Good morning and welcome to Brandenburg News Network. I am Donna Brandenburg. And it's the seventh day of April, twenty twenty six. Welcome to the show today. We start out with John Tater with Lawful Defense. And then we go to pro se Mike at ten o'clock. We'll see if he's if he was put in jail again. I just got out of jail last week. So that was a kind of an interesting and interesting start. Sometimes you poke the bear a little bit just to get some. motion in a good in a direction and i think he's good at that and then at eleven o'clock dawn beady and we're gonna be talking about again spiritual things god in politics but not just god in politics god in our world and what that you know what a departure we've had from that and the way people act towards each other it's it's kind of a shame but i'm seeing some things that are moving in the right direction so i'm gonna bring john on a minute we'll talk ronnie john how you doing I'm doing good. Good. So last night we had another USTPM, the United States or the US Taxpayers Party meeting, which I'm the chairman of. And we had one of our meetings last night. We're getting ready for an SEC meeting next week, Monday. And we're working on a county. We're working on everything people need to start a county in the state of Michigan. So we've been working very hard on this. There's a lot of people that that have been involved in the process and it's going very well. We're having a good time on Monday nights. So we get together and we talk and it is very productive. Everyone is involved in it. I think it's really surprising to people that it's not normal politics. So if anybody wants to join or join in the discussion or just watch and see what we're doing, you can always call me. Everybody knows what my number is. Please text first because I get a lot of calls and such and I'm more likely to actually respond in a text just because it's a little quicker and a little easier for me. So here, let me put that up a minute. But at any rate, I'm having a good time with that. And I really do want to find this a minute to put up and I'll find it a second, I guess. Ta-da, here we go. And so we're having a really good time with that, and we're getting ready to launch our new website, and it's really amazing. It's a workhorse, so integrated. And so it has the counties in it. It has information in it. It has our platform in it and all that sort of thing. So that should be up within about, I don't know, I'm going to say maybe a week and a half. We'll have our new website up, which is going to be really exciting. So anyhow, a lot of fun. You should join us sometime, John. Yeah, and I got nothing else to do, so I'll come and join you. You're part of the taxpayers' party, so we're trying to get good candidates to run for office so that we can get rid of some of the corruption as well as the people. You ever notice how they rerun people in the major parties? It's like they've created celebrity status of these people, and they just rerun them again because they've got name recognition. But it's kind of like same old, same old for the uniparty and such. So I think it's going to be pretty interesting. And I've got bread in the oven that I'm going to have to take out in a minute. So I'm going to duck out just one second. I can hear you, but I'm going to get my bread out of the oven. So what say you this morning? What say me this morning? Yeah, what say you? I can hear you. So there you go. Be nice. Well, my biggest... complaint about what's going on in the society today is that a lot of people come up with stories there's tons of stories out there uh the the true battle that we have to be fighting right now is for the republic we have everything else is a distraction i mean everything else is a distraction If you understand the Republic and understand what the Republic is all about and the laws that govern the Republic, the Constitution, you understand the Constitution, you understand Norton versus Shelby County, then you will be much more ahead of the game than if you listen to a lot of the patriots out there that are spewing all kinds of ideas and thoughts that have really nothing to do with reality. They are distractions. I just had somebody text me a message about this. Eighteen percent of what the the judges are supposedly making on speeding tickets. I don't really know that. I don't really care about that. All I care about is not feeding the bear to begin with. So and I know how to fight the tickets, so I don't get the tickets. And so I don't get the the the the fines and fees to pay for. Because I know how to fight the tickets. So that's what you need to do. You need to stop feeding the animal, stop feeding the bear. The other problem is, for example, the income tax thing. It's great to pay your income taxes so Obama can send one and a half a billion dollars to Iran to build a nuclear program and develop terrorists so we can have the American soldiers go to Iran and get killed over this. And this is a President of our country, supposedly. He's a fake president. He was always fake. He was never allowed to become president in the first place, but the Democrats put him there and the Democrats could have stopped it, but the Democrats didn't want to because he's there to destroy the country. And if people don't get that by this point in time and don't understand the history of what's going on, the biggest problem that we have as citizens in this country is we keep giving the money and as Joyce Riley, great radio host of the past, who's no longer with us, said, we are berating the rope to hang ourselves. And that's exactly what we're doing in many cases. People go out and they go speeding five miles over the speed limit, ten miles over the speed limit. They get a ticket and they pay the fee. Why? Because they don't want to learn. They don't want to go to court. They don't want to face this big boogeyman in the black robe uh whatever the reason is you and so you stay in your little shell and you play the game and you feed the bear and the bear is what's killing us because we are giving them the rope to hang ourselves and we got to stop that we got and the only way to do that is to start learning so if there is such a thing as an eighteen percent money system going to the judges in retirement. Hey, let's point it out. Let's bring it out into the open. Let's make it public. Let's not just make it a part of the Patriot story, such as the SESCA-A trust and the birth certificate. I was down that road with the birth certificate. I was down that road with the SESCA-A trust. None of that works. I mean, I tried all of those methods. I went through- I did the bond, you know, the surety bond thing. I looked into that too. And they've got it so rigged. It's actually correct. But the thing of it is, is they put things in place in order to stop anybody from doing it the way it should be done because they're doing like umbrella policies or something. So there is no bond, but if it was running the way it was intended to- it would actually work. But that's the problem. It's like, we'll get the information on this and they justify it by rigging the law. And that's my biggest thing right there. So whose problem is that? It's all of their problem because the legislature is responsible for it. They're supposed to be making the laws and such, but we have so much bloat in government that they hide things from each other. So like for me, I like to look into these things. I really do. But there's usually where there's smoke, there's fire. You know, it's in their best interest to keep the system running. You bet it is. Because they're lining their pockets. You've got people that are in, once they get in, elected or picked in or put in a position, they never leave. And so they make money on top of money on top of money. They get retirements from one position. being a representative, then they become a senator and they get retirements from that, and then they become a governor and they get retirements from that. And it's a never-ending battle. So they don't want to destroy the system that they're living in, but it's all fake. Well, the other thing is they've done is they've overlaid, they've turned everything into commerce. So, for example, Byron Township is a corporation. They have an EIN number. Even though they say unincorporated, no, all you got to do is find the EIN numbers, and you can see that these townships... It's not the corporation. It's not the problem. The corporation is not the problem. Well, it kind of is because it gets into a different part of the law. So because they are for profit, they do all of these different projects. I mean, I could sit here and talk for six weeks about what's happened straight out in Byron Township. and why what they're doing is wrong. They ended up giving fake information to the engineer who gets a fake permit that justifies something on bad information, and they just roll with it. And a lot of it has to do like on that level with development. It's all about growing bigger, bigger, and bigger. And they're all involved in it. All of them are. Every single system out there has got that same thing running behind the scenes. So we look at like the symptoms of it, but there's an underlying structure to the entirety of it that is set up to grow itself. It's like the hungry. What is it that that plant that used to eat everything around it? I don't remember. It was in the I was a movie at one time, but they they eat everything around it, consume in order to get bigger and bigger and bigger. And our rights diminish constantly. in an inverse relationship to that. It's unbelievable. But I understand what you're saying. We've got a lot of misinformation out there. Let's stop it right here, because the people of the county, of Byron Township, of Wayne County, of all of the other counties that are there, are the most powerful people. We have the power. But we don't exercise it because we don't know the law. We don't exercise it because we're ignorant. We don't exercise it because we're lazy. And in the fact of Byron Township, you had this water issue where not only your well went dry, but a hundred others. Are they behind you? Are they coming to your place and saying, let's do something about it? No, and that's exactly, you're exactly right. It's like when all of this stuff, when they were destroying six hundred and eighty acres of wetlands here, the people, the dumbest statement I have ever heard come out of a human being's mouth, maybe it's not maybe the dumbest, but it's close, right? is is uh is that well i'd be really mad if this thing affected me i'd really get in the fight it's like how stupid is a person to say that it's like if you have a neighbor that's got a problem guaranteed it's going to come your way stop the problem before it gets to your doorstep not wait until oh my gosh i don't know how this happened it's ridiculous Exactly. It's like that's feeding the bear. It's not getting the people in the public involved to make a difference. We are the politics. If you don't pay attention to politics, it's going to pay attention to you. I've been teaching when I taught school. I used to teach the kids that were in the school that if you don't know your rights, you don't have any. You're not willing to fight for him either. And you just sit back and watch everything crumble around you. You don't have any rights. And it's going to it's going to come on you like an avalanche unless you're prepared. There's there's there's no two ways about it. And then you're going to be reacting instead of getting ahead of it. So I wanted to read something. Michigan, let's see. Here we go. I wanted to read what we were writing. Michigan courts rely heavily on fines and fees officially acknowledged. They do generate significant revenue for money-related orders. The system has perverse incentives according to the court administrator. Trial courts cost one point two billion dollars a year in Michigan and are funded largely by fees. local governments and court fees. This shows that money collected through the courts is a major revenue stream. Traffic cases alone generate one hundred and twenty five to one hundred and thirty million dollars a year. Michigan had eight hundred and ninety eight thousand two hundred and forty two traffic civil infractions in twenty twenty three. I'll have to see what the current one is. So generating one point two or not one point two, one hundred and twenty five to one hundred and thirty million dollars annually in fines, costs and assessments. Traffic cases are overwhelmingly civil monetary cases. They represent a huge portion of the total filings. Michigan is currently auditing all trial court revenue flows. This is according to Michigan courts. The Michigan Judicial Council hired a public accounting firm. to collect and analyze all financial inflow, outflow for every trial court. Oh, we're going to have to look into this. The state itself is trying to quantify exactly how much money courts collect. So there's an investigation going on on exactly what we were talking about. Every person in this country has some issue or something that is bothering them. They need to do a deep dive and do research. Now, when I started this battle against internal revenue, I had to go to the law library. I had to take a day off, drive wherever the law library was, Wayne State generally, To Wayne State, I even went to Cooley in Lansing because I couldn't find it at Wayne, so I went to Cooley. So I had to take a day off to drive over there to go through the library, which I, for a long time, didn't even understand how the system worked, and eventually did the law research at the library, and then come home and then put my battle together. Right now, all you got to do is get on the internet, click, It's there in front of you. Court cases, anything you want. You can do all the work. You've saved that hour drive one way and hour drive the other. It's easy. I mean, considerably a lot easier than being in the law library doing it that way. And all you have to do is spend some time doing it. And that's the problem. You got to get off the couch. You got to decide that you're going to take on an issue. And you know what? God is tapping you on the shoulder saying, hey, this is your fight. How are you? What are you going to do about it? And a lot of people just say, well, I'm just going to put it in the drawer and not worry about it. And that's not what God is expecting you to do. He's expecting you to get out there and do something. So when you come up with this fake thing, argument or end a thought and an idea and you don't pursue it and you don't look into it and you expect somebody else to do it for you, you're not doing your job. Why are you here? Why do you come to these broadcasts? Why do you come to our broadcast on Wednesday nights if you're not going to be willing to do the work? And it's not that tough. I'm telling you, compared to what it was like in the eighties and nineties, where I actually had to go and do stuff physically, read this guy's brochure and then prove that it's right or wrong. You don't have to do that anymore because it's right in front of your nose. You got to do it. I got to ask you a question a minute. Have you seen, well, not only this book, but do you know what the fourth turning is? I've heard that. Yeah, I think we talked about that last meeting. I don't remember now for sure. Yeah, like the fact that we're at two hundred and fifty years. I think we talked about it last meeting. That's right. And that it goes back to apathy. It's like the first generation. It's four generations is what it is. And it goes right back to what you're talking about right now. with the apathy in getting involved, right? So I think that I really do think that it's overwhelming for a lot of people. They don't even know what to do because they see so much failure out there. I understand it. It looks overwhelming. In fact, this last week, I had a bunch of people tell me that the people they know, friends of mine, and they're kind of disgusted by it, said, Donna's fighting an unwinnable war. And it's like, how do you know it's unwinnable? Have you ever fought it? Has anybody ever fought it the way that we're fighting it now? I personally believe that there is no such thing as an unwinnable war. It's that you may be getting a different goal than what you think you are. Like, for example, when I talk to people about running for office, If you run for office, whether you win or lose, if then there's anything that's gone on that's wrong, you have jurisdiction and right to sue. And that is enforcing accountability. I almost think that that's a better option than actually winning because you can win in multiple ways. There's not one straight shot to winning. That's something that I think we need to talk about and teach divergent thinking. where you find different ways to hit the goal. And it may not be what you expect. It may not be what's always been done. But you can still and sometimes hit the goal a lot easier by going in a path that's less traveled. How about just general education? Just general knowledge about running for office, what it takes. how much time and energy you put into it, getting in front of the public and speaking. All of those things are ancillary to the actual office that you learn when you do that. People get to know who you are. People start working with you. You build a network. There's a whole lot of stuff. I ran for many different offices in the past. And it's helped me in many different aspects. I understand the system and therefore I can deal with the system because I know the system. If you've never been in court, you have no idea what's going on in the courtroom. You have no idea who the judges are and how they behave and how the prosecutors behave. Because you're afraid to step out of your shell and get your feet wet and find out what the system is all about. When you do that, ninety percent of the time you're going to find out that the system is, as the Chinese put it, a paper tiger. They have no power, no strength, no nothing. We have the power, the strength, but we need to know how to exercise it. And if you don't run for office, you never know what it takes. You've never spent any of the energy to do anything of that nature. Get involved in the politics end of it. So you're right. There's a lot of stuff that you gain from it, but most important is an intellectual growth of yourself. And that's what really is important, that you've grown a lot because you've done the impossible, what you consider impossible at this particular time. You've stepped outside the eggshell and became a warrior or a fighter in one particular area. And you don't have to know everything. I personally tell you, I don't know everything. And I'm going to tell you right now, I don't know about this. Eighteen percent that the judges make in their retirement from speeding tickets wouldn't doubt it wouldn't might be fifty percent. We don't know. But unless you have the the the the the proof of it, it's a story. I've heard a lot of Republicans say, oh, Tudor Dixon won that last election. It's like, how do you know? We don't know any numbers from it because it was so rigged. It's like in in twenty twenty two. That's why I haven't conceded. It's like we if it is a fraudulent election and Judge Marcioni ruled fraud on all counts, even starting with the signature gathers. We do not know. We do not have the numbers. We have no idea how this went. In fact, I don't think that we had anything that we can count on from any of the elections, probably the last two decades. Actually, they've been rigging it for a long time. We just finally had the proof of it and are able to say, yeah. So now what do you do with that when you've got. when you've seen a ruling of fraud in the election and our deputy attorney general, Chris Kessel, said, too, in the courtroom, he's like this, the decisions and the actions of Sean Wilmoth and Willie Reed absolutely changed the course of our elections in the United States. It wasn't just Michigan. It was the course of the elections because they were working in like twelve different states. But there was only one reason for them to prosecute and one person that actually stood up without wavering. And that's the truth. And so at any rate, I think that when you have that and you've seen fraud adjudicated in an election, It needs to stop. It needs to go back and be nullified. And everything that went with it, that goes all the way back. We've got the fraud in the twenty twenty election we know of. It's been proven. And so that is my point. Yeah. Look what you've learned by running for office and look what you've learned. And look where what your focus is on because you ran for office about the fraudulent election, because that fraud was pulled on you. So the problem is that we have a system set up by the bar, the attorneys, and that system created has the attorneys, the prosecutors, the defending attorneys, and the judges, all a member of one club. And this one club protects the system that they're in. Because if the system that they're in collapse, they'd be a lot of them would be out of a job. A lot of them are liars, cheaters and thieves that we know it, but we can't do anything about it or we don't want to do anything about it because we can't get one judge or one attorney to rule against another judge or another attorney because they're all in the same boat together and they're all ripping off the system allowing it. So. Yes, people need to run for office. We need more and more honest people in office that are that are that are care about the republic, that care about fixing the system rather than perpetuating the system. And this is the problem we have. We don't need people that have run in office and been in office over and over and over again. We need new people who have never run for office, who just know the difference between good and evil, right and wrong. and are willing to listen to their constituents on what needs to be done. And then start really getting to know what the law is and the constitution. It starts with read the constitution of Michigan and the federal constitution, read those constitutions to start with. I'd go to New Hampshire after that and read the New Hampshire constitution. And then, but understand those principles. And there's a lot of good resources out there to learn, to learn from. We, the people notices do a pretty good job of, having fundamental law and teaching about that with videos and such. So, I mean, there's a lot of stuff out there. There's really, well, to your point, there's really no excuse at this time in history for any of us to be ignorant of it, though they didn't teach it in the schools because those are just indoctrination camps right now. You probably did when you were in school. I would imagine you were a fantastic teacher, and I wish I would have learned from you then. But you know, but now I get to learn from you now. Right. And so, but, but I can tell you right now, I had the potentially worst history teacher in the history of the world. Okay. I was so bored in that, in that class. It was like, and this day, this is what happened. And then in this date, this is what happened. And it was like one sentence attached to the date. And I'm like, why do we need to know this? I mean, that was me in high school. And so I just checked out. I literally spent the entire class drawing cartoons or something like that on a notebook because I was so freaking bored. And that's really sad, but the reality is that you can catch up even if you didn't get that education through the indoctrination camps. Your motivation to learn might actually be higher when you realize that the wool was pulled over your eyes. You didn't learn anything. So now it's time to learn what you didn't learn and you should have. They wasted everybody's time. Well, that part is true to a degree. And the problem that we did with history, and I kind of was responsible for some of that behavior in the past too, you didn't know exactly what was going on because you didn't have the background either as a teacher. to learn how things were happening and what was going on. So if you didn't have it as a teacher in the background, then you really didn't understand the concept or the need for that particular date that they point out. the end of the Civil War and what followed, and the significance of what followed there, and how they tried to change the Republic from the Republic to a democracy, and how they continued to do that. And where the bar was established by an act, in Michigan. And some of that stuff I'm picking up now because I'm fighting a different battle than I did. But the problem that we have is that if the teacher didn't get the understanding of what's the significance of that year, of that time period, of what was going on, and didn't pass that significance on to the people to the kids, then the kids have no idea what's going on. It was just a date. And I couldn't stand memorizing dates. I hated it. I absolutely hated it. What was the purpose of that? There was really no purpose of that. Unless it was a significant event that happened at that period of time. Then you'd bring that out. And that's the way history should have been taught. And I had a couple of good college teachers that really had their act together and really knew how to teach it. And I would guess in high school, I had the same situation that some of the history teachers over there were asleep at the switch. They didn't know. So you can partially blame the system. You can partially blame the teacher and partially blame the student. It's a kind of a three things going on there. But it was all created in order to create people that don't really question, that don't have critical thinking skills, and also were just be good workers to plug into their big corporate entities as workers. I mean, it was, that's kind of where it came from. But I don't know, the whole system is, you know, when I really got interested in history, James Burke on PBS put out a couple of programs And one of the programs he put out was The Day the Universe Changed. Have you ever heard of that? No, I haven't. Sounds interesting. It is a really, really interesting series that he put out. He put out a couple of them, but it's James Burke, B-U-R-K-E. And what he did is he went through history. So one of them that I found, and I still remember this one very vividly because it was so interesting. It was going back to the Roman roads and and why they had why the tracks that are cut into the stone were spaced the the distance apart they were and how that led to computers how that how that that those events led from one to the next to the next to the next and in it and they would get to the end and and say, you know, well, this is how, I mean, that was one instance, but there were many of them. And this is where computers came into play because all of these events were related. They were all connected. Or the printing or the Gutenberg press, all of these events happened in the past. Had they not happened, the printing press wouldn't have come into being. So I think that what's important that we really can take away from the teachings of Jesus and he taught in parables, parables being stories. We can relate to those things. instead of broad concepts that nobody can relate to. Like if somebody threw out there, the fourth, fifth or sixth or twelfth dimension, most people would go, what? They wouldn't be able to relate to it. They've never seen it. They've never felt that they don't know what's going on, so they can't relate to it. But when you put it in terms, in human terms, and you talk about things in parables people because we're a combination of emotions and logic can make sense of it go oh i understand that and that's that's uh one thing that's sorely missing and i wish that i could go back and have history again and have it taught that way when i taught my kids because i homeschooled my kids i made sure they had a timeline so they could see where their events were related to each other. And I had this really good poster, I still have it, called Streams of Time. And in Streams of Time, you could look and see ongoing concurrent events in different civilizations. So you could see some parallels as how they broadened into each other and civilizations merged and ones disappeared and such. Absolutely fascinating. The connectivity. Well, I'll tell you a little experiment or a little situation that I had when I was teaching. I was teaching American history, government, drafting, and woodshop at the same time. I had three to four different classes because I had background in all of those. So I was able to... teach those areas. So I'm walking back from an American history class, and one of the instructors out there said, Oh, my God, airplanes hit the towers, the towers in New York, and they're falling down. And I'm walking and I'm saying that's an impossibility. for an airplane to get loose and not be shot down and to hit a tower and to cause the tower to collapse. I said that whole thing is an impossibility. And at that point in time, everybody was, At alert, they wanted to go to war. They wanted to fight the Iraqis and Afghanistan and go to war and fight. And everybody was having their American flags flying and all this stuff. And I'm saying, this whole thing's a fraud. This whole thing is fake. And so during this process, well, I'm kind of telling my kids that the whole thing is fake. And I didn't really use those words, but something similar to that. One of the kids brings to me a video called Loose Change, and I don't know if you've ever seen it, but it was a video set up about the collapses of the in New York and why it was a fraud. And I showed that to the kids. I showed that to three classes or four classes. And by the time I then I took a lunch break and then I had the assistant principal come to me and say, oh, my God, you can't show that movie. The whole world is. And I know I had a relative that that had a friend that died on the that died at the the towers over there. So you can't call it a fraud and all that stuff. And I said to him that, okay, I'll stop showing the video. But I had already showed it to four of the five classes. And so four of the five classes of kids had an idea of what was going on. The fifth class already knew because of the rumors going on from the other kids that this was happening. But the principals and the assistant principals were all so concerned that this collapse of the towers and all of this, and then if I wasn't going to, support the narrative that was going on at the time to go to war and fight the war. And I was saying, hey, this is going to be a Vietnam War. This is all over again. This is the same thing. This is how Vietnam started. I had teachers that were all upset with me. And I had the administration coming after me. And I pretty much shrugged it off and went on to doing my own thing. But the point of the matter is that they had other people that were in the system that tried to keep the system perpetuating the way it was without doing any research, without doing any learning or understanding of what was really going on. And, you know, the only reason I know that that was an impossibility is because I've been in the military and I know Strategic Air Command would have shot down any airplane that was a threat. I also know an airplane hitting a tower. The tower was built to withstand airplane crash. I kind of knew all of those things because, you know, I've done my background. But the general public that had no idea what the background was, they were all upset with me. I even put up, I had before this incident happened, I had sayings on the wall, such as the tree of liberty has to be watered by the blood of patriots from time to time. And that was a statement, I believe, by Thomas Jefferson. And I had that posted on my wall because I was teaching the revolution there. of of america at that time and uh i had the teacher that was sharing a room with me got all bent out of shape over this whole thing because i was preaching a revolution during the time that the towers fell down and she took every one of my posters down took him to the principal's office oh my goodness he can't do this and after i explained to the principal i'm not teaching about the Towers come down, I'm teaching the revolution. And he let me put a handful of them back up. So this was kind of the nonsense that was going on for me in the classroom. It was... Set up by a bunch of people that didn't really know what was going on. I wish I would have an opportunity to talk to that assistant principal who railed on me for showing loose change and see if his opinion has changed from, you know, life went on. We realized that it was a fake. It was a fraud. Not the fact that people may have died in the tower, but the fact that that, uh, attacked us and just destroyed the two towers and we should have gone to war over this thing. This was the nonsense that was going on from my experience for Vietnam and my understanding of the Korean War and World War II. And they perpetuated this stuff. This was what drove me nuts. Is this it right here? I can't see it. It's kind of small for me. I'm going to assume that that's it right here. Here's the preview. Yeah, that was it. There are actually two additions to that. But not only that, now there are tons of videos out about it. And the one about the rocket hitting the Or the airplane hitting the Pentagon. That was another one. There's a lot of good stuff out there. I've had an architect on here that brought together a whole bunch of other architects and they analyzed it. There's no way. There's no way that a plane brought that down. It's absurd. You know, one of the things when you look at the shape of an airplane cut out of the steel exoskeleton, You can't even hit two airplane wing tips together without it completely crunching them up. It looks like tinfoil, right? And they expect a plane to cut through a steel exoskeleton? There's no way. It's absurd. Well, it was the same thing about the Pentagon, a plane hitting the Pentagon. That was a fraud, too. They sent this big, huge jumbo jet. all folded together and went into a sixteen-foot hole. Come on. Anybody with any kind of half logic would understand that that's an impossibility. That in itself, without knowing anything about chemistry and science and physics and engineering, would know that that's an impossibility. And where did the jet engines go and where did the seats go and all of the people that were on the airplane, they all disintegrated? Come on. But this was what was taught by the mainstream, lamestream media. And the people bought into it. And we went to war and we spent millions of dollars on the war. And the war itself was a joke because George Bush, it took George Bush a year to get all of the medical army fighting force to Iraq before he started the war. So for a whole year, they were shipping stuff over to the Middle East, to the Middle East, to the Middle East. And when it finally, a year went by, then we said, okay, now we're going to go to war. And what was Saddam Hussein doing at the time? He was sitting on his hands waiting for the Americans to build their military force before he would fight. So like a thirteenth century general, let's get the Americans here in a line and the Iraqis here in a line and let's have them go at each other. Stupidity. The whole thing was ignorant. Well, Debra, have you ever really pondered this? I mean, I have. I'm sure you have, too, that somebody was funding both sides of the war just exactly like what happened with the Bushes in World War II with Standard Oil. They're sitting in the North Sea up there. They were literally funding both sides as far as providing for oil. for the oil and gas to flow at that time. They didn't care who won. They were selling stuff. The same thing happens in war. It's generally the same entities that are funding both sides because it's an industry. They don't care. It's like politics. They don't care who wins. Not at all because they're going to control whatever is in place. It's all about making money. It's about making money, it's about losing our freedom and giving up some of our freedom and our rights to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. We did it during the collapse of the towers where we gave up all of our rights at the airport. You now got to take your shoes off, you got to take your belt off, you got to take this off and that off. You got to get strip searched. You got to get TSA looking at you. None of that stuff happened before nine eleven. And after nine eleven, I mean, we lost all of our privileges of traveling in this country without being scrutinized by the government. That's what we lost from that particular battle. Not only that, we lost the, there was an argument at that particular time that they were having a court case that they were supposed to meet with. One guy had a court case going against the internal revenue where he was supposed to meet with the internal revenue director and a couple of congressmen and senators, and they were going to have a meeting on the income tax the day before the towers collapsed. And after the after nine eleven happened, where'd the meeting go? Yeah, where'd the money go to? Exactly. So they use these games against us all the time and we buy into it. And that's the problem. We don't know what our rights are in America and what we can do. COVID was another one. Put a mask on. Can't go to church. Can't go to the grocery store. Can't go here. But you can go to a box store. That's okay. You can go to one of those big stores. That's okay. You can go to an abortion clinic. That's okay. But you can't go to some of the other places that you may need to really want to go or that you may want to go. Some restaurants were allowed to operate, but a lot of them were not allowed to operate. And you wore a mask, you didn't wear a mask. It just went on and on. What drives me nuts right now is in the city of Grand Rapids, this started in COVID. All of a sudden, they started allowing businesses to push out and have seating out in the roads. Now, I want to ask you a question. Why is it that some of them have the ability to take a whole lane and a road up, which is public? It's a public area, but they've now pushed these businesses out into the roads. The only answer to that is that they're part of the nationalizing the businesses in the United States. They're literally nationalizing it. If you think that China, oh, they've nationalized all the businesses. Newsflash, they're doing it here. There's still some businesses that are privately owned, but they're under so much regulation that it's kind of the same thing. They just aren't calling it out as such. So, hey, I want to show you something really cool. I just got my bread out of the oven. Talk amongst yourself for just one second. I'm going to bring this. I guess I got to throw one more thing out. Now we're going to the moon again, according to what I hear. But nobody has said how they get through the Van Allen belt of radiation. Nobody has come up with how they how they did things back in the nineteen sixties when they went to the moon and people landed on the moon. Now they've got people going to the moon and that are going to circumscribe the moon and then fly back. How did they overcome some of these challenges that were never overcome in the past? Is there some sort of magical thing that they can go through, some magical tunnel or something? Because their space outfits don't look any more protective from radiation than they did back in the sixties. And the spaceships aren't made of lead. Oh, that looks good. Doesn't that look good? Too bad you're not my neighbor. I've got two of these babies sitting on the counter right now. It's cranberry Swiss. So I had to show you that. Make you hungry. Yeah, exactly. Oh, it's nice and warm, too. So put a whole bunch of butter on that. That's good. What's that? I say they're the best when they come out of the oven, when they're fresh. Oh, my goodness. Yeah. So but I think I just think that there's so much that we have to learn. And, you know, we're coming out of a time of being in engineered ignorance, honestly, they only taught And we were only really exposed because they controlled the message. I mean, they control everything in order to hide. And so they did it through the news media. They did it through our indoctrination camps called schools and education and such. Instead of really informing people, it's always when you hire people, you, such as myself, hiring people, it's amazing to see the difference in people who are actually educated and those who are not and how many people. really are so ill prepared to go out in the world in the workforce. I had one gal that I interviewed years ago, and it was kind of shocking to me. And I hired another gal. And the one gal said, I'm nineteen years old and I don't know how to be an adult. Yeah, she said, I wish that my friends, I really, really wish that my friends could come and just sit and learn some things and how to balance a checkbook. or even be able to have a conversation with people. It was really kind of shocking to me how ill-prepared, and they knew that they were. They knew that they were ill-prepared. And that was probably, I'm going to say, ten, fifteen years ago. And it was shocking. But now I think, you know, like you said, the upside of everything being at the tip of our fingers all the time with AI and such, I'm not totally against AI. I think it's a tool, though. You have to know how to use the tool and operate it. or it's going to hallucinate on you. So you've got to know something about the subject matter. You can't just get in there and say, oh, AI said this, and I'm sure it's right, because it's going to get you, because it doesn't kick out right. Did you know that with the lawsuits that I wrote that I've been out there, when the Attorney General's Office replies to those in a brief or a reply brief or whatever it is, almost all of it is just they threw it into AI, it came back out, nobody checked the cases anymore, And I've gone through them, and it's like, wait a minute. This is like proving my argument. Yep, exactly. It's really interesting. It's not AI's hallucinating. You're hallucinating using AI. Well, I don't know. Getting back to AI. AI, you're right, is a tool. It's like a hammer. But you don't take a hammer and try to eat an egg with it. It just, that's not the purpose of it. What is the purpose of AI? Maybe it'll help you put the paragraph together, which you have difficulty putting, but you gotta still read the paragraph and you gotta still understand what the paragraph says and what content is in the paragraph. And if that makes sense, and if you don't go through that process, then you're being led by the nose with AI. And I have relatives that are doing this. that they believe in something. I had one relative that showed me how great AI was, that he could do this and manipulate it and make a perfectly good building just by typing in things. And then the next thing he says is, well, they're destroying people in Iran. And how do I know that? Because AI says so. And I says, well, if you can fake your building without having a building there, can't you fake that story no no this is real because there's a lot of these out there gone if it's fake in one case it's fake in another case or it could be fake what research have you done what do you really know other than are you following what the ai is saying and a lot of people just follow ai i'm sitting with my son who is pretty intelligent he's a colonel And I ask him a question, and what does he do? He picks up the telephone. Let me see. Let me see what the telephone says here. And then he answers my question. I says, that's not what I asked. And this is the problem that we have. We have people that are so accustomed to having AI do your thinking for you that you don't do the thinking anymore. You give it up. Why should I think? Computer's doing it for me. So we have problems. I wanted to bring up Holy Hochul, Governor Hochul from New York. All of those rich New Yorkers that if you don't like it here, get out. they all went to florida and now she's saying holy smokes our social programs are folding because we don't have any income any revenue oh no why don't you folks send me some checks uh why don't you pay you know so we can keep our social programs going that's why they left you dingbat but she's still pressing this issue and she's a governor of new york unbelievable New York is a mess. Look at, look at the, the New York city mayor. It wouldn't, what a total disgrace and total mess. You know, the last time I was in New York city, I was like, I don't even care if I ever go back again, because it was just, it was really like, and everybody that was with me felt the same, same way about it. They're like, It just was, it was really, and I was there when I was younger, but it was just absolutely, I don't know. I'm not, not like a place that I would say is a destination. I mean, it's like, I've been to India too. I don't see India as a place that, you know, you go vacation at, you know, as a destination, unless you like, you know, third world poverty and such, but I kind of felt the same way about New York city. And I've been there a few times. I mean, I've been there and seen, seeing Sting at the Met and done some other things like that. But it's like, you know, some of the shopping is good, but I'm not really sure it's worth the congestion. And one of the drivers that, because I don't, I wouldn't drive there. You got to be nuts to drive there, right? And so one of the guys that was driving us around said too, he said, nobody lives in New York City anymore. He goes, I live across across the river. He said, there really isn't anybody that lives, people come here to work. But he said, people don't really live in New York City the way that you think that they would. Now, I think that that's a broad generalization, of course, you know, but and that was one person's account of it. But I was not, it wouldn't be a destination place for me. My first experience of New York was when I played in an accordion contest in New York. Okay, now this is like one of those epic tater moments that is just actually not only wonderful, rich, and hilarious all at the same time. So you were in New York City in an accordion competition. That's right. We had a quartet. We played at the World's Fair when the World's Fair was in New York. It was, I think, somewhere around there. took third place with it, which was good, because that was the first trophy I ever took required. So that was kind of cool. But it was a mess. We were traveling by freeway, I mean, by subway, carrying our accordions. And at one point, we stopped, we all stopped. And four or five of us grabbed our accordions and we're getting off the train. And as the four or five of us got off the train, we really weren't getting off the train. We were just stepping off and stepping back on. But we faked another one of the accordion players that was in the group, and he got off the train. We got back on the train. That was nasty, but it was fun. We had a good laugh. Oh, you guys were naughty. Yeah, we did our naughty things for sure. Yeah, this is pretty funny. So, well. There you go. Well, let's, I know that you've got, I see Pro Se Mike here. Let me bring him on a minute. We'll just say hi. Hey, Mike, how you doing? Hey, morning, guys. How you doing? Good. Hang on a second. I got to get, I'm stalling right now because I need to find John's contact here. And, you know, I'm running like five screens right now, guys, just so you know. So anyhow, there you go, John. Here's a plug. What's happening in John world this week? Well, this week we're going to talk about the birthright citizenship and how many people have got this all screwed up. There is no such thing as an anchor baby. There's no such thing as a, you come to get, you come to America, you get born in America and therefore you are an American citizen as the Chinese have been doing for a long time. They bring their, Chinese babies, they have a Chinese baby over here. Chinese baby goes back to China, learns how to become a good commie, and then comes back into America and says, I'm an American citizen. So that is crap. It's not true. The Supreme Court is going to probably destroy that whole idea of birthright citizenship. The Fourteenth Amendment did not give citizens from uh other countries to the right to come here get born here and become citizens they have to go through a process first of all if you come here illegally you're an illegal and even if you give birth to a baby that baby's illegal because you're illegal so the whole birthright citizenship is nonsense the fourteenth amendment was to give the slaves back then uh citizenship those people that lived in america citizenship we never talked about uh they've never talked about immigrants coming in and getting citizenship with the fourteenth amendment and it's the intent of the law that is the law so the intent of the fourteenth amendment was to give citizenship to the slaves nothing else so we're going to be talking about that on wednesday night come and join us we uh we'll listen to um there's a mark levin talks about it and we've used we're gonna talk about him and what he said about it too and so on and so forth it'll be a interesting uh wednesday it'll be seven to nine go to magnificent republic call me write me whatever we'll get you an invite if you want to come in All right. Awesome. We're going to take a fifty seven second break here and we will be right back at ten o'clock segment with Pro Se Mike. Hopefully you didn't go to jail again this week, but that was a good story and fighting, fighting for what's right. And somebody I had a friend that said he had to turn it off because his heart was breaking that you went to jail to fight for your rights. And I said, I think if you talk to Mike, you would find out that it actually, he poked the bear. He knew that what he was doing, it was intentional. And now we can go after him because they, they did commit a crime. And so it sometimes, sometimes, you know, you have to stand, even if you take a couple of hits in the process to prove that you're innocent and to be able to fight these people that are breaking the law. We'll be right back. Yeah. I want everybody to raise my hat. Trump was right about everything. He's still right about everything. There you go. Well, and there, there you go. You know, it's like he throws things out there as the bait to see who's going to bite on it. And I don't, you know, a lot of people are, are, you know, throwing daggers at him right now and whatever he does. It's like, people are like, They blow around like leaves in the wind, one minute to the next. Oh, we love Trump. We hate Trump. We love Trump. We hate Trump. It's like, how can people be that weak-minded? It's amazing. But if you look at what he's done, it is absolutely brilliant in pulling people out of the shadows to catch them and to show what they really are all about. So I don't think that what we're seeing right now, I don't think he put the A string in place at the beginning. I think those were kind of, they were there for a time, but that's not the real team. So anyhow, we'll be right back. Fifty-seven seconds. Thanks, John. Have a great day. See you, John. Good morning and welcome to the second hour of Brandenburg News Network. I am Donna Brandenburg. It is the seventh day of April, twenty twenty six. Welcome to our show. And we're on with Pro Se Mike. How you doing, Mike? Good morning. How you doing? Good. I'm doing great. See, I told John this morning, I wish you guys should be my neighbors. So I got this out of the oven in the first hour. What's that? Is that blueberry? Cranberry Swiss. Cranberry. Okay. Yeah. I've got all these different variations I've gotten into now and I'm making about two loaves every single day. Cause I'm, I'm bringing them to other people in that. So sometimes I make four, you know, in this and such, but I enjoy doing it. It's a great little therapy and, gives me something positive to think about and I don't know, and everybody likes it. So there you go. There you go. How are you? No, no jail time this week. No jail time this week. Um, unfortunately my dad is in the hospital. Oh, I'm sorry. What happened? His gallbladder went septic. And so he was worked on yesterday. He's recovering. So it's going to be a little while, slow recovery. Uh, it's going to, um, inhibit what we have planned here coming up the end of the month, first part of May, where we're looking to do a fifty veteran, fifty state campaign fundraiser. So be one veteran for each state and to bring awareness of how veterans are being treated, how badly they're being treated by the children of Congress, the courts and and just overall. Well, you know what? I want to stop right now and let's say a prayer for your dad. Okay. Dear Heavenly Father, we thank you so very much for Ed and for Mike and all that their family has done for not only to make the world a better place, but the United States of America and the service that they've done, that Ed did in his military service. Thank you so much for the people that are around him. And we ask for your blessings and your guidance and help so that he recovers very quickly, that your hand is upon him and that he can continue to do the good works here that he enjoys doing so very much. We pray that you would give Mike the support that he needs to be able to stand with his dad, carry him through this time and that they know that you're with them every step of the way. It's amazing how much we can go through and still keep going because of your strength, your wisdom and your provision for us. Thank you for everything Thank you for this healing. We claim this healing in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. And give out a good big smile on his face today, knowing that you've got things in control and that everything's going to be just fine. In the name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen. Thank you. Amen. Thank you very much. So something else that I've done changed. I don't know if you've noticed that you don't see me with... Uh-oh, where'd Mike go? He got a phone call in. He'll be back in just a minute. This actually happens when people get a phone call or they're on the phone every once in a while. But we endeavor to persevere. He'll be right back, I'm sure, about it. So let's see what happens. He might have to reconnect again. I don't know if you remember the story about Mike and his dad, Ed. His dad is the one who he met a guy in Walmart as a greeter. And he was not able to sustain himself through normal means. And so what ended up happening is somebody started a GoFundMe. And I think he had the highest amount ever raised in GoFundMe. Ed did. And it's a beautiful story. And this is a great story about how somebody actually is going to use the funds and the means that were given to him by God Almighty who will give him the glory here, who deserves it. in helping others. And so their effort to help veterans is going to be a beautiful thing when they get this all going and in place. Let me check up on him a minute real quick, see what happened. You know, they have continued to try to silence Mike, myself, and a lot of other people that are online here throughout our... Please leave your message for... Oh, there we go. We'll see what happened. I wonder if he lost... I wonder if he lost his connectivity. Oh, here we go. Ta-da, what happened? Can't hear you. Sound is off. You're muted. So let's see if you can get back on here. We'll make this work. It's just a matter of a few minutes maybe, sometimes less, sometimes more. Stick with us. This is going to be good. Mike. So anyhow, let's take a quick look at this loose change thing that John was talking about. I'll have to take breaks in it once in a while, but let's see what we got here. Sorry about the cough, guys. When questioned about this, Boeing representatives refused to discuss it due to national security. This is what the underside of a Boeing seven sixty seven should look like. You got to give it a break just here a second or I'm going to get a strike from YouTube a minute, but Mike is not able to connect right now. So I've got somebody else getting ready to come back on. So we're going to continue on with this for just a minute and be right back. ...media in their coverage of the events of the attack last September. Well, let's see. Shamefully is a word that comes to mind. Justin, you are looking at obviously a very disturbing live shot there. That is the World Trade Center and we have unconfirmed reports this morning that a plane has crashed This morning we've been talking about things that we need to question and not just take things at face value. So we're going to continue on with this for just a minute and we will be right back. It's unpatriotic. If there's something wrong with you, you may be a terrorist. So in that sense, there's not enough room for dissenting voices? Well, there's plenty of room. There's just not enough. People are willing to take the risk. I don't know whether we've confirmed that this was an address or to be more specific. Some people said they swapped. They swapped. There was definitely a blue logo. It was like a circular logo on the front of the plane. Interesting. Question everything. That is the word for the day today. It sounds to me like this is cutting in and out. That's okay. We'll get it figured out here in a minute. I don't know what the problem is with Mike yet, with Mike being able to connect. But, oh yeah, I said, keeps turning off the video and the audio. Let's see what, let's see what, okay. Let's see what else we can do here. Hang on one second. Bear with us. This is as close as we can get to the base of the World Trade Center. You can see the firemen assembled here, the police officers, FBI agents, and you can see the two towers. Trying to avoid the YouTube strike here, keeping this going. This is an important thing to watch. Loose change. Oh, hang on. We have connectivity with Ralph. Good morning. Morning, Ralph. How are you doing? Good. How about you? Well, pretty good, except I got this cough and I also started a little, man, somebody doesn't want us on today. Mike can't seem to connect and here we are. So anyhow, thank you for jumping on this morning, Ralph. So I don't know why Mike can't come on and why he's not got the connectivity, but we're going to endeavor to persevere and Dawn will be on in just a little bit here. And I don't know if Mike's going to be able to make it back on. We'll have to see. So what's happening in your world today? Oh, just, I don't know. I'm just looking here on down detector and I'm noticing there's a pretty good spike of an awful lot of stuff being down here recently. Oh, really? Yep. Let me see if we can bring that up. You know what? We've had a lot of attacks lately. Yep. I've been dealing with trying to work with some various issues that have come up in connectivity the last couple of weeks. We've had quite a bit. Well, good to know. It's across the board here. Okay, let's see if we can get this to come up. Wow, this is like not running. It's a little nutty. All right, then. I don't know if we're locked up. If we're locked up out there, let me know somebody, okay? Oh, there we go. Almost. Ta-da. All right, let's talk about this, Ralph. Yeah, Starbucks, Microsoft. Yep, there's an awful lot of stuff that's having issues right now. Yeah. Wow, look at that. You ever notice how many connected? You know that they're connected when you see that sort of stuff happening. Oh, Mike's back. All right. Don't ask me what happened there. Glad you're back. Let's see if we can hear you. Can you hear me? Well, we were just talking about that. Ralph, you want to address this a minute on what's going on? Not our fault. Well, there's an awful lot of stuff that's showing up as offline the last half an hour or so. But... Not entirely sure where it's coming from, but there's an awful lot of services, including stuff from Microsoft that's been offline recently. Cloudflare's got some issues, so there appear to be some internet infrastructure issues right now. You know, people treat the internet as a big magical thing that just happens, but in the end, it's still just a whole bunch of computers and a whole bunch of equipment that are strung together with really long network cables and fiber optic connections, you know? The core of it is a little bit different than what's at your house, but it's not that different from what's at your house at its core. So you still just got to have people that are out there maintaining that stuff and keeping it running. It's nothing big and magical, and a lot of times it's a lot more fragile than what people think it is. we've talked about before on the show, the, uh, the big level three data center in Chicago, that that ends up being the main hub for the internet for most of the Midwest. And it's like one floor of one building in Chicago. And when they have issues, it takes out a good portion of the country. So I don't know what's going on today. one of the comments that came on is it's pretty obvious they don't want Mike's info out. And I think that there's some truth to that, but it looks like it's a broad outage right now. But we've seen so much instability in the tech world lately that I think that that's probably indicative of the fact that things are being changed or maybe move over to a new system or that there may just be, we just don't really know what it is. We can guess, but But there you go. Well, thanks. It could very well also be just small-scale incompetence at the level of the people running some of this stuff. You just never know. You just don't know. So, well, let's see if we can make this work with – I'll give them the benefit of the doubt. Let's see if we can make this work with Mike. There you go. All right. Well, Ralph, I'm going to send you backstage a minute. If you can hang on and be there in case we have a problem, that would be good. It's good to have an IT guy around, right? Because he can look into things. So thanks, Ralph. All right. So here we are. Let's see if we can make this work. Now, where were we, Mike? You know, I don't even remember now. You're talking about the veterans, the thing with your dad. Yeah, we're doing a campaign to do awareness to the veterans. It'll be one veteran per state. Sam, the guy that helped out my dad, he's coming back here from Australia here at the end of the month. And so there's a big campaign that's going to be taking place. What do you have planned? um i'm not the one running the details on that uh they've got coordinators setting all that up uh they'll be probably starting here in michigan and then branching out from there going to probably around the state you know every state so um unfortunately my dad won't be able to travel uh so he's gonna have to do everything by remote video and so um But yeah, the whole campaign is to bring awareness to how the veterans are being treated by the children of Congress, by the courts, and so on. So this is a campaign that's never taken place before. No one's ever done something like this before. So we're hoping that this is going to mushroom into something bigger down the road. And I do see that happening. Well, you know, this is a symptom of our entire society. The veterans are treated poorly. The people that are in our elder care homes are treated poorly. The kids are being treated poorly. I mean, realistically, the government of the United States just sees us as something to use, not to serve. You know, they've set themselves up as a, you know, I don't know. It's not a monarchy. It's not an oligarchy. It's something much worse than that. And it's very sad. But I have some suspicions that not only do we have ghost children in the leering centers and such like that. We've got ghost students. We've got ghost voters. We've got ghost elder care or elders in the homes. I think we've got ghost veterans that are out there too. And that's really sad because they're using identities just like with the voters. We had a smurfing going on. They're using fake names. identities fake people to siphon off funds into areas that the people aren't getting them this is really messed up but i want to hear more about what you guys are doing this is amazing now one of the things that i talked to uh gold fund me about and they're putting in uh uh guidelines to make sure that the predatory bar attorneys don't try and prey on these veterans. Because what they're going to try and what we see possibly as a thing that they might try and do is they're going to see these veterans get a sum of money through this fundraiser. And they're going to go to one of their buddy bar judges and request that they become their guardian. without their consent, without their knowledge, so that they can steal and pillage the money from these veterans. So we're putting safeguards in place to make sure that these predatory attorneys cannot get a guardianship over them and prey on them, whoever they may be, to steal the funds that we raised for them. So we're not gonna allow this to happen. We're not gonna let the government and the judges and the courts prey upon them. And we're gonna make sure that that doesn't happen. Well, I tell you what, I think I want to put something up. I just got a bit of news in, and I think that this is going to be significant because it came from President Trump. I'm going to quickly put this up here in a minute because I think that we are set. You look at the down detector, you look at some of this other stuff. I think we're set to see a radical change in the United States. And I think we're poised for that. And it's a really good thing at this moment in time because people like yourself, myself, people that want to see things done correctly, I think we're going to get our opportunity to do so. So check this out. This is kind of crazy. I can move this around just a bit. But just to go back to what happened on... on March, when they came and raided my dad's house with the search warrant, they had me listed as property. Well, the last time- Yeah, this is messed up. I must be a slave. I must be a slave. I'm being treated as property. And that's how they look at us. They look at us as property. And this is part of the problem. These sheriff's departments better wake up and stop being the puppets of the bar. And that's what they're acting at. Well, the judge said, well, you're part of the executive branch, Sheriff, not the judicial. You're supposed to be the oversight. You're supposed to look at what a judge does and go, sorry, judge, that's not a valid warrant. Sorry, judge, there's no probable cause here. Sorry, judge, you're usurping your authority. But they're not doing that. They're at the bidding of the judges and being their puppet. Well, this is something that was just put out that I just got in. It says this is odd, too. It's like four seven twenty six at one oh six p.m. This is odd because it's before the time is in this strange. So it's ten. It's ten twenty six. And this says that it was put out at one oh six p.m. on on four seven twenty six but let's read this anyway a whole civilization will die tonight never to be brought back again i don't want that to happen but it probably will however now that we have complete and total regime change where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail. Maybe something revolutionary, wonderful can happen. Who knows? We will find out tonight one of the most important moments in a long and complex history of the world. Forty-seven years of extortion, corruption, and death will finally end. God bless the great people of Iran. Hmm. That's kind of interesting. What are your thoughts seeing that? First of all, the time disparity is kind of like interesting to me. Well, here's a problem I have. I don't know who wrote that. Okay. Yeah, it says Donald Trump at the top, but I don't know that he actually wrote that. Some of his posts lately have been really unusual. There was another recent post that I put out that was very, very unusual. And it had certain things, letters, and it missing within the post. So nothing is ever coincidence. But to look at this, you're right. Who is writing what's behind things? I don't know that either. But I don't know what this means right now, but it's something to ponder. If anybody wants to write in the comments. You could take a lot of inferences on this. Hypotheticals. It could be talking about the old regime in Iran being wiped out. It could mean a lot of different things. But again, I don't know who wrote it. And I don't like taking stuff like this and throwing a bunch of speculation, hypotheticals, gaslighting, whatever term you want to use. Right. You know. I don't have anything that I can substantiate this by. Well, and I think this is an important thing to talk about, too, because I put a post out there a few days ago because they were talking about UAPs. And I'm like, I'm done with this. I don't want to hear any more about this because either put up or shut up for the people out there, you know, that are controlling the message. You've got to stop putting people in a position of panic full time. Well, I have an opinion of the Middle East. Some people like my opinion. Some people don't. That's the joys of an opinion. What's your opinion? Because it's all opinion right now. Go ahead. Okay. Opinion. The sandbox has been nothing more than a... proxy of the deep state. takes one side, Russia t I'm talking about during t the eighties and basicall We give them our toys. They give them their toys, and they duke it out in the sandboxes whose toys are better. Oh, our tanks are better than theirs, but their bazooka is better than ours, whatever it may be. And that's the way it was for years. The mentality of the sandbox is tribal. If you really look back and a lot of people say, well, what do you mean by that? The greatest example I can give people to go and actually physically see it. Go watch the movie Lawrence of Arabia. Watch how they interacted back then. And during that course, it shows the tribal mentality. That's what they have today. As far as I'm concerned, again, opinion. put basically a barricade around the whole sandbox. Nobody in, nobody out. Last man standing wins. End of the conflict. That sandbox has been in conflict since the dawn of man. I don't see it changing. I don't ever see it changing because they have a tribal mentality. And that's my opinion. Here is, this is interesting. Here was one before it on the fifth. Tuesday will be power plant day and bridge day, all wrapped up in one in a ranch. There will be nothing like it. Open the fucking straight, you crazy bastards, or you'll be living in hell. Just watch. Praise be to Allah, President Donald J. Trump. I read this one when it came out earlier in the week on Fifth. And I was the same way. I was like, praise be to Allah. I don't think President Trump would say that, just a guess. It doesn't sound like him. And even this entire post says, It really doesn't, as crazy as he is, I think he's hilarious. Okay. I absolutely think the posts from President Trump are absolutely hilarious. Okay. But it still doesn't sound like anything he's put out before, does it? The ships were moving through there because the insurance lords of London quit the insurance policy. Yeah. So they're not going to move. So it's all it's all smoke and mirrors. It's all a game. It's all about money. It's all politics. And that's why I don't I don't concentrate on that. OK, we have enough issues going on in our own backyards that need our our attention first and foremost. Don't worry about what's going on over there. because there's nothing y you can say that's going going on over there. Look clean up your own backya not doing their job. Yo not doing her job. You'v not doing their job. Conce Some of this stuff going on, if you're, if you don't have a stable relationship with God, where you are, you were like, okay, this is all temporary anyway. And we'll, we'll get through it no matter what happens. But when you see a post like, like this one too, it's like, I don't know, let's, let's see how the day ends, but I'm sure not going to get bent out of shape about things. It's interesting. It's interesting to watch. And certainly I think, you know, we should be paying attention to the president of the United States and what happens in government. But as you said, the local government, if we're not paying attention to local, local is where they're taking us down. It's not the global stuff. Right. And, you know, Billy Joel came out with a song called We Didn't Start the Fire. OK, listen to the to the lyrics of the song. And you compare that what happened back then to what's going on now. It's the same same stuff. It's the same scenario. It's history repeating itself. So, you know, there's two good examples right there. Just listen to that song, watch the movie Lawrence of Arabia, and you'll have, I think, a better understanding that that mentality over there is what it is. It's not going to change. That's what they believe. That's what, you know, that's the way they've always been. Since the dawn of man, the sandbox has always been the same way. I think that a lot of these countries, though, I really do believe that a lot of them are proxy countries to our own deep state. and that we've been funding both sides of things, and it's really the wars against the people in Iran, the people in Israel, the people in China, the people in the United States, and it's really been overlaid with a global crime syndicate, a transnational crime syndicate. So when I read this, it's kind of interesting how it's worded, though. I just saw it, so I want to dig down into it. Now that we have complete and total regime change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen. We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long, complex history of the world. Forty seven years of extortion, corruption and death will finally end. And God bless the people, the great people of Iran. I think it's great in a way. It's like I hope something wonderful does happen there. And the people are free because, you know, when you see things, you know, you know, I've been pondering this thing after after, you know, Easter and celebrating Resurrection Day, which which we do. We don't celebrate Easter per se. We celebrate Resurrection Day, the resurrection of Jesus Christ. And it's a wonderful thing. But when you look at all the countries across the globe, and I'm going to come down on the Jewish history, on the history of any civilization which tortures people to death. I don't care which civilization you have. If they are torturing people instead of, you know, if somebody needs to be eliminated because they're reprehensible and they can't, be rehabilitated, which I believe pedophiles fall under that category. I don't think you can rehabilitate somebody who's gone down that line. If they don't know that it's wrong, well, sorry, I'm not going to buy into your craziness. But when you look at the crucifixion of Christ, what kind of monsters would do this to a human being? Why? This is a sickness. The people that carried out the crucifixion, they were sick. They beat him bloody. They put nails in his hands and his feet and such. I mean, it was absolute. There's some evidence from the Shroud of Turan that He had a dislocated shoulder on top of it and all of these other things. This is monstrous what they did. There's no excuse. I don't care what religion people say for beheading people, for mutilating people physically, for doing, you know, let's say honor killings or burning people with acid, the acid attacks that happen. These people are not human in the sense of anything good they are monsters the ones that carry this stuff out they are deranged they're mentally ill and it's a monstrous act when you torture cut up remove organs kill babies whatever it is there's not another species on the planet that would do these kind of monstrous acts and there is no excuse for them whatsoever And so I just look at this and go, the ones that are involved in they're probably paid to keep those that are in power in power. They're probably paid for it in some way or another. I do not believe that any religion actually carries these things out. It's a military, more of a military subversion. tactic to mess with people's minds. And I just can't, I don't understand it. And so for me, I don't care what religion people decide to decry or to say, well, this is what we do. This is just what we do. No, you're making excuses for being an abuser, a monster. And that's all there is to it. There's no excuse for that. And I don't care. what label you put on it. So going back to the tribalism, you know, I've got kind of a bitch and I'll just put it out there today for like the Native American nonsense. So what happened to us? I was born here. That makes me Native American, right? And I'm sorry that things happened in the past. We've all had things happen to us in the past. We've had things taken. And to suffer abuse at one part or another. Why don't we call it out for what it is? It's either good or it's evil. And, you know, I don't know. The world is messed up and they've used tribalism in a large part to divide people. Well, tribalism is also a belief. It's a mindset and a belief. It's been that way since the dawn of man. And so, I mean, the thing is, going back to Iran, during World War II, Iran was the number one country in taking in refugees during World War II. A lot of people don't know that. Mindsets, Japan, when they realize that they're losing the war, what they resort to, kamikazes, okay? The mindset was, you're going to load, this plane's gonna be loaded with a bomb, you're gonna run that plane right into the ship, You're going to kill yourself for the better, for the good of the of the country and family. It was disgraceful if you didn't. You were going to disgrace your family in the country if you didn't do this. This is their mindset. Every every culture throughout man has always had where they have certain mindsets and beliefs on what to do and what. it's tied in with their religion, what they believed as far as their religion of whatever it is that they believed in. And you see that through all different cultures. You see that through all different sects of religion and cultures and everything else. So to say that one is barbaric over the other, you have to understand that this is what they were raised. This is how they believe. And I don't demonize any religion unless you're trying, unless your religion is to kill everyone else. Okay, you look at the Koran, you know, to get your seventy virgin whatevers, you have to kill the infidel. Okay, now we got a problem. No religion should promote the death or onslaught of another. Violating their rights. I mean, when you look at mutilating a child, you know, and that, you know, this is something that a lot of other cultures do. It's not OK. No, it isn't. No, it isn't. And, you know. You look at the Roman Empire. I mean, what they did through the Colosseum and the killing of the Christians and whatnot, freedom to the lions. This is a rabbit hole that there can never be a justification for it. But at the same time, you have to understand the mentality of the people of the time. And I'm not saying that's an excuse. I'm just saying that was the mindset of the time. That was the mindset of that culture. That was the mindset of whatever it is. And a lot of times when you had a dictator in place, you had to believe what the dictator believes. Otherwise, guess what? You're going to get fed to the lions, so to speak. I'm going to say that really hasn't changed. I mean, look at what people watch on TV. It's the same thing. It's this bloodlust. There's something wrong with this. Well, the man, mankind, whatever you want to term it, has always been that way. Yeah, it's wrong. I'm not saying it's an excuse. I'm just saying it's the way it's always been. And I believe that the reason why is because we have traits that we cannot overcome. Greed. okay uh is is the primary one greed is the biggest and to me is the the biggest and promoter of sin okay and unless you learn how to control that greed you're going to be overcome by it and a lot of people the way to do it is because you can't do it even on your own all of these these problems that people have you know we we are we're our human beings have a fallen nature And it doesn't take too long, as to your point, to look around and say, this is just barbaric. It's wrong. Yeah. But look what the judges do. Look what the courts do. This is human trafficking, what the courts are doing. Why? Because you've got some guy in a satanic black robe sitting there, not even a judge. He's an administrator. But he's got a God complex that thinks that I am Lord and Master over everybody that comes before me. And you will bend the knee or else. Right. And the or else is you're going to be incarcerated. You're going to be, in a sense, tortured because you're mentally being tortured. Your family's being tortured by this. So These people are weak-minded, they're spineless, okay? You know, they call themselves, you know, oh, I'm a public functionary, I'm a judge, I'm this, I'm that. No, what you are is a disgrace. You're a disgrace to human beings, you're a disgrace to your profession, and you're a disgrace to the flag for which you represent. You're a complete disgrace, you're a fraud. And if you were to take these SOBs out behind the woodshed, they wouldn't last five minutes. So we got to start cleaning up our own backyards. We got to start taking care of making it our sheriffs to do their damn job like they're supposed to clean out these judges. I'm sorry, but the Bar Association needs to be abolished completely. Completely abolished. And. all these judges need to be shit canned. We need to get a whole new, uh, from top to bottom, uh, all new judges from the district courts all the way up to the Supreme court. So, so John was taking issue with us this morning on the fact that he said, I don't know if I've ever seen anything that proves that we have a, um, I'm sorry, I've got a bit of coughing this morning. Um, my, uh, that we have an eighteen percent that goes to their retirement accounts or end in the court system. So I started looking it up some more and finding out exactly how much money that they use as revenue generating to pay for this illegal court system that's that has nothing to do with justice whatsoever. It's kind of interesting. They are getting funded. I had Judge Bain to admit a couple of years ago in a hearing, and I accused him of being a third party debt collector for the plaintiff in the case, the state of Michigan. And he immediately objected what I was saying and stated on the record that the money in the fines and fees, the money doesn't go to the state of Michigan. It goes to them, the court. So wait a minute. What you're telling me here is, Judge, is that you now have a financial vested interest in the outcome of this court case because you're going to get the money. Now, how is that a fair and impartial hearing? It's not. They've got incentives. This is extortion, racketeering, and money laundering. This is the definition of it. And he admitted it on the record. Now, where's the sheriff? He's got one of his puppets standing in the courtroom. As an observer, he heard the whole thing. He should have immediately stopped the proceeding and said, Judge, you're under arrest. But what does he do? He stands there like the puppet he is, in his uniform, shiny little badge and his little gun, and does nothing. So I'm sorry, the sheriff's departments need to be overhauled. Every sheriff that refuses to act as jury needs to be removed. They need to be shit-canned. They themselves need to go to prison. They need to go to prison. At least. At the minimum. Because what's the penalty for treason? And they're committing treason. Last I looked, that's by hanging. I didn't write the statute. But that's what it says. That's what it says. So we need to start, you know, start, you know, hanging them. I mean, once you once you get a couple of them, the rest are going to come back in the line because they don't want that same result. So, yeah, that's. That's what people got to start doing. You got to get out there. You got to get engaged. You got to start bringing notice to all that. And I was going to talk about something else today. I was going to talk about the fact that now that the birthright citizen thing has passed the U.S. Supreme Court, we're looking forward to seeing what Humphreys should be coming up next and for them to overturn that, which coincides with the Chevron doctrine. And so I was going to talk about the APA. Well, let's start. We've got about ten minutes left, so let's start. Can you cover any of it in that amount of time? I mean, the technical difficulties we had were unfortunate this morning. Yeah, I can carry it on. I can get started, and next week we can continue it. That'd be great. So let me pull up a screen here. And thanks for coming on early, Don. We were having some technical difficulties and wasn't sure how to get Mike back on here again. But it's the Internet. The Internet's been real flaky. I wasn't sure how to get on back on myself. Yeah. It's one of those things you just give it your best shot and then pray and jump, right? Yes. Back in twenty twenty twenty one, I put together a campaign called And the campaign was against the APA. The APA is the Administrative Procedures Act, And I had put together this thing and the prelude to the initial campaign to bring awareness to it. I had put out three three documents that were that was going around being shared and they were called Know Your Rights, How to Stop Socialism and Where's the Contract? So what I like to do is kind of resurrect it a little bit here and I can start it today, I can finish it next week. And this is important for everybody to understand what the APA is and how it's being used and why it's being used and the importance of Humphreys being overturned by the US Supreme Court and how this will change the dynamics of how everything is working today. So again, this was back in twenty twenty one. And this thing will lead into something. And the results that we received or I received from our own state legislators is going to shock the hell out of you. So to know your rights. I stay, I'm a business owner in Michigan, and on December ninth, I beat Governor Whitmer's mass mandate, and here's what I did. In a meeting with the prosecutor's office, case number, I informed him that I would plead not guilty. I was demanding a jury trial, and I had three witnesses that I needed to depose. The prosecutor asked who my witnesses were, and I stated the Michigan governor, the attorney general, and the state medical expert on COVID-XIX, Dr. Kalanam. I can't pronounce that. Anyway, the prosecutor couldn't dismiss the case fast enough. They do not want these political officials to pose because of the fraud that they had placed upon the people, and it will be exposed. With that said, it seems that every day when I turn on the news, I hear a bunch of opinionated rhetoric about what we should do or should not be doing as it relates to our everyday way of life. Every news channel and every single politician has their own medical expert giving their opinion on what everyone should or should not be doing. So how do we know which opinion to follow and believe? taking into account that nobody has presented any documentation, which they refer to as the science, to substantiate or prove the opinion to be sound advice. In addition, all the mandates and rules that have been issued by our politicians, in reality, are based upon emotion and are designed to make you feel guilty for not complying with what they are telling you. I think it's time that we as Americans take a step back and re-examine what we are being told to do by our own politicians. It's time for everyone to know your rights. And as a citizen of the United States of America, the information that I'm about to provide here is based upon the U.S. Constitution, the Michigan Constitution, Bill of Rights, and the rule of law. To begin, let's look at the mask, which according to some medical experts is being required or mandated that everyone needs to be wearing at all times, indoors, outdoors, doesn't matter. Our politicians are telling us that wearing a mask saves lives. And if you don't wear a mask, you could kill someone. For any politician to mandate the wearing of a mask as a means of controlling the COVID-Nineteen virus, that politician is giving you specific medical advice as it pertains to a specific virus, which means that politician is giving you medical advice without a license to practice medicine. And I'm sure there are those who will argue that point is being moot. However, If it was you giving the medical advice without a license, would you be prosecuted? Putting that aside, what is more important is knowing your rights as it pertains to receiving medical advice from anyone. Under Michigan law, you have the right to refuse medical treatment and medical advice. According to the Public Health Code, Acts, three sixty eight of nineteen seventy eight, the MCL three three three point two zero two zero one subpart two F, a patient or resident is entitled to refuse treatment to the extent provided by law and to be informed of the consequences of that refusal. If a refusal of treatment prevents a health fatality or I'm sorry, prevents a health facility or agency or its staff from providing appropriate care according to ethical and professional standards the relationship with the patient or resident may be terminated upon reasonable notice. In addition, MCL. three three three two oh two oh one two G a patient or resident is entitled to exercise his or her rights as a patient or resident and as a citizen and to this end may present grievances or recommended changes to policies and services on behalf of himself or herself or others to health facilities or agency staff to government officials or to another person or his or her choice within or outside health facility or agency, free from restraint, interference, coercion, discrimination, or reprisal. A patient or resident is entitled to information about the health facility's or agency's policies and procedures for initiation, review, and resolution of patient's or resident's complaints. For the governor to threaten citizens with fines, fees, or the shutting down of someone's business is a violation of law according to MCL. The rights and responsibilities prescribed in section and are guidelines for health facilities, facility staff, facility employees, patients, residents, and individuals shall not be civilly or criminally liable for failure to comply with those sections. Section two, two O two O one and two O two shall not be construed to expand or diminish other remedies at law available to a patient or resident under the color, under this code and the statutory and common laws of the state. Furthermore, the governor and other public officials has failed to obtain written consent from the citizen to proceed with mask mandates. Informed consent is defined. Although the specific definition of informed consent may vary from state to state, it basically means that a physician or other medical provider must tell a patient all of the potential benefits, risks, and alternatives involved in any surgical procedure, medical procedure, or other course of treatment and must obtain patient's written consent to proceed. Therefore, every citizen has a right to refuse the wearing of a mask or to follow any other medical advice given to them by the governor or any other public official based upon the Michigan laws stated above. When the governor issued the executive orders closing down the state of Michigan, the governor violated several laws and deprived the citizens of Michigan of their inalienable rights that are protected by the US Constitution and Bill of Rights. Furthermore, the attorney general has supported the actions of the governor in these violations of law. As a result, the governor and the attorney general of Michigan are in a violation of eighteen USC two forty two deprivation of rights under the color of law. And they're also in violation of eighteen USC two forty one conspiracy against rights. The governor, attorney general and health department are instituting and insisting that they have the right and the authority to force citizens and businesses to comply with their unconstitutional orders under the pretext of the health and safety of the public anytime they so demand. However, the orders that they are issuing violate the constitutional right of the citizens and businesses under the Fourth and Fourteenth Amendments. The Fourth Amendment states the right of the people to secure in their persons, houses, papers and effects against unreasonable searches and seizures shall not be violated and no warrants shall issue upon probable cause supported by oath or affirmation and particularly describing the place to be searched and the persons or things to be seized. The Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution made applicable to the states through the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment Map v. Ohio guarantees to all persons the rights of privacy free from unreasonable state intrusion. In addition, the administrative searches or inspections such as those under consideration in the instant inquiry which were conducted outside the judicial process without consent and without prior approval as evidenced by the administrative search warrant are not reasonable unless a showing can be made that the administrative search or inspection falls within one of the well-established exceptions to this rule. I cite a bunch of case law in there. Furthermore, both businesses or commercial premises and private residents are afforded protection from unreasonable searches by Article I, Section XI of the State Constitution and the Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, in which the U.S. Supreme Court held that administrative inspections of commercial structures as well as private residences are forbidden by the Fourth Amendment and conducted without a warrant. The orders that have been issued by the governor and health department are not a legislative law and therefore cannot be enforced as such. Furthermore, on May of twenty eighteen, the United States Supreme Court in unanimous decision opined. That few protections are essential to individual liberty as the right to be free from unreasonable searches and seizures for the United States, twenty eighteen. The court explained that the framers made the right explicit to the Bill of Rights following their experience with the indigenous and invasions of privacy wrought by general warrants and warrantless searches that had so alienated the colonists and had helped speed the movement for independence. Every mindful of the Fourth Amendment in its history, the court has viewed with disfavor practices that permit police officials unbridled discretion to rummage at will among a person's private effects. It's really gotten so out of hand. I mean, look at what they did to President Trump. You can see so many examples of this, their invasions, and the fact that they just take what they want. I mean, we have that here in Byron Township. They don't give a rip about the residents here. They just do whatever they want. It's the townships. It's the police. It's everything. And I'm I'm a pro law enforcement. I am. But guys, clean your own houses out. You know, you can't just if you've got this nonsense going on, you can't just be part of an organization or part of a company and just go along to get along. If something's wrong, you've got to address it. It's a big problem. How much more do you have written there? There's a little bit more. Do you want to continue on or do you want to pick this up again next week? We can pick it up next week. We can go into more detail on it. Because I've got to bring this merits an entire hour to go over this because this is a good subject to cover. Yeah, this is the Know Your Rights. And then I also did one on stopping socialism and where's the contract, which will probably interest you the most. Yeah. And then that leads into the campaign against the APA. And I did it in a series of postings that led up to the Fourth of July of that year. And a declaration was issued to all of our state representatives. And the results will be very interesting to everybody. That's going to be great because I want to show you a video of our current project going on with the excavator blocking my egress from my property. Guy turned his machine off, left, and I couldn't get out. And I had to go chase somebody down the road. And their excuse was, oh, he's a very nice old man. He's been working in construction forty five years. I'm like going. And he blocked my driveway and the egress. They use all these little pity me things. Oh, he's such a nice person. They're such a nice person. To justify them breaking or violating your rights. The same thing happened with the masks. We're going to go back to what you were talking about. Oh, you don't want to kill grandma, do you? And all that sort of nonsense. I had a warrant for the arrest of the governor and the attorney general. for what they did putting elderly into the nursing homes, okay? The reason why is because, well, we got these with COVID over here and those without COVID over here. Here's the problem. The ventilation system was all the same, okay? When that furnace kicked on or the air conditioner kicked on, it's circulating all that stuff throughout the entire building. It didn't matter which room you were in. It's still the same ventilation system. It's a joke. It was absurd. It was a joke. Yeah. So, well, I appreciate you coming on. I've got Dawn here. I'm going to bring her on in a minute. And I'm trying to hold it to our segments right now just because that way... Unfortunately, I really wish that the audio and the video hadn't gone out on us when you came on because... These are fundamentally important issues going on around us every day. It's in every township of the state of Michigan. I talked to an FBI guy and he said, you are witnessing a township takeover of the state of Michigan. And because people don't know their rights, they don't know how to fight them. But do you have any last words here? And I'm going to go to a quick break and then we'll come back. Just got to get out there, get engaged. Don't be afraid. Don't be afraid. And there's strength in numbers and we're gathering numbers. And they know it. They see it coming. They're panicking because if they weren't panicking, if they were solid in their position, they wouldn't be acting and doing what they're doing right now and what they're doing is deliberately going out of their way, depriving you of your rights. They don't care. They're being extremely abrasive, very flat out in your face about it. And that's a sign of desperation on their part. I think things are getting ready to change rapidly here. We're going to see. I'll be right back after a fifty second, fifty seven second break. Thanks for being on today, Mike, and I'll see you next Tuesday. Real good. Thanks. Good morning and welcome to the third hour of Brandenburg News Network. I am Donna Brandenburg. It is the seventh day of April, twenty twenty six. And my friend, Don Beaty. How are you doing today, Don? I'm great. How you doing, my friend? Doing great. Did you see this? We got to talk about this this morning. I think this is very interesting. It's a post by Donald Trump, President Donald J. Trump, who and it was out. The funny thing is, is I got this at ten twenty six this morning and I was reading it before. But this is the timestamp on it is one oh six p.m. today, which I thought was very, very interesting. And so but the the whole thing is is worth considering. The whole civilization will die. A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don't want that to happen, but it probably will. However, now that we have complete and total regime change, why do we have a capital C, capital T, capital R, capital C? I don't know. But there you go. Where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen. Who knows? We will find out tonight one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the world. Forty-seven years of extortion, corruption, and death will finally end. God bless the great people of Iran. And I'm going to jump back to this because we go from that to the one before. And this doesn't even sound like President Trump. Praise be to God. You want my opinion? Yeah, I do. All right. I like Donald Trump. I like what he's doing. I did not like that post. I don't know his reason behind it or whoever posted it, but I don't think that was a really good Easter message. I think you can get your point across without dropping the F bombs and the B bombs and, you know, threaten to annihilate an entire civilization. Aside from that, I'm really hoping that, you know, I know he's a showman. I like, you know, he likes to poke the bear. I think, you know, it's an intimidation tactic. So further opinion, I will wait to see what happens today. That's exactly how I feel about it. There's a it's kind of interesting. You know, it goes into that whole thing is if you trust God, you just don't panic. You don't get too excited about things, you know, and until you know you've got a problem. Why get your emotions all tied up? Seems kind of ignorant to me, really, because you can sit there and jump around and be crazy for a long time. But if you trust God, you're stable. So what are we going to talk about today? We've got lots to talk about. I've really enjoyed our segment last week. I thought you did a wonderful job. And of course, we're friends, so I always enjoy talking with you. But what's on your mind right now? I honestly, you know, yes, because come on. So whatever you want to talk about, you know, I'm able. I really just, you know, I prayed on it, you know, and I want the Lord to speak through me. I want them to be his words, not mine. But one thing I was thinking about is just discussing what I mean by having faith. Like if you're if you're. acted all kinds of crazy you're acting ungodly in the name of politics it shows a lack of faith and i think for some people who may not understand what i mean i could explain it a little better and i'm looking at it this way if you were never involved in politics it didn't become your world like a lot of people who are you know that that are involved in it as much as as you and i are you woke up one day and you're concerned about what's going on in the world Your first thing to do, it should be as a Christian to go to the Lord. Now, again, the Bible says three hundred and sixty five times, do not worry. To worry is to say God does not have this. I don't trust God's will. I don't trust that he's going to protect me. OK, so with that said, I would wake up if I wasn't and then that would bring me at peace. I'm going to remember that God is in control. God is in control. Whatever happens in Iran, God is in control. Whatever happens to our market, God is in control of whether or not I have food on my table or money in my wallet. OK, so with that said, now going into politics and, you know, working on campaigns, you know, of course, we should be involved in our civic duty. You know what I'm saying? But I think it'd be more influential. than necessarily strategical. Because again, the Bible states that the Lord raises up leaders, which he says are kings, but we don't have kings nowadays, and he removes them. God has already determined who's going to win every single election from now until Christ's return. And the only way that we can change that, he says, is if we pray and change for our wicked ways, he'll heal our nation. We are to pray. This is a spiritual battle. We cannot win a spiritual battle by earthly means. So what I mean by faith is, so if you think you have to go off half-cocked on your own and come up with a strategy to beat the other person and use tactics such as slander or gossip or straight-up lies or manipulation in order to make sure that your candidate wins, Is that what Jesus would do? Because again, with all things in our life, we should stop and think, what would Jesus do? And I don't think that's what Jesus is do. So, you know, if you're willing to ask God, For politics, that's between you and God. But as far as I'm concerned, you know what I'm saying? Politics has become an idol for a lot of people, and we are trying on our own to change world events that he has already predetermined. And when you are working in direct conflict with the Holy Spirit or the will of God, you're spinning your wheels, you're becoming frustrated, and you're lashing out and acting out in a way that is not glorifying him. Well, what you're saying is that the ends don't justify the means that you can do whatever you want to get to your goal. And that's exactly what it is. It's your goal. It's like, What what is God? What does God really want? It's usually it's usually something we don't even think of because we're not that smart. OK, it's like that's just the way it is. He's got the view of everything. We've got the view of this little tiny bit that's in front of us. How many times have you received a blessing and you're like, I did not see that coming? You know, I couldn't have predicted the outcome to whatever I was just worrying about. at all like he is the greatest author of all time he's got the greatest plot twist and he brings in the greatest blessings but you will lose those blessings if you don't rely on him have faith in him and let him determine the outcome he doesn't need your help that's why the bible says be still and know i'm god be still i got this if anything you are Messing with his plan. You know what I'm saying? So, for example, if you were, you know, whipping. That's not an excuse for just sitting on your butt either. OK, exactly. You know, I'm still I still help with friends campaigns. You know what I'm saying? We still need righteous leadership because the Bible calls for righteous leadership. And if it isn't the church, who's the righteous leadership? You know, we are to be involved if it's his will. Sometimes he has you run for a different reason. The outcome may not be what you want. But then when you look into every situation, instead of saying, why did this happen and try to pick apart what good came of it, then you can see the reasoning. We don't always know why he has us do what we do. But in the end, if we there's no lies, we don't have to know why he's in control. You win by losing. exactly because he had different plans for you maybe for example for you running for governor maybe it wasn't necessary to be for governor but it was for this platform you know what i'm saying to get your name out there you know there's there's been times in my life where i just couldn't figure out what god was thinking and why this was happening and you know i mean like i recently had a tragedy in my family and that was the most devastating time of my life but i came out of it stronger I was able to see the blessings in it. And I saw how God works so much good into my life and blessed me with so much peace and strength that now my relationship with him is strengthened. I'm back to kind of the person I was before I got into politics because it can start to change you. You know, if you're going to be in politics, they say politics are dirty, but they don't have to be. We make it dirty. The devil makes it dirty. You know, we're not supposed to be like the world. You know, we have to be in there and be the light in politics. And that's what I'm hoping to do at this point. And again, I'm not suddenly, you know, St. Don, Lord knows that I have my fair share of issues. But I really feel it's not as much as the outcome that I want hearts to change, but for their own walk with Christ, because it's detrimental to your walk. When you're acting like the world and you're acting ungodly in the name of anything, including politics, that's when it becomes an idol. Yeah. And I don't know if for people that maybe haven't been involved in politics, it's an interesting culture. I'm going to tell you, it's an industry. And the major parties, they really, I know there's a lot of good people in them. They're trying to help. They really are. But once you've been in it for a while, you realize that it functions like a cult culture. They're vetting people. They only allow people to get to the top who play ball with them and protect the power structure or have a money interest. That really is very true. It's not just in D.C. It's in every state. It's in every county. Every township. Every township. They've got townships that are doing it now. And the way the townships are doing it in the townships is by, say, like, the monopolies for energy, water, and resources. That is the quickest way to see what's happening is look at what they're doing with the resources that God gave to us, not to them that they want to control. You know, we've got a consumer's energy monopoly. We've got a DTE energy monopoly in the state where now they're building the water wars, the water wars monopoly in the state of Michigan to control your water. And once they get that complete, that's pretty much that would be pretty much the last straw. But with that said, I don't believe that's the way it's going to go. I really don't. But I think that we're finding the people who are predisposed to victimize other people and do it in order to control them in order to hurt them. you know, in order to, you know, shove them in the little box and pull them out to play with them when they want to, you know what I mean? It's like, it's like, that's, that's the reality. People, people that, that desire power or money, they should have neither because they can't, they awesome responsibility that comes with it. And I think that's why God gives gifts. God gives gifts to some people because they won't use it for evil. He gives gifts based on, will you give it away or use those gifts to help others? Or is it just to build yourself a castle and look down on your subjects and hold it over their heads? And that is so wrong. These people in these positions, you know, acting wickedly for their own gain and the gain of their friends and, you know, in their best interest. But we don't fight back out of revenge. We don't fight back by earthly means. We don't become them in order to beat them. That's the problem that we're having. You know what I'm saying? What you need to do is change the hearts and minds that listen to them. You know what I'm saying? And to pray. OK, because God has put these people, even if they have local office, they still were raised up by God for a reason. And I'm seeing cracks in it. Even Macomb County cracks in the power structure in Macomb County. And it's good. OK, so I mean, people I think he's slowly revealing the truth. You know, people even at the lowest level, the people where they're seeing. you know what's really going on and again the bible states that satan is the god of this world these these structures are his that were put up for control the reason you know like you said uh god gave us the the the plants and the animals yet you have to have a license to fish But at the same time, we have to follow the laws of God and to give to Caesar what is Caesar's when it comes to our taxes. However, it doesn't mean the point is we still do that. If we obey the laws that as long don't go against biblical laws, he will then provide our fish. Well, think about this. I'm going to expand this. Give them what when Jesus said, give to Caesar what is due to Caesar. That may have some real broad, broad consequences for people that have broken the law. You know, what do they deserve? The majority of them deserve to be prosecuted for treason. That's what they deserve and what they're entitled to for breaking the God's law for breaking, you know, for following evil and that sort of thing. I mean, we have a responsibility to do the right thing. I don't care what anybody says. And when you see people justify their behavior by saying, well, everybody does it. No, not everybody does it. The ones that you are looking at to justify your behavior are doing it maybe. But that's not an excuse. We still know the difference between right and wrong. They have to chart that course based on what God's telling us individually. There's no excuse for it. And you know what? The funny thing is, is that people can try to mess with God and mock him with that because that's mocking God. It really is. He's going to sit back there. I can tell you what he's going to do. As a good father, he's going to sit back there and watch you get your behind handed to you through natural consequences. And God, why I was doing your will. No, you weren't. No, you weren't. And he didn't ask what my will was. Right. He's going to look at you and go, how's that working for you? How did that work for you? Did you did your way? And I think that's what we're seeing in the United States right now. We kicked God out of our society. He didn't leave us. We left him because we thought we had the plan and we didn't have the plan at all. We have a fallen plan. And instead of humbling ourselves in front of God before God and asking him, I screwed up. We all screwed up. What do you want us to do? How do we fix this? How do we bring things back into a right relationship with you as our father in the head? Not us. We just proved we're unqualified for the job. Yeah. So now what what do you want us to do? Well, it's what you're losing as well. So, again, I go back because this is the main reason that I kind of, you know, I'm still going to be involved, like I said, in helping friends and and things like that on their campaigns. But being involved in party politics like done, you know, I'm not Republican, Democrat, tomato, tomato, same thing, different name. You know, and it's kind of like for years, you always knew for president, for example, if you made it to the general election, you were pretty much bought and paid for. You know, you were placed there for a reason because you're going to do the bidding of the powers that be. Yeah. You put the time in and you prove that you will listen to orders rather than doing what's right. That's why the second someone grassroots or whatnot wants to come in that hasn't, you know, kissed the ring or whatnot, they fight vehemently to make sure that that person is ostracized, that their character is assassinated. I mean, it's wicked. And the thing is, the church is getting involved in this. And guess what, guys? Yes. You might have been ugly and nasty and you can, oh, well, this says it, so it must be true. Or look, it's a picture, so it's got to be correct. Whatever you added to the deceit, the deception, the lies, the slander of that person, just because your candidate might have won didn't mean it was anything that you did. God had already determined that guy was going to win. But guess what? And you're celebrating. But what did you do? You lost a blessing and you sinned against God. You know, so we just need to reprioritize. But somebody asked me today, you know, are you going to talk about Iran? I'm like, I hope not, because I'm not paying attention. And you know why? Because I don't care. I'm not worried about it. I don't think World War Three is going to break out. And if it does, God's got me. I cannot spend my life obsessing over the news and freaking out. That's not what God's will for me, whatever he has planned tomorrow, it's in his hands. And I'm, there's nothing that I can do to change it. So I am not going to lose sleep over it. Well, it's like looking, looking in and the financial stuff that's out there, you know, people are going crazy every day. Now I follow some of this. I do. I follow mildly. I follow the stuff in, in Iran and that sort of thing. I followed when, the pilot was, you know, when pilots were down, I just kind of wanted to know what was going on there with that. Cause I cared about them as a person, but, but once again, God handled it and it's going to be okay. The, the problem that we compound, we compound the problem when we lose our minds and stop thinking, stop putting our faith in God. And then not only do we have a panic or a situation, it's like in any crisis, right? If you go into a crisis and you're not thinking, you're going to make it worse. I've used this example because I like horses, of course, and see the difference. But in the Grand Canyon, if you go to the Grand Canyon, they have mule rides down. You can take mules down into the canyon. so the logical question is is why mules why not horses why do they why do they put mules on the trail because mules when they get spooked if a chipmunk you know jumps out at them and and god forbid hits them they're gonna freeze They're going to stop. They're going to look around and they're not going to move, but they're just going to stand there for a minute. A horse, if a chipmunk jumped at them, they jump right off of the trail, right to their death. They don't think they react and they cause a much bigger problem. And, you know, they see the chipmunk as a lion. It's not a lion. It's a chipmunk. From aspects, fear is mind over matter. I choose joy. Absolutely. You know, when I came out of, you know, and I'm still going to struggle with the tragedy that happened to me recently, the rest of my life. It is what it is. But people wonder, like, you're handling this so well. It's not that I don't care because I don't, you know, focus a lot. Don't you love that excuse when something bad happens? Well, you're cold. You just don't care that sort of thing. It's like, no, I'm not going to be part of the truth. I'm not going to go into idiot world. I'm going to sit there and be able to think so we can handle things instead of who emotes the most wins the contest to be true. I don't want to be sad. I don't want to be fearful. I don't want to be angry. I choose joy. you know the joy that surpasses all understanding there's no that's exactly what that scripture means if you can walk out of a tragedy with joy in your heart if you have joy in your heart throughout that tragedy that is exactly what it means by joy that surpasses all understanding it doesn't make any sense i don't care if it doesn't make any sense i'd rather have joy so rather than freak out about oh my gosh if this person doesn't win an election the world is going to end is it really Has the world ended yet? Because they've been saying that every election since the beginning of time. OK, so it's not going to end because that person you elected is not Donald Trump isn't in control. Donald Trump, I believe, is used by God, which is why I respect Donald Trump. Oh, he's this. He swears he's that. Well, David was an adulterer who put Uriah on the front lines to be murdered. But he was a man after God's own heart because he was imprinted. He can use if he can use little David against giant Goliath. You know, he'll use anybody in order to, I mean, literally dude. When Trump ran initially, I was like, what? The dude from The Apprentice? No, I'm not supporting the dude from The Apprentice. Are you guys kidding me right now? You know, Jesse Ventura, the dude from The Apprentice? But literally three months in, when he started actually doing what he said he would do, which politicians usually don't, I was like, all right. And the more I looked into him and the more I did research and stuff, I could see. And then the discernment that the Lord placed on me, I'm like, he's using this man because wicked doesn't reveal wicked. OK, so, yeah, we're not getting where we want to be with Epstein and other things like that. But he was revealing truth that I mean, I've been down this rabbit hole for twenty, thirty years regarding sex trafficking and all this other jazz. But we're to be in mainstream media right now. It's amazing. OK. And the Bible says that, you know, we're going to be much blinded until the time in the end times. And then he'll slowly reveal the truth about, you know, the mystery Babylon. And he is slowly revealing that we live in a Truman show. And our lives and this world isn't what you think it is. These people that you look up to, whether it be politicians or Hollywood, not who you think they are. OK, so the devil isn't going to go in there and reveal all his deception and his wickedness and his evilness. That is of God. And that is what this administration is doing. Now, I may not always like what he says. I may not always understand what Trump is doing. But again, if he's doing the will of God, I'm going to sit back, relax and enjoy the ride and wait for the outcome. It's the people that jump on social media and they're like, like, like, relax. You know, have you learned this dude? Like he'll put stuff out there for shock value. It's ruffles and feathers. I mean, come on. Who would have thought we would have Democrats screaming for the Epstein files? Like he had to make them, he had to mess with them to get them to be like, yeah, we want to see Pepsi bottles. When that happened, I was like, you're brilliant. That can only come from God. Yes. It's really fun to watch a whole society change and change of thought processes. The reality is, is that we have to stand as one nation under God, not a whole bunch of little tribes or factions or put a label on it. It doesn't matter what it is. You know, I, I don't even like the terms. I don't like the terms Democrats or Republicans because the parties should be illegal. They should be outlawed because of the foreign money that they've taken in the elections. And President Washington, he said it. He said it at the beginning. He said there should be no political parties because it's too easy to hack. And what they do, they keep us fighting each other. Instead of let's look at the solutions it's going to take. When you talk to anybody, no matter what label they have on them, it's ridiculous. Most people want the same thing. It's how we get there that we disagree with. Well, if we're not biased on how we get there and we don't have to be right, we'll go immediately to go, all right, I'll listen to a Democrat solution. I'll listen to a Republican solution. I'll listen to this. That's how I used to do it. Like I said before, I voted for Ross Perot in ninety two because I'm like and then I was a Ron Paul Republican in two thousand seven. I was like, all right, because I've always been independent up until Trump. And I was like, all right, I'm going to watch the Republican debates just now. I'm be open minded. And I'm listening to these guys. And then here's Ron Paul, like this guy. Why aren't these guys saying what this guy is saying? Now, he wasn't the chosen one because I wasn't manipulated by how I'm supposed to think and how I'm supposed to vote. Because if you don't, you're an idiot. So, I mean, I'm listening to this guy. I'm like, yeah, stay out of my business. Stay out of my mess. You know, like, dude, liberty. Bring it. I'm a big fan of liberty. And I support him. But now after Perot, I mean, they came so close to losing their paradigm. that they had to get rid of all the third parties. But one thing you said was the divide, which is a good point to make. There's two pretty... popular quotes and divisions quotes and or scripture the bible says that a house divide among itself you know shall fall or not prosper where on the other hand is divide and conquer okay so division he's warning of divide and conquer and that's what the two-party system is is divide and conquer we're only going to allow these people any platform to speak their way we're not going to make it it's no different than within the republican party that's also a divide and conquer you have your grassroots which are more of your newcomers, your people, believe it or not, with an ounce of integrity who are going in for the right reasons. And then you have your establishment or those that, in some people's opinion, will do what they're told. So you have these dividing factions. And the same thing happens between the Republicans and Democrats and independents and within the party. So you have a group of people that want this grassroots person to win because they feel like they're a person of integrity. They're not going to be bought and paid for. They're not going to go along to get along. And this portion of the faction is going to go crazy after them to make sure that doesn't happen. Well, the Republican Democrat, they want to keep I mean, you see, when they get into office, they don't do anything. We got Republicans in all three parts of D.C. And like I said last week, my life is not any better. You know what I'm saying? I don't know what they're waiting on, you know, and the thing is, but the same thing goes everywhere. with the Republican-Democrat, we can't have these outside independent people on there because they're not part of our club. And so the only way, they came scary close to them losing power with Ross Perot because he was gaining momentum. And the same thing with Ron Paul. He was a Republican and they ostracized him to the point that they made him look like a fool And they were trying to keep him out of debate, saying that he didn't have enough percentages. It's the same thing. So Republicans can't take the high road, like we're the party of God, and yet act like the devil. We try to divide. We've had a couple of meetings with the US Taxpayers Party, and a couple of weeks ago we had a meeting. And, you know, I'm the chairman. And so I was listening to things going on. And I, I try to facilitate things and everybody who shows up puts their input in. But when things devolve into non statesman behavior. And people can't talk to each other. And I've been right up front with it. I'm like, this is not going to happen. And if you tell me you're a Christian or a follower of Christ and a person behaves the way that I've seen in the other political parties, I'm going to call you a liar to your face because people who follow God are not going to get up there. and character assassinate people. They're not going to do it. They're not going to get up there and destroy a human soul just so they can stamp a win in their book of accomplishments for life. It doesn't work that way. And so I'm like, I would stand with no one before I would stand with people that are set against what God intends for us. And that's just the way it is. You know, I feel sorry for people that act that way. And and I'll minister to them for certain. And sometimes the ministry comes with a knock it off. You're acting like, you know, you're acting like you're demon possessed kind of thing, you know. But I would go directly to that person and say, what are you trying to accomplish? How do you how do you think you're going to be taken seriously if you don't act like a statesman? But you act like a rabid badger that's got to win at all costs, including chewing up somebody who gets in the way of you getting to your goal, including their spouse, their children, everything around them. That's not OK. If you can't win honestly with integrity. If you can't win that way, it's not a win. It's a manipulation. It's a lie. Which is the whole two-party system. It's a manipulation to make sure they maintain control. And we're not getting, I mean, if you just had a list, these are all the people running as president. You have, for example, like judges. You just have a list of people. You don't know what they stand for. You actually have to do some research because they're supposed to be non-biased. Well, I think a governor should have to be non-biased. I think a president should have to be non-biased. So guess what? You might have to do some extra work. But again, just because they're part of a political party. So you're losing out on some very good, God fearing candidates because they have manipulated the system that don't have a snowball's chance in hell of winning. But yeah, think about the lack of faith somebody has to have to say, well, I got to have an R behind the name. I got to have a D behind the name because that becomes where your faith is. Really? Well, what have we seen with the behavior that is completely antithetical, diametrically opposed to how God wants us to live? If you can't sit down, if you're a Republican and you can't sit down, down with the Democrat and bring peace into that situation. I'm sorry. There's a big, big problem there. You know, one exercise that I like to do that I did for quite a while is, is to go in and enter in, engage with Democrats and, and, show them how much what we believe is the same. It's more the same. Instead of seeing an R and automatically, you know, get the bows or get the arrows out of the quiver and start stringing your bow here because it's going to be, you know, World War III or IV here right out in front of the coffee shop. That is insanity. Well, even within the party, the thing is, is we're all supposed to – adhere to the same party platform. So if we're all on the same team, why are you eating your own? And the only reason is to make sure that they maintain control and they manipulate. And a lot of people don't realize that they're part of this manipulation. They really believe in their heart. They're doing the right thing. And I get that. And the thing is, so I'm not bashing like good, God-fearing people. Trust me when I say that. But this is just what the Lord has laid on my heart. direction he's putting me in and so be it don't shoot the messenger you got a problem with it take it up with the man upstairs right the thing is is um middle-aged brain fart what was i saying crud um you know is that that's going in and sitting with somebody you disagree with yeah and coming is that did that help It did. But the thing is, is so it's devised in such a way in order for them to maintain control. And they manipulate by saying, oh, again, let's go back to who raises up leaders and who removes them. If we don't vote for John Smith, sorry to any John Smiths out there not calling out names, the Democrats are going to win. Okay. And then you have People that are like, oh, well, we can't have that. Or a vote for a third party is a vote for a Democrat. No, a vote for a third party or whoever I choose to vote for is a vote for Jesus. Because I'm saying, I know this guy doesn't have a chance in hell, but I'm going to do my civic duty. I'm going to vote who I believe most aligns with my Christian beliefs in the United States Constitution. And I'm going to let God do the rest. Right. Well, it's like, it's like, so, so when I hear stuff like that, my first reaction is, is, oh, so the Republican party is your savior? I'm not afraid of the Democrats. Or, or the, the Democrat party is your savior. That's the only way you can win. That's not the only way that you can win. In fact, God likes things that are long shots. Already won. You just have to accept the victory. He likes things that are long shots because you know what it proves? It proves that we won't go right into, you know, well, the Republican Party won, the Democrat Party won. If you let God win in his way, you follow what you know is right. Donald Trump is a prime example. He should have never won in twenty sixteen. Right. Newsweek already had Madam President ready to go out in circulation. You know what I'm saying? Nobody expected that. From the second he came down the elevator, they're like, yeah, there's no way this guy's even going to win the primary. He blew away eleven people who had experience because you have to vote for somebody with experience. Otherwise, the world is going to end. Right. They're not part of the cult. If you don't vote for the person most experienced, then the Democrats are going to win, which would have been Hillary. But guess what? God was like, not today, Satan. And, you know, it wasn't too big to rig because God has a final say. It doesn't matter how many ballots they stuff. It wasn't going to be enough. Now, did Biden win? Yes. Because why? It was God's will. So now we got to see what life could have been like under President Trump. Then he rules in Biden and you're like, oh, crap, we need President Trump again. And then brings Big Daddy T back in, okay, to finish the job that he had started. And how he is using him is not to bring peace to the world, but is to open up the eyes of the people to see the wickedness in their world. We have become so... used to how wicked our world is that we've actually accepted it. And we can't do that as the church because he is at the door and he is, I think he's manipulating the church, putting people in different positions for new battles. Like, you know what I'm saying? Like we're only in certain situations for seasons for his reasons. And I'm talking to a lot of people in the church who feel like the Lord is leading them away from something they're doing now to something else. And that's the way he works. Sometimes we're not listening. We don't want to listen because we're comfortable doing what we're doing in our heart. We feel we're doing the right thing for God, but we're not listening to him as he say, no, I need you over here. Now you are here for a time and a reason. And that's happening to a lot of people, which is telling me that there's something big around the horizon. It's time for us to let go of things of this world, concentrate on things of eternity, make sure that we're gathering as many people to Christ as possible because, you know, he's at the door. We don't have time to worry about things in this world. I don't have time to worry about stupid elections. I don't have... that's not what I'm here for. That's not our, every one of us were put here to, you know, to, to glorify God and reach the lost. And that is like our number one priority in life. Not getting Jack Black elected to, you know, attorney general. Well, and I think the governments are basically, they're in God's hands no matter what happens. But I think he's a lot more interested in us growing up than in our comfort. And when we screw up, when we've proven that we can't handle things, he's going to be like... Yeah, I'm going to, I'm going to, you know, shake things up here a little bit and get you to think, get you to grow up. It's not, hey, I'm going to give you everything, your wildest desire, because that's going to be fantastic. You know, as a parent, you do that to your kids and you're creating a little monster, a little tyrant. A good parent makes sure that their kids know what's right and what's wrong, how to relate to people, put other people's interests first. A lot of times in front of our own, you know, it's like, do you really need to play another video game? Or are you going to go help this person over here who's struggling? Like we don't want to give up on our children. He's not going to give up on us. But if we're listening, sometimes he's really got to do something big to wake you up. Because when you get knocked down to your knees, that's the point that you start to look up. You know what I'm saying? So if you start to drift away from what's important and, you know, that's your relationship with God through Christ, then he's going to, you know, I mean, if he's sitting there for a while trying to get you back on track and you're falling deeper and deeper and backsliding or whatever it is that you may be involved in or you're taking your eye off the prize for some reason, he's not going to just, I'm fine, close the door, walk away. I got other people to worry about. He's always going to be, you're going to be that one. You know what I'm saying? He wants to bring you back. But sometimes he's got to really knock you upside the head, bring you to your knees, have you hit rock bottom to get your attention. Because we are, we are so, I mean, you have, I'm guilty of it. I'm on my phone all day. That's why if you ever call me or text me, I call or text right back because it's in my hand. That's an issue I got to deal with. But we're so distracted by so much in this world. The more technology we have, the more distractions. I mean, think about it. Back in Little House on the Prairie days, you know, sorry, you had to use a lantern at night. The lights went out, you know, you had nothing but read and they read the word. You know what I'm saying? They didn't have the distractions. They had to do what they had to do in daily life. They had to go out and hunt and gather or whatever it is they did, go to the marketplace. But we and that is that that is the enemy. I mean, technology is a blessing and a curse. You know what I'm saying? So I love God. I believe in God. I have faith in God. But if I'm not having a relationship with God, then I'm no good to him. And so that's why everything we do, everything we say, every way we act, we have to first take a step back. Don't be so passionate. Don't be so excitable. Don't be so paranoid. What would Jesus do? And pray. Ask him, what should I do in this situation? Sometimes he might just be like, sit down and shut up. You're not helping me at all. Be still and know that I am God. OK, so we got to take it down a notch. We are not manipulating elections. We're not saving the world. I don't have that much power to determine who's going to win what. I don't care. Again, I will help people because if it's God's will, they will win. But that's why I don't like to work. I won't work on any campaigns where it's dirty. I refuse to do it, whether it's paid or unpaid. If that person if I don't believe in that person, I think that they can win on their own merit. I don't want anything to do with it. You know, I don't I have proven on time and time again, you know, with different positions that I've had where I was paid, where I walked away from paid positions to do what was right. And because guess what? God is the one who provides my needs, my financial needs, my health needs, my roof over my head. Everything comes from him. All he asks is for me to be obedient. Right. I'm going to go back to this a minute. And, you know, because this kind of stuff comes out all the time. But the point being is it's like, OK, a whole civilization might die tonight. Is it? a civilization that we think is this whole post is pointing to Iran, or is it the deep state that's at war with their own people? Because if you look at, you know, it may not, it may come to nothing. We don't know, but I don't think the Iranian people are the problem. I think it's this global transnational crime syndicate that has installed itself over the top of all the countries. And, They eliminated borders a long time ago. Every country, including the United States and Israel. We are not blameless. I mean, that's a whole different world. Look at the Zionism that's going on. Look at the things that have invaded all of the structures, all of the entities. They don't win the way traditionally we think. They win by infiltrating everything. and spreading the poison that comes with them. They get us fighting against each other instead of standing there and being thoughtful, responding, but not reacting. They will get in there and sit back and watch us destroy everything around us, thinking that we're doing the right thing or being virtue signaling or justifying the ends by the means, the whole thing. And they sit back and they're laughing. Because if they can get us fighting, they keep us from looking at who the real problem is. And so if we stop looking at gender, we stop looking at race, we stop looking at, you know, different ethnic backgrounds, all of this stuff that's out there or ideologies, isms, any of the isms that think that they're in the right all the time. They're not. They're not. It's a human construction. And we start looking at things the way that God wants us to look at them and saying, Did you bring peace to every situation you've entered into? Even like these posts. Okay. I know he didn't pray and say, Lord, tell me what to put on truth because that would not have been the final answer. The date stamps got me here. Okay. I'm sorry. Or the timestamp. Right now it's eleven forty six. And this is I wonder if he's somewhere in another time zone or whoever wrote it is in another time zone. Doesn't even none of it sounds like him. But at any rate, we've got a different point is I'm not going to lose. I don't like it. I'm not a fan of ways. But the content itself, you know, the destruction and all this, dude, I'm going to wait. Because, again, more often than not, a civilization will not be destroyed. You know, it's it's it's just. Well, I'm going to take issue of that with you because I don't know if you've heard about the fourth turning. And the fourth turning is that we're at the two hundred and fiftieth year of the United States. And almost every civilization collapses after two hundred fifty years. I mean, I don't think Iran is going to be gone. Like every person in Iran is going to be dead today, like from a nuclear bomb or something. That's what I'm thinking as far as the end of the civilization. When I think it ends a civilization, it's to me, I think of the power structure ending. And you know what? There's a lot of power structures out there that need to end because. Look at Rome and Mesopotamia and all the way back. Those were like the, and United States has held on for two hundred fifty years. It was probably longer than, you know, than most, you know, of these power structures or whatnot. But I think when our end comes is when Christ returns. There's not going to be change in that. Yeah, well. I would hope you're right. That would be great. Because it's like today would be a great day for Jesus to come back. That would be fantastic. I mean, that would be an amazing time. I look forward to that day. Yeah, but if it doesn't, the main thing is that we need to be found faithful to the end, no matter what comes. No matter if things are the way we want it, the things that we don't want to go that way. God sees everything. God's seen the human trafficking going on. God's seen the injustice and the justice issues. In our alleged Justice Department, which we know is not just at all. God has seen what the politicians have done, what the corporate heads have done and such. He's seen every act in every one of our lives. And he even allowed it to go on. And so he's got a plan. I don't it's not my plan. I don't know what the plan is. I can draw the punches, man. I trust him. Whatever plan is going to be good, whatever God's plan is, the plan is going to be good because he's good all the time. That's what I know. But even going on over and I ran, I don't. I know there's more than meets the eye. OK, yes, we're not starting a new war. As far as I'm concerned, we're ending a war that's been going on for nearly fifty years. But you know what I'm saying? This is a military operation. OK, so they're not going to tell us everything that's going on. And some things I believe that they have to just kind of stretch the truth a little. Because if they really said they were going to get in the way and we'll wreck what that what what is going in a good direction. I do believe that. You know, I hate to say it's happening. It's God's plan. And I am not losing sleep because I believe whatever is going over there is not only for the good of the people of Iran, but the good of the world. OK, because draining the swamp just doesn't mean you're fired. It means like you're pulled out of a position of authority. You are removed from the as the problem. And this is a global pandemic of wickedness. And only God. I mean, I don't care. how much you like Trump. He doesn't have the power to take down the deep state that's been manipulating our lives since the beginning of civilization. This is a demonic force and he's using his fallen angels along with wicked people are willing to do his bidding to manipulate our lives forever. We have been in bondage. We have been enslaved to these people since the beginning of time. And Donald Trump doesn't have the power anymore than I have the power to change an election to take these people down. You know, I believe that these people are doing the will of God with the assistance of God to make change. And we just have to sit back and trust in God. The results. We're going to say the prayer for today. Pardon me? Let's say our prayer and we're going to go ahead and end it and go to our next day. And then I'd like you to be on next week because I'm sure we can come up with more things to talk about. Because the faith part of it is, you know, the part of it of our relationship with God is faith. is the thing we need to focus on when things are good or bad. If we're not, if we're not focused there, we've lost. So go ahead and let's say, let's say prayer. Have you pray today again? That was great. I love it. Oh, sure. All right. Dear Heavenly Father, Lord, in the name of Jesus, we praise you and we thank you for your goodness, your kindness, and your tender mercies. Lord God, I thank you for this opportunity, Lord, to share your word, Lord, and your will for our lives, Lord God. I pray, Lord, that people that are listening will be open to an understanding of what it is that you're trying to speak through me, through Donna, Lord God. I thank you for this platform, Lord. I pray that you will continue to watch over and bless us and protect us. from the enemy of this world Lord God I pray their hearts and minds to be changed Lord God I pray that everybody will turn their eyes towards you and and go back to their first love remember who is truly in charge of this world that we live in Lord that everybody will be focused on you and have a biblical mindset Lord God I pray that you will continue and watch over and protect the church Lord God that you will strengthen us that you will give us more opportunities to share your truth Lord We pray that you will watch over and protect each and every person that are watching this today, Lord God, and that they will have the strength and the boldness to go out and speak truth and wisdom to a lost world, Lord God.

And we pray that the people that you have on the front line that are exposing wickedness, that were taken down, evil establishments, Lord God, I pray that you will give them strength, Lord, and protection as they continue to do your will. I pray this all in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen. Amen. Thank you. Well, there we go. So that's the time of the show, boys and girls. We go to ding, ding, ding, ding. My protest because they cheated and I will never concede to cheaters, liars and thieves. So go to brandenburgforgovernor.com because I'm the best non-conceiver who's ever not conceded in the history of the United States of America. And I'd like to have a discussion with the rightful president of the United States, president LJ Trump, cowboy boots. I wear them better because I wear them every day. And then we kind of like, you know, talk about real stuff. So with that said, everybody have a great day today. Remember God is in control. We don't need to be, it's okay. It's going to be okay. Relax, have peace, have yourself a cup of coffee. You know, just chill out, go sit with a friend for a while and, you know, and celebrate those things that bring you joy. Think on those things that are good. God tells us to do that in the Bible. And they're good, that are pure, that are worthy of your time. Don't stress over the rest of this. We don't even know if any of this is true. He's already told you, put your burdens on me. Well, okay. I don't have to worry about it. I'm cool with that. All the deep fakes, all the masks, all that. How do you know anything you've seen is true up to this point? Unless it's right next to you. We don't know. So you know what? I know God's true. I know that goodness is true. I know the difference between good and evil. So I'm going to good today. That's what we're doing. It's full time on planning on being in the lane of good. So anyhow. God bless you all. God bless all those whom you love and God bless America. Make it a great day. If you, you know, if you don't have a good example, go be one. Okay. That's the thing today. Go be the example that you don't see. That's how you change the world. Stand aligned on and we'll see. I don't know if I'm going to be on tomorrow or not, guys. We'll see how it goes. I've got this little cough going on right now, so I might just rest. So at any rate, have a great day.
