=== Entering the Fray (06:22) ===

[00:00:00]  It says nothing new with nuclear weapons at this point.
[00:00:02]  This is now that we want to go all in and take out the regime.
[00:00:09]  It's time for us to close the chapter on the Iranian Ayatollah and his henchmen and start a new chapter in the Middle East.
[00:00:18]  That sounds good, doesn't it?
[00:00:20]  But what have we learned when it comes to wars, and especially wars in the Middle East?
[00:00:25]  What you draw up on a whiteboard rarely happens.
[00:00:30]  What you think theoretically is going to occur, there might be unintended and unforeseen consequences, especially when you're talking about a country two and a half times the size of Texas.
[00:00:45]  It has 90 million people and was an ancient and great power with well over a dozen ethnic groups.
[00:00:53]  You have underground Christians.
[00:00:55]  You don't really have many Jews left in Persia, but also you have secular younger Persians.
[00:01:00]  Who's going to run the country exactly, Lindsey Graham?
[00:01:03]  This sounds like Hillary Rodham Clinton.
[00:01:05]  In Libya.
[00:01:06]  So I'm pointing to the first extreme right now, the neoconservative extreme, the we must go take off the head of the snake right now.
[00:01:15]  Breaking news Donald Trump just declared war over the weekend on Iran.
[00:01:20]  It's not just a declaration.
[00:01:21]  This war is well underway.
[00:01:23]  We are dropping bombs like there's no tomorrow.
[00:01:26]  Each of these missiles costing the American taxpayer $9 million a pop.
[00:01:30]  We're talking about hundreds, even a thousand.
[00:01:33]  The resources are waning, but there'll be replacements, and we'll keep spending your money.
[00:01:37]  Money.
[00:01:38]  Now, Iran is retaliating in kind.
[00:01:41]  The leader of Iran allegedly has now been killed, and so the head of the snake is decapitated.
[00:01:46]  But the question remains, of course, will this snake regrow two heads in its place?
[00:01:52]  We hope that it will be good for those people in Iran, especially those who have been oppressed by a totalitarian regime, and most especially those who are Christians who have been persecuted in times, and we want to see them thrive.
[00:02:06]  But we know for sure it may be good for Iran.
[00:02:09]  It might To be temporarily good for America in some economic fashion.
[00:02:13]  Maybe the Dow goes up, oil prices, this, that, and the other.
[00:02:17]  But there's one group that it's definitively positive for, and that group, per usual, is Israel.
[00:02:23]  One of my concerns is this that Iran was really serving as one of the only checks and balances in the Middle East, holding Israel and its influence and power at bay.
[00:02:32]  With them being removed from the board, it won't happen overnight, but Israel can conceivably, over the decades to come, Expand its borders and gain strength and political power, have certain trade routes and geopolitical strategic positioning to become a rival superpower to these United States.
[00:02:52]  And if that occurs, they will not have our best interest at heart.
[00:02:57]  I don't want to see Israel rival the United States in power because I don't trust them.
[00:03:03]  So, all this being said, there are people who hate the war, people who love the war.
[00:03:08]  That said, I think it's still yet.
[00:03:10]  To be determined, and we don't want to have egg on our face and rush to certain judgments preemptively.
[00:03:16]  However, it's yet to be determined is this going to be good for America?
[00:03:20]  What is the cost?
[00:03:21]  How many casualties will there be?
[00:03:23]  It could turn out that China doesn't enter the fray, Russia doesn't enter the fray, and in a matter of days or just a couple weeks with minimal casualties, everything is done and things are better for some of the Iranian people and even economic benefits for America.
[00:03:38]  That said, long term, This is still not good.
[00:03:42]  And you must remember this it is a breaking of our president's promise.
[00:03:47]  He ran on a platform to do things at home, not to stir up conflicts in the Middle East.
[00:03:55]  No new wars.
[00:03:56]  That was part of his platform.
[00:03:57]  So, we're not getting the deportations here where we need them in America, but we are getting some geopolitical war on the other side of the planet.
[00:04:08]  That's the big point that we need to be aware of.
[00:04:11]  Another one of the misnomers that the boomers will always tell you is we got to fight the Muslims over there so that we don't have to fight them here.
[00:04:17]  But the Muslims who are here in our country, because we're not getting the mass deportations we were promised, they are now agitated.
[00:04:25]  There was a shooting that just occurred in Austin, Texas, which is less than an hour away from our studio.
[00:04:31]  Where three individuals have been shot and killed and 14 others injured.
[00:04:35]  You can almost hear the collective sigh of relief from the transgender community.
[00:04:39]  They were probably very pleased to hear that the latest shooting, for once, was actually just another good old fashioned Islamic terrorist instead of another transgender going into a Christian school and shooting up children.
[00:04:51]  The final thing that I'll say in the opening of this episode is you know, we were all white pilled for a moment there.
[00:04:58]  You know, I was drinking some of the Kool Aid, I have to admit, excited about, you know, the U.S. golden age and we're getting back.
[00:05:05]  To our roots, the military is going to be based again.
[00:05:08]  We're going to root out wokeness and BLM and all the gays and transgenders and minorities from our military.
[00:05:15]  It's going to be made up of strength once again.
[00:05:17]  And what does that strength look like in practical terms?
[00:05:20]  Well, it looks like young white Christian men.
[00:05:24]  But we're going to fill our military with young white Christian men just in time to potentially send them into the sand to die?
[00:05:31]  Yeah, that sounds about right.
[00:05:32]  The black pill comes right back.
[00:05:34]  You take the white pill and then, oh, it's followed up by.
[00:05:38]  A disheartening realization.
[00:05:40]  So, hopefully, and I think it's quite possible, just for the record, I want to state this on record.
[00:05:45]  Hopefully, this is a quick event.
[00:05:47]  The American casualties are minimal and the tax dollars will be maximum, but at least the casualties will be minimal.
[00:05:55]  It won't last that long.
[00:05:56]  There'll be some kind of economic boom or benefit for America, at least in the immediate.
[00:06:01]  And Iranian Christians will be treated with much more dignity.
[00:06:05]  I genuinely pray and hope for that.
[00:06:07]  Even if that is the case, there'll be a lot of MAGA, neocon types saying, I told you so, this was great, look, we're already done in just a few days, and blah, In the long run, I truly believe this will come back to haunt us.

=== Nuance on Crusades (11:59) ===

[00:06:22]  We're not just looking to the next 15 minutes of convenience and ease, we're looking down the tunnel.
[00:06:29]  We're looking to the future.
[00:06:31]  There is one group that benefits more than anyone else, and it is Israel.
[00:06:35]  So the question is, do we trust them?
[00:06:38]  And the answer should be, No.
[00:06:41]  Tune in now.
[00:06:41]  This episode is brought to you by our premier sponsors, Paleo Valley, Fat Fins, and Knickknack.
[00:06:49]  Warning this product contains nicotine.
[00:06:52]  Nicotine is an addictive chemical.
[00:06:54]  Society, real society, has always stood on three magnificent pillars caffeine to kick things off, alcohol to smooth the edges, and nicotine, which is the true gentleman's secret weapon.
[00:07:07]  See, in its glory day, nicotine fueled the greatest minds, the boldest leaders, and the quiet legends.
[00:07:14]  Who simply got the job done.
[00:07:16]  But somewhere along the way, we lost the plot.
[00:07:19]  Effeminacy began to creep in.
[00:07:21]  Men traded their duty for comfort, and now big tobacco sells us nothing but compromise.
[00:07:28]  Nicknack raises the old banner again.
[00:07:31]  This is nicotine elevated, honest, and intentional, manufactured here in the United States by a family owned company that refuses to compromise.
[00:07:42]  See, Nicknack is a fully dissolvable nicotine lozenge made with just six.
[00:07:47]  Premium ingredients.

[00:08:29]  Radical Christian nationalist pastor, Joel Webbin.
[00:08:32]  Joel Webbin.
[00:08:33]  I want to talk about Joel Webbin.
[00:08:36]  Joel Webbin is an excellent.
[00:08:58]  Let's go.
[00:08:58]  Let's go.
[00:08:59]  We are bombing Muslims in the Middle East.
[00:09:02]  That's what America was built on.
[00:09:04]  Back to it.
[00:09:05]  Back to it.
[00:09:06]  Some guys do it because they're beholden to Israel, blackmail, Epstein files.
[00:09:10]  But then some guys, like Dick Cheney, God bless him.
[00:09:14]  He was bombing brown people in the Middle East without even being listed in the Epstein files, just for the love of the game.
[00:09:19]  For the love of the game.
[00:09:20]  For the love of the game.
[00:09:21]  All right, we have today Kongman with us.
[00:09:24]  We're super honored.
[00:09:25]  Tell our listeners where they can find you.
[00:09:27]  Who are you?
[00:09:28]  What do you do?
[00:09:28]  Yeah, thanks for having me, guys.
[00:09:30]  I am a creator, streamer, yapper on the internet for all intents and purposes, an honorary rooftop Korean.
[00:09:40]  Talk about right wing politics and traditionalism, and for all intents and purposes, Christian nationalism, because I do believe in nationalism.
[00:09:48]  I believe that Christ is king, and the Christian worldview should be what governs our country and every single country and nation on earth.
[00:09:56]  And so, yeah, you can find me on YouTube, on X, on Instagram, everywhere where politics is being discussed.
[00:10:03]  Awesome.
[00:10:03]  That's great.
[00:10:04]  I mean, I'm glad to hear he's a pundit too because I just feel like we don't have enough of those.
[00:10:08]  People on the internet.
[00:10:09]  That's the problem, man.
[00:10:10]  When you think about it, it's like if you woke up this morning and you didn't think to yourself, first thought of the day, you know what?
[00:10:16]  But are there enough podcasters?
[00:10:19]  What if we had a podcast about politics?
[00:10:21]  You know what I mean?
[00:10:22]  From a right wing perspective.
[00:10:25]  I mean, that's what we need.
[00:10:27]  We need government control of podcasts, Mike.
[00:10:29]  If you want to go to Amazon and purchase a podcast, you need a permit.
[00:10:32]  We need reviewing.
[00:10:34]  Let's say you have a coffee sponsor.
[00:10:36]  I don't know.
[00:10:37]  All right.
[00:10:37]  So, just to put our listeners at ease, it's like, okay, dude, you guys are talking, you opened up talking about bombing brown people, Muslims in the Middle East, and you made a joke about it being positive.
[00:10:48]  Like, I follow this channel for one reason, one reason only.
[00:10:51]  You better get in this episode and make it about the Jews.
[00:10:54]  And so, I assure our listeners, do not fear.
[00:10:57]  We will find a way to do that, and it's not hard at all.
[00:11:00]  We do have massive concerns about Israel as it pertains to this latest event with declaring war on Iran.
[00:11:06]  And so, we're going to be talking about that.
[00:11:07]  But here's the deal.
[00:11:09]  We are striving for, you know, just a grade above the rest, a little bit of high IQ Israel awareness.
[00:11:16]  We don't want to be stupid and foolish and have, you know, egg on our face five days from now.
[00:11:24]  And the reality is, like, let's just be honest, okay?
[00:11:26]  So we're going to provide, I know this is going to sound, you're going to be like, gay.
[00:11:30]  We're going to provide a little bit of nuance.
[00:11:32]  I hate to even use a word.
[00:11:34]  I hate to even use a word because nuance for the longest time has just been a euphemism for cowardice, right?
[00:11:39]  I'm a coward.
[00:11:40]  I'm not going to actually say the blatant, obvious truth.
[00:11:43]  So, I'm going to give so many disclaimers and so many caveats that by the time I get done saying something that's generally true, I've basically said nothing true at all, right?
[00:11:52]  And it stems from cowardice.
[00:11:54]  However, we're talking about geopolitics, guys.
[00:11:57]  We're talking about war.
[00:11:58]  We're talking about different warring factions and ideologies and Islam and Christianity and Judaism.
[00:12:07]  You want to be courageous, and we're going to be, by the grace of God and the power of the Spirit, we're going to be courageous.
[00:12:13]  But we have to be nuanced because this is not simple.
[00:12:16]  There's nothing simple about this, it's incredibly complex, and we want to offer a perspective for you today that hopefully, by the grace of God, will stand the test of time and we won't look like idiots two weeks from now.
[00:12:27]  Okay, so that being said, here's the deal: Muslims are not our friends.
[00:12:34]  I gotta start with that.
[00:12:35]  Here's the deal: for 1300 years, you need to be crusade maxing.
[00:12:41]  Okay, you need to read Defenders of the West, you need to read Sword and Scimitar, you need to read God's Last Battalion, you need to read.
[00:12:48]  Rodney Stark, Raymond Abraham, all these books that we all kind of in the new Christendom, new Christian right sphere, we all read them back in what was it, 2024, 2023, 2024.
[00:13:00]  Exactly.
[00:13:02]  So if you didn't go through your phase where you read R.R. Reno and Return of the Strong Gods, and when you read Christopher Caldwell, despite some of the things that we would disagree with, and the entitlement, the Age of Entitlement, Age of Entitlement, on the civil rights side.
[00:13:16]  If you didn't go through your crusade phase and you're reading, Raymond Abraham.
[00:13:20]  You need three different pins on your chest.
[00:13:23]  Yeah.
[00:13:23]  And you just skip to hating Jews, right?
[00:13:26]  It's like, no, uh uh.
[00:13:27]  You don't get to do that.
[00:13:28]  You need to enter in through the gate.
[00:13:30]  You know, Jesus talks about those who climb over the fence.
[00:13:33]  You know, like, no, you need to enter through the narrow gate.
[00:13:36]  You need to come right, come correct.
[00:13:39]  You need to read about the Crusades.
[00:13:42]  You need to be crusade maxing, all these things.
[00:13:45]  Here's the point the point is Islam is not a friend of Christianity.
[00:13:50]  It has never been a friend of Christianity.
[00:13:53]  Israel, Judaism, world Jewry, I would go so far.
[00:13:57]  That doesn't mean each and every Jewish individual, but it does mean it's not just the government of Israel.
[00:14:02]  I understand that that's more palatable.
[00:14:05]  I understand that that's more defensible and provides for you plausible deniability.
[00:14:11]  Well, I'm just criticizing the government of Israel or maybe Netanyahu or this or that.
[00:14:16]  No, guys, there are people who are not even Israeli citizens, but they are Jews and they have a particular Of affection for the nation state of Israel because they instinctively know that if things hit the fan in the West, they have somewhere to go back to.
[00:14:32]  That doesn't make these people malicious, but it does mean that their affections and their allegiance is divided.
[00:14:37]  World Jewry is a conversation that needs to be had, and we understand the dangers of these things.
[00:14:42]  We've spoken about them ad nauseum, and we're going to speak about it some more today.
[00:14:46]  That said, if you've seen some of our stuff about Israel, you've seen my book, Judeo Christianity as a heresy, and you're a Muslim and you think, hey, these are my guys, you are sorely mistaken.
[00:14:59]  Islam is a formidable enemy of Christ.
[00:15:05]  And we are not joining in an alliance with Muslims.
[00:15:09]  That said, Muslims and Jews, for that matter, and everybody else, are made in the image of God.
[00:15:16]  There's an innate dignity.
[00:15:18]  We wish the best for Muslims in the Middle East.
[00:15:21]  We wish the best for Jews in the Middle East.
[00:15:23]  But in both cases, the best requires repentance and turning to the Lord Jesus Christ.
[00:15:29]  Now, there are many Christians.
[00:15:31]  It's certainly not a majority, but you're talking about 90 million people.
[00:15:35]  It's different than Iraq.
[00:15:36]  This is much bigger.
[00:15:37]  90 million people in Iran, and you're talking about a lot of Christians.
[00:15:43]  And if what just took place actually lessens oppression and persecution for Christians, praise God.
[00:15:50]  But the reality is, we have no guarantees that that's what's going to happen.
[00:15:53]  This is different than Venezuela, where we knew who was going to take the place, and we knew that they were going to be positive towards America, and of course, positive towards Israel, and all those kinds of things.
[00:16:03]  We don't know what the result of this is going to be.
[00:16:05]  It could go either way.
[00:16:07]  It could be really bad.
[00:16:08]  It could be really good.
[00:16:09]  And we're acknowledging that from the outset.
[00:16:10]  We're not just going to say, oh, this is definitively bad and it's going to be terrible and blah, blah, blah.
[00:16:14]  And then again, like I said, two weeks from now, we have egg on our face because things actually work out positively.
[00:16:20]  So I think that there is a benefit, or at least let's say it like this a potential benefit and potentially a great, significant benefit for the people of Iran, those who are Muslims who have been oppressed by a totalitarian regime, and especially those who have.
[00:16:35]  Christians who have been persecuted.
[00:16:37]  It could be really good for Iran.
[00:16:40]  It certainly will.
[00:16:41]  Every decision we ever make, we know it'll be really good for Israel.
[00:16:44]  But the question still remains how is it good for us?
[00:16:47]  How is it good for us?
[00:16:48]  So I'm going to turn it to Wesley and Antonio briefly, and we're going to carve out a little bit of a position here and bring some of the facts, some of the numbers, some of the metrics.
[00:16:56]  And then what we want to do, because we have Kongman as a special guest, but instead of just going back and forth, I want to get our position at the outset since it's our channel and a lot of the people are our listeners.
[00:17:06]  So we want to get our position out.
[00:17:08]  But then I want to give it to Kongman because he's going to agree with us, but he's also going to disagree.
[00:17:13]  And I want him uninterrupted, and I know I'm talking to myself.
[00:17:16]  But uninterrupted, I want to give you like a straight 10, 15 minutes to just, because it takes time.
[00:17:21]  It's like, why can't you say it quick?
[00:17:23]  I don't know, because I have thoughts that are actually at a high level and complex and take more than 15 seconds to articulate.
[00:17:30]  So I want to give you, give our position, then give your position uninterrupted, and then see where we agree, where we disagree.
[00:17:39]  And then we're going to definitely be taking super chats today.
[00:17:41]  So get them in now.
[00:17:42]  We take super chats on YouTube and Rumble.

=== Axis of Resistance (14:58) ===

[00:18:22]  The explicit stated reason that the United States has entered this war, according to President Trump, is Iran's long history of terrorism and funding of terrorism in the Middle East.
[00:18:31]  And when it comes directly to Iranian, the IRGC, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, them initiating direct action on U.S. military bases, U.S. allies, you don't necessarily have that.
[00:18:43]  But what you do have is a systematic funding of proxies over the last 20 years that have explicitly carried out terrorist attacks in the Middle East.
[00:18:50]  From 2005 to 2011, In Iraq, explosive form penetrators killed over 190 U.S. soldiers.
[00:18:57]  Per declassified Pentagon documents, the U.S. officials have long assessed that their IRGC was a key supplier in enablement of this capability.
[00:19:04]  In 2019 2021, you had rocket attacks on the K 1 airbase in Iraq, Camp Tahaji north of Baghdad, and the Erbil International Airport in Iraq.
[00:19:13]  Some of them killed two U.S. personnel, another killed a coalition contractor.
[00:19:17]  In Syria, rockets and drones fired against U.S. positions.
[00:19:20]  In 2023, there's a coordinated Iraq Syria Jordan proxy campaign, 2023 to 2024.
[00:19:26]  And so, Iran has been always viewed as kind of the source of this funding, the source of this suppliers, because when you look at every other country in the Middle East, they've been destabilized by civil war, fallen into different factions, whether it be Hezbollah in the north, whether it be the Houthi rebels.
[00:19:39]  They're not enabled at the type of scale that Iran, a country of 90 million people with over a million member strong army, a nuclear enrichment program, ballistic missiles, the only one capable of really funding and putting meat to the bones of those operations has been Iran.
[00:19:53]  Iran, since the 1979 Iranian revolution and the installation of the Islamic regime there, Has hated America.
[00:20:00]  The chance of death to America, they're not exaggerated.
[00:20:02]  They hate us.
[00:20:03]  They hate America.
[00:20:04]  And they violated the terms of the nuclear nonproliferation treaty that they signed, which was their agreement.
[00:20:09]  We're not going to create any more bombs.
[00:20:11]  It would seem at three different sites, if not more, Iran has engaged in systematically enriching uranium in order to build nuclear weapons.
[00:20:19]  And then they would be the only Islamic force in that region with nuclear weapons.
[00:20:24]  And I think we could all agree don't love that.
[00:20:26]  Don't love an Islamic nation, a big nation with a lot of enemies around it, saying, and in our back pocket, We've got a couple nukes.
[00:20:33]  And so President Trump laid out the reason we're going to war is this long history of state sponsored terrorism, this long history of antagonism towards the U.S., this long history of being anti Western, this long history of oppressing their people.
[00:20:45]  As Christians specifically, the church there has been growing, but they face brutal repression.
[00:20:51]  Iran only recognizes of the 12 different ethnicities that are there, there are three of them that are historically Christian.
[00:20:56]  And those are actually, they are allowed to worship, they have some semblance of freedom.
[00:21:00]  But conversion from Islam over to Christianity.
[00:21:04]  Is explicitly forbidden by law, punishable by up to death.
[00:21:07]  And these churches that are allowed to be recognized, Farsi, Persian, the language that's spoken there in Iran, is not allowed to be used to prevent conversions of native Iranians.
[00:21:16]  And so they've killed their people that have protested against the Ayatollah.
[00:21:18]  They've persecuted Christians.
[00:21:20]  They've sponsored terrorism all over the region.
[00:21:22]  And for those reasons and more, President Trump finally came out and said, We're going to do it.
[00:21:26]  We're going to strike leadership.
[00:21:27]  We're going to strike at their nuclear program.
[00:21:29]  And we're going to strike their ballistic missile program.
[00:21:32]  And that would be kind of the strongest case I could make.
[00:21:35]  Why is it in America's interest?
[00:21:36]  Because they have been an agent of chaos in the Middle East.
[00:21:40]  Go ahead.
[00:21:40]  Yeah, no, that's great.
[00:21:41]  I agree with that.
[00:21:42]  And the problem is, really, is that Trump publicly has kind of waffled on what exactly the purported objective is, right?
[00:21:50]  And so he's come out and he's released this six minute video where he says, We will stay there.
[00:21:55]  We will be on the offensive until our objectives are achieved.
[00:21:58]  And so at the beginning, the objective was their nuclear capabilities.
[00:22:01]  It was, We don't want Iran to have nukes.
[00:22:04]  We don't want them to be able to.
[00:22:05]  Threaten or leverage geopolitically the fact that they have nukes?
[00:22:08]  Same thing Abraham Lincoln said.
[00:22:10]  I remember he was like, No, that's exactly right.
[00:22:12]  Iran is two weeks away from nukes.
[00:22:14]  Yeah, yeah.
[00:22:15]  But the point being, when Trump says something like that, I think the majority of Americans can stand up and say, Yeah, I agree with that, that they should not have nukes.
[00:22:23]  But then he'll say things like, Iran, take back your country.
[00:22:28]  And basically implying, Hey, we're partly doing this as an objective for regime change.
[00:22:34]  And that means that the clerics and the body, the A body of experts that they choose from to put the supreme leader into power, that whole system has to change.
[00:22:44]  And that objective is a lot more daunting.
[00:22:47]  And I think when you look at the polls, for example, looking at a Reuters poll or a Pew Research poll with respect to how Americans feel about American involvement in Iran, 80% say we don't like it.
[00:22:58]  I think the regime change element, the regime change objective, particularly is the thing that most Americans just can't get on board with.
[00:23:05]  Right.
[00:23:06]  I mean, because we just got done with that.
[00:23:07]  We just got done with that.
[00:23:08]  And Trump ran on a campaign saying, You're going to get mass deportations.
[00:23:13]  We have not gotten everything that would benefit us domestically has ultimately fallen short.
[00:23:19]  It hasn't happened.
[00:23:20]  And then the things he promised not to do so he promised, I will do these things here.
[00:23:24]  They didn't materialize.
[00:23:26]  I won't do these things over there.
[00:23:28]  And those things are materializing, right?
[00:23:31]  No new wars, no regime change, no this, no that.
[00:23:33]  We're getting that.
[00:23:35]  All those things we're getting.
[00:23:37]  The things he said he would do here.
[00:23:39]  In the United States, we're not getting.
[00:23:41]  And that is incredibly frustrating.
[00:23:42]  So let me finish our position by just talking about Israel just for a moment.
[00:23:49]  My concern is that although this could end up being good for Iran and the people of Iran, and especially Christians in Iran, it's definitely good for Israel.
[00:24:04]  And in the Middle East, Iran was really the only country, right?
[00:24:08]  You have peace treaties.
[00:24:09]  Between Egypt, Jordan as well.
[00:24:12]  And so, different countries where there are peace treaties that Israel has, and then some of the countries that they're at odds with that are rivals.
[00:24:22]  Well, of those countries that pose a threat to Israel, Iran was number one, number one by far.
[00:24:28]  It was the premier check and balance in the Middle East, holding back Zionist power, or at least minimizing it, mitigating it.
[00:24:36]  With the board being cleared, and Iran, if they are now off the table, what it allows for is it could be good for the U.S., probably not.
[00:24:45]  Could have more potential to be good for Iranians, but it's definitely good for Israel.
[00:24:51]  And this is not something that I'm saying, I'm predicting is going to happen in two weeks, right?
[00:24:55]  I'm not going to sit here and say it's going to happen overnight.
[00:24:57]  But I see.
[00:24:59]  Conceivably, the potential with Iran no longer providing a check and balance against Israeli power that they could assume more geographic land hegemony power in the Middle East, expanding their borders, which they have always wanted to do,
[00:25:14]  using the U.S. military in order to take out their enemies so that they can seize land, and then from that, building resources, working out trade agreements with different people maybe China, maybe India, whatever it may be, and over time, again, not next year, but over decades.
[00:25:31]  Get to a place where they're no longer dependent on us whatsoever, where they become a rival superpower in a geographically strategic area, being able to side with some of our enemies.
[00:25:43]  And I don't see how setting the stage for even the potential maybe it never happens, but setting the stage for even the potential of Israel to become a rival superpower in decades to come to America, I don't see how that benefits America.
[00:26:00]  I'm really struggling.
[00:26:01]  So that's my big long term concern.
[00:26:04]  Long term, I'm not looking at this and saying, you know, it'll for sure be bad for the Christians in Iran.
[00:26:10]  Maybe it will, maybe it won't.
[00:26:12]  Or it's for sure bad for us.
[00:26:15]  The reality is maybe the casualties are small.
[00:26:18]  Maybe it's quick, right?
[00:26:19]  Maybe in five days.
[00:26:19]  It's not Iraq 2.0.
[00:26:21]  Right.
[00:26:21]  And you just have to think like in five days from now, if we're done and we're out and very few, if any, Americans actually die and there's good economic, at least immediate benefits for us, Mark Levin is going to have a field day.
[00:26:36]  With the America First guys.
[00:26:38]  I told you, he's going to be trying to rub egg in our face.
[00:26:40]  And that's why we're saying this, so that we don't paint a target on our chest and make ourselves low hanging fruit for the Zionist shields to use us as an example for why America First and that movement is retarded.
[00:26:53]  We've got to be better than retarded.
[00:26:54]  So, some of you guys, I can't believe you're saying this.
[00:26:56]  And why aren't you hating on the Jews?
[00:26:59]  I've seen a couple of accusations of being shills in the comments.
[00:27:01]  We're doing this because if you were doing the podcast and the live stream right now, you would be making Mark Levin's day.
[00:27:08]  Well, and can I?
[00:27:09]  You're welcome.
[00:27:10]  Here's an illustration that some people who know sports might understand.
[00:27:13]  If you imagine your number one best basketball player on the team, he takes a shot from half court.
[00:27:19]  Right.
[00:27:19]  Right.
[00:27:20]  And the coach is saying, no, no, no, no, bad shot, low percentage shot, but then he makes it.
[00:27:25]  And the coach is like, yes, yes, yes.
[00:27:26]  So that's kind of where the position we're at, where America, the best player on the team, has just taken a shot.
[00:27:33]  Right.
[00:27:33]  That is a bad shot.
[00:27:35]  It's a low percentage shot.
[00:27:36]  It's more likely than not that it won't work out.
[00:27:38]  Why?
[00:27:39]  What do I look at?
[00:27:39]  History.
[00:27:40]  I look at the last five times.
[00:27:41]  America's tried to do regime change.
[00:27:43]  But there is a chance it goes in.
[00:27:45]  Correct.
[00:27:46]  And in that scenario where it goes in, we're going to be the people who are saying, like, oh, yeah, bad shot, but I'm glad it worked out.
[00:27:53]  Why am I glad it worked out?
[00:27:54]  Because I don't want the worst for America.
[00:27:55]  So we want to be wise and go on public record today, acknowledging that that is a possible outcome.
[00:28:02]  So that our cause, the larger long term cause of America first and rooting out poisonous Zionism and the stranglehold that Israel has on our country, so that if this Half court shot actually swishes and goes in.
[00:28:20]  That the Zionists and neocons can't use it against us and say, Look, you guys went on.
[00:28:24]  Like, no, no, no, no.
[00:28:26]  Rewind the tape, look at the disclaimers, look at the caveats.
[00:28:29]  We acknowledge this possibility.
[00:28:31]  So, in the immediate, could be good for Iran.
[00:28:35]  Probably won't be, but might have some kind of tangible benefit for us.
[00:28:39]  Right?
[00:28:39]  So, I'd say like 10% chance it's good for America and casualties and those kinds of things are mitigated.
[00:28:45]  That's possible.
[00:28:46]  50% chance it's really 50 50 for the Iranian people, whether or not it's good or not.
[00:28:50]  And that's because the most likely successor, without actually backing factions in Iran, actually backing rebels, actually backing those that are trying to take power.
[00:28:59]  The most likely successor is going to be the IRGC.
[00:29:01]  It's going to be another Islamic caliphate.
[00:29:03]  Or it's going to be civil war, and civil war will kill millions.
[00:29:07]  Civil war will bring in famine.
[00:29:08]  It'll bring in bombings.
[00:29:09]  It'll bring in all of these human rights violations.
[00:29:12]  There's very few scenarios where, especially the Christian base, the Iranian people, make it out well.
[00:29:17]  And that's just an objective statement of fact.
[00:29:18]  They could, but most likely what fills the gap is the existing security apparatus.
[00:29:22]  So, last thing, and then we're going to get Kongman's view.
[00:29:25]  But what is NXR?
[00:29:26]  If anybody asks you, what is NXR Studios' official position?
[00:29:29]  Our position is this.
[00:29:30]  My position is this 10% chance, 10 to 20% chance it's good for America in the immediate.
[00:29:36]  50% chance it's good for the Iranians in more of an intermediate kind of middle term timeline.
[00:29:42]  100% chance it's good for Israel immediately and long term.
[00:29:47]  And benefiting Israel to this degree is, I think, a liability long term for America.
[00:29:54]  So I don't like it.
[00:29:55]  It's a half court shot.
[00:29:57]  I don't think we should have shot that shot.
[00:29:59]  Could go in the net, could benefit us a little bit economically in the brief timeline, could benefit spiritually, politically, Iran in a more medium timeline, and definitely will benefit Israel immediately and in a long timeline.
[00:30:22]  And that should be a concern if you love our country and see Israel's negative influence.
[00:30:28]  So that's our position in a nutshell.
[00:30:30]  Kongman, what do you think?
[00:30:32]  I want to preface this by saying that I'm not a geopolitics or foreign policy expert by any means.
[00:30:38]  I think it's interesting, but I don't speak out on him because I know more about Korean history.
[00:30:42]  I know more about Christendom and Christian history and the American tradition and the Christian political tradition in America.
[00:30:50]  But I think the biggest thing that we have to understand is that this is a very nuanced and difficult situation because I think it is because it's so volatile.
[00:31:02]  We don't know what's going to happen.
[00:31:03]  And so, because we don't know what's going to happen, we can't predict exactly how it's going to turn out.
[00:31:08]  And so, it's like that half court shot.
[00:31:09]  I think that's a perfect analogy.
[00:31:11]  But if it does go in, I do believe that if it does go in, then it's like a buzzer beater.
[00:31:16]  Like, it really is a game winner.
[00:31:18]  And why I say that is because, for example, economically, 90% of Iran's oil exports go to China.
[00:31:26]  90%.
[00:31:27]  And then 30%, I think it's 30%, of Chinese imports for oil come from Iran.
[00:31:32]  So, then if we're able to install a pro American regime in Iran, then yes, it'll be objectively bad for our number one geopolitical threat, at least when it comes to our economic competitor.
[00:31:44]  Economic competitor, China.
[00:31:46]  And we have an advantage there.
[00:31:49]  We can bring in oil, and Iran has the third largest oil reserves in the world.
[00:31:54]  And that's estimated to be around like a trillion dollars in revenue for America.
[00:32:00]  And so, there's a lot of these economic benefits as well.
[00:32:02]  On top of crippling China, because I do think this is also nuanced that a lot of the anti CCP and anti China hatred in America, especially among the right wing, is a little overblown.
[00:32:15]  I think it is a little overblown because they're stuck in Cold War dynamics.
[00:32:18]  But at the same time, they are a threat.
[00:32:20]  They are a foreign, but also a domestic threat with a lot of the Chinese nationals tied to the CCP in America, in our college campuses.
[00:32:29]  But objectively, on that front, it would be an objective good.
[00:32:32]  Now, on top of that, you know, Wes, you're mentioning about Iran being the number one state sponsor of terrorism worldwide.
[00:32:40]  And yes, with the axis of what do they call themselves?
[00:32:43]  The axis of resistance.
[00:32:44]  The axis of evil or something like that.
[00:32:45]  Yeah, whatever they call themselves, depends on your source.
[00:32:47]  But yeah, they fund Hezbollah, they fund Hamas, and these have been.
[00:32:51]  Groups that have killed over a thousand Americans in the past few decades.
[00:32:55]  So, that is objectively a problem.
[00:32:57]  So, all of these reasons, the majority of Americans don't want war in Iran because they don't see it as viable or necessary for American interests.
[00:33:07]  But when you start to frame it in this way, actually, support for military action against Iran does go up because you're able to frame it as better for America, but also a defensive measure against terrorism against Americans.

=== Misplaced Military Decisions (14:53) ===

[00:33:20]  Now, with all that being said, that's all contingent on regime change working.
[00:33:26]  Yep.
[00:33:27]  But it's not.
[00:33:28]  It is so volatile and it's so unpredictable that we don't know.
[00:33:32]  And Iran is a country with 80 to 90 million people, but 99% of Iranians are Muslim.
[00:33:39]  99%.
[00:33:40]  So, what are the chances that the Iranian people, which, yes, there are a lot of them protesting, but the Iranian regime, previous regime, killed tens of thousands of them?
[00:33:51]  What are the chances that they want to install a pro America, pro West, and pro Christian?
[00:33:56]  Because that's my priority as a Christian, like nations that honor God and governing authorities that submit to Christ.
[00:34:04]  That's my priority ultimately.
[00:34:06]  But what are the chances?
[00:34:07]  And the chances are very slim.
[00:34:09]  And like Wes, you were saying, the IRGC is most likely going to be the main power that still controls most of Iranian politics and holds the reins in Iran.
[00:34:20]  And so, because of all of that, I don't even think it's a half court shot, I think it's a full court shot.
[00:34:26]  The chances of it working out are very, very slim.
[00:34:31]  And Iran is not Afghanistan.
[00:34:33]  It's not, you know, it's like twice the size of Texas.
[00:34:35]  It's a humongous country.
[00:34:36]  It's mountainous, right?
[00:34:38]  It's not flat like Iraq and Afghanistan.
[00:34:41]  So there are so many different confounding factors that make it different than our never ending wars in the Middle East, our other and previous excursions.
[00:34:49]  But that's why I'm very, very skeptical of this.
[00:34:53]  And at the same time, I do find the messaging to be very confusing where they say Iran poses an existential threat to America, where yes, they don't like America, sure.
[00:35:01]  But also, part of that is because America and Israel have been meddling in the Middle East for so long, right?
[00:35:06]  In the late 1950s, when they ousted the socialist leader, the Iranians literally in one generation are like, actually, no, we're going to take it back.
[00:35:13]  So they hate it.
[00:35:14]  And because America and Israel have been the main destabilizers in the Middle East, that actually exacerbates tension and exacerbates anti American sentiments in the Middle East.
[00:35:26]  And then so, yes, we should have military installations in the Middle East because we do want that area to be pro America, broadly speaking.
[00:35:33]  I do think there's a lot of misplaced decisions and unwise military action and political action that's been taken in the Middle East.
[00:35:43]  And so, all things considered, I do think it is literally not 10, I think you said 10%, Joel.
[00:35:47]  I think it's like a 1% chance that this actually works out in our favor in the ways that it eliminates the terrorist networks funded by Ayatollah.
[00:35:59]  It allows for a pro American regime to come in and give all the oil reserves to America.
[00:36:04]  I think it is very, very slim.
[00:36:06]  And I do think that.
[00:36:08]  It was not a good decision to go and strike Iran.
[00:36:11]  And again, like I was saying, the messaging is very confusing.
[00:36:15]  They say that they pose an existential threat, but then they're also a paper tiger.
[00:36:19]  So, how can that exist at the same time where, oh, they're such a threat to America, we have to go in and bomb them?
[00:36:25]  But, oh, it'll be easy because they're just a paper tiger.
[00:36:29]  I don't know how that can exist at the same time.
[00:36:31]  Also, I find the messaging for, oh, we need to liberate the Iranian people problematic.
[00:36:37]  From what?
[00:36:37]  So that we can introduce feminism, so we can introduce gay race communism.
[00:36:41]  You see all these videos online of these Iranian diaspora women going like cheering on, yeah, freedom for women, while they're really skankily dressed and they don't look very.
[00:36:52]  Modest.
[00:36:53]  And I'm like, is that what we want?
[00:36:54]  I mean, we see how that destroyed America.
[00:36:56]  When we're exporting democracy and freedom, that actually just means degeneracy and ways of life that is apart from and a departure from the law of God.
[00:37:06]  So I don't think that liberation of the Iranian people should be a priority.
[00:37:12]  Yes, we should want Christians to be able to practice their faith in Iran freely.
[00:37:18]  Yes.
[00:37:18]  But the chances of that being a stable government that is pro America and pro Christian, it is very slim.
[00:37:24]  And so I believe that.
[00:37:26]  It wasn't a good decision, but the reality is that the decision is made.
[00:37:30]  The decision is made.
[00:37:32]  And so there's a lot of people who hate Israel, hate the Jews.
[00:37:35]  And so they're going, I wish I hope Iran has nukes and I hope they nuke America.
[00:37:39]  I'm like, whoa, whoa, how are you supposed to be America first?
[00:37:43]  And there's just this increased, I would say, low IQ anti Semitism that's happening where they hate Israel and Jews so much that any criticism of the Iranian government, any criticism of Islam is, oh, you're a Zionist shill.
[00:37:56]  And I believe that.
[00:37:58]  It's happened.
[00:37:59]  It wasn't a good decision, but we are in Iran at this point, and we should pray for and advocate for a swift, swift victory over whatever it is and objectives, whatever that is, and to pull out as soon as possible with minimal, minimal casualties and without boots on the ground, because there are technically no boots on the ground.
[00:38:17]  All the soldiers, I think four soldiers have died so far, and they are because of the attacks that Iran has lodged against military installations in the Middle East surrounding Iran.
[00:38:27]  So rest in peace to them.
[00:38:28]  And I do think any.
[00:38:30]  One person, even if it's a small amount, I think any American soldier that is dying for wars for Israel is a casualty and it is a tragedy that no one should be.
[00:38:38]  But at the same time, the reality is we're there right now.
[00:38:40]  And so, what should we advocate for and what should we desire moving forward?
[00:38:45]  And is that America is swift, they do what they need to do and get out as soon as possible?
[00:38:49]  Amen.
[00:38:50]  Very well said.
[00:38:51]  Real quick, I want to give a shout out to Fat Thins.
[00:38:56]  Fat Thins, this is actually probably the most difficult live ad read I've ever had to do because they only sent us five bags and it was like two weeks ago.
[00:39:04]  And we forced ourselves to, at the end of the day, save one bag.
[00:39:09]  And it was really hard.
[00:39:10]  So, four bags went like immediately within like 24 hours of the shipment coming in.
[00:39:14]  And the fifth bag.
[00:39:15]  The fifth bag on top of the fridge where you couldn't reach it, George?
[00:39:17]  Yeah, they literally put it on top of the refrigerator.
[00:39:19]  This is not an exaggeration.
[00:39:20]  And it was out of my reach and out of my eyesight.
[00:39:22]  And so, I didn't find the bag.
[00:39:24]  And so, we made it.
[00:39:25]  We made it with one bag left.
[00:39:27]  This is how you know it's good.
[00:39:28]  There are three ingredients beef tallow, right?
[00:39:31]  Instead of all the seed oils and things like that, beef tallow.
[00:39:34]  Potato salt, beef tallow, potato salt.
[00:39:38]  These are actually good for you.
[00:39:39]  You can enjoy a healthy snack without turning into an effeminate, high estrogen woman.
[00:39:46]  Okay, so Fat Thins, check them out.
[00:39:48]  I think we have a lower third there.
[00:39:49]  The QR code so that you can save 10% is NXR.
[00:39:55]  NXR, go to fatthins.com, fatthins.com, use NXR as a QR code, and you will get 10% off.
[00:40:02]  All right, Wes, give us a few more thoughts, a few more details about what's going on, and then I want to make sure we have plenty of time for super chats.
[00:40:09]  Well, I do want to highlight an angle.
[00:40:10]  We put Nick Fuentes on the thumbnail.
[00:40:12]  He's someone that very early on he called this, and his angle is unique.
[00:40:16]  And we talked about it in, I think it was the second episode that we released in our special series with him.
[00:40:20]  And it was The Inner Workings of World Jewry.
[00:40:23]  So, why are we involved in Iran?
[00:40:26]  And there are all these different reasons, of course.
[00:40:27]  There's terrorism, all those things we talked about.
[00:40:29]  But most specifically, why we, the United States, have gone that way, there's a real element.
[00:40:34]  And I would hesitate to attribute 100% or 90% of it.
[00:40:38]  But there is an undeniable major element.
[00:40:40]  And that is because American Jews have very much so lobbied the Republican Party on behalf of.
[00:40:46]  Action in support of Israel.
[00:40:48]  If you remember, if you know your history, Jews have traditionally generally been left wing, whether this was communism in the early 1900s, even voting pattern wise.
[00:40:56]  I believe over 80% of American Jews voted for Kamala Harris.
[00:40:59]  So the left has always been kind of the home of Jews.
[00:41:02]  There's more of a revolutionary spirit that they have.
[00:41:04]  They brag about it.
[00:41:05]  Civil Rights Act.
[00:41:06]  Civil Rights Act.
[00:41:06]  Oh, yeah.
[00:41:07]  And they're like, oh, we did that.
[00:41:08]  Yeah.
[00:41:08]  Hart Cellar Act.
[00:41:09]  Look it up.
[00:41:10]  LGBTQ.
[00:41:11]  We did that.
[00:41:12]  I'm like, what?
[00:41:13]  Yeah.
[00:41:13]  First transgender surgeries was a German Jew, Magnus Hirschfeld.
[00:41:17]  Yeah.
[00:41:17]  They will literally say that even abortion is not just a virtue, but they'll consider it a Jewish sacrament.
[00:41:23]  So, how did all of those characters, all of those people, this group, why did they come over to conservatives and to the Republican Party?
[00:41:30]  Well, as Nick laid it out, and he's right, in October 23, the American Jews were shocked when the left, especially on college campuses, turned against the Jews and supported the Palestinians.
[00:41:42]  And this goes hand in hand with the revolutionary motif.
[00:41:45]  In this case, the oppressor oppressed paradigm.
[00:41:46]  It wasn't Jews being oppressed in Eastern Europe or being oppressed in pogroms.
[00:41:50]  It was the poor Palestinians that were getting raked over the coals by Israel's response to October 7th.
[00:41:56]  So these left wing Jews were shocked that the left kind of turned on them, that these young radical activists on these leftist college campuses, as well as a lot of the professors, the presidents, the staff, and the faculty, were kind of sympathetic to the Palestinians.
[00:42:11]  They were sympathetic for those cries of from the river to the sea.
[00:42:15]  And so you saw this shift, and Nick picked it up and he saw it as well.
[00:42:18]  He looked at where the money was going, he looked at where the support was going.
[00:42:21]  And going into Trump's campaign, Bernard Marcus.
[00:42:24]  Co founder of Home Depot, big support of pro Israel efforts like AIPAC, Paul Singer, Jan Combe, David Zalek, the Adelson.
[00:42:32]  So Sheldon Adelson has passed.
[00:42:34]  He was a big supporter in Trump's first term, but Miriam Adelson.
[00:42:37]  These American Jews heavily invested in the Republican Party becoming, winning the presidency, winning the Senate, and winning the House.
[00:42:45]  And it's that element, again, we don't know exactly to what degree.
[00:42:48]  We don't know what else is involved, but it's undeniable that at some level, American Jews have lobbied again and again and again for.
[00:42:56]  The president, whoever that may be, whether it be Barack Obama, whether it be Donald Trump, get involved, do our bidding for us.
[00:43:03]  And so, whose behalf is this on?
[00:43:05]  Well, we look and we see that the majority of Americans don't want this involvement.
[00:43:10]  80% were polled and said, We don't want a war in Iraq.
[00:43:13]  Republicans are about 55%, and a lot of that would be your older, kind of boomer constituency.
[00:43:18]  But all said and done, Democrats, Republicans, independents, it's one in four.
[00:43:22]  It's like 27%.
[00:43:23]  So, Americans didn't want it.
[00:43:24]  Now, the thing we did want was mass deportations, which.
[00:43:27]  And I'm sympathetic to the struggle.
[00:43:30]  It's not easy to take 10 million people and get them out of a country.
[00:43:33]  But in LA, I mean, as a baseline, the first year.
[00:43:38]  Yeah, we need to 10x the 10.
[00:43:41]  But we got beat in Los Angeles.
[00:43:42]  You saw rioters waving Mexican flags, pelting LAPD officers with bricks off of bridges in Minneapolis.
[00:43:50]  What has happened?
[00:43:50]  The Trump administration withdrawn.
[00:43:52]  So we've withdrawn in LA, we've withdrawn in Minneapolis, we've lost on the domestic front.
[00:43:56]  The SAVE Act doesn't look like it's being passed, and those are all vastly popular.
[00:44:01]  The majority of Americans support ID in federal elections.
[00:44:04]  The majority of Americans, Trump was elected, even the first term, the Syrian civil war displaced millions of refugees across Europe and across the United States.
[00:44:12]  And in his first term, he was saying no to these refugees, no to mass immigration.
[00:44:16]  So the majority of Americans want that.
[00:44:18]  They wanted it in 2016.
[00:44:19]  They wanted it in 2024.
[00:44:21]  But the things that we want have not been put at the forefront.
[00:44:23]  And yet the donor base, the elites, American Jews that have lobbied for years to get this done, they actually got what it is they wanted.
[00:44:32]  And once again, who got left at the bottom?
[00:44:35]  Americans.
[00:44:36]  Americans.
[00:44:36]  The evangelical, white evangelicals that put him into office statistically.
[00:44:40]  What did we get?
[00:44:41]  Zero.
[00:44:41]  Nothing.
[00:44:42]  Immigration is still continuing.
[00:44:44]  No IDs in federal elections.
[00:44:45]  And again, I'm sympathetic that these are not the matter of pushing the button.
[00:44:49]  But where there is a will, there is a way.
[00:44:51]  And it seems the will is behind, as it turns out, the will of the donors who put them into the White House.
[00:44:56]  That's right.
[00:44:56]  Go ahead.
[00:44:57]  I was just going to say, I've been hearing that Tim Walz has some nuclear aspirations for a nuclear arms race.
[00:45:06]  Minnesota is literally like two weeks away from nuclear.
[00:45:08]  Yeah, so I've heard India is as well.
[00:45:10]  We have to be safe.
[00:45:12]  I'd say that's the biggest tragedy.
[00:45:13]  All these tax dollars being used against Iran when we could be bombing India.
[00:45:18]  That's heartbreaking.
[00:45:19]  No, but seriously, I said this with Venezuela and I said this with Iran.
[00:45:24]  If we have the capability of using the US military for regime change in foreign countries, why can we not go in and deport the foreign invaders that are happening that are here on American soil?
[00:45:40]  Like, why can we not put a stop to the foreign invasion?
[00:45:44]  And you can chalk up the benefits of.
[00:45:48]  Iran and foreign excursions, all you want.
[00:45:50]  And I think there is room to be, yeah, like actually maybe there is potential benefit for Americans.
[00:45:56]  But the order of operations matters.
[00:45:58]  And like we saw in Austin yesterday with the mass shooting, with the Muslim, Senghalese, 53 year old naturalized citizen, right?
[00:46:09]  He was radicalized by what America is doing and Israel is doing in Iran.
[00:46:14]  But he shouldn't have been here in the first place.
[00:46:17]  And he was also a naturalized citizen, which is also a conversation to be had where Legal immigration is actually maybe far more harmful than illegal because, at least, illegals you can get them out, they have no legal standing here.
[00:46:31]  But with legal, they're protected by law.
[00:46:35]  And so, we do have to have a broader conversation of not only mass deportations of illegals, but also denaturalization and deportations of people who hate America, hate its history, hate its founding, hate its culture, hate our God.
[00:46:48]  And that's a conversation to be had.
[00:46:49]  But the order of operations matters, and this is what.
[00:46:53]  Makes a lot of right wingers and a lot of patriots frustrated about the Trump administration is that you have the resources and you have the energy to focus on Venezuela, on Iran, but literally our country is being invaded.
[00:47:08]  Like America, there is a foreign invasion happening on American soil that in any other period in history, any country would have been justified in going to war to protect their own country.
[00:47:19]  And I'm not saying that we should advocate for political violence or that I want war in this country, but it is not hateful and it is not wrong to deport.
[00:47:27]  Those who are illegal, mass deport tens of millions, but also those who are naturalized American citizens, but their allegiance lies with a foreign state.
[00:47:36]  Their allegiance lies elsewhere, especially with foreign adversaries of America.
[00:47:41]  They have no business being an American citizen.
[00:47:43]  And in America's past, we have revoked citizenship from many people because they were communists, because they were traitors.
[00:47:49]  And we have literally people in Congress, in positions of leadership in our states, governors, city council members who are.
[00:48:00]  Avowedly and openly, brazenly loyal to other countries than America.
[00:48:05]  You saw Rashida Tlaib yesterday say, US and Israel are doing this in Iran.
[00:48:11]  This is who they are, right?

=== Mass Deportations Priority (08:24) ===

[00:48:14]  They.
[00:48:14]  Rashida Tlaib does not consider herself an American.
[00:48:17]  So if you don't consider yourself an American, then you have no business being here.
[00:48:21]  And so I do think that we need to continually push.
[00:48:23]  And yes, the Trump, during the first year of Trump's administration, there was a net negative amount of migration.
[00:48:30]  Great.
[00:48:31]  But there's a very short timeframe in which we can achieve mass deportations.
[00:48:36]  When we control the house, The Senate, the White House, and if you want to say the Supreme Court as well, which, you know, the Supreme Court has been working against Trump, so that's a whole nother conversation.
[00:48:45]  But yeah, like we need to really, really be okay with taking mass political action to deport foreign invaders, because if we don't do it now, then it'll never get done.
[00:48:55]  And we have a limited timeframe to do so.
[00:48:57]  And so this is, I think, the biggest contention that a lot of people disenfranchised and disillusioned by the current Trump administration have.
[00:49:04]  And I think they're correct.
[00:49:05]  I think we should focus more.
[00:49:07]  And the number one sole priority, the first, second, third priority, Of the Trump administration and the GOP has to be mass deportations.
[00:49:15]  Everything else, yes, geopolitics matters because geopolitics and foreign policy dictate where we got our resources and all these things, right?
[00:49:21]  But the number one priority has to be mass deportations.
[00:49:25]  Everything else, from wanting to abolish abortion, from wanting to protect our children from the scourge of transgenderism and this radical gender ideology, from securing jobs for Americans and the future of Americans, to have safe neighborhoods again, all these things are downstream.
[00:49:40]  From mass immigration.
[00:49:42]  If mass immigration did not happen, Zorhan Mamdani would not be the mayor of New York City, one of America's, if not America's greatest city, and all these things.
[00:49:49]  And so this is the number one priority, and it has to be the number one priority.
[00:49:54]  Everything else is secondary.
[00:49:55]  Yeah, well said.
[00:49:56]  So this is the way it works.
[00:49:58]  If you're not aware, you need to be aware.
[00:50:00]  MAGA has become the neocons.
[00:50:03]  MAGA is, there's really no difference.
[00:50:05]  Right wing Jews push for war in the Middle East and get us involved.
[00:50:08]  Left wing Jews then open the doors to Toledo and say, hey, all the refugees, they need to come here.
[00:50:14]  The boomer slop of, well, we've got to fight Muslims over there so that they don't have to come, you know, and we have to fight them here.
[00:50:22]  The irony, tragic irony, is that it's too late.
[00:50:26]  That's already happening.
[00:50:27]  By our involvement in Iran, we are agitating Muslims who are already here because Jewish policies let them here.
[00:50:36]  And you already have mass shootings happening just over the weekend in a bar in Austin.
[00:50:42]  And it's Muslims.
[00:50:42]  Stabbing and shooting as well on the DC Beltway that happened.
[00:50:46]  So you have agitated Muslims.
[00:50:48]  Who are here, we are actually going to have to fight here.
[00:50:51]  And they're agitated because of our involvement fighting another war for Israel in the Middle East.
[00:50:57]  And they're here because Jewish influence pushed for policies towards immigration.
[00:51:04]  So the Muslims are already here because Jews let them in.
[00:51:08]  And now that we're fighting another war for Israel in the Middle East, it's agitating those Muslims who are here and they are doing damage on American soil.
[00:51:16]  That's what's going on.
[00:51:17]  And sadly, With all the high hopes that many had for MAGA in this second administration right now with Trump, he is in some sense indistinguishable, at least as it comes to the Middle East from the neocons and fighting once again another war.
[00:51:36]  And we pray to God by his grace that our sons, and because we're such a wicked nation, we put women in war, that our daughters as well will not have to go and die in the desert for Israel.
[00:51:48]  So, all that being said, my biggest concern again is long term.
[00:51:52]  Clearing the board, taking out one of the chief checks and balances Iran, when it comes to the Middle East, towards Israeli power that sets the stage for the potential, may not happen, but the potential for Israel to become a superpower in the Middle East that would rival America and that over the future, they would do incalculable harm towards our nation and our prosperity.
[00:52:14]  To me, that is the biggest concern because I actually care about America.
[00:52:18]  I'm not mega Israel first, making Israel great again, but.
[00:52:23]  Truly being America first, America only.
[00:52:27]  And so that's my big concern looking long term are we setting the stage?
[00:52:32]  And I think we are.
[00:52:32]  It may not be our goal, but I think it very likely could become the outcome setting the stage for Israel's advancement that they could become a rival superpower to the United States.
[00:52:42]  I think that that is a huge concern.
[00:52:45]  Whether or not it's good for Iran, it's 50 50.
[00:52:47]  And whether or not it's good for us, even in the immediate, is an extremely rare chance.
[00:52:52]  All right.
[00:52:53]  So I. I'll give it to you, but then we want to go ahead and get to some of the super chats.
[00:52:58]  If you have something that you want to say, go ahead and get it in now.
[00:53:01]  We take super chats both on Rumble and on YouTube.
[00:53:04]  Go ahead.
[00:53:04]  I was just going to say, I am very sympathetic.
[00:53:06]  Richard Wormbrand was a priest that was tortured.
[00:53:09]  He wrote a book, Tortured for Christ, by the Romanian Communists for 10 years.
[00:53:12]  And they actually told stories in the camps that they would say, maybe this will be the year the Americans come.
[00:53:17]  I'm very sympathetic to this idea that's pervaded our history that we are the global peacekeepers.
[00:53:21]  And whether it's Christians being persecuted in Nigeria or Communism as it expanded during the Cold War, that America is the hope of the world that will come to save those who are downtrodden, those who are persecuted, those who are tortured, especially Christians.
[00:53:33]  That really resonates with me.
[00:53:34]  That's a beautiful image, and we have the military to do it.
[00:53:37]  We have the world's greatest military, and what better use of it than to go bomb Muslims and communists that are torturing and hating and killing Christians in the name of Jesus?
[00:53:47]  So I love that as a foreign policy.
[00:53:49]  The only thing is you have to have your own house in order first.
[00:53:52]  When our house is in order, we can intervene.
[00:53:54]  And I actually think it would be awesome and God glorifying to do so.
[00:53:58]  Do not persecute the true Israel, the real Israel, which is those who have faith in Christ, or America will fly a B 52 and bomb your ass.
[00:54:05]  Right.
[00:54:06]  Praise God.
[00:54:07]  That'd be awesome.
[00:54:07]  However, in our nation here, where our sons are dispossessed, when violent criminals that are here illegally raping, murdering women, we have no business worrying about that.
[00:54:17]  We get them out first, and then we get to do all of these wonderful things on behalf of God's people, and it glorifies God.
[00:54:22]  But neglecting your house to do all of those things with tentative benefit.
[00:54:28]  That's not glorifying to God at all.
[00:54:30]  Get your own house in order first, and then we can be the global peacekeeper the world needs.
[00:54:33]  100%.
[00:54:34]  Very well said.

[00:55:50]  And we've got a few super chats over on YouTube.
[00:55:52]  Make sure to get them in.
[00:55:53]  This is your last chance.
[00:55:55]  Breaking news you're fat.
[00:55:59]  And so am I. Let's just be honest.
[00:56:00]  I'm sitting here recording a commercial, practically spilling out of my chair.
[00:56:04]  We're not energetic.
[00:56:06]  We're not masculine.
[00:56:07]  We're not as healthy as we should be.
[00:56:09]  We're men, right?
[00:56:10]  You're a husband, you're a father.
[00:56:11]  We should be hard to kill.
[00:56:12]  And let's be honest, we're making it easy on our enemies.
[00:56:15]  So what's the problem?
[00:56:17]  The problem is you're fat because you're hungry.
[00:56:19]  And when you're hungry, you're eating snacks that's a bunch of goy slop.
[00:56:22]  There's not a lot of good things in snack form in between meals.
[00:56:26]  As a man, we need raw milk, eggs, beef.
[00:56:30]  Those are the things, but it's hard to find them at 9 30 in the morning when I feel like I'm ready, like a hobbit, for a second breakfast.

=== The Hyphenated Heresy (06:25) ===

[00:56:39]  So here's the deal.
[00:56:40]  After long searching, I have found, I'm serious, I've found a solution.
[00:56:44]  Go to paleovalley.com.
[00:56:46]  Paleovalley.com.

[00:57:44]  All right, welcome back.
[00:57:45]  We're going to go ahead and get into super chats here and I'm going to start off with Liberty Republic on Rumble.
[00:57:49]  They sent in $10 and asked a question.
[00:57:51]  Said, Joel, do you know of any good churches in the DC area?
[00:57:54]  I'm new to Christianity and I was considering Christ Church.
[00:57:57]  DC, but your discussions about Doug Wilson on Tucker gave me second thoughts.
[00:58:01]  What do you think, Joel?
[00:58:01]  He asked directly to you.
[00:58:04]  None.
[00:58:05]  I mean, that's my thought.
[00:58:07]  Like, you know, like Capitol Hill Baptist is there, Mark Dever.
[00:58:12]  If you just want, you know, good gospel preaching, then Dever is faithful on that.
[00:58:16]  And he's fairly good at ecclesiology and church polity and some of those things.
[00:58:21]  So if you're just looking for someone who's going to preach the gospel faithfully, then you could go to the Christ Church CREC Church.
[00:58:28]  You could go to Dever's Church.
[00:58:30]  But you just need to be aware that whether it's nine marks with Deborah or whether it's the CREC and that particular church, when it comes to some of the cultural issues, when it comes to some of the political issues, Mark Deborah is going to be absolutely trash.
[00:58:48]  Truly.
[00:58:49]  I mean, truly trash.
[00:58:51]  The CREC will be better in terms of left versus right, Democrat, Republican kind of dynamic.
[00:58:58]  Deborah will be bad on that.
[00:59:00]  You won't be able to tell whether or not he's a Republican or a Democrat.
[00:59:03]  If he's right or if he's left on cultural issues, anything.
[00:59:06]  The CREC church will be clearer on that.
[00:59:08]  They'll be more conservative in that regard.
[00:59:11]  But the CREC has made that calculus to ultimately what it really comes down to.
[00:59:17]  And this is not slander, it's perfectly true by the horse's mouth.
[00:59:22]  Doug Wilson has explicitly said that Christian nationalism is not something that we will be able to actually achieve unless we partner with the Jews.
[00:59:31]  That's his view.
[00:59:31]  So for him, it's either a total secular leftist takeover.
[00:59:36]  Or Judeo Christian nationalism.
[00:59:38]  I'd like Christian nationalism.
[00:59:39]  Best I can do is Judeo Christian nationalism.
[00:59:41]  That is the CRC's position.
[00:59:43]  That doesn't mean each and every individual CRC church agrees with Doug, but Doug is massively influential, Doug Wilson.
[00:59:50]  And so I would say that if you're a part of that church, they're going to have some good conservative stuff on the cultural things.
[00:59:58]  They're going to have good biblical gospel preaching, but on some of the political things, especially as it comes to the Judeo influence, they are bought and paid for.
[01:00:09]  And you need to be aware.
[01:00:10]  And then, Deborah, you have some good preaching, exegesis, and gospel.
[01:00:14]  But it's going to be, he's going to be bad on the Judeo thing politically and culturally.
[01:00:19]  He's going to be no better than Tim Keller.
[01:00:24]  I mean, he's like, you will be left questioning.
[01:00:27]  You could be there for 10 years and you'll be like, is he a Democrat or a Republican?
[01:00:31]  You won't know.
[01:00:32]  I do appreciate how the Overton window has shifted so far to the right that Doug Wilson, who used to be considered far right two, three years ago, is now considered not far right enough.
[01:00:41]  So that's good.
[01:00:41]  I think I appreciate Doug Wilson's ministry and what he's done, but I do think he gets this issue particularly incorrect where.
[01:00:48]  Yes, like we just need Christianity.
[01:00:51]  Like that's all we need, truly.
[01:00:52]  And obviously, we need to have other tertiary things to consider and extra biblical philosophies and things like that that are in line with traditional Christian doctrine, sure.
[01:01:02]  But we cannot partner with those who, you know, blaspheme the name of Christ.
[01:01:08]  That's right.
[01:01:08]  And those who believe.
[01:01:09]  What fellowship does light have with darkness?
[01:01:11]  Yeah.
[01:01:11]  And those who believe that our Lord, our God, is burning in hell in poop.
[01:01:17]  And that's just something that I cannot get behind.
[01:01:20]  Because Christ is truly king.
[01:01:22]  He is Lord.
[01:01:23]  Jesus is Lord.
[01:01:24]  He is king.
[01:01:24]  He is master over all things, and all governing authorities should submit to him.
[01:01:30]  And even our laws, our laws should submit to the will and the law of God.
[01:01:34]  And so, yeah, like these are people who reject Christ.
[01:01:38]  And you guys talk about this all the time.
[01:01:39]  So I'm, you know, speaking to the choir here.
[01:01:41]  But they are people who said, may his blood be on our hands and our descendants.
[01:01:46]  And so these are not people where we don't have to be malicious or cruel to them.
[01:01:50]  But yeah, like they, they, Are not like particularly our allies, and they are just using Christians to achieve their means.
[01:01:59]  And as Christians, we should stand firm in the Word of God and in truth, and knowing that the Lord is going before us and we have nothing to fear.
[01:02:07]  Right.
[01:02:07]  Yeah.
[01:02:07]  On that note, if you want to brush up on some of the receipts and the reasons why Judeo Christianity is absolutely false, I had the privilege of writing a book with my co author, Jordan Hall.
[01:02:22]  And it's right over there on the shelf.
[01:02:23]  It's probably hard to see, but it's called The Hyphenated Heresy.
[01:02:26]  The Hyphenated Heresy subtitle is Judeo Christianity.
[01:02:31]  So, me and Jordan Hall, we wrote this, and it's got a lot of footnotes, right?
[01:02:34]  So, it's not just giving you the information, but it gives you actually the receipts proving the arguments that we make.
[01:02:40]  The Hyphenated Heresy, Judeo Christianity.
[01:02:42]  You can check it out on Amazon.
[01:02:44]  We just published it January 2nd, is when we launched the book.
[01:02:48]  So, it's only been a couple months.
[01:02:49]  And by God's grace, it's already sold over 3,500 copies.
[01:02:53]  So, we're really.
[01:02:55]  Really, really humbled by that.
[01:02:56]  But check it out.
[01:02:57]  The hyphenated heresy, Judeo Christianity.
[01:02:59]  All right, now we've got some super chats from YouTube.
[01:03:02]  Antonio, can you take the first one?

=== Sober Minded Arguments (11:07) ===

[01:03:04]  Yep.
[01:03:04]  Roger Stone sent $10.
[01:03:05]  Thanks for that.
[01:03:06]  And says, I want to know how specifically this can spiral into a global conflict involving China, Russia, and other Iranian allies that combat U.S. allies like the U.K. and Saudi Arabia.
[01:03:17]  This is a good question.
[01:03:18]  I'm sure everyone's sort of this is circulating in everyone's mind, which is like, what is the likelihood that World War III is what emerges from this conflict, specifically this conflict?
[01:03:28]  Bombing of Iran, this war with Iran.
[01:03:30]  I think it's really low.
[01:03:32]  So I was just looking into this.
[01:03:33]  So the Foreign Ministry of Russia, they've obviously come out and they've condemned the attack in Iran.
[01:03:37]  They're obviously friendly with the regime.
[01:03:39]  And they basically accused the U.S. of hiding behind the nuclear facility argument, really just to install a new regime.
[01:03:46]  China, likewise, has come out and said, hey, we disagree with this.
[01:03:49]  But in both cases, both between China and Russia, and those are the countries we should be most concerned with as far as geopolitical rivals go, in both cases, they've said they want to see a diplomatic solution.
[01:04:01]  So I think the most likely scenario is China, Russia come to the table and they want to help broker peace.
[01:04:06]  And specifically, they're going to seek that the existing regime remain in power in Iran because that's.
[01:04:12]  The regime that they're friendly with.
[01:04:14]  If it becomes a pro US regime, they are on the losing end of the deal.
[01:04:17]  And you have to remember, and this is really geopolitics is like a chess game, you have to remember that there's other pieces on the board.
[01:04:24]  So, right now, obviously, Russia is engaged in a war with Ukraine, and Russia doesn't really want to tick off America because Russia wants America to help Russia negotiate the end of the war in Ukraine, and particularly in a sense that's favorable to them.
[01:04:37]  So, Russia doesn't want to go in full steam ahead and say, hey, yes, we're big weapons traders or weapons suppliers for Iran, and we're just going to go full throttle on the Iranian regime.
[01:04:46]  They don't want to tick off America.
[01:04:48]  They kind of want to play both sides here.
[01:04:50]  So they probably are going to come in and say, Hey, America, you're going to get some concessions.
[01:04:54]  Israel, you're going to get some concessions.
[01:04:56]  But as a consequence, we want some concessions as well in Ukraine.
[01:05:00]  And we want you guys to give a little favor to us there.
[01:05:04]  And then, likewise, China and the whole Hong Kong thing.
[01:05:06]  And I'm not an expert here, but you can also imagine there's a scenario in which China's like, Hey, you get what you want in Iran, but we get what we want in Hong Kong.
[01:05:13]  And so there's a lot of pieces on the board.
[01:05:15]  No one really wants a full scale global conflict.
[01:05:18]  And so the most likely scenario is there's going to be some give and take.
[01:05:21]  Yes, Russia and China will continue to sort of implicitly back Iran.
[01:05:26]  And honestly, the only reason Iran's still going strong, like Iran's foreign minister just came out and said, we will not negotiate with the U.S.
[01:05:34]  And the only reason he can say that is because his weapons supplier is in Russia.
[01:05:38]  And so we have to recognize that it's going to be a little tricky and complicated, given that this is becoming more or less a proxy war in the Middle East.
[01:05:47]  And most likely scenarios that we're going to see brokered peace here probably in the next couple weeks or so.
[01:05:54]  Yep.
[01:05:54]  All right.
[01:05:55]  One more super chat.
[01:05:56]  This is from PeteB773.
[01:05:59]  He said, You, he's talking to me, should have asked E. Michael Jones, who you just had, we just had him on the show, about Christians in Iran since he was actually there.
[01:06:11]  And he basically, E. Michael Jones was there, and he's arguing that Christians were not actually being persecuted in Iran.
[01:06:21]  Quite to the contrary, Christians were treated with respect.
[01:06:25]  I got a study up here, so it totally depends what years that you're looking at.
[01:06:29]  Persecution always, even in Rome, the early church, it ebbed and flowed.
[01:06:32]  But since the 12 day war in 2025, so a report came out, documents 254 arrests of Christians for being Christians in 2025, nearly double the record of the previous years.
[01:06:42]  Rights advocates say the surge reflected a strategic shift by the Islamic Republic to use national security frameworks to crush religious dissent.
[01:06:50]  And as we articulated earlier on, there are three ethnic groups that have been historically Christian that are state protected.
[01:06:55]  They're allowed to have churches, they're allowed to worship.
[01:06:57]  They're not allowed to do so and hold those services in Farsi, the native language of the land there, ancient Persian.
[01:07:03]  But those ethnicities are protected.
[01:07:04]  But again, for anyone else converting, it's really bad.
[01:07:07]  And since the war that just happened in 2025, Iran has built up and gone to war and said, hey, we're going to bring more of these people in for interrogation, for questioning.
[01:07:16]  We're throwing women in jail.
[01:07:17]  We're giving them sentences that are 15, 20 years long.
[01:07:21]  So certainly he could have visited, and the Ayatollah at the time, there wasn't a lot of Christian persecution going on.
[01:07:26]  It was steady Eddie.
[01:07:28]  The status quo.
[01:07:29]  But most certainly, and especially with the protests that are happening, for one, to their own citizens that are protesting, crackdown.
[01:07:35]  And to Christians, we've seen in the last year as well a crackdown by the regime.
[01:07:38]  Yeah.
[01:07:39]  So pro Muslim anti Semitism is just low IQ slop.
[01:07:44]  And it won't be tolerated on our channel.
[01:07:46]  I'm sorry.
[01:07:47]  And if we disappoint you and if we lose followers, so be it.
[01:07:50]  But we are not pro Muslim.
[01:07:51]  We are pro Christian.
[01:07:53]  We are Christian.
[01:07:54]  Yes.
[01:07:55]  Unapologetically.
[01:07:55]  So I think that here in the year of our Lord 2026 in these United States, Zionism is a bigger problem than Islam.
[01:08:05]  I'll say that again.
[01:08:05]  I think that Zionism is a bigger problem, substantially, significantly so.
[01:08:10]  I've been clear about that.
[01:08:12]  I make no apology.
[01:08:13]  But the fact that I think Zionism is a bigger problem, and I'm confident about that, does not mean that I am on the same team with Muslims.
[01:08:21]  I'm sorry.
[01:08:23]  Muslims hate Christians, they do.
[01:08:26]  And we have 1,300 years of proof.
[01:08:30]  What do you think the Crusades were about?
[01:08:33]  What do you think was going on?
[01:08:34]  So this is the kind of low hanging fruit where we paint a target on our own chest for us to get clowned on and dragged.
[01:08:44]  Publicly, forever.
[01:08:46]  You want to win and not just LARP, but you actually want to win.
[01:08:50]  You need to make reasoned arguments.
[01:08:52]  And if you get up and start publicly saying on the internet, Muslims are friends of Christians and they're great, and we've never really had any beef, it's all just been a psyop.
[01:09:04]  The Crusades didn't even happen.
[01:09:06]  That was made up by Zionist Jews, you know, to like, then you're an idiot.
[01:09:11]  You're an idiot and you're not going to win.
[01:09:14]  So, Zionism is, I think, the most formidable enemy of Christian nationalism here in the West.
[01:09:21]  I believe that.
[01:09:22]  I really do.
[01:09:24]  But because I am a Christian nationalist and because I want to win, I want a Christian nation that is free of Zionist control.
[01:09:32]  And I want a world and the West, Western Christian civilization, to be free of world Jewry, which is real and it is a real problem.
[01:09:42]  Because of that, and because I'm committed to that cause, I refuse.
[01:09:47]  To shoot myself in the foot by saying retarded things like Muslims are pro Christ.
[01:09:55]  That is retarded.
[01:09:56]  You will not beat Zionism by saying, giving in to all of the propaganda, pro Islamic propaganda.
[01:10:07]  That's not a winning strategy against Zionism because it's not true.
[01:10:11]  You will ultimately be found out.
[01:10:13]  You have egg on your face.
[01:10:15]  And Mark Levin, if you are promoting. Muslim countries, you're promoting Islam to stick it to the Jews.
[01:10:25]  Mark Levin loves you.
[01:10:29]  You probably are getting paid by the Zionists.
[01:10:31]  And if you're not, you should write a sternly worded email because you should be getting royalties.
[01:10:36]  Like, seriously, if you're not being paid by Bibi, by Netanyahu, and you're pushing forward and promulgating pro Islamic talking points to stick it to the Zionists, and Israel's not paying you.
[01:10:52]  You should raise hell because the worker is worthy of the wages, and you should be getting paid by Israel because you are doing their bidding.
[01:10:59]  You may not think you are, but you are.
[01:11:01]  All right, that'll do it for us.
[01:11:02]  Go ahead.
[01:11:03]  Just two things I just want to add benefit of being a live show.
[01:11:06]  So, first thing, yes, when I was referring to the chess pieces on the board, so it'd be Taiwan and the war in Ukraine.
[01:11:16]  But also, just per the Wall Street Journal, Trump says Iran strikes to continue for four to five weeks.
[01:11:22]  And so, this has just come out.
[01:11:24]  And it looks like they're actually changing the rhetoric a little bit because the four main objectives that he listed regime change was left out.
[01:11:31]  So, I think they're picking up that Americans are not happy about that.
[01:11:34]  And they're going to go in a little bit more specific direction.
[01:11:37]  So, more to come out about that soon.
[01:11:40]  Kongman, any final words?
[01:11:42]  I do think that we need to continue to chimp out.
[01:11:45]  Because the reality is, say what you will about the Trump administration, they are listening.
[01:11:50]  Like, they do listen to the American people and they have a pulse on what Americans want and don't want.
[01:11:55]  And so, if you continue to chimp out, things will turn for the better.
[01:11:59]  Now, does that mean that we should always blackpill?
[01:12:02]  We shouldn't always blackpill either.
[01:12:03]  But we shouldn't always white pill and say, oh, everything's great.
[01:12:06]  Everything's under control.
[01:12:08]  Patriots in control.
[01:12:10]  Got what I voted for.
[01:12:11]  Yeah.
[01:12:12]  I think we need to continue to chimp out.
[01:12:14]  And people call me a traitor.
[01:12:16]  They call me all kinds of things.
[01:12:17]  I get called the Zionist shill, and then I get called a traitor and all these things.
[01:12:21]  But ultimately, our eyes are on and should be on mass deportations 100%.
[01:12:28]  Continue to advocate for that.
[01:12:29]  And I think going back to what you said, I think as people on the right, and especially Christians on the right, We need to be better at being more sober minded, level headed, tactful, and precise in what we believe and how we navigate the world.
[01:12:44]  Because I actually used to be a Zionist.
[01:12:46]  I used to be a Zionist.
[01:12:47]  I used to be a dispensationalist and I bought into all the normative evangelical points.
[01:12:50]  But the reason why I was so reluctant to give that up was because I saw how the left was acting and I saw how a lot of people were siding with Muslims.
[01:12:59]  A lot of anti Zionists and anti Israel people were siding with Muslims.
[01:13:03]  And as a Christian, I'm saying, hey, I don't believe in Islam, I don't like Islam.
[01:13:07]  And I won't side with Muslims because they are the number one persecutors and aggressors against Christians worldwide.
[01:13:13]  So, yeah, but then what won me over to the arguments and to the truth about what's going on in the world and the truth regarding Israel and the proper Christian traditional understanding of the Jews is reasoned arguments.
[01:13:25]  Is that sound arguments?
[01:13:27]  And so, yes, there is a time and place for provocative rhetoric and owning the lives and all that stuff, but I think at the end of the day, we have to be sober minded, level headed, and to give true, full reasoned arguments to.
[01:13:41]  As Christians, in order to navigate the world, because what is our end goal?
[01:13:45]  Our end goal isn't likes and clicks, right?
[01:13:47]  Our end goal isn't cloud.
[01:13:48]  Our end is to save the West for the glory of God and for the benefit and to secure the future for our posterity.
[01:13:56]  So, with that in mind, we have to be wise, as innocent as doves, but as wise as serpents, and to be prudent and to navigate everything where there is a time and place for everything, but at the same time, we can't just be constantly, you're a Zionist shill, oh, you're an anti Semite.

=== Saving the West (01:04) ===

[01:14:11]  Like, we have to move past that conversation and name calling and.
[01:14:15]  Pointing fingers.
[01:14:16]  And I really hope that we can elevate our conversation to a better place because politics has genuine ramifications of people dying and people suffering.
[01:14:24]  And so while we can joke and we can meme, which is all good, we need that.
[01:14:27]  I love memeing, I love joking and having fun, but we have to understand also politics is very serious and has serious ramifications.
[01:14:34]  And it can really be between life and death for many, many people.
[01:14:39]  Yep.
[01:14:39]  Well said.
[01:14:39]  All right.
[01:14:40]  That'll do it for us today.
[01:14:42]  Stay tuned on Wednesday at 12 p.m. Eastern Time.
[01:14:44]  We'll be coming out with the final installment of my 10 part interview with Nicholas.
[01:14:49]  Jay Fuentes.
[01:14:50]  And so make sure you catch the 10th and final episode this Wednesday at 12 p.m. Eastern Time with myself and Nick Fuentes.
[01:14:58]  And we hope that you have benefited by this content.
[01:15:01]  We hope that you are praying for our nation and that we get out as quickly as possible and stop picking fights with people all around the world, that we get our own house in order.
[01:15:14]  And we wish you the best and Godspeed.
