You're listening to Radio Looks. I'm your host Steve Matthews. Thanks for joining me for episode 106 and The title of this episode is happy insurrection day. That's that's insurrection. We'll put that in in some air quotes there for you.
Yeah, you know I had this I thought the holidays were over, you know, we had Christmas we had we had New Year's and I thought well, you know, that's pretty much it for holidays. But I forgot totally that January 6 is now, you know, it's kind of like a combination of 9-eleven and Pearl Harbor and the Civil War and July 4th.
I mean it is like the most important holiday In the entire universe. Apparently now it's it's insurrection day. And and so if you you didn't know about that, well, I wish you all happy insurrection day.
Of course, I'm being a bit silly about that. I don't think that there was any insurrection on On January 6 to 2021, I think that they had a riot. I think they had a riot that got Well, let's say it had some encouragement from official sources.
That's something that I've I've always Held I've held that since since I saw it take place I don't think that it looked right to me for a number of reasons and There were a lot of people even at the time when that took place.
I remember the next day I was watching Ron Paul Daniel McAdams the Ron Paul Liberty Report in both of them commented on that, too. You know, they they were of the opinion that that you were looking at at some kind of a setup.
And they weren't real sure about everything. But of course information has come out over the last after the last few years about Insurrection about the so-called insurrection. In fact, I was just watching a it was a video it was on X was a Tucker Carlson video where he was interviewing a fellow and Let's see if I can find that here.
Yeah, it's it's episode 61. In fact, it was something that was just put out.
Today.
January the 6th, so if you follow Tucker Carlson on an X and you really should he does have a good feed he's got a interview out there with a What's it's with a Member of Congress. I I can't tell his name from from just looking at it here I forget the gentleman's name, but he's a congressman from Louisiana it's a very interesting interview and and one of the things when when you go through that interview, there's a place at one point where This congressman he's interviewing Oh the guy the the FBI director and his name's escaping me right Christopher Wray.
He's interviewing Christopher Wray Christopher Wray in Congress and he asked me he says can you tell me, you know, were there any don't remember the exact question, but it was something to the effect of were there any agents who were were acting who were posing as Trump supporters in the crowd and.
And Christopher Wray's comment was some kind of very evasive sort of thing. Well, you know I can't talk about that in in public this kind of thing and and the congressman responded to him kind of cut him off and said The answer should be no the answer should be no and in that that that was a Outstanding comment by that congressman.
That's exactly right. The answer should be no it should be an unequivocal No, and and if Christopher Wray has to hem and haw and dance around and and say well, you know I can't reveal this net that tells you everything you need to know right there.
Yeah, there were. Yeah, there were you know, you think of There's another guy that was involved and there were a number of tapes of this individual videos I should say ray Epps and that's a name maybe if you follow the j6 the January 6th Committee and all the commentary and prosecutions or persecutions that have taken place over the past three years.
There's this guy ray Epps who is very clearly on tape and video several times Encouraging people to go into the Capitol saying hey the capitals this way. There's one video of him I think it was the night before is on January the 5th of 2021 and he's out.
It's at night. It's outside and he's got this big group of people around him. He's standing up and he's saying tomorrow We need to go into the Capitol and and in a lot of people in the crowd. These are Trump supporters.
These are people had MAGA hats on this kind of thing and a lot of people were saying You know fed fed fed fed fed, you know, they were pointing at him and saying this so there were a lot of people in Washington DC for that demonstration who were well aware that Of possible setups of possible I guess what's the word entrapment?
I think Vivek Ravis Ravis Swami's been going around this last week I think he's been using the the term entrapment and I think that that's a good term to use I think I think that certainly was what was going on.
You know, these people were encouraged to engage in illegal or Behavior and then they were and in some cases they didn't do anything illegal but but they you know trumped up these charges against them and Have thrown them in jail and substantially damaged or maybe ruined their lives.
Because they were there in Washington DC on the on the 6th and they're still hunting people down as far as I am aware so yeah, that has been a Very dangerous thing and then of course Joe Biden goes out.
It was just yesterday he gave this speech was about a half an hour long speech and you know, and Trump's an insurrectionist and he implied he was a Nazi and in on and on like this and.
My.
Opinion of this has always been that this was something that was done as a setup. You know the Donald Trump had requested That they bring in some extra National Guard some extra Security for the for the rally, but that could only be done Through the Speaker of the House who was Nancy Pelosi at the time and I think they also had to work with the the mayor's office and No, man, Nancy Pelosi declined the extra security and and I think the reason why is because there was a a plot to create a a an event.
That they could then point to and say, you know, not only is Donald Trump dangerous but also his supporters are dangerous and we can go after them because they're. They're they're insurrectionist, etc.
And and that's what they're doing. In a way I have to almost congratulate the Democrats and the deep staters for what they did. It was actually a very brilliant sort of political judo move you know, they You know in judo what you do is you use your your opponent's momentum and weight against him and that's really what they did.
You know, they they used a lot of anger of people who were in my opinion justifiably upset. Believing that the election had been rigged. I do believe it was rigged and They drew them into Washington and they they created an event they were able to create an event and.
The.
And then use that not only to go after the people who were there but also to intimidate Those people who were not, you know and to use this as a political platform and then Joe Biden get up and say well He's demanded if you know, I'm defending our democracy, you know I always any any time you hear somebody use the the turn of phrase our democracy I mean, you know that these people are establishment.
You know that they are Deep staters, I mean, you know that these are people who don't have your best interest at heart and of course They're all the Democrats that do this and as my dad pointed out to me as we talked I mean, of course, you know, they like to use the term our democracy because that goes with Democrat.
They certainly wouldn't want to talk about our Republic which is actually what it it is. This is a Republic I guess it would be too much to remind people too much of the Republicans. So they like to talk about our democracy, even though it's not a democracy.
I mean you think about the The the Pledge of Allegiance, right, you know, it's to the Republic for which it stands, you know. It's not to the democracy for which it stands. He pledged allegiance to the flag and to the Republic for which it stands or as some people would say the Republic of Richard Stanz.
Yeah, it's it's the Republic of Richard Stanz. It's not the democracy of Richard Stanz and Yeah, that's so I mean people when they talk about our democracy, I mean, they're not really being straightforward with you I mean, they're lying to you just just in using that term or at least they're there.
Maybe they're confused. Maybe we could say that either not necessarily lying. Although some of them I think are.
But.
At the very least I think there's some people that are very confused. This was not it's not a democracy has never been a democracy and It we don't want it to be a democracy. Democracy is basically mob rule.
That's what that is. We have a constitutional Republic. And that's a very different thing from a democracy. So yeah, so there was this, you know, Joe Biden gave this big long speech At it was in Valley Forge no less.
I thought that was interesting. He was at Valley Forge at a very Patriotic venue. I've been there myself Valley Forge. It's just outside of Philadelphia. And of course, that's where George Washington and his army wintered.
It was a very tough winter there and going by memory here, but I think it was that I was at the winter of 1777 and That that was a tough time for the American Revolution things didn't look things did not look good things actually look pretty pretty bleak there, but You know, they were able to Soldier on and survive and and go on to win the when the Revolutionary War even though it would take a few years.
But Joe Biden was using that that particular venue as a as an opportunity to To attack To attack Liberty, you know, but he tries to posit himself as a champion of Liberty. He's not a champion of Liberty.
It's a little bit difficult to sit and listen to somebody like Joe Biden go on and on when at the same time he is deliberately and treasonously destroying our Republic. Through mass illegal immigration.
And flooding the the country literally with millions upon millions of people and that process no shows. Shows no sign of letting up. And in fact, it's accelerating. It's not only is it getting better.
It's accelerating. We're gonna talk Some about that as well. Here I hear this evening. Hi, at least Lord willing. That's that's my plan. So anyway, happy insurrection day, so to speak I guess one thing all here.
I I did look up if you go on the White House website, you can find a copy of Biden speech. It's a transcript of his speech and let's see. He goes through here. Trump's claimed the 2020 election never could stand up in court.
Trump lost 60 court cases 60 Trump lost the Republican controlled states. Trump lost before Trump appointed judge. Yeah, you know there were. I'm not really. You know, I think the courts really really did not do their job during that that that fall.
In fact the Supreme Court really I think took a dive. They took a knee when when they really needed to stand up because that was. There was a lawsuit that was brought by several states and that lawsuit Made a lot of sense.
I mean, I I'm not a constitutional attorney. But I could read through the the case that they presented. I could look at the Constitution and you know the states that did that and I know that that Texas was one of them and there were a few other states that had joined together to bring a case to the Supreme Court and their case was this if you Read the Constitution the Constitution says that it's the state legislatures that are in charge of Setting up the election process in each state.
Well, there were a few states and I believe Pennsylvania was one of them where you had a judge you had the courts. Take over and say no you you have to do certain things. In terms of your election process for the 2020 presidential election.
I think some of those things involved mail-in ballots. I would I don't have all the references here in front of me, but the courts were involved. It wasn't the legislature the Pennsylvania State Legislature.
It was the courts telling the legislature what they had to do and these states said well, you know this is a violation of the Constitution and We are we we're going to challenge the election process in these states.
Well, they brought it to the Supreme Court and I remember was on a Friday evening. Remember the exact date I think of some time in December is on it was on a Friday evening. The Supreme Court made an announcement they're not going to review the case.
They rejected the to even hear it and that was the end of the matter and I really do think that that was the best chance.
That.
Patriots had.
To.
To actually challenge the election results and Yet that was thrown out by the court. You know, it was the John Roberts Supreme Court and I think it's also interesting too that you know, there was the The legal challenge and this is what the Trump people wanted.
They wanted they wanted Mike Pence not to certify the election, but to kick it back to the states and You know, there are a lot of people saying well, this was just ridiculous. Well apparently it had more merit than some people wanted you to believe because I Think that once Congress was seated in after in January of 2021 They actually made some some some legal changes to make sure that nobody could do that in the future so apparently that was a a Legal pathway that some people thought was open to the to to Donald Trump But they tended to poopoo it However, I I did I recall seeing something.
I think it was a video where they were talking to Oh Can't think of the guy's name right now, he was a CNN commentator. He's a lawyer Van Jones That's who it is. Van Jones. Van Jones was actually saying it was a interview with Van Jones.
He's a big Democrat certainly no fan of Donald Trump, but he was even essentially admitting that that that was a legal route, you know that the the Mike Pence could have Refused to certify the election and sent it back to the states now that's Of course that's not what happened and I think it's interesting too and this is one of the things that that's worth mentioning is that in the Congressional testimony that was supposed to take place on January 6 2021.
There were some Congress I think Ted Cruz was one of them and I think there were some others who were supposed to Read into the congressional record some of their objections to the way the election was conducted but that never took place because the quote insurrection happened and When the insurrection happened, well, you know everybody, you know Went hiding went into hiding and then when they they came back in the evening Everybody was so exhausted and shaken up that they just said oh, well, we're just gonna vote to certify the election and go home so I think that's interesting too that the.
So-called insurrection. Prevented some of the the testimony being read into the congressional record. Yeah, and and the thing is this whole myth of an insurrection, I mean there were it's it's propagated everywhere.
I mean, there was an article in my local paper the Cincinnati Enquirer that was calling it an insurrection. I mean, they're just using that that language. Of course there was no no nobody had a gun. There were no Armed people up there trying to take over the government or anything like that.
I think that there were people who got out of hand. There are certainly I think people that committed some act some committed acts of vandalism some committed acts of violence. I certainly don't condone that sort of thing.
There are some people that did some things that were foolish maybe even dangerous and And things that were illegal and for those people that they did those things, you know I mean, I I think they should be appropriately charged but the from what I can tell the vast majority of the people that have been arrested and Prosecuted and thrown in jail and many of them are being held as political prisoners in You know, essentially it's the the DC version of Gitmo.
Most of those people were guilty of nothing but showing up. There was a guy in fact, he was associated with with Alex Jones Owen Schroer they had video of him. He never went into Capitol. In fact, he was going around outside of the Capitol telling people don't go into the Capitol don't go into the Capitol and And he ended up still getting tossed in jail, and I think he spent About a month.
I want to say in solitary confinement. He committed no illegal acts. He did nothing that was I think in any any reasonable person could say was illegal. He did not stir up violence he himself did not act violently.
In fact, he encouraged people not to go into the Capitol and he I'm still getting tossed in the clink and of course Ray Epps, you know the guy who actually has been captured on video urging people to go into the Capitol and to Apparently to engage in in riotous types of acts.
Nobody went after him and in fact, you know the the Democrats during that whole time that The the they had the j6 committee the little kangaroo court you know the the Democrats didn't we want to even want to discuss Ray Epps they didn't want to bring him up and So, I mean, you know that and he was a guy more than anybody else who was doing the doing his best his level best to stir up To stir up a riot and it's very interesting that nobody was interested in going after him.
But they did throw in jail a guy who was telling people not to go into the Capitol, you know, I I remember When I was a kid this it goes back to the 1970s. There was a famous case where There was that automaker John DeLorean, of course, you know the famous DeLorean cars, you know, I could back to the future.
You know Marty's got the got the DeLorean with the flux capacitor in it. Well this you know, John DeLorean was I think he had been a former Chrysler executive and he founded his own car company named after himself and they put out these DeLoreans and.
They.
He got into some legal trouble. I think he was either something having to do with drugs. Maybe it's cocaine or something like this and he was convicted and his conviction was overturned finally. Because they said he he was entrapped, you know, you know the words that.
These.
Officers, I don't know if they may have even been FBI. I'm going by memory here so, you know, I could be be wrong about some of the particulars, but they apparently Entrapped him they enticed him into doing Doing these illegal acts.
And his conviction was was was in fact overturned and it certainly seems to me that That was what was going on on January 6. I mean you had these officers waving people into the Capitol flinging open the doors.
You know, come on y 'all come on in and and you know. You see these these pictures of these people these supposed insurrectionist and they're there. They're even walking through the rotunda, you know in this this aisle this this rope rope aisle you know how they have the the the rope set up and and it just kind of guides people through the the The rotunda they weren't just walking around but a lot of them they were actually going through this this This rope aisle set up.
I mean, these are not people there to do violence. Yeah, and those people did nothing wrong. You know, you might say they were unwise for doing that me. I think I think they got sucked in to To an operation.
It was unwise, but I don't think they did anything illegal.
And.
It's.
Really disturbing to see the way that our government framed and continues to frame a lot of patriotic Americans for supposed insurrection when there was none. So anyway, that's about all I have to say there about insurrection day I guess some other items in the news this week.
It's been interesting the. You probably heard the the president of Harvard stepped down Claudine Gray and There were a lot of people now that have been cheering this on and there are a lot of people Conservatives who have said wow, this is a great victory against diversity equity and inclusion.
You know DEI or D IE as I prefer to call it. I like to call it diversity inclusion and equity and that spells die and that's actually really the. I Think that's the the message behind it all. They just want you to go die you know, at least if you're you're not one of the preferred groups of the the people that push D IE.
Yeah, so. You know, there's a lot of people who are out there kind of saying oh, you know. They got rid of this person, you know. And you know, she's a kind of a D IE Queen and and it's good that they got rid of her.
But I I'm not so sure that it's it's the victory that for free speech or or equity real equity, I don't mean the kind of equity that the D IE people say but but for for free speech or for for fairness.
Equal treatment before the law these kinds of things. No, I I don't think that it is.
I.
Don't think first of all, you know, the the reason is that that's put forward why she was let go is because because of many charges of Plagiarism, so, you know, you're president of Harvard and you're being charged and and I didn't follow it super closely but you know, there are a lot of charges and apparently they were credible charges and Of course, it's kind of hard to be president of any university let alone a university as prestigious as Harvard University and Be be a plagiarist, I mean in at least in the world of academia, there's no more serious sin than plagiarism of course plagiarism is simply where you Misrepresent, you know you you represent the work of others as your own you essentially you're you're stealing their stuff.
You're going and saying oh, you know that these you know, you write these passages and and yeah. You've copied them from people but but you don't give credit now, you know, probably all of us at the very least.
You know have written papers when we were in high school, right and and you're supposed to give citations. You know, they've got these these programs now. I understand, of course, you know with AI and and all of this stuff you know students like to try to cheat and I understand professors have programs in fact that that they will put these These papers through that that students have have written and they're plagiarism filters and apparently they can pick out stuff that that has been put into a student paper, but but not properly cited and So, I mean, you know that that's a big deal, I mean as a student you can't do it so, I mean if you're a student and you can't plagiarize, I mean, it's kind of hard to have a.
A.
President of a university who's also plagiarizing. My guess is that probably her plagiarism was probably known long before she ever became Harvard president. That would be my my supposition. I think that probably was known but she was an affirmative action hire.
She was a black woman and They brought her on because she was a black woman. I think that's also pretty evident and yet You know, and of course it's been been represented to the public is oh well she was fired because of of plagiarism well, I Don't think that was the case.
I think that that is a misrepresentation. As I said, I very strongly suspect that those that that plagiarism was known prior to her even being hired. Which I believe was just last year. I think it's been less than a year that she's been in that position if memory serves correctly.
But no that wasn't the reason that that they went after her the reason that they went after her was because she was In the eyes of the the Israel lobby in the eyes of the Jewish lobby. She was insufficiently pro-israel and You know she made She actually got fired not because of anything she did wrong but actually because of some statements that she made that I thought were pretty reasonable and You know the you know, there is this this lobby, you know the Israel lobby out there There are a lot of very powerful Jewish donors to Harvard who didn't like the idea that someone could protest Israel on campus.
Well You know, here's the thing, you know, you may not like what somebody says, but unless they are explicitly saying Things that are immediately threatening, you know saying hey go grab that guy and kill him or something like this.
Or.
Advocating for insurrection. Hey, let's go overthrow the government, you know this kind of thing. Unless somebody's doing something like that. They have a right to speak. They have a right to say those things, you know.
They have a right to say, you know from the river to the sea Palestine will be free. You know, these were the the protesters against Israel. They have a right to say that you know, you know, they're Israel backers.
Jewish students may not like when people say things like that. But not liking what somebody says doesn't mean they don't have a right to say it. Now, of course you can come back and you can say well, yeah.
But Harvard's a private institution and probably you know, Harvard can can govern speech as they want. Well, that's that's true. But you know what Claudine Gray said is that essentially was you know that these students, you know, they they had a right to speech within you know what Harvard is an institution deemed was Was legitimate and and I I think that especially when you're dealing with the university.
That really using as a guide the the First Amendment I think is a pretty good idea. Now, you know, you might say there are things that can cross the line in a private institution. And a private institution does have a right to say, okay, you know, you can't say these kinds of things but what I think is interesting is that you know, the Those people who opposed the Palestine, you know, those who are demonstrating for Palestine and against Israel and they called these three university presidents in before Congress.
So essentially they kind of made it a quasi First Amendment issue by hauling people in front of in front of Congress to testify. This is one of the things about the Israel lobby and and they have done this consistently for years now.
And that is that they attack the attack the First Amendment. These are sometimes are individuals who do this. Sometimes they do it as part of institutions such as the ADL. But they are very hostile to the to the First Amendment.
Ron DeSantis, for example, Ron DeSantis actually flew to Israel so last year and Signed a bill that essentially attacked the First Amendment rights of Floridians. You know and he was standing there and he was surrounded by a number of I think Israel Israeli officials and he's signing this bill and it went into effect in the state of Florida.
Well, I lost a Good deal of respect for for Ron DeSantis when he did that. You know, there is. You know, the the First Amendment does not exist so we can talk about the weather the First Amendment exists so we can discuss.
Ideas it may be ideas and that everybody likes maybe the ideas that are controversial. Here's a comment from someone and and I almost hesitate to read this a little bit because of the individual it comes from not because I think that he's not a.
Competent writer and thinker in in many respects.
He.
Well, let's just say he is his his more his morals are not not particularly good and I don't I don't want to be Endorsing him. His name is Glenn Greenwald. He's he's a lefty in a lot of ways. He's a leftist.
He's a he's a he's a liberal but he It actually does have some very good things to say about about the First Amendment And and I'm just gonna read you a little bit of an article that he has out and I think is actually pretty Pretty much spot-on and this is what he said quote gay gay.
He's talking about Claudine Gray gay gays resignation yesterday came after conservative journalist and activists proved persuasively the gay committed serious plagiarism. But one has to be extremely naive to believe that that was the reason gay was forced to resign and even more naive to believe That this concern about integrity and academic writing was what motivated the campaign against her.
Indeed McGill the pen president was forced out by the very same faction Despite no plagiarism allegations of any kind Now the leader of this campaign the real leader the billionaire hedge fund manager and fanatical Israel supporter Bill Ackman is already targeting Kornbluth.
Kornbluth is the the president of MIT Who like McGill at pan also does not have a plagiarism scandal, but she does have an Israel and anti-semitism scandal end quote so I Think that's a very good point that Glenn Greenwald made that you've got Bill Ackman this billionaire hedge fund manager the forced out Claudine Gray supposedly gay because supposedly because of plagiarism but he's also going after the Forced out the president of pen this McGill And is also going after the president of MIT an individual named Kornbluth neither of whom have Have plagiarism scandals.
So so I mean that's you know The idea that the Claudine gay was was forced out because of plagiarism. I think is silly and naive that that's not the reason She was forced out Bill Ackman is a guy that In some ways, you know, I he made a statement a couple years ago, I thought was actually pretty good he In fact they had to do you may recall the the uproar going on with Oh Kyle Rittenhouse remember Kyle Rittenhouse and Who had shot I?
Guess we killed a couple of individuals who were trying to attack him.
In that.
Riot up there and in Kenosha, Wisconsin, and he also injured somebody else and He was put on trial. I guess he was charged. I believe he was charged with murder and anyway, he was Was was was acquitted he was found innocent of that and and I remember Bill Ackman even said that he and his wife You know after reviewing the videos they looked at and they thought you know, this this young man is is innocent.
You know and so Bill Ackman, I mean he has been I think fair-minded. I mean, he's a I assume he's a big Democrat and a liberal. But he was fair-minded about that and I thought well good for him. I I was pleased to see that but I think that that he has really been over-the-top in this whole issue of student demonstrations at Harvard and and at at other universities they they have Really gone hard after.
He and and some of his associates have really gone hard after some of these students. They've doxed the students. They've threatened to put their names out publicly, you know that you know, you're never gonna hit you're never gonna work.
Again, you know this kind of thing. I mean really very kind of thuggish. Sort of behavior much like a mafia. For these these opinions of the students and I'm not even at this point even trying you notice I haven't even discussed the The ideas that were being expressed by the students because I don't really think that's what's in view here.
The students did not do anything that was in violation of the Second Amendment or First Amendment. Excuse me and in violation of the First Amendment. You may not like what they said, but they do have a right to say that I mean the fact of the matter is I see things hear things all the time that offend me that I don't like to hear but I don't say to someone.
Oh, well, you said something about about Christianity or about Christians or about? You know, you know think of all the abuse that gets dumped on the the heads of white people I mean these DEI people these D IE people these diversity inclusion and equity people.
I mean they can go out and call you a Every name in the book and just say horrible things about you and not only is no does nobody object to it. I mean they actually sit back and you know, they're applauded, you know, it's good job, you know.
In fact, I think sometimes it's a contest see who can denounce Ordinary white Americans the most, you know, and it's it's really an astounding thing to me to To see some of that stuff. I don't think anybody should be thrown in jail about over it.
I don't think anybody should be doxxed over it. I don't like it. I disagree with with the things that they say but it doesn't strike me as that. I have some need to go out and to To persecute people With whom I have disagreements.
Now it will argue with them. I'll push back on it As opportunity presents itself, but I don't think there's I don't think I have a right to go and try to force somebody To lose their job To lose his job over over something like that.
But these people like Bill Ackman and others in his Of his mindset they do believe that and and I think that that is a real threat To our Republic not our democracy, but our Republic. This is a problem.
Let's see. What else? Oh One other thing I did want to talk about here today, too. I don't want to go on too long. It's getting a little bit late and I'm over half an hour already. But there's a very interesting let me see if I can find that here there's a tweet that was put out by Oh Scott Adams, you may know Scott Adams.
He is. He's the guy he used to run the do the comic comic strip Dilbert. Yeah, maybe you're familiar with Dilbert, but he put out a It was a I keep going to call him a tweet it's not a tweet. It's a post they they do they do posts on X now.
I I that still just drives me nuts. I you know, I think a lot of Musk has done some good things with with Twitter. I don't like the rebranding is X and never have. I guess maybe one of these days I'm gonna get used to it, but I still fight against it.
I still want to call it Twitter. It's X. I know I know I know and You don't tweet on X you post on X. I finally figured that out as well, but there is a Post that Scott Adams put out effective as yesterday is January the 5th and is a short short post.
I'll just read it to you here. This is what Scott Adams said quote there is no way an American is in charge of our immigration policies. It's now 100 obvious. The goal is destruction. Whatever is going on here is not coming from inside the house.
That needs to be the working assumption end quote. Well Scott Adams is exactly right. He's exactly 100 right. There's not an American in charge of our immigration policy. That American is not Joe Biden.
That American is not Alejandro Mayorkas. Or any of the other deplorables that Biden has surrounded himself with in our in our government. That's not ultimately who's in charge of this. This is the Vatican's immigration policy.
And this is the thing that I think almost nobody seems to recognize. This is something that's coming from the papal Antichrist. You know, that's that's what you got going here, you know, and this is something I've written about extensively over the past number of years.
I've given a couple of talks on it. I gave a talk on it in 2022. Called your land strangers devoured in your presence. I gave that for the Trinity Foundation on Reformation Day in 2022 this past fall in 2023 I gave another talk on that and it's called the Antichrist illegal alien assault on America and.
And I detailed in there the In both talks some of the the evidence against Rome in the end I just barely even scratched the surface Lord willing here in 2024 at Reformation Day. I would like to give another talk.
Well, we'll see if Tom Judas lets me do that. And Lord willing I'd like to do another talk and it's going to be an analysis of another Roman Catholic document, it's called strangers no longer together on a journey of hope, but I mean Rome has a very well-developed Immigration program that immigration program that immigration Theory is designed to break down destabilize Independent nations and usher in world government.
I mean in Rome has been very open about world government. I mean, I think it's just amazing to me how An organization like Rome can be so open about its its desire for world government. And yet so many of these people that claim they're they're alternate.
You know, they're you know Alternate alternate media, you know the so-called alt media almost nobody ever talks and points out the fact that Rome says. Yeah, you know world government. We love it. We're down with world government.
We totally we think world government's totally awesome. That's that's what antichrist is. He thinks that world government is awesome. And he can't wait to wait to see it come around come about. And he does everything in his power.
I'm talking here about the again when I talk about antichrist specifically, I'm talking about the office of the papacy. I don't mean just an individual Pope. I mean the the whole line of Popes going all the way back.
That was that's the position of that's the the Protestant School of prophetic interpretation also known as historicism. That was also the official position of the Presbyterian Church in the Westminster Confession for over 250 years.
Until they changed that with the 1903 edition of the Westminster Confession of Faith and they removed The language about the Pope being antichrist mannison and son of perdition. That was a huge mistake and I think it's interesting that almost nothing good has happened in Presbyterianism at least American Presbyterianism since they did that and that was 120 121 years ago.
When they when they made that change and it's been downhill ever since you know. Do I think that there's a relationship between those things? Yes, I do. I do indeed.
But yeah, I mean the the Vatican has been very open about about just you know using immigration to to flood nations with the illegal aliens and refugees and even legal Legal immigrants, but I mean it's it's it's the what's that saying?
There's a 500-pound gorilla in the room. You know, it's the this 500-pound gorilla, but nobody wants to talk about it. I mean you can go on on even on on websites that are again, you know alternate Kinds of websites, you know, they're they're not mainstream corporate news websites and in websites that specialize in In immigration issues and they still will not talk about the Rome the the role that the Roman Catholic Church plays in the immigration disaster that's taking place.
Mean this is all being done under a Roman Catholic president. Joe Biden he's not just a Roman Catholic president. He's also a president that has very close Jesuit ties as well. He goes to a Jesuit parish in In Washington DC.
I think it's what Holy Trinity or Trinity. I think it is. That's a Jesuit run parish. Interesting enough Nancy Pelosi also has very close Jesuit ties. And this may also surprise you too. This is something that in fact it it came up in the local paper here.
Just this past week. It's not just Democrats who have Jesuit ties. Vivek Ramaswamy who's kind of become a darling of Of a lot of conservatism mean and and gotten a lot of support. He went to Jesuit high school right here in Cincinnati.
He went to a as a very well-known school in the area called Xavier st. Xavier High School. That is a Jesuit one school and not only did he graduate high school there he currently sits on the board of directors of st. Xavier High School and The reason this was actually in the paper over the past Last week was because apparently there was a move by some people.
They wanted to they wanted to kick him off the board and the the Xavier High School people said no, no, no. No, we're we're gonna we're gonna keep him on the board. Okay, let me see if I can find I wanted to show I got So busy trying to get some things done here this evening.
I didn't didn't cue that up, but let me see maybe I can. Can find that here? Let's take a look is that that was it was actually a very interesting story. And I say it was right here right here in the local paper.
All right, so, let's see getting a little bit warmer here. I've got so many news clippings that It's kind of overwhelming sometimes I use this this clipper this web clipper, it's called called Evernote.
I think I'd be completely totally lost without it. I'm sure that I couldn't do this show without it. I know that but yeah, here's a yeah, here's the article that I found. Here's a headline. This is from Cincinnati Enquirer.
This is dated January the 4th 2024 and it says chair st Xavier High School won't remove Vivek Ramaswamy from Board of Trustees.
It starts off here quote a Jesuit run private high school in the Cincinnati region won't remove Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy from its Board of Trustees the board's chairman said Wednesday.
Ramaswamy's controversial comments on the campaign trail have prompted some st Xavier High School alumni to call for the school to oust Ramaswamy from its 25 member Board of Trustees and Here's a statement.
Here this is a quote within the article quote. The board acknowledges the sincerity and honest intentions of those urging Mr. Ramaswamy's removal from our Board of Trustees in quote st Xavier High School Board of Trustees chairman Nick Ver said in a statement sent to the Enquirer on Wednesday afternoon.
Well Nick Verna, that's an interesting name too. Now if you're not from Cincinnati, you probably don't know him, but he had been I want to say at one time he was a Cincinnati City Councilman and and he's kind of been active In a lot of local issues over a number of years.
I think he's probably about my age. He's probably in his 50s. So he's kind of a prominent local guy. I Didn't know that he was was on the Xavier Board of Directors. I didn't I apparently I guess he probably went to Xavier to.
And anyway, Nick Ver continues quote. However, we have concluded that any action we initiate beyond having already agreed to his sabbatical could be interpreted as participating in or intervening in a political campaign.
Therefore we will not and have no plans to take any action regarding. Mr Ramaswamy status as a member of the Board of Trustees on sabbatical. So I guess apparently he's on sabbatical.
At the.
Currently Says Ramaswamy graduated from st. Xavier in 2003 as valedictorian. While he remains listed as a member of the st Xavier High School Board of Trustees Ramaswamy has been on sabbatical from the board and has not participated in any board activities since launching his campaign according to Ver a 1977 st. Xavier graduate so.
Yeah, that's that's interesting and I think that's important to keep in mind so I mean, you know, Vivek Ramaswamy He has significant Jesuit connections, and I know a lot of people like Vivek Ramaswamy, I mean, he he's very well.
He's very smart. He's very well-spoken. You know, he's yeah. He says a lot of things that a lot of say conservative patriotic Americans agree with and yeah I mean, I agree. I mean, you know, I've heard him say a number of things.
Yeah, that's that's pretty good point. That's well said I mean just this last week. He was out there talking about January the 6th being a case of entrapment. I think he's right about that. But I have to admit I don't trust him, you know, I you know the You know, it's it's hard not to see that and see okay.
Is this a guy that's being put forward by the Jesuits as a sort of Well, I don't know wolf in sheep's clothing is that the right thing to say in this particular case maybe I think it is Anyway that that concerns me.
And I don't think a lot of people know that so that's why I wanted to at least mention that. Well, I guess I've I've gone on probably long enough here today. So I wanted to say Good maybe that's a good good opportunity to wrap things up.
Thank you very much for listening. It's great to great to be here again this evening, and I I hope you got something out of this This this podcast Is I said Lord willing I really hope that I have an opportunity to come back and do this more regularly here this year.
Especially this being an election year. I think it's really important to To be consistent. I know it wasn't as consistent as I wanted to be last year just because I had some other things going on I had the certification I was working on a work and that was kind of a Big that sucked up a lot of time, but I'm not doing anything like that right now.
So I've got a little bit more time and Lord willing. I I hope to be able to to do more in the way of Podcasting so Lord willing. I will I'll see you again next week. Thanks so much for listening and until that time may the spirit of truth guide you in all truth as you're in study.
