Rick Green: President Trump may call off additional strikes against Iran
>> Rick Green: Welcome back to The Core with Walker Wildmon and Rick Green. I'm Rick Green, America's Constitution coach. Thanks for joining me today. Walker's got you Monday, Wednesday, Friday. I'm with you on Tuesdays and Thursdays. And right off the bat, phone number is 8885-8988-4088-8589-8840. In just the last few minutes, it looks like President Trump is calling off the additional strikes against Iran. So not sure what's happening. Maybe discussions, are going better. As we said Tuesday, the problem for the President right now is who do you talk to? So he's having to deal with all these factions and try to get each of those factions to agree to whatever the deal is. And then of course we know this is a regime that's not going to stick to the deal in the long run. But as we mentioned on Tuesday, it is, very possible and perhaps even the best game plan to get a deal done. Now that to At least deals with the two big issues, keeping the Straits open and making sure that they don't have the ability to get a nuclear weapon. If he can win on those two issues, he can claim victory, move forward into the, into the midterms, make sure that Israel's allowed to do whatever they got to do to protect themselves. That should be, unfortunately have a lot of people infected with the anti Israel virus in their brain and they're not thinking straight. And so they actually cheer against a nation that is the most like America of any nation in the Middle east and should be the nation that we cheer for. But unfortunately, that same spirit that, causes people just to not be able to think rationally, has Infected a lot of people from quote, unquote, our side. People that used to be raised, rational used to be for a nation being able to defend themselves and exist. And unfortunately, now are cheering for Iran, of all people. So anyway, not sure, just saw that headline as we were going live. Not sure what all the details are on that, but very, very interesting to watch. I know we, you know, had an awful lot of strikes last night and then, limited ones the night before, I think. you know, one of the, one of the reporters I watched said that President Trump was planning to significantly increase that even, tonight. So maybe it's working, maybe it's moving them to finally, finally do a deal. You know, my, my, my position on this has, has been the same all along. I would love to see Iran become a, once again a Persian nation that is a blessing to Israel and to the rest of the world. If you think back throughout history and even going all the way back to Esther and biblical stories, I don't, you know, that's not beyond God. That's not beyond what God could do. Absolutely could be done. You look to At even what Iran was like in, you know, before this Islamic regime took over 47 years ago, you had a nation that was, you know, a monarch, but, to At least lived in relative freedom and had, you know, economic prosperity and, you know, all of those things that you would like to see. And there's no reason they can't go back other than back to what I said to At the very beginning of this. Unless the soil to At this point, that there's not enough good soil left, that after 47 years you basically educated out and murdered out and stamped out, the vestiges of a free people that desire those things. You can unfortunately, you can essentially train a people into tyranny. That's what happens in communism. It's what happens in any tyrannical system. People get used to it. That's why that line in the Declaration I love so much from Jefferson, as a reminder to our people to not get lazy and lackadaisical, are just trained into tyranny. We have soft tyranny in America, as Mark Levin wrote about in his book Ameritopia. But the, you know, the line in the Declaration is, it simply says that mankind is more disposed to suffer while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they have become accustomed. And that, you know, if you put that in extreme tyrannical terms like Iran, you've Got a people that have become accustomed to the tyranny, not that they wouldn't, you know, somewhere deep down, still want to live in freedom, but when they weigh the cost and the risk of, you know, protesting and being killed and watching people around them, and many of them had to see their friends and family murdered during the initial protest and 50,000 or more of them murdered by their own government. So you can imagine if you don't have weapons, if you don't have the ability to fight back, and you've got some desire to live in freedom, and you try to stand up and then you experience that, well, it's kind of hard to stand up the next time. It's kind of hard to take advantage of the opportunity, to protest. When there's a lull in the tyranny because of America's strikes and Israel's strikes, it's still hard for them, if not impossible. And so they've been essentially conditioned into, a mindset of tyranny and just saying, well, I'd rather be alive. And to At least we know the devil, you know, right, Instead of the devil, you don't. And so that's unfortunately where I think the Iranian, And so the groups that do still have a fire of liberty in them, I guess, are too small or unarmed to launch a, effective enough campaign to throw out this Islamic evil, evil, evil Islamic regime that has done such, horrible things, for so many years, not only to the Iranian people, but to the world. So that's, again, going back. That's what we would love to see. That's still what I think, think is possible. If the God factor, you know, if he wills it and if he, causes certain things to come about that I can't even think of right now or imagine would be possible, then absolutely, they could become a totally different nation. But we're not there. We're not there. And, I think the thing that has surprised a lot of people, including me, is the ability of Iran to withstand the attacks and the carnage and, not, cave. I think they've been able to hold out longer than people like me thought. Now, maybe, you know, maybe Pete Hegseth and President Trump and those in the Situation Room with the intelligence and the information that I don't have. maybe they knew that it would be, likely and possible that this would happen, and so they had contingency plans for it. But what I see to At this point is victory on the most important fronts. And if he gets. If he gets that, then I think it would be smart for him to de. Escalate meeting President Trump, to At least until after the, after the midterms. We'll see. We'll see what happens. Love to hear your thoughts on it. 888-589-8840. That's 888-589-8840.
American Family Radio is broadcasting Flashpoint live from the Patriot Academy campus
And, other news out there. I'm just going to give you a little update on what's going on right here in my backyard in Texas, Constitution City, Texas, with some of the, activities that we have going. We've got a massive, massive event to At the campus starting tonight. If you, if you. I don't know. I always wonder how much crossover I have in the different audiences I get a chance to be a part of. So I don't know how many American family radio listeners also watch Flashpoint, but Flashpoint is a show that I do usually twice a week. It's not always twice a week. Sometimes once a week. Some weeks I miss completely. It's a show hosted by a guy named Gene Bailey. And, M. It's now five nights a week. It started as one night a week during the COVID insanity of 2020 and the elections and the, stolen election and all the things that happened then. It went two nights and three nights, and then in the last couple of months has gone to all five nights, massive show. I am blown away to At the number of people I run into all over the country that say, I saw you on Flashpoint or I watch you on Flashpoint. So they definitely have a big, big audience. They've never been to the campus before to broadcast. Now they had, they did come down. Flashpoint came down. Gene Bailey and some of the team came down for our, our kickoff, our groundbreaking that we did three years ago on April 19, you know, the shot heard around the world in, 1775. Well, we did April 19th as our groundbreaking for, the Patriot Academy campus. Well, now we're finally going to broadcast Flashpoint from the Patriot Academy campus. So I'm telling you, I've got chaos all around me right now, even as I'm broadcasting from the Patriot Academy campus to you here on American Family Radio, the, the House Chamber, if you're, if you're a new listener or you haven't heard me talk about this before. to At Patriot Academy, we built our own Texas house replica. So we have a legislative hall, basically where we conduct these mock legislative sessions for, for students, for pastors, for. For military veterans, for all kinds of groups. And so that chamber that that house chamber has been essentially converted slightly to, be able to broadcast Flashpoint live from the chamber tonight and tomorrow night. And then in other news, to At the Patriot Academy campus, we built out a small portion of our Independence hall replica. So that's one of our big goals here to At Patriot Academy, is to build Independence Hall. I was hoping to have it done by the, July 4th of the beginning of the 250th, 2026, which is just a few weeks away. don't think, but possibly if the Lord wills it and we raise enough money fast enough. but would love to have it built by the end of the 250th, July 4th, 2027. But we're probably like two years away from having it built. However, we built the interior of Independence hall already because we had this incredible guy, Mark Adams, who offered his woodworking school in Indiana to us and gave up a whole week, shut down the school and spent the whole week building out the, all of the paneling, all of the Windsor chairs, the tables, the tablecloths, the curtains, the, the chandeliers. I mean, it was. It was insane what they did in a week. Absolutely amazing. And so I've had that entire build out, just sitting in storage waiting for us to get Independence hall built. Well figured July 4, 2026, the 250th birthday of the nation. Why not get some of that stuff out and build a small portion of the interior of Independence Hall. What most people think of as Independence hall is, is the assembly room. It's where the Constitution and the Declaration were done. You can picture it in your mind right now as I'm talking. It's the green tablecloths. It's the president's chair up there. The Ben Franklin said, I'm been wondering if it's a rising or a setting sun. It's a. It's. You would. You would recognize the iconic room. So we set up that part of it. We put those walls literally in our legislative hall, the president's chair, and just like two or three of the other tables and Windsor chairs. And we're going to let people come in, and it's like you're walking. It's hard to describe, but it's in a corner of our legislative hall, which is huge. And this corner is that just that middle part of the assembly room. And so tonight, when we go live on Flashpoint, we're gonna be able to show people that and say, hey, that's what's coming. That's. We're gonna Build out the entire Independence Hall. But for now, you can see a little, little piece of history for the 250th and walk right into that little piece of history and sign the Declaration of Independence, which we'll do on July 4th here to At the Patriot Academy campus. Speaking of which, if you're interested in joining us, you're welcome to come. Constitution City, Texas, man. Come on July 4th. We're gonna have a big, big party. Be from 5 to 9 on July 4th. So you could fly in, drive in. We're 50 minutes from San Antonio. 50, minutes gate to gate from the airport to our gate, and plenty of hotels. And I don't think we have any cottages left to, to rent on site here to At the campus. But there, there are plenty of hotels and Airbnbs close by. So if you have not made plans for your July 4th celebration of the 250th birthday of the nation, you need to be in Constitution City, Texas. We got Ben Franklin joining us. George Washington will be there giving a speech. I don't know how good he's going to look. I mean, he's got to be, what, 280 years old or so to 90. I don't know. anyway, we'll have George Washington, Ben Franklin, few others, and I'll, of course, be reciting and talking about the Declaration and each of those principles, and then some of our Patriot Institute students as well. Brad Stein will be with us, the comedian that I think is the best in the country. he and I do this thing called Comedy and Constitution. But, he'll be there to speak and share a little bit and, a few other, few other surprises probably. So if you're interested in doing that, go to patriotacademy.com 250th, patriotacademy.com 250 or 250th, and it will take you to the, registration page to join us. great chance to get together.
Have a 250th celebration in your community that could be at your house

Have a 250th celebration in your community that could be to At your house. You don't have to, you know, it doesn't have to be to At the courthouse or some big government building. You could just have a big party to At your house. Hot dogs, you know, have some, some, some good food and some good fireworks. But whatever you do, whether you're Getting together to At your county courthouse or I like the idea of churches doing it because it helps bring the community together and the church be the epicenter of the community, as it should. but wherever you're going to get together with people on July 4th, just a few weeks away, I urge you, I encourage you, get a copy of the Declaration of Independence. Blow it up. We are going to have big foam board blown up copies to At all of our celebrations or just to At least print out a copy and have people read the Declaration and sign it. Have a party where people actually hear the words that we're celebrating, where they don't just have hot dogs and fireworks that are going to fizzle and be gone. They actually study the Declaration of Independence to At least to the extent of reading it and hearing what's actually in there. And then they sign it. They pledge their life, their fortune, their sacred honor to saving this country, to rebuilding liberty. You can be the one to host that in your community. If you go to our website, we give you some ideas on how to do that, some steps. Patriotacademy.com same website 250 all right. Got to take a quick break. I'm Rick Green, America's Constitution coach.

Homeland Security chief says they have located 146,000 missing unaccompanied migrant children
>> Rick Green: Welcome back to At the The Core with Walker Wildmon and Rick Green. I'm Rick Green, America's Constitution coach. Getting back to these headlines, man. All right, first of all, this one, this one's going to be tough to talk about. but I cannot ignore it. So Mark Wayne Mullin is the, you know, new Homeland. Homeland Security chief says that they have located 146,000 missing unaccompanied migrant children so far. And he said that some of these missing kids suffered horrific abuse. Tens of thousands of unaccompanied migrant children located. he said, we have found 146,000 so far. Mullin added that after investigations into the cases, you start hearing the absolute horrific things that took place underneath the prior presidential administration. He said it was either true neglect to At best or criminal to At worst to allow 450,000 kids to go missing throughout our country. Some of these kids claim they were raped 600 to 700 times. I don't care who you are. If you can't stand for law enforcement to go find these kids, who are you? That's our Homeland Security chief. I can't. I can't. Secretary. Sorry. I cannot. I cannot imagine how messed up you have to be, how much Trump Derangement Syndrome. You have to. Have to. If you know these. If you know this and you still impede ICE and Homeland Security and all these others that are trying to find these kids, trying to get rid of the rapists and the murderers and the gang members and drug dealers. I don't know. I can't even comprehend your thinking. Like, how messed up do you have to be to protest ICE knowing that they're going to rescue these kids? It's a huge part of their mission to define these kids and to separate them from these traffickers that Joe Biden let just waltz across our border. Do you realize what the Democrats did for four years in this country by opening our border completely to the worst of the worst criminal element? Now, there's no question good people came as well. Good people that just wanted the American dream, wanted the opportunity. And if I don't have to stand in line, why not walk across and get all of the benefits of being an American without having to, do anything? So, of course, good people, you know, good people came, meaning good people that wanted good things. I guess if you're breaking the law, there's some extent of, okay, you're breaking the law to come here and do that. So are you, are you good? We all do bad things, all right? Won't go down the rabbit hole. But the fact that the border was so easy to come across, the fact that the President of the United States, or to At least his, his, the people that were controlling him, was willing to say to Greg Abbott as a governor and other governors, border state governors, you, you're not even allowed to stop this float. We're going to sue you. We're going to, we're going to sue our own people to stop you from stopping the thugs and the rapists and the murderers from coming across the border into your state. That's what they did for four years. And the numbers are mind boggling how many millions came in and how many of those millions are in fact the worst of the worst from around the world and they're still here. And so here we have, it now have a president who's trying to deport them, get rid of these criminals and even the good people that came over, just basically make them follow the law, can make them go home and reapply and come legally. And then most importantly, find these kids. Find these kids that have suffered horrific abuse, that have been trafficked, easily trafficked as a result of the Joe Biden administration, as a result of the Democrats. What, what, what Alibastucky would call toxic empathy because you got quote unquote religious leaders out there. Oh, they just think they're being nice. They think they're being a good neighbor. They think they're treating the sojourner well. No, you're not. You're, you're, you're allowing the Sojourner to be sex trafficked. You're allowing the Sojourner to face the most horrific abuse that could possibly happen to a sojourner in our land, in our neighborhoods. It's evil. It's evil. And I get, I get, I think I should be righteously angry. I hope I'm being angry and not sinning, but I am angry. I am so angry to At the, to At the horrific abuse that took place and continues to take place to this day because of these, these white women liberals out there stopping ICE and the Homeland Security from rescuing these kids, stopping them from removing the pedophiles. It just makes, it makes no sense whatsoever. And I say shame on you if you are so Trump derangement syndrome that you are anti law enforcement now and you would rather have rapists and murderers and thugs in your neighborhood than Good people. Shame on you. Okay, I better move on from that one or I'm going to get, maybe get too upset.
Carmelo Anthony was 17 when he murdered his classmate
Okay, Carmelo Anthony. So here's this kid. He's an adult. He's, you know, 19. Now he's 17 when he murdered one of his classmates. Found guilty. And, looks like 35 years, without. Okay, let's see. So he. So he does have a chance for parole. So, so once he served half of his sentence, he could get parole. So he's got to do a minimum of 17 and a half years. I would, I would think he probably has to do the 35 years. The parole board would make that decision after 17 and a half years. They, apparently, the judge tried to get the jury to consider sudden passion. but, but they, but they chose to give him, the full 35 years. Okay, now that's not. They could have given 99, I guess, but, but they gave 35, factoring in his age and, and all of those things.
Some of the responses to the murderer being found guilty make you scratch your head
All right, let me, Let me just say this. Another sickening thing. Another. Another thing that makes you wonder, how did people in America get this sick in their thinking? Some of the responses to the murderer actually being found guilty and justice being served make you scratch your head and go, what kind of a country have these people been raised in that they would be so racist that they actually think that the injustice is the fact that this murderer is being sentenced to 35 years all because he's black and, and the victims white? I mean, you watch their threads, you look to At what they're saying, and this is not. Let me be very clear. This is not all blacks in America are all whites in America. This is a certain segment of the population that has been so conditioned to believe in racism, so conditioned to do the opposite of MLK's, judging each other by the content of our character, not the color of our skin. They've been so conditioned to reject that and spit on that that all they do is judge people by the color of their skin. That's all that matters to them. You can quite literally murder someone. And as long as you have the right color of skin when you commit that murder and the other person, the one you murdered has the other color of skin, you're the good guy. We're going to donate to your defense. We're going to. We're going to stand out in the street and rally for you and protest for you and say that if you get convicted and actually have to go to jail, that you're the victim These people have been conditioned to believe this. And when I say these people, I mean red, white, yellow, black and brown. I mean, there are white people that have been conditioned to believe the same thing. They actually have been so brainwashed about slavery and about America, lied to about the American story, and made to hate America based on slavery. Obviously a stupid position because it completely ignores every other nation in the history of mankind. Completely ignores the condition of the world in 1776. Every nation on the planet had slavery in 1776. Completely ignores that America is the only nation to actually fight a civil war to get rid of slavery. So you had white people dying in, in order to free black people, and they ignore all of that. In fact, I just interviewed Ben Carson. I'll share the interview with you probably next week. it hasn't even aired on Wallnua Builders yet. I recorded it for Wallnua Builders. But I was with, with Dr. Carson yesterday. You know, if you've been living under rot and you don't know that Dr. Ben Carson's black, here's this incredible black American who came up from poverty, who became, you know, neurosurgeon secretary in the administration, ran for president. I mean, all the amazing things he's done. One of the most important things I think he'll ever do is what he's doing right now with these kids books, because he's teaching patriotism through these kids books. And this latest one's on specifically about faith of our founding fathers and how that created the greatest nation in the history of the world. I hadn't even planned to go that direction, but he went that direction during our interview, talking about exactly what I just said. These people that hate America because of slavery are completely ignoring our actual history. And then what they do is they take this, this weird view, this, this, this warped view of history, and they indoctrinate young people and they teach them to hate their own nation and to hate anyone that is not the same color of skin that they are. That is the definition of racism. That is racism. And, and so these public schools, these, these, these, some of these churches, you have actual churches, like the church that Barack Obama went to. the church that some of these people grow up in that say, you know, you remember Reverend Jeremiah Wright saying, you know, GD America that he hates America. That's the mentality that has been taught. So I'm not shocked to At all that a, that, that a black kid would, would hate a white kid so much that he would stab him to death and kill him. I am shocked that you have people Like a congressman Jasmine Crockett saying, that the. That the parents of the victim, Metcalf. The parents. What they suffered watching their son be murdered. Losing a son to senseless. Just racist murder. Oh, that's nothing compared to what black women face every day in America. Can you believe she said that? I guess I can, actually, because of the conditioning, because of the brain washing, because. Because of the. The. The division that these people have created. I'm trying to remember the proverb. I think It's a proverb 6, about how awful it is. How God hates a person that creates division in the community. He hates the liar that. You know, it's, Maybe it's nine, but it's. I think it's verse 19 in there. Anyway, how he hates the liar and then he hates the person that's. That's deceiving to cause division the community. Well, I hate what God hates. I love what God loves. And so I hate the fact that these people have caused such a division that they have. They have raised up kids that think it's okay to murder someone of a different color of skin and then cause people to go rally for the murderer and say that that's okay, that it's okay to have one. One person said, you know, they're just trying to make an example of Carmelo Anthony. no, we're trying to make an example of murder. We're trying to say murder is wrong. I don't care. I could care less what color skin the murderer has or the person that's being murdered. The action, the behavior is what matters. This is why the whole hate crimes thing doesn't work. Because now you care more about the color of skin. Like, I don't even think it matters that. That in terms of his sentencing, that he murdered someone, whether or not it was because he hated them for, you know, their color of skin. What matters is he murdered someone. Now we can, as I just did, we can psychoanalyze the situation, say, why did he do it? Because he was raised to believe that that person of another color of skin is not. Doesn't have, you know, human worth and life value as much as he does. And so his anger to At being, you know, pushed or brushed aside or whatever, after being asked 17 times to leave, his anger to At that was enough to justify murder in his own mind. And then for all these pontificators on television and everywhere else to justify his murder and now say that he's the one being oppressed. Folks, that is insanity. That is the opposite of What MLK saw as, as, you know, when he said he had a dream, the dream was not that black people would turn around and have the power and be able to murder and subjugate white people or go back 400 years and, and put white people into slavery or, or, or, you know, somehow, you know, be, able to treat them differently because of their color of the skin. The whole articulation of the dream was that we would judge each other by the content of our character. What does that mean? That means if you murder someone, your character has been shown to be of low content, and you should be sentenced for that. That your treatment is based on your character, the behavior that comes out of your character. That's how we judge each other. And you say, oh, we're not supposed to judge. Yes, we are. The Bible's very clear that you're supposed to be able to discern right from wrong and treat evil as evil and good as good. When you don't judge, you end up treating evil as good and good as evil, which is what these people are trying to do. What Carmelo Anthony did was evil. He murdered a classmate.
Walker Wildmon: Should we stop judging each other based on color of skin
But they're trying to call it good, evil. The judge or the jury in this case did good. They actually did justice. They actually, found him guilty and sentenced him. That's good. These people are actually calling it evil because they have no concept of equal justice under the law that Martin Luther King Jr. Was calling for. They have no concept of treating each other based on the content of our character, not the color of our skin. They are myopic in color of skin. It's all about whether you're black, brown, white, bronze, red, whatever. I mean, what do you do if you're mixed race? How do you, how do you get treated under, under a scenario like that? What if you're. What if you're. I mean, I have black friends that are very light colored. They're very light color of black. I have, I have, you know, white friends that tan really, really well. So they're kind of bronze. You know, I have, you know, Indian friend who is our dean, of our Patriot Institute, that I'm thrilled to have him here running that for us. And he's, you know, you know, he's very bronze or brown or whatever. Why do we, why do we even try to judge each other based on a color of skin? It's. It's absurd. It's absurd and it's anti biblical and it's anti Christian because we're told neither Jew Nor Greek. That we're supposed to have literally blind justice, that we're literally supposed to see each other. Ah. As MLK articulated. And judge each other. Yes. We're supposed to judge based on the content of the character, the behavior that comes out of that character, not based on the color of skin. So I think this trial and this sentencing is, is essentially highlighting. I mean, it's putting a microscope on this racism, that that is. Has been bred not. Not just in the black community, in the left wing community. It has been, it has been literally raised up from childhood to believe that whites are evil and blacks cannot overcome racism. And it is so wrong. Somebody please go read a Thomas Sowell book. Second best economist in our history. Milton Friedman's my favorite. My son Trey keeps trying to convince me otherwise. He says Thomas Sowell's the best economist in our history. I think he's second best, but probably the best, commentator on this topic for sure. And as a black man who was a communist early on, who saw the error of those ways. His voice and his books, just unbelievable. Please, please go read a Thomas Sowell book. All right, we got it. We got to take a break. I'm sorry. I didn't take any calls. 8885-898840-88858-9840. Should we get rid of racism? Should we stop judging each other based on color of our skin? Especially when it comes to voting in our redistricting battles all throughout the country? Right now, we're hopefully going to remove racism. Supreme Court says we should and says that they, they have to, but, you know, we'll see how, how that goes. All right, quick break. We'll be right back. You're listening to to At the The Core with Walker Wildmon and Rick Green.
Preborn network clinics offer free ultrasounds to women facing unplanned pregnancies
>> Bobby Roza: Right now, the voices in our culture are loud, but truth is often silent. And today, preborn needs you to help speak that truth. Women facing unplanned pregnancies are often pressured to act quickly before they have time to pause, breathe, or hear the truth about life, dignity, and hope. But I refuse to be silent, and I'm asking you to join me. to At preborn network clinics, a woman is welcomed with compassion and given a, free ultrasound. She sees the life growing inside her, often for the very first time. And in that sacred moment, fear gives way to clarity. And she's offered something the abortion industry will never provide. The hope of Jesus Christ. This April, our goal is to have 11,000 gospel conversations in preborn network clinics, trusting God to bring the increase as we remain faithful to speak, you can help make that possible by sponsoring ultrasounds. Just $28 provides one ultrasound. $140 sponsors five ultrasounds for mothers in crisis. Every dollar helps save babies and share the hope of the gospel. To donate, dial pound sign 250 and say the keyword baby. That's pound sign 250-B A B Y. Or visit preborn.com forward slash afr. That's preborn.com afr

Rick Green: Carmelo Anthony tweets are despicable
>> Rick Green: Welcome back to At The Core with Walker Wildmon, Rick Green America's constitution coach. Okay, I'm just gonna say one more thing about the whole Carmelo Anthony thing, because producer Bobby was telling me on the break, and I can't believe some of these tweets that people are actually willing to say things like this. But apparently Jasmine Crockett also that it wasn't a deadly weapon. So a knife is not a deadly weapon now. So I need to. I need to get on the phone real quick with the mayor of London because they've been trying to have knife control. So, you know, since they've had so much ridiculous gun control for, so many years. They don't kill people with guns now. They kill them with knives and trucks and, and anything else they can run over them with because, you know, it's not the weapon as we know. It's the heart of man. we'll be back to Cain and Abel and using rocks or jawbones or whatever. Anyway, a knife is now not a deadly weapon if a black man uses it against a white man, a prisoner, apparently. That's the deal. these people, man, I'm telling you, the white and black race baiters are the people that God was talking about in Proverbs to not divide the community. Come on. And, yeah, we got them on the white side, too, man. This Nick Fuentes kid, he's a Nazi. I call him a, twerp. I mean, he's literally that kid that's in the back of the room in class. You remember that kid in high school or middle school that, you know, there's whatever they can do to draw attention to themselves. They say the most outrageous things just so people will, you know, give them attention. I don't know what happened to him as a kid. I don't know if it was the whole conflict with other, you know, quote unquote commentators. I don't even want to say other conservatives because he's never been truly conservative. He's He's a fraud. But people think he's coming from the right and he's a racist. He's an absolute racist. He's an anti Semite. He's anti black. He's anti anything except white. And so, yeah, he's horrible. And I think people should not listen to him. I think he should be shunned and ostracized. I don't think the government should silence him. I'm not for that. But I am for people saying, don't listen to him. We should absolutely say, don't listen to him. And in the same way, if you have a black commentator that is sowing racism in the black community, the black community should stand up and ostracize them and say no to them. I think we're really blessed in the last few years to have some fantastic leaders in the black community that have stood up and done that and said no to this nonsense. People like Colonel Allen west and Brandon Tatum and Bishop Jackson and all these people that have done such a tremendous job of saying no to this stuff. I got a new. Not a new friend. I've had him on radio a few years ago, and I think I aired his interview here. I shared it on, K. Carl Smith, his book, on Frederick Douglass versus, Karl Marx. That's the kind of stuff that needs to be taught. Because what he does is he shows how Karl Marx. You get a white man, Karl Marx and his Marxism and just evil. Evil, Theology is not the right word. What am I looking for? Philosophy. His evil philosophy has caused people to be racist and caused people to be. For tyranny and caused people to. To divide based on these things. Then you got Frederick Douglass, a black man who came out of slavery, who. Who had, you know, lived one of the most extraordinary lives, who. I think he ended up, I think we said it in the interview. Five different presidents that he, counseled and was a part of their administration in some way, shape or form. his. His. His stories are unbelievable. It's absolutely incredible. I'm actually looking across my studio right now. I was able to get a. A, Handwriting, of Frederick Douglass. So I'm starting my collection. You know, David Barton's got this amazing collection of over 100,000 original documents. He's got every signer of the Declaration and Constitution. he's got just an incredible collection. I'm starting mine. I'm just. I'm just barely starting. And my first two pieces in my collection, Oliver Walcott signer of the Declaration. I've got a handwritten document from him and. And, Frederick Douglass. It's a handwritten deal where. And he said this a lot, but it was. It's a handwritten, Where he said we are as, as different as the waves. We're the same as the sea and as different as the waves. I love that. I love that. but anyway, so I'm a Frederick Douglass fan, big time, always have been. David Barton introduced me to Frederick Douglass and a lot of the things that he said and wrote and did. But K. Carl Smith took the Douglas sayings and writings and, and compared them and basically created a debate between Karl Marx and Frederick Douglass. They were, contemporaries in terms of. They lived to At the same time, but they never actually debated. And so anyway, go back and listen to that interview with K. Carl. But it is so timely for this Carmelo Anthony, conviction and the responses and the way people acted during the trial. And I don't think this is something that we can shy away from.
Rick: Some people will be offended by what I said
A lot of things I've said in the last 20 minutes. Some people will be offended by. They will or they will take offense to it. You're not offended by something unless you choose to take offense. No one can offend you. All they can do is say something that you choose to be offended by. And when you do, so what? Nothing happens when people are offended. There's too many people in the church right now that have become so sugary and sweet and dull that they are no longer salt and light. We're supposed to be salt and light, not sugary and dull. And the reason they've become sugary and dull is out of fear of giving offense. Well, friends, the gospel is offensive. The truth is offensive. It is going to cause a chemical reaction when the salt goes into the meat to preserve it and bring out the best flavor. So it burns a little. All right? So when you get that burning, because people are actually being salt, they're actually standing up and saying, this is right, this is wrong, this is truth, and I'm going to stand for it. When they are actually doing that and being salt and light, well, the darkness does not like to be dispelled. All right? The meat has a chemical reaction when the salt goes in and creates that preservation in the same way the culture. When we are salt, when we're salty, it's going to. It's going to cause some people to choose to be offended. So I say that, set that up to say some people will not like what I said. In the last 20 minutes. They will not like the fact that I'm saying that racism in both the black and the white community is being stirred up by these people that want to do the opposite of mlk. They want you to judge people by the color of their skin. They want you to put people in a bucket. And if they're in the right bucket, from their perspective, they got the right color of skin. So if they're black and the other person's black, then you can do no wrong. You can murder a white kid, and they will stand in your defense and say that you're being made an example of if you're convicted of 35 years. There are people in the white community, like this Fuentes twerp, that are doing the same thing. They are dividing based on race. Our message as Christians has to be race should not matter. Our message has to be neither Jew nor Greek. So to At the time Paul was writing that, he's essentially saying, don't be racist. Don't treat people different, whether they're Greek or Jewish. In our. In our world today, in our particular culture, we would say red, white, yellow, black, or brown. We're going to treat everybody the same, no matter their color of skin, no matter their background, no matter the neighborhood they came from, no matter their socioeconomic status, whether they're rich or poor. We're going to look to At people and say, you're a child of God. You are a created being, and you have intrinsic worth by being a human being because God created you different from the other animals. Now he created you to have the same worth as someone else that's a human being, regardless of whether or not their skin color is the same, came from the same part of the world or country, whether they are as smart as you are, not, whether they have a learning disability or not. I mean, this. This. This applies to the. To this whole debate going on social media right now. I don't even know who this guy was, but apparently some YouTuber, aborted his kid because it was potentially going to have down syndrome. Same same issue here. That child that he murdered had just as much worth. Whether down syndrome, whether an Elon Musk, you know, genius, whether autistic, whether whatever, they have the same intrinsic value as a human being. And as Christians, if we make that argument, then we have to say that means race doesn't matter. It should not matter. We shouldn't look to At each other and care what color of skin you have. So these people right now that are sowing discord, violating that proverb and being something that God hates. I mean, that's not me saying that. That's Proverbs. The Bible says that. It's one of the six things in the. In that verse are in that chapter that God says he hates the people that sow discord in the community. So I pray that that will. That will, you know, be stamped out, that we will shame it, that we will shun it. This is why I bring it up. I mean, some people would say, oh, you just, you know, you shouldn't. You shouldn't even highlight what Jasmine Crockett said. You shouldn't even. You're causing division or racism by even, pointing out that she said that. That these white parents of a murdered child. Oh, that what they're suffering is nothing compared to what a black woman faces every single day. I mean, we should highlight what she said, and we should shun her for saying that is a lie. Austin Metcalfe parents suffered the loss of a son. Not just the loss of a son. The murder. He was taken from them. This wasn't a car accident. This wasn't a tragedy that was out of control, you know, unable to be controlled. Not to At all. This was a choice by a human being to murder another human being. And therefore, the taking of their son caused immense pain in their family. I can't even imagine. I've never had a tragedy like that in my family. Pray I never do. Immense pain in their life. And from now on, they will feel that's a hole that doesn't get filled. And yet Jasmine Crockett says, if you just happen to have the right color skin and you're a female, you have the right anatomy. If you're a black woman, you face every day worse pain and heartache than these parents who had a son murdered. That has to be shunned. We have to say, no, that's not. That's not. Not only is it not right, it's not even acceptable in. In. In polite society to say something so ridiculous because she's sowing racism into the people within her sphere. And in. In. In the reaction from, people that happen to be brown or. Or, you know, white or Asian or whatever, if they're not black, they're now judged differently based on the color skin.
Supreme Court decision could end discrimination in redistricting, says M. M.
We need to say no to this. And so, as I said before the break, the redistricting battles are based on this exact same thing. The fact that we've allowed people to. To, draw lines in states to. To try and make sure that someone gets to Congress purely based on the color of their skin. So now judged by the color of their skin, not the content of their character, which leads to their behavior, their political positions, all those things. Those are the things in my case that we should be judging people on. But no, we're going to draw districts and guarantee that somebody goes to Congress just because they're black, just because they're white, just because they're brown, just because they're. Whatever that is hopefully coming to an end. So all of this crazy stuff you're seeing on in these news clips and social media clips from the Anthony, trial, yes, it highlights how bad the racism is in some pockets of our country. But I want to end today talking about the positive, talking about the fact that we might be turning the corner on that by shunning it and saying, no more, we don't want that. And pointing out that the SPLC had to. There was so little racism or violence, practically none from the right, that they had to make it up. They had to go use SPLC money to hire people to act like they were racist or, you know, right wing, or, you know, what they call right wing. I don't think that's right wing. I think that's just pure racism. it's actually, we have so little racism in the country that they had to pay people to do it. So these people that you're seeing in the, social media stuff from the Anthony trial I hope is a microcosm. M. I mean, I would argue the evidence is there's definitely more racism in the black community right now than in the white community, but it is starting to crop back up in the white community and we should say no to that. but nationally it's getting smaller and the law reflects that. Now I would. There's an order to this. The law is a great teacher, my friend Frank Turek would say. And so even if the opinions in the country don't yet reflect something that is truth, that needs to be the law. Like don't murder or don't judge based on the, on the, color, skin. So now we have a law. I say that lightly because it's a Supreme Court decision, which should not normally be the law, but the civil rights laws do say that you should not draw districts based on racism. And we've been doing that for 60 years in this country. And the Supreme Court has just said a few weeks ago, no, don't do that anymore. Don't judge by the color of skin, judge by the content of character. So now you got a Supreme Court Decision that is, I, guess you could say law, because it is applying the actual Civil Rights act, which says, don't draw districts based on color, skin. So, hey, I think we could have, you know, a turning point in our country to say that. You know what? We're going to have blind districts, we're going to have colorblind districts. We're going to have districts that don't judge you based on your color of skin. Maybe we should do that. Here's an idea. My youngest son recommended this the other day. Maybe we should do that with regard to partisanship as well. You know, all these fights over the redistricting. Absolutely legal, absolutely constitutional for a state to redistrict this year and to draw lines based on partisanship, not based on race, but based on party. only one that did it unconstitutionally was Virginia because they violated their state constitution in how they did it. They could have done it the right constitutional way if they started early enough. So anyway, that's constitutional. That's. That's legal to do that. But you know what? I think maybe we'll. Maybe we'll flesh this out in a future program. I think maybe my son's onto something. He said, dad, why don't we, If we can say you can't take race into consideration when you're drawing the lines, why can't we say you can't take party into consideration? What if we actually said in redistricting. Some of my Republican friends in the legislatures are going to get really mad that I'm saying this, but what if we actually said, in redistricting, you just have to do it based on population? You cannot look to At any other data when you're drawing the congressional lines. And so now you actually do your best to keep counties together, make them square districts or whatever, instead of doing gerrymandering, instead of. Instead of actually purposely drawing a Republican or Democrat district. What if. What if you threw the population into the computer and you drew it without being able to look to At partisanship, just as you cannot look to At race. Wow, that just might work. That might remove a lot of this hatred and bigotry and all of the things that have been happening to divide us, and then Congress just reflects whatever those districts turned out to be with no partisanship considered, just, you know, as, as, as, compact as you can on the districts. Anyway, I'm getting too far into the weeds as we're closing out, but these are the kind of things we should start thinking about in order to bring our country back together in order to reduce the division again, judging each other based on the content of our character, our behavior, the things that we actually do. You murder somebody, you get convicted, you go to prison. We throw away the key in his case for 35 years. I think it's a good thing that justice happened. All right, out of time for today. Walker's got you tomorrow. I'll see you next Tuesday. You're listening to to At the The Core or have been listening to to At the The Core with Walker Wildmon and Rick Green
