It's a nutritious smoothie of creamy, fresh yogurt, vanilla protein powder, and a mushy banana. For your mind? Drink it all down. And it's numby.

I wub, vanilla. I wopanella. Here comes Eric Metaxus. Welcome back, folks. In a minute, I'm talking to a friend, Aaron Brownback. She's written a book about Tim Walts. It's called Stolen Valor. I have to say it's chilling.

It is just chilling to think that there's no exaggeration. The facts on Tim Walts. The facts on Kamala Harris. I want to say again, I think I said it yesterday, Kamala Harris was at a rally and somebody shouts out, Jesus is Lord. She immediately responds. You're at the wrong rally.

Why would a politician who's asking for the vote of millions and millions and millions of Americans say that someone who believes Jesus's Lord is at the wrong rally. That's creepy to me. That is very creepy to me that someone would do that because it reveals their heart, but it also reveals a level of brazenness. Like they don't really care what they say. It doesn't even matter. Is that because they know that they're going to cheat?

Is it because they know that the news media will not cover it? I mean, when I heard this, I thought, this is one of these things. People are making it up or they're exaggerating. And then I watched several tapes of it. And I thought, this is chilling. This is a chilling moment. It's a chilling moment for every person of faith in America to think, why would somebody running for the White House be so brazen as to reject somebody who says Jesus is Lord.

Like, we don't want you here. We're not going to try to win your vote. Yeah, and the Democrats pride themselves on being sort of tolerant, kind of the big tent party, like everyone's welcomed, you know, and it seemed pretty intolerant. Well, right, we know that's a lie, but the point is we don't often see it made clear that that's a lie. It was a canary in the coal mine, I would say.

Well, it was a moment that I have to say, I think it's one of those moments that we'll be talking about it for the rest of our lives. There are these moments in history that, you know, people always refer to the caucus in the tank, which is completely, you know, how do I put it? That was all image. It was a meaningless thing. But people remember these moments from campaigns. Yeah, the other guy did that scream on stage.

The, uh, yeah, you, I don't even remember that anymore. I don't even remember his name. He was gay, I know. I just remember the scream that he was going to go all over the country. And then he ends it with this sort of a braveheart scream that came off real bad. I don't remember who that guy was, but I know that that was the sound of his career ending. Yes, yes. But this is a case where, again, we make the case.

We've talked about it in the past that you have people who hate God. You have people who hate the people of God. Many of them don't even know why. In other words, I don't know that Kamala Harris has. thought this through. But the point as a good politician, a prudent politician, would never reveal this kind of stuff. She revealed it. And this is not the first time. I mean, there were things, I think I mentioned this yesterday. There was a video of a musical performance at her rally. It was so sexual that it was shocking. I said, this is at a political rally for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.

It was so vulgar. It was nasty. I thought to myself, wow, are there kids at this rally? Why would you do this? And it's like there's just spinning in the face of the American public. They don't care. But then crazier than this is that there are people who think of themselves as Christians who think like, well, I don't need to vote.

or they think, well, I'll vote for her. And I just think that there's just no doubt you have to be ignorant. You have to be somebody who you really shouldn't be voting because you have no idea for whom you're voting, for what you're voting. It really is like you need to understand what's at stake. You need to care about America and have some sense of civics and some sense of what's going on to vote. Because to vote for her after all of this.

Now, the good news is maybe her screaming, you're at the wrong rally to the person who says Jesus is Lord, that might wake some people up. Maybe some people, maybe David French, and I'm not kidding, maybe he understands now, okay, you know what, I don't like Trump, I hate Trump, but, but, you know, Trump is not running against, I don't know, he's running against somebody who said that and I identify as a Christian. And so I, yeah, I mean, maybe the thing that'll be more clear for him is if next time it happens to Kamala's eyes sort of roll back and her head turns around 360 degrees and say, you're not welcome. And a snake and a snake leaps from her mouth. Yeah, maybe that would be more.

I mean, honestly, that's where we are. And I think, I've said this many times, I think it's God's mercy to this country that things like this are happening and getting out. Because I think that there's some people finally understanding, oh, you know what? okay, I guess I must have missed something. I mean, I think I said this yesterday. Gretchen Whitmer, the governor of Michigan, mocked Catholics and communion. Mocked in a video is mocking Catholics and mocking communion. And I have to say, wow, even if you don't like Catholics, even if you're not a Christian, to mock this,

it's a level of brazenness, folks. It's spiritually very, very dark. But this is where we are. And I think seeing it to put a positive spin on it, this is God's mercy so we can see what we're dealing with. Because there are many people who think of themselves as Christians who they've not been aware. They've not been aware. I don't know where they go to church or what's going on, why they're not aware. But it makes it hard not to be aware when this kind of stuff comes out.

And I think that's a very, very good thing. I think it's a very, very good thing. I spoke in the, I guess, at the beginning of the show today about the left-wing media, the progressive media is they're putting out all these articles against me, against a Bonhofer. Like, it's just crazy stuff. And in it, they're talking about that I am, listen to this, that I'm inciting political violence when I'm talking about Bonhofer.

This is, they're not making this. I'm not making this up. They've written about this that I'm inciting political violence. Now look, they must actually believe this, but they're lunatics. These are like pro-Palestinian, anti-Israel progressive lunatics. And one of the things they're worried about is Project 2025. They mentioned this in their fear-mongering lunatic letters. that they wrote and that the progressive media is writing about. Project 2025 is from the Heritage

Foundation. I am indeed a fan of Project 2025. To find out about it, go to 25threathtoncom. That's 25truth.com. That's Project 2025. To find out what the progressive lunatics are scared about.

perhaps from public schools, which are indoctrinating kids with Marxist sexual lunacy. It's, you know, this is important, right?

Today I have a friend on who has written an unfortunately very, very important book. I wish it weren't important, but it's important because we are facing genuinely the most important election of our lifetimes. Even that's an understatement. This is an existential crisis. Most people in America are too ignorant, shame on them to understand what is at stake. That's the horror. That's why it is possible. that a Marxist lunatic, utterly unqualified, like Kamala Harris, could conceivably be elected.

So this is just very important. And I'm thrilled to have on my friend Aaron Brownback, who has written a book about Kamala Harris' vice presidential candidate. Tampon Tim is what they call him with good reason. But sometimes when we make light of things, it, it, it, It dulls the edge of how important this is. He's not just a preposterous figure. He is someone who is guilty of some terrible things,

and Aaron Brownback has written about them in this book, Stolen Valor. Stolen Valor is the title. Aaron Brownback, welcome. Eric, thanks for having me. I can't really say enough about how important this election is and what is at stake. and in your book, you make clear that this is not just, oh, we don't like him or, oh, he's a little this or a little that. They're very, very serious allegations.

And it's kind of amazing that the mainstream media refuses to talk about what is fact. So what are the things in this book, Stolen Valor, about this man who could be president of the United States, one heartbeat away? Absolutely. I think everybody needs to remember that the vice presidential candidate is potentially the future leader of our country. And with Tim Walls, something that we have seen throughout his military and political career is that there is this pattern of calculated deception. And that may not seem on the surface like a big deal because Tim Walls has that Ashucks,

Minnesota, really wolf in sheep's clothing kind of persona. But it is a big deal. So in our book Stolen Valor, we were approached by Post Hill Press, who had written the book about John Kerry, 20 years ago, you might remember the Swift Boat captains, came forward and said, John Kerry is lying about his military career. And this is not okay. And they wrote a book with Post Hill Press, and they torpedoed his entire campaign with that book. Well, when we started this book, Stolen Valor, my co-author and I saw that there were three major lies just in the military side, let alone all of the public policy side, there were three major lies that Tim Walls was telling.

First, he abandoned his men when he knew that they were about to be deployed, and he has made it seem like he did not know that they were being called up to war. But for 24 years, he took a paycheck from the American people to be ready when he was called. And when he was called, he quit. And then when he quit, the second thing that he did was he kept using a rank that he had not earned. Because when he quit, he was demoted. So he has continued to say that he is a retired command sergeant major.

He has allowed other people to say that. And that, Eric, that is actually an act of stolen valor. You cannot claim a military rank or honor that you have not earned. And if that were prosecuted, that can be fined. That can cause imprisonment. It is a very, very serious allegation. And then, in addition, he has created this persona of being this battle-hardened veteran who carried weapons of war in Iraq.

And, you know, recently, he has been being called out more and more on his strategic deceptions. The media is getting wise to this. Even some of the liberal media is asking him about this. And he says, oh, I just speak from the heart. I'm just honest. I just in the moment. But the truth is, Eric, he is calculatedly deceiving the American people about his military career. and a whole lot more.

It's hard to take in these facts, but then much worse, the fact that the mainstream media ignores them as though they're not important or as though because, you know, people who might vote for Trump are bringing them up, they need to be dismissed. So the media is not doing its job, which is why on this program we try to talk about these things to let people know. And folks, listen, you don't need to love Trump. You don't need to like me. But these are facts.

These are disturbing facts about a man who could be the president of the United States. We need to take this very seriously. We need to take seriously that Kamala Harris chose him. Out of anybody in the United States, she might have chosen, she chose him. And he presents a very disturbing figure. We've only touched on a couple of things. But the idea that you would misrepresent your rank, it's almost unbelievable. Why would somebody do a thing like that, something that is easily checked?

It's obvious that he's lying to benefit himself, to make himself seem more important than he was. But what an ugly thing? It's like impersonating a police officer. Why would you do that? And I have to ask you, Aaron, why do you think he would do that? I mean, he did this over and over and over again. It's not possible that he didn't know that he was lying. What do you suppose, and I know I'm asking you to speculate, but try to understand,

I'm always curious to try to understand why somebody would do something. It's just amazing to me. Yeah, well, if you look throughout all of Tim Walz's career, you can see lie after lie after lie. There are all of these military lies. He's lied about coaching. He actually was fired from his coaching position. because he got a DUI. He then was an unpaid volunteer on a team that succeeded. He said he led this

team to this national championship. He did not. He's lied about being in Tiananmen Square at the time of the murders there. He has lied over and over and over. And it seems like it's something that he feels very comfortable with the idea that he can get away with. Also, if you look at what really motivates Tim Wals. So many people have heard about his tremendous connections with China. And you can see Marxism is a foundation throughout all of his policies. You know, you mentioned Kamala chose him as a running mate. And that's a very interesting question as to why she would choose someone who doesn't really help balance out her ticket. Well, instead, she chose her dream, candidate, her dream partner who is as extreme or more extreme in Marxism than she is.

And in the Marxist ideology, truth is just not that important. What is important is that people are loyal to the state. And so if you start going through Tim Walz's policies, you can see how he has worked to lay Marxism as a foundation in Minnesota in the ways that he would in America. So for instance, Tim Walz, while he comes across as this aw shucks Minnesotan, who might have fooled even some of your listeners, Eric, who I know are pretty smart, but they might listen to him and think, ah, he seems like a good guy. Well, let me just tell you, he is a champion of the sexualization of children.

He is all about creating sexual confusion in children to break down traditional family values and sexual norms because that is a key to spreading Marxism. It's important that in Marxism, people's loyalty is to the state. And as you know, I know you know this, Eric, the two things that get in the way of that the most are the church and the family. And so Tim Walls has an agenda of breaking down those two areas. You can see it in his laws around abortion. And he has been one of the most pro-abortion politicians we have ever had. Nancy Pelosi told him that he was so pro-abortion. He needed to settle down a little bit about that. He's created laws in his state that allow a 10-year-old any age, 10-year-old girl can show up. pregnant, have cash in hand, get an abortion be turned back out on the street to whoever it is that brought her, and he has made it illegal for his law enforcement officers to investigate abortions done on minor children. He has worked to break down the family structure from every possible angle that he could because Marxism is his ultimate agenda. Where can people get a copy

of the book Stolen Valor? Absolutely. So you can look for Stolen Valor. online. You can look for it on Amazon, on Barnes & Noble, Google it. I hope that people will understand that you've done research. This is not just, you know, stuff that you think. You can prove this. This is all true. The book is stolen valor. Aaron Brownback is the co-author. Folks, it's very important. I hope you'll take this seriously. And I hope that if you're going to a church that's looking the other way as evil rises in America, I hope you will stop going to that church and stop giving God's money to that church.

We're in an existential crisis. What we're up against is very ugly. We'll be right back. Hey folks, we're officially in that time of the year where eating becomes way off-balanced.

Folks, before I continue my conversation with Aaron Brownback on the book Stolen Valor about Tim Walts, I want to remind you of our friends at the Tunnels to Tower Foundation, Tunnel to Towers Foundation. Here's a story. Christopher Chambers enlisted in the U.S. Navy later graduated seal training while conducting a nighttime raid on a ship illegally transporting aid from Iran to Houthi forces in Yemen. Christopher was reported missing.

In the eight-foot swells that night, he and another service member lost their lives. He was 37 years old and left behind a wife and a young daughter. The Tunnel to Towers Foundation provided his family with a mortgage-free home. The Foundation honors the legacy of those who've made the ultimate sacrifice or are catastrophically injured while serving our country and our communities. They're also working to eradicate homelessness among veterans by providing housing assistance and services to those in need.

That's T, the number two, t, dot org.

Okay, I'm talking to Aaron Brownback. The book is stolen valor. Aaron, again, the allegations against Tim Walts allegations, these are true. We know they're true. The media is ignoring them, but we're talking about them now. And again, what we're talking about is a man essentially committed. it's hard for us to get our heads around it in America, committed to Marxism, atheist Marxism, to values that are genuinely antithetical to American values, not different from your values or my

values, but antithetical to American values, as we've understood American values for 250 years. That's disturbing. So I want to talk about his ties to China, which is our enemy, and which is a communist BMoth, which would happily or is already working. to undermine America. He seems to be dedicated to China somehow. Talk about that. He is, definitely.

So as many people know, Tim Walz has traveled to China over 30 times. And he started when he was a young man and a National Guardsman officer. And one of the things that the Chinese government does is it works to groom foreign military officers to help spread their ideology to the world. It's clear that they have done this with walls. You can see it detailed in the book how they have followed his every move throughout his career. They know where he was on specific dates and what he was doing. That is something that the government, the Chinese communist government has worked very hard to do. You can see it then continue throughout his career. He invited a Chinese communist government. He invited Chinese,

Chinese government officials to come to his gubernatorial inauguration. And every so often, you'll hear him say something where you're like, oh, it sounds like maybe he's not really for China. He did that in his debate with J.D. Vance. He said, oh, if Trump went over on one of those trips with me to China, which by the way, he took students to China and that was paid for by the Chinese Communist Party. So these are things that he was doing in conjunction. with them. But he said if if Trump went over on one of these trips, he wouldn't have praised Xi for his handling of COVID. Well, there's actually, Eric, that's fascinating. There is a term in China that is called Big Help with a Little Badmouth. And that term means it's okay for you to say something

that maybe distances yourself a little bit from us as long as when the rubber meets the road, you are actually doing major things to help us. And that is exactly what we see with Walls and his relationship with China. So most states are lessening their investments in China, decreasing them altogether. Minnesota just keeps increasing and increasing its investments with China. You hear Walls speak so negatively about the police force in Minnesota. Following during COVID, I mean, he treated the police. police terribly. And we spell this out during the George Floyd race riots. He was horrible to them.

We spell it all out in stolen valor. But did you know that a human rights group out of Spain did research on where there are Chinese secret police stations located around the world? And there is one in Minnesota that harasses Chinese dissidents that abducts them. That's what we understand to be the case and Walsh has done nothing about it. He's said nothing negative and he has taken no steps. And so I think when we are looking at Marxism and people wanting to spread Marxism, it kind of feels almost like, is that, like you said, is that possibly true? But what people need to understand is that Marxism has been very difficult to spread in America. And the reason is Marxism, Marxism, at its core is about class warfare, the working class overthrowing the bourgeois Z or the upper class.

And in America, we have a very large middle class, and that makes it very difficult for Marxism to take hold. So what Marxist theorists have done in America is they have overlaid critical race theory on top of Marxism and tried to create this class warfare of racial classes. And you see that throughout. In our book Stolen Valor, you can see throughout the George Floyd race riots. That's exactly what Tim Walls was working to create. And Kamala Harris also was encouraging during that time. She said these riots won't stop.

They should not stop. She raised funds to get the rioters on bail. So what we're seeing is people who really genuinely are committed to the idea. to the idea of Marxism and spreading that in America. There's no doubt about it. Forgive me going to a break. Folks, I have to tell you, there are many Christians who are dumb enough not to vote in this election.

I beg you to tell your friends, if they have any kind of faith, how serious this is. We'll be right back.

If you want more information, 86688 Bible, it's just $99 a month. 866-88 Bible. Check it out. I'm talking to my friend Aaron Brownback. about this book, Stolen Valor. This is disturbing, folks.

This is true what we're talking about, right? This is, we're talking about Tim Walts, who wants to be the vice president of the United States. He's as radical as it gets. Kamala Harris is as radical as it gets. These are not moderate. These are not wise choices on any level. But there's so many people who simply don't know this or they're looking the other way.

It's our job to tell them. So, Aaron, what else should we say? about this outlier, this kind of globalist, Marxist, pro-China maniac. I mean, he's not just pro-China. He's pro-communist China. He's pushing, I mean, the reason that President Trump mocks him as tampon Tim is because this is the man who pushed to have, this is so sick you think we're making it up, to put tampon machines, dispensers, in boys' bathrooms, in public schools.

This is just so sick, so insane. He has done this. I mean, just imagine that this man has actually done this. We're not making it up. No, and starting in fourth grade. So you might not know that, that that's how young they have to be. I want to be clear. The reason this is offensive is you want to confuse kids.

You want to mess with kids' minds. You want to disturb children. They're there to learn. And you're imposing this weird stuff on them. it's demonic folks it's demonic it is absolutely evil and parents should be up in arms over this that's who tim waltz is that's who kamala harris is it's wicked uh when you go after kids i think that's when people begin to wake up but a lot of people simply don't know about this so i'm sorry to interrupt keep going erin no you're absolutely right and it's not just the kids of minnesota it is all the

kids all the kids in the nation so tim wiles has made minnesota a trans refuge state And what that means is any child of any age can be brought to Minnesota and be chemically and surgically altered to appear as the opposite sex. They do not need a parent's permission. They can have anyone with them who, according to the laws that Tim Walls has signed, is acting as a parent. And if the parent stands in the way and tries to stop these chemical and surgical alterations of their child, this state will take, custody from the parents until those alterations are done. And then they will turn the child back to the parents. And what's more than that? You know, Eric, a lot of people think that it's just too outlandish. It can't be possible. But what is coming is a wave of pedophilia. And Tim Walls has been an advocate for

this in Minnesota. So we've seen the wave of homosexuality. We've seen that targeting children. We've seen the transing of children. That was the next, the next big wave. Now we are seeing the wave of pedophilia. Tim Walz, in his state, has signed into law that pedophilia is a protected class. So that means if you're hiring someone to work in your daycare and you know that they are sexually attracted to children, you cannot not give them that job for that reason, or it is, against the law on your part. If there is a man who teaches second grade and he talks about his sexual attraction to

children, he cannot be fired for that. It is against the law under Tim Walz's laws to do that. A lot of people say, it's just crazy. It's absolutely mind blowing. If parents aren't mad as hell to hear this kind of thing, I don't know what kind of parent. I don't know what actual parent would not be sick to hear this happening in America right now. It's true. And you have to ask, so why would Kamala choose somebody who was more extreme than her? The conventional wisdom says you pick a running mate who balances out your ticket, right? If you're older, you pick someone younger. If you're more liberal, you pick someone moderate. If you need geography, you pick a battleground state. Well, Kamala did not do that in any of those areas with Tim Walz. She picked her dreamiest dream candidate Marxist partner.

And, you know, the reason, and we spell this out in the book, the reason appears to be that the Democrats don't feel as though they need to win hearts and minds. They think that this is an operational contest of harvesting ballots and that they are superior in that contest and that that's all they have to do. So it's incredibly important for people to not only vote, but even if you are not a fan of early voting and these 45-day voting periods, you need to get your vote. in as soon as possible, and then the laws can change over time. But don't let their operational superiority in this ballot harvesting contest cause you to not have your vote count. Again, it's just amazing that we're talking about Marxism coming to America. It is here. Marxism is the enemy. Folks, you got to understand what it is. It's the enemy of the family. It's the enemy of your family.

It's the enemy of every family. It is against the family. It is against God. It is against the church. This is real. This is something we could talk about, you know, 20 years ago, we could mention it. It is here. I personally did not see this coming.

The fact that it's here now is just mind-blowing. Aaron, just 30 seconds left. Final thoughts. Yeah, this is serious. This is somebody who is potentially going to be one heartbeat away from the president of the United States, guiding the president if he is the vice president. And it is very important that everybody take action before it's too late. Yeah, folks, you got to vote. Please get a copy of Stolen Valor so you know the facts and you

can write about them on your social media posts. Aaron Brownback, thank you so much. Thanks, Eric. Hey, folks, before we continue, I got to say, Chris, we were talking earlier about this, but I find it funny that like the ultra left immediately hated my Bonhoeffer book when it came out. And you realize that these are bitter, usually bitter academics, very, very progressive, usually agnostics, like the Bonhoeffer academicians, you know, these people that spent their, career on Bonhofer. They write books that nobody reads, basically, right? That it's very intellectual. It's impossible to read. And they were bitter because my book was selling, you know. And I just think, how crazy, right? You think that they would be grateful that somebody has, you know, gotten everybody excited about Bonhofer, but instead they feel obliged to denounce it as like right wing

propaganda, whatever it is. And you kind of have to laugh. Like, it's so, Crazy. The article to read about a little bit on Twitter that was posted. And the first picture that came up, the individual may or may not have been wearing a nose ring. And I feel like I could smell the patchouly from the pitch. But yeah. But look, no, it's just tribalists. They're tribalists.

They're just kind of like, you know, it's kind of like the Orange Man bad logic. Like, there's no logic. It's just a lot of emotion and stuff. And I think that they're, anyway, it's, it's just madness. I am so excited about the film that is coming out. And folks, I know we've shared it before, but Angel Studios, oh, I think, yeah, like the progressive left lunatics, they're upset because the distributor of the film is Angel Studios. They see Angel Studios as, you know, I don't know, it's just unbelievable. It's so funny to me.

It's so funny to me. If you, folks, this is just where we are in America. I think you have to ignore it. You have to laugh and you have to move on. Yeah, they made the Chosen series.

It's literally just like the New Testament. That's very tribal. Yeah, that's offensive to the progressive left. Well, look, they're atheist, you know, Marxist, secular.

It's the standard crowd. But it's, anyway, I want to mention again, in case anybody missed it, angel.com slash Eric. They're offering discounted tickets to the film. I keep saying the film needs to open very big on November 22nd. That's when it comes out.

And I'm asking you folks, please, seriously, please, buy tickets early, angel.com slash Eric. These are discounted tickets. If you can afford it, buy out a theater. senior youth group. This is a family film. This is a film to see with the whole family. And as Keith Junta has said, and many others have said, I mean, so many who saw it,

it's a beautiful film. I mean, it is a beautiful, beautiful film. The guy who wrote the screenplay who directed it, you know, he and I are not on the same page politically or whatever. I don't care. He made a great Bonhofer film, and people need to know. This is a great Bonhofer film for everybody, for every American. So don't listen to any nonsense, you know.

It's a historical drama. It's a biography. It's not like, you know, he doesn't throw a MAGA hat on in the third act. But I mean, it's so funny because it's such a great film that you just have to be nuts to like attack it or to attack. People, listen, people are nuts.
