Exploring the Health Benefits of Cacao and Its Comparison to Modern Chocolate
Todd Herman Guys, what if the healthiest drink you had every day tasted like chocolate? Properly prepared, ceremony grade Cacao is completely different from the processed junk chocolate. And researchers studying the Kuna people found dramatically lower rates of heart problems among those who drink cacao daily. I drink it. It is absolutely natural and it just fills your body with goodness. Modern chocolate processing destroys up to 60% of cacao's beneficial compounds. Ceremonial GR cacao preserves that these are naturally occurring flavanols. It contains 63 times more oxidants than broccoli. And theobromine provides smoother, longer lasting energy than caffeine without the jitters. I take cacao bliss in the afternoon. I drink it warm. Here's what you can do.

A Disciples View: Discussing Election Day, Voting, and Concerns About Election Integrity
Jeff Chamblee Welcome to a Disciples View with Todd Herman.
Todd Herman When the God of the universe created the world, he didn't snap his fingers or wink his eye. The Lord spoke and go said, let there be light, because we believe, we speak about the happenings in this world, mindful that our true home is with Jesus Christ in his kingdom. I'm, Todd Herman. Welcome to a Disciples View. Quite a weekend, for news and quite a weekend to think about the fact that we have an election tomorrow and many of you have already voted. Praise God for that, that you've done that. many of you are waiting like I am until election day and I can't wait to go down to the polls with my wife. I feel good about the way the elections are run here. I prayed over our ballots and I encourage you to pray over yours. I do think there's attempts already to normalize the theft of the election. PolitiFact and PBS wants to remind us that it's perfectly normal to have to wait a long time to know who won elections. And this is the way they put it. When will we know 2026 midterm election results? It may take some time, but that's normal. If you go to bed on election night and don't know who won A midterm congressional race, that's normal. And if you wake up the next morning and find that a candidate who is behind hours earlier has since pulled ahead, that's normal, too. That won't stop some politicians, their allies, from spreading misinformation during vote counting. So they've already decided in advance that there's, no issues with the elections and no attempts to cheat. None of this is a reason to not vote. It's a reason to vote.
Christian Duty to Vote on Key Issues: From Child Mutilation to Election Integrity and International Politics
The primary and most important reason to vote, if you're a Christian, is because the world is asking, what do the ambassadors of Jesus Christ say about chemically and surgically mutilating children, about abortion anytime, anywhere, about teaching perverse, pornographic sex ed in the schools, about instituting racism into the law so that you can hire people based solely upon race, not upon what they're capable of doing. Ongoing, continuing debt that will never be paid back. All of these issues are on the ballot. A party that hates religious liberty unless it's religious liberty for Muslims, all this is on the ballot. And the world is asking, what do the, the people who are ambassadors for Christ think? And yes, there are going to be attempts to steal elections, that's obvious. You have separate countries like Washington, the former state of Washington, the former state of California, now very much separate countries who are refusing to take illegal immigrants off of the voter rolls and not even to, not, not, not even to promise to not count their votes or to not count them, but to sequester them for further investigation. They refuse. So there are going to be these attempts and incidentally to PolitiFact and PBS. No, it is not normal to wait days and sometimes weeks to know who won an election. It was normal for the last several decades to count the votes after the election polls closed and announce the winner. That's been the case for most of our lives. I'm nearly 60. It's been the case for most of my life. In fact, it was very, very abnormal when the Al Gore situation with George W. Bush was unfolding and they were attempting to find any and all votes for Al Gore, such as when someone voted for all the offices, save president, they didn't make a vote for president, literally held up paper ballots to light and used sometimes magnifying glasses to see if they could find any indication that a voter's little, ah, little pen thing that used as a stylus. It wasn't a pen, but it was something you'd poke through the ballot if the stylist had brushed the area by Al Gore's name that was abnormal and everybody knew it was abnormal. This only became so called normal when vote by mail came along. And that form of vote fraud was perfected in the separate country of Washington, where everybody who's ever looked at this even casually understands that election was stolen from the Republican Dina Rossi and given to the Democrat Krish Gregoire. So that was in the news. Go vote, because President Trump is seeking election integrity and you'll know them by their fruits.
Analysis of Poland's Political Situation and Refusal to Accept Muslim Immigrants Amidst EU Policies
Jesus Christ told us this about false teachers. You can apply that a little bit more broadly. Over the weekend, there was a attempted coup which is kind of ongoing in Poland. one of the officials there, who's a globalist, this Tusk, ordered a raid on the highest court in Poland while the President was away. And this is the definition of a coup. That's what this does. This Tusk guy did. Guess who celebrated that? Donald Tusk. The guy Tusk wrote on Twitter. Restoring the rule of law is our duty. After years of PIs led lawlessness. This is a difficult, process, sometimes painful, requires decisive action. There's no other way. Adam Kinzinger, remember him? Former Congressman Adam Kinzinger, the former congressman who was on the January 6 committee, who wanted everybody who ever met President Trump or wore a red hat put in prison for January 6th. He responds, Good job, Good job with the coup. So what has been the issue with Poland? They will not accept Muslim immigrants. Not in mass. They're ignoring the EU's drive to erase national borders and they speak openly about it. Islam is incompatible with the governing method of Poland. We won't, we won't import Islamists and you could turn it into race if you choose. But they didn't say Islamists with dark skin. They said Islamists because Islam is a political structure. It's not a faith, it's a political structure.
Examining Allegations of Illegal Immigrants on Voter Rolls and the Lack of Verification Processes
So when you see these things, you will know them by their fruits. You will know them by their fruits in states like Washington there, the Secretary of State has been asked about not removing illegal immigrants from the, voter rolls there. And this conversation unfolded. The, the, the federal government has revealed that there's at least 400 illegal immigrants on the voter rolls and they voted about 1500 times. So the Secretary of State on Como News,
Speaker C you say with a lot of confidence, the DOJ is just dead wrong about non citizens being on the voter rolls. But you also say the state's not checking. How can you make that claim that this is not a widespread issue when by your own admission, the state's not checking this?
Speaker D So because it's so rare in which actual non citizens vote. And if you compare, like the number of non citizens that have been caught, you know, the 15 or over the course since 1982 versus the other issues of fraud, or not really fraud, but mistakes that happen, like rejected, ballots due to signature. we have had cases where a widow,
Todd Herman he's filibustering. The important statement was at the beginning, they don't check. They don't know. They have no idea. None. How many illegal immigrants are in the voter rolls because they have no process to check it. The former Secretary of State of that separate country, Kim Wyman, was a Republican ish person who went to work for the people who ran Joe Biden. Kim told me to my face on my radio show, we do not have a method for checking to see if illegal immigrants are on the voter rolls. I said, the federal government has a list of Social Security numbers. You could check it against that. There's no way to do that. She also told me this. I said, I want to be able to inspect the way ballots are counted because you do this through software now. I'm going to give you a Freedom of Information act request to have some coding experts look into the codes, of these voting machines. You know what she told me? we can't give you that information. I said, freedom of Information Act. She said, no. The licensing agreement says that no one can ever look at the code. They can't be expected. This is not a reason to not vote. This is a reason to vote because only President Trump has really ever proceeded to demand election integrity. This is the Thurston County Auditor, Mary hall, who was asked about Steve Hobbs. You just heard him, the Secretary of State, admitting that they don't have any way to know if illegal immigrants are voting. she's at this press conference here, and the, the dictator of Washington State is there, Bob Ferguson.
Speaker E So we always receive accusations that non citizens are voting. And we have yet to really see any cases where people have been prosecuted.
Todd Herman Okay, prosecuted. There are people being prosecuted now for voting in your elections when they weren't legally allowed to do that.
Speaker E For being non citizens and voting. we keep very tight records in our voter registration database. We are a voter ID state.
Todd Herman No, you're not. We keep very tight records, but we have no idea if, someone's a citizen. Illegal immigrants get driver's licenses. Legal immigrants who are not citizens get driver's licenses. They get ballots mailed to them. And then she states, we are a voter ID state. No, you're not.
The Importance of Voting for Election Integrity and Addressing Taxation Without Representation Issues
They don't check voter id. This is not a reason to not vote. It's a reason to vote. You can wash, rinse, repeat this stuff in many, in, in Minnesota, in Chicago, in NewSong York, in Washington D.C. in California, in Colorado. If there's one issue that we should be voting for, it's that our elections should count and they should be as safe as possible and as fair as possible. Only Donald Jon Trump was pushing for that and only the Republican Party has been forced to push for that because there's plenty of Republicans who don't care about this stuff. This is from Santa Ana, California. Tyvet Fion admits that what one third of the city is what
Speaker F I think it goes to the core of what it means to be America, which is taxation without representation. And the reality is that a large number of our residents are undocumented, are paying taxes, do work in our communities and a part of our families.
Speaker G What would be your argument to the majority of Santana voters who voted down the, you know, the possibility of allowing non citizens to vote?
Speaker H My argument would be again, people don't feel represented by their government locally and federally. It's clear, or one, one of the reasons is because they're not allowed to vote. So this would this would change that. It gives our people powered side more ability to fight those special interests that, you know, represent people outside the
Speaker F city. I think that is the most American thing to do is to say that everybody who lives here who cares about this community has a voice. And by allowing non citizen residents, people who live here for 10 years, 20 years, 30 years, their whole lives, to have to be able to participate in our government makes our city safer, makes our city more m vibrant and makes our communities stronger. So that is my argument.
Todd Herman Crime makes us safer. Crime makes us stronger. Crime makes us more resilient. Up to one third of the residents of that city is illegal and they get ballots in the mail as well. None of this is a reason to not vote. It's a reason to vote.
The Gift of Truth, Financial Blind Spots in Retirement Accounts, and the Pillars of the American Economy
It may be the reason to vote. The biggest reason of all is that the Lord Jesus, in saving you and me and giving us the Holy Spirit has given us the gift of truth. We must steward every single gift the Lord gave us wisely. The world is asking, what's the truth about when life begins? If boys are girls and girls are boys, if racism is something that should be encoded in the law and if cheating should be a normal part of American elections. If you haven't voted yet, please go vote. We'll come Back on the Disciples View. Foreign. A lot of you guys know that, every Friday at my friend Zach Abraham, Chief Investment Officer, BO Capital on with me. Ah, for our faith filled finance segments. Zach has been noticing something about people's retirement accounts and it reveals a blind spot. And a lot of people, even financial managers and even some fiduciaries are, are just blind to something. They're so focused on AI, they're so focused on sugar highs in the stock market and not really digging into what is, what's, what's driving this. Guys, it's government spending, it's data center building. Those are the two pillars holding up the American economy. But there's a massive blind spot and it might be in your retirement account. My friend Zach Abraham will give you three free, no obligation consultations where they will look at your account with a fine tooth comb and they'll tell you what they find. If they can help you, they'll make that clear. If you're in good stead, they won't even let you change. It's easy to sign up.

Encouragement to Vote for Godly Candidates Using iVoterGuide and Understanding Christian Duty
Welcome back to Disciples View. I'm Todd Herman. We'll get to the tower of babbling in a personal note in the next segment. And it is the day before election day, at least for those of us who vote in person. And many of you have already voted, Praise God. Please pray over your ballots. if you're having any trouble at all making a decision or just want to make sure that you're voting for the most godly candidate, get over to ivoterguide.com I voterguide.com which is a, investment the American Family foundation has made. And it's an extraordinarily well done website. I used to build websites like that. Well, not build them, but I had teams that built things like this for me when I was the chief digital strategist at the RNC in in Washington D.C. so from my eyes it's an incredible website. It gets down to judicial races, initiatives, initiatives to the people. Ivoterguide.com so do you have a 1 reason for voting? And if you are not voting and you're a Christian, would you please, please pray about that and just consider what you've been given by the Lord Jesus is an ambassadorship in his Kingdomnomics. We've all been told through the, the interaction that the Lord Jesus had with Peter, if you love me, feed my sheep. by this, people will know you, are my followers, that you love one another. If we love one another, we love him. We're going to feed his sheep and we're counted among his sheep. We're ambassadors of the King, Lord Jesus. We are to be in this world, but not of it. We are to be good citizens in this world. If we're persecuted, let it be for doing, right versus doing wrong. All of these things add up to we have to vote. So if you are not voting and you're a Christian, please change your mind, pray about it. I think if you pray and open your heart, I think your mind will change. I think that you'll end up voting. Ah, yeah. I hope that's the case.
Reasons to Vote: Election Integrity, Abortion, and the Democrat Party's Agenda to Decimate the Family Unit
So a single reason to vote. We talked last segment about election integrity and that President Trump is really the only president in history who's made election integrity a hallmark of his movement. And he drugged the Republican Party, kicking and yelling and scratching into this because they don't want to talk about election integrity because they're still of the mind that if you even suggest there's something funky with our elections where you don't check voter id, most signatures are never checked. Ballots are allowed to be counted when they arrive after the election with no post date, et cetera. It's very clear to anyone who's looked at this even casually, the system at least invites fraud. That's a reason to vote. Another single reason that people have is abortion. Yes, abortion at any time the Democrat Party wants. That's not a political issue. The Lord, as we are his ambassadors here, we have to vote, even if just on that issue, alone, and vote for candidates who back the right for a baby to stay alive in the womb. Here's another. The Democrat party, in concert with the sexual left in the churches, wants to utterly decimate the family. The family unit, just as open borders is designed to decimate nation states to make it possible to have a one world government, which of course the Bible tells us will happen. We don't have to cheer for it. Tearing down the guardrails on sexuality will destroy the family.
The Sexual Left's Attack on the Family Unit and the Expansion of LGBTQ+ Identities and Behaviors
Satan hates the family unit because God created the family unit. The sexual left hates the family unit because they want power to continue to push the bounds of what is acceptable sexual behavior or gender behavior. Notice that it's now lgb, so called tqa. You know about the A Right. Do you know what The A is you don't. The A is where you get to choose your age. Oh no, I'm not a pedophile. I identify as an 11 year old girl, says the 56 year old man. Therefore I'm not a pedophile. The Democrats by virtue of the fact of trying to force people to pretend men are women, which they are still doing. They are still doing wrong sex surgery and hormone procedures on kids. They're just pretending now that it's not because of the gender lies. They're just pretending that it is a, an existing physical medical condition. They have a hormone shortage. You know, this girl just doesn't have enough testosterone. So they're still doing this. It's part and parcel of the left, the sexual left pharma. All of whom who hate the human body. This is a reason to vote the changing on sexual mores. This is out of Colorado.
Concerns Over Judges Releasing Criminals and the Democrat Party's Pro-Crime Stance on Sexual Violence
So a guy gets caught in one of those stings meant to catch sexual predators. And listen to this. Believe
Todd Herman that they made the motion saying hey, I have a prepaid trip to Florida. however they left out the detail of boarding a Disney cruise. The
Jeff Chamblee court approved the trip, but police say Krennich never made it on board. Disney flagged him before the cruise and refused. Was
Todd Herman the guy is caught in a. In, in a. In a sting to catch guys who are seeking to in inflict their. The sexual lust in the bodies of children. Goes before a judge and says look, I've got this prepaid cruise. can I go? And the judge is sure. This guy's name is Apparently Jonathan Cranish, 41 Centennial, Colorado posted a $75,000 bond. That's a lot. And it was Disney who stopped him from going. Aurora police sergeant Joseph Sullivan. The end result of whether they met with a child or police officer. It doesn't matter. The intent was to go meet with a child. Right. For sexual purposes, guys. All across the country there are spiritually captured judges who are making decisions like this. All across the western states and in places like NewSong York, which is now run by Zaran Mamdani, who evidently, very evidently hates the United States of America. In places like Minnesota, people who are committing acts of sexual violence against kids, physical acts are being let out. I, man, I don't even know if I should tell you this.
The Horrific Consequences of the Democrat Party's Pro-Crime Policies, Including Lowering the Age of Consent
No, I. Leave it there. Whatever you're thinking about letting violent sexual criminals out. I, I could, I could, I could just, I could chill you with what just happened in the separate country, Washington State. I can't bring myself to say it on afr, I'll say this. A, A young gang member sexually assaulted a boy, beat him nearly to death, was let out by judge, and then took another boy's life in one of the most unspeakable acts you could ever, ever imagine. And this happens all the time. The Democrat party has become pro crime. They have become in favor of lowering the age of consent in the separate country of California. Scott Wiener, who's probably going to take Nancy Pelosi's place in the House, passed a law to make it legal for an adult man, 18 or 23 or 25, to impress his sexual wants upon the bodies of children. So long as there's, quote, only a seven year age difference, that's a reason to vote.
Critique of False Teachings on Polygamy and the Democrat Party's Embrace of the Sexual Left's Agenda
This is a pastor in Cleveland, so called pastor named Israel Ford. But he's obviously a false teacher. but this is something that's going on courtesy of the sexual left in the Democrats. He explained to his lost congregation why he started a polygamous relationship.
Todd Herman I mean, okay, how
Speaker K did you bring yourself to a place to say to. And. And it is beautiful. Yes. So, and you. And knowing that can make her possibly feel like she's not enough or she's not attractive. What was going on in your head? I can't. How did you have that conversation? Tell me how you felt about that and how it came about.
Speaker L Okay. So honestly, my wife, she's different from most women to where she doesn't mind if I look. Or she was like, oh my God, she cute. And she let me, you know, when other women, you know, they'll be like, what you looking at men, they'd be acting like they have to look somewhere else. I never had to do that with her. So it went from there into like, Shakayla always being around, helping her when she was sick, cooking, cleaning, just doing different things. And to the point where, you know, when I fell in love with Shakayla, I told her, I said, you know, let me talk to you honestly from my heart. I said, I can't see Shaquilla going anywhere. And I said, I don't want to live outside the covenant. I don't want to live outside, like, just being sinful. And I said, so I want to pray about it.
Todd Herman So he prayed about it. And in his mind, God said, have a polygamous relationship. That wasn't God. It is for this reason that a man leaves his family and clings to his wife, singular. And they become one flesh, singular. This is adultery. The Bible makes that very clear. But in the Minds of Democrat party organizers. Lgb so called T and then Q and now A for age. You can decide your age. When nothing is forbidden, all is allowed. And this is the theory of the Democrat party. I Voterguide.com is your source to make sure you're voting for the most godly candidate. And Christians in my mind absolutely have to vote. So this pastor false teacher claimed they all prayed and fasted for 40 days before making their decision to become a throuple. Do you believe that? They didn't eat for 40 days
Speaker L and I actually started praying. I started fast. As a matter of fact, all three of us, we prayed and fast for 40 days. So we, we agreed to do a 40 day fast. And in the middle of the other fast, God spoke to me and to Shakayla. We had a dream on the exact same night of God telling us, oh yeah, right. Because God spoke to us. And the crazy part about it, he spoke to us and he didn't speak to her. M but I told her, I said I would never marry her until you are okay with it. Because my I can't have two wives if I get a second one and the first one walk away, I'm still back at square root one. And so I had to wait. And so after God gave me the okay, she was like, well, I just need a little time. Need a little time. And then when she was okay, then we crossed over.
Todd Herman So God was not okay. Never happened that God was okay. Now I know it's election season and are we dealing with the distraction? No. I'll remind you of something in, just a second. Yet another reason to vote. Just to close this off, the host of this podcast asked this false teaching, false fake pastor this very simple question.
The Importance of Living by the Word and the Dangers of Inviting Sin into the Home
He asked this pastor named Israel Ford. Why?
Speaker K So Israel why?
Speaker L Wow, that is a loaded question. I came out for two reasons. The first one is because, I believe that if you do something and you preach something, you should live it. And so, I think transparency is everything. The thing about it is, is that I know that I can't help people if I'm not being the example. And I started hearing the stories. I started meeting men who, they wanted a second wife. But it was like, but I don't know this. It's like they don't know the scriptures. I did it because I searched the scriptures and I got confirmation for me. And then, When I preach it, when I teach it, you can't help but be like, you're right because I'm a word man. I don't Hoop, I don't have a clothes my church crew because I preach, I pray, and I do prophesy, but it's like none of that matters. It's just the Word. And it's like if you don't get it in the word, that means God has. God hasn't given it to you. And I believe that you have to have a confirmation from God. If you do something outside of faith, it is sin.
Todd Herman You didn't find in the scripture where it said you shall have one wife or probably multiple wives. You didn't find that in scripture. David's, house was destroyed because of his insatiable desire for other women. His family was destroyed. His sons tried to kill him.
The Consequences of Not Voting and the Allegations Against James Jimmy Talarico Regarding Online Activity
One of his sons, raped one of his stepsisters. You invite sin into the house. We Christians, if we don't vote, if we don't go express God's truth given to us, as a gift, if we don't steward that all the way into the voting booth, we are inviting more satanic behavior into the extended family of America, which affects God's family, the body of Christ. Now, I want to be careful with this story because it deserves very, very careful consideration. Town Hall.com got a hold of a, hacking of some data that was hacked from a sexual hookup website called fling.com and in 2001, they had a data breach. Turns out that one of the records that was, that was found in this data breach has ties, they claim, to James Jimmy Talarico. Did this happen in 2010? He was far from famous. Sixteen years ago. He was getting ready to start teaching sixth grade. So this email address, Mohawk787 matched an IP address that was, that it shows up online on online video game records tied to his sister, Talarico's sister. Talarico's attorneys admit, yes, that IP address is tied to James Jimmy Talarico's sister. But James Jimmy Tallerico had nothing to do with it. I don't believe that. And among the things that this account was looking for in town hall suggests this was James Jimmy Tallerico. Fetish group, sex, sexual relations, online flirting. Now, that is not proven. And his lawyers vehemently denied that it was James Jimmy Talarico. And, look, Ken Paxton has his own issues, but he is not a false teacher. He does not wear a Jesus skin suit. He is not part of the lgb, so called T. Q and now a movement to create it, make it possible for people to identify as an age, therefore no longer be pedophiles. I voterguide.com Please get out and vote as Jesus would have you do. We'll come back on the Disciples View.
Thanking Sponsors and Discussing Edward Dowd's Analysis of COVID-19 Lockdowns and Their Economic Impact
Hey, we want to take a moment, to thank our sponsor, PreBorn. When a mother meets her baby on ultrasound and hears their heartbeat, it's a divine connection. And the majority of the time she will choose life. But they can't do it without our help. Preborn needs us, the pro life community, to come alongside them. One ultrasound is just $28. To donate, dial pound 250 and say the word baby or visit preborne.com afr. Welcome back to Disciples View. We're going to get to the tower babbling in a personal note. And, I could say much more if that would be kind of a silly radio thing and plus much more day, before election day, many of you voted early. I'm thankful for that. If you're struggling for whom to vote or there's issues like initiatives or judicial positions, and they're confusing, please get over to ivoterguide.com this is an initiative of the American Family Association. It's an incredible resource. And if you're sick of me saying it, there's only one more day of me saying this for a little while. For two years, it's incumbent upon Christians to vote. I believe we have to vote. get to a cleanup item here. Do you know who Ed Dowd is? Edward Dowd. so back in the, during the, the Cove lockdown era, in the, in the height of that psychological operation against us, there was a guy named Edward Dowd. And Edward is a math guy. He's.
Critique of COVID-19 Lockdowns, Government Spending, and BlackRock's Role in Economic Manipulation
He's great with big numbers. He'd been a portfolio manager for BlackRock. And he began to notice that number, that none of the numbers made sense, that. Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute. We're shutting down most of small businesses, a third of the American economy. We're shutting it down for a disease for which there's a 99.86% survival rate. That doesn't make any sense. So he began to look at this from a numbers perspective. Why are we doing this now? Remember, he'd been a portfolio manager at BlackRock. Well, BlackRock is one of the reasons they did this. BlackRock said we have to find a way to inject about $1.5 billion into the economy. And they did that during the lockdown. The COVID relief monies and the Federal Reserve invented debt twice. $750 million.
Analysis of COVID-19 Vaccine Data and Excess Mortality Rates, Highlighting Potential Harm from Protocols and Shots
They gave that to the treasury, who turned it into fake money. And Then illegally gave that fake money to companies owned by BlackRock and Vanguard, who then turned around and purchased storefronts and assets that had been destroyed during the Cove lockdown. This is one of the reasons the Cove lockdown happened and why BlackRock pushed for it and Vanguard pushed for it. So Ed Dowd just looked at this from a numbers perspective. Then he just started to take his math skills and apply them to other areas of the lockdowns, such as studying the numbers behind masks. They don't make sense. They cause more harm than good. This is what the numbers say. Remdemesivir causes more harm than good. That's what the numbers say. So people will say, why do you listen to this guy? He's not a physician. You don't need to be a physician to study numbers. So now he's looking at the COVID shots. And former BlackRock portfolio manager Ed Dowd warned that excess mortality data reveals two distinct phases of COVID era deaths. And here he is,
Edward Dowd I'm a Wallnua street guy, and we use, quantitative skills to figure out what's going on in the markets. And when we saw what was happening, well, first of all, I refused to take the shot personally. And then when it was mandated, I became quite annoyed. and I had a suspicion that because it was an emergency, new novel technologies, gene therapy that had never been tested on humans, but that, oh, hey, let me keep my eyes on something. And I said, it'll show up in funeral home results and insurance company results. And sure enough, it started in 2021 showing up. And, you know, after the shots, there was, there was a mix shift from, excess. There were excess deaths in 2020 in the US of about 500,000, Americans. you could probably say now that we have a lot of, testimony and whatnot that was due to bad hospital protocols. That was kill shot number one. Bad, bad, protocols.
Todd Herman Okay, kill shot number one. He describes it. I, concur. The bad hospital protocols. Forcing people onto ventilators when they didn't need them, forcing them onto Remdemsevir, which has almost no possibility of helping anybody, and then forcing them onto painkillers, which lowers your respiration rate, and then eventually forcing all too many onto a three drug cocktail that you would use for an end stage hospice patient. That's part of the hospital protocol. So now, Ed Dowd described a fundamental shift in all this. In 2021.
Edward Dowd Then in 2021, the vaccine rolled out and we had another 500,000 excess deaths.
The Shift in COVID-19 Deaths from Older to Working-Age Populations and the Suspected Role of Vaccines
But there was A mixed shift from old to young. Mostly old people died in 2020. Then working age Americans started to die. And the numbers of excess deaths, in 2020, one rose from one, hundred 24,000, working age people to like 240,000 in 2021. So there was a mix shift. So the excess death number stayed the same, but the young started dying.
Todd Herman So now Ed Dowd's looking at the numbers again. Remember, he's just a numbers guy, but if you're a really good numbers guy, numbers can tell you a lot. And Dowd explain why the anomaly of deaths in young people couldn't be ignored.
Edward Dowd And you, look, you know, I'm not a scientist or a doctor, but I'm pretty sure there's no virus that attacks young people and mutates to attack young people. So we surmised it was the, vaccine. So we did a lot of research on our website, financetechnologies, uh,.com with a ph. You can go to our humanity, project section where we outline all this. And we did a lot of work detailing what was going on in 2021. There, was 40% excess deaths in the group life policyholders, that ages, 24 to 25 to 44. And it peaked out at 80% in September of 2021. That was all due to the mandates. So clearly. And again, I said this, you know, four or five years ago. And, at the time I said it was very controversial. I think, you know, as times rolled, on and more and more is coming out, we've been proven right.
Todd Herman Right. It was the shots. The, Covid shots killed a bunch of young people. The excess Deaths, people ages 25 through 44, excess deaths went from 40% excess deaths, people who should not have died, to 80% increase shouldn't have died.
Accusations of Murder Against Public Health Officials and Pharmaceutical Companies Regarding COVID-19 Vaccines
Tony Fauci, Bill Gates, Rochelle, Walensky, everybody involved in this. Francis Collins, Robert Redfield, who was too cowardly to speak out then, is speaking out now. Praise God. They murdered people. The heads of Pfizer and Moderna. They murdered people. God will judge, and his judgment is going to be perfect and his judgment is going to be permanent. I hope they repent. On this program, we thank the Lord for placing supposedly wise people on tall towers of shaking sand with their feature called the Tower of Babbling.
The Tower of Babbling: Critiquing Globalist Agendas, Perverse Families, and Government Financial Policies
Jeff Chamblee You know, about the biblical truth of the Tower of Babel. A, disciple's view presents the Tower of Babylon.
Speaker N Well, the answer is, listen to Bill Gates. Bill's right around about a lot of things. And he's at the steep learning curve in global hell.
Todd Herman Yeah, no, I'll not, thanks. three sound bites in today's tower babbling. That's almost always the case. One of the, J.B. pritzker is the boss man dictator over in Illinois, and he's a member of one of the most perverse and harmful families in history. their family started selling their inherited wealth in hotels and investing in medical devices and pharmaceuticals at the same time as J.B. pritzker's brother, who is a man who pretends to be a woman and has been surgically, apparently surgically, very much, hormonally altered, was running the background group, the Human Rights Campaign to Trans Kids. So why not sell your hotel stock and purchase surgical supplies? J.B. pritzker has an interesting idea about how to lower your property taxes.
Eric Metaxas We're also providing local government the funds to decide which roads need the most
Todd Herman work
Eric Metaxas in local areas. This capital bill will relieve some of the pressure,
Todd Herman therefore,
Eric Metaxas on
Todd Herman property
Eric Metaxas taxes. We're connecting
Todd Herman families
Eric Metaxas and businesses
Todd Herman to the limitless
Eric Metaxas possibilities
Todd Herman of
Eric Metaxas the Internet.
Todd Herman So raising your gas taxes will lower your property taxes. Got it. Did we just talk about math?
The Tower of Babbling: Debating God's Nature and Defending James Jimmy Talarico's Views on God's Gender
Next sound bite in today's tower babbling. The Daily show, which is, an atheist show almost across the board. Guy there named Jonathan Klepper, he wants you up, to hear his defense of James Jimmy Talarico pretending God is non binary.
Speaker P This non binary. I don't believe in that one bit.
Speaker E I don't like Talarico. Why is that? He would say God is non binary.
Speaker Q That
Speaker E is not true.
Speaker Q No. What is God?
Speaker E Nobody knows what God is.
Speaker R Oh, so God can't be, can't fit into one category? No, he can't. So it'd be ridiculous to put him into one category or another category. There should be a, there should be a term for that. If you can't put a, God into one specific category.
Speaker E Yeah, God having multiple sexes and all of this.
Speaker R So God doesn't have multiple sexes. What is God?
Speaker E He said God is, I am
Todd Herman and expresses himself to the masculine throughout this entire book, every single time.
The Tower of Babbling: Discussing Sexual Predation, Epstein Files, and the Prophet Muhammad's Marriage
And Jesus prayed to God the Father and Jesus was and is part of the triune Godhead. Last sound bites in today's tar babbling. this is a. Cam Higby was talking to a young woman about the disgusting act of a man having sexual relations with a nine year old girl. And listen to how he does this. This young woman is wearing a headscarf, by the way, to
Jeff Chamblee the most recent Epstein files drop. Oh, Yeah, I. Did you see that Trump had intercourse with a nine year old? Yeah, I did. So disgusting, right?
Speaker F It
Jeff Chamblee is, yeah. It was actually the Prophet Muhammad. And Sahil Bakar 5130's wife talked about how she was married at 6 and consummated at 9.
Speaker F Okay. You
Todd Herman still think it's gross she walks away? It's very gross when President Trump does it, which he didn't. But, I'm just going to walk away when you say the Prophet Muhammad did it, quoting the Quran. And that's a wrap for today's tower babbling.
Speaker T You don't have a choice. Normalcy only returns when we largely vaccinated the entire global population.
Authoritarian Demands for Vaccination and Denial of Healthcare for Unvaccinated Individuals
Speaker U You need to get vaccinated, and if you don't, you are going to die. If you're
Speaker V willing to walk among us unvaccinated, you are an enemy. You
Speaker W have no right not to be vaccinated.
Speaker X They should be removed from the
Speaker Y hospital. Those who refuse to be vaccinated should be denied health care.
Jeff Chamblee That was the Tower of Babylon on a disciples view.
Todd Herman On a personal note today, a little bit of a departure personal note, just, just because of what we're facing in terms of this election.
The Consequence of Not Voting: A Vision of Judgment Day and the Importance of Stewarding God's Truth
And this just, this vision just came to me, just as we're wrapping up the program. You know, all of us are going to face judgment Day. and I think about the book of Revelation where the Lord Jesus is talking to the various churches, gives him a compliment, and then says, but I have this against you. you know, you departed your great love for the church. Totally paraphrasing here. You became lukewarm. I wanted to spit you out of my mouth. Remember these, these, these conversations? So we're going to have that conversation. You know, there's, there's levels of reward in heaven. So we're going to have these conversations though. We're saved. And I was just thinking of this in terms of voting. Imagine, the conversation if you're among the people, Christians who choose to not vote, maybe to teach DC a lesson or because you just can't bring yourself to choose the lesser of two evils. I'm begging you, you'll pray about that and make the decision to vote because I believe that's what God wants. I was just, just thinking of this scenario, you know, you're saved. I'm saved. I'm sure that I will hear from the Lord Jesus about, hey, you're here. There's some things I have against you, forgiven, but I'm going to talk with you about them. And I was thinking of this. If Christians stay home, Democrats win. And any and all. Now abortions are allowed even after the point of birth, which is clearly not an abortion. But that's what they've done in Minnesota. You don't have to help a baby who survived an abortion. Just, quote, let them die by not feeding them or giving them warmth. What if, in that moment of, judgment, Jesus introduced you to the souls of aborted children, and yet I have this against you? These were killed. What about people who are never allowed to be fruitful and multiply because they were mutilated, through gender surgeries as children? What if he brings them forward? I love you. You're in the new heaven and new earth. You're saved. And have this against you. These children of mine were not allowed to be fruitful and multiply. How will that feel? I believe Christians have to vote. And if you need help deciding for whom to vote, go to ivoterguide.com in the beginning was the Word. The Word was with God. The Word was God. Because we believe, we speak because he first loved us. We speak His Word. We walk in the path of Jesus Christ to make disciples of all nations until God grants us permission to speak again together. May his peace wash over you. On behalf of Randy in afr, I'm Todd Herman, and this has been a disciples Sam.
Exploring the Health Benefits of Cacao and Its Comparison to Modern Chocolate
Todd Herman Guys, what if the healthiest drink you had every day tasted like chocolate? Properly prepared, ceremony grade Cacao is completely different from the processed junk chocolate. And researchers studying the Kuna people found dramatically lower rates of heart problems among those who drink cacao daily. I drink it. It is absolutely natural and it just fills your body with goodness. Modern chocolate processing destroys up to 60% of cacao's beneficial compounds. Ceremonial GR cacao preserves that these are naturally occurring flavanols. It contains 63 times more oxidants than broccoli. And theobromine provides smoother, longer lasting energy than caffeine without the jitters. I take cacao bliss in the afternoon. I drink it warm. Here's what you can do.

A Disciples View: Discussing Election Day, Voting, and Concerns About Election Integrity
Jeff Chamblee Welcome to a Disciples View with Todd Herman.
Todd Herman When the God of the universe created the world, he didn't snap his fingers or wink his eye. The Lord spoke and go said, let there be light, because we believe, we speak about the happenings in this world, mindful that our true home is with Jesus Christ in his kingdom. I'm, Todd Herman. Welcome to a Disciples View. Quite a weekend, for news and quite a weekend to think about the fact that we have an election tomorrow and many of you have already voted. Praise God for that, that you've done that. many of you are waiting like I am until election day and I can't wait to go down to the polls with my wife. I feel good about the way the elections are run here. I prayed over our ballots and I encourage you to pray over yours. I do think there's attempts already to normalize the theft of the election. PolitiFact and PBS wants to remind us that it's perfectly normal to have to wait a long time to know who won elections. And this is the way they put it. When will we know 2026 midterm election results? It may take some time, but that's normal. If you go to bed on election night and don't know who won A midterm congressional race, that's normal. And if you wake up the next morning and find that a candidate who is behind hours earlier has since pulled ahead, that's normal, too. That won't stop some politicians, their allies, from spreading misinformation during vote counting. So they've already decided in advance that there's, no issues with the elections and no attempts to cheat. None of this is a reason to not vote. It's a reason to vote.
Christian Duty to Vote on Key Issues: From Child Mutilation to Election Integrity and International Politics
The primary and most important reason to vote, if you're a Christian, is because the world is asking, what do the ambassadors of Jesus Christ say about chemically and surgically mutilating children, about abortion anytime, anywhere, about teaching perverse, pornographic sex ed in the schools, about instituting racism into the law so that you can hire people based solely upon race, not upon what they're capable of doing. Ongoing, continuing debt that will never be paid back. All of these issues are on the ballot. A party that hates religious liberty unless it's religious liberty for Muslims, all this is on the ballot. And the world is asking, what do the, the people who are ambassadors for Christ think? And yes, there are going to be attempts to steal elections, that's obvious. You have separate countries like Washington, the former state of Washington, the former state of California, now very much separate countries who are refusing to take illegal immigrants off of the voter rolls and not even to, not, not, not even to promise to not count their votes or to not count them, but to sequester them for further investigation. They refuse. So there are going to be these attempts and incidentally to PolitiFact and PBS. No, it is not normal to wait days and sometimes weeks to know who won an election. It was normal for the last several decades to count the votes after the election polls closed and announce the winner. That's been the case for most of our lives. I'm nearly 60. It's been the case for most of my life. In fact, it was very, very abnormal when the Al Gore situation with George W. Bush was unfolding and they were attempting to find any and all votes for Al Gore, such as when someone voted for all the offices, save president, they didn't make a vote for president, literally held up paper ballots to light and used sometimes magnifying glasses to see if they could find any indication that a voter's little, ah, little pen thing that used as a stylus. It wasn't a pen, but it was something you'd poke through the ballot if the stylist had brushed the area by Al Gore's name that was abnormal and everybody knew it was abnormal. This only became so called normal when vote by mail came along. And that form of vote fraud was perfected in the separate country of Washington, where everybody who's ever looked at this even casually understands that election was stolen from the Republican Dina Rossi and given to the Democrat Krish Gregoire. So that was in the news. Go vote, because President Trump is seeking election integrity and you'll know them by their fruits.
Analysis of Poland's Political Situation and Refusal to Accept Muslim Immigrants Amidst EU Policies
Jesus Christ told us this about false teachers. You can apply that a little bit more broadly. Over the weekend, there was a attempted coup which is kind of ongoing in Poland. one of the officials there, who's a globalist, this Tusk, ordered a raid on the highest court in Poland while the President was away. And this is the definition of a coup. That's what this does. This Tusk guy did. Guess who celebrated that? Donald Tusk. The guy Tusk wrote on Twitter. Restoring the rule of law is our duty. After years of PIs led lawlessness. This is a difficult, process, sometimes painful, requires decisive action. There's no other way. Adam Kinzinger, remember him? Former Congressman Adam Kinzinger, the former congressman who was on the January 6 committee, who wanted everybody who ever met President Trump or wore a red hat put in prison for January 6th. He responds, Good job, Good job with the coup. So what has been the issue with Poland? They will not accept Muslim immigrants. Not in mass. They're ignoring the EU's drive to erase national borders and they speak openly about it. Islam is incompatible with the governing method of Poland. We won't, we won't import Islamists and you could turn it into race if you choose. But they didn't say Islamists with dark skin. They said Islamists because Islam is a political structure. It's not a faith, it's a political structure.
Examining Allegations of Illegal Immigrants on Voter Rolls and the Lack of Verification Processes
So when you see these things, you will know them by their fruits. You will know them by their fruits in states like Washington there, the Secretary of State has been asked about not removing illegal immigrants from the, voter rolls there. And this conversation unfolded. The, the, the federal government has revealed that there's at least 400 illegal immigrants on the voter rolls and they voted about 1500 times. So the Secretary of State on Como News,
Speaker C you say with a lot of confidence, the DOJ is just dead wrong about non citizens being on the voter rolls. But you also say the state's not checking. How can you make that claim that this is not a widespread issue when by your own admission, the state's not checking this?
Speaker D So because it's so rare in which actual non citizens vote. And if you compare, like the number of non citizens that have been caught, you know, the 15 or over the course since 1982 versus the other issues of fraud, or not really fraud, but mistakes that happen, like rejected, ballots due to signature. we have had cases where a widow,
Todd Herman he's filibustering. The important statement was at the beginning, they don't check. They don't know. They have no idea. None. How many illegal immigrants are in the voter rolls because they have no process to check it. The former Secretary of State of that separate country, Kim Wyman, was a Republican ish person who went to work for the people who ran Joe Biden. Kim told me to my face on my radio show, we do not have a method for checking to see if illegal immigrants are on the voter rolls. I said, the federal government has a list of Social Security numbers. You could check it against that. There's no way to do that. She also told me this. I said, I want to be able to inspect the way ballots are counted because you do this through software now. I'm going to give you a Freedom of Information act request to have some coding experts look into the codes, of these voting machines. You know what she told me? we can't give you that information. I said, freedom of Information Act. She said, no. The licensing agreement says that no one can ever look at the code. They can't be expected. This is not a reason to not vote. This is a reason to vote because only President Trump has really ever proceeded to demand election integrity. This is the Thurston County Auditor, Mary hall, who was asked about Steve Hobbs. You just heard him, the Secretary of State, admitting that they don't have any way to know if illegal immigrants are voting. she's at this press conference here, and the, the dictator of Washington State is there, Bob Ferguson.
Speaker E So we always receive accusations that non citizens are voting. And we have yet to really see any cases where people have been prosecuted.
Todd Herman Okay, prosecuted. There are people being prosecuted now for voting in your elections when they weren't legally allowed to do that.
Speaker E For being non citizens and voting. we keep very tight records in our voter registration database. We are a voter ID state.
Todd Herman No, you're not. We keep very tight records, but we have no idea if, someone's a citizen. Illegal immigrants get driver's licenses. Legal immigrants who are not citizens get driver's licenses. They get ballots mailed to them. And then she states, we are a voter ID state. No, you're not.
The Importance of Voting for Election Integrity and Addressing Taxation Without Representation Issues
They don't check voter id. This is not a reason to not vote. It's a reason to vote. You can wash, rinse, repeat this stuff in many, in, in Minnesota, in Chicago, in NewSong York, in Washington D.C. in California, in Colorado. If there's one issue that we should be voting for, it's that our elections should count and they should be as safe as possible and as fair as possible. Only Donald Jon Trump was pushing for that and only the Republican Party has been forced to push for that because there's plenty of Republicans who don't care about this stuff. This is from Santa Ana, California. Tyvet Fion admits that what one third of the city is what
Speaker F I think it goes to the core of what it means to be America, which is taxation without representation. And the reality is that a large number of our residents are undocumented, are paying taxes, do work in our communities and a part of our families.
Speaker G What would be your argument to the majority of Santana voters who voted down the, you know, the possibility of allowing non citizens to vote?
Speaker H My argument would be again, people don't feel represented by their government locally and federally. It's clear, or one, one of the reasons is because they're not allowed to vote. So this would this would change that. It gives our people powered side more ability to fight those special interests that, you know, represent people outside the
Speaker F city. I think that is the most American thing to do is to say that everybody who lives here who cares about this community has a voice. And by allowing non citizen residents, people who live here for 10 years, 20 years, 30 years, their whole lives, to have to be able to participate in our government makes our city safer, makes our city more m vibrant and makes our communities stronger. So that is my argument.
Todd Herman Crime makes us safer. Crime makes us stronger. Crime makes us more resilient. Up to one third of the residents of that city is illegal and they get ballots in the mail as well. None of this is a reason to not vote. It's a reason to vote.
The Gift of Truth, Financial Blind Spots in Retirement Accounts, and the Pillars of the American Economy
It may be the reason to vote. The biggest reason of all is that the Lord Jesus, in saving you and me and giving us the Holy Spirit has given us the gift of truth. We must steward every single gift the Lord gave us wisely. The world is asking, what's the truth about when life begins? If boys are girls and girls are boys, if racism is something that should be encoded in the law and if cheating should be a normal part of American elections. If you haven't voted yet, please go vote. We'll come Back on the Disciples View. Foreign. A lot of you guys know that, every Friday at my friend Zach Abraham, Chief Investment Officer, BO Capital on with me. Ah, for our faith filled finance segments. Zach has been noticing something about people's retirement accounts and it reveals a blind spot. And a lot of people, even financial managers and even some fiduciaries are, are just blind to something. They're so focused on AI, they're so focused on sugar highs in the stock market and not really digging into what is, what's, what's driving this. Guys, it's government spending, it's data center building. Those are the two pillars holding up the American economy. But there's a massive blind spot and it might be in your retirement account. My friend Zach Abraham will give you three free, no obligation consultations where they will look at your account with a fine tooth comb and they'll tell you what they find. If they can help you, they'll make that clear. If you're in good stead, they won't even let you change. It's easy to sign up.

Encouragement to Vote for Godly Candidates Using iVoterGuide and Understanding Christian Duty
Welcome back to Disciples View. I'm Todd Herman. We'll get to the tower of babbling in a personal note in the next segment. And it is the day before election day, at least for those of us who vote in person. And many of you have already voted, Praise God. Please pray over your ballots. if you're having any trouble at all making a decision or just want to make sure that you're voting for the most godly candidate, get over to ivoterguide.com I voterguide.com which is a, investment the American Family foundation has made. And it's an extraordinarily well done website. I used to build websites like that. Well, not build them, but I had teams that built things like this for me when I was the chief digital strategist at the RNC in in Washington D.C. so from my eyes it's an incredible website. It gets down to judicial races, initiatives, initiatives to the people. Ivoterguide.com so do you have a 1 reason for voting? And if you are not voting and you're a Christian, would you please, please pray about that and just consider what you've been given by the Lord Jesus is an ambassadorship in his Kingdomnomics. We've all been told through the, the interaction that the Lord Jesus had with Peter, if you love me, feed my sheep. by this, people will know you, are my followers, that you love one another. If we love one another, we love him. We're going to feed his sheep and we're counted among his sheep. We're ambassadors of the King, Lord Jesus. We are to be in this world, but not of it. We are to be good citizens in this world. If we're persecuted, let it be for doing, right versus doing wrong. All of these things add up to we have to vote. So if you are not voting and you're a Christian, please change your mind, pray about it. I think if you pray and open your heart, I think your mind will change. I think that you'll end up voting. Ah, yeah. I hope that's the case.
Reasons to Vote: Election Integrity, Abortion, and the Democrat Party's Agenda to Decimate the Family Unit
So a single reason to vote. We talked last segment about election integrity and that President Trump is really the only president in history who's made election integrity a hallmark of his movement. And he drugged the Republican Party, kicking and yelling and scratching into this because they don't want to talk about election integrity because they're still of the mind that if you even suggest there's something funky with our elections where you don't check voter id, most signatures are never checked. Ballots are allowed to be counted when they arrive after the election with no post date, et cetera. It's very clear to anyone who's looked at this even casually, the system at least invites fraud. That's a reason to vote. Another single reason that people have is abortion. Yes, abortion at any time the Democrat Party wants. That's not a political issue. The Lord, as we are his ambassadors here, we have to vote, even if just on that issue, alone, and vote for candidates who back the right for a baby to stay alive in the womb. Here's another. The Democrat party, in concert with the sexual left in the churches, wants to utterly decimate the family. The family unit, just as open borders is designed to decimate nation states to make it possible to have a one world government, which of course the Bible tells us will happen. We don't have to cheer for it. Tearing down the guardrails on sexuality will destroy the family.
The Sexual Left's Attack on the Family Unit and the Expansion of LGBTQ+ Identities and Behaviors
Satan hates the family unit because God created the family unit. The sexual left hates the family unit because they want power to continue to push the bounds of what is acceptable sexual behavior or gender behavior. Notice that it's now lgb, so called tqa. You know about the A Right. Do you know what The A is you don't. The A is where you get to choose your age. Oh no, I'm not a pedophile. I identify as an 11 year old girl, says the 56 year old man. Therefore I'm not a pedophile. The Democrats by virtue of the fact of trying to force people to pretend men are women, which they are still doing. They are still doing wrong sex surgery and hormone procedures on kids. They're just pretending now that it's not because of the gender lies. They're just pretending that it is a, an existing physical medical condition. They have a hormone shortage. You know, this girl just doesn't have enough testosterone. So they're still doing this. It's part and parcel of the left, the sexual left pharma. All of whom who hate the human body. This is a reason to vote the changing on sexual mores. This is out of Colorado.
Concerns Over Judges Releasing Criminals and the Democrat Party's Pro-Crime Stance on Sexual Violence
So a guy gets caught in one of those stings meant to catch sexual predators. And listen to this. Believe
Todd Herman that they made the motion saying hey, I have a prepaid trip to Florida. however they left out the detail of boarding a Disney cruise. The
Jeff Chamblee court approved the trip, but police say Krennich never made it on board. Disney flagged him before the cruise and refused. Was
Todd Herman the guy is caught in a. In, in a. In a sting to catch guys who are seeking to in inflict their. The sexual lust in the bodies of children. Goes before a judge and says look, I've got this prepaid cruise. can I go? And the judge is sure. This guy's name is Apparently Jonathan Cranish, 41 Centennial, Colorado posted a $75,000 bond. That's a lot. And it was Disney who stopped him from going. Aurora police sergeant Joseph Sullivan. The end result of whether they met with a child or police officer. It doesn't matter. The intent was to go meet with a child. Right. For sexual purposes, guys. All across the country there are spiritually captured judges who are making decisions like this. All across the western states and in places like NewSong York, which is now run by Zaran Mamdani, who evidently, very evidently hates the United States of America. In places like Minnesota, people who are committing acts of sexual violence against kids, physical acts are being let out. I, man, I don't even know if I should tell you this.
The Horrific Consequences of the Democrat Party's Pro-Crime Policies, Including Lowering the Age of Consent
No, I. Leave it there. Whatever you're thinking about letting violent sexual criminals out. I, I could, I could, I could just, I could chill you with what just happened in the separate country, Washington State. I can't bring myself to say it on afr, I'll say this. A, A young gang member sexually assaulted a boy, beat him nearly to death, was let out by judge, and then took another boy's life in one of the most unspeakable acts you could ever, ever imagine. And this happens all the time. The Democrat party has become pro crime. They have become in favor of lowering the age of consent in the separate country of California. Scott Wiener, who's probably going to take Nancy Pelosi's place in the House, passed a law to make it legal for an adult man, 18 or 23 or 25, to impress his sexual wants upon the bodies of children. So long as there's, quote, only a seven year age difference, that's a reason to vote.
Critique of False Teachings on Polygamy and the Democrat Party's Embrace of the Sexual Left's Agenda
This is a pastor in Cleveland, so called pastor named Israel Ford. But he's obviously a false teacher. but this is something that's going on courtesy of the sexual left in the Democrats. He explained to his lost congregation why he started a polygamous relationship.
Todd Herman I mean, okay, how
Speaker K did you bring yourself to a place to say to. And. And it is beautiful. Yes. So, and you. And knowing that can make her possibly feel like she's not enough or she's not attractive. What was going on in your head? I can't. How did you have that conversation? Tell me how you felt about that and how it came about.
Speaker L Okay. So honestly, my wife, she's different from most women to where she doesn't mind if I look. Or she was like, oh my God, she cute. And she let me, you know, when other women, you know, they'll be like, what you looking at men, they'd be acting like they have to look somewhere else. I never had to do that with her. So it went from there into like, Shakayla always being around, helping her when she was sick, cooking, cleaning, just doing different things. And to the point where, you know, when I fell in love with Shakayla, I told her, I said, you know, let me talk to you honestly from my heart. I said, I can't see Shaquilla going anywhere. And I said, I don't want to live outside the covenant. I don't want to live outside, like, just being sinful. And I said, so I want to pray about it.
Todd Herman So he prayed about it. And in his mind, God said, have a polygamous relationship. That wasn't God. It is for this reason that a man leaves his family and clings to his wife, singular. And they become one flesh, singular. This is adultery. The Bible makes that very clear. But in the Minds of Democrat party organizers. Lgb so called T and then Q and now A for age. You can decide your age. When nothing is forbidden, all is allowed. And this is the theory of the Democrat party. I Voterguide.com is your source to make sure you're voting for the most godly candidate. And Christians in my mind absolutely have to vote. So this pastor false teacher claimed they all prayed and fasted for 40 days before making their decision to become a throuple. Do you believe that? They didn't eat for 40 days
Speaker L and I actually started praying. I started fast. As a matter of fact, all three of us, we prayed and fast for 40 days. So we, we agreed to do a 40 day fast. And in the middle of the other fast, God spoke to me and to Shakayla. We had a dream on the exact same night of God telling us, oh yeah, right. Because God spoke to us. And the crazy part about it, he spoke to us and he didn't speak to her. M but I told her, I said I would never marry her until you are okay with it. Because my I can't have two wives if I get a second one and the first one walk away, I'm still back at square root one. And so I had to wait. And so after God gave me the okay, she was like, well, I just need a little time. Need a little time. And then when she was okay, then we crossed over.
Todd Herman So God was not okay. Never happened that God was okay. Now I know it's election season and are we dealing with the distraction? No. I'll remind you of something in, just a second. Yet another reason to vote. Just to close this off, the host of this podcast asked this false teaching, false fake pastor this very simple question.
The Importance of Living by the Word and the Dangers of Inviting Sin into the Home
He asked this pastor named Israel Ford. Why?
Speaker K So Israel why?
Speaker L Wow, that is a loaded question. I came out for two reasons. The first one is because, I believe that if you do something and you preach something, you should live it. And so, I think transparency is everything. The thing about it is, is that I know that I can't help people if I'm not being the example. And I started hearing the stories. I started meeting men who, they wanted a second wife. But it was like, but I don't know this. It's like they don't know the scriptures. I did it because I searched the scriptures and I got confirmation for me. And then, When I preach it, when I teach it, you can't help but be like, you're right because I'm a word man. I don't Hoop, I don't have a clothes my church crew because I preach, I pray, and I do prophesy, but it's like none of that matters. It's just the Word. And it's like if you don't get it in the word, that means God has. God hasn't given it to you. And I believe that you have to have a confirmation from God. If you do something outside of faith, it is sin.
Todd Herman You didn't find in the scripture where it said you shall have one wife or probably multiple wives. You didn't find that in scripture. David's, house was destroyed because of his insatiable desire for other women. His family was destroyed. His sons tried to kill him.
The Consequences of Not Voting and the Allegations Against James Jimmy Talarico Regarding Online Activity
One of his sons, raped one of his stepsisters. You invite sin into the house. We Christians, if we don't vote, if we don't go express God's truth given to us, as a gift, if we don't steward that all the way into the voting booth, we are inviting more satanic behavior into the extended family of America, which affects God's family, the body of Christ. Now, I want to be careful with this story because it deserves very, very careful consideration. Town Hall.com got a hold of a, hacking of some data that was hacked from a sexual hookup website called fling.com and in 2001, they had a data breach. Turns out that one of the records that was, that was found in this data breach has ties, they claim, to James Jimmy Talarico. Did this happen in 2010? He was far from famous. Sixteen years ago. He was getting ready to start teaching sixth grade. So this email address, Mohawk787 matched an IP address that was, that it shows up online on online video game records tied to his sister, Talarico's sister. Talarico's attorneys admit, yes, that IP address is tied to James Jimmy Talarico's sister. But James Jimmy Tallerico had nothing to do with it. I don't believe that. And among the things that this account was looking for in town hall suggests this was James Jimmy Tallerico. Fetish group, sex, sexual relations, online flirting. Now, that is not proven. And his lawyers vehemently denied that it was James Jimmy Talarico. And, look, Ken Paxton has his own issues, but he is not a false teacher. He does not wear a Jesus skin suit. He is not part of the lgb, so called T. Q and now a movement to create it, make it possible for people to identify as an age, therefore no longer be pedophiles. I voterguide.com Please get out and vote as Jesus would have you do. We'll come back on the Disciples View.
Thanking Sponsors and Discussing Edward Dowd's Analysis of COVID-19 Lockdowns and Their Economic Impact
Hey, we want to take a moment, to thank our sponsor, PreBorn. When a mother meets her baby on ultrasound and hears their heartbeat, it's a divine connection. And the majority of the time she will choose life. But they can't do it without our help. Preborn needs us, the pro life community, to come alongside them. One ultrasound is just $28. To donate, dial pound 250 and say the word baby or visit preborne.com afr. Welcome back to Disciples View. We're going to get to the tower babbling in a personal note. And, I could say much more if that would be kind of a silly radio thing and plus much more day, before election day, many of you voted early. I'm thankful for that. If you're struggling for whom to vote or there's issues like initiatives or judicial positions, and they're confusing, please get over to ivoterguide.com this is an initiative of the American Family Association. It's an incredible resource. And if you're sick of me saying it, there's only one more day of me saying this for a little while. For two years, it's incumbent upon Christians to vote. I believe we have to vote. get to a cleanup item here. Do you know who Ed Dowd is? Edward Dowd. so back in the, during the, the Cove lockdown era, in the, in the height of that psychological operation against us, there was a guy named Edward Dowd. And Edward is a math guy. He's.
Critique of COVID-19 Lockdowns, Government Spending, and BlackRock's Role in Economic Manipulation
He's great with big numbers. He'd been a portfolio manager for BlackRock. And he began to notice that number, that none of the numbers made sense, that. Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute. We're shutting down most of small businesses, a third of the American economy. We're shutting it down for a disease for which there's a 99.86% survival rate. That doesn't make any sense. So he began to look at this from a numbers perspective. Why are we doing this now? Remember, he'd been a portfolio manager at BlackRock. Well, BlackRock is one of the reasons they did this. BlackRock said we have to find a way to inject about $1.5 billion into the economy. And they did that during the lockdown. The COVID relief monies and the Federal Reserve invented debt twice. $750 million.
Analysis of COVID-19 Vaccine Data and Excess Mortality Rates, Highlighting Potential Harm from Protocols and Shots
They gave that to the treasury, who turned it into fake money. And Then illegally gave that fake money to companies owned by BlackRock and Vanguard, who then turned around and purchased storefronts and assets that had been destroyed during the Cove lockdown. This is one of the reasons the Cove lockdown happened and why BlackRock pushed for it and Vanguard pushed for it. So Ed Dowd just looked at this from a numbers perspective. Then he just started to take his math skills and apply them to other areas of the lockdowns, such as studying the numbers behind masks. They don't make sense. They cause more harm than good. This is what the numbers say. Remdemesivir causes more harm than good. That's what the numbers say. So people will say, why do you listen to this guy? He's not a physician. You don't need to be a physician to study numbers. So now he's looking at the COVID shots. And former BlackRock portfolio manager Ed Dowd warned that excess mortality data reveals two distinct phases of COVID era deaths. And here he is,
Edward Dowd I'm a Wallnua street guy, and we use, quantitative skills to figure out what's going on in the markets. And when we saw what was happening, well, first of all, I refused to take the shot personally. And then when it was mandated, I became quite annoyed. and I had a suspicion that because it was an emergency, new novel technologies, gene therapy that had never been tested on humans, but that, oh, hey, let me keep my eyes on something. And I said, it'll show up in funeral home results and insurance company results. And sure enough, it started in 2021 showing up. And, you know, after the shots, there was, there was a mix shift from, excess. There were excess deaths in 2020 in the US of about 500,000, Americans. you could probably say now that we have a lot of, testimony and whatnot that was due to bad hospital protocols. That was kill shot number one. Bad, bad, protocols.
Todd Herman Okay, kill shot number one. He describes it. I, concur. The bad hospital protocols. Forcing people onto ventilators when they didn't need them, forcing them onto Remdemsevir, which has almost no possibility of helping anybody, and then forcing them onto painkillers, which lowers your respiration rate, and then eventually forcing all too many onto a three drug cocktail that you would use for an end stage hospice patient. That's part of the hospital protocol. So now, Ed Dowd described a fundamental shift in all this. In 2021.
Edward Dowd Then in 2021, the vaccine rolled out and we had another 500,000 excess deaths.
The Shift in COVID-19 Deaths from Older to Working-Age Populations and the Suspected Role of Vaccines
But there was A mixed shift from old to young. Mostly old people died in 2020. Then working age Americans started to die. And the numbers of excess deaths, in 2020, one rose from one, hundred 24,000, working age people to like 240,000 in 2021. So there was a mix shift. So the excess death number stayed the same, but the young started dying.
Todd Herman So now Ed Dowd's looking at the numbers again. Remember, he's just a numbers guy, but if you're a really good numbers guy, numbers can tell you a lot. And Dowd explain why the anomaly of deaths in young people couldn't be ignored.
Edward Dowd And you, look, you know, I'm not a scientist or a doctor, but I'm pretty sure there's no virus that attacks young people and mutates to attack young people. So we surmised it was the, vaccine. So we did a lot of research on our website, financetechnologies, uh,.com with a ph. You can go to our humanity, project section where we outline all this. And we did a lot of work detailing what was going on in 2021. There, was 40% excess deaths in the group life policyholders, that ages, 24 to 25 to 44. And it peaked out at 80% in September of 2021. That was all due to the mandates. So clearly. And again, I said this, you know, four or five years ago. And, at the time I said it was very controversial. I think, you know, as times rolled, on and more and more is coming out, we've been proven right.
Todd Herman Right. It was the shots. The, Covid shots killed a bunch of young people. The excess Deaths, people ages 25 through 44, excess deaths went from 40% excess deaths, people who should not have died, to 80% increase shouldn't have died.
Accusations of Murder Against Public Health Officials and Pharmaceutical Companies Regarding COVID-19 Vaccines
Tony Fauci, Bill Gates, Rochelle, Walensky, everybody involved in this. Francis Collins, Robert Redfield, who was too cowardly to speak out then, is speaking out now. Praise God. They murdered people. The heads of Pfizer and Moderna. They murdered people. God will judge, and his judgment is going to be perfect and his judgment is going to be permanent. I hope they repent. On this program, we thank the Lord for placing supposedly wise people on tall towers of shaking sand with their feature called the Tower of Babbling.
The Tower of Babbling: Critiquing Globalist Agendas, Perverse Families, and Government Financial Policies
Jeff Chamblee You know, about the biblical truth of the Tower of Babel. A, disciple's view presents the Tower of Babylon.
Speaker N Well, the answer is, listen to Bill Gates. Bill's right around about a lot of things. And he's at the steep learning curve in global hell.
Todd Herman Yeah, no, I'll not, thanks. three sound bites in today's tower babbling. That's almost always the case. One of the, J.B. pritzker is the boss man dictator over in Illinois, and he's a member of one of the most perverse and harmful families in history. their family started selling their inherited wealth in hotels and investing in medical devices and pharmaceuticals at the same time as J.B. pritzker's brother, who is a man who pretends to be a woman and has been surgically, apparently surgically, very much, hormonally altered, was running the background group, the Human Rights Campaign to Trans Kids. So why not sell your hotel stock and purchase surgical supplies? J.B. pritzker has an interesting idea about how to lower your property taxes.
Eric Metaxas We're also providing local government the funds to decide which roads need the most
Todd Herman work
Eric Metaxas in local areas. This capital bill will relieve some of the pressure,
Todd Herman therefore,
Eric Metaxas on
Todd Herman property
Eric Metaxas taxes. We're connecting
Todd Herman families
Eric Metaxas and businesses
Todd Herman to the limitless
Eric Metaxas possibilities
Todd Herman of
Eric Metaxas the Internet.
Todd Herman So raising your gas taxes will lower your property taxes. Got it. Did we just talk about math?
The Tower of Babbling: Debating God's Nature and Defending James Jimmy Talarico's Views on God's Gender
Next sound bite in today's tower babbling. The Daily show, which is, an atheist show almost across the board. Guy there named Jonathan Klepper, he wants you up, to hear his defense of James Jimmy Talarico pretending God is non binary.
Speaker P This non binary. I don't believe in that one bit.
Speaker E I don't like Talarico. Why is that? He would say God is non binary.
Speaker Q That
Speaker E is not true.
Speaker Q No. What is God?
Speaker E Nobody knows what God is.
Speaker R Oh, so God can't be, can't fit into one category? No, he can't. So it'd be ridiculous to put him into one category or another category. There should be a, there should be a term for that. If you can't put a, God into one specific category.
Speaker E Yeah, God having multiple sexes and all of this.
Speaker R So God doesn't have multiple sexes. What is God?
Speaker E He said God is, I am
Todd Herman and expresses himself to the masculine throughout this entire book, every single time.
The Tower of Babbling: Discussing Sexual Predation, Epstein Files, and the Prophet Muhammad's Marriage
And Jesus prayed to God the Father and Jesus was and is part of the triune Godhead. Last sound bites in today's tar babbling. this is a. Cam Higby was talking to a young woman about the disgusting act of a man having sexual relations with a nine year old girl. And listen to how he does this. This young woman is wearing a headscarf, by the way, to
Jeff Chamblee the most recent Epstein files drop. Oh, Yeah, I. Did you see that Trump had intercourse with a nine year old? Yeah, I did. So disgusting, right?
Speaker F It
Jeff Chamblee is, yeah. It was actually the Prophet Muhammad. And Sahil Bakar 5130's wife talked about how she was married at 6 and consummated at 9.
Speaker F Okay. You
Todd Herman still think it's gross she walks away? It's very gross when President Trump does it, which he didn't. But, I'm just going to walk away when you say the Prophet Muhammad did it, quoting the Quran. And that's a wrap for today's tower babbling.
Speaker T You don't have a choice. Normalcy only returns when we largely vaccinated the entire global population.
Authoritarian Demands for Vaccination and Denial of Healthcare for Unvaccinated Individuals
Speaker U You need to get vaccinated, and if you don't, you are going to die. If you're
Speaker V willing to walk among us unvaccinated, you are an enemy. You
Speaker W have no right not to be vaccinated.
Speaker X They should be removed from the
Speaker Y hospital. Those who refuse to be vaccinated should be denied health care.
Jeff Chamblee That was the Tower of Babylon on a disciples view.
Todd Herman On a personal note today, a little bit of a departure personal note, just, just because of what we're facing in terms of this election.
The Consequence of Not Voting: A Vision of Judgment Day and the Importance of Stewarding God's Truth
And this just, this vision just came to me, just as we're wrapping up the program. You know, all of us are going to face judgment Day. and I think about the book of Revelation where the Lord Jesus is talking to the various churches, gives him a compliment, and then says, but I have this against you. you know, you departed your great love for the church. Totally paraphrasing here. You became lukewarm. I wanted to spit you out of my mouth. Remember these, these, these conversations? So we're going to have that conversation. You know, there's, there's levels of reward in heaven. So we're going to have these conversations though. We're saved. And I was just thinking of this in terms of voting. Imagine, the conversation if you're among the people, Christians who choose to not vote, maybe to teach DC a lesson or because you just can't bring yourself to choose the lesser of two evils. I'm begging you, you'll pray about that and make the decision to vote because I believe that's what God wants. I was just, just thinking of this scenario, you know, you're saved. I'm saved. I'm sure that I will hear from the Lord Jesus about, hey, you're here. There's some things I have against you, forgiven, but I'm going to talk with you about them. And I was thinking of this. If Christians stay home, Democrats win. And any and all. Now abortions are allowed even after the point of birth, which is clearly not an abortion. But that's what they've done in Minnesota. You don't have to help a baby who survived an abortion. Just, quote, let them die by not feeding them or giving them warmth. What if, in that moment of, judgment, Jesus introduced you to the souls of aborted children, and yet I have this against you? These were killed. What about people who are never allowed to be fruitful and multiply because they were mutilated, through gender surgeries as children? What if he brings them forward? I love you. You're in the new heaven and new earth. You're saved. And have this against you. These children of mine were not allowed to be fruitful and multiply. How will that feel? I believe Christians have to vote. And if you need help deciding for whom to vote, go to ivoterguide.com in the beginning was the Word. The Word was with God. The Word was God. Because we believe, we speak because he first loved us. We speak His Word. We walk in the path of Jesus Christ to make disciples of all nations until God grants us permission to speak again together. May his peace wash over you. On behalf of Randy in afr, I'm Todd Herman, and this has been a disciples Sam.
On the eve of the 2026 midterm elections, Todd Herman urges Christian listeners to vote, pray over their ballots, and consider how their faith should shape their civic responsibilities. He discusses election integrity, voter registration and ballot-counting concerns, and points listeners to iVoterGuide for help researching candidates and ballot measures.
The episode also examines issues Herman says are at stake in the election, including abortion, religious liberty, education, family policy, and the treatment of children. He comments on political developments in Poland, a controversial pastor’s defense of polygamy, and claims about COVID-era excess deaths raised by former BlackRock portfolio manager Ed Dowd. The show closes with its “Tower of Babbling” segment and a personal reflection on faith, voting, and accountability.
