Well, this video is going to be all about moral clarity because crazy enough, right-wing, alt-right, racist, white nationalist, white supremacist, Nick Fuentes has more moral authority around the death of Charlie Kirk than the president of the United States, Donald Trump. And I'm going to show you why in just a moment, what he said, I can't believe what he said. I cannot believe it. But I was kind of trying to play out. Like, how do I want to, like, order this video for you? But I started to watch this video, which has gone viral, this pastor. And if this video is about moral clarity and moral authority, I thought to myself, what better person to talk about this in a way that I don't think anyone really is?

I think Democrats are too scared to talk about this, at least, let's say elected officials. on the left are too afraid to talk about Charlie Kirk's death the way that we should. And the right is obviously saying we need to go to war and pretend like Charlie Kirk was MLK or the next coming of Christ. So what better person than a pastor to talk about this? Now, I have not watched all this. I started watching it. And within 10 seconds, I was like, holy shit.

This is going to be very good. So if you haven't seen it, we can watch together. And I think it's going to be great. So let us watch right now, shall we? And then we'll get into the other stuff with Nick Fuentes and Donald Trump. But right now, a pallet cleanser. Charlie Kirk did not deserve to be assassinated. I'm overwhelmed.

Seeing the flags of the United States of America at half staff calling this nation to honor and venerate a man who was racist and spent all of his life sowing seeds of division and hate into this land and he there's two more minutes here people with selective rage who were mad about charlie kirk but didn't give a damn about Melissa Hortman and her husband when they were shot down in their home. Have compassion for the death of a man who had no respect for my own life. I am sorry, but there's nowhere in Bible. Honor evil.

Oh, my God. And how you die does not redeem how you lived. Come a hero in your death when you are a weapon of the enemy in your life. Can abhor the violence that took your life. I don't have to celebrate how you chose to live. Damn. I... Me too.

Holy shit. I don't have to... What do you say? I don't have to venerate the way you die, but I don't have to celebrate... I can abhor the violence that took your life. I can abhor the violence to take your life. But I don't have to celebrate. But I don't have to celebrate.

celebrate how you chose to live how you chose to live chose that was amazing now of course the right is freaking out about it but let's us what is his name pastor howard john wesley this guy's like he's defaming charlie kirk and dragging his good name through the mud no he's just kind of telling the truth. Anyways, that is a man of God, in my opinion. That is a man of God. That's what the Bible says. That is what the Bible says. Okay. I'm not a, I'm not a pastor. He is. And I'm going to go with him. He's closer to God than I am. All right. So let's talk about this, because I think through everything, everything has been, there's been so much going on that we've overlooked a lot. but Donald Trump so if you don't know they held there's they held a vigil at Kennedy's center

and a lot of MAGA influencers and folks in the administration went um RFK went and he's he said this I met Charlie for the first time in July of 2001 I went on his podcast there's one problem as it says here In 2001, Charlie was eight, and podcasts didn't even exist, or they did exist. They weren't like they are now. Regardless, he was eight. He was eight. So that didn't happen. That was a lie.

Strange lie, didn't happen. What else didn't happen? Well, Donald Trump just didn't go to this vigil. He didn't go. He instead was golfing. He was golfing. The president spent the weekend at his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey, according to his White House press schedule.

Trump's Sunday schedule for Sunday included no public events. He returned to White House at 6.30 p.m. And he could have went to the Kennedy Center, but he just chose not to. He chose not to. Well, this is what I'm talking about, is that the person who actually, like, we're having a, we have a pastor speaking about what's happening with moral authority

And then we have this white supremacist, white nationalist. Now, I think he's being opportunistic. I think he's doing this because he is driving a wedge between the far right and Trump. I think that's what he's trying to do here. But he's also kind of telling the truth. Where is the leadership? Where's the messaging? Where's the information?

Where is the whole of government effort to get to the bottom of this? Keep the American public apprised to deter. future attacks, and to ensure that this will not happen again. Where is it? And shame on all of the Trump shills for not calling this out. They will praise anything. The Cracker Barrel logo, the Department of War, the Gulf of America. And honestly, I was, and I'm not just trying to politicize this, but I was genuinely disqualify. disturbed by Trump's reaction to Charlie Kirk's death. Isn't this...

All right, let me show you that reaction to Charlie Kirk's death, just in case you missed it, because here it is. Here it is. Here's Donald Trump asked about... The reporter says, my condolences about Charlie Kirk, how are you holding up? And his response is truly insane. So this is the day after Charlie passed, and Donald Trump said, I'm doing okay. Anyway, let's talk about the ballroom. So that's what makes her referring to here.

Your friend? They asked him about it the day after, and he said, yeah, yeah, anyway, so we're building the new East Wing. Are you serious? You got shot. This is your 31-year-old friend who supported you for years. You know him by name. Your son is friends with him.

He could. It doesn't seem like he could be bothered. He didn't go to the memorial. He's golfing. He's dancing at a sports outing. He said he got the news about Charlie Kirk. Oh, and I was in the middle of building the beautiful new ballroom. Really, man?

What a disaster. It is truly a disaster when someone like him is actually telling the truth. But that's the thing about folks when they're so removed from the establishment, whether it's on the left or the right, they don't have to be extreme. But when they're so removed, they actually can tell them. the truth because they're not worried about access. It's a superpower. It's something I think about a lot here is I don't want to get too close to anyone because

I want to be able to tell you the truth. But thank you for watching. If you like this video, please hit like in the video. If you're not subscribed, please consider subscribing and I'll see you next time. Bye.
