[00:00:02] [SPEAKER_02]: Hour 2 Staying Of The News
[00:00:04] [SPEAKER_02]: Across America, live, this is what is the Point of View Weekend Edition and you are going to
[00:00:24] [SPEAKER_01]: hear some things today I can say without even hesitation that you probably will only
[00:00:28] [SPEAKER_01]: hear here or maybe hear first here and these are really going to be really important
[00:00:32] [SPEAKER_01]: issues.
[00:00:33] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to talk about a bill that is being considered that would try to reform
[00:00:37] [SPEAKER_01]: the court and we'll get into what that means in just a few minutes.
[00:00:40] [SPEAKER_01]: It's Kamala Harris today actually gave a speech advocating for price controls.
[00:00:47] [SPEAKER_01]: I think she should have given it in the original Russian.
[00:00:49] [SPEAKER_01]: That would be something that we learned about, how failure that was in the Soviet Union.
[00:00:55] [SPEAKER_01]: We're going to talk a lot about media malpractice and bias and everything and pen it extra commentary
[00:01:00] [SPEAKER_01]: on working men and we'll do our best to try to cover as much as possible.
[00:01:04] [SPEAKER_01]: But Pena, first of all, it's always good to see you.
[00:01:07] [SPEAKER_01]: But second of all, we're going to be talking about what's called No Kings Act.
[00:01:12] [SPEAKER_01]: And I think a lot of people have been hearing about this for the first time.
[00:01:15] [SPEAKER_04]: Well, because they're upset about the Supreme Court's decision on presidential immunity,
[00:01:21] [SPEAKER_04]: they've got to change the whole court.
[00:01:23] [SPEAKER_04]: At least that's the idea of the left or at least signal that they're going to do so.
[00:01:27] [SPEAKER_04]: So this is a huge, huge issue and I don't think we ought to ignore it or minimize it at all.
[00:01:35] [SPEAKER_04]: And so Kelly, I know that you guys are doing a lot.
[00:01:38] [SPEAKER_04]: In fact, you're probably the lead organization on this issue.
[00:01:43] [SPEAKER_03]: It's the biggest issue that is not really being focused on by the media that people could miss.
[00:01:51] [SPEAKER_03]: But I've been talking to a lot of people over the last week on this, leaders, national people.
[00:01:57] [SPEAKER_03]: And let me say this, if I had to put a percentage chance, I would say that there's a 25% chance
[00:02:06] [SPEAKER_03]: that a year from now our country is over.
[00:02:09] [SPEAKER_03]: And so it's the issue to talk about.
[00:02:13] [SPEAKER_03]: And they said, what are you talking about?
[00:02:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, but nobody's talking about it but us.
[00:02:16] [SPEAKER_03]: So you know, people are looking at like Biden pushing this, we've got to reform the court,
[00:02:22] [SPEAKER_03]: term limits, we've got to have an ethics code.
[00:02:25] [SPEAKER_03]: By the way, they've had an ethics code for a long time.
[00:02:28] [SPEAKER_03]: We've got to and then these crazy and they go, he can't do that.
[00:02:33] [SPEAKER_03]: He doesn't have the votes for that.
[00:02:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, of course he doesn't.
[00:02:36] [SPEAKER_03]: And then Schumer posing a bill that we're going to talk about that's just really radical
[00:02:40] [SPEAKER_03]: and not only strips away and tries to say, well, we are going to now
[00:02:45] [SPEAKER_03]: redetermine something different from what the court said or what the constitutionality is.
[00:02:49] [SPEAKER_03]: And we're going to create it so that if you want to challenge our bill,
[00:02:54] [SPEAKER_03]: the highest court will be the DC Circuit Court, which by the way is like,
[00:02:58] [SPEAKER_03]: you know, nine Democrats and four Republican appointees.
[00:03:02] [SPEAKER_03]: So it's something so we're just going to, we're just going to ignore Article Three
[00:03:06] [SPEAKER_03]: of the Constitution and you know, it says that they're the Supreme Court.
[00:03:10] [SPEAKER_03]: And we're, and you go, oh, that's just silly.
[00:03:12] [SPEAKER_03]: He can't do that.
[00:03:13] [SPEAKER_03]: True.
[00:03:13] [SPEAKER_03]: But why are they doing these things?
[00:03:16] [SPEAKER_03]: They're doing it because the base, this is what they want.
[00:03:20] [SPEAKER_03]: They want, they want to get rid of the Supreme Court.
[00:03:23] [SPEAKER_03]: They want to quote, this is a Washington Post headline overhaul the U.S. Supreme Court.
[00:03:29] [SPEAKER_03]: Now, what can they do?
[00:03:31] [SPEAKER_03]: They can't do constitutional amendments.
[00:03:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay. Term limits would take a constitutional amendment even if they had,
[00:03:37] [SPEAKER_03]: but if they win, if they, if one party controls the presidency,
[00:03:42] [SPEAKER_03]: the house and the Senate, what could they do?
[00:03:45] [SPEAKER_03]: There's one thing they could do.
[00:03:47] [SPEAKER_03]: They could court pack.
[00:03:49] [SPEAKER_03]: They could add four, five, six, 10 justices to the Supreme Court.
[00:03:54] [SPEAKER_03]: And you know, it's not a coincidence that Kamala's head of communications is Brian Fallon,
[00:03:59] [SPEAKER_03]: the head of demand justice.
[00:04:01] [SPEAKER_03]: They're number one issues court packing.
[00:04:03] [SPEAKER_03]: And if you look, this is what the base wants.
[00:04:05] [SPEAKER_03]: So if they use this to energize the base and they get this,
[00:04:10] [SPEAKER_03]: this is what's going to happen.
[00:04:11] [SPEAKER_03]: And so that's, and once you court pack, whether it's Argentina, Venezuela,
[00:04:15] [SPEAKER_03]: you look at any of the countries, you're done.
[00:04:17] [SPEAKER_03]: The first day you do it, you're over because the rule of law is over.
[00:04:21] [SPEAKER_03]: And so this is something that has to be forced out in the discussion between now
[00:04:26] [SPEAKER_03]: and November.
[00:04:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Every politician should be forced to answer this question.
[00:04:31] [SPEAKER_03]: And hopefully, because the American people are not for this,
[00:04:35] [SPEAKER_03]: hopefully if that's done, we can put this to rest.
[00:04:38] [SPEAKER_03]: But if not, this could literally, I mean, again, a year from now we could be over as a country.
[00:04:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Just take some majority vote and everything is done.
[00:04:48] [SPEAKER_04]: If the court has become politicized, we don't really have a court.
[00:04:52] [SPEAKER_04]: So you're right.
[00:04:53] [SPEAKER_04]: This is a question I have about it.
[00:04:55] [SPEAKER_04]: Okay, this is not popular with the American people.
[00:04:58] [SPEAKER_04]: Even Joe Biden basically made statements that packing the court was not a good idea.
[00:05:05] [SPEAKER_04]: And then later he wouldn't say in 2020 if he was going to pack the court or not.
[00:05:10] [SPEAKER_04]: And then they had a commission and they never, they decided not to go there.
[00:05:14] [SPEAKER_04]: So now it's a base issue.
[00:05:17] [SPEAKER_04]: It appeals to, is this the most radical part of the base that it appeals to?
[00:05:21] [SPEAKER_04]: And this is why they don't mention it?
[00:05:24] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[00:05:24] [SPEAKER_03]: But think of what that means.
[00:05:26] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, what most radical part is what percent.
[00:05:29] [SPEAKER_03]: So like back when they tried to do this right at the beginning of Biden's term,
[00:05:34] [SPEAKER_03]: and they created a court, a commission to reform the Supreme Court.
[00:05:39] [SPEAKER_03]: The first polling that we did, because we tried to educate people on this,
[00:05:44] [SPEAKER_03]: the first polling we did showed 61% of Democrats were in favor of court packing.
[00:05:51] [SPEAKER_03]: This is, they'd had the Roe v. Wade overturned.
[00:05:54] [SPEAKER_03]: They didn't like the court.
[00:05:55] [SPEAKER_03]: And they thought, yeah, let's add three or four or five justices who are liberal.
[00:06:00] [SPEAKER_03]: And but after the campaign, at the end of the campaign when they actually took their vote,
[00:06:05] [SPEAKER_03]: we had moved that number.
[00:06:07] [SPEAKER_03]: This is Democrats down to 41%.
[00:06:10] [SPEAKER_03]: So they had begun to understand, no, this is bad for everybody.
[00:06:14] [SPEAKER_03]: So, but that is, that's, you know, that you'd say, well, that's not a lot, but 40%.
[00:06:22] [SPEAKER_03]: You know, you got 40% of a party.
[00:06:25] [SPEAKER_03]: That's probably going to happen.
[00:06:26] [SPEAKER_03]: If they've got total control of the Senate, the House, the presidency,
[00:06:31] [SPEAKER_03]: and that's why this is dangerous.
[00:06:33] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, you know, they can't use this.
[00:06:36] [SPEAKER_03]: Biden is saying, this is his number one priority.
[00:06:38] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, he can't do it, right?
[00:06:40] [SPEAKER_03]: So why is this at the top of the list?
[00:06:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Because this is exactly, if they had the power to do this,
[00:06:46] [SPEAKER_03]: this is what they're telling the base.
[00:06:48] [SPEAKER_03]: And if they win, they're not going to turn back around and say, well,
[00:06:51] [SPEAKER_03]: we're not really going to do this because there's nothing to stop them at that point.
[00:06:56] [SPEAKER_03]: So the time to stop this for our country is between now and the election.
[00:07:03] [SPEAKER_03]: I really think if in those debates, they force this out, or if on the stump,
[00:07:09] [SPEAKER_03]: this is forced out, and the American people demand an answer to this,
[00:07:15] [SPEAKER_03]: I think we can stop this.
[00:07:17] [SPEAKER_03]: But if not, we're in some real danger.
[00:07:20] [SPEAKER_03]: And you know, if you don't think it's true, just keep watching the newspapers
[00:07:24] [SPEAKER_03]: because, I mean, every day there's a new attacking.
[00:07:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Like the headline of the Washington Post that, you know, we all looked at it,
[00:07:31] [SPEAKER_03]: it said the headline was, we have to quote, check the Supreme Court to preserve the rule of law.
[00:07:38] [SPEAKER_03]: So let me just say straight, so the politicians are going to say,
[00:07:42] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't like your decision.
[00:07:43] [SPEAKER_03]: So we're going to like redo this one.
[00:07:45] [SPEAKER_03]: And that's going to create the rule of law.
[00:07:47] [SPEAKER_03]: No, that's going to create the destruction of the rule of law.
[00:07:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Everything is politicized.
[00:07:53] [SPEAKER_03]: And if people don't understand this with packing the court, if you add four justices,
[00:07:58] [SPEAKER_03]: five justices, you might think you have a constitutional right.
[00:08:03] [SPEAKER_03]: You don't.
[00:08:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Whatever right you think you have, you don't have.
[00:08:06] [SPEAKER_03]: All they have to do is whoever's politically in power,
[00:08:09] [SPEAKER_03]: they can just add the next day however many justices they need to take that right away.
[00:08:14] [SPEAKER_03]: And this is what the history of every other country who's done this shows you.
[00:08:17] [SPEAKER_03]: So this is about whether we remain a country or become a banana republic.
[00:08:23] [SPEAKER_03]: And again, it might seem crazy, but it is exactly what they're talking about
[00:08:28] [SPEAKER_03]: and what they will do if they have the opportunity.
[00:08:30] [SPEAKER_01]: As we go to a break, let me just mention that the first video was actually a video that you did
[00:08:34] [SPEAKER_01]: at First Liberty about the No Kings Act.
[00:08:38] [SPEAKER_01]: And I thought we'd come back and talk about that proposed by Chuck Schumer.
[00:08:43] [SPEAKER_01]: What is it? Two dozen senators signed on with that.
[00:08:47] [SPEAKER_01]: So we'll talk about what that means right after this.
[00:08:58] [SPEAKER_01]: This is Viewpoints with Kirby Anderson.
[00:09:02] [SPEAKER_01]: Professor Paul Kanger argues that you can never have enough kids.
[00:09:06] [SPEAKER_01]: He was on my radio program last week to talk about his article.
[00:09:09] [SPEAKER_01]: He confronts what he calls the mindless cliché of our culture.
[00:09:13] [SPEAKER_01]: Wait until you have enough money to have kids.
[00:09:15] [SPEAKER_01]: He hears it regurgitated by young couples all the time.
[00:09:18] [SPEAKER_01]: Then he takes the time to calmly ask them a few questions.
[00:09:22] [SPEAKER_01]: How many kids did your grandparents have?
[00:09:24] [SPEAKER_01]: How about your great-grandparents when they came to America dirt poor on pack ships headed to Ellis
[00:09:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Island? When they acknowledged that those ancestors had a bunch of kids, he then asked them,
[00:09:35] [SPEAKER_01]: how much money did they have? He has found that a young man or young woman is usually taken
[00:09:39] [SPEAKER_01]: aback. They haven't heard that from the culture. They know their ancestors had no money but
[00:09:44] [SPEAKER_01]: raised large intact families and stayed married. In fact, they wouldn't be alive today without those
[00:09:49] [SPEAKER_01]: ancestors bestowing the gifts of life. He also asks a follow-up question.
[00:09:54] [SPEAKER_01]: How much money will be enough before having that kid?
[00:09:57] [SPEAKER_01]: How much cash should be shoveled into this child's materialistic ideal existence?
[00:10:03] [SPEAKER_01]: He has found that people who focus on having enough money will find that they never have
[00:10:07] [SPEAKER_01]: enough. On the radio program Paul Kanger also reminded us that the greatest gift you can give
[00:10:12] [SPEAKER_01]: your child is a sibling. When people find out how many kids his wife and he have, they say,
[00:10:17] [SPEAKER_01]: one kid has been hard enough for us. His response is that one kid is harder but two kids are easier.
[00:10:23] [SPEAKER_01]: The one child gets a playmate other than you. He explained that when he only had one child,
[00:10:27] [SPEAKER_01]: he had to come home and play Legos for hours. When the second boy came along, he had boundless
[00:10:32] [SPEAKER_01]: energy and was all in. We need messages like this in a culture that doesn't seem to value
[00:10:38] [SPEAKER_01]: children anymore. I'm Kirby Anderson and that's my Point of View.
[00:10:46] [SPEAKER_02]: For a free booklet on a biblical view of intelligent design, go to viewpoints.info
[00:10:52] [SPEAKER_02]: slash intelligent design. Viewpoints.info slash intelligent design.
[00:10:59] [SPEAKER_02]: You're listening to Point of View, your listener supported source for truth.
[00:11:04] [SPEAKER_01]: Back once again, Pinnott Xtrek Kelly Shackleford in studio with us today.
[00:11:08] [SPEAKER_01]: And again a little bit later if you'd like to make a comment or ask a question,
[00:11:10] [SPEAKER_01]: feel free to give us a call. We have posted this 16 minute interview that you did Kelly the other day
[00:11:16] [SPEAKER_01]: which you referred to as Schumer's Revenge on the Court because we're talking about the fact
[00:11:20] [SPEAKER_01]: that Chuck Schumer, as you said the other day, not a backbencher but the majority leader in
[00:11:26] [SPEAKER_01]: the Senate and 23 other senators actually signed on to the No Kings Act. And yet if
[00:11:33] [SPEAKER_01]: you've been receiving some of the material from Kelly Shackleford, for example he reminds
[00:11:38] [SPEAKER_01]: us that 72% of Americans believe that this politicization of the Supreme Court threatens judicial
[00:11:45] [SPEAKER_01]: independence and 69% do not want the court setting rules for the judiciary which this one
[00:11:50] [SPEAKER_01]: have to do with immunity. But Chuck Schumer wasn't looking at all those surveys and again
[00:11:56] [SPEAKER_01]: probably will not implement it initially but if you begin to change the complexion of the
[00:12:02] [SPEAKER_01]: House and the two bodies of the legislature some of that could happen, couldn't it?
[00:12:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Right. That's the issue. Yeah. I mean that's the thing is that people look at this and they think
[00:12:12] [SPEAKER_03]: I will you know what's the big deal right? I mean they propose to build a takeover
[00:12:18] [SPEAKER_03]: of the Supreme Court but it's not some person, some random person. This is the majority leader.
[00:12:25] [SPEAKER_03]: It's like the Speaker of the House you know proposing to take over the Supreme Court
[00:12:29] [SPEAKER_03]: and it's just so brazenly partisan. I mean yes the Supreme Court will not be the court that
[00:12:37] [SPEAKER_03]: can ever hear this case. We will limit the final court will be the DC Circuit Court.
[00:12:43] [SPEAKER_03]: We're just going to pick which one we like because they think they're partisan or more
[00:12:47] [SPEAKER_03]: partisan for us. I mean it's just it's unbelievable but and that's why some people
[00:12:53] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean people who are really savvy they look at this and they go we don't have to worry
[00:12:56] [SPEAKER_03]: about this. This is not going to happen. It's you know Mike Johnson in the House has already
[00:13:02] [SPEAKER_03]: said this stuff is dead on arrival. True it is dead on arrival for the next you know five months
[00:13:09] [SPEAKER_03]: right? But so you got to ask yourself why are they doing this? Why is Biden standing up?
[00:13:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Why is Biden saying in the Oval Office my number one priority before I leave
[00:13:22] [SPEAKER_03]: is reforming the court when he can't do it? Why is Schumer doing this? They are doing this because
[00:13:29] [SPEAKER_03]: this is exciting people in their base to get out and vote. And if they win what do you think
[00:13:37] [SPEAKER_03]: those people will expect? And so again it can't happen unless one party has the presidency, the
[00:13:46] [SPEAKER_03]: House and the Senate. But that's exactly what we had four years ago and the only reason we don't have
[00:13:53] [SPEAKER_03]: court packing and we didn't have this disaster on us is because Manchin and Sinema refused to buck
[00:13:59] [SPEAKER_03]: the filibuster but they're gone. I mean there's nobody left who have said as a senator I'm going
[00:14:07] [SPEAKER_03]: to hold to the filibuster no matter what. So I mean it's just majority vote at this point
[00:14:13] [SPEAKER_03]: on packing the court so that's what you know people look at it and they go ah it's not going to
[00:14:18] [SPEAKER_03]: happen we don't need to focus on that. And I mean I've got people calling me I've never met
[00:14:23] [SPEAKER_03]: from across the country saying that I mean they're just they see they're perceptive they
[00:14:29] [SPEAKER_03]: look and they say this is this is the biggest thing in the country and I'm going yes it is
[00:14:35] [SPEAKER_03]: and most people have no idea. So that's one of the great things about point of view is
[00:14:40] [SPEAKER_03]: there's things that are talked about at point of view that are huge especially to believers
[00:14:45] [SPEAKER_03]: that you don't hear anywhere else. And again I mean the way Kirby is he's Mr. Factician right and
[00:14:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Bibbless Blybical Factician so he's going to check everything so you're not going to hear
[00:14:56] [SPEAKER_03]: nobody ever says well Kirby's always spouting a bunch of things that aren't true I mean nobody
[00:15:01] [SPEAKER_03]: ever says that. So you know it's it's checked out here so these are just things not being
[00:15:06] [SPEAKER_03]: covered people aren't paying attention to and that's the great thing is you are now hearing this
[00:15:11] [SPEAKER_03]: if you're on point of view. Friends it's you can go it's I don't think it's up yet or probably
[00:15:15] [SPEAKER_03]: be up early next week but there's there's stuff on there now you can look at but you can go to
[00:15:19] [SPEAKER_03]: Supreme Ku. Coup French supremecu.com and get info on why this is bad what's going on there's
[00:15:28] [SPEAKER_03]: the latest news there's all that kind of stuff but early next week we will have out
[00:15:33] [SPEAKER_03]: the top half of the page will be here's why this is bad but the bottom half of the page
[00:15:38] [SPEAKER_03]: will be what cannot hear the things you can do and so there's a take action right now but it's
[00:15:44] [SPEAKER_03]: going to be developed even more I mean for instance it's not hard to write a letter to
[00:15:48] [SPEAKER_03]: the editor and we're going to have examples as people in your community start seeing this
[00:15:52] [SPEAKER_03]: they'll go wait a second yeah I didn't realize this could happen and it'll cause them to
[00:15:59] [SPEAKER_03]: start talking to force this on the candidates to force this issue out in public there's memes
[00:16:05] [SPEAKER_03]: already done you put up on your social media there's all kinds of things that people regular
[00:16:10] [SPEAKER_03]: people can do and that's what we want to do we want everybody to be involved and so
[00:16:14] [SPEAKER_03]: as a point of view listener you're hearing about it a little early before the campaign
[00:16:18] [SPEAKER_04]: launches next week I it's such a simple really argument too I mean even if you just are talking
[00:16:24] [SPEAKER_04]: to someone about it to say we won't have a court anymore do you understand that if you can add
[00:16:30] [SPEAKER_04]: justices then the court is not a court it's a policy organization because whoever's in power will
[00:16:37] [SPEAKER_04]: be adding the judges right and I mean that is so I think easy to understand so that's good
[00:16:44] [SPEAKER_04]: and you could talk about you have a good talking and then you've got the history
[00:16:46] [SPEAKER_03]: of the other countries if you say oh you know that would never happen it's what happens every
[00:16:51] [SPEAKER_03]: time you know look at Argentina look at Venezuela look I mean just look at history and of course
[00:16:57] [SPEAKER_03]: it's logical it's why what I love is back you know in 1936 37 when FDR tried to push this on the
[00:17:05] [SPEAKER_03]: country very popular president I mean 80 of the senate 80 there were 80 senators who were
[00:17:13] [SPEAKER_03]: democrats that's how overwhelming one party had across the country and FDR didn't want the court
[00:17:19] [SPEAKER_03]: bucking his his legislation by striking things down but you know what the country then was a
[00:17:25] [SPEAKER_03]: little more in tuned with sort of the principles of our country and they immediately realized
[00:17:31] [SPEAKER_03]: and this is what they said they were averaging 1200 letters a day in the senate they said this
[00:17:35] [SPEAKER_03]: is tyranny they knew what would happen and so I think the American people like pen is saying
[00:17:41] [SPEAKER_03]: just it just takes a little information for them to be almost stop and now think about
[00:17:46] [SPEAKER_03]: what's going to happen and then I think they realized and that's what our polling showed
[00:17:51] [SPEAKER_03]: most of the country is against this but even the democrats when we first started this campaign back
[00:17:57] [SPEAKER_03]: when they had the right when Biden came in they had the house the senate and the presidency
[00:18:03] [SPEAKER_03]: they started off you know 61 in favor but by the end of the education campaign they were down
[00:18:16] [SPEAKER_03]: if you're smart you might want an advantage for your side but you don't want to destroy all sides
[00:18:22] [SPEAKER_03]: to where there's that you we're into tyranny and we're into whoever has the power controls everybody
[00:18:27] [SPEAKER_04]: so there's another issue that we've referenced and I just want to make sure that people see
[00:18:32] [SPEAKER_04]: that this is a different issue and it's what Chuck Schumer wrote about in the Washington Post
[00:18:39] [SPEAKER_04]: today and you know that's huge that he proposed this it's a law that that he is proposing that
[00:18:46] [SPEAKER_04]: congress would pass he says in this op-ed that 36 of his colleagues have actually introduced it with
[00:18:53] [SPEAKER_04]: him and it's the no kings act right yes no king's act so what they want to do is they don't like
[00:19:00] [SPEAKER_04]: the the supreme court decision this term on presidential immunity right the presidents do
[00:19:07] [SPEAKER_04]: have immunity and they want to change that and they want to do it legislatively and so but
[00:19:15] [SPEAKER_04]: they are writing into the law that if this law was challenged which it would be if it ever passed
[00:19:21] [SPEAKER_04]: probably not going to pass but later it might it might if it ever passed the law has written
[00:19:28] [SPEAKER_04]: right into it that the supreme court could not be appealed yes it would be the DC
[00:19:33] [SPEAKER_03]: so take this correct me up which is a little a little problem under the constitution yeah just a
[00:19:38] [SPEAKER_03]: little I didn't know that was something different the not so supreme you know every time I look in
[00:19:43] [SPEAKER_03]: article three I I just haven't seen these words the not supreme not supreme well first of all
[00:19:49] [SPEAKER_01]: let me just again encourage you because we haven't spent a lot of time talking about the no kings
[00:19:53] [SPEAKER_01]: act but if you'd like to watch that 16 minutes and I think you and Stuart do a good job of
[00:19:58] [SPEAKER_01]: educating us a pen is written about this on Monday August 12th I wrote about it and Kelly at the time
[00:20:05] [SPEAKER_01]: in the piece I wrote talked about how Joe Biden back in 1983 said that court packing was a bone
[00:20:11] [SPEAKER_01]: head idea didn't sound like him a terrible terrible mistake and of course Kelly says he was right
[00:20:16] [SPEAKER_01]: back in 1983 is wrong today so if you're looking for some facts as soon as you update
[00:20:22] [SPEAKER_01]: supreme coup will make that front and center because I think that would be really helpful
[00:20:26] [SPEAKER_01]: but you will find right now if you click on that which I did just a minute ago
[00:20:29] [SPEAKER_01]: a couple things do pop up already to educate you about this particular piece of legislation
[00:20:35] [SPEAKER_01]: and we come back from the break will you hear anything about it in the democratic convention
[00:20:41] [SPEAKER_01]: next week maybe not directly but indirectly they will be actually pilloring the supreme court
[00:20:48] [SPEAKER_01]: decisions and attacking supreme court justices in ways you've never probably seen in a
[00:20:53] [SPEAKER_01]: political campaign and we come back I want to also point out this piece from our friends
[00:20:58] [SPEAKER_01]: at media research center when they polled 1200 democrats and independent voters did they know
[00:21:06] [SPEAKER_01]: what Kamala Harris believes in and they did not anywhere from 86 percent we're unaware to a 71
[00:21:14] [SPEAKER_01]: percent and of course since she's not doing any interviews that gets us to another piece so we
[00:21:19] [SPEAKER_01]: have by Ben Shapiro about legacy media's last gas so we have a lot to cover and we'll do that
[00:21:26] [SPEAKER_02]: right after this the bible tells us not to worry and yet there is a lot of worrying stuff in our
[00:21:38] [SPEAKER_02]: world today thankfully the bible doesn't stop at telling us not to worry god gives us a next step
[00:21:46] [SPEAKER_02]: he says we need to pray but sometimes even knowing what to pray can be difficult and that is why
[00:21:54] [SPEAKER_02]: point of view has relaunched our pray for america movement a series of weekly emails to guide you
[00:22:02] [SPEAKER_02]: in prayer for our nation each week you'll receive a brief update about a current issue

[00:22:14] [SPEAKER_02]: we'll also include a short free resource for you in each email so you can learn more about the issue

[00:22:49] [SPEAKER_02]: will you are listening to point of view the opinions expressed on point of view do not
[00:23:05] [SPEAKER_02]: necessarily reflect the views of the management or staff of this station and now here again
[00:23:12] [SPEAKER_01]: is curvy anderson that once again of course tomorrow will be a lot of the
[00:23:18] [SPEAKER_01]: promount preliminary material before of course you have the democratic national convention
[00:23:22] [SPEAKER_01]: the press has talked about enthusiasm among democrats and independence that has jumped
[00:23:29] [SPEAKER_01]: according to a monmouth poll from 46 percent to 85 percent so a lot of people are very enthusiastic
[00:23:36] [SPEAKER_01]: even before the democratic national convention but penned extra kelly shackleford we have an
[00:23:41] [SPEAKER_01]: article here it actually goes on for almost 10 pages and i like what brent bozell says
[00:23:47] [SPEAKER_01]: it's 2020 all over again because the media has barely been covering up some of the stories that are
[00:23:54] [SPEAKER_01]: certainly going to be appropriate about who you're going to elect as the next president
[00:23:58] [SPEAKER_01]: kelly you suggested off air and i'll do it on air that this goes on for pages but let me just
[00:24:03] [SPEAKER_01]: give you a few highlights for example of the 1200 registered democrats and independent
[00:24:09] [SPEAKER_01]: biden voters 81 percent did not know that she supported the elimination of private health insurance
[00:24:17] [SPEAKER_01]: 78 percent did not know that she promoted a fund to bail out the violent protesters in 2020
[00:24:25] [SPEAKER_01]: 77 percent did not know she supported the abolishing of ice 75 percent did not know she
[00:24:32] [SPEAKER_01]: was the most liberal u.s senator more liberal than bernie sanders when that poll was done
[00:24:38] [SPEAKER_01]: and many many more in my upcoming booklet that we're mailing out to you right now i remind you
[00:24:43] [SPEAKER_01]: that the same group media research center after the 2020 election did interviews with people that
[00:24:49] [SPEAKER_01]: had voted for joe biden and ask him did you know this did you know this did you know this and
[00:24:53] [SPEAKER_01]: there were about seven questions and every one of them said no i did not know that and i would
[00:24:58] [SPEAKER_01]: have changed my vote if i had and this was in the so-called six now i think we have seven
[00:25:04] [SPEAKER_01]: swing states so these are important it a lot of what we're going to be talking about is media
[00:25:10] [SPEAKER_01]: malpractice media bias but kelly when you look down this list i thought it was encouraging
[00:25:16] [SPEAKER_01]: the other day that at least even if the press is not going to talk about that in one of the
[00:25:20] [SPEAKER_01]: campaign rallies donald trump just showed the videos of kamala harris as senator or vice president
[00:25:27] [SPEAKER_03]: making all these statements yeah if you look at this campaign by kamala harris it to me it's a mixture
[00:25:34] [SPEAKER_03]: of the biden campaign people and the obama people yes right and uh if you know what's going on so
[00:25:43] [SPEAKER_03]: number one the biden people it's the basement strategy right now it's for a different reason
[00:25:50] [SPEAKER_03]: it's not because of biden's positions that they hit him it's because he
[00:25:55] [SPEAKER_03]: i mean those of us who were paying attention the whole time knew he wasn't he wasn't of the
[00:26:00] [SPEAKER_03]: mental capacity and energy and everything to be president and so they they hit him in the
[00:26:07] [SPEAKER_03]: basement and it worked right and add that to the obama approach of sort of fuzzing the issues
[00:26:16] [SPEAKER_03]: and just being for hope and change and it's even the black and white uh uh you know
[00:26:23] [SPEAKER_03]: visual that they use of obama that they're using of of kamala right now you know if you go on the
[00:26:30] [SPEAKER_03]: website that's what you see look at time magazine right it's not a picture it's not it's it's this
[00:26:36] [SPEAKER_03]: black and white so it's this and that's why their their new thing is joy you know it's like
[00:26:41] [SPEAKER_03]: how can you be joyful when inflation's up 20 percent and when you know all these things are
[00:26:46] [SPEAKER_03]: happening so it's it's all about emotion and about substance so that's the approach the reason
[00:26:53] [SPEAKER_03]: they are doing basement strategy with her is because she number one when she comes out in public
[00:27:02] [SPEAKER_03]: and extemporaneously speaks or answers questions as has happened in the democratic primary she drops
[00:27:10] [SPEAKER_03]: like a rock so she was one of the more popular candidates in the democratic primary unpopular
[00:27:17] [SPEAKER_03]: no at the beginning of her career was probably number two i see where you're going number two maybe
[00:27:22] [SPEAKER_03]: three and then drop she dropped down to one percent when she dropped out it was just a matter of months
[00:27:29] [SPEAKER_03]: and so they are going to see if they can have less of her out there so you know she said
[00:27:36] [SPEAKER_03]: she might do an interview by the end of the month okay an interview meanwhile donald trump's did a
[00:27:43] [SPEAKER_03]: two-hour talk with elon musk he just did a i don't know i think it was an hour and a half interview
[00:27:48] [SPEAKER_03]: with a press yesterday i mean all this but and you know when they pick that interview it's going to
[00:27:54] [SPEAKER_03]: be it's going to be controlled of who they picked to do the interview too so this is the whole
[00:27:59] [SPEAKER_03]: strategy and i you know i think the thing that i think the thing that is going to make it
[00:28:05] [SPEAKER_03]: difficult for her to pull this off although the media is definitely trying to help her
[00:28:10] [SPEAKER_03]: is with biden you could keep him in the basement and people couldn't see how frail or how lacking in
[00:28:17] [SPEAKER_03]: in capacity and what was going on there but with kamala you already have her positions
[00:28:24] [SPEAKER_03]: she's got the videos of her stating that she's going to get rid of fracking and fossil fuels
[00:28:29] [SPEAKER_03]: right that that she wants to take away everybody's health insurance or private health insurance
[00:28:34] [SPEAKER_03]: you've got this all these things that she's already said so i think it's going to be hard for her to
[00:28:41] [SPEAKER_03]: avoid those positions becoming known eventually well i was glad that trump at the montana rally
[00:28:48] [SPEAKER_04]: put them out there he put them on the jumbo tron screen because um there's been a basement strategy
[00:28:55] [SPEAKER_04]: but it's a modified basement strategy because she's out there but she's not saying anything
[00:29:01] [SPEAKER_04]: she's not she's not forced to take positions on most of these things but she will be i mean
[00:29:08] [SPEAKER_04]: there has to be a moment when she is if she debates so you know we have to hold that loosely too but
[00:29:14] [SPEAKER_04]: the debate will be good i think i think almost no matter who asks the questions there are going
[00:29:21] [SPEAKER_04]: to have to be questions on some of these issues that the american people care about so you know
[00:29:26] [SPEAKER_04]: she will have to begin talking and i think they might have to throw out some of those previous
[00:29:32] [SPEAKER_04]: clips if she reverses her position and explains why but that she could do that i don't know
[00:29:43] [SPEAKER_04]: i don't think so i don't think she could explain reversal on fracking why are you reversing it
[00:29:49] [SPEAKER_04]: you were very strong on it you know why are you reversing the gun buy buy back program
[00:29:54] [SPEAKER_04]: why do you not think that anymore explain your position these are things that we should be asking
[00:29:59] [SPEAKER_04]: her and hopefully we will get the chance they've also reduced the chances that she would be able
[00:30:04] [SPEAKER_04]: to answer these and again can they make it all the way to election day without her ever having
[00:30:10] [SPEAKER_03]: to answer these well and she's got it and she's in a difficult position because she's
[00:30:17] [SPEAKER_03]: the policies of the biden harris administration are highly unpopular
[00:30:22] [SPEAKER_03]: if you look at the polling even yesterday inflation the people know exactly whose fault that was right
[00:30:31] [SPEAKER_03]: and now again i bet if you polled and you ask how many you asked these people
[00:30:36] [SPEAKER_03]: how you know would it surprise you to know that she was the the the tie voted the vote that
[00:30:43] [SPEAKER_03]: was the tiebreaker on this in the senate on pushing all this inflation and all these
[00:30:48] [SPEAKER_03]: policies i bet that a lot of people wouldn't know but again she's still biden harris and and so
[00:30:56] [SPEAKER_03]: what is she going to do with that because if people vote on that issue they're not voting for her
[00:31:02] [SPEAKER_03]: and so is she going to distance herself from from the policies i don't see how she can not
[00:31:06] [SPEAKER_03]: yesterday because they were together yeah on the podium and so you know they'll be there at the
[00:31:10] [SPEAKER_03]: convention yeah the border yeah which you know 10 million or more people flooding into our
[00:31:16] [SPEAKER_03]: country illegally you've got these things that are very unpopular of the biden harris administration
[00:31:23] [SPEAKER_03]: she's harris so again right now it's all like and i understand i understand it a little bit
[00:31:30] [SPEAKER_03]: look if you're the democratic party and joe biden was your candidate and he he couldn't i mean he's
[00:31:37] [SPEAKER_03]: just obviously not at full capacity and you think we are just going down and you're just watching
[00:31:43] [SPEAKER_03]: this week after week and you're thinking there's no hope and then all of a sudden he's moved out of
[00:31:48] [SPEAKER_03]: the way and there's chance for somebody else you're a you're euphoric no matter who it is because you
[00:31:55] [SPEAKER_03]: actually got a chance now that's what we're seeing right now in the polls i think so and then so
[00:32:00] [SPEAKER_03]: i don't i don't think it really has much to do they're going to try to prop kamala up but uh
[00:32:05] [SPEAKER_03]: but really it's they're excited that they're in the game and uh and it'll it'll come down to
[00:32:11] [SPEAKER_03]: the campaign but i i just can't imagine that you could have a candidate for president who has these
[00:32:17] [SPEAKER_03]: positions already and has the administration already and unless the trump side does a horrible job
[00:32:24] [SPEAKER_03]: with their commercials and everything else pointing out what the positions are showing her
[00:32:30] [SPEAKER_03]: video showing the biden harris position talking about inflation talking about the border all these
[00:32:36] [SPEAKER_03]: things i just don't see how you how she can just stay in the basement the whole time
[00:32:40] [SPEAKER_04]: and avoid talking about the i don't put it past them to be able to figure out a way for her to do that
[00:32:46] [SPEAKER_01]: but it will be hard well you got karen's for kamala you got christians for kamala you know
[00:32:53] [SPEAKER_01]: i got that uh editorial and christianity day of all things about black pastors excited about that
[00:32:59] [SPEAKER_01]: i mean they're just you're going to be hearing a lot of that next week during the democratic
[00:33:02] [SPEAKER_01]: convention and it'll be interesting to see how tightly scripted you got the david franches
[00:33:07] [SPEAKER_01]: of the world yeah david french writing for that on new york times and i think it's almost impossible
[00:33:13] [SPEAKER_01]: to predict this jill rogan says he's going to vote for robert f kennedy june here on the other end
[00:33:18] [SPEAKER_01]: you got uh african-american males higher percentage than voting for trump and every time before
[00:33:23] [SPEAKER_01]: tulsi gabbert saying that uh kamala harris is an empty suit uh it's real hard to figure out where
[00:33:28] [SPEAKER_01]: this is all going i mean the um lines are being redrawn right before our very eyes but let's
[00:33:35] [SPEAKER_01]: come back and talk about the media interesting comment of in steven cobert's program the other day
[00:33:41] [SPEAKER_01]: which i thought you'd like to hear and ben Shapiro has some things to talk about it right after this
[00:33:50] [SPEAKER_04]: last year to coincide with labor day senator marco rubio's office issued a report entitled
[00:34:01] [SPEAKER_04]: the state of the working and non-working man labor day 2024 comes amidst presidential campaigns
[00:34:07] [SPEAKER_04]: in which the american working class is a key constituency senator rubio's report lays some
[00:34:12] [SPEAKER_04]: groundwork by stating that prime age men who are not in the labor force report feeling sad
[00:34:17] [SPEAKER_04]: and purposeless at much higher rates than men with jobs these men spend more time alone than those
[00:34:23] [SPEAKER_04]: who are working more than two-thirds of these non-working men have never married and nearly
[00:34:27] [SPEAKER_04]: a third live with their parents almost half of them take painkillers daily and they are more
[00:34:32] [SPEAKER_04]: likely to take their own lives the report points out that working men face a crisis of their own
[00:34:37] [SPEAKER_04]: their outcomes and prospects in work education and family life are dimmer than their fathers
[00:34:42] [SPEAKER_04]: because they face an economy and society that no longer rewards their efforts the way they once
[00:34:47] [SPEAKER_04]: did the report cites several contributing factors one is mass immigration another is
[00:34:53] [SPEAKER_04]: deindustrialization with manufacturing being replaced by a service economy writer and consultant
[00:34:58] [SPEAKER_04]: erin renne publishes a sub stack newsletter which tackles challenges unique to men in our
[00:35:03] [SPEAKER_04]: society mr. renne says that although senator rubio supports working to reindustrialize america
[00:35:09] [SPEAKER_04]: it's not a panacea he says this report wisely avoids over promising what can be accomplished by
[00:35:14] [SPEAKER_04]: reindustrialization we need more men in what the report calls protector professions like policing
[00:35:20] [SPEAKER_04]: border patrol and the military areas where arguably expansion is needed anyway the report
[00:35:26] [SPEAKER_04]: recommends eliminating the marriage penalty in federal assistance programs and it wisely
[00:35:31] [SPEAKER_04]: recommends making it mandatory that able-bodied men be actively looking for work in order to
[00:35:36] [SPEAKER_04]: receive any public benefits some of the report's recommendations unwisely expand government we
[00:35:42] [SPEAKER_04]: must adopt common sense policies that encourage men to work and to become independent marry
[00:35:47] [SPEAKER_04]: and form families for point of view i'm pennadexter you're listening to point of view your
[00:35:58] [SPEAKER_01]: listener supported source for truth back once again let me just encourage you to also go to
[00:36:05] [SPEAKER_01]: a couple of the articles one of those has to do with the issue of the media now it kind of relates
[00:36:10] [SPEAKER_01]: to one i just mentioned a minute ago this very extensive evaluation from the media research
[00:36:15] [SPEAKER_01]: center illustrates i think why so many individuals who are seen as democrat or independent
[00:36:22] [SPEAKER_01]: biden voters know nothing about where she stands on the issues but pennadew one of the other
[00:36:27] [SPEAKER_01]: ones i thought would be appropriate is written by our friend ben shapiro and it really kind of
[00:36:32] [SPEAKER_01]: surfaced when you had cnn's katlyn collins if you're not familiar with her a while back she was
[00:36:39] [SPEAKER_01]: asking some really tough questions of donald trump said well you're really mean but anyway
[00:36:44] [SPEAKER_04]: katlyn collins was on steven cobert remember that yes she was on steven colbert uh and you know
[00:36:50] [SPEAKER_04]: well we have a clip but uh we'll play it in a minute but she um i she was trying to be i guess
[00:36:58] [SPEAKER_04]: even handed i thought in this by explaining why trump isn't performing all that well and you know
[00:37:05] [SPEAKER_04]: certain venues and so you know but really that's not what she i don't know she got thrown a little
[00:37:12] [SPEAKER_01]: bit so i think so let's do it well let's hear first of all from katlyn collins and then
[00:37:16] [SPEAKER_00]: steven cobert's comment he really got at last week and is still the case now from what we're hearing
[00:37:21] [SPEAKER_00]: is trump has kind of been thrown on his heels by this and he's not really sure how to go after
[00:37:26] [SPEAKER_00]: vice president harris he knew his attack lines on president biden he really has struggled with how
[00:37:32] [SPEAKER_00]: to how to go after someone who's 20 years younger than him who is a different gender a
[00:37:36] [SPEAKER_00]: different race it's kind of been this moment where he has not been able to coalesce around
[00:37:42] [SPEAKER_02]: a single attack line i know you guys are objective over there that you just report the news as it is
[00:37:48] [SPEAKER_02]: oh i know i see an end makes it and i know that's supposed to be a laugh line i wasn't supposed
[00:37:52] [SPEAKER_01]: to be but uh i guess it is um i guess it is yes that was the thing i mean he says again you
[00:38:00] [SPEAKER_01]: i know you guys are objective over there at cnn you just report the news as it is
[00:38:04] [SPEAKER_01]: and of course i see the smiles around the table and probably a lot of people smiling
[00:38:08] [SPEAKER_01]: right now over the broadcast but he wasn't intending that to be a joke but again it
[00:38:15] [SPEAKER_03]: turned out to be a laugh line what a great um i don't know what you know it just shows the liberal
[00:38:22] [SPEAKER_03]: bubble that cobert and uh and cnn are within here's the bubble in her face yeah she was triggered
[00:38:30] [SPEAKER_03]: yeah she was triggered by this oops yeah yeah and it's but it's the reality people know
[00:38:35] [SPEAKER_03]: we're not being straight i mean you know you watch cnn you're not going to get a balanced uh
[00:38:41] [SPEAKER_01]: you know but if you go to steven cobert you probably are going to be left to center
[00:38:45] [SPEAKER_01]: and they're all laughing at that yes i mean that's the thing it just gave me a little hope
[00:38:50] [SPEAKER_04]: not a touch the whole country thinks the media is not doing its job well again let's go back
[00:38:56] [SPEAKER_01]: to ben shepiro's piece because a lot of what we're going to be talking about is the need for
[00:39:00] [SPEAKER_01]: the press to do its job and i don't think that that's going to happen but he talks about the fact
[00:39:06] [SPEAKER_01]: that everybody laughed and everybody knows that and then he reminds us going all the way back to
[00:39:11] [SPEAKER_01]: 2008 and since our memories are usually pretty short that during the candidacy of barack obama
[00:39:17] [SPEAKER_01]: no one in the press wanted to talk about jeremiah right anti-semitic and uh all sorts of other
[00:39:25] [SPEAKER_01]: issues with the uh the whole group there as well and then treating donald trump this way and then of
[00:39:32] [SPEAKER_01]: course not even over three and a half years being willing to admit what all of us could see and that
[00:39:38] [SPEAKER_01]: is donald trump is a lot more energetic than joe biden was and yet as soon as joe biden's out
[00:39:46] [SPEAKER_01]: of the way now they're talking about donald trump is so old but a couple of weeks ago
[00:39:50] [SPEAKER_01]: weren't even interested in interviewing any of these media specialists remember last week
[00:39:55] [SPEAKER_01]: we talked about that all of a sudden all these media specialists and all these brain surgeons
[00:40:00] [SPEAKER_01]: are coming out saying well we think that donald trump's a little bit too old and you couldn't
[00:40:04] [SPEAKER_01]: find any of those people two months ago they portray so many of the things that he says but
[00:40:09] [SPEAKER_04]: if you see him say it you see perfect coherence but they portray it as oh this is a sign that
[00:40:15] [SPEAKER_04]: you know senility is coming on it's because they don't agree with his positions it's really sad
[00:40:21] [SPEAKER_03]: i mean you know we're really losing a lot of our institutions certainly the respect for the
[00:40:29] [SPEAKER_03]: institutions i mean journalism is a great profession at least it was um it's just so hard now to find
[00:40:37] [SPEAKER_03]: people who really are objective journalists now everybody's got their own personal bias
[00:40:43] [SPEAKER_03]: but at least the goal was to not let that influence the story and that's not the goal
[00:40:50] [SPEAKER_03]: anymore with most uh and so as a result it's really hard for americans to find information
[00:40:58] [SPEAKER_03]: because they don't think they can trust anybody and they're right uh so i mean it really is it
[00:41:05] [SPEAKER_03]: really is sad uh and that's you know that's that's why point of view is different from all the
[00:41:10] [SPEAKER_03]: other shows in that it says this is from a christian worldview uh and trying to analyze all these things
[00:41:17] [SPEAKER_03]: and people know that kirby's not going to come out here and say something uh that's not factual or not
[00:41:22] [SPEAKER_03]: biblically he's going to check he's going to do his research he's going to try his best to
[00:41:26] [SPEAKER_03]: provide the information and the arguments from a biblical worldview of why these positions are
[00:41:32] [SPEAKER_03]: right or wrong and people just can't trust very many people to do that these days so you
[00:41:38] [SPEAKER_04]: know point of view or other outlets that are providing the truth um and then other people
[00:41:44] [SPEAKER_04]: share these on social media and then they are tagged with this being disinformation misinformation
[00:41:50] [SPEAKER_04]: you know over the past few years so much deep platforming of people and all of that
[00:41:55] [SPEAKER_04]: and so you know that's something that we've had to complain about and come back and and try to
[00:42:01] [SPEAKER_04]: fix so um yes there isn't there's alternative media now i mean we were the only alternative
[00:42:07] [SPEAKER_04]: media for you know many years but there is uh and people do have to find that but it you know when
[00:42:14] [SPEAKER_04]: it's then they come back and brand it as disinformation that's another part of their
[00:42:18] [SPEAKER_04]: i guess their battle plan but um it's uh ben Shapiro makes the point that the debate happened
[00:42:26] [SPEAKER_04]: and that sort of blew up the uh the democrats um you know i guess narrative narrative strategy
[00:42:33] [SPEAKER_04]: it blew it up and so the media's actually did its job for about three weeks but i i think they were
[00:42:39] [SPEAKER_03]: all in on it i really do i mean i you know i remember we were sitting here i think when
[00:42:44] [SPEAKER_03]: they came out with setting that debate and they said it before the convention and and i
[00:42:50] [SPEAKER_03]: immediately said there's never been a debate before the convention they're trying to get
[00:42:55] [SPEAKER_03]: rid they're yeah they're either intentionally trying to get rid of joe biden or they're
[00:43:01] [SPEAKER_03]: testing real quick the very least testing but probably wanted to throw him and i think if you
[00:43:07] [SPEAKER_03]: look if you look back at those questions i mean this is from cnn if i'm not mistaken it was
[00:43:13] [SPEAKER_03]: they were the toughest danabash yeah that was not not typical that's right and so that's why
[00:43:21] [SPEAKER_03]: you look at all that together and you think this was stuck to their timing they they cut them off
[00:43:27] [SPEAKER_03]: they didn't let them it it was fair yeah we never see a fair one you know so i i really think that
[00:43:35] [SPEAKER_03]: this is all part of the they realize the only way we're going to get rid of him is to expose this
[00:43:40] [SPEAKER_03]: in front of everybody and then they'll realize okay he can't do it um so so i you know i think
[00:43:46] [SPEAKER_03]: that's that i wish and you know in what comes ahead we would see because people can see through
[00:43:53] [SPEAKER_03]: this stuff right they can see if the media is not being fair if they're being biased i mean people
[00:43:58] [SPEAKER_03]: people can see that so i just i'm sad for the institution i mean the freedom of the press
[00:44:04] [SPEAKER_03]: is something that is crucial for us to be the country that we are and we're losing it in a big
[00:44:11] [SPEAKER_03]: way and hopefully the competition of other groups coming forward to try to fill that gap and be
[00:44:19] [SPEAKER_03]: what they should be will will win the day but right now it's so sad to see so many of these
[00:44:24] [SPEAKER_04]: yeah three weeks of doing their job and then they reverted to form very quickly didn't they
[00:44:29] [SPEAKER_01]: as we go to a break let me just mention that we have an election central now first of all you
[00:44:34] [SPEAKER_01]: will find a link to Kelly's website which is very good as well we also each day have posted
[00:44:40] [SPEAKER_01]: another article the one most recent one is one from Cal Thomas about low-interformation
[00:44:44] [SPEAKER_01]: voters last week i think i talked about the one we posted by john stone street about
[00:44:49] [SPEAKER_01]: the lesser of two evils we have a whole section on fact checkers after the break i want to talk
[00:44:54] [SPEAKER_01]: about some fact checkers you don't want to believe in because some fact checkers need to be fact
[00:45:00] [SPEAKER_01]: checked and certainly we give you what we think is the best resources and of course a link
[00:45:04] [SPEAKER_01]: to places like first liberty institute we'll be back right after this in 19th century london two

[00:45:20] [SPEAKER_02]: london was home to carl marx the father of communism and legendary baptist preacher charles spurgeon
[00:45:28] [SPEAKER_02]: london was in many ways the center of the world economically militarily and intellectually
[00:45:35] [SPEAKER_02]: marx sought to destroy religion the family and everything the bible supports spurgeon
[00:45:40] [SPEAKER_02]: stood against him warning of socialism's dangers spurgeon understood christianity is not just
