Most families will take a road trip this summer. And a new report ranks the worst-run cities in the nation. I'll let you take a guess if they're run by Democrats or not. Also coming up the message of the day, but first, Donald Trump returning to the Capitol for the first time since Joe Biden's inauguration. The former president will speak with donors in D.C. on July 26th. He's reportedly decided whether to launch another bid for the White House. Do you want him to run again or not?

He's expected to announce his decision this fall. Trump's raised roughly $150 million since leaving. office. Meanwhile, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis also meeting with donors in Utah for a potential run for the presidency himself. A survey from Gallup finds 50% of the public believes America has poor moral values. Who's the 50% who thinks things are going swell? That's up 18% since 2004. A third say our values are fair. 78% think society is getting worse. Just 12% think the culture is good. Okay, there you go. Folks blame the moral decay on lack of religion. Poor parenting, the media, and a sense of entitlement.

Less than 1% of voters think that the USA is in excellent condition. Oh, I can't wait for you here. The last segment of the O'Reilly update. The someone you might not know. The cost of gas won't keep Americans trapped indoors this summer. A poll from AAA shows 70% of families are planning a road trip in the months ahead.

Good night. The message of the day. We're going to talk about a Greek word malacos. And we'll end it with the story of a man, Myers Anderson, who had such an incredible impact on this country. We all need to know him and thank him. That's coming up. Moments away. Let's face it, the U.S. economy is under stress. National debt rising, trade war, shaking the markets.

Are you as concerned as I am about passivity, particularly passivity of men? The Uvalde, Texas Elementary School shooting, of course.

Did you ever think we'd see police standby for over an hour when children are getting shot inside of a school? arresting mothers instead. Did you ever think you'd see the day? We have CDC and FDA doctors and scientists, so frustrated with the political hackery of their bosses, but as one FDA scientist said, I don't like any of this, but I just need to make it to my retirement.

Just go along to get along. I saw a video of a woman getting punched and kicked by a giant man in a stairwell, left for dead. And right after, two seconds later, two younger men, walked up the stairs, and they were annoyed because the woman was in the way of the door. They couldn't open the door with her near lifeless body in the way. So they kind of pushed her away and went on with their day. John Bolton the other day on CNN said he's been a part of planning coup d'etaz.

There are a lot of work, don't you know? And everyone's like, oh, yeah, that's fine. What? Drag Queen's story hours in our schools. Sure, no problem. I could go on and on. We've been bombarded with so much nonsense just over the last few years. We're becoming numb to it all, and this is not good.

We get numb to the little things, and then we get numb to the big things. We need to resensitize ourselves to evil. We've become too passive. We've become too soft. Let me back it up here a second. In 1 Corinthians 6, Paul includes a list of people who will not inherit the kingdom of God. Now, he actually lists nine things. There's nine Greek words in this list.

But most translations only include eight. So there's nine Greek words, but only eight English words. Many translations leave out one of the words. It's Molokos, M-A-L-A-K-O-S, M-A-K-O-S, in Greek. It means effeminate. Now, there's a lot of different definitions. Usually, it is used to describe the men. who are on the receiving end of, well, the thing that follows, those who practice homosexuality.

That's the next in the list. Many translations combine those two separate Greek words into one thing. But Malacos is more than just that. It could be a male prostitute. It could be a young boy kept for that type of reason. Like Nero, Nero Roman Emperor, he murdered his second wife. Well, he murdered his first wife, too, and his mom. But he murdered his second wife and then felt bad about it.

So he castrated a boy. Boris and married him and dressed the boy up as his wife and paraded him around the city. Nero was the emperor when Paul was in prison in Rome. So this is the kind of thing that was rampant when Paul wrote this stuff. But generally, the word Malacos means soft. It's the opposite of masculine. Morally, it's a man of self-indulgence, self-centeredness. Aristotle, hundreds of years prior to Paul, wrote of the deliberate avoidance of pain is a kind of softness.

malacos men who are used to luxury pleasure and indulgence it's a moral concept putting yourself above others seeking easy pleasure over the pain of doing what's good and right for others in your family and your country you've heard of the hard times cycle strong men create good times those good times though create weak men and the weak men create hard times and i love the next phase we're entering into the hard times phase and this is good because hard times create strong men. But we need you, men. We need you to step up always. Don't be passive. Don't go soft. Don't be Malacos. More coming up. Hey, it's Sean Spicer from the Sean Spicer Show podcast.

I want to tell you about a man, Myers Anderson. He had two grandsons. They were born dirt poor, literally raised on dirt floors in Savannah, Georgia. The oldest brother, born in 1948. The two boys moved to the city of Savannah and life was even worse there. No indoor plumbing.

The older brother was in charge of emptying the chamber pot each morning. At one time he fell down the stairs and the chamber pot and its contents came tumbling after on top of him. He had no shower to wash it off. He hated life in the city, even more than being dirt poor in the country. At least in the country you could fish and forage for food. He never went hungry in the country. Alas, his mom had to move into Grandpa's house, Meyer Anderson's house. He put all of his belongings in a grocery bag and walked to Grandpa's house. And his grandpa sat him and his brother down and said, Your vacation is over.

And the young man thought, what vacation? My job is to empty the chamber pot. But Grandpa was strict. Grandma's always right. I'm in charge. Rules and regulations, manners and behavior. Grandpa had nine months of education, one room schoolhouse in the third grade, but he had a work ethic.

He cut wood at night. sold it during the day. He brought his grandsons with him to work in an oil truck. He took the heater out of the truck because he said it'll make you weak Malacos. You don't want to get too comfortable. You know, today people say, do as I say, not as I do. Not Myers-Anderson. He told his boys, I will never tell you to do as I say. I will always tell you to do as I do. He moved his family to a farm just so the boys could learn hard work and the value of delayed gratification. When the young men would deliver vegetables to their relatives and neighbors. Grandpa would tell them that you wouldn't be in a position to give to others if you didn't work this hard yourself. Grandpa taught

his grandsons that life is hard. There'll be challenges ahead. You need work ethic, self-discipline, a set of morals to get you through life, and I'll give them to you. This young man, born on a dirt floor in Savannah, Georgia, his name's Clarence, and he went on to become a Supreme Court Justice, Clarence Thomas. Think of the influence that Myers-Anderson, a descendant of slaves, no formal education, but piles of wisdom and discipline. Consider the impact that this man had on a young Clarence Thomas, and therefore the influence that this one man had on the United States of America. Something that could only happen in America. As Clarence later said, they had figured out the essentials of life, my grandma and grandpa. It was their victory. They had won. They had

been proven right. Hard work works. More coming up. I'm Caitlin Becker, the host of the New York Postcast, and I've got exactly what you need to start your weekdays.
