U.S. You're listening to the Liberty News Radio Network, and this is the Political Cesspool.
The Political Cesspool, known across the South and worldwide as the South's foremost populist conservative radio program.
And here to guide you through the murky waters of the Political Cesspool is your host, James Edwards.
All right, we actually have a topic that I want to spend a little time developing this hour.
So I'll work through this other one very quickly.
And then we'll spend the bulk of the third hour talking about something that I think is pretty important.
And it's a recurring topic on this show.
We'll get to it.
Just give you a minute.
By the way, first of all, welcome back to the Political Cesspool.
James Edwards, Keith Alexander.
Live tonight, this Saturday, March 18th.
I can't believe it's March.
The day after St. Patrick's Day.
That's right.
That is the day after St. Patrick's Day.
And Eddie's out tonight.
He's in Alabama, so he'll be back next week.
I'm blowing in the creek.
Don't rock.
Yeah, no telling what he's doing in Alabama.
We don't even want to know.
We don't want to know.
He's hunting or something.
But.
He's down in the boondocks, as Billy Joe Royal would say.
Down in the boondocks.
People put him down because that's the side of town he was born in.
Okay, here we go.
You'll remember a couple of years ago, for no really apparent reason, the political cesspool was denounced on the official record of the United States Congress.
Now, it's one thing to be denounced by a congressman, but when you're denounced in a hearing on the official record, well, we're pretty proud about that.
And really, you know, everything they do backfires on them.
They think they're hurting us.
They're helping us.
Well, the gentleman, if we'll call him that, the gentleman who made a point to alert the who is it, the stenographer, the reporter there who puts it all down.
He made a point to make sure that this was introduced on the record, that he was denouncing the political cesspool and that it was reprehensible.
Well, he's a black guy named Hakeem Jeffries, a Democrat from New York.
His name is reprehensible.
Hakeem Jeffries.
Thank you, Keith.
He is one of, actually, he was one of three that denounced us on the record.
It was, and I'm not trying to be offensive here.
I guess people say that comes naturally.
We were denounced on the official record by two blacks and one Jew.
Okay, that's just what it was.
And but Hakeem Jeffries.
I wouldn't have it any other way.
Hakeem Jeffries was the one who started it.
And so we were denounced by Hakeem Jeffries.
Well, Hakeem Jeffries is back in the news this week because he was rapping lyrics from a dead rapper named Notorious B.I.G. Notorious Big.
450-pound specimen, by the way.
You need to see a picture of this guy.
You need a wide-angle lens.
Okay, so, and Hakeem Jeffrey, this is the headline.
Hakeem Jeffries rapped notorious big lyrics on the house floor.
So this is where we're at, Keith.
But listen to this.
This is how the media, this is how the media is reporting this.
It was a fitting tribute to the late rapper on the 20th anniversary of his desk.
So here you have this clown, Hakeem Jeffries, rapping on the house floor to honor a dead rapper who died 20 years ago.
You know, if we're going to get denounced by somebody, let it be somebody like that.
Gosh, you know, can you imagine George Washington, Thomas Jefferson rolling in their graves that somebody is carrying on like with this type of tomfoolery in the hallowed halls of the Capitol building in Washington, D.C.
This is woe is the day when good is evil and evil is good.
So here are good people being denounced by their so-called representatives.
And aren't these people supposed to be our servants?
Aren't they supposed to lie to us and kiss our backsides?
But they're out there calling us, calling us.
They're putting on a minstrel show in the Capitol.
Eddie's own congressman denounced him.
I mean, that's one thing.
I mean, that's one of Eddie's constituents.
Or rather, Eddie is his constituent.
And anyway, I put Eddie down as doubtful for a contribution this next year.
Or a vote.
But we love this stuff.
As we always say, you're not catching flag unless you're right over the target.
So when we're denounced by Congress one day in the Washington Post again this week.
Shows we're doing something right.
Washington Post called us racist, white supremacists, white nationalist.
Now, we've had a long spat with the Washington Post.
See, what you're probably wondering, now they quoted me in the Washington Post this week.
I did not relax my position on no interviews.
Now, every now and then I will give an interview, but the rule is no interviews to anyone at any time unless it's live radio or TV.
So you're probably wondering how the Washington Post get that quote.
Well, they did like they do most times.
They transcribed the show or lift quotes off my Twitter and put it into their articles because we won't talk to them.
But I want to be denounced, Keith.
I know you do too, by Congress, by the Washington Post.
We're the good guys, they're the bad guys, and lying about us ain't going to make it so.
And the fact that we're on their radar screen shows that we're doing an effective job of trying to get the message out that, you know, we're doing the job that Americans refuse to do.
Tell the truth.
You know, and we can't find an immigrant group to do it either.
So we've answered the call ourselves.
But, you know, the fact that these execrable characters in the left find it necessary to point us out and comment about what we say means we're hitting the target.
We're on the bullseye.
Like you said, you don't catch flack unless you're over the target.
We're catching plenty of flack.
So we are undoubtedly over the target.
And we've even got our own bombardier.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
Well, anyway, folks, this is another day.
It's another day here in the political sector.
Another day in other diatribes.
Yeah.
Because it's certainly at another dollar.
But Keith, you mentioned before Trump may be listening, or not Trump, perhaps necessarily, but somebody in his campaign.
That is not fantastic or fanciful at all.
I mean, here we are in the Washington Post.
You know, the Washington Insiders read the Washington Post.
And then, of course, last year we were in the news with Trump every week.
Donald Trump Jr. had to back off.
We were too hot for Trump even.
Donald Trump Jr. had to back off from us.
His campaign, Hope Hicks, had to denounce us on a monthly basis to make sure that we didn't sting him too bad.
So, hey, that's okay because we back Trump on the issues, not because he comes over and gives us hugs or whatever.
But it's not unrealistic at all to assume that the administration keeps tabs on what we're doing and saying because we're always in the mix with them in these articles and in this new coverage, really from the day he announced all the way through, well, here again this week with his visit to Nashville.
They tied us into him for reasons either real or imagined.
But it's no doubt at all that this show's having an impact and people are listening and paying attention.
And that goes all the way up to the top.
Absolutely.
That's what it is.
I just hope they're listening to Keith.
Well, look, now let's move on to the next item on our agenda.
All right, well, I was trying to stretch that to the last of this segment because we only have seconds remaining in this segment.
And the next thing we're going to unpack for you, I think you're going to enjoy.
I hope you enjoyed this because it's personal to me and it's something that I enjoy.
I originally intended for Eddie and I to cover this story.
And I'll tell you why when we come back on the flip side.
But Keith and I will do the best we can.
And I hope you'll enjoy it.
It's interesting.
And it's good news, which is also rare.
Well, maybe not so much rare.
We've had a lot of good news on this show in the last couple of years, especially.
But we'll get into this in just a moment.
Last segment.
Not even Scoop's going to call in tonight.
Keith and I were left high and dry.
I got a call from Eddie at 5 o'clock saying he wasn't going to be able.
That was an hour before the show.
Eddie said he's not going to be able to make it in tonight.
He couldn't get back from Alabama in time.
Scoop called in about 15 minutes before the show started and said he wasn't going to be able to make it tonight.
He got tied up.
So it's old, reliable.
Keith is here with me for the full three-hour stretch this evening.
And we're going to do our damnest here in these last few seconds.
But stay tuned.
I got something on.
We fought.
We learned.
We struggled.
We won.
Despite Obama's best efforts, the newspaper of the human resistance survives.
We have lived only to face a new nightmare.
The war against the machines.
Read about our struggle in The Sovereign, newspaper of the resistance.
The Sovereign is a 24-page monthly tabloid newspaper about the war between man and machines.
We've tried reason.
We've tried legislation.
We've tried every peaceful means imaginable.
And all it's gotten us is shut out.
So now we fight the machines.
Order online today at thesovenews.com or find the sovereign at select newsstands.
Remember to read the sovereign, newspaper of the resistance.
The human resistance's battle against the machines will be everlasting.
This is mercy.
It was never our destiny to stop the age of Obama.
It was merely to survive it.
Together.
Together.
I worry about my parents because I think smoking is going to harm them.
I mean, it harms my mom.
She coughs all the time.
I'm just like, mom, it's because of your smoking.
But she's like, well, see, this is what you should look at.
See me, I smoking.
Look at this.
I'm just like, yeah, mom, why don't you just try to quit?
Sometimes, teenagers do know what they're talking about.
I've tried.
I've brought them the little pamphlets that we get at school about not smoking.
And I've like tossed it in front of her.
I'm like, mom, read this.
We even got this thing from the American Cancer Society.
It was this thing that you send around about not smoking because my mom sends those things out.
And she's like, it's in here folding them off.
And I was like, Mom, are you really going to send those out?
And she's like, well, yeah.
And I was like, isn't that a slight bit hypocritical?
She says, no, I'm going to send them out.
I was like, well, don't you see something?
These people are trying so hard to get people not to smoke.
She was just like, well, I know it's wrong and I know it's going to harm me, but it hasn't harmed me yet.
Smoking.
If you think you're old enough to start, you're smart enough to stop.

And now back to tonight's show.
Okay, folks, so here's what we were setting the stage for, building the anticipation for.
You may remember last week, Keith brought in some good news from his church.
So we actually found a Protestant, well, really of any denomination, the Catholics are worse than the Protestants.
We actually found a church, period, a Christian church, that is having a mission to Europe, an evangelical mission, a missionary trip to Europe.
To re-evangelize Europe, it says.
And this is called the Croatia Project.
And yes, as Keith mentioned, they are carrying on the vision to re-evangelize Europe.
Now, that is from what kind of a church?
Re-evangelizing Europe.
That's their mission.
This one is going to Croatia.
This is a Reformed Episcopal Church, right, Keith?
In other words, it's not the mainline Episcopal church.
It is a breakoff denomination that broke away because the main Episcopal Church was too liberal for their tastes.
And we can see now there is substance to their breaking away.
They obviously feel that Europe requires evangelizing.
And if you are truly trying to spread the gospel rather than just do social work in the guise of evangelizing, then Europe would be the perfect place to go to because that's where church membership is at historic lows right now.
And we've talked about this time and time again.
And we even talked about this last week.
So people are probably wondering why we're bringing it back up.
Well, after Keith showed me that last Saturday night, I got this in the mail.
Now, this is from the Tennessee Baptist Mission Board.
The Tennessee Baptist Mission Bishop.
It's from the Southern Baptist Vatican in Nashville.
That's right.
The Southern Baptist Convention is, of course, actually located in Nashville, Tennessee.
And the Tennessee Baptist Mission Board is an arm of the Southern Baptist Convention.
Well, they're doing their mission outreach too.
And so I've got this nice glossy folder encouraging me to give to the Missions Project.
And they've got one, two, three, four, five, six, six pictures on the outer cover of this mailer that will show you the people that they are attempting to evangelize to.
Keith, I'm going to give you this.
Keith has not seen this yet.
So I'm handing this to Keith now live on the radio.
He's going to look at this, having not seen it before, and he's going to tell you, first of all, what he doesn't see.
So we've got six pictures once again.
Keith, what don't you see in those six pictures?
I don't see a white person of European heritage.
Okay.
Now, once again, this is a mailer that was sent to me asking me to contribute to the Tennessee Baptist Mission Fund.
He doesn't see in the six people that are pictured here, the people who would be receiving the benevolence, what don't you see as a white person?
What do you see?
I see black people.
I see somebody from the subcontinent of India.
I see two Hispanics.
I now see another black person.
And I have, it looks like an American Indian.
Okay, there you go.
Now, I am all for the Great Commission.
I do believe absolutely we should spread the gospel of Jesus Christ to all nations.
That includes everybody that Keith just mentioned.
I have no problem with that at all.
I'm glad these people are being reached or attempted to be reached.
The problem I have is they are exclusively the ones being reached.
If you go look at the mission trips being put on by the Southern Baptist Convention.
90% of them are to Haiti.
I don't know if it's quite 90 to Haiti, but Haiti is certainly disproportionately represented.
You haven't been on a mission trip if you're a Southern Baptist and you haven't been to Haiti.
Well, Haiti is like the Italian Riviera.
Haiti's a big one.
Sub-Saharan Africa big.
South America big.
Europe, not at all.
I don't know if they have one.
Now, they may have one.
I don't know if they have one.
On the other hand, Russell Moore, the notorious Russell Moore of the Southern Baptist Convention, the white-hating Russell Moore will tell you and never tires of telling us that the real action in Christianity nowadays, the people that are really, you know, advancing the ball in terms of Christianity are non-whites.
That's right.
If that's the case, Mr. Moore, why aren't you interested in bringing the gospel to white people?
You apparently have decided that the Great Commission doesn't apply to white people.
You don't want them to be Christians.
You don't want to convert them any more than you want white people to be in your denomination.
You covet a flock that God hasn't given you.
And it's obvious also that they aren't really interested in evangelizing.
What they're interested in doing is doing social work.
Virtue signaling.
Virtue signaling and basically providing food and shelter to non-white people.
And I'm sure that that's the primary mission.
Actually spreading the gospel and making converts is secondary or tertiary because, you know, this is what we just heard from the great guru himself, Russell Moore, that these people don't need us to tell them about Christianity because they have plenty.
They should be telling us.
They're not a bit of evangelicalism.
Well, here's another thing.
Obviously, these people see race.
If they didn't see race, is it just by luck that they're only ministering to these people?
Again, I'm glad these people are receiving some ministering, but Europe, Christendom, should be minister to as well.
If they just stood in a room at the Southern Baptist Convention headquarters and put a map of the world on a wall and threw darts at it and sent their mission trips to wherever the darts landed, we'd be better off than this.
They obviously see race because there's just no way in the world everybody that they go to minister to happens to be non-white unless they are selectively choosing to minister to only these people.
Well, James visits from time to time Bellevue Baptist.
And Bellevue Baptist is one, the largest Southern Baptist church in the world.
And two, its head pastor, Steve Gaines, is now the Southern Baptist Pope.
He's the president of the Southern Baptist Convention, which is the equivalent of being the Pope of the Southern Baptists.
And he's in the Southern Baptist Vatican, which is the denominational headquarters in Nashville, where Russell Moore is like one of the cardinals.
He's one of the College of Cardinals of the Southern Baptist Vatican there in Nashville.
And basically, the silence is deafening, despite the fact that there was an article written recently that James brought to my attention.
Was it the Washington Post again?
Yes, we're going to actually get to that.
I want to get to it right now, Keith, but once again, we're coming up on a hard break.
We've set the stage here with a lot of gloom and doom.
There's actually good news.
Good news out of the Southern Baptist Convention.
The grassroots people, again, the same type of people that elected Donald Trump president within the Southern Baptist Convention, have not been asleep at the switch.
They know that they have termites in the house.
They have, you know, rats in the basement.
And they're going to do their best to straighten that out.
And we'll give you the details on that after these words from our sponsors.
Well, but before we go to that break, and Keith is exactly right, that's exactly what we're going to do after we come back from this break.
I would like to point this out, though.
In this brochure that I received, it mentions that Tennessee Baptist churches, only Southern Baptist churches in Tennessee are being counted here, gave $35 million.
Now, that's just for the outreach to the third world.
That is not their total tithe.
Their tithes would have been in the billions, probably.
This is nothing less and nothing more than a wealth transfer from white people to non-white people.
Being done ostensibly to evangelize, but then we're apparently evangelizing the people that highly placed people in the Southern Baptist Convention say don't need to be evangelized because they're better Christians than the people that actually are making these contributions.
$35 million just for the outreach missions program.
That's not counting salaries and general tithes and church budgets.
That's just for the outreach.
Well, and here's going on.
We get a $100 contribution in the mail and we do hand spring studio.
But there is good news at the SBC.
We'll tell you right after this.
Pursuing Liberty, using the Constitution as our guide.
You're listening to Liberty News Radio.
With news this hour from LibertyNewsDaily.com, I'm William Grigg.
Last fall, privacy rights activist Phil Mosick and his Center for Open Policing filed a lawsuit against the city of Tacoma after it had refused to provide an unredacted version of its Stingray non-disclosure agreement with the FBI.
Stingray is a warrantless police surveillance system that uses cell tower emulators to identify, locate, and track cell phones.
The FBI provides Stingray technology to local police agencies, which are required to sign detailed non-disclosure agreements forbidding police to talk about how they are operated and to drop criminal charges when necessary in order to prevent disclosure of the surveillance methods in court.
The documents Mosek received through his public records request had been redacted to the point of being unreadable.
According to city officials, the redactions were imposed at the urging of the FBI.
The Tacoma News Tribune reports that Pierce County Superior Court Judge Frank Cuthbertson ordered the city to pay a $50,000 fine and legal fees for this violation of the Washington State Public Records Act.
The judge said that this was a paradigm case in which the city favored its interest in maintaining good relations with the FBI at the expense of the public's right to open government under the Public Records Act, stated attorney Dave Weedby, who represented the Center for Open Policing.

The Occidental Quarterly fills a unique niche in bringing together scholarly articles on a wide range of topics that are mired in political correctness elsewhere.
It is edited by Professor Kevin McDonald, who's no stranger to listeners of the political cesspool.
There are quite a few reasons for the precarious state of our civilization and our people, but one of the main ones is that we have lost the intellectual and moral high ground to a cultural elite that is hostile to our people and our culture.
Those of us who are politically aware must understand that the elites dominating culture and the political process in the West are intellectually and morally bankrupt.

Okay, so we've told you the bad news.
We've told you really an ongoing problem that a lot of these Protestant denominations have had.
Southern Baptists not excluded from that list.
And I'll tell you this, listen, you know how proud we are of our racial and cultural heritage here on the Political Cesspool, but we are equally, if not more so, proud of our spiritual heritage.
And for me, that is in the Southern Baptist Church.
I was born and raised as a Southern Baptist, still am.
Now, that's not to say that certainly we won't take issue with the leadership of the church, but I have so many great memories.
We talk about this from time to time.
I have so many great memories growing up in a very small southern Southern Baptist church and going there with my grandparents and my parents and my brother.
I mean, we were in church every Sunday.
A doctrinally sound Southern Baptist Church.
Well, I mean, listen, it didn't get into politics, really, but it certainly didn't get into politics in the wrong way either, which is really what we've gotten into now with you're not really a Christian unless you don't vote for Trump and hate yourself and racism is a sin and all of this stuff.
Well, the good news is this.
And this is really some of the best news I've heard in a long, long time.
The Washington Post reported this.
And of course they would because Russell Moore, who is basically the face of the liberal statist policies of the Southern Baptist Convention, is facing some pressure from the people in the pews.
Concern is mounting.
The Washington Post writes among evangelicals that Russell Moore, president of the Southern Baptist Convention's policy arm, could lose his job following months of backlash over his critiques of President Trump and religious leaders who publicly supported the Republican candidate.
Any such move could be explosive for the nation's largest Protestant denomination, which has been divided over politics, theology, and perhaps most darkly, race.
We're not to worry about Russell Moore because if he gets canned by the Southern Baptist, George Soros will pick up the slack.
In fact, he's already cashing a check from Soros.
Well, what we do know is that Soros is funding some sort of a pro-amnesty immigration roundtable that Moore sets on.
That's supposedly a Christian conglomerate.
That great Christian, George Soros.
Yeah, that's right, exactly.
The Washington Post continues, more than 100 Southern Baptist churches have threatened to cut off financial support of the SPC's umbrella fund.
So said Frank Page, president of the executive committee.
The committee is studying whether the churches are acting out of displeasure with Moore because it has received more threats to funding over him than any other personality issue in recent history.
That's interesting.
Some say the debate is less about Moore's politics than it is about Moore, who some say is arrogant and out of touch with many rank-and-file Southern Baptists, particularly, and this is important, in rural churches.
And that is 100% true.
100% true.
Russell Moore no more speaks for Southern Baptists in rural, real Southern Baptist churches than Barack Obama or the Constitution.
And that's not an accident.
It's not just a personality class.
He absolutely despises Southern Baptists with a rural outlook, people that have a traditional outlook.
People that fly a Confederate flag or even vote for President Trump.
Well, look, these are the people that think that they're going to lose their salvation if they don't tithe.
They all tithe.
I mean, 10% goes to the Southern Baptist Vatican.
And then, in addition to that, they give the so-called love offerings for mission trips.
And, of course, these are mission trips with no mission.
At least not the mission of evangelizing people.
In fact, the people that they're evangelizing are better Christians than these poor suckers that are shelling out tithes and offerings to the Southern Baptist Vatican.
What they are doing, these people, what's happening is that they're just giving a wealth transfer to non-white people because they're white.
It's like the tax that the Muslims impose on Christians and Jews living in Muslim countries for the privilege of practicing their religion.
This is nothing but social work.
This is money being given to people not to spread the gospel, but to spread the wealth.
And that's it in a nutshell.
Well, presumably they do evangelize.
Surely.
At least I hope they do when they're going to take the trouble to go on these trips.
At least they could do that.
Well, these people must be just patronizing because they've already heard it from no less an authority than Russell Moore that they're better Christians than these poor white Christians at the new hotbed of evangelism in the third world, as Moore puts it, they could evangelize to themselves.
Why don't we go revangelize them?
Well, they could be evangelizing us.
But of course, that might cost money, so they're not going to do that.
All right.
So anyway, back to Moore.
The Washington Post states that 100 churches have withheld funding.
There shouldn't be 100 churches that are giving funding to Moore's outfit.
There's 46,000 churches in the Southern Baptist Convention.
Only 100 have withheld funds.
There shouldn't be 100 that are giving funds to any outfit with Moore at the head.
But here's the thing.
They ought to be giving money to the National Right to Lie, no, excuse me, the National Abortion Rights Group or something, or Planned Parenthood.
If they want to give it to somebody that's going to oppose them and their outlook, yes, they could give it to one of those.
It would be just as effective.
Now, it's about time, though.
It's about time that these churches, even if it's only 100 now, it's enough to cause a stir.
There should be more.
At least they are doing it.
They should have done it a long time ago because this problem with Moore is nothing new.
And yes, it is personal with Moore.
Of course, it's personal with Moore.
The Donald Trump Jr. story broke last year and it was national news.
Russell Moore piled on.
So we've been denying.
In fact, Russell Moore personally singled out James and tried to get his pastor to excommunicate him, I guess, is, again, using that Vatican analogy of, you know, the Southern Baptist Vatican was moving under Cardinal Russell Moore to get James excommunicated from the church.
What is a fact is that Russell Moore called me a white supremacist.
That's a fact.
Russell Moore called me a white supremacist, and someone, one of Russell Moore's proxies, did make that call.
Now, the only person in the Southern Baptist conventions whose opinion I care about is my pastor, a man that I've known since before I was born.
Okay, so that, you know, all of this other stuff.
But yeah, so here we've been denounced by our own congressmen, by our representatives in government.
And here, and at least in the Southern Baptist Convention, we've been called a white supremacist by the guy that's the media head of the supremacist.
Not only that, they were calling for your excommunication, James.
Let's just be honest about it.
I didn't say that they didn't, but what I said was we don't know if the call came directly from Moore.
It was one of his underlings.
But anyway, he probably had something.
You're parsing things.
This guy is, you know, it's like he's up here.
He's not actually putting the highest.
Is that a sin, though?
Bearing false witness.
Now, this is the guy.
This is the guy that is the media.
When the Southern Baptists are quoted in the press or what the Southern Baptist position is on any issue, they go to Moore.
Moore is the media face of the Southern Baptist Convention.
Is that a sin to bear false witness?
Is that a sin for Moore to say that a member of a Southern Baptist church is a white supremacist when in fact, obviously he's not.
Now, does that seem like the kind of guy you'd want in a leadership position at your church?
A guy that will throw his own members under the bus to the press?
And then that's another thing.
He's like the Borgia popes.
I'd rather have Rodrigo Borgia or Ceteray Borgia sitting on the throne than Russell Moore any day.
Look, Russell Moore basically, he looks at his sheep.
He looks at his flock as sheep to be shorn for tithes and offerings so he can do good deeds in the ghetto, either here or overseas.
Meanwhile, he has nothing but contempt for the sheep that God has assigned to him to pastor.
Quickly, Keith, we'll follow this up.
We only have one more segment left.
Now, I may have saved the best for last tonight.
So stay stupid for the last segment.
I really got a treat for you in that one.
But some of Russell Moore's greatest hits.
Now, remember, another thing that Russell Moore does is he writes regular columns for the Antichrist, Washington Post, and New York Times.
And what he normally does in these columns is attack Christians who voted for Trump or have a Confederate flag.
Some of his greatest hits are the cross and the Confederate flag.
Now, that appeared in the either the Washington Post or the New York Times.
They're interchangeable.
He basically said, you can't have a cross and the Confederate flag together because one would set the other on fire, even though the Confederate flag is a Christian cross, so there's that.
He had have evangelicals who support Trump lost their values.
He answers the question after asking it.
The answer is yes.
You can't really be a Christian and support Trump.
And then Southern Baptist and the Confederate flag, just another article bashing his mother and father, basically, his ancestors, dishonoring his ancestors.
Perfect example of why there is no such thing as liberal Christianity.
That would be like holy sin.
Liberalism is the alternative faith to modern Christianity in the West today.
And Russell Moore is an apostate priest, okay?
He is an Advocate and a devotee not of Christianity, but of liberalism.
And that comes through loud and clear in every public pronouncement that he makes.
If Russell Moore is fired by the Southern Baptist Convention, and I pray that he will be, we're going to celebrate his demise on this program.
It's going to be a glorious day for Southern Baptists.
If you ask me to name the single most important reason Southern Baptists are in decline, it's Russell Moore.
Drive the money changers out of the temple.
Don't hesitate to tell you it's Russell Moore.
He is proof of the effect that just a single interest can have on corrupting an institution.
Drive the money changers out of the temple, folks.
We're back right after this, last segment of the night.

So it was interesting, Keith and I were remarking that the Washington Post would take Russell Moore's part, that they're defending Russell Moore.
Now, there couldn't be a more anti-Christian publication than the Washington Post.
But that just goes to show, again, he's not our guy.
He's their guy.
And, of course, when he writes for them, he's not attacking liberal media.
He's attacking his own congregation.
He is the high priest of the church of liberalism, but not the church of Jesus Christ or the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
He is, and you shall know them by their fruits.
You shall know them by their associates.
The fact that George Soros and the Washington Post are effusive with their praise of Russell Moore.
But they allow him to write his own op-eds in their paper.
They don't interview him.
He has his own column in both publications.
Let me tell you something.
You don't get that being a good guy.
No, no.
You know, Roy Moore is a, you know, the Chief Justice of the Alabama Supreme Court who fought to keep the Ten Commandments at the courthouse of the Supreme Court.
He doesn't have a column.
No, he doesn't have a column.
They have nothing but bad things to say about him.
Why did the Washington Post and New York Times give a supposed Christian a column in their papers?
Well, because he's a supposed Christian, he's actually with the church of what's happening now, baby, as Flip Wilson called it.
And let me say that Southern Baptists are doing the right thing.
You know, you need to, you know, I hear Southern Baptists all the time saying, once you're saved, you're saved once and for all, and you can't lose your salvation.
Well, then don't be intimidated into tithing to support a character like Russell Moore.
Tell them the only sound that a liberal fears is the click of a closing purse.
And if you do that, you'll get the attention of the Southern Baptist Vatican real quick.
Well, as you have, yes, as this article shows, you know.
Here it is.
Last year at the, not the Republican National Convention, the Southern Baptist Convention.
Now, here you have Russell Moore, this pretentious, pompous guy up there.
Self-important, know-it-all.
Yeah, mouthpiece for the regime.
He was up there giving his talk, and then it opened to Q ⁇ A.
And I watched this.
I watched this on video.
You had a small-time pastor from a small-time church in a small town in Arkansas.
Rural Arkansas.
Arkansas, right?
He came up in his blue jeans and his flannel shirt, and he asked Moore about, is it a good idea?
One of the Southern Baptist Convention's initiatives was to send some of their tithe money to help build a mosque in New Jersey.
Yes, you heard me right.
He questioned the importance of that, and Moore dressed him down like he was the stupidest son of a gun you'd ever see.
But this small-time pastor actually does represent the kinds of good people that go to Southern Baptist churches.
I know that because I'm not sure.
And he's sound doctrinally.
When are you supposed to be supporting a false faith?
You know, if you're a Christian, and in particular, if you're a Southern Baptist, you know, are you sending money to Buddhists?
Are you sending money to Muslims?
Are Muslims sending money to Southern Baptists?
No, they're sending bombs and jihadists to them.
I got to tell this story because this is important.
I haven't even finished telling you this story, Keith.
I've been trying to all night in the commercial breaks.
But, all right, so Keith and I had dinner.
What day was that, Keith?
Thursday?
Friday.
Yesterday.
Okay.
Wow.
Was it already yesterday?
Yeah.
Well, it was lunch and not dinner even at that.
So we had lunch yesterday.
My days.
Listen, folks, I always have two bags under my eyes, two black bags.
I have three now.
I didn't know that was possible.
I won't go three black bags under my eyes.
I'm always spread so thin.
Anyway, so we had lunch yesterday.
It seems like it was two days ago.
It was yesterday.
And after I left lunch with Keith, I went and did another stop.
And we get recognized from time to time.
A guy came up to me.
He said, hey, man, how's the show going?
So I knew he was, you know, knew about the show, obviously, knew who I was.
I said, oh, it's going good.
You know, hey, nice to see you.
And we got to talking for a minute, just having a casual conversation, kind of all over the place.
He said, well, what do you think about Alex Jones?
And I said, well, Alex Jones is okay.
I think he's a little bit buffoonish, but some of the stuff he covers is okay.
And he goes, you know who I really can't stand?
This guy told me.
He said, I can't stand Glenn Beck.
Glenn Beck's always going on about his great-grandfather who fought in the Union Army.
And I just said, I stopped him right there.
I just deadpanned it.
I said, well, I hope we killed him.
I said it without a grin.
I just said, I hope we killed him.
And first of all, talking about the grandfather.
Yeah, talk about the Union grandfather.
And I mean that very seriously.
Listen, I don't take that lightly, but when you are an enemy combatant invading a sovereign nation under the rules of war, the defenders of their homes have a right to make war against you.
And so I hope that one of my ancestors went to battle again against Glenn Becky.
Well, anyway, so I said, well, I hope he died.
I mean, I hope, you know, and, you know, invading our country.
And he doubled over laughing and said, oh, I hope he did too.
I hope we got him too, you know, patted me on the back.
Well, it turned out that this guy was a Southern Baptist.
So I shared this story to tell you this.
This is a guy, obviously, and I should have probably could have told you, you know, he was in a pickup truck and he had a camo shirt on.
Well, we were talking.
He was a Southern Baptist.
So this just goes to show, again, the context between the people who actually go to these churches and the so-called leadership of the convention.
Well, that's what's happened throughout Christendom.
That's what's happened at the Episcopal Church.
You know, you have Russell Moore, we had Bishop Pike.
That's what's happened in the Methodist church.
That's what's happened in the Lutheran church.
That's what's happened in the Presbyterian Church, the Disciples of Christ Church, the United Church of Christ, which is a Congregationalist church.
Just about every Christian denomination has liberals who have followed the good cultural Marxist mantra of the long march through the institutions.
And they are in charge of denominational headquarters in almost every denomination.
James and Eddie thought that somehow the Southern Baptist denomination would be able to prevent that from happening to themselves.
Instead, they're now been humbled into learning that it happened to them just like it happened to the Episcopalians.
The only difference is we've come out the other end of the chute now.
Now we have a Reformed Episcopal Church that actually wants to do what evangelists are supposed to do and bring the word to people who do not have to.
But to be fair, you'll still see more Confederate flags in the parking lot of a Southern Baptist church than you will Reformed Episcopal.
For what that's worth.
But you won't see a Southern Baptist mission trip going to Croatia either.
So you got to take the bitter with the better.
See, the thing is, you've got to figure out.
The thing is, you can have a Confederate flag, but if you're going to support Russell Moore, that Confederate flag is for naught.
Touche.
Now, I want to say this, and I want to be very clear.
You know, of course, we don't sanction any violence or anything like that.
But in that case, and in that instance.
You're talking about somebody that lived over 150 years.
Well, we're talking about war, too.
If someone breaks into my home as a citizen with rights to defend his castle, I have the right to shoot an invader in my home.
And in war, when people are invading a sovereign nation, in war, armies have the right to do battle.
And I hope that not just Glenn Beck's grandfather, I wish that all of his family.
Well, look, everybody that fought the Civil War has now passed on to their reward, whatever it may be.
Well, I'm not, just don't use that and say, well, Edwards said we don't have the right to kill Yankees anymore.
But, all right, so I want to say this, though.
Hey, we only got a minute or two left.
And we certainly weren't talking about Glenn Beck.
No, no, no, no.
We believe that God wishes not the death of the sinner, but rather that he may turn from his wickedness and live.
Amen.
I hope Glenn Beck lives a thousand years.
And I hope the scales fall from his eyes and he embraces the true religion.
And I hope that for Russell Moore, too.
We hope he comes to his senses along that thousand-year journey.
But all right, so we've only got a couple of minutes left.
Don't forget, $100 or more, you get an autographed copy of the book, The Truth About Selma, by Paul Kersey.
Hey, last week, we made an appearance at Northwestern University, had a great QA with the students.
We were well received at the Medell School of Journalism there at Northwestern.
That was last week.
This week, we're in the Washington Post being smeared alongside Andrew Jackson and Donald Trump.
The point is, the political cesspool is always out there.
We are always doing something.
And we have all the right enemies and all the right friends.
In our own church, in the media, and everywhere else.
Hey, but we're always out there.
We're always doing something to advance our mission, whether it's on the air every Saturday night.
Hey, that's just the beginning of it.
It doesn't nearly end there.
We are always out there.
Appearances in the press, on the air.
We need your help to continue to do these things.
If you can't afford $100 to get the book, we hope you can.
$5, we got a $10 contribution today.
I applaud that as much as anything we've ever gotten.
It's all relative.
Whatever you can do, it means the same to us.
And if you support our work, support our work.
People out there, God love you.
You've listened.
Look, we recognize that we're on your side because the people who are your enemies certainly recognize that James and the political cesspool are their enemies.
We're the first place they go to almost every time if they want to denounce people that think like you do, people that have traditional values, that believe in the, do not think they're better people or better Christians than their grandfathers and great-grandfathers, people that don't denounce their heritage but embrace it.
Those people see us as their natural enemies.
It's like a dog seeing a cat.
Okay, that's a, you know, you don't have to tell a dog that he is the cat's the enemy.
You don't have to tell a cat that the dog is the enemy.
These people show that they recognize our show as the enemy, which means we are over the target because we're catching flag.
