00:03:18.660 katie porter um she's a democrat um representative from california uh who ran for senate and lost and

00:03:27.500 now she's running for governor yesterday about this time she was the front runner today she's not 1.00

00:03:35.760 um i just want to play a clip of the interview she did yesterday what do you say to the 40 percent

00:03:46.000 of california voters who you'll need in order to win who voted for trump how would i need them in order

00:03:50.660 to win man well unless you think you're going to get 60 percent of the vote you think you'll get 60

00:03:56.300 all everybody who did not vote for trump will vote for you that's what you're in a general election

00:04:01.020 yes if it is me versus a republican i think that i will win the people who did not vote for trump

00:04:06.880 what if it's you versus another democrat i don't intend that to be the case so how do you not intend

00:04:12.380 that to be the case do you do you are you going to ask them not to run no no i'm saying i'm going to

00:04:16.620 build the support i have the support already in terms of name recognition and so i'm going to do the

00:04:20.940 very best i can to make sure that we get through this primary in a really strong position but let me be

00:04:25.060 clear with you i represented orange county i represented a purple area i have stood on my

00:04:30.080 own two feet and one republican votes before that's not something every candidate in this race can say

00:04:34.800 if you're from a deep blue area if you're from la or you're from oakland you haven't you don't have

00:04:39.820 an experience you just said you don't need those trump voters well you asked me if i needed them to win

00:04:43.640 so you don't think this is unnecessarily argumentative what is your question the the question is the same

00:04:49.780 thing i asked everybody that this is being called the empowering voters to stop trump's power grab

00:04:55.980 every other candidate has answered this question this is not correct and i said i support it so

00:05:00.720 and the question is what do you say to the 40 percent of voters who voted for trump oh i'm happy

00:05:06.100 to say that it's the do you need them to win part that i don't understand i'm happy to answer the

00:05:10.420 question as you have it written and i'll answer it and we've also asked the other candidates do you

00:05:14.520 think you need any of those 40 percent of california voters to win and you're saying no you don't no i'm

00:05:19.440 saying i'm going to try to win every vote i can and what i'm saying to you is that well to those

00:05:25.340 voters okay so so you i don't want to keep doing this i'm going to call it thank you she gets up and

00:05:31.280 walks you're not gonna do the interview with us nope not like this i'm not not with seven follow-ups

00:05:35.500 to every single question you ask oh god every other candidate has i don't care i don't care i want to

00:05:41.160 have a pleasant positive conversation which you ask me about every issue on this list and if every

00:05:46.360 question you're going to make up a follow-up question then we're never going to get there

00:05:49.880 and we're just going to circle around i am an investigative reporter i've never had to do this

00:05:54.360 before ever you've never had to have a conversation to end in order okay but every other candidate has

00:06:01.420 done this i what part of i'm me i'm running for governor because i'm a leader so i am going to make

00:06:08.320 so you're not going to answer questions from reporters okay why don't we go through i will

00:06:12.620 continue to ask follow-up questions because that's my job as a journalist but i will go through and ask

00:06:17.020 these and if you don't want to answer you don't want to answer so nearly every legislative i am i

00:06:22.660 don't want to have an unhappy experience with you and i don't want this all on camera i don't want to

00:06:27.400 have an unhappy experience with you either i would love to continue to ask these questions so that we

00:06:31.380 can show our viewers what every candidate feels about every one of these issues that they care about

00:06:36.520 and redistricting it's a massive issue we're going to do an entire story just on the responses to that

00:06:41.920 question and i've asked everybody the same follow-up question didn't go well wow didn't go well

00:06:50.540 somebody who is she kind of even says it she's never had to deal with follow-up questions before

00:06:57.140 no what what an amazing we sometimes don't appreciate what what a great life it must be on the left

00:07:03.380 oh you just thought about that a lot oh my god you never have to deal with anything no one ever

00:07:09.160 asks you a follow-up no one ever pushes you on anything you just say whatever you want and

00:07:14.620 everyone just walks away as if it was the greatest thing of all time that must be so much fun

00:07:18.620 i mean i mean you know you'd be so intellectually weak oh so i mean you see it there she asked one

00:07:25.300 minor follow-up question that isn't adversary at all and she pulls the plug on the interview i'm not

00:07:31.440 gonna do this i don't want all this on camera well there's a lot that i haven't wanted on camera

00:07:37.860 it didn't stop anybody else all right that's when they get most excited yeah oh i know i know i know

00:07:43.200 that's so bizarre i wasn't she didn't the reporter wasn't even going at her hard it was like hey what

00:07:50.460 do you mean you don't need i mean it's a such a what a layup of a question glenn you know no no

00:07:56.500 offense but it's like do you need the 40 uh of of people to trump voters to win you say well i you

00:08:02.700 know i want to get as many of them as i can and i of course i want to get as many voters i can but

00:08:07.000 i'm going to stand on my principle blah blah blah blah like any any competent politician that's not

00:08:12.500 even a follow-up question it's like do you want more voters that's the hard question she walked out 1.00

00:08:17.960 of an interview for but here's i mean remember who she is remember who she is okay um must we

00:08:24.680 well i mean i think we've just proven everything that they said wasn't true um according to uh people

00:08:33.420 who had worked in her office uh she has made several multiple staffers cry people are generally so

00:08:39.620 anxious uh to even uh to even staff her because if anything goes wrong she flips out on whatever

00:08:46.300 staffer is present she just talks to staffers however she wants one criticism of porter has been

00:08:51.960 that she allegedly is a terrible person according to some accounts abusive and racist uh in december

00:08:59.040 text messages surfaced in which porter scolded a staffer for giving the congresswoman covid one

00:09:05.480 message said she was rage prone and had a tendency to disparage staffers others suggested her expectations

00:09:10.720 were wildly unrealistic one message accused her of making racist comments those are from her staffer

00:09:15.980 and remember those are from 2022 i mean we've seen this and they just buried all of that uh and now

00:09:22.740 you're starting to see it you know when you force people into uncomfortable situations you generally see

00:09:28.980 who they really are um and that wasn't really an uncomfortable that was a normal uh situation for

00:09:36.900 anybody who's right you can't handle that sweetheart you can't handle anything but imagine you're in

00:09:42.280 california she was the front runner yesterday that's who everybody's like yeah i'll probably vote for 0.59

00:09:49.040 her yeah yesterday looking at cal she went on the prediction markets and she was at a sick a 40 chance

00:09:56.000 to win which was double anybody else in the race uh and uh today she's now a slight underdog in the race 0.93

00:10:03.160 from that interview it was that bad now we don't know how the electorate actually responds to it

00:10:08.940 it'll take some time for polling we don't know how much it actually people actually will see it

00:10:12.620 right you know it could run and then go away a lot of conservatives are going to see that today

00:10:17.100 because conservatives are going to play it like crazy will people who might actually vote for her 1.00

00:10:21.740 see it is a totally different question how do we you know we watch nbc cnn we have msnbc on us

00:10:29.700 in front of us all the time um we listen to npr we listen to uh you know the new york times we read

00:10:37.140 the new york times maybe it's time to appreciate us a little bit more just saying we do that for

00:10:40.980 you every day yeah just so you know yeah we do it so you don't have to however we we bring those

00:10:46.880 things up all the time on the air we know where the other side stands they have there are stories

00:10:53.660 that just don't hit that side yeah they have no idea even and they don't listen to anything else 0.99

00:11:02.060 and so there are stories like that that stupid story of uh the judge's house burning down 0.99

00:11:08.600 there are going to be people forever that believe that was a hate crime there is no evidence of 0.99

00:11:16.160 anything of even an arson of arson there's nothing that it was some conservative who did it it was a

00:11:22.560 house that burned down that's all we know now there's no they had to immediately jump to

00:11:28.900 it's a house of a judge that judge stopped donald trump harmeet dylan wrote a really

00:11:36.160 absolutely innocuous uh you know hey this judge just made this ruling we will fight that every

00:11:44.280 way we possibly can that can't stand they they took that and said harmeet dylan was targeting this judge

00:11:51.200 so somebody went on the right and burned that judge's house down none of that is there is no

00:11:59.060 evidence of any of that they don't even know what caused the fire yet and i'll bet you you're going

00:12:05.580 to find out that it wasn't arson it was just a normal fire it was 11 o'clock in the morning

00:12:10.260 it was just a normal fire the house burned down it was a tragedy glad that nobody was hurt well her

00:12:17.160 husband was hurt in it he had some broken bones and stuff as he tried to get out of the house

00:12:21.200 and we wish them the best but you're going to find i think and i'll correct it if we find differently

00:12:28.400 uh it wasn't any of those things but they have reported that now as fact how many people are going to

00:12:38.820 believe that forever i can guarantee you i've members of my own family who will bring that up to me

00:12:45.560 well you say violence is what about burning the judge's house down and i'll have to say that's not

00:12:52.380 true yes it is and they won't believe me because they heard it on nbc they heard it on cnn

00:12:57.780 they heard it in the washington post and so they just believe it there are no facts to back that none

00:13:05.280 now there may be in the future maybe in a couple of days let the process work but there's none

00:13:12.000 these journalists on the left are so unbelievably irresponsible and then because they have

00:13:20.780 zombified their entire base their base will not listen to the other side they there are stories i

00:13:29.680 guarantee you think about how many people are going to believe from here on out that charlie kirk was

00:13:35.500 either killed by a jew or somebody in his own uh camp or uh it it was a left winger it was a donald trump

00:13:43.260 maga killer because that's what they said and they're not listening to you they're not they're 1.00

00:13:49.300 not watching fox they're not getting their news they don't all news from major traditionally trusted

00:13:59.400 sources they watch all of that and they think they're getting a variety well i read the times

00:14:04.740 and the post oh new york post or washington post well not the new york post the washington post there's

00:14:11.540 no variety there no it's the same thing and this is this is how something like you can change your

00:14:18.020 gender with a series of magical words comes into effect because the it's how global warming is real

00:14:24.260 a liberal hears something like the gender stuff for example and they hear it the first time and

00:14:29.160 they just like you react the same way they they what what do you mean you can just become a girl what

00:14:36.040 are you talking about they in their minds react the same way the first time they hear that yes and then

00:14:41.820 they hear it 500 000 other times unchallenged and saying science is settled yep and they're like wow i

00:14:50.380 must have been wrong about that and even if they don't say if they have nothing to back it up

00:14:54.900 like in this burning down the house they just say it over and over and people go well they wouldn't 0.72

00:15:01.420 say that if it wasn't true right and i don't hear anybody else oh except for the crazy conservative so

00:15:08.040 who cares what they're saying so i mean this is why i would you know i have hope again there's a lot of

00:15:14.220 work to be done she's got a difficult job but like i have hope for the barry weiss situation at cbs

00:15:18.500 it would be great if there was just a an organization out of all the ones that exist

00:15:24.100 that just comes out and gives you fair uh you know balanced stuff now i know fox does that but

00:15:30.140 they're seen uh more as a conservative network obviously but their slogan for years was fair

00:15:35.400 and balanced and it was seen by the people who watched it and watched other networks as the most

00:15:40.360 balanced when we were there i remember that yeah i think it was 40 30 or 40 percent of the audience

00:15:46.000 was democrat was democrat yeah i mean so there's plenty of people who who uh who will actually

00:15:51.960 go and read and listen to other things uh but it's not particularly common and i i don't know what

00:15:58.880 might happen is if the uh the coverage by barry weiss over at cbs is quote unquote too fair they will

00:16:06.440 be gone be they'll just they'll just be seen as a right-wing network and be dismissed again that's how

00:16:10.860 they'll make them but and by the way congratulations i was so glad to see glad and everybody else you

00:16:16.740 know lgbtq come out and celebrate uh barry weiss getting that position smashing another glass ceiling

00:16:23.820 another glass ceiling it is amazing what can be done too much fanfare it really was overwhelmed it really

00:16:30.560 was i mean i'm like okay yes it's a first but i mean do we have to make that big of deal out of it

00:16:36.620 yeah or did you hear anything i didn't hear one word about one word of celebration no no one no one

00:16:45.300 came again this is a person uh who founded the free press with her wife it was just bought by a

00:16:56.100 major media organization for nine figures and she's now the editor-in-chief or the yeah is it

00:17:03.240 editor-in-chief of cbs news not a no flowery discussions about her sexual preference no her 0.80

00:17:11.660 sexual orientation and she's not even conservative no she's not she's not she's just fair she describes

00:17:18.540 herself as center left right and this is how desperate we are in the right we're like wait 0.92

00:17:23.660 someone who sent her left and actually it kind of means something with her like she will actually

00:17:28.840 say because sometimes conservatives are right on stuff uh that is we're like fine we're we're not

00:17:33.900 even asking look at look at how desperate we are but look at the other side how authoritarian they are

00:17:40.340 on the other side you can't even say occasionally they get it right no nope never never and we're the

00:17:47.260 authoritarians let me tell you about uh real estate agents i trust if you ever had to do it before you

00:17:54.540 know that buying or selling a home is not a single transaction it's a thousand different decisions that

00:17:58.780 all need to go right and sometimes it feels like you're navigating a house of mirrors everything

00:18:03.300 looks good until you take that step and realize you're walking into a wall that's why you need

00:18:08.420 more than just a realtor you need a guide a serious expert somebody who knows where all the dead ends are

00:18:14.060 where the pitfalls hide and how do you get through to the other end without losing your shirt real

00:18:19.920 estate agents i trust is not a website full of random names it's a network of vetted experienced

00:18:25.320 professionals who share your values and actually earn their title i know because this is my company

00:18:31.180 buying or selling a home is a very big deal we treat it like one you should treat it like one

00:18:36.800 go with real estate agents i trust and stop guessing you interview them yourself we just want to we just

00:18:42.180 want to introduce you if you don't like them don't use them doesn't cost you anything but talk to them

00:18:47.800 they're some of the best in the country it's realestateagentsitrust.com realestateagentsitrust.com

00:18:54.860 now back to the podcast you're listening to the best of the glenbeck program jack carr is in with us

00:19:01.600 now jack it's always good to see it is so great to see you thank you so much for having me and it is

00:19:05.740 so amazing to watch you work in the studio i've been in a lot of studios over the last few years

00:19:09.740 and none are as as clean and efficient as what you have going on here it's absolutely amazing to

00:19:15.980 watch you work someone at the top of their game do this it's it's just remarkable are you gonna ask

00:19:21.620 me for money maybe a blurb it's uh it's good to have you here because you don't know best-selling

00:19:27.280 author uh and executive producer of the terminal list uh series of books and uh and is it that's

00:19:34.340 netflix it's uh amazon prime amazon prime video and just finished the uh the next season of the show

00:19:39.460 which is true believer based on my second book finished filming that in morocco about two weeks ago so

00:19:43.920 pretty fresh from finishing that up jumping on a plane meeting my wife in paris for a few days and

00:19:48.060 then heading out here to see you so it's been go go go yeah um so tell me about the new book came out

00:19:53.400 yesterday and you set it in vietnam which vietnam 1968 is a real break right it's a break for my main

00:20:01.280 protagonist james reese who is the uh protagonist of my contemporary thriller series so there are seven

00:20:06.980 of those ends with uh red sky morning last year there was just a nice arc to those first seven books

00:20:12.660 and i kind of at the very beginning i was very deliberate in wanting to create other characters

00:20:17.680 within the universe that would be interesting enough to have books in their own right and i

00:20:21.460 wanted to have multi-generational characters also so james reese his dad and grandfather and then

00:20:26.040 this other lineage the hastings family of the hastings and his father and grandfather so this

00:20:31.940 is the first exploration little empire so a universe out here yeah right and uh i talked about the dad in

00:20:38.000 uh in most of the books but most uh most in depth in only the dead so in book number six and it just

00:20:44.920 made sense to go back to 1968 vietnam explore his origin story as a seal attached to mac v sog going

00:20:51.220 across the border what is mac so it's a very innocuous sounding name so uh military assistance

00:20:56.440 command vietnam studies and observations group so the sog part is the important part and it was meant kind

00:21:02.120 of to be innocuous so that uh the they wouldn't be readily apparent that these guys were going across

00:21:07.900 the border into denied areas in laos cambodia north vietnam where they weren't supposed to be operating

00:21:12.200 where americans were not supposed to be operating so they're they were there to do disruption

00:21:15.880 operations along the ho chi man trail primarily calling airstrikes blow up uh weapons caches and that

00:21:21.500 sort of thing um so that's the baseline for it but i really wanted to do was set an espionage story

00:21:27.380 in southeast asia in 1968 which was the bloodiest year of the war for the united states and no one

00:21:32.980 had really done that in a long time so that was uh the quiet american by graham green 1955 uh the

00:21:38.820 tears of autumn that's charles mccary 1974 and john le caray the honorable school boy 1977 and i'm not

00:21:45.420 aware of anyone else doing this since those guys so it's been a couple moons and i decided that's what

00:21:50.440 i want to do espionage story saigon heart of vietnam southeast asia and the bloodiest year for our

00:21:56.880 country so when you got into this how much it was any of it because there's so much that is parallel

00:22:04.160 that is happening now i mean the society is reflecting all the way to assassinations what

00:22:11.880 was happening at that time did that play a role in this at all it well it just by default and uh but

00:22:18.340 mostly it was because the father's war was vietnam there happened to be parallels between what we did in

00:22:24.060 iraq and afghanistan and vietnam we didn't really listen to those learn those lessons and apply them

00:22:29.060 in uh in a present day as wisdom and we tend to do that over and over and over again we're really 0.84

00:22:34.640 stupid as a species specifically when it relates to afghanistan we had the soviet experience uh from 0.91

00:22:39.360 79 to 89 that we could have looked at and uh and we took we took any lessons we took the wrong ones 0.99

00:22:44.560 unfortunately so what did you because you're younger than me but we're not not by too much

00:22:50.840 okay it's made too many years so um uh we both grew up we saw vietnam so we saw the wreckage

00:22:57.560 of vietnam you know i i know vietnam soldiers and i i mean it's really what molded me on my support for

00:23:04.680 the military if we decide to go to war then we go to war to fight it and finish it and bring them home 0.97

00:23:11.720 and then take care of the men that served over there yeah and we're not doing it again yeah another

00:23:18.440 lesson we don't ever seem to learn um what did you learn about vietnam that maybe did it change

00:23:25.100 anything any viewpoint or anything it did a little bit in that i thought i knew a lot about vietnam at

00:23:30.220 the outset i thought i had studied this conflict the 60s also my parents were essentially children

00:23:34.500 of the 60s right uh so i grew up with that in that in my in my household i was influenced by popular

00:23:39.640 culture the movies of the 70s and the 80s and the 90s that pertain to vietnam and the 60s in general

00:23:44.300 so i thought i was starting from a fairly solid foundation i've studied warfare insurgencies

00:23:48.280 counterinsurgencies my entire life so then i started writing and i realized that i had really just

00:23:53.860 scratched the surface before so i wanted to also write this book through the lens of 1968 so without

00:23:59.420 50 plus years of hindsight applied to different characters that's why we're talking here in october

00:24:05.260 rather than june when the book was supposed to come out because it took so much longer to write

00:24:09.480 a book like that meaning every single character whether they're 25 years old 50 70 years old they

00:24:14.620 only have their life experience up to 1968 to lend to their perspective on an event on a conversation

00:24:20.200 a situation give me a scenario where you were like i can't write that you know i immersed myself back

00:24:26.700 into into that year so i a watch from 1968 right here i had seiko watches out there too those play

00:24:33.100 into the uh to it i had browning high powers from that era lying around i had car 15s lying around

00:24:39.280 it looked like i was about to invade north vietnam i had maps from from that era all over the place i

00:24:43.960 read dots uh you know on those maps books everywhere pamphlets old national geographics from the 50s and

00:24:48.880 60s about vietnam so it really did look like i was planning planning an invasion um but i mean i learned

00:24:54.880 so much more about vietnam but mostly it was that was perspective so i have a soviet perspective i have

00:25:01.340 a u.s perspective i have a vietnamese perspective i have a u.s perspective from washington and all of

00:25:06.780 those uh to give to show people as they read this thing that uh there are these different perspectives

00:25:12.920 on the war and all these different people are bringing their life experiences to this story to

00:25:17.240 really immerse people and take them back in time to 1960 and i just want to didn't want to say that

00:25:22.120 they're listening to credence clearwater revival and say it's 1968 and drop a contemporary thriller

00:25:26.200 into vietnam right i wanted to immerse myself in this year and it really became historical fiction

00:25:30.580 and uh and as such it took a lot more time energy and effort than i anticipated at the outset

00:25:35.720 um let me ask you about um some of the stuff that is going on uh now uh the department of war

00:25:44.460 how do you feel about department of war as opposed to department of defense yeah well i'm not saying

00:25:49.700 that they got this idea from me i'm just saying that i never heard anyone talk about it until uh

00:25:55.260 until i mentioned it after the afghanistan withdrawal right so uh i did an article for

00:25:59.680 for town hall and i talked about it on on different news programs when uh when the withdrawal was was

00:26:04.500 going south and uh precision and language reflects precision and thought as you know and the department

00:26:09.800 of defense means something different than the department of war just from a personal language

00:26:13.900 perspective uh defense is defense the department of war is the department of war so i made that case

00:26:19.020 in this uh in this uh article that i wrote back in 2021 and uh so now we're doing it i think it's

00:26:26.160 really smart it is smart but uh also if you read the um the the statement on it it's not permanent

00:26:34.220 so if you really go into the the verbiage in that it's very deliberate in there so another

00:26:39.160 administration coming in so now we're just calling it the department of war but i believe and someone

00:26:43.500 can correct me in the comments section here but i believe that it does take an act of congress to

00:26:48.000 officially change this forever going forward now they're calling it the department of war so if

00:26:52.800 you look at the language it's very specific you're calling it the department of war but it's not yet

00:26:56.400 really the department of war i have to tell you it is so we are in such a weird place to where

00:27:01.480 we swing so far one direction and then the next administration just swing all the way back you

00:27:09.080 can't run a country like that i mean you know we can't run a country like china either where they 1.00

00:27:14.620 have absolute control of everything but they can think you know 20 50 100 years in the future

00:27:21.140 that's how they become successful we have to think two years in the future um but we used to be

00:27:29.460 together on more stuff now you switch administration go to the other side and it's it's not the same

00:27:36.160 country no and it's certainly the phones that we carry around in our pockets are not helping

00:27:40.480 matters at all and all especially for this next generation my son's generation uh my son that you

00:27:45.020 met and uh in salt lake this last uh last year he's doing wonderful he wanted me to say hi to you

00:27:49.360 and i really appreciate you being so kind to him when you met but it's it's his generation really and

00:27:54.060 our daughter's a little bit older and like charlie kirk our son was coming up to me all the time and

00:27:59.460 showed me those videos my wife and i'd be sitting on the couch and he was at at 12 13 14 he showed me

00:28:04.340 these videos and he was just had this such this connection with uh with charlie kirk and that

00:28:08.600 message and that's the generation that was a tough one because he was away at school and uh i didn't

00:28:13.620 get to him in time but to tell him hey don't look at your your phone don't watch this video and so both

00:28:18.600 him and my daughter saw saw it my daughter was about 10 feet away oh i didn't know that yeah just

00:28:25.620 i'm so sorry horrible horrible and she's the most well second most sensitive child in the four

00:28:32.960 um but i mean it's happening to all of all of our kids because they they fell even if you didn't know

00:28:39.660 him they felt they knew him they did you know because he was so genuine and real yeah they really

00:28:45.860 did and uh and it wasn't like the jfk assassination where you're seeing something in the paper you're

00:28:51.420 hearing walter cronkite talk about it on the news we didn't get this approved or film for your

00:28:54.900 till years later yeah uh for us challenger watching that you didn't see people you saw an object

00:28:59.360 explode in the sky and you were devastated just by that uh and now you have someone you feel that

00:29:03.860 you thought of that that you know yeah get killed right in front of you and uh essentially in high

00:29:08.680 definition and uh just one so brutal and so so heartbreaking but it also has really you know

00:29:14.000 galvanized as it's changed a generation i think also and bringing a lot of people back to the church

00:29:19.740 uh us included uh that's amazing isn't it it really is incredible to see it's amazing to me i was

00:29:26.640 just talking to some friends you know it's so appropriate that christ was a carpenter um because

00:29:31.780 i have always thought of my life you know before i really turned over to him as just

00:29:37.940 it was building my house and uh i wanted to be a helpful guy you know i want to be involved in

00:29:45.540 building the house i should not be involved i have no skills and uh we had a pile of wood needed to be

00:29:51.140 cut and i was like you know what let me help i'm going to just cut this wood okay mr beck i'm so

00:29:56.620 i measure i measure twice i cut it and they take it and they take it back in the house and i keep

00:30:02.740 cutting and i run out of wood and uh i said well you have any more wood or anything and i said look

00:30:09.360 to me and said now it's your money so whatever you want to do we're all for but everything you've cut

00:30:17.240 we've had to recut or toss away and i was like you guys should have said something before i cut all of

00:30:22.960 the wood but anyway you're having such a good time right and with my life i feel like i cut all of

00:30:28.460 this wood and none of it was usable you know because i just destroyed my own life and none of it was

00:30:34.660 usable and then i turned myself over to god and i had all this crappy pile of wood and he took it and

00:30:42.040 made something beyond what i could have ever done and there was not even any sawdust there's no waste

00:30:50.880 with him and you're seeing it happen with charlie's death look at what has been born out of that i mean

00:31:00.240 i would never want that to happen and he didn't want it to happen but how he can take the very worst

00:31:06.800 things and make something glorious is amazing it's incredible to see that that impact and uh and i

00:31:13.800 guess that is what the one consolation is that the the impact that he has in in death is probably more

00:31:18.640 um more impactful generationally than what he had in life even and he had a huge one oh huge one in

00:31:24.260 life yeah this one lasts this one will last and last and last we're talking to jack carr best-selling

00:31:29.380 author of the terminal list series he has uh the new uh book terminal list series cry havoc uh it came out

00:33:58.520 the palestinian flag uh and there are so many different things in the bible the bible actually

00:34:05.220 uses the word hamas look it up it's crazy it uses the word hamas as destruction and death

00:34:11.920 um and uh and gaza is all over in the bible too um but i i don't know but anyway so how do you feel

00:34:21.640 about the people on the streets if we were truly living in a dictatorship if we were living in a

00:34:30.420 country where we had a dictator who would just not allow anybody to say anything we wouldn't be talking

00:34:35.540 about jimmy kimmel we would be talking about the rounding up of people who are carrying islamic 0.99

00:34:41.920 islamic terrorist uh flags and shouting slogans for islamic uh jihad in our own country that's what 0.57

00:34:53.580 that's what a dictator would do he would stop that speech am i wrong i mean what's what's more dangerous 0.95

00:35:00.920 jimmy kimmel what's what's more un-american jimmy kimmel or islamic jihad 0.95

00:35:09.080 you're calling for the death of jews i mean that is so unbelievably un-american 0.96

00:35:17.420 but just like we did in the 1930s we you know we let the nazis walk in the streets uh you know in 0.68

00:35:26.560 the 1930s and they held a big rally in in madison square garden if you've never seen it it's it's the

00:35:33.920 american bund movement b-u-n-d it is frightening nazis were everywhere in especially in the german

00:35:42.320 communities of the northeast uh and they held rallies they you know imaged george washington 0.64

00:35:50.720 next to adolf hitler it was crazy stuff crazy well we learned we learned what nazis were and 1.00

00:35:58.600 those nazis went away this i hope this goes away um you know at least from the stupid people that 1.00

00:36:09.680 don't just don't know what they're doing oh i'm just marching you know because the palestinians are 1.00

00:36:14.200 you know oppressed can you do a little more thought put a little more thought into this at all who are

00:36:20.180 standing with the reason why i bring this up today is not only not only it was it uh what did they call

00:36:29.700 this yesterday the uh new york flood i can't remember um i can't remember exactly what they called it i

00:36:40.940 just saw it glory to our martyrs blah blah blah they had called to flood new york city that's what it was

00:36:49.160 this protest they said flood new york city well that is an exact reference to the operation al-axa flood

00:37:01.100 which is what that operation was on october 7th a flood they called it a flood again book of revelation

00:37:09.260 the dragon unleashes a flood

00:37:12.080 i personally like to know who these people are

00:37:19.740 i personally like to be able to say okay do you know who you're standing with

00:37:26.280 do you know who's supporting you do you know who's funding all of this

00:37:29.920 and i like to make the case and i don't want to ever kick these people off of the streets

00:37:38.400 you have a right

00:37:39.880 but i thought we lived in a dictatorship and we didn't have freedom of speech

00:37:48.080 let me show you something where we don't have freedom of speech

00:37:51.740 is counseling freedom of speech this is what was in front of the supreme court yesterday

00:37:58.320 it comes from colorado colorado has a ban on conversion therapy 2019 they passed a law

00:38:05.880 counselors cannot try to change a minor client's gender identity or sexual orientation

00:38:13.060 including behaviors or gender expressions i mean you want to talk about freedom of speech

00:38:19.040 i can't try to change your behavior

00:38:21.260 what is the point of going to church

00:38:26.760 okay can't can't try to change behaviors or gender expressions or sexual identity or orientation

00:38:36.040 it does permit it has an exception

00:38:39.660 the counselor can offer assistance to a person undergoing gender transition

00:38:45.620 so you can help them one direction you just can't help them the other direction

00:38:50.420 now kaylee chiles she is a licensed counselor in colorado she's in colorado springs god bless her heart

00:39:00.500 uh and she specializes in addiction trauma sexuality gender dysphoria and other mental health concerns

00:39:08.520 she's a christian and she serves clients who are seeking religiously informed care that aligns with

00:39:17.400 biblical teachings especially on sexuality and gender

00:39:21.640 now prior to 2019 she was fine

00:39:26.180 she counseled clients including minors

00:39:30.220 uh

00:39:31.400 and uh she would say you know this is what the bible says this is how you do it and she would help

00:39:38.140 people you know with their gender dysphoria

00:39:41.160 now she once the law passed she stopped 1.00

00:39:45.140 all discussion with minors everything else she's abiding by the law 0.99

00:39:49.920 however

00:39:51.040 she has a lawsuit

00:39:53.680 that's the court case that the supreme court heard yesterday

00:39:58.200 does counseling count

00:40:02.120 or is counseling freedom of speech

00:40:18.640 let me tell you some things that i absolutely believe

00:40:23.660 and i can say them today

00:40:26.920 but if this court case goes the wrong way

00:40:31.440 will i be allowed to say these things

00:40:34.440 these are things i absolutely believe

00:40:37.240 i believe

00:40:38.680 that marriage between a man and a woman 0.81

00:40:40.900 is ordained by god

00:40:42.680 and the family is central to the creator's plan

00:40:50.100 i believe all human beings

00:40:52.840 male and female are created in the image of god 0.98

00:40:56.420 each of us

00:40:59.440 is a beloved spirit

00:42:57.840 you're going to be held

00:42:58.980 accountable

00:42:59.560 because it is your

00:43:01.200 highest calling

00:43:02.600 this is

00:43:04.620 your obligation

00:43:06.260 is this

00:43:10.520 controversial

00:43:11.140 marriage

00:43:15.060 between a man

00:43:15.880 and a woman

00:43:16.460 the basic

00:43:17.840 building block

00:43:18.920 of all life

00:43:20.040 in the universe

00:43:20.760 is male

00:43:21.920 and female

00:43:22.780 creating life

00:43:24.540 that tells me

00:43:26.600 that's an

00:43:27.080 eternal truth

00:43:28.500 you don't

00:43:30.840 create life

00:43:31.680 with male and male

00:43:32.520 the universe

00:43:33.860 collapses

00:43:34.560 male and male

00:43:35.700 female and female 0.62

00:43:36.640 so the universal

00:43:38.580 truth

00:43:39.340 the way

00:43:41.060 man was

00:43:42.360 created

00:43:43.000 the truth

00:43:44.920 is

00:43:45.380 male and female

00:43:46.880 to create children

00:43:47.940 and that

00:43:49.120 is an eternal

00:43:49.920 plan

00:43:50.480 and every time

00:43:52.900 we break that

00:43:53.700 plan

00:43:54.120 every time

00:43:54.980 we decide

00:43:55.740 that we're just

00:43:56.580 going to have 0.99

00:43:56.980 sex

00:43:57.520 outside of

00:43:59.200 matrimony

00:43:59.860 outside of

00:44:00.600 the family

00:44:01.240 every time

00:44:03.520 you break

00:44:04.100 mom and dad

00:44:05.560 and child

00:44:06.340 every time

00:44:07.140 you don't

00:44:07.540 honor your

00:44:08.100 marital vows

00:44:09.000 it hurts

00:44:11.100 all of

00:44:12.180 society

00:44:12.900 happiness

00:44:15.120 and we all

00:44:16.220 know this

00:44:16.900 happiness

00:44:17.900 is best

00:44:18.920 achieved

00:44:19.400 when

00:44:20.120 you're

00:44:21.200 you're just

00:44:21.880 living the

00:44:22.440 principles of

00:44:23.080 Christ

00:44:23.420 you've got

00:44:25.060 man and

00:44:25.740 woman 0.99

00:44:26.020 both lawfully

00:44:27.460 wedded

00:44:27.900 wedded

00:44:28.340 and they're

00:44:29.820 creating

00:44:30.220 children

00:44:30.660 and they're

00:44:31.500 both

00:44:31.900 trying to

00:44:32.740 do the

00:44:33.180 right thing

00:44:33.820 following

00:44:34.380 God

00:44:34.800 repentance

00:44:35.720 forgiveness

00:44:36.240 respect

00:44:36.680 love

00:44:37.160 compassion

00:44:37.700 work

00:44:38.120 all of

00:44:39.280 this

00:44:39.460 stuff

00:44:39.840 there will

00:44:44.580 come a

00:44:44.980 time

00:44:45.320 because all

00:44:45.960 of this

00:44:46.240 stuff comes

00:44:46.720 from the

00:44:47.020 Bible

00:44:47.280 there will

00:44:50.500 come a

00:44:50.900 time

00:44:51.280 where I

00:44:52.620 can't have

00:44:53.380 the freedom

00:44:53.800 of speech

00:44:54.260 to say

00:44:54.840 those things

00:44:55.440 that will

00:44:56.140 be deemed

00:44:56.740 hate

00:44:57.440 speech

00:44:58.180 that's what's

00:45:04.820 in front of

00:45:05.200 the Supreme

00:45:05.600 Court

00:45:05.860 yesterday

00:45:06.620 we have

00:45:10.100 people in

00:45:10.660 black robes

00:45:11.500 deciding

00:45:12.280 whether that

00:45:13.680 can be

00:45:14.240 said

00:45:14.700 by me

00:45:15.780 by you

00:45:16.520 by a

00:45:17.060 counselor

00:45:17.380 by a

00:45:17.920 priest

00:45:18.240 in Colorado

00:45:22.400 that counselor 0.85

00:45:23.420 cannot sit

00:45:24.380 down

00:45:24.880 with that

00:45:26.340 minor

00:45:26.800 and say

00:45:27.680 what I

00:45:28.160 just said

00:45:28.900 it's

00:45:30.840 against

00:45:31.560 the law

00:45:32.900 in

00:45:34.080 Colorado

00:45:34.560 is that

00:45:39.040 the

00:45:40.120 freedom

00:45:41.660 that the

00:45:43.500 left is

00:45:44.160 preaching

00:45:46.080 for

00:45:46.700 is that

00:45:49.580 definition

00:45:50.100 of freedom

00:45:50.760 their

00:45:52.640 definition

00:45:53.100 of freedom

00:45:53.560 is

00:45:53.740 counselors

00:45:56.340 say those

00:45:56.760 things

00:45:57.040 churches

00:45:58.100 those

00:45:58.380 things

00:45:58.700 that's

00:45:58.980 all

00:45:59.160 hate

00:45:59.420 speech

00:45:59.820 we should 1.00

00:46:01.400 kill 1.00

00:46:01.760 people 1.00

00:46:02.220 who

00:46:02.940 disagree

00:46:03.320 with

00:46:03.680 us

00:46:04.040 that's

00:46:08.180 the society

00:46:08.940 that the

00:46:09.600 left

00:46:09.880 is offering

00:46:10.700 you

00:46:22.560 stop saying

00:46:23.240 those

00:46:23.540 things

00:46:23.940 because

00:46:25.280 I

00:46:25.800 believe

00:46:26.460 them

00:46:26.840 and I

00:46:28.100 can't

00:46:28.600 change

00:46:29.380 what

00:46:29.800 I

00:46:30.100 believe

00:46:30.860 because

00:46:32.520 I

00:46:32.700 believe

00:46:33.140 them

00:46:33.340 it's not

00:46:33.720 something

00:46:33.940 I just

00:46:34.240 say

00:46:34.760 it's how

00:46:36.160 I live

00:46:36.500 my life

00:46:37.120 it's

00:46:37.480 it's

00:46:38.000 it's

00:46:38.700 years

00:46:39.200 and years

00:46:39.840 and years

00:46:40.500 of experimentation

00:46:41.360 of that

00:46:43.980 don't do

00:46:44.380 that again

00:46:44.980 that's

00:46:47.080 how I

00:46:47.420 got my

00:46:48.320 beliefs

00:46:48.660 I tore

00:46:49.200 myself

00:46:49.680 apart

00:46:50.120 what do

00:46:50.940 you

00:46:51.100 actually

00:46:51.600 believe

00:46:52.100 about

00:46:52.420 God

00:46:52.900 and if

00:46:53.660 you

00:46:53.780 haven't

00:46:54.120 done

00:46:54.300 that

00:46:54.480 you

00:46:54.600 don't

00:46:54.740 really

00:46:54.920 have

00:46:55.060 a

00:46:55.180 testimony

00:46:55.520 it

00:46:57.840 requires

00:46:58.440 you

00:46:58.940 but that

00:47:01.700 only happens

00:47:02.220 when life

00:47:02.720 pushes you

00:47:03.300 up against

00:47:03.740 the wall

00:47:04.160 and that's

00:47:05.840 why God

00:47:06.420 is allowing

00:47:07.100 a lot

00:47:07.440 of this

00:47:07.700 stuff

00:47:10.960 wall

00:47:11.100 to wake

00:47:11.720 up

00:47:12.100 what

00:47:13.160 is

00:47:13.460 true

00:47:14.060 what

00:47:16.060 is

00:47:16.220 worth

00:47:16.460 standing

00:47:16.940 for

00:47:17.300 what

00:47:17.480 is

00:47:17.600 worth 0.74

00:47:17.800 dying

00:47:18.160 for

00:47:18.440 what

00:47:18.620 is
