Welcome to another Just Informed Talk radio show.
I'm your host, Craig James.
Hope you guys are having a wonderful day.
And boy, is it a big day.
You know, I'm sure a lot of you have been hearing about these tariffs lately.
And everybody's become an economic specialist in their own right, you know, with regard to understanding what's happening in the economy and the broader strategies.
But we're going to do our best here.
To at least get a semblance of an understanding of what's going on here, massive trade war has been declared against China.
And I think it's been long overdue, to be quite honest, at this point.
At this point, you know, a lot of people out there, you see, I see so many people out there who...
Take such a different take, an opinion on all this.
They look at everything so fatalistically, so pessimistically, so negatively, that I understand.
You know, I get it.
I get the demoralization has worked on a lot of people.
A lot of people out there have been demoralized to a point where they think, like Solomon did in Ecclesiastes, you know, it's like everything is futile, you know?
Everything is vanity.
Everything is hopeless.
But the truth is that a part of these policies and these battles that are being fought right now it really is that there is an element to it that should include the battle for hearts and minds.
And I think that many people play into The side that wants you to believe all hope is lost and everything is hopeless and everything is futile.
And I don't choose to play into that.
I look at things fairly objectively, I hope.
I try to, at least.
We all have our biases.
But I do attempt to look at things as objectively as I can to see the good and the bad in all things that sort of helps keep...
And with this trade war, I'm trying to do the same thing.
You know, people, and forgive me if I sound a little nasally, but Colorado allergies, you get the picture.
It's that time of year.
Spring has sprung and something just bloomed that...
My body does not like, so who knows?
I'm sure I'll be fighting this all year.
That's kind of why I like winter, because you don't have to deal with it as much, but I digress.
So, the trade war.
Big, big news happening over the last 24 hours.
So, at 12.01 a.m. Eastern Time, I guess, last night, Trump raised the...
Tariffs imposed on China to what I want to say is 104%.
Or excuse me, no.
China raised tariffs in response to Trump's raising tariffs, a reciprocal tariff on U.S. goods to 84%.
Okay, that's per CNBC.com.
So we'll kind of run you through what has happened here.
China's pushing back against the U.S. By hiking its tariffs that it levies on U.S. imports to more than 80%, tariffs on U.S. goods entering China will raise to 84% from 34% starting April 10th.
The hike comes in response to U.S. tariff increase on China that was raised to 104% that began last night at midnight.
Now, this is a tit-for-tat escalation that we're watching unfold in which you have tariffs which are being used as a way to sort of control economic exploitation.
The U.S. export, let's see, in 2024, the U.S. exported $143 billion worth of goods to China while importing products worth $480 or $38 billion.
So there's obviously a deficit there.
There's an imbalance where one side is obviously exporting more than another.
Trump administration announced a new tariff policy last week.
Warning! That other countries should not retaliate, but some nations, including Japan, have seemed willing to negotiate on tariffs, but China is taking a more hard-line stance,
quickly announcing a counter-tariff.
And what we're seeing happen, and again, take this all with a grain of salt, I'm no economist by any means, and a lot of this stuff is difficult to follow, even if you follow it very closely.
But essentially what seems to be happening here is in order to balance trade to where we aren't having our wealth extracted from us in what are obviously clearly unfair trade practices where China's engaging in all kinds of...
Criminal and nefarious activities from stealing IP to using that IP then to manufacture goods to sell to undercut U.S. manufacturers and exploiting the outsourcing of our manufacturing,
using that as a weapon for holding us hostage, essentially.
A lot of bad things are happening with this trade deal with China.
Trump's kind of stepped up and said, alright, well, here's the deal.
We are going to tariff and do that responsibly in response to what's being done that we see as being unfair.
And I had a clip here of, let's see if I can find it.
This was...
We all know Kevin O'Leary from Shark Tank.
This is how he explained the whole situation on what Trump should do and what he is doing.
Listen to this.
104% tariffs in China are not enough.
I'm advocating 400%.
I do business in China.
They don't play by the rules.
They've been in the WTO for decades.
They have never abided by any of the rules they agreed to when they came in for decades.
They cheat.
They steal.
They steal IP.
I can't litigate in their courts.
They take product, technology, they steal it, they manufacture it, sell it back here.
Never has an administration...
Can Americans withstand 400% tariffs?
What would that look like?
I want Xi on an airplane to Washington to level the playing field.
This is not about tariffs anymore.
Nobody has taken on China yet, not the Europeans, no administration for decades.
As someone who actually does business there...
I've had enough.
I speak for millions of Americans who have IP that have been stolen by the Chinese.
I have nothing against the Chinese people.
They brought great literacy, art, and tech to the world.
The government cheats and steals, and finally, an administration, you may not like Trump, you may not like his style or his rhetoric, finally, an administration that puts up and says, enough.
Wow. So, I'll play the rest of that clip when we come back, and then I also want to make sure that we see what's happening in the Chinese market, what they're doing.
It seems like what they're doing right now is they are tanking their own currency as a way of offsetting these tariffs, if that makes sense.
It's forcing a flight of treasuries.
I'll explain it all when we come back.
Stay tuned.

Welcome back to Just Forum Talk Radio.
I'm your host, Craig James.
We're talking about the tariff trade war, and this has been an all-out declaration of war on China, it looks like.
And we're listening to Kevin O'Leary talk about all this.
I want to play the rest of this clip and then keep going.
Listen to this.
400% tariffs tomorrow morning.
He'll tell you why.
Xi can only stay the supreme leader if people are employed.
If we wipe out any business there, because we are still 39% of all consumables on Earth and 25% of the world's GDP, America is the number one economy on Earth with all the cards.
We will not have that forever.
It's time to squeeze Chinese heads into the wall now.
Well, hold on.
I hear you, but hold on.
If we're talking about people, the average consumer, not necessarily the head honchos of businesses all across the globe, can they withstand the
It's short-lived.
There'll be...
Yeah. And I get it.
It's the same argument that we have to look at.
The same argument that host CNN, in all fairness, is making is the argument we make about a lot of things.
It's like, what can the American public withstand?
What can we withstand?
Now, I would argue that paying more at the grocery store or at the technology store, like Apple for your iPhone, whatever, I would argue that...
That is a far cry from having civil war on the streets, right?
Which is the difference in my view of, you know, where some people call for extreme measures in one avenue or in one place versus another, for instance, with regard to the criminals that have
taken over our government.
right or at least infiltrated and worked themselves in there and done a lot of harm that could lead to different consequences than this which is just a trade war but of course the same thing is is at issue is at a hand uh how much pain can the
american public take and that's a fair point but i guess the the argument you would make counter to that is what kevin o'leary said which is we're not going to be in a position to
Right? And I would say, in stark contrast to where we're at with the Deep State, the Deep State has the upper hand.
We're fighting an uphill battle there.
They have the cards.
They have a lot of power.
To destabilize things immediately.
Which, of course, would be coupled with outside pressure from our enemies like China, who would want to see nothing more than our nation collapse inward and start fighting and go the way of the Soviet Union in regard to how quickly we fall.
This is, I don't know, it's such a delicate balance we're walking here.
But what's interesting to me is that there are insiders in the intelligence community who have made comments on this particular issue.
And what they've said is this.
That what China plans to do if the U.S. wants to try to import into their economy In a much more pronounced way, which would balance the trade even further and take away a lot of China's influence.
Because you've got to remember, China now is responsible for manufacturing for most of the world.
Whereas a few decades ago, it was the United States.
So that whole paradigm has shifted to where now China is building the cars.
And they're doing it In a very dishonest and dastardly way, particularly with regard to the IP theft and like O'Leary was pointing out, they steal our technology, replicate it,
and then sell it back into our market.
Right? And they consider that fair trade.
But do we do that to them?
No. See, if we stole technology from a Chinese firm and manufactured it here in the U.S., not only would they not buy it from us, but they would take us to court in the United States and probably win.
But like O'Leary pointed out, we can't do the same to them.
We can't go to a Chinese court and say, this is our intellectual property, stop.
Here's a cease and desist.
It doesn't work that way.
You know,
That each corporate, you know, each major corporation has a specific office within their headquarters devoted to housing CCP officials who oversee and instruct the corporation
on what it can and can't do per the orders of the Communist Party.
Thank you.
So, this is a serious issue.
And what China may end up doing, at the end of the day,...is going into a isolation mindset, an isolation type of process where they will just step back from working with us to a large extent and start depending on internal consumption.
Similar but not identical to what we saw with feudal Japan.
Closing off its borders for 250 years.
Now, I'm not saying that's exactly the model because obviously China will need exports, you know, the global export market to keep its economy from completely collapsing.
But it will cut off things that it can afford to cut off.
And trust me, they will not mind making their people suffer.
Because that's sort of their ethos is that, you know, the greater good and whatnot, right?
It's all about, you know, the survival of the state, the survival of the party, party before people.
That's what communism essentially is.
So if they have to, you know, let millions of Chinese people starve or languish in poverty, they will do it.
Because the ends justify the means.
And never forget that the Communist Party is run as sort of an authoritarian regime that strong-arms its people into submission.
Now, I already hear some people say, well, what's the difference between them and the United States?
Well, in some regard it's similar, in a lot of regards it's not.
And, uh, excuse me, it's allergies today, getting me crazy.
Here, what a great day for allergies, right?
Even in Colorado, you just wake up and that's life.
But basically, what is interesting is that the government's known this for a long time, that China will go to this internal consumption model and they will isolate themselves away from any threat to their party's existence.
They will do that at their own detriment, playing a longer game that they can withstand.
Knowing that they can withstand heavy losses compared to other countries, and they have 1.3 billion people or more, so they only have a billion more people than we do, so they can afford a lot of losses,
but they can also afford a lot of...
They can afford a lot of losses in a lot of ways.
It's destabilizing, and it could be dangerous for the party.
The CCP knows that The 104% tariffs are directed solely at...
It's a shot over the bow to their Belt and Road Initiative, their global, you know, unipolar power strategy that they are trying to seek.
And I think that what we're going to see happen here is going to be nothing short of all-out war.
As I said before, it looks like what China's been doing here is selling treasuries to cover the shortfall.
And this is sort of playing into exactly what Trump's been trying to do to a degree.
It's bringing everybody to the table, that's for sure.
And of course they're breathlessly reporting in the news that the economy is going to crash and that everything's going to happen.
But as I pointed out in the other show yesterday, that's been a part of the plan from the beginning.
And the sort of tactics that China employs...
Are very, very dashly.
Now, I'm not a fan of the GMO corn, right?
But what happens with these seeds is beside the point.
You got to remember, we're exporting food for the whole world.
We're developing these GMO crops to be drought resistant and all these different other types of, you know, Insect resistant, so on and so forth, so that they can have food sustainably.
And, you know, that's what keeps food in McDonald's, basically.
If you want McDonald's in every corner, you're probably going to have to have GMOs.
And I'm not saying I like that.
I think McDonald's is not healthy.
I don't think there's anything healthy at McDonald's, to be quite honest.
But food, without food, there would be chaos.
And this is what we have now, the system we've created.
However, what's interesting is Kip Tom, who is an American farmer in Indiana, lays out very quickly here what China does as far as, this is one example of the kind of theft that China is involved in of our intellectual property.
Whether you like it or not, I'm not saying this is a defense of GMO corn, but it's something to consider.
Listen to this.
They have no interest in protecting our in-laws from property.
We had a situation on our farm and other farms throughout the Midwest where we were producing seeds, in our case for a buyer.
Chinese nationals were coming out at night digging up the pure parent lines of the seed that we was producing on our farm, only to be taken to Chicago Hare.
They think that's perfectly fine.
Well, it's not fine.
There's hundreds of millions of dollars going to research and develop these new products and then to produce and take it to the marketplace, but yet the Chinese captured that, the value of that, and stole it from the United States.
Well, I don't know how great of an example this is, and a lot of this is we've done it to ourselves, but that's one example.
Right there.
Now, there are so many different ways you can get distracted here.
I know I can, at least with the way my brain works.
And think of all the different threads, you know, just getting into the GMO corn stuff and what that's all about.
The pure parent lines that are being stolen and shipped back to China.
You know, it gets into a whole bunch of questions about farming.
Who should own the seeds in the first place and why farmers are being extorted here in America by corporations that own seed patents and etc.
etc. But the point is that that's just one example of many that China engages in where they steal intellectual property and then they remanufacture it and sell it back to us or use it for themselves.
Look at like Huawei technology.
And the other, I can't remember the other name of the Chinese company, I'll think of it over the break probably, but mostly they're just knock-offs of Samsungs and iPhones.
There's no, like, original smartphone design in China.
It's like, they just knock it off and put a different name on it, put a bunch of Chinese spyware in it, then sell it back to America at half the cost.
At least somebody's doing something about it at this point.
It might be too late.
I don't know.
Stay tuned.

Since the closing of the gold window in 1971, the Federal Reserve has led the way in the explosion of debt and the devaluing of your money.
They openly say that they need 2% inflation, which simply means they hope to devalue your money and they want to do this every single year, year after year.

road
I'm your host, Craig James.
And, you know, go walk around your house right now, if you're at home, or maybe later today when you get home from work, and look around.
And just look at the labels on things in your house.
How much of the stuff that you have in your home right now says Made in China on it?
How much of it was manufactured in a factory?
In China.
And shipped to America where you probably bought it at Walmart or some other or off of Amazon or somewhere else.
Target, if you still shop at those places.
How much of it was manufactured there?
And then ask yourself, you know, is it worth it?
Right? Is all that crap worth it?
If you say yes, is it worth Our economic insecurity going into the future.
Is it worth losing our position in this global economy and the prosperity that we have and have attained over many years?
Now, in spite of, I would argue, the exploitation and the globalist banking cartels infiltrating and everything else, in spite of that, perhaps some would say, Because of it, I would say in spite of it,
we have seemed to do pretty well still.
Because those restraints and restrictions and things really do come with a price, which we are paying right now.
But at some point, somebody decided, man, you know what?
It'd be a heck of a lot easier if we just ship everything, if we just take our manufacturing base and put it overseas where we have slaves build stuff for a fraction of the price because their economies are terrible and ours is strong, and we will exploit that labor and pay them pennies on the dollar for what would normally cost a good amount in America.
And what was the trade?
The trade was, well...
We may lose jobs, but things will get cheaper, so it'll all balance out.
Well, you know, people are pointing back to that famous Ross Perot quote, where he said, if you don't manufacture things, you can't afford to buy things, essentially.
And that's where we're at, right?
Where our prosperity and wealth that we built over a long period of time...
has been squandered and basically exploited now by very corrupt individuals.
I mean, and Kevin O'Leary, as much as I think he's a seemingly nice enough guy, they're all self-serving at the end of the day.
Elon Musk, Kevin O'Leary, the rest of them.
You know, Elon Musk just got in this whole fight about Peter Navarro calling him out for not...
You know, having 100% of his cars and car parts manufactured in the United States.
And he's like, well, we're the most.
He's so stupid because we're the most American-made cars out there.
Well, really?
Because of all your cars, the components within them, only 40 to 70% are made in the United States.
The rest are, you know, 60 to 30% or 30 to 60% of the...
The parts are manufactured in China or Japan or Taiwan or Vietnam.
Right? So they're participating in it too.
So they all have a part to take the blame and we even have our own blame to take because we foolishly or naively went along with it.
We accepted the trade.
Now, I didn't, personally, because it was even before I was old enough to start voting when a lot of these decisions were being made.
So perhaps you didn't either.
I'm not saying you directly.
We directly, and I should put my hand up too, by consuming, by buying things, by having things with the label Made in China in our home, we tacitly agreed to this arrangement.
And people now are realizing the error, looking ahead.
They're seeing a bleak future, where if we continue on this track, there won't be an America, at least not an America like what we've come to know.
It'll be something far different.
So, I think that's where we're at, in all fairness.
I think that's the situation we find ourselves in.
And so now Trump, for what it's worth, he himself having exploited this arrangement to his benefit to a large degree, he's trying to right the ship.
Now this tariff war, I don't know if it's the best way to go about it, but it's one way to do it.
You know?
It's like somebody I knew once, he would always say, you know, if something would be getting done, it might not be getting done right, but he'd be like, that's one way to do it.
You know?
There's a guy I worked with in construction.
I'd be in there, be like, alright, when I was young, working as an apprentice in a fabrication shop, and I'd be, you know...
He'd just throw me a job and say, go do it, alright?
I want you to, you know, I want you to file these edges until the seams are clean and, you know, he'd come back 20 minutes later and, oh, they'd be clean, but it'd look something wicked and he'd say,
well, that's one way to do it.
Let me show you the right way now.
So there's probably a right way.
But this is the way we're doing it.
And the point is, at least something's getting done.
And I think people need to see that there's no perfect answer to get ourselves out of an imperfect situation.
But there are other examples.
For instance, Did you know that Chinese garlic is the majority of garlic that we consume here in the United States?
Did you also know that it's grown in human waste, mostly?
That that is one of the ways that they fertilize and that's one of the ways that they grow it?
And it's like, alright, that's the way that they treat their own people and that's the way they treat us.
I mean, if you look at standards and practices in China, As a topic of interest that I've studied with fascination for years, the way that China works and operates is,
you know, basically on a get-or-done type of, an extreme cheapskate version of get-or-done, right?
It's like, you know, it's like that show Extreme Cheapskates.
You ever seen it?
Were the guys, like, you know, taking 40 free ice cream samples instead of just buying an ice cream cone?
Or he's, you know, using the water from the toilet for the shower to save money?
It's that kind of thing.
Because, for a number of reasons, but one of the reasons being that this was a...
There are generations of Chinese, not too long ago, I mean 1950s was when it became communist because of very horrific conditions and they lived in extreme poverty with extreme levels of lacking resources and other things.
So they developed techniques to save money and those kind of passed down.
The Communist Party officials who are in charge of overseeing this stuff can be bought and paid for.

If you've ever been frustrated or frightened by a cut or a nosebleed that won't stop bleeding or had an emergency where bleeding can't be controlled, you need BleedStop.
It's a safe-in-the-wound, non-stinging, FDA-cleared powder that's clinically proven to quickly and easily stop bleeding even for severe wounds and for people on blood thinners or people with nosebleeds.
My oldest son cut himself with a knife quite badly and we had BleedStop with us and we put it on the wound and it stopped the bleeding.
Bandages don't do much to stop the bleeding, certainly not if you're on a blood thinner.
BleedStop works.
Simply put BleedStop onto any cut or wound, apply pressure, and watch the bleeding stop.
Easy to apply.
It doesn't burn.
It doesn't sting.
Take away your bleeding fear.
BleedStop absolutely works, even if you're on blood thinners or suffer from nosebleeds.
BleedStop is used in emergency rooms across the country.
Imagine what BleedStop can do for a serious cut.

But it wouldn't make nothing happen.
I've got a woman or a girl.
Well,
Welcome back to this Forum Talk Radio.
I'm your host, Craig James.
We're talking about China, the tariff, the war that's been essentially declared now against them.
Economic, that is, at least, for now.
And somebody texted in our unofficial Hispanic bot friend in northern Colorado, TJ.
I just think that's funny.
That's their own self-proclaimed title.
I would never say such a thing about somebody calling them a bot.
That would be crazy.
But, our official Hispanic bot of northern Colorado says, I'm not an expert on China, but I have been there.
China's economy is smoke and mirrors.
They can't sustain the smoke and mirrors without dollars.
Thus, they won't be going it alone.
They will crack.
And he also says, they also say, we had manufacturing in China.
We would joke about them having a force shift.
The force shift is the one under the table.
Yeah, I'm assuming that's like referring to a forced shift would be paying off the officials to look the other way.
That's the money that they would put toward that.
You're paying the communist officials to not interact with or to turn a blind eye to any practices that were substandard, right?
We've all seen the videos.
Mostly, I'm sure.
Of what goes on in some of these factories, some of the, you know, they do all kinds of crazy stuff in China.
A lot of the street vendors who sell food will use what's called gutter oil, which is very disgusting.
What they do is they skim oil out of drain pipes from sewers, and that's why they call it gutter oil.
And they'll use it to cook food in because a lot of people, you know, will put oil in the sewer and the oil floats on top of the water.
So they skim the oil off the top of the water out of the sewer and they will, you know, that saves money.
So then they cook with it and sell food on the street using that oil, which inevitably makes people violently ill.
But there is such a lack of oversight that, you know, nobody really ever gets caught or if they do, you know, they...
And I'm not talking about, like, the normal toxic vaccine schedule that we have here in America.
I'm talking about, like, poison, essentially, was in the thing, and it killed a lot of children.
That was a big one.
There's been a bunch, right?
This goes for everything.
I mean, it wasn't too long ago.
Remember when everybody was up in arms because there was lead in all the toys they were sending over here to our kids?
You know?
And then people got really upset about that because they're like, I don't want my kid, you know, buying toys with lead in it because that's not healthy and that's not good.
So, there's a lot of problems in China and then not to mention everything we know about China and the influence operations they've run here in America, I would venture a guess to say that a large portion of what we're seeing,
particularly with regard to these quote-unquote grassroots and organic protests against Trump and Doge and his administration, will amplify substantially now that China...
...is going to be kicking into effect, I'm sure, a larger and more pronounced plan to destabilize the United States, to distract us and keep us from being able to implement, effectively, this trade war that's been started.
So, there's going to be all kinds of second, third, fourth order effects of all this, and beyond.
That we will see over the next coming days, weeks, and months.
But right now, we're in the infancy of it, right?
You have 104% tariffs on China, right?
And what they import here, and now they're charging us an 84% tariff as well.
So, it's definitely going to be a battle of wills, but a lot of people believe that we have the upper hand.
I'll play this quick clip of the Secretary of the Treasury, Scott Besson, explaining what he thinks this is all going to come to, or at least where we're at now in this.
Maria, I think it's unfortunate that the Chinese actually don't want to come and negotiate because they are the worst offenders in the international trading system.
They have the most imbalanced economy in the history of the modern world.
And I can tell you that this escalation is a loser for them.
They have some very smart economists, the academicians, technocrats within their bureaucracy, and they would be telling the leadership that we do not have the edge here.
They are the surplus country.
Their exports to the U.S. are five times our exports to China.
So they can raise their tariffs, but so what?
I think it's unfortunate that the China...
Meaning, they sell us more and depend on our money more than we sell to them and depend on their money.
So we're not in a position that...
Makes us completely, you know...
Not yet, at least.
Because China, trust me, they have a global power that is very close to ours.
They are the second largest economy in the world.
The thing is, Scott Besson's got a good point.
And this is not going to last forever, which is what Kevin O'Leary was saying.
So, the point is, we have to understand That if we don't do this now, it just will never happen, and then eventually we'll all be speaking Mandarin.
You know?
You can listen to these people all day tell us about this country or that country, that's the problem, but China is the one that nobody wants to talk about, and who knows?
Maybe we'll have another pandemic, you know?
Thanks, China and the U.S. deep state.
Anyway, stay tuned.

There's something happening here.
What it is ain't exactly clear.
There's a man with a gun over there telling me I've got to beware.
I think it's time we stop.
Children, what's that sign?
Everybody look what's going down Well
Welcome back to Just Forum Talk Radio.
I'm your host, Craig James.
And we're just going to sort of wrap up the whole conversation here with this.
That, you know, what's happening in China right now in response to all of this?
Well, in short, U.S. Treasury yields are rising because China has become a forced seller of U.S. Treasuries in order to defend the collapsing yuan.
So their currency is collapsing.
And because of what Scott Pesent was saying, that they're the surplus country.
We don't need them as much as they need us.
Like, we can go without the cheap crap at Walmart, mostly.
Which accounts for a portion of that, whatever it is, three or four hundred billion dollars that they export into our nation every year.
Whereas... They can't...
Their economy will not do well if they lose $200 or $100 billion in trade overnight.
So they're being put in the position where the squeeze is happening.
And, I mean, look.
I've said it before and I'll say it again.
We are in a very precarious and unique position with regard to all of this, right?
It's where we're at.
There's no way of looking at it otherwise.
But at this point, there are people out there who have very negative takes on this.
And I'll give you one example.
Mike Adams, the health ranger, who I like and respect, and I think he's got a good voice, but he sometimes gets a little bit frantic for me.
This is an example of it.
He says, if Trump thinks America is a bunch of mothballed factories sitting around just waiting to be turned on and staffed by millions of ready-motivated, skilled workers, American workers, who just can't wait to work 9 to 5 at industrial factories like we did in the 1940s, then
he's smoking more crack than Hunter ever did.
All the tariffs in the world can't bring back American industrial base because the factories don't exist.
This is an example of it.
Americans are not willing to work in the factories, and the skills needed to run the machines are already two generations long gone, and the people willing to work in the factories are being deported.
Okay, Mike?
So what's your solution, Mike?
Give up?
This is what I love about people who say this kind of stuff.
It's like, okay, so what's your solution, Mike?
And Mike's just like, well...
All hope is lost.
Everything is futile.
There's nothing new under the sun.
Okay. Well, that doesn't seem very hopeful.
That doesn't seem very positive.
That doesn't seem very optimistic.
And I'm not saying everybody has to be a hopeful, positive optimist, but it'd be nice if people offered more solutions than they did problems.
At least Trump's doing something.
At least Trump's trying.
Golly. Sometimes one of the things I hate about the conservatives as much as I dislike about the liberals is the pessimism and the eternal negative outlook.
It's like, have a little bit of hope every now and then.
You don't inspire people to do great things by telling them all hope is lost, give up.
Anyway, stay tuned.
We're coming back.

Thanks to HughesNet.
Give them a call.
And that is...
A big deal.
So go reach out to them.
Okay. So we're talking about the economy.
We're talking about tariffs.
We're talking about what the long game is.
I've read this to you before and kind of gave a brief explainer on it.
But I found a video that does a pretty good job of explaining it as well.
And I want to share it.
First, though, like we were talking about at the end of the last hour, we were talking about Mike Adams and his take on it.
Somebody texted in from the 9-7-0 and said, shut up, Mike.
My sentiments sort of are similar.
Somebody from the 7-2-0 said, let's see, they said...
Hope and change.
We need to take our medicine and reset to proper fundamentals and not chase cotton candy pie in the sky, get rich quick without work.
It's a problem with our mindset as a society.
We need to prepare for hard work.
The fantasy of easy money and wealth is just that.
These are the good times that have produced soft men, and we know what comes next.
Buckle up and get ready.
I agree.
I agree.
You need to be ready to work and earn what you have, and that's really...
Ultimately, where we're at.
So, great points, great text, appreciate it.
Let's listen to this, though.
I want to give people, and this is maybe the more macro way of looking at what Trump's doing.
Listen to this.
Prepare to be blown away.
I'm going to connect some dots for you in this video that involve this guy, it involves the Federal Reserve, it involves the tariffs, and it involves the stock market.
And nobody is talking about this, so please listen up.
So you'll all be aware about the tariffs.
He's just slapped them on the European Union, Canada, China, Mexico.
Is there another country around the world he's not tariffing?
And he spun this like he's trying to level the playing field and stop America getting ripped.
There is a bigger play going on here and your mind is going to be blown.
Check this out.
So this year, the US needs to refinance in about seven months $9.2 trillion worth of debt.
It needs to refinance.
The debt is maturing.
Currently, the interest rates with the Fed are quite high and this is a problem.
This guy's background is property, and property includes refinancing, and he understands finance costs and how dilapidating high finance costs can be.
What he's done with the tariffs, intentionally, I believe, is to crash the stock market.
The stock market, the Dow Jones, is crashing.
Investors are absolutely panicking.
It's the same in the cryptocurrency market.
Cryptocurrency markets crashed.
They've bounced a little bit, but they're on a downward trend.
Now, what happens when investors are flooding out of the stock market, out of equities?
Where do they go?
They will go into things like gold, silver, but they will also go into things like government bonds.
So as investors flood out of the stock market and into
What happens then?
This drives down the yield on bonds.
It drives down the return on bonds.
So when the return and the yield on bonds decreases, on government bonds decreases, what does this do?
It forces the Federal Reserve to lower interest rates, which up to this point has been resistant to do.
Trump administration's been putting pressure on the Federal Reserve to lower interest rates for a while and it's been resistant.
However, the Federal Reserve is the government's bank.
That's where the government goes to borrow money.
So if the Federal Reserve knows that the government needs, which is a private corporation by the way, it knows that the US government needs to refinance all of this debt, why would it lower rates?
It's going to resist until the US needs to refinance.
So I believe what you're seeing is a huge game.
What you're seeing is the biggest game of high stakes poker.
The world has ever seen with about 1.7 trillion that's come out of the stock market and the crypto market.
$1.7 trillion per hand.
It's the biggest high-stakes poker game you've ever seen between Donald Trump, his administration, and the Federal Reserve.
And the idea is to collapse the stock market, to cause investors to come out, go into government bonds, and then those government bond yields come down, forces the US Federal Reserve to lower its interest rates, and the US can refinance its $9 trillion debt.
So my belief is what you're going to see is the markets completely soften.
The US Federal Reserve is going to capitulate.
It's going to lower its interest rate.
The US will refinance all of its debt on a lower interest rate and then you're going to see a bounce in the markets like you've never seen before.
Yeah, I think that's a fair estimation as well to the more macro side of it.
You know, that may be the broader justification for the Trump administration doing what it's doing, and that may be the only reason they're doing it, but I think and would like to believe that they also have an intention of making a situation where,
you know we actually have some restoration of american prosperity that's not dependent on the exploitation of foreign labor and um you know the the sort of outsourcing of our manufacturing
and doing all these things that ultimately in the long run hurt america so it's like killing two birds with one stone essentially in my humble opinion and again i'm an optimistic guy maybe and that that some people criticize me for having
this outlook but i like to see the good in in people and and have a hope that we can do better and and
I don't think that solves problems.
I think true leaders understand you motivate people not by negative reinforcement but by positive reinforcement, by encouraging them, by giving them hope, by showing them a path towards success and allowing them to work on it.
That's just my opinion.
Anyway, stay tuned.
We're coming back.

Thank you.
Welcome back.
I am your host, Craig James, and we have a lot of things happening here that we should address as well.
I'm having some thoughts about different issues, and I want to keep getting into a lot of the stuff that we're talking about here when it comes to China.
We'll probably cover that more in...
Tomorrow's show to a degree, but for now I want to get into some other topics.
But first, it looks like somebody texted in and asked a question saying, Hey Craig, who is that audio clip or what is it called?
Yeah, I don't have that clip.
It was just a clip online.
Somebody randomly on X who had put that.
I don't have any names or attribute to it, but the principle remains, so I apologize.
I don't have that for you, but you could probably find it on my Twitter timeline, I think, if I reposted it.
But you could follow me over on xtwitter at justinformed1.
However, to get into some other stories here that I thought were also important, one thing that I've noticed is, you remember when Kash Patel Made this remark about what he was going to do on day one at the FBI headquarters.
I do.
Listen to this.
A government creep with personnel.
The FBI's footprint has gotten so freaking big.
And the biggest problem the FBI has had has come out of its intel shops.
I'd break that component out of it.
I'd shut down the FBI Hoover building on day one.
And reopening the next day as a museum of the deep state.
And I'd take the 7,000 employees that work in that building and send them across America to chase down criminals.
Go be cops.
You're cops.
Go be cops.
Go chase down murderers and rapists and drug dealers and violent offenders.
Yeah, Pepperidge Farms remembers that.
That's a joke from a cartoon.
But the truth is I remember when he said that and I thought to myself, wow.
That's great.
We should totally do that.
Yet now, here we are finding ourselves in a position where the FBI is still running corruptly, and I have this clip from the Bannon's war room with Steve Bannon and Tom Fitton from Judicial Watch talking about what's happening to the FBI and what Trump needs to do about it.
Let's listen to this.
Let's go back to Tom Fenton.
So Tom, what are you proposing?
What would you like to see?
Because you kind of speak for millions in the MAGA movement.
And the reason I wanted to have you on today, I've been bombarded by people saying, where are the arrests?
Where are the investigations?
Where are the grand jurors?
They kind of look at Ed Martin over at the U.S. Attorney's Office in D.C. And they say, hey, that looks like our guy right now.
But what's happening overall?
So what's your recommendations?
What would you specifically like to see?
Well, the president's got to be the president.
And if I were President Trump, I'd be reminding everyone around him that, hey, I'm the president.
That's what bugged me about that signal chat escapade.
It wasn't so much that it took place, it was what the substance was, which was they were second-guessing a decision the president had already made.
And Pam Bondi isn't going to do it.
Cash Patel isn't going to remake the Justice Department or the FBI.
They're going to be running it.
And it's not a criticism of them.
This is where the president should step in and say, this is what the FBI needs to look like, or this is how it needs to be changed.
I can't be around anymore to do to others what they did to me.
And I tell you, if after four years nothing's been done, other than they've reoriented the FBI or DOJ to focus on arresting MS-13, then whoever comes in next time, Republican or Democrat, Trump's going to be investigated again.
People around Trump are going to be subject to criminal investigation again.
And so what President Trump needs to do is to hire a special counsel, run it out of the White House, cash the FBI.
They can't investigate themselves.
DOJ can't investigate themselves.
Let's stop pretending that these agencies are going to investigate their friends and colleagues.
It's not going to happen.
And it's really not fair even to expect the leadership to spend all their time investigating their own people.
It's not going to happen organizationally.
That's why you need outsiders and Kash Patel should be told to follow Marco Rubio's lead on USAID.
Shut it down.
The reason I love this, and as you know, I'm close, I love Cash, love Dan, love Pam, but the reason I love this structurally is that we talk about...
It's not about them, it's about what's happening as a government.
The structure.
This gets back to the unitary executive theory.
I love the fact you're saying, announce a special counsel, that special counsel reports directly to the President of the United States and is run out of the West Wing.
This puts to rest the third part.
He's a chief executive officer.
We're in court fighting.
Can he cut personnel?
Can he cut budgets?
Can he impound money?
The commander-in-chief, they're in court right now with Boesberg trying to interfere with him being commander-in-chief.
This is the third leg of the stool, which is being chief magistrate and chief law enforcement officer.
You take care of all that.
By setting up a special counsel, having directly report to the office of the president and set it up in the West Wing.
And what would be the mandate for that special counsel, Tom Fenton?
Start running a grand jury in Fort Pierce.
Investigating the deprivation of his civil rights, the civil rights of other Americans under color of law, the seeming conspiracy with the Justice Department.
The state actors in Fulton County, New York, etc., to target Trump, not because they violated law, to target party leaders in the Republican Party, activists, not because they violated the law, but in retaliation for their First Amendment protected rights.
That's a crime, potentially.
And people need to be at least asked questions about what went on.
I'm not even, you know, this is not a question of a prosecution yesterday.
This is a question, are they even asking anyone questions?
President Trump's a crime victim.
Are they investigating our crimes against him?
I'm not seeing any indication that there is.
And, you know, Dan's been putting out some tweets talking about how there are things that are happening behind the scenes he can't talk about just because it's not readily apparent doesn't mean it's not happening.
Well, that may be true on certain law enforcement areas, certainly on national security, but it's not true on these types of crimes.
You know, if there was a serious criminal investigation into what happened against Trump, we'd know all about it.
And the fact that we're not hearing anything about it is a good indication, as DC gets, nothing's happening.
Tom Fenton, where do people go to follow this?
Because I anticipate this is going to get a little momentum after this morning's chat with you.
Where do people go?
I think Tom's got a good point, to be quite honest.
Tom Fenton, of course, of Judicial Watch.
He is pointing out that Trump needs to implement a new strategy to take on this deep state.
And the fact of the matter is we still – I mean, I know the world comes at you fast, right, especially with the 24-hour news cycle and how things change so quickly.
But at this point, it does feel as though people are losing sight of the fact that the DOJ and the FBI and the U.S. government were institutionally –
somebody for crimes they never committed, to investigate in a fishing expedition, to find crimes before they even knew what those crimes were, and that in many cases there was collusion and coordination
between officials that would most certainly
corruption and very nefarious actions by people who are in positions of power, who abuse their positions of power, to try to affect political outcomes, to interfere in elections, to do all kinds of crazy stuff.
And, you know, I mean, I get it.
There are important things Trump's doing, like the trade thing is important.
But this is equally important.
However, I feel like There are people instructing Trump that those are more important than doing this, and I guess I agree with Tom Fitton to the extent that these are equally important, and these are things that are actionable, real paths that can be taken by the Trump administration to go after it.
And the truth is, like they said, to have an expectation that the DOJ or the FBI are going to inspect itself That's sort of unfathomable.
I don't think it's possible.
It's impossible.
And also now with Kash Patel and Pam Bondi in charge of these two agencies without acting on...
I mean, Pam Bondi I understand to the extent that she never made any real extreme promises regarding her actions.
She was selected probably because of that, because of her You know, background and perhaps because she is not threatening and she doesn't have any history that makes her susceptible to being intimidated or corrupted,
that's what you kind of need at the top law enforcement position as the AG.
But, Kash Patel, I mean, people are pointing out, and I agree, you know, made an entire media circuit tour for years.
Saying he was going to shut down the FBI and dismantle it and do all of these very extreme things that people wanted and voted predicated on the belief that it would happen.
And now, of course, it's like, well, we're just going to get those MS-13 guys, which I agree.
The MS-13 guys are bad, and there's probably a lot of them.
And yeah, they probably account for a lot of problems that we're seeing in America.
I mean, as a matter of fact, you can go as far as connecting MS-13 to some of the biggest and most major criminal enterprises this country's ever seen, up to and including the Clinton crime cartel.
Right? The murder of Seth Rich, ring any bells?
The DNC server leaks, ring any bells?
WikiLeaks, etc.?
Who do you think were the Wetworks guys who took out Seth Rich?
Allegedly, it was a couple of MS-13 gang members who A few weeks later, wound up, you know, dead in a barrio near D.C. Right?
So, I get it, that there are pressing issues that they're probably taking on, and I'm sure the task is quite overwhelming, to be fair.
So I don't want to cast, you know, sort of doubts against them.
Particularly Patel and Bongino and what they're doing.
But I will say that, as was pointed out in this interview, Trump's actions and path are clear.
How many pokers does he want to put in the fire, I guess, is the question.
How many irons does he want in the fire is the question, I guess.
How many fronts does he want to battle the deep state on at one time?
That may be what the issue is at this point.
But we had to keep the
up on him, particularly given the fact that it is going to be our pressure that gets things done.
Otherwise, nothing will get done.
If we just sit back and rest on our laurels and accept the status quo as being acceptable,
Nothing's going to change.
The hope, the idea, the thought at least at the moment is let's push toward a situation where we get Trump on board with going after the people who went after him.
At minimum.
Which, we have a little bit of time, so we'll give him some time.
Time is good to give in these situations.
But we're going to take a break.
We're going to talk about more.
I have other stories, particularly about Colorado.
Some really disturbing stuff going on here.

Stories finally gaining national attention.

Welcome back to Just Forum Talk Radio.
I'm your host, Craig James.
And I wanted to talk a little bit about Colorado, what's happening here.
HB 251312 is an issue that's garnering a lot of attention nationally now.
What they're doing here in Colorado, among many other things, is disgusting.
It's very much a threat to...
The safety of children and the security of parents knowing that they can protect their children.
Here is the issue at hand.
I'll play this short clip and then we'll talk about it.
There's a new war on parental rights in Colorado.
You will not believe this.
Democrats advancing a controversial bill that would effectively classify misgendering And dead naming as child abuse and custody decisions.
Now, dead naming is when you refer to an individual by their birth name and not the new desired name.
So in custody battles, that would now be considered coercive.
The Democrats invoked a rule to avoid any debate on this bill and these changes.
And now it's heading to the Democrat-controlled Senate, where it will likely...
I mean, this is wild.
Republican State Representative Jarvis Caldwell refused to stay silent, posting this.
When we were going into debate, starting the debate on House Bill 1312, the Democrat majority invoked Rule 16. Rule 16 is calling the question and it ends debate immediately and then goes directly into a vote.
And I believe they did this to silence us because they know how much negative attention this has been getting nationwide.
And so what they did was they silenced us and did not let us represent our constituents and talk about the issues that we have with this bill.
If you recall, House Bill 1312 says that if your child is confused about their gender identity and you don't affirm that confusion, that delusion, then you are guilty of child abuse and you can lose custody
of your children.
Now here's what I wanted to say from the floor of the House of Representatives that I was robbed of saying in silence.
I wanted to say it is not me.
It is not my constituents.
It is not the people from my side of the aisle who are pushing this gender identity crap on the kids of Colorado.
They are.
And what they want to do with this bill is say that if they confuse your children and you don't affirm that confusion, they will take your child from you.
So Lydia, if you call your child by their birth pronoun, if you call your child by their birth name, That is considered coercive, and you could have your child taken away in the state of Colorado.
I can't think of anything more Orwellian or more Big Brother.
It feels like the lunatics are running the statehouse there or something.
That's the only way to explain it.
Yeah, welcome to Colorado Politics.
Yeah, it does feel like the lunatics have taken over the asylum.
We are currently living on a funny farm, and the patients are running the show, as it were.
We have psychotically deranged, perhaps in some cases demonically possessed, lunatics.
Running the show here in Colorado, and it's not just this bill, it's pretty much everything that they're trying to push through right now, whether it's the affront to the Second Amendment they're trying to do, they've already tried to put out this tax on guns,
and that's all being challenged, but they've already done so much damage to this state.
That it's going to take years, if not decades, to undo some of this damage if we ever even get a chance.
If we don't end up going the way of California into becoming a one-party state that is entirely owned, operated, and controlled by these, you know, truly evil people.
And I mean that in the most literal sense of the word, given what we learn in Scripture about what is good and what is evil.
As Christians, I think we're all very aware that what Jesus said particularly is poignantly appropriate here.
Anyone who would harm the littlest of these, the children, be better for them to tie a millstone around their neck and be thrown into the sea because their punishment will be that much greater.
I think that what we're seeing here, in no uncertain terms, is this sort of California-esque takeover, and what's happening,
too, I would argue, is that as they see Trump, they are mimicking, it's sort of like a game of mirror, right?
As they see Trump do something, they're trying to mimic it.
And it's like that's an acting exercise I think people do where it's like you stand up next to somebody and you pretend you're in a mirror and you try to do what they're doing and that's what they're trying to do.
They're trying to go extreme to match what Trump's doing because they think that's what I guess the time calls for, the times call for.
And yeah, I think it's going to backfire on them, hopefully.
If we're lucky, I know eventually they will be facing account for their actions when they eventually do die, which we all do, believe it or not.
They will have to take account for what they've done, and they will have to answer to God for that, and that will be upon their judgment.
But I do also think that, you know...
If you don't want this state to become California, people need to start getting much more active politically.
And I say that just as much for myself as I do for everybody out there listening.
Politically. I'm not calling for anything else other than political action for the time being.
I'm not saying I will call for something else later.
I'm just saying that's what I'm calling for now.
Somebody pointed out in a text, which is interesting, that according to U-Haul, there were more people moving out of Colorado last year than moving in.
I wonder why we've gone too far.
Well, look, and here's the thing.
That's kind of what they want.
They want people to leave and flee.
And they want to...
That's what happened in California to a large degree.
And then you just have these conservative districts relegated to...
You know, acquiescence to the liberal mob blob that, you know, is worshipping Baphomet and sacrificing your children in the town square.
And, you know, organizing marches against Trump and tariffs because they're experts on politics and the economy now with their, you know, feminist theory degree from the University of Denver.
that they achieved in a record-breaking 12 years at school.
You know?
I'm of the opinion that this is sad and unfortunate.
This state is a wonderful, beautiful state, which I love.
I've always had an affinity for Colorado.
I love the land.
I love a lot of the people here.
I think it's a wonderful place, but I also think that it's a place that attracts people because of those things and that those people are very exploitive.
They take advantage of the kindness that we show as Christians particularly.
And I'm not saying that to tell you not to show kindness, but never ever This is the big lie they sell us, right?
Is believing that as Christians, you know, we are just supposed to be these quiet, sort of complacent, you know, people who don't speak up and allow people to walk all over us because of, you know,
they take one verse out of context and tell us, oh, well, you should just turn the other cheek.
I've had so many liberals quote scripture to me out of context over the years that it really does show me the same spirit of what you read in scripture when the devil tries to use the scripture to deceive Jesus and to manipulate him.
Right? That's what they're doing.
Don't let them do it.
Stand firm in your beliefs.
Anyway, stay tuned.
We're coming back.

Welcome back to Just Form Talk Radio.
So, you know, we're talking about Colorado, and I wanted to just reiterate the following.
That what's happening in Colorado is not by accident, and it's not just happening here.
Okay, it's all by design.
The movements and manipulations, the protests, everything from these protests to the bills being passed to the implementation of these absurd things, all of it is calculated, coordinated, and very intentional.
And what do I mean by that?
Well, before I do that, I'll read a couple text messages.
Our friend Henry texted in and said, Not sounding like a broken record, but I think we need to call for another day of fasting and prayer against this evil that's trying to destroy the family and pervert our kids here in Colorado.
I agree, Henry.
We'll talk offline about that.
We'll talk in person or I'll text you.
We'll talk.
So in my opinion, Colorado's elections need to be fixed from the non-stopped theft.
We have selections, not elections.
Yeah, I know.
And now the Secretary of State who tried to rig the last one and probably did rig it to a large degree, Secretary of State Jenna Griswold, is now running for Attorney General.
So now she'll be the top cop.
Hmm. That'll be fun.
So the lady who should be in jail for leaking the passwords to the voting machines to undermine our election and try to undermine national elections, believe it or not, she's now going to be the top cop enforcing the law.
How about that for irony of ironies?
But, like I was saying, this is all intentional.
How did we get here?
Well, I don't know if this necessarily is how we got to this specific outcome here in Colorado, but I do know that more broadly, Michael Schellenberger, when he gave testimony on Capitol Hill about Deploying PSYOP tactics against Americans starting in 2016 and how this all came to be,
these institutions and organizations that have these corrosive and destructive ideologies have been deployed against us like a virus, okay?
And this is one of the vectors from which the virus attacks us.
Listen to this.
You say in your testimony PSYOP tactics being used by the U.S. and U.K. military against the American people.
That is really scary stuff reading that.
Could you elaborate?
Because I think the American people need to hear, I mean, they need to hear about this.
Yeah, I mean, we now know what happened, which is that basically after the war on terror, the United States...
...used counter-terrorism, counter-insurgency, counter-populism tactics first in the Middle East as part of the Arab Spring uprisings, then in Eastern Europe as part of the color revolutions, using social media to foment revolutions against places that we wanted regime change, and then using censorship in places to repress conflicting opinion in places that we were trying to stabilize.
Those tactics were then turned against the American people after the populist revolutions of 2016.
First you saw Russiagate.
This wild conspiracy theory that President Trump was somehow controlled through a sex blackmail operation by the Russians.
But then we also saw a very elaborate effort to do exactly what they had done abroad, creating small committees of experts to decide what the truth was and demand censorship on the basis of it.
But I also mentioned there's also these proactive influence operations, the most dramatic of which is the 100-by-in-laptop, severely illegal, but we also saw in the mobilization of the intelligence community.
And now in the latest article that we published today, we have documented that the Agency for International Development has overseen basically a takeover over the last decade and a half of intellectuals.
So, In short,
they control the narrative.
And their control over the narrative has allowed the things that we see metastasize and grow and spread, like this virus that it is, this is how it's allowed to happen because, look, these are not normal people.
As I've said before, at minimum, they're mentally ill lunatics.
At maximum, they're demonically possessed minions of Satan.
And it might be a combination of both.
Particularly the individuals who are targeting children in such a way as to convince them that God made a mistake when he created them and that they should go and surgically mutilate themselves or chemically mutilate their bodies so that they can become something That they think they may be because they were told they are it by a mentally ill person at one point or another,
or they have some mental illness or some trauma that's caused them to internalize grief or anger or hatred against themselves, and it's caused a destructive behavior, and this is what leads to these destructive behaviors, whether it's drug abuse or pornography abuse or alcohol abuse or...
You know, self-harm.
And I don't care what anyone says.
When you tell a child that they are, you know, the wrong gender, you are encouraging them to commit suicide.
And what I mean by that is not just that you are, you know, that the demographic numbers and the statistics say that people who have these conditions and mental illnesses are more likely to commit suicide, but you are telling them that they need to kill who they are and become something else.
That's what it is.
I mean, at the end of the day, and that's what I don't get.
It makes my stomach, it makes me sick to my stomach, to be quite honest, when I hear some of the rhetoric.
That is being put out by these sick, deranged individuals who try to hide it all in this ambivalent virtue that they signal to the masses as if they're some great progenitor of altruistic good.
They're there for kids' rights.
No. No, you're advocating for self-destruction because you yourself have a void inside of you that is either caused by severe and deep mental illness or a severe and deep hatred of God or a combination of the two.
So, don't put that crap on me or anyone else.
This is on them.
They are going to suffer, but if we sit back and let them do it, then it's on us too.
So that's why you have to stand up for what you believe in and tell the truth no matter what the cost.
I've done it, and I hope you do the same.
Stay tuned.
We're coming back.
I'm Joe Jaquin, CEO of the Patriot Trading Group, and I would like to encourage everyone to make sure they are prepared financially.
As the Federal Reserve continues to destroy the value of the dollar.
Since the closing of the gold window in 1971, the Federal Reserve has led the way in the explosion of debt and the devaluing of your money.
They openly say that they need 2% inflation, which simply means they hope to devalue your money and they want to do this every single year, year after year.
I know it's hard to understand.
But the Federal Reserve believes in prosperity through debt and growth via the devaluation of your future.

But it rose until I stumbled and made my mistakes.
Then I could know in my soul how amazing was grace.
Welcome back to Just Forum Talk Radio.
Again, sorry for the allergies.
It is that time of year, but we're at our final segment.
Man, time flies.
We'll be back tomorrow with Nick Ngo, God willing.
Thursdays and Fridays, you know, that's where we are joined by Nick Ngo, our co-host, so that'll be fun.
Make sure you tune in for that.
Also, make sure you stick around because there's great programming coming up for the rest of the day, but...
We always end with some scripture, and today is no different.
I want to read Matthew 18, since we basically talked about it in our last segment.
I want to read the specific scripture, and it's about what happens to those who harm children, but more overly, it's how we find the kingdom of heaven, right?
And it's 18, 1 through 9. It says, At that time the disciples came to Jesus and said, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?
Then he called a child to him and had him stand among them.
I assure you, he said, unless you are converted and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.
Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child, this one is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
And whoever welcomes one child like this in my name welcomes me.
But whoever causes the downfall of one of these little ones who believes in me, It would be better for him if a heavy millstone were hung around his neck and he were drowned in the depths of the sea.
Woe to the world because of offenses for offenses must come but woe to that man by whom the offenses come.
If your hand or your foot causes your downfall cut it off and throw it away.
It is better for you to enter life maimed or lame than to have two hands and two feet and be thrown into the eternal fire.
And if your eye causes your downfall gouge it out and throw it away.
It is better for you to enter life with one eye than rather than And that's how we have to look at it.
And I think what was being explained there was that you need to rid yourself of the things that cause you to stumble or fall.
And you have to humbly, with humility and childlike humility, submit yourself before God.
Otherwise, the judgment that we're going to face is eternal.
Never forget that.
You may get away with it in this life.
Heck, you may prosper and succeed and find wealth and all types of things that profit you, but what does it profit a man if you lose your soul?
And that's where this battle really I think stands.
And that's my message to all of you out there.
Rid yourself of these things in this world that cause you to stumble or fall and fall away from grace and fall away from God, I should say, more appropriately.
Don't allow yourself to fall in that trap.
Humble yourself before God and find that relationship.
That's where I'm going to leave it.
If you haven't accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, I invite you now, open your heart.
Call upon His name.
Accept Him as your Lord and Savior.
But we're going to be back tomorrow.
Same time, same place, God willing.
Until then, and we're going to be joined by Nick Ngo, which I know you all look forward to every week.
Sorry I didn't get to all the text messages, but we will get to more tomorrow.
Stay tuned.
We'll see you on the next one.
Until then, Godspeed and God bless each and every one of you, Patriots.
