Episode Date: November 5, 2024

Happy Election Day!

We also talk about Kamala Harris' recent celebrity endorsements, including Cardi B, LeBron James, Oprah, and even the Avengers? And of course, we would be remiss if we forgot to mention poor P'Nut the squirrel and the internet's corresponding outrage over his death.

All right, y'all, today is the day. It is Election Day, 2024. We are going to be looking at lots of things today, including some recent endorsements. I will tell you exactly how I feel, how I see things. Bree will also share her thoughts. We've got some highlights and low lights of these campaigns today. And then we will also talk about, of course, the tragedy of peanut the squirrel and what that means about the state of our country. On today's episode of Relatable, which is brought to you by our friends of Good Ranchers. Go to Good Ranchers.com. Use Code Alley at checkout. That's good ranchers.com. Code Alley. Hey, guys, welcome to Relatable. Happy Tuesday.

Hope everyone is having a wonderful week so far. Okay, guys, we made it. It is Election Day. And for the first time in a long time, I am not going to be trying to convince you to vote for a certain person. Now, if you are one of those people who you are listening to this show at, like,

I don't know, 4 p.m. Eastern time. I think that's what time it comes out on the listening side. And then it comes out in the evening on YouTube. And if you, for some reason, have not voted and you are considering not voting in this election or you are considering voting for Kamala Harris and you are listening to me right now and you can still scramble out to your polling location to vote, then I'll just say this. You should vote. You should vote. Okay. Yes, Jesus is coming back, but he's not here yet. You are placed in this temporal physical space for a reason that's to love God and love your neighbor.

Politics is a way to love your neighbor. And living in America in 2024, we get to have a voice in our culture, in our politics, in how things are run. And the way we get to exercise and demonstrate that voice to make our voice heard is to vote. Politics matter because policies matter

because people matter. Okay? and the policies that are put in place by the politicians that we elect affect your neighbor, especially the most vulnerable neighbor, don't vote Democrat. If you're thinking about voting Democrat, you shouldn't do it because you are probably voting on the stated intentions of their policies and thinking that their policies are compassionate for the poor or for the racial minority or for the child. And it's just not true.

You judge a policy by its conclusion, by its outcome, by its effect, not by its stated intention. And if you look at every major city across the country, it has not gotten safer and better and more prosperous as it's gotten more progressive. Instead, it's gotten dirtier and less safe and poorer as its leadership has gotten more progressive. You cannot show me a city that has become more progressive further left in its policies and has gotten actually better in any way for the people living there, especially for the poor communities, the homeless, the drug addicted and the child. We only see increased danger, increased chaos, where we see progressive policies take root.

That is true on the national level. That is true on the local level. Donald Trump is not perfect, but your vote, as Josh Howardton said, the pastor on this couch just last week, is not a sacrament. It is also not a Valentine. It is a strategic choice for the best past. forward. I heard someone say this was great. You're not simply voting for the lesser of two evils. You are voting to lessen evil. And so I just unapologetically am praying that Donald Trump wants.

I am praying that God would have mercy on our nation and that he would allow us to elect the president whose policies best conform to God's definitions of right and wrong, righteousness, and justice. And that is without a question, Donald Trump. We will have stronger borders with Donald Trump. That means fewer violent crimes committed by those who have no right to be here in the first place. We will have, because of his policies that we saw enacted in his first term, a better economy, which will mean more affordable gas and groceries, which is a real game changer for millions of Americans. States will still have the freedom to enact laws that protect unborn children. and there's so much more, including foreign policy, which I think will lend itself to peace much more than Kamala Harris's policies.

Donald Trump in general will reward good and punish evil, whereas we've already seen with the Harris Biden administration by imprisoning pro-lifers in federal prison for blocking entrances to abortion clinics, that they actually reward those who do evil, like the abortion providers, and they punish those who do good. that is an abomination to God that is a curse on a nation and I am praying for God's mercy. However, I also understand that if Kamala Harris, if she does take office and that is a judgment on our nation, that Christian courage will be brighter than ever. It will spread like wildfire throughout the nation and that no power will be able to put it out. And as I said yesterday, from Nero to Newsome, from Herod to Harris, Jesus reigns. gates of hell will not prevail against his church. All right? So that's where we are. That's how I'm

feeling anyway when we're looking at not only what's right in front of us, but when we're looking at the eternal landscape of all of this, God is going to do what he wills. And yet there is this kind of mystery that we in our finite minds can't fully understand that God's sovereignty somehow is interwoven with our responsibility. God's total sovereignty does not negate our responsibility because we see throughout scripture he speaks of his sovereignty, Job 422, nothing can thwart his will. And yet we are told to do things. Like we are told to pray. We are told to evangelize to make disciples of all nations. We are told, for example, in Jeremiah 29, God's people are commanded to seek the welfare of the city that they live in, that they are exiles in, to pray for its welfare because in its

welfare, they found their welfare. And we Christians who are exiles in this world, I believe, are called to do the same thing. And so it's this seeming conundrum that God is completely in control. Nothing can thwart his will. And yet he still chooses to act through our evangelism, our prayer and our obedience. I mean, God certainly didn't need his people to wander the wilderness for 40 years to accomplish what he was going to accomplish. He certainly didn't need them to walk around Jericho seven times before the wall fell. He didn't need to take six days to create the heavens and the earth. And yet God has his processes. He has his ways of doing things. He has these vessels that he chooses to accomplish his will for his own glory and for our good.

And so I don't fully understand this interplay between God's total sovereignty and what we have to do and how God accomplishes his will through our actions and through our obedience. But that's the model that we see throughout scripture. And so that means that we get to obey and we get to do the next right thing. in faith with excellence and for the glory of God in full confidence in God's goodness and trusting in his plan. And as I said, there is nothing that can defeat him or stop him or hold him back in any way. So that's how we're feeling. Okay, I'm done with the spiritual aspect of that for right now. I hope that gives you some encouragement. Let's look at some of the polls, at least this morning, as I am recording this. If we're looking at the swing states,

this is according to 538. Pennsylvania, Trump and Kamala are even right now. Nevada, even. Georgia, Trump plus one. North Carolina, Trump plus one. Michigan. Kamala plus one. Wisconsin. Kamala plus one. Arizona. Trump plus two. New Hampshire. Kamala plus five. And then on and on. Those aren't really that interesting anymore when we look at what the history of Democrats' performance has been in those kinds of states. Florida, Trump plus seven, Virginia, Kamala, plus seven. Yes. Yes. Texas, Trump plus eight, Ohio, Trump plus eight. And then we've got some other very predictable ones, both in red and blue states. California. Kamala plus 25. I think that the state of Ronald Reagan and Richard Nixon has changed just a bit in the past generation. And so that's what we're kind of looking at right now. Republicans are going to have a lot of voters show up today who did not take my advice to early vote, but I hope that they are able to get out there come hell or high water. You've got to get out there. You've got to vote. You can't let anything throw off your.

plans today. Make sure that all of your friends have voted. But, you know, as I said, by the time this comes out, it's probably a little too late. So let's get into some other stuff that doesn't have to do with, you know, convincing people to get out. Because right now we kind of have to just let go and let God. But before we get into some things I want to cover, let me pause and tell you about our first sponsor for the day. And that is Good Ranchers. Y'all, we love Good Ranchers in our home. We are eating their steak and their ground beef. and their chicken almost every single night. It just makes our life so much easier.

We've got a freezer full of all American Good Ranchers meat, and we've always got some in our refrigerator too, so you can easily just pull it out, cook it however we want to. I've actually got my own box, and I've been eating Good Ranchers for a really long time. Right now, Good Ranchers has a Thanksgiving special. You can choose any box of their 100% American meat and wild-caught seafood and get a free 10-pound spiral-cut ham added to it,

for free. That's an amazing deal. They are always giving such amazing deals. They really want this American meat to be totally accessible to you guys. And so they're offering you the spiral cut ham for Thanksgiving when you buy any box. That's worth like $100. That's amazing. Go to good ranchers.com. Use my code Allie to claim a free Thanksgiving ham before they run out. Supplies are limited. Go to ranchers.com code alley. All right. So my girl. Megan Kelly spoke at Trump's rally in Pennsylvania last night. I thought that this was amazing. Like if you remember Trump and Megan Kelly's history,

they don't have a great history. You'll remember at one of the debates in the 2016, Trump versus Hillary election, like the first question that Megan asked right out the gate was about some of the things that Trump had said about women. And then Trump, obviously he didn't like that question, but then Trump went around after that. was saying horrible things about Megan Kelly. And so I think it speaks so much to Megan Kelly's

character and that she really just calls things as she sees them, that she's really an objective person, that she doesn't allow her own personal feelings or personal experiences to get in the way of, one, her journalistic integrity, but two, what she believes is right. Like she is clearly voting based on policy. And I think that she's a really good example for women in that way. And you guys know just personally, I've loved Meg and Kelly. People always ask me, what made you, did you ever think that you were going to do what you do? And I always say, well, I loved Megyn Kelly when I was in middle school and high school. Like, that is what I wanted to do. I wanted to be Megan Kelly, which is not the trajectory of where I went. And I'm very glad.

I didn't go into broadcast. I didn't go to Fox News. That's not what the media landscape looks like today. and I still admire her a whole lot because I just think that she is so bold and one of the best messengers for critical thinking out there. But yeah, so I was excited to listen to her speech. She had a lot of amazing things to say at this Trump rally. I'm going to play a couple clips. Here's Selt one. Number one, immigration. He mentioned it.

And people like Lakin Raleigh. I'll be thinking about her tomorrow all day. 22 years old, killed in Georgia, a young nursing student by an elite. I'll be thinking about Jocelyn Nungare, 12 years old in Texas, murdered by two Venezuelan illegals. President Trump closed the border. Kamala Harris opened it by choice. It wasn't accidental.

She said it would be humane. That's what she and her boss believed. Tell it to Lake and Riley's family. There was nothing humane about it. He closed it. They opened it. It was an intentional choice. And there's no reason not to believe they won't do it again.

Yep. she is absolutely right. Poor Lake and Riley. My gosh, when you think about the lives that have been lost by the intentional, the deliberate policy decisions, especially by Democrats, it's just disgusting. And another part of the speech, she pointed this out about how Kamala calls open borders kindness. And you'll remember in the debate between Walls and Vance, walls justified their open border policy. by saying, you know, Jesus calls for us to care for the least of these. First of all, that's not what the least of these means. He's talking about persecuted Christians. If you're scandalized by that statement, then you can read most theologians throughout history and certainly the church fathers in that context. That is who Jesus is talking about. But even if you were talking about the world poor, I promise you, he is not talking about the illegal aliens raping and murdering young women. That's not who he's referring to. But that is like a perfect example of toxic empathy.

And that's, of course, why I wrote the book. And that's why I was so passionate as I was writing the immigration chapter because we see this toxic empathy manifest itself so much. This idea that welcoming everyone who wants to be here is kindness when really it is cruelty to the citizens we are responsible to. The citizens that our government is responsible to because for every sad story that you hear of the woman who is fleeing Colombian gang violence to live and work here with her family, There are five other stories of military-aged men infiltrating the United States and raping children. That's just the truth of it. And even if that were just one bad apple, that would be enough to close down our borders. And even if there were no bad apples, that would be enough to close down our borders because that is the right and responsibility that we have as a country.

Remember yesterday the stories that we had to tell of these young men who have infiltrated the United States illegally, one of which actually raped a four. year olds. Oh my gosh. It is a moral obligation, a righteous obligation for a government to close our borders and to deport all illegal aliens. God is a God of order, not a God of chaos. And one of you actually messaged to me last night. And I love these messages so much. It gives fuel to my fire and helps encourage me to do what I do, whether it's something that's theological or political. But when I get a message from one of you saying, you know, I listened to Relatable and this changed my mind, whether it's something that I said or whether it's something that one of my guests said, who are far more brilliant than I am. And when you guys tell me that I once thought this and

now I thought this, it just encourages me so much. And one of you messaged me and you said, you know, I was basically a liberal on border policy. You didn't really think about it beyond just the idea that, well, we should care for these people who want to be here. And then once you read toxic empathy and you saw the facts of it and the truth that exists on both sides of this moral equation, and you realize that God is a God of order, not chaos, that that completely changed your mind on the immigration issue. And I just praise God for that. Megan Kelly also gave this reason for why she's voting for Trump.

Here's sought, too. He got mocked by the left for saying he would be a protector of women. He will be a protector of women, and it's why I'm voting for him. He'll close the border. He will keep the boys out of girls' sports and where they don't belong. And you know what else? One more thing. He will look out for our boys, too.

Our forgotten boys and our forgotten men. Guys like you. Guys like these guys. who've got the calluses on their hands who work for a living with the beards and the tats who maybe have a beer after work and don't want to be judged

by people like Oprah and Beyonce who will never have to face the consequences of her disastrous economic policies these guys are. Yep, she's absolutely right. Go, Megan Kelly. I think that's such like a cool arc from where they were eight years ago.

And gosh, the political realignment that has happened, not just over the past eight years, but really over the past four years, is really something. Like, it's really something to see people like Joe Rogan, Megan Kelly, Elon Musk, Russell Brand, all of these people who are considered center, even center left over the past few years come out in favor of Donald Trump. Joe Rogan released his latest Elon Musk interview last night. and Joe Rogan also endorsed Donald Trump himself. He said, the great and powerful Elon Musk, he's posting the link to the, or he's posting, I guess, the video itself on X, the interview between him and Elon. He said, the great and powerful Elon Musk, if it wasn't for him, we'd be effed. Would never say that on this show. He makes what I think is the most compelling case for Trump.

You'll hear. And I agree with him every step of the way. For the record, yes, that's an endorsement of Trump. enjoy the podcast. Thank you, sir. You know, some people are saying, oh, he should have done this a long time ago. Look, I think that we just have to be happy that it happened. He has huge, huge influence over men. And men right now do seem to be less engaged and less mobilized in this election than women do. And if we want a Republican to win, as the numbers bear out, we really need the men to be voting. And a lot of people,

most people vote on voting day. And so this could still have a great effect. I hope that people listened to it last night and watched it. It was really, really good. I'll just play you a clip from this incredible interview, SOT 19. If the dams won the selection, they will legalize enough illegals to turn the swing states and everywhere will be like California. There will be no escape.

That is so insane. This is the final. this is it. This is the last chance. Has anybody tried to push back? Go out and vote. Vote like your life depends on it. Vote like your future depends on it.

Because it does. This is the last chance, man. Okay, so I think that that's pretty incredible that we actually have like a billionaire in our corner. We have a few billionaires in our corner, actually. There have been some tech giants and even some media moguls that have come out in favor of Donald Trump, and I'm very thankful for that.

That's just not something that we are used to on the right. It seems like the scales are a little more even than they have been in the past. I mean, as we've talked about many times, these progressives who claim that they're so scared of the specter of Christian nationalism and Christo-fascism, I'm like, you've got every major national and international institution and major corporation and most of the world. tech companies all in your corner agreeing with everything that you believe about immigration and

gender and sexuality and the police and all of that stuff. And you guys are scared of a few Christians who say, oh, I think murdering babies is bad. Really? Come on. But I do appreciate, so appreciate Elon Musk's outspokenness, his boldness, his taking over X. I mean, really. It is, I didn't know. what it would look like, but I think it has been a game changer. A game changer for the trajectory of Western civilization. I really do. I'm not exaggerating that at all. The way that he has protected free speech on his platform and the way that he has pointed out the danger of unfettered illegal immigration, the way that he has highlighted the corruption in our medical industry, especially when it comes to the attempted transition of children and the sexualization

of children, the way that he has spoken against the anti-natalist movement and the decline in the birth rate. I'm just very grateful for that. And it's an unexpected, it's an unexpected gift. And do I align with him on everything? No, absolutely not. I don't think he's a born-again Christian, although he has talked about being a cultural Christian. He has several different children from several different women and has employed surrogates for that. And so obviously there are some things that we really don't agree with. But I see what moment we're in and what's needed. And I'm just very grateful for that.

And for Joe Rogan, and for Megan Galeigh, and for Tulsi Gabbard, and for RFK, who have all helped forge this realignment. Now, I am still a Christian first and foremost. so I am going to represent that segment and represent our views to the best of our ability to ensure that we still have a voice and that we don't shift to the left because we've absorbed some of the center and the center left. That'll be my role in all of it. But I'm grateful. I'm grateful that people have really opened their eyes. I've got more thoughts on that in a second.

But let me pause and tell you about our next sponsor. It is pre-born. Pre-born is a network of clinics across the country that has been working so hard to save as many lives as possible and they do. They offer free resources to moms and need. And one of the first things they offer after a pregnancy test is confirmation of that pregnancy via ultrasound. That's a free sonogram where the pregnant woman gets to see her baby on the screen. Many times hear that beating heart. And after that, she is so much more likely to choose life. They're there for these moms. Yes, it's about being pro life. Yes, it's about being pro birth. But it's about more than that. It is about

meeting these women where they are making sure they know they're not alone they are cared for they hear about their true life affirming option so if you want to be a part of that work donate to preborn you can go to preborn.com slash alley you can donate $28 then you'll cover the cost of an ultrasound which is pretty amazing but anything you donate will help so just go to preborn.com slash alley okay before i get into the rest of my thoughts about the political realignment i want to bring it to brie and just see, Bree, how are you feeling about the election? I hate to be a Debbie Downer. Oh, gosh, Bree. I know. I'm starting with that. I'm not super optimistic. I would love to be. I'm just not.

I'm sorry. I'm not very optimistic. Why? Is it general vibe or what? I'm just so disappointed from the last time. I feel like that's just carried over. And to be honest, I just don't think one side is going to do this in good faith. So I just don't know, even if, you know, even if Donald Trump does actually win, I don't know. Yeah. We're definitely up against people who believe that the ends justify the means and that Donald Trump is Hitler. And so they believe that whatever it takes to keep Hitler out of power is completely justified and is actually democracy. Yeah. And, of course, you know, the opposite is true.

But you just wrote a really great article about just why you as a Christian. Christian are voting for Donald Trump. I'm guessing you already have voted, right? Okay, good. Yeah, I voted. Bree, I would have to make you leave. I'm going to be here all day. I know.

I would have to make you leave right now. So can you tell me a little bit about that? Like, what is your thinking as you support Donald Trump or as you voted for him? Yeah. Well, in 2016, when he was running against Hillary, I was so afraid to even, like, tell anyone that I was supporting Trump. I think a lot of people felt that way. And I was skeptical too of him at the time. But anything that I would post publicly would be very like, aren't we all exhausted by this, that kind of thing. And I just realized that it didn't really mean anything.

I wasn't really saying anything. Of course everyone felt that way. And I really, I think kind of underestimated how important that election was. So now I've- But you did, I mean, if you don't mind saying you did vote for Trump then? I did. You did. Yeah. So now I've just, I've come to the point where I feel pretty confident in saying, and we've said this on the show before too, but you just can't really vote blue. Like if you look at what the Bible says about a lot of the issues that matter the most, they just don't align with. I don't think you can justify voting blue. And so for me, as a Christian, um, that's just kind of my reasoning. I don't think there's any justification for it. I think when you look at abortion, immigration, gender, all of those things, I just, I don't know.

A lot of people have gotten mad at me already. I shared it on my stories today. Who? Like, it has to be like your friends, right? Yeah. Yeah. Or people you've known over the years. Who have said, this really breaks my heart just to see the title of the article. What's the title again? I don't have it right in front of me. I can't remember off the top of my head, but I think it's like for Christians, Donald Trump is the only choice. Yeah. So, Spirons. I see. Yeah. And I saw you drop the, or one of the subheaders was fake empathy.

Yes. And that's when the site kicked me off because I wasn't signed in. And so I didn't get to read that whole. I linked your book. Oh, thanks. Thanks. But yeah. Yeah, I was basically, I just kind of go through some of those main topics and what Kamala,

what her policies are on them and why, you know, that across the board doesn't work for Christians. Are you responding to the people who are telling you? oh, this breaks my heart? Some of them, yeah. What are you saying if you don't mind saying? Well, one of them recently was like, this really hurts my heart knowing you as a fellow Christian because you should understand that some Christians reason out their politics differently and come to different conclusions.

And this really hurts the unity of the church. She was upset that I had posted like that article on my story. She said it was clickbait. and I said, well, I want people to click on it. Yeah. So I'm sorry if you think the title is clickbaity, but I want people to read it. It's not clickbait unless it doesn't actually describe what's in the article. And that's exactly what the article was arguing.

Yes. Maybe that's what she didn't like. But yeah, I just responded and I said, I don't think it goes against or it harms the unity of the church. I really don't. I think we should be talking about things like this. And if you don't like my opinion on it, that's fine. But the reality is, you know, the unity of the church would be would benefit from people exactly hearing hard truths so yeah and

that's just that logic doesn't work because that's so you're not allowed to share an opinion at all without it causing disunity and it seems that I only hear that from people on the left when it's a conservative opinion if a progressive were to say you know I'm voting for the least of these I'm voting for the most vulnerable for the migrant, for the foreigner, and all that. And I don't see how anyone could vote for the felon. They would say, yes. And amen, that's not divisive. It was like in 2020, when we were hearing that all white people are racist and there's white fragility and all of that, and someone like me would be like, well, no, I don't think that's biblical. And that's just not factually accurate. I was being accused of being divisive. Okay, but you're the one who's saying that

I am a part of systemic racism based on just like the melanin count that I have. How is that not divisive? It's always the conservative. It's always like the counter opinion to like the progressive zeitgeist that is divisive. Because it's mean and it's unchristian. I got this a lot when I worked in ministry as well. There were some people who I think are well meaning. But they just are like if you say anything like that, they're like, well, that's not really

loving. And so we as Christian shouldn't talk like that. that that's not true. Yeah. That's not true. And so I would just caution anyone who is like speaking out today about who they're voting for. If you get messages like that that are like, this really hurts my heart that you are, you know,

talking about politics like this, don't give into that. Don't feel guilty about it because you don't need to. Yeah. You know, unless you're being rude. Yeah. But, you know. I just wonder like some sometimes I think that people who say, this is even beyond politics, but basically that you should never say something true ever.

If it is not progressive, then you are not really being loving. Or you should have the perfect tone at all times in order to be considered loving. Like, have you never read Jesus? Like, Jesus, again, this is not even, I'm not even talking about right versus left, but how he speaks is so pointed and sometimes so harsh and even sarcastic that I'm like, Jesus was, he obviously didn't confuse niceness with love. He understood that there was a time to be extremely pointed, even to be harsh, to say things in a way that may have been difficult to hear, but it was necessary for him to say it in that way at the time. And he's God and God is love. So nothing

Jesus ever did could have been outside of the realm of love. Same with God in general throughout scripture. And so like if God says it that, you know, we were created male and female and God is love, then nothing that if we agree with that, then we are also being loving. And people always think they can out nice God. That's the problem. You think you're nicer than God. That's the thing. And really, maybe you're just being really mushy and nuanced to the point of not really having like a conviction. I think a lot of Christians think that they're being nuanced when really they just don't have conviction. Agreed. And that is a big problem.

Well, I'm feeling okay about the election. I am trusting that there are conservative groups out there like the Heritage Foundation who are committed to election integrity. And there are millions of millions of dollars being poured into election integrity. Elon Musk is helping with that. and I am I'm just like okay that's beyond my realm and I'm just hoping that that holds yeah so that's the optimistic view that is the optimistic view I'm trying to get there I'm trying to I'm trying to I know you know I never I did not think that Trump was going to win in 2020 really no I didn't think it was going to win in 2016 either to be fair oh yeah I didn't either

yeah this is the only this is the only election where I felt like it is a good possibility Hmm, okay. Yeah, if that makes you feel any better. In 2016, I wasn't, I mean, I had just started doing this. And so I was like making videos on Facebook. I actually, my first video that went viral was a video was probably eight years ago really close to right now that I said, I'm a Christian, I'm a woman, I'm voting for Donald Trump and here's why. And of course, it was like, oh my gosh, how could anyone say that out loud at the time? And but I just, it was just the propaganda against him was sort of. so strong. It still is, but people just didn't have as much of a sense of like the media's manipulation at the time. So I was shocked. I didn't like him in the primary. I'm not even going to say who I liked the primary is embarrassing. But I didn't like him in the primary. But then I remember, so I went to sleep on election night in 2016 because it was going on forever. And my husband came in the room at like 3 a.m. and said, babe, Trump won. And I was like, what? I could not believe it. Do you remember where you were? I was actually in France. I was in France. So I went to sleep just at normal time.

And when I woke up, it had come in. But I went to sleep thinking, I was sure. I was like Hillary Clinton is going to win. And I woke up and my friend and I, who both were conservative, looked at each other, just opened our doors and we're like, I cannot believe. I cannot believe. leave it. So yeah, good memory. Oh, my goodness. And then in 2020, I mean, obviously, I voted for Trump. So I voted for Trump three times now. I just, there were so much. And I obviously only really can like see my camp of evangelicals, but there were conservative evangelicals who in the name of fighting racism couldn't bring themselves to vote for Trump. And I think that it's interesting that 2020 is still playing a huge role in our elections, but in the opposite way that it did in 2020.

So in 2024, the events of 2020 are helping Donald Trump. In 2020, the events of 2020 hurt Donald Trump. And I'm talking about the BLM, George Floyd riots, that whole critical race movement where a lot of Christians were duped by BLM and a lot of the bad actors who were calling all white people racist. I mean, they have been, they've completely shown themselves for what they are, which is just like race idolizers, white people haters who do not believe in God's definitions of goodness and justice at all and are just progressives. They're just progressives. And so I think a lot of evangelicals have woken up to that. And so they're like, yeah, that's a crazy ideology. I don't vote in alignment with that anymore. And then I think the Maha movement, the Make America Healthy Again movement, has really since 2020 just taken off and joined forces with Trump, which is interesting because Trump was in charge of Operation Warp Speed. Yes, I know. That's such a political realignment.

I just saw a post, I'll try to find it and put it up, but of someone who said in 2016 I was, you know, crying in the streets when Hillary lost. in 2020. I was celebrating in the streets and I just voted for Trump. And I think it was Liz Wheeler who asked, I would love to hear what changed her mind. And essentially she was like it was COVID. Yeah. I happened during COVID and what all of the lockdowns and the regulations and things like that. That's what caught people. And yeah, still is. That is, that's really amazing. I hear from a lot of people. I have a ton of DMs. I was just pulling them up to see if I could read any of them. But I got a ton of them and a lot of responses to my story last night, so I don't know what I'll be able to read. But a lot of people who said that they were, that they voted for Hillary or didn't vote in 2016, then voted for Biden last time and then voted for Trump.

I remember these were the most devastating messages I got last time. I got a few messages in 2020 before election day from people saying, I already voted for Biden. But I started listening to you and I really regret that now. And I'm like, oh no. But hopefully this go round, this go round. So let me see. I ask some people if Relatable has helped change their mind. A lot of people said IVF abortion and things like that. I'm really grateful to hear that.

One person said I decided to vote for Trump and changed my view on abortion because of Relatable. That's really sweet. someone said voted for Biden embarrassed to say in 2020 but you turned me a Republican and so there's probably thousands of responses that I've gotten on here so I can't I can't read all of them but I'm very grateful for those of you who have reached out to me and told me that relatable was instrumental in that and obviously anything that is in alignment with scripture I'm talking beyond politics where you say that relatable change your mind. I mean, all glory goes to God for that, and that's only by the grace of God, and he gets to

use all of us in different ways. But I'm also grateful when I change someone's mind on politics. And relatable, by the grace of God, thank the Lord, has a really significant influence among pastors and among churchgoers. And I just pray that God continues to use it for his glory and to affect people in the way that he chooses. And so we'll see. We'll see what happens with all this. I'm actually, I'm feeling really good.

I was really nervous over the weekend. I'm feeling really good right now. We'll see how I feel. I do just want to say that I will be providing election commentary tonight for a Blaze TV.

Now, the reason that Bree is really nervous about this election is because she is still just shaking from the power of Cardi B's endorsement of Kamler. That's true. She's like, okay, she was feeling really good about it.

But then she saw this clip and she was like, Trump cannot overcome this. Here's thought seven. One second, guys. One second. Okay. So I don't take lightly the call. Sorry, guys.

I'm a little nervous. I'm a little nervous. Okay, so the teleprompters went out. And she has so much genuine love for Kamala Harris that she, she couldn't even say one word that she had thought of. She's literally a performer. Yeah.

You know, I've realized, though, that whether it's an actor, whether it's a singer, I'm trying to be nice because it's a different ballgame to get up there and speak. Not everyone who is a performer is a speaker, but to not be able to say literally one word because you don't have written remarks in front of you. Yeah. I someone tried to convince me that actually Cardi B is a historian that she isn't like an FDR historian. Yeah. What was the reasoning?

I don't know. I saw it on X. I didn't look into it at all. I just have a really hard time believing that. I mean, I think that she kind of seems like a sweet person and she, I'm, you know, talented and all of that stuff. I'm not saying that she is, I'm not trying to disrespect her in every way.

I just think that if you were going to choose someone to speak at your rally, that you should choose someone who can talk. Yes. Actually, I think she previously had kind of verged into supporting Trump policies, at least economic policies before. So I was actually kind of surprised to see her do this. Well, she criticized Bernie Sanders, I think, at one point. Yeah. Maybe that's what it was. Yeah. And she criticized the government in New York. She was like, we pay all this tax money. and we still have like rats and trash everywhere and people can't afford groceries. And I'm like, think!

Think! Maybe those are her real thoughts and this is her being blackmailed. Well, she definitely, it might even, I don't even know if it's blackmail. I think what, Beyonce got paid $10 million to give her speech. And so, I mean, maybe she probably wasn't given

Beyonce money, but maybe $5 million. Yeah. And if you don't really care that much, I mean, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And then also we've got LeBron James. And LeBron James is surprise, surprise, endorsing Kamala Harris.

Here's Sight. No, I'm not a racist. They're taking black jobs now. The whole country's going to be like, it'll be like Detroit. A lot of it's about the genes, isn't it, don't you believe? They're poisoning the blood of our country. Is that supposed to? convince people. Is black jobs racist? I feel like the left is always talking about black this,

black that, black jobs, black excellence. But when Trump says that, then it's like the most racist thing ever. Yeah. Well, it doesn't help that they spliced that together with the word like Nazi supporter. Hitler. Come on. Like cool editing guys. Yeah. I remember when LeBron James a few years. Yeah. I remember when LeBron James a few years ago said that because he is black, people are out there literally hunting them down. I promise you, no one is going to mess with you, LeBron James. Yeah. You are the least vulnerable person in this country. Yep.

Nope. Nope. And then, of course, she's got other celebrity endorsements. She's got Oprah. She's got Rihanna. She's got John Oliver. She's got the Avengers cast. Okay, Scarlett Johansson, Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans. Really, Chris Evans? Mark Ruffalo, a bunch of other people saying vote for Kamala Harris. Haley Williams. Am I confused about who Haley Williams is? I must be confused. I thought that Haley Williams was like some conservative. I don't know. Okay, let's play this clip because I guess I don't know who she is. Not 12.

Okay, I'm sorry. I completely forgot who Haley Williams was that shows how plugged in I am to pop. culture. I thought she was like a country singer. I'm thinking it is someone else. But no, this is the paramour singer. We've actually played that before. Oh, no, I'm so scared of a dictatorship. Does it comforts you guys out there if I let you know that if Donald Trump wins we're not going to live in a dictatorship? Like, does that make you feel better? Because I promise that the guy who used to judge bikini contest is not, is not a dictator that is going to take away your birth control. I promise. Can I, can I promise you that? Will that make you feel better. You know, this guy was president. Do you remember that? Like four years ago, he was president.

Did you feel like we were entering into a dictatorship? Were any of your rights taken away when Donald Trump was president? Yes, I know that some of you lived in a state that enacted a pro-life law. And so it made it more difficult to kill babies. But killing a child just because the child resides in your body is not actually a right. It's not in the Constitution. It's not a right of God. It is something that is completely made up. And by the way, it's immoral. And you can move to a blue state if you want to. I think that's horrible. I think it's a fundamental human right, but you still can't move to a blue state where abortion is available through all nine months. There's no dictatorship going on here. You will have more freedom under Donald Trump. Monica Lewinsky, she her. That's in her

her Twitter title in case you didn't know the Monica Lewinsky was a woman. She is voting for Harris Walls. Also surprise, surprise. Lots of jokes that I could make, but I will move on. Let's see. Where should we go? Where should we go? Oh, I want to play this funny video of these Trump supporters

dressing up like Kamala Harris supporters and going to different houses where there's a Kamala sign out front and asking them if they want to house the migrants. Here's SOT 6. I dressed up like I work for Kamala's campaign. And now I'm going to deliver immigrants to her supporters. Are you?

We are voting for you. We do have a surprise if that's okay. It's just real fast. We're looking for a place for them to stay. They just came across. They'll sleep on floors. I mean, they're not picky, you know. We have like a two-year-old. So Hector's good with kids.

Sorry, we just can't. Could they just, like, sleep on your lawn? They need a place to stay. They just came across. My teenagers love with me. Oh, that's fine. Hector, he was dating a teenager, like a little bit ago, so. Um, okay.

They just came across. They don't have papers. You're in support of, like, the whole border situation, and we're just trying to get them a floor to sleep on. We're a house of COVID. They said they could survive it. She really didn't know how to say her name. We work with her name, so we know how to say her name.

Earlier you said Kamala. The way she pronounces her name is Kamala. You don't work with her reason. See that car? We have three dudes who just came across the border. We're trying to find them a home. Just say I'm voting for Donald Trump without saying it, okay? That's a wrong attitude, mister.

I said my vote is private. So you're voting Kamala. My favorite line, the Kamala supporter, I have a two-year-old, the guy, Hector's good with kids. Oh, one of the women. I have teenagers who live with me. Oh, Hector was just dating a teenager. It's totally fine. Oh, my goodness.

No, I would like to see more of this. I think that this is what you should do. If you are going to vote for the policies that don't affect you in your rich neighborhoods, by the way, illegal aliens crossing the border, your family hasn't been affected by that yet. I think your family should be affected by it. And if you don't see the purpose of having borders, then you must not see the purpose in having walls or doors or locked either. But you do. You understand the importance of having a home, of having a home, of having to. offense of having the gate in your gated community, having your own walls and your own doors and

your own locks, not because you hate your neighbors, but because you love your family inside. Yet when it comes to the country, all of a sudden, that's a bigoted position. Oh, you've been brainwashed. You've been brainwashed. Okay, should we talk about, should we talk about peanut the squirrel? Yeah. You think so? Yeah.

Okay, let's end on talking about peanut the squirrel. this is about the stuff that really matters. I guess I'll go ahead and give our last sponsor for the day, and then we can get into little peanut R-I-P. Okay, the last sponsor of the day is crowd health.

Peanut is a squirrel that lived with a couple in New York and he was taken by authorities and euthanized. And people are freaking out about this because it's a story of government overreach. Obviously, New York City has a lot to deal with. They have a lot of crime, a lot of drug problems, a lot of economic issues. They've got a problem of illegal aliens taking the space of citizens and housing. And yet this is a lot of.

what they decided to focus their resources on. So Mark Longo and his wife, they have accumulated a large audience on TikTok because of their pet squirrel and the videos that they make with this squirrel named Peanut. Now, what I did not know until yesterday, and Bree found this out in a very disturbing way, that these people are not just famous for their pet squirrel. They are famous for their adult content online. We did not know that. I did not verify that, but that is what I am being told, which is unfortunate. So we're going to leave out that part of this. We're going to leave out that part of the story. So on October 30th, authorities came to Pine City, New York, to get this squirrel. And because this squirrel was not owned lawfully, they didn't

have the right papers. I don't know. And so they, uh, they decided that they were going to capture this squirrel, take them away, take this squirrel away. And, uh, a raccoon, is that right? The raccoon that this, read the raccoon. Yeah, that this couple had in their, uh, in their apartment. Apparently, Peanut bit one of the authorities that came to get him and then they had to euthanize him to test the brain for rabies just to make sure that this person, this officer, did not get rabies. If you can even get rabies from a squirrel, but people are very upset about this, not just because of the government overreach, but because it seems like animal cruelty and people had fallen in love with peanut the squirrel.

Here's up four. Tell my mind I ain't forget. Oh, Lord. Both of drunk at 10 a.m. We're going to do these fucking again. Tell your girl to bring a friend. Oh, Lord. What?

Okay, I'm not going to lie. It's a little disturbing. I'm not going to lie. It's a little disturbing. I don't know. I don't like rodents inside. And so like I don't like this would never be content that I would be like, oh, that's cute or that's cool or whatever. But I do think it's crazy that New York decided to. to spend its resources, finding and then killing this squirrel confiscated by the New York Department of Environmental Conservation. And then this guy, Mark, he gave an interview about this, obviously very distraught that they took his squirrel. Here's SOT three. 10 to 12 DEC officers raided my house as if I was a drug dealer. I was sat outside my house for five hours.

I had to get a police escort to my bathroom. I wasn't even allowed to feed my rescue horses breakfast or lunch. I was sitting, sat there like a criminal after they interrogated my wife to check out her immigration status. Four departments and a judge signed off on a search warrant for a squirrel and a raccoon. And then they took them and killed them. I mean, that is kind of crazy. Yeah.

Rescue horses. Yeah, I don't know what that's about. an apartment in New York City? Okay, that part is a little confusing. But I do think it's crazy. His wife is apparently an immigrant from Germany, I think, and they were asking her about her immigration status. Four different departments signed off on a search warrant because of a squirrel. Like, y'all don't have better things to do. Like, you can barely even safely walk in Central Park after dusk these days. And like, this is your concern? Yeah. And it took them hours. They were there all day. That is crazy.

That is crazy. Elon Musk made this like a MAGA rallying cry. He posted on X. President Real Donald Trump will save the squirrels. RIP peanut. And then he posted all about this. So J.D. Vance said, let's see, this was on Sunday. He told a crowd in North Carolina that Donald Trump is fired up about peanut the squirrel.

Here's top five. So I know Don's fired up about peanut the squirrel. We were on the way down here from Cincinnati. He was like, you know, is it really the case that the Democrats murdered the Elon Musk of squirrels? And I said, yeah, it sounds like, have you seen the videos of this squirrel? He's like, he's. I don't know if that landed. I don't know.

Sometimes I think that we think those of us who are online think that everyone knows what's going on online. I guarantee you if I texted my friends right now and asked them about peanut the squirrel, they wouldn't know. You probably would know. You're probably right about that, yeah. Yeah. So, but this really did like become a whole thing online. So this person, I don't know who some of these people are. PDB. It's got a blue check mark. He said, a squirrel cannot live in your home legally, but illegal immigrants can stay in your city indefinitely with financial support. Hmm. And one is actually harming people and the other one isn't.

Glenn Beck said this whole peanut the squirrel story is both a sign that we're living in clown world and a microcosm of everything this election is about. Are we a nation that still believes in privacy within our homes? Or are we okay with the government being so powerful that it can raid our house and steal and kill our pets? I mean, I understand like if you owned a lion or something, like it's going to harm you. It's going to harm the people around you. It's probably really harmful for the lion to be cooped up in an NYC apartment. But like a rodent, who cares?

And it's also just the concentrating on one thing at the expense of all the. the much more important things that really bothers me. But it's not because it's not just a story of government overreach and government largesse. It's the story of bad priorities because we have bad people. We have it's a story of the government not wanting to solve actual problems, but just torment people's lives in a way that doesn't actually help anyone. But then I also think about the fact that people were more outraged about this, more

outraged about this story, not just the government overreach part, but the fact that a squirrel was euthanized, and they are about the fact that babies are euthanized thousands of times a day in the womb. Like, I wish that we were more outraged about a single story of the government allowing and even subsidizing the murder of children inside the womb. I mean, that is a whole other part of this is that I do think for a lot of people, their hearts break more when it. comes to animal cruelty than when it comes to cruelty for children and may God just have mercy on us and revive our heart so that we have rightly ordered affections and outrage. But RIP, peanut the squirrel. It's a sad, sad story. I don't know if I would recommend Googling this person's

name because I cannot guarantee what's going to come up. All right, anything else, Bree, that we should leave people with. We will be back here tomorrow after our long-neous. night tonight. We'll be back here on Thursday as well. Is there anything else? No, just election coverage tonight. Woo. Hop on. We'll see what happened. It's going to be a late night. Let's pray that it's over tonight or tomorrow. Please, Lord. Please, Lord. That's my prayer. And I am praying. I hope that all of you are praying. I'm praying for peace. I'm praying for protection. I'm praying for God's mercy on our nation. I'm praying that Donald Trump wins. But I do know that Jesus wins in the end. And I have so much peace and hope because of that.

All right. Thank you guys for hanging in this whole election season. We are almost there. We'll be back here tomorrow.
