The NXR Podcast - THE LIVESTREAM - New Law REQUIRES Pronoun Use？

00:00:00.000 Leave us a five-star review on your favorite podcast platform.

00:00:03.820 I get it.

00:00:04.620 It's annoying.

00:00:05.380 Everybody asks, but I'm going to tell you why.

00:00:07.540 When you give us a positive review, what that does is it triggers the algorithm so that

00:00:12.440 our podcast shows up on more people's news feeds.

00:00:16.160 You and I both know that this ministry is willing to talk about things that most ministries

00:00:20.820 aren't.

00:00:21.580 We need this content for the glory of God to reach more people's ears.

00:00:26.840 hopefully in the last couple of weeks you've heard about the controversial colorado bill that aimed

00:00:34.920 to make misgendering someone a crime the bill met fierce resistance from local pastors and

00:00:41.740 christian leaders but ultimately was signed into law by the governor about a week ago

00:00:47.120 even though it was stripped of its most controversial portion a clause that would

00:00:52.080 have categorized parents as abusive for misgendering their own children, the law is still one of the

00:00:58.660 most aggressive in the land. The woke is not going away. Progressives have bet the House on radical

00:01:05.800 gender ideology and are committed to making the lives of ordinary Christian families hell 0.86

00:01:11.620 for as long as they can. Other Colorado bills, such as House Bill 1309, mandates that health 1.00

00:01:18.960 care providers cover every possible necessity for gender-affirming care, a set of surgeries

00:01:25.160 and treatments that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars per person. One way or another,

00:01:31.160 they will try to take your kids, close your business, and bankrupt your state, even if

00:01:37.500 they lose in the end. So today, we're going to discuss who is pushing these draconian laws,

00:01:44.240 what their real purpose is, and the clever ways that Christians are fighting back.

00:02:20.720 and dive into the topic and see what the elites in Colorado are up to. Tune in now.

00:02:25.820 welcome back it's wednesday it's white boy summer it's white pills i we're way up exciting exciting

00:02:41.060 things are happening three w's three w's in the chat white boy summer wednesday white pills uh

00:02:45.920 this one it's not it's not a white pill though unfortunately um it is a white pill here's the

00:02:51.560 advantage of it and here's why we're doing the episode so why do you guys talk about politics

00:02:55.080 so much? Why do you go into legislation? What's kind of the point of all of this? Well, the biggest

00:02:59.920 voter blocs that we have are, especially the conservative ones, and that's starting to change,

00:03:04.920 but they're generally the older crowd. You're thinking older millennials, Gen X, and boomers.

00:03:08.920 And there's a temptation when you think of someone that's maybe, say, 40, 50, 60 years old. They've

00:03:13.700 been around politics for a little while. They remember the impeachment of Bill Clinton. They

00:03:17.500 remember the Obama era. I mean, there's people like, this guy is the Antichrist. If you spell

00:03:22.040 out his name this way, you get 666. So they've seen a lot of it. They've seen a lot of culture

00:03:26.180 war stuff. They've seen the moral majority. And there definitely is a temptation to get jaded,

00:03:30.920 to say, well, that's politics as usual, or there's always going to be the left,

00:03:34.720 or it's always going to be the right. But ultimately, at the end of the day,

00:03:37.920 that's just politics. And in my life here in the ground, practically, I feel like it kind of looks

00:03:42.360 the same now. Inflation, cost of housing, and most certainly the millions of people that

00:03:48.400 clearly don't belong here. Those are starting to make a difference. But part of the reason to 0.99

00:03:52.660 really focus on it and to really drive home is because these stories and these bills are what

00:03:57.260 you, listener, need to use and need to be taking to other Christians. There are so many Christians

00:04:02.280 on the sidelines, and they're on the sidelines because they just don't see the battle for what 0.72

00:04:06.780 it is. It's kind of a saying, you know, a lot of conservatives, it's always, first, it's too early

00:04:10.940 to fight. Well, we don't want to get involved. It's too early. We don't know what's going on.

00:04:14.600 then it's okay yeah it's time to fight but not in that manner not in that way

00:04:18.360 and then stage three is well it was definitely time to fight about five years ago but now we're

00:04:22.500 in the gulag there's always some reason always something going on well we don't want to get

00:04:26.660 involved we don't want to bring the church in it things aren't so bad cultural capital save your 0.50

00:04:31.300 cultural capital worthless yep right and uh and stories like these bills like these not just one

00:04:37.860 person out there somewhere in the ether putting out a terrible bill lord knows there are people

00:04:42.040 I mean, there was a bill to imprison Americans just a couple weeks ago for boycotting Israel.

00:04:47.060 Now, to be fair, that was like a couple of people sponsored it after pushback.

00:04:50.180 It was pulled immediately.

00:04:51.020 It was not like hundreds of representatives and dozens of senators voted that into law.

00:04:55.520 Like that didn't happen.

00:04:56.720 We're talking about something that's actually now a law on the books in Colorado.

00:05:01.360 And we're talking about a state with millions of people, millions of Christians that now live under this.

00:05:05.960 And they're going to have to navigate an entirely new world. 0.75

00:05:09.020 Maybe you built a business for 30 years in Colorado.

00:05:12.040 That's your homeland.

00:05:12.960 It's where your grandparents lived and your great-grandparents,

00:05:15.320 and you've built something great there.

00:05:16.880 Now, all of a sudden, you're under risk,

00:05:18.400 and we'll get into how it would practically work on the ground.

00:05:21.160 All of a sudden, you're at risk of possibly losing all of that.

00:05:24.300 This stuff matters, and you need to be telling people,

00:05:26.860 guys, this is not business as usual.

00:05:28.960 Whatever's going on here and now has changed the landscape.

00:05:33.040 There are things going on.

00:05:34.000 It is a war against Christ.

00:05:35.240 It is a war against Christianity. 0.99

00:05:36.860 It's a war against heritage Americans. 0.99

00:05:38.920 It's a war against those who are native to America 1.00

00:05:41.300 by those from overseas and other countries and immigrants who want to displace us there's a war 0.98

00:05:46.100 going on and if there's a war going on far be it from anyone who has the resources who has the

00:05:52.060 capacity to not be involved in some way i mean come on world war ii like moms were growing gardens

00:05:57.300 right like they couldn't do much right they're not on the front lines today in 2025 they maybe

00:06:02.580 would be they weren't on the front lines but they were growing gardens they were helping out in some

00:06:07.440 way in some measure they were getting involved in what's going on colorado um i'm not the biggest

00:06:14.740 fan of focus on the family but they were a huge force for christianity for a long time they're

00:06:20.180 based in colorado springs colorado and in the 90s i believe the stat i've read this i think it was

00:06:26.660 the 90s that this was the case their influence in the state of colorado was so great that not a

00:06:33.420 single child entered the foster care system they were all adopted by christian families

00:06:38.200 across the board yeah now colorado we're focused on the family and ministries is headquartered

00:06:46.740 again like i'm not saying that it's they who dropped the ball that's my point not my point

00:06:52.220 here my point is yeah this is going to be interesting for a christian ministry which

00:06:55.800 is also a business to see what like is this going to destroy them are they going to capitulate are

00:07:01.320 Are they going to have to move?

00:07:02.560 And to your point, Wes, this is not just the big industries.

00:07:05.380 They will go after the mom and pops like they did with the cake bakers

00:07:09.480 because they're the ones that don't have the resources to defend themselves. 0.93

00:07:12.640 Exactly.

00:07:13.200 Like Daily Wire did a lawsuit against the Biden administration

00:07:15.500 with the vaccine mandate because they could.

00:07:18.160 They had the legal resources.

00:07:19.360 They had the money to do so.

00:07:20.440 But laws like these disproportionately affect good Christians,

00:07:23.920 good churches, et cetera, on the ground.

00:07:26.320 Some people are asking, how did Colorado get this way?

00:07:28.540 I think one inclination could be, well, it was when they legalized weed.

00:07:32.740 So you legalized weed.

00:07:33.580 This was 2014, I want to say.

00:07:35.020 Yeah, I think about then.

00:07:35.540 Close to one of the first, I think the first state in the union.

00:07:38.100 Because it was kind of a swing state for a while there.

00:07:39.880 Yep, it was.

00:07:41.020 And they legalized it, and so that became kind of the state where people went to get high.

00:07:46.040 I looked at the voting track records and everything like that.

00:07:48.500 They have just been majority Democrat for a long time.

00:07:51.860 And I really, it's kind of a silly reason, but it's a lot of beautiful states that have been that way.

00:07:56.660 up and down the west coast is certainly one of them i would attribute it to kind of a northern

00:08:01.640 yankee elitism on the east coast but a lot of beautiful states like colorado there's most

00:08:06.740 certainly utah is kind of saved by the mormons but i mean we were in salt lake city and we were

00:08:11.200 in ogden last year i've seen so many pride flags in my life yeah like it was and this was 2024

00:08:16.960 so this is not like 2022 where ogden is practically down the street but not new christendom but nope

00:08:22.620 the city of augen the city of augen fire no no but the city of audience seriously like as as we've

00:08:29.520 gone because they hold their conference in june right right like i don't know if that's intentional

00:08:33.640 but when we go it's super duper gay not new christendom but hogden nope so so yeah colorado

00:08:40.860 has been like that for a long time and uh gentlemen i regret to inform you women there's a couple you 0.63

00:08:48.040 know groups of suspects where you try to be equal offenders but uh the colorado legislator let me

00:08:53.020 pull up the statistics here you don't have them nate but i'll just read them off so their house

00:08:57.280 of representatives so we talked about this a couple weeks ago different states will have

00:09:01.340 different sizes of the senate and the house and everything like that so in colorado there are 65

00:09:05.400 representatives 38 women 27 men it's one of the highest ratios in the country so you're at close

00:09:12.800 to, I think, 72% or about probably close to 65, 70% of their House of Representatives being

00:09:19.960 women. Of those groups of the two sides, so Democrats have a super majority in the Texas

00:09:26.000 House, 72% of the Democrats are women. So carrying it out, well, who are these women? They're your 1.00

00:09:32.740 conservatives, right? They're Republicans. Nope. 72% of the Democrats are women. 28% of the

00:09:38.740 republicans that are in the house are women so the republican party in colorado majority men

00:09:44.680 it's a lot of kind of like the you know you got your uh got your f-150 your toyota tacoma you got

00:09:50.600 your your hiking gear it's kind of like those guys representing the rural areas they're kind of the

00:09:55.820 republican representatives and then it's the big cities it's the denver it's the boulder

00:09:59.400 disproportionately uh putting women up as representatives in colorado the speaker of 0.98

00:10:04.760 house the majority leader the assistant majority leader the majority caucus co-chair both of them 0.96

00:10:10.280 the majority co-whip and the minority leader are all women and so this bill bills can originate

00:10:17.080 either in a house or a senate this is where you'll see like house bill so-and-so number

00:10:20.760 senate bill so-and-so number this is a bill that originated in a woman dominated house of 0.99

00:10:27.160 representatives nate let's go ahead and show image number one so two two sponsors for each bill two 1.00

00:10:34.440 two in the House, two in the Senate. Here's your picture of the people that put this bill forward.

00:10:41.780 That'll do. This is kind of the aura of like you go into the principal's office and get some

00:10:47.340 superintendents there and like, all right, champ, why don't you go ahead and have a seat? And they're

00:10:51.280 smiling, but it's not a good smile. Guys, women are destroying this country. Yes. Women in 1.00

00:10:59.120 leadership all over and i i see it here in texas when i pay attention to texas politics 1.00

00:11:03.820 i mean nancy mace yesterday the house of representatives that's at the federal level

00:11:08.600 um we have got to quickly yeah quickly quickly quickly become very comfortable with saying

00:11:15.280 she has no place here she should not be writing laws she should not be the leader of the house

00:11:20.980 she should not be elected this position and if they keep and if you keep doing this

00:11:25.080 we will be destroyed families will be destroyed the state itself its budget its services its 1.00

00:11:30.760 borders its protections its economy they will be destroyed it's either we keep putting women in 1.00

00:11:36.640 office keep promoting them or we um we do that and we're gonna lose or the other side we stop 1.00

00:11:43.220 doing that and we win like those are your two choices yeah with those four individuals how

00:11:47.680 many cats do you think combined the ownership because i'm thinking how many cats and how many

00:11:53.280 subarus i think yeah for sure the subarus but i think we could get into triple triple digits of

00:11:59.320 cats on those just for the record i'm a subaru respecter you are i lived in the northwest there's

00:12:04.480 nothing better in the snow just gonna throw that out there joel and i are both just holding back

00:12:10.180 we'll just move right along i don't own one in texas but if you're in snow i'm just gonna say

00:12:14.200 it okay it's the best fair enough all right yeah there is that you're right there is a theme of

00:12:19.400 like definitely women in civil leadership but also like uh beauty like geographic physical beauty

00:12:25.860 you know and liberals uh being attracted to it and i think part of that is like conservatives 0.91

00:12:31.180 have lost you know the thread of um you know like we don't need to burn tires in the backyard to own

00:12:37.000 the libs you know that we can actually care about uh conserving you know the environment and not

00:12:41.980 doing it through stupid ways you know but doing things that actually that actually help so part

00:12:46.500 of it is you know guys who are more conservative not really appreciating you know god's creation 0.99

00:12:51.360 and beauty in the ways that we should but then part of it also i think is uh that the liberal

00:12:55.560 i'll just i don't know people get upset but it's true so i'll just say it the liberal is going to

00:13:01.440 hell and most of them know it if you know like when they lay they'll they'll screech into the 0.94

00:13:08.000 void you know online on x and stuff like that and like you're the one who's going to hell you know

00:13:12.160 like jesus was a socialist you know and blah blah blah blah but um but in their heart of hearts when

00:13:18.080 they lay their pillow you know their head on their pillow at night like they their guilt condemns them

00:13:22.160 they know that they're not um they know that they don't have a right relationship with god and so my

00:13:27.720 point is um it makes sense that they would do everything they can to live in the most beautiful

00:13:32.820 places on earth because it's the only beauty they'll ever see this life is i mean truly yolo

00:13:37.920 like this is um this is the closest to heaven they'll ever come you know so living in the

00:13:43.500 mountains or living by the coast or you know those kinds of things and then also i would add to that

00:13:48.380 liberals you know in terms of per capita obviously you can find this exception here that exception

00:13:53.300 there but um in on the whole liberals don't have kids and so they constantly have at their disposal

00:14:00.540 um you know a lower cost of living they don't have children you know dependents and then also

00:14:06.260 they can have two incomes you know that like two men in a homosexual relationship you know both

00:14:11.720 having high you know paid jobs and and they're less discriminated against you know so like

00:14:17.000 so the woman can go in and take the job that you know that a man applied for who's even more 0.97

00:14:21.900 qualified but she gets it instead because we live in a country that hates men especially white men 0.99

00:14:27.080 um or you know two homosexuals can you know talk about how gay they are and get a better job you 0.99

00:14:32.800 know it's like i i need a raise well why your performance hasn't changed at work yes but um 0.97

00:14:38.680 but i'm super gay it's like oh well why did you say i'm a member of a discriminated community yeah

00:14:44.120 we'll have a raise on your check next week and so uh so literally like i mean there there really are

00:14:49.100 um advantages monetary event like you uh can have dual income because you don't have kids to take

00:14:55.000 care of you have lower expenses because you don't have kids to take care of you get better jobs 0.94

00:14:59.560 because you're a woman and we live in a world that hates men, or you're gay and we live in a world 0.99

00:15:04.200 that worships gays. And so you actually can afford to live in some of these beautiful places that a 0.98

00:15:10.680 lot of conservatives that have a wife that stays at home and five children cannot. So that's part

00:15:15.140 of it. And then also you feel a sense of like, I must live in these beautiful places because I've

00:15:19.800 got 80 years on God's green earth. And I know in my heart of hearts that as soon as that's done,

00:15:24.280 I'm going to hell. And so, you know, living in the Rockies is the closest to heaven I'll ever get.

00:15:29.000 amen we got to hit this this is great this is we'll be talking about this for a minute

00:15:33.920 joe you want to read it yeah ben huffsteadler uh super chat five hundred dollars let me just

00:15:40.060 pause for a moment there's your bar all right listen to me chat listen to you mark me listen

00:15:47.940 to me listen to me good um these two dollar super chats guys ben huffsteadler is coming in

00:15:54.180 with 500 strong right so i want to see five and i'm just kidding we appreciate everyone's

00:16:01.280 camera we yeah michael's like let me get out of this uh we appreciate everyone's generosity two

00:16:07.440 dollars uh it means a lot but i'm not gonna lie five hundred dollars is a lot so ben huffsteadler

00:16:12.080 um incredibly generous thank you brother we really appreciate this he says uh it is important to

00:16:18.840 communicate with your lawmakers so few reach out and express their thoughts to them this is due

00:16:25.820 to so few engaged in the daily happenings of their government from the town level all the way to the

00:16:32.820 federal level engage men we are only ever ever one generation away from losing our freedom or what is

00:16:40.660 left of it now stay strong right response ministries amen thanks man we really we have been talking

00:16:46.740 about this a lot yeah we have people have got to get involved and here's a tension and we were

00:16:51.240 we were just talking about this yesterday you and i just had a meeting with two gentlemen about

00:16:54.820 local politics and getting involved here's the tension guys i recognize that the solution is

00:16:59.680 probably not going to come through local politics like just being perfectly honest like right now

00:17:03.840 and we're going to take 50 years we're going to gain ground here and gain ground there and put

00:17:07.640 forward big bills and advocate for them that just that's going to take forever at some level too

00:17:13.620 you also just run up against monetary problems. George Soros, like his foundation will continue.

00:17:17.780 His son's carrying on his values. Like at a certain level, there are just roadblocks. And so

00:17:21.700 we look at it and I've had this thought, like, it's just impossible. Like, it's just so ingrained

00:17:27.320 in us that, oh yeah, you know, women should be in office and women should be speaker of the house. 1.00

00:17:31.440 That's ingrained in our culture. Going then backwards against that, you know, that, well, 1.00

00:17:36.680 maybe women shouldn't be. Same thing with pluralism. Hey, we're a Christian nation. 1.00

00:17:40.080 and i mean there's muslims in the texas house of representatives right now like i don't know texas

00:17:45.800 it's a great place for for islam we want to be a part of it but here's the deal so it doesn't look 0.96

00:17:51.660 like there's any avenue to win there but we can't abandon it and it kind of sucks like it's kind of

00:17:57.020 one of those things where it's like you're waiting for the hail mary or like the bottom of the ninth

00:18:00.600 gandalf to come back look for my coming at dawn on the fifth day but aragorn literally has to put

00:18:05.880 up a stand for as long as he can and it's actually by making that stand that's true for long enough

00:18:11.020 that he paves the way for the christian prince whoever it's going to be our help comes from the

00:18:16.060 lord and i think in god's grace he has a plan for the west but here's the deal local politics are

00:18:21.480 the means that we actually survive that long blue states are getting bluer red states are getting

00:18:26.780 redder well red states are they're not getting purple they're getting purple they're it's going

00:18:33.240 slower than the blue states as far as the progression goes so which matters just for

00:18:37.660 the record like think about this all right so you're on the titanic and you know you've got

00:18:41.920 five little children and you're putting them to bed and you know the ship's going down like you've

00:18:46.560 caught where the kids are clueless they don't know anything you're reading the bedtime story you know

00:18:50.560 and um and you know like but you know like the ship's going down and there's no way to save it

00:18:56.100 and they're all out of lifeboats um i really do believe that there is an obligation to say okay

00:19:01.780 the ship's going down and we're going to die. But I'm going to move to the portion of the ship

00:19:08.920 that goes down last. And I'm going to bring my children with me. I'm going to try to prolong

00:19:16.260 and protect my children for as long as I can. So even if it is, number one, we have the God factor.

00:19:23.700 And so number one, behave like a Christian, believe like a Christian. God can win by many

00:19:28.660 or by few. So number one, this scenario that I'm painting is not our scenario because we don't know

00:19:35.220 that the West is going to fall. We don't know that. We don't know that. God has been exceedingly

00:19:42.720 merciful and he could continue to completely surprise us and shock us and give us mercy yet

00:19:49.720 again. So number one, we don't know that the country is going down. But number two, what I

00:19:53.340 was going to say is even if it was uh then we have a duty to go down fighting and especially for those

00:19:59.640 of you who are fathers um moving uh to uh the side of the ship that goes down last right to prolong

00:20:07.520 the lives of your wives and children as long as you possibly can um so like i when i hear christians

00:20:15.120 say like well you know um the whole the whole nation's getting more liberal and so it really

00:20:20.400 doesn't matter if i live in colorado or if i live in you know idaho and i'm like it kind of does

00:20:27.400 actually matter like especially when you think of think of it from this perspective like let's say

00:20:32.860 you have a child who's you know eight years old all right and so in 10 years they're going to be

00:20:37.560 18 um well right now while they're eight uh you have a much stronger likelihood of losing that

00:20:44.940 child like actually losing them in a state like minnesota um in a state like colorado in a state

00:20:51.220 like california uh whereas even if idaho or utah or whatever even you know kansas oklahoma even if

00:20:59.760 it does go down eventually it may not go down in the next 10 years and all you need is 10 years

00:21:06.360 for your children so in in the macro picture um yeah like um god has to do something um or the

00:21:14.680 whole country will be destroyed that's certainly true but uh but thinking you know um in in the

00:21:22.060 more the micro picture as a father and your fatherly obligations 10 years can make the

00:21:27.820 difference in you keeping your kids yeah so if you think like well this state's just 10 years

00:21:32.060 behind the other state yeah that's huge yeah that's huge that is that is that literally could

00:21:37.300 be the difference in your child being taken or not right or building a business you unable to

00:21:42.460 successfully build something in california due to taxes and legislation and regulation or you're

00:21:46.960 able to successfully build something and then actually fund local candidates to give yourself

00:21:50.920 more of a chance just to illustrate ben's point nate can you scroll up we had two comments one 0.98

00:21:55.620 from leah i think lay lay michael you're bilingual not that bilingual i'm just gonna say lay shite 1.00

00:22:07.440 shite shite oh the last name lee lee shite all right lee shite thanks for your comment uh they 1.00

00:22:14.620 said we in my small town successfully managed to get a transgender town manager to resign 1.00

00:22:19.580 it was very difficult battle the commies were very active there was one above that and there

00:22:23.740 was this was striker and nope yeah down a little more uh striker said a long time supporter you

00:22:29.800 guys should look up illinois house bill 2827 homeschooling changes we fought back with the

00:22:34.480 most witness slips ever in illinois history and the bill was withdrawn these are practical examples

00:22:40.860 of people doing exactly what we're talking about like like we we can't tell you what bill is at

00:22:46.140 this stage in iowa and this stage in kansas and this stage in tennessee we can say and what you

00:22:50.720 need to be taking away from this is there is for sure something going on in your state if not

00:22:55.600 locally that you can be involved in step one find other people that agree with you on it find your

00:23:00.740 fight and then do something is it like email like if you if you have too much social anxiety to write

00:23:05.960 an email then you're not going to be in the fight i don't know what to tell you but start writing an

00:23:09.600 email make phone call like those things people are telling stories in the chat hey this got withdrawn

00:23:15.260 my town now has a better manager hey this bill that would have crushed homeschooling is actually

00:23:19.740 no longer a thing hey property taxes here in texas this that and the other the pushback on

00:23:24.580 this colorado bill which we'll talk about in a minute it got a provision pulled off of it because

00:23:28.800 are so controversial that have designated parents who misgender their children as abusive right and

00:23:33.920 that was pushback from pastors like chase davis other guys in colorado christians who said we

00:23:39.360 won't stand for that and it is hard and you don't win every battle you can lobby a lawmaker we did

00:23:44.640 this in texas with an abolition bill they still killed the bill so it's not a guaranteed fight

00:23:49.280 like oh just get out there and we'll win no we have decades worth of work ahead of us long hours

00:23:53.940 But like you said, Joel, it actually matters.

00:23:56.420 Like even if all said and done, it's God's will that the West would go through a long

00:24:00.980 stage of apostasy and destruction and all of these different things, better to have

00:24:06.760 time to prepare and set your family up than just throw your hands up and say, eh, what

00:24:11.540 could we have done?

00:26:46.000 works and kind of how it can start the slippery slope before we get into there you notice i noted 0.96

00:26:50.400 the four sponsors of the bill so the two sponsors in the house which are both women and then the

00:26:54.700 two individuals that sponsored it in the senate one was a man one was a woman one was a man those

00:26:58.440 four sponsors but collectively they represent 127 cats 127 cats can confirm well let me read this

00:27:06.680 quote from this senator. And this is just, it's blasphemous, but this is, these are the people

00:27:13.440 that are writing your laws because Christians have abdicated it. So this is Senator Chris Colker 0.93

00:27:17.700 in Senate remarks on May 7th. I'm accountable to almighty God because I'm standing up for equality.

00:27:23.320 That's my decision one day, that my decisions one day, and I will stand before him and be

00:27:27.760 accountable. Well, this is what I believe. You ever see that movie Talladega Nights and you see

00:27:31.900 that section where they're talking at the dinner table and they're talking about who their favorite

00:27:34.960 version of jesus is i love baby jesus and the guy goes well i love leonard skinnard and jesus when

00:27:40.720 the angels are behind him and the choir is singing and he's playing free bird and so he comes back 0.72

00:27:44.720 well on my day of judgment i will be standing in front of trans i'm not even going to finish it 0.97

00:27:51.120 i don't know i don't know what i believe j-e-s-u-s that is blasphemous it's what i believe and i 0.91

00:27:57.360 believe that jesus god will look at me and say you stood up for people you stood up for those

00:28:00.720 who are less fortunate who struggled you may pass you may enter i encourage and i vote so this is

00:28:06.080 the one of the other senators the one man at least and guys i did early life checks i couldn't find

00:28:11.520 anything believe it or not all right i tried i looked but can i can i add something in there

00:28:17.120 wes um this is just anecdotal but about four years ago when we drove down when we moved down from

00:28:21.600 washington to texas um my father-in-law had been in the air force academy which was also in colorado

00:28:30.240 springs um before he had my wife and so on our way driving down from washington to texas we

00:28:37.100 stopped in colorado springs and we we did a tour of the air force academy thought that would be

00:28:40.940 super fun grandkids get to see it it was really neat um but we were there over a weekend and so

00:28:46.520 my wife's mom my mother-in-law said oh you guys should go to the church that we used to go to

00:28:51.120 when we lived in colorado springs well that's a great idea so that sunday when we were driving

00:28:55.480 down we went to that church and it was i've seen worse sermons like online but as far as personally

00:29:02.300 i've never been in a woker christian environment in my life and so that that representative that

00:29:09.120 you just quoted west senator senator i'm sorry he's getting his christian lingo from somewhere

00:29:15.260 right where is he getting it from yeah right and that religion of talladeganites yeah well

00:29:20.920 he told you will farrell from will farrell gosh that and that equality like we'll we'll have to

00:29:27.020 do an episode on it yeah that is just religious and it's in its commitment to it like guys i have

00:29:32.420 a commitment and it's not biblical christianity whether they're claiming to be a christian or

00:29:36.240 like this guy who's just kind of like using the religious language i mean they're literally like

00:29:40.420 their sacrament their works of righteousness what are they it's equality this man is using

00:29:45.360 liberty and equality yeah anytime somebody said like these are my highest you know my highest

00:29:51.200 ideals liberty and equality right um you can just go ahead and take it to the bank uh that that dude 0.95

00:29:56.720 wants to chop off the genitals of little boys that like i'm tired of sugarcoating it like we just have 0.95

00:30:02.340 to come to the point where we realize like yeah i believe that every human being is equal in the 0.99

00:30:07.340 sight of god with innate dignity and value um in the eternal sense in the ultimate spiritual sense

00:30:12.260 and I believe that in one nation under God, that when it comes to legislation, when it comes to

00:30:18.320 law, the judicial system, that there shouldn't be a certain class of citizens, you know, that can

00:30:23.700 get away with crimes. In another class, it's, you know, penalized, you know, beyond what the

00:30:28.940 punishment should be. So equality in the sight of God, equality under the law. Other than that,

00:30:33.280 equality is a myth. It's a myth. Not just equal outcomes, right? So we understand equity,

00:30:40.880 equal outcomes we understand the injustice in that right the idea that well everybody has to

00:30:46.140 end in the same position so if somebody you know doesn't work very hard you know or they started

00:30:51.680 you know 20 years later and somebody else like well they all have to end in the same place and

00:30:56.360 so that means we have to supplement we have to you know we have to do you know distribution we

00:31:00.580 have to take from somebody who worked really hard and give it to somebody else so that at the end of

00:31:04.240 the day, everybody gets the same prize. Everybody, you know, ends at the same position. So that's

00:31:11.740 equity, you know, equality of outcome. But here's the reality in the world that God actually made,

00:31:16.400 not your fantasy rainbow unicorn world, but the world that God actually made, equality of

00:31:21.100 opportunity is just as much of a myth as equality of outcome. We do not have equal opportunity from

00:31:27.660 birth, from the starting point with everybody else on the planet. I've never had equal opportunity

00:31:34.160 to play in the NBA as other individuals have

00:31:39.600 by virtue of the fact that for whatever reason

00:31:42.100 God didn't make me six foot seven.

00:31:44.580 He saw fit according to his good pleasure

00:31:46.700 and his sovereign will to make me like this

00:31:49.740 instead of-

00:31:50.900 But you are six foot one, to be fair.

00:31:52.240 I'm six foot one, yeah.

00:31:53.180 So it could be worse.

00:31:55.220 Right, it could be worse.

00:31:57.040 But it's not NBA status.

00:32:00.000 And so we don't have equal opportunity.

00:32:02.020 People across the planet don't have equal intelligence.

00:32:06.280 They don't have equal physical speed, agility, height.

00:32:10.320 We don't have equal health.

00:32:12.720 I mean, some people are born, sadly, with lifelong health conditions

00:32:18.980 that they're going to be at a disadvantage over the course of their entire life.

00:32:24.180 So equality of outcome, equity, is certainly not only a myth but unjust,

00:32:28.640 But then also equality of opportunity is a myth. It doesn't exist. God made a world

00:32:34.320 that includes hierarchy. It includes hierarchy. And every time we hear that word, we think,

00:32:40.300 oh, we just immediately associate it with injustice. What makes hierarchy unjust is when

00:32:45.280 those at the top are behaving in such a way that they're exploiting those below. When they're

00:32:52.120 behaving in a way that is wicked, then that is unjust. But there's nothing unjust about God.

00:32:58.000 the potter reserving. He's the potter reserving the right to make out of the same lump of clay.

00:33:03.640 Some people, obviously Romans 9 is speaking about those who are South Asian, you know, 0.91

00:33:08.180 the redeemed versus the reprobate. He makes some for noble purposes and some for common use.

00:33:13.760 But that same potter also, in a temporal sense, it is also his prerogative. It's his right to make

00:33:19.900 some people with 150 IQ and some people with 120 and then some people with 80 and then some people, 0.99

00:33:25.660 sadly the worst is uh with 100 you know the just the quintessential midwit you know who's um like 0.74

00:33:32.200 honestly like if you have 80 iq you are probably far less of a detriment to society than the person 0.98

00:33:38.500 with the the 100 i mean with a master's degree 100 iq 100 iq that guy yeah and a super room sorry 0.92

00:33:45.460 michael but like that guy is a terror on the world that is the quintessential midwit who who makes 0.78

00:33:50.900 everything terrible right um but my point is not equal because he thinks he knows more this has 0.88

00:33:56.720 been studied it's called the dunning-kruger effect there's a lot of people i mean the distribution of

00:34:00.660 iq most people are in the middle and it's a big temptation to think you know more to be proud to

00:34:05.920 be arrogant like oh i know what we should do and a lot of progressives that's generally the area

00:34:10.740 they fall they are relatively educated they're relatively intelligent but they think themselves 0.99

00:34:14.820 wiser than they are right and they do stupid things and on the equality piece to connect it 0.98

00:34:19.100 to what i said about the women in the legislator women have a stronger bent towards equality but 0.99

00:34:23.620 that's part of their nature when it relates to children my wife's very equal with our children 1.00

00:34:27.300 right berries she's given one berries and the other she's fair and she shares with them now

00:34:31.280 but take that inclination which is good and our kids love it about her and she does it well

00:34:35.060 take that inclination to legislation and what you have to do is you can see them trying to

00:34:40.160 legislate and i'm going to read some sections from this bill in a minute here well uh everyone

00:34:44.700 in colorado is not equal and that everyone has all that that opportunity all of that final

00:34:49.080 outcomes so we're going to use the weight of the law to try to impress upon them and the only way

00:34:53.840 to do that when i mean you just you have a kind of flat bare level of society that people are

00:34:59.520 rising above we got to push down you say no you have to hire these people you have to rent to 0.98

00:35:05.660 them you have to give them x you have to give them y that is a feminine instinct that destroys 0.64

00:35:10.940 always society at scale here's another great point in the chat john dupree who's a friend of

00:35:16.100 ours and we appreciate very much he said we used to live his family we used to live in colorado

00:35:22.420 from 2005 to 2013 when the state turned blue was when the state went to mail in only voting

00:35:29.920 and and that is true and it gets to the point that we are making and you might think like well

00:35:35.420 how do you connect those dots well i'll do my best um it gets to equality um like the idea of

00:35:44.000 of mail-in ballots and mail-in voting is well you know but some people aren't going to take the time

00:35:50.000 you know to spend half an hour right getting into their car or remember all the stuff during you

00:35:55.120 know the 2020 election we're like well it's not fair that you have to show uh an id in order to 1.00

00:36:00.560 vote because we all know that black people don't know how to get a driver's license and you know 0.99

00:36:05.360 and the republicans we you know rightfully so we're having a field day with it saying like 0.92

00:36:09.620 that's the most racist if there is such a thing as racism you guys you nailed it um i'm pretty

00:36:14.800 sure black people can get uh an id they can get a driver's license but that but that's that's the

00:36:20.840 concept for the liberal is uh well we need to make voting as easy as possible because whether it's

00:36:27.600 people not able to get a driver's license which i'm i'm not convinced of whatsoever or uh just

00:36:33.220 simply the inconvenience. They're not going to take 30 minutes out of their day and take 15

00:36:38.760 seconds to look up on their phone where to go to vote. But we need everyone's voice. Here's the

00:36:45.360 deal. This is crazy. You actually don't. In fact, I would go so far to say you actually want to

00:36:53.080 avoid getting everyone's voice. You do not want the peanut gallery dictating the direction of 1.00

00:37:00.540 your state voting i for one i'm like let's make voting as difficult as possible defiant baptist

00:37:07.820 just said let's make like harder well voting voting is just too inconvenient and it's too

00:37:13.280 complex it's too complicated it's too difficult and so we're going to do mail-in ballots okay

00:37:18.000 then you've just destroyed your state because essentially what you've said is we're going to 0.99

00:37:21.940 get the stupidest people in our state and make sure that their voice is heard and here's the 0.98

00:37:27.700 deal that person who like because it's this is your sacred democracy at work here uh friends 1.00

00:37:34.440 this is your sacred democracy so you're talking about somebody with adiq somebody who is on

00:37:39.960 welfare so they're not paying taxes they're literally they're they're a drain on the tax

00:37:44.440 system so they're taking tax money um they uh they're not working they're not intelligent they

00:37:50.580 aren't even willing to get in a car and drive for 15 minutes to go to a voting booth and you're

00:37:56.660 saying but we have got to hear that person's voice and that person's voice this voice that

00:38:01.880 we've just got to hear from um is going to have the same voting power as another man who started

00:38:08.200 his own business who actually pays for the welfare that this other man takes is raising five children

00:38:13.560 who are all going to work lord willing one day and actually make sure that uh that social security

00:38:19.220 you know is still there which it probably won't be but you know hypothetically still there for

00:38:23.920 like so you know and i that's one of my favorite jokes every time i go to a coffee shop you know

00:38:28.240 like we roll up my wife and i in our van with our five kids you know and lord willing we might have

00:38:32.660 more but five for now and you know people are like oh my gosh you have your hands full oh my goodness

00:38:37.840 five children are they all yours you know all the usual jokes are they all yours do you know what

00:38:42.300 makes that yeah yeah do you know how you know how uh kids are made it's like yeah and we're pretty

00:38:46.960 good at it that's why you know that's why we have so many um you know but all the usual jokes and

00:38:50.920 then i usually make a joke you know because they're usually there with their their dog you

00:38:54.700 know on a leash or something like that and i'll just respond by saying well you're welcome um

00:38:59.240 because my five kids will pay for your social security and your dog won't pay for mine um

00:39:04.120 and you know sometimes they laugh and then sometimes they look offended and i'm like yeah 1.00

00:39:08.440 you're a stupid lib yeah like like seriously like it is a it is a tangible benefit it's not just 0.99

00:39:13.880 that it's moral it's not just that it's um that it's right but um somebody who starts a business 1.00

00:39:19.200 that employs other people that pays taxes that supports that dude on welfare who's going to be

00:39:24.620 mailing in his vote and who has five children who are for the next generation going to be working

00:39:29.500 and paying taxes and supporting you know other people who opted out of having children for their

00:39:34.740 own selfish convenience and yet are going to be a drain on the system later in life and my kids are

00:39:40.440 going to pick up their slack um yeah my voice is more important yep so i'm fine with everybody

00:39:47.520 having to vote but i should get 20 i should get 20 you know and then there's other people and i'm

00:39:54.140 not just talking about myself there's other people who should get 100 and other people who should get

00:39:57.940 500 votes or what you could do is you could just say no we're actually just going to take votes

00:40:02.960 from one sector of the population and it's going to be uh heads of household who are married

00:40:09.080 and committed to having children furthering the next generation and their heritage americans

00:40:14.960 so not just american citizens but they've actually been here for generations back so they have a

00:40:20.360 stake in the past they have children they're married with children so they have a stake in

00:40:24.440 the future so they stake in the past stake in the future they're working they're land owning

00:40:30.340 their head of household yes i'm speaking of men um and those individuals will have a vote and it

00:40:36.700 doesn't mean that nobody else has a voice but everybody else will have a voice underneath their

00:40:41.320 federal headship right that that man's wife has a voice she is there whispering in his ear his heart

00:40:47.980 is inclined towards her he wants her good he wants her benefit um if she sees something he doesn't

00:40:53.440 she's going to voice that to him and he's going to carry uh those concerns with him into the voting

00:40:58.260 booth uh but this idea of a raw democracy what you just said is incredibly un-american yeah

00:41:04.600 yeah oh wait that's how we started that's exactly how we started that's that's literally it's like

00:41:10.720 oh well that's fascist uh no that's america that is early america that's how we started

00:41:15.700 and so but any what i'm saying is this um john dupree i think he nailed it like that's a comment

00:41:21.380 that would have been easy to miss in the chat um because people think oh well it's the weed you

00:41:26.340 know and like and don't get me wrong the weed doesn't help right so you know the weed doesn't

00:41:30.700 help or the geography the mountains we talked about like maybe that's why it's going blue because

00:41:34.320 liberals you know yolo they know they're going to hell you know they only live once so you know

00:41:38.320 might as well get as close to heaven as they'll ever be, you know, and get to ski in the Rockies,

00:41:42.920 you know, as they deny Jesus Christ as Lord, you know, over their 80 years of life. That's a decent

00:41:47.900 explanation too. So I think like liberals being attracted to beautiful states on the coast or

00:41:53.080 Colorado with the Rockies or the idea of marijuana being made legal. I think Colorado was the first

00:42:01.080 state to do it. You know, those are good explanations, but don't sleep on what John said.

00:42:07.120 The mail-in ballot.

00:42:09.300 If you want to tank a country, a state, a county, a district, 1.00

00:42:15.220 then make sure that the most retarded people in that area get a voice. 1.00

00:42:21.860 I've got a dumb dad joke for you. 1.00

00:42:23.100 It's the mail-in ballot and the mail-less ballot. 0.97

00:42:28.080 Well, even Aristotle, long ago, he recognized one of the tensions with democracy 0.97

00:42:32.920 is that a wide lower poorer class if you give suffrage to all of them you say all of you can 0.97

00:42:38.920 vote that they're always going to be inclined towards greater licentiousness and the taking 0.62

00:42:43.880 of the wealth from those above them balancing who votes and who doesn't someone asked like

00:42:48.720 well should middle class people like you guys not have a voice compared to upper class

00:42:52.680 it's always a tension uh society has always had to deal with how do we keep the working class and

00:42:57.680 happy in a good way how do we care for them how do we protect them but at the same time not have

00:43:02.460 them guillotining the rich, aka the French Revolution. That is the quintessential problem

00:43:07.660 of statecraft. But expanding, so you're bottom of the triangle, you're 80%, you're uninformed,

00:43:13.480 you're no college education, expanding it so all of them, people are knocking on their door,

00:43:18.700 begging them, please fill out this ballot. We'll even tell you who you should vote for. That will

00:43:22.020 help you with your welfare and unemployment, this, that, or the other. That has been destructive for

00:43:26.440 all of time. Aristotle knew it. The ancients knew it. The founders themselves were critical of raw

00:43:32.140 democracy they knew it was a problem dude the found the american founders people just don't

00:43:36.340 they forget this they had nothing good to say about democracy so one it's not american right

00:43:42.000 it's not american a raw democracy is never what they had in mind the constitutional representative

00:43:46.340 republic is what they had in mind and then two don't sleep on this one uh there's you know it's

00:43:51.380 like well the founders didn't like it that's good enough well if it's not good enough here's another

00:43:54.700 example the bible um every example of democracy in the bible is bad whether it's the people saying

00:44:01.560 give us a king or whether it's the people the crowd saying crucify him you want to see examples

00:44:07.400 of democracy in scripture the crucifixion of jesus there's a great example of democracy the people

00:44:12.680 got their way yeah you have a a spineless politician who's up for re-election in that

00:44:17.540 district namely pontius pilate and he wants to please the jews in his region because he needs 0.99

00:44:22.860 their constituency to be on his side and then the elite jews the pharisees and sadducees and 0.92

00:44:28.460 religious rulers, they're going down the line and bribing and whispering in the ears, 1.00

00:44:33.260 I'd say, Barabbas, give us Barabbas, the murderer, the rapist, give us Barabbas, 1.00

00:44:37.400 give him instead. And then Pilate says, okay, so I'm going to hand over Barabbas. I'm keeping Jesus.

00:44:42.020 So he's still on trial. So what should his punishment meet? And then again, they go and

00:44:46.820 stir up the crowd for a democratic or sacred democracy vote. As a Christian, you need to be

00:44:54.800 thinking um jesus nailed to a cross democracy it's the same picture corporate needs to tell you to

00:45:03.100 say what's the difference between these two pictures and one is jesus nailed on cross and

00:45:07.380 this is hypothetical you don't actually need the picture because that would be a second commandment

00:45:10.260 violation we don't need images of jesus but jesus nailed on the cross and our sacred democracy and

00:45:16.200 you as a christian should be able to respond say it's the same picture democracy death of jesus

00:45:21.660 democracy death of jesus that's that's pretty much it all right we are not respected as a

00:45:26.520 democracy let's get to what our sacred democracy and women in office let's get to what they gave 0.94

00:45:31.760 the poor people of colorado so this is house bill 1312 it's called the kelly loving act

00:45:37.140 after a man who believed himself to be a woman and was shot in a nightclub in some type of incident

00:45:42.420 in 2012 so that happened uh that's what's called the kelly loving act it originally included a

00:45:49.400 provision that parents that misgendered their children would actually be guilty of coercive

00:45:54.660 abuse, and that could be used as evidence for CPS, actually taking the kids away. That's the one I 0.55

00:45:59.300 mentioned earlier. A lot of Christians and pastors fought against that provision specifically,

00:46:03.800 and in God's grace, it was taken out. So the final version that was signed into law a week ago

00:46:08.060 doesn't include that. That's the worst part. That was the state will come and take your kids.

00:46:12.640 I mean, what we got is not much better, but at the very least, there's that. I'm going to call

00:46:17.120 attention to a couple portions here so there's a portion that deals with marriage licenses there's

00:46:21.140 a portion that deals with schools how schools have to deal with this we'll get into all the

00:46:25.120 details of that and then final one on equal opportunity and discrimination but the very

00:46:29.100 first one the state must so we've had a couple instances i forget which state it was but for

00:46:34.040 example a woman was a clerk and the state said you have to issue this marriage license it was for a

00:46:38.540 homosexual couple in this case and she fought it and she was like no i'm not going to do this i'm

00:46:42.540 going to do this well you actually see the lines of the previous provision that they struck out

00:46:47.180 where it was softer language it was like the state may issue a new license so they went in

00:46:51.740 they literally struck that and it's the state must and they literally specified working hours

00:46:56.380 like you must provide this license if someone comes in they say hey my name has changed i want

00:47:00.860 a new marriage license i want it to reflect this they have to do it they have to do it within

00:47:05.100 working hours so that's the state coming in being like you will issue that license so help me our

00:47:10.300 our sacred democracy the deity in that case and and then get this um nate you can pull that second

00:47:15.880 quote up on the screen this is from the law real quick shout out nick bonner 27 up 28 dollar 27.99

00:47:23.080 super chat from nick bonner thanks man thank you yes okay here we go one of my one of my great

00:47:27.640 mutuals oh really cool yes on x uh so hb 25 13 12 section 14 to 106 3b a new license to marry

00:47:36.540 issued pursuant to the subsection of the section supersedes the original license so that replaces

00:47:41.120 it to marry as the official public record and must not be marked as amended or indicate in any

00:47:46.940 manner that the name of the license to marry has been changed what i think this provision is doing

00:47:52.400 is literally saying in the future if say this was reversed and the gop comes into power you would

00:47:58.140 not be able to go through marriage licenses and even find the people that went to it and changed

00:48:03.140 their name kind of reminds me of 1984 the george orwell book where there's only the present there's

00:48:08.560 only the revolution of the moment and it's intended to never be connected to never keep a record

00:48:12.860 there's this moment where they actually change what country they're at war with they spend all

00:48:16.400 night in the building literally burning all these records and all these newspapers any evidence that

00:48:20.820 previously exists previously existed as it was and so the next day they wake up they're at war

00:48:25.180 with a different country they're like look this is how it's always been and in the same kind of way

00:48:29.460 I think I see in that law, the reason it's written saying you can't indicate anywhere on this license that this is a replacement.

00:48:36.160 You can't indicate that anyone's name has changed is to even safeguard.

00:48:39.580 So if in the future someone wants to come in and say, well, hang on, we can't issue these licenses.

00:48:44.340 A mistake has been made.

00:48:45.900 There'd be literally no possible way to trace it.

00:48:48.720 Wow.

00:48:49.040 Isn't that crazy?

00:48:49.900 That's wicked.

00:50:13.240 once noted, and I quote, when ancient opinions and rules of life are taken away, the loss cannot

00:50:21.000 possibly be estimated. Close quote. It seems that we live in such times where ancient opinions and

00:50:27.780 rules of life have indeed been taken away. We are not estimating the loss, but experiencing this

00:50:34.800 loss in real time. Speaking of such times as ours, the reactionary thinker Nicolás Gómez de Vila

00:50:42.140 said that modern man is scandalized by what was commonplace in traditional society. The most

00:50:49.380 radical book of our time, he said, would be a compendium of old proverbs. A compendium of old

00:50:57.560 proverbs, truths, and wisdom that were once commonplace in traditional society is just what

00:51:04.960 is needed right now. Who is My Neighbor is precisely this book, an encyclopedia of ancient

00:51:12.820 opinions, rules of life, truths, all once forgotten, but now recovered. So go and get

00:53:40.720 into the uh some more with the bill but uh nathan scroll up real quick i i just i appreciate a good

00:53:45.700 dad joke michael had a good one but here's another so john level uh level in the chat he says what

00:54:07.900 super chat but that's basically you you want your comment to be addressed there are three mechanisms

00:54:13.260 one five hundred dollars instantly addressed instantly addressed number two uh a good dad

00:54:20.100 joke number three um make joel mad if you're if you're too much of an antagonist we found out on 0.57

00:54:26.440 monday then i will pray i will publicly i will publicly call you out and uh and try to humiliate

00:54:32.160 you so yep okay those are your options yep okay so let's get to the crux of the bill uh it's funny

00:54:37.280 and i'm going to get to it in a minute but there was a image that went viral from reddit of a

00:54:40.860 website to report dead naming so it put forward the idea that this bill bans all type of misgendering

00:54:47.640 so someone you know they come into the store you pass them on the street you say sorry sir like no

00:54:52.760 i want to be called ma'am you say my apologies sir i didn't mean any offense kind of implying

00:54:58.000 that's something that would be illegal this bill does not do that what this bill does the do though

00:55:03.360 and i'm going to read it from this right here is the bill introduces and this has been signed into

00:55:08.620 law. So this is now, this is the law of the land in Colorado. When you have protected categories,

00:55:15.220 what belongs under those protected categories is a big deal. There's federal protected categories,

00:55:19.380 that's sex, that's gender, that's veteran status, disability, for instance. What Colorado did with

00:55:24.860 this bill is they introduced chosen name and how the individual chooses to be expressed

00:55:30.400 as a protected category. So now when you think about what can't I violate? So some of the other

00:55:36.360 ones that are protected are appearance or it's same thing it's sex it's housing status it's

00:55:43.800 disability it's all those different things so it puts this new category category in and listen to

00:55:48.780 what it says the general assembly finds and declares that each coloradan has the right to

00:55:54.440 access fair employment housing opportunity public accommodations and advertising that is free from

00:56:01.740 discrimination regardless of their membership in a protected class as those classes are listed

00:56:08.140 in their sections this prohibits discrimination based on these protected classes ensures that

00:56:13.540 every coloradan has the ability to enjoy freedom from discrimination and so in matters of employment

00:56:18.800 and housing those are the two big ones it is now illegal to discriminate on someone say they come

00:56:25.140 to you and say hey my pronouns are he i forget how you even use these pronouns because i've never

00:56:29.380 used them in my life they say their pronouns are this zazer they them bit bop and you look at them

00:56:36.900 and like you're obviously just uh a balding man so you do that and uh and it's related to employing

00:56:43.200 them it's related to giving them housing colorado now has said that is illegal and here's how

00:56:48.880 practically this would work because you could say well that doesn't sound like a very big deal right

00:56:52.980 so you're walking on the street you're not going to get arrested by the cops even in a classroom

00:56:57.020 like you say it like it doesn't sound like that much could necessarily happen but here's how it

00:57:01.560 could go and this happened with i think was in colorado the cake baking incident you have a

00:57:06.540 business or you have something like that and these people these wicked people that their whole mission

00:57:10.660 in life is to advance this ideology advance gender mismatch whatever it is they could then target 0.97

00:57:17.920 your business and they could apply for a job or apply to to rent from you say you own a couple

00:57:22.120 homes hey you have some rentals and they apply to rent well you don't rent to them and maybe

00:57:26.880 hey maybe you did it because they're weird right there is a weird dude you don't feel safe around

00:57:33.000 him you have no desire to have him in your business so you go ahead and you do that now

00:57:37.400 he would have grounds and he could attempt to make the claim right and come up and say i applied for

00:57:43.100 employment at covenant bible church that had an open open listing i applied to rent the home from

00:57:48.660 this individual who's a member here and they didn't give it to me because of my gender identity

00:57:54.400 and it's we've talked about this with the palantir episode for example i really don't

00:57:58.880 actually think you'll see the day where americans are being arrested for facebook posts right

00:58:02.800 calling caitlin jenner a man i don't actually think that's going to happen same thing anti-semitism

00:58:07.580 but here's what you will be you'll be out of jail sure you'll be unemployable no one will rent to

00:58:12.700 you your name will be mud it'll follow you everywhere you go oh you're free yeah but i

00:58:18.640 can't work and get a job right with a meaningful salary right that's what's insidious about this

00:58:23.580 bill. And there's always the Mott and Bailey. So someone could say, well, no, no, no, it's not

00:58:27.000 meant to do that. It's just meant to prevent something egregious and abuses of it and

00:58:31.100 longstanding harassment. Like if you're harassing someone again and again, you know, using their

00:58:36.140 gender identity that they don't want you to use. Yeah, but who's to ever say that it won't ever be 0.88

00:58:40.980 applied in that way? Remember the Civil Rights Act? There is insisting that busing wouldn't be

00:58:45.200 utilized to force the integration of school districts. All the advocates like, no, no, no,

00:58:48.900 you're scared about nothing. We won't be doing busing. Guess what happened after the Civil Rights

00:58:53.500 Act was passed to force integration, busing. Again and again and again, legislatures will pass 0.94

00:58:59.160 legislation and will tell you it's one thing, but practically speaking, it has in its scope 0.96

00:59:03.800 allowances for other things, and those things are used to destroy Christians' businesses, 0.68

00:59:09.420 destroy their churches, destroy their reputation, make them unemployable, but they can throw their 0.60

00:59:14.600 hands up and say, hey, we didn't charge him. He didn't go to jail. Yeah, but the dude has moved,

00:59:19.820 has had to move out of the state to even find a job,

00:59:22.800 to uproot his life, uproot his family, uproot his home, and all of that.

00:59:26.420 That's well said.

00:59:27.380 A couple of important comments. 0.54

00:59:28.620 Defiant Baptist, he said,

00:59:38.100 That's true.

00:59:38.980 And yeah, so unless you want your pronouns forever to be boomer slash con,

00:59:43.440 then please hit the like button.

00:59:45.460 And then go up real quick, Foxhound21B.

00:59:48.040 There's another one.

00:59:48.940 if you go up a little bit more a little bit more you're so close there it is uh foxtown 21b said

00:59:54.820 in queensland australia i started reading this comment i was like let me stop you there yeah

00:59:59.680 you tell me there's a place called queensland like whatever you're about this place called

01:00:04.500 australia well seriously australia that's already bad enough but you're telling me

01:00:09.440 there's a queensland in australia uh so whatever else you're about to say uh should come as no

01:00:15.220 surprise in queensland australia it is a workplace crime even by a customer to shop assistant across

01:00:22.660 the counter to hurt people's feelings and maybe even by misgendering uh how however it's not yet

01:00:30.000 tested in court so just you know it's like the trump you know the trump meme you know uh really

01:00:36.800 you're telling me this for the first time you're telling me that there's a place called queensland

01:00:40.760 and it's a crime to hurt people's feelings in queensland that checks all of these things that

01:00:46.300 makes a lot of sense for the course that makes a lot of sense yeah yep uh deacon saint john if

01:00:51.100 someone doesn't identify as the person on their driver's license or their passport so say they

01:00:55.600 have a passport it's prior to them pretending there's somebody different uh what is preventing

01:01:00.800 them from not identifying as a person on your lease in your rental property exactly like there's

01:01:06.160 forms where you have to put any uh aliases that you've used in your life right hey just to be

01:01:10.220 clear i've sometimes been called this nickname or that so they can do background checks that guy

01:01:14.720 spent five years in a federal penitentiary like yeah now i'm going by this guy but i have to tell

01:01:19.160 you that that guy was me too and that's that is what progressives are so good at they'll see and

01:01:25.280 women especially they'll see what they perceive to be a problem but they'll create a solution that

01:01:30.200 unleashes 10 more problems like even if this was a say it was wasn't over something that we

01:01:36.020 fundamentally disagree with but it was just something of you can change your name at will

01:01:39.800 not related to gender identity even still we have these laws for a reason we have names for a reason

01:01:44.460 and this structure has been very helpful to us and but progressives they will do this they will go

01:01:49.200 and they'll say but this disadvantages you know what about this young man who has his dad's last

01:01:53.840 name and he's called you know junior but he hated his dad and his dad was in prison and we just want

01:01:59.260 him to be able to just go buy something new and not have to change it and i can understand that

01:02:03.060 argument of a young man like but but you have to understand those are the minority and you don't

01:02:07.640 alter your long-standing laws for exceptions and it's a hard thing to do to not make the exception

01:02:14.260 not but you have to in that role civil magistrate the state keeping order you cannot make the

01:02:19.700 exception the rule so even if this law had nothing to do with misgendering and transgenderism and

01:02:25.140 any of that if it had nothing to do with any of that it still would introduce from the paperwork

01:02:30.840 perspective from what deacon st john is talking about from a lease perspective from a discrimination

01:02:34.560 perspective it's wholly unworkable wholly destructive and um i feel for people in

01:02:41.620 colorado people that have their roots there have businesses there so what do you think will be like

01:02:45.920 it doesn't go into effect until october right is that right what will be you know immediate

01:02:52.000 effects or fallouts or what are people i don't know if you've seen anything that chase davis

01:02:56.660 has said about it since the bill passed but practically what does this mean for coloradans

01:03:02.220 remains to be seen okay because it's all it's political will will the state have the political

01:03:07.040 will to prosecute someone maybe they maybe they won't to be honest like they got a lot of pushback

01:03:12.440 from this so maybe there's never ending attempt but even still being on the books right and being

01:03:18.340 on the books it has an impact of reinforcing nope you've got to do this this is the law

01:03:23.860 i want to highlight one clever piece of resistance oh yeah for those of you that are thinking

01:03:28.240 politically and you want to get involved have stuff like this in your wheelhouse so i mentioned

01:03:32.280 earlier an image went viral from the denver subreddit which i mean reddit you know it's

01:03:36.200 like obi-wan like never you've seen such a hive of you know villainy and wretchedness so reddit

01:03:41.440 and uh there was a link to just it was just an image and it said hey if you've observed it says 0.68

01:03:46.600 something to the effect of it's illegal now to not use people's correct pronouns and if you've

01:03:50.560 observed any of this go to this website to submit a report now the law doesn't set any of that up

01:03:56.280 there's no task force funded or anything like that so it's clearly not legal like this is not

01:04:00.580 the state setting this up whatsoever but you go to the site and i didn't include an image of it

01:04:04.920 because it has just a gross image of uh like a drag queen wearing a beard and it's so on the nose

01:04:11.800 that's a little too on the nose you go to the bottom of it and there's nothing about who set

01:04:15.920 it up who it's funded by where they have an office all this there is just a phone number

01:04:20.260 and just a very simple boilerplate report form if i think it's deadnaming.com and you can go there

01:04:26.000 I don't want to blow the lid and I don't know anyone who's truly behind this.

01:04:29.080 I have no intel that this is secretly our thing.

01:04:31.680 But I think this was set up to make it look bad, to advance the image that Colorado was banning any pronoun misusage and had set up a website where you're reporting it.

01:04:42.360 Most certainly the state has not done that.

01:04:44.780 And I don't even think any independent individual group has done that.

01:04:48.400 But think of all the negative press that has happened because all over the United States, people go, what the hell is happening in California?

01:04:54.580 it and there's a website set up where people are reporting pronoun misusage i'll go on record and

01:04:59.760 say i think it's a great tactic i don't know who set it up i don't know what their intentions are

01:05:03.140 maybe it is legitimate there's someone behind the line they're going to try to badger the state but

01:05:07.340 i think it's a very clever i mean the picture on the front if you go to the website it just it's

01:05:12.240 really in your face and it really highlights the ugliest parts of it and it and it insists on the

01:05:17.380 violations that are so and such an antithesis to the american you would even misuse this i think

01:05:23.820 is a great piece of guerrilla warfare this is politics and politics is war in the same way

01:05:28.080 that if you're in war you wear camouflage you know like you like in war it's not like well i'm you

01:05:33.000 know i'm a beautiful loser and i you know i'm going to be virtuous and so i don't want to do

01:05:37.440 anything that might be deceptive and so as i march onto the battlefield i'm going to you know blow 0.89

01:05:41.720 you know a trumpet and sound an alarm saying but my location is here and here are my coordinates 0.99

01:05:46.560 you know and let's fight fair we're wearing hunter orange right yeah yeah then you're dead

01:05:51.480 But no, you have to understand politics is war.

01:05:56.000 It is a war for the soul of our nation.

01:06:00.100 That's what it is.

01:06:00.820 And when you think of the left, this is exactly what they do, right?

01:06:04.940 I mean, this is what the FBI has done.

01:06:08.300 Leftist, FBI, tomato, tomato, I repeat myself.

01:06:11.260 But the point is, how many feds were involved with January 6th, for instance?

01:06:21.480 certainly some or like nazis rallies you know when it's like oh it turns out it's just antifa

01:06:27.120 well there was entrapment in a plot to assassinate the governor of michigan

01:06:32.220 gretchen whitmer yeah they for sure confirmed yeah fbi was kind of prodding them on like go do

01:06:39.120 it go do it they were fine with those tactics to make it look like there's guys out there

01:06:43.100 they're playing to assassinate their own governor right they're so radical right so the left always

01:06:48.360 does that the left will always try to make uh the right seem more extreme um than it is and in this

01:06:55.560 particular case um i i don't even think there's any foul play i don't even think it's deceptive

01:07:00.400 because um you're you know whoever did this let's say it is somebody on the right you know who set

01:07:05.460 up this website you know with this picture um like in that case they're they're actually not

01:07:11.460 uh being deceitful they're actually saying this is sponsored by the shade of colorado or this is

01:07:15.700 official i would say on the front page it says like it's illegal in colorado not to do this

01:07:19.820 like it's carefully worded yeah yeah at face value certainly someone gets a different impression than

01:07:25.400 what's truly there but but that's what it can lend to like it eventually can uh can absolutely lead

01:07:31.420 there and so uh but yeah like uh helping helping people connect the dots to the logical end and

01:07:37.580 seeing like this is where the ideology leads um this this is yeah like that's the we don't expose

01:07:46.120 evil just for the sake of exposing it the goal ultimately is to destroy it but the way that you

01:07:51.720 destroy evil is by exposing it um a lot of people the reason they don't fight back against evil is

01:07:57.600 because they don't see how truly sinister it actually is and so that's a lot of um a lot of

01:08:03.680 our tactics when it comes to politics and when it comes to culture and these kinds of things

01:08:07.100 uh needs to be exposure exposing like this is this is how wicked um this is what we're actually

01:08:14.600 talking about uh that's why that's why things like uh the epstein list you know need to be

01:08:20.700 released and i'll be honest like it's um it's it's uh it's a little bit off-putting it's it's

01:08:28.480 almost scary listening to uh for instance dan bongino uh just like like two months ago talking

01:08:35.560 about the epstein uh list and talking about jeffrey epstein in particular and saying there's no way

01:08:40.680 that he killed himself and americans need to know because it ties to this and that and possibly

01:08:46.080 israeli intelligence and then like um elites you know within our own american government and uh

01:08:52.560 americans absolutely need to know because this affects elections and it affects this and like

01:08:57.520 and he made like this really great argument and then he came into uh political office right and

01:09:04.500 just came out and said no guys he killed himself it's just funny like playing those two clips you

01:09:10.460 know just a couple months apart you know back to back uh cash patel you know like um oh like you

01:09:16.400 look at the rhetoric of some of these guys before they go into office you know i mean it's like oh

01:09:21.360 cash is gonna you know he's gonna he's gonna burn it to the ground and you know he was gonna make it

01:09:25.940 into a museum of the deep state day one day one or day what day 125 yeah so you're telling me the

01:09:34.300 guy who put his hand and swore in on the what's is that the what's the baga vita the sand demon

01:09:42.880 text uh that that guy didn't keep his words shocking um but but that's but my point is that

01:09:48.960 um yeah like so go with you know previous dan boncino and not you know present day one he's

01:09:55.120 right he was right he used to be right um these things do need to be exposed because people need

01:10:00.460 to know uh what they're actually dealing with so like any way that you can you can shine light on

01:10:06.200 this bill or this politician or whatever um and and show like how sinister it actually is so that

01:10:13.140 people wake up out of their slumber and realize what's at stake is that's how you do politics 0.95

01:10:18.860 defiant baptist you can't trust your local sand demon who can you trust that's a valid point 0.93

01:10:25.980 that's right he's like guys if you get yeah if you like guys he swore on the baga vita like we're 0.99

01:10:31.220 not gonna take him at his word he's based guys he said he was gonna go and destroy the left you know

01:10:36.220 he's talking about the american dream yeah he's american as they come bongino did too though he

01:10:41.180 was talking he was talking about the american dream for other countries he's like and i will

01:10:47.720 do whatever it takes to fight for your children no for the children of foreigners in other countries

01:10:54.440 and i'm in the american dream to be there wearing on a false religion text and i'm not keeping my

01:11:00.320 words shocking there's a reason we said on monday we are not conservatives because that like that

01:11:04.880 framing that group that's quintessential conservative that is there's your conservative

01:11:09.440 yep to bring it full circle guys your grandfather right you're trying to kind of convince your

01:11:14.440 parents get them involved hey mom would love to see you hey mom dad could you come out could you

01:11:18.720 be active in this could you do some block walking yeah guys your grandfather did not have the threat

01:11:23.580 of his business being sued into oblivion because he called someone the wrong pronoun things are

01:11:28.520 changing and things are changing quickly the left got wrecked in november and they said hang on we

01:11:34.940 can double down all in they have bet the house on this yep and it's probably going to get uglier

01:11:40.140 before it gets better this is not the last hurrah like colorado one final bill before we get swept

01:11:46.200 out in november no colorado will probably get more blue california will probably get more blue

01:11:51.020 They're not backing off.

01:11:53.040 They're not backing down. 1.00

01:11:54.420 And like I said in the cold open, they will do their best to make the Christian's life, the Christian family, to make it hell. 1.00

01:12:00.220 To educate their children, to be successful, to go to church, and ultimately for them to be economically viable. 1.00

01:12:07.480 That's what you're up against.

01:12:08.940 And you can sit in the back.

01:12:11.040 You can go, oh, woe is me.

01:12:12.460 Or you can fight it.

01:12:13.660 You can fight it locally.

01:12:14.800 You can fight it politically.

01:12:16.080 You can fight it by fleeing.

01:12:17.260 You can fight it by leaving, not giving your tax dollars to the state of Colorado.

01:12:21.020 to turn around and bring the hammer down on you.

01:12:23.580 So you can fight by leaving.

01:12:24.540 You can fight politically.

01:12:25.580 You can fight by being successful.

01:12:27.260 There's many things to do.

01:12:28.560 But you as the Christian, when we are saved,

01:12:30.400 we are conscripted, enrolled into the army of God. 1.00

01:12:33.900 You are called to warfare.

01:12:35.520 This is one of the practical ways your warfare looks like

01:12:38.680 as you have the means.

01:12:40.360 Amen.

01:12:40.900 And you do need to be aware, like what you were saying,

01:12:43.840 like California will probably get bluer.

01:12:45.920 Colorado will probably get bluer.

01:12:47.240 um the world is balkanizing right now that's just that is what's happening and um and you

01:12:55.220 you probably need to be aware of that and better sooner than later you know like if uh if your kids

01:13:01.600 are tiny tots it's uh it's a lot easier to make a transition uh with younger children than older

01:13:07.980 children when you're pulling them away from all their friends and those kinds of things and um

01:13:12.920 And so just being aware that, yeah, for the foreseeable future, I don't see, especially the quintessential bluest states in America, I don't see them getting better for the near term.

01:13:29.980 And when I say near term, I'm talking like 10 years, 15 years, 20 years.

01:13:33.060 i i see i see america basically coming to terms with realizing um that we have like we have like

01:13:42.420 two different countries and that we can't um that we actually can't get along like these are not

01:13:48.520 just petty differences right it's like well there's always been two parties yeah and they

01:13:52.400 would argue over you know 11 tax or 10 tax it's a little different now yep like we're like the

01:13:58.720 arguments now are over slaughtering babies taking people's children you know flooding the nation

01:14:04.700 with 40 million immigrants like these are different conversations suing someone's business

01:14:09.220 into oblivion over using the wrong pronouns um you can't you that's not that's not the type of 0.99

01:14:16.140 person that you want to be your neighbor you don't want that person to be your neighbor and so

01:14:20.500 and i get it i don't want to be i don't want to be insensitive because i also understand the

01:14:25.520 importance of heritage and not just nationally speaking but in terms of location and state i

01:14:29.960 understand it's a big deal for someone to say yeah but like um i live you know a mile away from where

01:14:35.300 my grandfather's buried yeah and that's why i appreciated andrew isker because andrew isker

01:14:40.120 you know like when i left california i was coming back home i was born and raised in texas but

01:14:44.900 andrew isker was leaving i think like six generations um from his like his state and his

01:14:51.060 hometown um but he's saying yeah um like it hurts and it's sad and it's no small thing and i don't

01:14:58.380 think he minimized it you know or downplayed it uh but he said and yet it's still necessary it's

01:15:04.480 still necessary because as a father i'm responsible for my children and the kinds of policies uh that

01:15:10.600 are underway i could have my children taken from me and so um yeah like that's that's a grand granddad

01:15:18.160 matters but my kids actually i actually in terms of the order of morris and your your responsibility

01:15:23.920 like you have a greater responsibility to your children than you do to your great-grandfather

01:15:28.160 and that's not to say that your great-grandfather doesn't matter because it does i remember you

01:15:31.960 saying when you preach through hebrews that it's by faith that uh joseph requests his bones to be

01:15:36.720 taken that there's a real category of people who never come back but there's a real sense where

01:15:40.820 they say when you do go back bear me up there that is actually my homeland like i i am a yankee at

01:15:46.600 the end of the day that is where my family has been for generations and maybe my grandkids do

01:15:51.240 go back up to new york and maybe i tell them take me back up there take we're here in texas

01:15:55.960 for a little while you are from here but i'm not but for right now like my family's actually coming

01:16:00.940 to move down here for the moment this is where we're going to be and we're going to we're going

01:16:05.020 to wait out the storm and then maybe we'll actually go back there all right all right we got some

01:16:09.960 great super chats let's hit all right let's do it we hit some of them but we have not hit all of

01:16:13.100 them rubicon super chat five dollars old glory club um north carolina has members that have

01:16:22.060 taken over the some local gop and outed leadership county the county leadership uh the the county

01:16:29.480 leadership one county at a time uh keep fighting men yeah old glory club is great like there's

01:16:35.560 going to be organizations that are private that are just they work in the shadows they're informal

01:16:39.840 old glory club i think isker was speaking r and mcintyre they're a very public facing group um

01:16:46.860 that's going to have actually like chapters and everything like that you might not necessarily

01:16:50.500 have one in your area but they are cropping up everywhere and that is a great place to meet

01:16:55.920 like-minded men they're not all going to be perfectly on board if you're on board with us

01:16:59.120 they maybe won't agree with all everything you said but go to old glory cub see if you have a

01:17:03.560 local chapter if you do go to a meeting connect network with those guys they're doing great

01:17:07.720 things covenanter gave us two dollars thank you covenanter uh he said happy to be out of colorado

01:17:14.360 and in the republic of texas i met him on sunday he came by his wife visited up from waco yeah so

01:17:19.340 it's great to meet him i met him too yeah yeah yeah they were a great family um well we'll see

01:17:25.400 if uh we can keep texas i was about to say like of your states to move to like florida you're going

01:17:30.860 to prison for anti-semitism but to be fair you're doing the same here like ron de santa said there's

01:17:35.680 some pretty strong laws down there yeah so florida's pretty good it does have that texas

01:17:39.840 is also pretty good there's there's fighters here in texas like florida's a great state

01:17:44.220 for jews yeah uh the other 49 states are great states no other but the point is is worth mentioning

01:17:53.580 so um you will go to jail um for uh suggesting that maybe we shouldn't you know view israel as

01:18:00.680 our greatest ally but other than that yeah you know but i mean legitimately the governor of texas

01:18:06.520 governor abbott you're a conservative based whatever is trying to strip four million dollars

01:18:11.520 from the city of san marcos because they're divesting it from investment in israel right

01:18:15.700 like i'm not even kidding that's what's happening in our state which is when abbott finds out about

01:18:19.100 this podcast by the way we are done texas department of public safety homeland security

01:18:24.040 national guard surround the building take them away but for now we're all right it's frustrating

01:18:30.340 because that's the tactic that the woke used on universities

01:18:32.880 that wanted to divest themselves of Israel investments

01:18:37.200 because of the Hamas thing, the Palestine thing. 0.54

01:18:40.240 But we're using the exact same tactics

01:18:42.480 that the liberals and leftists and woke people

01:18:45.900 were using to put pressure on their universities.

01:18:47.460 You're telling me Governor Abbott is a leftist?

01:18:51.040 You mean to imply to me.

01:18:52.660 Always has been.

01:18:53.620 Always has been.

01:18:54.900 We had a couple questions.

01:18:56.200 But we are glad that you're here.

01:18:57.580 Yes.

01:18:58.320 We're glad that you're here in Texas.

01:18:59.660 and in terms of where you move there's different strategies with this there's an argument to be

01:19:04.160 made for moving to you know the deepest red place you know going to the portion of the ship that's

01:19:08.240 going to go down under the water last uh but there's also an argument to be made for you

01:19:12.460 know getting recruits yeah to places that are teetering um there's actually an i think an

01:19:18.860 argument for um okay so we're going to deplete blue states of the tax revenue that comes from

01:19:24.500 the salt of the earth you know working conservatives who are actually propping the state up and we're

01:19:28.860 going to bring those guys uh instead of just you know from the deepest blue state to the the

01:19:33.520 brightest red we're going to bring them to a place that's uh currently contested so i think uh if

01:19:38.560 you're thinking in in that in that vein and i'm not going to sit here and be dogmatic and say

01:19:43.560 that's the only strategy that's permissible um but if you are thinking in that vein of uh you know

01:19:49.620 because some guys are like well i want to fight you know like um and i and i appreciate that i

01:19:54.800 want to fight too and so uh my only suggestion is uh so then go to a fight and say well i'm i'm in

01:20:01.260 the i'm in the uh in the the heat of battle right here in california it's like uh my brother in

01:20:07.580 christ that's not a fight um that's uh that's not a battlefield that's a graveyard uh uh everyone

01:20:14.440 has already been slaughtered they've won the war like 20 years ago it's the japanese guy 20 years

01:20:20.620 of the world war ii he's holed up the guy fighting in california is like uh the guys who you know

01:20:25.040 dress up once a year to go and and act out the civil war like my my dear friend um it's like but

01:20:32.360 we had six million votes for trump in 2020 yeah and there were 12 million for biden and think about

01:20:37.920 that like you know that's part of what i covered in the book but if you took those uh six million

01:20:42.320 votes in california and respectively you know spread them out between just four of the seven

01:20:48.420 contested swing states um i believe it was arizona and nevada and uh two others georgia

01:20:54.880 would have been one of them and then i think not pennsylvania because that was a bigger margin

01:20:59.400 uh michigan yeah i think it was michigan or it might have been wisconsin um but uh in just four

01:21:05.600 of the seven swing states uh that went you know flipped blue for biden uh collectively the margins

01:21:11.100 were so thin that i think collectively it was like 50 000 votes combined between four states

01:21:17.560 and those four would have given you know uh the electoral advantage and so my point is and and

01:21:22.640 god's sovereign and like i kind of feel like in some way you know it worked out better that it

01:21:27.260 worked out better yeah because the left got to overplay its hand and and now the the rubber band

01:21:31.760 is snapping back with force you know nature is healing and there's lots of good things to be

01:21:36.140 encouraged about so you know uh common w for god sovereignty you know so so i you know i'm not

01:21:42.040 going to sit here and argue with god but the principle still uh stands the principle that i

01:21:45.920 was saying is um imagine if like there are because people say but joe there's so many conservatives

01:21:51.080 and you know in a place like california and i'm sure it's somewhat similar in colorado it's like

01:21:56.060 yes there are and there's so many places uh and there's so many conservatives and and it's like

01:22:01.720 it's like saying like there are so many recruits over here um touring the uh the the museum of

01:22:08.700 you know all the fallen soldiers you know where they're already dead um you're on a beach trip

01:22:13.000 more like you think you're fighting you're not fighting you're literally visiting um a graveyard

01:22:17.200 of like it's a state that's already lost and because there's so many conservatives imagine

01:22:21.940 imagine what you could do like imagine if um if half of those six million conservatives that

01:22:29.120 voted for trump in california moved to texas right it would be the reddest state like i mean you just

01:22:35.920 it'd be over like it'd be over it's like it'd be amazing you know or you could split them up you

01:22:41.060 don't even need them all here you could go to texas and you could go to like seven other states

01:22:44.920 that are you know kind of purple and on the edge besiege your capitals yep run for office it'd be

01:22:50.080 incredible you'd win the country yep yep yep we have some questions that some people asked here

01:22:54.040 since we got through all the super chats uh just that one here's one uh will doctors be

01:23:00.840 prisoned for saying biological male cannot have a period um we're not there yet one of the

01:23:06.620 provisions in the law is public accommodations and so someone could legally make the argument i was

01:23:12.080 not accommodated because i was not called by x y and z name i mean think about that like you're

01:23:16.720 a christian doctor and someone comes in like i want gender affirming care now obviously hopefully

01:23:21.920 you're not a gynecologist and you'd be receiving those types of things but even you're just family

01:23:26.600 practice someone comes in they're like i want you know i want this type of care and what do you call 0.99

01:23:31.920 them because they could try to apply the law and do it so for the hoe it's spelled h-o-u-g-h 0.94

01:23:39.280 the hoe 91 i don't think we're there yet sometimes you just gotta spell it don't we have a bill 0.73

01:23:43.540 uh here in texas or did it pass um basically doing the opposite of this especially in the

01:23:49.620 medical area with with transgenderism texas has passed some good bills i'm not aware of any

01:23:53.760 specifically related to that but um i think there is one like we we pick on texas but honestly like

01:23:59.220 i know a lot of like people that are the politicians and there are a lot of great people

01:24:03.420 here doing great work like texas is stock like there's other places where like tennessee and

01:24:08.640 north carolina there's you know there's reasons that they're going to be doing better but also

01:24:13.320 there's some negatives but texas does have a lot of people that are they're interested in closing

01:24:17.340 the border they're interested in family values texas has no income tax right like practically

01:24:21.920 speaking you're coming from california no income tax don't worry we do have property tax but they

01:24:26.680 are working on relieving that too they are to be clear we have property choice is looking uh

01:24:31.480 better and better school choice happened it's been signed into law so now go ahead homeschoolers and

01:24:36.080 private school you will get x y and z thousands of dollars right towards helping homeschool and

01:24:40.800 towards helping when sorry next year and i believe september 1st of this year if i don't i think so

01:24:46.620 yeah they're typically engrossed i thought it had to be built into the budget for the following year

01:24:53.080 Yes, but that passed or is in the process of passing.

01:24:55.920 And that'll kick in.

01:24:56.760 I think that kicks in September of this year.

01:24:58.820 And then Texas also has some of the most provisions.

01:25:02.220 Best laws for homeschooling.

01:25:03.620 Best laws for homeschooling. 0.68

01:25:04.800 Great gun laws.

01:25:06.020 You can just carry a gun here.

01:25:07.680 Open carry. 0.53

01:25:08.280 Like open carry.

01:25:09.200 You can conceal carry too.

01:25:10.540 Yep.

01:25:10.940 Yep.

01:25:11.440 You can just conceal carry in the capital.

01:25:13.340 You don't have to have a, yeah.

01:25:14.240 You don't need any permit for it whatsoever.

01:25:16.480 It's cheap.

01:25:17.580 Like as far as housing costs,

01:25:18.780 like you can actually afford a home here

01:25:20.380 much better than you can.

01:25:22.140 california anywhere else so colorado we pick on texas but there are a lot of yeah there's a reason

01:25:26.560 we're here yeah yep there's a reason we're here all right foxhound 21b this is to us all right

01:25:31.700 maybe we get to see a swat raid on right response live that's if uh if abbott found out about our

01:25:38.520 will that increase our ratings i think it would i think it absolutely i think we know what we have

01:25:42.640 to do we need to stage it we need to have someone call it in yeah somebody honestly somebody needs

01:25:48.120 to fulfill a God-ordained ministry

01:25:51.740 by calling us in and boosting our ratings.

01:25:56.820 Yeah, that would help tremendously.

01:25:59.120 All right, Austin says,

01:26:01.760 Abbott has a different view of Israel than you.

01:26:05.040 What else is he liberal on?

01:26:07.280 He doesn't just have a different view.

01:26:09.560 The point that we're making is that-

01:26:11.900 He's legislating that view.

01:26:13.060 He's legislating that view to the point where-

01:26:15.960 the legislator is legislating it at his direction he's signing it into where if somebody's not

01:26:20.680 pro-israel they're losing they're losing money the state of texas cannot do business with any

01:26:26.180 contractor that boycotts israel so that means if you enter into a contract for public service or

01:26:31.060 contract for construction whatever it is the state of texas literally will not use your business if

01:26:36.300 you boycott israel yeah that's crazy and there's other things from covid to others that he is

01:26:42.300 super squishy on he is not a leader just he's just he's not it's like we stand with you greg
