Relatable with Allie Beth Stuckey - Ep 1073 | Is Chappell Roan Kinda Based?

Episode Date: September 25, 2024

Today we’re looking at NFL legend Tony Dungy’s response to Kamala Harris’ statement that one doesn’t need to “abandon their faith” to support abortion. He also called out the NAACP lies about Florida’s Amendment 4, and we explain why he’s absolutely right. Then, we check in with some crazy celebrity Kamala endorsements — Jennifer Lawrence and Hayley Williams of Paramore backed Kamala, and you probably won’t be surprised at why. Yet one celebrity known for her leftist beliefs has refused to: Chappell Roan decided she can’t endorse Kamala Harris and that, while she’ll likely vote for her, she’s skeptical of all politicians. We also check in on some illegal immigration crime that has haunted the country in the past few weeks and explain why it’s so important for us to understand the gravity of this issue in particular.

NFL legend Tony Dungey fires back at Kamala Harris over her takes on abortion and faith. Also, celebrities surprise, surprise are endorsing Kamala Harris. You won't believe why. And also illegal immigration continues to wreak havoc across our cities in the United States. And I will give you my take on all of that and more on today's episode of Relatable. It's brought to by our friends at Good Ranchers. Go to good ranchers.com. is Code Alley at checkout. That's go to Manters.com code Alley.

Hey guys, welcome to relatable. Happy Wednesday. I had to think about what day it was. Hope everyone has had a wonderful week so far. One thing I wanted to follow up on on yesterday's episode, I think at one point I included some commentary by someone about Steve Lawson's quote unquote inappropriate relationship. If you haven't listened to or watched the You can go back to see what I'm talking about, but someone said sexual sin in relation to the Steve Lawson scandal. And I do want to clarify that we don't know if it was a sexual relationship and actually from what I have gathered from people who actually really know. And even taking my own advice from yesterday to look at every single word that was chosen in

these statements knowing that they were chosen purposely, I do not think that he has confessed to sexual sin with this young woman. It seems to me that it was some kind of romantic relationship, and that is why they chose the words inappropriate relationship. I think that vagueness has created a lot of confusion and has sparked a lot of unfortunate questions. And that, And that's just kind of what happens when specificity is lacking, although I understand the kind of tug of war there that a church is trying to balance and not feeding into gossip by giving too many details, but also trying to be as clear as possible. So I don't think that it was a sexual relationship or at least that he has not fessed up to a sexual relationship. But I also don't think that he confessed this relationship by his own volition. I actually think from what I'm gathering that he is still kind of in denial about the severity of the situation.

So I just wanted to kind of add those caveats there on yesterday's episode. and again, just encourage us. And even as we get into the topics that we are addressing today, which in some ways are anxiety-inducing as we just look at the chaos of our world and try to answer them as answer the chaos as biblically as possible, that Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever, and that he is completely trustworthy. Someone whose faith I admire so much,

who has been unapologetic in standing up for Christian values and advancing the cause of Christ in his fear is Tony Dungey. He is the legendary NFL coach. And I met Tony Dungey several years ago. The PR firm that I worked for represented All Pro Dad. And I had a very brief interaction with him that I'm sure he would not remember, but he was extremely kind to me, this very new, low-level publicist. And I remember the impression that he made on me.

And that's an important lesson for all of us, that even those seemingly mundane interactions can have a lasting impact on a person for better or for worse. And the interaction that I had with Tony Dungey, someone as famous and notable as him, has left a really good impression on me all of these years. And so it doesn't surprise me that he is speaking boldly against the evil thing. statements of Kamala Harris. On September 19th, Kamala Harris posted to X a statement that she is frequently made in her pro-abortion speeches. She said one does not have to abandon their faith or deeply held beliefs to agree. The government and certainly Donald Trump should not be telling a woman what to do with her body. Here's what she said in the debate against Donald Trump a couple weeks ago, sought one. And let us all agree, one does not have to abandon their faith or deeply

held beliefs to agree the government should not be telling her what to do with her body. Okay, so that was actually from a rally speech, but she said the exact same thing in her debate with Donald Trump. And we responded to that at the time and said, yes, you absolutely do. You have to suspend your faith to advocate for the right, the legal right to slaughter unborn image bearers of God. You absolutely do. Faith in Christ and the support of access to abortion are contradictory. They simply cannot go hand in hand. You will have to suspend your belief in Christian principles in order to support something like that. But Kamala Harris, of course, is trying via toxic empathy to get that female evangelical

votes to convince you just like Satan would that supporting the right to abortion is actually a Christian belief. It's actually somehow in accordance with the Bible. Tony Dungey responded to her post on Acts on September 19th saying this. Dear Vice President Harris, I hear you make this statement all the time. Exactly what faith are you talking about when you say you don't have to abandon it to support abortion? Are you talking about the Christian faith that says all babies are made in the image of God, that God places them in the womb, Jeremiah 1-5, and that we should not take any life unjustly, Luke 1820? Are you talking about that faith or some nebulous general faith that says we're good enough and smart enough to make our own decisions? What faith are you talking about? So solid. And he's someone who is not just pro-life in word, but pro-life indeed. Coach Dungey is an outspoken Christian who has fostered over 100 children and adopted eight children with his wife. And so I think he knows something about the dignity of these

unwanted children that they deserve better, that they are entitled to more than being slaughtered. inside the womb. He also called out the NAACP for abortion disinformation, and he brought attention to Florida's Amendment 4. Remember, you should vote no on Amendment 4. Amendment 4 would allow abortion through all nine months for virtually any reason in the state of Florida. There's lots of disinformation out there about Amendment 4. It is not about allowing miscarriage care. It is not about allowing women the health care they need in tragic situations. it is about allowing abortion for any reason. The NAACP said on X, for the record, you cannot have an abortion in the ninth month.

You cannot have an abortion after birth. If we didn't keep any books, maybe we wouldn't have to clear that up. And that post by the NAACP had 119,000 likes. Tony Dungey responded by saying, and Florida, we will be voting on a amendment for this November that would take all limits off timing of abortion. If it passes, we would become the 10th state where that type of late-term abortion would be legal. Please don't distort the facts to make a point. Of course, he is absolutely right. Abortion is allowed through all nine months for virtually any reason in nine states right now.

And yes, infanticide after birth does happen. That's what Ralph Northam was talking about a few years ago when he was governor of Virginia. That's what's happened. And Tim Walz's state of Minnesota because of the laws that he has passed, the rabidly, radically pro-abortion laws that he has signed in the state of Minnesota, at least eight babies who survived abortion have died due to neglect and what should be considered malpractice. Remember, Kamala Harris voted against in 2019 as Senator, the Born Alive Infant Survivor's Protection Act, which did not restrict abortion in any way, but simply said that babies who survive abortions have to be given health care. She voted no on that.

So if that's not something that happens, why not protect those babies just in case? It doesn't go far enough to say the Democrats are the party of abortion. They are the party of infanticide. That's what it is. And good for Tony Dungey for calling this out. I really appreciate his courage. I appreciate his boldness. More people should be speaking up.

When you've gotten to that level, you really don't have. have anything to lose. Again, look at someone like Harrison Butker, the kicker for the chiefs, who got in so much trouble when he made those comments about stay-at-home moms at the graduation speech a few months ago, he just signed like a $25 million contract a few weeks ago. Like, y'all will be fine. Stand up for the most vulnerable. So thank you so much, Tony Dungey, just for your courage. Courage is contagious. May more people be inspired by this and keep speaking the truth on behalf of the most vulnerable, as Christians have always been called to do. He said this in one of his books. It's his first book, Quiet Strength, where he talks about

the importance of standing up for our faith. He said, being stubborn is a virtue when you're right. It's only a character flaw when you're wrong. You should not be open. minded to evil and lies. And by the way, a really good indicator that you're wrong, that you're on the wrong side of things is if you have to constantly lie to defend your position. If you have to constantly use euphemisms to defend your position. If you get angry when someone tells you the facts about your position, the pro-abortion position, what actually goes on in the procedure, what abortion really looks like, then maybe it's because you're on the wrong side. We're really healthcare. Abortion activists wouldn't get so angry when you tell them what an abortion looks like and how it works.

So again, thank you, Tony Dungy. May we all be that bold. All right. Let me pause and tell you about our first sponsor for the day. It's Adele Natural Cosmetics.

short days. Those of you who are facing the hurricane, I am praying for you. I am praying that you can fly to Dallas, that you can get there. And I am praying that that hurricane would not hinder anyone from being at Share the Arrows. I know some of you have rescheduled your flights to get to Dallas earlier. And if any of you out there can do that if you're coming from Florida or even anywhere in the southeast, if you can, I know that's not that easy. It's easier said than done. Then I would look into that just to be safe. Going home should be fine, but getting to Dallas could be a little bit of trouble. And gosh, I'm just praying for that so much. I do have an announcement about Share the Arrows.

150 tickets are left. Only 150 tickets, y'all. This is a huge auditorium. And so I'm so thankful we are able to accommodate the many thousands of you that are going to be there. But we're about to reach mass capacity, max capacity. And so we only have 150 tickets left. I would go right now if you've been waiting around, wondering if you should go, especially if you're local to Dallas or if you live in Oklahoma or Arkansas.

Arkansas, you can make the drive. I would just go ahead and do it. You're not going to regret it. You can go to share the arrows.com. You can use my code, all caps, Alley 15. That'll give you 15% off general admission. If you want to meet the speakers, you could get a VIP ticket and all access ticket. If you want to meet just me, you can get a breakfast ticket. All of those options are available. We've got Candace Cameron Buret, Rosaria Butterfield, Lisa Childers, Abby Halberstadt, music by Francesca Bataelli. I can't sleep at night right now because I'm thinking about this. In some ways it's stress and thinking about all these details. And then on the other, and it's just pure excitement to see you guys to worship with you guys to finally experience this. We have been working by the grace of God so hard on all of this.

And it's our first ever event. And so I'm praying everything goes well. but the team that's behind this has been putting so much creativity and so much effort into every single aspect of share the arrows. And I just hope that it serves Christian women well. Again, if you're not going to be there or if you are going to be there, please pray for us. Pray for us this week. Pray for all attendees.

Pray for all the staff, all the volunteers. Pray for the speakers as well. Pray for Francesca. Pray that God would be glorified and that he would protect us and give us his grace and mercy as we come together and learn together and worship together. All right. We unfortunately have to talk about some silliness that's going on in Hollywood. Now, I know this is surprising to you guys because typically the wisdom that we get from celebrities is so profound. And the life advice that we get from them is so applicable

because their lives are so stable. And they, are moral exemplars. And so it might surprise you to know that the celebrities that we're talking about today have really bad political takes and exhibit zero understanding of what is going on in the political and cultural spheres at all. Some of you might be familiar with Paramore. Haley Williams from Paramore, I had no idea. That was her name. I have never been a Paramore fan. I don't know about Brie. I feel like Brie was a paramour fan. Were you a paramour fan?

No, actually. You weren't. I've never been a paramour fan. Okay. I actively actually kind of don't like their music. Okay. Okay, we're on the same page. I completely misread you and I apologize.

I appreciate that. Thank you. Because, yeah, I have also never been a parent. What about like Florence in the machine? Yeah, I like them. Besides, you know who, she who shall not be named. What other, like, girl artists do you like? Well, I have what one would call basic music taste, I guess.

Like, I like pop music. Yeah. And I like, like, I like 21 pilots. That's, I guess, not pop music. But the, like, alternative music, like pop punk. I never liked that. Oh, really? I was really into, like, the pop punk stuff when I was in high school.

Wow. Yeah, like a little emo. I did dye my hair black. So, yeah, that was part of that. But I also did like, she who shall not be named. Yeah. I listened to her fearless, fearless CD when I was in high school in my little silver Volvo on the way to school.

And, yeah, it was, it's very nostalgic. Anyway, so we've got Paramore here. And Bree and I have never liked her music. And so it's not like we were super disappointed. but she was performing at iHeart Radio Music Festival. When was this? Last Friday in Las Vegas. And she decided to end one of her songs with this just heartstring pulling,

heartfelt speech. Here's Sought 2. 25 is Donald Trump's playbook for the Trump agenda. Just so silly. Obviously it's her right to have that opinion. It's her right to express that opinion. That is the beautiful thing about America is that you are supposed to have free speech. And so I support her right to express her opinion.

But her opinion is really dumb. It is not informed at all. If she were sitting right here on the white couch, I would say, Haley, specifically what do you mean? What do you mean by that? What part of Project 2025 is going to lead us into a dictatorship? What specific tenants proposed in Project 2025 are going to punish women and poor people? Can you explain that specifically for us?

And if you can provide page numbers, I would be awesome because I want to read those policies myself. But also, Donald Trump, I think too much, has disavowed Project 2025. If you can even disavow something that you were never a part of. He wasn't ever a part of Project 2025. I think Project 2025 is generally more conservative than where Donald Trump is. But there's nothing in Project 2025 that is like new or radical. The vast majority of the actual policy proposals in Project 2025 are like mainstream conservative stuff that have been around for decades. And we'll link the episode that we did on Project 2025, busting the myths on all of that. But she is pushing. I don't know if it's disinformation, which would be purposeful. at the very least misinformation. It is absolutely propaganda. She is right that you should show up

to vote. She just is wrong about who you should vote for and why. She has also said, she said this in 2023, just so you know where she stands. If you vote for Ronda Santas, you're effing dead to me. Is that comfortable enough for anyone? Okay. Okay. I worry for her. Why is it that so many women on the left express themselves in mentally unstable ways? Ways that don't come across as rational and peaceful and thought through and kind, but really aggressive and really emotional and really hysterical seeming. I guess that's just a result of propaganda. when you feel really strongly, when you have been manipulated by toxic empathy into thinking that you are standing up for the most vulnerable by being progressive and voting Democrat, that creates in you some kind of like feral, misplaced mama bear feeling like you are this big, bad white savior protector of all of the marginalized communities that Donald Trump is going to, come after and I think that does create a form of hysteria. Here's an analysis that I haven't given

yet that I was going to put in a separate episode and I just hadn't. I just haven't because I haven't had time to write it all out. But I've been thinking about this, about this kind of attitude and the attitude of so many women on the left who are so defensive of their life choices who express so much antipathy towards children and babies and are so passionate about abortion and are so passionate about apparently being these strong, independent women, feminists. Every woman has a baby.

Every woman has a baby. Just not every woman has a human baby. But every woman has this natural instinct to mother. And it is going to be channeled towards something. It could be channeled towards your career. It could be channeled towards your plants. It could be channeled towards your pets. It could be channeled in some ways towards yourself,

the self-infantilization that I think we see among a lot of young people today. But I think that a lot of women also channel that towards the populations that they view as victims. that that kind of motherhood mentality is channeled into their support of liberal policies and they convince themselves that, again, they are defending all of these groups that they patronize and belittle and treat as children. They think that they are truly defending the quote-unquote LGBTQ, the black and brown communities, the immigrant communities. I think it is like misplaced mothering. I think that's one reason why so many women very emotionally and rabidly vote Democrat and support liberal policies. That's probably one of many reasons. And that's really tied into

that toxic empathy piece that we talk about so much that I've written my book on that's out October 15th, the empathy that says you must feel for the victims that the media hoist up and you must not only feel what they feel, but affirm their feelings even at the expense of everyone else involved. So that means the woman who wants an abortion. You have empathy for her so that you are blinded to the reality and the morality or immorality of abortion. You feel so much for the gender deceived man that you affirm his delusions at the expense of the women and girls who become victimized by that at the expense of reality. You feel so much for the two men who say that they want to create a family that you forget about the rights and the well-being of this little motherless child. You feel so much for the plight of the person who traveled across the border illegally to escape.

Colombian gang violence that you are blinded to the rights, to the protection, to the safety of the people who are negatively impacted by illegal immigration. You feel so much for those that you are told are victims of systemic discrimination or systemic racism that you're not even willing to look at the facts about crime or the historical facts about action. Or the historical facts about actual racism and discrimination and justice versus injustice in this country. That's what toxic empathy does. It blinds you to reality and morality. That's why Christians are not called primarily to empathy.

We are called to truth-filled love because love always rejoices with the truth. And it's from that point that we ask, okay, what is good, right, and true when it comes to each of these positions? And I think what we find is that the progressive position on all of the, of these things is actually the most dangerous and the most harmful to the very groups that they say that they are trying to defend. We've got more celebrity endorsements in just a second. Let me pause and tell you about our next sponsor. It's WeHeart Nutrition. They're also going to be at Share the Aeros this weekend. I love them so much. This is another Christian family owned company. They started

this company not only to glorify God, but because of her own health needs, Kristen's own health needs and the desire to create supplements that really work with a woman's body that we can absorb that really help us feel our best. That's been my story with WeHeart Nutrition. I started taking them at the beginning of the year. I've gotten sick a lot less. I haven't had postpartum hair loss. I feel like my hair and my skin and my nails are really healthy, healthier than I've been in a long time. I got blood work back a few weeks ago. My iron levels are looking great for the first time in forever that I can remember. And so I'm thankful for the products at WeHeart Nutrition. I'm so thankful for their heart behind it. They also use the money from WeHeart

Nutrition to help support pro-life pregnancy centers, which of course is near and dear to my heart. You can go to WeHeartnutrition.com, take their quiz, see which supplements are right for you.

I don't even remember where I first heard her song, H-O-T-T-O-G-O. I am not recommending that she listened to that song. But I heard it, I don't know, somewhere. And I was like, well, this is kind of catchy. It's not good at all. It doesn't speak to any good value. So again, I wouldn't recommend it. But I was curious about who this person was, this artist was. I had never heard of her before.

And apparently, Bree has told me she is like a big old lib and LGBTQ advocate, right? She's gay herself, I don't know. And she dresses in drag as a woman. Yeah, her whole brand is like LGBTQ. And I think I haven't heard all of her songs, but every song that I've heard has been about like lesbian relationships. Okay. And she's very sacrilegious too on her page. you can see she's like dressed as a I don't know how else to say this. Well, she's dressed as a

nun, but a very inappropriately dressed none. I will say that instead of the adjective that I was thinking. Well, she's very progressive. And so her fans are angry at her because she has not endorsed Kamala Harris. But she said this to the guardian. I have so many issues with our government in every way. There are so many things that I would want to change so I don't feel pressured to endorse someone. There's problems on both sides. I encourage people to use your critical thinking skills, use your vote, vote small, vote for what's going on in your city. That actually might be the best advice that I have heard from a celebrity, a liberal celebrity. Typically, this is conservative coded language, someone who doesn't want to say that they're voting for

Trump, but she's not. But I'm saying that's typically where it comes from. Not just saying there are issues on both sides, saying vote small, vote for what's going on in your city. She's absolutely right. We shouldn't care this much about who's running for president. It should matter a lot more of what's going on on the local level. Unfortunately, the stakes are just so high when it comes to our federal government. The Harris campaign hasn't shied away from trying to tie itself to Roan's popularity in July, just days after President Joe Biden dropped out of the presidential race and Harris took over as the Democratic candidate. The campaign posted on social media clip of Roan's 2003 song.

Feminine on and on. Did I get it? Feminine on and on? Nominon. Yeah. Anyway, also, she has, I guess she's got

the Midwest Princess merch. Is that like part of her brand? What her, her album is called like Rise and Fall of the Midwest Princess or something. Okay, because she's from Missouri,

I think. Yeah. And they, I guess the Harris Walls campaign kind of have used her merchandise as inspiration. They have this like camo hat with Harris walls on it that looks a lot like her merchandise. In June, Roan revealed that she had declined an invitation to perform at the White House's pride festivities. She later explained to Rolling Stone that she did not

want to be a monkey for pride, summarizing her political outlook as, I'm pretty F the government and F everything that's going on right now. I don't have a sign. because I hate both sides and I'm so embarrassed about everything going on right now. And she said it's not so black and white. You hate one. You like the other. And I think that that's also a really good point. I think people should remember, though,

it is because she is more liberal than the Democrat Party, not because she's somewhere in the middle. You've got a lot of these preteens that probably bully Taylor Swift, also bullying Chapel Rhone, saying this person, I have no idea who this person is, but they've got like a trans flag and a gay flag in their little X handles. The reality is Chapel Rhone is a white feminist on a path of pretending to give an F about people, some other people who were, who's had the same thing that she's old enough to remember Trump's first term. That's another thing about all this. Like Haley Williams being like, do you want to live in a dictatorship?

Did we get anywhere close to that when Donald Trump was president last time? Like y'all remember he was the 45th president of the United States. Do we get anywhere close to living in a dictatorship then? No. So I would love to know, I would love to know your citations here. What are your sources? Why do you think that he is going to bring about a dictatorship? I can actually promise you.

Does that make you feel better? I promise you that he won't. I promise you that he will not. Chappell's recent response clarifying her political beliefs, didn't really make people a whole lot happier. Here's Sot 3. So hear from my mouth, if you're still wondering, no, I'm not voting for Trump.

And yes, I will always question those in power and those making decisions over other people. And I will stand up for what's right and what I believe in. And like, it's always at the forefront of my project. And I'm sorry that you've, fell for the clickbait. She said that her number one issue is trans rights, right? Yeah, she said the change she wants to see in the U.S.

this election year is trans rights. Imagine that being your number one issue. I know. Like, what does that even mean? Like, your number one issue is that you want men to be in women's locker rooms? Number one, like, that is what you will live and die for? Yeah. Okay.

Or, like, what? 12-year-olds getting double mastectomy? that is your number one thing. How to Lulu in your mind do you have to be to think that that is okay, much less your number one priority. And so I just think it's funny how there can be no deviation at all among celebrities without being utterly attacked. They have to give all of these statements.

But I actually think that even though I completely disagree with her on her morality, and ideology. I actually think she gave kind of reasonable responses. And if she stands strong on that and doesn't apologize, I say good job. I can at least respect that. I can respect staying strong, not bowing to peer pressure and not apologizing. So in that sense, good for you. But I do hope that you one day believe in Jesus. Jennifer Lawrence endorsed Kamala Harris. And here's what she said. Abortion is literally on the ballot. The Oscar winning actress told People magazine yesterday, I voted for Kamala Harris because I think she's an amazing candidate. And I know that she will do whatever she can to protect reproductive rights. That's the most important thing is not,

is to not let somebody into the White House who is going to ban abortion. Okay, think again, think about this. Think about this because we Christians, we pro-lifers, are attacked for being one-issue voters for caring so much about abortion. First of all, that's not my only issue. But it is a top issue because you're literally talking about killing babies. But it's actually, the left who has made this, they're one issue. Billy Eilish, Jennifer Lawrence, Steph Curry, the professing Christian, Steph Curry, Taylor Swift. all of these celebrities have said that their number one or one of their top issues in this election is the right to poison and dismember babies.

I mean, just imagine that. We're not talking about reproductive rights. You have the right to reproduce, but you should not have the right to kill the child that you've just reproduced. If you do not want to produce a child, do not have sex. I know that's so radical and people think that's just the most irrational thing. It is literally the most logical thing. If you do not want a baby, don't have sex. Sex is created to make babies. It doesn't always make babies, but that is its purpose in principle.

If you do not want to reproduce, do not do the act of reproduction. Do not make an innocent child pay for the consequences of your choices as an adult. And then we hear the what abouts. Well, what about rape? That accounts for far less than 1% of all abortion cases. Okay, rape is terrible.

I believe in death penalty for rapists, but not for the baby who was conceived in rape. Because I'm not, I'm not an animal. I don't believe in the death penalty for babies. I believe in the death penalty for murderers and for rapists. Of course. called like rightly ordered, a rightly ordered perspective on justice. And so all of these people have a completely warped sense of right and wrong.

It's the complete opposite of what they think is good, right, and true. She pushed this disinformation that people are dying, women are dying. She said, we have to enlighten people's idea of what abortion is and why certain people need abortions, certain people, which ones, I don't know, women, not women, and why it's so important to keep lawmakers out of families and out of people's doctors' offices. These laws are made by random white men, random, not ones that are elected, I guess, random white men. And they're not made by health care providers. Well, some of those legislators are health care providers, by the way. But yeah, that is, I mean, of course, that is the Democratic Republic that we live in, that we have

elected officials that make policy, that write bills that are either signed into law or not, that is this democratic system that you guys said that you care about. And when it comes to a human being that should have a right to life, of course the law should have something to say about that. And you don't actually believe in getting the law out of doctors' offices and out of people's bodies because all of you were for a forced vaccine just a few years ago. So which one is it? Do you actually believe in bodily autonomy when it comes to something like vaccines or do you only believe in so-called bodily autonomy when it comes to ripping children apart? Just curious. All right, we got to talk about a little more news. And I think one of the

biggest reasons to not vote for Kamala Harris. And that is, of course, illegal immigration. Let me pause and tell you about our next sponsor and that is covenant eyes. Covenant eyes is such an important tool for you and your family. If you are fighting for purity, whether you have ever looked at porn or not, whether this is something that is a struggle for you or struggle for someone in your family or something that you just want to prevent, that you want to protect your kids from, you need covenant eyes. In 2016, Barnett conducted a study and found that one in three Christian women were struggling with pornography youths, Christian women. So this is no longer just a male issue, and this is not just a non-Christian issue.

This is something that affects everyone. And so Covenant Eyes has created this amazing resource that is just for women by women. A Rise is a 21-day video series from Covenant Eyes designed specifically for Christian women, help them overcome pornography addiction and begin their journey to sexual healing. Go to ariseforwomen.com. Ariseforwomen.com. Okay. So with all the stories that have come out in the last couple weeks, I mean, gosh, in the last

several years, but especially in the last couple weeks about the violence, the crimes that have been committed by people who have no right to be here, illegal aliens, like I'm saying that I would vote for Donald Trump because of his promise to carry out mass deportations alone. Like that could be my sole reason to vote for Donald Trump. Of course, abortion is my top issue because it's a matter of life and death. Of course, I care about so many other things when it comes to this election and what's at stake. But we can't fight for any of those things if we don't. have a country. And you don't have a country if you don't have sovereignty. And you don't have

sovereignty if you don't have borders. And you don't have borders if you allow people in illegally without consequence. And that is our current system right now that has been purposely created by the Biden administration. This is not just something that accidentally happened. This is a purposeful policy choice by Democrats and some Republicans too. But namely the Biden administration, who has actively undermined every single effort by the state of Texas to guard its own borders, taking away barbed wire, taking away the buoys that have been put in place, ensuring that these illegal aliens, no matter their background, can infiltrate the United States without the fear of deportation, they have been actively bust and flown into several cities across the country.

and this is not, it's not actually just illegal aliens from Mexico or South America. We're talking about from Haiti. We're talking about from Africa. We're talking about from the Middle East, from China. Everywhere around the world, we are seeing these military aged men, many of them on the terrorist watch list, many of them with backgrounds that we don't know about at all. And we will never know about coming into the United States and wreaking havoc. and whether or not they commit a crime after they cross the border illegally is really kind of like irrelevant to me. You don't have a right to be here.

You're not a citizen. You don't have any legal documentation at all. We have absolutely no responsibility whatsoever to allow anyone to be here who wants to be here. There is a legal process to gain citizenship in the United States that should be stringent. It should be difficult. There should be hoops to jump through, but it shouldn't be as difficult as it is for really good, responsible, hardworking people from around the world to become legal citizens when it is this easy to become an illegal alien, to be subsidized by the government, to be shielded from deportation, and in some cases, shielded from incarceration. That is a messed up system. Donald Trump says that he is going to execute a large-scale deportation of violent criminal aliens when he becomes president. That's got me saying, hallelujah, and amen.

I hope and pray that Donald Trump wins just for that issue alone. Let me tell you a little bit about what's been happening. This is from Bill Malugian at Fox News. he is the best reporter on immigration that we've got. He is on the ground almost constantly reporting what's going on there. Four illegal aliens were charged with raping or sexually assaulting Nantucket children and other residents. In a multi-day operation on Nantucket Island, ICE's Boston office announces they arrested four illegal aliens who are charged with raping or sexually assaulting Nantucket children,

all of whom were released from local custody despite the serious charges. Nantucket isn't explicitly a sanctuary jurisdiction, but like in most places in Massachusetts, local officials are progressive. They typically don't report immigrants accused of crimes to immigration authorities. On September 10th, ISIS enforcement and removal operations of Boston arrested 28-year-old Salvadoran illegal alien, Ryan Daniel Adela Aerovalo, who was charged with one count of rape of a child with a 10-year age difference and two counts of indecent assault and battery on a child under 14.

It is unclear when they entered the United States. This arrest by ICE officials came after he was previously arrested and then released on bail by Nantucket District Court on July 29th. And so he had already committed one of these egregious crimes against children. And then he was released from custody because this is what progressives do. When you vote for a Democrat, this is what you get. You get chaos. You get lawlessness. You get violence because they are actively incentivized, I think, by profit to release violent criminals onto the streets.

And if you're asking why most of them probably aren't thinking beyond their funding and their careers, the power that is ensured when they become puppets of Soros and other liberal billionaire activists. But the large-scale goal is absolutely the dissolution and destruction of the United States because a strong United States is a hedge against the global regime. And the takeover that they obviously are trying to accomplish through laws like the one passed in the EU that we talked about with Justin Haskins. Now, if that sounds too fantastical, too conspiratorial to you, I totally understand. I really do if I were in your position and I were just living my life and not reading about this stuff on a daily basis, I would think that too. And maybe it's

just easier for you to believe that. And I understand that as well. But I hate to tell you, it's real. That is what is actually going on here. And that's who Kamala Harris is too. And that is why she pushed these sanctuary city policies, these open border policies, even when she was district attorney of San Francisco, even when she was Attorney General of California. Remember, Kate Steinley died under her watch, under Kamala Harris's watch. Kate Stanley, the young 32-year-old woman in San Francisco who was walking down a pier with her dad one afternoon and an illegal alien shot her in the back. Her last words were, Help Me, Daddy, and she took her last breath. And she died. And that man had a violent criminal history and yet had been arrested and let go multiple times because of San Francisco's sanctuary city policies, which of course Kamala Harris endorses as we have pledged you.

She has said many times, even over the past few years, that crossing the border illegally, should not be considered a crime. If that's the case, then that means that the government has no right to deport illegal aliens. were at best in her mind we're supposed to wait until they rape someone until they sell a child into sex trafficking until they kill someone that's Kamala Harris for you that's who she has always been remember she has been the border czar for the past four years and they're trying to deny that now because it is such chaos

she hasn't even visited the border Lake and Riley, her blood is on Kamala Harris's hands. These are the policies that she has pushed that have led to these horrific crimes, even in a place like Nantucket. We've got another story from this month. Man accused of abducting Manassas girl is an illegal immigrant, and he was captured and released at the southern border. Two weeks ago, 23-year-old Enrique Ramirez Cabrera pulled up

to a girl as she was walking to school, claimed he was a police officer, then pulled her into his car. Shortly after the girl was kidnapped, she was able to escape from her kidnapper by jumping from the car. Praise God. Ramirez Cabreras, allegedly a Peruvian illegal immigrant who was caught at the Arizona border last December and released into the U.S. We even have his picture. And this is a preventable crime. Remember, every single crime committed by an illegal alien is a preventable crime. That is the difference between crimes committed by citizens and crimes committed by these aliens.

Because people point out, oh, well, actually illegal aliens commit fewer crimes than citizens. First of all, we don't know that. They are by definition undocumented. So there's no way for us to have proper statistics, proper data on that. And even if that were true, it doesn't matter. because first of all, they're all criminals because they cross the border illegally. They've already committed a crime.

But even if you excluded that, any crime committed to buy an illegal alien is one too many. We have the right and the responsibility to protect our borders. If a country doesn't want to let anyone in, that is their right. I don't even think that is in principle evil. If a country, say, Zimbabwe, say, China, say Japan. If they decided, you know what, we're going to put a moratorium on immigration and we're

just not accepting anybody right now because we got to take care of our own. We've got a lot going on and we just cannot support more people right now. That's not immoral. That's not unethical. America has been extremely gracious to a fault in our acceptance of immigrants over the years. but every country has a right to manage its immigration policy and you have to have borders to protect your own citizens to protect their rights to protect their well-being. That doesn't mean that every immigrant is a bad person or shouldn't be here. Some of the best people in our lives, some of my favorite people, the hardest working people. Some of the godliest people in our lives is a family that immigrated from Africa and they did so legally and they are citizens and they have the beautiful

family and we love them so much and I wish that there were a million more of them and a million fewer lives in Portland, Oregon. And so it's not about skin color. It's not even necessarily about nationality. It's about protecting your citizens. It's about caring about order. It's about the law. It's about citizenship and what that actually means and the rights that that comes with. You'll remember I posted this on Instagram. The United States House passes a bill, thankfully, requiring, requiring the deportation of illegal immigrants convicted of sex crimes. 158 Democrats voted no. 158 Democrats voted no.

Think about that. That alone is a reason not to vote Democrat. I've got a little more to say about that. Let me tell you about our last sponsor for the day. It's Jace Medical. We don't know what's going to happen in the next few months. You want to make sure that your medical needs are taking care of.

It is a symbol of security, of stability, of protection. Heaven has walls. This idea that Christians have important. imbibed via again toxic empathy that to love our neighbor means preferring the illegal gang member sex trafficker at the expense of our child neighbor is utterly demonic.

Every time Satan is depicted in scripture, he is depicted as an author of chaos. Lawlessness, the man of lawlessness is actually depicted in the end times as stirring up anarchy and hardship. Laws were God's idea. Governments were instituted by God we read in Romans 13 to carry out execution, to use the sword against the wrongdoer and to reward those who are doing good. God is a God of order. God is the God of hierarchies. We see from the beginning that God cares very much about organization. He carries very much about structure.

He has a way of doing things. He has set up particular orders for our good. He defined gender and marriage and family and the value of human life all in the very first chapter of the first book of the Bible. God places the man. and the woman in a garden, not in a jungle, but in a carefully cultivated garden. God is a god of order. From order comes beauty.

From chaos and lawlessness comes pain and destruction. When I look at the policies of Kamala Harris, I see institutionalized degeneracy by her celebration of transgenderism, her celebration of sexual immorality and its consequences, which is the slaughter of unborn children. I see chaos through her open border policy that she has championed her entire career. And when I see Donald Trump as imperfect as he may be,

I see policies that align more with order. And these policies really affect people. These victims of these illegal aliens, their lives matter. It's okay to say that. Countries are like families. Just because you put your family first doesn't mean you hate your neighbors. Just because you lock your doors at night doesn't mean you even distrust your neighbors. It just means that you want to keep your family safe. And in fact, if you didn't have walls in your home, if you didn't lock your door and you allowed strangers into your home to take your children's beds, to eat your children's food, that would not make you loving and kind.

That would make you a horrible parent. That would actually make you very cruel and unwise. I think we can think of our country the same way. God does not call us to have equal love and equal care for all people at all times. we don't have the capacity to do that. That's why he's given us families and communities and why we have cities and states and countries. That's about as big as our love can get.

And we have love for the body of Christ, of course. But he has created these structures because he understands human capacity and borders are one way that allows human beings and societies to thrive. I'm going to vote for the candidate that cares about our borders. All right, that's all we've got time for today. We'll be back here tomorrow.
