2025 AND THERE'S A GENOCIDE IN THE WORLD - WHERE'S THE OUTRAGE?
The Druze people of Syria are suffering at the hands of Islam. The Christians and Druze of Syria are being butchered and cast aside by the world. Where is the moral outrage from those who scream Free Palestine? Do we not care about the women and children being raped and tortured? The men being forced to jump to their death from the roof of their own homes? Today we are graced with an amazing guest Dame Brigitte Gabriel, who is herself a survivor of Islamic terror. You think it can't happen here... you're wrong. @RogueRecap @LyndaMick @@ACTforAmericaSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
She's on Filtered, unforgiving, and understandably annoyed by everyone.
Make sure you like and subscribe to our podcast and follow her on X at Rogue Recap.
Welcome everybody to the Rogue Recap.
I am Linda McLaughlin, your host, and I'm super stoked today.
As you guys know, I normally do my show solo, but today I'm here with royalty, actually.
Dane Brigitte Gabrielle is with us.
And she's a really good friend of mine.
So I'm fortunate to just call her Brigitte, but it's just fun because she is a dame and she's been knighted uh in Europe by Malta, right, Brigitte?
Yeah, I've been in Europe 2016.
Yeah.
So she's kind of a big deal.
Not to mention the fact that she is a survivor of some of the most horrific things one could ever possibly imagine.
And uh she's one of those people that can tell us what's actually happening in the Middle East.
Little background for you.
So I met Brigitte back in 2006, give or take.
Uh, somehow we're both still 30.
It's incredible.
And she was one of these people who, when I met her, she was so humble about what she had been through.
She was a Lebanese Christian, she lived underground, she learned underground, she spoke Arabic and Hebrew and English, and here she was telling people what it was like to survive this Islamic takeover that was happening in Lebanon at the time of her childhood, and actually lived to tell the tale, which is so amazing because so many don't make it.
And that's what we're seeing today with what's happening in Syria between Swaita and Damascus and in Syria, and we have Jelani acting like, oh no, it's nothing, it's not a big deal.
It's just internal strife, no big deal, right?
That's why we need the Israeli defense forces to come over and help us.
But so few people are talking about it, and I feel like it should be screamed from the hilltops because these are our brothers and sisters.
These are people of Christ.
They are over there, they are being butchered, masquered, raped, killed, and we're not paying attention.
But one person is speaking louder than anybody, and that's Brigitte.
So Brigitte wrote this book because they hate an understanding it all.
And I read it, and I have to say it has stayed with me for 20 years.
And I have never forgotten all the things that I read about her.
We've become wonderful friends.
And I invite her to the show today.
Welcome to the rogue recap.
Brigitte.
Linda, I'm so excited to be with you.
This is so exciting.
Congratulations on your show.
Thank you.
Oh my goodness.
I mean, you know, usually we talk on the phone.
But actually, we get to see each other, talk to each other.
I see you all the time.
I see you all the time.
Your beautiful face is all over TV.
You know, my voice is on radio and my accent goes with it.
But you I see all the time, always trying to sort of educate people because I think there's a gross misunderstanding and a true lack of just how serious what is happening in the Middle East.
And I feel like people are like, oh, it's over there.
It's not over there.
It's here.
It's here in Texas, it's here in New York, Minnesota, and Michigan.
And if you think for one second that this can't happen here, then I would love to live in the fantasy island you're on.
If you're taking tickets, please, I'd love admission.
It's insane that people do not understand how serious this is.
And so I really wanted two things.
I would love for you to just give your background a little bit, what it was like for you growing up, being this person with just your parents underneath.
I mean, the story is crazy.
Living underneath and hiding and only getting a little bit of air at night when they couldn't see you and hoping they didn't see you and hiding.
I mean, just give us a little bit of background on you, because I really think people would love to know that.
Thank you, Linda.
Well, it's an honor to be with you.
And thank you for asking that question because a lot of people see me on TV commenting on news.
And a lot of people do not know my background.
They just think I'm, you know, just another political pundit talking about the Middle East issues.
Well, I'm not only an expert on the Middle East, I'm a survivor.
I'm an eyewitness to terror who lived to tell about it.
I was born and raised in Lebanon, which used to be Paris of the Middle East.
Here's another thing that people do not know.
When they think of Lebanon, they think of this terrorist country controlled by Hosballah, controlled by Iran.
They don't realize that this actually happened in my lifetime.
Right.
And so uh, you know, we were open-minded, we were fair, we were tolerant, we were multicultural.
I was born into a wealthy Christian family.
My father was a businessman.
I'm an only child.
I was raised uh to parents who loved me, adored me, gave me the best education.
We had a great life.
And fortunately, all that began to change when we imported people into our country who did not share our values.
Lebanon was the only country to in the Middle East to import the third wave of Palestinian refugees.
Even when the Arabic, their Arabic brethren did not want them.
We took them in because we were Christians, because we were open-minded, because we were tolerant and fair and wanted to do unto others what others people do unto us.
We wanted to be God's message to them.
And unfortunately, once they came to Lebanon, they put their heads together with the Islamists in Lebanon, and that's what tipped the scale, the balance between the Christians and the Muslim population in Lebanon.
My 9-1-1, my 9-11 happened to me in 1975, when the combined forces of the Palestinians and the Muslims blew up my home, bringing it down, burying me under the rebel wounded.
I ended up in a hospital for two and a half years and going from one surgery to another.
And I would ask my father why did they do this to us?
And my father would tell me, because we are Christians.
The Muslims consider us infidels and they want to kill us.
So I learned since I was a 10-year-old little girl that I am wanted dead simply because I was born into the Christian faith and lived in a Christian town.
I ended up leaving the hospital and coming back home, but my home was no longer the home I left.
I ended up living underground in an 8x10 room without electricity, without water, and very little food.
And that's where I lived for the next seven years of my life, robbed of my youth from the age of 10 till the age of 17.
And so during the years of the bomb shelter, we didn't have any food.
You know, the Islamists and Palestinians cut off all food supply to our region.
We would crawl under the bombs and we would dig out different dandelions and different vegetation, different greenery that grew around our bomb shelter.
It was the only salads we had to eat to get some water.
We would crawl under snipers' bullets.
We were surrounded by Islamic snipers.
And I come from a town called Marjayun, the Valley of Springs.
And we had many springs in my town.
And we had a spring five five minutes from my house.
And we would crawl in a ditch, trying to get to the spring to get some water.
And before we left our bomb shelter, we would say our last goodbyes because we did not know if we're gonna come back alive or dead just to get a drink of water.
and this became my existence.
I remember at the beginning of the war my father would say, "Oh well you know the Christian nations are going to come save The Christians in Lebanon, America is gonna come, France is gonna come, Australia is gonna come, England is gonna come, Canada's gonna come.
Nobody came.
The world forgot about us.
We were a blurp on the news, or we were on the Nike news in the world for the first one month, two months, and then the world forgot because it was not affecting them.
It was happening over there.
Nobody cared.
Well, the world had become so small, Linda, that today, because of the internet, because of world travel, what used to be over there is now worldwide.
And 9-11, 2001 was a wake-up call to the West, not just the United States, because the attack on the World Trade Center in 2001 was just not an attack against America.
That was an attack against the Judeo-Christian foundation and principles that were the foundation of Western civilization.
That's when the Islamists organized and mobilized with a figurehead, Osama bin Laden, and Al-Qaeda sharing their ideology and spreading their Sunni ideology worldwide that united them against the West.
And you and I have been talking about this.
We've been working together, you know, it's like you know, what when we were talking before we went on the air.
You and I have been talking about this for 20 years, Linda.
20 years.
And we're still talking about the same thing because Americans did not want to believe us back then.
They thought there is no way this could be happening in America.
There is no way these ideologies will take hold in America.
America is a Judeo-Christian nation, patriotic nation.
They not only took hold in our country, but right now we are seeing demonstrations on the streets of New York, of LA, of Atlanta, of any major city in the United States, Chicago, screaming death to the Jews in our lifetime, by the way, Holocaust survivors are still walking around.
And we are talking about the killing and the massacres of Christians in the Middle East.
That's right.
And here's, and thank you so much for that.
And thank you for letting the audience know, because I think the folks that listen to the Rogue Recap want to know the truth.
We're the type of people that want to help, that want to be involved.
And I agree with you.
Just like they were saying then, this could never happen in America.
Not only is it happening, it's happening with funding, organization, uh signs, outfits, supplies, weekly salaries.
You want to know why these people can protest?
You want to know why they can end up in front of the White House?
I mean, they are the Democratic Party of Socialists, the money from China, the money from Soros.
And I'm like, I people don't understand.
And here's the thing.
There are a lot of independent citizen journalists that go out to these various demonstrations and they'll say to people, which river, which sea.
Why are you here?
Who are you protesting?
Donald Trump, he's a fascist.
Got it.
Okay.
Do you know what fascist means?
What does that mean to you?
I'm not even asking for the real definition, just what does it mean to you?
Because you're saying the word.
And they don't know.
So then when you tell them, it's interesting because I'm actually surprised that we're not hearing more about what's happening in Twaida and in Damascus because of the fact that the IDF is helping.
I'm like, oh, great.
Even if we get negative press, let's get some press on what's happening to the Druze.
Because at least then we would get awareness and people go, wait a minute, that doesn't look right.
I mean, they are taking.
When I saw that one elderly man that's it's circulating all over X, and I know you know what I'm talking about.
So the Druze people, and you can correct me if I'm wrong because you're the expert here.
They when they grow their facial hair, it's a it's a sign of masculinity and deity and it's pride.
So they're capturing these men, and before they kill them, they humiliate them in front of their communities by shaving their facial hair, knowing that it's humiliation.
Then they rape their wives or their daughters in front of them.
Then they kill them.
And they're killing them in horrific ways.
Like people are, it's not like it's like a simple shot to the head and boom, it's over.
They're jumping to their deathroom roofs.
They are killing them by throwing them out their windows, they're stabbing them, they're beating them up, they're dragging them down the street, they're setting them on fire.
Like to your point, they firebombed your house.
Like these are not a peaceful people.
They have been raised that the Quran has taught them that they are in the right to spread Islam by any means necessary.
Yeah.
And the tolerant left is super tolerant of the rage-filled Islam.
But Christians and Republicans and conservatives, and I gotta be honest with you, Brigitte, I hate them all.
I say this all the time.
It's us against them.
There's the elite in Congress, and then there's us.
When I look at some of these people that are running some of these states and they're in congressional seats and Senate seats, and I'm like, oh my God, what is the point of having the majority if you're not gonna do anything with it?
You know, for those of you listening right now, Brigitte has hundreds of bills.
She's trying to codify to help the president.
She just needs a little help.
Just vote yes, codify so that the president's actions actually become law and they can't be unchanged.
How much trouble are you having with that?
Well, look, uh, here is the thing.
We know that elected officials understand one thing and one thing only, and that's pressure.
Why?
Because they want to get re-elected.
You know, I always tell people there are two types of people in Congress.
There are the people on the right, and we know exactly who they are, and there are the people on the left and we know exactly who they are.
You know, those are the ones who dig their heels down.
By golly, you know, they're not gonna change their opinion.
But the majority of people in Congress are those in the middle whom I call sincerely undecided.
And what I mean by that is they lick their finger, stick it up in the air, and see how the wind is blowing.
So we created, and I mean, we by we Act for America, my organization, the biggest windmill machine, because if they're not willing to see the light, we're gonna make them feel the heat.
So what we do with Act for America, and you know, you and I have been talking about my grassroots organization for years.
Forever.
We created a huge grassroots organization nationwide.
We monitor all bills coming down for a vote.
We work on introducing the bills and we monitor bills, even that we did not introduce, but other members of Congress introduced, and we send an action alert to our members and we say, call your elected official about this bill, bill whatever.
It's an example HR1253.
Right.
Coming down for a vote about blah, blah, blah, blah, whatever the bill is.
We need you to call your elected official.
It's coming down for a vote, that's gonna be voted on next week.
We have an email prepared for them.
We have social media posts prepared for them.
We give them their elected officials' phone number and a script that they can read off the computer while they're calling.
A lot of people, a lot of times, people do not take action, Linda, is because people do not know what to say, they do not know what to write.
Oh my gosh, I don't want to sound stupid.
I'm talking to an elected official.
But we are mobilizing people and we are making things happen.
And I'm proud to tell you that to date we have passed 300 bills at the federal level and the state level.
And right now we have 100 bills in Congress going through the process because we are trying to codify as many executive orders as we can for that President Trump signed.
You know, he signed over 170 executive orders.
So we already passed about 31.
So we want to codify the rest before the next midterm election because we're not sure we're gonna win the midterm.
So I tell people all the time make sure you are engaged.
And you know, you touched on that.
I ask Republicans, are you engaged?
And they say, Oh, absolutely, Brigitte, I listen to talk radio every day.
I watch Fox News or News Max or whatever you call it.
You know, I listen to one nation, I attend CPAC, turning point, whatever conference.
I'm a member of the whatever Republican Party, we show up once a month, hear a great speaker, eat the rubber chicken, and then everybody goes home, and nobody knows what to do.
Seven days later, they have no idea what to do.
Right.
You you stop a leftist young nitwit who's a socialist, 22 years old.
Tell him, tell me why you're a socialist.
They can't even define socialism for you.
But by golly, they are engaged, they are showing up at their elected officials' office, they are lobbying.
And that's the difference between entertainment, going to conferences, entertainment, belonging to a Republican club eating the rubber chicken once a month, listening to speaker, that's entertainment.
Uh, listening to talk radio, it's entertainment.
That does not impact policy.
There's a big difference between activism and entertainment.
What we do is activism.
So I encourage people right now, listening to this podcast.
If my message resonates with you and you really want to make an impact, go to Actfor America.org.
Right now, sign up to receive our action alerts and take action on our Act Now campaign.
We made it so easy.
You can take action, 7 a.m. in the morning, sitting in your pajamas, sipping your cup of coffee in front of your computer with one click of a button.
That's how together we can make a difference.
So, ladies and gentlemen, if you missed it, how could you?
It's Act for America.org.
It is an amazing organization.
I am on the newsletter list.
She is not kidding.
They definitely help you.
They give you all the answers that you need so that you can make the right calls and say the right things.
Because you know, Linda, one more thing I want to add.
Please you know, we are not lacking education.
No, we we have never had more education in lifetime.
Yep, you go to the internet, you type in the word capitalism, you got 60,000 pages.
You type in socialism, you got 60,000 pages.
We're not we have never had more information than we have today.
But people do not know what to do.
They are they hear information, they got more frustrated, and they say, tell me what to do.
I do not know what to do.
And the reason why we created our act now campaigns, and the reason why we want to put pressure on Congress, and people tell me, why should I call Brigitte?
My phone call is not gonna mean anything.
My Congressman needs to hear from 50,000 people, 40 to 50,000 people before they do anything.
Wrong.
I have been working with Congress for 25 years now.
Here's how the system works.
On the federal level, all they need to hear from is 40 to 50 people.
That's it.
40 to 50 people to make a bill their top priority.
And here's the science behind the numbers.
They believe one phone call or email represent 1,000 voters.
They believe if one person makes a phone call or sends an email, he or she are representing 1,000 couch potatoes who feel the same way but are too lazy to make a phone call or send an email, yet they vote on election day.
That translates to 40 to 50,000 voters on election day.
Most people don't know that, Linda.
Most of our base is not educated on activism.
They are educated on the issues.
They want to learn as much as they can on capitalism and how government works and how capitalism works, but they're not learning how to impact policy.
The left teaches people on how to impact policy.
Their end goal is impacting policy.
Our end goal is educating the masses.
They need to be informed about what's going on.
No, no, no, no, no.
You don't need this much information.
All you need is this much information and weaponizing it against elected officials to impact policy.
And that's the difference between Act for America and what we do as an organization and every other organization out there educating on the issues.
So let me ask you something.
With a situation like what we have in Syria, the lack of coverage that we have, what do you think are the next steps so that we can bring awareness and we can do what we need to do so that we can make a difference and we can help those people.
What is it that we can do?
Well, with the situation in Syria, education, we need to ask ourselves what is the purpose of the education?
And you go back to impacting policy.
We want our government to basically lower the hammer on Julani, the head of Syria, to stop the massacres.
Because remember, Julani, this is the this is the baby child of ISIS and Al-Qaeda.
Just because he put a suit on and flew uh uh uh uh to Europe and took a picture with all world leaders standing there, and you know, all of a sudden, or flew to Saudi Arabia and now all of a sudden we're gonna recognize this guy as a moderate.
Zebras do not change their stripes.
And Islamists like Jelani, who is the baby child of ISIS and Al-Qaeda, use a term called taqiyya.
Taqiyyah is a is a law practice under Islam, where in a time of war you can lie to your enemy as long as you are advancing the cause of Islam.
Actually, the Quran approves of it, commands it.
You can actually lay your hand on the Quran and swear you are telling the truth and nothing but the truth, knowing you are lying in order to advance your cause.
So, what Jelani in Syria is practicing right now is uh taqiyya.
So, what he's trying to do, he's what he wants, this is ethnic cleansing, what we are watching in Syria right now.
And what we need our government to understand is that you need to do something to apply pressure on Jelani to stop the massacres, or we will bring back the sanctions on Syria because that's the only language he will understand.
And so this is what we're trying to do right now with Congress.
We are actually working on the action alert right now to go out to our members and the masses.
And I hope everybody signs up and I hope everybody shares the Act Now campaign when the article goes out to our full membership to apply pressure on our government to put pressure on Julani that unless you are gonna stop the murders and the ethnic cleansing, we're gonna put the sanctions back because America is not gonna sit down and tell you, okay, you're a good guy, we're gonna lift the sanctions if you're gonna massacre people like killing cattle.
That is unacceptable.
They're actually killing cattle, at least you do it mercifully.
What they are doing to the Druze and the Christians in Syria is barbaric.
This is barbarism, this is ISIS 2.0.
And here's my question to you, and I'm thrilled to hear that obviously I knew that you know Act for America was obviously already doing something.
But what I am concerned about, and and this is this is really what bothers me and keeps me up at night.
There is no age too young, no child, no elderly person.
There's no one that's left unscathed by radical Islam.
You know, I was just saying to my mom earlier today, I was like, you know, I look at these people and they'll say to me, Oh, you know, it this is gonna create Islamophobia.
I'm like, it's not Islamophobia when every time I turn around, it's people that are pushing a narrative of Islam pushing hate and murder and rape and brutal massacre.
I mean, you can say whatever you want about the Hasidic community, about you know, the IDF, um, I don't know, uh, regular Christians in America.
They're not out there leading a cause, you know, as a Christian, we're not leading the crusades.
You know, people aren't running around with the Torah screaming, you know, I'll have your head.
It's just not happening.
And if it is, please let us know.
I'd love to know.
But it's just not happening.
What is happening is that we have a guy in Minnesota as a Somali running for mayor, saying that white people are the biggest problem in America.
We have a guy who is, I don't even know what he is.
I don't think he knows what he is.
He's from Uganda, his mom's Indian, you know, he's half.
I honestly, nothing about Mom Donnie makes sense to me, honestly.
He's in Africa right now.
I'm like, okay, so why are you in Africa?
Why are you in Africa right now?
The scariest part is that people are behind him and they're like, oh my gosh, AOC and Mom Donnie would be such a great ticket.
I'm like, oh my God, what are you thought?
For real, not only her.
These two people, here's the other thing to your point.
We have never been more educated.
Yeah.
We have people that I call them career students.
They are they've got their MBAs and their Emmys and their PhDs, and how many letters do you need, right?
Okay, fine.
They have zero life experience.
Yeah, they've never run a business, they've never been in trouble, they've never been on the end of that which they profess.
So they're telling you they're tall-I mean, of all people, AOCs from a rich suburb, uh, Mom Donnie's mom and dad, you know, she's Bollywood, he's a professor at Columbia.
You know, I don't know what this Somali kid's about, but I know he's got more money than God coming at him for his campaign.
And we are not, we're not paying attention.
I mean, they're building a Sharia law complex in Texas.
In Texas.
Yeah.
Why are Cornyn and Cruz and Abbott allowing this?
I'm like, guys, what is happening?
They've been asleep in Texas.
They have been asleep.
Uh, look, and you know, my organization started passing laws called American Laws for American Courts, and we started passing it in 2009.
And we said, okay, we're not gonna say Sharia court because we want American businesses who are doing business in England or who are doing business with French companies or Australian company or New Zealand company.
But if they get into litigation, as long as the their laws are compatible with American courts, we have no problem with that.
So we introduced a law that says no law that is not compatible with the US Constitution should be allowed to be used in American courtroom.
And the reason why we did that is because we documented 143 cases where Sharia law was used in an American courtroom instead of the Constitution of the United States by 2009.
We're talking how many years ago?
This is not like yesterday.
And the first Sharia court was introduced in Richardson, Texas.
Uh 10 years prior to 9-11, 10 years prior to 9-11 in 1991, Sharia Allah was introduced in Texas.
And Texas led the nation in introducing Sharia Law in America.
And I remember when we were trying to introduce uh American laws for American court, Texas was the toughest state.
We could not pass it in Texas until 2017.
We started in 2009.
The state house, all the state legislators in Texas would not touch it.
The state legislators in Texas between 2009 and 2017 would not touch a law or pass a law that said the constitution is the law of the land, and no other law that's not compatible with the constitution should be allowed to be practiced in America.
That was Texas.
The biggest we had easier problem passing it in Washington State than we did in Texas.
Why?
Because Texans are asleep.
And when I would travel to Texas and I would speak and I would go all over Texas and I would speak all over Texas, people did not want to listen.
And I sat down with D-born Pickens.
I remember being sitting with T-Bone Pickens, God's blessing soul.
He's no longer with us.
You know, and I'm telling him, this is what's happening at the state legislators.
And he would call the state legislators because I knew he was funding all of them.
And they would tell him, Oh, these act from America people are crazy.
No, nothing like this we need to worry about in Texas.
I remember sitting uh with Ross Perot in 2007, 2008.
I remember sitting uh uh uh with um what's his name?
Norman Brinker.
I can go down the list of all the moguls in Texas who are no longer with us, God bless their souls, they are in heaven, but nobody wanted to pay attention to what was happening in Texas because they could not believe it happens here.
Well, this is your warning.
You know, they say, Linda, 20 years, an overnight success takes 20 years.
They didn't get to this point because they just started yesterday.
They've been building for over 20 years.
Americans have been asleep, or they did not want to listen because they did not want to be called Islamophobes or racist.
And you know, Linda, you and I have been working together for over 20 years now.
And when I would speak up, people would say, Oh, Brigitte Gabriel Islamophobe.
If you Google my name on Google, the first thing you'll see is the Southern Poverty Law Center, the ADL, everybody calling me Islamophobe because I've been sounding the alarm.
And on the Republican side, before until President Trump, until basically four years ago, the Republicans did not want to touch anybody that was controversial because nobody wants to be called a bigot or a racist or anything else.
Well, today we are all in the same boat.
If you are prosecute border, you're a bigot anti-brown people.
If you are pro-police, you are anti-black people.
If you are for whatever you are, we're all in the same boat.
We are white supremacists, bigots, racist, you name it.
The label doesn't mean anything anymore.
But finally, America woke up and it's too late.
It's now now we've got cancer at stage four spreading throughout America.
And now more than ever, we all need to come together, work together, and work together effectively.
The time for education is over.
Now is the time for action.
And that's why I ask people go to Act for America.org right now.
Join us and support us.
We didn't name the organization think about America or Hope for America or Pray for America, but we named it what?
Act for America.
Because you can think and hope and pray, but without action, nothing changes.
I don't mean to laugh, but honestly, it's just wonderful.
It's so great.
I love it.
It's great, it's true, and it's great, and I love it.
Um let me ask you as we wrap up here, and and I can't thank you enough for being with us today here at the road recap.
And I know the audience is gonna freak when they get to hear you.
Um but I'm just curious.
So, you know, as a survivor, you know, what would you recommend for us to do to help the Druze people to help the Christians in Syria?
What do you think needs to happen next so that we can help these poor people?
We need to take a strong stand against Julani, who is now the president of Syria.
We need to make sure we understand that we are dealing with an enemy.
This is not a friend.
Zebras do not change their stripes.
America needs to take strong action in bringing bank the sanction or whatever President Trump and his national security team, and believe me, I'm talking in their ears.
Whatever needs to be done to be able to let this guy understand that America will come so hard down on you, and we'll do whatever we need to do in Syria to bring back order because we're not gonna allow you to have a massacre under our watch.
And this is the type of pressure.
This is the type of action that our government needs to do.
Look, I remember growing up in Lebanon, and America allowed Hozbollah to continue.
You know, when Hozballah blew up the marine barracks in Lebanon in 1983, America tucked tail between its legs and left.
And look at what happened in Lebanon 25 years later.
Hosballah became the strongest terrorist organization in the world, stronger than Al-Qaeda.
Um, and so it's much easier to deal with the threat right when it's a baby than to deal with it when it's Goliath, like what we are dealing with.
We do not want the resurrection of the Islamic State or Al Qaeda again in Syria.
Syria is about to fracture, and our government needs to understand that we need to keep our finger on Syria, we need to keep our eyes on Syria, and we need to take whatever action necessary to stop the killing.
So I think to that point, there's a few things that I want to close with.
Number one, there's Christian genocide happening all over the world.
Yes.
We're seeing it in Africa.
We're seeing it in Syria.
We're seeing it in Iraq.
People are asleep at the switch.
Just like when we attacked Iran a few weeks ago, and people were like, why are we getting involved?
I'm like, this is the head of the snake.
And the people, you know, the regular average citizens of these countries, many of them are looking for freedom.
I mean, even when you look at what's happening in Gaza, you know, and you see these people coming, they're getting humanitarian aid, not from Palestine.
They're getting it from Israel and from the United States.
And then the Hamas leaders are coming, the terrorists are coming, they're taking the humanitarian aid, they're killing those who try and come and get it for free.
Then they're taking it off to some market in the middle and selling it back to these poor, starving people who just need a little bit of flour, rice, or water, and nobody's reporting on this stuff.
So I feel like there's three things that need to happen.
Number one, Americans need to get not, they need to get smart.
They need to get smart and they need to stop watching the left-wing lunatics who literally just had TDS all day.
I mean, listen, I don't think that Trump is the best thing ever, you know, on every single issue.
But overall, I think he's doing a pretty good job.
It took a really long time to, you know, mess the country up between Obama and Biden and Clinton.
God bless him.
You know, he's six months in, he's doing all right.
And then the next thing we need to do is we need to get involved with organizations like yours.
And I think the last thing that we need to do is we need to stop just looking at one piece of information or one source of information.
It needs to come from a breath of information.
If you watch CNN, then please watch Newsmax or Fox News.
If you read the New York Times, then please read the EPAC Times.
There's gotta be a balance because people are so misinformed.
And when I see little girls, little Yazidi girls and Druze girls beaten and raped, some as young as seven and eight.
It's really sick.
And you think it's only happening there.
We have all this happening.
We have female genital mutilation happening in Minnesota and Michigan.
We have sharia complexes in Texas, we have two Muslims running in two major cities that are downright outright saying we hate white people, we're done.
Defund the police, defund ICE, uh socialism, government run this and that.
Wake up.
It's enough.
It's not gonna work.
Yeah, it's never gonna work.
And become engaged.
And if I may add one thing on our side, Linda, people think, oh, I voted, I've done my job, now I don't have to do anything for another two years until the midterm.
They don't realize that the work starts the day after we win the election, because that's your window of opportunity to get things done and to prepare for your next battle, which is the midterm or the presidency.
The left is in a continuous phase of growth and activism.
They don't take a break, they win the election, they say, okay, what can we done now to pass our agenda?
They lose an election, they continue organizing.
Okay, we've got to win it back.
Our side votes on election day and then goes to sleep.
You cannot proceed because there's a lot of things that happen between election, between the election, the midterm, and the presidential.
That's when actually things get done.
That's the that's the day-to-day policy activism that affects your life on every level at the state level, at the local level.
All these decisions are made, not just once every two years.
They are made every day, and that's where your activism and engagement become very important.
So you yes, you need to be informed on issues.
Yes, you need to listen to talk radio, you need to join a group in your local community to be empowered, to have the fellowship, to feel like I'm not crazy.
I have other people who believe the same way I do.
But you also need to be engaged in an activist organization that is making an impact.
Remember, the end goal is impacting policy.
You know, effective is my favorite word in the English language.
Effective.
I want you to think about that.
All of you listening to me right now, effective.
At the end of the day, I want you to ask yourself after you listened to talk radio, you watched your podcasts, you watched everything, you just finished eating your dinner, you're sitting in front of the TV.
You need to ask yourself, as you're getting frustrated watching the evening news, What have I done today to be effective in my conviction?
Not just be entertained, but effective.
I want you to remember that word tonight, tomorrow night, every other night.
I want you to remember those words.

What better than to make an impact with an organization that's impacting your business?
This is where we need to work smarter as people coming together on the right side, on the conservative side, and working together so we can all move in one direction.
That's what the left does.
That's exactly what we need to do.
