[00:00:01] Good evening. The single biggest [00:00:04] political issue divide in the United [00:00:06] States right now is ICE. Minneapolis is [00:00:10] a disaster tonight. There is widespread [00:00:13] violence, mob violence. There is [00:00:16] political turmoil, chaos really. We're [00:00:19] going to be going live there in a [00:00:20] moment. Nick Sorder who's been covering [00:00:21] all this and shot some amazing video [00:00:23] will speak to one of the pastors of the [00:00:25] church that was invaded by lunatics by [00:00:29] anti-ICE activists. It really is the [00:00:31] mobilizing force on the left and it's [00:00:33] the focus of much of the right and it's [00:00:36] about a lot of different things. On the [00:00:38] surface it's about of course who has [00:00:40] authority over the borders. Does federal [00:00:43] authority mean anything? It's about law [00:00:45] enforcement. To what extent can you [00:00:48] pursue criminals in your own country? [00:00:51] It's of course about immigration. [00:00:54] ICE standing for immigration and customs [00:00:56] enforcement of course, but big picture [00:01:00] it's about something much bigger. And [00:01:01] that's why it's become such a passionate [00:01:04] divide. The battle over ICE is really [00:01:09] a battle over demographic change in the [00:01:12] United States. Who gets to live here? [00:01:14] Which is always and everywhere the [00:01:16] fundamental question in any country. Who [00:01:19] lives there? Who are these people? What [00:01:21] are they like? And in our country, that [00:01:25] question has basically not been [00:01:27] addressed out loud for the past 60 [00:01:30] years, even as the population of the [00:01:32] United States has changed dramatically. [00:01:35] And that's one of the reasons the battle [00:01:38] over ICE and its jurisdiction and what [00:01:40] to do with all the people living in the [00:01:42] United States illegally has become so [00:01:44] passionate and so fraught because no one [00:01:46] is saying out loud what exactly this is [00:01:49] about. And so as a first step to making [00:01:52] things better, it would help to see [00:01:55] things clearly. So let's talk about what [00:01:58] exactly is going on in the United States [00:02:01] and why it's led to the battles in say [00:02:03] Minneapolis. What's happening in the [00:02:04] United States is a wholesale change of [00:02:07] who lives here, total demographic [00:02:11] change. Now, some have called this [00:02:13] replacement. [00:02:15] And the question is, is it really [00:02:16] replacement? So, we thought we would [00:02:18] look it up. If you were someone [00:02:21] following along at home trying to figure [00:02:22] out, you know, what is everyone so mad [00:02:24] about? [00:02:26] What is this great replacement theory? [00:02:28] You might go, as almost everybody does, [00:02:30] first to Google and just type in great [00:02:31] replacement theory. AI would come up [00:02:33] with the following result. This is hot [00:02:36] off Google AI. Here's what it says. If [00:02:38] you look up great replacement theory on [00:02:40] Google, we're quoting the Grace [00:02:43] Replacement theory is a debunked, [00:02:45] meaning untrue, far-right, meaning Nazi, [00:02:47] white nationalist, meaning racist, [00:02:49] conspiracy, claiming that white [00:02:52] populations, particularly in Europe and [00:02:53] the US, are being deliberately replaced [00:02:55] by non-white immigrants and minorities, [00:02:58] often orchestrated by replaces, leading [00:03:00] to demographic shifts and cultural [00:03:02] erosion, fueling extremist violence and [00:03:04] anti-immigrant sentiment. That's one [00:03:06] sentence. by the way a run-on sentence, [00:03:08] but it is AI and it's quite a sentence [00:03:11] and it tells you point blank this is not [00:03:13] true. Anyone who believes in it is [00:03:16] deranged and is [00:03:19] stoking violence simply by believing in [00:03:21] it. And it goes on to explain how this [00:03:23] works. The theory quote posits that mass [00:03:26] migration, declining white birth rates, [00:03:29] and political agendas by elites are [00:03:31] intentionally replacing white [00:03:33] populations. It has inspired numerous [00:03:36] acts of mass murder violence with [00:03:39] perpetrators often citing this theory. [00:03:42] Research shows that endorsers of the [00:03:44] great replacement theory often hold [00:03:46] antisocial traits, authoritarian views, [00:03:49] and negative attitudes toward minorities [00:03:52] and immigrants. [00:03:54] In other words, once again, believing [00:03:57] that the population of this or any other [00:03:59] country is being manipulated by people [00:04:01] in power and the people who were born [00:04:03] here are being replaced by people who [00:04:04] weren't believing that [00:04:07] is not only wrong. It's misinformation. [00:04:10] It's been debunked. [00:04:12] It's also dangerous. You can kill people [00:04:15] by believing that. Well, how does that [00:04:18] work exactly? It doesn't sound like a [00:04:22] cool objective analysis of the theory of [00:04:25] replacement. It sounds instead like well [00:04:28] a political screed, but maybe even more [00:04:30] than that. It sounds like an article of [00:04:32] religious faith. You're not allowed to [00:04:35] believe this. Only bad people believe [00:04:38] it. It's apostasy. [00:04:40] It could lead to death believing that. [00:04:43] And that seemed a little emotional for [00:04:45] us. [00:04:47] So we decided instead to consult the [00:04:49] science because obviously we believe the [00:04:52] science and the science as always begins [00:04:55] with numbers, things that are [00:04:56] quantifiable, that are measurable. And [00:04:58] one of the ways we know the truth about [00:05:00] who lives here is through the census [00:05:03] taken every 10 years. It's in the [00:05:04] constitution. And that provides us not [00:05:07] precise numbers, but a pretty accurate [00:05:11] general picture most of the time and [00:05:13] certainly overtime of who lives here. [00:05:16] So, let's start because it's a easy and [00:05:18] obvious place to start. The beginning of [00:05:20] the post-war era, peak America, 1950, [00:05:23] the first post-war census. And I think [00:05:26] everyone would agree, whether they're [00:05:28] right or wrong, that this is a period [00:05:30] remembered as the best time in America, [00:05:32] 1950. [00:05:34] United States is an an industrial power. [00:05:37] It's the leader of the West, if not [00:05:39] really the world. [00:05:42] And America domestically is pretty [00:05:44] harmonious, thriving, happy. [00:05:49] Let's take a look at who lived in [00:05:50] America in 1950. And let's do that by [00:05:54] taking a closer look at the population [00:05:56] of the top six cities, which at the time [00:05:58] were, and this tells you a lot right [00:06:00] here. New York was number one, Chicago [00:06:04] was number two, Philadelphia was number [00:06:05] three, Los Angeles number four, Detroit [00:06:09] number five, Baltimore number six. Kind [00:06:12] of hard to imagine, but in 1950, not [00:06:14] that long ago, within living memory, [00:06:15] those were the numbers. So, here's what [00:06:16] they were. The biggest city in the [00:06:18] United States then and now was New York [00:06:20] City. New York City in 1950 was 90% [00:06:24] white. 71 million New Yorkers out of 7.9 [00:06:28] million were white. Chicago in 1950 was [00:06:31] 86% white. Philadelphia over 80%. Los [00:06:35] Angeles 94% white. 94% white. That's [00:06:39] almost an ethnost state actually at that [00:06:40] point. Detroit, Detroit, Michigan, home [00:06:44] of Ford, GM, and Chrysler, 84% white. [00:06:48] Baltimore, [00:06:50] steel and shipping capital of the [00:06:51] Mid-Atlantic, [00:06:53] 76% white. That was 1950. You know, [00:06:56] people who were alive in 1950. Maybe you [00:06:58] were. Here are the numbers today. [00:07:01] Baltimore 27% white. Detroit about 10% [00:07:06] white, down from 84. Los Angeles again [00:07:09] 94% about 37% white. Now Philadelphia [00:07:13] 36%. Chicago less than 30%. [00:07:17] And New York City, again the biggest [00:07:20] city in the country, is now around 30% [00:07:23] white, down from 90% in 1950. [00:07:27] So you think to yourself, well maybe [00:07:28] these cities have just shrunk and a lot [00:07:30] of them have. Baltimore, Detroit, [00:07:32] Philadelphia, Chicago, all much smaller [00:07:33] than they were. What's interesting is [00:07:35] that New York is bigger than it was. But [00:07:37] a million people more live in New York [00:07:39] than they did in 1950. And yet the [00:07:42] proportion of whites has declined [00:07:45] well from 90% to 30. But so is the [00:07:48] absolute number. [00:07:50] New York has lost about 4 million white [00:07:53] people even as it gained a million [00:07:56] people in population. [00:07:58] What is that? Now, in some of these [00:08:00] cities, [00:08:01] there are economic reasons for this, [00:08:03] right? A lot of African-Americans moved [00:08:05] up from the south to work at the auto [00:08:07] plants in Detroit, to work at the [00:08:10] harbor, at the shipyards, the steel [00:08:12] plant in Baltimore, etc., etc., etc., [00:08:16] but not all of it. And in New York City, [00:08:20] almost all the demographic change is the [00:08:22] result of immigration. And that began in [00:08:26] 1965, which is definitely within living [00:08:28] memory of a lot of people watching this [00:08:30] right now. [00:08:32] So that's another and very long way of [00:08:34] saying the great replacement is not only [00:08:37] real, it's the realest thing there is [00:08:40] and it's provably true. So, why would [00:08:43] they go out of their way to tell you [00:08:45] it's a debunked far-right racist [00:08:48] conspiracy theory believed in only by [00:08:51] antisocial lunatics who commit mass [00:08:53] murder? [00:08:55] Well, probably because it's true. And in [00:08:57] telling you that, whoever wrote that, [00:09:01] you have to ask yourself, who would [00:09:02] write that and why? And it's not just, [00:09:03] of course, in AI and Google or [00:09:05] Wikipedia. It's everywhere. There's [00:09:07] almost nobody who admits that that's [00:09:09] true, even though it's provably true. [00:09:10] It's indisputably true. [00:09:13] In fact, there's a list on Wikipedia of [00:09:15] all the people who believe in it, the [00:09:17] thought criminals who believe this could [00:09:18] possibly be true. Apparently, people who [00:09:21] don't have access to census numbers [00:09:25] don't believe it's true. But, you know, [00:09:26] the 19 figures in American public life [00:09:28] who do have access to the census numbers [00:09:30] somehow believe this is true. But [00:09:32] they're telling you it's not. But what [00:09:34] they're leaving out of course is that [00:09:38] demographic change is a constant through [00:09:41] history and it is almost always mass [00:09:45] demographic change. Turnover replacement [00:09:48] is almost always the result of human [00:09:52] choice. [00:09:54] Populations change because leaders [00:09:57] decide they should change. Population [00:10:00] demographics. The question of who lives [00:10:01] within the borders of a country is not [00:10:03] only a concern of leaders of [00:10:06] governments. It is the main concern. [00:10:09] It's the main thing they think about. So [00:10:11] the rest of us imagine that the [00:10:13] government concerns itself with [00:10:14] collecting taxes, [00:10:17] schools, national defense, and those are [00:10:20] all concerns. But we are thinking way [00:10:22] too small. The people who run countries [00:10:25] who map out the future of civilizations [00:10:28] think in much larger terms than the rest [00:10:30] of us. This is not a guess, by the way. [00:10:32] This is true. They think in terms of who [00:10:35] lives here, what do they like? How many [00:10:37] of them are there? And there are plenty [00:10:40] of levers that they can move to change [00:10:43] those numbers. Obvious not so obvious. [00:10:45] War being the most obvious, killing [00:10:47] people, unleashing pandemics on them, [00:10:49] obvious. less obvious. Encouraging [00:10:53] different ways of living, encouraging [00:10:54] birth control or abortion, scrambling [00:10:57] the genders, [00:10:58] encouraging women to work outside the [00:11:01] home has one of the largest effects on [00:11:04] demographics, of course, because women [00:11:06] who work during childbearing years are [00:11:08] much less likely to have lots of [00:11:09] children. In fact, many of them won't [00:11:10] have any children. And that has proven [00:11:12] true over time across the world. We're [00:11:15] excited to tell you about a new project [00:11:16] from Amazon MGM called Melania. For [00:11:19] years, the people in charge have tried [00:11:21] to tell you who she is, but they didn't [00:11:22] show you who she is. Now you can see for [00:11:25] yourself. Every protocol, every [00:11:27] precaution, every single move, [00:11:28] meticulously coordinated. This new film [00:11:31] takes you inside the 20 days leading up [00:11:33] to the 2025 presidential inauguration. [00:11:35] And it does it through the eyes of the [00:11:37] first lady, Melania Trump. The [00:11:39] briefings, the plings, the private [00:11:41] conversations. Witness what it takes to [00:11:44] get there to become first lady of the [00:11:46] United States. Mark your calendars. [00:11:48] Melania premieres in theaters January [00:11:51] 30th. So why would governments do this? [00:11:54] Well, that's kind of the more complex [00:11:55] question. They do it. They've always [00:11:57] done it. They would do it for a couple [00:12:00] of reasons. One, to meet a short-term [00:12:03] economic goal or even a long-term [00:12:04] economic goal. Short-term might be who's [00:12:06] going to pick the grapes in California? [00:12:08] Oh, better get some Mexicans. [00:12:10] Understandable. Most people are familiar [00:12:12] with that. Others might be longer term [00:12:15] adjustments to changes that no one can [00:12:18] really control like AI. Oh, wait a [00:12:21] second. We're not going to need as many [00:12:22] people here because machines are going [00:12:24] to do a lot of the work. How are we [00:12:25] going to support these people? That [00:12:27] might be another reason. And of course, [00:12:29] there might be darker motives or more [00:12:32] basic motives like the innate human [00:12:36] desire to conquer other people to [00:12:38] replace your group with my group. [00:12:41] That's not a conspiracy theory. That's [00:12:43] the entire story of history. [00:12:46] Mass movements of people by force has [00:12:49] been a constant since the Babylonian [00:12:51] captivity and probably before [00:12:53] unrecorded. [00:12:55] That is the story of history and it's [00:12:57] all around us, but we don't even notice. [00:12:59] The history of Ireland is that story. [00:13:01] Ireland, which is an island near [00:13:03] England, [00:13:05] was after Henry VIII Catholic. England [00:13:08] was Protestant. [00:13:10] The English took over Ireland, Ireland, [00:13:12] it was their colony. [00:13:14] And in order to make it more compliant [00:13:16] and to [00:13:18] control the people there and to impose [00:13:21] their culture on a foreign peoples, they [00:13:24] moved many thousands of foreigners into [00:13:28] Ireland. There were the AngloIrish or [00:13:29] Brits who moved to Ireland. That was the [00:13:30] ruling class of the country. There were [00:13:33] the ScotsIrish who were moved from [00:13:35] Scotland into Ireland. And in so doing, [00:13:38] a Protestant region of the country was [00:13:41] created called Olter. It's still there. [00:13:43] It's still mo at least half Protestant. [00:13:46] And at one point, the Brits move moved [00:13:48] the Hugenos in the 17th century from [00:13:50] France. They were a mostly forgotten [00:13:52] group now, [00:13:54] but they were expelled from France [00:13:56] during the series of Catholic Protestant [00:13:58] religious conflicts that swept through [00:13:59] Europe after Martin Luther. And the [00:14:02] Brits said, "Well, I've got an idea. Why [00:14:03] don't you move to Ireland?" and they [00:14:05] move them to Ireland, mostly to Dublin. [00:14:08] Why? [00:14:09] To change the demographic balance of [00:14:12] Ireland to make it easier to subdue and [00:14:14] to rub the noses of the people in their [00:14:18] culture to replace the culture, the [00:14:20] customs, the religion of the indigenous [00:14:23] population because they could. That's [00:14:25] why that's how people have done it [00:14:28] throughout history. And by the way, then [00:14:31] they went farther in Ireland, not to [00:14:32] dwell in Ireland, but it's very [00:14:34] interesting actually. [00:14:36] Not only did they move all kinds of [00:14:38] foreigners into Ireland to change the [00:14:40] demographic mix to affect a great [00:14:42] replacement, [00:14:44] they began to change the national [00:14:46] monuments. Oh, that's weird. Have you [00:14:48] seen that before? [00:14:50] St. Patrick's Cathedral in the middle of [00:14:51] Dublin. Got to be one of the biggest ca [00:14:54] Catholic shrines in Ireland. [00:14:58] They made it Anglican. [00:15:00] No longer Catholic. It's Anglican now. [00:15:02] Jonathan Swift preached there. Actually, [00:15:05] an AngloIrishman and so did many others. [00:15:08] But in the center of this Catholic [00:15:11] country, the colonial power moved non- [00:15:15] indigenous people in in order to make [00:15:17] the case this is ours now. And you see [00:15:20] that everywhere. [00:15:22] When the street across from the White [00:15:23] House gets repainted in Black Lives [00:15:25] Matter colors, it's kind of a species of [00:15:28] that, right? When the Confederate [00:15:29] statues are torn down in Richmond and [00:15:31] New Orleans, is it really an effort to [00:15:34] improve the lives of local black people? [00:15:36] No. Of course, it didn't work. Didn't [00:15:38] have any effect. No. It was a matter of [00:15:41] cultural imperialism. We run this now. [00:15:43] Down with your monuments, up with ours. [00:15:46] It's Pride Week. [00:15:48] It is the most recognizable pattern in [00:15:52] history. [00:15:54] It's one people conquering another. It's [00:15:57] what the Mongols did in the 13th and [00:15:59] 14th century. They swept through China. [00:16:02] They swept all the way to Europe, of [00:16:03] course, across Russia, famously. [00:16:06] And they completely changed the [00:16:08] populations of half the world. It was [00:16:10] the largest empire in history by land [00:16:12] mass. And along the way, they also did [00:16:15] something that no one likes to talk [00:16:16] about. They raped a lot of women. Why' [00:16:18] they do that? Well, partly to spread [00:16:21] their genetics. Just a fact. We can say [00:16:23] this cuz it was the Mongols. It was a [00:16:24] long time ago. Genghask Khan, the head [00:16:28] Mongol, [00:16:31] the creator of that empire, [00:16:33] has 16 million living descendants in the [00:16:37] world today. 16 million. [00:16:40] That tells you what a prolific [00:16:43] rapist he was. But why did he do that? [00:16:45] So he would have 16 million descendants. [00:16:47] Of course, the rape of Berlin after the [00:16:50] war, the rape of Nan King at the [00:16:51] beginning of the war. [00:16:53] Untold mass rapes through history. These [00:16:56] are acts of violence and brutality and [00:16:58] subjugation, of course. But they're also [00:17:00] acts of demographic change. That's what [00:17:02] they are. Not endorsing that, decrying [00:17:05] it. It's disgusting. [00:17:08] But it's also real and it's happened [00:17:10] throughout history. [00:17:12] one people conquering another. [00:17:17] And these are decisions not [00:17:20] made organically, not like millions of [00:17:22] people get together and decide let's [00:17:23] change the demographics of a continent, [00:17:25] a region. Let's destroy a people. These [00:17:29] are decisions made by leaders each and [00:17:32] every single time. [00:17:35] China takes Tibet. What's the first [00:17:36] thing they do? Move HanChinese into [00:17:38] Tibet. Why do they do that? Well, to [00:17:40] subjugate, to make a point. Ours is [00:17:42] superior culture to yours, [00:17:45] but also to control. [00:17:48] Once again, this is not a conspiracy [00:17:51] theory. This is the story of recorded [00:17:54] history, and it's a story of the present [00:17:56] day, obviously. [00:17:59] And only a country completely divorced [00:18:04] from history, from human nature, from [00:18:07] reality itself could ever fall for, ooh, [00:18:12] it's a debunked far-right white [00:18:14] nationalist conspiracy theory. [00:18:17] Really? [00:18:19] No, it's not. It's just the opposite. [00:18:21] It's the realest thing that ever [00:18:23] happened. [00:18:25] And that's not even a judgment. [00:18:28] It's just a fact. When you want to [00:18:30] control a place, you change the [00:18:33] demographics. In 1947, [00:18:37] mandate Palestine, what's now Israel, [00:18:40] was about 80% Arab. The next year was [00:18:44] what, like 32% Arab. the next year after [00:18:48] the War of Independence in 1948. I'm not [00:18:50] attacking anyone at all, but the point [00:18:53] is Israel was a majority Jewish country [00:18:58] on day one. [00:19:01] That was the whole point of displacing [00:19:03] everybody. We're here now. You're gone. [00:19:05] It was a great replacement. [00:19:09] Not casting aspersions, just saying that [00:19:12] all [00:19:14] wars are in in effect that they're all [00:19:17] that way. Every one of them, including [00:19:19] the one that we're living through that [00:19:21] is undeclared, that no one will admit is [00:19:22] happening because it's a conspiracy [00:19:23] theory, but it's the realest thing that [00:19:25] ever happened. So then we get to the [00:19:27] question of motive, like why is this [00:19:29] happening? Why would you do that? Why [00:19:31] would you want to do that? Why would you [00:19:33] want to hurt people and erase them? [00:19:37] Well, the most obvious motive would be [00:19:40] power. And that's usually the motive or [00:19:42] one of the motives. And in this country, [00:19:45] it's really clear that one of the [00:19:47] reasons this is happening is because the [00:19:50] Democratic Party and their overlords, [00:19:52] who are not partisan, they're just the [00:19:53] biggest shareholders in the country, the [00:19:56] richest people in the country, would [00:19:59] like to have uncontested power. And so [00:20:02] if you let in tens of millions of [00:20:05] immigrants, illegal aliens [00:20:08] over 60 years, [00:20:11] you're probably going to reach a point [00:20:13] where they just openly participate in [00:20:15] the political system where they get a [00:20:17] vote, thereby diluting, replacing [00:20:22] the voters who don't vote for you. This [00:20:25] is clearly the plan. It's always been [00:20:26] the plan, part of the plan. And Stacy [00:20:30] Abrams, who was a perennial candidate in [00:20:32] Georgia and somehow very famous, not [00:20:33] exactly clear why, but had one sort of [00:20:38] unique talent. She was dumb enough to [00:20:39] say this out loud. Here's Stacy Abrams [00:20:42] in 2018. [00:20:43] >> The Blue Wave is African-American. [00:20:48] >> It's white. It's Latino. It's [00:20:49] AsianPacific Islander. [00:20:52] >> It is disabled. [00:20:54] >> IT IS DIFFERENTLY AABLED. [00:20:56] >> IT IS LGBTQ. YES, [00:20:58] >> IT IS LAW ENFORCEMENT. [00:21:00] >> IT IS VETERANS. [00:21:01] >> YES, [00:21:02] >> IT IS MADE UP OF THOSE WHO'VE been told [00:21:04] that THEY ARE NOT WORTHY OF BEING HERE. [00:21:06] >> IT IS COMPRISED OF THOSE WHO are [00:21:08] documented and undocumented. [00:21:12] >> She's rolling. She's trying to remember [00:21:14] who's in the coalition. The aabled. The [00:21:18] what do we call them? Crippled. No. No. [00:21:20] Differently aabled. Differently aabled. [00:21:22] She's like going through the litany. [00:21:24] white, black, Latino, Pacific Islander, [00:21:28] people from Fiji, the gays, sorry, LGBTQ [00:21:32] questioning whatever [00:21:35] the documented, the undocumented. Oh, [00:21:38] wait a second. Stacy Abrams, did you [00:21:40] just say that illegal aliens are going [00:21:42] to vote in elections? Federal elections? [00:21:44] I think that's against the law. No, [00:21:45] whatever. You can't stop her. Stacy [00:21:47] Abrams, no one no one has the brass to [00:21:49] tell her to slow down. hate to brag, but [00:21:51] we're pretty confident this show is the [00:21:52] most vehemently pro- dog dog podcast [00:21:55] you're ever going to see. We can take or [00:21:58] leave some people, but dogs are [00:22:00] non-negotiable. They are the best. They [00:22:03] really are our best friends.

But she's just [00:23:19] saying out loud what everybody [00:23:20] [clears throat] [00:23:20] knows. Everybody's always known. The [00:23:23] reason that you move people in [00:23:27] is so you get more votes. And anyone who [00:23:30] thinks that's not true isn't being [00:23:33] honest with himself and isn't being [00:23:36] reality based. This is not about the [00:23:38] economy. Why would you 5 years ago at [00:23:41] the beginning of the Biden [00:23:42] administration when you know cuz you're [00:23:44] promoting it that AI is right around the [00:23:46] corner and we're going to need a lot [00:23:47] less labor really really soon and we're [00:23:49] talking about oh wow I guess we we're [00:23:51] going to have to give people guaranteed [00:23:54] income because they're just going to [00:23:55] have nothing to do all day at that exact [00:23:58] moment. Why would you move in tens of [00:24:00] millions of lowskilled laborers with [00:24:01] eighth grade eighth grade educations? [00:24:03] Like what are they going to do? No one [00:24:04] even addressed the question because it [00:24:06] had nothing to do with why they were [00:24:07] brought in. [00:24:08] wasn't to help the United States. And of [00:24:11] course, mass migration has not helped [00:24:13] the United States. One very obvious [00:24:15] point that lingers in the air, you don't [00:24:17] even want to address it because it's so [00:24:18] depressing, is how are those six cities [00:24:21] we mentioned at the outset doing today [00:24:23] in 2026, the six biggest cities in the [00:24:25] country in 1950. [00:24:29] Again, it was New York, Chicago, Los [00:24:32] Angeles, Detroit, Philadelphia, [00:24:36] Baltimore. [00:24:38] I mean, they're nice places in some of [00:24:40] those cities. Some of them are just [00:24:41] slums, actually. And there are [00:24:44] complicated reasons why manufacturing [00:24:46] died. Some of those are big [00:24:47] manufacturing hubs, of course. [00:24:50] Immigration is not the only reason. [00:24:52] Nothing is ever the only reason. [00:24:55] But all of those cities were completely [00:24:57] changed by immigration. And they all got [00:24:58] way worse. Much worse. Like much, much [00:25:01] worse. Philadelphia, really? Baltimore, [00:25:03] Detroit. [00:25:05] So it didn't help. And in some places [00:25:07] like Los Angeles, it just destroyed the [00:25:09] city completely and destroyed the state. [00:25:11] Completely destroyed the state. You want [00:25:13] to know what's wrong with California? [00:25:15] Too much immigration. It was amazing [00:25:17] state in 1980. I remember it well. You [00:25:20] wouldn't want to live there now. And [00:25:22] because the governor is like a white [00:25:24] liberal, you sort of forget [00:25:27] that the people live in California look [00:25:29] nothing like the people who live there [00:25:30] in 1980 at all when it was the least [00:25:33] corrupt and most functional state with [00:25:35] the best schools and the lowest poverty [00:25:36] rate. It now has more poverty than any [00:25:38] state. It's got more immigrants than any [00:25:40] state. There's just a one to one. [00:25:43] So, and it's not an attack on the [00:25:44] immigrants at all. Many of whom are [00:25:47] hardworking and nice. Some of whom are [00:25:48] not hardworking or nice, but a lot of [00:25:50] them are. Latin immigrants tend to be [00:25:53] pretty great when you when you know [00:25:54] them. [00:25:56] Enthusiastic participants in the [00:25:58] economy. [00:26:00] But taken as a whole, immigration [00:26:02] totally destroyed California just flat [00:26:04] out. There's no other factor meaningful [00:26:06] factor. That's the single biggest factor [00:26:08] in the destruction of California. And [00:26:09] you're ordered to pretend that didn't [00:26:11] happen. Oh, but it did happen. And one [00:26:14] of the effects was, as noted, it gave [00:26:16] Democrats complete control over the [00:26:18] state. Complete. It's a one party state, [00:26:20] period. And you often run into [00:26:22] Republicans from Santa Barbara, Orange [00:26:24] County, or up near Mount Shasta, from [00:26:26] Reading, you know, and they're as [00:26:28] conservative as anybody you've ever ever [00:26:30] met in your life. There's some real [00:26:31] right-wingers in California, but they [00:26:32] have no say in anything because they [00:26:34] control nothing because of immigration. [00:26:36] It's literally that simple. So it works [00:26:39] and that model will be repeated unless [00:26:41] someone puts the brakes on immediately [00:26:43] across the country. So there are 14 [00:26:46] states plus DC as of tonight that have [00:26:49] no voter ID laws. And in some places [00:26:51] you're not allowed to ask for voter ID [00:26:53] just flat out. But in 14 states you need [00:26:55] no identification in order to vote. Why [00:26:57] is that? Well, so illegals can vote. [00:26:59] It's literally that simple. It's not [00:27:00] more complicated than that. So illegals [00:27:02] can vote. And that means you have no [00:27:07] power if you're a native born American, [00:27:09] if you're an actual citizen of the [00:27:10] country, because your vote is being [00:27:12] canceled and in places like California [00:27:14] completely overwhelmed by people who [00:27:15] aren't from here who have no right to [00:27:16] vote, but they're voting anyway. And [00:27:19] what's interesting is that of the 14 [00:27:21] states with no voter ID law, [00:27:25] three are in the top five biggest states [00:27:28] by population, [00:27:30] three out of our top five biggest states [00:27:33] have no voter ID law. That's enough to [00:27:36] make those states Democrat. By the way, [00:27:38] for the record, those would be [00:27:40] California, number one in all [00:27:42] categories, [00:27:44] Illinois, and Pennsylvania have no voter [00:27:47] ID. So, that's enough to swing a [00:27:49] presidential election. Sorry, it is. And [00:27:52] there's no way to stop it unless you [00:27:54] were to ban and then enforce voting with [00:27:57] no ID. You'd have to enforce it. [00:28:00] But at this point, we're not enforcing [00:28:01] much. And we'll show you how little [00:28:03] we're enforcing in just a minute. No one [00:28:05] is enforcing the law in a lot of parts [00:28:07] of the country. It's becoming in fact an [00:28:10] insurrection and we'll show you that in [00:28:12] a minute. But to the second motive here [00:28:14] which is inescapable and it's almost it [00:28:16] is uncomfortable to talk about but it is [00:28:17] the subtext behind a lot of this is [00:28:20] racial triumphalism is hatred is [00:28:23] loathing for the people being replaced [00:28:26] which doesn't make intuitive sense. Why [00:28:29] would you be mad at people you're [00:28:31] replacing? Well it's not clear. There [00:28:33] are obviously spiritual components here [00:28:34] too which probably no mortal understands [00:28:36] but they're real. They're evident. What [00:28:39] is this? Why would you do that? Why [00:28:42] would you make why you totally change [00:28:44] the population of Australia, New [00:28:45] Zealand? Why would you totally check [00:28:46] Canada, Great Britain? Every English-sp [00:28:50] speakaking white country is becoming [00:28:51] non-white at very high speed, faster [00:28:55] than any time probably since the Mongol [00:28:57] invasions. [00:28:58] So why would you do that? And what [00:29:01] happens when you do that? Well, it's [00:29:04] interesting and this is a feature of [00:29:05] human nature. And it's not just white, [00:29:07] black, Hispanic. It's probably all [00:29:09] races, but this is just true. [00:29:12] Former majorities don't get treated [00:29:14] well. [00:29:16] But you really can't think of a case [00:29:18] where a people has gone from majority to [00:29:21] minority and then was treated well. It [00:29:23] just kind of hasn't happened. Including [00:29:25] in this country, by the way, the [00:29:26] American Indians, not treated well. [00:29:28] carted off to Oklahoma. Had to walk. [00:29:30] Actually, no carts. [00:29:33] What happened to the white minority in [00:29:35] Zimbabwe? They voluntarily relinquished [00:29:38] power. Then they were killed. South [00:29:41] Africa, they're in the process of being [00:29:42] killed. They voluntarily once again [00:29:43] voluntarily relinquish power. They had [00:29:45] nuclear weapons in 1994. Gave up the [00:29:47] nuclear weapons, gave up power, went to [00:29:50] majority rule system. It was a peaceful [00:29:53] transition. D Clerk Mandela, you [00:29:55] remember the scenes from 1994. or how'd [00:29:58] that end? Well, it's not over yet, but [00:30:01] the persecution of the people formerly [00:30:04] in power began very, very quickly. How [00:30:06] did it wind up for the Palestinians? [00:30:08] As noted, they were 80% of Israel in [00:30:11] 1947, 30% in 1948. How's it gone for [00:30:15] them since? Not well. A lot have been [00:30:19] killed. And it's complicated. They did [00:30:21] bad things, too. By the way, the Indians [00:30:23] sculped a lot of people and a partate [00:30:25] was bad. I mean, you know, there are [00:30:26] lots of [00:30:28] lenses through which you could view [00:30:30] this, but if you stand back, [00:30:32] former majorities who become minorities [00:30:37] tend to be killed. You hope that's not [00:30:39] true, but it seems to be. [00:30:43] And it's especially distressing [00:30:46] when you look at the attitude of people [00:30:50] in the United States who are pushing for [00:30:52] mass demographic change. And just to put [00:30:54] a tighter focus on it, [00:30:58] people who are pushing for an end to the [00:31:00] white majority. [00:31:03] Oh, it's white supremacist to say that. [00:31:05] No, it's not. It's an acknowledgement of [00:31:08] reality. And by the way, if you're [00:31:10] looking for hatred, [00:31:13] it's not a lot of white supremacists. [00:31:15] Well, even visible in public. Where are [00:31:16] all these white supremacists we keep [00:31:17] hearing about? But the people who are [00:31:20] concerned about total demographic change [00:31:22] don't seem like the hateful ones. It's [00:31:24] the people espousing it who have a weird [00:31:27] gleam in their eye [00:31:30] and a detectable loathing in their [00:31:32] voice. [00:31:33] And very often, and this may be the [00:31:35] darkest feature of it, it's not just [00:31:37] hatred, it's selfhatred. [00:31:41] And keep in mind that anyone who will [00:31:42] hate himself will have no problem at all [00:31:44] hating and hurting you. Here's Nancy [00:31:47] Pelosi a few years ago. Keep in mind she [00:31:52] was the speaker of the house, third in [00:31:54] line to the presidency. And this is part [00:31:56] of a speech she gave on the House floor [00:31:59] about demographic change. Watch this. [00:32:01] >> I'm reminded of um my own grandson. He's [00:32:05] um [00:32:07] Irish, English, [00:32:09] whatever, whatever, and Italian [00:32:11] American. He's is the mix, but he looks [00:32:14] more like the other side of the family, [00:32:16] shall we say? He's um and when he had [00:32:19] his um sixth fifth birth, sixth [00:32:22] birthday, he had a very close friend [00:32:24] whose name is Antonio, who's from [00:32:26] Guatemala. And he has beautiful tan [00:32:30] skin, beautiful brown eyes, and the [00:32:32] rest. And um this was such a proud day [00:32:35] for me because when my grandson blew out [00:32:38] the candles on his cake, they said, "Did [00:32:40] you make a wish?" And he said, "Yes, I [00:32:42] made a wish." He said, "Well, what is [00:32:44] your wish?" He said, "I wish I had brown [00:32:45] skin and brown eyes like Antonio." [00:32:50] So beautiful. So beautiful. The beauty [00:32:53] is in the mix. The face of the future [00:32:56] for our country is uh all American. And [00:32:59] that has many versions. Imagine [00:33:04] saying that. I mean, she's obviously a [00:33:07] subgenius. Hasn't thought this through, [00:33:09] but this is her own grandson. And he [00:33:12] turns to her and says, "Grandom, I wish [00:33:13] I wasn't born white. I wish I was born [00:33:16] with different eye color, different skin [00:33:19] tone. I wish it was something that I'm [00:33:21] not. I wish God didn't make me this [00:33:23] way." Imagine if your own grandson said [00:33:25] that. It would break your heart. [00:33:28] It would break your heart. And by the [00:33:29] way, it's only on this topic. I wish I [00:33:31] wasn't white. that that's okay. If a [00:33:33] grandson had said, "Grandom, I wish I [00:33:35] wasn't gay," she would have smacked him [00:33:37] in the face with a ruler. "YOU WERE BORN [00:33:39] GAY. ENJOY IT." [00:33:42] But when he says, "I wish I wasn't [00:33:44] white," she says, "You're right. It's [00:33:47] good to want to be Antonio and not be [00:33:49] yourself, not be what God made you." Her [00:33:52] own grandson. [00:33:55] Has she been black and gotten up and [00:33:57] said, you know, my grandson said to me, [00:34:01] my granddaughter had a white Barbie doll [00:34:02] and said, "Grandom, I I wish I had [00:34:04] blonde hair and blue eyes." All of us [00:34:07] would say, "That's awful. God made you [00:34:09] like this." It's sad to want to be [00:34:12] something that you're not. You should be [00:34:14] comfortable with the way you were made. [00:34:16] Isn't that a kind of foundational modern [00:34:17] American belief? Except when you're [00:34:20] white, it's beautiful when you hate [00:34:23] yourself. That's what she's saying. [00:34:25] That's what she said on the House floor. [00:34:28] She became the speaker of the house [00:34:30] twice. [00:34:32] So, she speaks not simply for herself, [00:34:34] but for a lot of people, including a lot [00:34:38] of whites like her. [00:34:41] And by the way, that's not compassion. [00:34:45] That's hatred. [00:34:47] That's saying to a six-year-old, "No, [00:34:49] you were born the wrong way. You are [00:34:53] fundamentally flawed. There's nothing [00:34:55] you can do about it. You're not as good [00:34:56] as Antonio. [00:35:00] Okay? [00:35:02] There's hatred. That is hatred. [00:35:06] And it expresses itself. [00:35:09] By the way, Nancy Pelosi is from [00:35:10] Baltimore and she grew up there when it [00:35:12] was 85% white. [00:35:15] How was it now? She doesn't go back very [00:35:18] often, apparently. Things around the [00:35:20] world are moving so fast right now, it's [00:35:24] impossible to keep up with all of the [00:35:26] changes. [music] But we do know that [00:35:27] when those changes happen, markets [00:35:30] change, too. And nothing changes faster [00:35:33] than the price of [music] precious [00:35:34] metals, gold, and silver. It just shifts [00:35:36] in an instant because it is a reaction [00:35:40] to and against what's happening in the [00:35:42] world. So, timing is essential. If [00:35:44] you're thinking about adding precious [00:35:46] metals, and you definitely should, we [00:35:48] do, you need to know when prices are [00:35:51] going to [music] move and why they're [00:35:52] moving. And Battalion Metals makes that [00:35:54] all really simple. You can buy the dip [00:35:56] when it happens. Try calling your broker [00:35:59] in the public equities market. [00:36:01] No, this is a new world and Battalion [00:36:05] makes it a transparent and honest world. [00:36:08] There's no fraud here at all. We were [00:36:10] founded to fight fraud. So, if you want [00:36:12] realtime alerts sent directly to your [00:36:14] inbox when gold and silver prices move, [00:36:17] go to battalionals.com/alerts. [00:36:22] Markets move fast. Stay ahead of them. [00:36:24] So, it's battalion.com/alerts. [00:36:29] But in New York City, which went from 90 [00:36:32] to 30 from 1950 to present, probably [00:36:36] less than 30 if for real, [00:36:39] the new mayor, everyone's focused on his [00:36:42] foreign policy views. How does he feel [00:36:43] about Israel? Who cares? [00:36:46] How does he feel about white Americans? [00:36:48] Well, we know cuz he says, "Well, I'm [00:36:50] going to tax them more cuz they're [00:36:51] white." [00:36:53] the new head, his new rental authority [00:36:56] lady said recently, "White people own [00:36:59] too much. They should rent like everyone [00:37:02] else." Really, that's not justice. [00:37:05] That's not equity. That's hatred. That's [00:37:07] undisguised hostility toward people for [00:37:11] how they look. [00:37:13] But because they're increasingly a [00:37:15] defeated people, that's not only okay, [00:37:17] it's encouraged. [00:37:21] You don't want to be on the wrong side [00:37:22] of that. Not because you're a white [00:37:24] supremacist and love only white people. [00:37:27] That's insane. God made every person, [00:37:30] every human being was created by God. [00:37:32] Period. [00:37:34] It's not a matter of loving only people [00:37:36] who look like you, loving only whites or [00:37:38] blacks or whatever. [00:37:40] It's a matter of not hating people on [00:37:42] the basis of how they were born. But [00:37:45] these dynamics don't change much because [00:37:47] there's something in people that wants [00:37:50] to crush and humiliate the vanquished [00:37:54] every single time. [00:37:57] And you'd like to think that this nation [00:38:01] is exceptional in the sense that that [00:38:03] wouldn't happen here, but there's no [00:38:04] evidence of it at all. As whites became [00:38:06] become a smaller proportion of the US [00:38:09] population every year, louder become the [00:38:12] calls to hate whites. more open becomes [00:38:15] the hatred, the hostility, the threats [00:38:17] of violence. [00:38:19] Crimes against white people like, "Well, [00:38:20] I don't know. The perpetrator was black. [00:38:22] You're white. [00:38:24] Every single American knows [00:38:27] those crimes are not punished as [00:38:29] vigorously or as harshly as the reverse. [00:38:31] Everyone knows that and accepts it." Oh, [00:38:34] big mistake to accept that. [00:38:36] If there's no such thing as equality [00:38:38] under the law, if you can be punished [00:38:40] more lightly [00:38:42] or more severely based on your race, [00:38:45] your ethnicity, your religion, we're all [00:38:47] in trouble. All of us. First of all, [00:38:49] we're all degraded [00:38:50] because that's the definition of [00:38:52] immoral. Blood guilt is not real despite [00:38:54] what our leaders tell us. And it's [00:38:57] totally possible that you and your [00:38:59] group, your community [00:39:02] are going to wind up on the wrong side [00:39:03] of that someday. But for right now, it's [00:39:06] very obvious that whites are on the [00:39:08] wrong side of that. And you can tell by [00:39:10] the behavior of the people at the ICE [00:39:12] protest. So this was Minneapolis just a [00:39:13] couple of nights ago. This is a bunch [00:39:15] of, of course, primarily white cuz [00:39:17] Minneapolis, one of the last [00:39:21] big cities in America with a sizable [00:39:23] white population, [00:39:25] running into a church and threatening [00:39:28] the parishioners in the church. And [00:39:31] you've probably seen footage of this, [00:39:32] but listen carefully to the clip you're [00:39:34] about to hear, [00:39:37] and you can hear effectively racial [00:39:39] epithets aimed at white people. So, [00:39:43] two things are going on here. One is the [00:39:45] protesters of course hate Christianity, [00:39:48] and they hate whites, white Christians. [00:39:51] Now, that's familiar. Very familiar. [00:39:54] There's a lot of hatred toward white [00:39:56] Christians. Now, where does that come [00:39:57] from? It's obviously [00:40:00] spiritual at its root like everything [00:40:04] hard to understand exactly why that [00:40:07] group is targeted around the world but [00:40:10] we know that it is [00:40:12] certainly that's one of the primary [00:40:15] motives in going to war against Russia [00:40:17] destroying Ukraine completely destroyed [00:40:20] Ukraine was destroyed by the west by the [00:40:22] way it was destroyed by Washington and [00:40:24] Brussels who pushed Russia into this [00:40:27] war. They wanted this war. They said [00:40:29] they wanted this war. They got the war. [00:40:32] Very few of their people have been [00:40:34] killed in the war, but hundreds and [00:40:36] hundreds of likely over a million [00:40:38] Ukrainians have been killed in this war. [00:40:40] You think Ukraine will be majority [00:40:42] Ukrainian in a 100 years? You think the [00:40:45] land in Ukraine will be owned by [00:40:46] Ukrainians in 20 years? No, of course [00:40:49] not. It won't be Russia that did that. [00:40:55] It'll be the West. And you have to [00:40:56] wonder why. Well, the fact that Ukraine [00:40:58] was white and Christian, one of the last [00:41:01] big concentrations of white Christians [00:41:03] on the planet, maybe that had something [00:41:04] to do with it. Of course, it did. [00:41:07] Obviously, [00:41:09] that's not a far-right conspiracy [00:41:11] theory. It's the truth. [00:41:14] So the same attitudes that did that that [00:41:17] are at work in Canada, Australia, New [00:41:19] Zealand, and very much here in the [00:41:21] United States were sort of distilled in [00:41:23] the clip you're about to see from a [00:41:25] church a couple of days ago in [00:41:26] Minneapolis. Watch this. [00:41:31] >> RENEE, GOOD. RENEE, GOOD. WHERE ARE YOU? [00:41:35] WHERE ARE YOU? WHERE ARE YOUR PEOPLE? [00:41:38] >> WHY ARE YOU NOT AT WHIPPLE EVERY DAY [00:41:39] FIGHTING FOR THE HUMANITY, STANDING FOR [00:41:41] OUR PEOPLE? WHERE ARE YOU? YOU DRINK [00:41:43] YOUR COFFEE. You got your jewelry. You [00:41:45] have your nice clothes. But what do you [00:41:47] do? What What do you do to stand for [00:41:48] your Somali and Latino community? I'm [00:41:50] not gonna comment. You have no comment. [00:41:51] Exactly. [cheering] [00:41:58] SAY YOUR NAME. [00:41:58] >> RENEE. GOOD. [cheering] [00:42:00] >> RENEE. GOOD. [music] [00:42:06] All these comfortable white people who [00:42:08] are living lavish, COMFORTABLE LIVES [00:42:10] WHILE CHILDREN ARE DRAGGED INTO [00:42:12] CONCENTRATION CAMPS. You're living real [00:42:13] life, nice lives with your lattes, doing [00:42:15] absolutely nothing for your Latino and [00:42:17] Somali brothers and sisters. You You [00:42:19] come here TO A MAN WEARING A SUIT IS A [00:42:21] PREACHER. Did Jesus wear a suit? Did [00:42:23] Jesus profit OFF THE WORDS? NO. JESUS [00:42:26] WOULD DIE WITHIN. You do not touch me. [00:42:28] Touch me again and see what happens. [00:42:30] >> Hey, you can't. [00:42:31] >> You are A FAKE CHRISTIAN. WHY ARE YOU [00:42:33] NOT STANDING WITH YOUR SOMALI AND LATINO [00:42:35] COMMUNITIES? WHY DO I NOT SEE YOU OUT AT [00:42:37] WHIPPLE EVERY DAY PROTESTING THIS ATTACK [00:42:39] ON HUMANITY? WHERE are you? You're [00:42:41] sinners. You're pretending to be [00:42:43] Christians. But we know you live an easy [00:42:44] life, DON'T YOU? A VERY EASY LIFE WHILE [00:42:46] PEOPLE ARE STARVING. SHAME, [snorts] [00:42:49] >> MAN. [00:42:51] Is that man capable of violence? Well, [00:42:53] he's committing it, of course. [00:42:56] Disrupting a church service. people who [00:42:58] mean no one harm, who are committing no [00:43:00] crime, who've done nothing wrong, [00:43:02] screaming at him for being white [00:43:03] Christians. [00:43:06] That's it right there. That's it right [00:43:09] there. [00:43:11] And you should know that that's not the [00:43:14] last clip like that you're going to see, [00:43:15] not just tonight, but in the future, [00:43:18] because that's the animating spirit [00:43:20] behind what you're watching. No one is [00:43:23] making an economic case for mass [00:43:25] migration. Nobody is making an economic [00:43:28] case for keeping tens of millions of [00:43:30] illegals in this country cuz there isn't [00:43:32] an economic case for it. There is no [00:43:33] case that begins with let me tell you [00:43:36] how this will make our country better. [00:43:39] No one even makes that case. The case [00:43:42] they're making is we are replacing the [00:43:46] people who founded this country, who [00:43:49] built the system for themselves, by the [00:43:52] way, with a brand new people who have [00:43:56] very little in common with those people. [00:43:58] And why are we doing that? Because we [00:43:59] hate those people. [00:44:02] And it's not just deranged protesters [00:44:04] who are making that case. So are former [00:44:07] CNN anchors. Here's Don Lemon, who was [00:44:10] part of that protest. He was covering it [00:44:12] in the way that journalists often cover [00:44:14] events. They help organize [laughter] [00:44:16] those events. They're their foot [00:44:18] soldiers. We're just covering it. Okay, [00:44:22] here's Don Lemon going on some podcast [00:44:24] with angry middle-aged rich ladies to [00:44:27] talk about how virtuous it is to scream [00:44:30] at whites in Minneapolis. Watch this. [00:44:33] >> Is a certain degree of racism there and [00:44:35] there's a certain degree of entitlement. [00:44:36] I think people who are, you know, in the [00:44:39] religious groups like that, it's not the [00:44:40] type of Christianity that I practice, [00:44:42] but I think that they're entitled and [00:44:44] that that entitlement comes from a [00:44:46] supremacy, a white supremacy. And they [00:44:49] think that this country was built for [00:44:50] them, that it is a Christian country, [00:44:51] when actually we left England because we [00:44:53] wanted religious freedom. It's religious [00:44:55] freedom, but only if you're a Christian [00:44:56] and only if you're a white male. [00:44:59] >> Huh. I mean, it's it's hard to you don't [00:45:02] ever want to take Don Lemon literally [00:45:05] because he's disconnected from reality. [00:45:08] And you can say, "Well, actually, he's [00:45:09] got a white boyfriend and he lives in [00:45:11] the Hamptons. Who's entitled here?" But [00:45:15] it's fruitless and it diminishes you to [00:45:18] rebut a Don Lemon rant to some facelift [00:45:21] lady on the specifics because the [00:45:24] specifics don't matter because it just [00:45:27] doesn't make any sense. It doesn't need [00:45:28] to make sense. All you need to [00:45:30] understand is the spirit behind it, [00:45:32] which is hate. Hate and resentment and [00:45:36] the desire for revenge. That's what this [00:45:38] is. [00:45:40] And there's no other explanation that [00:45:42] anyone's even offered up other than you [00:45:45] some have an obligation to hurt [00:45:46] yourself. [00:45:48] And so really, it's time to just be [00:45:50] completely honest. This is an act of [00:45:52] hatred and aggression [00:45:55] toward the population of the United [00:45:57] States. American citizens, people who [00:45:59] were born here, people whose [00:46:00] grandparents were born here. They are [00:46:02] hated by the people in charge and have [00:46:05] been for a long time. And the plan, [00:46:09] which is pretty close to completion [00:46:11] actually, it's not a distant goal. It's [00:46:14] like almost here, is to replace them, [00:46:16] render them powerless. And if people [00:46:19] like Don Lemon have any say over it, [00:46:22] hurt them. Just listen to what they say. [00:46:24] You don't have to conspiracy theorize, [00:46:27] just open your eyes and listen and you [00:46:30] can tell what they have planned for you [00:46:32] cuz it's happened in a lot of places. It [00:46:34] always happens. And so these are fights [00:46:37] worth having actually because it's not [00:46:40] about [00:46:42] preserving racial purity. [00:46:45] It's about preserving your country in [00:46:47] recognizable form, preserving your life [00:46:50] and the lives of your children. If all [00:46:53] of a sudden there were you lived in a [00:46:55] country where 60% of the people agreed [00:46:57] with Don Lemon, how do you think you'd [00:46:59] do? [00:47:01] Not well at all. [laughter] And not only [00:47:04] would you be stripped of your [00:47:06] possessions, not only would your [00:47:07] children be ground into the dust, you'd [00:47:09] be lectured as it happened, lectured [00:47:11] about how you deserved it. This is what [00:47:13] you get for the sins of your ancestors. [00:47:15] the blood guilt people would start [00:47:16] lecturing you about it. You'd be treated [00:47:19] like the Palestinians in Gaza. It's the [00:47:21] same idea. It's the same idea. You're [00:47:25] responsible for the sins of your [00:47:27] ancestors because blood guilt is real. [00:47:29] There couldn't be a more anti-Christian [00:47:31] worldview than that. It's one of the [00:47:32] reasons they hate Christians because [00:47:33] they stand in the way. [00:47:35] So because profound questions underly [00:47:40] this argument over ICE, the stakes for [00:47:43] us have suddenly become existential. And [00:47:48] the behavior of the people involved in [00:47:50] this has become extraordinary. [00:47:53] And all of this adds up to a pretty [00:47:55] remarkable, pretty shocking scene [00:47:57] tonight in Minneapolis. ignored by most [00:48:01] people in the media, but not by Nick [00:48:03] Sorder, who's a freelance journalist [00:48:05] who's been just taking videos of what he [00:48:07] sees. This is a video that he just shot [00:48:10] of a group of friends of Don Lemons [00:48:14] breaking into a law enforcement vehicle [00:48:16] and stealing the weapons out of the back [00:48:18] of it. It's about 2 minutes long. Watch [00:48:19] this whole thing for a more precise [00:48:22] sense of where we are right now. [00:48:28] Almost there. [00:48:30] >> Oh wow. [00:48:37] >> Oh my god. [music] Oh my [00:48:42] god. [00:48:51] >> Hit the bullets. [00:48:54] So, you hate to go right to the obvious [00:48:56] and say storming of the of the Bastile, [00:48:59] but whenever you've got a [snorts] crowd [00:49:02] of violencebent extremists, [00:49:07] stealing government weapons, and running [00:49:10] off into the night without being [00:49:11] arrested, you have the potential for [00:49:14] revolution and then great bloodshed in [00:49:17] the aftermath of that. So, it it's [00:49:20] almost obvious it doesn't bear saying [00:49:22] out loud, but we will anyway because we [00:49:24] love the obvious. You have to stop this [00:49:26] now or else things will fall apart. Nick [00:49:30] Sorder is the man who shot that video. [00:49:32] Uh, and he joins us now. Um, [snorts] [00:49:34] Nick, can you first of all, thank you [00:49:36] for doing that. This is a true public [00:49:37] service, I think, to bring this to the [00:49:39] public. Um, what what did we just see? [00:49:43] Can you give some context? [00:49:46] >> Yeah. Yeah. So, Tucker, what I'll tell [00:49:47] you is this happened not far from [00:49:49] downtown Minneapolis. So, there are [00:49:51] police everywhere all the time, right? I [00:49:54] mean, it's it's pretty it's a pretty [00:49:55] concentrated area with uh with police. [00:49:58] And these riers had 2 hours two hours to [00:50:02] go through multiple FBI vehicles. [00:50:05] There's another vehicle that was parked [00:50:07] right behind this one where they were [00:50:09] able they had enough time and they [00:50:10] weren't worried about Minneapolis police [00:50:12] showing up. So, they took a tow strap [00:50:14] out of the back of a pickup truck, [00:50:16] mounted it to and tied it around uh the [00:50:19] the weapons locker in the other vehicle, [00:50:22] mounted it to the pickup truck, and [00:50:24] yanked it out that way. Uh, and they're [00:50:27] not worried at all about any [00:50:28] repercussions from Minneapolis PD. As [00:50:31] soon as it happened, I went over to uh [00:50:35] Minneapolis PD, who I figured out were [00:50:36] about a block away from there, and I [00:50:38] gave them the information. I gave them [00:50:40] the description of the individual. I [00:50:42] gave them the the video. I let them take [00:50:44] a picture of the person's face. I gave [00:50:46] them the license plate number as well as [00:50:48] the car that he was in. This guy that [00:50:51] just stole not just a rifle, but a [00:50:53] select fire rifle, an automatic rifle [00:50:56] from an FBI vehicle. They chose not to [00:50:59] go after the vehicle that they could see [00:51:01] down the street. He hadn't even left [00:51:03] yet. But these cowards that are at the [00:51:06] higher ranks of MPD, they're under [00:51:08] people like Jacob Fry, who is basically [00:51:11] Mayor Soy Boy. That's what I prefer to [00:51:13] call him. Uh at this point, are uh [00:51:16] they've been cucked. I don't know how [00:51:18] else to say it, Tucker. They if you if [00:51:21] you knew in a city in let's say uh rural [00:51:25] Georgia that somebody just stole an [00:51:27] automatic rifle and you see them in your [00:51:29] sights, those sheriff's departments are [00:51:31] going to go after them immediately. [00:51:32] They're not going to let them get away. [00:51:34] Not in Minneapolis. That's not what [00:51:36] happens. They let them go out into the [00:51:38] wild. And uh, of course, there were no [00:51:40] legacy media networks there. Not like, [00:51:43] you know, ABC, NBC, or anything. As soon [00:51:45] as it gets a little dicey, they run [00:51:47] away. So, it's up to people like me in a [00:51:50] disguise that have to go in there and [00:51:52] film this. There are no cops around. And [00:51:53] Tucker, even if you did call 911, which [00:51:56] I did multiple times, you get zero [00:51:59] assistance. It doesn't matter the amount [00:52:00] of death threats that are being screamed [00:52:02] at you in the background on the call. Uh [00:52:04] when I I got robbed the other day by a a [00:52:07] gang of Somali. They stole over $1,000 [00:52:09] worth of camera equipment from me. I [00:52:11] called 911. They didn't ask me, "Are you [00:52:14] in any danger right now? I was bleeding [00:52:16] from the arm after being dragged down [00:52:18] the street by the vehicle." That no, the [00:52:20] question they asked me was, "Are you [00:52:21] white, Hispanic, black, or Somali?" That [00:52:25] was one of their biggest concerns. and [00:52:27] it still took them 30 minutes to come to [00:52:28] the scene, but that's like my fourth 911 [00:52:31] call in the past three weeks out in [00:52:33] Minneapolis. And uh it's the first time [00:52:35] they actually responded. So the fact [00:52:37] they responded in 30 minutes, I was [00:52:39] actually surprised that they came out. [00:52:41] >> I I'm just I'm shocked by everything [00:52:43] you've just said. I I do think we run [00:52:46] the risk of misinterpreting people like [00:52:49] Jacob Fry. [00:52:51] Obviously, they're feminized. Everything [00:52:53] you said is true. They're they're [00:52:54] craven. They're they're weak. But [00:52:56] there's also a will to power there. I [00:52:58] mean this is a this is Trosky, okay? [00:53:00] This is the the looting of the armory. [00:53:02] This is the way that people like Fry and [00:53:05] there are many people like Fry gain [00:53:07] power which is through violence. It's [00:53:08] through the mob. It's through mob action [00:53:10] that they become more powerful. So it's [00:53:12] not just that he he he can't stop it cuz [00:53:14] he's too weak. He wants it. Just as the [00:53:18] governor of the state of Minnesota and [00:53:20] his creepy Winnie Mandela wife, you [00:53:22] know, breathe deep the smell of burning [00:53:24] tires during the George Floyd riots [00:53:26] because revolution means power to them. [00:53:30] And so it feels to me just from the [00:53:31] footage that you shot that things are [00:53:33] getting completely out of control. [00:53:37] They're totally out of control and they [00:53:39] have been for several weeks now. But [00:53:41] this is exactly how Tim Waltz wants it [00:53:43] right now. I'm being totally upfront [00:53:45] with you, Tucker. I truly believe this. [00:53:48] >> This is the best case scenario for Tim [00:53:51] Waltz because what were we talking [00:53:53] about? The reason that I was out there [00:53:54] already when this shooting happened [00:53:56] after the woman tried to run down an ICE [00:53:59] agent with her vehicle, [00:54:00] >> uh, I was already out there because we [00:54:02] were talking about the Somali fraud. So, [00:54:04] the riots, the unrest in the streets, [00:54:07] the assaults on ICE agents, the just [00:54:09] non-stop aroundthe-clock mayhem is the [00:54:13] only thing that has distracted everybody [00:54:17] from continuing to be able to talk about [00:54:19] the uh the billions of dollars worth of [00:54:21] fraud that have been enabled under Tim [00:54:23] Waltz. And we have to get back to that. [00:54:27] We can't let that go away. But in the [00:54:29] meantime, we also can't allow uh ICE [00:54:31] agents who are taking rapists and and [00:54:33] child molesters and all of these violent [00:54:36] illegals off the street. We can't just [00:54:38] leave them hanging as well. And so I I'm [00:54:41] pretty much going to move to Minneapolis [00:54:43] at this point. And that is not a place I [00:54:44] want to be. [00:54:46] >> It was such a nice city. Uh it was [00:54:48] famously a Swedish city, so I knew about [00:54:50] it. And um it was it was a really really [00:54:52] nice place not that long ago. It's [00:54:53] completely it's unrecognizable now. And [00:54:56] immigration is one of the main reasons [00:54:58] for that. It just it's just true. Can I [00:55:00] ask where were the FBI agents as their [00:55:02] automatic weapons were being stolen? [00:55:06] >> Uh so uh that is a fantastic question [00:55:10] which I uh I haven't really you know [00:55:13] with the like I I'm a big supporter of [00:55:15] the FBI. I think they do great things. I [00:55:17] I don't like the the fact that uh we're [00:55:20] just abandoning federal vehicles in the [00:55:23] road. Uh, however, especially when [00:55:25] there's a riot going on, uh, however, [00:55:28] like these guys need some reinforcements [00:55:31] out here, right? There are way way too [00:55:33] many riers that that just vastly [00:55:36] outnumber [00:55:38] uh, federal agents. So, that that's why [00:55:41] I keep calling for troops here, [00:55:44] military, police, uh, federalizing the [00:55:46] National Guard, even insurrection act, [00:55:48] whatever you have to do to protect these [00:55:50] guys. There aren't enough federal [00:55:52] agency. They got pushed back. They got [00:55:54] forced all the way back and that's why [00:55:56] their vehicles ended up being outside of [00:55:57] the perimeter at that point because the [00:55:59] vehicles were parked several blocks away [00:56:01] from where the shooting happened, I [00:56:03] believe last week when that uh illegal [00:56:06] Venezuelan came out an agent with a [00:56:07] shovel, right? And tried to hit him with [00:56:09] the shovel and they had to shoot him in [00:56:10] the leg. Uh and so once that perimeter [00:56:12] shrunk because they don't have enough [00:56:14] manpower, that left those vehicles [00:56:16] exposed. Uh, and you know, the the FBI, [00:56:20] like I I'll give them a lot of credit [00:56:21] for this because they know that [00:56:23] Minneapolis PD is not going to uh do [00:56:27] anything. They're not going to predict [00:56:28] independent journalists like me when I [00:56:30] was robbed by that Somali gang in the [00:56:31] road. Uh, this is breaking here just [00:56:33] now. Like they just Cash Patel just [00:56:35] called me like right before I I did the [00:56:37] hit on the show. Uh, so they found uh my [00:56:40] camera. They have recovered the camera [00:56:42] that was stolen. And that's only because [00:56:44] they jumped in knowing that Minneapolis [00:56:46] PD was going to do nothing about it. [00:56:48] Because in reality, Minneapolis PD, they [00:56:51] don't want people like me here. Because [00:56:53] I'm documenting all of their failures. [00:56:55] I'm documenting the fact that they are [00:56:56] letting these third world invaders run [00:56:59] free through the streets, committing, [00:57:01] you know, billions of dollars worth of [00:57:03] fraud in broad daylight and nothing is [00:57:06] being done about it. They hate people [00:57:08] like me being here. Uh, and so I [00:57:10] appreciate the FBI and and Cash Patel [00:57:12] stepping in and and and recovering that [00:57:14] camera uh because it it definitely [00:57:16] wouldn't have been done uh by the city. [00:57:18] They told me very specifically, Tucker, [00:57:21] when the police finally responded after [00:57:23] 30 minutes and I'm still sitting there [00:57:24] bleeding from being dragged by a [00:57:26] vehicle. They told me that I was in the [00:57:29] wrong by being in that area and told me [00:57:32] I had to leave that area because I had [00:57:33] no business in that area. I HAVE A HELL [00:57:35] OF A LOT MORE BUSINESS in that area than [00:57:38] anybody else that's there at this point. [00:57:39] Okay, this is the United States of [00:57:41] America and I am not going to be [00:57:43] terrorized out of leaving an American [00:57:46] city because they want to surrender it [00:57:48] to a bunch of third world pirates. I'm [00:57:50] just not going to do it. [00:57:51] >> Well, you have as much connection to [00:57:52] Minneapolis really as Jacob Fry does. [00:57:54] You know, he's not he's from New York. [00:57:56] He's not he's not or I think he's [00:57:57] actually from suburban DC. He's not from [00:57:59] there at all. He has no roots there at [00:58:01] all. He just showed up to ferment [00:58:02] revolution and to increase his own [00:58:06] power. Obviously, they haven't improved [00:58:08] the city in the slightest. It's gotten [00:58:10] much worse under his so-called [00:58:12] leadership. So, who do you call? I mean, [00:58:16] if the if FBI's vehicles get looted, [00:58:18] there are no FBI agents [00:58:21] there to protect their own vehicles. By [00:58:23] the way, don't they have an obligation [00:58:24] to make sure their automatic weapons [00:58:25] don't wind up in the hands of criminals? [00:58:27] Like, aren't they aren't they supposed [00:58:29] to protect their own ve? They're the [00:58:30] FBI. I No offense. I think you're [00:58:32] letting them off a little lightly here. [00:58:34] Like, so here you have the FBI putting [00:58:36] automatic weapons into our communities. [00:58:37] Are we for that? I'm not. But how do you [00:58:41] how do you respond to that? Like, if you [00:58:42] called FBI, hey, they just stole your [00:58:44] machine guns. You guys should get on [00:58:45] this. Wake up, son. [00:58:48] >> Yeah. So, I I I immediately went to the [00:58:50] FBI and informed them as to what [00:58:52] happened because like I'm not even sure [00:58:53] they would have known about it [00:58:55] immediately. I mean, there were no like [00:58:57] I'm the only one that got footage of the [00:58:59] guy that stole it. And I mean, he was a [00:59:01] little bit I guess I'm going [00:59:02] to say, because he like took his mask [00:59:04] down, and you could say he had Latin [00:59:06] Kings tattoos all over him. So, I mean, [00:59:07] it was pretty easy to find the guy, and [00:59:10] they found him by the next morning. But, [00:59:12] yeah, I I I would say like the fact that [00:59:14] that we're that federal law enforcement [00:59:16] feels like they're in a position where [00:59:17] they just can't go back in and uh guard [00:59:22] these weapons that were in the the back [00:59:24] of the vehicle. Yeah, that was [00:59:25] definitely concerning to me. I cannot [00:59:27] excuse that in any way, shape, or form. [00:59:29] Uh I know one the the weapons talker [00:59:31] that was pulled out with a a tow strap [00:59:33] after two hours. And that's another [00:59:34] thing, Tucker. It was two hours that [00:59:36] this was going on and nobody was doing [00:59:37] anything about it. Uh uh the the one one [00:59:41] weapons locker was empty uh to the [00:59:44] dismay of the riers that had spent so [00:59:46] long trying to get into it. Uh but you [00:59:49] know, I I I I I really want to stress [00:59:51] the fact that these guys need more [00:59:53] support. They they need uh they need [00:59:56] more assets on the ground to protect [00:59:57] them while they're running operations, [00:59:59] right? I mean, these FBI agents that are [01:00:02] uh out there like that FBI agents, DHS [01:00:05] agents, they're not trained in crowd [01:00:07] control, right? That's not their not [01:00:09] their job. But there are federal [01:00:11] resources to handle that. And we're not [01:00:14] using them. We're putting them on [01:00:15] standby. And I'm sorry like I I I I'm a [01:00:17] big supporter of the Trump [01:00:18] administration. I think they're doing a [01:00:19] fantastic job, but I'm a little worried [01:00:22] that we're sleeping on what's actually [01:00:24] going on in Minneapolis because some [01:00:26] polls came out saying that, oh well, [01:00:29] some people don't approve of what's [01:00:31] going on with ICE operations. And so, [01:00:33] like, the administration is a little bit [01:00:35] fearful, I think I'll say, of deploying [01:00:39] uh troops into the streets to restore [01:00:42] order because they don't like the poll [01:00:44] numbers that are coming out. And you [01:00:45] know what? 80 million people voted for [01:00:48] this to happen, right? I personally [01:00:50] think maybe those poll numbers, if [01:00:52] they're even real, some of the reason [01:00:54] that people say they're not approving of [01:00:56] the the job that ICE is doing is because [01:00:58] they're not deporting enough people. [01:01:00] >> Well, of course. [01:01:01] >> Right. You you you go and talk to people [01:01:03] in middle America. I'm from Kentucky [01:01:05] originally, Tucker. Right. So, I I I [01:01:07] gauge my dad who's an HVAC technician [01:01:08] down there and all his friends. like I [01:01:10] try to get their opinion on just people [01:01:11] that are just normal uh everyday [01:01:14] bluecollar people and they're all saying [01:01:16] the same thing like they're not seeing [01:01:18] any arrests. Uh they're not seeing uh [01:01:20] the deportations that they were asking [01:01:23] for. So if the poll numbers are dropping [01:01:25] that has a lot to do with it not because [01:01:27] people think that I being too [01:01:28] aggressive. So I think those numbers are [01:01:30] being misinterpreted. [01:01:32] I mean, I've spent I'm not attacking [01:01:34] anyone, but the last three weeks hearing [01:01:35] how we have the greatest military in [01:01:36] America, which I mean, in the world, [01:01:39] which, you know, sounds right, we're all [01:01:41] grateful, [01:01:43] but like if the Madura raid had been [01:01:46] this pathetic, it would be a national [01:01:48] shame. [01:01:50] Where are these people who are so [01:01:52] skilled at taking out foreign leaders [01:01:55] in our country? Like, one of our great [01:01:59] cities is collapsing. They're stealing [01:02:02] automatic weapons from federal agents [01:02:03] and no one's doing anything about it. [01:02:05] Like, where are the people? We pay $1.5 [01:02:09] billion dollars a year to maintain this [01:02:12] empire. Where are they when we need them [01:02:14] here? [01:02:17] >> Trillion. [01:02:17] >> Yeah, I think you meant 1.5 trillion, [01:02:19] Tucker. [01:02:19] >> Trillion. Sorry, I'm [laughter] [01:02:21] >> Which is a lot. [01:02:22] >> I can barely even pronounce the words, [01:02:24] Nick. [01:02:25] >> [laughter] [01:02:26] >> It's it's a it's it's so much money and [01:02:28] you're like, "Okay, well," and I I I [01:02:31] tweeted about this the other day where I [01:02:33] said, you know, because people are like, [01:02:34] "Oh, well, why aren't you covering [01:02:35] what's happening IN IRAN?" BECAUSE I [01:02:36] DON'T CARE. I DON'T CARE. We have a huge [01:02:39] American city that's under siege [01:02:41] actively. I'm boots on the ground being [01:02:44] attacked every single day uh by these [01:02:46] people in the streets and so are ICE [01:02:48] agents. Like you saw uh today even [01:02:50] Bovino the border patrol commander is [01:02:53] out there uh just trying to go get [01:02:55] snacks at the speedway and they they [01:02:57] can't get out of the parking lot with [01:02:58] his team because there are 20 or 30 [01:03:00] vehicles literally 20 or 30 following [01:03:03] him around boxing them in and and coming [01:03:06] up and assaulting them and so they have [01:03:07] to use tear gas to get out of parking [01:03:09] lots. Like we need the manpower. I mean [01:03:12] how many tens of thousands of active [01:03:14] duty troops do we have? Why do we need [01:03:16] to worry about Iran right now? Why do we [01:03:18] have to worry about any other country in [01:03:20] the world besides right here? I don't [01:03:23] care about the politics anymore. I don't [01:03:25] care if, you know, the the the the left [01:03:27] and the Democrat party are going to be [01:03:28] like, "Oh my goodness, this is fascism [01:03:30] by enforcing federal law is fascism." I [01:03:34] I don't care about that. I'm watching it [01:03:35] in real time. I'm watching these guys [01:03:38] that go out there every single day and [01:03:40] put their lives on the line to deport [01:03:43] these uh child rapists and and and [01:03:45] literal murderers, people with uh murder [01:03:48] warrants out of foreign countries that [01:03:50] were just letting out into the streets [01:03:52] out here. They need the support. They're [01:03:54] on a a mission here and we're not giving [01:03:57] it to them. I know we put 1500 active [01:04:00] duty troops uh from Alaska on standby [01:04:04] and I believe another thousand of [01:04:05] military police in North Carolina on [01:04:08] standby as well for the Pentagon. They [01:04:11] haven't been deployed yet. So my [01:04:13] question is what are we waiting for? [01:04:15] What has to happen before we can deploy [01:04:18] them? Does an ICE agent need to be [01:04:19] killed? Does a journalist need to be [01:04:21] killed? What needs to happen? What what [01:04:23] are we waiting on? It's a war zone out [01:04:25] there every single day. [01:04:28] La last question would I mean ICE is [01:04:31] there, FBI is there, military is not [01:04:34] there. They're worried about Iran [01:04:36] apparently. Um so important Iran so [01:04:38] important. Um what about local police? I [01:04:41] mean Minneapolis is a major city. [01:04:44] Minneapolis St. Paul [01:04:47] why aren't they restoring order? Like [01:04:49] have you seen local police respond to [01:04:51] the riers? [01:04:54] >> No. A and so that's one of the biggest [01:04:56] issues that we see up here. First of [01:04:57] all, the reason that I'm doing this in [01:04:58] front of a plain gray background is [01:05:00] because for hits that are longer than 5 [01:05:02] minutes that are live, I have to do them [01:05:04] somewhere where nobody can find me [01:05:06] because they will track me down and if I [01:05:08] call the police, nothing will be done [01:05:10] about it. I've written them off, they're [01:05:11] totally useless and and and that's it. [01:05:13] They're done. uh when when it comes to [01:05:17] uh what I was covering just for example [01:05:18] in Louisiana, you have Governor Jeff [01:05:20] Landry down there that is you know [01:05:22] supporting the ICE operations that are [01:05:24] happening down there in New Orleans uh [01:05:26] Shreveport all the surrounding area like [01:05:29] across the entire state of Louisiana. [01:05:31] And so they have state troopers with [01:05:33] them. And those state troopers, I was [01:05:36] not able to tail Bino uh when I was [01:05:40] trying to cover the uh the deportations [01:05:42] down there because they would pull me [01:05:45] over for, you know, turning right on red [01:05:48] without stopping or something behind the [01:05:50] the police vehicles, right? But in [01:05:52] Minneapolis, St. Paul and the [01:05:55] surrounding area, the police have been [01:05:58] uh they have been directed and ordered [01:06:01] not to enforce any traffic laws or uh or [01:06:05] or crimes that are committed in the [01:06:08] presence of ICE or Border Patrol because [01:06:10] they want these people running red [01:06:13] lights at 80 miles an hour. It's so [01:06:15] brazen now that they're live streaming [01:06:18] these crimes that they're committing [01:06:19] where they're f they don't have lights [01:06:21] and sirens or anything. these these uh [01:06:23] activists that are posing as [01:06:24] journalists. They wear press on their [01:06:25] chest because you know that that all all [01:06:27] of a sudden exempts them from laws [01:06:30] apparently. They're not real press. [01:06:32] They're activists and and they're like [01:06:34] passing buses, school buses around blind [01:06:37] corners at 80 mph in residential [01:06:39] neighborhoods blowing through red lights [01:06:41] and stuff, but police are being told not [01:06:44] to pull them over, not to interfere with [01:06:47] the activists at all. some I'm surprised [01:06:49] nobody's been killed by it yet, but if [01:06:52] if they were just to do that, if they [01:06:53] were just to enforce traffic laws, then [01:06:55] you wouldn't get 20 to 30 cars uh [01:06:58] following and impeding ICE and Border [01:07:00] Patrol all the time. But the problem is [01:07:03] that's what they want. They want them to [01:07:05] be impeded. [01:07:06] >> Is there I mean, is the city are people [01:07:09] acknowledging this is happening? I mean, [01:07:11] is the mayor giving press conferences [01:07:13] about it? What they're going to do to [01:07:14] fix it? Is the governor on television in [01:07:17] Minnesota? like what is this just is [01:07:20] anyone noticing this? [01:07:23] >> Yeah. So, uh they're they're definitely [01:07:24] on TV uh Mayor Mayor Frey and uh and Tim [01:07:29] Waltz, but they're saying exactly what [01:07:31] you would expect them to. They're [01:07:32] talking about if you see ICE, call 911. [01:07:36] You had Chief O'Hara, the Minneapolis [01:07:39] police chief, which I actually I was I [01:07:42] tried to ask him a few questions [01:07:43] downtown the other day when he ordered [01:07:45] all of his men to retreat uh after uh [01:07:48] some riots downtown. They like literally [01:07:50] came in, ran away. I It's all on video, [01:07:53] and they they were fleeing. One guy, one [01:07:55] cop tripped over his squad car because [01:07:56] he was so frazzled by people throwing [01:07:59] snowballs at him. Uh and and this guy uh [01:08:02] you could even see him, this leftist [01:08:04] police chief on TV behind the mayor who [01:08:08] had just said, "Yes, if you see ICE in [01:08:11] the area, you call 911." So the 911 [01:08:14] system is like totally useless at this [01:08:16] point. If you're being stabbed to death [01:08:18] in the street, mugged, whatever, in [01:08:21] downtown Minneapolis, you're probably [01:08:23] not going to get an officer responding [01:08:25] to you anytime soon because the 911 [01:08:27] lines are flooded with people calling [01:08:31] 911 on ICE because that's what they've [01:08:33] been told to do. And so this inquiry by [01:08:35] the DOJ into uh Mayor Frey and uh Tim [01:08:39] Waltz is totally fair where they are [01:08:42] conspiring to obstruct ICE operations. [01:08:45] And you know how many innocent people [01:08:47] have suffered because of that at this [01:08:50] point over the past 3 weeks that this [01:08:51] has been going on. But Tucker, you go [01:08:53] outside of the Minneapolis St. Paul [01:08:56] area, the local jurisdictions there are [01:08:59] more than willing to work with ICE. [01:09:01] That's why you're not seeing uh [01:09:04] largecale like clashes in the streets [01:09:07] and stuff because they're able to just [01:09:08] go to the jails when these illegals are [01:09:11] arrested by local sheriff's departments [01:09:13] and stuff and they're able to pick them [01:09:15] up and that's it. And then they're [01:09:17] deported there. There's no need for [01:09:19] these large-scale clashes. And uh and [01:09:22] the the reason that it has to be done is [01:09:24] because the federal government cannot [01:09:25] back down and just not enforce uh [01:09:28] federal immigration law because Mayor [01:09:31] Frey and Tim Waltz don't want to lose a [01:09:33] huge portion of their voter base when a [01:09:36] bunch of Somali fraudsters end up being [01:09:38] denaturalized and and deported. [01:09:40] >> Yeah. I mean, the country will will fall [01:09:41] apart. We'll have civil war if this [01:09:43] continues. By the way, it's January [01:09:45] 21st. Imagine June 20. Imagine warm [01:09:48] weather in one of the coldest cities in [01:09:50] America. [01:09:51] >> Nick, thank you so much for your bravery [01:09:53] and for telling us all that. And that [01:09:55] was [01:09:56] >> I'm hard to shock. That shocked me. [01:09:58] Thank and Godspeed. [01:10:00] >> I don't have to make anything up, [01:10:01] Tucker. It's all on video. So, not not [01:10:04] uh not not exaggerating here, but I [01:10:05] appreciate you highlighting the story. [01:10:07] >> Oh, we're grateful, too. Thank you. [01:10:10] So, we played you that footage of the [01:10:13] protesters attacking people in church [01:10:15] for being white and Christian. [01:10:17] um that was in St. Paul, I think, City's [01:10:20] Church in St. Paul, Minnesota. Joe [01:10:22] Riggnney is I I one of the founders of [01:10:25] that church, I believe, and I hope he'll [01:10:26] pardon me if I've mangled any of his [01:10:28] bio, but he joins us uh now. Joe, thanks [01:10:31] so much for doing this. Um tell us about [01:10:35] what happened at that church. [01:10:38] >> Yeah, so that's my former church. I was [01:10:40] a planting pastor at the church. I'm no [01:10:42] longer there. I live in Idaho now uh for [01:10:44] the last three years, but I was in [01:10:45] Minnesota for 18 years, including [01:10:47] through u 2020 and all of the um the [01:10:51] riots during that year. But um yeah, [01:10:53] what what happened was is during a [01:10:55] service um normal Christian worship [01:10:57] service of a normal evangelical church [01:11:00] um an organized, planned, and [01:11:03] coordinated group of people entered the [01:11:05] church during its second service. It was [01:11:07] the first Sunday they'd had a second [01:11:09] service. the church was growing and so [01:11:10] they had a second service added one and [01:11:12] they so they'd already had one the [01:11:13] preacher had preached a message from the [01:11:15] gospel of John chapter 13 called uh love [01:11:18] one another and as they were in the [01:11:21] middle of the second service a number of [01:11:23] people who had been there for the first [01:11:25] half of the service um stood up and [01:11:27] began moving towards the front um doing [01:11:30] what your video showed chanting uh [01:11:33] various slogans uh Renee good get out [01:11:37] Ice um all of those sort of things and [01:11:39] eventually basically commandeered the [01:11:41] building yelling uh and screaming at the [01:11:44] parishioners. Um a number of whom fled [01:11:46] very quickly because in this day and age [01:11:49] you don't know if it's a um if this is [01:11:52] going to be an active shooting [01:11:52] situation, right? Like this is this is [01:11:54] the sort of thing that happens these [01:11:56] days. And uh so people were trying to [01:11:58] get the kids, you know, get the kids [01:11:59] out, get the kids safe. And uh you saw [01:12:02] my friend um Jonathan Pastor Jonathan [01:12:05] Parnell uh standing there saying shame [01:12:07] on you to these activists, these [01:12:09] agitators um and then being accosted by [01:12:12] Don Lemon who is embedded with the group [01:12:15] and coordinating with them uh and being [01:12:17] heranged. Isn't this a great example of [01:12:19] constitutional liberty? Don't these [01:12:20] people have a right to uh you know [01:12:23] assemble and and free speech uh as they [01:12:26] are disrupting a Christian worship [01:12:28] service on a Sunday morning? So, it was [01:12:30] shocking. I'm I'm across the country now [01:12:33] uh but watching my friends and former [01:12:35] congregants uh be attacked in this way. [01:12:39] Um simply uh you know because these [01:12:42] activists um are going to escalate from [01:12:44] beyond what they've already been doing [01:12:46] as your previous guest uh elaborated on. [01:12:49] >> It's shocking but it's it's predictable [01:12:51] because all revolutions begin with [01:12:53] killing the Christians. um always [01:12:56] I wonder is there just is there a like [01:13:00] justification for this to go in and [01:13:02] scream at kids in a church service [01:13:05] during a sermon on love one another? I [01:13:07] mean what do you think is actually going [01:13:08] on here? [01:13:09] >> Uh well the presenting cause is that one [01:13:11] of the lay pastors at the church um [01:13:14] works for ICE. Um he's a law enforcement [01:13:16] officer, has been for 20s something [01:13:19] years. Um he's a good man. Um he's a [01:13:21] close friend of mine. I'm not even going [01:13:22] to say his name because I don't want any [01:13:24] more harassment for him and his family. [01:13:27] Um but uh but they they had doxed him, [01:13:31] discovered who he was, where he went to [01:13:32] church, and decided to make an example. [01:13:35] Uh and so that was the presenting cause. [01:13:38] But I think there's also um an element [01:13:39] of, as you said, um testing the [01:13:41] boundaries. How far can we go? how how [01:13:43] far can we escalate these things um in [01:13:46] order to to intimidate silence um people [01:13:50] into doing what we want? Um and so it's [01:13:52] not enough now to harass the harass um [01:13:55] law enforcement officers while they [01:13:56] carry out their duties. Um we're now [01:13:58] going to follow them to their homes. [01:13:59] We're going to follow them to their [01:14:00] churches. We're going to intimidate [01:14:02] their friends. We're going to frighten [01:14:03] their children. um until um I guess they [01:14:07] think um the the effect of that would be [01:14:09] that the administration will seek cease [01:14:11] trying to enforce its immigration laws [01:14:12] or maybe people will stop working for [01:14:14] ICE. I don't I don't know what the [01:14:15] endgame is. Um but I expect if it's not [01:14:18] dealt with in a in a swift and just [01:14:21] manner to say this is unacceptable, [01:14:24] there are ways that you can protest the [01:14:25] government. This is America. Um but [01:14:27] terrorizing people in a church is beyond [01:14:31] the bounds and and uh it's been [01:14:34] disappointing thus far. Um it's been [01:14:36] encouraging on the part of the federal [01:14:38] administration. I think the you know [01:14:40] various people of the administration are [01:14:42] involved and and seeking to to do [01:14:44] something about it, arrest some people. [01:14:46] Um but I think the local officials uh [01:14:48] the governor, the uh mayors um are slow, [01:14:52] you know, slowplaying it. They they have [01:14:54] no interest in doing it. In fact, I I [01:14:56] saw one uh uh Democratic legislator say [01:14:59] this will continue. This sort of thing [01:15:01] is essential to what we're doing and it [01:15:03] will continue. So promising this is is [01:15:05] actually the trans uh trans legislator [01:15:08] in uh in the Twin City or in the Twin [01:15:10] Cities um who said this is essential and [01:15:12] it must continue which is a shocking [01:15:13] thing um after you know um just last [01:15:17] year a Catholic school was attacked um [01:15:22] by a trans shooter. And so you see the [01:15:25] escalating violence on the left um of [01:15:28] normal Christian people. And I just want [01:15:29] to I think I want to underscore that [01:15:30] piece of it. Um these are not these are [01:15:33] not political activists. This is not a [01:15:35] political church. These are normal [01:15:39] bibleelving evangelicals. The the [01:15:42] mission of the church, the way that they [01:15:43] talk um since the beginning when we [01:15:45] planted the church and and they've [01:15:47] continued this is real basic. They they [01:15:49] have a number of very clear priorities [01:15:51] what they care about. And if you asked [01:15:53] any of them, they would say, "We're here [01:15:55] because we want to worship Jesus. He's [01:15:57] the most he's real. Jesus is real and [01:16:00] he's the most important person in the [01:16:02] universe. He's the only hope of the [01:16:04] world. There's salvation in no one [01:16:05] else." They are going to want to tell [01:16:06] you that. And then they're going to say, [01:16:07] "We want to love each other as [01:16:08] Christians." And then they're going to [01:16:10] say, "And we're here to seek the good of [01:16:11] these cities. We've not given up on [01:16:13] these cities." I in fact, I think the [01:16:15] pastor said that in the sermon in his [01:16:16] first service. Said, "We're here in the [01:16:18] midst of this chaos." And he says, 'But [01:16:20] we're not giving up on the Twin Cities. [01:16:22] We're here because we want to love our [01:16:23] neighbors. We want to we want to care [01:16:25] for those. We want to give them the hope [01:16:26] of the gospel, offer them freedom from [01:16:29] sin and death, and that's what they're [01:16:31] there for. And instead, this political [01:16:33] chaos intrudes in the middle of a [01:16:35] worship service uh and disrupt it. And [01:16:38] it was absolutely, as as my friend said, [01:16:40] he said, "It's absolutely shameful. It's [01:16:42] absolutely shameful." And then [01:16:43] immediately, I appreciate this about him [01:16:44] so much. I said, "This is shameful, and [01:16:47] we're here about Jesus." He wanted to [01:16:48] make sure we're going to he's going to [01:16:49] get that in because because that's what [01:16:50] he cares about. That's what he's all [01:16:52] about. [01:16:52] >> But and I don't think we should make a [01:16:54] mistake. Jesus was the target. It's not [01:16:56] that they're an ICE agent who they could [01:16:57] have hassled at his house or at his job [01:16:59] or whatever. The target was Jesus. It [01:17:01] was I'm sure you've seen the famous [01:17:03] photograph from the Spanish Civil War, [01:17:05] the opening months of the Spanish Civil [01:17:07] War where the communist forces surround [01:17:09] a statue of Jesus and open fire on it. A [01:17:12] statue [01:17:14] because they were more straightforward [01:17:16] then. like that's the enemy. And I I do [01:17:19] think it puts it in the right frame, [01:17:21] >> right? Yeah, it is. It is remarkable. I [01:17:24] think uh in in this in this moment um as [01:17:27] we as we're talking um there is a deep [01:17:30] sickness in our culture. I think we all [01:17:32] feel it. Um pressure is high, tensions [01:17:34] are high. Um and and it is um it is a [01:17:38] spirit is a spiritual in nature. And I [01:17:41] think that's one of the things I'm I'm a [01:17:42] pastor. I'm still a pastor just in a [01:17:44] different state. And um Jesus really is [01:17:47] the only hope for this. Like there is no [01:17:48] way out and and what's needed in the [01:17:51] moment is forgiveness of sins and and [01:17:54] calling people to repent of it, right? [01:17:56] Like the reason that this this bubbles [01:17:58] up is because sin fers and fers and fers [01:18:01] and it's encouraged by in this case [01:18:04] government officials who are fostering [01:18:05] lawlessness, encouraging this kind of [01:18:08] conduct rather than being as the Bible [01:18:09] says they ought to be uh a terror to [01:18:12] evil conduct. That's what when the when [01:18:14] God lays down what should the government [01:18:16] do? What's their job? And it's they [01:18:18] should be a terror to evil conduct. They [01:18:20] should execute God's wrath on the [01:18:22] wrongdoers. Um they should reward the [01:18:24] righteous. They should encourage good [01:18:26] people. And they should punish bad [01:18:27] people. That's their just basic job. And [01:18:29] in this circumstance, they're actually [01:18:31] doing the opposite. They're terrorizing [01:18:33] normal law-abiding citizens. And then [01:18:36] they're encouraging the lawless and and [01:18:37] the lawb breakakers. And because of [01:18:39] that, it's bubbling up. It's bubbling [01:18:41] over and um and it's tragic. It it [01:18:44] really is tragic. And the only way out [01:18:45] is for people to turn from their sins [01:18:47] and to turn back to Christ. That's [01:18:48] that's the only hope that any of us this [01:18:50] nation has. That's the only hope for any [01:18:52] of us. [01:18:53] >> It's it's literally inverted. The [01:18:54] government encourages evil absess [01:18:58] lawlessness and punishes decency and [01:19:00] good. So what is the right Christian [01:19:04] reaction to this? [01:19:07] >> Yeah, I've been thinking a lot about [01:19:09] that. not just because of what happened [01:19:10] over the weekend um but because of the [01:19:13] last few years as um you know um last [01:19:17] fall Charlie Kirk was assassinated [01:19:20] and um you know it's actually [01:19:22] interesting uh years ago when we planted [01:19:24] the church the first sermon series that [01:19:26] we did uh was on the book of Acts you [01:19:29] know you're planting a new church and so [01:19:30] here's the planting of the church right [01:19:32] and so we're preaching through the book [01:19:33] of Acts and you begin to notice um these [01:19:35] these patterns and you just notice that [01:19:38] the early church leaders were just [01:19:39] regularly colliding with the governing [01:19:42] of authorities, right? So, they're [01:19:44] they're they're getting they're getting [01:19:45] hauled in. They're healing people. [01:19:46] They're blessing people. Um they're [01:19:48] they're sharing the gospel. They're [01:19:49] announcing Jesus is is risen from the [01:19:51] dead. This is great news, everybody. [01:19:52] He's he's he is the savior of the world. [01:19:55] And they're announcing this and and [01:19:57] they're met with opposition and it kind [01:19:58] of escalates and you see this [01:20:00] escalating. At first, the leaders are [01:20:02] kind of annoyed by it. They're like, [01:20:03] "What are who are these guys? Why are [01:20:05] they what are they doing? What are they [01:20:06] saying?" And so, they haul them in for [01:20:07] questioning. What are you guys talking [01:20:08] about? And they're like, "Hey, no other [01:20:10] name among heaven. Jesus. He's it's him. [01:20:13] He he rose from the dead. You killed [01:20:14] him. You guys killed him, but he rose [01:20:16] from the dead." And then they they say, [01:20:18] "All right, don't do that anymore. Stop [01:20:20] talking about that." And they leave. And [01:20:22] uh and then they keep preaching. They go [01:20:24] out and they pray. They say, "Lord, you [01:20:26] look upon their threats and help us to [01:20:28] continue to speak the word with [01:20:29] boldness." And they do. God answers that [01:20:31] prayer. They speak with boldness. They [01:20:33] preach the word. And then they get [01:20:34] hauled back in. And this time they say, [01:20:36] "Hey, look, we already told you guys [01:20:37] once. Knock this off." And then they [01:20:39] beat them. So now it's now it's a it's [01:20:41] not just a warning, it's a violent [01:20:42] warning. And and now the the leaders are [01:20:44] a little bit jealous because people are [01:20:46] flocking to this new Christian movement, [01:20:49] right? And then it finally bubbles over [01:20:52] um in the stoning of Steven, right? [01:20:54] Steven is hauled before them false [01:20:56] charges. Um they lie about him. They [01:20:58] slander him. And then they say and then [01:21:01] he he says he looks up into heaven. He [01:21:03] says, "I see Jesus. I Jesus is risen and [01:21:05] he's reigning and he condemns the [01:21:07] wickedness around him. You guys are all [01:21:08] you've turned aside from your God. [01:21:10] You've abandoned him. You've killed the [01:21:11] righteous one. You've murdered him. And [01:21:13] then they rush upon them and they stone [01:21:14] him to death. And so when you look at [01:21:16] that kind of escalation in Jerusalem [01:21:20] 2,000 years ago and then I'm sitting [01:21:22] here reading the newspaper and going um [01:21:26] history does not repeat itself, but it [01:21:28] does rhyme. And when you think about the [01:21:31] last 20 years and the escalating [01:21:33] collisions we've seen in our country, [01:21:34] you know, about say sec sex sexuality um [01:21:37] and people being harassed just because [01:21:38] they won't bake a cake uh or because [01:21:40] they won't, you know, do flowers for a [01:21:42] gay wedding. And you see that kind of [01:21:44] escalating collision as Christians just [01:21:46] try to live faithfully, faithful lives. [01:21:47] And then it bubbled over and in the fall [01:21:50] we we saw we found an American Steven [01:21:52] essentially um in in Charlie Kirk. Like [01:21:55] that's that's what happened as the left [01:21:58] killed him. And and then so you're so I [01:22:01] read that and I go, "Okay, well, what [01:22:02] should we expect next?" If that's if the [01:22:03] history's rhyming, what comes next in [01:22:06] the story and if you read the book of [01:22:08] Acts, right after Steven is stoned, it [01:22:10] says a general persecution breaks out [01:22:11] against the Christians. [01:22:13] >> That there's that like the the the [01:22:15] lawlessness spreads and now it doesn't [01:22:16] matter if you're a leader or not. It [01:22:18] doesn't matter if you're prominent or [01:22:19] not. You could just be what? Normal [01:22:21] people going to church on a Sunday in an [01:22:24] American town and now you're going to be [01:22:26] harassed and intimidated. And so this is [01:22:28] precisely on Q. And I think and I'm [01:22:31] encouraged by what the Bible tells us to [01:22:34] do in that case because what those [01:22:35] people did after that persecution broke [01:22:38] out is they were driven out of their [01:22:39] homes and they didn't go around moping [01:22:42] and sulking and whining about um oh woe [01:22:45] is me. How could this happen? I really [01:22:47] wish that Charlie Kirk wouldn't have [01:22:48] said that or whatever. They you Stephen [01:22:50] should have you know kept his mouth [01:22:51] shut. Instead it says they went about [01:22:53] preaching the gospel. That's what they [01:22:56] did. In other words, they imitated the [01:22:58] boldness of their leaders who had been [01:23:01] persecuted and they went about and and [01:23:03] as a result uh there was a revival. The [01:23:05] gospel goes to the Samaritans and lots [01:23:08] of lots of people are are turning from [01:23:10] their sins and being saved and [01:23:12] immediately after that it this is what's [01:23:14] most remarkable in the story. changed [01:23:15] the history of the world is the Apostle [01:23:18] Paul who'd been approving all of that, [01:23:20] who'd been sanctioning it and hauling [01:23:22] people to jail and but as a Pharisee, as [01:23:24] an opponent of of the church, um God [01:23:28] knocks him off his horse. Just Jesus, he [01:23:30] he finds out Jesus is in fact real and [01:23:32] the entire, you know, history of the [01:23:34] world is different because now the [01:23:36] greatest evangelist in history has come [01:23:39] to Christ. And so I'm I see this. I see [01:23:42] the tensions and yet um God's behind it [01:23:45] all. He's he's sovereign. He rules. He [01:23:47] reigns. He Jesus is real. And he is [01:23:49] working in this for the good of his [01:23:51] people and for the good of the world and [01:23:52] the good of this nation. And so my [01:23:55] encouragement to Christians would be to [01:23:56] imitate the early church to gather [01:24:00] together in worship on Sundays, whether [01:24:02] they're going to harass you or not, and [01:24:04] to pray and to say, "Lord, look upon [01:24:06] their threats. Look what they're saying. [01:24:08] Look at their lies." and fill us with [01:24:10] your Holy Spirit. And grant us to preach [01:24:12] the word of God, all of it. Whole [01:24:14] counsel of God, courage, clarity about [01:24:17] Jesus, about sin. Give us that ability [01:24:20] with joy in the midst of this chaos. [01:24:23] Give us that. That's what we want, Lord. [01:24:25] And I believe just as God answered that [01:24:27] prayer in the first century, he'll [01:24:29] answer that prayer in the 21st. [01:24:32] >> So, this is I mean, this is the [01:24:33] spiritual war that Jesus promises that [01:24:35] we've seen for thousands of years. We [01:24:39] know how it ends, but in the meantime, [01:24:41] we shouldn't be surprised and remain [01:24:44] brave and bold. Is that a fair summary? [01:24:47] >> Correct. Yeah. And joyful. I think I [01:24:49] think that's [01:24:50] >> Thank you. [01:24:50] >> enjoy. Like I think that it's it's [01:24:52] important because I think Christians do [01:24:53] have a tendency sometimes when things go [01:24:55] like this um to get um overly serious or [01:25:00] or serious in the wrong way. I guess it [01:25:02] can become intense and um and instead to [01:25:05] go like, "Well, is is God like?" So, I I [01:25:07] was watching it and one reaction I did [01:25:09] have was um from Psalm 2 um he who sits [01:25:12] in heaven laughs, right? Like what does [01:25:15] God look at when the nations rage and [01:25:16] they and they rage against his people [01:25:18] and they rage against um Christ? What's [01:25:20] God's reaction? He who sits in heaven [01:25:22] laughs. He's he's not threatened by [01:25:24] this. He's not uh scrambling. God's not [01:25:26] going get, you know, get somebody on the [01:25:28] phone. He's not worried about that. Um [01:25:30] instead, he's going, "This is my [01:25:31] sovereign hand and plan working out for [01:25:33] the good of my people and the good of [01:25:34] the world. Um, I am going to bring glory [01:25:36] to myself through this this horrific [01:25:38] stuff. Now, that doesn't mean for me as [01:25:40] a Christian. Do I want to see justice [01:25:42] done now as well? Absolutely. It's [01:25:44] because Jesus is real that governing [01:25:46] authorities ought to bear the sword [01:25:48] faithfully. They ought to punish lawb [01:25:50] breakakers because someday Tim Walls and [01:25:52] Mayor Jacob Fry are going to stand [01:25:54] before God and they're going to answer [01:25:56] for it just like I will and just like [01:25:58] you will. [01:25:58] >> Yes. [01:25:58] >> Right. Everybody listening to this is [01:26:00] going to stand before God. Like that's [01:26:01] what's going to happen and you're going [01:26:03] to give an account. And so part of what [01:26:05] they're going to account for is, hey, [01:26:07] when when Minneapolis was in chaos, why [01:26:10] were you stoking it? Like why wh what [01:26:13] was that about? Like the the they're [01:26:14] going to like some of these videos that [01:26:16] we're seeing of the chaos being inflamed [01:26:18] and encouraged uh by the left are going [01:26:21] to be brought forward as evidence of [01:26:23] their hatred of God's people, of uh of [01:26:27] Christ. And uh and it's remarkable um to [01:26:30] think about like it's it is a sobering [01:26:32] thing, but as Christians, it ought to [01:26:34] give us confidence. It's what gives us a [01:26:35] joy in the midst of the suffering when [01:26:37] they when they plunder, when they [01:26:38] attack. Um there's a deep and settled [01:26:40] joy because Tim Walls doesn't run the [01:26:43] universe. Thank God. Jake Fry doesn't. [01:26:46] President Trump doesn't for that matter. [01:26:47] Like no human being runs the universe. [01:26:50] Well, one does. Um the God man, Jesus [01:26:52] Christ, he runs the universe. [01:26:55] So, if I'm hearing this right, chaos [01:26:58] just by itself is a marker of evil. [01:27:01] Absolutely. Absolutely. It's Christ or [01:27:02] chaos. Those are the two options. Like [01:27:04] those are like the basic options in [01:27:06] America today. It's Christ or chaos. You [01:27:09] either get you either get the decay, the [01:27:12] disorder, the lawlessness, or we turn to [01:27:14] Jesus and he puts us everything back [01:27:16] together. Like he puts you back together [01:27:18] individually. Like you you're in you get [01:27:20] forgiven for your sins and you get [01:27:23] sanctified. You get made holy. You get [01:27:24] healed and restored. And then he puts [01:27:26] together our families, the brokenness [01:27:28] there. He puts together our communities. [01:27:30] He puts together our nation. Um, you [01:27:32] know, listening to your monologue at the [01:27:33] at the front of the uh the hour, it just [01:27:35] it just struck me. You're describing [01:27:37] sort of the uh the bulcanization of the [01:27:39] United States. Yes. And this mass [01:27:41] demographic transformation. U I think [01:27:44] that's a subject that many evangelicals [01:27:46] are uncomfortable with. Quite honestly, [01:27:47] having been an evangelical my whole [01:27:49] life, and it's it's uncomfortable for [01:27:50] them to even think about or talk about. [01:27:53] Um, and but thinking about it, it's like [01:27:55] what's the hope then? And I think the [01:27:57] only hope is well everybody needs to [01:27:59] turn to Jesus and then we can sort it [01:28:00] out. But if we don't turn to Jesus, [01:28:02] we're just going to fight and we're [01:28:02] going to devour each other because [01:28:04] that's what human being apart from [01:28:05] Christ. That's what human beings do. We [01:28:07] we're envy, rivalry, pride, selfish [01:28:10] ambition. That's human nature in its [01:28:13] sort of sinful state. And so the only [01:28:16] hope is we got to turn away from that. [01:28:17] And then, okay, now we've got millions [01:28:19] of people from different ethnic groups [01:28:21] and we've got all these things. How are [01:28:23] we going to sort it out? Well, Jesus has [01:28:24] to be at the center of that or it won't [01:28:26] happen. It can't happen. All you're [01:28:28] going to get is more of this violence. [01:28:29] Like, that's the basic the basic hope [01:28:32] >> that is tribalism is a product of [01:28:35] nature. It's the default setting in [01:28:37] people. It inevitably becomes violent. [01:28:40] It's a masochistic dynamic always and [01:28:44] someone uh is on the wrong end of it. [01:28:46] And the only way to avoid that is Jesus. [01:28:49] That that's my view. [01:28:51] >> That's absolutely true. It's absolutely [01:28:52] true. And and it's the solution to the [01:28:54] kind of mob violence that we see, right? [01:28:56] Uh people always look for scapegoats. [01:28:59] They they want to find someone to blame [01:29:01] for all their problems. And um because [01:29:03] they have problems and they don't want [01:29:04] if they if they can't admit that like [01:29:06] the biggest problem in the universe is [01:29:07] me, like my biggest problem is me, [01:29:10] right? Like I think I think I heard [01:29:12] someone say that one time. Uh, and my [01:29:15] biggest problem is me. And if they can't [01:29:17] admit that, then they're going to start [01:29:18] blaming everybody. And eventually they [01:29:20] get enough people sharing their [01:29:21] grievance. Um, that they're going to go [01:29:23] take it out. And we saw that on Sunday. [01:29:26] And so the only hope is own it. [01:29:28] Acknowledge like I'm the problem and God [01:29:31] still loves me. He sent Jesus to die for [01:29:33] my sins for goodness sake. And so he's [01:29:34] welcoming me back. Like I you can be the [01:29:36] prodigal. And I and I just again as a [01:29:38] pastor, thank you for having me on. And [01:29:39] I just want to say to the people [01:29:41] listening, like if you're the prodigal, [01:29:42] if you're running away, whether you're a [01:29:44] leftist or right-wing or, you know, [01:29:46] non-committal or whatever, I don't care. [01:29:48] Like, if you're the prodigal running [01:29:49] away from God, like, you can come home. [01:29:52] Like, he left the light on. He's got a [01:29:53] really nice robe. He'll give you the [01:29:55] ring. He'll kill the fatted calf. He'll [01:29:56] throw a big party because he loves you. [01:29:58] So, you can just come back. You don't [01:30:00] have to keep running. And if everybody [01:30:02] would do that, like if God would be [01:30:04] gracious to this nation and people would [01:30:06] turn back to Christ, turn and I mean [01:30:08] turn back to Christ, [01:30:11] then we could then we could talk then [01:30:12] the political stuff, it wouldn't work [01:30:13] itself out. There'd still be bumps and [01:30:15] we'd still have to work it out, but we'd [01:30:16] have a foundation to build on. And so [01:30:18] that really is the basic um the basic [01:30:22] choice before us individually, the basic [01:30:24] choice before us as a nation. It's [01:30:26] Christ or it's chaos. There is no third [01:30:29] option. There isn't one. That's all you [01:30:31] got. [01:30:32] >> It's true for every person. Joe [01:30:34] Riggnney, thank you. I really appreciate [01:30:36] uh you coming on and putting that into [01:30:38] perspective and and I appreciate your [01:30:39] wisdom. Thank you. [01:30:41] >> Hey, thanks for having me, Tucker. I [01:30:42] appreciate it. [01:30:42] >> Thanks. [01:30:44] We appreciate you're watching. We'll be [01:30:46] back next Wednesday live.
