Millstone Report w Paul Harrell: Tractor Supply BOYCOTT, Levine Wants NO AGE LIMIT On Trans Surgery!
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Thank you.
Thank you.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the program.
Thanks so much for being with us.
As always, my name is Paul Harrell and you have found the Millstone Report and we always appreciate you guys being with us every single day.
Okay, so this time last year Americans were outraged.
I don't even remember this.
They were outraged that Bud Light promoted A confused man who dresses like a woman and actually thinks he's a woman and put them on their beer can.
I know we all remember that.
The boycott that followed made headlines and that's why this year woke LGBTers on Reddit are complaining that they're seeing less rainbow merchandise at big box stores than ever before.
Well, not ever before.
And while that may be true, the woke corporations have been on board disseminating this propaganda for so long in previous summers and previous Junes that the damage to small-town America, as we've said, has already been done.
Because of the widespread promoted message that sodomy is good for you and is something that should be celebrated, members of that cult have been emboldened to gaily flaunt their anti-family lifestyles in public parades.
And of course, local mainstream media corporate news affiliates cover these parades with glee and even try to claim that the Pride Parade attendees are victims because of Christian red states who are passing laws to protect children from them, from the LGBT. What a joke.
But while some corporations like Bud Light are trying to save their reputations and recover their once great American image, other corporations are still being led by CEOs who have bought into the woke mind virus hook, line, and sinker.
They are disciples of woke and have been taught to use their companies as tools to parrot morally bankrupt societal narratives for purposes of virtue signaling, gaslighting, and demoralizing the American people and the American public.
You see, apparently the people at the top of these companies actually have great disdain for the people who buy their products and services.
And they feel the need to educate, lecture, and proselytize their clientele on all the ways they are living wrongly.
Or, dare I say it, harbors subconscious racial bias?
Oh, the humanity.
One of those CEOs is a man, I think, by the name of Hal Lawton.
Hal Lawton is the CEO of Tractor Supply.
I'm sure most of you know what kind of store Tractor Supply is, but for those of you who don't, Tractor Supply is generally a great store, or was, that caters to farmers, ranchers, and people who are outside in nature and around animals and enjoy being around those things.
My wife always wants to go there every spring to get more chickens, and I have to say, honey, no, we have plenty of chickens.
But thanks to Hal Lawton, there are now calls to boycott Tractor Supply stores.
You see, Hal Lawton is woke, as we'll see here in just a moment.
He believes in diversity, equity, and inclusion.
Tractor Supply donates to groups that support the T's.
In the LGB acronym.
And this has angered tractor supply customers because, surprise, surprise, they don't want to do business with companies that hate them.
They don't want to fund their own demise.
Sometimes if you want the best summary of how a story gets started, the origins of that story, you can actually just go check out what the communists are saying about it.
And for that, we turn to Pink News with this headline, quote, Because they have LGBTQ plus staff initiatives.
The story goes on, quote, Rural retail chain company Tractor Supply are facing calls for a boycott for, amongst other things, donating money to diversity, equity, and inclusion causes, which included projects that support LGBTQ plus youth.
It goes on, right-wing activist Robbie Starbuck, who directed the controversial, gender-critical, anti-LGBTQ plus documentary, The War on Children, recently took to X, formerly Twitter, to call out Tractor Supply for their diversity, equality, and inclusion work, including having Pride Month decorations in their office.
As well as complaining about Tractor Supply's LGBTQ plus training.
Let's see, where are we?
LGBTQ... Let's see.
Training for employees.
Funding pride slash drag events.
They have a DEI council.
Funding sex change operations.
Climate change activism, Pride Month Decorations Office, DEI hiring practices, and LGBTQ plus events at work.
In a follow-up tweet, he wrote, Wow, Tractor Supply bragged in one of their yearly reports that they donated more than $570,000 to DEI, including LGBTQ plus youth.
Yes, Tractor Supply thinks kids can be trans, and they support it by the looks of this.
How many of their customers know this?
Hmm.
Well, that is a very good question.
How many of their customers know this?
That's a great question, and from what I can tell, their customers are pretty mad about it.
Someone who calls themselves enough is enough on X had this to say on Twitter.
Quote, I've dropped Tractor Supply like it's hot.
Shop local coops.
Make sure you use your local feed stores.
Don't shop at Tractor Supply.
Go woke.
Go broke.
End quote.
And I'll say that the boycott appears to be working because over the past five days, company stock prices have taken a nosedive.
Look.
Look at this.
It's down almost 8% in the last five days.
Now, does this mean that the boycott is having an effect?
Well, that's a good question.
Some might say, oh, no, that's just typical.
You know, normal stock price behavior.
I don't know.
Well, I actually think there's evidence to suggest that it is working, and that's because of what Tractor Supply did this morning.
I think they're taking notice because today, this morning, they posted this on their website, and it's at the top of Google search results when you Google Tractor Supply.
Quote, Tractor Supply honors America's military service members, veterans, and first responders with $1 million donation, end quote.
Nothing like throwing a little money around at veterans charities to smooth over your support for transing kids and LGBT grooming, I guess.
I mean, do you really think that this is going to work?
I mean, I don't know.
I'm sure the CEO does.
I'm sure of course he does.
CEOs like Hal Lawton likely have no intention of changing their ways.
Because here's the truth.
Here's a little secret.
He thinks that he's better than us.
He thinks that he's better than you.
He thinks that he's morally superior to buy into this nonsense.
Here he is telling the story about a white tractor supply employee helping a black man.
And get this, he credits tractor supply...
He credits Tractor Supply's woke commitment to DEI, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, as the reason why a white employee treated a black man, a customer, with courtesy and respect.
Why?
You mentioned DEI. That is a critical...
It's a strategic priority for us.
It's not even a priority.
It's the right thing to do and we're committed to it.
We've had long-standing efforts in that area.
We've amplified those in the last year.
We are committed to representing the communities we serve in a way that represents the spectrum of those in that community.
You know, a story that I have on that.
And we've been spending a lot of time talking about respect and talking about what that means inside of tractor supply.
And I had a customer email me.
It was a gentleman who worked at the BMW plant in South Carolina.
He's an industrial engineer, a black gentleman.
It's noteworthy just because of the interaction.
And he mentioned it in his email.
He was in Kentucky with his son's baseball game when the storms came through a few weeks ago, the cold weather and caught everybody unprepared.
They had they were able to purchase some heaters to put in the dugouts to keep the team warm.
They didn't have propane to run them and they needed tanks.
And they went to countless stores.
And I'm sure given this customer's profile and he implied this in his email, we were not the first top of mind store they would go to.
But he finally found a track supply and went in.
And our team member explained to him that we were out of propane tanks like everyone else really across the country because they were using for heating and cooking and other means.
The customer explained his situation to our team member.
Our team member walked him outside to his truck, opened the back of the truck, grabbed two empty propane tanks, gave them to him, and said, let's get these filled up so you can keep your boys warm.
And the team member tried to pay the team members for the tanks because those probably have a $20, $30 value apiece.
And the team member refused and said, just pay it forward.
Our team member was white.
When the customer emailed, he said, hey, look, I really hadn't been in track supply.
I was blown away.
You have a great store, but more importantly, you have great team members.
I want to acknowledge both the racial differences between us two, because in today's world, small acts of kindness, particularly across races, goes a long ways.
That's the type...
It's really tough to measure D&I efforts at times.
You can measure your reputation.
You can measure your purchases from diverse suppliers.
But ultimately, if your workforce doesn't embrace it and your organization, those measurements don't really matter.
And so those sorts of things, those sorts of customer interactions are really what it's all about.
Did you catch that?
According to woke tractor supply CEO Hal Lawton, white DEI policy saved this employee from his own ignorance and bigotry and racism.
If it hadn't been for the DEI policies of tractor supply and Hal Lawton, then the white man would Wouldn't have helped the black man keep the baseball dugout warm because he would have caved to his white supremacy bias and let the black little leaguers freeze to death.
Now how idiotic do you have to be to actually believe your own nonsense to this level?
And say it out loud.
The white employee helped the black guy because he's obviously a nice person who was trying to help a guy in need in the middle of a snowstorm.
Race had nothing to do with it.
The woke mind virus is real.
But if you needed any more reason to boycott Tractor Supply, here's a corporate video of the company's celebration of National Women's Equality Day, which at times kind of feels like a hostage video, but some of these women really do believe it.
Watch.
The right to vote is the right to help shape our future.
And I think that's something that women are an essential and incredibly important part of.
My right to vote as a woman means I have the right to choose officials and policies that will govern my life.
I'm considered a full person and my opinions matter.
Voting is important to me because at one point in this country, women were not even allowed to vote.
So I can't and I won't take for granted the right that voting gives me.
It's my hand, it's my voice in choosing the elected officials that will be making decisions that directly and indirectly impact me and my community.
Early in my career I met a man who was a big influence on why I vote.
He is first generation American and he shared the story with me about how his parents survived Nazi Germany and eventually settled in the United States.
I vote because there's still many people in this world that don't have the right to vote or say in how they're governed.
I made a vow to myself back then that I would vote in every local and national election possible and that I would not take this precious right for granted.
It is an absolute right and privilege for us as women to be able to vote.
My grandma Sally, who was born in 1910 in a tiny little farm town in North Dakota, not only voted in every election, but she campaigned heavily and she also worked the polls until the year she died in 1998.
It is important for all of us to listen, to learn, to get out and vote and have our voices heard.
It is our right.
It is our duty.
And 102 years ago, women spent seven decades to get us to where we are today.
Women's Equality Day means so much to me.
The idea that just over 100 years ago, women could not vote is so mind-blowing to me.
I'm thankful for my right to express my preferences for the politics and democracy of the greatest country in the world.
2022 Tractor Supply.
Happy Women's Equality Day.
Yay!
Okay, maybe it wasn't as much of a hostage video, but...
Have you ever met a woman, by the way, that wishes that she didn't have the right to vote?
Like, I'm talking about, I've met a few that are, they're so intelligent in their thinking, I would say, that they've charted, let's just say, they are Christian women, moral women, and they see the moral decline of our society, and they chart it with women getting the right to vote.
And it really just comes down to, really, emotionalism.
And our entire society now is literally catered to, you know, a feminized version of what it was in the name of equality.
And what does that mean?
It means emotional arguments are being...
I mean, look, your female news anchors on the news, they're more sympathetic to emotional arguments.
Obviously, the male ones have kowtowed to that as well, for the most part.
So our entire society is not based on logic or critical thinking.
It's now based on emotion.
It's based on having sympathy and empathy for people.
And if you create the argument in that way, most of our society, if you use those tools, most of our society will come on board your side based on empathy, really.
That's what it's all about.
But have you ever met a woman who says, yeah, I wish I didn't have the right to vote?
They're out there, believe it or not.
And actually, more and more people are saying that.
More and more women are saying that because I think they realize, again, the fight over the patriarchy, the war against the patriarchy was never really about replacing the patriarchy with a gynocracy.
Although, I mean, it does feel like we are living in a gynocracy.
It's really one patriarchy for another.
If you have a biblical patriarchy, you have a patriarchy that protects society and the children and the women that live in that society.
And if you don't have a biblical patriarchy, you still have a patriarchy where women are abused, they're sexualized as objects, and told that that's somehow liberating, and in people's lives, families are destroyed.
There's a huge difference there.
By the way, though, thanks to Robbie Starbuck for staying on the story about Tractor Supply for the last several weeks and bringing this to light.
Matter of fact, let's go to the screen and let's watch some more about this.
I'm sorry, read some more about this.
This is why I think the boycott is working, as I said earlier.
This was from Tractor Supply Today, this morning.
And again, it's at the top of the Google search results if you want to take a look at it.
Tractor Supply honors America's military service members...
Veterans and first responders with $1 million donation.
Now, we're supposed to believe, I guess, that this is just a random act of kindness, when in reality it's coming in the middle of people upset that their woke CEO is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion and is also committed to funding the rainbow brown shirts, the rainbow mafia, if you will.
Oh my goodness.
Let's see here.
This is the Robbie Starbuck tweet, or at least there's several of them, and you can follow him.
I would encourage you to do that.
He says that over the past two weeks, he's exposed how the CEO of Tractor Supply has made woke policy and DEI a strategic priority for Tractor Supply, but now you get to hear him say it himself.
And this was the video we just showed you, so hats it to him.
Here he explains how important DEI is to him and credits his DEI push for a white employee helping a black customer as if that wouldn't have happened before DEI. I know it's ridiculous.
It's ridiculous.
Have you ever just talked to somebody who...
You just know they're full of it.
And you think to yourself, they cannot possibly believe their nonsense.
They can't possibly.
Do they have any ounce of self-reflection?
And here's this guy saying...
Yeah, you know, because of our diversity, equity, inclusion policies, we got a white employee to quit being racist and actually treat a black person like a human being during a snowstorm and actually help him out.
Yeah, he ignored all of it.
He had a lot of, you know, a lot of subconscious bias to overcome.
And it was in the middle of a snowstorm, right?
A lot of white canvassing the area.
I think that was in Kentucky.
A lot of white, a lot of...
And he had to overcome his own whiteness.
He had to overcome the whiteness he saw in the snow, which obviously the snow is racist.
You know, they actually overcame that somehow because of Tractor Supply, because of our forward-thinking, virtue-signaling, diversity, equity, inclusion policies.
We've ended racism.
Tractor Supply, we have ended single-handedly, let's see, Hal Lawton and Tractor Supply have single-handedly ended racism at our stores because of our commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion.
Let's see here.
What else do we have?
Interesting that Tractor Supply, their woke CEO, have both shut down comments under their posts.
So we have this really conspicuous announcement.
Hey, hey, we love veterans!
We're Tractor Supply!
Don't boycott us.
We love veterans.
We're giving you a million dollars, veterans.
And now they've shut down their...
Let's see.
No, that's not it.
Where did it go?
Yeah, can anyone...
Well, anyway, they shut down their comments.
I don't know where that tweet just went.
But, yeah, this is that other one, Robbie Starbuck.
And then here's this one.
Tractor's Polly's Woken is pushing DEI and Pride.
He says, I quit Target seven years ago.
This guy named Champion Citizen.
I quit Target seven years ago because of their wokeness.
Man, that's what so many people want.
They just want a company that is politically neutral because they're just sick of it, right?
I mean, why can't you just serve the country, let us buy your product or buy your service without having an agenda behind it, you know?
Now, I mean, I get the desire there.
I mean, I don't think I could check my politics at the door.
I mean, I made a game where it's clear I didn't check my politics at the door.
Left wing wheel on the red pill.
Hey, more on left wing wheel.
We're going to give away a game.
We're going to give away a left-wing wheel game.
More details on that later in the show today and tomorrow.
Because this is why I'm giving a game away.
I turned 40 on Saturday.
And I don't know.
I just figure it's my 40th birthday, so I should give a game away.
Maybe two.
We'll see.
Alright, so then we have the pink news.
Pink news.
Right-wingers are now raging at a farm supply store because they have LGBTQ plus staff initiatives.
You know, if this doesn't also show how just absolutely toxic...
You know, tractor supply is obviously unique.
It's something kind of adjacent culturally to Bud Light because a lot of conservatives used to like Bud Light.
And yet they just went too far.
And again, it's really an act of demoralization.
I know the CEOs may believe their own nonsense about how they're being virtuous and they're being moral by promoting immorality.
But, you know, BlackRock and all of these people that are pushing DEI or environmental social governance or whatever, they're really doing it to basically propagandize the American people to hate us.
I mean, they want to demoralize us.
They want us to feel like we are crazy.
They do it to gaslight us.
They want us to bow the knee.
They want us to bend the knee.
They want us to say, yes!
A man can become a woman if he wants to.
And I just have a feeling that the moment we do that, like if America tomorrow, if that's what we said, if we bended the knee and we said, yes, okay, I think as soon as they broke us, they would say, okay, a man can't really become a woman.
Get these people out of here.
Get these useful idiots out of here.
Let us order our society the way we want to, to treat all of you like livestock and make you the worker bees that we want you to be.
This is about breaking the American spirit and making slavery great again.
That's the goal here.
Here's another story.
Conservative company.
Shocking DEI agenda exposed.
Consider shopping elsewhere.
This is from Trending Politics.
So we've got a lot of stories out there.
We'll see.
Will the stock price continue to go?
I don't know.
This one's down again.
In the past week.
Now, this was...
When was this?
What date was this?
Because...
So this is yesterday.
It was down almost 9%.
It's down almost 8% over five days, according to what I pulled earlier today.
That's the current...
That's what I currently have.
And so, yeah, this is...
A story that we're going to watch and monitor, and it's just more fallout from this absolute, really just the steep moral decline that America is facing and what the corporations are doing to us.
Now, there's emails that have been produced from the Biden administration And their correspondence with an international transgender surgery group.
This is some different news here.
But I think it ties into all of this really, really well on how America is facing a steep moral decline.
It turns out, and the New York Times has this story, it turns out that this international trans rights group, or this trans surgery, it's allegedly a bunch of doctors or scientists, They wanted to set the parameters for when is it okay, what age is it okay for the puberty-blocking hormones to start, the mastectomies to start, the double mastectomies, the bottom surgeries.
What are the appropriate ages for that?
And they were the Biden administration under Admiral Levine.
Of course, you know, Admiral Levine is a man who thinks that he's a woman, right?
You know of who we speak.
They pushed back in the emails and they said we don't want any restrictions because conservative red states, Christian red states as I call them, this will hurt our argument.
We don't want you, this group of doctors, this group of scientists, to have any age restrictions or any limits whatsoever.
When is it appropriate for kids to go under the knife for these surgeries?
And so Michael Cassidy, who's the Christian hero who knocked down the Baphomet statue in the Iowa State House, says, evil, this is unalloyed evil.
When they say they're coming for our children, believe them.
This is a headline from the New York Times.
Biden officials pushed to remove age limits for trans surgery.
Documents show.
We go over to the New York Times because for some reason I refuse to pay for this rag.
And for some reason they're letting me view this story and I don't know why, but I'm going to view it.
Normally I get the paywall, but today I don't have the paywall.
So, you know, I don't know.
Does that mean I'm lucky or does that mean I'm really unlucky because I get to read the New York Times?
Biden officials pushed to remove age limits for trans surgery documents show newly released emails from an influential group issuing transgender medical guidelines.
So that's their job.
This influential group, it's their job to issue transgender guidelines, medical guidelines.
Apparently U.S. health officials lobbied to remove the age minimums because of political fallout.
And of course, there he is.
There's Admiral Rachel Levine, an assistant secretary at the Department of Health and Human Services.
Because he's a healthy boy, and you need to be healthy just like him.
This is unbelievable.
Health officials in the Biden administration pressed an international group of medical experts to remove age limits for adolescent surgeries from guidelines for transgender care.
Heh heh.
For minors, according to newly unsealed court documents, age minimums, officials feared, could fuel growing political opposition to such treatments.
Remember what I said, was it yesterday or the day before?
These people are on borrowed time.
That's why you have the New York Times, I'm sorry, that's why you have the Supreme Court The Supreme Court, they are now deciding in October, they're going to hear a case at the request of the Biden administration.
They're going to rule on, I think it's Tennessee's law banning transgender mutilation and child abuse in the state of Tennessee, you know, calling it health care, calling it...
They're going to rule on that.
They've decided to take the case up in October, so this time next year we're going to hear whether the Supreme Court is going to allow states to ban this genital mutilation, chemical castration, or whether or not they're going to give parents the right to abuse their children and call it medical care.
This is a huge decision that could be the next Roe versus Wade in terms of taking the argument away from the states and not letting us govern ourselves within our own sovereign borders.
And there's plenty of legislators across this nation that just don't, they simply don't have the political gumption at this point to reject the evil and If the Supreme Court says that parents can take their 13-year-old to get their breasts removed and call it health care, and they say that there's nothing we can do about it, they are literally...
Revealing that they are an illegitimate power, and they have no authority, because that is absolutely an abomination.
It's unbiblical, it's unchristian, and there's just no way that society can just stand by and allow that practice to continue to allow barbarism to happen like that to little kids whose brains are not even fully developed yet.
They don't even know what they want to be when they grow up, let alone they want to forfeit the right to be a mother.
Yeah, it's disgusting.
But the reason that they want the Supreme Court to do another Roe v.
Wade, or the equivalent of it, is because they're on borrowed time.
The borrowed time is...
The longer California and New York and all these states become...
Maine, or is it Maryland, become transgender sanctuary states, the more victims 5, 10, 15 years from now are going to say...
Why?
They're going to look at their mutilated bodies and they're going to say, why was this legal?
Why did my parents, why were they allowed to do this?
Why was a doctor allowed to do this to me?
There's already those people that exist today.
There's going to be scores of them 5, 10, 15 years from now.
And when that happens and the outrage grows...
The communists in this country don't want there to be any political will to change those laws in California or New York.
And they want to take that right away from southern Christian red states from protecting kids as well.
They want this ideology to keep going, but they see that it has, right now, it's going to end.
There's no way it doesn't end.
It's got to have...
They've got to come in with tyranny in order to sustain it for the next 50 years like they did Roe v.
Wade.
So they're on borrowed time because the victims are going to mount up too fast.
And so they want to go ahead and, to use the Karate Kid reference, they want to go ahead and Johnny sweep the legs and basically leapfrog over all of this and say, go ahead and put the law in place.
Because the same thing would have happened with abortion.
You understand that with Roe vs.
Wade, the same thing would have happened.
If they had never done Roe, the states were going to have these debates on what life is, and they basically put that debate off until the 90s.
They bought themselves time from 73 to 83.9.
They bought themselves time, but had they not done it, the debate would have raged in all 50 states.
There would have been different laws, and eventually there would have been people, but they created this false right to murder your child, and what did that do?
People dug out trenches, people dug out their positions, and And the rest is history.
You guys know what I'm saying is true.
So, for Rachel Levine here, back to this New York Times piece, to say, hey, look, these age minimums are going to fuel growing political opposition to such treatments.
Email excerpts from members of the World Professional Association for Transgender We're good to go.
Urged them to drop the proposed limits from the group's guidelines, and apparently she succeeded.
I'm sorry.
Forgive me.
He succeeded.
If and when teenagers should be allowed to undergo transgender treatments and surgeries has become a raging debate, blah, blah, blah, blah.
But anyway, there was even some people say, why can't we put the ages in there?
I mean, you can go read the story for yourself, I mean, if you want to.
The bottom line is, They're doing everything they can to pull out the stops on this issue.
They know what a powder keg it is, but they don't want a debate.
They don't want states to have that.
They want a top-down.
You will give parents the right to abuse your children.
You will allow us to brainwash and groom your kids in our public schools to go ahead and get the mastectomy at 13 years old.
As a matter of fact, that's actually...
Let me go ahead and...
I'm pretty sure here.
If we see here, 13 was...
No, was it not 13?
Let me find it here because I want you guys to see this.
14.
Here we go.
This is for the original draft guidelines.
The original draft guidelines released in late 2021 recommended lowering the age minimums to 14 for hormonal treatments, 15 for mastectomies, 15 years old to have your breasts removed.
16 for breast augmentation or facial surgeries and 17 for genital surgeries or hysterectomies.
So we're saying when you're 17 years old, they want to take a 17 year old and they want to give them a hysterectomy or genital surgeries, you know, cut your genitalia off, let them form some sort of colon fake or it's just disgusting.
So these guidelines by themselves are absolutely unacceptable in any way, shape, or form.
This would still be a hell for the kids of America if these guidelines were put in place.
However, they don't even want those guidelines.
And again, I know I keep connecting the abortion dots here, but after Roe vs.
Wade, what did we have?
We had legislators that accepted the tyranny, and over time, over the decades, as the bodies piled up, as the millions of kids piled up, and we were saying, well, we are murdering millions and millions of babies a year.
What did the pro-life movement do?
They started saying, okay, we've got to try to save as many kids as we can.
And I'm not saying that wasn't a noble effort.
It was.
But what did they start to do?
They started with numbers.
Just like these age requirements, they started saying, okay, what's a viable fetus?
What's a viable baby?
At 20 weeks, they can feel pain.
Okay, let's outlaw abortion at 20 weeks.
So this whole draft guideline system that they're trying to throw that out, they don't even want that.
It's because they know, again, they're up against the clock.
And this is for later.
This comes later.
Let's make it legal for all minors everywhere.
If you're a minor and you want to have the surgeries, there's no limits to what a doctor can do to you.
And then later, over the next 50 years, the conservatives who will try to really conserve things hard, the states will come along and they'll start challenging the new Supreme Court ruling, whatever it is, if it doesn't go our way, and they'll say, well, we think 10 years old is too young.
You've got to be older than 10.
You've got to be older than 10 to make this decision.
And then it'll be 11, it'll be 12, and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
And in the meantime...
There'll be, you know, there'll be pro-child groups in Christian red states that'll make a ton of money fundraising on how we can end child genital mutilation.
And I'm telling you, we can't even let it get that far.
We have to say, no, this far, no further.

Before we go any further, I want to tell you about the Bearded Sergeant Coffee Company.
The Bearded Sergeant Coffee Company is a veteran-owned and operated coffee company that imports coffee beans from around the world.
Roast them back home here in the United States.
They also donate a portion of the profits of every bag sold to Homes for Our Troops.
Homes for Our Troops is a publicly funded non-profit organization.
That builds and donates specially adapted custom homes nationwide for severely injured post-9-11 veterans to enable them to rebuild their lives.
At the Bearded Sergeant Coffee Company, they're committed to providing high-quality coffee beans while making a difference in the lives of other people.
Costa Rican coffee beans have a bright, pleasant acidity and flavor notes of citrus and tropical fruits.
And with the higher caffeine content, this makes for the perfect cup of coffee.

Welcome back to the Millstone Report.
So, I have this right here.
And this is normally when I tell you about Left Wing Will and the Red Pill.
The game that laughs at the left's expense.
I'm going to give some of these away.
Now, how am I going to do that?
Well, here's the deal.
I am going to give this away.
So I'm turning 40 on Saturday, and I want to...
I don't know.
Somebody said, hey, for your 40th birthday, you should give some left-wing wheel games away.
So I said, okay, that sounds like a good idea.
So I tweeted this earlier today.
It just says, left-wing wheel giveaway.
Okay?
Do you still say tweet?
I don't even know at this point.
Okay.
So, here's what I need you to do.
I want you to just comment on...
Go find this thread.
First of all, you have to follow me, right?
So, you comment on the thread.
You follow me at RealPaulHarrell.
That's at RealPaulHarrell.
And then comment on the thread.
I mean, you say whatever you want.
I don't know.
Say left and will.
Say, I want to enter.
I don't know.
I'm just going to basically put names into a drawing.
And I'll give away, I don't know, let's say...
This depends on how many, but let's say I'll give away five games.
I'll draw five names and we'll mail you this for you.
We won't have to pay shipping.
We'll have to pay anything.
That one will actually cost me money.
And I will send you this game, Left Wing Will and the Red Pill.
So you've got to go, and we'll tell you about it again tomorrow.
This particular post, you've got to follow me, comment.
I'll take your name, we'll put it into a drawing, and then we'll give away some games.
How does that sound?
That sound good?
Okay, good.
Or you can buy it if you want to go ahead and buy it and you want to avoid the whole contest thing.
You can go to leftwingwill.com and you use my name, Paul.
And that saves you, again, 15%.
So, tell me what you think about that.
Alright, we've got a great rest of the show to get to here.
We were just talking about this terrible New York Times headline about they're so committed that they don't want any limits on trans surgery because...
We're being governed by satanic monsters, basically.
We also have this story from Julie Kelly.
Special Counsel Jack Smith has just admitted that the FBI added...
Remember that Mar-a-Lago raid?
Remember how everybody was so upset about it?
That Jack Smith just admitted that the FBI added the cover sheets.
So I'm talking about a photo that looks like this.
You guys remember this photo?
Jack Smith is now admitting, this is the special prosecutor, you know, who's part of weaponizing government against President in Exile Donald Trump.
Jack Smith admits that when they raided the Mar-a-Lago residence of President in Exile Donald Trump, they had these top-secret cover letters that they placed over the documents to give the theatrical effect, right?
And that just shows this was all staged, this was all fake, this was all trying to make Donald Trump look Look worse than he actually was.
This is them, literally, this is them engaging in theater.
This is them tainting jury pools, by the way.
That's what this is.
This is them tainting jury pools against the president-in-exile Donald Trump.
So that's a fascinating development in this story.
And of course, everybody's getting geared up.
I guess that's how you would say it.
They're getting geared up for a debate.
Tomorrow night, CNN is essentially going to rig the debate against Donald Trump.
I mean, it'll be interesting to see what happens.
I don't know.
Excuse me.
Who knows what exactly will happen, but we all know that the left, they're going to gaslight us.
They're going to try to claim that Donald Trump is a conspiracy theorist and not to listen to anything he says.
And then, of course, Donald Trump is moderated on a lot of his positions anyway.
So that'll be interesting.
I'm sure there'll be some moments where Donald Trump says things that are just not true either.
But we'll see.
I mean, in the wake of the Biden administration giving Julian Assange this sweetheart deal...
Well, I mean, he's having to delete.
I think part of the plea agreement is he has to delete all confidence or all classified information that he received.
So the DNC emails are now gone off of the WikiLeaks servers, by the way.
They're gone.
Now, plenty of people have the DNC emails because they've been out there for years.
But people are wondering, what's Julian Assange's game here?
Is Julian Assange going to now somehow come out and say things negatively against Trump?
Why would they do this?
I would tell you that if Donald Trump...
Basically, from what I can tell, this...
This plea agreement with Julian Assange, now that it's been about 48 hours, is essentially a non-disclosure agreement.
and if Donald Trump were to come out and pardon Julian Assange and even say he's going to pardon him, then it would negate the plea agreement, wouldn't it?
Just go ahead and pardon him, and then it would negate any sort of NDA.
I don't know, because there were rumors that Donald Trump was going to go ahead and pardon Julian Assange, or going to say he was going to pardon him, and that's why Biden did what he did, because they're trying to take that out of Donald Trump's sales.
He could still announce he's going to pardon him and then say he won't even need the plea agreement, and he'll be able to publish whatever he wants to publish. - Oh gosh.
I don't know if Julian Assange will even come up.
Who knows?
We'll have to wait and see.
Trump has got to do something to get out of the...
I mean, it was his administration that charged him.
And whether that was because Mike Pompeo was plotting to kill him when he was in the Ecuadorian embassy or not, who knows?
Obviously, we know that Trump, as the commander-in-chief in his first term, wasn't really the commander-in-chief.
There was a lot of people underneath him that were just not obeying anything the guy said.
And then, of course, there were things that he did...
Like Operation Warp Speed that he still refuses to take responsibility for.
But anyway, AI is a dangerous tool, but AI is also kind of funny.
So Simon Atiba says that this AI preview, again, this is not real, but it may be a preview of what the debate may be like tomorrow night.
Hello and welcome to the first 2024 presidential debate hosted by CNN. I am Jake Tapper and somewhere around here is my colleague Dana Bash.
I'd like to set the ground rules to this debate.
First off, Biden is allowed to speak whenever he wishes.
We will have commercial breaks whenever Biden feels the urge so that his...
Needs can be taken care of.
This may or may not include naps, energy boosts, or a snack such as ice cream.
On the other hand, Trump is not allowed to speak unless spoken to.
And if he interrupts Joe speaking, we're automatically going to deduct 10 points from Trump and Doerr.
As the hall moderator of this debate, I can call it off at any moment and declare it a complete victory for Biden.
Where did Trump go?
He was just here.
Look at this!
Oh, no truck!
Oh, my God!
The hostile...
All right, well, so the 2024 debate spectacle election begins this week.
So we'll continue to monitor that the best we can.
Did you guys hear that the Texas Rangers are frustrating Major League Baseball because they refuse to have a pride night?
We talk a lot about the negativity about it all.
This is a good thing.
We have to report this.
This is good.
Finally, Megan Basham saying the Texas Rangers are frustrating LGBTQ plus advocates as the only MLB team without a Pride Night.
Good for the Texas Rangers baseball.
It makes me want to be a Texas Rangers fan.
It makes me want to care about baseball again.
I haven't cared about baseball really since the steroid era with Mark McGuire and Sammy Sosa.
I don't know if you guys remember that, but that was right as I was growing up.
And that was, thinking back, it was hilarious when people say, no, I'm not on steroids.
These guys aren't on steroids.
They're just really, really good.
Some people now even think, and I don't even care anymore, some people think they need to bring steroids back to baseball because it made it so much fun to watch and just let everybody do whatever substances they want to do.
Do I sound too much like Ron Paul right now?
The second you allow the government to tell you what you can put in your body, someday you won't even be able to put a donut inside your body.
He's certainly right about that when it comes to the...
The propensity of totalitarians to want death panels and stuff like that.
Oh no, you've had too much sodium in the week.
You can't have any bacon because health care is the right and we are responsible for your health care.
Therefore, the government can tell you what to eat, what to put in your body and what not to put in your body.
Anyway, I am sympathetic to those arguments for sure.
What else do we have?
Oh yeah, speaking of Megan Basham, this is incredible.
On Monday, we told you about this tweet that on April 29th, the Biden administration quietly enacted an HHS rule that designates Christians unfit to be foster parents, and it requires supporting any foster child in their gender identity in the same-sex attraction.
This rule will be devastating to vulnerable kids.
This was about—this is true.
They don't want Christians, outspoken Christians, to be foster parents, Christians that believe what the Bible says.
They don't want biblical Christians— To be foster parents, right?
So it's fundamentally anti-Christian, and that's the news.
But then she gets community noted, and it says the poster misrepresents their homophobia as a Christian value.
And then they claim that Christians in the USA, there are Christians that don't promote homophobia, such as Presbyterians.
By the way, there are Presbyterians that would also be considered homophobic, though.
Yeah.
Many Quakers, Lutherans.
There are also, there are Lutherans who are woke.
There are Presbyterians who are woke, but there are other Presbyterians who are not woke.
There are Lutherans who are not woke.
Many Christian churches.
Well, let's show you one of those Christian churches, shall we?
And let's go through.
Here we go.
Hat tip to protestia.
Woke impastor insists that you won't find the answer to Jesus' question, who do you say I am?
Let's talk about some of these gay-affirming pastors, shall we?
And these real Christians, according to this community note on X, the real Christians who aren't homophobic.
What does she say about Jesus?
Jesus said to Peter, Who do you say that I am?
I know there are a lot of other people talking about who I am, but who do you say that I am?
Peter said you are the Messiah.
It was downright dangerous for him to say it.
Jesus said, Peter, you did not get that answer from teachers or books.
You got that from your experience with God.
That means the whole of Christianity needs to turn around a minute.
We have looked to this book to tell us the answer to that question, who do you say I am?
And if I hear this scripture right, it says, nope, you won't find that in here.
Well, that's interestingly consistent.
That's very consistent to what this community note said about Megan Basham's tweet.
It really comes down to the Bible, doesn't it?
Those Christians that believe what the Bible says are considered homophobic.
Those Christians that don't care what the Bible says are considered to be real Christians, according to that tweet.
Of course, this is another reason.
Like, I already didn't believe in women pastors.
You don't have to convince me.
Here is yet another example of why women should not teach the Bible over men.
I have any authority at all over men and shouldn't have any official church office at all.
Husband of one wife is what the Bible says, but I'm just not going to leave it there.
Millstone for this and pastor for sure, right?
A millstone because she's teaching little kids that the Bible, it's all about your experience, right?
All about you.
This is from the book of, which one is this?
Matthew or Mark?
Hang on one second.
I want to get the reference right.
So this is Matthew 16, verses 13.
We're going to read it.
So now when Jesus came into the district of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, who do people say the Son of Man is?
And they said, well, hang on, let me throw this up here.
You guys don't have it.
I said, who do they say the Son of Man is?
And said, some say that you're John the Baptist, others say that you're Elijah, and others Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.
And he said to them, but who do you say that I am?
And Simon Peter replied, you are the Christ, the Son of the living God.
And Jesus answered him and said, blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood—I didn't say anything about books— Huh.
She said, books, the prophets.
No.
Jesus says, for flesh and blood.
Now, this is the English Standard Version translation, which is one I like to use.
For flesh and blood is not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.
So, Jesus is saying that in this particular instance, when we didn't, the mystery of the gospel had not, the full mystery of the gospel had not yet been revealed to the disciples.
And who Jesus Christ really was.
He's saying that God in heaven revealed this to Peter about who Jesus really was.
He says, flesh and blood, meaning you didn't do it.
It's the complete opposite of what this impastrix just said.
It's about your experience.
We don't need the Bible to tell us who Jesus is.
It's about you.
It's about you, and to them, that's what it is.
It's about worshiping themselves and telling themselves that they're actually worshiping God.
It says, My Father who is in heaven revealed this to you, and I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
Then he strictly charged the disciples to tell no one that he was Christ.
And again, so her fundamental claim here that we can't know who Jesus is when Peter knew that he was the Messiah and the Christ, and then he says, and the Scripture says that, yes, he was God.
He was divine.
He was the Son of Man.
Again, already believe women shouldn't be pastors.
You didn't have to sell me on it.
Millstone for that and pastrics.
