Good morning and welcome to Brandenburg News Network. I am Donna Brandenburg, and it is the twelfth day of March twenty twenty five. And welcome to our show today. So today we have Liberty Essentials and at nine o'clock and Joshua Pruitt, a Jay Sixer, will be on at ten. And Bill Moore wasn't able to come in today. He's he's pretty busy with his fifth child that was just born, Bill, Bill the third. So he had a son born after four, four girls. which he's pretty excited about that, and working on things at his house and such. And I just, we really wish both Bill and Megan well. So today we have on Shawn Starry and Karen the Riveter. So let's get at this, guys. How you guys doing? Good. Good morning. Good morning. What's happening in Shawn and Karen world? Well, the other day I was actually tearing down an old shed and was trying to put a new one up and there was an exposed wire that was running underneath the slab that wasn't connected to anything. But I broke the cardinal rule of trying to cut that wire. You're supposed to, you know, put your foot on the ground, cut away. Instead, I grabbed the wire, cut towards me and I ended up cutting my finger pretty good. So. I saw that on your TikTok channel. It looked like you've got quite an injury there. I did. I did. I think my wife was more queasy and disturbed by it than I was. Yeah, I can say that's probably the case. I think all of us women have seen our guys do things that make us go, okay. How about you, Karen? How are you doing? My dad and my husband both. We'll do the thing where they go, and then you have no idea if it's a minor injury or a major injury because they respond the same way. And to them, well, I would be like, I get a cut on my finger and it bothers me for a week and it's like, oh, woe is me. They just get bloody knuckles and they're like, yeah, I worked on the engine and I did the yard and I just kept on going. Let's just pour a little gasoline on it for disinfectant. Throw some leaves and mud on it, tape it up and we're good, right? I'm getting better at it. I think doing some outdoor things has got me to, I've been there. So some days it's like, yeah, it's bleeding, but that's okay. it's just a garden tool that I'm using. It can get blood on it. Big deal. Just keep, keep working. Okay, so this is actually a good segue into something because I was going to go into the fact that one of my sons ran a drill into his hand when he was younger and he comes in holding his hand. It's my tinkering son, whom you both know. And he comes into the house and he's like, I just ran the drill in my hand. And I'm like, you did what? And I'm like freaking out because he's a fabulous piano player. I mean, it's like he's hurt. That's terrible. And I'm like freaking out totally. And then he tells me how he did it. He was going through PVC pipe and he held the PVC pipe and he drilled into it just to go for the first one. And of course it went boom through both levels. And then I was like, you better hope you're hurt at this moment in time. Cause I'm like, you're in trouble with me right now for being so stupid to run a drill towards your hand. I'm like, so not only was he hurt in the hand, but he got his butt chewed pretty well as we were going to the emergency room and never made the mistake again, though, you know, that was a good learning experience, you know? So anyhow, let's, let's talk about what you were just talking about farming and such and what's going on here in true Liberty. is the fact that you are free of dependence. You have the freedom to do what you want to do. Okay. We talk about it in the political realm and, uh, Just so everybody knows, I said something about it yesterday. I actually won the race for chair for the U.S. Taxpayers Party, which is the Constitution Party in Michigan. Only Jocelyn Benson, who is a criminal, is obstructing our ability, like all the other parties in the United States, the state parties, to change their name. We are not allowed to change her name right now because she just doesn't want to do it. There's nothing that says that she can't do it. And it's not written in any statute or process or anything. She's just obstructing. So we wrote a resolution on this and I started writing resolutions. for the Taxpayers Party, which is the Constitution Party. And I got a feeling this is going to not be a good ending for her if she decides to not do it, because we're going to ratchet this thing up legally until she changes it, because there's just no excuse for obstructing a party or a person from doing business the way that they so choose. She doesn't get to tell us, nor does Gretch the Wretch Whitmer, get to tell us what to do. And on that note, yesterday was Gretch the Wretch's fifth anniversary of writing the first unconstitutional executive orders for the state of Michigan, which is going to go down in history as one of the most disgusting treasonous acts that was ever committed upon the United States outside of that, maybe like nine, eleven and the Fed and all of this. But I mean, she's right up there in the top and the top rung of the of the traders. Right. And this just so everybody knows, we're going to go back to liberty again. The executive branch, a governor, a president, a governor does not have the right to issue executive orders upon the people. we are their bosses they don't get to tell us what to do now they can tell their staff which is the executive branch and who they have worked for them how they want the laws carried out and policies actually the executive branch is actually involved in how to spend the money how to fund things it's more of a it's more of a financial um responsibility than anything and a governor can shut the state right now they can go through and shut it right now if it is not being lawfully executed. And so there's a lot of good things. And I think that right now, President Trump is going for the unitary executive, which is to restore the executive branch. He gets to hire, fire who he wants at any point in time. And if you don't have that, then you don't have a separation of powers. So the legislature is violating that. The judicial system is violating. It's all in violation right now. And it all has to go. It has to go and go back to the way that it was supposed to be so that we have checks and balances, which we do not. So anyhow, let's go back to, I wrote a post this morning on what you were talking about and being tough and preparing because The stock market has taken a pretty good nosedive here and it's going to be worse. We signed up for this. If you signed up for changing the United States and you're surprised that we're going to have some financial difficulties, you're bad, right? We signed up for this because we want to restore the United States, not just to have the same old, same old going on. And that's going to come with a little bit of hurt from all of us, in my opinion. So I wrote a post this morning on Telegram and I haven't put it on X yet, but I will. And at its core, what is monetary wealth? And this is a good time to do some introspection on ourselves and what we're willing to die for, what we're willing to stand for, what we're willing to work for or sacrifice for freedom and for this country. So anyhow, monetary wealth, it is the illusion of security in a chaotic world. Equating money and wealth to security is the illusion. Money was sought after and over the soul. That's what the country is being based on right now is money, money. Our identity is tied to money. How successful we are is tied to money. And unfortunately, all we got in return is a fiat currency. now we're looking at crypto and I've got some real concerns about this real concerns about it now so now the focus is on crypto no real value in crypto any more than there was in fiat currency there's nothing real there and it only works as long as the electricity is on if the power goes out or if there's a collapse you won't be able to buy anything not gonna be able to buy anything anyway it's gonna it's going to be a collapse as a collapse and a devaluation when you look at The over one million mortgages that have been being defaulted on basically and paid by the U.S. government to keep the collapse from coming. We got a problem and there's another four hundred thousand that are in default from what I hear. So that's one million four hundred thousand mortgage defaults out there that we have to be watching. Right. So anyhow, we have a lack of knowledge on how to survive on the earth without being dependent on this beast system. If you want security, first off, trust God because he can provide in any and all situations and figure out how to grow food and prepare food. The richest people will be those who can feed clean, nutritious food to people free of poisons because money will not work if there's a catastrophic interruption. What happens if there is a catastrophic interruption? Who's going to farm? Who's going to have the gas to run the tractors? Are the big farming operations are going to be null and void? So anyhow, learn as many skills as you can. You're going to need them. And that is advice from Donna Brandenburg. mom advice, good mom advice to all y'all. So anyhow, there you go. Let's talk about prepping. If you guys want to talk for a minute, I'm going to go ahead and post my TikTok video this morning onto Telegram and onto my and on to my ex-account. First of all, by the way, congratulations. I've known about it for a couple of days because I've watched your videos, but I haven't actually gotten a chance to tell you congratulations. And For anybody who wants to know more about the resolution, you read through it yesterday on the show. And so I want to say, besides that, I noticed the way you were speaking this morning. I was thinking, you have come such a long way from the first time we met to now. I was listening to that resolution, and I'm like, I know you had help, but still, like... you're choosing your words more carefully because you understand how they matter. You comprehend how they matter. Um, and, and you're learning the legalese, the lawful expression of words. Um, and, So you're you are so much more thoughtful about it and knowledgeable about it. And it gets you farther. You know, you have such a better comprehension than you did a couple of years ago. So I can see Donna in office being a lot more effective. Well, you know, I was running for governor and I didn't I was like, OK, I'd never even been to a coffee, let alone, you know, let alone anything else. And I'm not kidding you. It's like it's like this is this was one of those leaves of faith. And I'm really not scared of anything. And that's that's a. A benefit is probably well as a, it's a learning. Everything is a learning experience for me. And I don't mind making mistakes. Okay. That's probably something that really separates me from other people. If I get asked to do something, I just dive in. I'm not interested in being perfect because I already know I'm not. And I'm not interested in what people have to say to approve of what I do or what I don't do. I'm not out for the polls. I'm not out for public opinion. None of that. There's a job to be done. And I'm asked to do it by somebody I respect and or there's a reason there would be a reason, first of all. And second of all, when you see something wrong, you have to just dive in and do it and not expect somebody else to do it for you and just figure it out along the way. And it's like it's sort of like what was it, Miss Frizzle with what was the what was the old kid's? cartoon that was on, Miss Frizzle was on, I can't remember. I didn't watch it, my kids did. But it was, don't be afraid to make messes. Make messes. Explore. Do the things that you have never done before. And that's how we learn. And it's not about, you know, it's not about, oh, boy, you looked dumb a couple years ago. Well, probably I did, and I just don't care. No, and that's the thing. When I met you, And I was asking you some questions because I wanted to know what your knowledge base was at that time. Did you understand the difference between, for example, legal and lawful? The concepts of de jure and de facto. And what I left there with was, I think she really wants to know. I think she really wants to learn and she has a willingness to do it, a desire to do it. And that's what gave me faith in you because nobody else, you look at these politicians today, I mean, they don't even know the difference between a democracy and a representative republic. How can they possibly be in office when they don't have any desire to learn about their own governmental system and And they want to sit in that seat. And here's Donna like a mile ahead. They don't even know the job. And I think that that's the one thing. It's like to get in and figure out how to run a campaign when everybody was trying to sabotage me as a true outsider. I didn't even know that I had access to the voter to the voter rolls as a candidate. And everybody was hiding this stuff. We did an investigation. So one thing I'm good at is investigating. So I jumped in, made a bunch of mistakes. That's how I built my businesses. Nobody showed me how to do this. I just started doing it and figuring it out on the fly. People would ask me, well, how did you know? how to install windows. You didn't have YouTube back there. How did you know how to finish floors or do drywall or tile or install things and such? It's like, well, I just got in there and figured it out and would go to the the hardware store that's an old hardware store near where my properties are, and talk to the old guys there and say, okay, I need some coaching here. I don't know how to do it, but I need to get this done. How do you do that? So you ask people, which is one of the strengths of BNN. BNN, Brandenburg News Network, the great thing is I've got over two years of doing long interviews with people who have subject matter that they know way better than I could ever dream to know, because that's all they focus on. So you're getting a bunch of experts that can help educate not only myself, but everyone else out there. And that's what you have to do. It was funny, because when I first ran, it's like, here I am, never gone to anything political but asked. to run by an entity I very much respect. And I was like, when I was asked, my reaction was, you got to be kidding me. Why would you want me to do this? You were like, I hate everybody in politics. I'm a political hater. I'm disgusted by these people. And you want me to run? I'm like, there is not one moment I will keep my mouth shut If I see somebody that is doing the wrong thing, I will point it out. I will say it. And I'm not there. I won't just be a friend to them just to be a friend. I'm there for a different reason. I'm there because I like truth. I like things that work right there, honest. And I'm not going to sit there and jump in with them and say this is okay. Now, there's been a few times that I've been surprised by what I've seen, where I was not told about the situations that I was in that could probably be me. construed as something that it wasn't because I literally talked to everyone. But in a way, it's an education for me because these are things that I had no idea how they worked, zero at all. And now I've got a pretty good idea because I've had front row seat on this, but nothing can prepare you for that. And I appreciate that. That's a really good compliment, Karen, because I really do feel pretty confident in knowing the subject matter that I had I had no hand up. And it's just like, you know, I looked up just willing to step in. And I mean, anybody could do what I've done. Anybody can do this. Right. There's no special qualifications here except for I have a no back down kind of personality. I run a ton of different kinds of businesses. So I understand the business side of how things work really well. And, you know, we never took the, we didn't take the government money in building our company. We just worked our way out of it. Okay. That's all we did. And so there's a big difference there from, from say myself and somebody like it came across this morning that slot Kim's been taking money for farm subsidies, but she's never had a farm and we have a farm, but we don't take farm subsidies for it. And so we actually have several farms. and we don't take farm subsidies for it. And I think that once we stop this, and I understand the farm economy very, very well. It's like once we stop the ethanol crap that's going on and the subsidies, the only reason why ethanol works, it's because it's subsidized. And there's so much better ways of doing this to produce fuel from crops rather than corn. Corn is a bad plan on an agricultural, and so is soybeans. on a large agricultural farming scale. It's bad. It only benefits the control of our food supply, and it's terrible on the land. It popped up other subsidized industries to grip off the taxpayer dollars, and we're going to have to resolve this because this was all about how China got in to buy our farmland. I could talk about this stuff forever, right? But the stuff that we're talking about, which is how the government works, how it actually works and how it's supposed to work and what's the difference of it is huge. And I actually did, I downloaded the job description for the governor, for the legislature. So you know what rails they're supposed to be on so that not only Donna Brandenburg as governor, but donna grandberg as as a citizen of the united states or person and I'm not going to argue the debate get debated terms will always get debated but you all know what I mean yes so it's like um I'm not going to be a little pedantic uh jerk about it right now and so you know to go through this and uh I don't know, know what, know how to hold people accountable and the resolutions that I've been writing for the constitution party. And I I've been starting them out and I've got somebody else that jumped in to help start a couple of them. We've got two people that are starting them now and also putting law into it. I'm looking up law, understanding how to get the law and it has been great. Right. And so, but to be able to do this now, we've got the law, we've got the policies, we've got the research into how and why it works. We've contacted everybody in the executive branch, every member of the Michigan legislature, as well as the clerks and such. They can't say they don't know. And so the next step is the holding them accountable and putting them in their sorry place and holding them accountable for breaking the law. Every single one of them has broken the law in the state of Michigan. They have done nothing. The Republicans and the Democrats, the parties themselves are criminal organizations. And I can say that with certainty because they have taken dark money. And this has been going on for decades where we see this boys or the big boys club kind of mentality where we have entities that are, or I should say organization, that are not from the United States, but rather from other foreign sources that pump and dump billions and billions of dollars into these politicians, into, you know, writing up. Well, and that's another thing, too, is a lot of people don't understand is that the lobbyists, they work for these organizations. The lobbyists don't actually work for the people. The politicians do, too. yeah and so they write these bills and they hand them off with little click note versions on a tab piece of paper for the politician to present the bill and then go ahead and pass it and then when the fallout occurs the politicians will go back and you know and come up with some excuses of why they passed this bill. And this has been going on for several decades, and this is where Elon Musk is finding how this money kind of circulates. It comes out of our taxpayer pockets, you've said, and then it goes to these organizations, and these organizations take this money, pump and dump it back into these bills. And it's just a Ponzi scheme that they've been running for so long, which is probably your understanding of why a lot of, especially the Democrat Party, in part largely, is out there screaming the loudest because they are all part of this dark money and they're all part of this this system that is not for the people but rather for themselves and for the for these organizations um and they don't want to lose that uh uh when I call it uh uh slush fund right they don't want to lose this slush fund because they know that's the gravy train that keeps uh the corruption going uh and That's why they're orchestrating this protest against Elon. And a lot of people, you know, don't seem to understand is number one, Elon has a security clearance because he was working with NASA. Number two, Elon's job as what he was hired for was to go and find the corruption within these agencies that are within the executive branch. and then bring it to trump and then trump is the one that says okay we're going to cut this we're going to cut this whether it's through by executive order or whether they bring it to congress and then have congress go and slash these things They don't. It's kind of like it's kind of like that old saying goes, you know, you know, your store got robbed, but you got Elon looking at the camera and he tells you who robbed your store. But then you turn around and call the police on Elon. It doesn't make any sense unless you're part of that corruption to begin with. And that's what I'm seeing. Let me, let me add to that too. It's not just who's screaming the loudest right now. It's who's not screaming and the Republican party is not screaming and holding them accountable. They kind of say, yeah, we've got a problem here. Boo hoo. But who's taking any action against this? Almost nobody. They're just sitting there calling the, I'm going to call it the bitch ball back and forth. It goes back and forth and back and forth, right? And nobody's really doing anything. And so when I look at this, I'm going to name the names of the Act Blue funded. And you remember Act Blue was also part of rigging the elections in the state of Michigan and which campaigns that they were behind. Five Act Blue funded gangs orchestrated Tesla protests to kneecap America's greatest innovator. This is from a channel called Final Telegraph on X. Troublemakers, Disruption Project, Rise and Resist, Indivisible Project, and Commie Democrat Socialist Puppets Dancing for Sorrows. Hoffman, Sandler, Baumann, Hunt, Hendricks. This isn't a protest. It's economic sabotage by global elites who hate Trump's vision, President Trump's vision, and Musk's guts. And it goes further than that. But I think that this is something to remember. And there's also absolutely, absolutely, one hundred percent proof of Obama, OFA coordinating with Indivisible, which fights Trump's agenda and is involved in nearly all anti-Trump protests. that are above listed. And there's a bunch of them. SWMM, Statewide Indivisible Michigan, is part of the Indivisible project, and it appears to be connected to ActBlue funding and the attacks going on in a retribution campaign against Elon Musk and Teslas and potentially the owners. And this is terrorism. This is domestic terror. And with the Democrat Party really Having direct connections to this, how can we not say that this party is a terrorist organization? Because they're all funded the same way. And if you really want to know, they're funded by pushing that green initiative. And it is a horrific collaboration and collusion that's going on there. But I would maintain that the Republican Party is just as guilty. All they're doing is a popularity crisis, and nobody's doing anything. It's like they say, you know, it's the same bird, but two different feathers. You've got the left and you've got the right wing, right? And, you know, for many, many years, you know, I have always been an independent because years ago I got to see some of the stuff in action where you start to understand that, you know, the corruption is in the entire body of Congress to begin with. You know, and... in there was an organization that came out and it's called conventionalstates.com they have been pushing to get states involved into the convention so they can restrict and limit the members of the body of congress um this is something that needs to be done and this is another this is another reason why uh states should be joining um to put it in to this this policy scheme that they've been running, the fraud, the waste, the abuse, and the domestic terrorist acts that they've been doing for decades. At least I can think of going all the way back to when the Democrat Party was first conceived. They ran the KKK. They They ran Antifa. They ran BLM. I mean, they funded these organizations primarily to do the same exact thing as what Hitler did with his people by using the brown shirts to go and terrorize people into voting for him. And this is the MO of the Democrat Party. But on the other side of the aisle, we've got the Republicans who have taken the party itself and they've tarnished it by, quote unquote, joining in on with the Democrats and then running a script. It's almost like watching a daytime soap opera where, like you're saying, you know, they're they're crying back and forth and saying, oh, you need to do this. And, you know, I've heard a quote a long time ago when I was in college by Plato. It says that politics is a poor man's entertainment because all politics do is they point fingers at each other. They take no accountability. Although most politicians can't even balance a budget or they don't want to balance a budget because they know there's money to be made. Right, right. And we've got these The problem is we've got organizations that are not a part of the United States to begin with. A lot of them are not even U.S. citizens. And they're pumping and dumping, funneling billions of dollars into these other little side organizations as, you know, Act Blue or whatever. And all that money is coming from us. That's our taxpayer dollars that you said. That's basically getting funneled back in. And. We're all sitting here going, okay, well, let's blame this party, blame this party. But when we take a step back and we go, okay, let's look at the money. And this is what Elon's been doing. He said, okay, here's the money. This is where the money's going. Okay, we've been tracing this money, and this is how this money's coming back in. So then we come to the realization that neither party has clean hands to begin with. But obviously, but the big thing, the big picture of it is, is this is exposing the corruption that's coming from both parties to help us understand that Congress needs to be limited, just like the president does, just as the founding fathers were so worried about a king or a dictator. Well, we've got over five hundred members of Congress that have been lying to the American people through their teeth for decades. And that's not going to change unless we bring to the attention. OK, here's the corruption. Here's where the money's going. This is how it's getting funneled. And this is what it's being used for. And that's exactly what Elon's doing. And so that's why there needs to be a push, an even much greater push for the convention so that the states can get involved and say, okay, Congress, we're going to hold you accountable. We're going to put restrictions, we're going to put limitations. Can I offer a counterpoint to that? Sure. I hate the convention of states. And I'll tell you why. Because I don't believe that we have anybody in politics right now that has the ethics to do the right thing And if they get their hand on that constitution, and or they make any more laws or rules, it's only gonna wreck it. I go to nullification and direct prosecution. We don't need to add, we need to take away. And I'm absolutely against it because it's like, how do we know where they're getting their money from? And I'll tell you, when I was done with it was the first time I had somebody come to talk about the Convention of States. This chick was certifiably nuts. And I'm like, I could have picked her out as MK Aldrin from twenty miles away. She was absolutely nuts. At one point, or two times, she jumped up in the air and bam, came down on her knees on the floor. Geez. And she's throwing herself around and all kinds of manic crazy crap. But I mean, she hit on her knees pretty heavily. And I'm like, this chick is MKUltra. And so I want to know who's behind the convention of states push the organization because I give them no leeway whatsoever. Someone is funding this. Who's involved in it? Because it's just like every other little Yahoo group that's out there that's being funded by somebody, you know, like, like, most of the grassroots groups are being funded by the same place. They're all getting their money from dark money sources. And these people are hired, how do they have enough time in a day? to work a job and be as active as there someone is funding them and when we connect the dots we can see they're all being funded by the same source it's it's all the same things the same ones that fund the politicians is the same ones that fund the lobbyists and the grassroots groups and now usaid comes out and says they're they funded five thousand get this five thousand podcasters and influencers and alternative media channels Okay, so they're making me look real good because I haven't taken any money for this, right? We do this all for free. Everybody here comes on for free. I don't pay people. If you want to get paid, go get paid by somebody that does USAID. You're not going to get it here. This is just ornery friends talking about stuff we don't like, right? Or solutions. But I'm going to tell you, I am so done with that Convention of States. And until I see somebody that's worthy of touching the Constitution or any part of it or trying to alter it or whatever, they've screwed this up since the Fourteenth Amendment. Every other amendment after that has been to alter a previous amendment. And it is unconstitutional to alter a previous amendment. And that's all they've done. I'm going to go back to the idea, too, that... I'm still stuck on the woman going, bam, on the ground, and I'm like, oh, get a cage. I agree with you. I don't trust that either, but I think the MAGA movement has made progress with a lot of people's critical thinking, but we're still not there because... For example, I saw something the other day in... This is really, really common still. Well, we have control of the House and the Senate and the president. What do you mean we? Who we? What, the Republican Party? You think the Republican Party has control and that means you have control? So we had a fake election process to put every single one of them in there. None of the elections that brought any of those people there can be relied upon, even Trump. We can't rely on that election process. So it's all, in a sense, fake. And I hate using that word. It's not quite the right word, but it is. It's not a lawful Congress. It's not a lawful party. And you think you, by way of these fraudulent people sitting there, have any control over it? You don't. You voting as a Republican grassroots member does not put someone in office. You do not have control over anything as a party member. People have got to get that out of their heads and stop thinking like, well, we had a red wave. The red wave was a tool to get Trump into office. The red wave is dead now. Trump is not speaking as a Republican. He does occasionally. It's an education tool when he does it. He's talking about Representative Massey not doing what he should and we should primary him. That's a really good example to me. You might have Massey, a Republican, going against his party because he's doing the absolute right thing. But he's making a lot of people upset at him because he's going against Trump or the party. And Trump is making a big headlight out of him. Oh, look at this guy. He's not doing what we want him to. What we want him to. Maybe he's doing the absolute right thing. But Trump is using him for the narrative. And people can't see that. The narrative is... It's us versus the Republicans versus the Democrats. And the Democrats are keeping us from passing a budget, which hasn't happened since what? Ninety seven. Ninety six. I found out yesterday. Never had a budget asked in the federal government for years. So you want to claim that the Democrats are about to shut down the government. That's the narrative that Trump needs to push. He says, And the GOP is not responsible for a shutdown of the government. And the only way you can do that is by trying to make Massey look bad. Massey might be a good guy who's going against the red wave. People have got to start thinking about things differently. Look at what the narrative is. What is best for the country? If the country needs a government shutdown... How can Trump get that to happen? He can't look like the bad guy. He's got to have somebody else in that position. But he may be doing it, too, because a lot of his appointments are not what I would have chosen. Because of the backgrounds there, you have to question it. So we may have, you know, we may right now is I think we're still learning how to evaluate things. and think and not be told what to do we have to be able to take responsibility for every single decision that's what a good dad would do a good dad is going to sit there and have you throw things in front of you so you figure it out so you can think you can be strong you can stand without him there and quite honestly president trump's not going to be there forever It's an effect of being human. You know, nobody lives forever. And who is going to come next that's going to be worthy to fill that office and to be able to – are you there, Karen, or did you drop out? I think Karen – I lost Karen. I'm here. There you go. Yeah, your other screen dropped out. Yeah, drop out for a second. who is going to be worthy to fill that who's going to have the ethics who's going to continue to lead the country not to follow into the next with the next um uh person that just steps up that says oh I'm the best thing for the country no you're here as a service contract do your job right and uh You know, what did the commie slot can, the commie slot can said, well, this is, this is funny. I posted this on my ex channel and I mean, this woman is an absolute disgrace. Uh, she basically said, let me see, I will quote it exactly. I could even believe she said it. I'm like, wow. And she just went out there for me too. That made it easy for me. He says people voted for Trump because we're in our angry teenage years. And our brains aren't fully formed yet. And I'm like, well, it's pretty easy. Her brain isn't fully formed yet. But, you know, so they're trying to tell everybody what to think. They're framing the narrative. She's framing a narrative again. You know, I do like a compilation of how many narratives that are out there telling people what we believe, who they have picked to run. They're picking the candidates. before they even collect the signatures, before the primaries, before all of this. They're picked probably the previous election cycle on who is going to come and run next. One thing I've noticed is, especially with the Democrat Party, right now the Democrats are trying to figure out who's going to be their next strongest candidate to represent their party for the next presidential race. And Right now, we got J.B. Pritzler in the state of Illinois who's pitching himself for the position to run as the champion of the DNC party. And what they're doing is they're pulling by having him go and talk to certain pundits. I like to call them pundits. That's what they are. He's trying to appease the Democrat Party and trying to see what the poll numbers are going to be. And so based on those poll numbers, if they feel like, okay, he's our strongest candidate, then they're going to prop him up in one way or another to be the guy that's going to lead the party. But this is why they're doing it now before four years, because this is what they do. It's not like... It's not like what it used to be back, you know, a hundred years ago where some Joe Blow from nowhere who lives in the state of Illinois decides, okay, I'm going to run for president. Nobody really knows me, but I'm going to give him an opportunity to get to know me as I am running, right? And my party that I'm in, I don't know, let's just say it's the, you know, The Independent Party. Right. And so I go out there and I'm talking to people and I'm, you know, just maybe doing like I used to do, like little debates, like with Lincoln and Douglas. Right. Whenever he's running for Illinois Senate. and they hit all these different towns on a train journey together. And basically they get up on a platform. People will converge and then they would just have this debate. And the whole idea was, is that back then, Anybody could go and actually run, okay? It wasn't controlled by the party. The party didn't just like, okay, we got this career politician in this state, so we're gonna put him out there and get a feel from the public. Okay, this is who, it's all a popularity contest. It's not about focusing on issues, policies, things that actually matter, that matter the most. For example, like, the farm issue, right? Corporate farming has been the cancer of the farming community. Farmers know how to farm. They know what's best, right? Mom and dads, you know, when it comes to school, it's the school issues. Mom and dads know what's best for their kids, right? Fortunately, they got silenced. They got, you know, FBI sent after them and they got kicked out of, you know, these meetings. But the point is, is that I guess I'm trying to get to is that the parties, the two-party system, this monster, this beast, you want to call it, has had control of pretty much almost every election. The outcome, you know, and even the process of it. So, you know, and that's why, you know, we're kind of in a position today, like even as an independent voter myself, you know, I'm going to take a look at things as based on factual evidence, but I'm also going to be looking at the behaviors. How are they behaving towards who they were? What kind of history do they have? Because that tells me a lot about their type of thought process they have. And is it a person who is going to sacrifice themselves for the better of the nation? Or is this somebody who is only getting into politics so they can make money? You know, that right there tells me two things. So that's, I base a lot of my judgments on who I'm voting for, not why, how much money they've made in business or, you know, the fact that they're a legal immigrant that came over here, became a citizen, then ran for, you know, Congress, right? None of that matters. Skin color, all that stuff, none of that matters. What matters is, Are they actually going into Congress because they want to make hard sacrifices? And if they're not, they're just kind of been a career politician. I don't think there should ever be a such thing as a career politician. I believe it should be a revolving door. And I don't think parties should have any control of who should be running a normal person would look at this and say who out of their right mind would want to this job right I mean that's why all the good that's why all the good decent people aren't in the seats and I don't blame them I really don't I mean I mean it's like who would want this job you gotta you got a population who doesn't have integrity that and the government is right now it's representative of that and you have people standing there with their hand out full time Being part of the problem, trying to figure out who can get the most amount of money from the pie. Well, guess what? The pie is all of us. They are literally eating up with their entitlements. There's no such thing as entitlements. That's not even a real thing. That word should be gone. There is no entitlements, okay? That's called theft of taxpayer money, okay? And that's the way if you paid into an account like the way Social Security should have been, you should have that back. That was a savings plan in effect. But they've got that going to everybody else on the planet. That's not an entitlement. That was a savings retirement plan is what it was. And so we need to retool this whole thing because it's just theft. It's money laundering. And they're great at this. So it's amazing. I've got to read a couple of comments. Denise chimed in and said, I feel like I was going to a religious cult meeting when Convention of the States came around pushing their crap into Macomb County. We walked out. And, oh, the Massey mess. Again, Trump is not really with us, she said. Massey is spot on. He's pushing back the establishment. Karen, you got it. I'm sure Massey did not vote for Speaker Johnson. What a weasel. I think President Trump is just truly, I really do think that his role is to teach us to think. Yes. So this is the thing I observed yesterday. This is why I pointed at Massey. Because There was a post about this on We The Media about him, Trump pointing at him and his post. And all of the comments were, in my opinion, they were wrong. I could be wrong about my opinion and my guess at this, but they weren't even using their heads. And then people that follow that channel, that page on Telegram, I think they're reasonably intelligent people, generally speaking. But none of the comments, or maybe one, were even thinking about it in larger narrative terms. Oh, Trump is wrong. Trump is bad. This is how you know Trump is with Israel or whatever it was. It was just stupid. It's like maybe Trump is actually working a psyop. And if you think about everything Trump does in terms of questioning which part of the PSYOP is he doing, then you'll see it. And you see it or you won't see it. But here's another thought. The only reason we're not seeing the screaming coming out of the Republicans like we are literally seeing it in the Democrats is because the Republicans have the opportunity to hide behind the Democrats. That's the only reason that they're not like, we don't like what's happening right now because they can't. they're working together the republican party is quote unquote in charge they have to work behind the scenes and keep their mouths shut they don't have the opportunity to scream but behind the scenes I'm telling you they're screaming bobcats too but they don't they're they can't express it like the left can so yeah because they've got they've got are you on this sports team or this sports team which side are you on what if the answer is somewhere out here And they're only giving you the two choices. And the two choices are very manipulative. They're just playing ball back and forth, back and forth, right? But the answer isn't either one of them. The answer is somewhere else. And that's the game right there. Distraction, just like distraction on the southern border. We got a way more porous border on the north border. There's nothing there and nobody's looking there. They're running people across that northern border, getting the paperwork done there, coming back into the United States. If we get attacked, it's probably going to be because of the North and that they've already infiltrated us. And they're saying that the cartels have got javelin missiles down there. Really? What do you think China has on all that land around our military bases across the United States? You think they're just sitting there raising corn? Well, and not only that, but China actually has military bases in the port of Canada. You know, that's one thing I was investigating three years ago or actually four years ago. And China has had a agreement with Canada. for the last fifteen years uh with their little trade agreements that they have they actually have military bases on canadian soil and certain areas where the chinese government has their officials uh controlling the movements of the chinese people that live in canada uh so Again, you know, all that stuff that they've been sending, like the Chinese government is heavily responsible for the manufacturing of the COVID-XIX vaccines, right? We all know now today that that is a biological weapon. Then we've got the fentanyl issue where they've been manufacturing the fentanyl. And then what they do is they ship it over. And then once it gets to Canada or once it gets into southern Mexico with the cartels, then what they do is they actually finish the process of making the fentanyl. And then they start packaging it and they start distributing. So we've got, China's been working us on both ends. But the only, like, you're right. You know, the only issue is that we've been distracted with is the southern border. But at the same time, we still have activity that was going on in the northern border. It's been going on for four years and it's not been brought to anybody's attention, hardly. But You know, they're going to commit crimes where we're not looking and they're going to stay away from the solutions. And the solutions are simple. They're very simple, but they got to make them all kinds of convoluted in order to distract everybody. I'm going to be we're going to be bringing on our next guest. I hope you guys stay on with Josh. Josh Pruitt's going to be on who is the Jay Sixer. But this is this is something I've been I've been thinking about this. Right. You know, you know, you have time to think about things and really plan them out. So Rikers got brought up, you know, prison. And I kind of got an idea of how to deal with this. Right. They're like, we should ship the politicians off to Rikers. I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I don't think I'm going to answer something that you wrote to Karen. It's like you don't you don't do something like that just to give them, you know, what they kind of sort of arguably deserve. My whole thing is if somebody is in prison and this includes the prison guards, I have a friend who they. I'm not going to say her name, but she's a very well-known attorney who they were trying to keep her overnight in a prison to harass her. And the word was that the prison guards were going to have fun with her that night and didn't work out too well for them because there's some really good people out there that aren't going to tolerate this nonsense. However, my opinion on this is, is that if somebody commits a violent crime in prison, they go to automatic execution for it. And it's a death penalty. If you commit a crime in prison, and that goes to the prison guards too, and we have enough ways to have surveillance there on it so that you can't plan evidence. There's ways to do lots of surveillance, right? If there's a crime that's committed, a violent crime in prison by the prisoners, they should have the death penalty for this. And this screwing around with this nonsense by keeping people who are absolutely never going to be rehabilitated. There's no reason for us to pay for these people to waste one more breath on this planet. They're a waste of space. They're a waste of resources. They had the choice to do something right or horribly wrong. And if they, if they murder, beat up, rape, do any of these violent crimes in prison, they're giving everybody the middle finger and say, Nana, Nana, Nana, I got three free meals a day. And I'm going to continue to hurt people. And with that said, you know who I think should be in charge of prison reform? The J sixers. Yeah. Yeah. Put the Jake Sixers in charge of prison reform and let's go. I think this would be great because they've seen the downside of it. And then, you know, you put the little metric out there that if you commit a violent crime, once you go through those doors of any type whatsoever, you're done. You lost it. It's over. Well, I would just put a caveat in there. I'm a firm believer. Advocate and believer in due process. So when you say automatic, I hope you mean with due process. Because even in the prison system, even in the prison system, people can be set up and manipulated. And everybody always, always, always, everybody, and that was what my post was about, deserves due process. I agree. If you're convicted of, if you have committed, and that's the term there that I use, if you have committed a violent crime in prison, you're done. You're done. And I have no faith in the judges right now or the attorneys because they're part of the problem. They're literally advocating letting people out who have committed horrible crimes, but they're putting like dads who haven't paid their child support, which is unconstitutional, in jail for it. I mean, the whole thing is backwards. So we need some real reform there. So I'm going to go to a break and then I'll bring Josh Pruitt on in just a second. If you guys want to stay around, that'd be awesome. So we'll be right back for the second. Amazing hour of Brandenburg News Network with all these sort of controversial subjects that come up in our no censorship platform. We'll be right back in about thirty seconds. Good morning and welcome to the second hour of Brandenburg News Network. I'm Donna Brandenburg and it is the twelfth day of March twenty twenty five and welcome to our show. First, our next guest is going to be Joshua Pruitt and he's a Jay Sixer who was incarcerated and arrested when he was since he was forty years old. And we're going to talk about what happened to him in the little fedsurrection. I refuse to call it a riot, okay? It wasn't a riot. It was a fedsurrection. And we all know who would be the people that set this thing up. So we're just going to call it out for what it is. Morning, Joshua. How are you doing? Good. How are you, Donna? Good. Do you go by Josh or Joshua? Just Josh. Hey, Sean. Hey. Hey, Josh. How are we doing? Good. I didn't know that Sean interviewed you a week or so ago. So this is cool. So it's nice to meet you. Yeah, you too. So did you listen to the discussion that we were having about the prison system before and how screwed up it is? I mean, when you have guards, I mean, I've interviewed enough J-Sixers to know the abuse that was going on. in the prison system and how many of them were actually foreign agents watching our prison. They weren't, most of them weren't even Americans from what I understand. And so this was weaponized, weaponized torture on Americans who are political prisoners for political reasons set up by our federal government, just like nine, eleven was. And every single one of these miserable bastards need to be tried for what they've done. And we need, we need to have a, We need to have a clean house cleaning done. But I do. I think the J-Sixers would be great to put in charge of prison reform. Wouldn't that be amazing? Yeah, I heard that, and I'm a hundred percent on that. You would be my first call if I were in charge. How's that? I mean, yeah, absolutely. I mean, you got fifteen hundred of us. I mean, that's probably more than enough people. But I mean, like. You know, I think a few hundred of us at least did a decent amount of prison time. And I mean, I was at, well, before I got sentenced, I was at ten different places. And and then after that, I went to two different federal prisons, both of them in West Virginia. One of them was McDowell. And then I was only there for four months. And that's when they shipped me to Beckley, which if you look up Beckley, Beckley is one of the rougher federal prisons in the country. So they were it was absolutely the punishment where they put you guys was absolutely horrific. And the stories out of this are going to live on forever. What an example of something that should never, ever happen in the United States of America should happen anywhere. Yeah. Think that the United States of America would be better than this. But I kind of think that the United States has been scraping the bottom of the barrel of corruption. and probably the cause of most of it across the globe because of the amount of money that can be laundered in the United States. I mean, the prison system, it's so messed up. I actually just hit the publish button on my book yesterday, so it'll be out Friday. But I have at least three chapters on prison because, I mean, I can already write so much about J-Six. J-Six was one day. Prison was over three years of my life. Tell us about your, tell us your story about what happened when you were in prison. Cause I I'm just always shocked at, at how they treat people who are clearly, I mean, we're not talking, we're not talking Mance and we're not talking, you know, Jeffrey Dahmer. We're not talking about hard and crimson. We're talking about people that were in Washington, DC and were invited into the Capitol magnetic doors that you couldn't push open with a bulldozer, you know? And they opened the doors and invited people in. Like, you know, I could hear them like the music went in there and it was great. And I was having a good time. And the next thing, you know, things went, went badly. Yeah. I mean, the biggest problem with what they did with us with the prison system was just the way they did the classifications. You know, if anybody's read about me and like my charges, I mean, I pled out to obstruction of an official court proceeding, which is a nonviolent charge. And somehow I end up at a medium slash high facility that most of the people were in there for, I mean, murdering people or getting caught with large amounts of drugs or, you know, gang members. There was only two federal prisons in the country that hold MS-thirteen, and I was at one of them. So, I mean, there's no reason why I should be walking a prison yard with those kind of inmates. Um, I should have been at a, probably a low, if not, if not a camp, you know, that's where like your white collar crime goes as to like a camp. And, um, in the scheme of things, I mean, like you said, we, majority of us, including me walked in through an open front door and, uh, that was about the extent of what we did. So, um, Were they moving you around? I've heard of several people who were cuffed and put into these inhumane restraints as they moved them across the country. Were you in that situation? Yeah, I did that. Again, I did that probably nine times or no, a little bit more than that. I did that nine times just switching jails while I was going through the proceedings. And then once you actually make it to federal prison, they don't ship you around too much. But I still made it to two different federal prisons over a two-year span. So it was a lot, you know, and that's exactly what they do. They shackle you from head to toe. And they just parade you around, and there's marshals, and it's literally con air is what it is. A lot of times you have to get in these vans that drive for hours to an airport, and then you're sitting outside in the cold. um in shackles just waiting for them to arrange everybody because you got you'll have ten buses going to different facilities you'll have a plane maybe even two planes loading people up like it's a it's a whole process it's like a factory line almost wow well yeah just keep telling people about about what happened to you because I think they need to hear your whole story and what know more about what prison was like and uh kind of interesting that that you were in with the ms-thirteen gangs how how was that I mean to be honest like ironically most of them left me alone they actually somehow respected me for for being there that day uh which is a weird thing but I mean the kind of guys I was around like I mean for instance I worked in the kitchen for about a year at Beckley and I was in there with the MS-thirteen guy that worked in the kitchen too and this guy was in prison for life for chopping up and disposing of two bodies and it's just like how do I end up next to a guy like that? it's just again it goes back to the classifications in the way they did us but it's just I mean I was on a very gang ran yard there was ms-thirteen there were bloods there were crips there was I mean everything you could think of um there was I mean aryan nation I mean there was pretty much everything and Stuff would happen all the time. I mean, consistently people got stabbed. People got murdered while I was there. People got raped while I was there. A lot of crazy stuff happened in there. I mean, it was very drug ridden. People were dropping drugs over in drones. Oh, you're kidding me. Oh, yeah. I mean, that's how there was two ways to get drugs in there. One of them was dropping them over in drones. The other way was through visitation. where typically visitation, the way it would work is somebody would bring something in and then the inmate would swallow it and they would go back to their cell. And I don't know what the trick was because I don't really know how they did it, but there was something that they took that would make them throw it back up. Oh, my goodness. And if they didn't throw it back up, well, you can take a wild guess at how it comes out the other way. Yeah. Wow. Yeah. So, I mean, that was I mean, that was the normal in there. So I get like I had so much to talk about prison that like, again, my books got frickin thirty pages of it, at least because it's just so I mean, it was my day to day for so long. I mean, I've been out, I guess now a little over forty five days and like my adjustment has been like very slow, to say the least. How are you coping with it? And what is the biggest thing that has helped you the most? And what does that process of coming out of prison look like? Um, like when I first came out, I was having a very hard time sleeping. And I mean, like, I didn't sleep at all for probably two and a half weeks, like at all. I, there was nothing I could take to make me go to sleep. It just, I would just lay there in the bed. And I mean, not for nothing, my bed's pretty comfortable and it's way better than the one in prison. So that wasn't the problem. And it's just like, cause your mind's racing and, um, yeah. You wake up in the middle of the night when you do fall asleep for a few minutes. And when you initially wake up, you're not really coherent. And you almost think you're still in prison. And it freaks you out. So I went through that for over a month, really. And I'm sleeping better now. I think the thing that's helped me cope with it better than anything else is... Again, the prison I was at was very violent, so we didn't have weights or anything like that. And before prison, I was a bodybuilder. I lost sixty pounds while I was in prison. And so the first thing I wanted to do when I got out was, you know, go back to the gym and get back into the gym. And and that's kind of been my therapy more than anything else. I think I walked out of prison at one ninety two and I'm like, I'm already back up to two hundred fifteen pounds after not even two months. And that's just for me going to the gym two hours a day and eating right and just, you know, trying to stay focused. So, I mean, that's been my therapy more than anything else. I mean, that was kind of my therapy even before prison. So, I mean, that's been my coping mechanism. Well, I just really am so curious as to what went on there. You know, I mean, most of us can't even relate to the experience that you had. And just so you know, you had so many supporters that were out there, you know, just praying for you guys and, you know, really never stopping talking. I mean, we were all talking about this and not going to let this rest forever. So, you know, the amount of love that was poured out towards you and all of the people who had this crime committed against you, I mean, this is a crime and you were absolutely a, a, uh, involved in this, a crime perpetrated by our federal government. There's no two ways about it. So, um, uh, I hope that you didn't feel totally alone. I would expect that it would be very hard not to feel alone and cope, but, uh, when you were in there, how did you cope? Well, I mean, I coped in there, I guess the same way, you know, I, I worked out in there too, but I mean, all I could do is really a bunch of pushups and stuff like that. I just, you know, you, you have to have a routine in there. Um, we had, we were able to purchase tablets off of the commissary that were like hundred and thirty dollars or something. And you could go on rent movies for five dollars. So like a lot of times at night when we would go in, we got locked in at eight thirty at night, which is pretty early in the scheme of things. And I would typically always go and get a movie right before I went in. And that was kind of my zone out part because, you know, I could go in my cell. The lights are off. I got a tablet there. I mean, I could almost pretend I'm sitting there watching an iPhone, you know, and watching a movie and kind of just like separate myself from the prison for a minute. So, I mean, that was it was that. And then I was able to put music on the tablet, too. So that was a big thing for me. I would listen to music like throughout the day, which also was an expensive thing, too, because you paid. I think it was like a dollar seventy a song. And I mean, I think I had four hundred fifty songs on my tablet. So, I mean, you can do the math. I mean, it adds up, but it's just it was the best way for me to cope. um with the situation and kind of like take me out of the reality a little bit the other way is I worked in the kitchen for about a year and um that just kind of you know kept me busy it made the days go by quicker typically it also gave me access to technically eating a little bit better in there and getting access to some other food so I mean there was some perks of that um So it's just I mean, it's a lot. But I mean, you kind of like no matter how bad it is, you're going to adjust to your situation and your circumstances. And it just becomes the new norm, which is why I had such a hard time, you know, getting out of prison, because at the end of the day, obviously, this is way better. This is what I wanted the whole time. I never should have been there. But when you're stuck in a situation like that and you just get used to it, I mean, you come out to a better state. It's not about better. It's about different. And that's the adjustment problem. So, and I mean, you have a little bit of stage fright a little bit. You know, you're worried that something's going to happen. They're going to send you back. I mean, you hear about all these J-Sixers that are, you know, they're trying to send back and, you know, things happening to them and stuff like that. So it's just like, You know, it makes me like not want to go out too much, makes me not want to be doing too much because I just, you never know how it's going to go. I don't live, I live in a very liberal area. I'm moving in a few weeks because it's that bad that I can't, you know, it's so uncomfortable that I can't do it. So I'm moving to the beach, a very red beach on top of that. So yeah. that you know I need to be somewhere where I'm accepted and you know more celebrated than anything else I mean we just went through hell and I mean look half the country thinks that we should be lined up and shot you know but the other half of the country you know they know what we went through and they know that we were hostages and you know they they give us a lot of respect for it so I would like to allege that most of the people that think that you should be lined up and shot are probably paid provocateurs by, you know, Act Blue has come out and some of these other nonsense organizations that are paying for disruption and chaos in the United States of America. I would say most people that I know have a very, in fact, I don't even know anybody that doesn't have a favorable view on the J-Sixers as someone who's you know, people that actually are heroes in their own right for standing for something, regardless of what the consequences are. And so there's so many people that just admire and not only accept you guys, but admire you, feel bad for it, but also admire you for standing tough and, you know, just for what you went through because of, you know, because of your patriotism, really. And so, not that it's going to make anything any better, but you've got a lot of friends, a lot of friends. And we see that. I mean, that was one of the things that I would say in prison too, is that there were different J-Six communities on the street that we were talking to through emails and they would check on us. And there was Patriot Mail Project that had it set up where people could send us mail. And I mean, I would get, I get twenty letters a week. um pretty much consistently throughout my time in prison and I mean you know these were very inspirational letters and I mean that was a lot of what also helped me get through I read a lot of books when I was in there um typically history Bill O'Reilly does this killing series and I think it's got like twenty something books. I read through every single one of them and it's about different presidents and different things along those lines. So, you know, I tried to actually build some knowledge up while I was in there and not completely waste my time because I was going to be stuck there no matter what. So I might as well actually get something out of it. So what else would you like to tell everybody about your experience? You know, then now going forward, I mean, it's one of those things where, you know, I don't regret anything that I did on that day. I don't, I don't regret that day. I don't regret my beliefs. I don't regret my views, which is why I got so much time. Um, Because I stood up and I even at sentencing, I told them I still believe the election was stolen and that I actually told him I would do it again. They didn't like that. So that's that's why they hit me over the head with fifty five months, which was the most time for anybody for that one single charge. But I just really didn't care. I wasn't going to drop my values or my morals. just to appease them. And I definitely wasn't going to lie. You know, I did believe the election. I still I do believe the election was stolen to this day, and that's not going to change. Nobody can argue that with me. And it's just it's not a it's not a good argument because I'm not going to let let off of it. So, yeah, I'm just trying to get back to a reality right now. I mean, one of the things that didn't really happen is, you know, we kind of most of us lost everything while we were in prison. And, you know, that's a big reason why I just dropped a book that's coming out on Fridays because I'm trying to get some footing again and trying to get back on my feet. Besides the fact of trying to get my story out there, I mean, I lost everything, you know. I mean, I came out with the gray sweats on my back that I bought from prison, you know, and some books. so you know I was doing relatively decent before all this happened and it's just like it all went it all went to hell um And I don't really know how to recap that or, you know, get back to normal. But I mean, I'm not getting any younger. I mean, like you said, I mean, I went in, I got charged at forty. I spent all my forties in the federal prison system so far. You know, I turned forty four this year. So, I mean, I'm, you know, still, well, I guess mid forties now. But, you know, still, I spent my forties in prison and. Not getting any younger. I got to recap, get back on my feet. I was a six-figure income individual before prison. So, I mean, the amount of money I lost just by going to prison, and that's assuming that I would have just kept doing the same thing I was doing. Yeah, I mean, it's a lot. It's a lot to take in. There's nothing like being forty-three years old and having nothing, really. What's your book called? What's the title of the book? It's called Trumped Up. Yeah, it's we just hit the publish button on Amazon last night and they say within seventy two hours that it comes out. So it should be out by Friday. I just have books sent to my house because I'm going to speak in Georgia in a week and a half at a GOP event down there. And I wanted to take some books with me, obviously. So. There we go here, I'm going to I've got a new toy up, so I'll see if I get that right. I do that correctly. It's something that's supposed to be on the screen. Yeah. It's rolling on the bottom. It says Josh Pruitt author trumped up by it on Amazon. Oh yeah, I do see it. Oh, that's cool. Yeah. I just, I've got some new tools now, so I like to help people that to find things. And if you have any links, if you, if you can text me the links on it, I'll put it on all my social media channels too, for you and see if people to jump, to jump on and, and get the, get the story out because people need to know what, the end game on tyranny looks like there. And, and what, if it could happen to you, it can happen to any, any one of us for speaking out the election in was stolen. There's no way there there's more evidence on that election being rigged, stolen, fraudulent, whatever you want to call it. It all applies that then any crime in the history of the world. I mean, because it wasn't one way that they cheated. It was in a myriad of ways. And, And it's unfortunate, but you're in the right by saying that. And besides that, you have the right to your opinion under the First Amendment. I mean, that's always been part of my argument, what you just said as well, is that it wasn't, yes, I think that there were fake votes put in. I mean, I don't think that at four o'clock in the morning that all these votes went in one direction. But it's not just about that. It's also about the way the media maneuvered things and, you know, silenced the right. I mean, all that was its own propaganda to steal an election. You know, I mean, I really kind of believe COVID was part of it, too. You know, I just there was so much going on that went in the direction of trying to steal that election. And the biggest thing, you know, well, I can't say I did anything because I couldn't vote this time. But what the other patriots did is you guys made it too big the rig, you know, and and that's what we had to do. You know, we had to make it to a point where they just, you know, it wasn't even close, right? You know, and the fact that they're even arguing now that it wasn't a mandate is just the most ridiculous thing ever. I mean, we won every swing state. I mean, it just, it's crazy, like, how the numbers went out. You know, we got the Poplar vote, which, when's the last time we got the Poplar vote? Like, twenty years ago or something? Right around there? You know, so, I mean, it just, and I'm hoping that we got a good, you know, I'm hoping at least twelve years. You know, I mean, I guess we're going to see. But, I mean, hopefully more than that. But I think we at least got twelve in us. I think through this process of learning the way it's supposed to work, not the way that it is working, and kicking all these people who basically are occupying our country. They're not in their pretended legislation. I mean, all of that stuff we're waking up to. Karen, do you have any questions or anything you want to comment to this? Yeah. I knew you would. Pardon me. I'm a little emotional at the moment because it just hit me. He said, you guys. And that's what it hit me. You guys voted. And there were a lot of people who were talking about the J Sixers. You know that because you're out and you're free. And there were a lot of people who voted for Trump for you. But what strikes me in this moment is that the one thing that you would have wanted to do from behind bars, you were not allowed to do because they took your freedom from you. They kidnapped you. They imprisoned you against your will and unlawfully. And they took your vote. That is the one thing that you could have done to help yourself because we relied on one man to help free you and others like you. The vote mattered for your freedom. And I don't want that to get lost in this moment because we're thinking about economics we're thinking about the children we're thinking about the future of the country but it mattered to the lives of certain americans who were innocent and did not get what they should have gotten which is due process and that's what I was talking about earlier and so it just it just struck me hearing you say You guys, because we were able to vote for the one guy who could help you out. And that's just that's so wrong in so many ways. And it was not lost on us that that this we were waiting. to pardon everybody. And then there was a little controversy about, well, does that mean that you have to accept guilt in order to receive the pardon and all of that? But I'm so glad that it worked out. But it's just... That is one of the biggest wrongs that this country faced. What you've gone through and to have your vote taken from you in that way. I mean, that's just... That's wrong. Also in the chat, I just wanted to point that for you and others like you, if you don't know much about it, please try looking into homeopathy as an answer to help you because it's really inexpensive. It's fairly readily available. The one that I mentioned is called Coffea. It's supposed to help. Um to quiet a busy mind as if you had too much coffee That's why it's called coffee. Yeah And there's a combination of those called Moondrops. It's just a brand name product, but it has a combination of homeopathic remedies and you can take that before you want to go to sleep. It has no medicinal quality to it. It just is supposed to help in a natural healing process. So there might be that rescue remedy might be actually another combo that can help people who have and anxieties and a difficult time. I'm not an expert, so I don't know. But if you talk to somebody else who has more knowledge than I do, I'm sure they can advise you on remedies that might work out better for you and help you during this adjustment time. I'm definitely going to look that up for sure, because I mean, it's probably definitely my anxiety and maybe even PTSD that's keeping me from sleeping. But just to reemphasize on what you were saying a minute ago, look, at the end of the day, as a Jay Sixer, and I think that I'm speaking for the mass majority of us, we are as grateful for you guys as we are for Trump, because at the end of the day, it's you guys vote that put Trump in a situation to pardon us. If it wasn't for you guys, he wouldn't have been where he needed to be to do it, you know, because if we would have lost, well, majority of us would be still sitting in a prison cell. And that's just the sad truth. Well, and that sticks with that whole thing is that when one of us is attacked, all of us is attacked and we've got to get that in, in our minds that, that one of the greatest things that we do is to protect each other and we protect those rights and we stand with each other. And that is a solemn duty that each one of us needs to really process and make part of our beings. And by the way, Uh, there's a Sherilyn also said that she's going to be ordering one of your books. So hopefully, hopefully you'll get, come on guys, put things in the chat here. I'm going to see if we can get more people to buy, to buy some of Josh's books here so that we can, we can help him out getting, getting, getting the world, uh, back to a right place. I mean, when, when somebody goes through trauma, you don't just say, yay, it's done and walk away. There's a long process there. And, uh, There's a long process and we need to be willing to stand with each other until we finish the race. That was my concern with President Trump when he got in. It's like, okay, he's in. Now, is everybody going to go back home and get themselves a can of root beer and sit there and go back to whatever it is that they do during the day? Are we going to stay politically active and be watchful? on what everyone's doing. Even as we were talking about President Trump, good people can get in office and we need to help them. We have to help them because they may be getting bad advice by somebody around them, even if their hearts are good and they mean to do the right thing. And make sure that this never happens again. And I think if this ever happened again to the degree that it did, you would have the entire country That would be like, hold the phone. You people are out of line and we're done with this right now. And watch the lawsuit start flying because we're getting more educated on how to deal with this as well as, you know, just raw holding them accountable. I mean, I also like I believe in a lot of the J-Sixers. I believe some of them should run for office. Not me. I'm not really office material. But, you know, some of these guys are, you know, I definitely want to be on the political side of stuff. But, you know, not not to that extent. You know, I don't really look the part. And and that's OK. What is OK? I'm going to correct you. I'm going to go ahead and correct you in that. Right. So you do look the part because you're an American. Amen. Amen. That's all you have to be. And you went through a trauma that you can talk to things in ways that nobody else can frame it and that hasn't experienced it. The part that's in office right now is criminal. We don't want to look like that. We want to be honest and with transparency and authenticity, which you have. You're qualified, okay? And people would come along and help you if you chose to do that. I'm not saying you have to, I'm not putting pressure on you, but I want you to never think lesser of yourself than any other ones of us because we're all the same. I truthfully have not like completely blocked it out. You know, if the right circumstance, I probably would, but it would have to literally be the right circumstance. There may come a day. There may come, you know, Karen the River is always talking about find your role to play. And right now, your role to play might be sharing your experience so that this doesn't happen again. You, by sharing today, I've been watching, I've been on some of those shows. I've heard Donna's shows where she's interviewed J-Sixers. And they're always really inspiring. Yeah. But what you just did by by using that phrase, you guys, you touched my you touched me. You pricked my heart in a way that nobody else had. And what it did was it challenged me to think of what has happened from a little bit different perspective. And guess what Karen River is going to be doing today? I'm going to be posting about that so that other people who maybe didn't see that or hear that, maybe they'll turn to it. Maybe they'll just get it from my post. That word is getting out. And when I talk about due process, I haven't been to prison, but I've experienced a terrible end of that. Even within the assembly is where I'm coming from. I don't care. Guys, that assembly experience was not a positive one for me in the end. I experienced, I saw firsthand people who were supposed to know what due process was not doing it. And I was, sometimes I felt like a lone voice talking about it. And I was able to encourage some other people to see it the way I did. Due process is vital for this country. You didn't get it. And if we don't recognize that, acknowledge it and really, really comprehend what it means and how important it is, we're not going to stand up for it in the future. There are people like you who inspire that lesson more than a history book. And so your role to play may be sharing that. This is what I didn't get. This is what, The documents say I should. The Constitution, the amendment, the articles, the foundation of this country, as you're reading in your history books, is not what you got. By sharing your story of the alternate view, that's the comparing contrast we need to prevent it from happening in the future. But we've got to have that personal connection. Look into the hearts of people who have been victims and people who stood up for you and people who voted for you. That carries on through generations more than something that's just on paper, too. That may be where your role is. And another few years from now, perhaps. that role may shift for you where you are going to be inspired to be more educated. As you learned in prison, in your experience, you may continue that road and get to the point where, like Donna has, She has been educated and educated herself in the last few years. If she runs for governor, she will be a better governor in the next term than she could have been in the previous. And you may be one of those people that that goes in that direction. And when you're ready, you may be the guy. Regardless of what you look like, how old you are, what religion you are, what gender you are, you may be that guy that is perfect for the role in a specific time. I yield. And I mean, I can I appreciate that, first of all, but I can I can agree with that. And as far as the due process part, I mean, we got the opposite of due process. We got railroaded. Yes. And the way that went down is you got to understand, like the the liberals in D.C., it's like ninety eight percent. It's something ridiculous between ninety five and ninety eight percent. So the idea of going to trial amongst your peers, it wasn't a thing. It was going to be amongst their peers, right? and their conviction rate in the feds is already high but with us it was a hundred percent so there was no there was no beating it and when you're somebody that's never been locked up before and they're threatening you with decades in prison I mean what do you do I mean I I had a I well I had two kids you know I have a now they're almost twelve and almost fourteen And I haven't talked to my kids in over three years. Wow. And they stole that time from you. Yeah. And I can't give that back. I mean, my kids went from kids to teenagers over my prison term. Now, I still have not talked to them since I got out of prison because, not because I don't want to, but their mom is, well, for lack of better terms, a crazy liberal. And I mean, literally, like we have been broken up for about two years before January six happened. And she was taking my kids like BLM rallies and stuff. Oh, man. Yeah. I mean, like just completely flipping the script. And so, yeah, she let me stop talking to him. But the worst part, well, not the worst part, but another bad part is they don't even know where I went. I had them at my house pretty much every other or every weekend, just depending on my schedule. And it went from that to them not seeing me. And she didn't tell them anything. They really think that I just disappeared and abandoned them. So, you know, and for the last forty five days, I mean, I have her phone number. I message her like she responds sometimes. Sometimes she doesn't. And I know, you know, she says, well, you know, I want to let you talk to him, but I got to maybe have them talk to a counselor or something first. Or look, at the end of the day, the truth is. She knows that the second they talk to me that they're going to find out that she lied to them and they're going to be mad at her. And that's what she's trying to, you know, trying to hide from. I mean, it has nothing to do with anything else. It's a guilt thing. What they took from you is just... Absolutely unspeakable. I'm so sorry. All of us, I'm sure, are just deeply saddened by this. And there's one gal in the chat that said, I'd vote for a J-Sixer over anyone. And it's not just the material things taken from you, Josh. It's part of what makes you human and American. And somebody else says, I have tears. We've got several people that says they're all crying about this right now. And just heartbroken for what happened to you. And you know, I have, I can't, there's no words that we can say to make this better, even though we want to, you know? Well, it's like what you just touched on. I mean, material stuff is material stuff. It can be regained. What cannot be regained is at the end of the day, thirty years from now, my kids are still going to look back and be like, remember that time you left us for years when we were kids? I think you're going to get it figured out. I really do, Josh. I don't mean to say this flippantly, but I'm a pretty faith-based person, and I'm an unapologetic Christian. And I really do believe that those times in our lives and those hard things, the horrible things that happen to us, that God can redeem even those things and make it right. And sometimes, and I can talk about this from personal experience, that there's a lot of things I don't talk about publicly, but things that happened when I was younger, tragic, tragic things that, you know, you go through a period of time of mourning. trying to deal with it, put it in perspective. And why did this happen? And how could this have happened? It tried to make sense of it. And there's no way to justify when evil decides to target you. Evil is just evil. There's no explaining it away. There's no way to come to terms with it other than to say, guess what? I'm not going to let that define me. I'm not going to be defined or made into a victim because something very evil happened to me and the people around me. And what I found through this whole exercise, because I was mad for a lot of years, I was furious. And I, you know, over, over what had transpired. And all of a sudden you break through the fog and I broke through the fog and Turning to God, I broke through the fog. I mean, fully turning to him and turning it all over to him. And all of a sudden, I saw that it was a gift that I couldn't have gotten any other way. Not one that I would wish on my worst enemy. And that's the truth. But the hardships or the things that happened, and it was pretty bad. It really was. I just don't talk about it. And to be able to look at it now and say, wow, This made me one tough MFR. And when things happen around me, it killed my ability to feel fear. Yeah. I mean, so like other things. So I'm just, I'm just encouraging you to tell you that, that perhaps God will use this in ways that you can never ever see, but he can redeem those years with your children. It may not be the exact one, but the richness that you have afterwards, God can redeem that and give you those years back. He's not bound by time. And I definitely believe that. And I'm, I'm, very much a Christian. And, you know, somebody actually asked me a question yesterday. They asked me, what was the difference before prison and after prison about me and how I believe in a Christian? And it gave me more faith. What I would say is I was a Christian. I believed in God before prison. But throughout prison, I became, I got a relationship with God. Can you explain that to us? I just... I read the Bible while I was in there. I just became more in depth. I became, you know, I felt like he, you know, carried me through it. So, you know, the two things that got me through prison without losing my mind completely was God and the hope of my kids. I mean, it was those two things that really, you know, picked me up and kept me going. I want to also add that your ex, she's also a victim of this and she may be a liberal. She may have the wrong opinions about things from our perspective. Um, but she was also part of that brainwashing too. Yeah. And, and, Like here we are talking about christianity. We believe that that god jesus jesus died for everybody We're all children of god and what she needs to understand is okay So she made a mistake with how she handled her children in that decision um, but she needs to just own up to it and if she does Those kids are going to be even more powerful growing up because they can say hey mom made a mistake But at least she admitted it to us um I know that my parents were really concerned about their granddaughter because her parents, the granddaughter's parents, my brother and sister-in-law went through a divorce and they didn't treat each other really well. But what they did do is they allowed the granddaughter to visit my parents regularly. And they did a really good job at, um, not playing sides, you know? And one of the things that they believed in was one of these days, she's going to grow up and she's going to recognize the behavior of her mother through that and how it was not appropriate. And she did, she grew up now she's a mom and she's doing really well at that because she, when she was old enough to recognize what had happened when she was a child and she was able to gain that perspective. Your kids know your love. They had enough of that before you went in. They're not going to forget that. They're going to remember that. They're going to know you did not abandon them. And they're going to be, I, like Donna, believe that they're going to be fine. And I'm glad that you have the hope of that. I think continue to pursue that with kindness. And I think you'll get there. I do have the hope. One hundred percent. I mean, the one thing about what I would say about their mom is that, I mean, she's a liberal, so she definitely feels like a victim. The problem is she doesn't know who the real villain is and she's making it out to be me instead of the disgusting Democrats that put me where I was. And, you know, I wish that she could see it for what it is, as opposed to whatever she's been brainwashed into thinking. Yeah, there's a good deal of brainwashing going on. And unfortunately, they'll capture useful idiots based on, you know, it's so odd. My husband was in a coffee shop this week on the way to go into the office. And there was, he said, there's this this gal, she couldn't have been four foot ten. And she was sitting there at the cash register talking about how all the evils in the world came from men and, you know, what a victim women is. And he's just sitting there and she's, you know, four foot ten and she's teaching fencing. And he was laughing because he's like, does she realize that I could literally just by the reach of my body size could literally out fence her on any day, any time you wear just because of my size. And, um, The brainwashing and the fear that people have and the emotions that they have been programmed into them has made people very unstable and not able to make logical, sane, rational decisions. I'm not, I'm not cutting them any slack because we still have to think on our own, but the, the, the cards were stacked against the United States of America since the Marxists have been working this country over for, for decades. Right. And so I kind of feel sorry for them in a way, but I, you know, and I pity, I pity them for the amount of fear and darkness that they actually hold in their souls, you know, and, uh, you know, I'm, I don't know. It's just too bad, but bring on the toxic masculinity is all I have to say. And I think we need to get out there and start, you know, hauling tail on some of these people that are doing the wrong thing that are threatening our families and the United States. I, I, I don't know, but hopefully she'll come through and see the life. There's enough people talking about it. And you know what, as our job, and I'm going to charge all the women out there that are out there that are real women, not little, you know, puny snowflake pieces of crap that want to be the victim at every single turn and dance on their little six-year-old stage of look at me, look at me now. It's our job to step in and tell them to cut this crap out. When you see a woman that's based or a girl, a woman parading or a girl parading as a woman, not a real woman, throwing this propaganda crap out against men or playing the victim card, call them out. and tell them to knock it off. The person who feels the most or is the most, you know, victimed in the, you know, I'm going to make it into a verb, victim in our society is not the winner. The winner is the one that stands bravely under all circumstances and doesn't get sucked into this to become part of the problem. So there you go, guys. Let's stand forward and and address this. Lots of comments in the chat this morning. I got to tell you, there's a lot of people who are really, really not okay with this. I want to throw out there before you do that, if I may, just real quick. She may never come around, and I think it's important to be okay with that because you can't take that upon yourself to worry about her And that way, like, your kids are going to work out okay, and it'll be their choice to some degree. They're going to see two different sides of this story. And you can't control that. You can't control her. And so part of the process moving forward is to just kind of be okay with watching her develop or not. And she may shift gears in time, but I think that's part of the healing process that our nation is going to have to go through is recognizing that there are some people who are never going to understand And that's a byproduct of this psyop that we've been under for generations. We're going to have to let that go and let God control some of the things that we just can't. And as far as the way that she feels, I could kind of care less as long as I can see my kids. I'm uninterested in her beliefs. I kind of feel like I should just send a book to her house. And, uh, you know, just see how that goes and hope, hopefully, hopefully it gets there when she's not there. And my kids are home. That could be fun. Uh, Denise says I have tears with care and the entire interview is relatable to our vets. Some similar scars, sorrows, anxiety, et cetera. Sherilyn said, Karen brought tears to my eyes too. Thank you, Donna, for your support of the Jay Sixers and having them on your show. I had a Jay Sixers on for over three months. Uh, every weekday we were on for devoted one to two hours, sometimes more than that a day for the Jay Sixers to tell their story. So you're in a place where everyone here is very, very, uh, friendly and well-educated on the subject. Um, Denise says, my dad sat me down in my late teens and told me what happened between himself and his father. There's a way to approach your children. maybe take the two teens with you to go to a counselor, a good one that deals with the vets, police responders, et cetera. And a gray bearded fedora hair. The appellate court seemed to be recognizing due process was violated for J six defendants and many appealing their convictions are successfully overturned. So the United States is, is turning around and, and I think we're, I think we're turning around into a good, into a, into a better, a better, uh, process than what happened at J six and before Sean, do you have anything you want to say? Yeah. You know, um, all this, you know, one, one of the things that we can learn from this is this travesty, uh, can be turned into trial. Um, you know, uh, you know, uh, somebody who's, uh, you know, worked in the, uh, security enforcement side of things, you know, um, we've always been focused on is de-escalating situations, but with with going through that kind of an experience you know it's it's one that's priceless where you have you develop the personal relationship with god on such a level that uh couldn't be attained uh you know just in an everyday normal life um but it's a really great opportunity to you know to share your faith with other people as well uh you know and but I think that the bigger picture is this you know this country has been without God in the picture for so long and we're seeing the results of that you know um you know from not having the conversations with our kids at the table to you know the the godless uh acts of politicians you know in Washington D.C and right now you know we we've got a nation that is desperately in need of God in so many different ways you know um and You know, this is, you know, for somebody like yourself to share the story, and this is pretty monumental. I mean, this is definitely something that everybody needs to listen to. They need to hear this because, you know, again, just like Karen was saying, you know, if this could happen to you, this can happen to anybody. It doesn't matter whether you're a conservative or a liberal. You know and due process is very very important That's the foundation of our nation and without all without the due process without having God in our lives to give this direction you know, this is this is all civilizations come to an end because There's there's no There's just no there's no reconciliation and and and anything and so I You know, I've always believed that, you know, your story is going to inspire millions. I don't know what God has in store for you, but I do know that you have a purpose and a plan in your life. You know, your testimony is pretty monumental for all J-Sixers. And I have a very strong, firm belief that you guys are going to become the leaders of our nation uh down the road here and uh we're gonna see some some big changes but in the meantime just you know uh just know that you know we're gonna continue to to support you guys and in every capacity that we can because um again you know this happened to you guys this could happen to anybody so we want to make sure that this never happens again to anyone um having their due process violating like this and um you know the weaponization of you know a two-tiered justice system it's just it's really abhorrent you know and um so I guess that's you know that's all I I wanted to share This is really beautiful. And I hope you're seeing it, Josh, because you're probably seeing this everywhere. It's everybody wants to speak from their heart to make it better. And nobody knows what to do. So everybody wants to step in and think, it's going to be okay. It's going to be okay. There's good that's going to come out of this. And try to, even though there's nothing we can do, With our words, everybody cares and just wants to make this better. So I hope you feel that flood of love and support around you because God's going to come to your rescue and all of us will come to support you and all the Day Sixers too. You're not going to have your back turned on you again. It won't happen again. And, you know, it's a beautiful thing. I definitely appreciate all the love from everybody. And it definitely helps me get through my days. And again, it's been a process since I've gotten out of prison. But I'm kind of falling back into life again, which makes me want to be even more outspoken. So I did the book. But I'm also going to be on VOP USA Radio on my own podcast. And that's going to drop here in the next few weeks, too. So I plan on being more outspoken, you know. And the reason why I wanted to get on that platform is just because just like this platform is I can say what I want, you know. And I can be straight up and not like TikTok where I got to change words, you know. And like if you even say J-Six on there, like I'm getting my stuff shut down. It's just I mean, it's insane. We should have free platforms. Where we can speak, you know, so anything you want here. So if there's anything else that you want to say to put out to the world, why don't you just go ahead and say that now? And then I always end with a prayer. And so go ahead and say whatever it is that you want to say. The floor is yours. I mean, I just want to thank everybody. You know, I appreciate coming on here. And, you know, somebody that went to prison and got, you know, prosecuted for nothing. I'm not going to lie. I want some I want some get back, you know. But, you know, I'd like to see Democrats in shackles just like they had me in shackles, specifically the ones that were responsible for putting me in them. You know, so I'm hoping that Cash and the rest of them, Bond, you know, I hope they go after him. I really do. They deserve to at least be out of government. You know, they definitely don't deserve to be on our government anymore. Really, that's about it. You know, I don't, you know. I think they need to be on the first plane to Gitmo and be tried for treason, all of them. Absolutely. With the accompanying punishment that goes with a short drop and sudden stop. That's what I think needs to happen to these people. Yeah. They have done irreparable damage to the nation and to people's lives, and they can never be entrusted with it ever again. So we'll let God deal with them. We'll just make the appointment. Some of them pushed for it, but some of them allowed it. And that's where, again, the Republicans are not free and clear of this. That's true. Marjorie Taylor Greene could have stopped this, and she didn't. All of them sat there and talked platitudes, but they didn't do anything. And that's, I think, one of my biggest gripes. It's like you can talk and talk and talk, but unless you're willing to do something, the words don't matter at this point in time. Anybody can sit there and say whatever they want. And so there's the parting words right there. Get off your sorry butts and do something. to the people in office, and honestly, to all of us. We need to be doing something. So anyhow, let's end this with a prayer. Dear Heavenly Father, thank you so much for Josh, for all the J-Sixers, for Sean and for Karen, and for the wisdom of everyone who's willing to come forward. and and share what they know their thoughts or ideas and especially their walk and their faith with you we love you so much you can get us through anything I pray for josh's ex-wife and his children I ask that you would send them people to talk to them and also take the scales off of their eyes and all of the people who have been programmed with this false narrative to to to to humble themselves a little bit and to be willing to listen to all sides because we've been taught that there's truth in one side or truth on the other, but the only truth is on the outside of that, it rests with you. And we ask you to help us walk through this process of deprogramming and becoming closer to you, becoming more like you. We ask for complete and utter redemption of all the time that was lost and while Josh was in prison, and that you would turn this into a fertile garden for growth, for himself, for inspiration, for a new path, and for the people around him, and that they would be filled with joy knowing that you were with them there, you're with them now, and you'll never leave them nor forsake them. that every single one of us is walking and has a choice to walk with you. Every single day that you lead us through terrible things, you bring us to things that are joyful, that are wonderful, that we can enjoy, but also those things that help us to grow that are difficult. And the outcome of that, we lay at your feet, knowing that you're good all the time. You're always good. And whatever the path is that you put before us, We ask that you give us the feet to walk the path, whether it's easy or it's rough, because we love you. This is your sandbox. And we're willing to do whatever it is that you ask us to do. Thank you so much for everyone out there. If there's anybody that's feeling badly, I ask that you would send them healing mercies. I ask that you would give people the joy in seeing what's going on around us, even though it may not make sense to us. We don't need to know what the future is. We just need to know you and know that it's in your hands and that it's going to go in a good direction. You've been a great friend to us, and we want to be a friend to you. Peace to everyone that's here today. Comfort to all those who are sad or confused. And your presence with us all as we walk forward into a bright future, which you are the author of. In Jesus Christ's precious name we pray. Amen. So guys, well, thanks all for being here. And we go to that part of the show, boys and girls with meaning, meaning go to brand new word for governor.com because I'm the best. And I can see there was ever not going to be the United States of America. And I'd like to have a discussion with the rightful president of the United States, president Donald J. Trump, who was the rightful president in this day. And we want to thank him, uh, president Trump for everything you've done for all the good six years. for the pardons and for standing with everyday Americans who are abused, neglected, tortured by this horrible system that's in place. And we also thank you for bringing the justice around that's going to happen in this nation, and I believe it's going to happen. We thank you, President Trump, so much for that. And all the Americans that are out there that have stood without wavering, thank you so much. We stand together as Americans, and with that said, God bless you all. God bless all of you who you love. God bless America as we stand together. Make it a great day. Lots and lots of opportunities to do the right thing today. You know, call the snowflakes out. There's the marketing orders for today. Call them out. Tell them to knock it off and grow up a little bit. So at any rate, have a great day. I'm going to be taking off tomorrow and Friday again. I have a couple of investigations that I'm involved in, and there's some work that needs to be done because I'm doing things. And so not just here, but elsewhere. So we'll be seeing you on Monday. Have a great week and a great weekend. We'll talk to you later. Bye.
