Welcome back to Shots Fired.
Well, the election season is really, really heating up with the presidential candidates.
President Trump just won the Iowa caucus with a record margin.
And wow, he's over 30 points ahead of Ron DeSantis and the rest of the crew.
Pretty, pretty big.
So it just shows how many people the Republican Party are really surrounding him and have aligned with him in the last couple years.
That's really big.
And we're going to start with that.
We're going to do a bit of a news roundup.
In geopolitical news right now, what is happening around the world with Fiorella Isabel.
Fiorella Isabel is a journalist and geopolitical analyst and a news reporter at RT News.
And she's also the host at the Convote Couch and a lot more.
She can introduce herself a little bit more.
But I'm excited to have her on to get her take live from Moscow.
So Fiorella Isabel, thanks so much for joining Shots Fired for the first time.
How are you?
I'm doing pretty well.
Thank you for having me on.
Awesome.
It's great to have you.
So you're live from Moscow right now.
It's about one in the morning, your time.
Thanks for joining us.
You look beautiful at one in the morning, by the way.
Tell us what is your opinion about President Trump winning the Iowa caucus?
And what do you think that means for the presidential election moving forward?
I think Donald Trump winning the caucus has pretty much signified he's going to win the entire primary.
It's almost pointless to have it because he is so far ahead from his closest rivals being Ron DeSantis.
And all of the other candidates seem to be offering a more pro-establishment take on the situation.
And Trump has always come out as an outsider.
At least that's the way he has run his campaigns.
And in spite of all of the things going against him from the Democratic Party and from the liberal contingent, there is this idea that with Trump, there could be some sort of saving of the United States, largely there could be some sort of saving of the United States, largely Since I am abroad, that perspective is vital because people don't look at Biden as a leader.
They look at him as incompetent.
They're all making fun of Joe Biden and, of course, with it, the United States, which is not some place that most Americans want to be at.
And they see Trump as an opportunity to perhaps wind down these foreign wars that are happening all over the place that are taking us away from focusing on the domestic issues that are really important to Biden.
The American people.
And so many Americans are really fed up with Joe Biden.
I don't see a snowball's chance of Joe Biden at all really having a real chance if the election is fair.
And let's say that because honestly, we haven't seen fair elections, in my opinion, in a long time.
And the fact is that Joe Biden really under a fair system would not stand a chance against Donald Trump or most anybody for that matter at this point.
If there's a fair election system, and that's a really, really big if.
It's the million-dollar question, the $80 million vote question.
But really, I mean, we didn't see a fair election in 2020.
We saw what we thought was fair as far as people voting in record numbers.
We saw people, I mean, swarming to Trump's rallies.
I mean, they looked like cities being populated at his rallies.
And Biden was a basement campaigner.
He never went out of his basement, only a couple times to these very, very staged rallies that had what looked like actors there and puppets there and props.
So there's no way that he got 80 million votes.
And what is the most haunting is that that was when President Trump was actually president, and he still wasn't able to stop the election fraud.
So how, and that's the million dollar question, how can he possibly stop this fraud that's surely going to happen and surely been locked in mastery in the last couple years when he's not the active president?
How do you feel about that?
Right, so...
We haven't had fair elections in a long time, and that is obvious.
It was obvious in 2020.
The election system doesn't have what I would call security to it.
There is not a way to ensure that the elections are fair, especially with the mail-in ballots, especially with the changing to have a week to vote and people being able to transport these ballots.
There's no And I can say this because I've been to many countries all over the world, and all of them have IDs that are shown.
All of them have a special day when you vote that is one day and you have to vote where you're living.
And it's a lot of countries, even in what we would call developing world, that That's not because we can't.
It's by design.
Because if we were to actually choose a president, then we wouldn't have the people in power that we do.
So that's, I think, the first part that the American public needs to accept, especially the American public that didn't question the 2020 elections.
Now, the American people need to focus more so on the mechanisms, on the chain of custody, need to focus more so on the internal way that the elections are conducted, and really not focus so much on politicizing or Going after the outside factors,
whether it's the liberals going after Russia or conservatives going after China or Venezuela, whatever that is, focus on what our own government is doing, because that is the way you can hold them accountable.
And so I think in going into this election, people need to be watchful.
People need to take notes, need to be proactive in how this whole election is being conducted, because even though we don't have a smoking gun to prove that the elections are, quote unquote, fraudulent, what you can do is continue to gather evidence and continue to show that there's no possible way that Joe what you can do is continue to gather evidence and continue to show that there's no possible way that Joe Biden, who has the lowest approval rating of any president in recent history, and then you have him
And then you have Donald Trump that fills stadiums.
And somehow Joe Biden ends up winning and they stop the the they stop the election counting process.
All of these things, the fact that things aren't counted the day of and shown in a public way that happens in so many countries.
It's these simple things that need to be advocated for.
Yeah, absolutely.
Man, it would be so incredible if Trump was able to win again and able to actually get in there.
Just the desperation that the liberals are going to have.
When he does win, it's going to be crazy and it's going to be nuts and it's going to be pure chaos and riots, I'm sure.
What is the sentiment in Moscow of Joe Biden versus President Trump versus DeSantis?
I mean, What is kind of like the people on the streets talking about in regards to the candidates currently?
Yeah, I mean, Joe Biden is comical for a lot of people here, especially people in the political world.
A lot of people see the relationship was better with Russia under Donald Trump.
And in spite of that fact, the US was still pretty aggressive to some degree to Russia, but not to the level, obviously, of starting a war with Ukraine.
So what we're seeing here is that people see Trump as a preferred candidate to Joe Biden.
And that is mainly because they feel the relationship between the United States and Russia would actually improve and there could be some sort of talking to end this proxy war in Ukraine.
And so that, I think, is why people are thinking that Trump would be the better candidate.
And so that that I think is important because that is one reason why you have many people who are entirely disgruntled with Joe Biden.
Russia, Ukraine is one of the reasons, as well as, of course, the conflicts in the Middle East and what's happening in Gaza.
So Donald Trump, from this perspective, because Joe Biden is so bad, seems like, again, like he would be some sort of salvation or a chance to stop a global world war.
Absolutely.
So what is your opinion?
I've been hearing some of your opinions online on your X account.
What are your thoughts on this, especially this Israeli and Hamas war that just suddenly seemed to come out of nowhere that we're now spending a lot of money on?
Well, I think first off, the situation has been brewing for clearly a long time.
When we talk about Israel-Palestine, this has been going on way before October 7th.
Before October 7th, Israel was attacking a lot of the religious areas of the people of Gaza.
They've been attacking the West Bank also, which doesn't have any Hamas.
And so while what we see the excuse for Israel is they need to get Hamas, what they need, what the American people need to understand is that there is a belief in martyrdom.
Like there's a belief that they are fighting, Palestinians are fighting an existential war.
Therefore, they are resisting what Israel is doing.
Now, we have the United States has a close allyship with Israel.
However, the fact is, it seems like the Israeli government has taken precedence over the needs of the American people.
And that is something that everybody should oppose.
Why do we send billions of dollars to Ukraine and now to Israel?
And every single year, even before October 7th, we were sending billions of dollars to Israel.
And now we have to really argue, like, even if you don't care that 24,000 people Are being killed in Palestine.
And there's no possible way that all of these people, even if you were to prove that Hamas are terrorists, even if you were to prove any of that, which largely there is a lack of evidence for that to be.
Because if you go by international law at the UN, And what that says, Israel doesn't have a right to defend itself because it is an occupation, not in the way that it has been doing.
Now, this is why we see South Africa take them to the court before the International Criminal Justice Court, and we're seeing them lay out with evidence, with detail, with numbers, with data, what is happening and why that can't be justified, even if you could say That the October 7th attacks were, you know, uncalled for, that Hamas did this very bad thing.
There is no comparison to cause genocide.
And that is what the prosecution is arguing.
And I think that, you know, we should have our money, our tax dollars go to not kill children in Gaza.
I don't think that's what they should be doing.
They should go to help better the lives of people that are clearly distrusting their government, that are clearly divided.
We are the most divided we've ever been.
We're on the brink, in many cases, many think of civil war.
And that is what the elite want.
They want people to go to fight each other.
They want people to fight the working class, the middle class, whatever you want to call it.
They want the working people to go against each other instead of attacking those causing this division.
And if we allow ourselves to be divided that way, I think what will end up happening is the United States, as we know it, will be destroyed.
Yeah, I mean, it's crazy how much, again, it's like they were waiting for this and now they can just say, oh, genocide, you know.
You know, this is just such an excuse for genocide.
And, like, ethnic cleansing, if you will.
And it's pretty frightening, actually, how much the world, too, is with that, you know, is with that sentiment, and how much it kind of gives its blanket excuse to just, you know, kill them all.
Kill them all.
It's pretty scary.
And the damage, of course, that it's going to inflict, like you said, on the United States and in the rest of the world.
Yeah, and I think actually the majority of people initially started like, okay, let's try to end this, let's try to look at both angles, the majority of countries.
But given the hundred days that just passed, and given all of the information we have, and Israel has found itself even by its own outlets like Haaretz or the Israeli 24 news outlet, All of these saying October 7th, a lot of these Israelis died by friendly fire.
There is now more evidence of that.
There are a lot of lies coming out of the media and the way the United States is backing this doesn't make us look good to the rest of the world.
It doesn't really bring about I think?
It's not a bad thing to want peace and to let people in other countries handle their business and maintain their sovereignty and focus on themselves.
That is one way to also stop immigration.
This is another issue I have that when we talk about immigration sometimes, we need to focus on why people are immigrating too.
A lot of the times it's from our, in fact, most of the times I would say it's vastly our Regime changed wars.
It's vastly our interventions.
And we need to stop interfering in others' affairs and focus on rebuilding our country because, honestly, we're getting left behind.
What China's doing, what Russia's doing, the way things are clean here, the way crime is low here.
The way transportation works is really something that a lot of Americans don't know.
This is why we have many visitors to Moscow right now from the U.S. really seeing this and saying, wow, this is like insane.
Everything's so efficient.
Yeah.
Well, not everything, but a lot of things.
You see the good and the bad.
And you see the differences in how we can help each other.
But in this world right now, we're trying to oppose each other, and that's not how it should be.
Right.
So speaking of interfering and meddling in other countries, what are your predictions of what's going to be happening with the Ukraine and Russia war?
You know, I think that's all but finished in terms of, you know, who's going to, quote unquote, win.
Obviously, in war, there's really no winners in terms of loss and of life and loss of time and money.
But when we talk about, you know, numbers here, the Russia has effectively won.
They've conquered the territories that they feel needed to be liberated from that position, liberated from the Ukrainian Nazi army that had been going after and killing civilians in Donbass.
And of course, this is another conflict that didn't begin February of 2022 that began actually In 2014, with, of course, Victoria Nuland and Jeffrey Pyatt and all these people coming in and deposing of Viktor Yanukovych and installing their own puppet government.
There's so many documentaries talking about that.
And again, this issue is not a left or right issue either.
This is an issue about facts.
And this happened, and now afterwards we saw the devastation in Donbass since 2014, the killing of people who were ethnically Russian-speaking, Slavs, and a bunch of other people.
And of course, this has also happened because of the way the territory was divided.
And you had all these issues come to fruition, of course, in the modern day.
And now what we're seeing is the impossibility for Ukraine.
Ukraine can't be a part of NATO.
That is a red line of Russia because they know that if Ukraine becomes NATO, the whole point is to have this eye on Russia and to really be able to try to get rid of Putin or take control of this government.
And this is really something that isn't necessary.
And you don't want these people to do that because Russia has a completely different way of doing things.
It's more of a mix of the West and the East.
And they really all they love Americans here.
They really do.
There is no animosity towards me or towards any American that comes to visit here at all from Russians.
They actually are very curious.
They are very open and kind.
And they simply don't really have a hate.
I'm more critical of my government than they are.
And that includes people that I work with.
So it's kind of funny when a lot of people say, oh, Putin is Putin.
A lot of people here disagree politically, and they still manage to work together and say, okay, well, we don't want, you know, the US or NATO interfering in our affairs, and we're going to stick by our president.
And Russia, of course, also has an election.
This year.
And Putin actually called out the U.S. elections recently, talking about how, you know, those elections aren't fair, and they always say that the Russian elections aren't fair.
So it's a really interesting development, but I think in terms of the conflict, what's going to end up happening is Ukraine is going to have to give up the territories that chose to be with Russia.
Ukraine is going to have to make concessions to Russia.
But as long as Zelensky keeps Russia out of the equation, as long as they don't bring them in, To to have these conversations, Russia is going to continue doing this because this is an existential war for them.
They know that if they don't fight this, they're going to cease to exist to be Russia as they know it.
Yeah, absolutely.
Well, thank you for your thoughts, your insights and predictions for what's going to happen in 2024.

Welcome back to Shots Fired.
Well, I don't know about you, but I am really sick and tired of all of these teachers, these school teachers with blue and purple hair, and they're trying to shove their LGBTQ grooming gender criteria down your child's throat.
No pun intended.
They are so disgusting and they are trying to shape and mold your child and groom your child into a little advocate for the LGBTQIA LOMNOP agenda.
And they are sick, sick, sick teachers.
I'm tired of them and the majority of these school teachers are these people.
But not this one.
This next guest, Gabe Woolley, is actually a former LGBTQ individual, but he has healed his same-sex attraction and is no longer a part of that identity or that community.
And he's created a short film to talk about it, talk about how he healed it and why that's such a poisonous community.
The short film is entitled Identity Complex, and he is actually not only a school teacher, a good school teacher in Oklahoma, but he's also a producer and a podcaster, and he's the producer and director of the previous short film and documentary that he was on before called Saving Clayton, which documented the whole nightmare of CPS stealing Clayton.
People's Children Illegally.
Saving Clayton.
It's a great new documentary and it's actually available now for free, streaming free on YouTube, which you should absolutely watch.
So let's introduce our next guest, Gabe Woolley, director, producer, podcast host and school teacher.
Gabe Woolley, welcome back to Shots Fired.
How are you?
I'm good, Deanna.
How are you?
I'm good, thanks.
All right, so we had you on our show before, actually, to talk about Saving Clayton, the documentary, where we documented the horrific CPS story, DCF story, that happened to a family member of yours.
So before we go into your next short film that talks about how you healed your same-sex attraction and LGBTQ identity, just give us a quick update of what's happening with Saving Clayton and How that documentary is now available to stream, I believe, on YouTube, correct?
Absolutely.
So the award-winning documentary, Saving Clayton, was a local grassroots operation by Red River Creative Media and Project 46 about my family's story.
My parents, Bill and Lisa Woolley, had guardianship of Clayton and Elijah while my sister was seeking drug rehabilitation.
She's been a drug addict on and off for 15 years.
They saved the boy's life by taking custody while she was getting help.
And Elijah, in the middle of the night, died in his crib.
Likely from sudden infant death syndrome.
They called 911 and a biased detective, before he even got to the scene, decided that there's no such thing as SIDS and that this was a murder case and pinned it as a murder, pinned our family.
As a Christian family particularly ended up targeting us because of that, because he had a vendetta against some Christians that have hurt him and abused his niece in the past that he used to care for.
He exposed that story to two different witnesses.
And my parents went to jail for eight months for crimes they didn't commit.
DHS Child Protective Services took Clayton and my 17 year old sister Elijah was dead.
And since charges were all dropped in 2021, They never gave Clayton back.
So they took him because of the charges, dropped those charges, and kept him.
Cause and effect, but it doesn't work that way backwards.
They can just keep your child after that.
So that's where we're at with Saving Clayton.
The documentary is now available free on YouTube.
If you type in Saving Clayton, the Woolley family, W-O-O-L-L-E-Y, you can watch that free.
Help share that.
We need that to be going everywhere, not just for our own sake and for Clayton's sake, but to help other families.
Absolutely.
Cool.
So go watch the documentary Saving Clayton.
It's really powerful.
Now let's talk about your journey, too, because you're releasing a short film.
And tell us the name of the film again.
Sure.
The film is called Identity Complex.
It's actually called Identity Complex Part Two.
I did an episode of a podcast with a friend of mine who had been through something similar, and we mutually shared some small parts of our story.
So this part two is just my own story.
As a former member of the LGBTQ community, having left that brand, left that identity, and now on this journey of pursuing A relationship for my own, for what I want, a relationship that reflects the creation of how God made us to be and honors Him.
That's my own journey.
That's the choice that I've made for myself.
Okay.
Well, congratulations on that journey.
A lot of members of your community, they spend so much of their life rationalizing it and justifying why it's okay and justifying God giving them his blessing, why it's okay.
So they spend their life really rationalizing it and being stuck in that identity.
And it really does become their whole identity.
Compromising it, really.
I think like something you said that stuck out, trying to rationalize it When we even look, maybe there's the religious aspect to it or there's not.
We even see, you know, Christians struggle with same-sex attraction.
Like, no one is exempt from it.
It just happens to certain people for whatever reason it may be.
Your story, your starting point could look different.
But we really see a big movement in the churches in trying to couple the same-sex attraction of the LGBTQ movement with their faith and thinking they can have both.
I, for myself and my understanding and through my studies, I experience this too, but I also study it.
And I don't believe you can have both.
I think you can pretend or think you have both your faith and your LGBTQ status or your other gods, small g, whatever it is that you worship through your everyday practice, whatever you commit yourself to becomes your idol.
We compromise and think that we can have both, but really one is going to be just a brand we wear and the other one is going to be our actual identity.
As much as we'd like to think we have both, I don't genuinely believe wholeheartedly In a way that's honoring to God and the way he created man and woman to be, you could compromise and have both.
Amen.
I believe that too.
I agree with that.
And you would say you're a conservative, right?
Would you say that you lean conservative politically?
I'm conservative because of my Christian faith.
It's not really the other way around.
But because of my faith, the conservative boxes are checked.
They align more with my politics because of my faith.
Okay, so given that, what do you think, and I'm not asking, I'm not trying to name drop, you know, call out certain people, but what do you think about the fact that Trump did, actually, President Trump, he brought in kind of a big tent through his presidency, and he sort of made it, you know, he kind of brought in actually a lot of gays and LGBTQ people into the Trump movement.
that that felt like they were cast aside from the Republican crowd before Trump came into office.
And, you know, we have a lot of even leaders of movements within the Trump community, like Brandon Strzok, for instance, Brandon Strzok, the leader of the walkaway movement.
And he's done a lot of incredible things for the conservative movement.
So I, you know, I commend him for it.
But there are a lot of kind of outspoken gay figures in the Trump movement.
That are conservative, or they say that their politics are conservative, and yet they're still gay.
So what do you think, I guess, about that?
I'm not trying to put you on the spot, but what do you think?
Is that something that they maybe should look into, look inward a little bit more, pray more about, and really think if that could be aligned, or if they're again kind of in denial?
Here's the thing, and I see what you're getting at and the point that we want to decide, is this really a conservative value?
Like, are we going to throw out the conservative value of family structure, man, woman, children, and for most conservatives, God, man, woman, children?
That is a conservative principle.
The original family unit, the way it was designed to be at the core of it, if you had like this list of pillar conservative values, family is one of those pillars and the structure of it and preserving for the sake of the future and generations the way that reproduction and family was made to be.
So we have this idea now, which maybe at one point seemed more liberal or maybe people were just staying out of it in the middle when it came to LGBTQ things.
Now we see people Taking things so far left and right that even people in the gay community, you see gays against groomers, this is too far.
We once maybe were with the LGBTQ community, or maybe we are just considered same-sex attraction, but we don't follow that umbrella of pride or LGBTQ. And so they're coming over more to the conservative side.
Where I stand now, and I'm going to continue researching this and look into other people's stories and pray about it, I think that you can hold conservative values and be someone that still says, well, I'm a man and I'm going to marry another man and have a family and be a conservative.
That part about you is probably the part that's not conservative.
I think that you can...
We make our choices, you know, like what we believe.
Everyone has to do that on an individual level.
And if you laid out all these principles, conservative, liberal in the middle, and you checked your boxes, and the higher percentage ends up being conservative, If you want to go register as a Republican and be conservative, you have that to do.
But there is something to be said when other people come into the tents, the umbrella, and they are going to bring that piece of them with it, correct?
They are still going to bring their same-sex attraction and justify that.
It doesn't leave them.
It's a part of them.
That is going to shape the conservative movement.
That is going to start shaping and changing the Republican Party.
I mean, that is just a reality.
That is a reality.
Do we need it to change in that way?
I think, and I've heard the argument before, Christianity is not synonymous to conservatism.
And that's correct.
I don't think that they're exactly synonymous.
I believe you could be a conservative and not be a religious person and still hold all the small government, family first, conservative principles.
Again, like what I said with myself, I'm conservative because of my Christian faith.
I'm not Christian because I'm conservative.
I have my Christian faith and that's my foundation.
And when you look at my boxes, they're all checked because I check them according to my Christian faith and guess which umbrella they fall under?
Conservative.
And so I'm Republican and conservative because of that.
But again, I guess the point that I would really leave with on this is As we do continue to widen that tent, and maybe we should, maybe we shouldn't.
That's a debate that could continue.
It is going to shape the Republican Party as a whole.
It is going to be able to change things.
There's no way around that.
If you let in more values and more belief systems and allow them to thrive in that community...
As humans are, it will begin to spread and cause controversy and enlargen, and it will begin to shape the party.
That's just the reality of it.
So I think the question for us is, is that direction we want to go and continue identifying with this?
Are we okay with it?
I mean, every person has to make that decision on their own, but we are going to see things shifting, and we are already seeing them shifting.
Yeah, that is true.
It's getting a little more soft and more to the left.
So tell us a little bit about your journey of how you, I guess, healed your same-sex attraction.
How you overcame that LGBTQ identity.
It certainly had to be a choice.
And there had to be something rooted in me that didn't make me go...
At the end of the day, if you get out of it, it didn't make me maybe go 100% in.
There was always some small percentage of me pulling, like, this is wrong, this is not what you want, this doesn't align with what you've chosen for your life, with your faith and with your family.
So I would say that in my heart, even though my actions and things appeared to be 100% in, going out to the gay clubs, going out to the, you know, Being engaged, I didn't really go to a Pride Festival.
It's not very big in Tulsa, but engaged still in much of that lifestyle and observing and secretly living it.
I think it was more closeted in my sense.
I wasn't ever out completely.
I would go out and be out with certain people.
But that is something that I had to realize.
I always knew in my heart, this isn't going to last.
I took things.
There's always this scale of perversion.
And perversion always wants more.
And when it was the porn addiction, I think, oh, I can control it.
I would never act out on it.
And then you act out on it because you didn't contain the porn addiction and it wants more.
The dopamine is going to demand more.
And then, okay, I acted upon it, but I would never date a man.
And if you don't Firmly put your foot down and set the boundary.
You think you can control that scale?
You can't.
And I did end up dating a man.
Okay, but I would never marry a man.
I didn't get to that point.
I didn't marry a man.
I had that confliction inside of me and I always knew in the back of my head this wasn't going to last.
And so I had to stop that scale of perversion.
I had to stop feeding it.
I had to find alternatives because when you empty something out of yourself, there's a hollow spot that has to be filled with something or the hunger is going to drive you crazy and it's going to come right back and fill that spot again.
So it is a thing you have to actively participate.
You can't just block all the websites and block all the apps.
Maybe that's useful.
But you actually have to fill those hollow spots with something or it's coming right back.
Yeah, absolutely.
So do you feel that...
Do you think God...
Did you pray, I guess, to have Him help heal your same-sex attraction?
My whole life.
And you hear this term, pray the gay away.
Yeah, pray the gay away.
The negative stigma about things.
This idea of praying without putting the car in drive and thinking that just praying in and of itself and prayer is powerful.
And yes, you pray, but prayer takes action.
You actually have to participate with prayer.
It's not just words you put into the air.
It's a heart posture.
It does demand action from you.
And so it wasn't enough.
And if the prayer gave away, pray the gave away, If people talk about prayer being a failure, I would question what prayer looks like to them and question what their prayer was and their understanding of prayer was.
Prayer is a verb.
There's action required to it.
Prayer is not just a noun, not just a thing.
Prayer is a verb.
There's actually setting up boundaries, finding community, Bringing things to the light, not keeping it to yourself.
If you're just praying by yourself all the time, that's not going to do the same as when you have your moments alone with God and pray, and you have a prayer partner, and you have someone you can trust and open up to, and where two or more are gathered, everything you see in the scriptures, or religion aside, see in biology.
We were not made to be alone and exist alone on earth.
We actually need each other for community.
We have to communicate, have public square, debate things.
I understand where people are coming from.
If they felt like they took it into their own hands and their prayers in secret failed them, maybe the prayer in secret was the part that we need to re-evaluate.
You do pray intimately between you and God, but you also pray with community.
You also have to bring it into the light.
If you're just trying to deal with it all on your own, I would say that's where we drop the ball.
Yeah, absolutely.
And yeah, I do believe that if you seek God's assistance and you're intentional about wanting to change your same-sex attraction, I do think God can help you heal.
I've heard many testimonies about that.
Yeah, but you have to participate.
Yeah, you do have to participate.
You have to do the actions.
You don't just put the car in park and wait for him to do something.
Yeah, you do.
You have to say, you know, this is a bad thought.
You know, let me choose better thoughts that, you know, align with my new goal.
So I know that you don't have a crystal ball or you don't know all the answers, but in your heart, do you think that gay, gayness, is a choice?
Is it something you're born with or do you think something that is developed through early childhood experiences or trauma or things like that?
What do you think?
And maybe it's different for certain people too.
And maybe I think people's answers to this would be different.
But because my reality is my faith, you know, and because I have chosen to participate with that and I have knocked on the door and he's answered and I have pushed in and I have actually seen the results of it, like it's been proven to me on a personal level.
Even if everybody else, they do their own thing.
I have seen it too intimately and personally with myself to deny it.
You know, I can't deny what I have seen and experienced now.
So I cannot believe that there is a God that would call something a sin and then make you just be born with it.
Be born that way.
Yeah, that's a really good point.
This is going to condemn you and you have no choice but to have it.
Those two would cancel each other out.
We are born with sin, and we need Jesus, of course.
But to say that this is just how you're going to be, and by the way, it's also a sin that's going to condemn you, just like every other sin is going to, and there's nothing you can do about it.
Good luck.
Then God isn't God, and Jesus isn't Jesus as the way that the Bible would explain to him.
That wouldn't make sense.
It wouldn't be logical.
And so I don't believe that you're born gay, but I completely understand why people think that.
If you can't pinpoint one instance in your life where it started, and you can't actually look at your timeline and target something, then the natural inclination would be that you were born this way.
If you can't find the pivotal moments, if you can't target them and find the starting point and find the ending point and look at a map, well then it must have just always been.
We've tried and tried to find the starting point.
We've tried and tried to use the solution and it doesn't work.
It must have always been.
I understand why people think that.
I don't agree with it.
Amen.
I happen to agree with your point there.
And I think, you know, most people, if they're honest, can pinpoint to trauma when they were in their childhood or things like that that occurred that sort of got them on that path.
Sure.
And I think a starting point for some people, whether if you're spiritual or not, what I believe and what I've seen in my life, I can only speak from that.
I think some of the trauma points start on a spiritual level that we couldn't Recognized in the natural, so we think nothing happens.
But, you know, of course everything...
I don't always try to speak Too much about Christianity, faith, faith, faith.
I let that be why I'm speaking, but I don't want to turn people away that aren't religious and be like, oh, this is like a guy preaching at me.
I don't want to hear it, you know?
I try to balance between scientific and my religion.
I can't get away from my faith.
That's just how it is.
You could also look at things on a scientific level in biology, and let's put the religion aspect aside if someone's not religious and we still want them to be able to take something away from today's conversation.
Look at the anatomy of the human body, of a man and a woman, and how reproduction works, and the purpose of family, and what we get out of having intimate relationships with people, and how it has actually impacted us on an individual level.
There's just no way...
If you put...
If you put all men...
On an island and no females, the population would die out.
If you put all females on an island and no males, they would die out, right?
Similar argument we heard for the transgender movement.
If you put a bunch of transgender men on an island and they all died, you would look at their anatomy and their body and the historians would say, oh, this was a woman.
Right?
But no, they identified as a man.
That was a man.
Well, at the end of the day, biology and science wins.
It's the same argument when it comes to our sexuality, when you look at it from a scientific perspective of reproduction, family unit, society, and how it's been successful, the roles that women and men play in society and in family that are equally as important.
There's just no getting around it.
Yeah.
Amen.

Well, the presidential election season is heating up, getting really exciting.
President Trump just won the Iowa caucus by a long shot.
DeSantis is really falling in the dust.
And what are our predictions?
What's going to be happening in the next couple months?
Well, Patrick Howley is joining the show to talk about it.
Patrick Howley from National File and, of course, the Stu Peters Network.
Patrick Howley, what are your thoughts so far about what's going on and what the latest developments have been?
Yeah, so as expected, President Donald Trump is the overwhelming frontrunner for the Republican nomination.
I feel as though probably DeSantis, the people in DeSantis' world, are starting to get laid off in his PAC world and the people who are around him.
That social media influencer project that Christina Pushaw set up did not work.
It was one of the few cases in which social media influencers sort of had a negative impact on public approval.
They proved so unlikable that people liked the candidate a lot less.
And I think their strategic mistake was that they not only attacked Trump, but they really attacked Trump supporters as well.
And, you know, went after them.
And that really did not work out well for them.
So Nikki Haley is the great...
Sorry, not to interrupt, but wouldn't you say, just to be fair, that also Trump's camp also attacked DeSantis supporters quite heavily, too, over the last year.
I mean, just to be fair, they really definitely did.
I feel like it was almost, you know, pretty even as far as who was attacking who.
Well, sure.
But Trump is great at attacking people.
He's very talented at it.
He has many decades of feuds with various people that he's won.
And I mean, from Rosie O'Donnell to Lion Ted, I mean, people all over the spectrum, really, in politics and entertainment and arts and letters have feuded with Donald Trump at one point or another.
And he's just very, very good at it.
And so, you know, DeSantis...
He didn't really have the eye of the tiger in terms of stepping into the arena with Trump there.
But now you got Nikki Haley.
But that's why I would have wanted to see a debate.
I mean, that's what Trump is so gold at these debates.
And the fact that he's evaded all of these debates, I think, has hurt him a little bit.
But I guess the numbers show otherwise.
But I think that it's It could have brought so much more excitement to the presidential election season.
I always looked forward to the debates, and now that he's not on them, I don't know about you, but it's pretty frustrating.
I think there's a big missing there.
Yeah, definitely.
And so, I mean, he made the strategic decision to do that, and it ended up panning out for him because the ratings for the debates were so low.
And then, you know, his ratings on Tucker Carlson were much higher, so he made that strategic choice.
You know, he's a great strategist and, you know, really always has been.
And so, you know, he knows his audience very well.
And when it comes to New Hampshire, I think it's going to be a little bit closer than Iowa was.
Haley is going to come in number two, but Trump is still probably going to be pretty solidly ahead.
What they're trying to do is broker it because of Trump's, you know, they're trying to railroad him.
So they're trying to broker a situation where Nikki Haley is sort of like a I don't want to say Lyndon Johnson running mate.
You know, remember John F. Kennedy said the only reason that he picked Lyndon Johnson as his running mate was because the bastards were going to frame me.
And then, you know, unfortunately, we know what happened to Kennedy.
So I think it would be a terrible decision to go with Nikki Haley.
But the establishment is trying to broker it that way so that, you know, Trump really doesn't have a choice.
There's a ton of pressure on him right now in order to do that.
That's what's going to happen.
If Haley gets held to a very low vote share in New Hampshire, then that might fall apart.
Right.
I mean, yeah.
Nikki Haley is the clear establishment pick.
I mean, that's pretty obvious.
And nobody that's a real true conservative cares about or likes Nikki Haley.
I don't like her.
Yeah, you don't like her.
I don't like her.
I mean, she's just an establishment puppet and says all the perfect establishment puppet sound bites.
What about Carrie Lake?
You know, what about the chances of some other different running mates that I think would be a lot more Trumpian to have as a running mate for, you know, and a great vice president potentially for Trump if he won.
I mean, Carrie Lake is pretty Trumpian.
Yeah, I mean, I've heard Tucker talk about it.
I don't think Tucker would do it because he would have to, you know, basically sign off on various compromises.
Remember the Trump administration almost got into a war with Iran last time.
It was really Tucker who stopped that when he was still on Fox News and stuff.
Vice President's a meaningless position.
All it does is break a tie in the Senate, which is going to go party line anyway.
What a Vice President can do is stop the certification of a fraudulent election, which obviously Mike Pence did not do.
But the Biden people are basically saying that they want Trump to be the nominee, which may...
I don't really believe that.
I think they're trying to save face and pretend that that's what they want because things sort of gotten away from them.
I mean, Trump is definitely going to be harder to beat in a general than Somebody like DeSantis or Haley or Chris Christie or one of these other folks, just because his voters are going to show up in person on same-day voting.
They're going to wait hours and hours, no matter how cold it is, to vote for him.
And then so you get into the general, and then you have Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
there as well, who's getting double digits, in some cases as high as 21%.
And he says he can win with 34%.
And so, you know, it's going to be an interesting situation.
And then, obviously, the establishment is going to do anything that they can to try to keep Trump off of the ballots or try to railroad him in some way with his criminal cases, even though, you know, he's not guilty.
I'm not trying to legitimize the process, but it's quite possible that he could get convicted on one or more things simply just because they all hate him and they're trying to continue.
So hopefully, you know, things are very uncertain, though, you know, at this time.
Yeah, definitely.
You know, it's interesting because I thought Trump, DeSantis had a lot of potential at first, just from an outsider, because of how he took care of Florida and all the accomplishments in Florida.
And when he got reelected by a landslide, you know, the Floridians really loved him and he gave a great speech.
And everyone, a lot of the country really liked him.
Before sort of the Trump smear campaign began.
And so I did think that he had some potential there.
But I think then all of a sudden Vivek came and sort of stole his thunder a lot.
First of all, I think Vivek came and stole DeSantis' thunder.
And I also think that DeSantis isn't very strong when he's debating or when he's on stage.
He kind of lacks.
He lacks that charisma and he lacks the the way sort of that Trump is just really strong and really out there.
Well, you know, Trump's a New York showbiz legend.
I mean, this is a guy who is capable of hosting Saturday Night Live in his own right as soon as he got into the presidential race, which really revolted him at the time when he was dancing to Drake.
So he has that training.
He's a pro, obviously, and a genius at it.
And that really is one of his true geniuses.
But if you look at, for instance, you know, I guess, I mean, the race going forward here, if you look at the fact that You know, the Republican establishment, the RNC, is still under the control of Ronna Romney, right?
And they still don't want Trump.
They still believe that it's a race for second place and that if Nikki Haley is able to get second, then she can somehow be the nominee, that they'll somehow force Trump out.
And I know that, you know, Trump's putting up a big resistance to that.
So, you know, it's sort of an unprecedented election and they're still going to do everything they can through this legal mechanism to try to stop him.
And then in the general, You know, of course, the Democrats still have their vote-stealing operation.
The Republicans haven't stopped that yet.
And at the end of the day, like you mentioned Vivek, who just came out of nowhere.
He's a pharmaceutical billionaire, and he's America first, but he's who?
The conservative establishment, he's one of the young people, so when they're not railing against young people all day for being lazy and entitled and looking at their phones and all of this, I guess they like young people if it's a high caste, Brahmin, Indian, pharmaceutical billionaire, not so much if it's a white millennial, right?
So in general, this whole thing has just gotten, the whole conservatism project is just so far different than America First and the populist needs of the country at this point.
So, you know, to the extent Trump can change the party, then it can go in a new direction.
But he was not able to change the party the first time around.
McConnell is still in there.
Ronald Romney is still in there.
And Kevin McCarthy was only removed recently by Noel Fritch and Matt Gaetz, not by Trump.
So, you know, it's...
There's some things that Trump needs to...
Speak for and account for.
I mean, really, like, you know, there's some things that some hiring decisions, some some decisions around vaccines and operation work speed and covid.
I just feel like there's a lot of things that I would like him to to be on a debate stage for and really answer for before everybody can throw in their full support, you know, for President Trump.
There's a lot.
Yeah.
I mean, you know, half of Iowa isn't, you know, half of Iowa Republicans, you know, is, you know, It's just getting started in terms of how many people are out there It's a very, very big country.
So there's still a lot of possibilities at play.
Yeah, absolutely.
All right, well, thank you for the election update.
