President Trump is set to land in Egypt at any second. We'll cover it all live. He will be meeting leaders in Egypt, Muslim leaders, to talk about the peace summit after a speech in Israel's Knesset. This would be Israel's House of Governance. It is a wonderful day because we do not want war. We want peace. We do not want hostages, terror, or horrors to become for any people.

people. We want the end, of course, to the circumstances that could spark and ignite and create an environment where American troops have to be deployed once more. The Godforsaken sandbox. These are the kind of regional conflicts that have marred my entire young life. Every single decade every single year, there is a new American Forever War, seemingly. That is the rule of my upbringing, whether it's Desert Storm, whether it's Afghanistan, whether it's Iraq, and we're sick of it as a people. And so bringing peace to these conflicts is a wonderful and glorious thing. And also there have been 20 hostages. Now Hamas holds zero hostages. for the first time in years.

It was a very, very good thing, ladies and gentlemen. Steve Hilton and Pastor Doug Wilson will be joining the program today. And we're going to have a very, very interesting one, again, as President Trump is about to land in Egypt. My name is Benny Johnson, and this is The Benny Show. As you saw in our cold open, the meme of President Trump's golden Boeing 747, all this. golden skulls. Ladies and gentlemen, I think there's going to be quite a bit of gold, perhaps, President Trump, in Egypt today. I'm not exactly sure what the Egyptian palaces that Donald Trump will be in today, what they will look like, but I can tell you what was kept in the pyramids,

obviously gold, physical gold, precious metals, because, well, they've held their value throughout all time. And, well, if you were invested in gold, it didn't matter that the crypto markets crashed on Friday, ladies and gentlemen, people that were holding precious metals, did it just grand, all right? You can go ahead and look at the charts. Just believe me when I say that this is an asset class that you should be investing in. I invest in it.

All right. So President Trump has declared an end of terror and death to raucous applause. Now, ALX, speaking of terror and death, I guess like this is the first time live since we had our own little press conference about the terror against my family. So ALX, we have to like talk about this, right? We can't just like, we kind of left people on a cliffhanger on Friday. Then I went to go see Pam Bondi and we did a press conference about an individual. Why don't you grab the filing

ALX? The individual who's threatening my family and well, now in prison. George Isabel is his name. He sent a letter to my home saying that I was going to die just like Charlie Kirk in an open field with blood gushing from my head and neck. I just want to do a massive shout out to the administration for taking these kind of threats seriously. We are a show of peace. We are going to celebrate Donald Trump today for bringing peace. I do not want pain or suffering for anyone in this country. I want to resolve our differences peacefully. I want to be able to debate.

I don't want any harm to befall anyone I prayed this past Sunday for Joe Biden who's undergoing some pretty pretty rough chemotherapy right now for his terminal cancer it's the difference between us and the animals so ladies and gentlemen this is these are the animals this is the federal filing that was brought on behalf of my family when an individual who does not seem like a good ombre, let's just say, George Russell, Isabel Jr. Has been charged with threatening communications under 18 U.S. Code 876C.

This could potentially land him 10 years in prison. And the reason why I wanted to sort of be out front and front facing on all this is that it shouldn't happen to anyone. It's hard enough to raise your kids. Man, it's hard enough to be a parent and have four little kids. Like, that is tough, man. It's the toughest thing you'll ever do.

It's the most rewarding thing you'll ever do, but that's just the way it works, right? You can't say, you can't have all reward and no, you know, no struggle through it, right? And so, dude, you shouldn't be having to raise your kids under terroristic threatening. There's a lot of families that this applies to. I don't care if you're just like somebody who works at the gas station down the road and somebody wants to send you a mean letter or if you are president trump and his family uh these kind of things obviously need to be taken seriously and you have to make examples of people so uh here's us and pan bondy uh last friday we obviously cut the show headed it right over to the district attorney's

office here in tampa and we did a press conference and we were able to you know sort of describe how I want this cycle of violence to end. And I don't really care. Everyone attacked me for talking about how this is a cycle of violence, whether it's put bullets through, like, I'm just, I'm tired of watching my president get shot by a left-wing extremist,

by watching my friends get shot by left-wing extremist Charlie Kirk, by watching children get killed, praying in churches in Minneapolis, watching federal law enforcement facilities, the ICE facility in Dallas get shot up. Like, I'm tired of that. And they're all left-wing radicals, and the bullets are only coming from one side.

And so, you know, at some point, you have to have the balls to just straight up say it. And that's what I do. And that's what I did. And, you know, everyone came for me. I don't, don't care. You know, this problem's on your side. And if you don't think that it's a, you know, if you want to call it extremists and you want to write it off, well, the extremists have gone mainstream and the Democrat Party. you might call it extreme but i call it mainstream because the democrat party is trying to elect

somebody in virginia right now that did exactly what this dude is convicted of doing convicted charged with doing arrested charged and being held in federal prison for doing to my family j j jones is his name and he wrote republicans saying that he wants to kill him please put up the photo fine saying he wants to kill him and he wants to kill their children and so

like Democrats can't run away from this issue these are my kids like these are my precious three of my four precious children this was me right after the me right after the press conference

and I come home and this is what I come home to every single day and I just don't get these monsters like why do they why did they do this you know why did they orphan Charlie's children

widow his wife we're going to be at Charlie Kirk's we're going to be doing the show from D.C. tomorrow We'll be at Charlie Kirk's Memorial Service at the White House and his Medal of Freedom He's Charlie Kirk, we'll be getting posthumously the Medal of Freedom from President Trump tomorrow will be there. We very much look forward to that and bringing you plenty of content. Also a big announcement that the show tomorrow, we will have Eric Trump on the program tomorrow.

We're going to be talking about all this. Again, this is my wife, Pam Bondi. This is us right after the announcement that they've charged this individual. Like, where do we draw the line? Democrats, millions of Democrats are set to vote for a dude, here's the text messages that prove it, a dude that is straight up saying that Republican children are little fascists and they all deserve to die. This dude is running for the top law enforcement office in Virginia. We are the party of peace.

And so it was, you know, I just wanted to use it as an opportunity to throw down. and say, no, like, we're not going to, we're not going to allow you to threaten our children anymore. My innocent children are not little fascists. My innocent, beautiful children do not deserve to die. And yes, your ass is going to prison. So, like, don't threaten kids, dude, right? And we want to make examples of people, so that doesn't happen anymore. Anyway, that's what we, that's what we had.

We had a very tight show on Friday. then we left to head on over. Obviously, to do that, and we're thankful for all of your prayers. We've gotten, like, an enormous amount of outreach. I know I'm not the only person that gets death threats. I know that this is a common thing. It shouldn't be a common thing. And the way to make it not a common thing is actually take action on some of them.

So there it is. I do want to put up one final thing that I thought was fascinating, kind of telling on themselves here, NBC News. NBC News wrote wrote an article about this circumstance using you guys if you watch the stream

like if you watch the stream you know that I'm like constantly smiling I'm not a particularly like angry rage filled person I'd rather laugh than cry on the stream I don't cry on the stream you've heard me talk about blackout coffee

for a long time now and there's a reason for that it's not just about the coffee it's about what the company stands for hard work grit The American Dream. A little over six years ago, Blackout Coffee started in a home garage, roasting small batches with one mission to make damn good coffee without compromising on values. Fast forward to today, and they're roasting in-house, packing every bag themselves,

and shipping straight from their 64,000-foot square facility run by a team of over 30 hard-working Americans. This is the best coffee on the market. I drink it every single day, and it powers this show. There are not some corporate coffee giant. There are no middlemen, no cutting corners. It's just premium small batch roasted coffee made right here in America by the people who actually care about quality. So when you drink blackout coffee, you're not just getting the best of the best out there. You're supporting a company that stands for something.

If you believe in hard work, American values, and coffee that actually tastes like coffee, go to blackoutcoffee.com slash Benny and use the code Benny for 20% off your first order. Support the American dream, drink blackout. That's blackout coffee.com slash Benny. Stop settling for less. Start drinking real coffee. I don't like cry ever, except for the birth of my children. But I'd be like, I'd rather laugh at a meme or like howl with laughter as we do meme

reviews with our guests and everything, and we just did that. It was like so funny, sombrero hats and everything. We start the show. I don't know where the hell is photos even from? Like, where do they even find this? Where do they even find this? But anyway, NBC wrote up like, I deserve it. This is like NBC's, everybody sees angle on this is Benny deserves it.

Why? Well, so the left-wing terrorist that threatened to kill my family by NBC News is called A-Man. You can see here in the headline. Federal authorities charge a man with sending threatening letter to conservative influencer who has deep ties to the Trump administration. Look at how they describe me. The signal here, what they're signaling to their left-wing audience is, I deserved it. That's their signaling. A friend with friends with Charlie, close. with Trump. That's what the signal is here. Isn't that amazing how they write this stuff up? Look at the, look at the photo.

Virtually every photo, I'm just grinning. I have this, have this. Do I have COVID there? I don't know. I'm like kind of, I'm a little bit sick right now. But like I had this S eating grin, right? Like I just, this, you know, I'm just a happy guy. It's like, you know, it's like, again, we'd rather laugh and joke on the show.

So I don't know where the hell they even found this. Where is this photo even from? But anyway, they search forever to make it look like I'm the bad guy. Yeah, that's right. That's exactly right. Killer Klein says, I have the most punchable smile in the industry. Yes, fine. I'm happy to own it.

That's right. You know, we're going to go to just a little announcement here. We're going to go do some UFC training. We're going to do UFC training next week with the guy named Bo Nicol. And he's going to actually kick my ass. So that's going to be on the 21st. So I don't know if we'll be able to do that live. And I don't know.

We still have to talk with the team about it. There's too many amazing opportunities are coming up these days. We're going to go and we're going to train with the UFC fighter for, his big fight Madison Square Garden. He's a cool dude named Bo, Bo Nickel. And he's gonna, he's gonna just kick my ass live on the stream. So you'll be able to see my very punchable face get punched live on stream. So you enjoy that?

I'm sure NBC News will be watching. All right. Ladies and gentlemen. So anyway, it's been an interesting couple of days. Goodness gracious. Back to peace. I want peace. Here we go.

Here's a live shot of what looks like a freaking, awesome event. I mean, that's not AI, is it? What the hell is that? What is this? This is the live shot of what President Trump's going to do? I mean, he's going to like shoot a flaming arrow at the top and then light it like the Olympics? I don't know. Got some really cool. What is this guy? It's awesome.

They did this all the way through Qatar, right? In Saudi Arabia, it was fun because like they had like 50 different camera angles. You caught every second.

My friends in American financing can help you take care of your financial troubles. The vast majority of Americans are simply suffering from credit card debt.

These are some of Trump's top advisors, working with historians to make sure that he has a 100% historically accurate speech today. And here's how President Trump's going to suit up. After freeing the Israelis, right? We're just playing the oldies. you know like just play just let it why not just lean into history okay so trump free so trump

We are anti-war. We're anti-war because we are America first because our founders warned us about entanglements in foreign wars.

It's great. What a wonderful day, an amazing day. I mean, I was just in tears watching some of those reunions we've already seen more good things to come. By the way, exactly as you were noting, no homeless zombies wandering around that location. Yeah, what's the deal here, man? Yeah. As you and I saw together the last time we went together in L.A.

Look, a couple of things. First of all, that place is an amazing place. Charmel Shake, I've been there for not as not. meetings as grand as this one, but similar kinds of things. There is something as the president, he's an amazing. What an incredible leader. It is just stunning to see this. The thing that I'm reflecting on, watching all of this unfold, is the fact that only he

and his team with their business-like attitude to this. This really proves the point he made all along from the very first moment he came on the scene, which is an outsider who's not steeped in the use. usual kind of BS of politics and diplomacy and whatever can make progress because it's about getting things done. And there's a particular part of this, a story I just want to tell you, which is, so Jared and Ivanka are good friends of mine. And I saw Jared recent, maybe a couple of years ago, actually now one time in his office in Florida. And I was telling him a story about a business that I started many years ago back in England called Good Business. And one of the

things we got involved in was business alliances that could cross borders that would lead to peace and progress. I wrote a book about it about 25 years ago now, and it came to the attention of Shimon Peres, who was then the foreign minister of Israel. And we got this and I remember the days this shows how old I am. We had a fax rattling in our fax machine in our office in London, and it had a strange kind of crest at the top, and it was from Shimon Peres. He said, I'm very interested in your ideas. I saw a newspaper report. If you're ever in Israel, we'd love to see you.

Of course, what an amazing invitation. Went to Israel, met Mr. Perez, and started a real relationship there. And the reason that he reached out was that he, for decades, had believed that the key to peace in the Middle East was business, business partnerships between Israeli companies and Arab companies and international companies. I remember him telling me a story about a pastor company, Borilla Pastor, and they were growing wheat in the desert and making the past amazing. Anyway, I was telling Jared this story. He literally got up from the table we're at, went to his bookshelf, and got off the table a book by Shimon Peres.

And he said, this was my manual for the Abraham Accords. And it was Perez's book and it was literally marked up all the way through post-it notes and little underlinings all the way through by Jared. said, this is what it was all about, is finding the economic interest, and that's how you get to peace. And so when you see these articles now, you know, there's 25 books that Jared Kushner read that helped it. Well, that was one of them. And it was just an amazing moment. And you see this, and it's the same point. It's people with a business mindset who can get things done where all the kind of useless diplomats have failed for decades. It's incredible to see. Yes. Okay. So give me the sort of 35,000 foot perspective here, Steve, on what's happening this morning. This does seem to be

one of the last festering points that was creating real frictions, obviously, in the Middle East, as President Trump has expanded the Abraham Accords, as he has traveled, obviously, to multiple Arab nations, and had a beautiful and dignified and incredible audience there. and then obviously has been a major friend to Israel. I think you are witnessing the beginnings of a new era here. Is that the way that you, is that your assessment? And why? Because he's offered them something extraordinary,

which none of these previous politicians have done from America or anywhere else. They've been bogged down in the details of, well, this agreement and the specifics. Whereas President Trump, I mean, even the things they everyone laughed at, you know, his vision of a beautiful, realistic. state development in Gaza. But that is a vision of hope and optimism. And those had that before. And so he's laying out into the region this vision of being able to live free from the medieval barbarism that's basically been the norm in so many parts of the Middle East for so long and saying you don't have to live like this. You really don't. And you just see what's happening in Saudi Arabia

and the movement there on some of these things that have just been stuck for so long because you've got a leader there that embraces the modern world and wants to move beyond the kind of medieval approach to everything. That's the role of women in society, whatever it may be. And I think that that energy towards progress and just normality that the president is bringing and putting out there hope. That's actually what he's offering them. It's hope that you don't have to live the way you've been living.

So it was always the Arab nations that needed to come together in order to assist in ending this war. Obviously, that's where Hamas's funding comes from in the first place. You needed to bring both sides together, obviously, right? But President Trump being able to work with the Arab nations is really the key factor that's changed everything. Exactly. We watched how disgraceful Joe Biden, his. Do you remember the fist bump? Oh, my goodness.

It's so humiliating for America. And he was the great foreign policy expert. That's what I always said about Biden, that, you know, he was so, he was such an utter mediocrity on every level, even the thing he was supposed to be the best at, foreign policy, total disaster. Decades of experience in the Senate, honestly. Whereas, and again, I want to give credit to the strategy here with President Trump and his team. Do you remember how mocked he was the very first international visit in the first Trump presidency,

Saudi Arabia, the first place he went, and that amazing welcome in the desert and so on? And all the kind of clever people here mocked, oh, can you believe it? He's sucking up to dictators in the desert and blah, blah, blah. This is the product of that. What you're seeing today is the product of all those years of actually having a really thoughtful strategy about how you make things happen, a totally different. approach. And again, founded on finding the mutual self-interest, that's called deal-making. So it's to me such a glorious validation of everything about President Trump and his approach

in a clearer way than almost anything else we can see. I mean, you can add to that his line piece through strength repeated over and over. You've got to add in there the way he's shown such resolve on, you know, whether that's the, you know, the very kind of surgical and limited Iran strike on the nuclear bunker, you know, all of these things together, the long-term thinking, focus on business, building relationships, bringing the pariah into the fold, all of that was part of this process. And it's just so wonderful to see it come to fruition. Look, it's the beginning.

And so there's a long way to go. But it's, it's, there's more optimism here than we've seen in, I don't know, half a century. Yes, that's right. You bring, you bring everyone together and everybody wins. And if you have an outsider, that actually doesn't have the baggage and the weight of so many, so much corruption and every, every Clinton Foundation donor and Joe Biden and every kickback and every bag of cash and all the septerfuge that they had on his family. I mean, you can see how all these, how the stuff never happens, how nothing ever gets done because they're all such corrupt bastards. Exactly. You can see why they all have so many vested interests.

And they claim that that's Trump, but actually Trump's the opposite, man. He just wants everyone to get rich. Everyone. Yeah. And you can't get rich when you're at war. You know, war is actually what steals all of your wealth. Exactly. And gives us the worst people.

Okay, so speaking of the worst people and individuals who have really nothing to offer except for corruption and irrational rage. And I'm not talking about Hamas. I'm talking about Katie Porter. So Katie Porter, and it looks like we have Trump's comments here, but it's just like a really quick top line here, Steve, that's not been great in California. Really quickly, what's the state of play now? So the thing, so I'm just going to be very clear.

It's, you know, it's not about one terrible interview. It's about 15 years of terrible policies. And actually the attitude you saw from Katie Porter, they're all like that, the California Democrats, That's arrogant, entitled, totally resisting any kind of accountability for their monumental failures, everything a failure in California after 15 years of one party rule. And so I just think, you know, she highlights the way that they all are so contemptuous of any kind of opposition, the way they speak about Trump supporters here, you know, and I think they've got a massive reckoning coming next year.

I'm very confident now, more than ever, that I'll be elected governor next year. We love that. We can't wait to help you out with voter ID as well. Exactly. In California, which we are going to rock and roll. Fantastic. We're going to go to the president here who's speaking live. Steve, thank you so very much.

Great to be with you. All right. God bless you. Okay, here we go. Once in a lifetime deal, nobody's ever shared anything like what's happening today. And countries have all come together, all different countries. Some like each other, some didn't, most didn't, and they've all come together. Every country has come together.

And by the way, Iran did put out a statement, you know, that they support this deal very wholeheartedly. So that was in itself something. But no, I think they want to, that's all I do in my life, I make deals. And they want to make a deal. And President, Trump's... Not that the living, hostages have been returned. Can you please tell us what the next steps are? Well, they're going and looking for bodies.

It's a pretty gruesome task. And they're... They know where numerous are, as you know. I guess five or six are in yet now. But they're looking for bodies. They know the areas and the search parties out, and they're doing it in conjunction with Israel. And they're going to be finding quite a few of them.

President Trump, can you tell us when phase two of the negotiations will begin? Well, it started. I mean, it started as far as we're concerned. Phase two has started. And, you know, the phases are all a little bit mixed in. each other they're going to start cleaning up you look at Gaza and he's a lot of cleanup that's why when I talk to my speech I talk about the debris I use the word debris that's debris times 10 so we're gonna they're gonna really do a job

they have a lot of power in another room you have the wealthiest some of the wealthiest nations in the world all leaders the big leaders are here the emirs and the Kings and everybody and it's a very interesting group I guess we have like 35 countries and that's only because there were the 35s that we invited everybody that we invited came so it's there's a lot of respect and I think you'll see some tremendous progress both in the Middle East this country is doing very well it has good leadership it's about leadership and it's really nice when you say how is your crime situation and they like don't even know what you're talking

about what do you mean crime we don't have crime because if he has crime he puts it out very quickly some people think that's not nice but I think it's great because people don't want to be mugged and smashed and they don't want to be stupid people they have a place that is doing very well we're very proud of it because we knew each other from the beginning the first time I met it was in a hotel and I was going to meet him, and then Hillary Clinton was following me. Remember? Hillary Clinton. And he liked me so much, he never even got to see Hillary.

He saw for about two seconds. But he didn't really want to waste a lot of time. He knew what was going to happen. But that was the first time we met, and we had a very good chemistry together. And it continues till today. So I want to thank you all very much. I appreciate the way you covered this really momentous. I've never seen anything like it.

The level of love, the level of respect for what it is. And it's, you know, it's peace in the Middle East that everybody said it's not possible to do. And it's going to happen. And it is happening as before your very eyes. And that's why it's become so fascinating. Marco, do you have anything to say? Egypt's been a phenomenal participant.

I think both Steve and Jared will tell you the critical role they've played. And they can tell you themselves, they hosted the talks here. And they're going to play a very important role now. in the follow-up, the implementation of this, which is really, it's not simply about restoring Gaza, it is about transforming the region. We have an incredible partner, a long alliance, a very capable partner here, and a tremendous collection of leaders. This is clearly, in my mind, I think in the mind of everyone in this room, probably one of the most important days for world peace in 50 years.

That's not an exaggeration. Only 50? Maybe 100. This is the end of World War II, Mr. Whitkoff and Mr. Kushner, I'm curiously. you've played such an important role in the tactical negotiations here. What will your role be going forward as a lot more has to be brought to the table here? The minute we had inked the deal, Jared and I were already working on the implementation side of the deal. So we're dug in, we'll be here quite a bit.

That's at the direction of the president. That's probably going to be one of the most important phases here. Jared is remarkable to work with. I talk about it all the time. And of course, we both love working for the President. So it's a, feels like a very honorable job. Mr. President, would you like to say something with the agenda? Yes. Let me, in the beginning, I am a lot of the government. I'm, I'm in every share of him.

Mr. President. Mr. President. My name and my name and by the name and by the Muslim, even with all of all of the Salad. I want to thank you, to thank you, thank you for example, for example,

our elections say, I welcome you to Egypt. It's a great pleasure and an honor to have you with us here in the City of Peace, Chaun Shea. We could also to extend On behalf of all Egyptians and peace lovers around the world, salute the appreciation and respect to this unprecedented and momentous accomplishment by your hands.

I was sure that, I'm the one that could be able to do this end upheek of this. I've been very confident that Your Excellity is the only one. who is the key of bringing this about and bringing in to this world. I've even said that very precisely during my communication with your exes, that you are the only one who is able to bring about peace and to achieve peace in this party. in this part. Thank you. Thank you, Mr. President.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. And,

to, you know, for the business in the time, to sell them in Israel, then

it's going to stay back and what we need to do now is to fix the ceasefire, make sure that it,

many things, Mr. Stakes, that we can deliver all of the remaining, the bodies of the disease, to the families, and this is very important, to bring in more humanitarian assistance into the district, and working very closely on following up the rest of steps that should be taken to make their success. Mr. President, you did very great. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

He's a good man. Thank you. He's a good man. We're with them all the way. Will he be on the Board of Peace, sir? I'd like to happen on the Board. I'd like to. We may need an interpreter, but that's okay.

A better for peace, but would that have a movement? As long as the President, he can't do better. The Board of Peace, I'll be the Board of Peace. board of peace I'll be there we've had many leaders want to be on the board actually the board of pieces it's taken on Steve I'd say a life of its own has you want to discuss that what's happened I think we have a long list of past the case to be on that one that's everybody wants that's very nice it's

better than the other way usually it's the other way nobody wants to be on the board but it's it's really taken on this whole thing has taken on a life that's very different so it's been It's been really a great, a great honor. And you people have done a fantastic job. I want to tell you that we appreciate it very much. Thank you very much, everybody. All right, all right, all right.

Thank you. Goodness gracious. Blown my eardrum out. You scream so much. I just want to look forward to your excellency support and your sponsorship with us. in the conference for the reconstruction. Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you, everybody. All right, let's just see, let's just see if they answer any further questions. Holy smokes, that was loud. Okay, we'll be at the White House tomorrow with Trump. I mean, did you put all that in context? We'll be at the White House tomorrow with Trump.

ALX. President Trump is going to be delivering official remarks, correct? What is the run of show here? What is going to have next? President Trump delivering a speech in Egypt to global leaders. I'm not sure what that means. They have gathered in Shara al-Shire.

Shik, Charm el-shek. I don't pretend to be particularly fancy. Not one of those guys who can like tell you every capital of the world and everything like that. Don't care. I know the capitals of the 50 states in America. That's like pretty much what I care about. I can tell you, I can tell you about Amory, Mississippi. But ladies and gentlemen, he's in Charmel Sheck.

He's in Charmel Sheck in Egypt. World leaders will be there. This is what the shots can look like. Very interesting. You can see the flags of every Arab, of many Arab nations. You can see the flags of some European nations there. Will we have a bunch of European leaders there? Who knows?

This is what it's going to look like. It says peace in the Middle East. We're certainly going to catch this speech. there's going to be one one hack of a speech here very interesting ladies gentlemen you see president trump there recruiting for the the peace what is what is it called guys the peace consortium what's it called what was trump recruiting there for yeah the peace council right yeah the super friends peace council president trump recruiting there the president of israel uh of egypt in order to be on it uh very complimentary roasting hillary clinton a little bit which was hilarious um but if you have

Kangman, can you get that tweet, ALX, please? Because not everyone can recruit like this. Not everyone can recruit like this. I want to tell a fun story about this team

and exactly what we were able to do. There's a talented young creator and Kangman Lee who got fired from his job got canceled because of his beliefs, because he loved freedom, and he loved America. He supported Charlie Kirk, and he posted that I was fired for my job again, for my beliefs.

And that post went viral and made me very upset. We were flying at the time, New York. But I saw it, and I was like, well, this would be a fun little project. How about we go ahead and promote Kangman in this story? I will respond and say, I'll respond to this post here that you can see here, did 13 million views. And I didn't know the guy. You know, I didn't know him. I had never met him.

I'll hire you for your beliefs. Want to come work for me? And he said, yo, can you stop up in the DMs? We went back and forth, had a nice little chat.

It seems like a great, really sharp young man. Extremely talented. And within 24 hours, we were able to get King Min Lee on our team. And, well, he started this weekend, actually. Proud to announce that Kingman Lee has now accepted a position at our growing media company. He will join Team Benny immediately. making this the single shortest cancellation in modern history.

Now, can we finally do it? Can we finally play some of the highlights from President Trump this morning? Again, President Trump will be making a speech soon to the Middle Eastern countries. And he is fresh off of this speech in the Knesset. We also have a fantastic next guest up. I'm just checking in with the producer team. Is Pastor Doug Wilson set, locked in? Ready to go? Okay.

Thank you, guys. I want to make sure that we have ample time with the pastor as well. To lead into that, though, something that has just been clobbered this morning because there's so much news. Let's just do the super cut of President Trump's commentary to the Knesset here, and then we'll pop over to Pastor Doug Wilson right afterwards. Okay, here we go. Here's a wrap up of Donald Trump, letting it rip, the president of peace. Here we go. This is not only the end of a war.

This is the end of the age of terror and death and the beginning of the age of faith and hope and of God. It's the start of a grand concord and lasting harmony for Israel and all the nations of what will soon be a truly magnificent. region. I believe that so strongly. This is the historic dawn of a new Middle East. More obvious than ever that the productive and responsible nations of this region should not be enemies or adversaries. You should be partners and eventually even friends, and that's what's going to happen. I know it. Together you can stand against the forces of chaos. Yeah, you go ahead. That's an important point. because you can stand against the forces of chaos that threatened all of your interests and it's always a big threat always a big threat and unleash incredible prosperity and opportunity

for all the people of these lands but when you settle eight wars in eight months that means you don't like war everyone thought i was going to be brutal in fact i remember hillary clinton during a debate she said look at him look at him he's going to go to war with everybody And actually, she said, he's got a personality that's all about war. No, and my personality actually is all about stopping wars. And it seems to work. It seems to work. I'm rolling.

But it also means this name change and our attitude that we're not going to go into a war. But if we do, we're going to win that war like nobody has ever won a war before. Palestinians could not be more clear. This is their chance to turn forever from the path of terror and violence. It's been extreme to exile the wicked forces of hate that are in their midst. And I think that's going to happen. I've met some people over the last couple of months that want to see it happen very much. And after tremendous pain and death and hardship, now is the time to concentrate on building their people up instead of trying to tear. drill down. We don't want that to happen again. And the total focus of Gazans must be on restoring the fundamentals of stability, safety, dignity, and economic development so they can finally have the better life that their children really do deserve after all these decades of horror. I intend to be a partner in this effort in the sense that we're going to help

and we're going to do something that became unbelievably popular. Everybody wants to be on it. It's called the Board of Peace. All right, the Board of Peace, ladies and gentlemen, President Trump bringing peace. President Trump knocking Hillary Clinton. Again, that was this morning. As the hostages were all released, there are now no more human captives by Hamas. And the Free Palestine, free Palestine people, they're so damn silent.

Where'd they go? And anybody like, where are you? Where'd you go? Where's the marches with all the orcs that have been chanting free Palestine with their nose rings and their pink hair and their lack of deodorant showers? Like, where are you exactly? Where'd you go? What happened to you? You'd assume that they'd be marching through the streets, holding up giant signs of Donald Trump.

saying this is our dear leader like wouldn't this be the time exactly for those people you know Trump just like freed Palestine isn't that what you've been asking for like they're like they

like they're gonna get the land back you've read the peace deal like they released all the hostages the hostages are back home and and now that they're going to get the land back and they're going to be free right like the war's over and the killing's done like it wasn't it isn't it the thing that you guys were all for where are you exactly where are all the libs and their little kifahs where's gretta tinburg

where is she when is she going to be sailing on like a giant yacht with like trump's name on it like praising trump dumping a bunch of motor oil into the ocean while she does it the free gaza. Didn't Trump just do that? I don't know. I don't know. Maybe somebody who's way smarter than me. Maybe somebody is way smarter than me

who can talk about what it looks like to be part of the religion of peace, the true religion of peace, Christianity. Pastor Doug Wilson, who is the senior minister of Christchurch. who I learned about because he did this incredible interview with CNN, where the CNN reporter and Pamela Brown, she's just like gasping the whole time because Pastor Doug Wilson just straight up

explained Christianity to her, right? And just like explained what Christianity is. It's like amazing. And perhaps, look at his expression. When the, when, when, when your feminism gets hit by Christianity for the first time, right? These conflicting worldviews. The point is, is that Christianity is the religion of freedom, liberty, peace. What President Trump is doing is actually totally and completely aligned with our Christian doctrine.

I don't pretend to be an expert on that. But Pastor Doug Wilson is, and he joins our show. show. Bye. Forgive me, Pastor. I'm just such a fan of that CNN interview. Thanks. So that came out kind of nice. Yeah. I would love to talk about it. But since we are talking peace in the Middle East right now, perhaps you could elucidate for us how Christianity is, in fact, the religion of peace and freedom through the laws of God. God and our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and how President Trump is acting in full alignment actually

by delivering peace today. Yeah. There's a difference between peace as an idol and peace as the result of adherence to truth, objective truth. If you try to, if you make peace an idol, then you're going to find yourself appeasing and accommodating and just trying to get people to go away. and you're trying to buy the moth, and all that does is breed more conflict. It breeds more war. If you stand for what is objectively right, what objectively has to happen,

and your goal is peace, then what's gonna happen is something like what we see here today in the Middle East. Now, there's an important distinction to make, and I believe that this peace deal is different than others for this reason. If we zoom in, I would have preferred when the war started.

I would have preferred for Hamas simply to have been annihilated, right? I wanted Hamas out of the picture because they're not dedicated to this process at all. But if you zoom out, the reason why I think this peace deal is more promising than other peace deals is that it appears that the president has enlisted the support of numerous Arab countries in the region. that will keep the heat on radical groups. So the reason we've had perpetual conflict in the Middle East is because of secret supply lines that fund groups like Hamas and Hezbollah and that sort of thing,

whether it's from a country like Iran or it's from misguided philanthropic organizations in the West, in Europe, and the United States. Who kept the PLO alive for all those years? How is it possible for a terrorist organization to simply have unlimited funds? Where's that coming from? Well, if you cut the supply lines, if you say, okay, no more of that, and all the regional Arab countries are on board with a souped-up Abraham Accords, everybody is on board with this.

Then what is going to happen is the free Palestine is not. a free platform for launching rockets into Israel, right? So the danger of, hey, we just brokered a piece and everybody agreed to stop shooting, which we would only get from Israel if we, if the United States just pressured Israel to the endth degree. That's the only way we'd get that. Okay, they agreed to be, they agreed to continue to have rockets being fired at them, right? That is simply doing the same thing over and over. again. But if you zoom out and you say, okay, we are committed to objective truth and our goal

is peace, that is promising. And the objective truth is that if Israel, excuse me, if Hamas laid down their arms, there would be peace. If Israel laid down their arms, there would be a destroyed Israel, right? That's the situation that it has been up to this point. So the only thing that is going to restrain groups like Hamas, keep them from growing or flourishing, is the objective strength of people who are saying no more, no more of that. And what the president has apparently done is enlisted all the regional countries, probably Iran accepted, to keep things stable. And basically, this is very promising, as can be seen by the release of the hostages. Yeah, I've really been an interesting discovery for me as I've been working through what the scriptures actually say about the role of government and how Christians have been sciopped into thinking that it's our job to just roll over and let evil people do whatever they want.

And that's actually, that's actually fundamental. antithetical to the scriptures and to the New Testament and to the work of Christ. And there's something horrible that's happened to the Christian church where it's just like just get rid of any of your ability to fight, any of your ability to stand for truth, become weaklings, become limp, and become flat, like incapable of fighting back. And you look at Romans 13, pastor, and it's like, no, actually, the government is in by God. God gives them the sword. The sword is there for terror of evil people. And that is the role of the government is to protect good and to do terrorism to evil, to, so that evil lives

in fear. And I know that I love seeing that as a as a point of strength. I think the Trump administration is really taking that that Christian doctrine and that Christian structure of government and actually applying it. And I know that that's happening with the Secretary of War, right? I know that, I believe that he's a member of your church. Yeah, he's the, he belongs to a church in our denomination, yes. Yeah. And I love seeing that apply because that creates actually a more peaceful world.

In fact, and always has in Christiandom. Yes. And there's a distinct difference between, on a personal level, level, a soft answer turns away wrath, as proverb says, or to turn the other cheek, as the Lord says. There are situations that actually call for that. But that's different than standing by when you're a magistrate, let's say, and someone under your authority is attacking someone else, right? Right. What's the, is it the magistrate's job to tell the victim to turn the other cheek? No, that's not his job. So in Romans 13, God gives the sword to the magistrate to reward the

righteous and punish the wrongdoer. And right and wrong are defined by scripture, not by the lusts and desires of the magistrate. So in fact, several times in that passage, the magistrate is called God's deacon, God's servant. So God's servant is appointed by God to punish the wrongdoer. So when someone is mugged or attacked or there's some violent outbreak, it's not the magistrate's job to tell the victim to turn the other cheek. Now, it may be in a personal situation, the task of a believer, you know, when Christians were being thrown to the lions, it was not the Christians had no political power, no military power. And in times of persecution like that, it is our calling and task to simply suffer patiently. and trust God for the long range outcome. That is true.

But if you are a magistrate who has the power to stop something like that and you refuse to do it, then God's gonna hold you accountable for that. Like we shouldn't suffer terrorist networks on our borders. No. Right? Like I don't think that Israel should be forced to suffer a terrorist network that shares a border with them. And right now, there's cartels in Mexico

that have gladly, visited terrorism upon our people in this land. We shouldn't suffer that, right? Like, can you talk me through pastor of the Christian doctrine that says, we shouldn't be letting somebody out who's been arrested 30 times for violent crimes to go stab a poor woman on a bus and kill her? Like that's actually antithetical to Christianity. Can you walk?

Can you talk me through that, please? That's a photo negative of the way it ought to be. And so the way I talk you through it is in the Bible, originally, you didn't have chapter and verse markings. So it was like the letter to the Romans was one long-sustained epistle. If you read Romans chapter 12, there's a long stretch of it where Paul is sounding very much like the sermon on the Mount, bless those to persecute you, do not reward evil for evil. Do not take vengeance, not because vengeance is wrong, but because vengeance is mine, saith the Lord.

So don't take personal vengeance at the end of chapter 12 because God says, vengeance is mine. That's my job. And then you go into Romans 13. Well, how does God exercise vengeance? So if someone, if there's a horrific crime, you don't go home and get your gun and go as a vigilante and try to take care of it yourself, what you do is you leave room for God's wrath.

Step aside for God's wrath, Paul says. And then in the very next verse in Romans 13, the very next passage, he says, God's agent of wrath is the magistrate. God appoints the authorities as his deacons to punish the wrongdoer and reward the righteous. So consequently, the fact that that man with that lunatic was able to stab that poor girl on the train was because the magistrate was derelict. the system of justice, the police force, et cetera, that was derelict. Now, I know that someone complained about the policing in that situation,

and the police had a legitimate comeback. They said, what do you mean? We arrested that guy multiple times. This is not the policing system. This is the judicial system and the elected officials that put up with that kind of monstrosity. So it was the duty of the magistrate. to have that man either out of the public, so he couldn't hurt anybody, or executed, which is another way of removing him from a hazardous position.

I don't know what his priors were, but basically he needed to be out of commission. He needed to be not in a position to do that. And a government that doesn't live up to its responsibilities there is a wicked government. It says in Ecclesiastes, where justice is not. speedily executed upon the criminal there the heart of man is filled to do evil okay so deterrence works the bible requires the magistrate to function in terms of deterrence with the standard of right and wrong established by god's word and not by humanist hallucinations so let's talk about those humanist hallucinations versus what law and order and an actual orderly society would look like so this is why

it's so important to understand and to live out our Christian roots as a nation. Is it not? Like, you know, we often use the John Adams quote that this entire nation was conceived just for a moral, for a moral and religious people. And it is unsuitable for any other, any other population. Obviously, you get hit constantly for being an advocate for Christian nationalism, so does our show. So, so did Charlie Kirk. And yet, if you actually look at the foundations of this country and the only way that it, that it properly operates and where the institutions come from, they are from the tradition of Christendom. Could you perhaps, could you, could you elucidate for us? Correct.

There are certain basic worldviews, only maybe seven total possible worldviews among men. And they don't all generate the same ethical systems. But different religions, different worldviews, value different things. Islam does not generate the same kind of ethical system that Christianity does. It does not generate the same kind of ethical system that secular materialism does and so forth. Now, it means you should not, if that being the case, if you take millions, hundreds of thousands and millions of people from one ethical, one region of the world that, that taps into one of these ethical systems and drop them into the United States where there is a different ethical system, a different tradition of law and so forth,

all you're going to have is trouble. All you're going to have is societal chaos. And the fact that it appears clear to me that a bunch of this chaos is deliberate. In other words, it's being fomented in order to have a transition away from our Christian roots. away from our Christian foundation. And the process by which this happens is anarcho tyranny. So anarcho tyranny is where the lawless criminal thugs are given free rein, slaps on the wrist, turn back into the public, like functional anarchy, where the most dangerous, unstable people are allowed to operate with impunity, largely impunity. And if a law-abiding person,

defends himself, or fights back in any way, or even criticizes what's going on, they land on him like a ton of bricks. They know how to enforce the law, right? But they've got a different law in mind. So in the UK, if you're running a Pakistani rape gang, all right, then you get a buy. But if you criticize, if you go onto Facebook and criticize Pakistani rape gangs, you might be facing five years in jail. Right. So they come after you with a vengeance. So if this, and this is selective anarchy, selective tyranny. And, uh, and the whole thing appears to me to be a, a very deliberate attempt to destabilize our civilization. And so consequently our job, I, I believe our task is Christians, is to stand up for the West. Simply, with the RBC Avion Visa, you can book any airline,

Conditions apply. Visit rbc.com slash avion. To say this, we've had the traditions that we have, have and the protections that we have and the rights that we have for a reason now i want to be critical of our our society as well because we've largely forgotten those reasons we've been uh we've been sort of coasting it's like the prodigal son didn't run out of money the first weekend away from home he took this large inheritance and he went off and spent it but that took a while so we have we have had in the west a large amount of moral capital that we inherited from the first christendom we had a lot

of moral capital and we have been on a binge we've been we've been spending it like there's no tomorrow and we've gotten to the point where like the prodigal son we're staring at the pig food we're saying man that looks kind of good we don't know what's up or we're down anymore we are so confused it is we've been pitched into the void we have a justice sitting on the Supreme Court who was asked during her confirmation hearings what a woman was and she couldn't answer the question because she was not a biologist but if you don't know what a woman is you don't know what a human being is and if you don't know what a human being is you don't know what human rights are and that means we have someone on the Supreme Court who has no idea of what humanity is no idea And you might say, well, she has an idea, according to the secular assumption, humanity is an amorphous blob like Mr. Potato Head that you can stick different parts on and come up with your own invention. But that's not what humanity is, because God says in Genesis that God created us in his image,

male and female, created he them. That's what a human being is. We bear the image of God, and we've known this for thousands of, of years. But those who want to reject that in favor of secular atheism want to deny the image of God in man. And that's what they're trying to deface the image of God and man. They're trying to scratch it out. They're trying to erase it. Another illustration I use is, let's say there's a king and a castle of just and holy and righteous king. He lives in a castle and he's got a strong army, but the villagers down in the valley hate him. Well, they can't attack him. They can't overthrow his castle

up there in heaven, but they're down in the valley and they don't like him and they hate him. What can they do? Well, they can make an image of him and they can burn the image in effigy. And that's what this whole sexual revolution has been, an attempt to scratch out, deface, burn the image of God and man. Because we can't get at him. We can't attack heaven, but we can attack his image. We can burn him in effigy. And so it must be wholesale rejected. And it feels like, pastor, there's been good work that's been done. What is your assessment of the state of America right now?

I would say post Charlie Kirk's assassination, we've seen some of God's wonders. I believe we also saw some of God's wonders with President Trump surviving an assassin's bullet, but it seems like we are sort of on a razor's edge where things could go really right or things could go really wrong. That is correct. If you, if you try to remember the way we were feeling just this time last year. Just go back one year. The election had not yet happened. We were sort of on pins and needles. Are they going to cheat again? Are they going to pull something

out of their hat again? What, you know, what's going to happen? And you look at where we were then, and you look at where we are now. God has been supremely kind to us. That doesn't mean that it's all over. It doesn't mean that we don't have work to do. We have a lot of work to do. But we are in a far, far better position than we were this time last year. And that includes God sparing the president's life at Butler, and it includes God calling Charlie home the way he did. Because one of the things about that assassination, that grotesque murder, is that it took the mask off. Everybody could see in stark relief what we are up against. And that's why it is so, just as an aside, it is dismaying to see conspiracy theories cropping up about that assassination.

As I just wrote in my blog post this morning, it's as though Pearl Harbor happened and the whole country rallies ready to go to war with Japan and somebody, an influencer suggests that maybe Canada did it. How hard would it be to paint a big red dot on Canadian airplanes and attack Pearl Harbor? Well, there's no way to interpret that other than to say you're muddy, at the very best interpretation, you're muddying the waters. America saw how demented and hate-filled the left is, right? They don't disavow violence because violence is at the heart of their system. And that's why, going back to your earlier question, Christian faith is peaceful.

Christ is the Prince of Peace. Now, that means that when conflict happens, because it's sometimes necessary for it to happen, the goal of the conflict is peace, right? The goal of leftist violence is to vent the hatred. And this is why you saw in Virginia in the debate between Winsom Sears and her opponent, can you just denounce this murderous thinking that was expressed by this fellow running for AG? And silence, silence. They can't disavow hate-fueled, hate-filled violence.

because that's the gasoline they run on. I mean, at what point then do we have a broken society? Because you can't unite. It is immoral to unite with evil, of course. You can't make peace with people who want you dead, pastor. So then what are we left with as Christians in this nation? Okay, so my dad wrote a book called Principles of War and not Methods of War, but he was applying principles of warfare to evangelism and spiritual conflict.

And principles of war would be things like mobility, surprise, objective, concentration, and so forth. One of the principles is communication, which includes supply lines. When Napoleon invaded Russia, he overextended his supply lines. And that's why he had that ignominious retreat. One of the fundamental things is going on here is we have to realize as conservatives that we've been fighting, we've been funding our own efforts, and we've also been funding the efforts of the other team. We are the supply corps for both sides of our conflict, as was revealed by the USAID controversy in the early Doge days of the Trump administration. So what we need to do, and this is what I think the president has done. in the Middle East is cutting supply lines.

If you cut the support that Hamas has, a lot of this dries up and goes away. If the Antifa types have no supplies coming from the outside, no soros money, no surreptitious dropping off the pallets of bricks before the riot, none of that stuff. If you don't pay your astroturfing protesters, If you don't pay them, what kind of turnout are you going to get? So basically, I think that we are going to be in a position if over the next year or two,

a diligent effort is made to cut the supply lines. We're going to see how robust their support actually is. A lot of this has to do with the blinkered complacence of conservatives who've just taken at face value, the image that the left is projected of itself and that has been funded from outside so we I think our big

our big goal should be to think funding funding funding who's paying for this I want to ask a final question here because you're so right Christians often through total complacency or through

shame siops through cultural pressure, major pastors refuse to talk about good versus evil. Major pastors can't talk about issues like gay marriage or abortion. It's not that they can't. They just refuse, right? They refuse to talk about God made them male and female. They refused to talk about the first verse of Genesis.

The first command of God to man is go be fruitful and multiply. Right. This is the first command. The first command wasn't the Ten Commandments. It was that, right? I'm going to make men and women and then go be fruitful and multiply. Bring the earth under the minute. Go make babies.

Yes, go make babies, exactly. Right. And so it's, it is, you know, I just, why have Christians become so weak? How can we reform? I believe that we could really reform the nation through the pulpit, quite frankly. We still live in a majority Christian nation. um not by a little but by a lot and i think that there's still hope in the in pastors reconnecting with actual christianity and and that revival spirit that i think everyone still feels there's still

like sort of this kinetic energy out there um you know how do we how do we turn how do we how do we turn the cowards of christianity um you know around into really speaking truth once again from the scriptures yeah so over the last over the course of my lifetime at least the over the over the Overton window, the window that defines acceptable discourse in any society, has gradually been slipping left, sliding left, gradually. So, for example, I'm considered a hater because my view of marriage, one man, one woman, and that's it, right? That's the biblical definition of marriage, because my definition of marriage is identical to the position that Obama took and Hillary took in their runs for president right in 2008 yeah so you're talking you're talking less than yeah less than

about a decade ago yeah right so the let the and everybody the reason the reason they got a pass on that is because everybody knew they were lying right but the the window has steadily moved left right and so consequently the most radical extreme right wingers are moderates who never moved okay and that that's what's happened now the events of the last five years uh COVID the lockdowns vaccine mandates uh every uh major institution in American public life disgracing itself uh blue state governors it's just a total chaos everything's up in the air and then culminating at events which reflect which is reflected in the re-election of Donald Trump and in the convulsive activity that includes things like the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

As a result of the last five years, the Overton window is farther to the right than it's ever been in my lifetime. And that means we have an opportunity to talk. The Overton window simply allows you to talk, right? What can you say without getting hooted off the stage? Right. And those Christian pastors and theologians and writers who know what the truth is, as the saying goes, who know what time it is, should use this opportunity to speak up. Because there are a lot of people who have been, their instincts are good, but they're not educated, they're not equipped. And they need to hear truth, which will hit them like embracing mountain air.

they're such a starvation for truth right now there's such a starvation and i know that you've seen this in the explosive uh growth of your church right i mean you've had you've you now have just this massive growth in in in in the christ church what is it a thousand different is a thousand different well well no it's not that not many churches there's about 170 total works that we have. But in Moscow here, we have basically doubled in size. Moscow, Iowa. Sorry, Moscow, Idaho. We, we have, trust me, we have very special people that watch the show every day. Just want to confirm we're in Moscow, Idaho. Now, a generation ago, there was a very blue dot, meaning that there were probably more than a few sympathizers

with the other Moscow here. But as the growth of the, the church here has gradually been turning this town purple in the opposite direction going from blue to red and there are thousands of us here about 10% of the population and a lot of this simply has to do with normal people waking up it's i believe that the shine has gone off of progressive leftism i believe that for anybody who's got a normal stable life and something to a home, a job, a vocation. We need to articulate what it is, what it's gonna take to defend that sort of thing.

Yes, yes. I just find this with young people all the time, Pastor. I'm telling you, we were at a tailgate. We were at a tailgate, we did a turning point event at a tailgate two weeks ago. And there's thousands of young men lined up, and they were all in frats, and like, they should have been chasing skirt

and run out of the cheerleaders and doing Kegg stands, they were there to talk about Jesus Christ at 8 a.m. in a parking lot. Right. And in front of the Penn State, Beaver Stadium holds like 100,000 people. And that's what those young frat boys were there to talk about. Right. And that's what is that? That's wild and awesome, actually. That was the Charlie insight. Charlie saw that a lost generation, ultimately at the bottom line, doesn't like being lost, right? Living, when you're 21 years old, nihilism for most people is for the birds. You just don't want it. And so the established Big Eva approach of moderate, let's try to be winsome, let's never argue a specific point of view, all that did was feed the nihilism,

feed the hopelessness. And Charlie understood that young people, need answers. And so Chesterton once said, the purpose of an open mind is the same as the purpose of an open mouth. It's meant to close on something. So what Charlie did was he argued for a specific point of view, he assumed the reality of objective truth, and he discovered this vast, untapped reservoir of genuine seekers who want to know the truth. They want their lives to mean something. They want to be more than a bit of protoplasm, right? And yet the received wisdom of our age reduces people to just that. Meat, bones, and protoplasm.

All you are is a moist robot. Yeah. And your life doesn't matter, and it's all by accident. And there's nothing left for you at the end of it. So you might as well be on the yacht and Abiza with as much crypto as possible and have no relationships and nothing and die alone, right? And that's the promise. And it's like being even,

it's being rejected pastor by the people who, like some of the like Dan Belsary and some of the biggest influencers that live that life are now like coming to their senses and doing interviews like that was all a lie actually. Materialism was all a lie. And now I'm scared of dying alone because now I'm 55. And it's not true, by the way. It's like not true.

Would the richest man on earth arguably probably the richest man ever exist, Elon Musk. All he wants is children. All he wants is people to have more children. That's the point of life. The guy could have anything, including potentially the first house on Mars. And the actual purpose of his being is like, we should have more babies. Like you should become a father. You should become a mother. Like take it from the guy that has literally everything, including space travel. Right. And then when you when you inculcate this sort of sanctified or precinctified or precede up nihilism and you foist it on a young generation some of them will go all in and they'll open open fire in the school cafeteria right yeah and we say and then we say oh what happened what went

wrong nothing went wrong they followed your argument others of them are dissatisfied with that and they are hungry and they turn out turn out to your event at penn state uh so what you have if people are people are dividing up and uh i think of the the great quote from the abolition of man by c s lewis he said we laugh at honor and are shocked to find traders in our midst we we uh castrate and bid the gildings to be fruitful we remove the organ and demand the function uh you can't you cannot cut down all the apple trees and then wonder where the apple pie went right you just simply can't do that. And so consequently, the task before us right now to these hungry young people is to preach the gospel. Christ died. He was buried. He rose again from the dead. He ascended

into heaven. And he cares how we're living our lives now. Yes. Yes. And God created you with a purpose. God doesn't need you. He created you for a reason. Like God doesn't need a Benny. He doesn't need Doug Wilson. He didn't need a Charlie Kirk. He created a Charlie Kirk and a Donald Trump for a specific purpose. Your life has a purpose. Your pursuit of that purpose gives you meaning. And foundationally, if you do it through Christ's plan, getting married, having children, having meaning in life, bringing more souls into existence, then you reconnect with what God actually has planned for you, which is that you are a spiritual being far more than a physical being. Absolutely right. All human meaning, all human value requires a transcendental grounding.

Yes. Meaning comes from outside the world. Yes. Man, the pastor, I was super, I was very, I was very nihilist and, you know, I had, you know, it's just is what it is. And, you know, I got married and it was great. And then I had my first kid. You know, like, you welcome your first child to the world and it is like literal, and the angels sing. And it's just for you, by the way. It's just a miracle for you. It's like a specific miracle just for you as a father. And you hold that baby for the first time. And you just, there's no way to describe it.

You just, the washes of emotion over, overcome you, no matter who you are. Like the strongest most, the strongest meanest men on earth, like are reduced to to blubbering tears when they hold their firstborn, newborn, newborn child or any child, you know, any of their children. It's happened to every single child of my, I have four kids. And it's like, I would never have that experience. That came to so much closer to God. actually, having that experience. And then every day I come home to those little babies. And it gives me so much purpose in life and so much connectivity. There's a great anti-communist classic book, a great conservative book called Witness by Whitaker Chambers, who was a Soviet spy. And he worked

with Alger Hiss. And that's how Richard Nixon first made his name going after Alger Hiss. Well, in Chambers' book, Witness, he was a communist, atheist, all-in. and his conversion began with staring at his young daughter's ear. Yeah. So, yeah. It was, you know, where did this come from? All of a sudden, life is not what I thought it was. Right.

And then men need to see that. And men need that. And so, yeah, that's why in our own poor capacity, we understand, like, that that is the missing gap. And that Charlie really did really did get that. So it's an exciting, it's an exciting moment to be a Christian. It's an exciting moment to be locked in as a, you know, as a country and in the faith. And I think that we're going to see God's wonders here. And we're already seeing them.

Absolutely. It'll be something fun to fight alongside you with pastor. Pastor Doug Wilson here. You can, here's his website. You can also follow the pastor on, on X. You have an X? No. I do my producers miss that?

Okay, so as my producer team checks in with their caffeine, let me tell you about my caffeine. You see, our blackout coffee. There we go. In the unfortunately empty cup, as I have plowed through an entire pot of coffee this morning. Again, I'm fighting a little bug here. So I'm just want to, you know, caffeine is wildly important in those moments.

you know what when you have like little kids they're licking every doorknob they're licking the welcome mat at walmart they are vectors for every virus or every bacteria in the world it's just is what it is i love my children so much we just talked about with the pastor about like you know how invaluable how precious and angelic my children are but that's just the that's just the nature of the kids then they bring home something and then you get it and you're like ah I got to have my caffeine. You're like dragging in the morning. I got to have my caffeine.

Ladies and gentlemen, blackout coffee is my caffeine for days like today. Now, I don't know if Trump drinks coffee. I know it drinks a lot of caffeine in the form of soft drinks. But my caffeine does not come from coffee. My caffeine comes from the black roasted bean of blackout coffees, all American team that roast. hosts in-house, packages in-house, ships in-house, and their beautiful facility right here in the state of Florida.

It is such a damn good coffee because it's made by Patriots. Here, it's a small batch, and it is the best coffee out there. I drink it every single morning, especially on mornings like today where, boy, howdy, we just, we're just trying to make it through, right? Yeah, you know those days. If you believe in hard work, American values, and coffee that actually tastes like coffee, go to blackout coffee.com slash Benny and use the code Benny for 20% off your first order. support the American dream and drink blackout blackout coffee.com real coffee okay uh ladies and

gentlemen oh okay the production team is trying to figure out what the thanksgiving thing happy thanksgiving is it Canadian Thanksgiving that's what everyone's saying uh we don't know President Trump is supposed to make a speech here in Egypt I'd hate to miss it but I don't know if it's going to be another three hours. So I'm like begging the team to maybe figure that out. I don't know. Like I just I'm not sure. We have more fun stuff to talk about.

Obviously there was a little bit of a laymore that went on on ABC News, one of our favorite little targets. ABC. What a disaster of a network. Disney owned ABC News cut off. Vance, because they got all pissy that J.D. Vance was making a great point on their program. And so they cut to a commercial break. ABC News was trying to push a new hoax, and J.D. wasn't having any of it.

It is definitely the clip of the weekend. This went insanely viral. ABC News is publicly funded, right? They get all these lavish goodies from the taxpayer. You'd think they'd show a little respect. Check this out. This is, This clip really pissed me off. Here's George why fewer and fewer people watch your program and why you're losing credibility, because you're talking for now five minutes with the Vice President of the United States about this story regarding Tom Holman's a story that I've read about, but I don't even know the video that you're talking about.

Meanwhile, low-income women can't get food because the Democrats and Chuck Schumer have shut down the government. Right now, we're trying to figure out how to pay our troops because Chuck Schumer has shut down the government. You were focused on a bogus story. You're insinuating criminal wrongdoing against a guy who has done nothing wrong instead of focusing on the fact that our country is struggling because our government's shut down. Let's talk about the real issues, George. I think the American people would benefit much more from that than from you going down some weird left-wing rabbit hole where the facts clearly show that Tom Homan didn't engage in any criminal wrongdoing. It's not a weird left-wing rabbit hole. I didn't insinuate anything.

I asked you whether Tom Homan accepted $50,000, as was heard on an audio tape recorded by the FBI in September 2024, and you did not answer the question. Thank you for your time this morning. No, George, I said that I don't. Up next, we'll be right back. What a little girl. George Stephanopoulos is little, by the way. How tall is George Stephanopoulos? And by the way, ALX, that clip didn't include Stephanopoulos' question, right?

Sort of like show the answer, right? So let's make sure that we get the actual question in there. How tall is George Stephanopouls? He's five feet five. My wife is taller than him. Yikes. Yeah, now the production chat's sounding off. Klein's girlfriend's taller than him.

Boy. Um, yeah, he is a teeny little man. Uh, George Stephanopoulos. Oh, boy, that is embarrassing. Yikes. Look at that. George Stephanophilus is and was Bill Clinton's actual hatchet, man. What do you mean by that?

He was the, he was the press secretary for Bill Clinton. Oh, that's a good one. Leave that one up. That's perfect. So let's do just a real quick take down, breakdown of George Slopinopoulos, as President Trump calls him. This guy was the hatchet man for Bill Clinton. He was the press secretary for Bill Clinton. He did operations for Bill Clinton.

Like press operate. Like he was the guy, the cleanup guy that they called in at the White House in order to attack the press, in order to bully and badger, and to get Clinton's, agenda, right, voiced in the media. This guy is a total and complete bag man for the Democrat Party. That's what he did. This is how he made his bones. He has been hired not by MSNBC, which I don't even have a problem with MSNBC hiring Gen Saki.

Kaylee McEnany, we were on her show this weekend. Kaylee McAnney was hired by Fox News. Okay, is what it is. All right? I don't have a problem with people getting jobs in media. it's that they are trying to say that George Stephanopoulos is totally and completely nonpartisan, independent, and not biased in any way, which is an absurdity given his background. Of course, Kaylee McInney, who worked for Donald Trump, is going to have some allegiance to Donald Trump.

I mean, she freaking worked for him as the press secretary. Love Kaylee McInney. but like the fact that they trot out george stephanopoulos as this like impartial juror of newsworthiness at least through a lot of problems for a bc like for instance how abc news had to pay 15 million dollars we have that article ABC news had to pay 15 million dollars to don't trump to fund donald trump's presidential library because george tennopoulos told about Donald Trump said he was a rapist. Donald Trump, of course, was never convicted of rape. This is what they've done. So it's very costly to have frauds like this in your newsroom.

And it's obviously like antithetical to human nature. You know, like I worked for Bill Clinton. So it's embarrassing. He did the exact same thing, by the way, in 2020. 24. He cut off J.D. Vance. And it's a total, you know, look, again, he's just a fraud. And he's just a Democrat partisan hack. Here we go. By by legitimate Supreme Court rulings, doesn't it? The Constitution says that the Supreme Court can make rulings, but if the Supreme Court, and look, I hope that they would not do this, but if the Supreme Court said that President of the United States can't fire a general, that would be an illegitimate ruling, and the president has to have Article 2 prerogative under the Constitution to actually run the military as he sees fit.

This is just basic constitutional legitimacy. You're talking about a hypothetical where the Supreme Court tries to run the military. I don't think that's going to happen, George. But of course, if it did, the president would have to respond to it. There are multiple examples throughout American history of the president doing just that. You didn't say military in your answer, and you've made it very clear. You believe the president can defy the Supreme Court. Senator, thanks for your time this morning.

No, no, no, no, George. Ground table's up next. We'll be right back. What a scumbag. Pull ABC News's broadcast license. Let them go hack it out. Like, pull their broadcast license. Let them go fight it out with MSNBC.

Like, let it, like, again, you have to understand, and we've done so much research on this. This is how we know all the pressure points, right? When Jimmy Kimmel does stuff like this is why we're so effective at getting Jimmy Kimmel ripped off. air and it was really fun though i'll look back fondly on that for a long time um we know the pressure points the pressure point is that a bc news has a uh fcc broadcast license this is a federally granted broadcast license that gives abc news free use of american infrastructure provided by the u.s government in order to broadcast news in the public interest does those

two clips seem like the public interest to you cutting off the vice president insulting him Mike? No. I mean, it's propaganda. They're paying for it, obviously. But we shouldn't have to pay for it as taxpayers. They should rip the licenses away from these organizations. ABC News, NBC News. Like, either be fair and broadcast in the public interest, which is in your charter, or we as Americans, need to stop funding it. All right, ladies and gentlemen, my team is telling me that there is just there is just no that that they don't it might be hours before we get to the actual president trump speech unfortunately and so we don't know exactly what's going on next there they're four or five hours behind schedule so so we're not sure

what happens next but we're going to uh we're going to obviously not be able to able to carry on for the next two or three hours. We got a, yeah, last pool update. There's like no pool update. We're flying totally blind. We'd love to carry Trump's speech, but we have a slammed day today. And so, yeah, unfortunately, we're just not going to be able to make it with the speech. We'll clearly if something big happens, we'll do a update on it. Maybe take it live, maybe just do a read on it. But ladies and gentlemen, we're going to end, I guess, on a good note, President Trump, obviously, the president of peace. Somebody who will not be bringing peace is someone who wants to liberate all criminals from New York,

a guy named Zohan Mandami, who's caught in a little bit of a scandal here. Apparently, he took thousands of dollars in illegal foreign donations, $13,000. This is, of course, a big no-no, very naughty. the New York Post has learned that one of the donations were from his mother-in-law thousands of hundreds and thousands of dollars obviously this guy has really creepy

connections globally a true Manchurian candidate here at least 170 of the nearly 54,000 contributions of the leading Democrat candidates campaign came from donors with addresses outside of the United States

according to the New York City campaign finance board. Only U.S. citizens or permanent legal reticons are allowed to contribute. This would be a big violation of, excuse me, federal law, state law. It's very problematic, not just for Zorham, endowment, but anybody with these kind of PACs because it's a license to illegally funnel money. And foreign countries know that you don't have to go to war against America. All you've got to do is manipulate the election. That's exactly right. We'll see what happens. We'll see if there's a full-scale investigation.

President Trump told me that he wants to put Mondami in jail. So there you go. Because you'd be in jail. So happy to get that. All right, ladies and gentlemen, we're logging off today and getting back to work with our verse of the day. Here we go. Ephesians 4.3. Make every effort to keep the unity of the spirit through the bond of peace.

A beautiful message for today. A bond of peace. That is what President Trump is doing in the Middle East. today, and it's our honor to cover it. We're happy that the wars are winding down or over, President Trump saying the war is over. And, well, quite frankly, this is exactly what you should do. If you are a Christian, you should end wars, and you should do it through strength. That's what we're going to be practicing this week. We'll have Eric Trump on the show tomorrow, along with Senator Kennedy. We'll be doing a show live from D.C.

We'll be at D.C. with our show. And then we'll be at the White House. And we'll be on Jesse Waters' show tomorrow night. And so please say a prayer for us, as we will be rocking and rolling once again. I'm wishing to honor Charlie at his Medal of Freedom Ceremony at the White House. So join us tomorrow. May God bless you. This is the greatest country on earth.

And in the end, we win. It's your boy, Benny. See you. Fire flies and incense burning in the tent All of the time I spent In the sands of Egypt What is why they built the mirror made so big Well there's not a single building left in the world
