Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
The church in America is going to suffer so terribly.
And we laugh now, but they will come after us.
They will come after our children.
They will close the net around us while we are playing soccer mom and soccer dad, while we are arguing over so many little things and mesmerized by so many trinkets.
The net even now is closing around you and your children and your grandchildren, and it does not cause you to fear.
You will be isolated from society as has already happened.
Anyone who tries to run for office who actually believes the Bible will be considered a lunatic until finally we are silenced.
We will be called things that were not and persecuted not for being followers of Christ but for being radical fundamentalists who do not know the true way of Christ which of course is love and tolerance.
You'll go down as the greatest bigots and haters of mankind in history.
They've already come after your children and for most of you they got them.
They got them through the public schools and indoctrination and the university and indoctrination and then you wonder why your children come out not serving the Lord.
It's because you fed them right into the devil's mouth.
So little by little the net is closing around and then it's not little by little.
Look how fast things are going downhill just in a matter of weeks.
Matter of weeks.
But at the same time know this.
Persecution is always meant for evil, but God always means it for good.
And is it not better to suffer in this life to have an extra weight of glory in heaven?
You must settle this in your mind.
This is the one thing I want to say over and over.
Do not believe.
Down through history, you have a wrong idea of martyrdom and persecution.
You think that these men were persecuted and martyred for their sincere faith in Jesus Christ.
That was the real reason, but no one heard that publicly.
They were martyred and they were persecuted as enemies of the state, as child molesters, as bigots, as narrow-minded, stupid people who had fallen for a ruse and can contribute nothing to society.
Your suffering will not be noble.
So your mind must be filled with the Word of God when all people persecute you and turn on you.
And the Spirit of God in common grace pulls back and you see even your children and your grandchildren tossing in the lot that you should die.
This is no game.
You want revival and awakening, but know this.
For the most part, great awakenings have come only preceding great national catastrophes or the persecution of the church.
I believe God is bringing a great awakening, but I believe that He is raising up young men who are strong in trust in the providence of God to be able to wade through the hell that's going to break loose on us.
And it will be on us before we even recognize it.
Unless, unless in God's providence, He is not done.
He is not done.
This is not silly talk.
Apart from a great awakening, these things are going to come upon you.
Be ready to lose your homes, your cars, and everything.
Yeah, that was 2008, but Paul Washer was 100% correct.
He was ahead of his time in all of that, in that whole prediction.
Now, like he stated, even back then, lots of indoctrination was already occurring in higher education and in, you know, just everyday life.
You know, people, children specifically, were being brainwashed to have a certain view of society that was not godlike, even 15 years ago.
But now that agenda has been put into hyperdrive.
And not only has it been put into hyperdrive, but it has already destroyed much of what held us together as a Christian nation.
I said this on my earlier show, but it goes without saying that the people leading this country weren't always necessarily Christian themselves.
However, God uses imperfect people to essentially complete his perfect agenda.
And that's what happened with the founders, for example.
They might have been students of the Enlightenment, weren't necessarily Christian themselves, but they realized that America was indeed a Christian nation.
And the reason I say that is because if you look at the founding of this country, you look at how every single religious group that came here was fleeing religious persecution.
You have the Quakers in Pennsylvania.
You have the Catholics in Maryland.
You got the Puritans in New England.
You got all of these different religious groups fleeing religious persecution at different points in time in the old world, Europe.
Okay?
And it's not like we had droves of Muslims, we didn't have droves of Jews coming over, okay?
Not to say that, obviously, you know, the First Amendment doesn't protect their right to practice their own religion.
It's just to say that we are indeed, if you look at our history, still a Christian nation.
And that was something that the founders respected, even if it wasn't a belief that they personally held.
Which is why so much of this country is rooted in Christianity.
And so much of our heritage is rooted in Christianity.
And yet, we find ourselves at an interesting position in 2023.
And that is that we are persecuted.
We are persecuted in our own country.
The government hates us.
The Biden regime is attacking Christians.
Non-believers are attacking Christians in our own land.
We, as Christians, I'm sure most of you are, are genuinely the victims here.
And yet, the irony in all of it is that we're not even the ones who get a final say.
We don't get hearing after hearing after hearing in Congress about how much persecution is going on.
No!
You know who does get hearing after hearing?
People thousands and thousands and thousands of miles away.
Ever since the whole Hamas paragliding into Israel terrorist attack went on on October 7th, it seems the focus has been on anti-Semitism in the media, in Congress, in our government.
Now let me be clear.
I am not saying that I'm okay with anti-Semitism or that I think these hearings or that nothing should be done about anti-Semitism.
I'm merely saying it's interesting.
It's interesting that that seems to be the focus of our government, that that's the focus of our modern-day media.
And yet Christians are being persecuted by their own government, by the police state, and nobody gives a crap.
This country, guys, is falling apart because the people who built it were being persecuted.
The entire makeup, 60-70% of this country is Christian.
And yet, we are not even allowed to openly practice our religion in many cases in this country.
And there are many examples of that.
We're going to be walking through some recent ones.
You also get slandered if you're a Christian.
James Carville did that recently to Mike Johnson, who, you know, I don't really necessarily believe Mike Johnson is going to save us, right?
However, I don't believe he should be persecuted for his religious beliefs as a Christian.
We're also going to be talking about a hearing that went on in Congress.
Congress is more than happy to grill college campuses about antisemitism.
Do you hear that about Christianity ever?
No.
Quite interesting.
So we're going to be walking through all of that today, guys.
I am really fired up.
Because I'm just so saddened by the state at which we've allowed ourselves to get to in this country.
And like I said, Paul Washer, as you just heard, predicted all of it.
It could have been prevented had we just stood up for ourselves.
But once again, we were brainwashed to be weak Christians.
And honestly, honestly, I think that's why we are where we are.
are but anyways guys stay tuned for this very important episode of wrong thing primetime and welcome to wrong thing primetime I'm I'm Anna Perez.
Thank you so much for being here on this Tuesday night, guys.
Really appreciate you tuning in.
If you are a regular here, welcome back.
Great to have you here.
If you are joining us for the first time, thank you so much for...
Deciding to tune in here for a wrong thing, for an episode of wrong thing here on the Stu Peters Network.
Really grateful to have you and I hope you enjoy the show and you come back for more.
On that note guys, also please rumble the show.
Obviously if you're watching a rumble, which I'm sure you are, hit that thumbs up button guys and also Share the link on your social media.
Help this network grow.
Help the Stu Peters Network grow.
Help Wrong Think grow as well, guys.
Help get the word out there that this is the place to be at 9 p.m.
Eastern Time every single weekday night.
So thank you all for doing that in advance.
In advance.
In advance, I meant to say.
For those of you who are messaging me, thank you so much.
I am feeling a little bit better.
Obviously, yesterday I was still recovering quickly.
I still kind of am now.
If you heard me on my earlier show, I sounded a lot better than I did yesterday.
But I just had the worst coughing fit right before I got started.
So hopefully that won't be happening as we go on.
But like I said, this is a topic that I'm very passionate about.
There's nothing that really works me up quite like two things.
The attack on free speech and obviously the attack on Christians, which ultimately are the same thing.
That's the First Amendment, right?
And that is what we are struggling with the most here as Christian patriots.
Before we jump in, however, I do want to tell you, of course, about one of our amazing sponsors here.
And that would, of course, be for Patriots, guys.
This is going to be a really important part of your life, making sure that you're geared up and ready for any sort of emergency situation that the government puts you in.
So I'm telling you right now, you have to act quickly when it comes to getting everything that you need, getting all your ducks in a row as far as preparing yourself and your family for this.
It looks like the government is really not stopping when it comes to these, quote, natural disasters, as we recently saw in Hawaii and, of course, East Palestine, which we still haven't got to the bottom of because nobody really seems to care.
They're all focused on Israel, right?
Anyways, the question then remains, when things go sideways, will you be prepared?
Some people are concerned, and I would say some, but honestly, I think most.
I'm concerned they may have to go for a long time without electricity or even food.
That's why I want to introduce you to 4Patriots.com.
Get preparedness products you can use now and that could save your life later on, literally.
My favorite is 4Patriots' new solar generator, the Patriot Power Generator 2000X. It uses the endless free power of the sun to power lights, your TV, medical equipment, and even run your fridge, which is going to be super important, okay?
Plus, it's expandable and comes with a free solar panel, so it is a great deal.
Or you can also pick up one of Four Patriots' best-selling survival food kits with delicious tasting and designed to last for 25 years' food.
They even have kits with real meat, okay, which is pretty difficult considering it lasts for 25 years.
That's hard to do.
If the power's out, excuse me, no worries.
Just boil water over a fire, simmer, and serve.
Excuse me.
You'll enjoy a hot meal.
And stay safe in a crisis, which we know more crises are coming.
More smart people than ever are finding Four Patriots.
Over two million customers already trust them, okay?
You might have even seen them on TV. That's how popular they're becoming.
So guys, to help you out, I had the folks at Four Patriots set up a special page for you at fourpatriots.com forward slash Anna.
So that listeners of this podcast can see this week's discounts and deals before they go away, okay?
All you have to do is go to 4patriots.com forward slash Anna.
But like I said, guys, hurry up.
These deals will not last long.
Save more and get peace of mind now by going to 4patriots.com forward slash Anna.
All right, guys.
So now to jump right in, all right?
We're at a weird time in America because, like I said, considering the fact that we have about 60-70% Christians in this country or self-proclaimed Christians, it seems to be more acceptable than ever before to essentially disparage Christianity, to slander Christians.
Specifically Christians that are not shy about their faith.
Now, what's interesting about this dynamic is that despite the fact that Christians are the majority, and I'll refer to that as we because I am a Christian as well, despite the fact that we are a majority in this country, We're the ones that get persecuted more than the minority faiths in this country.
Maybe those who are, you know, if you're Muslim, if you're Jewish, you definitely can't criticize a Jewish person.
You definitely can't criticize Muslims as much either.
Although right now, the Jews tend to be more of a protected class, I would say, than even the Muslims.
If you look at the way the media has portrayed it, I mean...
I'm not saying that I'm okay with either which way.
I'm just saying anybody with an IQ higher than two can figure out that the media is definitely seeing this through a certain lens, okay?
And Christians have been persecuted time and time again, and yet nobody seems to care about that.
In fact, it's normal.
It's so normal to criticize Christians and Christianity that we hear it morning, noon, and night on the TV, on mainstream media, in every part of the news.
It's really fascinating to watch here, okay?
And nobody seems to really flinch, okay?
You might hear certain people posting about it on Twitter, but it's not taken nearly as seriously as, you know, another religion that's being criticized.
I mean, imagine, I want you to think while you watch this video, imagine if James Carville was saying this about Judaism or Islam.
But no, here he is criticizing Mike Johnson for his Christian faith.
And actually saying, going beyond that, saying that Al-Qaeda, I mean that Christian nationalism is a bigger threat than Al-Qaeda.
Yep, take a look at this.
First of all, I don't think he can hold this party together.
Second of all, you're exactly right.
Mike Johnson and what he believes is one of the greatest threats we have today to the United States.
I promise you, I know these people.
You're talking about Christian nationalism.
Absolutely.
This is a bigger threat than Al-Qaeda.
To this country.
Let me tell you something.
They have Speaker of the House.
They got probably at least two Supreme Court justices, maybe more.
Don't kid yourself.
People in the press have no idea who this guy is, how he was formed, what the threat is, and this is a fundamental threat to the United States.
It is a fundamental threat.
Don't believe in the Constitution.
So, let's get this straight.
60 to 70% of this country is Christian.
And you think that Christian nationalism is a threat, James Carville.
Not only do you think it is a threat, but you think it is a bigger threat than a designated terrorist organization.
Imagine, imagine if the roles were reversed.
Imagine If he said that about Jews or if he said that about Muslims and that he said...
Well, he couldn't because he was comparing it to Al-Qaeda.
But either way, you get the point.
The only religion that would be considered acceptable to speak about in that way would be Christianity, which is quite ironic, as I pointed out, because guess what?
That is essentially the religion of this country.
No, we're not a theocracy.
I realize that, obviously.
Okay, the left loves to come after me and say, oh, you're stupid, because we're not a theocracy, obviously.
Yeah, I know that.
I We know that, okay?
I'm more familiar with the Constitution than most of these idiots, okay, that come after me and come after probably you as well for pointing this out.
But numbers matter.
And when you look at the statistics, that is the majority of this country.
And it's also the majority of this country, it has been the majority of this country since day one of its founding.
That is literally the reason why America, why they came to the New World at all, for many reasons.
But one of the main ones was fleeing religious persecution.
That's why the Puritans came here.
That's why people came here in years after that.
For economic opportunity, of course.
And prior to that, you had the failed colony in Roanoke.
Then you had the Jamestown.
Then you had the settlement.
Then, of course, you had the Pilgrims landing in Plymouth.
So there's tons of history, tons of reasons why people came here.
But ultimately, you look at the first thing people were worried about, and that was their faith.
So how dare you, James Carville?
How dare you attack people for having a faith that this entire country was founded on?
Christianity.
We are living in a time when that is the rhetoric that is commonplace.
Attack people for their Christian beliefs.
Attack them for actually believing in God, having a genuine belief in God.
And that attack, by the way, extends beyond just mean words or false words, I should say, because everything you just stated there is actually just flat out false.
Christian nationalism is not a greater threat than Al-Qaeda.
I don't care if you're not Christian yourself or if you're another religion.
You're allowed to not believe in what Christians believe in.
But I'll tell you this much.
I'll tell you this much.
They're not a freaking bigger threat than a terrorist organization.
And you can talk about Al-Qaeda if you really think it's real, if the government invented it.
It doesn't really matter.
The point is, as it stands, as it stands, you cannot compare Christians to Al-Qaeda.
That's insane.
And like I said, guys, it's worse than that.
It's worse than just falsehoods about Christians and slanderous rhetoric.
It's way worse than just that, than what James Carville had to say and what many others have said about Christians and continue to say.
It's actually the government operating against Christians.
The government literally persecutes Christians and prosecutes them too.
The government hates us.
And they will use any opportunity to come after us, case in point, what they're doing to the Catholic Church.
I actually spoke about this on my show earlier today, but I want to delve into it again because this is extremely pertinent to the topic we're discussing here, which obviously is the bizarre persecution of the largest religious group here in the United States.
Take a look.
FBI interviewed clergy as part of domestic extremism probe into traditional Catholics, Jim Jordan reveals.
An FBI whistleblower came forward early in 2023 to expose the FBI for having targeted faithful Catholics as domestic extremists.
And now the House GOP and the Weaponization of Government Committee has revealed that the FBI considered developing sources from among the Catholic clergy and had even interviewed a priest and choir director affiliated with the Catholic Church in Richmond, VA. I think?
Reads the latest report from the subcommittee.
The committee and select subcommittee discovered that the FBI relied on at least one undercover agent to develop its assessment.
And the FBI even proposed developing sources among the Catholic clergy and church leadership.
Not only did the FBI propose to develop sources, the report continued, but it's already interviewed a priest and choir director affiliated with the Catholic Church in Richmond, Virginia, for the memorandum.
Most concerning of all, without the disclosure of the brave whistleblower, the Richmond memorandum would still be operative in FBI systems, violating the religious liberties of millions of Catholic Americans.
The FBI, per committee, saw the memorandum as an opportunity to insert federal law enforcement into places of worship and support outreach efforts to dioceses of Richmond and Catholic parishes.
The committee stated that the document received pursuant to the committee's subpoena shows there was no legitimate basis for the memorandum to insert federal law enforcement into Catholic houses of worship.
When they gave the examples of just how absurd the basis of the issuance of the memorandum was, there was only one investigation carried out by the FBI Richmond field office prior to the issuance of the memo.
And that investigation concerned one individual who self-described as a radical traditionalist Catholic, which, like I said earlier on my show, probably just means this, quote, self-described radical traditionalist Catholic actually believes in the Bible.
Unlike some Christians today who, of course, embrace things like trannies and gay marriage and abortion.
That's not actually Christianity.
So, you know, if you're considered radical by today's standards, probably just because you actually believe in the Word of God and you actually follow the Word of God.
So that's where we're at in today's America.
You get slandered if you're Christian simply for your faith, which I don't know how that's acceptable, but unacceptable if you're another faith, right?
In a country that is our own.
And in addition to that, the government is actively working against you.
They are spying on you and considering you a domestic terrorist.
You are a domestic terrorist if you're a Christian, specifically if you're a Catholic.
Congratulations, the government's after you.
This could not be more wrong, more disgusting.
Paul Walsh was correct.
This is disgusting.
What's happening to Christians in America?
We are being persecuted in our own country.
And it is sickening to watch because it just gets worse and worse and worse, it seems, every single day.
Especially with this far-left agenda that they want to push.
Because now we've gotten to a point where the Overton window has shifted so much in the direction of accepting the far-left's LGBTQ agenda.
Now the standard is such that you're committing a civil rights abuse or something of the sort, right?
If you don't endorse this, if you don't endorse these ideals, including religious institutions like Christian schools.
Take a look at what we're seeing now.
Another attack on, you guessed it, Christianity from the government.
Leftist politicians demand Catholic school teach transgender ideology.
Church goes to appeals court to stop takeover by politicians.
A Catholic school in Michigan is asking an appeals court for help in stopping a takeover of the Constitution by leftist politicians who wanted to promote their sex ideologies.
Disgusting.
It is the St.
Joseph Parish in a lawsuit against Attorney General Dana Nessel and other state officials that is asking the U.S. Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals to protect its ability to guide its church and school community without following The political and ideological demands of the state officials.
You know, we hear from the left time and time again, separation of church and state.
But they're silent.
They're silent when it's inconvenient to them.
And by the way, that's not written in the Constitution.
What this is, what they're really speaking about is, what they really should be concerned about is preserving First Amendment rights.
But no.
They only seem to bring that argument up when it's...
You know, about like, you know, Satanism, right?
They don't care about actual Christianity, which is truly what the Constitution was based around protecting.
Because once again, it's not like we had droves of Satanists coming over.
It's not like we had droves of Muslims or Jews coming over.
We were founded as a Christian nation.
At issue is a new state demand that makes it illegal for St.
Joseph to hire staff who agree to uphold its religious beliefs and bars it from maintaining a church and school environment that reflects its faith, according to a report from Beckett, a specialized legal team that fights for Americans' religious rights.
The lawsuit has been dismissed earlier by a lower court So St.
Joseph is asking the appellate judges to reinstate the action and let St.
Joseph run its parish and school activities consistent with its Catholic beliefs about human sexuality and marriage.
Now, if you told somebody from the 1950s that this would even be considered a court case, that you would even be considered to have a case meaning on the side of the politicians, the leftist politicians, they would be baffled.
Baffled!
How is it possible that America, the land of the free, the free to practice their own religion, Are being told that they can't practice their own religion.
That religious institutions may not operate as they see fit.
Oh, because some leftist freaks decided that they needed to make sure that the church teaches your children, not just the church, but that the school attached to it needs to teach your children that they're allowed to cut off their genitals if they see fit.
You cannot tell me that there isn't a blatant attack on Christianity.
There is a blatant attack on 60 to 70% of your country.
If somebody were to speak that way, just say it as bluntly as possible, and came up to you and said, hey, would you be concerned if the government started targeting 60% of the country based off of their religious beliefs?
If you pose that to a far leftist, they would say, oh yeah, yeah, we don't want that to happen.
That sounds terrible.
Let me guess, you're talking about Muslims or Jews?
Because I'm totally in defense of them.
But then you say that it's Christians and suddenly nobody cares.
Suddenly they actually should be targeted.
They are domestic terrorists.
If you ask James Carville, they're more dangerous than Al-Qaeda.
That is the natural view in the West right now.
And it is why we are taking in, in mass numbers, all of these people from different cultures, from different places.
And look at Sweden.
Look at the rest of Europe and everything that they've gone through over the past few years because they took in all these different cultures and they were told they would be racist if they didn't allow in all of these people from different places around the world.
What happened?
You saw an increase in rapes and all sorts of crimes, thefts.
I mean...
You cannot sit here and convince me that I'm a xenophobe or I'm a this-phobe or a that-phobe or an anti-Semite for sitting here wanting to preserve The country that we're meant to be.
And I'm not saying that you can't come here and practice differing religions.
We have a First Amendment that protects everybody, okay?
But you cannot come here and tell me then that I as a Christian am a bad person for my beliefs in Christ.
You do not have the right to come here to this country and tell me that as a Christian I'm the bad guy.
And that it's okay for the government to persecute me.
And that we gotta move over and make room for you.
You do not get to say that to us here in America, a 60-70% Christian nation.
That is not racist.
That is not any is.
That is not none of the isms.
That is none of that.
All that is, is logic.
Numbers.
Me pointing to an obvious truth about this country.
It makes no sense that the majority of the people in this country are being persecuted.
And we're not even allowed to have a say in it.
Nobody even cares.
Who's standing up for Christians?
Almost nobody.
Every now and then you'll see, you know, you'll hear from Jim Jordan or some other congressman standing up for Christians in a hearing against the FBI, questioning the FBI as to how it was possible that they got away with, you know, persecuting Christians or calling Christians domestic terrorists.
But most of the time, you don't hear squat.
Nobody cares.
And certainly, nobody's out there grilling college campuses on why On why they have such satanic ways.
But no, you hear it for other religions, like, I don't know, Judaism, especially right now.
We're going to be discussing that in the next part of this show.
But it's not even like we're being slandered.
It's not even just the mean names.
It's not even just that you might feel like you can't really be open about your Christian faith anymore.
It's the government actually weaponizing itself against you.
They are clear and open with the fact that they consider you a domestic terrorist.
If you're a Christian, you're a domestic terrorist.
There is a likelihood that if you are watching the show, it's probably because you're a Christian.
And if that's the case, then you are also considered a terrorist by the government.
And I gotta say, you're not gonna like it when I say this, but Christians, we've done it to ourselves.
We've done it to ourselves because that warning from Paul Walsh in 2008 was extremely accurate and it should have put a fire under our butts in order to protect ourselves, protect this nation.
But we didn't do that.
We bought into the multicultural BS and we said, oh, whatever everybody else wants.
Oh, you're right.
Let's put aside our own needs and wants and our desire to protect the Christians in this country and let's do everything for everybody else.
And they made us buy into this concept that if we weren't always loving and tolerant, that we weren't being Christian.
Well, guess what?
Love and tolerance is a big part of Christianity.
But you know what else is a big part of Christianity?
Standing up for what's right even when it's unpopular.
Turning over tables like Jesus did.
And sometimes you're gonna get persecuted for standing up for what's right.
But that doesn't mean you shut up about it.
It actually means you get louder like Jesus did.
And too many Christians have cowered in the face of persecution.
And I realize we don't have control over everybody.
But I wish that the Christians who led us to this place would have had a much stronger backbone and actually stood up for us because we wouldn't be in this mess.
Now, I will say I'm pretty happy to see that there does seem to be a strong trend among Gen Zs, particularly Gen Z men, that want to bring back Christianity.
And like Paul Walsh says, he does believe that there's going to be a reawakening.
I do believe that amidst all of what's going on, there is hope for a Christian future, for a reawakening that's going on.
But make no mistake, it is going to be an uphill battle.
Because that's exactly what Christ promised us.
And I don't want to get too preachy, okay?
But it's true.
Christ promised us that we will face persecution and that is indeed what's happening to us in our own country.
But that doesn't mean we give up and give in.
We need to fight back.
Even though nobody wants to hear it from us.
Nobody wants to have a hearing for Christians over how much they're being persecuted.
No, they want to have hearings for Jews because that's the trendy thing to do.
Because if you don't protect Jews, then you're in trouble.
You're in big trouble with the deep state.
Oh, but Christians, they're fine.
Oh, Christians, throw them in the lions then.
Who cares about them?
Don't you see, guys?
We are witnessing the Bible forever.
Coming true.
We're witnessing the word of God happening right before our very eyes.
And not enough people are speaking out about it.
I know I'll get hated on for talking about the importance of preserving this Christian nation.
I know I'll be hated on for concerning myself with the persecution of Christians rather than only concerning myself with the persecution of Jews.
Look, let me be clear.
I don't want the persecution of anybody, anyone.
I'm just pointing out that there seems to be an obvious difference in the number of people concerned for anti-Semitism rather than the number of people concerned for anti-Christianity.
As far as I'm aware, the government's not coming after Jews.
No, the government's coming after Christians and yet almost radio silence.
We're going to be discussing more of that coming up because like I said, they just had a hearing on anti-Semitism in Congress And it's the kind of hearing that, honestly, I've never heard Congress upset like this when it comes to Christians.
Like I said, I've heard one or two members of Congress upset, but never to the degree that I've seen them upset over antisemitism.
And I'm getting sick and tired of the hypocrisy here, the inconsistency from our government that clearly is targeting Christians.
But before we do that, guys, before we get to that, I do want to go ahead and take a quick break, and I will be right back.
So guys, very important message from one of our amazing sponsors, Goldco.

If you haven't figured out already, this is pre-recorded, however, not Too much in advance, just about a couple hours.
I had a social obligation later tonight, so I had to go ahead and make sure that I had a very important one, by the way.
I would not normally want to forego a live show, but obviously I wanted to make sure that we got the important information that we needed to get out there tonight, because this was a topic that has really been weighing on me.
I'm really sick and tired of seeing the persecution against Christians, and yet nobody seems to be concerned about it.
Everybody's so concerned.
The media, the government, it's ironic really because the government comes after us but then they tell us that the real concern is anti-Semitism and then the media also comes after us but then they want to tell us that the real concern is anti-Semitism.
I'm sorry, come again?
And now let me be clear, like I said, I am not by any means in favor of anti-Semitism or by any sort of persecution of any religious group at all.
I'm not saying that.
What I'm saying is I'm pointing out the obvious bias that the government has against Christians.
They don't like us.
If they cared about us, they would be holding the same sorts of hearings in Congress that they hold for Jews, for anti-Semitism.
Okay?
Which I'm not saying shouldn't happen.
I'm merely saying, where is this concern for Christianity?
And by this, what I mean exactly is what we saw in Congress today.
Okay?
We'll be getting to that in a moment.
But first, I also want to show you what we've been seeing in the media.
Now, we've been seeing a lot of this talk of anti-Semitism ever since the Hamas attack in Israel.
Now...
You know how I feel about that Hamas attack.
I don't necessarily believe it was organic.
You know how I feel about Hamas in general, Mossad, the CIA. Yeah, you get it.
I've talked about this many times on the show.
Not gonna go through it again.
But for some reason, that's the narrative that we're still running with in this country.
And ever since that day, an event that happened in a foreign country has taken precedence over everything else in the news cycle.
And not only that, but it seems that it's very clear the media and the government are very clearly on the side of Israel.
Now, a lot of people are like, well, what about Pramila Jamaihal, whatever her name is, some weird freak that was taking the side of Hamas, or, you know, the other, the squad, or whatever.
Well, yeah, I get that they're on the side of Hamas and whatever, but...
They're not like the biggest voices in Congress, right?
The majority of Congress is taking the side of Israel both on the left and the right.
That seems to be something they're both siding with and the concern over it is far greater than their concern for the persecution of Christians in our very own country that has been going on for years and years and years and has only gotten worse and worse and worse.
The government, as we just discussed, is literally coming after Christians and you never see This kind of concern on the media.
This was a segment on Fox News where they aired an NYU student's speech about what it's like experiencing anti-Semitism on college campuses right now.
Take a look.
Being a Jew at NYU is walking to class and passing torn and defaced posters of innocent hostages with the words occupier and murderer written across their faces.
It is going to Boves Library to study and being interrupted by unauthorized protests where students and faculty call for a globalized intifada revolution, an incitement to violence against Jews everywhere, and a call for the annihilation of the Jewish state and my friends and family who live there.
Being a Jew at NYU is being surrounded by students and faculty who support the murder and kidnapping of Jews because after all, as they say, resistance is justified when people are occupied.
It is being surrounded by social justice warriors and self-proclaimed feminists whose calls for justice end abruptly when the rape victims are Jews.
Being a Jew at NYU has meant being physically assaulted in NYU's library by a fellow student while I was wearing an American-Israeli flag and having my attacker still roam freely throughout the campus.
Being a Jew at NYU is experiencing how diversity, equity, and inclusion is not a value that NYU extends to its Jewish students.
Since October 7th, the unmistakable anti-Semitism that I've experienced on campus is reminiscent of the Jew hatred I've heard about from my grandparents, Holocaust survivors, who experienced firsthand the deafening silence of their neighbors in Poland and Germany when the Nazis first rose to power.
As anti-Semitic rhetoric and actions became more and more acceptable, their communities' shops were looted, their synagogues defaced, and finally their families were taken away and perished in concentration camps.
Today, in 2023, at NYU, I hear calls to gas the Jews and I am told that Hitler was right.
To the NYU administration, you are not free to selectively enforce your own rules.
You are not free to refuse your Jewish students the same protections that you extend to others.
NYU has adopted the International Holocaust Remembrance Association's definition of anti-Semitism, which recognizes that calls to harm Jews in the name of radical ideology, calls to eradicate Israel, To deny the Jewish people their right to self-determination in their ancestral homeland is anti-Semitism that is punishable under NYU's code of conduct.
I am a proud Jew and I am a proud Zionist.
I am the granddaughter of Holocaust survivors.
We are not going anywhere.
Anti-Semitism and the support for terror should have no home at NYU or any other college campus.
Now look, I feel for what she's gone through.
I hope that she hasn't gone through anything that, I mean, she clearly, provided what she's saying is true, has gone through something, and I feel for her, and that's sad, and nobody should have to face that sort of persecution.
But the reality is, do you think Fox would have aired that?
Do you think any mainstream media outlet would have aired that if that happened to a Christian?
Because Christian persecution has existed for a long time, and it has been very bad on college campuses.
I mean, I went to American University, and they weren't exactly friendly towards Christians, but the difference is, it was so normalized for Christians that we don't even say anything about it anymore.
We don't even see it as anything other than normal.
But should you treat a black person that way?
Should you treat a Jew that way?
It's unacceptable, and suddenly everybody wants to talk about it in media.
Once again, I want to be completely clear.
I feel for her, and I, uh...
You know, I don't want anybody to be discriminated against based off of their faith.
I am not calling for that.
I'm not saying that that is acceptable.
But here's the thing.
I also don't necessarily believe that there's a coordinated attempt on all college campuses, especially in the city of New York City, to be against Jews.
That doesn't even make sense.
A good percentage of the students there probably are Jewish.
It's New York City we're talking about here.
Hello?
All you have to do is sit there and think for two minutes and realize that this narrative, that there's some massive coordinated attempt to hate Jews here in America, is real.
It's not real.
It's not really a thing.
I'm not saying, I'm not devaluing her experience or saying that she's lying.
I'm merely saying I don't believe that it's this massive problem right now that suddenly...
You know, the entire world is against Jews.
No, quite the opposite.
I see a lot of people rallying behind them.
I see a lot of people rallying behind Israel.
I see a lot of rallying that I never see when it comes to Christians.
And that's just in the media.
We see this all over the media.
I know I'm going to get so much crap for pointing out the obvious truth here, but it is the obvious truth and it needs to be spoken about.
I have nothing against Jews personally.
I'm not a I'm not, I don't want to be painted out to be that way, but it doesn't really matter because they're going to do that anyway just because I'm saying I wish we extended the same concern to the 60-70% of Christians in this country.
That's all I'm saying.
I didn't think that was that controversial to point out, but apparently it is.
Because again, it's not just the media that seems to be weirdly, disproportionately concerned about Jews rather than Christians, but also our government, Congress, that usually does nothing, is suddenly having these hearings today.
To make sure that there's no anti-Semitism on college campuses.
That's exactly what happened.
I want to play a clip from that.
I want to play a few clips.
They invited Harvard, the president of Harvard, there to make it sound like they even can do anything about this.
This is weird because they're just yelling at presidents of Ivy League universities.
And it's like, even if there was a problem, is this really getting anywhere?
Are you just trying to show everybody, like, don't worry, I care about the Jews.
Don't come after me.
That's what it feels like.
Because it doesn't really feel like you're going to do anything just by having these hearings.
But anyways, here's what went on.
Does Harvard actually teach antisemitism in classes?
Thank you, Congressman, for the question.
No, we do not, and we condemn anti-Semitism.
At Harvard, there is no place for anti-Semitism.
As you know, Harvard received, over the last four years, $3.2 billion in federal grants and contracts.
During the 2021 school year, Harvard received $104 million through Title IV. Why should Congress continue to invest money in Harvard when Harvard clearly violates Title VI and helps foster a hostile environment for Jewish students?
We are committed at Harvard to ensuring that all of our students thrive, that they feel safe and secure.
Well, apparently 100 professors who sent that letter to you criticizing your condemnation of anti-Semitic remarks don't agree with that.
And your institution is clearly producing students who are sympathetic to a terrorist organization.
Don't you think that's a misuse of taxpayer dollars?
My time has expired.
I yield back, Madam Chair.
You know, the thing that bothers me about this whole thing is, and I don't know really the details, but violence towards anybody is a crime, right?
So if you're going to physically go out of your way to hurt someone, whatever reason it might be, that's illegal, right?
Unless it's in self-defense, that is downright illegal.
So I assume we're not having a hearing over violence because that would be a no-go, right?
That would be obviously unacceptable.
You go to jail, the university would be in big trouble if they didn't actually persecute anybody who committed violence against somebody else, right?
So that's obviously true.
And so the obvious conclusion that you then come to after hearing that is that the The discussion is not over physical violence But rather hate speech, right?
Which is not a thing And you can't control everybody's speech Now I'm not saying that, again, I condone slanderous words towards Jews or anybody, any religious group.
What I am saying, however, is that we have a little thing called free speech in this country.
And just because you may not like what somebody has to say, and just because your feelings might have been hurt by somebody, you still have free speech.
And, you know, I've seen these Palestinian protesters.
I've seen them, believe me.
I live in D.C. I know they're nasty looking and they say nasty things.
But we still have free speech.
Free speech, hate speech even, mean words are still protected by the Constitution.
So I would like to see maybe some of that concern be driven towards the government that's literally considering Christians domestic terrorists rather than towards college campuses that are allowing mean words to be said on their campus.
So, again, if they're talking about physical violence, obviously, without, you know, without an explanation, that needs to be taken care of ASAP. But I don't believe that's really the majority of what they're describing here.
It sounds more to me like hate speech, which is not a thing.
But Elise Stefanik, she was more than happy to continue grilling these university professors, university presidents, on, I guess, an issue that's very important to her, which is hate speech.
Which I thought conservatives were supposed to be against, but then again, you can't just assume because you're a Republican that you're conservative.
Take a look.
A Harvard student calling for the mass murder of African Americans is not protected free speech at Harvard, correct?
Our commitment to free speech- It's a yes or no question.
Is that corrected?
Is that okay for students to call for the mass murder of African Americans at Harvard?
Is that protected free speech?
Our commitment to free speech- It's a yes or no question.
Let me ask you this.
You are president of Harvard, so I assume you're familiar with the term intifada, correct?
I've heard that term, yes.
And you understand that the use of the term intifada in the context of the Israeli-Arab conflict is indeed a call for violent armed resistance against the state of Israel, including violence against civilians and the genocide of Jews.
Are you aware of that?
That type of hateful speech is personally abhorrent to me.
And there have been multiple marches at Harvard with students chanting, quote, there is only one solution, intifada revolution, and quote, globalize the intifada.
Is that correct?
I've heard that thoughtless, reckless, and hateful language on our campus.
Yes.
So based upon your testimony, you understand that this call for intifada is to commit genocide against the Jewish people in Israel and globally, correct?
I will say again, that type of hateful speech is personally abhorrent to me.
Do you believe that type of hateful speech is contrary to Harvard's code of conduct or is it allowed at Harvard?
It is at odds with the values of Harvard.
Can you not say here that it is against the code of conduct at Harvard?
We embrace a commitment to free expression, even of views that are objectionable, offensive, hateful.
It's when that speech crosses into conduct that violates our policies against bullying, harassment, and intimidation.
Does that speech not cross that barrier?
Does that speech not call for the genocide of Jews and the elimination of Israel?
You testify that you understand that is the definition of intifada.
Is that speech according to the code of conduct or not?
We embrace a commitment to free expression and give a wide berth to free expression, even of views that are objectionable- You and I both know that's not the case.
You were aware that Harvard ranked dead last when it came to free speech.
Are you not aware of that report?
As I observed earlier, I reject that characterization of our campus.
It's the data shows it's true.
And isn't it true that Harvard previously rescinded multiple offers of admissions for applicants and accepted freshmen for sharing offensive memes, racist statements, sometimes as young as 16 years old.
Did Harvard not rescind those offers of admission?
That long predates my time as president.
But you understand that Harvard made that decision to rescind those offers of admission?
I have no reason to contradict the facts as you present them.
Correct, because it's a fact.
You're also aware that a Winthrop House faculty dean was let go over who he chose to legally represent, correct?
That was while you were dean.
That is an incorrect characterization of what transpired.
What's the characterization?
I'm not going to get into details about a personnel matter.
Well, let me ask you this.
Will admissions offers be rescinded or any disciplinary action be taken against students or applicants who say from the river to the sea or intifada advocating for the murder of Jews?
As I've said, that type of hateful, reckless, offensive speech is personally abhorrent to me.
And today that no action will be taken.
What action will be taken?
When speech crosses into conduct that violates our policies, including policies against bullying, harassment, or intimidation, we take action.
And we have robust disciplinary processes that allow us to hold individuals accountable.
What action has been taken against students who are harassing?
It's just annoying to hear because it's like, look, let me break this down.
Okay, I get part of the point that Elise is making, which is that, hey, your policy has been inconsistent.
You can't allow this to be said, but you can't fire somebody over a political statement that violates what Harvard may not like.
If you're going to be free speech, be free speech and have it apply to everybody.
If you're not...
Then you're not, right?
You can't cherry pick as her point, part of the point.
But then she also makes it a point to make it seem like that's somehow even a death threat.
To say from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.
I think it's a little bit of a stretch to say that that's a direct death threat and therefore shouldn't qualify as free speech.
Because, yeah, the Constitution does, the law makes it clear that if there is a direct threat to somebody's life, right, then that's illegal.
That is not protected.
That's not free speech.
That's just a threat at that point.
But that is very narrowly defined, meaning you have to be very specific with who you're trying to kill.
So just saying a statement like that is still protected by free speech laws, which is what the president was trying to say there.
So that's just an intellectually dishonest argument on behalf of Elise Stefanik.
And once again, the fervor in which she's arguing with this president Of Harvard is nowhere to be found when it comes to arguing on behalf of Christians and free speech for Christians, right?
I've never heard anybody in Congress really fight any sort of college professor, any sort of college campus, or any government entity on the issue of free speech and protection for Christians at all.
So, you know, I don't understand how it's considered wrong to point out exactly what I'm pointing out here.
Which is that I merely want to protect the 60-70% of Americans who have been persecuted for many, many years.
We've put aside our concern for ourselves, for this nation, and we're concerned with everybody else and everything else because that's what we've been told to do.
And yes, obviously, we shouldn't tolerate violence towards anybody, but that's not what's going on here.
We're having serious hearings over whether or not free speech should be allowed on college campuses, and I'm not for that.
I'm not for that.
Look, I've said this a million times.
I'll use myself as an example.
If you don't like Hispanics, and I get hate speech deemed by the left all the time from specifically leftists who hate that I cover the border, and they come after me and they say all sorts of racist things towards me simply because my last name is Perez.
They know nothing about my background, but they assume because my last name is Perez, I must have crossed here illegally.
I'm not even South American, that's the funny part, but that I must have a certain family background.
I must be this, I must be that, and they're always saying really bad things to me, right?
I don't really care that much because I'm an advocate of free speech and I understand that if I'm going to dish it, then I should be able to take it.
And I also understand that in order for a healthy marketplace of ideas to prosper, we need free speech.
And that's not necessarily even the point of the show, but just as a side comment, that needs to be addressed.
You can't, on one end, advocate for free speech when it's convenient for you, Elise, and then not advocate for it when it's a belief that you don't have, right?
Oh, well, I think that, I'm pro-Israel, so therefore everybody else should be, and free speech shouldn't be applied to People who support Palestine or whatever.
It doesn't matter.
That's not the point of free speech, you idiot.
I don't understand.
You look like a joke as a conservative when you say things like that.
And yeah, I agree.
I think Harvard should be more consistent with their free speech.
You know, if they're going to allow Palestinian protesters to say that or pro-Palestine protesters to say that, they should also allow people to practice, you know, whatever religion they believe in.
But the point of the matter is, I've just never seen Congress fight that way for Christians like they have for Jews.
I've never seen themselves twist themselves into pretzels to push against something that for so long they've defended, free speech that is, For Christians, which it would make way more sense to actually do that on behalf of Christians because there should be special tolerance for Christians, if anything, if anything, considering that this is our country and 60% of us make, 60 to 70% of us make up this country.
But no, instead, that special protected class is actually allocated to Jews in this country because we're so concerned about everybody else except for Christians.
And I'm sick and I'm tired of it.
And I'm tired of Congress lying to our faces.
I'm tired of the government lying to our faces.
I'm tired of the media lying to our faces.
And conservative media too.
And making us sound like they give a crap about us.
They don't.
In fact, they target us, which is exactly what we went through in the first part of the show.
They hate Christians.
Imagine.
Imagine if the script was flipped.
Imagine.
Imagine if that was how they treated Jews in this country.
It would never happen.
It would simply never happen.
Nobody should be treated that way, the way the government's treating Christians.
But it's just all the more interesting that it's happening to Christians out of everybody in this country.
Alright, so guys, I do want to go ahead and move on because I have one last thing I want to get to.
I want to bring up this clip that I heard.
Biden was speaking to the Angolan president and it was really weird, this whole bizarre interaction.
He was really simping for Angola.
For those of you who don't know what simping is, it means he was like obsessing over Angola and talking about How great it is and how it's the number one most critically important country to protect.
And I heard this and I was like, what the hell?
Where is this coming from?
Joe Biden is the Biden family must have done some business with Angola or something or they must have something to protect there because this was the most bizarre interaction I've heard.
Before I show it to you guys, though, I do want to ask you to please rumble the show if you haven't already and share the link.
All right, guys.
So here it is.
Here's Joe Biden's weird interaction with the Angolan president.
And we look forward to discussing the bilateral issues that concern our two countries.
Africa, one billion people.
critically important how it functions for the whole world.
And no country more important than Angola.
you No country more important than Angola.
Okay, this man needs to be removed.
Okay, it's his bedtime.
President of the United States says no country more important than Angola.
Oh, my goodness.
Like, he needed note cards for that one, all right?
You done screwed up, Biden staff.
You should have given him some note cards because you can't even leave the guy alone for 15 seconds with the Angolan president.
I mean...
Wrong answers only.
Leave in the comments below, why is Joe Biden simping for Angola?
Why?
Seriously?
Well, actually, I was going to say serious question, but wrong answers only implies, obviously, it's a joke.
But I posted that on my Twitter as well, and it's just the most bizarre interaction I came across.
All right, on that note, guys, we are already over time, so I do have to get going.
Thank you so much for tuning in today, guys.
Thank you for your support.
I love you all so much.
Make sure you rumble on the way out if you haven't already and share the link on your social media.
Send it to your family and friends.
And I'll see you back here tomorrow for a live show, another episode of Wrong Thing Primetime.
See you then, guys.
Love you very much and have a great rest of your night.
