Radio Lux Lucet 122

You're listening to radio looks listen, I'm your host Steve Matthews. Thanks for joining me for episode 122 the title of this episode is

Haitians in Ohio So I hope all of you been having a good week this past week, you know, we actually had

Some some kind of fallish weather today. We didn't even get above 70 today here in the

Cincinnati area It was actually really nice. I went out and I rode did some bike riding again earlier today and you know

The humidity was low. It's just beautiful day to ride It was sunny. It was a little bit on a windy side.

But other than that, it was a very nice day And it's good to to get out and do a little do a little exercise after sitting in front of the computer screen all week

It works. I do like to get outside. I really do and especially on a beautiful day like this

I was very very thankful to the Lord for providing that to me here today And to other people in the area

So I wanted to get into today talking a bit about a story that's gotten a lot of press

You know as if you've watched if you listen to this podcast or read my blog at all over the last several years

I've been talking quite a bit about The issue of immigration. I think it's one of the most crucial issues.

Maybe the most crucial. I don't know facing Not just the United States, but really the entire

Western world. I mean we have a situation where Principally and this is being principally driven by the the

Antichrist Roman Catholic Church state They are trying to flood all Western nations with With with illegal aliens and it does it doesn't even necessarily matter where they come from I mean,

I think the Roman Catholic Church would prefer that the Roman Catholics, but it really doesn't matter anything they can do to break down historic independent nations

And on the old with the ultimate goal in my opinion of Rome folding them into some sort of a world government

By the Pope that's what they want to do. I mean the the Roman Catholic Church has repeatedly

Many many times very clearly called for world government. And this is certainly a way of doing that it's a way of romanizing countries and it's also a way of breaking them down and making them just completely dysfunctional and and you see that all over the place and this

Is really it seems like starting to really hit home here in Ohio where I live

I mean, it's been been that way in some parts of the country for some years now, but the the

Biden regime's Really immigration treason and I think that's the proper way of referring to it is really starting to have an impact here in Ohio and there's been a lot of in from there's been a lot of the news here and this is really the subject the lead story in my

My podcast this week is all the Haitians in Ohio, particularly in Springfield, Ohio which is not that far from where I live and It's funny.

I hadn't heard of this until fairly recently, but this has actually been going on for several years now Springfield, Ohio in in 2020,

I think they said had a population of like 58 ,000 people and now there are between 15 and 20 ,000

Haitians, but just within the last few years have been foisted on the city and It's it's you know residents are begging for help the

City Council doesn't know what to do You know, and I'm not sure how much they may have had something to do with that that occurring or whether this is something

It was strictly being done by you know by the federal government. I Don't know. I don't know a lot of the details about it but I have had a chance to do at least a little bit of research on this and it was interesting here over the the past week or so Just following some of this on X and there's there's actually quite a bit on on X about this and I want to see you know, goodness, you know,

I thought that I had a You know, it's funny. Sometimes I always think I get ready for the show and then

I find out well yeah, maybe I wasn't as ready as I should but there's there's a story there there was a piece on on X recently,

I was it was looked like it was from a feed a Channel from from Springfield itself and one of the people was there and somebody was posting on X and he says well

I would really like to know who it is that that's bringing all of these these

Haitians into into Springfield and I Made a comment.

I commented on the thread I said well, I can't say for sure because I haven't looked into it but you know,

I'm guessing it's it's probably the Roman Catholic Church and You know anytime you see a a massive invasion massive illegal alien invasion or even a legal alien invasion

It really doesn't matter. But anytime you see something like this, I mean, this is not organic

You don't have 20 ,000 Haitians just show up in Springfield, Ohio for no particular reason and And Just doing very little bit of research

I mean there's no question about that that Rome certainly is is involved with with what's going on there in Springfield and What I'd like to do.

Let's take a look here. Let's see if we can do a Story here. This is just one story that I found

This is from the Springfield News Sun. So this is a local Springfield, Ohio Newspaper it's got a headline new

Catholic Charities Center to help cities Haitian population with immigration jobs. Well, yeah I mean, that's that's exactly what

I would expect When the story goes on to say here new spring facility that will provide services including help with immigration status applications

Legal advocacy in case manager will open this year so so I mean the other Roman Catholic Church is gonna bend over backwards to facilitate the invasion of of a

Springfield, Ohio Now, I mean, it's not good for the it's not good for the people of Springfield But of course that doesn't matter what it is is it's good for the

Roman Catholic Church And so they're on that like white on rice And it says located at 448

East High Street will be operated by Catholic Charities of Southwest, Ohio Well, what a big surprise Catholic Charities of Southwest, Ohio now

I've talked a lot on this this blog about Catholic Charities of the Rio Grande Valley and And that is the the chapter of Catholic Charities that as the as the name and it describes it it deals it runs,

I guess centers and what -have -you all along the US Mexico border along the Rio Grande River and And they are one of the chief facilitators of immigration treason in the

United States of America And we've got our own little local chapter here in Southwest, Ohio And they're going to be of course in like fashion

Assisting invasion of the the great state of Ohio my home state with with with Haitians And we're all we're all very happy about this

That's being a little bit sarcastic Let's see here so we can read. Let's see

So Catholic Charities of Southwest, Ohio, which has been providing aid in Springfield for about a year and a half

Well, no doubt about that CEO Terry Stirett said during a Haitian coalition meeting Wednesday He's expecting to be able to begin providing services within a month.

Now. This story is from January 18th, 2024 so it's fairly recent only about eight months ago and It goes on to say the facility will likely be called the

Springfield Empowerment Center That would be potentially that would potentially take the load off some organization

Organizations plates. Well, the only people it's empowering are those who are in league with Antichrist.

It's certainly not empowering Ohioans It's certainly not empowering the good people of Springfield You know what needs to happen in this case is these

Haitians need to be put on a great big old jet airliner and Flown back to Haiti. They do not belong here.

They do not have a right to go on the dole in the United States of America They do not have a right to sit here and cause major disruptions in the city.

That is not equipped to handle them They need to go back to Haiti. I mean, that's what needs to happen and You know some people you know

And when you you say these kinds of things people, you know Particularly the Roman Catholics will try to guilt -trip you to try to lay this big thing on you

Well, you know it says in the Bible. We're supposed to love our neighbors. You know, there was this this in fact, there was a

I Don't know that maybe I don't know if I saved it or not But there was there was a statement by by Pope Francis this past week.

He said it was a grave sin to reject migrants Well, no, it's not It's not a grave sin to reject people who come into your your your country illegally to begin with or even legally and then go

On the dole and expect you to support them There is no obligation on the part of the American people to give one dime of welfare to to any of these

Haitians And and that's that's what's happening there. There are I don't know the full extent of what's going on up there

But I have no doubt based on anything everything that I knew about the the immigration situation in the

United States there are massive subsidies being paid to sustain this this this invasion of Springfield and Let's see here.

Here's another story. And this is a story out of out of Breitbart. This is from July 10th, 2024 So just a couple months ago

Biden floods Ohio town with 20 ,000 Haitian migrants tend to a bedroom And you read through this residents of the west central town of Springfield, Ohio Are demanding that their

City Council do something to stem the tide of the Haitian immigrants that have flooded the city Especially in the aftermath of the death of a child in a school bus accident caused by a migrant driving illegally

Well, that's a huge problem in the United States our accidents that result in injuries and deaths by people who are driving illegally when in the

United States and You know, there's you know, I mean I I think

I've told you about this I I know of a case in particular this has to do with a family member of of a friend of our family's who was t -boned by a car driven by an illegal alien and That particular this particular individual has not been able to work since that time

Yeah, he was severely injured. He didn't die, but he was severely injured and he is

Hobbled by the injuries from that accident to this day and That was again.

That was an accident caused by an illegal alien I mean the proper number of injuries and deaths and auto accidents caused by illegal aliens is zero

Because it shouldn't even be in the country That the article continues here says the town situated just west of the state capital in Columbus has been the target of Haitian immigrants at least since 2014 and the ensuing years some 10 ,000 have moved to the

Rust Belt town But in the last four years alone that population ballooned to more than 20 ,000. The influx is causing serious pressures to mount in the town

Ohio's Republican senator US Senator JD Vance put the blame for the mounting problems squarely on the

Biden administration Which is causing small towns all across the country to suffer just like Springfield. So Springfield is not a unique case

This is just an example And this is Vance a quote say says this self -imposed disaster is crushing the job prospects of our citizens

Yes Yes It is making it more difficult for a higher families to find homes and draining social service programs funded by American taxpayers

People who are here illegally should be sent back to the home country as soon as possible and individuals here in temporary status should not

Expect to stay indefinitely. So Yeah, those are some good statements there You know and and it is a self -imposed disaster,

I mean this entire thing, you know in in soccer I think they call it an own goal You know, that's where you kick the ball into your your team's own goal and score a goal for the other team

Well, well, this is a gigantic own goal But you know, I guess here's the one difference.

No, no soccer player is going to intentionally kick the ball in his own goal That's something that happens by by accident.

This is something has been intentionally done by our government and it's not an oopsie It's not like oh, well, we didn't mean to do that.

We we expected something different No, they totally mean to be doing exactly what they're doing. I mean, this is the whole thing with with replacement migration

This is the whole thing with with irredentism immigration warfare. It's Roman Catholic immigration warfare

It's being conducted by a Roman Catholic president on the people of the United States of America I mean what you're seeing going on right now with with Towns like Springfield being invaded by Haitians.

This is irredentism this is immigration warfare being conducted on the American people and You know as I was saying before, you know, there's a lot of people who try to guilt -trip you into saying well

You can't say this about that way. These people are our human beings and we're to love our fellow man as Christians Well, I I agree that we are we're to love our neighbor as ourselves

That's that's the commandment in the New Testament or in the Bible Well, you know, here's what

I would say to that and that is my fellow American is also my neighbor The residents the rightful residents of Springfield, Ohio are my neighbor.

Those people are my neighbor. They're my neighbors and They are having their lives destroyed

By importing all these people that should not be in the country and those people that should not be here

They need to go home. They need to be sent back They do not have a right to come here. They do not have a right to impose their problems on us

They didn't have a right to impose their costs on us There was one article that that I saw

I couldn't find it here handy for me But I remember one of the things that said it talked about this big influx of Haitians and in employers were ecstatic

I mean, they they were they were just thrilled employers in the area in the Springfield area. They were just ecstatic.

Well Yeah, I mean maybe they were but I mean this illustrates one of the serious problems that they go on it's the idea of With immigration.

It's the idea of sometimes it's expressed this way Privatizing the profits and socializing the costs.

So, you know some of these employers Okay, so you bring these people in from Haiti work in your warehouse or do some other maybe have a manufacturing job

There's a couple of things that happen here for the business there be they're able to bring these people in and hire them at sub -market wages

They're able to hire them at sub You know what at a lower amount than what the market the the job market would actually bear and what happens is all the social

Costs when they get a fob those off on the taxpayer. So what it does is it creates a very focused

Windfall for certain businesses certain industries that employ That type of labor because they can get it much cheaper than what they otherwise could and then all the problems

You know all the you know, the the the medical bills all the housing costs All the social services the

Costs that are imposed on the school district English is second language you know when when these these kids come here and then they they the the law requires that that the local school districts educate these kids then they have to bring in all these teachers that Translate that work with them to teach them

English So I mean, you know, those are additional costs that are imposed not just monetary costs But also in degraded education experience for the students of the parents who are paying the taxes for the school

Not only for their kids, but also for the kids of foreigners Again, who should not be in the

United States? You know and again, you know, who is my neighbor? Well, my neighbors are are the rightful residents of Springfield, Ohio much more so than people from Haiti It's not that I I don't hate

Haitians I don't wish ill upon them, but they have no right to come here and impose their costs on the

American people and The government has no right of no right to bring them in here I mean what the

Biden regime is doing with their activities is treason They're destroying they're deliberately destroying the

United States of America. They know what they're doing. They're doing it intentionally And and this stuff it needs to stop

If they're allowed to get away with this if this type of thing continues to go on We will not have a country with the

United States of America will cease to exist in any real meaningful form Let's see.

What else see here Let's see Here's another this is an article here another one

I found here in Breitbart says illegal immigration in the Rust Belt, Ohio residents say enough is enough after death of 11 year old

Aidan Clark So one of these guys and you know, I mentioned this before, you know These Haitians that came in hit and killed an 11 year old on his first day of school and that was that was last year

See what else we might have here Mmm Here's one.

This is some comments from the mayor of Springfield. It says Springfield is now saturated saturated

Roo, that's the mayor said during a meeting when talk turned to Haitian immigration Asked by a city resident how many more immigrants might be coming into the area and about city interactions with the people who have planned this

Roo responded. We're not interacting with them. We're investigating Roo later added the city investigations are ongoing but he indicated a report would be forthcoming once they're assured that they can do so without compromising any potential legal action

The city formed an immigrant accountability response team in response to community outrage following a fatal accident involving a northwestern school bus

Hit by a minivan driven by an unlicensed Haitian driver Haitian driver the man crossed in front of the bus that then overturned

Resulting in the death of an 11 year old boy and injuries to about two dozen children The drivers currently appealing involuntary manslaughter and fourth -degree felony vehicular homicide convictions

Thousands of Haitians are in Springfield on temporary protected status. Okay temporary protected status

Now this is something else that I've talked about before so see oh, they're not illegal They're here legally temporary protected status is

Is is a giant fraud? Thank you. What I'm gonna do here birth me just a moment when

I categorize something here Yeah, the temporary protected status is one of the biggest frauds going what you know

It's something that sounds good on the surface and my understanding of temporary protected status is it's something like this if say somebody from a foreign countries in the

United States and Something happens in their home country, you know an earthquake or revolution, you know something really devastating

Temporary protected status allows those people to remain in the United States until conditions are such in their home country where they can safely return now the thing that I don't like about temporary protected status is it makes available to the people that are given temporary protected status the entire panoply of of the the

American welfare state and I've talked about this before but it's worth mentioning again.

There's nothing temporary about temporary protected status. You know, there's the saying I've heard it before maybe you have it.

It's something to the effect of there's nothing more permanent than a temporary government program well, there's nothing more permanent certainly than a a temporary government immigration program because During the

Trump administration there was an attempt to send back some to end the temporary protected status of some people from El Salvador And these people from El Salvador and this this was

I think back in 2019 They had been in the United States since either since right around the turn of the century

It's like the late 90s early 2000s that they had had been granted this particular status of temp this temporary protected status because of And I'm gonna you know,

I'm trying to think now I don't know was it was it an earthquake or hurricane I can't remember what but anyway, there's a serious natural disaster that happened 20 years earlier and These people were still in the

United States on temporary protected status and the Roman Catholic Church I know the US Conference of Catholic bishops the trees that treasonous brood of vipers, you know, they were out there

Writing things and saying oh, it's heartbreaking that the Trump administration is gonna send these people back

How could they possibly think about doing this? Well, I mean again temporary protected status these people have been in the

United States for 20 years or about 20 years at this time But apparently that's you know, they still weren't ready to go back

Well, I mean, that's a complete fraud. Of course, they should be sent back. They should be and in fact

I think the whole program should be ended because I mean it's just turned into another excuse to abuse the

American people Yeah, let's see what else we got here so just reading through that other

Breitbart article It's talking about the the kid the the students that were injured or killed on that school bus very sad here's a here's what it's interesting to and Let's see

Yeah, I was trying to find that that statement about the The employers who are ecstatic or I don't know if the word was ecstatic or or Something to that effect though, you know that they were really happy to have this this whole this thing going on Oh, here's something.

Let's Let's take a look at this. There's me just a moment here Go to the source here

Get this thing in a right spot Okay, so here's something from this is actually

Dayton Daily News now again Dayton is is all cut You know, that's kind of Southwest, Ohio So, I mean this is all sort of in the the the southwest corner of the state.

This is a paper from Dayton Dayton that's where the Wright brothers are from in case you didn't know the

Famous duo that had the first well built the first successful airplane flew that back in 1903

Just right up the road from where I live So it yeah, so the headline here is Haitian immigrants in Springfield face complex immigration system and long delays immigrants want to work but have to wait well, let's see here, but you know, it talks about I Think the fellow that was involved in the accident or at least talking about one particular individual here

Now here's a picture I don't know if you can see this or not, I think it shows a Let's see, see the

Reverend John McQuarrie Patrick Joseph and Casey Rollins stand in front of st Bernard Catholic Church in Springfield McQuarrie is pastor of Springfield's Catholic Churches Joseph is an immigrant from Haiti living in Springfield who volunteers with st

Vincent DePaul in Springfield and Rollins is a board president and executive director of st. St.

Francis DePaul So so yeah, I mean this is you know This is you know the Roman Catholic Church doing their utmost To bring people into the country who should not be in the country and make sure they stay here forever and Receive the most massive amount of of welfare benefits possible

That's that's our Roman Catholic Church. And that's that's the kind of work that they do so And they're gonna celebrate diversity which we all know that that's our strength

There's all that we we absolutely know that that that is is the the the the highest value that we have

Well, I think maybe other than transgenderism I think is diversity and Let's see here

It goes on to explain Oh temporary protected statuses and immigration designation available to Haitians and foreign nationals from 15 other countries

That allows them to live and work in the US for up to 18 months. Well, that's a that's not that's not accurate

They could be here now They may have to re -up after every 18 months, but there's almost zero chance of these people ever being sent back

There were 610 634 nationals approved temporary protected status in the US including 6005 in Ohio as of March 31st

There's no pathway to citizenship with temporary protected status and immigrants can be deported once the period of time covered by the authorization ends

Well in in theory, that's the way it is. But in practice, that's not how it works So there's that.

Oh, here's something I did want to show you here. This was a a video This is a video of a a female resident well of Thank you

Stop that for just a moment. Yeah, this is a resident of Springfield and she's talking about the

Just the misery that has been inflicted upon her By the the presence of these

Haitians. So let's just play through this and see what she has to say I live at 426

Northwestern Avenue. Miss Skinner who I'm not trying to put on the spot is my neighbor Just talk to me ma 'am.

Thank you so much and I'm done with what I'm seeing. It is so unsafe in my neighborhood anymore

I have the homeless that we're trying to camp out and I have I Would make concessions with them and I try to help them the best

I can to keep them from trying to Squat on my property So yeah, so she's got got homeless

Haitians squatting on her property. And again, you know, the you know, the these Roman Catholics They will they try to lecture you and tell you, you know, once again, you know that it's a sin to reject migrants that somehow

It's a failure to love one's neighbor as myself where this poor woman and her husband and she talks about that.

She and her husband they are also my neighbor and they are more my neighbor than the

Haitians are and Their lives are being destroyed by the policies of our government They didn't ask for this.

They didn't vote for this And I think that I'm just I feel just a sense of outrage as an

American that my fellow American citizens are being treated like this by our government that we support with our own tax dollars

But it is so unsafe. I have Men that cannot speak English in my front yard screaming at me throwing mattresses in my front yard throwing trash in my front yard

And I can't I look at me. I weigh 95 pounds. I so yeah

So she's being threatened by people and screamed at by people in some foreign language I probably I guess Haitian Creole and by the way, this this woman she's just testimony before the

Springfield City Council And this is something pretty recent now the the tweet itself is dated

September 6 I don't know exactly when this was but I my sense of it is that this is is it's pretty recent and again

She's testimony she's giving her testimony before the Springfield, Ohio City Council and she's a resident of Springfield I couldn't defend myself if I had to my husband is elderly and last night after living in this home for 45 years

He said Noel guess what? It's time to pack up and move. He said we can't do this anymore

He said it's killing both of us mentally. I don't understand what you expect of us as citizens

I mean, I understand they're here under temporary protected status and you're protecting them and I understand that Our city services are overwhelmed and understaffed, but who's protecting us if we're protecting them who's protecting me?

Yeah, that's a great question, isn't it? Yeah with these people here are these Haitians here in a temporary protected status

Who's protecting the residents of Springfield? Well, I can say, you know, the answer unfortunate that is nobody her government

Our government does not care about us as Americans our government wants to inflict this stuff on us the

Roman Catholic the the Antichrist Roman Catholic Church state wants to inflict this stuff on us and then they want to turn around and lecture us if we

Complain about it and say oh, well, you know, you're you're just a bunch of bigots, you know, you're racist You're you're terrible people.

You're selfish. You know, you're immoral. It's a sin I mean, you know the you know, the the Pope wants to tell us this this is all a bunch of garbage.

I Of the the duties of our government To protect the lives and the property of the

American people That's why we have again. That's why we pay taxes, you know, the Apostle Paul talked about that, right?

you know, he said you know that it's you know, the job of the civil magistrate to to attend to the duties of Rewarding the good you're praising the good and and punishing the evil, you know, the the civil authorities do not bear the sword in vain that's the principal role of civil authorities is to make sure that justice is done and This is an utter

Failure and a complete rejection on the part of our government or the federal state and local government to Do its job and in fact, you're doing the exact opposite of what their job is

And it's it's it's infuriating. It is tragic. I Know I feel so bad for the people that have to go through this and this stuff needs to stop

Let's let her continue here and finish out. I want out of this town. I am sorry, please

Give me a reason to stay Thank you. Thank you Well, I mean they're not giving her a reason to stay.

I mean they they they have given no American Citizen of Springfield, Ohio.

Have they given a reason to stay? I mean they showed utter complete contempt for the people there now,

I don't know exactly what the dynamic is between the federal government and the the

Local government or the state government. I don't know. I mean we have a Supposedly Republican governor here in Ohio.

I mean, he's really more of a rhino than anything else I don't know if he has anything to say about this I don't know how much the local city council has either encouraged this or Or not encourage it.

I just I don't know. So I I don't want to affix blame on the On the city council there without knowing really who's responsible for I mean,

I have no doubt I mean the the federal government is is big into this I have no doubt that the

Roman Church state is big into this You know how much the mayor or how much the council members are are involved with that?

I don't know Maybe they don't want this to happen I I did a little bit of reading on the mayor tonight and and my sense of it was

I I He was trying to choose his words carefully, but I think he seems to be concerned about this

So I don't know that he's one of these people that's saying, you know, y 'all come in here. You know, this is great

Yeah, I I don't think that's the case But of course he wants to keep his job and if he says that kind of thing he's gonna lose it

And so so I don't yeah, I'm sure that there's some self -preservation of all

But he you know, he may in all honesty, he may not support that type of thing You know, maybe this is something that's being just foisted on on Springfield by by the federal government.

I Mean one thing that I've I have read, you know, this is in Clark County, Ohio. That is a very red County it's a very very

Republican area and One of the the tactics that the Democrats have used they've tried to flood those kinds of areas with all these these

Illegal or even legal aliens who really shouldn't be in the country with the hopes of keeping them there getting them on a voter rolls

Etc, etc and and eventually getting them to vote for the Democrats Because that's that's of course part of what's going on here

They they want to they want to bring in illegal aliens or legal aliens to me by hook or by crook

It doesn't really matter but they want you to be replaced They want the American people to be replaced and have all these foreigners cast the votes that Americans won't cast

They won't vote for all these crazy social programs. So we're going to import a whole bunch of people who will vote for them and And that is is part of what's going on here

Yeah, that that was a really upsetting video to watch that for me. Oh, here's a another one.

I This isn't necessarily directly related to it but it gives you a sense of the big bucks that are involved the

DHS Department Homeland Security announces millions in funding for NGOs and NGOs a non -governmental organization that's used like a big charity like Catholic Charities for NGOs housing feeding illegals

Catholic Charities USA and it's got this big thing on here and Says the Department of Homeland Security is distributing millions of dollars to nonprofits communities that assist the migrant

Migrants the agency releases despite previous concerns about how some of those funds are being used and and so yeah

It says this includes almost 17 million dollars of the Catholic Charities Archdiocese of San Antonio Which received over 10 million in the previous trench of shelter and service funds released in April.

So That's 17 million plus they received 10 million dollars or that's 27 million dollars.

That's just for the for San Antonio, Texas That's just one city

Catholic Charities gets billions of dollars from the US government every year to assist in the process of invading the

United States with with illegal aliens, there was a There was a podcast that was put out by the

Heritage Foundation here. The Heritage Foundation is one of these Washington based Think -tanks, it's a conservative think -tank and one of the guys on this podcast talking about Catholic Charities He described them as the 800 -pound gorilla

In the whole illegal immigration racket, which is really interesting. You know it

I always That's why I saved the article One of the reasons it is because it's one of the few times you you see something even in kind of like mainstream

Conservatism where they point the finger at the Roman Catholic Church. It's the Roman Catholic Church It is the principal force behind all of this behind this entire illegal immigration

Flood that's taking place in the United States. They are the principal drivers of it They're not the only drivers of it, but they are the biggest they are

They are the principal drivers of this type of thing. They serve the agenda of the Antichrist of the papal Antichrist That's what they do.

That's what Antichrist does. Antichrist loves to kill and destroy and impoverish He doesn't know how to make things better for people doesn't want to make things better for people.

He wants to destroy people Yeah, and and just watching this stuff is is very painful and and you know one of the things

Sometimes people like to argue they like to say well, you know We need to bring in all these people because we need workers.

They need to do the jobs that Americans won't do Well, here's a headline from from zero hedge now zero hedge if you're not familiar with it.

That is a it's like an alternate Website for financial news. They they tend to focus on financially related things

But here's the headline in zero hedge says a great replacement job shock 1 .3 million native -born

Americans just lost their jobs replaced by 635 ,000 immigrants and if you read through the article at the start of the year in many months after we first pointed out that the biggest untold

Story in the US labor market was the great replacement of native -born workers with foreign -born workers

Most of whom we subsequently learned were undocumented immigrants. That is illegal aliens

We asked how it is that the ongoing replacement because that's what it is of u .s Workers is not the biggest political talking point right now considering that since October 2019 native -born workers have lost 1 .4

million jobs over the same period foreign -born workers have gained 3 million jobs. I don't know exactly how they compute this

But this graph here it shows that since 2019 Foreign -born workers have have gained 3 million jobs native -born workers have actually lost

Lost 1 .4 million jobs. So there are fewer Americans working now than there were five years ago in 2019

But there's lots more foreign -born people. So that what that tells you is, you know, we don't need to be importing these people.

I Mean, there are unemployed and underemployed Americans. They could fill these jobs

But companies would rather bring them in because it's cheaper And as I said earlier they can fob the the social costs of all of this stuff off on the

American taxpayer so they can get a windfall, but but you and I get to pay the freight and There are some that argue here that you can have illegal immigration or you can have even more inflation

That's that's what apparently the the argument of the Federal Reserve and I guess the the

Wall Street Journal I think they would I think they're they're making that kind of argument to well inflation comes by money printing

Inflation is actually the increase in the supply of money over and above the the increase in the the economic output of the economy

Inflation is caused by money printing by the Federal Reserve. It's caused by deficit spending by the federal government

You mean one of the things when you read About the economy over the last 50 plus years is that blue -collar

Americans have not had a raise in over 50 years I mean they have been treated horribly by this country now

They're their productivity has gone way way up, but they have not been rewarded for their increased productivity

All of the gains from that increased productivity have gone to to all the big shots

Now I'm not somebody who says oh, well, you know wealthy people shouldn't make money

I mean if somebody honestly comes, you know is able to make money. I have no

Right as a Christian to to covet them or to cover what they have But when you have on the one hand exploding productivity of the workforce and on the other hand

Stagnant wages for over 50 years. There's a problem there there's something going on and one of the things that's going on is this massive importation of Of Aliens both legal legal and illegal.

I mean what they've done is they've massively deindustrialized The United States and sell all these jobs overseas and then the jobs that they couldn't export well

They just import people to take your job. So you so if your factory hasn't been shut down Well, you're gonna still get put out of work because they're gonna import somebody from Haiti or some other third world country to take your job who will work for less than you do and in this is

This is just it's again. It's outrageous. I mean this is this country has been every

Institutionist country has been weaponized against the historic Protestant American nation

And and I think ultimately, you know as as as Protestants, you know, we have to look at ourselves

You know if we have to say how is it that everything's been weaponized against us, you know, maybe some of this is our own fault because our own unbelief

I Mean the Protestant Church has really tanked over the last hundred fifty two hundred years.

It's gone apostate And you know, that's one of the things that always happened in Israel in the

Old Testament, right? I mean when they they deviated from the Word of God and they said, okay, you know, you know, we know

You know Moses gave us this law and we're supposed to do certain things, but we don't want to do that we want to do all the stuff like all the other nations do and and they turn their back on God and they were they they

They're they're spiritual enslavement. They became enslaved to false ideas to The other day to all of the the types of paganism and unbelief that surrounded them in the surrounding nations

They adopted those ideas. They became enslaved spiritually when you become enslaved spiritually You tend to also become enslaved politically and economically and when they had their faith in God when they when they walked in his ways when they they

They they sought his face when they were free. They were free spiritually and they also were free politically and economically

And this is very much the same situation here in the United States I mean ultimately this really isn't a problem with with illegal immigration or legal immigration

It's not a problem with which political parties in the White House The problem the central problem that we have as Americans and I say this especially to my fellow

Protestants is that we have become enslaved spiritually to false ideas to unbelief and Therefore we're also being enslaved politically.

We're also being enslaved economically and we need to repent You need to confess our sins.

We need to have put our faith in Jesus Christ We're saved by faith in Christ alone. And if we're spiritually free, we're also going to tend to be free economically and politically as well

It's not to say bad things can't still happen but this Just continuing downward spiral of the

United States of America. I I do believe that fundamentally it's a matter of unbelief and that's something that needs to be repented of That's something to think about, you know, and that's something of course is as Christians, you know

We need to pray for Reformation in our country. We need to pray for that that God would bring about a

Change in people's hearts to reject the ideas that all the the unbelief that surrounds us everywhere the rejection of God and Causes to come back to his word and to hear his voice and to walk in his ways

That's the only thing that's gonna heal this land. It's the only chance we have and As Christians, I mean, that's something, you know, we you know

There are a lot of reasons why we should go out and we should do it and we should evangelize We should talk to people we should pray for our country.

We should pray for anything We should pray for unsafe family members. There's lots of good reasons to do that.

But certainly, you know one reason It's not the only reason maybe not even the best reason but certainly an important reason is

I don't want to live under tyranny yeah, and if if the the left gets its way if Kamala Harris is installed as As president it's going to be a very dark time for the

United States There's one writer. I follow Paul Craig Roberts talked about that he says if she gets in there and you're gonna end up with tyranny and I think there's a very good chance that that I I agree with him.

I think he's right about that I don't see how that doesn't happen and I don't want to see that happen

So it's really about all I had here for this evening, but that's something to think about and again, yeah You know, it's as Christians as believers, you know, we need to be in prayer for our country

You know the God would turn the hearts of many to himself You know in you and I you know, we have work to do right?

I mean, we we need to be talking about this stuff. We need to be talking about the gospel of justification by faith alone

And you know, that's what you know it was that it was the preaching of the gospel at the time of the Reformation that took that took

Europe out of out of The you know, the the nations of Europe where the Reformation came it brought them out of the darkness of Roman Catholicism It brought them into the light

Of the truth of God's Word and God's Word is still powerful You know, it hasn't changed the same

God as he was 500 years ago. Same word. They that there was around 500 years ago and and you know, this is something that that you and I need to be be aware of you know, the idea that You know, this really is spiritual darkness.

That's fundamentally what the problem is and we need to repent Even as even as believers, you know, we need to constantly be repenting we need to constantly be be seeking

God's face and asking him and going before him

Praying for ourselves for a family for our nation now that we would not fall into the kind of darkness that has characterized so much of Human history, you know, we have the we have the light we have the knowledge we we we have the

Word of God You know, we we don't have an excuse You and I don't have an excuse we can't plead ignorance because we we know these things and If if we reject them

Then it will not go well for us That's all I have to say here today.
