Up next. How woud you know

0:02

called part of the If

0:05

brutal honesty makes you uncomfortable, then

0:07

this podcast isn't for you, because

0:10

today you're going to hear some straight talk from someone

0:12

who isn't afraid to tell it like it is. Passionate,

0:15

blunt, conservative, patriotic. The

0:17

outspoken Lieutenant Governor of North Carolina,

0:19

Mark Robinson is in the House,

0:22

a rising superstar in the Republican Party

0:25

who has taken a GOP by storm.

0:27

This is outllowed with Gianno called well, Lieutenant

0:33

Governor, is really a pleasure to

0:35

have you. I've learned about

0:38

you recently and I follow your Facebook

0:40

page and I've been seeing the videos, and I

0:42

get really excited and fired up when

0:45

I hear you speak. So thank you for all

0:47

you're doing, not just for the party but the country.

0:49

Well, thank you for having me here. We appreciate

0:52

all those all those kind words. We certainly

0:54

do. Thank you absolutely. Before

0:56

we get into politics and the issues of the day,

0:58

I want to talk to you about your upbringing. I

1:01

know you face adversity with an abusive

1:03

father and you found yourself in foster care. Tell

1:06

us what life was like growing up, Where

1:08

were you raised, how did you overcome a rough childhood?

1:11

Well? Uh, born

1:14

and raised in Greensboro, North Carolina.

1:16

Uh, my childhood

1:18

when I looked back on my childhood, I had a happy childhood.

1:21

But it was right with all those things.

1:23

My father was never abusive towards

1:25

me or my siblings, but he was very

1:28

abusive towards my mother. Uh.

1:30

They had a very contentious, very violent relationship.

1:34

He was an alcoholic. Uh. And

1:36

he died when I was around twelve. When

1:38

well, when I was twelve, I was in the fifth grade

1:41

when he died my mom. That left

1:43

my mom with five

1:45

children in total. All of us were in school range

1:48

from twelfth grade the first grade. UM,

1:51

and so uh. You know,

1:53

she had a choice. She could either go to work or

1:55

or or go to the go towards welfare.

1:57

She chose to work. She was a custodian.

2:00

She did that for a number, for gosh,

2:03

for almost thirty years. She was a coustodian. And

2:05

that's how she took care of us. And I saw her

2:07

have her priorities in order and do things

2:09

on that custodian salary that the people would

2:12

say was impossible, but she did it. And

2:14

that taught me a great deal about what

2:17

it takes to make it in life. What it takes to make it in

2:19

life, It's for you to go out and earn your

2:21

living and four your destiny. And

2:24

that's what my mom did, and that's the example

2:26

from shows. She also had a very strong

2:28

faith in God, which I you know, I sustained

2:30

her as well, so uh the

2:33

primary source for strength as a matter of fact.

2:35

So uh that was that was what my offbering

2:37

was like like and that's what I learned. And this is

2:39

uh as like I said, it's what helped leave me to where

2:41

I am right now. Wow. And

2:43

the faith in God, I think is the critical

2:46

point. And I've seen you talk about that and viral

2:49

clip after viral clip about how how

2:51

how you believe and why you believe and

2:54

why you believe this is the best country in an entire

2:56

world and how God Jesus

2:58

Is really had his hands on America.

3:01

Can you expound on that please? Well,

3:04

you know people people don't like

3:06

to admit it. You know a lot of people that don't

3:08

like to admit the fact that the reason why uh,

3:11

this country is has been blessed because

3:14

people pray for God to bless this nation.

3:16

We say it in our songs, you know, we say

3:19

it in our in our founding documents.

3:21

We we say that every everywhere, everywhere you turn

3:23

around. We always give God credit for

3:25

for what he's done and what he can do and what he will

3:27

do. And I think because of that, he hears it

3:29

and he blessed. And of course we're not perfect

3:31

people. We're not perfect people. We're not a

3:34

perfect nation. We never have been, and we don't claim

3:36

to be. But we ultimately we know who

3:38

we is we have to answer to, and

3:40

we know who it is that oh that we owe the credit

3:42

to, and that's who, that's who we give that credit to. And

3:45

as far as it's being the greatest nation on earth,

3:47

you know, I don't see Mary.

3:49

I've read this this this morning on social media,

3:51

and it's true. America is so great that

3:53

even the people that hate it, hate America,

3:55

won't leave. That's how great America

3:58

is. The people who claim to hate it leads. Uh,

4:01

this is this is still the greatest snakes on our still

4:04

a place where you can make dreams come true. And

4:06

uh, that's I mean, that's just the way it is. The

4:08

proof is, like they say, the proof is in

4:11

the Putt indeed it is. And

4:14

like I mentioned before, viral

4:16

video after viral video, you

4:19

really arrived on the national scene

4:21

for a lot of people in two thousand and eighteen,

4:25

UM, and it was because of a viral

4:27

video of you defending gun rights in the second

4:29

Amendment of the meeting at the Greensboro City Council

4:32

And that got you noticed. And

4:34

from what I understand from watching the interview with

4:37

you and Governor Mike Huckleby,

4:39

UM, it got over two hundred million views,

4:42

he said, I

4:44

mean from

4:46

there, I mean you talked about what

4:48

people told you you could do in terms of creating a brand

4:51

for yourself and making a lot of

4:53

money because you're this you know, this fresh

4:55

star before millions of people,

4:58

but you chose to serve instead. And what got

5:00

you into politics. I've been

5:02

politically aware, what I call politically

5:05

aware for many many years. That

5:07

started way back and uh

5:09

the mid nineties, I guess. Uh.

5:12

I had a friend who uh

5:14

challenged me to think better and uh,

5:17

you know, to do my own research. And I

5:19

did that and once I did, I found out that I

5:21

was a conservative and I always had been a conservative.

5:24

And then I started looking at the two parties,

5:26

the Republican Party Democratic Party, and

5:29

learning about the differences between the platforms

5:31

and the differences between the histories of the two

5:33

parties, and of course I logically fell

5:35

on the on the right hand side of the Republican

5:37

Party. And uh so i'd like

5:40

to tell folks, you know, uh uh,

5:42

being involved in politics is not it's

5:44

not really well, you have you

5:47

have an option, but here are the options.

5:49

You can make the determination of how you're

5:52

governing and who governed you or somebody else

5:54

can make that determination. And somebody else

5:56

is making that determination, it's probably

5:58

not going to turn out good for you. The founders

6:01

made this country so that the people could decide

6:03

who who it is that would govern them.

6:06

And when we don't take that responsibility series

6:08

we end up with people who don't have our best interests

6:11

at hard. We need to make sure that we we take

6:13

it serious and politics needs to be something we

6:15

all need to be involved. And that's like

6:17

I said that about involved, absolutely,

6:20

And I love your story reminds me of

6:23

my own, which I talked about my book Taking for Granted.

6:25

I love to send you a copy of that. But yeah,

6:28

just learning the distinctions between the parties and

6:30

realizing that oftentimes, especially

6:32

as black conservatives. I'm not

6:34

sure what you're experiencing upbringing was,

6:36

but mine on the South Side of Chicago. I realized

6:38

quickly after our research the two party systems

6:41

in the history that we largely have been

6:43

lied to about the Republican Party

6:45

and the history Democrats have did such

6:47

a brilliant marketing job to make people

6:49

think that the Republican Party was just a racist

6:52

party. They created slavery, Jim Crown, all

6:54

these other things, and to find out none of

6:56

that was true was actually the Democratic Party was

6:58

pretty astounding to me and made me really,

7:01

uh question the people that were around

7:03

me. Did you have the same experience, Yeah,

7:06

well, uh, honestly, yeah. I

7:08

mean, you know, when you really look at the stories

7:10

and you just you're just blown away by

7:12

how much misinformation there is out

7:14

there. You know, Uh, just

7:17

one small thing you could take

7:19

out of that you take a look at, uh,

7:22

or something like the epithet that's thrown

7:24

Uncle Tom. People throw

7:26

that as an epithet and then and

7:28

and many of the people that use that word

7:30

don't have a clue is that where it came from.

7:33

They don't understand anything about

7:35

who the character Uncle Tom was in the book

7:38

and what he did, and they don't

7:40

they don't understand it all the Uncle Tom with somebody

7:42

who sacrificed his life because he

7:44

refused to turn away,

7:46

to turn turn over to runaway

7:49

girls would run away from the horrible master

7:52

Simon legree. They don't have a clue

7:54

that in that book that he was beaten to death

7:56

by two other black slaves

7:58

who would do anything to it, including

8:01

beating a good man to death at

8:03

the behalf of Simon mcgree.

8:05

The evil matter when you read

8:07

that book and you understand that book, it's one

8:09

of the books that opened my eyes up more than anything

8:12

about what you just said about how the Democratic

8:14

Party and the leftists have turned this entire

8:17

thing around. You can see a micro calls

8:19

him of all their lives and coming to understand

8:21

what that book and that name represents.

8:23

And that's just one example of the way

8:26

that that folks have been lied to and this whole

8:28

thing has been turned upside down. Only say it and

8:30

and of course we're talking about from a historic

8:32

perspective, but those lives continue today.

8:35

And I want to play this audio for

8:37

you that a majority

8:39

with James Clapporn was just on

8:42

MSNBC, and he was talking about

8:44

the funded police movement, which we know a

8:46

lot of progressives folks just generally

8:48

on the left said was the best

8:51

way in terms of creating uh

8:54

more fairness and equality when it comes

8:56

to policing in America, and

8:58

um, what they believe is that the best

9:00

route forward. If you would just take

9:02

a listen, I want to get your response. On the other side,

9:05

defunded police is a non start,

9:07

even the black people. And if you don't think that's

9:09

true, then look at the results

9:11

of what just happened in York sitting this election.

9:14

So the proof is in the pudding. I

9:17

know what I'm talking about. I talked to people

9:19

every day and defund

9:21

the police. Is it cool

9:24

around the Democratic Party? What

9:26

do you What do you think about that? From the majority

9:28

with Clyburn, it just goes

9:30

to show you how ludicrous the statement is

9:33

defunded police. You know,

9:35

even if this guy, a progressive Democrat,

9:37

is saying it's hard for you know, it's again.

9:40

You know, I've told some ideas, uh

9:43

everything that the left has it

9:45

counted. They've cut counted climate

9:47

change. All the predictions they've made

9:49

about climate change have not come true. They

9:52

they are now their their accounting critical

9:54

race theory. We know those things are not true.

9:57

There now they now counted defunding

9:59

the police. We see the horrible effects of that. Everything

10:02

that they tell it's almost like a

10:04

collection of I told you so. We

10:07

conservatives were screaming from the raptors.

10:10

If we contained this anti police rhetoric,

10:12

we're gonna see crime go through

10:15

the route. It's gonna go through the roof.

10:17

And what has happened. Crime has

10:19

gone through the roof. So you

10:22

know, Uh, it's it's no. It's actually

10:24

shocking to hear him say that. Uh,

10:27

admit that in public, but he's absolutely

10:29

right. It's just it is one of the dumbest

10:31

things, uh, one of

10:34

the top five dumbest things I think there's

10:36

ever been proposed, uh,

10:38

in in my lifetime and possibly in

10:40

the history of this nation. We're talking to

10:42

Mark Robinson and Lieutenant Governor of North Carolina

10:44

and rising superstar within

10:47

the GOK. We've got much more with

10:49

him right after a quick break. You

11:03

know what's interesting to me, and I gotta tell you,

11:05

I'm gonna be just straight up honest with you.

11:08

There's you know, obviously a lot of figures

11:10

and figures in are in the Republican Party,

11:13

but you, in my opinion, you

11:15

and Rhon de Santa's are the most

11:18

exciting two people

11:20

in the Republican Party, and I think have the most

11:22

rolls, robust opportunity

11:25

for the party. I listened to speeches of yours

11:27

and it sounds like a Baptist preacher. And

11:30

I'm gonna tell you, I think that the words

11:32

in which you use, in the way in which you disseminate

11:35

your message is one in which would

11:37

resonate with all coalitions,

11:39

all constituencies, black folks, white

11:41

folks, expanding folks, whatever. You're just a

11:43

truth teller. Why do you think your stars

11:46

is rised so quickly in

11:49

the in the GOP and national and nationally

11:52

it's a matter of people have been hungry for

11:54

somebody to stand up and just tell the truth. And

11:57

too many people are afraid to stand up and tell the

11:59

truth. Know we we see it all the time. We

12:01

see folks that you know you you know

12:03

what's right. You don't people know exactly

12:06

what's right. Then you have a room full of people

12:08

sitting there in in a in a collect

12:10

why it would be a school board, whether it be a city

12:12

council, whether it be Congress, and

12:15

everybody in the room will know what the right thing

12:17

to do is, and nobody will stand

12:19

up and do the right thing. That's

12:21

what we need in this country. We need people that are unafraid

12:24

to stand up and just tell the truth. And sometimes,

12:26

yeah, the truth hurts and the truth sounds

12:29

ugly, but sometimes just needs to be

12:31

told. And that's what people want to hear. They want to

12:33

hear somebody tell the truth. Now, I've

12:35

told people several times, you know that my my goal

12:37

is not to get elected in any office. That's

12:39

not the ultenate goal. Ulten and goals

12:41

to leave people with the truth and let people

12:43

here here the truth. And

12:46

if they don't want to, they want to reject the truth hunts,

12:48

and so be it, so be it reject

12:50

the truth. But that's that's that's gonna

12:52

that's gonna be what I'm gonna tell people all the time, and

12:55

that it turns out that that's

12:57

what the majority of people out there they want to

12:59

hear, soolutely it is. Now, you're

13:01

lieutenant governor. Now in North Carolina,

13:03

the governor is a Democrat. You're well

13:06

respected. Now tell

13:08

me what what what why did you choose to run

13:10

for Lieutenant governor. Well, uh,

13:12

we looked at running a lot of officers,

13:15

a lot of different officers, and when

13:17

we looked at this office in particular, we thought

13:19

it was you know, it suited our skill set

13:22

just right. What the job entails

13:24

uh uh you know a lot of what this

13:26

job entails is having what they call a bully pull

13:28

pit to be able to push, uh,

13:31

push back against things and push for things

13:33

that you uh, that you stand for. And

13:35

we said, hey, you know, we're pretty

13:37

good at that. I think we'll we'll, we'll, we'll,

13:39

we'll try to step into this role. And so far we've

13:41

done well at it. Uh and we

13:44

uh, we're gonna continue to try to do well at

13:46

because you know, the

13:48

states it's doing well right

13:50

now, doing very good. But I believe this state

13:52

can do a whole lot better in the future.

13:55

But I think what it's gonna take to do a whole lot better

13:57

in the future is to continue with the conservative

13:59

prince will that have gotten us to

14:01

this point. And uh so

14:04

we decided to get in there and help these conservatives

14:06

here in North Carolina. They helped fight to make this state even

14:09

better. Yeah. Absolutely, Now

14:11

I tell you people don't just love you, they're

14:13

genuinely excited about your political future.

14:16

So with that being said, what is your future in

14:18

the GOP? Do you have any aspirations

14:21

beyond lieutenant governor at this point?

14:23

Well, we're sitting down with our folks

14:25

and we're talking about what we think the next step

14:27

is the best step, next best

14:29

step will be. We have to determined

14:32

that yet, But as soon as we do, we're

14:34

gonna let the people know and we're

14:36

gonna try to rally wherever it is we need

14:38

a rally to get to that point. Uh.

14:41

But we like said, we have not made that decision

14:43

firmly yet, but we will here pretty soon. Okay,

14:45

so not firmly. But I

14:48

have to ask, and I'm sure a lot of people are

14:50

asking you this question, what

14:52

about if not the top

14:54

job that being president, would consider being

14:56

someone's running mate if they asked you, maybe

14:58

round the sentence if he was to choose to run, Well,

15:01

you know, right now, nothing is off the table.

15:04

What I want to do is I want to go to a place where

15:06

we can be the most effective for the causes

15:08

that we believe in. And if that should

15:10

happen to be, no matter what that

15:12

that where that place might be.

15:15

We're all for something of that, of

15:17

that nature. We would evaluate it and we

15:19

would feel like that, Uh, it was

15:21

good with me and good with my family and good with

15:23

God. We go that direction. But what

15:25

we want to do is find out a place where we're gonna be absolute

15:28

most effective. Absolutely, And I can

15:30

appreciate that. And I'm glad that you're

15:33

thinking about that because there's a lot of folks.

15:35

I'm sure we put a lot of a

15:37

lot of time and energy behind your

15:39

candidacy, with with whatever role you

15:41

may choose, I want to switch

15:43

gears and move the President Biden.

15:45

You said last month that President biden Is administration

15:49

are turning America into a socialist

15:52

hell whole, and you urge fellow

15:54

Republicans to run to the

15:56

trouble. What did you mean by that? Uh,

15:59

don't arn away from it. Don't run away from

16:01

it, run to it. There's trouble. There's

16:04

you know, we have we have uh,

16:06

we have enemy. We have enemy

16:09

inside our camp. We have a we have an enemy

16:11

that's no longer outside the gate. They

16:13

are inside the wire. They are actively

16:15

working against this nation. I believe to

16:17

bring this nation down, to bring what

16:19

Barack Obama calls UH

16:22

fundamental change to our to

16:24

our system of government, and to our way of life.

16:27

We have to actively go to those

16:29

people and confront those people and

16:31

confront that problem. We have to work

16:33

to make sure we get those people out of office,

16:36

and we have to work to make sure we get people

16:38

in offices that are gonna have this country's best interests

16:40

at our i e. Making sure that capitalism,

16:43

our constitution, and all the good things that

16:46

come from and continue to stand in this nation. So

16:48

we need to confront it headlong.

16:50

We do not need to be afraid this whole thing is shrinking

16:52

away and hoping that somebody else to

16:55

do it. That time is over. We gotta step

16:57

up it. We gotta take this calls on them. We gotta be

16:59

the want to do them. Mark, I absolutely agree

17:01

with you. Let's dig into that further after a break.

17:08

What are your thoughts of the current Republican Party,

17:10

Because I'll tell you, you know, Democrats,

17:14

Uh, in spite of their failings

17:16

and all this other stuff in the policy. We

17:18

can talk about the cultural wars, we can talk about any number

17:20

of things. They seem to be kind

17:23

of tough in a way that they all

17:25

lie cheat steal, it doesn't matter,

17:27

and they'll look you in their face and say, oh,

17:29

no, Republicans want to defund the police,

17:32

not us. Like it's like, no, Republicans

17:34

were the party of slavery, not us. No, like

17:36

they would say all these different things, which

17:38

they just said something three months ago or maybe

17:41

even the day before. They don't have a problem

17:44

doing any of those things. And we got

17:46

some Republicans. I think back to the Hunter

17:48

Biden situation. Hunter Biden using an

17:50

inn word. We see what happened with um

17:53

the congressman when he said something about

17:55

white supremacy to the New York Times, when the

17:57

white supremacy become a bad thing,

18:00

nationalism or something like that he said. Anyway,

18:02

they stripped him of his comedian assignments, essentially

18:05

put him out the party. Hunter Biden.

18:08

You know, no no comments from the White

18:10

House, no comments from any Democratic leader.

18:12

You see Sheldon white House, the senator,

18:15

Senator Sheldon Whitehouse belonging to

18:17

a quote, as it was reported, all

18:20

white social club, but white only. That's

18:22

what it was called, a white only social club. And

18:24

they won't say anything about it. But you know, Republicans,

18:28

we gotta be do the right thing. Put folks

18:30

out the party, and you know, they can

18:32

do and say whatever they want. What is

18:34

the party need to do? And that's right, the

18:36

right thing to do. Let me comment on that. But

18:39

what is it that the Republican Party needs

18:41

to do in this day and time when you've got so many

18:43

lives coming from the left and also

18:45

the liberal media who perpetrate those same

18:47

lives. They have to be bold

18:49

and telling the truth, just like President Trump was

18:51

President Trump over Frank Stamp to tell the truth.

18:54

That's why people love. There are too many

18:56

folks who, uh

18:58

say, well, you know, we shouldn't say that

19:00

because that will have the wrong kind of tone. Look,

19:03

how do you call somebody a liar? If

19:06

they're somebody is a proven liar.

19:08

The only way to call that person a liar effectively

19:11

is to say, hey, you're a liar. You

19:14

know, if somebody is a proven bigger

19:16

and has proven it time and time again that

19:18

they would have said bigger at things, and

19:21

if push bigger at policy, how do

19:23

you call that person the biggert? You say, hey,

19:25

this person is a biggert who pushed bigger at

19:27

policies. It's time for

19:29

for for conservatives to stop being timid

19:31

with the truth. I say it like this, we

19:34

gotta be as bold with the truth

19:36

as they are with their lives, and often

19:39

times we are not. We've kept

19:41

to around things, and we don't want to attack. We

19:43

don't want to punch, and be quite

19:45

frankly, we don't want to kick. Sometimes

19:48

we need to do all all of that and more

19:51

because there are people out there right now are

19:53

doing things that are absolutely

19:56

egregious. These people out of here to the pushing CRT

19:59

and pushing these on the police. And I've

20:01

already openly claimed to be so, and

20:03

already openly proudly for claim to be

20:05

socialists and tell us that they want to

20:07

change the minds of our children, and tell us they

20:10

want to bring the country down. We need to fight

20:12

those folks with everything that we have, and those people

20:14

that are not doing it should be ashamed themselves.

20:16

I can agree with that. I appreciate

20:18

that sentiment, and and thank

20:21

you for mentioning CRT also known as critical

20:23

race theory for those who may not know, I

20:25

want to ask you another question about

20:27

a statement you made last month. You said the following,

20:30

the government cannot give the American dream,

20:32

but the government will give you as false hope,

20:35

and that will give you a nightmare. The American

20:37

dream only comes through hard work, stead fastness,

20:40

and standing up and controlling your

20:42

own destiny, not allowing the

20:44

government to do that, but doing

20:46

it yourself. I agree with

20:48

that message wholeheartedly. What can be done

20:51

to push more Black Americans to fully

20:53

embrace this message and stop

20:56

voting for the big government Democrats and

20:58

start voting for conservatives. Of things

21:00

we can do is, you know, we could might remind

21:02

folks of their of their history. You

21:04

know, it's funny when

21:07

things in this nation were at their worst

21:10

for black people. Black people

21:12

were at their best when we

21:14

were in our own neighborhoods. Uh,

21:16

and we were confining those neighborhoods by segregation.

21:19

When we were on our own schools and we were confined

21:21

to those schools by segregation. Uh.

21:23

We had uh homes

21:27

with two two parents. We

21:29

had uh doctors,

21:31

lawyers. Uh. We had we were

21:33

building schools, we were building we built

21:35

churches, we built whole communities.

21:38

Uh. Those trends started

21:41

to change once we turned our power

21:43

over to the federal government and start believing

21:46

that the federal government was in control

21:48

of our destiny, our fortunes

21:50

started to change the single

21:53

parenthood start going through the roof. UH,

21:56

Crime in our neighborhoods start going through

21:58

the roof, Our education numbers start dropping

22:00

dramatically. UH. In order to get

22:02

those things back, we've got to understand that we

22:05

are not to rely on the federal government. We

22:07

are to rely on each

22:09

other, on our families, on our communities.

22:12

Sure, the federal government has a role to play

22:14

because they set they set the rules,

22:16

they make the rules, so to speak,

22:19

and they're supposed to be the guardians of our constitution

22:21

to keep our freedoms. But the

22:24

real question is not what the federal government

22:26

will do for you, is what will you do with

22:28

the rights that you have. That's the real

22:30

question, and that's what we've got to get

22:33

back to, not even what you can do for

22:35

your country, really because we want to do

22:37

it for our country. But I believe that the best

22:39

thing that you can do for this country,

22:42

the best thing you can do for this country, the best

22:44

thing you can do for your state, your

22:46

your your your city, and your neighborhood

22:49

and your family, is by understanding

22:51

that you have to do what's right with

22:53

your You have to do what's right

22:56

with your rights, and if you do

22:58

that, Uh, I think that we

23:00

get folks to to really believe in that, do

23:02

that. I think that's how we get back to that good place

23:05

we were wanting. Now, before

23:07

I let you go and thank you for that, for sharing

23:09

that with me or with us, rather

23:12

before I let you go, I know you're you're a man of

23:14

faith. You've been vocal about it. I

23:16

want to ask you just two

23:19

questions. Here's a two part question. I want to know

23:22

what role does your faith playing your life

23:24

and in your politics? And

23:26

does it concern you that it

23:28

seems to be that our country is becoming increasingly

23:31

secular and outright hostile to

23:33

faith. Well, you

23:35

know, you know, wisdom,

23:38

Wisdom comes from from from faith.

23:41

Wisdom comes from God. Where where

23:43

there's no God, there's no real wisdom. That's

23:45

bottom line. Where there is

23:48

no God, there's no wisdom. Because

23:50

the very first step in in in in wisdom

23:53

is having a fear of God. That's the

23:55

very first that's the very first step in with So

23:58

where there is no there's old faith in God,

24:00

there's no wisdom. And I'm convinced to that you can see

24:02

it in the chaos. Has been bread in

24:04

our school system that has pushed God out of the

24:06

public square, which leads me to the second

24:09

part that the more we continue to push God,

24:11

in the principles of God, out

24:13

of the public square, out of politics,

24:15

out of education, out of mass media,

24:17

out of out of all of our businesses, we're

24:20

just gonna see more and more chaos.

24:22

Never in my lifetime, but I would have thought

24:24

that human beings would be confused about

24:26

whether or not somebody's a man or woman. But

24:29

here we are, and while we're there, we're there

24:31

because people simply refuse to acknowledge

24:33

God's creation, simple creations.

24:36

There are men and there are women,

24:38

and people refuse to acknowledge that. And because

24:41

of that, we're now living in the age of chaos

24:44

right again. Well,

24:46

you know what I want to tell you.

24:48

I thank you for for giving us

24:50

24:52
