The following program is made possible by the faithful prayers and financial support of listeners just like you. To find out how you can help, visit www.truenews.com. Welcome to True News. I'm Edward Zoll. Today is an action-packed show. Not only has China threatened immediate war over a rumor, a deleted rumor at that from a Texas senator that 30,000 U.S. troops have been moved to Taiwan. We're also going to discuss a Biden administration initiative to move the booster shots into the brand new vaccination policy. Five boosters, seven boosters or boosters for the rest of your life. We have this and more and a special response to Mike Lindell.

But first, here is Kerry Kinsey with today's True News Headlines. Welcome to True News Headlines. I'm Kerry Kinsey. Business Insider says the DOD could be planning to make room for 30,000 Afghan refugees at U.S. Army garrisons like Fort Bliss in Texas and Fort McCoy in Wisconsin. That according to documents obtained by Fox News. But what about the others that are left behind? Breitbart reporting that between 10 and 40,000 American citizens are still in Afghanistan. CNN's Clarissa Ward probes Pentagon Press Secretary John Kirby. Well, I just wanted to ask you, because obviously I'm the one who's here on the

ground talking to Afghans every day who works with the U.S. military, who works with the U.S. embassy, who works with American NGOs or journalistic organizations. I'm the one who has to look them in the eye. Can I offer them your assurance that everyone who has worked with American organizations will be got out of this country safely. I would ask you to tell them that there is a process that that they can apply for through the State Department to get onto the list and get onto the manifest. And I would ask them to to work with State Department authorities there in Kabul to do that. The Sun.com says the Taliban is now the world's most heavily armed terror group. This after they seized a mother load of U.S a line of Humvees. Their arsenal grows as they get new toys abandoned by the surrendering Afghans.

We're talking about M-16s and M-4 rifles, even Apache helicopters, all part of $83 billion spent trying to prop up the Afghan armed forces. For information on this story and more, visit our companion site. It's called newscoup.com. Fox News says former CIA analyst and MSNBC guest Matt Zeller criticized President Biden's speech on Afghanistan on Monday. The libs at the network did not want to hear this. So I'm curious to hear your reaction of this consequential speech by the American president. Didn't run from it. He owned it. He owned his decision. He owned the fact that, as he put it, the buck stops with him. I hope he gets to own

their deaths, too. I don't I feel like I watched a different speech than the rest of you guys. I was appalled. There was such a profound, bold faced lie in that speech. The idea that we plan for every contingency. I have been personally trying to tell this administration since it took office. I've been trying to tell our government for years that this was coming. We sent them plan after plan on how to evacuate these people. Nobody listened to us. They didn't plan for the evacuation of our Afghan wartime allies. They're trying to conduct it now at the 11th hour. The Guardian, among many outlets showing this image of hundreds of Afghans packed in a U.S. military cargo plane in a desperate attempt to flee Kabul

after the fall of the capital to the Taliban. The picture shows 640 people crammed into a C-17 Globemaster III. That's among the highest number of people ever carried in such an aircraft. Western Journal says a new poll claims that almost 70 percent of Americans disapprove of President Biden's handling of the crisis in Afghanistan. The poll was conducted by the Trafalgar Group. Fifty nine percent strongly disapprove of how Mr. Biden handled things. That's a look at True News headlines.

Thank you for watching. I'm Rick Wiles. Last week, our True News team of Edward Zoll and Lauren Winsky, along with a freelance videographer and his wife, attended Mr. Mike Lindell's cyber symposium in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, to hear Mr. Lindell and his assembled guests present evidence of alleged election fraud. True News provided three days of continuous live streaming from the event, a feat that Mr. Lindell's IT team could not pull off, nor right-side broadcasting. None of them could keep their Internet stream online. Nevertheless, our team gave Mr. Lindell the respect we thought he deserved

to present the evidence he has repeatedly told the American public he possesses that will prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the 2020 presidential election was stolen from President Donald Trump. During our team's three days of reporting, we refrained from commenting on the evidence, or should I say the lack of evidence, that Mr. Lindell presented in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Edward and Lauren also conducted 18 interviews of conference speakers. It was in one of those interviews that a member of Mr. Lindell's team admitted to Edward Zoll on camera that the 37 terabytes of data in Mr. Lindell's possession is corrupted, meaning it is useless in a court of law as evidence. On Friday, August 13,

Doc Burkhardt and I commented on True News about the lack of evidence at Mr. Lindell's event. We also mentioned that we were troubled by Mr. Lindell hiring Alan Dershowitz, the former attorney for mass pedophile and Israeli Mossad agent Jeffrey Epstein. On Monday, August 16, Mr. Lindell appeared as a guest on Steve Bannon's video podcast. Later, he appeared on his own video podcast on his frank speech platform. He made some astounding, defamatory accusations against True News. He specifically named True News. Mr. Lindell said that True News was a product of Media Matters, a left-wing organization that is partially funded by billionaire George Soros. Mr. Lindell also accused True News of secretly working with Antifa, a radical network of domestic terrorists.

He accused True News of providing media credentials to Antifa agents to allow them to enter his meeting. And to add insult to injury, Mr. Lindell described True News as a fake news website. Yes, he said that the organization that he credentialed to cover his event, the organization that provided continuous video streaming for three days, the organization that interviewed 18 of his speakers, Mr. Lindell said that organization is fake news. Well, Mr. Lindell did not stop there. He went on Brandon House's video podcast and repeated the defamatory accusations. He told Mr. House that True News is a cover for Antifa and that information was provided to him by one of his attorneys. Could that lawyer be hardcore Zionist Alan Dershowitz,

the lawyer who kept Jeffrey Epstein out of prison for life? Here's a video clip from that interview. Whoever was marking at the door, they had credentials to come in. Now, where they got them and what they came in and who was Antifa, that's a whole other investigation. I was hoping to get that before I went on air here. Just to clarify to the audience. I want to say this. It was true news. There's a place called True News.

They're a cover. They're not real news. They're a cover for Antifa. I just got here from one of my lawyers. And we just want to make sure we're clarifying this. There is another organization that's been around for years, I think out of Florida with that name, not to be confused with this group. Yeah, I don't know about that. All I know is that that group should worry about this group because this group is exactly that name. He also went back on his frank speech platform

and told his followers that his team of investigators are gathering evidence on true news and that he would present the evidence today at 11 a.m. Central. Well, the deadline came and went and there was no evidence. Very similar to the pattern of big promises Mr. Lindell has made about possessing evidence to prove election fraud. Mr. Lindell's wild accusations against True News are reckless and defamatory. His team is feeding him inaccurate information about us. We are demanding that Mr. Lindell immediately retract his accusations and apologize to True News. This is our last request from Mike Lindell to do the right thing. Admit he made a terrible mistake, retract his defamatory accusations, and publicly apologize to True News. One more thing, Mr. Lindell,

your public apology should come with a $1 million check, a donation to True News, to compensate for the damage you have done to us with your wild, reckless accusations. So Edward, Doc, Lauren, this is a strange, this is really one of the weirdest, strangest things that's happened in a long, long time. Right. Yesterday, it was kind of silly. I thought, okay, this, I don't know what Michael Lindell's doing. It'll go away. He'll come back and say, oh, hey, I made a big mistake. But he didn't. He doubled down.

He tripled down. He tripled down. He quadrupled down. He went on multiple programs. We only mentioned a couple. He went on multiple programs. He was on Steve Bannon's program. That was where we first caught it.

And he even said there were sheriffs working with him, and he had private investigators. And his team was going to, you know, they had video. He had video of us helping Antifa get into his meeting. Right. Okay. So it went from being funny to then being weird, and then it became... Persistent. Well, it became defamatory because we started getting a very negative blowback from Mr. Lindell's supporters turning against us and agreeing with him, in fact, Edward, you had a very unfortunate situation today with a

a Colorado County official who was scheduled to appear on True News today and canceled the interview because she believed what Mike Lindell said about us. Yes, I was in contact with her team. This is Tina Peters. This is the Mesa County clerk, the one whose office was raided before attending Mike Lindell's office. I was in discussion with them to schedule it, to bring her on. It was actually going to be her assistant, Ms. Bishop, Ms. Sharona Bishop. They had a very pointed message sent to me at 12.55 p.m. as you can see here.

We've blurred out the curse word. They sent me a word I didn't have a father and said, you guys are part of the enemy and I've told Sharona. Now I've followed up and asked directly, have you made this decision? Have you made this accusation against me, this curse word you used there because of Mike Lindell's accusations. I don't want to assume anything, but this is an odd timing. After Mike Lindell used our name, said that we were working with Antifa, we lose an interview with someone related to election audit. There's been other fallout.

People are commenting on social media. We're getting emails. And people are baffled by it. Anybody who watched True News for those three days know that we gave him fair coverage. I even defended him and said, maybe I don't understand because it's so cyber tech, you know, high IQ people running this. I was like, maybe I just don't understand. You know, I thought, you know, I've been a huge fan of Mike Lindell. You know, he's a recovering addict, God-fearing Christian, Jesus-loving Christian.

He was somebody I looked up to. And there's nothing, no worse feeling than being disavowed and slandered by somebody that you looked up to. It's very disappointing. Well, I'm going to assume that Mr. Lindell is a born-again believer in Jesus Christ and that he's a devout Christian, then he should know that false witness, bearing false witness, is in the big top 10 sins. And what he's doing is that he's bearing false witness against true news, and he's making wild, reckless accusations, which now helps me understand why other organizations are suing him. It now becomes very obvious because if he can say something as wild and crazy as,

and True News is working for Antifa, that we're funded by Media Matters, that we're smuggling Antifa agents into his media. I mean, if you can believe that kind of stuff, then I have to question everything else you've said. And that's that's the part of this, Rick, is that, first of all, it's a pattern. It's a pattern that basically you have to look at here. If he's making the mistake in regard to the people infiltrating his event. It's clear that he's made a mistake about other things. And on top of that, Rick, it's also true that his own lawyer is aware of the mistake.

This isn't some kind of oddity. This isn't some kind of thing that's happened in a vacuum. I have a text message sent by Mike Lindell's lawyer, Kurt Olson. This is his on-record lawyer mentioned in his articles. He's representing Mike Lindell. He has been told, right here, he's the one in the black here, maybe nothing, this is what has been shared with him, but sharing as I've been working with Jeremy at True News as well, seems to be a misunderstanding somewhere. I'll check. Kurt Olson

is writing. He is looking into this. He's going to check up on this. He's been made aware of the fact that there is a true truth out, which I don't know if that's what Mike Lindell is trying to say. But that's what has been said by others, that it might be this. And there's a true news. True news is a Christian news outlet that you are currently defaming. Mr. Lindell repeatedly said our name. He didn't just, it wasn't a slip of the tongue. It wasn't off cuff. He acted as if he was reading from a document too, several times. And he said the information was given to him by his attorneys. So which attorney? Alan Dershowitz? Which attorney? Probably. Well, that's kind of what Zionist lawyers do. They see Mike Lindell as a cash cow, but also he's a born again Christian. So they're really good at subverting and they're trying to make him seem insane.

You know, and that's why, you know, he doesn't like the fact, Dershowitz doesn't like the fact probably that we haven't given him exactly, you know, we've kind of showed the videos where he was mandatory vaccine. He kept his underwear on during the Epstein massages. You know, he is not somebody that we want in our party of representing us. And I think it's a subversion tactic to make Mike Lindell look bad. Or to make true news look bad. The attack is on us. It's not on Mike Lindell. It's on us. Okay. us, okay? But we don't know who it is. But I will tell you this. I will gladly take a polygraph here live on True News. I'll be glad to do that. And I would like Mr. Lindell's lawyers, whoever has fed him this information,

they should come here and do a polygraph with me. Let's find out who's telling the truth and who's lying. And that would make a great program. I'd watch that one. Yeah, that'll get a lot of views. True news tested. It's just weird. It's very bizarre. And again, if he just misspoke and meant to say somebody else, I could get it. But he repeatedly went on different podcasts, including his own, multiple times and said it was true news and that he had video and he was going to reveal the evidence. Well, he has not revealed the evidence because there is no evidence. And makes you now think everything he has said about the election and that he possesses evidence, you have to now think he doesn't have any evidence. I have to suspect, Rick, he doesn't

even know how to use Google or some of his devices because a simple Google search, True News Antifa, will show the years of coverage that we've had on this subject, calling Antifa a domestic terrorist organization, detailing the attacks, a domestic terrorist organization, detailing the attacks, brutal attacks. Remember in Denver, the shooting? We covered that for three days. Right. You know, after the election, when Sidney Powell and Lynn Wood were making these accusations, remember the Kraken? Sidney Powell had, she was going to bring out the Kraken, the Kraken monster. I mean, this was going to bring out the Kraken, the Kraken monster. I mean, this was going to be a slam dunk. She had the evidence. And we repeatedly invited Sidney Powell and Lynn Wood to come on True News and present the evidence.

They wouldn't talk to us. I personally spoke with Sidney Powell in Alpharetta, Georgia. We sent her to cover that rally in December in Georgia, she said no. I said who I was. Give me anything, Ms. Powell, anything. Speak to me about the evidence, something. It turned out that the evidence was as mythical as the monster she compared it to. Well, I kept an open mind until he had his cyber symposium because I thought, oh, here's a guy that's facing a $1.6 billion lawsuit. Maybe he's going to go to this.

He's going to have this event and lay it all out. And the world is going to say, oh, my, he really does have evidence. But he didn't have any evidence, which now tells me most likely he's going to lose that lawsuit. He's going to lose his corporation. He's going to lose everything because he doesn't know how to control his mouth. And it's very sad. I think he's a good guy. I think he's a decent guy.

I think he means well. But somebody is feeding him bad information information and he's not qualifying it. One of his people told you at the symposium, you were interviewing the man, and he admitted to you that the 37 terabytes of data is corrupted. Yes, those two individuals, Colonel Waldron being one, first of all said that he hadn't even seen the full data package and that it would take three months to even verify it, confirming that Mike Lindell was presenting something that was not even confirmed. This is the man that starred in the 20-minute video that was played throughout the event. And then Utah State Representative Mr. Christensen, he said,

he spoke to a red team member, which is a member of Mike Lindell's cyber team. He's paying this group hundreds of thousands of dollars. He said, look, I can give you the name of the man, but they've told me this is corrupted. Corrupted. That's the word he used. That's not bombshell. That's not cracking. That's not kill shot. That's corrupted. Yes. Some of the left-wing media, they've painted True News as saying, well, look at True News. They were there. They're big followers, supporters of Mike Lindell they're there to back him up well CNN was there eight people yeah they had eight people there

Axios was there a lot of other media were there does that mean does that mean that they were there as as admirers of Mike Lindell there to back him up and support him no they went to cover the event, just like we did. And a lot of news organizations watched True News for three days. That's the truth. Seattle Times reporter sent his own tweet. He watched it. He had hundreds of thousands of viewers. And there were a lot of newsrooms around the country who tuned into True News because Mr. Lindell couldn't get a stream out to the world. On the internet at a cyber symposium. Well, anyhow.

Rick, let me ask you a question here because this is probably going to come up. There's a lot of people who really like Mike Lindell a lot. Okay. I mean, a lot, a lot. And they would perceive this as you attacking him now. Is that the case? Why would I be attacking him? I'm not attacking him. I'm saying to Mr. Lindell, you're lying about True News. IS THAT THE CASE? WHY WOULD I BE ATTACKING HIM? I'M NOT ATTACKING HIM.

I'M SAYING TO MR. LINDELL, YOU'RE LYING ABOUT TRUE NEWS. IT'S NOT THAT YOU JUST MISSPOKE. YOU'RE LYING. YOU'RE MAKING FALSE ACCUSATIONS AGAINST A CHRISTIAN ORGANIZATION, AND ALL YOU HAD TO DO WAS CALL ME. YES.

IF I, IF MY OFFICE MANAGER SAID, MIKE LINDELL'S ON THE PHONE, I'm going to take the call. So you had to do. Yeah, it's that simple. And say, hey, Rick, some people told me you guys were working for Antifa and you're funded by Media Matters. And after I stopped laughing, I would tell him somebody playing a joke on you, Mike. OK, but he didn't. He didn't make the phone call. He went forth and made the accusations. And listen, I know some people would say, well, Rick, you're not allowed to react.

You're a Christian. You can't react. What are you talking about? I can't react. You need to read the book of the Acts of the Apostles and read Paul, what Paul did. He defended himself. He defended himself in court against false accusations READ PAUL, WHAT PAUL DID. HE DEFENDED HIMSELF. HE DEFENDED HIMSELF IN COURT AGAINST FALSE

ACCUSATIONS BY HIS DETRACTORS. FELLOW JEWS. YES, HIS FELLOW JEWS WHO LIED ABOUT HIM, REPEATEDLY LIED ABOUT HIM TO STOP HIM, TO SLOW HIM DOWN, TO GET HIM KILLED. AND EVENTUALLY THEY GOT WHAT THEY WANTED. THEY GOT HIM EXECUTED. SO, YOU KNOW, GOD DOESN'T EXPECT YOU TO JUST SIT THERE AND LET PEOPLE LIE ABOUT YOU. And eventually they got what they wanted. They got him executed. So God doesn't expect you to just sit there and let people lie about you and not respond.

I'm not attacking Mr. Lindell, but I do know he's very generous with money. And so he should send a million dollar check here to True News just to show that he's sincere in his apology. And I'll put it to use, breaching the gospel. I'm very serious about this. Mr. Lindell, you have defamed us repeatedly, and you need to show that you're humbly sorry. All right. Now, while we're wasting time talking about stupid, silly stuff like this. China today threatened immediate war with the United States of America. Yes. And also one of our senators, Senator John Cornyn of Texas, said that we have 30,000 troops in Taiwan.

Now, this is what brought on the, really, the statement from the Chinese. A very strong, I've never seen a statement like this before. Immediate war means today, means this hour. The Chinese, this is from the Express and also the Global Times. They are threatening immediate war after they're saying Senator Cornyn leaked the numbers. Now, what they're speaking about specifically, this has come from the Global Times editor-in-chief. John Cornyn, he tweeted this and deleted it. This is a tweet today.

He was laying out where the troops are for the United States. He's got 28,000 in South Korea, 35,000 in Germany, 50,000 in Japan, and then Taiwan. 30,000 troops. You know, another 7,000 in Africa, but that 30,000 caught the and then Taiwan. 30,000 troops. Another 7,000 in Africa. But that 30,000 caught the eye of the Chinese. And not just of the Global Times, Rick. The foreign ministry spokesperson caught this and said, we need immediate clarification of this. I didn't know we had three U.S. soldiers in Taiwan.

We shouldn't have any. I didn't know. Officially, we have zero. We've sent equipment. We've pledged to give them some support to stop an invasion by the Chinese, but no troops. John Cornyn is a senior senator from Texas, a well-respected man. He's on three major committees in the Senate. I know he's on judiciary, and he's also on the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence. I forget the third one that he's on. But if you're the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence.

I forget the third one that he's on. But if you're on the Select Committee on Intelligence, then you have access to classified information. Now, for John Cornyn to release a tweet that says the United States has 30,000 soldiers in Taiwan. Either Senator Cornyn, I don't know, did he send this tweet out at 3 o'clock in the morning? I mean, there was a reason why he just, you know, typed on his phone, Taiwan.

Did he mean Germany? Did he mean somebody else? Germany was on that. Oh, Germany was on the phone, Taiwan. Did he mean Germany? Did he mean somebody else? Germany was on that. Oh, Germany was on the last. Yeah. Okay. So what other country could it be? Or did he do it on purpose?

Well, he's a member of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence. Did he do it on purpose? Just so happened while this tweet was making the rounds, China was preparing a live fire exercise right off the coast of Taiwan, a drill which involves about 11 PLA jets. It's going to involve other ships in the area, but specifically these jets,

armed with bombs, missiles, things that you would use to destroy equipment, this has been perceived as a response to provocations, to intimidation. The Chinese said, this is a PLA colonel quoted by Taipei Times, they did this because of the presence of a U.S. fleet. It's partially led by the HMS Queen Elizabeth, the aircraft carrier, but there are U.S. soldiers on that, Marines. There's F-35 bombers that are run from the Marine Corps on that carrier.

That attack group, Rick, is right in the South China Sea. And this is happening right as China is threatening immediate war. So Senator Cornyn released that tweet about 30,000 troops supposedly in Taiwan. At the same time, China is doing a major war drill off the coast of Taiwan. Oh, Rick, it gets crazier. The Chinese response to this, this is in the South China Morning Post. They revealed today for the first time that they are developing a solar powered space station that according to a quote in the South China Morning Post, can be used. Potentially is a directed energy weapon to shoot beams of sunlight, energy back to Earth.

They claim it has a civilian usage, but also a military use. A year or two ago, we reported that China was going to build an artificial sun. Yeah. Okay. I can go all the way back. Let me think. a they were russia announced that they were going to build a giant mirror in outer space that could direct sunlight to the earth and i wasn't on radio yet i was i had left tv and i was traveling around the country but i put out a a press. And I don't remember which company I used.

You know, there are companies out there like U.S. Wire. I forget the other companies. You know, you pay them to distribute your press release to newspapers and news organizations. This is 1998. And the company refused to send my press release. And I contacted them. I got one of their editors, and he said, no, it's been rejected. Rejected for what?

For warning the American people. I'm basing this off of a Russian newspaper article. And we're out of time. You've got to take a break. I'll hold this until the second part. We have quite a lot more share right after the break, Rick. You've been watching True News. The all-new Prazer On Demand app will be available soon.

Rick, you were sharing a story about a PR newswire network that refused to allow you to warn the American people. Yes, 1998, and I got one of the editors on the phone, and he just told me, we're not going to send it out.

I said, but it's factual. And I quoted the news source. What did they say back? We're not going to send it out. They refused your money. No, they took my money. Oh. But then they refunded it.

He did say, we'll refund your money. But he refused to give me a reason for rejecting the article. It's a newswire. Isn't this news that Russians are putting a big mirror in space that could be a directed energy beam? But clearly somebody at the Defense Department or whatever intelligence agency did not want it to go out. But you've got to understand this. How did somebody at the Defense Department or an intelligence agency know that I wrote the press release? Unless one of their agents worked at the Newswire company.

Oh, absolutely. Well, they have their tentacles everywhere. Yes. They did not want that information out. They stopped it right then and there. Well, we know specifically for the Iraq War, 2003 invasion, they placed military intelligence agents and also CIA at places like CNN to serve as advisors, content advisors. PSYOPs. They had PSYOPs working in the news networks. And that only means you were over the target. Yes. Because they're like, oh, this is too true. So I'm not surprised about the story about China.

This is old to me, that they're going to have a directed energy weapon using the sun. But the next war is going to be horrific, the next world war. It will be horrific. Right. They're going to use weapons that we don't even know exist. You know, Rick, I'm a big fan of General George Patton. I've read just about every book there is on George Patton and everything.

And one of the things he has stated several times throughout his lifetime was that the failure of the US military, its biggest weakness is it always prepares for the war they previously fought. And in many ways, we are still doing that now. We're still fighting the Russians in the Soviet era. We're still fighting the Chinese during Mao Zedong's time. We're fighting those ideas instead of the possibility, the real possibility that Russia and China may have access to hypersonic weapons, directed energy weapons, sonic weapons. Drones.

Advanced drones at that. And so now are there some in our military that are aware of this? Oh, yes. But are there some that are in our military that are aware of these things? Yes. They were aware of technologies that Japan had leading up to World War II as well, but we missed it. And we missed the opportunities that we had to match the Germans as well. And so we always, I'm with George Patton, that we always fight to the previous one. General Milley is making sure that the soldiers like transgenderism.

Yes, make sure they can wear a dress whenever. Has Milley resign? They have a critical race there. No, he hasn't resigned. Has he resigned yet over Afghanistan? No, he hasn't. He just presided over the worst debacle in American military history. That's something being referred to as a BS case. When's he going to resign? He should. I mean, come on. He should be resigned by now.

He's resigned that he's part of the revolution. That's really it. He's resigned to his position that he's happy of how the last year has been carried out, Rick. And like Doc was mentioning about the generals, though the generals can play ignorance to this, when it comes to salvation, comes to eternity, the Lord's not going to let us be ignorant. There are going to be signs, signs and wonders and things that other news outlets won't report on either because they have a CIA agent inside their newsroom, or they're afraid to even touch these things. Things like a lightning bolt striking the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. Eric, have you seen this? I haven't seen this video. You know, how many times have we seen lightning strike the Washington Monument? The White House.

The White House, other buildings. So let's see this one. So there's a photographer on the wall watching this. Bad storms. If I saw this, I'd have to come to Jesus moment. Look at that. Now, Rick, this was so bad. They've actually had to close. They've extended the close of the Washington Monument. That area is closed down, both due to COVID. But they said the extension is after the lightning strike. What got struck? The memorial or the monument? The monument. But NBC Washington is saying because of this lightning strike, they've shut down that whole area.

Maybe something got damaged or maybe the curator, the person in charge said maybe this is a sign. Do you think God is offended by the Masonic obelisk? Yes. Yes. I absolutely believe that, Rick. And so there are so many Masonic symbols in Washington, D.C. You can just walk down the street and say, there's one, there's one, there's one, there's one. So, you know, Freemasons were there at the founding of our nation. There were two streams of thought that were going on at the founding of our nation, Christianity and Freemasonry, and they were competing side by side for the voice. Wheat and tares.

Yes, and so they grew up together. And for a while, Christianity seemed to have the advancement. But now, over the past century here, we've seen it swing the other way, and now Freemasonry is in full bloom now. The reason why soldiers, male soldiers are wearing dresses is because of Freemasonry and the infiltration of it. So whenever I see something like this, to me, it just reminds me God is continually providing signs to the American people that he is displeased with us, that he is angry SIGNS TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE THAT HE IS DISPLEASED WITH US, THAT HE IS ANGRY WITH US, THAT HE'S UPSET WITH US BECAUSE WE REFUSE TO GIVE UP OUR SIN.

WE LOVE OUR SIN SO MUCH THAT GOD IS SAYING, WILL THIS WAKE YOU UP? IF I LIGHT UP YOUR MONUMENT, WILL THAT WAKE YOU UP? FOR SOME, IT MIGHT, BUT FOR MOST, IT WON'T. IT WILL JUST BE ANOTHER DAY IN, YOU KNOW, this so-called paradise, this sin paradise they've created. People will share the video on social media, but not connect it to the message coming from heaven. Right. Yeah.

I mean, that's being spiritually dull. Right. And God's been doing, like and more signs becoming more evident. I believe it was recently a George Floyd monument was struck by lightning and reports say it was broad daylight.

Like they were like it was broad daylight and lightning struck this portrait of George Floyd. Like it's like God is striking our idols down. Like he is, he's letting us know

like it's time to repent. Like he's getting to a point where he's had enough. If threats of immediate war, the Lincoln Memorial being hit by lightning weren't enough. Out in California, Rick, there's been a terrible fire, one of the worst in California history. A million acres have burned. This is a photo sent by a retired firefighter, one that's kind of chasing the fire, he's praying on the grounds.

This is in Pollock Pines. This is east of Sacramento. That's what the fire. He's praying on the grounds. This is in Pollock Pines. This is east of Sacramento. That's what the sun looked like yesterday. Wow. Sun turned blood red. Have you seen the photographs of Jerusalem? There have been wildfires burning outside Jerusalem for days. Yeah, hundreds, thousands of acres have been catching on fire all around the city. Is that another sign? Another opportunity there to say, I'm not pleased with what's

going on here. I'm not happy with what I'm seeing. Well, they're not talking about bombing Iran, are they? Even though there have been strikes in Syria, even as the program airs right now, there's a strike in Syria that's been reported. We're not talking about going to World War of Iran right now. There's a strike in Syria that's been reported. We're not talking about going to World War of Iran right now. The Israelis are actually asking for humanitarian aid, workers to come to fight the fire they have in their own backyard. I wonder how many other signs like this are taking place in other countries and we're not seeing any of the news. We're not hearing about it. Didn't Haiti just have a big earthquake? Yes, they did. 1,400 dead.

Yeah. 1,400 dead, churches shattered. They're saying specifically churches throughout. You had a story that you shared with me about the Haiti earthquake in 2010. There was a church cracked in half, and the report was that church, there may be something bad that was going on inside there. Yeah. It's what I call cat do, which is a merger of Catholicism and voodoo, which is very prevalent

in Haiti, where they're practicing two religions simultaneously. They're blending strange fire at the altar, and it's abhorrent to God. So we're seeing these events happen. I mean, what was Haiti? 7.2 magnitude earthquake? 7.2, yes. That's huge. That's a massive earthquake. 1,400 people dead, and there will be a lot more by the time they finish counting the bodies.

Because the rubble is so great, it'll take them weeks to find all the people in the rubble. You just look around and the planet itself is shouting. Groaning. It's groaning. All creation is groaning. It's moaning under the weight of sin because God's planet, Earth, was never made to be contaminated, to be defiled with sin. And the blood is soaked with innocent, I mean, the soil is soaked with innocent blood over thousands of years.

Yes. I mean, all over the world, the soil is soaked with innocent blood. Going back thousands and thousands of years innocent people murdered wars all the things that man has done to fellow men uh the planet is is pleading with god release me give me some relief from this this is is, the planet is screaming, right? So the Bible says that blood has a voice and the earth has a mouth. And so the blood is crying out

through the mouth of the earth for justice, for the innocent. We are reaching the saturation level for mankind our we're we're in the stage how long does this continue it's hard for me to believe this goes on and on and on for hundreds of years because it's getting worse it possibly could but i can't imagine what life is like but i think we're reaching the saturation level. And in the book of the Revelation, the Bible says that God, Jesus Christ, comes back to destroy those who destroy the earth. He is the ultimate environmentalist. He made the planet.

He made the planet. It's not Mother Earth. It's the Father's Earth. It's his planet. Beautiful creation. And he's watching it day after day be marred and destroyed. And I mean, I grieve over what the pharmaceutical companies do to animals every day. Horrible experiments they do on innocent animals every day. so pharmaceutical companies can make billions of dollars on more drugs or cosmetics or hairspray or whatever and animals are being tortured look this is all those animal screams are going up to god the aborted babies their

screams are going up to god i don't know i don't know how he absorbs all of the screaming the pain the agony i don't know how he his heart can absorb it and not react but there is a day coming he will react he will stand up from his throne to judge and when that day comes it's lights out for mankind forever. It will be sudden, unexpected. It will come with fury. Jesus Christ will come through our into our dimension of time, space and matter. He will travel at a velocity we cannot even comprehend. And he will appear in our atmosphere. And suddenly the lights are out in the universe.

The entire universe goes black and only Christ is shining. And all the graves are open. Every human being who's ever lived on Earth. So just righteous. Not just the righteous. Everybody, sinners and saints, they all come out of the grave to see Christ. Every eye shall see him. And that day is coming soon. The largest gathering of mankind.

Think about it. It's the biggest one. More than 100, 200 billion people. How many people do you think will be there? I have no idea. But they're all going to be standing on the surface of the planet at the same time. Every eye is going to see him. And when Jesus told old Caiaphas, you're going to see the Son of Man coming.

Caiaphas has been in the grave for 2,000 years, Rick. That's right. Have you ever tried to figure that out? Jesus told old Caiaphas at the Sanhedrin, you're going to see the Son of Man coming. How would Caiaphas see the Son of Man coming when Caiaphas died 2,000 years ago? What Caiaphas didn't understand, what none of the Sanhedrin members understood, was that the man that they were getting ready to murder on a cross was saying to them, you're going to kill me, but I'm going to be raised from the dead i'm going

to raise myself from the dead okay do you understand he raised himself from the dead christ raised himself from the dead that's right he said you don't understand i mean he didn't say this to them but this is the the message he was sending to them hey caivas you think you're a hot shot right now you're a hotshot right now. You're about to murder me. But what you don't understand is I'm going to come out of the grave in three days and I'm going to ascend to my father in heaven. And then I'm going to come back. You will have been dead for thousands of years when I come back.

But when I come on the clouds. I'm going to put eyes back in that. You're coming out of your old stinky grave and you, Caiaphas, are going to see the son of man coming with great power and glory on the clouds. Adolf Hitler is going to see Christ come. Genghis Khan is going to see Jesus Christ come. Nimrod will see Jesus Christ come. Nimrod will see Jesus Christ come.

Everybody will come out of the graves. The first thing they're going to see is Christ. If the wicked, for the wicked, the second thing that they will see is a giant angel with fiery eyes pointing his finger at them saying, You, you belong with me. Come on. You're going to be bundled and burned. Because the wicked are bundled and burned first. Then the righteous are brought up.

Those that were dead in Christ are lifted up to meet Christ in the air. And then they, those who are alive when Christ returns, will be lifted up to meet Christ in the air. And then they, those who are alive when Christ returns, will be lifted up to meet them in the air. And that day is coming. And God is showing us the signs. He's telling us, your world is on fire. Your world is crumbling. Your world is falling apart.

Turn to Christ. He is the only one who's stable, the only one who's solid, the only one who is dependable. only one who's solid, the only one who is dependable. Your politics don't matter. Your race doesn't matter. Your money doesn't matter. The only thing that matters is that you put your faith in Jesus Christ, that you believe that he is the son of God, that you confess his name, that you're baptized in the name of the father, the son, and the Holy Spirit. That's what matters. Everything else is immaterial. It doesn't matter.

That's the good news. That's the true news. That's the real reason we're here every day. But we spend 99% of our time talking about things that are frivolous, that have no eternal value whatsoever. But the things that have eternal value, most people, including Christians, give very little time to it. When we should be devoting our time to worshiping the Lord and telling others about Christ and doing all that we can to advance his kingdom right now.

We should have the program right now. I guess we should. Rick, you've preached on this. You've just discussed, obviously, quoting the Bible about a great delusion that comes over the world many times. We know there's things that are assured. Things will happen. The final day, which you wrote about, we know that it's going to be loud. It's going to be bright. It's going to be fiery. There's a lot about the final day. But also, leading up to the final day, there'll be so many lies, so many deceptions,

so many things grabbing our attention that even the elect will be deceived. You think about that line there. If this isn't the end times, Rick, I don't know what 100 years looks like. I don't even know what 10 years from now looks like. What does 2030 look like if today we are seeing not just the wars, not just the rumors of wars, not just the deception, not just the famine, the droughts in the West. If this isn't the end, and mind you, thank God it's not the end. My friend just chose to get baptized.

We're going to go out to Alabama in about a month. We're going to meet up. He's in the military. The vaccine topic actually pushed him over the line. That's why I know that the Lord is working through these things. People are saying, well, Christians, why do Christians have an objection to the vaccine? Wow, wait a minute, I've never even examined this, but my good friend is going to get baptized. Believe in the name of Jesus Christ.

Thank God it didn't end the world today, because he wouldn't be saved. He'd be going to the lake of fire for eternity. And that is the extent of God's grace and mercy. But there's going to come a time where the scales will tip. It could be in the next five minutes. It could be in five years. You don't know when the scales are going to turn. And if anyone tells you they know when those scales are going to turn, they're liars.

Stay away from liars, okay? They don't know. And you could also have your own personal account settled immediately at any given time. Your heart could stop in a moment's time, and you are suddenly found yourself at the end of the line. And mercy ends when the heart stops. There are people who died thousands of years ago and who have been in their graves for millennia. And there is nothing you can do once you're in the grave. There's no repenting. There's no praising God.

There's nothing. Once you're in the grave, it's settled. Your eternal destiny is settled the moment your breath stops. So if you're thinking, well, the world's not going to end right now, but you might end right now. Yes. And that's what every one of us has to consider. The real possibility that today may be our last day. And how we're using it.

You ever hear people say, well, you know, if I die. If you die. You will die. You will die. It's a 99.999% chance that you're going to die. There's a 100% chance you're going to die. Unless Christ comes. Right.

In your lifetime. There's a 100% chance you're going to die. And yet people say, if I die. It's like they can't deal with that thought that they're going to die. Yeah. What are they waiting for? You have nothing to lose. Absolutely nothing to lose.

But I chose my death, Rick. I've died already. That's right. I've died to sin. I've died to slavery. I've died to all the past. And I have been resurrected to new life. That's right. So even if this shell that everyone looks at

and calls Doc Burkhardt, if it fades away to dust in the grave, I'm not dead. I'm alive in Christ. And the second death will not affect you. That's right. The first death, you die. But the second death, you really die.

That's right. That's right. The second death is when your soul is declared eternally dead, and yet it exists forever in the lake of fire. And that is something I don't want. I don't want anybody. There's not one person on earth. We don't hate anybody.

I don't. We don't hate Wright Watch. We don't hate Mike Lindell and these other people. We want you to be saved. I don't want anybody to be lost. & Walsh. You don't hate Mike Lindell and these other people. We want you to be saved. I don't want anybody to be lost. It grieves me. I think about it. I just absolutely, I shudder to think that any human being would spend eternity in the lake of fire.

And I want to make sure that I'm always telling people that they do not have to be damned to the lake of fire, that they can find eternal life through Jesus Christ. And not only have their eternities settled, but they can live in this life, a life full of joy and peace. In this life, you can be joyful. You can be at peace. I can't describe the peace that I have. DESCRIBE THE PEACE THAT I HAVE. I CAN'T DESCRIBE THE ASSURANCE THAT I HAVE. I DON'T WORRY ABOUT MY SALVATION.

I HAVE ETERNAL ASSURANCE. I'M SEALED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT. I DON'T WORRY THAT I'M GOING TO LOSE MY SALVATION. I HAVE PEACE. I FEEL LIKE I'M INCLOSED IN A HOLY COCOON. I REALLY FEEL THAT. I JUST FEEL LIKE I in a holy cocoon. I really feel that. I just feel like I'm wrapped in a cocoon and it's safe and I'm protected and I'm happy and I'm at peace and I'm joyful. And it doesn't matter what's going on around me. That's with me every minute of the day, this feeling of being enclosed in some type of protective bubble that keeps me safe at all times.

And if you don't have it, you can't have it. And there's a lot of people that don't have it, Rick. A lot of people are fretting right now, whether it be about how they're going to pay rent this month or how they're fretting about the fear variant. They fear the virus, any virus. They fear government tyranny. They fear all these things, but there is an escape. Really, there's a solution. There's a blessed hope, and it's what you're sharing. It's the gospel of the kingdom. You mentioned our use of our time, even our words. Think about it. It takes breath to do that. That is the same breath that was given to Adam.

How do we use that every day? Not just, I'm talking just in general. I think there's two things that you've taught me to think about when I wake up. Thank God for the day, but also how am I going to use that breath that was given to Adam today? And your words. Jesus said you will be held responsible for every idle word that is spoken. How many words have you spoken in your lifetime? I've spoken plenty, and I can say that probably not all of them were pleasing to the Lord, too.

But, you know, I'm trying every day. I try to make every action I take, every word I say, to be pleasing. You know, we were created to worship. We were created to disciple one another and share the gospel because He loves us. You know, we're his greatest creation. That's right. He loves us so much.

You know, so we are literally walking stewards of Jesus Christ himself, you know, and his message. So and that's what we, you know, we're temples for the Lord. Yes. And we're the light of the world. Yeah. He is the light. And yet his light is in us. And he expects us to shine in a dark world. He is the light and yet his light is in us and he expects us to shine

in a dark world. And he said you don't put a bushel basket over a lamp. You let it shine. You let that light be visible and this world is becoming extremely dark. I noticed one of the articles from Washington Post about the water shortage in the West. Yes. So like the Colorado River, Rick, there are going to be mandatory cuts to drinking water, but specifically farms. Farms are the first to go. When you have a drought, of course, people have to still drink water. But look, a lot of our crops come from the West right now.

Along the Colorado River, farmers have been there for 100 years, are facing the prospect they will not be able to have an efficient, a large, or even a usable harvest next year. That's when it affects this. Of all of these events, the fires, obviously, the political turmoil, they're affecting 2022. And I think often many get stuck in the day-to-day fears and they can't look forward. They can't look forward even a month. The shortages out in the West along the Colorado River, it's a geopolitical crisis. America feeds the world, or we used to. Yeah, if we can put this, it's thehill.com. And I think they got it from the Washington Post.

First ever water shortage declared on Colorado River triggering mandatory cuts in western states. No, it is the Washington Post. I'm sorry. I'm looking. I see I got two different articles confused. So the Washington Post first ever water shortage declared on Colorado River triggering mandatory cuts in western states and we have been here on Trinitas we have been talking about the coming drought for at least I'm gonna guess six years I think somewhere back around 2000 I'm gonna say 2015 maybe earlier I was interviewing climatologists who were warning that the western United States was going into a mega drought. A new mini ice age. Yes.

And we have seen sunspot activity drop to almost nothing. That's right. This was this past year. This affects 40 million people. You've got multiple things happening at the same time. Volcanoes, eruptions. Yes. So you have these mega earthquakes. You have a severe drought. This drought over the western

United States, and this is a wide area of the United States. Seven states, 40 million people. It is the worst drought in 1,200 years. And the reason that they know this is through the tree rings. And similar droughts have caused Native American populations to migrate. To migrate, yes. Massive migration. I mean, long distances. They had to get away from the West that it was there was no water for maybe a century or more. And again, we've been warning on this program that this drought was on the way. It's now in full bloom. And if you're living in the West and you you're thinking, oh, this is going to be another year or two.

This is just a short term drought. We've seen droughts before. Listen to me. This is a big one. This is a drought that has not been present in the western United States and western North America for 1,200 years. It's so big, Rick, secular media is calling it a biblical drought. Yes. So what am I telling you?

It's what I told you five or six years ago. If you live in the western United States, you're going to have to move. See, it's getting to the point now it's going to be hard to sell your land because anybody who's paying attention to what's going on is going to say, I'm not buying farmland. I'm not buying a house in the western United States. They're moving toward the equator.

Right. And so you're getting to a dangerous point where you're going to have to abandon your land, abandon your home, and seek water. The water's not coming back for probably 100 years. And so if you think you're going to outlive it, you're really foolish. This is a mega drought. And, you know, my prayer is that the people of God have wisdom and discern the times and know what the church should do. And each of us have to make that decision. Wherever we live, we have to decide, is this where we stay or do we have to make a major relocation in order to survive what's coming to that region? Well, Rick, and as you said, we have to pay attention to the times. And in this next segment, we're going to discuss other preparations that Christians are

going to have to make. Specifically, what are you going to do with mandatory vaccination that comes to the country? But first, here's Kerry Kinsey with some more True News Headlines. Welcome to True News Headlines. I'm Kerry Kinsey. CNN says the Biden administration is going to ask that most Americans get COVID booster shots eight months after they're fully vaccinated. The plan could be announced this week. Sounds like even the experts aren't very clear on all of this. And that breaking news tonight, booster shots for everyone. Nurse Alice, I'm wondering about the vaccine itself, this booster. Is it specific to the Delta variant or is this a repeat of the

vaccine we've already had? Well, right now it's the same vaccine that we already had, but these companies are working on different formulas, if you will, of these vaccines, trying to target the emerging variants. I believe it'll be something like the flu shot where every year the flu vaccine is altered to target the vaccine that are suspected to be in circulation. So I'm pretty sure that's what these pharmaceutical companies are going to be doing. Pretty sure, huh? Zero Hedge reporting New Zealand is locking down the country after detecting its first local case in 170 days. Wow. The PM, Jacinda Ardern, says keep your mouth shut. Literally. overseas cases of the Delta variant, that it can be spread by people simply walking past one another. So keep those movements outside to the bare minimum, wear a mask and make sure you keep up that physical distancing. For information on that story and more, visit our companion website.

It's a good one. It's called newscoup.com. More on that breakthrough covid case that killed a Southwest Airlines flight attendant. The New York Post says Maurice Reggie Sheperson was based in Las Vegas. He tested positive for the bug in early July. It's not clear when he got the experimental jab. This next story should be titled Busted in Nashville. Axios says a Tennessee investigation found evidence that the state's fired vaccine chief bought a dog muzzle that she previously claimed someone had mailed to her in an attempt to intimidate her. Michelle Fiscus has characterized her firing as a political move. She even went on CNN to talk about the muzzle.

Republican lawmakers criticized her for highlighting a memo she sent explaining how providers in Tennessee could vaccinate some teenage patients without a parent's approval. Children'sHealthDefense.org reporting that the latest data dump by VAERS says more than 571,000 people are reporting adverse events from the jab. This is the CDC recommends a third vaccine for some. Now that includes 12,791 deaths, 425 more than the previous week. Look at that second figure on this list. It's permanent disability. More than 16,000 people are reporting that they are permanently disabled after getting

the experimental poke. These numbers are from December of 2020 through August 6. That's a look at True News headlines. Thank you for watching. Thank you, Kerry. As Kerry was showing there, the VAERS data, 500,000 injuries. Again, this is the number that's depressed. As Matt Scow, our documentary director, said yesterday on the program, Dr. Robert Malone, an inventor of mRNA technology used now in the Pfizer-Moderna vaccines. He's saying it could be 10, 100% depressed. That could be 50 million injuries. Doc, Lauren, I'm not sure if you saw this story today, but the New York Times is claiming

there's a new initiative from the Biden administration, and it involves endless booster shots. Right. So they've now come to the conclusion that the current vaccines aren't effective. Let me repeat that. Current vaccines do not stop you from getting coronavirus. That's official now. That's from the CDC. That's from the head of our government, the Biden administration, pushing now to fix this, to rectify it.

They are now moving to booster shots. You know, something I thought about today, Edward, is that the CDC has admitted that if you're fully vaccinated, you can pass COVID on, right? But who are they requiring tests of? Most employers. They say to a potential employee, they say, get the vaccination or submit to weekly test. Well, shouldn't everyone be tested? Very good point, Doc. Shouldn't everyone be tested because the fully vaccinated can pass on the virus.

The CDC admits this. So therefore, I'm not advocating it. I'm just saying this is where the fault in the logic is. And the fault in the logic is. And the fault in the logic is that means that everyone should be tested. Right. But that's what the logic says. But the purpose is to punish those who are unvaccinated. Punish those who do not submit. Realistically speaking, if they both can transmit COVID, then they would be testing both. However, they want to reward the vaccinated by not submitting them to tests every week.

So this is an exclusive punishment for the unvaccinated. A hunter doesn't go out to shoot something that's already dead. They also don't go out to shoot other hunters. They're going out for prey. And that article, we love to read these articles. I tell you what, there are some gems hidden inside of them. The first is they've got their prey. They've got their target.

The first boosters, if you've gone through two of the Pfizer shots, they're going to nursing home residents. Once again, they're going after nursing home residents. Then it's health care workers, emergency workers. It also said that they'll probably fall by other older people. You've got to make sure all the older people in society are the ones that get these boosters. This is for the vaccinated, mind you. The boosters are for those who've already decided to take the shot.

It makes you wonder if the original shots are no good anymore. That's the implication. But they also said something else here. They said that the reason they're doing this is because they have a template nation. Oh, really? There's another country out there that's already busted through the COVID frontier and kind of set the path up for us? What country could that possibly be, Edward? Doc, they're doing so well, they're giving out million-dollar prizes.

Oh, really? And the nation is Israel. Israel. Israel, according to this article, can in some ways be viewed as a template for the United States because it vaccinated more of its population faster and has almost exclusively used the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, that's the mRNA vaccine, that made up much of the U.S. stock. Unlike the United States, though, Israel has a nationalized health care system.

I guess that's the one thing we're missing here. That allows it to systematically track patients. And we would be doing better if we were actually tracking, surveilling, spying on everybody who thinks they may have had COVID. And that those 65 years or older who got their second shot in January, the vaccine is now only 55% effective against the severe disease. Doc, I haven't seen the studies yet done about the effectiveness of those who've gotten COVID, unfortunately, like me and Rick and others, and how well that immunity has parsed for us. But Israel is the template. And the Times of Israel is bragging about it.

One million Israelis have gotten a third dose already. Already. They got this on their own volition. They've been told it's a great way to keep yourself safe. Specifically, kids and the elderly. Kids were the weird one because as we've seen with the official data, children are the least affected. It's been the argument against mandatory masks, for example. The children ages under 16, let's even go under 10.

Infants are trying to go after pregnant women too. They're the least impacted by it. Yet the third dose and even the first and the second in Israel, concentrate on it. I'm sure if that's the template, that's what it's going to be here also. Now on Sunday, the NIH Director, National Institute of Health Francis Collins, a good Christian. The evangelical Francis Collins. Evangelical, pharmakia master. He started speaking about booster shots. Now, apparently it's now somewhat okay to say that the vaccines aren't working that well.

That's a conspiracy theory that will get you deplatformed. That's something that's too dangerous. You might be killing people. Unless you're the NIH director, then you can say it. Unless you're the NIH director. Pay close attention to the statements from Dr. Francis Collins and specifically about the template nation. One of the big questions now, Dr. Collins, is whether or not all of us who got the vaccines in the first place are going to need a third shot or a booster, whatever you want to call it, because of declining protection from the vaccine over time. Now, you and the CDC and

all the top government scientists are saying, well, maybe sometime later this fall, maybe early next year. But in Israel right now, they are giving the third shots to everybody over 60. And starting this week, they're going to be giving the shot to everybody over 50, which raises the question, do they know something we don't, sir? Well, we're looking very closely at their data as well as our own. This is a tricky situation. First, let's point out that just on Friday, CDC's advisory group and the CDC director accepted it, approved a third shot for people who have immunocompromised. But that's a separate question. What about the rest of us? Again, we are looking at this data almost daily. Yet there is a concern that the vaccine may start to wane in its effectiveness over months.

And Delta is a nasty one for us to try to deal with. The combination of those two means we may need boosters, maybe beginning first with healthcare providers, as well as people in nursing homes, and then gradually moving forward. We have not made that decision yet because right now the data we have from the U.S. says people who are vaccinated are fully protected, even against Delta. When you're talking about severe disease, you're not going to end up in the hospital if you had that vaccination. And, of course, the big message right now this morning is, Chris, for the people who aren't vaccinated, this is the moment to absolutely get off the fence and take care of this because you are a sitting duck for this virus.

It's looking for you. But you must know that there are people who did get vaccinated who are seeing, and there have been some studies, as you say, it doesn't indicate people are going to get, certainly be hospitalized or die, but that the protection from the vaccine is waning. And as you know, some people have gone and gotten a third booster on their own in this

country, you know, either lied about it or whatever. And, you know, if you're looking at what's going on in Israel, which seems like a pretty safe and careful country, why shouldn't you say, well, if they're doing it, I'll do it? Well, in fact, that is the question we're asking closely. Remember, Israel had Delta hit them sooner than it did us. So in a certain way, the timetable we're looking at is stepped back a bit because of the spread of this virus. That's part of it. But also, we're a different kind of country with different situations. That kind of thing will get you deplatformed.

Yeah. Different country, different values. But you heard something there. I'm not a doctor, Doc. But you are, by the way. Congratulations again, different values. But you heard something there. I'm not a doctor doc, but you are by the way. Congratulations again. Doctor doc. But what I was going to say here is that I don't quite understand how the most vaccinated nation on the planet was the first one to get the Delta variant. Is that an indication that maybe a mutation took place? Maybe the vaccination

drive led to the emergence of the Delta variant. Well, tell me how they know it's the Delta variant and not some other variant. How do they know? Can you take a test for the Delta variant? You can't, can you? Doc, they know because it's the mindset it puts you in. They start telling you about it. They said go to Israel. We heard that, right? That's the NIH director.

We have to listen to the NIH director. Let's go there. Okay, what are they saying in Israel? What are they saying in the studies, in the rabbinical courts in Israel? Well, Doc, they're saying something very different than our NIH director. You said it's the template. So how about we have a look at a statement made by Dr. Vladimir Zev Zelenko. Now he's famous for the hydroxychloroquine Zelenko protocol.

This was something that many doctors and patients, victims of a bioweapon, a mutant disease, used to survive. He had a lot of success according to his data. This is what he told the Ma'ala Adim Rabbinical Court in Israel last week. Regarding children, the only reason you would want to treat a child is if you believe in child sacrifice. The miscarriage rate in the first trimester, a woman gets vaccinated in the first trimester goes from 10% to 80%. You are the study right now. The Pfizer CEO said Israel is the biggest laboratory in the world. The biggest risk to humanity and the biggest risk of genocide in the history of humanity.

Definite evidence that it affects fertility. Damages ovarian function. It reduces sperm counts. The current Israeli government is a gilgul of Joseph Mengele. They have committed human experimentation on their own people. There is no need for this vaccine. And there's actually no need for anyone. And I'll explain.

Children, I already told you, they have a 99.998% chance of getting better. Young adults from 18 to 45 have a 99.95% of getting better. Someone who has already COVID and has antibodies, naturally induced immunity is a billion times more effective than artificially induced immunity through vaccine. So why would I vaccinate someone with a poison dev shot that makes inferior or dangerous antibodies when I already have healthy antibodies? And I really believe that God is testing every human being here. And here's the test. Take your fears and ask me to help? the czar of the eagle of the vaccine of your governments of of despots and tyrants like

sociopaths who want to be deities there's nothing new under the sun these people are no different than paro they thought they think they're god and you're going to bow down to them if you're going to bow down to them let's okay let them you. Let's see how that's going to work out. At the beginning of that, Dr. Zelenko said that treating children for this crazy virus and everything is equivalent to child sacrifice. Yes. He said he can't wrap his head around this past that because there's no reason to have children wear masks at all times. No reason to have them vaccinated with an experimental shot. The only thing you could be doing is a blood sacrifice. He also called it the poison death shot. He didn't mince words. That is what was being said in Israel. That's the template that our NHS director is saying.

I found it very interesting that he said that Israel is like the biggest laboratory, like they're just running a giant experiment there on those people. I mean, they were the number one vaccinated country in the globe, you know, and they had some of the highest rates of the Delta variant. We don't know the Delta variant. We're not really sure if it's, you know, what it is, but, you know, maybe they were ground zero for it. You know, maybe they created the variant. You know, we were able to interview, Matt Scow was able to interview Dr. Zelenko for the movie The Greatest Reset. Now, you've been seeing clips of Dr. McCullough, Dr. Malone, all the professionals. Matt Scow has hunted them down and put them in their

documentary. Now, they were able to track him down and do an interview with him recently. And we're going to show you a little clip of what else he had to say. It's very interesting. Check it out. If, let's say, half a million people had died, we could have prevented 420,000. I'll say that again. Out of a half a million people, dead people, we could have prevented 420,000 from going to the hospital. COVID-19, whether it was intentional by them or an act of God or someone else, I don't know.

But I can tell you that the response to the management of COVID is consistent with the agenda of the world economy. I think this is genocide and a crime against humanity and mass murder. And I believe the culprits of orchestrated this should be hung at the Hague. To set an example for future wannabe despots that the world and the goodness of humanity will not tolerate tyranny. journey. Incredible statement by Dr. Zelenko.

And that's just a little piece of the interview. Just a small piece of the interview, but a piece that is very important. War crimes, genocide, crimes against humanity, things that were accused of Hitler and the Nazis. Look, Nimrod would have been accused of these crimes too. It's a crime against life, like we discussed in the first hour, a crime against God's creation. And what's being said here? We could have saved 80%. Let's go to this.

How many are being killed? We have no idea. That's what's being said in Israel, though. This is the Israeli experts, the Israeli rabbinical court. This is what our NIH director is referencing without telling us. I didn't hear anything close to that from the NIH director. Well, and one thing, a year ago, what we were saying was, we can't afford to let a single person die because of COVID. Would not a single person die. Remember how valuable that was? We can't let a single person die because of COVID. Well, I maintain we can't let a single person die because of the vaccine.

I mean, if we're going to use that same statement, if we're going to be consistent, then I would say we can't let a single person die of the vaccine. People are dying of the vaccine. Yesterday, we had the opportunity to show you another clip of Greatest Reset with Dr. Robert Malone. And Dr. Robert Malone had his, some opinions that he had wanted to share with the worldwide audience regarding the technology that's used in COVID vaccines. We have this statement from Dr. Malone here, and he goes through and walks you through the what the technology is that's used in COVID vaccines and why you need to be aware of it. So he starts off saying the Delta variant. And actually, from his perspective and listening to the whole thing, Delta is just the stage of the virus, not the separate virus itself.

And so Delta has a row of about eight, a return of effect of about eight three times that of alpha the beginning the first iteration with these leaky vaccines and i like the word he uses there if we were to have a hundred percent vaccine uptake and perfect mask use we cannot stop the spread okay this is the guy that pioneered mrna technology goes on to say the current vaccines provide about 50 to 60% efficacy and protection from infection. They are not fully protective. And the CDC has admitted as much. If you are vaccinated and become infected,

a breakthrough infection, the virus will replicate at the same or higher levels than if you were unvaccinated and then become infected. Think about that. Same or higher levels. Goes on to say, if you are vaccinated and then become infected, your risk of transmitting virus to someone else is quite high. Remember, the return of effect measures how likely you are to transmit the virus. If you're vaccinated and then become infected, your risk of developing severe disease or dying is better than if you are not vaccinated and then become infected on the Delta curve. Therefore, if you are vaccinated and then become

infected, you may have a higher risk of becoming a super spreader because you are less likely to show disease. Now, think about that. You become a super spreader because you are not exhibiting symptoms of the disease. This is incredible. Yeah. Doc, this, again, is something that Rick has been trying to point out all year. The choice to get vaccinated has made you dangerous. It's not the unvaccinated, not those who were doing their own research, were taking responsibility,

were the ones to actually probably stay home if they were sick. Self-quarantine, not being ordered by the government or at the threat of a bayonet or bullet. The vaccinated, the ones that went and did it out of fear, the ones that did it out of compromise. They said, I'm going to be able to travel now. I'm going to be able to have some of my freedom back if I get this. Well, guess what? It's August and you don't have your freedoms back.

They're telling you you've got to go get more boosters now. Yeah, so they went through, you want your freedom? Wear a mask. All right, so everyone put on their mask. You want your freedom? Social distance. So everybody, social distance, you want your freedom? Wear a mask. All right, so everyone put on their mask. You want your freedom? Social distance. So everybody, social distance. You want your freedom?

Get a shot, and you'll get your freedom. You want your freedom, Lauren? Get the second shot, okay? All right, now, you got your freedom, right? No. If you want your freedom, you got to get the booster shot, okay? So what do you have to do next to get your freedom? What's the next thing?

You have to not just fully submit. You have to change the way you think. Now, Lauren, you and I, we were traveling with a team out in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. We got stuck in Chicago. You know, we were kind of a spectacle. We had all these TSA agents around us. And even though they seemed like they started rooting that we'd make that flight, they're making it tough. Because we were a spectacle, people started to come out asking what was going on. We had a very odd conversation in Chicago. Doug, I don't know

if I got a chance to share this with you. So you'd think the Republican, the conservative position right now is you're against lockdowns. You're at least hesitant about the vaccine, certainly are not for mandating it or forcing it in the arms of anybody. Lauren, how would you tell us about the man we met in the airport? I will. I'd like to say one last thing about the last subject we were talking about. You know, it's very telling that people are getting the vaccine because they want their freedom back. They're not getting it out of fear of catching COVID. It's like, OK, well, if I want to go travel or if I want to go to eat, like I have to go get the vaccine.

It's not about fear of the vaccine itself or of the disease. It's their tradeoff for freedom. Yeah, exactly. And that is so like it's disgusting. Yeah. And, you know, and there's people that I love that have been vaccinated that are getting sick. I wish they would just stop lying. Nobody's buying it anymore. We're sick and tired of the lies. We're sick and tired of flipping. You hit on something that's been bugging me now for months,

in that so many people are getting the vaccine not to prevent getting COVID, but so they could have freedom. Yeah, exactly. They rule and reign over us to the point and they lie to people they bury information they censor the truth um you know you have to go on alternative media in order to find out the truth about the vaccines and the side effects they're even saying there's data isn't real data well i mean we know it's only a small portion of the actual injuries and the death and the people that are dying. Our U.S. government is lying to us and people are getting sick and dying. And it is terrifying. And people are buying it because they're like, oh, I want my

freedom back. So I'm going to have to go get the jab. But really, the whole thing is about putting money in big pharma's pocket because they get money every time a jab goes into somebody's arm. And that's the passionate concern that you expect from our side. It's not about a side even. Just normal people, sane people, Christians especially. And I thought Republicans and conservatives thought this way. Well, tell me what's not the case. It's turned out we have anti-mask, pro-vaccine Republicans. That's the Republican Party platform now. And it is affecting the voters. Yes. Yes. So when we were traveling to Mike Lindell's symposium, we were stopped and harassed by TSA, of course, escorted with Department of Homeland Security. Well, we had a gentleman who came up to us. He was like,

kind of like, oh, what's going on? He's actually from Floridaida um if you remember he was he said he was a constitutional conservative he was a fox from our area now i remember he was from our area yeah and he was a you know fox news viewer and he's talking to us he's like hey what's going on like we're like oh we're going out to mike lindell he was like oh yeah you know i know the election was stolen all this stuff uh you know he was he was seemed like one of us but then he was wearing two masks. And then he started asking us questions about COVID, about our vaccination status, you know, where we stood on these issues and these issues. And I found his response very concerning to find what the current stance of the conservative GOP is on mandatory vaccinations. Yes, this made me jump up because

Lauren was speaking with him. I'm doing production work while we're moving. And he said to Lauren, I've had a radical change in my belief. I'm pro-gun. I'm Republican. I voted for President Trump. I'm now of the belief set that people should be forced to take the shot. They should. They're selfish for not doing it.

You know, we should have camps. We should have quarantine camps. I want everybody who's not vaccinated to get some kind of badge. I looked, I jumped up. I was like, what did you just say? Lawrence said, you're like, oh my goodness. You said you're a Republican? You said you understand the election. He really said these things. And this is a gun owner. This is a supposed NRA member. Fox News reviewer. Fox News watcher. He's for mandatory vaccination and quarantine camps.

Camps where they put you behind barbed wire. Right, yeah. He said specifically, he said I have the right to know that I'm traveling with people that are fully vaccinated. He tried to sell it to us like we're young kids. Like, well, I mean, I think you should have vaccine passports, but we'll make them digital for you. It's like, like, is that supposed to make a difference? Is that it's digital or that it's like literally a thing on my forehead saying, hey, I've been vaccinated or a yellow star on my arm?

Actually, it turns out that he was Jewish. And it was very funny. He told us that because we brought up Israel as an example. We said, Israel's most vaccination in the world, yet the Delta variant is surging. That's official news. I'll show you. Wrap my phone, sir. He's like, oh, no, don't worry.

I'm Jewish. I'm Jewish, and I believe this is good. So I said, this is kind of, this is Nazi-ist. The thinking here is something I'd expect from Goebbels or the nazis he's like no no no no i need this for my survival that's what he was afraid i saw the fear and he even said he was going back for his third booster shot he was like i wish i got in moderna when i got pfizer and if a third one works a fourth one will do great right and they know that they know that people believe that they'll go for seven they'll'll go for unlimited and become like a basic candy jar.

You know, you're going to get to go every time you think you might be sick. Yeah. That's the last thing I want to hear from a Jewish old man is that he wants to sterilize me, hold me down and put a jab in my arm so he can feel safe. You know, it was absolutely ridiculous. I don't know what Fox News is teaching their viewers, but they need to knock it off. I was online last night and I monitor Twitter. I don't tweet much anymore. I spend most of my efforts at sharing messages on Gab now. And by the way, if you're not on Gab, you need to be on Gab. And I'm on Gab, so you can find me there, too.

Lauren's on Gab. I'm definitely on Gab. She is definitely a Gabber. I'm a Gab, so you can find me there too. Lauren's on Gab. I'm definitely on Gab. So she is definitely a Gabber. I'm a Gabber too. But I saw something on Twitter last night that broke my heart. A man that I have respected for decades, that I've always held in high esteem, said, for your information, I am for the vaccine. This is a major evangelical leader. I'm not going to mention his name.

You go look it up. I know who you're talking about. You find it yourself. He said, for your information, I am for the vaccine. Now, it broke my heart. I was weeping last night. And I know we're going to break, Edward, so I'll toss it back to you. But it's everywhere, folks.

It's everywhere. Oh, it's an important message, and that's also why you're important, Doc. I enjoy New Zion Assembly. You're a pastor who won't compromise. We'll be back in just a moment with our guest. Whoever loves instruction loves knowledge, but he who hates correction is stupid. A man is not established by wickedness, but the root of the righteous cannot be moved. An excellent wife is the crown of her husband, but she who causes shame is like rottenness in his bones.

The thoughts of the righteous are right, but the counsels of the wicked are deceitful. The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but he who heeds counsel is wise. A fool's wrath is known at once, but a prudent man covers shame. Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord, but those who deal truthfully are His delight. Culture warriors in this country are breaking down traditions, morals, family structure. They've been doing this for decades, and they are aiming their guns at young men. They want to feminize them.

They want to demonize them. They want to criminalize them so that they will not act like the men that God created them to be. God Tribe is a social media educational platform, digital platform, for young men and to give young men a place to congregate where they feel safe. Its mission is to build better men. It's a place for Christian men to congregate with other Christian men and communicate with each other, fellowship, encourage each other, building up each other to be better men for Jesus Christ. That's the purpose.

Welcome back to True News. You haven't been linked though to Iraq. You know that this week Kabul fell to the Taliban, but it fell to sodomy about a month ago. The U.S. Embassy, the $700 million one that, again, we've abandoned, left there. They decided to fly a special flag.

Not the U.S. flag. That would be normal. It would be expected. They decided to put up the abomination. The stolen, I won't even call it a rainbow flag, the LGBTIQ any crazy variant flag. All right. The sodomite variant, I think, would be added to that.

But they decided to put this up. This is before the overthrow. Lauren, is this why Kabul fell? We were too worried about the flag we had out there. Why not have that flag up now? Why not? Because the Taliban, they will kill people with that. That's right. Well, pride certainly comes before the fall. And it made me question, you know, what kind of values was the U.S. government bringing over to Afghanistan? You know, we certainly weren't there preaching the gospel. We were sending them gender studies, feminism, encouraging abortion, independence of women. You know, everything that we as Christians

stand against, and especially, you know, us flying the pride flag. It was embarrassing is what it was. You know, that isn't a sign of strength. That's a sign of degeneracy and weakness. And that is what America purposefully represented over there, those values to the Afghan people. You know, now I think we should have sent missionaries over there. You know, we have churches that are underground there, Christian churches, people that are afraid now of the Taliban. Yes, you mentioned on a program weeks ago this subject. We got an email. I'm not going to go into it. They were criticizing it.

It was, Lauren does not know history. She doesn't know about the Crusades. Now, what we're trying to talk about here is that our money is being spent to send weapons, to fund terrorists. We're doing all these things. Why aren't we helping missionaries? Why aren't we helping? Not that we'd even want a form of religious fascism in that sense. We don't need the government to help us. We just need the government to leave us alone, give us freedom. But the point is

it's taken. Our government's not handing out Bibles. They're putting up the LGBTQ flag. But our message to those in that lifestyle is that there's another way. And we love to speak to people who've come out of the lifestyle as a witness to those who, honestly, they're still stuck in that bondage. Yeah, absolutely. You know, there are thousands of Americans who struggle even today with their identities, their sexuality, you know, and there are, but God is still working. Jesus is still good. He's still pulling people out of the lifestyle. And I'm so excited to introduce to you today, Mariah Barton.

I actually found her. Hi, Mariah. How are you? Hey, I'm good. How are y'all? Thank you. Thank you so much for joining us today. So I found Mariah on Facebook.

She had a viral post that went out earlier this year talking about how she had left the LGBTQ lifestyle and found freedom in Christ. Mariah, why don't you tell us a little bit about yourself and tell us a little bit about your journey to Jesus Christ? Yeah, absolutely. Well, thank you guys for having me on here. I'm 24 years old, so I don't have a lot of life experience, but the majority of my life was confusion. I was adopted from Russia at nine months old. And growing up, I always felt not connected is how I would say that. And so we moved around a lot. I grew up in Kansas and we went to Atlanta. When I was in Atlanta, I was hanging around with a lot of people who just weren't good for me. And I didn't know that I grew up Methodist, but I did not actually know the Lord.

And so when that was going on, I was constantly battling, but I was trying to be this church girl. And I feel like if you ask anybody from my growing up, they would say, oh, she was like nice and respectful and she loved Jesus. And all of that was just not true at all. And so I got into high school and we had moved to Nashville. And there was this stigma of being preppy and girly. And I was never that. I played sports my whole life. And I tried to be this person I wasn't while like secretly struggling with my sexuality. And eventually I played lacrosse and basketball. Lacrosse was my main sport. And so I, you know, went into lacrosse full force,

was trying to get recruited to college and I found this community of friends who actually were engaging in that lifestyle and it made me feel really comfortable. I wasn't super close to my parents, never had that emotional bond with my mom and so when that was going on I was searching for it in other places like teachers and friends and I never had a normal friendship. I was always like hitting on friends and and I never had a normal friendship I was always like hitting on people secretly well I thought it was secretly it probably wasn't um and so anyways I went through high school and I was just depressed I was suicidal um and I at that point I had signed to play lacrosse at a school in Alabama that was super liberal. I wasn't a Christian at the time.

I didn't care. And I was like, this is going to be amazing. I'm going to find my wife. I love this. A lot of my teammates were living in the lifestyle or allies. And some miracle happened where the Lord just came into my life in a totally spiritual way. I had signed, so I had signed to play lacrosse. And a couple weeks later, I, in the summer, went to a concert that the rapper was a lesbian. And I talked to her after and she was like, dude, you should just come out. Like, you're gay. I can tell, you know, be proud of who you are. And so I was like, okay. And, um, I went home and I made the decision to

come out to my parents, which went horrible. And, um, I thought I'd feel free and I just felt miserable. And so the Lord encountered my life and just, that's a whole nother story. It's a long story, but just radically changed my life. And I realized what I was doing was not what the Lord had called me to. And I remember praying one night and I said, Lord, I don't want to feel this way. Like I hadn't prayed in years. And I said, I don't want to do this. I don't want to feel this way. And he didn't really answer me. But I said, if I wake up in the morning and I'm not attracted to my friend I'm with right now, I'll serve you for the rest of my life. And if not, I quit. And I woke up and I looked at my friend and I just felt nothing.

And so I knew that's the quick version. But I knew that the Lord was calling me to something more than that. That's awesome. I saw in the post the testimony that you had shared that the Lord had spoken to you and told you that your husband was waiting for you. Do you mind sharing with the audience, you know, this kind of stuff? I mean, God does encounter people. You know, he changes people. He's the only one who can, you know, in a world that tells you, hey, you have to be proud of your sin.

You have to stay in this lifestyle because that's who you are. That's who the world wants you to be. But Jesus Christ intervened. Would you mind sharing that part of your story? I just found that absolutely fantastic. Yeah, absolutely. So to kind of dive into that, I was in Mississippi with one of my best friends. She was one of the only Christians in my life at the time. And she had no clue I had just come out. She had no clue any of this was going on. And she got really sick the week we were supposed to hang out. And then a couple weeks later, I was supposed to move to college. And so the week went by and I was just bored and unhappy because she was sick. And that is the night, the last night is the time that I was struggling and I prayed that prayer.

And I also have struggled with pornography for a really long time. It was a big part of my sexuality confusion. And when I prayed that, that is the Lord just spoke so clearly. And her boyfriend, who's also a Christian, was praying with her at the time. And I looked over there and I was like, this is disgusting. literally and her her boyfriend who's also a Christian was praying with her at the time and I looked over there and I was like this is disgusting and um I just felt the Lord in that moment go one that's what I want for you and that's what I'm calling you to and then three or two or three um the second that you give up pornography and your sexual sin your husband is

waiting for you and I just remember in that moment being so confused because I was not attracted to men. And so it took a couple of years, but I started to pursue that. And I'm just trying to be bold about my story to other people today. Well, right. I just want to commend you. Having the courage to be obedient to the Lord is big. I mean, I'm sure, especially, I have my own testimony too, but you're the story today. You were obedient to the Lord. You listened, and

you even, you prayed, and you gave the Lord a challenge. It's sometimes dangerous because you never know what's going to come back. But welcome to the family. Welcome to the family. My understanding is that you're graduating from Lee University now? She just graduated.

Just graduated. What was your degree in? It wasn't in basket weaving, right? No. It was in advertising and communication. Oh, very interesting. Okay. Congratulations.

Let's pull up that picture I submitted of her. I have like a little before and after picture, and look what Jesus can do. You know, he took, you know, somebody who was engulfed in another lifestyle and he radically, like, just changed her. You know, he, she is graduating from Lee University, which is a Christian university in Tennessee, with a degree, you know, with purpose in her life and freedom from sexual bondage, from sexual degeneracy, from gender identity, dysphoria as well. You know, everything that the enemy tried to throw at her, God had a different plan for her. And this is an example of it right here, and I love to see it.

Mariah, this is Doc, and I also commend you and thank you for making that confession of faith in Jesus Christ. You said something interesting caught my attention there. You talked about your struggles with pornography. Now, most of the time, the association of pornography, if it's a man's issue, it's an issue that men deal with. And they don't get the understanding at times that it's something that a lot of women deal with as well. Could you expand on that a little bit, please? Yeah, absolutely. That's so key what you just said. I was accidentally exposed to a nude scene on TV when I was 10 at a friend's house at a sleepover. Everybody else was asleep. And she was like, we should go watch something. And I was like, okay. And she clicked on something

and something in my gut was like, this is not about to be good. I don't know. That's just, I guess the Lord. And she had to put a passcode in. And when she put the passcode in, there was just explicit content that popped up on the screen. And I remember turning around for like in a split second and running to the bathroom

and I just cried and I was 10 and I just knew that something was wrong. And that's what spiraled me into a 13 year addiction with that. Um, and I remember being so confused. Nobody talked about it. The church didn't talk about it. My church didn't talk about it. Um, I wasn't comfortable enough to talk about it, you know, with my parents, I tried, but it didn't really do anything. And I just remember Googling, you know, I'm a, I'm a Christian, I go to church, and I'm struggling with porn. And I'm a girl, and nothing came up, like, I just couldn't find any resources. And so it led me almost into a belief that it was fine or that it was normal or that I just have a lot of shame and I just really need to hide what

I'm doing. So it's either okay or it's not, and I'm not sure which one it is. Um, and so I think the biggest problem with the porn industry is that, you know, you start and it's just, I guess you could call basic stuff. It's horrible, but just basic things. And then further along in an addiction, you're looking at things you never could have imagined you were looking at. And, um, that definitely played just such a horrible role in my sexuality. And a lot of my friends, I guess they're ex friends now, but in the LGBT community, they look at that and they glorify it. And it's something that's so fun or it's, or it's fun to imitate that, those things. And, and, um, they just get stuck in this hole. Would you, Mariah,

would you say that, uh, pornography is a common denominator among many people within the, what they consider the LGBT community? Uh, is that a tie that kind of connects a lot of people that find themselves in that particular sexual sin? Yeah, that's a good question. I guess I can't say for everybody, but when I was involved in that lifestyle, absolutely. It was something that was openly talked about. There was no shame behind it. It was like, yeah, you should look at this or you should look at this. And I definitely think pornography and parent situation and home situations and like young trauma is just all of those are such common denominators between people who end up in that lifestyle. Well, Mariah, this

might be something you're still processing, and maybe you don't have an answer to this, but we have a lot of parents who watch. Yesterday we had on Bernadine Bluntley, and we discussed homeschooling, we discussed the way you should raise your children. She homeschools because she doesn't know what else she can do to keep her kids away from the things that might corrupt them, like experience that you you had did you have a conversation with your parents and is there something now you would have wished your parents would have done i'm talking to your adopted parents now to stop you from falling into this or in the sense being exposed initially with that

explicit scene on tv at a sleepover yeah um so within a short time frame of seeing that, I do remember going to my dad. We do disagree about this to this day, but I do remember telling my dad, hey, I just looked at this and I'm not sure what to do. And this isn't good. And I feel gross and something around the lines of that. And, um, he, as I remember said something around the lines of, you know, you're growing up, like it's normal to question, to explore stuff like that. Maybe not those exact words, but it was something around that. And I just kind of took that as like, okay, like I didn't really have anybody telling me this was wrong. Um, and that definitely played an impact. So I'm very outspoken about parents monitoring their kids' devices. I don't think it's strict. I don't think it's helicopter parenting.

I think it's important. When I was young, I would have thought that. But I wish that I would have had more of that because I think I could have got help a lot. So earlier on. And so you would say to these parents out there who try to be cool parents, you know, so while we got to, you know, I got to let them explore, you know, their own personality, their own feelings, you know, I've got, you know, I don't want to put any boundaries on them that would restrict them. You would take a different approach looking back on those early teen and teen years, right? Absolutely. And I think, I mean, you can go on Snapchat now. I don't really use Snapchat anymore, but you can go on Snapchat and all a kid has to do is scroll to the left and there's new nudity like right there just on cover photos of things and you know tiktok's huge right now and i have just for the purpose of when that post went viral some people have said some things

that i've tried to combat with any source i can and i am looking at what is on TikTok being shown to kids and I want to throw up like it's disgusting um and a lot of it the agenda of the LGBTQ is on TikTok so like people are really pushing identity and pronouns and and you know be you and be who you are and it doesn't matter and I think the biggest problem with the lgbt community is no one takes responsibility for any of their actions it's like oh well i just i'm this way so i can do this and because i'm this way my truth justifies it and that's just not how that's not how that works and there's a lot of people claiming christianity that just that just aren't acting that way at all well Well, there certainly is a war on Christians, Christian beliefs.

And I know that you were engulfed in the lifestyle. Your friends were part of the LGBTQ community, went to a liberal college, which I particularly believe are indoctrination centers that just kind of solidify that kind of agenda. Now, how was the LGBTQ? I saw some of their reactions to your viral post that went out and I couldn't imagine, you know, it's, it's, it's awful. You know, they can't just be happy for you. You're like, oh wow, she broke free and found Jesus. No, they have to attack you. How was overall the LGBTQ's reaction to you breaking free

and following Jesus Christ? Oh man, that's a pat question. There's like thousands of comments and I have barely got through any of them. But before this went viral, there was actually a thing at Lee University that went viral. There was a huge war because that's a Christian college actually moved to Lee. And then there was a war that came up this year that just kind of like an uprising of the LGBT community at a Christian conservative college and so I was kind of speaking on that too but oh my goodness the I have never received messages like that and comments like that, which was to be expected. But it was bad. Like, I, I was fine. Like, I knew they were just upset. But I think it's so interesting that a group and a community

of people who is supposed to be loving and accepting and tolerant, the second that you disagree with them, you know, all hell breaks loose. So it just, it's, it was interesting. People were trying to tell me that, you know, I'm still, you know, a lesbian and people are trying to sign me up for dating sites and, and making memes about me and stuff like that. And it, it, it was, I got a whole, you know, diverse group of reactions from it that were mostly negative. You had mentioned that now. I mean, I actually lived in Cleveland, Tennessee for a little while, so I was able to witness that firsthand. But I saw that there was an LGBTQ kind of community building there attending the university, very liberal.

A lot of people there would go to like the Hillary Clinton rallies. I knew I remember that specifically. Now, like, are you seeing more and more of that at the Christian colleges now? Is that students or is that partially also profess? Are we looking at Marxist indoctrination coming into the Christian colleges now? I would absolutely say yes to that. I think it started with the students and at the Lee University situation was, it started kind of through, it was at a chapel and a chapel session kind of went wrong. And then it blew up on this Facebook group that had over 6,000 people, you know, Lee alum, Lee parents, Lee professors, Lee students. And, um, yeah, it was students. And then you started to see professors backing these students, which shocked

all of us because this is a conservative, for the most part, Christian school. And, um, there were so many issues with that in and of itself. And Lee is trying to deal with that now. But the president of Lee has done an amazing job. I got to have lunch a couple times with him, and I've got to know him really well. And he's really trying to hold the foundation of biblical teaching there. We've discussed and inquired with you about what the LGBTQ community said to you. What have you been able to say to them? Have you been able to be a witness to people in that former life, people you knew? Maybe you didn't lose, let's say, friendships per se, but maybe you were able to use those relationships,

some of them at least, to share the gospel. Is that true? Yeah, absolutely. That's been one of the most encouraging parts of all of the negativity. It's all worth it. It's hard to engage with people on a forum of comments, you know, but there's been a lot of people who have like viciously attacked in direct messages and text if to really try and speak truth. And, you know, I can only say my testimony once and someone hears it and then they either believe it or they don't. And so just being able to really, you know, not get riled up is a huge thing. Just be able to talk calmly to them and be like, hey, this is my story. And I'm not judging you for where you are, but there's so much more freedom on this side. Like I thought I would be happy and I thought I would be joyful and free and all of these things when I came out and I was the exact opposite. And I know that that's a constant thing in the community is they fake it and they're not happy. And so, um, a lot of the response. So I just really try to give them Jesus. And I really try to be a light. I'm really careful about what I say. I've been called, you know, a murderer. I've been called hateful.

Wow. I've been called, you know, transphobic and homophobic, and I've been blamed for people's suicides in that community. And, um, so I just really try to be careful and, and, and I really pray for the people that come at me. That's hard to do consistently, but I try. And there's been so many people, which can be easily drowned out with thousands of comments, but so many people who have just admitted to me things that are similar to my story. And they're like, I don't want to do this anymore. So I've been able to pray with those people and talk to those people. And that's been a this anymore. So I've been able to pray with those people and talk to those people. And that's been a huge blessing.

So I think God's up to something in all this. But my last question to you, we're called by the Great Commission to be evangelists of the gospel of the kingdom. We go out in all the world and preach the gospel of the kingdom. We're learning from each other. Brothers and sisters in Christ,

we're strengthening each other let's let's hear your pitch what would you say you're about to go to an elevator someone that clearly is in in that lifestyle they got pink hair you you you just know okay you know okay but you got 30 seconds with them you got 30 seconds of them five floors up what do you say to them mara that's a good question wow i think i would just look at them and i would say i this is kind of like basic but i would say are you happy and not unhappy in a world sense but are you like okay with your life like are you content does what you do bring you joy and is it pleasing to your soul like are you okay and um I think if someone was honest in that community they would say no and so from there I think I would just tell them what the other side has to offer and

that the world you know you my favorite verse in the Bible is Job 1 21 says, naked, I came from my womb and naked, I will depart. The Lord gives and the Lord takes away. Blessed be the name of the Lord. And that's like the verse I cling to. And I think the things that matter in this world don't matter. Like, you know, so when we die, um, all we have is one most important, our relationship with Christ. And how did we treat people and what did we do with the time we had? And I think the majority of people in that community couldn't really give a lot, you know, to stand in, in judgment on the day they die of, what did I do for the, to glorify the kingdom?

And not that we do those things to you know better or not we don't do that to say look at me you know all the glory goes to the lord but you just are full like i've never been happier and i hate i don't really like the word happy but because it's been distorted joy it's okay to have right so joy yeah i think i've never been more joyful. I've never been more content. I still struggle with being a human, you know, so it's still a thing, but it's so much better on this side. And I think, um, when we have that, we, we live that way. So yeah, you know, we all, I guess I would kind of say that. Yeah. And it's like, you know, God didn't call us to be happy. Unfortunately, he calls us to struggle all the way to the end.

Look, we're supposed to have joy. Yeah, we are supposed to have joy. The joy in the journey. Yeah, joy in the journey, yes. But, you know, it is a struggle. It is. And, you know, Satan retaliates. He does not want to let people like Mariah go.

You know what I'm saying? When he has them in his grips. And I'm so glad that you broke free. I'm so glad that you are experiencing the joy and the true freedom of Jesus Christ. You know, we overcome by the blood of the lamb and the power of our testimony. You keep telling your testimony. You keep being a loud voice for Jesus and what he has done for you in a world that wants young kids to raise young kids up in a lifestyle that makes them confused, that makes them ashamed. You are a light and you are a voice and you keep being a loud voice.

Mariah, we will be praying for you. Thank you so much for coming on today. God bless you and we appreciate you. Thank you, Mariah. Saved by grace. She's awesome. Isn't she awesome? It's a story of courage.

Yes. It's a story of faith. And we were talking about courage the day before the program. We don't toot our own horn. It's not story of courage. It's a story of faith. We were talking about courage the day before the program. We don't toot our own horn. It's not about us. There are people out there in the world, the body of Christ, that are doing courageous things every single day that the secular media

is never gonna talk to, never gonna highlight. We have to reset our minds. You know, there's a great reset underway in the world. Matt's creating the greatest reset to talk about what Christ is doing. We've got to find those ambassadors for the kingdom that are going out there. And you know, we learn from each other.

Every time we speak to someone like that, I learn a new way to share the gospel. Amen. Well, the Bible says in Isaiah 41, 10, Fear not, for I am with thee. Be not dismayed, for I am thy God. I will strengthen thee. Yea, I will help thee.

I will uphold thee in the time of trouble. And it's encouraging to see the Lord upholding someone like Mariah, who has gone through a deliverance and transformation and is still being transformed on a day-to-day basis by the Word of God. Let the Lord find us busy. Let the Lord find us with our hands on the plow. We have to be active. we have to be using that breath that was given to us

by the Lord through Adam and I get, that's what this show is for, this show that's what this Godcast is for, we come out here to do this please come back tomorrow we have more to share bless you We'll be back tomorrow if you have more to share. Bless you.. The preceding program was made possible by the faithful prayers and financial support of listeners just like you.
