Listening to the Eric Metaxe show? Well, welcome. Tune in and then move on to item number eight, skydiving with Chuck Schumer and AOC.
Here now is Mr. Completed Mind.
bucket list at age 12, Eric Mattaxas.
Hey folks, welcome to hour two, where I continue my conversation with our friend,
John Zmirach.
And after this conversation, I'm going to have a conversation with some of our friends
from the Alliance Defending Freedom.
If you have not yet gone to the website, Metaxistalkis Talk.com, we want everybody to participate.
This is a great opportunity.
people say, hey, what can I do?
Do this.
Help the Alliance Defending Freedom.
Go to MetaxusTalk.com.
Folks, please, this is a great opportunity.
They're an amazing organization.
In any event, we'll get to that in a moment.
John Zmirak, let's keep talking.
There's a new film out called Cabridi.
And it's a beautiful period piece said in the 1880s
about this Italian girl who had suffered from tuberculosis
who built a global, she called an.
Empire of Hope. And indeed it was. There are now Cabrini-affiliated hospitals and orphanages and hospices
all around the world extending into Asia. So this little Italian woman, and what I love about this is
when she died, she's the first American to be made a saint. Her body never decayed. Her incorrupt body
is sitting in a glass case, I think, in the gymnasium of a high school north of New York City.
So the kids are playing basketball and having their prongs and dances under a glass case with the incorrupt body of this little Italian saint.
It sounds pretty Catholic to me.
Pretty Catholic.
They don't have anything like this at evangelical churches.
I just want to be very clear.
In the gyms of evangelical churches, they tend not to have the bodies of saints.
Just want to be clear for anybody listening in.
This explains why I'm Catholic.
But all right, so in this film, this film depicts the church doing what it's supposed to do, welcoming legal immigrants, helping them with its own money and encouraging them to be patriotic Americans.
What the Catholic Church and a lot of Protestant churches are doing now is the exact opposite.
Catholic charities, backed by the U.S. bishops, are smuggling illegal immigrants in from Latin America, who America doesn't want, doesn't.
need. There are no jobs for them. And then it's encouraging them to go to public schools where they're
taught not to be patriotic Americans to hate America and get this. Instead of using its own money,
the Catholic Church is making money off of it. The U.S. Catholic bishops in the last 15 years have made
$3 billion with a B in non-profit contracts from the federal government for channeling and processing
and trafficking these illegal immigrants. Every dollar the U.S. bishops had to pay.
because of shuffling pedophiles that molested kids.
They have made it back.
Not that we're taking any divisive stand on child rape.
I want to be very clear.
We're just talking about the gospel.
Please continue.
Every dollar the bishops had to pay out for shuffling pedophiles
and hiding them and not reporting them to police.
They've made back every dollar by human trafficking,
illegal immigrants through organizations like Catholic charities.
So to me, the movie Cabrini broke my heart.
because it showed what the church should do.
And for me, it's excruciatingly painful to see what the church is doing.
And the reason the U.S. bishops were hostile to Trump and why they're not hostile to Biden
is because the money from immigration is what keeps them going.
40% of the last figure I saw, 40% of the bishop's budget was paid by non-profit things
coming from the government, mostly from immigrants.
Every time an illegal immigrant swims the Rio Grande, the bishop's cash at
I would like to find a way if every time a woman chose to keep her baby instead of aborting it, the bishops got a check.
That would be good because then they would start being as pro-life as they currently are pro-open borders.
This is some dark stuff.
Is there another movie you wanted to discount?
There's another movie about something.
I go shoot myself.
Something less discouraging than the Catholic Church in America.
It's about communist China.
It's called Hollywood Takeover.
And our friend Jason Jones is interviewed several times in it.
It's made by the wonderful people at the Epoch Times, those courageous fighters for human rights.
Hollywood takeover shows how China has used its money to censor movies.
The most obvious one was in the remake of Top Gun, they got the Taiwanese flag taken off Tom Cruise's jacket,
which had been historically accurate that they had had taken off.
But they edit our movies.
They edit our media in so many different ways.
And in a great piece at Stream.org, Jason Jones, write a piece called The Great Reset already happened in China.
We're next.
And he shows how the agenda of the Great Reset, the World Economic Forum, Klaus Schwab, George Soros, it is simply to take the Chinese system and rebuild it in the West.
social credit scores, censorship of the media, medical tyranny, even the green, the climate cult.
All of it is designed to centralize power in the hands of elites who shared the same political beliefs
and take away the power of voters to influence any policies and the power of citizens to lead their lives
peacefully and privately.
It points out how the Chinese are conducting a genocide of the Uighur Muslims.
According to Forbes magazine, China makes hundreds of millions of dollars a year,
cutting open the living bodies of Uyghurs and Christians in political prisons
and selling their organs on the global black market.
And if you're giving money to the NBA or to LeBron James,
you're supporting murdering people for their organs,
or am I getting something wrong here?
No, you're absolutely right.
And this is the model.
We saw the Prime Minister of Canada say he wished
he had the same power as the President of China
because then he wouldn't have to deal with these pesky dissidents
resisting his policies.
You and I talked last week about how the new hate crimes bill
they're threatening to pass in Canada
would allow for life sentences for online hate speech
and it would allow for preventative.
People haven't even been convicted of hate speech
who are suspected of hate speech
being put under house arrest.
This is not China.
This is Canada.
Wasn't there a movie like 25 years ago called Gattaca
that's with Tom Cruise or somebody?
Even more of the movie Minority Report
where they have psychics who can see
you're going to commit a crime
and they arrest you before you commit the crime.
That is what they are setting up in Canada,
which again, English speech.
democracy with the Magna Carta, the whole same political heredges of the United States.
It shows you fascism can happen here. And indeed, it is happening here. Then Joe Biden wants it.
Joe Biden is a fascist in the classic sense, in the real sense of the word.
Not that we want to criticize President Biden, of course. Far be it from us. We want to be
winsome in saying that he's a demonic puppet. I say that as winsomly, as you can pronounce the words
demonic puppet.
John, this film you're talking about at Epic Times, what is the title of it again?
Hollywood takeover and it interviews Jason Jones and a bunch of other experts from Hollywood
and they trace the influence that the Chinese government and Communist Party are exerting
on our media to sanitize the image of that racist, fascist dictatorship that rules over
billion people that forces people to have abortions, that cuts the organs out of political prisoners,
and presents it as happy and smiley and, oh, it's Confucius, it's martial arts, it's dim sum.
You hate dim sum, Eric. Then why are you anti-China?
I got to tell you, this is why, I mean, folks, the film is called Hollywood Takeover.
It's true. China has, they have their tentacles into the west. They're not stupid.
and they are changing the world.
And people like Joe Biden have opened the door to the evil that is in the atheist, communist, Chinese world.
Open the door to welcome that into America.
They have been bribed.
Biden, in case you didn't know it, is profoundly corrupt and has sold America out for money.
And that's where we are.
want to end on a positive note, a chipper note, and I have failed. But thank you, my friend.
We are talking about important things. The film is Hollywood Takeover, and then the other film
is Cabrini, very important. John Smirik, God bless you, man. You too, thanks. From small family

Check it out. Hey there, folks. Welcome back. As you know, the Alliance defending freedom is fighting for
you. Maybe you didn't know that. They're fighting.
for you. So as far as I'm concerned, you owe them. Not to put a guilt trip on you, but why not?
Because it's actually true. They are fighting for religious liberty all across this nation.
It's why we are thrilled to be this month doing a fundraiser for them because they actually need your help.
You can go to metaxis talk.com. Honestly, if you knew what they're doing,
you'd want to help them.
People often say to me, Eric, what can I do?
What can I do?
This is the kind of thing you can do and should do
if you care about liberty in America,
which is going away very quickly.
I was going to say not to scare you,
but no, to scare you.
It is going away very quickly.
And if it were not for the Alliance Defending Freedom,
it would already be gone.
Those are not, you know, histrionics.
That's actually true.
And it's why it's my privilege to try to help ADF raise funds,
so they can continue doing what they're doing for us, for American Liberty.
In fact, today it's my privilege to have senior counsel with ADF on the program.
Caleb Dalton, welcome.
Thanks, Eric, for having me.
Appreciate it.
Well, listen, we appreciate you guys and what you were doing.
You are heroes.
We love you.
It's why I beg my audience to be generous.
Go to MetaxusTalk.com.
Please, folks, you'll see the banner.
Please help.
This is for all the marbles, as we say.
It's not 1985.
This is not something in the future.
We have to fight right now.
So, Caleb, what are some of the cases that ADF is working on just to give my audience a taste of what you guys are up to?
Yeah, thanks, Eric.
And you say, where are the heroes?
I think our clients are the heroes.
So we're representing right now pregnancy resource centers who are out there trying to provide.
They provide ultrasounds, free STI testing.
they provide diapers, car seats for women in need and in crisis.
And we've seen the studies that show when these women have these resources, they choose life.
We're able to represent these clinics that are being targeted and harassed by unjust governments.
So the attorney generals, yep.
I just want to interrupt, you know, folks, this gets very personal for me because there's all these things that matter to me.
But my wife, Suzanne, for 12 years in Manhattan, ran the crisis pregnancy center.
it's now called a veil.
They did God's work.
They helped women to choose life.
And many children exist today because of the work of a veil
and because of the work of these pregnancy centers around the country.
If you want to know the level of wickedness in our nation today,
these pregnancy centers,
they are not just not being helped by those on the left.
They're being attacked.
they are being attacked.
And so ADF is who you turn to when you're being attacked,
your pregnancy center, and you need to figure out how do we survive.
That's where we are in America,
which is why I get so animated about this.
It's mind-blowing, folks.
You need to be part of the solution and go to metaxis talk.com and to give generously today.
Please.
But you were telling us, Caleb, about the details of this case.
So what's the name of this?
this, you said, this client, what is the name of this pregnancy center that you guys at ADF are
representing right now? So just across the river in New Jersey, the attorney general there is going
after first choices pregnancy resource center. And what he's doing there, he worked with Planned
Parenthood. We have evidence. He worked with Planned Parenthood to draft these harassing documents
against the Pregnancy Resource Center saying, you have to give us all your volunteer information,
your donor information. As you're,
your wife that that ran that pregnancy risk resource center can you imagine she has to give all her
volunteers information out pregnancy her donors information out all of her her tech all the this is it's going
after over 10 years of their documents they have to spend their time doing that instead of serving women
all right i i have to interrupt again this is i mean it's amazing that i'm saying this that i that i see
this but if you read my bonhofer book this is what the nazis
did. With every year, they became more aggressive in crushing their enemies. So the SS, you know,
1933, 34, they're hanging back. But as soon as they got a little power, they began to target and crush
their enemies. That is what's happening in the United States of America today. This is, you said,
New Jersey. That's right. Okay. So imagine, folks, there's so many abortions happening in New Jersey. First
choices sets up says we want to help women. We want to help them choose life. And the government
in New Jersey says, we're going to go after you with everything we have. We're not just going to
go after you, you know, on some surface level. We're going to try to get the names of your
donors. Now, when I think of how many people I know who have given to pregnancy centers,
they want those names. Now, what are they going to do with those names? Is the FBI going to knock on
their doors. This is satanic stuff happening in our time. So what do you do? You turn to the Alliance
Defending Freedom and say, will you please help us? And it's only because you folks out there
listening right now give to the Alliance Defending Freedom that they have the ability to help
people being attacked. So Caleb Dalton, I have to say I'm amazed to hear of the vicious
aggressiveness of the leftist pro-abortion state of the government in New Jersey going to these
lengths. But keep talking because this is, we need to know what is happening. Otherwise, people will
do nothing. So please keep going. I can tell you exactly what they do with that information because
the Attorney General in Washington State did the same thing to Obria Pregnancy Resource Centers
there. And what they did with that information, they started sending subpoenas to contract
that Obrea worked with to harass them.
So they are using a totalitarian tactic to harass not only the pregnancy resource centers,
but any contractors that worked with them.
And I want to say this is the whole thing is that what they do, it might not be legal.
Now, folks, listen to this.
It might not be legal.
It might not be constitutional.
They don't care.
If they can get away with it, they do it.
And so if the alliance defending freedom didn't come in now to push back,
back legally and to force them to back off, if it's possible, they would just keep coming.
This is what happened in Colorado with Jack Phillips and the Masterpiece Cake Shop.
It's happening all across America.
They're doing whatever they can get away with.
That's the key.
Whatever they can get away with.
And the only way we can stop them is by pushing back, by going to the Alliance Defending
Freedom and saying we need to take them to court, we need to fight in the court, we need
brilliant lawyers to make it clear that this is not constitutional, that this violates their rights.
If ADF doesn't do that, they will just keep coming.
And this is, you just said it, Caleb, these are totalitarian tactics.
So this is a wake-up call for the American Church.
I keep saying this because I wrote my book letter to the American Church, and we made the
film letter to the American Church.
This is happening now.
It is happening right now.
And it's why people say, what can I do?
You can give to the Alliance Defending Freedom, Metaxus,
Talk.com is the website. So Caleb, this is disturbing. Keep going, keep spelling out what is what is
happening in this particular case with First Choices in New Jersey. So the district court there,
the judge, on his own, without even being asked, dismissed that case. And that's why we have it
brought up to the Supreme Court right now, because he said, even though you're being harassed,
you don't actually have a real First Amendment harm yet. And that is incorrect as a matter of law.
And it's an injustice. That's why we brought it up to the Supreme Court. We're asking the
court to reinstate that case and to say, no, you can't use the power of the government to harass
people that you disagree with. This is something fundamental that every American should agree with.
Ronald Reagan said, we don't pass freedom on in our bloodstream, right? We have to fight for it every
day. And that's what we're doing. We're fighting for that freedom for these resource centers,
but even for people who disagree with us, the government shouldn't have the power to come after
and harass individuals or organizations that it disagrees with. Whether you agree with,
Our clients are not.
That's fundamentally a freedom that all Americans should have, and we can't lose that.
I mean, it's so incredible.
The left in America has thrown away the rule of law.
They've thrown away the Constitution.
Now, I've got to be honest, if the right is doing this, I and those I know who love the
Constitution would object on principle, because on principle, this is wrong.
They're not even going about what they're doing fairly so that you could say, well, we have
differences of opinions.
No, they've thrown away the rulebook.
thrown away the Constitution, they do not care. And this is why if we don't fight back, it's over.
So folks, I don't know how more dramatically I can put it. This is up to us, right? This is up
to the American church in particular. You say you care about the unborn. Well, you've got to prove it.
You've got to take action. One of the ways you can do that, go to metaxis talk.com. Please help them.
They're doing God's work, but we have to help them. You have to go. If you don't go,
to Metaxistock.com, I can give you a phone number if you prefer to call. Metaxistock.com,
the banner is there. Give generously. I say anybody who can give $15,000. Now, most people can't
give $100 or give what you can. But anybody give $15,000, I will volunteer my evening,
get together and have dinner. We can figure out whatever you want to do. I just put that out there,
because one thing I can do is give of my time. But metaxis talk.com is the website. You can call 855,
3850.0596. Metaxistalk.com or dial 855-3850-0-596. I'll say it again. You can dial it now, and I beg you to do it. 855-385-0-596. God bless you as you give.
Our God-given freedoms are facing unrelenting attacks. It's a battle for truth, and the only way we win is if we stand together.
Thankfully, Alliance defending freedom has been defending our rights for 30 years and winning.
Right now, they're involved in two critical cases before the Supreme Court.
They're suing the FDA for endangering the health and safety of women and girls.
And in the second case, they're assisting the state of Idaho to defend its law protecting
the lives of women and their unborn children against the Biden administration's attempt
to override the law and force doctors to perform abortions.
Think about it.
They need your help with your best gift.
you courageously join ADF in fighting critical Supreme Court cases against government lawlessness
and help defend our cherished freedoms. Call 855-385-096 right now or go to metaxis talk.com.
Click on the ADF banner, Metaxistock.com. With your help, I pledge to raise $35,000 by March 31st for ADF.

Hey folks, it's my privilege to continue a conversation with Caleb Dalton.
He's a senior council with the Alliance Defending Freedom.
I will say it again and again and again.
Alliance Defending Freedom are heroes because they represent other heroes who have no recourse
who are being attacked by overreaching big government entities that hate our liberties.
I mean, we are in a war for our liberties.
And right now we're talking about a war that concerns not just our liberties, but the very
lives of unborn human beings.
We have to step up and help the Alliance defending freedom because without them,
it's over.
You were just saying, Caleb, that first choices in New Jersey, they've been attacked by
it's Governor Murphy, is it?
The Attorney General Placken.
The Attorney General, okay.
In New Jersey, and so you guys bring a case, and it's dismissed.
Like, basically the court says, nah, no, we don't think so.
we don't care. So you have to appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States. Is that right?
That's right. It's really unconscionable. The attorney general didn't even ask for the case to be
dismissed. The judge did it on his own. And so what we have here are resource centers who are
doing God's work, protecting, providing for women who are literally saving babies' lives,
like you said, and they're being harassed by the attorney general. So we're asking the Supreme
court to reinstate that case and allow it to go forward to prevent this harassment across the
board. This is something we're seeing all over the country. Well, listen, I have been sued. I can't
talk about that on the air. But those on the left, the secular left, they have become dramatically
aggressive. And if those who disagree with them are not aggressive in fighting them, we lose. It's no longer a
happy day where, you know, we have people advocating on this side and that side and we'll figure
it out. No, they are, they're being as radical as they can in, in stripping away what the founders
gave us in our founding documents. They are stripping them away. And when I think of the
Patriots who died, if you're listening to this program, you did not die for this country.
but patriots have died for this country and for the Constitution,
and we owe them everything to preserve what they bequeathed to us.
And it's why we partner with the Alliance Defending Freedom.
They are on the front lines battling.
So Caleb Dalton, you're telling us that this court in New Jersey dismisses the case.
And again, when you hear the details of it, you think this is pretty obvious overreach.
This is horrifying.
This is an attempt to terrorize people into silence, to get them to back away from doing what they're doing,
to threaten people who work with this pregnancy center, just to get people to say, okay, well, we'll just back off.
So you have to fight.
It's wrong.
And you're bringing this now to the Supreme Court.
So when was that decision made that you had to take this up to the Supreme Court?
It was literally just a few weeks ago that this has been such a rush kind of.
a whirlwind of litigation. We had to file an emergency petition with the Court of Appeals.
That was denied and then up to the Supreme Court. It takes a lot of resources and I just want to
say, Eric, thank you to you for doing this and for bringing attention to this because I get to come
to work every day. We represent these resource centers for free. We don't charge them anything.
They couldn't afford to pay attorney's fees for something like this because it's about freedom
that we're fighting for for all Americans. And folks, think of the corruption. Think of the corruption.
Planned Parenthood and others have a lot of money.
They make money from killing children in the womb.
They make money.
They are for profit.
And then they take that money and they, you know what,
they give to campaigns of people like the folks we're talking about in New Jersey.
They give to their campaign.
Will you play ball with us?
Will you help us to keep doing what we're doing for women's reproductive health,
which is actually killing children in the womb?
Will you help us?
And then you get the Attorney General in New Jersey.
He's willing to play ball.
He's willing to go hard to be aggressive.
The Attorney General in California, Kamala Harris, did some of the most vicious things to David Delighton.
He's been on this program.
He's advocating for women.
He's advocating for the unborn.
Kamala Harris, when she was the Attorney General, we think of her as an utterly bubble-headed, blithering fool.
And yet, she did very wicked things.
She's not merely a bubble-headed, blithering fool, although I'm sorry to say she is that.
But she's also been a force for evil, trying to crush people protecting the unborn,
doing the most aggressive things against people that you would consider them heroes if you're listening to this program.
And so it's, forgive me for stating it so bluntly, but these are wicked figures working.
hard with money supplied to them by folks like planned parenthood to crush our religious liberties
and to crush people into silence. David Delighton is just one of the great heroes in America,
one of the great pro-life heroes. Kamala Harris, as Attorney General in California,
came after him viciously, folks. You have to understand how vicious. These people are not
playing fairly. They're vicious. They want to win. We have to fight back. And so,
honestly, it's just my privilege, you know, to have an audience, Caleb, that cares about this.
That's why I speak so strongly because they understand this is for all the marbles, that if we do
not fight against this evil, it's over. It's over. We lose the ability to protect the unborn.
Even think about it. Think about pregnancy centers. They're doing this out of the goodness of
their hearts. This is nonprofit. They don't make a dime. My wife did this for 12 years. You don't
make a dime. You're doing this because it's right. And they're trying to.
to crush you for doing God's work.
So I want to say, please go to metaxistock.com.

Hey, folks, welcome back.
We are in a war for liberty and for freedom in America.
We have aggressive forces on the secular left
trying to crush dissent,
trying to crush organizations like pregnancy centers around America
that are doing God's work, making no money,
doing God's work.
And the secular left wants to crush them.
We're talking to Caleb Dalton
with the Alliance defending freedom
about this case with first choices in New Jersey.
And again, we need everybody's help.
I beg you, folks, get in the game.
Whatever you give, give what you can give.
You go to metaxis talk.com
or you can dial the number we've given,
but give what you can give.
for such a time as this, whatever you have is for God's purposes, and I want to encourage people.
I also want to say we throw this out there whenever I'm doing something like this.
One of the things that I can give is my time, which is becoming increasingly precious.
And if there's anybody out there who can give a tax-deductible gift of $15,000, I would be honored to spend the evening with you.
It can be with your family.
You can get together a group.
It can just be three of us or 20 of us, whatever you want to do.
You pick the venue and you set it up.
You pay for the dinner.
But I give my time.
I'm delighted to do that.
I've met so many heroes across America as a result of this.
And so it will be my privilege to work that out if there's anybody listening and wants to spend that kind of time with me.
I get around the country.
We could do it in New York or we could do it in your city.
But the phone number is 855-385-05.
or just go to Metaxus.org.056.96 or just go to Metaxus talk.com.
And Caleb Dalton, how long have you been with the Alliance Defending Freedom?
I've had the privilege to work here for over 11 years now on several different teams.
It's been truly an honor. I have worked for other nonprofit organizations in the world around the country.
And I know a lot of times people say, you know, we're in the fight. We need your help.
And I think one of the coolest things about working here is we're not just in the fight.
We're here to win.
At the Supreme Court, we've won 15 cases just in the last 13 years.
We have an over 80% win rate.
So we do what we do with excellence because of the people who are willing to fund and donate.
Because all of these clients, the resource centers you were talking about, we represent them for free.
So they're not getting charged a dime.
They couldn't afford to pay it.
but God has given us this mission to go out there and win,
and we try to fulfill that mission to the best of our ability.
Well, listen, I just love you guys,
and I obviously believe so strongly in what you're doing,
and I know most in my audience do as well.
So that's why I ask everybody to participate,
even if you can give a little bit, folks, just participate,
be a part of fighting.
Go to metaxis talk.com,
or you can call 855-385-0-5-9.
855-385-085-0-5-96. Caleb, what are some of the other battles that ADF is fighting right now?
The one we just talked about obviously just gets to me. It's just unbelievable how the secular left is just vicious and aggressive. I mentioned Kamala Harris.
These people are so aggressive and so vicious in trying to crush those with whom they disagree.
It's unbelievable.
But what are some of the other cases that we might discuss?
So we probably don't have time to cover them all.
We get over 6,000 requests or help every year.
So, but two cases that we have, the Supreme Court's hearing this month and next month,
we represent doctors who are challenging the FDA's approval and just reckless behavior
regarding chemical abortion drugs.
So that will be heard by the Supreme Court later this month.
We're assisting the Idaho Attorney General's Office protecting their pro-life laws.
They're in Idaho.
The federal government is actually coming after them, has sued the state of Idaho saying you can't have your pro-life laws.
You have to perform abortions.
Hang on now.
Now that's confusing because Rovi Wade was overturned.
Thanks to Donald Trump in case anybody's scoring at home.
Roe v. Wade was overturned.
So help me understand how can the federal government be going after Idaho?
does not Idaho have a right to figure this out as a state?
It absolutely does, but the federal government doesn't care what the law says.
They're inventing a new law, a new interpretation of a 30-year-old law,
the Emergency Room Act that would prohibits emergency rooms from turning away indigent clients
to campaign, right?
Every state abides by that.
The Biden administration is saying, no, we actually interpret that law now to say,
you have to provide elective abortions in your emergency rooms.
And that is a complete violation of the law.
And it flies in the face of what the Supreme Court said in Dobbs, just like you said.
So that case will be heard.
We're assisting the Attorney General's office there.
I'll be heard next month at the Supreme Court.
Okay.
So if you thought Rovi Wade was overturned and that's that, I guess we were wrong
because the secular pro-abortion left doesn't care.
And whatever they, I mean, I think the key for us to understand is
whatever they can get away with, they will do.
Anything they can get away with, they will get away with.
And so it's up to us to stop them and to say, no, that's wrong.
That's unconstitutional.
And we are going to take you to court to fight and usually we'll win.
But if we don't take them to court and fight, we lose.
And you just said it, Caleb.
ADF gets thousands of requests.
Most of them, it cannot take up.
Because,
folks, ADF does not have unlimited resources.
They don't have unlimited lawyers to fight.
So if you care about this nation,
if you care about liberty, folks,
please give to ADF.
Go to metaxis talk.com today.
Give as generously as you can give.
Because, listen, if we don't use our money for God's purposes now,
your money will be useless in a few years.
These rights are being taken away more and more and more.
There won't be a case to support.
There won't be an ADF to support at some point.
We have to understand that.
And I try to make that case in my book, letter to the American Church and in the film and everywhere I go speaking, that if you don't win now, if you don't fight now, it's over.
We have a small window of opportunity.
And I think this is why I speak with this urgency, folks, because when you look at what happened in Germany, they had a couple of years where they could fight.
They had legal recourse in 33 and 34.
That went away day by day by day.
It went away.
And I want to be real clear that's what's happening in America.
So you've got to be all in now.
If you have a penny, spend it now.
If you have energy, use it now.
The website, I'm asking as strongly as possible to pitch in.
Metaxistalk.com is the website.
You'll see the banner there.
I'm begging you, folks.
please step up, be a hero at this time.
The phone number 855-385-0-5-96,
855-385-0-596.
Caleb, thank you.
Thanks, sir, for having me. Appreciate it.
Folks, welcome back.
I'm talking with our new friends at Americans for Prosperity.
Kent Strang is my guest.
They have bought the website.
This is the headline.
They bought the website, Bidenomics.com.
I find this hilarious.
because when you go to Bidenomics.com, and I hope you do, and I hope you spread this on the internet in your social media, you will find actual facts, not gaslighting lunatic lies being pushed by the Biden administration so they can get your vote in the fall.
But the actual facts of why you feel pain at the gas pump and in the grocery line, yes, you're not alone.
Here are the facts at bidonomics.com.
So Kent Strang, what are some of the other facts that we can put out there, things that people would find at Bidonomics.com when they go to Bidomics.com?
Well, the president claims that prices are down.
Well, that's not true. Prices are up 18 percent since he took office.
Wait, you're saying the president is lying?
Wow.
He's certainly not being forward with us, right?
Why would he do that?
But actually, you're saying that he is saying the opposite of what you know to be true.
He's saying that.
Yeah, technically that's called lying.
And I think most people in my audience would say that's wrong.
But please keep going.
We mentioned before that Americans pay $11,400 more since President Biden took office.
Real wages are down, even though he claims that wages are up.
He talks about deficits.
There's two trillion more in deficit spending.
This administration and Biden's allies in Congress have spent $5.5 trillion in new spending.
Debt is at a $34 trillion.
And all the things we need to live and a lifestyle of just meaning of our gas, our groceries, our energy, everything is up across the board.
Bidenomics has been a disaster.
So tonight, when he tries to tell you about it at the State of the Union address and about how great his economy is, please take a moment.
Visit Bidenomics.com to fact check what he's saying.
Share it with your friends.
Share it online.
and we'd love to have you visit the site and learn more about it, the reality of Bidenomics.
Bidinomics.com.
But I think what, again, what's funny, Kent, is that, you know, if you want evidence of how pathetic
the Biden administration is, the very idea that they allowed Bidonomics.com to be hanging out
there open so that people who actually believe in American freedom and prosperity could go and buy
that website, it says it all.
These folks are not just evil.
They're incompetent.
And I don't know where the lines blur between evil and incompetence,
because what they're doing is harming Americans.
If you're an American, we've just heard it, and it's at bidenomics.com,
that your average family is spending $11,400 more under Joe Biden,
that much more.
It's not incremental, $11,400 more since Biden took office to stay.
in the same place. Where do you get that money from? This is what most Americans are trying to figure out.
And we know that, you know, what you're putting at Bidenomics.com, we expected it to be filled with propaganda.
But no, it was bought by people who actually believe in the truth and not lying. And so you have all of these facts there that people who are listening when you go there, you can share these facts, share the website.
What are some other metrics that we can find at Bidenomics.com?
Sure. It's going to go through normally his sayings, growing the economy from the bottom up and the middle out. We're going to dispel that. He talks about wages. We're going to dispel that. He's going to talk about energy. We're going to dispel that. So really, the website is just a fact check of Biden's rhetoric versus what is the reality that Americans are feeling. And also there are testimonials from real Americans who are struggling in this economy that you can watch. There are opportunities to take action and sign up and get more information from Americans for prosperity as well.
We tour the country holding events to hold Biden and his allies in Congress who racked up debt and inflation.
We're going to hold them accountable.
And Bidenomics is part of that effort.
I love it.
Kent Strang with Americans for Prosperity.
Thank you so much, folks.
