Transcript
00:00:00.000
Before we start talking to our guest, it was 1858.
00:00:04.440
It was the Republican State Convention and Abraham Lincoln was getting up to speak.
00:00:12.840
Now, he wasn't even thought about as the next president.
00:00:18.400
And he told the delegates at the convention that America was about to collapse.
00:00:23.240
And he chose the words of Christ, the metaphor about how a house divided against itself can't stand.
00:00:28.900
And Lincoln's friends, his advisors, everybody said, you can't say that.
00:00:32.840
It's too radical, too politically incorrect, as if they would have said that back then.
00:00:37.440
But Lincoln said, and if I can quote, I wanted to strike home to the minds of men in order to rouse them to the peril of the times, end quote.
00:00:51.980
And after he gave that line, he said, I do not expect the union to be dissolved.
00:01:01.800
But I do expect that it will cease to be divided.
00:01:07.160
It will become all of one thing or all the other.
00:01:15.680
In America, we need to stop and look at that broken America then, because it resembles a lot of the America that we live in today.
00:01:33.180
Can you imagine Joe Biden trying to give that speech?
00:01:36.020
Just a few days ago, he called himself, you know, the leader of all the country.
00:01:47.520
Today's guest has taken a stand in defense of the nation.
00:01:51.000
In his latest editorial for The Blaze, he wrote that abortion is as important to Democrats in blue states today as slavery was to Democrats in southern states prior to the Civil War.
00:02:04.940
His writing and his commentary has appeared on The Root, The Federalist, Newsweek.
00:02:10.100
He is a contributor to Blaze TV's Fearless with Jason Whitlock.
00:02:14.900
He's a scholar at 1776 Unites and the founder of the Civitas Consulting Group, which focuses on building strong communities by offering STEM K through 12 programs, job training for adults and tech resources for lower income families.
00:02:33.940
He has he has led a life that has quite a bit of experience in the government.
00:02:41.360
He served as the project coordinator at the office of the chief technology officer, then as the director, executive director at Connect D.C., which connects residents of Washington, D.C. with technology.
00:02:57.140
But his most important job is the one that he says is the toughest job on Earth.
00:03:03.940
Being a dad today on the Glenn Beck podcast, Delano Squires.
00:03:11.040
You know, most people, when you interrogate them, they fold like a cheap suit.
00:03:17.860
You can strap me down to the chair and swing that bright light into my face.
00:03:24.960
You could ask me to reveal state secrets all day long.
00:03:29.080
I'll probably tell you, but I will not be sweating.
00:03:35.520
I mean, I'll break so fast, but you'll never see me sweat.
00:03:41.420
Because I just started using the sweat block wipes at night.
00:03:45.920
I've been using their deodorant and antiperspirant stick, but it's now fires a hell hot here in Texas.
00:03:54.360
And I literally walked into the house after being outside for, I don't know, five minutes and just wringing wet.
00:04:05.880
If you use sweat block, they're wipes and you once a week wipe the, you know, dab them under your arms and you don't have to do it again for a week.
00:04:19.280
Developed by a Harvard doctor who was a really sweaty mess.
00:04:23.100
What am I looking for somebody else to come up with a solution to this?
00:04:27.240
You might not suffer from excessive sweating, but I live in Texas.
00:04:34.040
The faucets are on sweat block, a lifesaver for every pitch giving, hardworking, date going average person out there that might live in the heat.

00:05:24.540
This July, I'll make 10 years of marriage for me and my wife.
00:05:32.700
So our house is full of energy and life and noise.
00:05:41.920
I'm so frustrated by what is taught in schools, what is taught in the culture.
00:06:08.720
And I wonder if this plays a role with our suicide rates.
00:06:12.940
What, what is there to live for, to strive for if you need someone else?
00:06:20.180
It, I've been thinking about this a lot this week and I'm trying to come up with the right
00:06:27.620
And what it is, I feel like the people on the left who cast black people into the role of perpetual victim
00:06:44.120
They're robbing me of dignity and self-respect or they're trying to rob me.
00:06:47.900
Um, and in the same way we would recognize it, conservatives recognize it when someone
00:06:55.520
When they say, I, I was, uh, you know, in the Navy SEALs and I killed bin Laden and it's
00:07:05.300
But yeah, but you're not what you pretend to be.
00:07:08.920
What the left does, they commit acts of stolen honor and they tell black people, no, it's,
00:07:16.460
you're not responsible for yourself, for your family, your community.
00:07:21.320
Now they do it under the guise of, um, diversity, inclusion, equity, um, of trying to help and
00:07:31.200
But it, it robs me of my ability to fend for myself.
00:07:38.840
And it's, it's, um, you know, the first time I saw it really, uh, culture-wide was, um,
00:07:46.460
tarp, the big bailout, no, no, wait, you allow me to fail.
00:07:52.920
If I take failure off the board, I learned nothing.
00:07:59.880
That failure being taken away robs me for who I can be if I have to rise above it.
00:08:06.920
And, and only people in society who we accept having no responsibility for their actions
00:08:13.960
You, you infantilize people when you say that I, right, the benevolent, uh, person who
00:08:21.960
controls all society, I am more responsible for you and your family, your children, and
00:08:31.060
Um, I reject it and I, I have no interest in it.
00:08:35.320
So if, if I see, you know, uh, uh, a white person or someone of another ethnic background,
00:08:41.660
the only thing that they owe me is love, which is what the scripture says, like to love one
00:08:46.200
another as, as fellow human beings and image bearers.
00:08:50.000
But other than that, I'm, I'm not interested in white nights.
00:08:53.360
I'd, I'd rush my, I would much rather see, um, more black fathers taking the lead in their
00:08:59.720
homes than to have more white nights, um, trying to, to fill that, trying to fill that
00:09:05.360
So yeah, it's, I don't, I don't want anybody trying to rob me of anything.
00:09:11.000
I'm trying to think of my life if there ever has been a white night.
00:09:17.180
I don't want somebody riding up with a horse and saving me, except for the Lord.
00:09:20.940
But he's the only one, which, you know, is, is funny because we have, we think that we
00:09:28.540
don't have enough religion in our society, but I think we have too much, you know, this,
00:09:34.100
this, this entire woke philosophy, black lives matter, all of it, that is a religion and they
00:09:41.820
are high priests and you will perform what they say the ritual is, or you're done.
00:09:51.340
And I, I said that Ibram Kendi is not just the most influential voice on race in this
00:09:58.200
He is the most effective evangelist in this country because his worldview has been, um,
00:10:06.160
implemented in K through 12 education and, uh, major corporations through social media
00:10:13.300
in every level of government, the notion that, um, any disparity can be traced back to a disparity
00:10:19.760
between different ethnic groups can be traced back to racist policy.
00:10:23.400
And, and as such, there needs to be affirmative steps taken in the name of anti-racism to erase
00:10:30.600
I mean, that's, that's the status quo in, in our government and in our cultural institutions.
00:10:35.540
And he preaches that message regardless of what people believe.
00:10:39.740
And in fact, he says in his own words that racism is death and anti-racism is life.
00:10:45.620
And, and the Christian will recognize that, right?
00:10:48.640
He takes the words of the scriptures that are meant for Christ, right?
00:10:52.840
So sin is death and, and life can, uh, can be found through, through Jesus Christ.
00:11:00.160
And, and I think one of the things that it actually has done for me is make me a lot more
00:11:05.220
comfortable bringing my faith and public morality into the public square.
00:11:10.440
I don't think there's, you cannot have, at least I can't, I can't have a total encompassing
00:11:18.880
and frank conversation about what's happening in the world without good and evil.
00:11:23.940
There's just no, there's no way to describe, shout your abortion.
00:11:31.860
That is, I'm not saying the, but I'm saying that's antichrist teaching.
00:11:37.320
And it's the, if you, if you can't see it for the first time, I understand how the two
00:11:43.520
sides, you know, scripture said two sides won't understand each other in those days.
00:11:48.420
And, and, and what we've done in the last couple of years is remove the veneer of
00:11:55.080
Some states are going to go to banning abortion after six weeks or the first time any, you
00:12:00.700
know, fetal activity is detected and others are going to go to up until the moment of birth.
00:12:06.440
So the notion of viability or 20 weeks or 24 weeks or some other arbitrary standard is
00:12:16.520
And, and increasingly we will see this for more issues.
00:12:19.400
You're either going to be on this side or that side.
00:12:22.780
I've been saying this for 15 years when this hits, and I think we're in it now, when this
00:12:31.000
If you say, I'm not going to choose, you are actually on the field.
00:12:37.280
And I, and I think you see this in that, and this is important, I think for just the
00:12:41.080
everyday citizen to realize, but also for elected officials, um, or cultural influencers
00:12:48.440
whose instinct is to find a third way because they don't want to be associated with one party
00:12:55.660
But again, the parties could not be further apart on an issue like abortion.
00:13:01.060
I remember the, the, I should, but wait, hang on just a second.
00:13:04.900
I don't think Mitch McConnell gives a flying crap.
00:13:13.520
Individuals in the party, I think may or may not care.
00:13:19.440
Somehow or another, there's such a disconnect from what I think people believe.
00:13:25.740
Even on the left, come on, nobody believes that you can kill your baby 30 days after life.
00:13:39.720
Um, nobody believes that it's a clump of cells and I could give birth to a bald eagle.
00:13:49.020
Everybody knows, but they're, they're in denial.
00:13:53.120
And somehow or another, we've got to connect people to reality and then connect the parties
00:14:03.740
And I think the Democrats in the rest of the country, maybe don't realize what they're empowering
00:14:14.500
Do you, do you think you're at the person you live next door to that might've voted for Joe
00:14:19.980
Do you really think that they've connected to what's really happening in their name?
00:14:27.380
And I think part of that is because most people, even if they vote, they are not, um, partisan
00:14:35.660
They're not, um, fanatics when it comes to politics.
00:14:38.760
They vote and, and they're certainly concerned about local issues, but they don't necessarily
00:14:43.760
wear the badge in the same way that the hardened activists do.
00:14:48.740
And those people are opening the door and summoning demons that they're not going to be
00:14:56.720
Um, and I think you see this and I said this, you know, I've said this in, in, you know,
00:15:00.580
previous venues where when, when you hear the, the abortion absolutist, that's what I call
00:15:06.300
them because I, I like in the moment we're into a second abolitionist movement and I draw
00:15:11.520
direct parallels between the work of Frederick Douglass and the work of Lila Rose with live
00:15:19.560
So, so could, uh, spend some time on that before you move on.
00:15:24.240
So, so I make that connection cause I think both, you know, um, chattel slavery and abortion,
00:15:31.300
um, they dismiss or deny, uh, human beings as image bearers.
00:15:38.200
Um, they make the value of life conditional on the whims of the owner, whoever, so whether
00:15:46.120
that's slavery and slave owner or abortion and the mother of the child, um, they both
00:15:52.320
employ euphemisms to, to hide the barbarity of each institution.
00:15:56.500
In slavery, it was the peculiar institution and now we have, um, reproductive justice and
00:16:03.320
the woman's right to choose, um, and you know, all the other terms that they use and both have,
00:16:09.340
uh, abolitionists on one side, absolutists on the other side and accommodationists in the
00:16:17.160
middle, um, both in slavery and as it relates to, to abortion.
00:16:21.260
And, and here's the, the one thing I think that sort of wraps around it in some ways is that
00:16:26.500
Democrats today in blue States are as rabidly pro-abortion as Democrats in Southern States
00:16:40.260
Um, so, so that, that's where I draw those, um, those parallels.
00:16:44.840
But in this, in this, uh, uh, uh, abolitionist movement, again, you're, you're going to have
00:16:52.660
And I think the, the people who want, you know, again, abortion up on, up until birth,
00:17:03.160
I think a lot of people are sort of caught in the middle because for them, the abortion
00:17:07.400
debate never moves beyond the term of woman's right to choose.
00:17:11.100
Um, so I don't, I don't think they understand what it is that they are doing.
00:17:16.180
Um, and I think as is the case with many issues, they won't understand until the barbarian comes
00:17:25.280
Um, so if you have like a middle-aged woman and she's not having any more kids, she's just
00:17:28.900
again thinking, Oh, the woman should have a right to choose.
00:17:31.980
But when it gets to the point where her grandchildren, let's say, let's say she's raising her grandchildren
00:17:37.360
when they are coming home and telling her, Hey, granny, Gigi, Meemaw, my teacher told
00:17:46.440
And they said, my teacher told me that anybody who thinks that there's only two sexes is a
00:17:52.040
Now she's going to have to, now she's going to understand my vote, put these people in
00:17:57.120
power and she's going to have to deal with that.
00:17:58.940
They didn't the last time the world went through this, you know, the last time you'll, the Germans
00:18:07.920
did at least, they started making a series of decisions.
00:18:11.260
And then when you get to a certain point, you feel like you can't go back.
00:18:21.400
Some brave ones did, but a lot of them didn't, they just kept intentionally blinding themselves
00:18:30.020
to it so they could forgive themselves, I guess, afterwards.
00:18:34.540
And I think part of that is human nature, right?
00:18:37.000
You, you don't, once you make an investment, you say, well, I have to keep investing cause
00:18:42.320
I don't, I don't want to lose out on, on what I've invested so far.
00:18:46.280
But at a certain point, the center is not going to hold and it's clearly not holding
00:18:51.100
And people are going to have to understand that the, the culture war terminology does
00:18:58.680
I see this as a spiritual war, but even to the extent that we're talking cultural war,
00:19:02.700
it's not just, Oh, both sides say mean things back and forth.
00:19:06.400
It's, and again, to borrow, to, to look at Kendi, Kendi understands that war is about capturing
00:19:18.000
So when he has the federal government and the CDC framing the COVID response as a matter
00:19:26.000
of racial equity and saying that, um, vaccines should be doled out along those lines, that's
00:19:34.540
And, and he has established that all been captured.
00:19:38.680
Um, when, when the NBA is painting black lives matter or when they have, uh, on the court
00:19:44.480
or when they have the jerseys that say, um, love us and BLM and education equity.
00:19:50.580
These are all institutions that have been captured.
00:19:53.160
The right is afraid to even say things that they know to be true because more than anything,
00:20:02.800
Um, and they, they desire, uh, legitimacy from the left.
00:20:08.380
But if we're going to make some headway, um, we're going to have to engage in, in some, some
00:20:18.880
Throughout the whole world, the leading cause of death is abortion.
00:20:23.680
In the U S murder has become a wholesale business since Roe versus Wade.
00:20:31.960
I don't care what Bette Medler says, uh, Planned Parenthood's not killing children.
00:20:45.900
The ministry of pre-born and blaze media have partnered up for a better idea.
00:20:51.900
Um, rescuing 50,000 babies from abortion this year, 50,000 pre-born is a direct competition
00:21:00.340
to Planned Parenthood, largest provider of free ultrasounds in the U S when you let a
00:21:05.340
woman see her baby on ultrasound or hear the heartbeat, 80%, 80% are more likely to choose
00:21:17.940
While the world's going to hell in a handbasket, this is something we can actually do.
00:21:28.600
They go into these places where the, the, the, uh, highest amount of abortions are happening
00:21:36.200
and they go to these clinics and they say, Hey, how about we provide free ultrasounds?
00:21:44.920
Pre-born centers have counseled over 450 women considering abortion.
00:21:49.260
One hundred and eighty eight thousand babies have been saved.
00:21:54.840
If you'll help donate, dial pound two 50, say the keyword baby, all the money goes to
00:22:03.800
And also, uh, smaller donations just go to just provide it for free pound two 50 keyword
00:22:10.520
Find out all the information at preborn.com slash Glenn.
00:22:13.520
I've often thought, um, you know, Americans just want to get along.
00:22:22.840
I'm so tired of arguing with people over stuff that is like, what?
00:22:26.060
This should have been settled, you know, a thousand years ago.
00:22:29.160
Um, uh, but also, you know, I have felt that the, when I know we're going to win is when
00:22:41.820
there's a fleet of men like you, men and women, you know, Martin Luther King, you can look at
00:22:48.180
any photo and you see a fleet of white and a fleet of black all together.
00:22:54.660
It, it, it is going to take black men and women to stand up and say, don't take that.
00:23:05.660
It is going to be the black man that saves America.
00:23:18.680
And I say that because there's a couple of things going on as it relates to our political
00:23:25.400
One is the use of race to hide the left's radical agenda.
00:23:34.460
And you, you, you see it the way they talk about abortion, right?
00:23:38.380
Abortion used to be an issue for middle-class white women who wanted to be able to go to
00:23:45.440
Now, every time they talk about abortion, it's framed as this is going, the reversal
00:23:50.200
of Roe was going to hurt, um, black women and women of color and poor women.
00:23:57.600
It's when Joe Biden talks about transgenderism, it's, Oh, and black trans women of color are
00:24:05.660
Listen, what they're doing is that they use our history of race in a way, I call it the
00:24:14.180
Selma syndrome where they take the real history, right?
00:24:17.680
It's, it's part real history, part Stockholm syndrome.
00:24:21.240
So they, they tell black folks, if you allow conservatives to get back in, they're going
00:24:26.960
to take you back to what some, they're going to drag you all back in chains.
00:24:32.800
And, and to the extent that, um, black voters, um, allow that to happen and give that legitimacy
00:24:40.160
and credence, we become a lot more tenderized to all different types of agendas.
00:24:45.040
And then saying, yes, black liberation is dependent on us killing one third of our offspring in
00:24:57.160
I think a lot of it is going to be black men, um, who take, who, who step to the forefront
00:25:11.440
And the craziness that you guys are talking about, we're not getting down with that.
00:25:19.560
And, and to me, um, I first knew that this was coming when I saw how quickly BLM, the organization
00:25:30.560
Cause when I first learned about BLM and I looked at the 13 principles.
00:25:36.300
Not a single one said police, mortality, man, husband, father, boy, and even their black
00:25:43.900
villages principle, which you would think would say something along the lines of it takes
00:25:48.720
We're here to support mothers and fathers as they raise their children.
00:25:52.860
No, it said we are committed to disrupting the Western prescribed nuclear family.
00:25:57.720
That's when I knew that these people were not friendlies.
00:26:00.300
These, these were enemies, not just enemies of the cross because of the godlessness and,
00:26:04.640
and, and secularism, but enemies of me and my family.
00:26:09.720
I always felt, I don't know how, how old are you just turned 40, just turned 40.
00:26:23.920
Because I've always felt that the racism that was in my early childhood was getting so much
00:26:37.040
And I think I might be the first generation that was taught Martin Luther King was right.
00:26:47.320
We don't look, we look for content and character.
00:26:50.400
And then my children were definitely raised that way.
00:27:03.680
And then all of a sudden they just came in these groups generally run by a group of very
00:27:11.460
wealthy, wealthy, white people just took gasoline and poured it over all of us and set it on
00:27:24.300
I mean, it is so easy to see, um, to me, one of the, the, a couple of cases, bring it
00:27:44.180
If, if that's your, if that's your type of show, but he says, you know, I was assaulted
00:27:49.320
by two guys in Chicago, which was obviously well known for being MAGA country.
00:27:53.220
And, um, and immediately CNN is, they don't just cover it, which I think they should, right?
00:28:01.920
They should have covered it, but it's, Oh, this is, this is representative of, of America
00:28:10.400
And that narrative went so far and, and it just provided more evidence for the people
00:28:17.680
who are prone to thinking that America in 2019 is the same as America in 1819 is the
00:28:24.560
Uh, and that to me, when, when the demand for racism outstrips the supply, then eventually
00:28:33.600
Um, and I think that's what the Jussie Smollett situation showed.
00:28:37.700
And it showed that for the left, the left is more interested in fake hate crimes than
00:28:44.360
Because Jussie Smollett got the attention of the Chicago police department, um, of the
00:28:52.380
He had all of the celebrities, the comedians, everybody had his back.
00:28:57.320
And even at the point where it became clear that he was making the story up, there were
00:29:01.980
still people saying, well, even though it didn't happen to him, this is still representative
00:29:08.500
And I think that type of thing is destructive to a country and maintaining its unity.
00:29:14.160
Um, the less known cases of an eight year old girl named Jasmine Barnes, she was tragically
00:29:23.580
Um, the description first went out that it was a white male in his forties, right?
00:29:28.480
So again, if it has a racial element, it's everywhere.
00:29:32.600
Bernice King, Dr. King's daughter made tweets about this is the country we are.
00:29:37.800
And this, this beautiful black girl, baby, here comes Sean King.
00:29:41.660
Here comes Gabrielle union and, and other celebrities who draw attention to this because they think
00:29:52.920
It was two black men, both charged with capital murder.
00:29:58.260
And in fact, the white man that Sean King accused of being the shooter publicly with his
00:30:04.280
over a million followers ended up tragically killing himself about seven months later.
00:30:14.760
If they did, they would address the things that are most threatening black lives.
00:30:18.660
I tell you, I mean, I hate to bring him up because I just think he's a loser to be able
00:30:24.060
to make an argument about, but at the time before we knew everything else, Bill Cosby was
00:30:30.260
destroyed because he said strong black families.
00:30:37.140
They all, everybody, white, black, everybody apparently knew that about Bill Cosby.
00:30:42.740
But as soon as he crossed the line of saying families and pull your pants up, he all of a
00:30:53.940
I want to say it was 20, 2004, 50th, 50th anniversary of Brown versus Board of Ed.
00:31:00.760
That is the moment that Bill Cosby, even within sort of the black mainstream democratic community,
00:31:10.320
Because what he did is in effect, take the burden of responsibility for improving the condition
00:31:18.840
and social outcomes of black Americans, he took it off of the shoulders of white people
00:31:24.260
and he put it onto the shoulders of black people.
00:31:27.060
And that is the one thing that you cannot do in those circles.
00:31:30.420
So I think that's why when he eventually, you know, went to prison for his charges, they
00:31:36.440
all shouted with glee because they hated him from 2004.
00:31:40.100
This was just a way to get rid of him and move him off.
00:31:44.080
And if he wouldn't have taken that position, I wonder if he would have ever been charged.
00:31:47.780
Charged, and certainly even if he was charged, the track record shows that those same people
00:31:55.120
would have had his back and said, they're trying to take down one of our leaders and
00:32:02.380
But because he didn't go along with them, they were more than willing to hang him out to
00:32:08.820
So when we had the George Floyd riots, I mean, one thing that is missed is I don't know a
00:32:18.700
single white person that saw that video and said, oh, that's great.
00:32:26.080
I'm sure there were, but I don't know a single one.
00:32:37.500
And all of a sudden, half the country is being called a racist because they support it when
00:32:41.840
I don't, half the country wasn't supporting it.
00:32:49.160
And I think at least half the country knew there are good people that are actually marching,
00:32:59.880
They're just like, hey, I want to march because my community is in trouble.
00:33:05.480
But then the, the, the robberies and the burning of the cities, nobody did anything.
00:33:14.420
Just a few years later, two years later, where, I mean, are we the same people?
00:33:29.880
I mean, 2020 was obviously with COVID and everything else, but that, that summer, I think probably
00:33:38.020
red pilled a lot of people because even before George Floyd was, was killed with the COVID
00:33:44.800
lockdowns, as things were starting to open up, you, you saw how the media, corporate media
00:33:50.560
would see people they assume were Trump voters out at the beach and they would harass them.
00:33:56.840
And one of the guys would say, well, neither is your cameraman.
00:34:00.520
And then George Floyd was killed and the entire world changed.
00:34:04.340
And the same people who, um, you know, fast forward to January 6th would say political
00:34:19.920
They made excuses as cities burned, as buildings burned, as businesses were destroyed, as people
00:34:37.680
I think they probably wanted to say black lives matter or something like that.
00:34:40.180
And I think, I mean, the country was on the brink.
00:34:45.780
Um, I think things have gotten a little bit better since that, you know, that summer.
00:34:53.160
Um, we don't see as many statues being torn down, which is good.
00:35:00.840
I mean, look at what happened in Canada, you know, they went after those guys and everybody
00:35:06.480
kind of just kind of went back, you know, and like, Oh, let's forget about that.
00:35:10.180
Um, the power has changed and, and now we're just starting to see the street activism, uh,
00:35:21.140
You know, it's, it's seemingly just trying to ramp people up for the next election.
00:35:27.720
So, so, so I, I'd say this, I think we are, we are better off now than we were in the summer
00:35:35.040
Um, I think many of the issues around race and division still exists.
00:35:40.600
The left obviously will exploit anything, any perceived racial incident for their own
00:35:48.460
Uh, I think a couple of things that are signs of progress is that you're starting to see
00:35:56.060
And I'm thinking particularly, you know, governor DeSantis in Florida who are willing to say
00:36:01.800
at some point, this is enough where we're not doing this.
00:36:06.680
So whether his, the stop woke act or the stuff for Disney or, um, committing to funding the
00:36:14.020
police or committing to funding fatherhood initiatives.
00:36:16.520
I think those are all positive signs, but, and, and, and this is where I think, um, we
00:36:23.260
really need to, to assess where we are as a country.
00:36:26.560
When president Biden, before he came in, he said he wanted, he was running to, to save the
00:36:30.120
soul of a nation, but any nation who has its soul in the hands of politicians is already
00:36:38.300
And I think the rise of atheism and secularism, um, and politics as a religion is one of the
00:36:49.320
things that needs to be, um, corrected as we move forward.
00:36:53.300
And you know, and I know, um, you know, just like in Germany, the churches weren't destroyed
00:37:06.360
By the time Hitler got in, it took them six months before the churches were like, yeah,
00:37:10.620
let's take that picture of Christ off the altar and we'll put Hitler there.
00:37:14.180
Um, if you look at the American revolution, the churches were fighting the preachers that
00:37:26.040
It's usually the church fights against, uh, you know, whatever the people are, are, are
00:37:37.200
Um, some stand, but I think our churches now are so dead.
00:37:44.380
I mean, I, I've seen some, you know, mainline Protestant churches that I think the structures
00:37:49.960
will be better used as, you know, low income housing or recreation centers for kids because
00:37:57.220
Um, the churches have completely bought into whatever the new progressive agenda is.
00:38:03.860
I saw a church a couple of years ago that had one of its members basically host a drag
00:38:11.360
He was reading a story, a man dressed as a woman in drag on a, on a Sunday morning.
00:38:17.620
And I think that just goes to show that so many of these churches again have, have died.
00:38:22.480
They are whitewashed tombs and, and there's nothing of God going on in them, but they
00:38:29.000
draw on sort of the, the moral legitimacy of the Bible to, and lend it to politicians who
00:38:38.960
the only time they want to quote scriptures is when it serves their particular, you know,
00:38:45.120
So tell me, you write about, we have to have a biblical world for you.
00:38:49.860
Mm-hmm explain to people who don't know what a biblical worldview is.
00:38:53.620
Cause very few people, it's like, I think it's like 5% of the population now has a biblical
00:39:00.320
So, so, so when I use the term biblical worldview for me, what it means is, um, analyzing any
00:39:07.200
issue, politics and culture, social customs, public policy, new laws through the lens of
00:39:17.140
And there's certain things in which the scripture speaks to directly, certain things, not as
00:39:21.560
directly, but my ideas about, you know, the nature of humanity.
00:39:39.360
Is there value inherent or is there value conditional?
00:39:41.760
Um, all of those things, as it relates to economics, as it relates to education, um, the, the notion
00:39:49.640
that parents and particularly fathers in the book of Ephesians and Ephesians six are given
00:39:55.220
the task to raise up their children in the fear and admonition of the Lord.
00:39:59.260
Um, those are all issues that are theological issues, but they intersect with our political
00:40:04.640
culture to the extent that these issues are being adjudicated on a day-to-day basis, um,
00:40:10.360
So, so for me, when I talk about, um, a biblical worldview, it's having my lenses, which I hope
00:40:19.580
to be corrective at all times, putting on the lens of the scripture to see the, the world
00:40:26.260
that's different than people who put on the lens of politics, for instance, to see the
00:40:31.500
So they, they would, again, even, you know, with the, the transgenderism stuff, they'll
00:40:38.240
say, Oh, even a Christian will say, Oh yeah, I see what Genesis one 27 says, but there are
00:40:43.440
people who identify or they feel in a particular way.
00:40:46.800
And since God is a God of love, loving a person means affirming whatever it is that they want.
00:40:52.820
And that's how they get from one particular scripture about God being love.
00:40:57.060
And they affirm all different types of things that the Bible speaks again.
00:41:05.200
Well, it's not love because, um, sometimes love is correction.
00:41:10.480
Um, allow anyone who's raised children knows that, I mean, your kids may want to eat, um,
00:41:19.440
Allowing them to do that is not love in the same way.
00:41:22.200
Um, allowing them to mutilate their bodies or pump themselves full of drugs because they
00:41:28.040
feel a certain discomfort with their body, uh, is not love.
00:41:31.480
So, so when I advocate for a biblical worldview, I'm not of the position that every American
00:41:40.180
I'm not saying that, that I would, I would love that.
00:41:42.740
But what I'm saying is as a, as a, as a Christian, I believe that the designer gets to be the
00:41:52.940
There's no way that someone is going to, going to, in fact, it takes more faith, quote
00:41:58.540
unquote, to believe that the complexity of the world we see is just happenstance.
00:42:05.360
So, so I'm trying to use a biblical worldview to describe the world as it is in the same
00:42:11.960
If I was trying to describe gravity, you don't have to believe in gravity.
00:42:17.960
Just know that when you throw the apple up in the air, it's going to come down and hit
00:42:22.320
And in the same way, if you try to subvert God's design for, for humanity, for civilizations,
00:42:30.440
for the ways that man and woman interact, for how children are born, you're going to
00:42:35.940
have problems and you're going to constantly be getting hit in the head with apples.
00:42:41.460
I mean, I think people would all agree the best justice system would be automatic.
00:42:53.480
And, and in some ways, I mean, that's the way God set it up.
00:43:10.320
So when you say, no, man is not like that, it's going to fail and, and kill a lot of people
00:43:20.900
And I think you see that it's not a punishment.
00:43:24.660
As I said, it's the same as if you deny gravity.
00:43:26.720
Um, and that's why I think if to the extent that people talk about, you know, what, what
00:43:32.100
should be on the conservative political agenda for me is simple.
00:43:35.560
It is the restoration and protection of the natural moral and social order nature's laws
00:43:46.860
That's, that's what we need because to the extent that we subvert those things, we see
00:43:53.980
Glenn, I'm telling you, and I've said this to people before in 10, 15 years, we're going
00:43:58.460
to have a generational children who look back at adults today and say, why did you let me
00:44:09.440
I told you I wanted to, what was wrong with you.
00:44:14.220
You were supposed to love me by protecting me from myself.
00:44:18.600
But because in our culture, love is expressed through complete, total and unquestioning affirmation.
00:44:26.020
There are adults here today who at the slightest sign of a child expressing discomfort with their
00:44:32.840
body, assume that that child is, is a different sex.
00:44:36.440
So, and, and schools are aiding and abetting in that.
00:44:40.500
And sometimes they're doing it behind the parents' back.
00:44:43.220
So as a parent, especially like parents who have girls, you, you send your, your, your
00:44:51.060
She likes to play basketball and get dirty with the boys.
00:44:57.500
And they, and they're telling you that they're doing it for her benefit.
00:45:01.300
And to the extent that we've become silent on those things, we are going to have a heavy,
00:45:08.380
I think we're already paying a higher price than any of us thought just for giving trophies
00:45:33.160
However, between gas and meat, I'm not sure I can afford, oh, I'm going to throw up a
00:45:46.120
Anyway, American Wagyu burgers made from some of the best beef you've ever tasted in your
00:45:52.260
And it's American, good ranchers, American Wagyu raised right here in the United States.
00:45:57.860
And it, uh, it produces the buttery texture that all of us who love steaks crave.
00:46:05.480
The burgers are individually wrapped so you can easily pull them out, cook them on the
00:46:11.760
And with meat prices soaring, may I suggest good ranchers?
00:46:16.040
Because when you subscribe, you, I don't know how they're going to stay open.
00:46:20.460
You lock in your price and get $25 off of every box for the life of your subscription.
00:46:33.580
Two pounds of free Wagyu burgers and zero inflation.
00:46:38.720
This helps American ranchers and saves you money.

00:46:52.100
If you look at a free market, it is, you know, when I started this, um, the blaze, everybody
00:47:11.120
I know if you're going to change things, you have to risk.
00:47:26.000
How is this generation, which there are no consequences for anything that you do as long as you say
00:47:35.320
the right things and you get a trophy without even trying.
00:47:40.340
How are they going to even understand a free market?
00:47:46.260
I think that remains to be seen, um, because we're in the middle of this right now, right?
00:47:51.340
COVID really exposed, um, the left's sort of worship at the altar of safety ism.
00:47:58.440
Um, now I expose the hypocrisy as well, because in the same moment, a mayor may be saying, or
00:48:03.980
a governor may be saying, you can't send your kids to school.
00:48:09.280
They were doing the very things that they told their citizens that they couldn't do.
00:48:13.600
But like, I think of it, you know, I grew up in New York as a New Yorker and New York
00:48:18.800
It was rough and tumble and it was the land of graffiti on the trains and beatboxing and
00:48:27.780
And I just see the way the city has become and the people have become so docile where you
00:48:33.460
have, frankly, unimpressive bureaucrats like Bill de Blasio who tell you that he, he can
00:48:41.720
And that in order to do that, you lived in New York, nobody can do that.
00:48:45.940
You better have common sense and your wits about you.
00:48:48.800
And now he can't protect you from the things that he's responsible for.
00:48:53.180
So street crime, but he's saying he can protect you from a virus.
00:48:59.420
And to see people again in the city I grew up in just willingly give it away because
00:49:06.000
of their fear to the point where I think just maybe a week ago, like school kids were still
00:49:11.020
having to wear masks while the rest of the country has opened up.
00:49:14.820
The current mayor, Eric Adams, is saying, well, we're in New York, we're different.
00:49:26.880
And I think that the long COVID is really a psychological condition.
00:49:33.820
And we're going to see the softening of the American citizenry, particularly in blue states
00:49:43.120
We're going to see that the impacts of that for years to come, because even now where
00:49:47.560
we where my family lives, the last time I took the kids to the playground, I'd say at
00:49:52.500
least 75 percent of the children were wearing masks.
00:49:57.920
We haven't worn masks in Texas for like two years.
00:50:03.340
I mean, it's you hear or travel to other states that are red and you're like are blue.
00:50:20.840
And I think the politicians who have caused that fear and anxiety, quite frankly, owe
00:50:28.260
their citizens an apology because now you see people like they have anxious to even pull
00:50:36.180
And I think that's we never understood the people who'd come from China after the bird
00:50:56.560
First of all, tell me what the Squire agenda is.
00:51:01.560
So I wrote this column about the Squire's agenda.
00:51:14.440
I leveled a light critique of the I don't think you're like people would define today
00:51:24.480
But I talked about the impact of hip hop culture, the worst elements of hip hop culture, which
00:51:31.940
I think could be, you know, people like Snoop Dogg would be the archetype of that.
00:51:36.460
And I said, again, it was the show, the halftime show itself wasn't bad, but it's the impact
00:51:44.000
of, you know, 30 plus years of violence and degradation and drug abuse sort of pumped into
00:51:51.960
the American mainstream, but particularly like mainlined right into the black community.
00:51:55.820
And I said something about it and somebody, you know, said something critical and they basically
00:52:02.120
said, well, people like him who talk like this, they have a different agenda.
00:52:07.760
And at first I was going to push back and say, well, I don't have an agenda.
00:52:16.300
As someone who's associated, you know, on the right as a conservative, which I never grew
00:52:25.160
One of the things I think conservatives fail to do is to argue vigorously for the things
00:52:36.160
They argue more about the things we disagree on.
00:52:46.920
So what I did in that piece when I talked about my agenda is to say it's the restoration
00:52:55.720
Acknowledgement of God as the creator of this world and an authority higher than government.
00:53:13.400
Part of it dealt directly with the issue, you know, hip hop culture and its excesses.
00:53:18.920
And I remember saying something to the effect of, you know, some of the issues, some of
00:53:27.960
The ones that people would acknowledge are degrading.
00:53:31.020
My children may be exposed to those things at some point.
00:53:35.020
But I said in that piece, but I'll be damned, literally, if I'm the one that feeds it to them.
00:53:42.460
So for me, part of that agenda is to say, personally, and as a community, as a black American, as
00:53:51.540
an American, as a Christian, we have to be clear on what our standards are.
00:53:57.700
And when those standards are not being met, certain things have to be put out of the household.
00:54:02.500
Glenn, as someone I know familiar with your Bible, in the Old Testament, you would see
00:54:07.760
over and over again, when God either lays out a law or lays down a punishment, it would
00:54:13.800
say something to the effect of, punish this person swiftly, whatever that punishment was,
00:54:23.520
And what I want to say in my agenda is, these are the things that I'm for, right?
00:54:30.140
I'm for right relationships between individuals and different ethnic backgrounds.
00:54:51.000
Off air, we were talking about, you know, I had a book of essays from a lot of, you know,
00:54:55.120
a number of black leaders around the turn of the century, you know, 19th century.
00:54:59.680
And one of the things that is immediate to me that I noticed is that even when they weren't
00:55:04.860
talking about religion specifically, whether they were talking about economics, entrepreneurship,
00:55:11.640
the relations between black and white, all of those things had an aspect of public morality.
00:55:17.800
We are losing that because all of our conversations about public policy are framed with respect to materialism.
00:55:30.040
This person committed a crime because they don't have, you know, enough X, Y, and Z.
00:55:36.340
If they just had more resources, then they wouldn't engage in criminal behavior.
00:55:40.360
And you see that even within the church, you know, some conservative evangelicals that I follow
00:55:47.660
And I think, again, if Kenny's going to be in the public square with his false religion,
00:55:52.520
I should at least be just as vigorous pressing my case for what I believe.
00:55:57.220
So those are some of the things that encompass the Squire's agenda.
00:56:02.220
When Joe Biden said, you ain't black if you don't vote for me.
00:56:10.360
So what is political blackness and what is blackness?
00:56:17.560
So, you know, a lot of people remember, as you said, that phrase, you know, if you don't
00:56:28.020
What a lot of people don't realize is that after the president said that, and at the time
00:56:31.040
he was still running for the office, Nicole Hannah-Jones, Pulitzer Prize winner, New York
00:56:36.860
Times, 1619 creator, she tweeted and then deleted, let's not act as if we don't know the difference
00:56:43.440
between racial blackness and political blackness.
00:56:47.580
Now, I think she was criticized, but her assessment of what is, I think, was accurate because at
00:56:55.920
some point, I don't know when this took place, sometime between 1954 and 2004, there's been
00:57:02.260
a fusion of black racial identity and support of the Democratic Party to the point.
00:57:09.980
So, it's not just, oh, you know, black folk go 90% for Democrats.
00:57:16.500
It's the notion that to vote for a Democrat is the black political choice to make.
00:57:22.940
So, political blackness is the idea that part of one's sort of expression of your ethnic
00:57:32.480
identity is to support the Democratic Party and its agenda.
00:57:38.080
And when I talked about chocolate-covered Marxism, you see that in the way they frame abortion.
00:57:44.100
You see that in the way that they frame LGBT issues, even in the way that they frame climate
00:57:49.460
It's the racialization of the entire sort of political conversation.
00:57:55.240
In the piece, what I did, because I believe in attribution, right, I said, I don't want to
00:58:03.980
I want to call it Biden blackness and let the people who believe in it own it so that
00:58:11.940
So, when I talk about Biden blackness or Biden blacks, it's people who would argue, for instance,
00:58:18.600
in the same breath, they'll say, white people are the ultimate source of all of our oppression.
00:58:25.720
They are also the ultimate source of our liberation.
00:58:28.200
And if a black conservative comes along and says, hey, guys, I think we can do some things
00:58:34.520
for ourselves, people who adhere to Biden blackness will say, shut up, you white supremacists.
00:58:41.440
So, the black man who says, I can be self-sufficient, I have agency, I have some control over my life,
00:58:46.400
as much control as my white brother does, that person is derided as a white supremacist.
00:58:52.000
Larry Elder, Winsome Sears, Condoleezza Rice, all of these people have been called white supremacists
00:59:00.360
Biden blackness is also the notion that, as I said before, black liberation is found through
00:59:10.080
Biden blackness is the notion that a school today, not 1944, today, that's 90% black,
00:59:22.280
Even if you don't know how the children are performing, it's the notion, which Nicole Hannah
00:59:26.900
Jones believes in, that integration is the surest path to improve black educational outcomes.
00:59:35.160
So, Biden blackness is an ideology that's steeped in self-loathing, in confusion, and an inability
00:59:45.980
to properly assess the barriers to racial progress in today's America.
00:59:53.600
Can we ever get to a place where, you know, I'm a, one of the guys I simultaneously love
01:00:05.620
Progressive, I mean, just crazy, but he wasn't, he was an early progressive, so it hadn't really
01:00:14.740
gelled yet, and, you know, so while he's bad on eugenics, he invited Booker T to have dinner
01:00:23.160
with him at the White House, which was unheard of back then.
01:00:27.960
And the thing I love about him is his, is his speech that included, you know, the arena
01:00:39.700
Do we ever get to a point that, that Martin Luther King talked about, where I am not black or white,
01:00:50.880
It's, it's, we are, we, we are able to see you're either self-reliant or you're a slave
01:01:01.080
to something, and that could be to a bank, you know what I mean?
01:01:10.000
Um, I would caution conservatives in, in this way.
01:01:13.740
Sometimes, and I found this over, you know, over my life, the hardest thing in life to
01:01:21.580
So sometimes what conservatives will do, having been bombarded with decades of hearing that
01:01:26.880
they're racist and race this and race that is to say, well, we should do away with race
01:01:32.340
But as, again, as a Christian, like God made me and nothing that he made, am I going to
01:01:41.820
Am I going to say that acknowledging it is not good in the same way?
01:01:45.600
No one would come to us and say, well, look, the, the gender wars have been going on for
01:01:50.880
Let's not acknowledge gender and gender categories.
01:01:55.220
I think the problem with race is not that we acknowledge that you and I have different
01:02:00.520
It's when people come in and tell us that we should impart certain value to our different
01:02:06.380
ethnic backgrounds, that, um, someone of European ancestry is either at some period of time,
01:02:19.780
So I think to the extent that we can de-racialize our common humanity, that is a good thing just
01:02:34.700
So for instance, we talked about George Floyd and many people have heard of, obviously everybody's
01:02:39.280
Few people have heard of Tony Tempa who a few years before was in a similar situation with
01:02:51.300
And what happens is the racialization of policing makes it so that, um, the average American doesn't
01:03:01.060
even know any name of any white person who's been, you know, explained the, explain that
01:03:06.260
story and why people really need to know that story.
01:03:09.380
So Tony Tempa, I think he was a white man in mid forties.
01:03:14.040
I think he was having a psychotic or he was having a mental health, um, episode and the
01:03:21.460
And I think they, they knelt or sat on his back for about 13 minutes and eventually he
01:03:26.840
And at one point you can hear on their, on their body cameras, they made, they were making
01:03:36.800
It did not become a national story and actually it didn't really come out until after George
01:03:42.400
His mother didn't even know what happened to her son for a number of years.
01:03:46.280
I don't think anyone was charged, but it was one of these cases in which you see inappropriate
01:03:52.460
police behavior, but because Tony Tempa was the wrong color victim, his story will never
01:04:01.380
So I think deracializing some of these issues would allow us to say, okay, as a matter of public
01:04:06.480
policy, as a good governance, as citizens, what things do we think the state should are
01:04:14.760
And I think for conservatives, and I've said this before in different venues, I want to
01:04:18.880
see conservatives just as concerned about the fourth amendment when it comes to stop
01:04:23.040
and frisk and violations of civil rights in Baltimore and New York, as they are with the second
01:04:28.400
amendment, because you can't make the argument, well, I'm for stop and frisk because it's better
01:04:36.240
And some, if you stop enough guys, you'll get some off the road.
01:04:44.580
And you can't pick and choose because when it's red flag laws, or if the left ever said
01:04:52.340
every white guy who owns an AR-15 should expect a visit from the ATF, you would howl and say,
01:05:00.940
So I think deracializing our political culture ultimately would serve us in the long run.
01:05:09.520
Who are the black leaders, though, that you can really look to?
01:05:22.840
But he is, I mean, you know, he was a civil rights icon in the 60s.
01:05:27.880
Is there somebody, I mean, I think you are, is there somebody that is learning at the feet?
01:05:39.760
So, you know, so I like the way you framed it, right?
01:05:45.140
And then I'll talk about some of the up and coming guys.
01:05:47.980
Bob Woodson, Professor Glenn Lowry, who's gone from right to left to right.
01:05:56.120
Thomas Sowell, obviously, you know, Shelby Steele, John McWhorter, Jason Riley, Ian Rowe,
01:06:03.220
who a lot of people may not be as familiar with, who ran schools in the South Bronx,
01:06:08.200
who's really fought to rid the schoolhouse of that type of racial indoctrination, is another
01:06:16.660
On the younger side, individuals like Camille Foster, who does a lot of work in this space
01:06:23.540
and just talking about issues in life, not always with such, you know, heavy race emphasis.
01:06:33.800
To the extent that I'm counted in that group, I counted, you know, sort of a grace of God.
01:06:40.080
But there are people out there, obviously, you know, Jason Whitlock, who's a huge voice.
01:06:51.180
And I mean, tell me, because I'm optimistic long term, because I know true principles,
01:07:02.680
I don't know what it's going to take to get there.
01:07:13.100
I mean, honestly, though, 95% of that, I just attribute to my faith.
01:07:19.860
And I say, ultimately, if I believe the scriptures, then God is in control.
01:07:36.800
We're just in the state of going through the motions to get there.
01:07:44.080
Because I hear this from Christians, especially in the South, where some Christians believe in the rapture.
01:07:51.680
And they're like, hey, you're just going to be taken up.
01:08:01.160
And if it is, you know, I'll be the first to go, wow, should have listened to Bob because he's gone.
01:08:08.560
But so many people believe, well, God's got it.
01:08:22.340
But there's a lot of Christians who are like, yeah, well, God's got it.
01:08:27.200
And I think that hope and faith is a good thing.
01:08:33.080
But it's one of those things where, you know, faith without works is dead.
01:08:36.680
And when Jesus left his disciples, he told them to go and disciple the nations.
01:08:42.760
I think every time, particularly, we're talking about Christians here, speaks God's truth in the public square, whether that's, again, the nature of humanity, the nature of family, the nature of sin, that a father is not to be held to account for the sins of his son.
01:09:06.700
Whenever we speak those truths and we challenge a world, civil magistrates, if when we challenge Caesar and tell Caesar what you're doing is not right, that is part of us carrying out God's call in the public square.
01:09:27.780
You can't, I mean, you can't just, I mean, I love this, you know, we're going to have a new world.
01:09:32.960
Tell me, you know, it's not just we're going to reimagine.
01:09:42.400
So, so, so I think to the extent that, that believers do that, um, they are, um, carrying out their, their sacred duty and their sacred call.
01:09:51.300
I don't believe in the, I'm, I'm no more believer in the sit back on the couch and let everything happen.
01:10:03.220
Um, I think that is just as illogical as if I, if I was, you know, 20 years younger and say, you know what, I really desire to be married, but I'm not going to leave the house.
01:10:15.660
When he's ready, he's going to bring my wife to my door and I'll know.
01:10:19.300
It's like, no, you have to be out there in, in a position to meet the person that you say that you want.
01:10:26.160
And in the same way, we have to be out there willing to stand on and speak the truth boldly in love with grace, but without compromise.
01:10:36.500
Um, and I, and I think that's what every, certainly every believer's call is for that.
01:10:41.540
But even in the, in the spirit of common grace, because the gender binary, you know, was not exclusive to Christians.
01:10:49.540
Every person in every civilization, since the beginning of time has understood what a man and what a woman is.
01:10:56.420
And I've argued, particularly in an American context, we treat race as fixed and gender as fluid.
01:11:04.840
And to the extent that we take the thinking of 19th century slave owners, right around race.
01:11:13.720
And since this country's history, people of discernible African descent have been called African, Negro, Black, Colored, Creole, Octoroon, Quadroon, people of color, those last two people of color, right?
01:11:29.440
Mixed, mixed race, um, all of these things, African American.
01:11:34.020
But a woman in 42 BC was a woman in 1492, was a woman in 1682, was a woman in 1982, and there's a woman in 2022.
01:11:46.500
So the American desire to uphold the definitions of plantation owners and suppress the definitions of God is the ultimate act of white supremacy in my mind.
01:12:05.200
If you could have your way, what would you say is the most important thing for people to do?
01:12:16.840
Listening to the podcast right now, if everybody would do it, what would you say the most important thing is?
01:12:26.440
I would say the most important thing is to order your life to the extent possible according to God's design.
01:12:38.120
And I say this understanding that people may have different faith walks and different belief systems.
01:12:44.360
Um, so for me, what that looks like is acknowledging God as creator, right?
01:12:51.120
Um, acknowledge, acknowledging Christ as his son and savior, acknowledging my need for forgiveness and my need to repent.
01:12:59.640
And not, I said this to my daughter, dad, uh, I mean, it's not bad to, um, confess your privilege.
01:13:10.000
And I said to her, I confess to God almighty, not to man and not in public.
01:13:17.100
I ask him for forgiveness and I do it every day.
01:13:28.040
So, so, so, so getting, getting that build, those building blocks in order.
01:13:34.040
But as you, again, for me, for me, that's the cornerstone, my spiritual faith.
01:13:39.780
But from there, it's again, looking at God's order and design for humanity.
01:13:49.160
So, so if you're a single man, find you a wife, marry her and have children, same single
01:13:57.740
If you have kids, understand that their education is your responsibility, right?
01:14:04.880
You, you may enlist the services of a school to help you with that.
01:14:09.740
I had this conversation with a teacher that told me, we've got it, Mr. Beck.
01:14:19.240
So, so it's putting those things in order because our, I like to think of society as
01:14:29.300
And if you were to cut us open and look inside, you would see some organs missing.
01:14:36.780
And what we need more than anything in our world is to put those things that God has
01:14:55.740
Just a reminder, I'd love you to rate and subscribe to the podcast and pass this on to a friend
