Episode 036: The U.S. ASYLUM - Part Won

In this wide-ranging, stream-of-consciousness episode, Jeremiah Gunn reflects on culture, politics, media, and faith through the lens of what he describes as an increasingly “Orwellian” modern world. Drawing references from One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, George Orwell, and personal observations, he argues that language, institutions, and public discourse have been reshaped by social engineering and ideological influence.

Gunn discusses topics including media bias, the role of religion in public life, fatherlessness and social structure, the impact of political leadership, and what he views as the consolidation of power across government, education, and media. He also critiques contemporary political figures, DEI initiatives, and cultural trends, while encouraging listeners to think independently rather than relying on influencers.

The episode closes with a call to action aimed at civic engagement, personal responsibility, and reclaiming cultural and spiritual values. Gunn emphasizes truth-seeking, participation in public life, and the importance of faith and family as foundations for preserving society.

This installment sets up future episodes that will further explore “Christian nationalism,” media influence, and the intersection of politics, culture, and belief.

Good morning, good afternoon, good whatever. Time it is wherever you are. This is the Jeremiah Gunn Show. Thank you. Thank you so much for listening in. I appreciate this very much. You'll never know. You're very welcome. You might. Just happy to have you. Well, that's interesting. Big brother, big mother. So that this is Jeremiah Gunshow. Welcome to the Jeremiah Gunshow. Thank you for listening. This program is dedicated to Charlie Kirk. More on him later. But this is uh CSN, the Common Sense Network, as part of the ISI broadcasting system. So that that opening piece, if you're old enough, you may remember if you were born in the mid-1900s, uh Boomers, et cetera, whatever comes after Boomer. We'll cover that some other time. But we're going to talk about that that that opening theme was from uh One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, which was uh a pretty uh important movie, kind of watershed, um iconic um what's the other word? Um milestone. It was a it's a big, big, big, big deal because it's about life. It's about life, and uh if you if you see it, you'll know that. Now, what what's the connection to today? Today we're in the Orwellian age. It's um George Orwell's world, welcome to it. He tried, he tried and tried to warn it. There's memes that say I literally wrote a book about this, and let's make Orwell fiction again. But uh at some point it stopped being required reading, I'm sure, in the high schools. Uh just like Scott Adams was eventually asked to leave P Pacific Bell because he was doing his cartoon from four till eight in the morning, and uh it wasn't that. He was doing he was covering his bases at work. It's that the management began to get the idea it was about him. So if you're gonna live in an Orwellian world, you can't listen to George Orwell. Well, so how did George Orwell get a start? He uh was a socialist, people will throw that in your face. But um he went and he went and participated in the uh Spanish Civil War, which was the communists against the state, um the right wing, I guess they would call it. And um He saw what communists how they treated the socialists who tried to help, and didn't like it. Well anyway, he he went to work during the war for a ministry, which is what we call departments over here. Department of Defense, they call it the Ministry of Defense, and uh probably spell it with an S instead of an E. But uh but anyway, he he went to work for them and he admired the leaders and the founders and their purpose. I think he was with the BBC and and the Ministry of Defense and all that. He admired the people that were trying to that were that kind of the starters, the movers and shakers of it, but he hated the actual organization. And he said, and this this was very helpful, very therapeutic, very cathartic for me in my career. He said that it's uh he said it would it had basically become a a combination of a girls' school and a and an asylum, a mental asylum. It had become a combination of a girls' school and a mental assignment. And boy did that nail the career world and even the even the blue-collar workforce uh in in in my lifetime. So w why a girls' school? Just, you know, I I never saw Mean Girls by I think Tina Faye, but she she obviously saw that. And uh the pettiness, the cattiness, the backstabbing, the the false um uh poisoned courtesy and all those things. So So one flew over to cuckoo's nest was an asylum. And uh he didn't he didn't belong there, he was just trying to scam the system. But man, if you don't think that uh Hilary Rutten Cl Klingon, for example, is Nurse Ratchet, then you don't understand the game that's being played. When he he said about her to the chief of staff in the hospital when they were evaluating him, he said, she likes a rigged deck, you know? And uh that all of her followers, all of those she was DEI. She was DEI, so was Obama. So don't think if we bring out the word DEI when we're talking about uh Kamala Harris or AOC or I just saw a clip of the mayor of Albany, New York, the capital of New York.

unknown 5:37

Wow.

SPEAKER_01 5:38

I mean it isn't you can't even call it a word salad. It's just this beauty contestant coming up with stuff that she thinks is the right answer, but never never say never saying kind of like Obama when he got his Nobel Prize after eleven days in office. Never said, what am I getting this for again? I I really can't take it. That would that would cast aspersions on the whole process. But they gave one to um Yasha Arafat and they gave one to Jimmy Carter, I guess. I don't know. Anyway. Al Gore, so whatever. But he didn't even have the decency. It's it's sort of like it's sort of like Bill Clinton. Uh they said if he had any decency, he would have resigned, like Nixon, who did much, much less than he ever did. So uh and then the retort to that, the response was, well, if he had any decency, he wouldn't have needed to resign. So anyway, let's let's uh let's let's talk about uh uh let's see. Why do we say this is an asylum? Uh why did DEI create this asylum with Nurse Ratchet in charge? DEI was just a symptom. It's it's like a tumor in the cancer. It's not the whole thing. It's just one of the indicators. It's one of the manifestations of it. And so one one way they've done this to us is they've they attacked the language, Allah George Orwell. So they, you know, they they they made themselves into they being the social engineers. They they took over without firing a shot, and then they they attached the they they began to practice medicine without a license. They attached the word phobia onto everything. Oh, you're Islamophobic, you're homophobic, you're xenophobic. I'm not sure they know what the word xeno means. Stranger. So so so they they think that they think that debate and reason and leadership is snapping the word phobia on the end. I realize that they're practicing medicine without a license. Are isn't phobia uh a mental condition? And all of a sudden they just snapped it on there and they think they won the argument. They just knock it out of the air, dismiss it, define it out of existence, and then say that uh they say, I won, I won. Somebody, I don't know if it was uh Daniel Patrick Moynihan, who was a true liberal Democrat senator from uh New York. He he coined this term defining deviancy down. Defining deviancy down. And and that's one of their one of the uh weapons in their arsenal. They just say, well, that's it's not that bad. It's not that bad. Anyway, I want to make a few corrections. Um I want to make a few corrections like uh I I realize I'm doing this, but not till after I go back and listen to it. W one of them is I'll start talking about something and then go on to something else. So I gotta be a little more disciplined. Uh I I sort of like the stream of consciousness, but also I realize that I'm I'm not finishing a thought and going on to something else. And that's not that's not really perfect, which means mature or good. So so for just one example, as I kept referring to Kamala Harris as a um district attorney when I know she's a attorney general. I know that. The point is still the same. So it it's not a i it it's a brain glitch that happens to you when you either think a lot or get older, or combination of the two. It's not a bug. It's a uh it's a bug, not a feature. The point's still the same. So um, uh another disclaimer I'd like to make is is I I believe in God. I want to make this at the outset. I believe God's greatest creations are dogs, then some women, then some men, and then nature and everything else. Um real women are uh one of our greatest blessings to our country. Not men that are mentally ill and pretend they're women. Not women that want to be men. Um and and want to take you onto their plantation as as a as their slave. I mean that's that's kind of that's not fair. That's not fair, is it? So anyway, why why are we doing this? Basically because nobody's telling you the truth. No nobody's telling you the truth, the whole truth, nothing but the truth. And why is it, you know, the greatest of them all, you know, Dennis Prager, Ben Shapiro, uh Victor Davis Hansen, Thomas Sowell, there's nothing there's nothing wrong. Larry Elder, there's nothing wrong with them. But they're they're they're doing a great, great job, but they don't have all the answers. I've been studying it I've been studying them and this and they and them for my whole life. Really, really devoted to it. You know? I I'm a and and I find out that things well we'll we'll cover them here and there. But um so so if you're wondering, should I listen to him or them, they, her? Um should I do what's really not possible to do is listen to both sides and then make my own decision? I mean if that were even possible, how would that help? How would that help? We have enough judges. We have too many judges. Supreme Court right now is fighting over the Fourteenth Amendment. And the irony involved in that twist is is incredible. Well, maybe we'll cover we'll cover that on another show, but uh who I am, I'm a volunteer who really cares. Do you know anything about me? No? Not yet. Do you know anything about the other influencers you you listen to? You know, first time I ever heard the word influencer, my boss, who was a DEI over her head, treading water and and not not not doing it, she came in my office when I first was transferred to report to her, work under her department, and she said, You're an influencer. You're an influencer, th uh I forget what they call it, 360, above you, people above you, people below you, your peers. Okay? So that but but this idea of an influencer, um I I'm gonna say that you don't need one if you just realize who you are, whose you are, and uh and and and make sure you're not under the influence. Under the influence, you I, useful idiots. That's one of their uh influences and one of our eye problems. Almost every problem we have starts with an eye, you know? Indoctrination, um uh uh uh uh what's that? No uh i identity politics, Israel, Iran, Islam. I mean, every day you're hit with another one, another eye that that's getting in your way. So we gotta we gotta clean up this eye problem. And these influence, they act like they really know. They they they b these banshees, they they bash and they, oh, you're just an angry white male. Well, yeah. Um righteous indignation is a thing. Righteous indignation is a thing. It's not it's not well, you're just an angry white male. You know, after they took they took everything from you. They stole everything. And then they go, oh look at him. He's angry. Um it's you know, th these people from the airwaves, from Congress, they should probably be, you know. Our founding fathers, not mothers, our founding fathers would have you know what they would do to this Congress and this SCOTUS that we think we have? They'd walk in there at they'd send guys in with bayonets and just take them out and say it wrong. This that's not what we wanted. That's not what we set up. So so don't argue for the Constitution or Congress when you've already destroyed it and trashed it. You've captured all the slaves from Obama to Don Lemmon and Colin Kaepernick and Kimmy Kimmel, Bill Maher, all these people, they're on your plantation. And uh you know what it is? It's a function of fatherlessness. It's fatherlessness. That's the problem. Um the definition of pure religion is to um look after the widows and the fatherless. That's it. And to keep yourself unpolluted by the world. That's the Judeo-Christian wisdom literature definition of pure religion. So there was this guy named George Gilder, who was like Daniel Patrick Moynihan, who began to point out the problem with fatherlessness that was brought on really poured gasoline on the fire, a fire that wasn't even there, in the Great Society. Where the uh women were separated from their husbands, the children from the fathers, and uh put on put on the plantation for life. Even Chris Rock said, You you know, you don't if you call your mother Debbie, you're going to jail. And he he said, you know, in the article that was talking about him saying that, it said it said, hey, uh uh a household made of a 45-year-old great-grandmother, 30, 30-year-old mother, and a uh grandmother and a 15-year-old mother is not gonna produce a healthy society. George Gilder, way back in the day, he's a brilliant, brilliant social thinker and philosopher, he wrote uh he he he he wrote that if this trend continues, the fatherless, if this trend continues, we're gonna need an army of social workers to look after the women and children and daughters, and the women and girls, and we're gonna need an army of police to look after the to look after the boys. Bing. You know, we talk about prophets, not people. Prophets, P R O P H E T S. George Gilder was a prophet. I mean, did he nail that? Even Obama mentioned that fatherless. Speaking of a fatherless guy. These guys we had, Bill Clinton, Slick Willie, the first the first black president. Can you imagine the insult? That's that's like Jonathan Liebowitz Stewart calling uh calling mom dummy uh Jackie Robinson. What an insult. Because he wore sunglasses and played the saxophone on Arsenio Hall because he can't be faithful to one woman. What what what was it? What what what made him the first black president? What an insult. But that's all the Democrat Party has ever done is insult blacks. Obama himself he picks the running mate that said that he was the first clean, articulate black to come along. African Americans, blacks, where were ya? What happened? But you don't have to do the OJ thing. I'll explain what that is later, but you you don't have to replace him with Kamala Harris and Jumanji Jackson 5 on the SCOTUS. Just an embarrassment. But but you know, Joe Biden is the same guy. The same guy you pick for your leader. He he's the one who tried to keep Clarence Thomas off the SCOTUS. Uh you talk about a a differently abled imbecile fighting against a a brilliant, brilliant man. But he tried before he had his hair plugs. I don't know. That didn't that didn't hurt his brain. You might speculate that. But anyway. You know? But y y you don't put in Kamala Harris in order to show that and and and Jumanji Jackson 5. She's not the worst one on well, yeah, she is the worst one on the bench, but she's not the only one. Benedict Roberts is no different. He's a DEI leader, and he ought to know better. Anyway, so we the Boomers grew up watching a show called Father Knows Best. Father Knows Best. And then and then now the misinterests. By the way, have you even been told that there's another word for the the counter to misogyny? That there's a there's another word? Anybody ever talk about misinterest? No, just misogyny. It's just proof that the tyrants are dictating the discourse regime, the way we're able to talk. They get they got they took over. They got the uh API, I think American Psychiatric Association, whatever it is, to s to to start saying that wanting to be a father, a provider for your family is sick. It's mentally ill. But but not if your father thinks he's a woman and wants to put on high heels and a wig and stuff. What they used to call transvestite. Now it's just trans. They just they just manipulate your mind? What's that saying? Those that the gods will drive will will destroy, they first drive mad. It's an old Soviet trick. They they they say, Oh, you're mentally ill. Oh, he's got phobia. Hmm. Got a phobia. The woman that was in charge of NPR, PBS, did it to Juan Williams, a minority, Hispanic first name and black black skin. She said he was mentally ill because he made a comment about being a little consternated if he sees a somebody in Islamic garb, Muslim garb, getting on the airplane. She said he was mentally ill. Um you wonder who who's mentally ill in this scenario, in this equation. Anyway, th the the challenge I have here is uh, you know, I have an open open mind, open mic, you know. I do I do a stream of consciousness? I uh or do I have a real rigid structure of things that I wrote down and want you to know. So um you know uh I'm trying to be a stream of consciousness to clear away the unconsciousness. There's a great movie called The Awakenings, and it's uh got Robert De Niro and Robin Williams. Robert De Niro really, I mean he played a fighter and now he's a wuss. He played a uh uh in this one he played somebody who was mentally ill. And now he really is. He's suffering from acute TDS, and he thinks that people want to hear him act like Joe Biden in front of a microphone at a podium, fumbling around. So anyway, in this movie Awakenings. You know, this woman is trying to woman splain or fem splain to him. He's he has recovered through this miracle drug cocktail that uh Robin Williams uh The doctor is administering. And uh they're sitting around the table and they're kind of interviewing him and evaluating him like they did with Jack Nicholson in that scene. And they says, she's and this one woman says, Are you aware of the unconscious hostility you're showing? And he just kind of says, Well, if I if it's unconscious, how could I be aware of it? And some of the smarter doctors laugh. But they can't they can't ruin this DEI queen. But if it's unconscious, how how could I be aware of it? You know, th there's a guy named Al Gore, and his wife Tipper Gore, she was running around trying to make a dent and trying to be what they think modern first ladies have to be to do something. And she she said her thing was depression. Here she is creating, fomenting, injecting people with the with the depression virus, and then she's gonna go around and try and help you. And she did a like a PSA public service announcement and said, you might e you might be depressed and not even know it. It's kind of reminded me of that scene. Well, if it's unconscious, how could it be a worse? So you might be depressed and not even know it. So sign up here, government.gov.gov, and we'll we'll just take care of you cradle to grave, like we did in COVID. We got the wrong people practicing medicine, obviously. So Republicans, conservatives, if you're not a if you're not a conservative, you're not a real Republican. You know, you're a Rand Paul, Ron Paul, that massey from Kentucky. What's wrong with Kentucky? They just can't get they're no better than South Dakota with tune. They can't they can't figure it out. This moment in time, and they're gonna stand in the way like a leftist judge. Stand in the way of real progress, real salvation. They just they they think their job is so I I think that I and I've always said this, it's not enough to call it fake news. That's not really that's that that's thank God he's the first president who ever did that, but that's not enough. That's not enough. So what what they need to do, they really need to do this to the media, which is just a a whorely owned subsidiary of the government, education, media attainment complex. That's what you need to fear. That big business, big government. Big business in bed with big government. Not for military industrial complex. That was kind of a boogeyman that I'll explain later, but that that's just that was a a distraction from the real thing we need to fear. The government, education, media attainment complex. So when these media propaganda shills, uh all the three-letter alphabet letters, when they when they come along, they ask a question. It's not a it's not an ingenuous question. It's disingenuous. It's not intelligent, it's not informed, it's nothing. What they need to what they're trying to do, what i is it's a battle between Pharisees and truth tellers. And so what they used to say is um what what what happened is it says that the the Pharisees that came up to Jesus, and these were the religious authorities, which is what CNN and ABC and PBS and all those, all of them are. They're just Pharisees. They're phonies. That's what that word means. But they have a religious authority that they think they're and they're working for the state, just like the Pharisees. And what they and it says right there in the good book, it says they they weren't really looking for an answer. They were trying to trap him in something that he said, like a lawyer. That's why Jesus said, Woe to you lawyers. They tried to trap him. He knew. He knew their thoughts. He knew what they were trying to do, certainly. You know? And and so they would ask him a question, oh master, how about this? And he would say, and this is what I've always advocated for guys like Trump who come along that never come along, or Rubio or anybody vivaque, anybody that's got their head on straight, they should say, uh what Jesus said, what would Jesus do? This is what he did. Uh uh what he did is a good indication of what he would do. He said, I'm gonna ask you a question first, and if you answer my question, I will answer yours. But if you don't, I won't. I I don't understand why he doesn't, you know, Trump doesn't do this. He calls him fake news, oh you're terrible, your ratings are no good. You know? That's all true. That's good. But it what if he said, um, before I answer that question, have you what what what party do you vote for every single time? Every single election. I mean, it doesn't matter to anybody that they're just completely in bed with one party of our two parties. They're just owned. They're wholly owned subsidiary. Sometimes they pass the talking points to the candidate, sometimes the candidate passes it to them. They're just press secretaries. Like those horrible ones that Biden had. They're not they're not even they're not journalists, they're not the fourth estate. So he should say something like, Well, let me you answer this first. Do you are you a communist? What what how come pa how come journalists don't have to have a little letter D or R next to their name, or C for communist, or S for socialist next to their name? Don't you think it's important if they're gonna be moderating as if if they're gonna be involved in this process? And and you know, the free press, you know, democracy dies in darkness. Yeah. Yeah. PBS. I mean, uh d do they have to be a whore for one party or the other? And you're gonna say you might say Foxes and Drudge Report, whatever, whatever right-wing, you know, they are too. Oh, that that doesn't disprove the point. It doesn't disprove the point. You know, Rush Limbaugh, I never really listened to him, but when he came on the scene, they said they started to get he got a tremendous following because people were hungry for the truth instead of CNN. They were hungry for it. And so he he got this tremendous following and just took over talk radio. And so they the Congress got involved and said, we're gonna dictate the airwaves, we're gonna create a what about equal time? And they had this fairness doctrine, fairness doctrine, fairness. You know, it it's kind of easy living right now because you there's a perfect, perfect reverse barometer. If they say the word fair, they're talking about something unfair. Like when I mean Biden, way back in the day, he told Katie Kurick, another, another one of these great journalists, he told her, uh, yeah, that's right, Kate. Gotta pick people gotta pay their fair share. They gotta pay their fair share. This is coming from a guy who never ever paid his fair share, never learned anything. But they use the word fairness. So they came up with this fairness doctrine, and they actually created a radio network called Air America. I think Al Franken was on it, and it just crashed and burned. But back to Rush Limbaugh, they went to him and go, hey, what about equal time? What about equal time? He said, I am equal time. Brilliant. He was a brilliant guy. Yes, I am equal time. You've got ABC, CBS, PBS, and CBS, which are both at least 67% BS. You've got you got you you own the government networks. It's that's the way it is in Europe. The government owns the networks. So they can just crack down on you. It's just tyranny. He said, I am equal time. But people are looking for us equal time. Not not some shill just reading from a script that was handed to them by the So he should say, Well, I'll ask you a question for and if you wanna they say, Oh, I don't have to tell you what how I voted, that's private. Well then I don't have to tell you what what I'm thinking. I don't have to tell you what how how are you gonna be involved in this thing and not be open about what you are and who you are. You know, people complain about colleges and universities, you know. They donated 95% of their donations went to the Democrat Party. What? And and they don't even want you to bring it up? You're not even supposed to mention it. I mean, they're owned. They're owned. That's why if you strike one, if you tr if Doge how brilliant was Doge, how incredibly brilliant was Doge, how incredibly something that we were praying for our whole life. And and g to get a guy like Elon Musk and a bunch of brainiac young kids in there to give them have a chance to change government and and have an impact on their country? And you just go, oh no, Maxine Waters doesn't like it if you attack the Department of Education. I mean, when you start to strike one, everybody goes nuts. The media comes right in. They didn't find out that there's this salt mine where they're keeping all the records and only they can only bring up as many as fit in the elevator and all that crap that that that the government education media attainment complex was was stealing your money to to run? To just have a bonfire with your money. So, you know, these these these snakes, you know, the high priest phonies like like like Bill William Crystal, you don't know who he is, Romney, you know Cat Timf, you know? It's a spectrum. But it doesn't run from left to right. It runs from right to wrong. And um the evil on the left, it doesn't run from evil on the left to good on the right. It runs from evil. I mean, it runs from evil to good. It's not left to right. This implies this is the smoke and mirrors they're giving you. This is the hypnosis that there's a middle. If there's a left and a right, there's a middle. They don't even want to call them leftists. They want to call them liberals. I think I think we're kind of through that because they're saying we're proud to be leftists. We're proud to be communists, we're proud to be socialists. So if you don't know that those things are evil, you you're not you know, i in a fight, i it's kind of like a front. It's more like a battlefield than a spectrum. And and in a battlefield, there's a no man's land between the two trenches, like what came out of World War I and earlier. There's a DMZ, demilitarized zone, like in Korea still. There's a no man's land. That's an interesting term, isn't it? No man's land. Yeah, that no man's land used to be a man's land. That no man's land used to be France, Holland, Belgium, Poland. But but the left and the right, the good and the bad, the good and the evil, they weren't lined up in the same trench from left to right. So the enemies like like William Crystal or McCain or Romney or or i any of these people, Toon, Thune, whatever his name is, the the deserters and the traitors can just move close to the middle. I I I gotta tell you, i I don't know what you learned about World War I, but they weren't there weren't German soldiers and French and English and American soldiers all in the same trench, just lined up from left to right. There was a no man's land in front. But they they took they've taken everything from you. They have taken everything from you, and they're not telling you this. Who's telling you this? Who's telling you this? Sean Hannity? Uh Candace, Nick Fuentes, Smith, whatever his name, Dave Smith. There's people that are telling you. But um they've taken your they've taken everything from you. Your religion, your country, your heritage. We need to be thinking we need to listening be listening to Sam Adams, not Sam Harris. Sam Adams, one of the Sons of Liberty who did the tea party. How courageous, how brave, how brilliant. He said, if you love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude, than the animated contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands that feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen. They thought a lot about posterity. That's another thing that's been stolen from you. Your posterity relative to them and your children and your grandchildren. Yeah, I I I'm not gonna see the total crash and burn. I'm old enough, like Buckley and others who warned about it, that we're we're not gonna see it happen. But does that mean we shouldn't tell you that it's happening? You know, we need we need William Wilberforce, not William Jefferson Clinton or William Mayer. William Wilberforce was one of the white Christians who uh fought slavery and got rid of it. How much were you taught about him as they overlaid CRT to say that the slaves did everything all by themselves? You know, when they talk about Liberia, Liberia is a country in Africa. It has that name Liberia because it means liberty. And and when they when the British started it, from guys, thankfully guys like William Wilberforce, but the Christian abolitionists in the in the United States, they created a country called Liberia. And uh that's where they took when they would intercept these slave ships, they would take them and bring them and put them there. They'd release them there and give them their own country. They give them their own country, something they never had before. The capital of it was going to be called Christophilus, like like after Christ. But they changed it to Monrovia after James Monroe, our uh fifth president who gave us the Monroe Doctrine. But what does AI do? What is CRT? What is uh critical race theory? What do what do these universities of destruction do? What do they say? Oh, they even Disney gets involved. Oh, this i if you look up Liberia, check it out. Look it up. And it says this was started by uh freed African slaves. It was started for, not by. You think one word makes a difference? What what does it good does it do to pander and and and lie to people? I I'm a truth teller, a secular and religious truth teller. Um I I can tell the truth now. I couldn't in my career, and my sons and my brothers or nephews or whatever, they they they probably can't. I just saw a thing on the on the news today. I think Ben Shapiro posted it. A guy in the NBA. A guy on the NBA got uh kicked out, fired from the Chicago Bulls because he said, I'm I'm not that into having a Pride Month. I'm a Christian. He doesn't have free speech. The NBA are slaves. The owners, the players, they're just slaves. You know, when when I think it was Kurt Flood who started this free agency thing, he he basically said that the owners of baseball teams were are just slaves. It's just slavery. And you say, wow, you're making $10,000 a pitch or a trip to the plate. Not really a slave, are you? But they don't have freedom of speech or freedom of religion. And that's what the First Amendment says. First religion, then speech. It put it ranks them in that order. This guy doesn't have it. Kimi Kimhell does, if he wants to lie and slander and do anything but comedy. He's got freedom of speech. Oh, it's a cold, scary day when a comedian doesn't have. So, you know, I I want to address Christians. I I have to. This is a secular country, but we have a constitution. You can't sell it out. You can't sell it out. The separation of church and state, it it means freedom of religion, not freedom from religion. It's ours. It belongs to us. Our obligations are as a Sam Adams, not Sam Harris, and to Paul and Jesus. You know, the Amish people, they I think they won PA at Pennsylvania. They won Pennsylvania for Trump. They kind of put him over the top. Amish because of a guy named Scott Pressler, who's a kind of a rock and roller, just a brilliant, brilliant patriot who just came alongside Charlie Kirk and started to fight because they realized that they're not going to have a country. They fled persecution from Germany to come here. And now they're being persecuted from Washington, D.C. They're trying to steal our heritage. Just steal it like they do our money. You know, so we're we're Christians. We're we're citizens. C.S. Lewis called it uh amphibians. He called us amphibians, means we're kind of the part fish and part human. That's okay. It's nothing to be ashamed of. But we're here we are in the middle, and you know, in the revolution and the civil war, the the Christians were in the front. They had this black robe division, which was made up of uh um pastors and vicars and things like that. The the the culture war is a holy war. They had songs like Praise the Lord and Pass the Ammunition. These things aren't mutually exclusive. That that's why Pete Hegzeth is having prayer meetings. They they've somehow conditioned you that unless you're secular, unless you're anti-religion, unless it's Islam, then you're you're somehow not you're not a good Christian because you're getting involved in politics. Well, you're involved. You're involved, but you you have a you owe a duty to the the the first the first constitution we had was the Mayflower Compact. And and and and Bradford, and they turned that they turned that colony around. They were refugees from religious persecution. And they came here. But what what are we doing today? We we have eunuchs, it's the eunuch state of America. We have nominal Christians, you know our our birthright is citizenship. We have every right to a religious practice in America as the atheists and agnostics and and secular ACLU and all those people. So what are these what what are we doing? Judeo-Christians, what are you doing? Well, you're acting like Esau. What did Esau do? He what he did was so bad that it was mentioned in the uh it was mentioned in the the the New Testament and the Old Testament, obviously. But what did Esau do? He sold his birthright. He sold his birthright for a a bowl of food. That sound familiar. Kneel down and k you know, lick the hands that feed you, and may your chains. And in the New Testament, it reiterated he really blew it. So I I don't think Christians should be acting like Esau and just sell their birthright. This is your birthright. You know, in in in the election of Slick Willie, fifty percent of Christians didn't vote. Fifty percent of those who did voted for him. You change that either one of those equations, you change them, and we don't have presidents like him and Obama and Biden and Harris and Hillary, they th and Bernie. They're not even in the equation. Shouldn't be. The unqualified and the disqualified, and some are both. They get in because the electorate is unqualified and disqualified. And so, you know, people are pastor of the church I was attending sell us sells us out. He sells out. He sells out his own flock for not the middle and not the righteous, but for the left. And then and then wants to act kind of like Al Gore. Not only am I got rich, I saved the world. Yeah. People talk about Christian nationalism. You know, there's this there's this guy named Knuckle or Craig Knuckle or something. He's there with his son, and he's just egotistically holding forth, talking to Charlie Kirk, and he says, Oh, I I don't like this Christian nationalism. Who that's what we're going to talk about next time. But who what are you talking about, really? What are you talking about? Christian nationalism. Even Bill Maher admits to Charlie Kirk when he had him on that your book showed me that the founding fathers were a lot more Christy than They were a lot more Christy than I ever thought. And Charlie Kirk complimented them and said, Well, I appreciate your honesty, and I thank you very humbly. Because uh there's a lot of pastors who don't know that, who don't get it. So they they glorify themselves by saying, Well, we're we're we're voting for Christ. Well, you know, if he's on the ballot, if he's on the ballot. Somebody said that if Jesus came back and ran for president, he would carry every state. I don't think now. He would carry every state except for Massachusetts and the District of Columbia. Massachusetts used to be the bleeding edge. Now it's California, Michigan, Minnesota. You know? You shouldn't be anti-American and anti-Christian, especially if you call yourself a Christian. But you you don't have to sell out like Esau. Yeah, they they made a quarter, uh, Susan B. Anthony, I think, and and and and it didn't they made a dollar, but it looked like a quarter, and it didn't work. So the warehouse, your beautiful government has warehouses full of her and Harriet Tubman dollars or something that they can't give away. They put them into vending machines so that you have to get a dollar back that way. But they printed them all up and and you know somebody brilliantly said, that's kind of like Christians, you know. They're worth a lot more they're worth a dollar, but they they want to act like they're we're only worth a quarter. That was the problem with that with that attempt at the by the mint. Don't don't sell out your birthright. It's not yours, it's mine. It's ours. It's we the people. It's we the people. You don't have a right to just lay down, give up. That's not what Paul did, that's not what Jesus did. So don't put on a wristband that says, what would Jesus do, and then go do the opposite. And we'll talk next time about the ways that they the ways that they twist their mind around and your mind around to make it okay that they did this. No. Anyway, next time. We'll pick it up right there. Thank you for listening. Thank you. This is the Jeremiah Gunn Show, the uh undocumented expert, Professor Gunn. Thank you. Have hope, but do something. Do something. There's no hope if there's no truth. No truth, no justice, no peace, no love, no nothing. Please listen. It's for us and you. It's not me. It's not for me. I've already heard it before. I say that in humility. But please. We're gonna lose this country. We're gonna lose our families if we haven't already.

SPEAKER_00 48:33

We're gonna lose everything if we can't act like men. Sorry. Don't don't worry about me saying it. Worry about who said it originally.

SPEAKER_01 48:45
