00:34:54.660 their, their personality changed.
00:34:56.960 They were, they became withdrawn.
00:34:59.120 They developed headaches, stomach aches.
00:35:02.000 Um, doctors couldn't tell that there was any physical reason.
00:35:05.740 It was all because of bullying and, and being feared, having fear to go to school.
00:35:11.000 Uh, and, and then later on, we found out, uh, that also what they were taught at school
00:35:18.680 was diametrically against what we as Christians believed.
00:35:22.860 So, uh, there were so many reasons we didn't want them to go there again.
00:35:27.780 And once we actually started homeschooling, uh, they relaxed there.
00:35:32.360 They became their old selves again, uh, and they are happy children now and are grown up.
00:35:38.880 I mean, these are grown up, have good jobs here.
00:35:41.640 And, uh, so everything turned out well for them.
00:35:44.620 We wanted to do the best for our children, uh, and still want to do that.
00:35:48.580 And so you have two older children that married Americans, uh, and they have, they're being 0.74
00:35:56.360 deported as well.
00:35:58.660 Yes, because, uh, they applied for citizenship, but the paperwork hasn't gone through yet.
00:36:04.380 So it's, it's still in the process.
00:36:06.820 So they are now all included in the deportation order.
00:36:10.620 Okay.
00:36:11.960 So let me talk to your attorney, Kevin, uh, Kevin works for, uh, HSLDA.
00:36:18.560 It is a nonprofit organization making homeschooling possible and making sure they're defending,
00:36:25.460 uh, the homeschoolers.
00:36:27.860 Kevin, what is, what, what is happening here?
00:36:32.160 Well, Glenn, thanks for having us on.
00:36:33.700 I just, I know you've been supporting a family for, for many, many years going all the way
00:36:36.800 back to 2010, 2013.
00:36:38.280 And we appreciate that.
00:36:39.380 You know, we, we don't know what's going on.
00:36:41.880 What we do know is they were told to come back in four weeks and to bring their passports
00:36:45.560 to start self-deportation.
00:36:48.080 We also, of course, know that ICE, you know, has the ability to execute prosecutor, prosecutorial
00:36:54.140 discretion and to not deport the family.
00:36:57.420 So we know what they've been told to do when we know what's in the authority of ICE to do.
00:37:01.680 And for some reason that we don't have yet, they've been told to get ready to go.
00:37:09.380 Uh, huh.
00:37:13.380 All I can think of is, uh, I mean, what would happen if they, they went on vacation and,
00:37:21.480 you know, in Texas and, uh, we're staying at a friend's house.
00:37:26.640 I mean, what would happen?
00:37:27.600 Well, well, you know, we don't know.
00:37:30.100 I mean, they are under this order of supervision that they've been under for the last 10 years,
00:37:33.900 which does require them to show up to, to these ICE meetings.
00:37:36.780 So they've been directed to come back and they have an obligation, uh, per this order
00:37:41.540 of supervision to show up.
00:37:43.820 And, you know, I mean, as you know, I mean, Uwe and Hannah have been law abiding individuals
00:37:48.840 in this country since the day they set foot on American soil.
00:37:52.040 And if you know this family, like I do, they will do nothing but comply with the law because
00:37:57.920 that's the type of character that this family has.
00:37:59.960 I have to tell you, I, I'm, I'm so disgusted by this.
00:38:04.080 This is truly a family that needs asylum. 0.93
00:38:07.800 They don't have the first amendment in Germany.
00:38:11.200 We have it here to protect people.
00:38:14.160 This is what it means to bring in, uh, those who are persecuted, not the hundreds of thousands
00:38:23.420 of, of young men without families coming across our border in the middle of night.
00:38:29.600 They did it the right way.
00:38:31.740 Um, uh, and this, I, I tell you, Kevin, this bothers me so deeply.
00:38:36.900 Um, when I first heard this story a couple of weeks ago, uh, I think I said this on the
00:38:42.000 air, it was a very dark day for me.
00:38:45.040 I, I had a really, Stu will tell you, I had a really hard time going on because I thought
00:38:48.800 if this government with everything that is out of control has the time to take this family
00:38:57.560 down, they have such malice that it, that they're doing things that we can't even imagine
00:39:05.280 if they're coming after this family, that's malice.
00:39:08.820 And it, it is, it is not good for any American.
00:39:14.340 Well, and you know, Glenn, it's inconsistent with the secretary, with the, you know, the
00:39:18.420 Department of Homeland Security's own policies.
00:39:20.080 I mean, there's, there's guidance memorandum from 2021 from Secretary Mayorkas and the three
00:39:25.420 priorities are threat to national security, threat to public safety and threat to border
00:39:30.600 security.
00:39:31.700 So, I mean, you, you tell me where does the Ramica family fall into these three priorities?
00:39:35.980 I mean, they are the lowest of the low in terms of being here in the United States.
00:39:42.020 So, you know, my, my, my thought is just follow your own priorities.
00:39:45.580 They're, they're good priorities, but why are we not putting the resources of the U.S.
00:39:50.140 government to actually enforce the priorities that they have, that they've identified?
00:39:54.680 So what's the plan?
00:39:58.160 Well, we are, we've got a petition we're circulating.
00:40:00.940 We hope to present that to, to President Biden.
00:40:03.160 Oh, geez.
00:40:04.200 We're, there's a cow.
00:40:05.820 We're that we're there.
00:40:08.120 Well, it's, it's to demonstrate broad support.
00:40:10.620 Of course, you know, we, you know, we want to just demonstrate that the country is behind
00:40:14.740 this family.
00:40:16.240 Representative Harshberger has filed a private bill in the House of Representatives.
00:40:19.280 That's pending before the House Judiciary Committee.
00:40:21.660 We would like members of Congress to support that private bill.
00:40:26.080 They can't co-sponsor, but they can support it.
00:40:28.220 And then Jim Jordan in that committee or subcommittee can request a report from ICE with this bill
00:40:34.160 that would effectively be a stay on any removal proceedings.
00:40:39.440 So we're asking the Judiciary Committee, the House Judiciary Committee to request that report.
00:40:44.880 Tell ICE to tell them what's going on.
00:40:46.800 Why are you deporting this family?
00:40:47.840 What's going on?
00:40:48.600 Give us the backstory.
00:40:49.360 Give us the reason.
00:40:50.680 And that would provide some temporary reprieve, at least to the Romica family. 0.99
00:40:54.640 And then long-term, we would love a private bill in the Senate as well.
00:40:59.140 And, you know, those are a couple of the angles that we're looking at right now, which
00:41:03.560 would allow them to stay and to continue their life here as we pursue some longer-term strategies.
00:41:10.380 Okay.
00:41:10.640 So here's, if you're listening now, I mean, if you're not listening, then how are you hearing
00:41:15.600 me?
00:41:15.760 But if you're listening now, I want you to go to HSLDA.org slash Romica, which is R-O-M-E-I-K-E. 0.95
00:41:35.040 R-O-M-E-I-K is how you spell that.
00:41:39.380 H-S-L-D-A dot org slash R-O-M-E-I-K. 1.00
00:41:46.760 And sign this.
00:41:47.880 I am on the website right now, and I am going to sign my name to it.
00:41:51.380 I never sign petitions, but I will sign a petition for this family.
00:41:56.920 This is totally outrageous.
00:41:59.880 What else can we do to help this family?
00:42:04.500 Well, I mean, Uwe can speak as well, but I mean, what he would say also is pray.
00:42:09.420 You know, this is a faith-filled family.
00:42:11.360 They love the Lord.
00:42:12.120 And, you know, as Hannah has told me many, many times, I mean, we appeal to the Most High,
00:42:18.480 and the Most High can take action and supernaturally intervene.
00:42:21.560 And so I know from their hearts, that's something that everyone, regardless of whether they sign,
00:42:26.740 donate, whatever, that's something they can do.
00:42:29.800 Can I invite them?
00:42:31.680 I'm saying this without any knowing of my schedule at all here, so I apologize to my production
00:42:38.080 staff.
00:42:38.480 But I would like to invite the family, especially the kids that were born here and the older
00:42:43.080 kids, I would like to interview them and make sure that people see this family and what
00:42:51.300 you're really all about.
00:42:52.420 Can we get you guys to come in for that?
00:42:56.060 We would love to, yes.
00:42:57.480 Thank you.
00:42:59.840 I am.
00:43:00.880 I have done more apologizing to foreigners for my country in the last five to eight years 1.00
00:43:12.920 that I thought I would never have to do this.
00:43:16.760 We have done so many immoral things.
00:43:20.060 We have done so many things against God.
00:43:23.500 We have so lost our way.
00:43:26.400 We don't even know who we are anymore.
00:43:29.720 And my apologies for what our country is doing to you and your family.
00:43:37.480 This is absolutely immoral.
00:43:40.920 And I thank you for being people that still love our country, despite what we've done.
00:43:49.020 And we love the American people, and it's really a minority that are the bad people. 0.99
00:43:56.520 I think most of the Americans are good people and believing people, Christian people.
00:44:02.820 And we are very thankful for all the support through prayer and people who laughed on us
00:44:08.920 when we first came here.
00:44:10.440 So we feel very blessed to be here.
00:44:13.680 Thank you for your support.
00:44:15.060 You bet.
00:44:16.140 Thank you.
00:44:16.540 We'll be in touch.
00:44:17.360 Guys, thank you so much.
00:44:19.080 It's HSLDA.org slash Romeike, which is Romeike, R-O-M-E-I-K-E. 1.00
00:44:33.160 I have to tell you, this is one I will go and camp outside of their house
00:44:42.960 and surround their house with like-minded, loving, Christian people
00:44:49.080 who will just not break arms on our knees.
00:44:55.560 We just go and kneel around their house in droves, and we lock arms,
00:45:01.920 and we just pray for this family.
00:45:04.180 And if they have to haul me to jail so they can get to that family, so be it.
00:45:11.180 I've had enough.
00:45:13.800 I've had enough.
00:45:14.940 And I don't want to be a part of anything that is violent,
00:45:21.020 is trying to overthrow anything.
00:45:23.440 But there comes a time where we have got to stand or kneel,
00:45:31.420 begging and relying on the protection of divine providence.
00:45:41.180 Na na na na na na!
