LIVE @5PM: Scriptures And Wallstreet: Supreme Court Ruling- Affirmative Action = ESG

Text
Thank you.
You know, I really don't know how to title this discussion because that's all it is, is a discussion slash rant on my concern of what's going on right now.
This 14th Amendment that the Supreme Court just issued...
It really just kind of exposes the state of our mentality.
And the state of our mentality is very simple.
It is to promote the woke agenda.
Why on earth are we talking about race when it comes to colleges?
Part of being a victim is if you're always angry, if you're always upset, if you're always hurt, you're sad, that is a miserable life to live.
And the mindset of having a victim card or playing the victim card is that you'll never have freedom in that.
So when we learn to take responsibility, we learn to take responsibility that life happens for you, not to you, and that all things work for the greater good for those that love Christ Jesus.
That is really what this is all about.
I can get into very, very details and specifics of what truly is happening when it comes to Wall Street.
But the woke agenda is really just a mask about them playing the victim card.
It is a mental disability at this point.
That you never take any responsibility.
You never take any negative connotation.
There's no responsibility.
You can walk away from everything.
Yes, you can kill your baby.
You can kill your marriage.
You can kill everything, cancel everything.
There's no pain involved.
Everything is for the greater good and everyone needs a hug.
This is what they want us to breed us into.
I was just talking with one of my great clients in Las Vegas.
And she was saying how the men out there look so weak.
Everything is so girly.
There's no manly men out there anymore.
They're all walking around like a bunch of prissies, right?
With skin-tight jeans and cut-off jeans and everybody wants to be gay and then they paint us as homophobics.
Look, I'm not a homophobic.
I'm not an Islamphobic.
Just don't force that crap on my children and I won't force any 556 against you.
Period.
Like, don't touch my kids.
Like, we don't have a problem with you humping another same-sex person.
That's between you and God.
I know what God says about it, and I know God wants me to love you regardless of who you love or choose to hump and what you do in your bedroom.
But keep it to your damn self, man.
Like, how hard is that?
What is the obsession of putting this woke agenda on our kids?
Leave them alone.
And I started thinking about that.
A lot of the people that are gay and that are homosexual and that have these identity problems, they were touched the wrong way when they were a kid.
They were touched the wrong way as a kid.
They were either molested or maybe the babysitter touched them the wrong way and they had that experience and they thought that was normal.
I honestly believe it is not normal.
I don't believe you're born gay.
God did not design you to be gay.
So if you want to cancel me, Google, like you've done.
If you want to cancel me or whatever, I don't care.
I'm going to stand for what I believe in.
I believe in the Word.
I believe in God.
I believe in this country.
And I'll take the heat for whatever it is.
Because I love pissing off Satan.
Every single day when I wake up, I ask Jesus Christ, how can I piss off Satan today?
What can I do to honor you?
And that is my life mission every single morning.
I wake up, I read my Bible, I have my cup of coffee, and I ask God, thank you for the breath of my lungs.
Thank you for my wife.
Thank you for my kids.
Thank you for my work.
Thank you for this podcast.
How can I piss off Satan today?
How can I honor you?
And I think us men need to take this responsibility.
We need to carry the cross forever.
It is going to be offensive.
We will be persecuted, but there's honor in that.
There's honor in that.
There's no honor when you have the Supreme Court justice saying, hey, we're going to take racism out of college admissions.
What kind of crap is that?
What do you think the 14th Amendment from the Civil War is from?
Did all that go to the wayside?
Our troops died for us to have the 14th Amendment.
I could play the victim card.
I'm Latino on Wall Street.
You don't see me crying.
Oh, I'm Hispanic.
Oh, they didn't give me a job opportunity because they told me I don't look white enough.
No, man.
What in the world, guys?
This is what's going on.
These people want to play the victim card because they don't know how to fight back.
They don't know because mom and dad are freaking weak.
Mom and dad are listening to the mainstream media.
Oh, the social justice.
Oh, Black Lives Matter.
Oh, this and that.
There's no backbone.
There is no backbone anymore.
Like, today was a waste.
I don't care if Fox News or CNN, they bickering about the 14th Amendment.
Are you freaking joking me?
When you put on the uniform and it's green and black...
There's only one color, dude, and that's green.
Period.
Like, if you grow up military, you get that.
You don't care if the guy is Muslim, Jew, gay, straight, yellow, Mexican, Puerto Rican.
It doesn't matter.
That guy's fighting for you and us.
We're on the same freaking team.
Like, where's the mindset shift?
We have gotten comfortable.
We have gotten comfortable with social media.
We have gotten...
We have conformed into this ideological woke agenda as a country.
And it's bleeding into your investments.
It's bleeding into corporate America.
It's called ESG, by the way.
And just this week, or last week, I was on Stu at the Money Minute a few days ago.
I was talking about this.
Larry Fink from BlackRock says he doesn't want anything to do with ESG anymore.
He doesn't want it.
Well, guess what?
You freaking started it, you daggone idiot!
Like, when you want gay people to run your company, when you want black people to be all the executives, when you want to take white people out, when you want to fund China, when you want to destroy America by ripping families apart and buying out every single family home, what do you think you're doing?
That's not social justice.
You guys are the real racists.
You guys are the ones that are propagating this woke agenda.
That's Luciferian in every aspect.
Let me ask you, how are you honoring God?
How are you honoring people?
When you're monopolizing, the number one American dream of every child in America, every adult in America is to buy a home.
They may not get the dog in a white picket fence and the beautiful wife and kids.
We know that's a privilege.
That's a God-given privilege.
But you can't in the same breath say, oh, I don't want to call it ESG anymore.
When you, your company, has forced this into 401ks, you've got in bed with Biden and all the Chinese conglomerates enforcing this woke agenda and it's blowing up in your face.
It is blowing up in your face.
You have all this woke stuff happening and now it's bleeding into the colleges.
I have no empathy.
I have no sympathy or empathy for this, guys.
This ruling.
It's the dumbest thing ever.
Who cares what color you are?
And so what if you're Chinese and you didn't get into a school?
Big deal.
Go start a business.
Go start your own school.
Go to another country.
Go where you're appreciated.
You don't need Harvard to make it in life.
I've done very well for myself, and I went to a normal Christian business school.
I went to Liberty University.
I went to Southeastern University.
And I came out okay.
I think I came out okay.
But take ownership.
Like, go start a business.
Like, you don't have to have an education and get in debt a quarter million dollars just to make 40, 50 grand a year.
That's stupid.
Go to community school.
Learn a trade.
Start a business.
Make money that way.
And I promise you, you probably will make more money than those woke people teaching them big pharma and CCP-like business tactics from business schools.
You'll make more money doing that over the course of your lifetime.
You'll have more freedom and responsibility to Then trying to get a nine-to-five job somewhere, working for the man, and pushing the woke agenda.
They're indoctrinating our children.
They're indoctrinating our culture.
They know they can't get to me.
They can't get to you.
They're going to get to our children through these CCP-like installments of teachers and this woke agenda that they want to impose in our educational system.
This is what all this is about.
And so we have companies that are adopting this ESG garbage.
Now, ESG, environmental, social governance.
This is what China wants to do.
This is a social credit score.
This is AI morphed into the Green New Deal, morphed into the Project 2030, morphed into all these things that promote the woke agenda.
And Larry Fink wants to back away from it because it's blowing up in his face like...
Bud Light.
Like Target.
Bud Light is not...
The number one beer in America anymore is Modelo.
I don't even drink beer, but I'm sure Modelo is good.
I think they make what?
No, that's Dos Equis.
Modelo is its own brand.
But yeah, this is a crap show, man.
And so having the victim card mentality doesn't suit you well, guys.
If you're a listener to this, Please do not be a victim card.
If you're sad, if you're upset, and you're finding that you're always offended, you are playing the victim card.
Take ownership.
There is freedom in taking ownership.
There is freedom in saying, yes, I have this plan, and I'm going to do it because that's what we agreed on.
And then all of a sudden you don't want to do it and now you're playing the victim and you want to say every crazy thing on earth.
There's people that are like that and they play the victim card and they cry and there's no freedom.
There's never, ever, ever responsibility there.
Be responsible.
Take responsibility.
And you'll see that there's freedom.
There's control.
There's peace.
There is just harmony.
And there's blessings.
I want to...
I simply just want to talk about that...
What is next?
Next is the corporations.
Next is...
What people...
What people pursue...
This woke agenda, this victim card, is that we cannot build America on a victim card.
We cannot build America...
Saying, oh, this is a win because of affirmative action or just a win because now race is never a problem going into colleges.
Like, why do you have to go to college to be successful is what I'm getting at.
You don't.
You don't.
Haven't we learned anything?
Like when you go to college and spend a quarter million dollars on a four-year degree and you only get a job making $50,000 a year, you're going to be working indefinitely enslaved for a very long time.
Instead of investing in a tax-free retirement or your own retirement, you're going to be investing in a 401k.
That's if you can pay Sallie Mae back.
And so tomorrow, Friday the 30th, They're going to find out if this forgiveness program is going to be incontest them.
Are they going to continue to default the student loans?
Now kids are going to have to start paying this back and they don't even have jobs.
They don't even want to go to work.
They don't even want to go to work.
They just want to be on social media and say, oh, there's an injustice there.
There's an injustice there.
There's an injustice there.
Well, I'll tell you the injustice is when I take my family out to a restaurant and no one wants to work and I'm willing to pay somebody to serve us and they give us old food, no service, and then they demand a tip.
They demand a tip.
You know in Japan, if you get tipped, They don't accept tips because they believe in Japan that they're really good at what they do.
They don't need extra income to justify their job.
They look at it completely different.
They feel like if you tip, then they're not doing a good job and that you're just helping them do a better job and they look at it as an insult.
In Japan, They believe that if you don't have a job in three months that they will Baker Act you and you will be in a mental institution because there's something wrong with you if you don't know how to work.
Yeah.
It's a different mindset, guys.
We're getting lazy.
We're getting lazy, dumb, fat, and slow.
And we're getting offended by every single thing.
And we're allowing...
We're allowing people to dictate, the media to dictate how we think.
And we don't need that.
We don't want to conform into their thinking.
And that's what they're doing.
And I can't believe the Supreme Court is ruling on race when we already had this discussion 25 years ago.
We already won this battle.
And if you're Chinese and trying to get into Harvard, big freaking deal.
You didn't get accepted.
You think...
You don't think you're going to get racially profiled because the Supreme Court said...
How in the heck are they going to measure systemic racism?
Who freaking cares?
How many times have I lost a client because I was told I was a Puerto Rican kid...
And they'd rather have Jack Williamson to manage their money.
They don't want the Spanish guy.
How many times has that happened in my life?
Do you see me crying?
As a matter of fact, when I went to go interview on Wall Street firms, they told me, dude, like, take your jewelry off.
You need to shave.
Like, what's that gold chain you wear?
You don't look like one of us.
They were talking about the way I dressed.
You don't look like one of us.
You need to change your name from Carlos to Carl.
And don't even say your last name.
They're not going to trust you.
You're some Spanish kid that doesn't know anything.
Even worse, maybe a Mexican.
This is real life stories.
And so I have no empathy of these kids crying about they didn't get into Harvard.
Oh, big deal.
Like, even if I was able to play at Duke, I wanted to play at Duke.
I grew up in North Carolina, and I wanted to play soccer at Duke.
I was good enough.
I didn't have the grades.
But even if I did have a 5.9 GPA, like whatever these kids have going into, my parents didn't have the money.
To pay for me to go to school, so I went Division II, and I played soccer there, and I made a whole awesome life out of it, and it was great.
I just don't get this mindset, man.
It shows up in your kids' lives.
It shows up in your spiritual life.
It just shows up in every aspect of your life.
And what's worse is your money can keep on funding it if you're not careful.
You have to be very careful with where your money is at right now because you're funding these woke companies that believe in this garbage and they want to promote the ESG agenda.
Like, who the hell wants to freaking fund a killing of a baby?
Like, why are these companies going so freaking woke they want to kill and murder a child that's not even born?
And Lululemon and Kodak and CVS and Walgreens and all these freaking companies, they will pay for a lady that's pregnant and wants to get an abortion.
They will pay to go across state lines to kill that baby.
Why not adopt the kid, man?
Like, let the kid breathe.
Let the kid have the opportunity to speak one day and let a loving family that can't produce save money and adopt a child that they will love for the rest of their lives for generations to come.
Don't get it, man.
Like, these companies are investing in this.
And so...
Guys, this is what I'm concerned.
I'm not concerned about the stock market.
Yes, the stock market is going up this quarter, and it will continue to go up probably the next quarter because they have to pump it up for stupid-faced Biden and make him look good.
I've already said this already.
I've already had group meetings with a lot of inside traders, a lot of institutional money managers.
The market's going up, guys.
Gold is going down.
It's been selling up.
Bitcoin's going up because of the CDSE. There's a lot of stuff going on, but I'm not talking about that.
I'm talking about the moral...
I'm talking about the heart.
I'm talking about the soul of where you are placing your money.
These companies, they really, really are showing allegiance to Satan.
There is no God in their lives.
There is no morals in their lives.
There is no America in their hearts.
These companies, they want to promote the Zionistic, Charles Schwab, George Soros, CCCP sensitive funded type of agenda where they want to have this artificial intelligence credit score system to trace, track, and control you.
That's what all this is about.
At the end of the day, they just want to trace, track, and control you.
So recently I wrote an article for Forbes Money Magazine and Businessweek.
And guess what?
They told me.
They denied me.
Let me read what they just said.
And I'm going to do a screenshot here.
Let's see here.
I regret to inform you that your ad has been rejected due to religious and political nature of the messaging, both of which are unacceptable in accordance with the publisher's advertising standards.
Unfortunately, advertising standards are a very gray area, but at the end of the day, all publishers have a right of refusal on all submitted ads.
On my end, I did push back on clearance from the publishers as I felt religious and political nature was very vague.
And then they go on to say...
My two flag quotes is how I said this in the article.
How do you know your financial advisor's ethics are the same as your ethics if you're not connecting with them on a political, emotional, and it's supposed to be spiritual level, but they put social.
And at CWN, we welcome conservative clients who, like us, put God, country, and family first.
They rejected my ad, guys.
This was...
This was Fortune Entrepreneur Bloomberg Business Week.
And here's a screenshot of the email.
Absolutely terrible.
Even standing against the grain, they will chop you down.
But I don't care.
I'm going to be real.
We're going to have real conversations.
We just need to push on forward.
I don't need to advertise on these woke companies anyway.
I had a company that was paying for an ad for me.
One of my marketing consultants.
So it didn't cost me anything.
But it's just sad.
I really just want to talk about my values.
My values.
I get shot down.
Maybe they don't like that I'm Spanish.
Maybe I'm not the white Democrat promoting the LGBT agenda, but sure as hell, I could talk about a sex change, or chopping off a penis, or pedophilia, and they will accept it.
Like, how crazy is that?
I talk about God.
I talk about Jesus.
I talk about your advisor and their relationship.
No.
No.
It's a gray area, Mr.
Cortez.
You're not allowed to talk about that.
Gray area.
Same bleeds into this college admission scandal.
They're still going to profile you guys.
For those of you that are young and applying to college, they're still going to profile you.
If you're white, they're profiling you.
If you're Latino, like I am, they're profiling you.
If you're black, they're profiling you.
Yes, there's systematic racism.
Who freaking cares?
Grow a pair and be all that you can be.
Who cares?
I had big ears and buck teeth.
I cried for many years because I was bullied.
Who freaking cares?
Now I'm on a podcast.
Millions of people that watch it.
Do you think I care?
Make fun of me?
Troll me?
Yes, it hurts a little bit.
But I keep on.
I keep on.
I got bullied when I was a kid.
They called me a Mexican because of my buck teeth.
And they called me a Mexican beaver.
They were just brutal with me.
I literally would go home crying.
But so what?
God was just molding me.
God was just molding me.
Which brings me to my scripture.
Let's see here.
Romans 8.28.
It's been a part of my life.
I've been attacked this past week by some people that That don't want to own up to their own responsibility.
And they badmouth me.
Very spiteful people who I thought were great.
But life goes on.
Romans 8.28 And we know that all things work together for good for them that love God to them who are called according to His purpose.
So if you're sick...
If you're struggling financially, if you're worried, if you're fearful, if you're uncertain, if you're worried about that divorce, if you're worried about the chemotherapy, if you're worried about the cancer, if you're worried that your business is failing,
if you're worried about your grades, if you're worried about the death of your friend like Brian, God said, Not some things.
God said all things.
He said all things work for the greater good.
For them that love God.
So if you're worried...
If you're worried about your mom dying...
If you're worried about anything...
He tells us in the scriptures...
That all things work for the greater good.
That wrecked my spirit when I read that yesterday in my daily bread.
Because I worry.
I worry about the risks that I take sometimes.
I worry about people.
I worry about myself.
I'm a holy human.
And God, the Holy Spirit just wrecked me, man, when I read that because the problem is not the worry or the failing business or that client or the health scare or the business failing or the eviction notice or the cancer or the blood work results.
That's not the problem.
The problem is you.
The problem is you're not trusting God.
You are thinking small.
That was my word for me.
I don't know if that relates to you, but Romans 8.28 hit me like a sack of bricks, dude.
Hit me like a sack of bricks.
I'm sorry I don't have any...
I don't want to talk about, oh, the best investment for 2023.
I'm not here to make money every single podcast.
I'm here to provide content and check in with your heart.
I'm here to offer realness.
I'm here to just honestly let you know some concerns that I have.
And concerns is deeper than money.
The concerns is, where is our heart right now?
Who is playing a victim card?
These people that are saying, oh, it's a win for racism, they're the racists.
Know that you're not going to change racism.
I don't care who you are.
It's still going to be there.
The evilness is planted.
But what you have to do is choose not to let it ruin you.
And know that God sees you in His image.
And you are called to be more than a conqueror.
And that all things work for the greater good that love Him.
And I was saying this with some of my Ruck brothers.
If it's money that you're after, ask God for it.
He is the richest entity in the world financially.
He is your father.
I would say that God is my biological father.
He created my dad.
So not only is he my father spiritually, biologically, the only flesh I have is my actual biological flesh father.
But if my dad was...
Bill Gates, let's just say, or Carlos Slim, or Elon Musk, and they're just this massive billionaire, and I just loved on him.
I honored him, I respected him, and they were a human being.
Wouldn't they give me just a small portion of their net worth?
Wouldn't they give me a little bit of knowledge so I can grow my net worth, teach a fisher how to fish, and he'll eat every day, right?
How much more can we ask our true Heavenly Father for the spirit of knowledge, for the spirit of wisdom, for the spirit of knowledge to be profitable?
Like, why aren't we asking God these questions?
Like, when's the last time you'd gone in the woods and said, God, what do you want me to know?
Why was I created?
Give me some knowledge.
I am yours.
Use me as clay.
Mold me into your hands, Lord.
Because I am a sinner.
I have filth in my life that only you can provide the cleansful nature of my soul and write my name in a book of life.
It's that simple.
Like, we just have to seek his face.
And He will correct us.
His Holy Spirit will amend us.
He will protect us.
But we've gotten so far away, man.
We've gotten so far away of just like this woke agenda allowing mainstream media to dictate how we think.
And we're conforming into this nonsense.
Whether we realize it or not.
So this whole ESG agenda, I want to just talk about it as it relates to the 14th Amendment.
And the race, and they're saying, oh, by 2026, Harvard is going to have 46% white people.
Oh, no!
Yo, man, like, go to Harvard and see how many Hispanic kids are there.
Give me a freaking break, man.
I'm not crying about that.
Man, these people are so funny.
Look, I love this country, and I would do anything for this country, like my father did.
I love this country.
My whole generational family came over here legally because of the American Dream.
And one of the things that I love about this country is we have the Second Amendment.
As long as we have the Second Amendment, things are good, but you guys need to be caring.
And I don't know if you're like me, but I can't stand my gun holster.
I literally wear my gun naked in my shorts.
And if I clank into something, it hurts, right?
Because the sticky holster that I had for many years, if I was to ever draw my weapon...
It just didn't work out.
Until now, we got the Vanish holster.
Check them out.
They're my newest sponsor and I am so proud to be a part of them.

They have a breathable fabric.
I can't wait for my order to come in.
I'm going to show it off.
And more importantly, you don't have to do like what Sig and Smith, they get these plastic, hard, nasty holsters and you got to buy a different holster for every gun that you own.
Why don't we just get a universal one that fits all the handhelds You can run with it.
You can put it in your car.
You can wash it.
It doesn't smell.
It doesn't stink.
It doesn't give you rashes.
It's made with beautiful material, yoga pant material, and the actual holster is strong and synthetic where it has a trigger guard on it.
So yes, check them out.
If you go to the link on my podcast, you are going to save $50, and they're worth every penny.
Check them out.
It's my new sponsor.
More importantly, if you are interested in retirement planning appointment with myself, all you got to do is scan the QR code.
You can get on my calendar.

You can visit us at corteswm.com.
I got a new website now called scripturesandwallstreet.com.
Pretty soon we're going to have all of our shows on there too.
In case Rumble decides to get stupid with us, we can just go to scripturesandwallstreet.com to follow me there.
And more importantly, I do not like these woke companies.
You've got to buy American product, non-toxic products.
Do it from switchmyproductsusa.com.
We've gotten so many great customer testimonials of people that are enjoying this.
The new makeup.
Enjoying the candles.
Enjoying the home fragrances.
Even the non-mRNA beef.
From the beef to the shampoos, detergents.
My hockey team is saying, man, you smell amazing.
You smell like a laundry detergent.
What kind of laundry detergent?
Hockey players are asking me this.
I'm like, yep, go to this.
It's non-toxic.
Go to switchmyproductsusa.com We will get back with you.
I will personally reach out to you.
Myself or someone on my team will reach out to you.
And then it's very simple to get the shopping link.
But yeah, just go to switchmanproductsusa.com.
My allergies are getting a little better.
Thanks for all the advice and all the natural remedies you guys emailed me.
Thank you for that and all the consultants.
But we need to buckle up, guys.
We need to buckle up in America.
We need to start being tough.
We need to pick up that cross, man.
And know that all things work for the greater good for those who love Him.
If you don't love God, then I worry for you and I'll pray for you.
But for those of us that love Him and pick up the cross daily, we got nothing to worry about, man.
Like, we are soldiers.
We are more than conquerors.
We have the power.
Period.
Don't let fear, uncertainty, or doubt show up in your investments.
We can help you with that.
We can custom tailor a plan that suits your needs.
Markets are going to be volatile.
Copper is very interesting.
I like looking at copper.
KRE, as well as Bitcoin, has been going up because the CDSE is launching this month coming up, as you guys know.
So you're going to see some weird movements in the market.
Gold is being shorted like crazy.
So the cost of gold is going down.
So what will happen with gold is it will crash down.
You're going to see it just get melted.
And then there's going to be that point where it will pop back up.
So a lot of volatility there with gold.
I was just looking at the charts right now.
But yeah, the S&P 500...
They're saying that it's going to be a turnover now.
And a lot of the analysts and the traders that I follow and money managers, they're saying that the market's starting to turn a little bit.
I don't believe it.
I believe it's a head fake.
Just because it moved over that 200-day moving average all-time high from two years ago doesn't really necessarily mean it's turning.
We still got a lot of fundamental issues.
The student loan deal tomorrow, inflation is still high even though it's cooling off.
What's terrible is that wages have gone down and the cost of inflation has skyrocketed.
