You're listening to Radio Looks, listen, I'm your host Steve Matthews. Thanks for joining me for episode 79. The title of this episode is
00:29
Justin Trudeau Trolls the Truckers and Other COVID News. Well, thanks for joining me here.
00:36
Today is, well, it's at the very end of Saturday, Saturday, February the 5th, 2022.
00:44
So thanks for joining me here on the live stream and also to everybody listening on the podcast. I hope everybody had a great week this week.
00:50
You know, here in Cincinnati, we had our first real taste of winter weather. It was kind of interesting.
00:57
On Thursday, we had this pretty much an all day ice storm. And then we got some snow on top of that.
01:03
That wasn't a whole lot of snow, just a little bit, maybe a couple inches or something like that in my area. But the the ice underneath that, that snow is really something.
01:13
And I went out to shovel the driveway and all that. And you couldn't even break through the ice. It's kind of interesting.
01:18
Tonight, I got a an email as well as a phone call from an automated phone call from my church.
01:25
And they said that they weren't able to clear the parking lot at church for the same reason. I guess they were able to get the top layer of snow off.
01:32
But there's all this ice that's still that under underlying ice pack is still there.
01:38
And they were cautioning people, you know, hey, you know, you may not want to come if you're you're concerned about maybe taking an injury or a spill or something like that.
01:46
So I'm gonna brave it. I'm gonna I'm gonna be a man I'm gonna I'm gonna show up for for church in the morning.
01:52
But I know that it's not that that's not something that maybe that everybody has a has a choice to be able to do.
01:59
And at least they let people know about that. So that was good. You know, this past week, we had we had
02:05
Groundhog Day. Yes, we had Groundhog Day. And in probably people in other parts of the world, maybe you think everybody in the
02:11
United States is insane. And I don't know, maybe, maybe they are. I don't know. I was actually motivated to look up an article,
02:19
I found an article on on Britannica, talking about Groundhog Day. And this is what it says.
02:26
It says a Groundhog Day in the United States and Canada. So I didn't know that they had that in Canada. So I learned something right there.
02:32
It's in Canada. I thought it was just the United States. But now they have this in Canada. It's February 2. It's on which the emergence of the
02:40
Groundhog or Woodchuck. Hermann's Burrow is said to foretell the weather for the following six weeks.
02:46
The beginning of February, which falls roughly halfway between the winter solstice and the spring equinox, has long been significant time of the year in many cultures.
02:54
Among the Celts, for example, it was the time of Imbolc, observed in anticipation of the birth of farm animals and the planting of crops.
03:02
And February 2 is also the day of the Christian Festival of Candlemass. Okay, I didn't know any of that stuff.
03:09
Since 1887, an animal in Punxsutawney, that is Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, in the west central part of the state has been the center of a staged appearance each
03:17
February 2. What has become a media event, the Groundhog designated Punxsutawney Phil is the center of attention of television weathermen and newspaper photographers.
03:26
Although promoters of the local festival surrounding Punxsutawney Phil claim that the animals have never been wrong, an examination of the records indicates a correlation of less than 40%.
03:35
Hmm, guess Phil doesn't have a very good track record, it seems. Whether Groundhog does or does not emerge is thought to be related to the amount of fat it was able to store before going into hibernation.
03:48
Canada has a number of Groundhogs that serve as weather prognosticators, perhaps the best known being those portraying
03:54
Weirton Willie. Never heard of Weirton Willie. A white -furred, pink -eyed creature that has appeared on the
04:01
Bruce Peninsula northwest of Toronto since 1956. Hmm, very interesting.
04:09
Anyway, so that's the big rundown on Groundhog Day. I hope you had a great Groundhog Day. You know, there's an interesting thing too in the news that I saw this week.
04:18
There's this rumor that's going around that Bill de Blasio, the former commie mayor of New York, killed a groundhog,
04:25
I guess a few years ago on Groundhog Day. So I actually went out and I went to Snopes. Now I'm not a big huge fan of Snopes, but I figured, you know, why not at least see what they had to say.
04:35
So they ask here, this is a fact -checking website, did Bill de Blasio kill a groundhog? This old
04:41
Groundhog Day rumor is circulating again. And what's interesting is you go down and their rating on this.
04:48
In fact, let me see if I can get that up here on the screen.
04:55
Yeah, there we go. They actually call it a mixture. I don't say it's false, it's a mixture.
05:02
And they say here that during the Groundhog Day ceremony in 2014, New York Mayor Bill de Blasio accidentally dropped a groundhog.
05:08
A few days later, that groundhog passed away. However, a spokesperson for the
05:15
Staten Island Zoo said that the de Blasio incident and the groundhog's death were unrelated.
05:22
So I guess Bill de Blasio did drop a groundhog, but at least according to the
05:27
Staten Island Zoo, it had nothing to do with the groundhog subsequently dying a few days later.
05:33
So who knows? But I would say that that would be the least of the sins of Bill de
05:41
Blasio, who did more than his fair share of wrecking New York City with the
05:49
COVID stuff and all of the other garbage he's done over the years. He's kind of left New York a smoldering ruin.
05:57
Kind of a one -man wrecking crew. So I mean, maybe he should just go back to dropping groundhogs.
06:02
I guess maybe if that's the only thing that he did during his time as mayor, I guess maybe they wouldn't have a whole lot to complain about.
06:08
Anyway, oh, hey, I did have one announcement I did want to mention here today. I just got my podcast added today to Spotify.
06:16
So if you want to listen to Radio Luke's Lucid on Spotify, you have the Spotify podcatcher.
06:22
Just go on there. You can just type in Radio Luke's Lucid. It's going to come up. There's no other Radio Luke's Lucid out there.
06:27
So if you want to go ahead and sign up for that feed, you can do it that way. Of course, I'm still on Apple Podcasts as well.
06:35
So you can subscribe to the Apple Podcast feed of Radio Luke's Lucid.
06:41
Also, of course, you can listen to it on my blog. And I do post on the
06:46
Thorn Crown Ministries website as well. So you can get the podcast there. And finally, one last place,
06:51
I do have a very small Substack account that I started a few months ago.
06:58
I haven't really pushed it a whole lot to advertise it, but I've just kind of been putting stuff out there. If nothing else, because it's a free speech website and I do want to promote those kinds of websites.
07:08
So it's called the Scripturalist. If you go on to Substack and you type in the
07:14
Scripturalist, you should see my account come up and you can subscribe to that feed as well.
07:20
And I do post not only blog posts out there, but I also put out the weekly podcast as well.
07:25
So that's one last way that you can can get Radio Luke's Lucid. All right, so enough of that stuff.
07:32
I wanted to get started here. Why don't we get down to the business at hand here today. And the business at hand in this particular case is dealing with Justin Trudeau and his trucker buddies, which aren't really his buddies at all.
07:45
And he seems to have nothing but utter disdain for them and for anybody else who, say, might support them.
07:53
There's a tweet that he put out. This was February 1st. It was earlier this week.
08:00
And this tweet, I think maybe more than anything else I've seen from him, really kind of encapsulates Justin Trudeau's disdain for what he views as the peasantry or what we would just say ordinary middle -class
08:13
Canadians. So this is what he said. I'm going to go ahead and read this tweet here to you.
08:19
Today in the House, members of Parliament unanimously condemned the anti -Semitism, Islamophobia, anti -Black, that's
08:26
Black with a capital B, anti -Black racism, homophobia, and transphobia that we've seen on display in Ottawa over the past number of days.
08:34
Together, let's keep working to make Canada more inclusive. So what you have here is a word salad from this of a prime minister.
08:42
This guy, he's just this arrogant little fop. And he puts together this tweet.
08:50
And in this tweet, what he does, he just throws in every woke insult I think he could think of off the top of his head.
08:57
And the other thing, notice what he didn't say. He never once addressed their concerns about the vaccines, about all the mandates, about all the lockdowns, all of the stuff that he is substantially responsible for foisting on the
09:11
Canadian people. And they finally said enough of this stuff. And we're pushing back on it.
09:18
But Justin Trudeau doesn't even want to acknowledge any of that. He wants to pretend as though none of that's a factor.
09:24
And these are just very, very bad people with very, very bad motives. And they don't deserve even so much as be listened to, even acknowledged.
09:32
They're beneath his contempt. And of course, Justin Trudeau has kind of become the poster child of this sort of thing, this sort of arrogant, out of touch elite that has taken over what used to be known as the free world.
09:46
I heard a song, I guess it's a protest song that some Canadian band did.
09:52
It's called Keep on Truckin' in the Free World. And it was, I guess it's obviously, it's a takeoff on Neil Young's Keep on Rockin' in the
10:01
Free World. That's actually a pretty good song. That thing actually really rocks. But I'm sure
10:07
Neil Young wouldn't like it at all. But these guys, it's amazing to me, the level of disdain that, and it's not just Justin Trudeau.
10:17
I'm using him because he right now is the most prominent person out there that is really acting like, lording it over his people.
10:26
He's exactly that kind of guy. And I've mentioned this before, and it bears mentioning again, remember Jesus' words.
10:32
The rules of the Gentiles love to lord it over them. And those who exercise authority like to be called benefactor.
10:40
So I mean, these are people who's very arrogant people. And they like to exercise their authority.
10:48
They love bossing people around, lording it over people. But they want people to think, oh, what a great benefactor
10:54
I am. So I mean, here's Justin Trudeau out there. He's trying to polish his woke credentials and show everybody just how righteous he is.
11:04
He littered Twitter with all of the woke insults that he could find.
11:14
And I guess he probably thinks he's maybe a really righteous dude. I don't know. But he's insufferable.
11:21
And he's like so many other of these political leaders, and not just political leaders, but people in the media, people in religious leaders,
11:31
Christian leaders, you think about academic leaders, think about people in the entertainment industry.
11:38
I mean, the level of arrogance and the way they talk down to people is just,
11:45
I've never seen it like this in the so -called free world. I mean, we used to talk about that.
11:50
We used to actually talk about the free world. I grew up during the Cold War, and you had the Soviet Union, and it was all gray and terrible, and all of this stuff.
11:58
And it was bad. But then we had the free world. And we were great because we were the free world. And we didn't do these kinds of random things where you're locking people down, taking their rights away, destroying their businesses, destroying their lives, forcing them to take medicine that they don't want to take.
12:18
I mean, that would have been unthinkable. When I was growing up in the 70s and 80s, that was unthinkable that something like this could take place.
12:27
And yet here we go, and it's the new normal. I mean, that's the way they try to sell this thing to us.
12:35
But I mean, all Justin Trudeau can do is he can just, all he does is just name call. He never addresses any of the concerns and pretends as though by doing this, that it's all going to go away.
12:45
And I don't think that's going to happen. And I pray that it doesn't happen. And I pray that people, that Justin Trudeau and other people like him, get their well -deserved comeuppance.
12:56
Last week, we talked some about how he mentioned that the truckers and their opinions were unacceptable.
13:03
So I guess you have the unacceptables up there in Canada, just kind of like what we have here in America.
13:09
We have the deplorables. Hillary Clinton called us the deplorables back in 2016.
13:15
So you got the deplorables here in the United States, and you got the unacceptables up there in Canada. But it's the same attitude.
13:22
I mean, Justin Trudeau has the same attitude to the Canadian people as Hillary Clinton does to the American people, and Barack Obama, and any number of other people out there who have shown very clearly their disdain for the people that they claim that they want to govern and that they want to represent.
13:52
There's an interesting article kind of along those same lines. And this is by Paul Craig Roberts. And the headline is pretty striking.
13:59
He says, Austria, a resurrected Third Reich. And you know, he's right about that.
14:04
I mean, that's exactly what you see going on in Austria, where they have set a hard date by which everybody has to be vaccinated.
14:14
If they don't get vaccinated, I believe they incur a pretty high fine. And the country seems to be quite all right with that.
14:23
And one of the points that he makes in, I don't know if it's in this article, maybe it's in another one, is that it's not these bureaucrats in Austria that are imposing it.
14:33
It's actually the elected representatives of the people that have done this, have supported this. And I've also said this before, too, and that is with this whole thing with COVID, it really does seem like the
14:45
Nazis have been resurrected. I mean, this is just flat -out fascism. This is virtually the dictionary definition of fascism.
14:54
Well, I thought he wrote something very well here, and he said this quite well. I'm going to go ahead and just read this paragraph to you.
15:02
He says this. This is Paul Craig Roberts. He says, compulsory COVID vaccination is set to be imposed on Austrians.
15:08
This is a direct violation of the Nuremberg laws. Will the swastika go up all over Europe?
15:15
Is there a mere ounce of intelligence and integrity anywhere in the Austrian government? It is an established fact that the
15:23
COVID vaccine fails to protect. It is an established fact that COVID is deadly only to those with comorbidities who are not with effective means such as HCQ, ivermectin, or monoclonal antibodies.
15:37
It is an established fact that the COVID vaccine results in a high rate of health injury and death.
15:43
It is an established fact that the mass vaccination spawns new variants. It is an established fact that the vaccine is, therefore, counterproductive."
15:52
And of course, Paul Craig Roberts is exactly right. But despite of all of those facts that he just laid out there quite nicely for us, the
16:00
Austrian government is apparently going to proceed full steam ahead with shoving these vaccines in everybody's arms.
16:09
And it's just astounding to me that this is something that can go on, again, in countries that we would have considered not too long ago to be part of the free world.
16:22
You know, the Neil Young song, he's out there, you know, keep on rocking in the free world. Well, we would have considered that the free world.
16:29
I mean, that was Western Europe, you know, that was part of the part of NATO. And, you know, they stood against the, you know, the
16:35
Soviet Union, the Warsaw Pact, and all that stuff. But I mean, Austria, I mean, good grief. I mean, they've just seen, it seems,
16:42
I'm sure that's not true of all Austrians. I'm sure there are a lot of Austrians that don't like this stuff. You've seen demonstrations out there.
16:48
So it certainly strongly suggests that. But nevertheless, the government seems to be going full bore with forcing vaccines, these very deadly vaccines on the entire population.
17:00
I don't know. I mean, they want to wipe out their entire population. I mean, as you know, some people have talked about that, you know, the possibility that the
17:06
COVID shots are depopulation weapon. And you can't just dismiss that out of hand.
17:13
I mean, that's something that a few years ago, if somebody had said that I would have said, well, that seems like crazy conspiracy theory.
17:20
But I think it is certainly a possibility. It's not something that I can simply just dismiss and say,
17:27
Oh, well, that would never happen, because I think it very well could be happening. Now, the news with COVID actually isn't all bad.
17:38
And some other COVID news here, I wanted to mention, there was a great piece that I saw from the state of Washington.
17:45
Here's the headline. It says, well, I hope I'm pronouncing this right. Washougal students protest state's mask mandates.
17:53
Freedom fighters of Washougal go viral on Twitter, say they continue to miss school until state changes public health rules.
18:00
And it was very impressive. I don't have the I don't believe I have access to that.
18:06
I thought that I saved it. But I probably should have saved a link. And I didn't. I always hate when
18:11
I do that when I miss something like that. I have to go back and find it. But anyway, the article here, and this is from apparently a local, a local newspaper, it talks about the students at that school.
18:24
And when you watch on on Twitter, when you watch the the address and the the speaker at the time was was this fellow here with the the baseball cap on in the foreground.
18:34
He had some really good things to say. And I think this must be him here.
18:40
I'm going to go ahead and read this. This is just I'm going to quote this paragraph, quote, we are just trying to gain back our rights as citizens.
18:48
Because Tyler's told his peers gathered a fishback stadium on Monday, January 31. The teachers in the end are just doing their jobs.
18:56
The mandates don't come from them. They come from the state. Now what we're hoping is that they kick us out.
19:02
This sounds bad, but we're hoping that they kick us out because they have to report the attendance to the state.
19:08
And if the state sees a day when 100 or so I don't even know how many kids are absent, they're going to start asking questions.
19:15
They can get me in trouble, they can suspend me, I don't care. We're done with the masks. And obviously all of you are too.
19:24
Now that's awesome. You know, I mentioned last week, one of the great frustrations I'd have is seeing in the local high school here, they have a mask mandate in the school district.
19:34
You know, I see the school buses go by and all these elementary school kids, they've all got their masks on. I see the high school students walking to high school, sometimes in the morning, and they've all got their masks on before well before they're in school.
19:47
And then I see them walking home and they still have their masks on in the afternoon, well after they're out of school.
19:54
And I get frustrated with that. And I said to myself, you know, where's the teenage rebellion when you actually need it? You know, you always hear about teenage rebellion.
20:02
And of course, when we talk about teenage rebellion, it's usually getting themselves involved in something bad.
20:07
But this is a case where these young people, these high school students stood up for what was right.
20:14
And they did it in a very impressive way. You know, it was civil disobedience, it was peaceful civil disobedience is what they were doing.
20:24
And they said, we're sick of masks, we're done with these things. And of course, they're right about that.
20:29
But for whatever reason, the state, I don't know, state board of education or who it is that that's pushing these things is requiring it, the still requiring mask of all these students.
20:42
I said, Amen, when I saw this, I was, I was so happy to see high school students standing up and saying enough is enough.
20:52
And yes, they are fighting for their rights. And I completely agree with them. And I wish them all the best success, that they that they have the impact that they want to have, and that they get those mask requirements dropped.
21:08
Now there's another, let's see, here's another story here, I wanted to just mention this brief, I'm kind of rolling through these things somewhat quickly, because, well, the
21:16
I had so many articles this week, I hardly even knew what to where to start in some ways, it just seems like they come in like a flood.
21:23
In fact, I'm finding new things, even as I'm going through and, and, and writing out my script today,
21:29
I'm finding new stories. And I go, I got to include that in there. So here's one that I wanted to mention, I think it was gonna, well, no,
21:35
I guess this is this was from Monday. So it wasn't available last week. But here's the headline, lockdowns had little or no impact on COVID -19 deaths, new study shows.
21:44
This is from the Washington Times. And it says this lockdowns in the US and Europe had little or no impact in reducing deaths from COVID -19.
21:52
According, excuse me, according to a new analysis by researchers at Johns Hopkins University. Lockdowns during the early phase of the pandemic in 2020, reduced
22:02
COVID -19 mortality by about 0 .2%. So the broad review of multiple scientific studies.
22:10
And they continue here, we find no evidence that lockdowns, school closures, border closures, and limiting gatherings have had a noticeable effect on COVID -19 mortality, the researchers wrote.
22:21
But it continues, but the research paper said lockdowns did have a quote, did have quote, devastating effects, end quote, on the economy and contributing to numerous social ills.
22:34
And here's the research as they continue, quote, they have contributed to reducing economic activity, raising unemployment, reducing schooling, causing political unrest, contributing to domestic violence, and undermining liberal democracy.
22:48
The report said, such a standard benefit cost calculation leads to a strong conclusion, lockdown should be rejected out of hand as a pandemic policy instrument.
22:59
The paper concluded, end quote. And of course, I'm not surprised that they would find that, that's exactly what
23:05
I would expect. We've talked about this in some prior podcasts, but it bears continually mentioning, and that is that the
23:13
Bible does not support lockdowns in any way, shape, or form. And you can see this if you go into Leviticus and you look at the law in dealing with leprosy.
23:28
You know, there was no provision to lock down all of Israel to stop the spread. Yeah, there was nothing where Moses went out and said, oh, you know, we've got to, we need 15 days to flatten the curve, that leprosy is just getting out of hand.
23:44
No, there was nothing like that. The principle in the Bible is that you quarantine sick people, you do not quarantine healthy people.
23:55
You know, if somebody had leprosy, he showed himself to the priest, the priest verified, okay, yes, this person is a leper, now that person would then be quarantined.
24:06
But there was no general lockdown of all Israel, and this has always been the way that the medical community has dealt with epidemics.
24:16
If you have, you know, typhoid, if you have various outbreaks of various things, you segregate people who are sick, you know, you put them in a sanitarium, and everybody else goes about their business.
24:33
So, I mean, there is a biblical argument for quarantines, but you quarantine sick people, you do not lock down healthy people, and lockdown is the same thing as quarantining them.
24:46
And you look at all of the devastating effects, and I think this article does a good job,
24:52
John Hopkins researchers do a very good job of pointing out all of the deleterious effects of lockdowns.
24:59
There's one thing they didn't mention specifically, and that is churches. I mean, what did this do to people's spiritual health?
25:07
What did it do to the relationship with Christ? What did it do to the churches? How much did it weaken churches? I saw an estimate, and this goes back a couple years when they first started these lockdowns.
25:17
There are some people saying that 20 or 30 percent of churches could close down as a result of the pandemic because of all the lockdowns, because people couldn't come, you know, attendance was down, giving was down, all this other stuff.
25:28
Now, I don't know if that has panned out or not. Maybe somebody has those numbers. I haven't seen any, but it certainly wasn't good for the churches.
25:38
Now, there were some churches that actually were heroic in standing up against these lockdowns, and I've mentioned certainly
25:46
John MacArthur's church, Grace Community Church. Now, again, John MacArthur has some problems theologically.
25:54
He's not, you know, he's had some issues, but in this particular area, he was absolutely right.
26:02
He was absolutely right. They stayed open. They never mashed up. They fought.
26:09
They had, I don't know, fines levied against the church, huge, you know, millions of dollars in fines for doing this, and they ultimately ended up winning in court, and I really do think that in this particular area,
26:24
John MacArthur showed Christians how to stand up against tyranny. You know, the
26:29
Lord said, you know, it's the Lord's day when we gather as a congregation to meet, to worship
26:34
Him, to sing praises to Him, to hear the Word preached, to have fellowship, and you have the government comes and says, well, you can't do that, and if you sing
26:43
Amazing Grace, you're killing Grandma. I mean, what a bunch of hooey. I mean, that flies directly in the face of the
26:51
Word of God, and I think this is something that as Christians, you know, you know, look, most of us like to obey the law, right?
27:01
I mean, I think we all, as Christians, we don't want to be out there breaking the law, and maybe it's sometimes a little bit hard for people to think, okay, you know,
27:11
I've always obeyed and done, you know, what the mayor, what the governor, what the police tell me to do.
27:17
Now, all of a sudden, I find myself just going about my normal business and life, and all of a sudden, I'm a lawbreaker.
27:23
Yeah, I want to go worship on the Lord's Day on a Sunday morning, and the mayor's telling me
27:28
I can't do that, and I'm a criminal, and somehow I'm violating the law if I do these things, and it can be intimidating, but, you know, as Christians, you know, we must obey
27:41
God rather than men, so I was proud of the way that Grace Community Church handled that the immoral, unchristian pandemic orders were being handed down by the mayor, by the governor, whoever it was that was in control of all that, and God did justify them by keeping them together, by apparently the church attendance grew, and they won their case, you know, and I have to think that that was,
28:20
I was certainly glad to see that. I was encouraged by that, so let's go on here.
28:30
The next story I had here, oh, there was a story, and this came back in, this was back in early
28:38
January, and it had a headline here. It said, Indiana life insurance CEO says death are up 40 percent among people ages 18 to 64, and I saw that, and I thought, my goodness, you know, that's such an outrageous increase that,
28:52
I mean, surely either that can't be right, or there has to be some additional corroboration from other sources in this, and when you read through the particular article,
29:03
I'll just, it's a fairly short article. I'll read some of it here. The head of Indianapolis -based insurance company
29:09
One America said that the death rate is up a stunning 40 percent from pre -pandemic levels among working age people.
29:15
We are seeing right now the highest death rates we have seen in the history of this business, not just in One America.
29:21
The company's CEO Scott Davidson said during an online news conference this week, the data is consistent across every player in that business, and I think
29:30
I did mention this particular article a few weeks ago, and one of the things that really jumped out of me, of course, is the fact that he says it's not just at One America, and One America is a real company, and I think
29:40
I mentioned this a few weeks ago. I actually interviewed for a job there, and I know people that work there at One America, so this is a real company, and it's a big company.
29:49
It's a very well -established company, been around since, you know, well over 100 years, going back in the 19th century they were founded, so they've been around a while.
29:57
It says, in fact, they've been there since 1877. It says right here in the article. It's a hundred billion dollar insurance company, so when he comes out, and the
30:08
CEO is saying this kind of thing, it gets your attention. That's a story that has come out here in the subsequent weeks.
30:17
Here's one. This is published on January 13th. It's got a headline that says, Life insurers adopt pandemic risk models after claims jump, and this is an article.
30:28
It's from Reuters. It's out of London, and says this, a coronavirus pandemic which lasts five years, another pandemic in a decade, and ever more transmissible variants are among the scenarios life insurers are predicting after COVID -19 claims jump more than expected in 2021.
30:46
The global life insurance industry was hit with the reported claims due to COVID -19 of 5 .5 billion in the first nine months of 2021, versus 3 .5
30:56
billion for the whole of 2020, according to insurance broker Howden in a report on January 4th, while the industry had expected lower payouts due to the rollout of the vaccine.
31:07
So let's go back and just talk about that briefly. So in the first nine months of 2021, so this is
31:14
January 1st through the end of September, the global life insurance paid out 5 .5
31:21
billion dollars in claims. The prior year in 2020, for the full year, for the full 12 months, they paid out 3 .5
31:32
billion. So I guess apparently the fourth quarter numbers from 2021 are not yet ready, but I would imagine we would be getting those probably sometime here in February.
31:41
It's gonna be very interesting to see what the final number for 2021 is. It's probably going to be, you know, it's reasonable to say it's probably going to be twice that of 2020.
31:54
I wouldn't be surprised if you get to a figure of 7 billion, maybe even more than that. And of course, what they note here, and I think this is very important, it says while the industry, so you have this explosion in claims, but it says here, while the industry had expected lower payouts due to the rollout of the vaccines.
32:15
Well, so they really got whacked here, because not only did they not get lower payouts, they got higher payouts.
32:23
I mean, we've heard this whole time, oh the vaccine, the vaccine, the vaccine, the vaccine. It's going to save everybody.
32:28
It's going to save everything. Everything's going to be wonderful if we all just get the vaccine. And if you don't all get the vaccine, well, it's a pandemic of the unvaccinated.
32:36
And our patience is wearing thin, you know, said our, our Biden tyrant up there in Washington a few months ago.
32:44
What a horrible man. You know, he's, he's right there with Justin Trudeau in terms of his officiousness and his arrogance and his out of touchness, if that's a word.
33:02
So that was another article. And then there was a third article that I found. In fact, this just came out.
33:09
This was, you know, this was just today here. Yeah, it's, it has the date of Saturday, February the 5th, 2022.
33:17
And the headline is Long Funeral Homes, Short Life Insurers, Ex -BlackRock
33:22
Fund Manager Discovers Disturbing Trends in Mortality. Now, this is from Zero Hedge.
33:27
Now, Zero Hedge is principally a financial website. They publish a lot of financial news. So maybe you're wondering about that title a little bit, where it says
33:35
Long Funeral Homes, Short Life Insurers. Well, that's, that's borrowed from financial terminology.
33:40
For instance, if you think a stock at a company is going to go up, you, you go long.
33:46
In other words, you buy the stock and hoping that you're, you're profit from the rise in the, the, the value of that stock over time.
33:53
On the other hand, if you think the, a company is, business is declining, and you think the stock price is going to fall, you can do what's called a short sell.
34:03
And when you sell, sell a stock short, what you do is you actually profit when the price of that stock goes down.
34:12
So if you, you've got a business that you think is not doing very well, well, you don't want to, you don't want to go long that stock because the stock is probably going to go down.
34:19
So if you think that, if you think the business isn't going to do well, and you want to profit by trying to profit from the decline, you sell it short.
34:29
So what he's saying is here is, is this particular analyst with, or ex -analyst with BlackRock, he's saying,
34:36
I think the funeral home business is, is on, is going to rise, is doing better. It's, it's in a, in an uptrend.
34:42
And I think the life insurance insurers, the life insurance business is in a downtrend because of all the payouts that they have.
34:50
You know, the funeral homes are going up because lots more people are dying than what we would expect them to, to die.
34:56
And these life insurers are, as a result, are having to pay out a lot more claims. And just read through this briefly.
35:07
Four weeks ago, one American insurance company CEO, Scott Davidson. So it's referring back to that first story we talked about.
35:14
Four weeks ago, one American insurance company CEO, Scott Davidson, revealed that they had witnessed the highest death rates in the history of this business, not just at one
35:21
America with a jump of over 40 % over what they were pre -pandemic. Interestingly, Davidson noted that the majority of deaths are not classified as due to COVID -19.
35:35
And here's a tweet by this Edward Dowd. He's the analyst, the ex -BlackRock fund manager,
35:40
I should say. And he says this, so a CEO in his own words, they are mandating vaccines in the workplace and raising premiums in lower vaccinated counties because they're mistakenly guessing here initially.
35:52
The premiums will change to higher vaccinated areas as time moves on, is my guess. He missed the plot.
35:59
So that, that CEO, that Scott Davidson with One America, he's actually pro -vaccine.
36:05
And in fact, they have mandated vaccines for everybody who works at One America. So this guy, even though he's looking at this data, he's not reading the data correctly.
36:21
And the story continues. The implication to many was clear that the COVID -19 vaccine is linked to the excess mortality and months of vaccine injury reports were now spilling over to actuarial data, which is beginning to show among other things, that younger working age people began dying in greater numbers as vaccine mandates hit for disease, which primarily kills older non -working age individuals.
36:47
The counter argument often presented without evidence is that the increase is due to people who postponed elective surgeries and other medical treatments during the pandemic.
36:56
So what some people are coming back and saying, well, yeah, there's, there's all these people though that are dying because they're dying of cancer or other untreated things because of all the lockdowns.
37:06
Well, I have no doubt that there are people out there who have died because they didn't have cancers or other things that were diagnosed because they couldn't get to the hospital because of all the lockdowns.
37:18
I'm sure that that has gone on, but what you're seeing here is this is occurring in younger people.
37:24
That's the surge into death is actually in the younger people. So these are people that are probably aren't going to be prone to dying from those types of diseases.
37:38
And it continues here. Ex -BlackRock fund manager, Ed Dowd, is in the former camp. That is, Ed Dowd believes that it's the vaccines that are killing people and has spent the last month analyzing breadcrumbs associated with a rise in excess mortality versus pre -pandemic levels.
37:53
Given that we're now in the middle of earning season, there's some pretty big crumbs rolling out of the insurance and funeral services industries, which are beginning to paint a disturbing picture.
38:02
A few key observations, mortality worsened in 2021 versus 2020 despite widespread vaccinations, or maybe because of them.
38:11
It is probably, of course, that's what Ed Dowd believes. That's what I believe. And it continues here. A spike in mortality among younger working age individuals coincided with vaccine mandates.
38:21
The spike in younger deaths peaked in the third quarter of 2021 when
38:27
COVID deaths were extremely low, but rising into the end of September. So there's more there, but that kind of gives you a flavor of that particular article.
38:40
And then here's the last piece. And I was going to talk about this last week, but I guess
38:45
I got sidetracked. I didn't get around to it. But this is an article that just came through tonight that built on, that I guess actually just kind of rehashes some of the story that was out last week.
39:00
And there's a headline here. It says, this medical data from the U .S. Department of Defense DMED database is explosive.
39:08
Mainstream media has been ordered to ignore it. The DMED data exposed by attorney
39:14
Tom Rents and Senator Johnson is a smoking gun. General Austin should order all military docs to speak the truth, but he isn't.
39:21
Why not? This is by Steve Kirsch. Steve Kirsch has a Substack newsletter. He's done a lot of good work on COVID as well.
39:29
You may want to subscribe to his newsletter. He's got a paid version where you get everything, but he's also got a free version that he usually puts out a few posts a week that are free, and they're well worth reading.
39:41
This is quite a good piece here. And this is what he says. He says, on February 1st, 2022,
39:47
U .S. Senator Ron Johnson sent a letter to Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin on February 1st, highlighting the dramatic rise in adverse events reported in the
39:55
Defense Medical Epidemiology Database, that's the DMED database, after the vaccines were rolled out to the military.
40:03
If the vaccines are truly safe and effective, these increases are difficult to explain. And here's the letter.
40:12
This is a PDF of the letter that Senator Ron Johnson from Wisconsin, this is coming from a senator.
40:20
Okay. So, I mean, this isn't just some hack. I mean, Ron Johnson has actually been very, very good. He's been one of the best senators in really dogging this
40:29
COVID thing. He's also done some other good work instances like things such as immigration. I think he's one of the best senators in the
40:38
Senate. He's a Republican from Wisconsin. And here's what he writes here.
40:44
I'm not going to read the whole letter. But what he does do is he bullet points out some of the increases.
40:52
And this is what he says. There are also increases in registered diagnoses in 2021 for the following medical conditions.
40:58
Hypertension, up 2 ,181%. Diseases of the nervous system, 1 ,048 % increase.
41:07
Malignant neoplasms of esophagus, 894 % increase. Multiple sclerosis, 680 % increase.
41:15
Malignant neoplasms of digestive organs, 624 % increase. Guillain -Barre syndrome, 551 % increase.
41:23
Breast cancer, 487 % increase. Demyelinating, 487 % increase.
41:29
I had to look up what demyelinating was. And what that is, is it's a condition, the neurons in your brain, there's like this myelin coat, coating on them, that I guess helps with neurotransmissions.
41:46
And when that demyelinating is when that coating is stripped off. And apparently,
41:54
I mean, if this number is true here, it's very possible that the vaccine is attacking this myelin sheath on people's neurons in their brain.
42:07
And I can't imagine that that would be a good thing. I've heard some people talk about, for instance, brain fog and the like.
42:16
And I don't know if that's a source of that. It could be something, you know, it could cause even more serious problems. But that's not a good thing.
42:24
Malignant neoplasms of thyroid and other endocrine glands, 474 % increase.
42:30
Female infertility, 472 % increase. Pulmonary embolism, 468 % increase.
42:36
Migraines, 452 % increase. Ovarian dysfunction, 437 % increase.
42:42
Testicular cancer, 369 % increase. Tachycardia, that's a very fast heartbeat, is 302 % increase.
42:52
Now, there was also an article that was put out, and this is an article, it's by Dr. Robert W.
42:58
Malone. He's someone who's credited with being one of, or maybe the primary inventor of the mRNA technology.
43:06
And he's come out and been very much opposed to the use of mandatory vaccines.
43:13
And of course, he was famously interviewed by Joe Rogan a few weeks ago, and that's one of the things that got everybody all up in arms at Joe Rogan.
43:21
But this guy has tremendous credentials, and he has been very involved in vaccine development, in this sort of mRNA gene therapy kind of treatments.
43:36
And he actually talks about this very report from the Defense Medical Epidemiological Database, that DMED database.
43:44
He talks about it in this article, and he puts some cautions around it, because he says this data is kind of raw, and there can be things that corrupt the data, et cetera, et cetera.
43:53
But the data is so... I mean, the increase in 2021 over the prior five years is just tremendous.
44:07
And it's kind of hard to believe that all of that increase is just noise or bad data.
44:16
I mean, that's basically his conclusion. And the other thing too about it is that the data that you're getting out of the military database, and the medical database from the military is considered to be...
44:27
I've heard some people describe it as the gold standard of medical databases, because they track everything, they're very disciplined about it.
44:37
And so it's considered to be very high quality data. But the other thing about this that I think is pretty disturbing is that it trends in the same direction as all the other data that we see.
44:55
It fits in very well, fits in perfectly with the kinds of information we're getting out of the insurance companies.
45:03
It all points in the same direction, that these vaccines are killing people. And here's another one.
45:13
This is another one by Steve Kersh. This just came out this evening as I was getting the script here together.
45:20
It's got a headline, cancer is coming back with a vengeance is very common after the COVID vax.
45:27
And here he says, if I had a dollar for every person who's related a story about a friend whose cancer was in remission before the
45:33
COVID jabs, then became uncontrollable shortly after the jab, I could retire. And here again, he refers to the
45:40
DMED database. It shows the rate of cancer is up three times after the COVID vaccines rolled out.
45:47
And talking with Ryan Cole about this, he believes it's primarily due to accelerating existing cancers. Once people already know they have, or recent cancers that people never realized were there, rather than creating new cases of cancer.
46:04
And let's see this one fellow here. I guess these are a couple of emails that he received.
46:11
I'll just read this. I watched the second opinion was wondering if you had found any information on something we talked about.
46:16
The topic I'm interested in is the untranslated human genes added to the mRNA vaccines that are being discussed as possibly adversely affecting how the immune system goes after cancer cells in order to reduce the inflammatory response of the vaccine.
46:31
I've seen several articles published with case studies of specific patients who had a massive progression of their cancer post -vaccine.
46:38
And I know two people personally who have had a cancer that's pretty serious. I was talking to my doc yesterday and she said one of her patients was diagnosed on Monday and dead by Thursday last week.
46:49
She had no previous cancer. And Steve Kirsch concludes this.
46:55
He says, so if you've recently been vaccinated and your previously under control cancer is now out of control, the cause is that safe and effective vaccine you took.
47:04
Well, this is a really disturbing thing. And you know, when I first heard about these vaccines, and again,
47:10
I'm not coming at this as someone who is a medical professional in any way, but when you hear about gene therapy, you know, that it goes in and it supposedly only affects your
47:21
RNA. And I thought to myself, you know, I just don't like the sound of any of that.
47:27
You know, we know that it hasn't been very thoroughly tested. And the idea that you're going to go in and do something that's going to affect my
47:39
RNA, how do we know that's not going to affect DNA? How do we know it's not either going to cause cancer or cause cancers that are already existing to accelerate?
47:48
Those are the first things that came into my mind. And again, I'm not saying I don't, I'm not coming at that as a scientist, as somebody who has knowledge in this particular area.
47:57
But I think that's a legitimate concern. And unfortunately, it seems to be proving out.
48:06
Or there's at least some indication that that's the case. We'll have to wait and see if more information comes up.
48:12
But I don't like the initial results. They're very disturbing. Now I have a few odds and ends
48:19
I just wanted to touch base on real quick. Let's see how we're doing on time. Well, we're getting on to 50 minutes, probably ought to close this out pretty quickly.
48:25
But we can go through these. This is a story from Breitbart. Biden's newest reparations plan.
48:30
So this isn't COVID related. This is just some odds and ends. Biden's newest reparations plan, pay off Trump era border crossers with amnesty.
48:37
You may have heard a few months ago, they were going to give everybody who was caught and separated from his family at the border under Donald Trump, they were going to give them $450 ,000 a piece.
48:51
Well, I guess that didn't go through. But now I suppose the Biden regime wants to, instead of giving them, showering them with $450 ,000, they want to just give them
49:01
American citizenship. They just want to amnesty them. So I mean, again, part of this is they want to flood the country with Democrats.
49:11
And I think they want to get this done as soon as possible. It's why you have some of these municipalities such as New York and some other places that are allowing non -citizens to vote because they're trying to destroy the integrity of our elections.
49:28
And of course, this would be a perfect way to do that. You just take all these people who are illegally in the country, you say, okay, you're all legal, you're all citizens.
49:35
Now you can go out and vote Democrat. And that's exactly what this is. I mean, they're destroying the value, they're destroying any distinction given by American citizenship.
49:47
They're just giving the country away. I mean, it's absolutely disgusting what this man talking about Joe Biden is doing.
49:56
Let's go on here to another one. This is another one from Breitbart. Interesting headline here. Jesuit Cardinal Calls for Change in Church Teaching on Homosexuality.
50:04
When I saw this first, I think I came across this on Twitter. And somebody's comment on that was,
50:11
Jesuits gonna Jesuit. If you follow Alex Berenson at all, he's coined this saying, he's the one that writes a lot on COVID.
50:19
He said, virus gonna virus. You know, that a virus is going to do what a virus is going to do is basically the idea behind that.
50:26
And this guy just, he kind of paraphrased and he says, Jesuits gonna Jesuit. You know, that is Jesuits are going to do what
50:31
Jesuits are going to do. And that is continually subvert things. And you know, here we have this
50:38
Jesuit Cardinal, he calls for change in church teaching on homosexuality. And read through this a little bit says it's from Rome, it says,
50:47
Jesuit Cardinal Jean -Claude Hollerich told Catholic News Agency Tuesday that the
50:53
Catholic Church should change its teaching on homosexuality. Cardinal Hollerich, the Archbishop of Luxembourg and President of the
51:00
EU Bishops Commission, so he's a big shot, said that Catholic teaching on the sinfulness of homosexual relations is mistaken and needs to be updated.
51:10
I believe that the sociological scientific foundation of this teaching is no longer correct, Hollerich said, are calling for a fundamental revision of the teaching.
51:20
The Catholic Church teaches the same sex attraction is objectively disordered. Okay, so, you know, it's not just him there,
51:31
I've noticed this with a lot of Jesuits. Of course, Pope Francis has given some support to same sex marriages, same sex, yeah, same sex weddings, marriages.
51:43
There's a guy, Martin is his last name, I can't think of his first name right now, he's an
51:49
American, he's a Jesuit, pretty prominent guy, but his last name is Martin.
51:54
He's out there pushing for same sex marriage as well, for changing what the
52:02
Catholic Church teaches about homosexuality. And I think this is going to happen.
52:09
I mean, it sure looks like it. I mean, if these Jesuits get their way, and they seem to be in a position where they're getting their way on pretty much everything.
52:19
Here's another story. And I wanted to just touch on this somewhat briefly, too, because I think it's important.
52:24
It says, federal judge blocks enforcement of Texas anti BDS law. Now BDS stands for boycott, disinvest, sanction.
52:33
And what has happened is that in a lot of states, not just Texas, but in a lot of states, there are laws that say that if you boycott, disinvest, sanction
52:44
Israel, just Israel, not any other nation, just Israel, that you cannot work for the state, you cannot receive contracts from the state.
52:55
And it's been consistently found, so far anyway, as a violation of the
53:01
First Amendment, which it is. And let's just read a little bit of the story here. It says, a federal judge on Friday blocked a
53:07
Texas law barring government entities from doing business with contractors that participated in boycott, disinvestment, and sanctions activity from being enforced against a
53:16
Palestinian -American contractor, saying that the law infringed on the contractor's First Amendment rights.
53:22
Houston -based A &R Engineering and Testing, which is owned by Palestinian -American Razmi Hassouna, in October filed a lawsuit against the anti -boycott law, arguing that the anti -boycott law was unconstitutional according to Axios.
53:38
The speech contemplated by Razmi's company may make some individuals, especially those who identify with Israel, uncomfortable, anxious, or even angry.
53:47
U .S. District Court Judge Andrew Hannan wrote in his ruling, nevertheless, speech, even speech that upsets other segments of the population, is protected by the
53:56
First Amendment unless it escalates into violence and misconduct, he continued. And of course, the judge is absolutely right about that.
54:04
One of the real blind spots
54:10
I think a lot of evangelical Christians have is
54:15
Israel. In their mind, Israel can do no wrong. But what we see here, and it's not just in Texas, you can see this in many other states,
54:25
I believe there's even a similar law here in Ohio, for example, that if you speak out against Israel, if you criticize
54:35
Israel, if you engage in boycotting or sanctioning or disinvesting in Israel or advocating that people do that, you can suffer a loss of a job.
54:46
There was, I think there was a teacher in a Texas school district that sued because she was going to lose her job because they wanted her to sign some kind of a, not a waiver, but some kind of an official document saying that she would not engage in these activities.
55:03
And she refused to sign, she lost her job, and then she sued and got it back. But I mean, one of the things that you see is that the
55:10
Israel lobby in the United States consistently attacks the First Amendment of the Constitution.
55:17
And they need to be rebuked for that. And shame on these governors, and I think it was Greg Abbott was the one that signed it in law, shame on him for doing that.
55:29
He deserves to be criticized for that. And the people who push for those sorts of things, and the politicians who back them, who sign them, who support them, they need to be rebuked.
55:40
This is really dangerous stuff, and it can't be allowed to stand. And let's see here, there was one other thing
55:49
I wanted to mention here. And this was related to the
55:54
Roman church state. Oh goodness. Oh yeah, here we go. It was a tweet that was put out on February 3rd.
56:03
This is from Bill Malugin, he's with Fox News. And he has this video that he tweeted out, and it's this interview with this nun, her name is
56:13
Norma Pimentel. And she is the the executive director of Catholic Charities of the
56:18
Rio Grande Valley. And in this particular, I'm not going to play the video, but what she says is she explains that Catholic Charities of the
56:25
Rio Grande Valley is getting reimbursed with taxpayer dollars when they go out and they buy plane tickets or bus tickets for illegal aliens who've, you know, all these people flooding across their border, they're buying bus tickets and plane tickets to fly these people or bus them someplace else in the country.
56:43
And they're getting reimbursed, they're probably getting reimbursed at a profit. I wouldn't be surprised. You know,
56:49
Catholic Charities is a racket. It's an anti -American racket. And much in the activity they engage in is treasonous.
56:57
But especially, maybe most and especially Catholic Charities of the Rio Grande Valley. Because of where they're located.
57:04
I mean, this is the Catholic Charities that's in charge of a pretty big swath of the US -Mexico border.
57:12
Maybe they cover all of that. I don't know. But I know that they are significantly involved in just about all of this stuff going on.
57:18
And they do everything in their power to import as many illegal aliens into this country as possible.
57:24
They're one of the primary facilitators of this. And this person, this Norma Pimentel, has done a yeoman's job at swamping the
57:35
United States with illegal immigrants. She was one a few months ago, and this came out in the fall of last year of 2021, that there were all these people that were being put up in hotels in one city in Texas that had
57:52
COVID. You know, all these migrants are coming across the border. And it was
57:58
Catholic Charities who was putting them up. And when she was confronted by this by a news reporter, and they asked her, how many of these migrants are
58:07
COVID positive? Her response was, I've been advised not to answer that question. Or something to that effect.
58:13
That's maybe not an exact quote. But she had been advised not to talk about that particular subject.
58:20
So here you are, you're going to not only flood the country with migrants, you're going to flood the country with sick people, and maybe cause
58:28
Americans to get sick that otherwise wouldn't be. But I mean, Catholic Charities doesn't care about the well -being of Americans.
58:35
They don't care about them all. They don't even care about the well -being of the migrants. Because there are, being a migrant is a very dangerous thing.
58:43
And they encourage that. And these migrants, many of whom are injured, some of whom are killed or have terrible things done to them on the journey.
58:53
Well, part of the blame falls with Catholic Charities of the Rio Grande Valley, because they encourage this stuff. And part of that falls on Norma Pimentel.
59:07
So let's see what else we have here. I guess what I wanted to do, just in closing, this is a lot of stuff, and I'm sorry for throwing a lot of things at you.
59:15
But as Christians, we're getting ready for the Lord's Day tomorrow, or I guess maybe later today.
59:23
It's about 1245 in the morning. But we think about what the
59:29
Apostle Paul wrote to the Corinthians. He says, now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of his knowledge in every place.
59:40
So it's God who leads us to triumph in Christ. And as Christians, we need to be optimists.
59:48
Or maybe not, optimist isn't the right word. But we can't be discouraged.
59:54
You and I have a job to do. I think it's a real honor in a lot of ways to live at the time we do, because right now here in the formerly free, formerly
01:00:05
Christian West, we have seen the rise of some really truly terrible people into positions of power.
01:00:16
And maybe one of the things that, and I wouldn't even say maybe, I think one of the jobs the
01:00:22
Lord has laid upon, certainly I feel this, and I think all of us in one way or another have this job, is to push back on the evil.
01:00:30
To refute the evil. To refute, rebuke, reprove people, whether it's presidents, whether it's prime ministers, whether it's senators, whether it's bureaucrats.
01:00:44
We need to reprove them for their attacks on liberty.
01:00:50
We need to reprove them for their attacks on justice. We need to reprove them for their arrogance, for being out of touch, for being high -handed in the way they deal with people, for their lawlessness.
01:01:05
These things we need to reprove. We need to rebuke, we need to point them out, and we need to point people to a better way in Christ.
01:01:15
That's the only way we're going to be able to overcome this, and I don't know what's going to happen with all of these things. I don't know how all this is going to work out, but I do know that as Christians, you and I are charged to fight the good fight of faith, and to fight it in Christ.
01:01:33
And remember that we wrestle not against flesh and blood. That's another famous passage that Paul, where Paul talked about the
01:01:41
Christian soldier. We wrestle not against flesh and blood. Ultimately, our enemies aren't people like Joe Biden or Justin Trudeau, as bad as they are.
01:01:51
It's the spiritual forces of wickedness that stand behind them. What you and I are experiencing now, this is spiritual warfare.
01:02:00
This is what spiritual warfare looks like. I think maybe a lot of people might not expect that, but what we're seeing, what's going on, the kinds of mindsets, the kinds of ideas that are being put forth by people in very high places is evil.
01:02:17
What they're doing is they call good evil and evil good, just like what Isaiah said. They put light for darkness and darkness for light, and we need to point that out.
01:02:27
You and I have that job, and I love doing it. I think it's a wonderful opportunity.
01:02:33
I love being in the fight. I hope you love being in the fight, and I need to commit to praying more for all of us as Christians, to learn how to stand, have the courage to stand, and to really find joy in doing that.
01:02:47
I love doing this program. I love being able to go out and write things, and I hope that maybe
01:02:54
I communicate a little bit of that to you, too, because I know that the words that we speak, if we speak, if we believe the
01:03:04
Scriptures, we apply them correctly, those are not useless words. It honors God.
01:03:10
It edifies our fellow believer, and perhaps even
01:03:15
God can use those words to bring people to Christ. So don't lose hope.
01:03:21
Don't lose heart. Don't be afraid. Don't be deceived. Stand strong and fight like men.
01:03:28
That's what we need to do. Well, that's all for this week. Thanks so much for listening. I really appreciate that.
