Radio Show Hour 2 – 03/20/2025

[00:00:13] Broadcasting live from atop the Rocky Mountains, the crossroads of the West, you are listening to the Liberty Roundtable Radio Talk Show. All right, happy to have you along, my fellow Americans, Sam Bushman live on your radio. Hard-hitting news that never should refuse to use, no doubt, continues now. This, my fellow Americans, is the broadcast for March 20th in the year of our Lord, 2025.

[00:00:37] This is Hour 202, promoting God, family, and country, protecting life, liberty, and property, doing so in the traditions of our Founding Fathers, using the supreme law of the land, the Constitution of the United States of America as our guide, the checks and balances brilliantly put in place by the Founding Fathers, brilliant, and one of the peaceful, restorative solutions we have at our fingertips. As you know, we reject revolution unless it's a Jesus revolution, and then we're in because we follow the Prince of Peace.

[00:01:03] All right, we had Brian Rust, FreeWaterCoinCo.com with us last hour, doing a phenomenal job. You can get Silver Nickels for Below Spot, FreeWaterCoinCo.com, Silver Nickels, Below Spot. Check them out. Do it now. All right, we've got a guy with us by the name of Ron Edwards. For more than three decades, Ron Edwards has been broadcasting Common Sense Talk Radio. His current show, The Ron Edwards American Experience, is available now.

[00:01:32] TheRonEdwards.com, his website. And he began his illustrious broadcasting career in Cleveland, ladies and gentlemen, and he's just branched out from there over the last 30 years. He also produces and hosts an award-winning short-form radio commentary program as well. He's a chaplain. He's involved in just a bunch of stuff, a great guy. Ron, welcome to Liberty Roundtable Live, sir. Thank you. Thank you so much. It's an honor to be here.

[00:02:03] Man, there's so many things to discuss. I want to talk about this headline first with you really quick. Doge emailed me. You know, so I'm just on their list. I'm not anybody special. But they emailed me, and they're like, hey, Sam, do you think Trump should go after the BATF? Ron, I don't mean to be rude, but it's a clown question. You're literally asking me if we should abolish the Unconstitutional Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms, which has been judging or in-executioner for years?

[00:02:33] I mean, do you even really got to ask? Of course you should shut it down. What do you say, Ron? Absolutely. They need to shut down not only that but everything where our money has been wasted and utilized unconstitutionally against us in this republic to the tune of billions and billions of dollars for many decades. And, yeah, it is a clown question. But in a sense, they need to throw that question out there, and I'll explain why.

[00:03:02] Because you have so many, should I say, put it politely, morons who that, you know, they get all upset. They get butt hurt because there are these cutbacks coming, which should be coming. And you have these paid protesters out there going to Knuttsville going against this stuff. So I think maybe they want documented support or whatever, and maybe they think that's a good way to do it by throwing these little questions out there. I'm just trying to make sense of it, sir.

[00:03:32] No, and you're making sense. It's a good reason to do it. The problem is that I have is if the polling doesn't go too well, then it's kind of like, oh, we don't want to touch that one. Like the time, daylight savings time issue, you know, they were all about getting rid of it. We all want it gone. Then they came back, and they're like, oh, it's too controversial. Half the people want it, half the people don't. When everything's convoluted like that, we tend to focus on something else. Well, what an opportunity lost. In my opinion, Congress should have had that on Donald's desk the day it all happened.

[00:04:01] And meaning that January the 3rd when they got in place and then the 20th when the president was sworn in, the inauguration, then they should have simply said, hey, you're not going to mess with the times on this year. It's solved. You're not going to mess with daylight savings time. And, hey, by the way, we abolished the IRS while we're at it. So no more taxes for you people. We're going to do tariffs. I mean, they could have come out of the gate swinging. I commend all the good they've done, Ron, but I'm a little bit hesitant going, man, they've missed so many opportunities.

[00:04:28] Well, there's a little bitty reason why they've missed so many opportunities. And the little bitty reason is little Mikey Johnson. In my humble opinion, this guy has been like, you know, he runs around here. He thumps the Bible. So I believe in God. Let's pray. And then he turns around and he slow walks things and smiles in Trump's face. And then Trump, you know, he's all happy, slap happy because little Mikey is nice to him, I guess.

[00:04:56] And I just think just from way away, you know, I'm here in Michigan, but it just looks like from where I sit that little Mikey is slow walking this thing. I don't know if you remember, remember when Mikey would have these meetings with Hakeem Jeffries. It seemed like he was trying to please him more than doing the right things to advance what needs to be advanced in Congress. Yeah, you're right about that. And after the fact, Mike Johnson goes on television and tells this story.

[00:05:25] He says, yeah, I walked in, you know, start of 24 with Biden. And I said, hey, Biden, why did you fund or why did you sign this gas whatever bill or this gas whatever lease thing? And you shouldn't have signed it. And it was a bad deal. And why did you do it, Joe? And Joe's like, I didn't sign that. What are you talking about? I just signed it. And so he literally says, I realized that Joe was incompetent then and then unable to run the country. I was very, very concerned. It was very, very scary.

[00:05:54] And then my response is, well, Mike Johnson, then why did you sit idly by when the president circumvented the primaries? And then when he said he was going to run and you knew full well he wasn't even competent in his current term, much less run for the next term. And you kept your mouth shut. Meanwhile, then you allowed the debt meltdown to happen at Christmas time and then pushed another big spending bill through. And now you've done it again.

[00:06:20] I mean, at some point you just go, Mike Johnson is culpable here to say the least, Ron. To say the least, indeed. I don't trust the guy. I think he's a bad egg. And I was very disappointed when President Trump supported him to remain a Speaker of the House. I was wondering what the man is – what in the heck is this guy thinking? I don't understand it. Trump is supposed to be famous for being able to read between the lines and detect bull capital.

[00:06:50] That's where they hit. And yet little Mikey is right there and in the way as far as I'm concerned. He's in the way. Well, and President Trump is doing a great job on so many fronts, but he's being undermined by the courts and by Mike Johnson and Congress. I mean, Congress seems to be derelict in their duty for the most part. I don't even know that they've accomplished very much. There's a couple of things and good on them, but not near enough.

[00:07:13] But now you've got black robes, judges gone wild, trying to overrule President Trump from the benches if they have the authority. Now, Congress could stop this in two seconds if they clarified some of the laws and said, no, no, no, no, hold on. But Congress sits idly by and goes on recess, and these robe thugs just go after Donald like nobody's business, like they're president or something. Well, the black robes gone wild are dependent upon the ignorance of the American people.

[00:07:41] I went over some of this yesterday on my show, and I talked about how the duties of the president are enumerated in our Constitution. And it's plain as day, okay? And so the president, as far as I'm concerned, I could be wrong, but I doubt it. But I think the president needs to go ahead and do what he has to do according to the enumerated duties there.

[00:08:04] And that supersedes these activist judges who are there to try to stop the good progress of restoring this republic to greatness. And that's why they're there. So I work with a group called the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association. I'm the CEO of the CSPOA. So I work with Richard Mack on the daily. Richard Mack had a showdown with Bill Clinton back in the 90s, and Bill Clinton said, we're taking away the guns and the sheriffs are going to be the tip of the spear to do it.

[00:08:32] And Richard Mack, as a county sheriff, said, no, you're not. And Bill Clinton said, shut up. I'll arrest you if you don't play ball, sheriff. And the sheriff said, I don't think so. They went all the way to the Supreme Court, and the sheriff won, and Bill Clinton lost. It's the greatest Tenth Amendment decision ever rendered. And this proves your point, sir. Yeah. And see, this is why it's so important for the American people to be brought up to speed on the Constitution and our Bill of Rights and even some of the Federalist Papers.

[00:09:02] So that their representatives, their president and the judiciary are not allowed to circumvent the other. I mean, the black girls gone wild are not there to make law. They're not there as enforcers of law. They're simply to interpret the law. That's what I understand. If I'm wrong, please correct me.

[00:09:27] But you have Justice Roberts and Amy Coney Barrett and these others are just – they have their own little grudges, whether it's against Trump or – they're willing to throw the entire nation overboard because of some imperfection that they can point to in President Trump. It's totally asinine. It's evil. Well, I will say this. We've got to stand together as the people.

[00:09:55] And if the people back President Trump, it can be too big to fail. And that's really what we need to push for in the meantime. We also need to really look at Congress with a very serious, you know, hey, if you people don't get this done, understand you've got, you know, less than two years now. And we're going to vote all of you out. We can absolutely get rid of the whole House if we, the people, are incensed enough. And that's where I think we need to go with this thing because Trump is doing the right things for the most part.

[00:10:23] And we've got to give him the support that he needs or else it's going to be nobody's fault but our own, Ron. Yeah, and it's – we have to discern better who we're electing as our representatives, et cetera. There are too many Republicans who are willing to be controlled opposition. All right. You talked about the black robes gone wild. I want to talk about the black robed regiment because that's one of the great answers and solutions today too.

Senator from Kentucky. Reserving the right to object, I lived for four months in Asheville, worked at the VA hospital, still have fond feelings for western North Carolina. But the thing is, is the reason why we won't do this in responsible ways is because the Senate voted to send all your money to Ukraine. I mean, they voted to send $200 billion to Ukraine. I've been all over the mountains of Appalachia when I ask people,

[00:12:17] would you rather that your senators take care of you here in Asheville or here in Pikeville, here in Appalachia, or would you rather them send your money to Ukraine? I don't get anybody wanting to send a penny to Ukraine. Look, you can have all kinds of sympathy in the world for Ukraine, a hostility towards Russia being the aggressor nation, but we don't have the money. We're $2 trillion in the hole. Interest this year is going to be $1 trillion. And as far as passing this, I'm willing to let it pass today. He's going to object to passing his own bill today simply because it gets paid for.

[00:12:44] I'm willing to let the bill pass, but take some of the fluff and boondoggle subsidies from the Green New Deal and put it into here. The money's sitting here. We put it into here for disasters. We help Asheville today. All right. Back with you live, ladies and gentlemen. Ron Edwards hosts the Ron Edwards American Experience talk show.

[00:13:11] Weekdays, 3 p.m. Eastern, 2 p.m. Central, 1 p.m. Mountain, 12 noon Pacific time. And, you know, it's a great show. It's something that really resonates with the people, folks. So you mentioned the black robes. We need the black robe regiment back, Ron. Yeah, and what that entails is that you have ministers who have the stones to stand up against evil

[00:13:41] and to be willing to fight for what's right. Unfortunately, today, it's more of a pink robe regimen, especially when you look at the mainline denominations and the big time in their own mind preachers of today. Beginning in the 1950s, most people don't know this. The CEI started infiltrating a lot of the churches and convinced them to steer away from exposing,

[00:14:07] you know, talking about what is right based upon the Ten Commandments and no longer tying that with the first Ten Amendments as it used to be taught in churches until the 1950s. And so we have to get back to that, sir. But like I said, so many of your preachers are so compromised. Oh, it's unbelievable. They are as immoral.

[00:14:34] So I equate the big time in their own mind preachers of today with government officials. They're both equally compromised, and it's a disaster right now. Now, you have millions of people separate from the mainline denominations who are praying for this nation and are working to help restore this great republic.

[00:14:58] And so they're genuinely reaching out to God for his guidance separately from the mainline preachers who have helped ruin this situation. All right, ladies and gentlemen, Ron Edwards also proudly serves as a board member and chaplain with Great Commission United. It's a worldwide chaplain ministry based in Michigan where he lives.

[00:15:24] And Mr. Edwards is married, got two wonderful grown children doing a great job. He's a proud father and everything else. But I believe God, family, country is the key to the exercise to the problems we face. And, you know, this idea that you're a minister. Hey, we need ministers to stand in the pulpit these days and not be afraid of the 501c3 status and not be afraid of the tax issue and just tell it like it is. And, you know, we could really energize the people with the spirit if we had the Black Robed Regiment back.

[00:15:55] I know there's a lot of pastors working on that, Chuck Baldwin, many others. But I really think that's one of the great keys to the exercise, Ron. It is. It is, absolutely. And we have to be willing to. Sometimes we face a lot of opposition from a lot of the mainline ministers. An example of this is that several years ago we were approached, my wife and I were approached by an organization

[00:16:20] to bring the concept of life back to the Black community. And so they asked us to reach out to the Black churches, and most of them slammed the doors in our faces, saying that we don't need to hear this. We don't need this in our church. Because most of those churches, under the leadership of those ministers, support abortion. And everything that the... They're like Jeremiah Wright stuff, aren't they? Oh, yeah. They support hating America.

[00:16:50] They support abortion. All the policies of the leftist white man, the socialist white man, on one hand they say, oh, the white man is bringing all these problems on us. They're racist, this, that, and the other. And then they follow it in the white man's leftist policies that they adhere to more so than the policies of Jesus Christ, whom they claim to worship. And when it comes to...

[00:17:19] They're still obeying Margaret Sanger, who persuaded Black ministers during her time, as she said, to quote her, find Black ministers with engaging personalities to persuade their congregants to accept abortion. And I come from this different viewpoint. I say, I don't want to hear about black men and white men. I want to hear about Americans standing together for God, family, and country. That's what I want to hear about, Ron. That's exactly right. But see, we have...

[00:17:47] That's where we have to also, to bring this in mind, education. All of these people, whether they're big time in their own mind ministers, whether they're just regular congregants who agree with whatever the Golden Donkey Party is dropping out, okay, it's because of the indoctrination process in the government schools,

[00:18:09] who drop out these ministers, who drop out all of these individuals who support leftism or socialism, which is destroying this country, and will fight you to the death or threaten you. And trust me, I know about this personally. They will threaten your life if you are not toying the line, okay? As far as socialism, they don't call it socialism.

[00:18:39] But everything, if you listen to them talk, it adds up to socialism and immorality. And they even look at immorality as a right. And they say, well, who are you to say what is wrong or what is right? And I tell them, it's not me, it's God. And that's who we're supposed to be following. Yeah, we just agree with the supreme creator of us all. Yeah. That's all. Yeah. Trump's to sign order today eliminating the education department.

[00:19:06] My response is that's great for Donald Trump to do so, but Congress has got to codify it or eventually it will be DOA. DOA. So Trump signing this, where the heck is Congress? And they're all hiding behind Mike Johnson, aren't they? Here we go. Back to Mikey. Little Mikey. And, you know, and that's a big problem. But I'm glad that President Trump is making noise about this. And he's doing as much as he can to decapitate the Department of Education

[00:19:35] because people don't know this. Well, some, many people, there are people that do know this. More are starting to learn every day thanks to your show and mine and others, right? Yeah. But a lot of people know that before the Department of Education, the United States was very highly rated as far as education. At one time, we were number one. Then came the Department of Education, and it's been downhill ever since. You cannot have a centralized, one-size-fits-all education department

[00:20:02] because the danger is, is what we have, the controllers, the leftist controllers that now run education, they can just infiltrate the minds of all American students who are in government school and turn them into youthful idiots. We have millions of them throughout this republic right now. So the headline I wrote for this is it's Ed's fault. It's who's fault? Ed.

[00:20:31] The Department of Education. It's Ed's fault. Education. Yeah, education. It is. Better owned indoctrination. All right. There you have it, ladies and gentlemen. But leftist agitators are now starting to swat conservatives left and right. It's become a big thing. And I guess what I'd like to do is have somebody investigate, like maybe Kash Patel over at the FBI, who I endorsed publicly in writing, needs to get to the bottom of this, though. What on earth is happening?

[00:20:59] There's become a pandemic of swatting going on against, you know, conservatives. The latest guy to get swatted is a talk show host. And to me, this is very interesting. So just so everybody understands, swatting is when somebody has the ability to call the cops and say, oh, my gosh, there's a crisis here. Go to this address. Deal with this crisis immediately with overwhelming force because it's, you know, radical. It's crazy. Well, the person calling in is not really the person's address at all.

[00:21:29] It's somebody else faking the call. And so now we see this big problem, right? And it started to become, I mean, if you're anybody, if you haven't been swatted, you're going to get swatted, Ron. Well, and I know that case and what you're talking about, the talk show host. And he did the smart thing. He called 911 and asked them, you know, communicated with them and let them know that what they're coming for is not reality.

[00:21:59] And he dealt wisely. And so he said that the police were very nice and this, that, and the other. And they understood. And in one case, they said that there was supposed to be a dead body in the basement and where they were located, there was no basement. And so, you know, in all of these cases so far, none of these things that are being called in are true. And so the police are beginning to pick up on this. And so I think there needs to be a way to find out who's doing this and trace the calls

[00:22:28] or whatever and start arresting people and throwing them in prison for a long time. But there needs to be care taken because if we let the pendulum swing too far, pretty soon the cops will be like, ah, this is bogus. And, you know, it could be real. So what it really takes, and this is the problem, is it's going to take investigative time from these cops and everything else. And I don't understand how they've allowed the system to really be the way it is now to where they can even fake this stuff these days after we've seen this so much, right?

[00:22:57] Well, you have this kind of fakery in problems in so many areas of law enforcement. Now, if you're in Islamist, you can block a street. And if someone tries to drive through, they can, I guess, gather around the car and crack the windows or do whatever, spit on the car, which I saw a case recently. And if you drive through, you could get in trouble if one of them gets hurt or something like that.

[00:23:25] And they're blocking the street. What if you have to get to work? You have an emergency. You're trying to live your life. And law enforcement allows people to block streets now. And so you're having these cases where people are getting beaten up. No, no problem. As long as the leftists are doing this. But sometimes when you defend yourself, then they'll come in and want to arrest you.

[00:23:52] So we have a big mess on our hands when it comes to law enforcement, unfortunately. Yes, we do. And the Constitutional Sheriff's and Peace Officers Association trying to bring sanity and reason to that. But our prayers are with our buddy Joe Paggs, who did the right thing. He called 9-11, explained the situation very calmly, didn't run out there with his gunner. He'd be dead right now, probably. So we're grateful that Joe Paggs knew what to do and he set the standard for the rest of us to be very, very careful indeed. Ladies and gentlemen, I've got Ron Edwards with me.

All right, live on your radio, ladies and gentlemen, riding shotgun today, Ron Edwards. Ron Edwards. And by the way, his show is called The American Experience. Now think about this. Ron Edwards. So it's called The Ron Edwards American Experience.

[00:30:41] And the reason I bring this up is Joe Rogan thought that Ron's show is so incredible, he named it The Joe Rogan Experience after Ron's lead. Because Ron's been at it probably as long as Joe's been alive. Not quite. But I'm just saying, come on. Interesting, isn't it? Absolutely. Just saying, Ron Edwards, The American Experience, everybody. The RonEdwards.com to learn more about his incredible work. I don't really know how to highlight this, except for this.

[00:31:10] Donald Trump is really trying to bring peace to the world. I personally think the United States ought to stay out of Ukraine and Russia, stay out of Israel and Hamas and whatever the heck, stay out of all these different places. But President Trump is trying to negotiate peace. I personally think there's a better way to go about it. But I'm really grateful that he's doing something for sure. But the wasteful war in Ukraine has got to stop. We don't have the money for this.

[00:31:39] Not only that, so many innocent lives are lost, Ron. Well, even if it doesn't stop, we don't need to be wasting our money and arms in that conflict. It was a regional war, by the way. And it was provoked by many years of NATO and the United States under Uncle Joe Biden. They've been poking the bear for a long time, to be honest with you.

[00:32:08] And that's more than just my opinion. It's a fact. I'm not saying that Putin is the greatest guy in the world, but in this situation concerning Ukraine war, he is not the bad guy. I mean, I can point to a much worse individual. Zelensky comes to mind. And NATO. I thought back in the 1980s, late 80s, they signed an agreement with Russia not to move

[00:32:35] NATO one inch further towards the Russian border. But they lied. I'm sorry? But they lied. Yeah. They're big liars. And so they've been selling wolf tickets to Putin for a long time. And they've been aggravating the guy for a long time. Whenever you see a movie, the only villains, it's the Russians, the Russians. They never, they hardly ever have anything, you know, as far as China or the terrorists,

[00:33:05] the Islamic terrorists or anything. It's always the Russians, the Russians. And it's just a never ending onslaught against Putin. And I know that Putin is not a globalist. That is the other reason why the NATO and the EU folks do not like him. And when Bill Clinton was in office, I believe Putin asked, you know, he said, look, I really want to get along with the West. I believe in trade, this, that and the other.

[00:33:34] I'd like to become a member of NATO. So Billy says, OK, I'll get back with you on that. And within a day or two, he said, no, they said, no, forget about it. Forget about it. And so the rest is you want to know what my response would be. Yeah. No, Russia, we're not going to let you out of NATO or we're not going to let you in to NATO because we're getting out of NATO. So now that we're both out, let's talk. Yeah.

[00:33:59] And and see, there's there was great respect between Putin and Trump because they're both alphas or at least sigma males. They're their leaders. They're strong guys. And they understand when you when you have an alpha male mentality or sigma male mentality, you come from the standpoint where he's strong. I'm strong. His nation's strong. My nation's strong. We don't really want to get into this, do we? No, we don't. And so they find ways to figure it out.

[00:34:29] And and it's so there can be peace. And you don't get into the the harsh conflict, conflict, rather. And and they understand this. And again, the EU leaders and the NATO leaders for most of them are globalist pigs and they hate Putin for not being a fellow globalist. And I think that's also part of their animus and antagonizing the bear all these years.

[00:34:55] And then you had the propagandized media in America and throughout Europe, the BBC and all of that just programming everyone's mind that Putin is the worst guy in the world. Now, I've heard and the best guy in the world is the lie. Well, yeah, yeah. And anyone who's who has been looking into Zelensky's little nation, we all know that that guy was a no good Nick. I mean, he was communicate. I mean, he was a comedian that was playing the piano with his a certain body part.

[00:35:26] I mean, that's that's where his head is. And by the way, he has been closing genuine Christian churches. I saw a video where his goons were walking, going into these churches, right, with these long sticks, whacking people on their backs while they, you know, running them out of these churches, even old ladies. And so this guy is a bad egg. And Trump knows it. But, you know, he's got to be the diplomat as well.

[00:35:54] And because everyone has been programmed to think that Zelensky's a good guy, so he can't really go after him the way he'd like to, even verbally. So it's a real tightrope that he is walking here. And I do. Oh, here's something else that I did hear. And I did read in a couple of sources, but I don't know if it's true or not, but I'm willing to throw it out there. I heard that Zelensky, you know, some of the armaments that we sent over there like dummies,

[00:36:24] okay, had been selling some of our armaments to cartel members at our southern border. And I'm not saying whether it's true or not, but this is something that I read. Well, it is true that we're the biggest arms dealer in the world. And it is true that a lot of our weapons fall in the wrong hands that end up being problematic for us on a variety of situations. That is for sure. Yeah.

[00:36:48] And, you know, Zelensky, I mean, we Russia should have been allowed to do whatever they had to do. I'm sorry. And besides that, you had the human trafficking that was going on. And in the first Trump administration, Putin and Trump were working on to devise ways to stop the human trafficking, which involved a lot of children in Zelensky land. Okay. And so I'm sorry.

[00:37:18] Yes, indeed. Yeah. And so that is why I say, you know, people really need to look at this thing objectively and they will see that it is not Putin who was the bad guy in this particular situation. And, you know, I'm sorry. Ukraine's a beautiful country, a lot of natural resources and all that. But I'm sorry, Zelensky needs to be taught a hard lesson. And he just won't. Well, I would say this.

[00:37:45] If we want to protect the Ukraine from Russia, because Russia is the bad guy. When is somebody going to protect me from the IRS? Let's just come here at home. They're more abusive to me and turn me into a slave. Dave, on a daily. Well, the Internal Revenue Service needs, in just my opinion, needs to be abolished. We should not even have a taxing code that you need people to run around bullying people for taxes.

[00:38:10] If you have a flat tax, sales tax situation, that's how taxes should be collected. There should be no taxes on your income. There should be no property taxes or anything like that. They're unconstitutional. They're not. Yeah, they're communist-style progressive taxes. We've got to just do apportionments at the state level and then tariffs at the border and get rid of all this internal garbage and do it yesterday. The sooner the better, I wish. Now, a GOP congressman is speaking out pretty boldly, and I find that interesting.

[00:38:40] He expects lawmakers in both parties to end up in handcuffs due to Doge findings. Joe Saunders with the piece.

[00:38:50] In an interview with Forbes, published on YouTube on Wednesday, Tennessee rep Tim Burchett, I think is how you say his name, said that Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency will not only end belligerent spending, cut spending, etc., but could also end up putting some lawmakers in handcuffs. And he took care to indicate that it wasn't just Democrats. It's both sides of the aisle.

[00:39:20] That's speaking truth to power, Ron. Amen. Amen to that. Yeah, and Doge needs to be totally unleashed because the waste has been so astronomical is that if it's not stopped, our republic will sink anyway under debt.

[00:39:46] And you cannot waste your wealth at this level and expect to remain a great nation. You can't do it. The twain don't meet. And so this has to be brought to heel. And those who are responsible in both parties, we know that, that it's both parties. They need to be handcuffed and thrown in prison for a long time, made an example to the world and shamed, tart and feathered and thrown in prison because.

[00:40:13] And we're all for due process, ladies and gentlemen, but let's have a transparent due process for these people. And then let's take care of business as we need to. Right. Yes, absolutely. And the end and they end up in prison because we know it's been done. I mean, the evidence is there. We just have to figure out who it is exactly. And they need, you know, justice needs to show up and do its thing. Amen to that. Yeah. All right. Hold on. Let's skip my break. We got too much to talk about, ladies and gentlemen.

[00:40:42] S.B. Wells has an article out over at naturalnews.com. And I don't know if this is true because I just don't know how to verify this. There's a lot of controversy about this. Okay. But all the bad guys say it's not true. So it might be true. But I want to bring this up because you might know more about this than I do, Ron. Mark Zuckerberg's real name is Jacob Greenland. Greenberg. Greenberg.

[00:41:11] And they say he's the grandson of David Rockefeller, hence the power of fake book. Now, I don't know if that's true or not. And the problem is everywhere else I look, they say it's not true. But when natural news comes up with something, they're pretty good. My buddy Mike over there, those guys do a good job. So do you know anything about this? To be honest with you, I don't know much about it.

[00:41:36] But, you know, according to the article, you've got information such as an article revealing the evolutionary biologist Christian Anderson wrote in those Slack messages that the lab escape version of the story isn't so frequently likely to have happened.

[00:41:59] Because they're already doing this type of work and the molecular data is fully consistent with the scenario that they're pointing out. But I don't, you know, if my life depended on it, I wouldn't want to take a stab at saying whether it's true or not. Because I don't know if it's true or not. All right. COVID cover-up exposed, ladies and gentlemen. This is the last piece we've got time here for. And this is going to take a little bit of time to break down.

[00:42:29] COVID cover-up exposed. The New York Times article now reveals that the conspiracy theorists were right all along. This is the blaze with this piece. Now, this one's very, very interesting indeed. Take the real story behind two influential publications, right? Early in the, quote, pandemic. We told you that it was bogus. We told you it was a pandemic right from the start. We told you we should never go along with these shutdowns and lockdowns and everything else.

[00:42:59] But baseless. The first one was a March 2020 paper in the journal Nature Medicine, which was written by five prominent scientists. And they declared that, quote, no laboratory-based scenario for the pandemic was plausible. The problem is they had to admit that it's real.

[00:43:26] So we got subpoenas of the Slack messages. And while the scientists publicly said that it wasn't plausible, privately, many of its authors said it was not only plausible, it was probable based on the evidence. The article reveals that evolutionary biologists, and this is the one you're talking about, Christian Anderson, says, hey, this is as real as it gets. Well, now this is in the New York Times.

[00:43:55] And so it's different than this Mark Zuckerberg story about his name and stuff like that. But I find this very, very interesting because even the New York Times is telling the truth on this now. I wonder how that could even happen. The blaze with this piece, and I guess Stu, Glenn Beck's co-host, is the one that came up with this thing, drilling into this. And he asks, you know, why would the New York Times tell the truth on this now? I think they might be forced to try to get out of harm's way, Ron, because you know what?

[00:44:25] RFKJR's coming for him, sir. And as they should be. And we knew all along that this, as I always called it, the coronavirus situation was nothing more than an effort, number one, to see how gullible people are. And they were shocked themselves. These people that brought it forth, Dr. Fauci and many others, they were shocked that 67% of the world's population went along with this.

[00:44:53] And they were more shocked that so many Americans went along with this. And I was shocked out of my wits as to how many people that I even personally knew, whether it was family members or whatever, friends or people I thought were my friends, went along with this and viciously turned on us because we did not go along this. We did not want the jab, et cetera, et cetera. We knew others that didn't want the jab because we didn't take the jab.

[00:45:21] You're ordered out of our lives. And I said, OK, see you. I hope I see you in heaven. And it's just been horrible. You walk into a store and get out if you don't have a mask on or if you want to come in, put a mask on. What I would do is because I had a mask and it had Trump on it. Huge letters. Right.

[00:45:48] And I'd walk into a store and they say, put on your mask. I'd say, you sure? Yes. So I put on the Trump mask. Oh, you can take it off. And so thank you very much. That's how I'd work that work around that. But here's what I here's what I used to say to the one that say, put on your mask. I say, I already have mine on. And they're like, sir, we don't see that you have a mask on. I said, look, God gave it to me. And if I had a mask like you or if I had your mask on, I'd look like you. Right. Oh, I like that.

[00:46:19] See, God created my mask. He gave it to me. And that's why I look like me. See, I'm a creation of the almighty male and female created me and them and you and everything. And your mask is created by God, too. And that's why it's different than mine, because we're all unique and we're all individuals. And so, you know, I don't know that I really want to cover up God's mask. Exactly. Are you sure you need me to do that? Yeah. People's eyes would glaze over. But see, here's the thing that made it so nefarious and so evil.

[00:46:45] I personally knew people that were chilled in hospital. One situation, a very, very prominent local activist, very conservative lady. She started an organization called Vote Biblically. And she was a very, very, very nice person. Right. So she contracted the coronavirus.

[00:47:11] And we knew how you how you can get rid of it. OK. And her sister, who was an avowed leftist to the nth degree, would not allow. And she didn't want to call her. And she didn't want to call her her good sister to even be visited by any of us because they knew she knew that we would give her things that would get rid of the coronavirus and she'd get out of there.

[00:47:37] But what happened was that the hospital gave her renduivir, which shut down her livers and kidney and killed her. And this happened many times throughout our republic during the coronavirus situation. This is how egotistical and how evil these people are. They wanted their will be done.

[00:47:55] And they were willing to use any kind of deception up to death to have their way because all it is is another step into convincing people that they should be controlled by the deep, dark state of depression, depravity. And doom. And so that was not the only case that I was well aware of. I've read about cases similar to that all over this republic.

[00:48:24] And it was heartbreaking. That these leftist people, even your own relatives, would turn on you like that because they were so loyal to this demonic philosophy based upon Karl Marx's way of thinking. And they were so desperate to control us. And they wanted to come up with something else, another one this year.

[00:48:50] And they may, but because of what happened, the good news on this, it was so pervasive and so well, well, you know, just so it covered the earth like Sherwin-Williams. I mean, it just covered the earth. And so so many people have been awakened. By this scenario, and they've been beginning to look at other things that are being worked against us. And so I don't think they'd be successful in this, you know, with another scenario similar to the coronavirus.

[00:49:20] I hope the American people have learned their lessons, Ron. I sure pray and hope for that because I never felt for it in the beginning. I stood against this. I knew it was wrong. I knew it was evil. I knew it wasn't true. You know, you just got to you just got to think, you know, when they start saying social distancing. Hey, that's the most antisocial thing you can do. And people need people. And you create mental crisis. You create greater alcoholism. You divide people up.

[00:49:48] You, you know, cause problems in education. You cause problems at work. You, I mean, they caused all kinds of mischief. Now more and more evidence is coming out. And hopefully RFK will get to the bottom of these vaccine scandals and prove them to be a fraud too. That needs to come out more boldly. We've now found out they lied to us. It was not only a lab leak, but an intentional lab leak. That's why the communist Chinese were so quiet about it. Whether we participated and how much we participated is still up for, you know, discussion.

[00:50:16] Because I believe the United States and Fort Detrick and some of these other things were involved in it too. But I digress. Yes, we've got to prove the vaccines to be bogus so that they can't try that avenue of control and manipulation again. Because if they do, at some point, they'll put nanotechnology in your body that will eventually control your mind and decision making if we're not very careful, Ron. Yeah, if we fall for it. And I think enough people are awakened to the reality of these things. And we knew from the beginning.

[00:50:46] I mean, when it was pointed out to us what happens when you're given those shots. Because they weren't even vaccines. Those that MRN or whatever they are, they're not even true vaccines. Yeah, they're just experimental gene therapy is what they are. And the things that they would do inside of the bodies, magnetize you or create these globs in your arteries.

[00:51:09] And people, you know, there's a much higher rate of cancer in people that took these things and other maladies. And so it's horrible that it happened. But maybe something that bad had to happen to wake people up. So that because it's going to take a lot of us working together to restore this great republic. And returner to become a land of liberty, of truth and justice for all.

[00:51:38] Because, you know, and once again, a land of life that celebrates life. That's one thing that set America apart from other nations. Our founding was based upon the celebration of life. The celebration of the individual. And that is a derivative of how God judges us as individuals. Equally important, but not the same. Not one size fits all.

[00:52:04] And that was a concept understood by the founding fathers and totally thrown out by these socialist pigs that are trying to still destroy this country from within. And we've got to overcome this to show like yours and everyone else who loves this country. And at whatever level you're at, whatever you're at, Tron, you have to use your energies to fight against this demonic darkness. And we can.

[00:52:34] And I do believe that we are going to have victory over this. I really do. Got to support Donald Trump when he's doing what's right, which is most of the time. Got to demand Congress gets engaged. They cannot sit on the sidelines any longer. We, the people, can't sit on the sidelines in the culture war any longer. We've got to shut down the activist judge courts and impeach those clowns. And we need to stand for the sacred cause of liberty and promote God, family, and country. That's the only way back, Ron. Amen. Amen.

[00:53:05] That's it. Because without God, we are. What did Ronald Reagan say? Without God, we will be one nation gone under, I believe. I know that's a paraphrasing, but one nation under God. If we're not one nation under God, we'll be one nation gone under.

[00:53:27] And so we have to restore our true relationship with our creator, with God or nature's God. So, yeah. Here's what he says. Just so you know, I looked up the quote. This is Ronald Reagan. Okay. If we ever forget that we're one nation under God, then we will be a nation gone under. Yeah. Your paraphrase was very good. Thank you. Man.
