Joining me in studio this morning is Wesley Wildmon. Good morning, Wesley.

>> Wesley Wildmon: Good morning.

>> Tim Wildmon: Fred Jackson, Martin Chase, Tim and Krish Woodward.

>> Chris Woodward: Hello.

>> Tim Wildmon: Now I, mentioned yesterday about, on a personal note, going to the national, baseball tournament in Lafayette, Louisiana to watch my 10 year old grandson play and my 30. How old are you?

>> Wesley Wildmon: 37.

>> Tim Wildmon: 37 year old son coach. So. And they brought home the gold. So I give it up, give it up. Clap.

>> Wesley Wildmon: Which is why I wasn't in the office yesterday. I was still celebrating.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah, you, you celebrated and got home to finding out your.

>> Wesley Wildmon: Oh, yeah, I came on, my AC was broke in the middle.

>> Tim Wildmon: So here you are. You won the national championship in baseball for 10 year olds in for, for this league, the U trip, let's say just on cloud nine.

>> Fred Jackson: That's right.

>> Tim Wildmon: Drive, drive six, seven hours home. Everybody's smiling.

>> Wesley Wildmon: They were, we were.

>> Tim Wildmon: Get home to your house. It's August 3rd. Walk in and no AC.

>> Wesley Wildmon: 87 degrees red bring you right back down to earth. Chelsea walked in and then walked back out.

>> Tim Wildmon: Did you ever get your AC fixed? Because.

>> Wesley Wildmon: Yeah, they got it fixed this morning.

>> Tim Wildmon: Okay. praise God for that. That's just as important as winning a national championship.

>> Wesley Wildmon: Felt like it. When I got, when I got the report this morning that we won, we won in our ACs back on and.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah, yeah, yeah. If you don't have an AC in, Krish, you know, have you ever been out an ac?

>> Chris Woodward: I sure have. yeah, a couple of years ago our AC went out, and the guy came, to repair, turned out, you know, he got it back running. But it was, it was well into the 80s. I think it was probably the upper 80s inside the house.

>> Tim Wildmon: I'm going out.

>> Chris Woodward: We actually were without

>> Tim Wildmon: going to car

>> Chris Woodward: to sleep over the weekend. We were the only house in our little Neighborhood, that didn't have any electricity. And, so we were.

>> Tim Wildmon: What happened? Yeah, what happened there? I don't want to get personal.

>> Chris Woodward: When we had that storm move in, Friday night.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah.

>> Chris Woodward: Something happened. I don't know if it was a lightning strike on one of the light poles in our backyard, but it hit our pole and we didn't have any power.

>> Tim Wildmon: Oh, wow.

>> Chris Woodward: And then they showed up to help us, but they went to the wrong house and assumed, oh, okay, they're back on. And then they left.

>> Tim Wildmon: So you're telling me of all the houses in the neighborhood, yours was the one who was struck by lightning?

>> Chris Woodward: Yes. Yes.

>> Tim Wildmon: Not your house itself, but the light pole.

>> Chris Woodward: My daughter saw sparks coming off the pole.

>> Tim Wildmon: Would that be Bradford? Would that be a case where somebody's not living right?

>> Fred Jackson: I was just going to say, do

>> Tim Wildmon: you want to confess something going on?

>> Chris Woodward: I tell you, it will improve your prayer life. I actually think, you know how like churches sometimes will recognize veterans or first responders in the congregations. We should take a moment in the Bible Belt, here in the south, the Deep south, on Sundays to recognize AC repairmen.

>> Tim Wildmon: They are. Yeah, we can.

>> Chris Woodward: I mean, because when the church AC goes out, they find a guy.

>> Wesley Wildmon: Yeah. Yeah. Just like you find. Or just like we recognize those that serve in the military. Recognize those.

>> Tim Wildmon: There are repairmen on the front line.

>> Chris Woodward: I don't know how people did it back in the day here.

>> Tim Wildmon: That reminds me. Yeah. Back before air conditioning, you know, many churches use the old funeral, home fans.

>> Fred Jackson: Yes.

>> Tim Wildmon: You know, the little handheld fans that had the advertisements for the funeral home. Yeah.

>> Fred Jackson: Well, you know, I grew up in Nova Scotia where most people don't have air conditioner. Yeah.

>> Tim Wildmon: Because you don't need it.

>> Fred Jackson: So when it hits 75, everybody's really, you know, this is really hot.

>> Fred Jackson: But in church, it was the church bulletin.

>> Wesley Wildmon: Yes.

>> Tim Wildmon: The bulletin was the fan doubled as the fan.

North Mississippi went to Lafayette, Louisiana to compete in a national baseball tournament

>> Fred Jackson: Yeah. That was the signal to the preacher. Three points. Got to be out of here by noon.

>> Wesley Wildmon: So it wasn't necessarily that it was that hot in there. That was just a signal.

>> Fred Jackson: Yeah, that's.

>> Wesley Wildmon: Or both.

>> Fred Jackson: Well, it's both.

>> Wesley Wildmon: Okay.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah.

>> Fred Jackson: Because in that part of the world, when you reach 75 plus, man, this is miserable.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah. Preacher. If you don't have AC in the summertime anywhere in the country. Almost.

>> Fred Jackson: Yeah.

>> Tim Wildmon: And the preacher goes more than 20 minutes.

>> Fred Jackson: Yeah.

>> Tim Wildmon: He's going to get the look from probably many men.

>> Fred Jackson: And if people are sweating, it's not because of conviction.

>> Wesley Wildmon: I want to bring us back I got, I got one. kind of funny. There was a lot of memories made in Lafayette.

>> Tim Wildmon: You told me. In the baseball tournament.

>> Wesley Wildmon: In the baseball tournament, there was a lot of memories made. We can't do all of them, but two of them that come to mind. One of them is a little more funny, one's a little more spiritual.

>> Tim Wildmon: But let me set this up for those who don't know. You're the head coach, right. Of a all star team m that that represented North Mississippi, that went to Lafayette, Louisiana to compete in a national baseball tournament. So all over the country went down there and had a, like a five day tournament. And you guys ended up winning your division.

>> Wesley Wildmon: That's right.

>> Tim Wildmon: Which was 10 year, 10 years old in that particular division. So anyway, I just wanted people to know what, what the background is. Go ahead.

>> Wesley Wildmon: So, there was a lot of great baseball, a lot of great coaching, a lot of, memories made a lot of great conversations on the field. And I was talking to the Florida coach pre, game, just small talk while the coins being flipped and their players are taking infield, outfield. And I said, so, hey, I'm just curious. How'd you put your team together? And he goes, yeah, well, you know, we all, we've played against each other for a little while. We've known each other. So I just kind of took the best of four or five different teams in the area and put them together. and it worked out. We've had a couple practices and that's, you know, kind of down there. I said, okay. I said, so where are y' all from? He said, oh, we're all kind of from the same area. So I said, where is that? He goes, tampa. And I go, okay, well that's Tampa, Florida. Yeah.

>> Tim Wildmon: Three million people, right?

>> Wesley Wildmon: Yeah, that's what he said. So we're outward on that little area right there. And I said, okay. He's like, where are y' all from? I said, well, I said similar in the sense we're made up of about four or five different teams. We've known each other. That story's all the same for us too as well. I said, we're from Tupelo, Mississippi. And he said, where's that? And he was serious.

>> Tim Wildmon: He was, yeah, he was serious, yeah.

>> Wesley Wildmon: but it was, it was funny. So I just. And that the same thing happened with the Ohio coach. They were all from. Most of them were from the Columbus area, so that was funny. And then, another memory that was made. There was more of on the lines of, spiritual thing. One of our assistant coaches, Thomas Wriley, he had the idea that after we finished going into the final four games, that there were four games left. So he shared the story of David and Goliath and how there were five stones. He only needed one. He used one. And that they were four stones, left. And some commentators will say they were for his brothers and other things. And he said, well, since there's four. Since he had four stones left, we got four games left free. We got four giants we need to face slay before we win the last one. So with each win, we're going to throw a stone away. And we did that. And sure enough, it worked out to where we want. We threw a stone away, and my son Bennett was able to throw the final stone away. He threw it into center field as far as he could and got it in the road.

>> Tim Wildmon: And so God was on your side?

>> Wesley Wildmon: Well, you know, I. I wanted to set that up by saying that I'm very conscientious about misleading, the kids to believe that a victory has some correlation with your faith or anything like that, because you can win or lose the outcome. In fact, I always say that we do our best and lead the results up to God. And that's including losing. Winning, losing. But anyways, it did work out. our coaches did a great job of teaching, a lot of, lessons from the game of baseball.

>> Tim Wildmon: Character building.

We're going to play a clip from NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers on science issues

>> Wesley Wildmon: Character building. But those two were. Those two were very. One was funny and one was really,

>> Tim Wildmon: I prefer to learn character lessons. When you win.

>> Chris Woodward: Win.

>> Wesley Wildmon: That's right.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah. When you lose. Hard to swallow.

>> Chris Woodward: I appreciate you mentioning that God still loves you when he loses as a fan of our school.

>> Wesley Wildmon: Yeah, that's right. All right.

>> Tim Wildmon: You're listening to today's issue. Speaking of losers, Anthony Fauci would fall into that category. Dr. Anthony Fauci. We're going to talk about. We haven't talked about this. What happened Last week? He, made an appearance before the Congress in a committee.

>> Chris Woodward: Senate.

>> Tim Wildmon: Senate committee hearing. And he took the, Fifth Amendment many, many, many times.

>> Chris Woodward: 111 times.

>> Tim Wildmon: You counted them?

>> Chris Woodward: yes, and FOX did, too, because they kept flashing it up there.

>> Tim Wildmon: So, Frank Turek's with us. We're gonna Frank you with us there, brother.

>> Frank Turek: I plead the Fifth.

>> Tim Wildmon: Frank pleads the Fifth, whether he's with us or not, even though he's on the phone.

>> Frank Turek: Okay, I have to get another booster.

>> Speaker H: Is this.

>> Tim Wildmon: Are you mocking Fauci's accent? Where is he from? I don't even know.

>> Frank Turek: He's from Brooklyn, NewSong York.

>> Tim Wildmon: Okay.

>> Wesley Wildmon: He's from Brooklyn.

>> Tim Wildmon: He's a Fauci.

>> Wesley Wildmon: I have my.

>> Frank Turek: I, have my 15th booster.

>> Tim Wildmon: Okay. That's why you have three heads. So what we're about to do, we're going to play a clip here from NFL quarterback, help me out, Eryn Rodgers. Okay. We don't normally play Eryn Rodgers commentary on science and health. He's, had his own health issues for the last few years, but anyway, he's playing his last year. But Eryn Rodgers is outspoken on, some issues. Okay. So, he was asked on a radio show or a podcast about, he was asked about football, but he decided he didn't want to talk about football. He wanted to talk about Anthony Fauci. So we're going to play this clip just for fun, to hear what Eryn Rodgers says, and then we'll get, Frank to talk about what Eryn Rodgers is talking about. Go ahead.

>> Fred Jackson: Can you tell us about the mindset of coming into your last season? Like, that's a real thing.

>> Joseph Parker: It feels like.

>> Fred Jackson: Cuz. Is everything better? Is everything funner? Is everything more awesome? Like, how do you kind of view this year versus maybe the years of the past?

>> Tim Wildmon: I'm going to plead the fifth.

>> Abraham Hamilton III: Okay. Okay.

>> Tim Wildmon: You got to love that guy like that. Absolute coward, Tony. Absolute coward. Are you Kidding me?

>> Abraham Hamilton III: Yeah.

>> Joseph Parker: 111.

>> Tim Wildmon: You got a pardon and you're in front of you, and you pleaded over 100 times at the White House. What are you scared of, Tony? I thought you were the science.

>> Fred Jackson: Yeah.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah, I thought you were. I am science. And you get up there and you can't answer a question.

>> Wesley Wildmon: Yeah.

>> Tim Wildmon: What are we doing? And how much time did the network,

>> Fred Jackson: spend to that?

>> Tim Wildmon: How much time did they spend on my responses every week on my vaccination status on Taylor and Travis's wedding?

>> Speaker J: Yeah.

>> Chris Woodward: Did they have.

>> Tim Wildmon: Did I do even a minute. Did they do even a minute on Tony Fauci?

>> Fred Jackson: No, I didn't. I don't think I've heard, but they did.

>> Tim Wildmon: Now that's. That's. I think that's Pat McAfee show probably, isn't it?

>> Frank Turek: Yeah.

>> Tim Wildmon: Anyway, that's popular show and podcast Pat, McAfee show on ESPN. Eryn Rodgers, did he. What do you think about that, Frank, what he's talking about?

Tell me about Aaron Rodgers response to being forced to be vaccinated

>> Frank Turek: Well, you remember this had to go back to the 2021 season. Maybe. Maybe 20. 2020 season. Yeah. You know, he. Everyone was trying to force everyone to get vaccinated, and he said, I'm immunized. And what he meant by that was he didn't get the vaccine.

>> Tim Wildmon: But tell me about Eryn Rodgers response to being forced to be vaccinated.

>> Frank Turek: Yeah, yeah, they were trying to force him to do it and he didn't want to put it into his body. This thing hasn't been tested. And of course in retrospect we realize how many negative effects this so called vaccine have had, which really wasn't a vaccine, it was kind of gene therapy. It was never tested. Fauci actually delayed it. So it came out after the election of 2020. He didn't want Trump getting any credit for it turned out that he wanted apparently Biden to win because remember, Trump had that operation warp speed to try and get a vaccine for this thing.

>> Tim Wildmon: Right.

>> Frank Turek: And meanwhile it wasn't just Fauci doing this kind of nefarious stuff, trying to shut everybody up. But his boss, Francis Collins, who claims to be a Christian, was actively suppressing Stanford trained epidemiologists from saying, hey, we don't think this is a good idea. And even the Biden administration is putting pressure on social media platforms to censor people who were saying the vaccine has problems. And this is what Eryn Rodgers is pointing out now. And we know it has had problems and we know that certain heart, conditions have been triggered by this vaccine. and he, Rodgers, for a football player, was right five, five years ago when all this happened. And now he's basically taken a victory lap.

>> Tim Wildmon: I want to ask you this. I did not watch the hearings. Raise your hand.

>> Frank Turek: You didn't miss anything.

>> Tim Wildmon: I just saw clips. Fred. You watched most of it.

>> Fred Jackson: Most of it, yeah.

>> Tim Wildmon: M. Okay, My question is, Frank, did you watch a lot of it?

>> Frank Turek: I watched, probably the first half hour until he kept saying, on the advice of my counsel.

>> Tim Wildmon: Okay. I pleaded the Fifth.

>> Frank Turek: He wasn't gonna say anything. But notice, Tim, he started out with like a five minute opening statement.

>> Frank Turek: What happened to the fifth Amendment there? And he's already got a pardon. Why is he taking the Fifth?

>> Tim Wildmon: That's a good point. so Fred, that's my question in only seeing the highlights, or lowlights, if you call it, of Dr. Anthony Fauci's appearance there before the Senate committee. Why did he take the fifth Amendment so many times? that's just. What was the reason, for that?

>> Fred Jackson: Well, it was because the Republicans came, up with his diary, part of their investigation into what happened.

>> Tim Wildmon: Not his personal diary about what he had for dinner.

>> Fred Jackson: No, no, this Is what professional diary, what he kept on his government computers.

>> Tim Wildmon: Okay, that's. It wasn't personal diary that somebody seized.

>> Fred Jackson: No, no, no. it was. It was all about during the toing and froing and, you know, some of the entries that he put on his computer. I'm a rock star, you know, look, this one's talking about me. This one all. Ah. It certainly. What it unveiled was a guy with a massive ego and believing that he had so much power, and he was given a lot of power.

>> Tim Wildmon: And he did say, I am science.

>> Fred Jackson: He did say that I am science. And what it also revealed, this diary, was that basically, he was admitting it came from a lab. You know, and it was a confession of some type that the skeptics. About what he was doing at the time and what he was saying at the time. The skeptics were right.

>> Tim Wildmon: But what he was saying, Anthony Fauci, you guys, feel free to jump in here. what he was saying public. What is revealed in these diary entries is that what he was saying publicly was behind in private. He was not. he was inconsistent on what he said. For example, he. Dr. Anthony Fauci, who was, by the way, the. He, was the number one infectious doctor in the country. I forgot what the title is center, for.

>> Wesley Wildmon: I'll look it up.

>> Tim Wildmon: Anyway, so. So. So he was. Nobody knew who he was until Covid came along, and then, boom, he's the number one expert in the country that everybody's looking to. so, but the point is, he said, Anthony Fauci, originally, that this came from the COVID virus I'm talking about came from, bats in the wild in China.

>> Tim Wildmon: Okay. And that's what he believed.

>> Fred Jackson: Uh-huh.

>> Tim Wildmon: Okay. But he didn't want. But later, you guys, again, he admitted or said that, yes, it's quite possible it came privately. He was saying the Wuhan lab, which, I think everybody knew this came from a lab. Okay. This escaped from a lab. This didn't come from, bats in the wild. So, Fred, comment on that, then, Frank? Then, Go ahead, Wesley.

Anthony Fauci was subpoenaed to come before Senator Rand Paul

What was his title?

>> Wesley Wildmon: National director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.

>> Tim Wildmon: That's what he was, in charge of. Go ahead.

>> Fred Jackson: So, yeah, when the Republicans got this diary from his computers, his work computers, there was great inconsistency, as you pointed out, between what he was saying officially at the time and what he was saying to his friends.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yes. Colleagues.

>> Fred Jackson: So that's why he was subpoenaed to come before, Senator Rand Paul. Dr. Rand Paul, Chairman of the Homeland Security.

>> Tim Wildmon: Anthony and Rand.

>> Fred Jackson: No Christmas presents.

>> Tim Wildmon: They hang out, they golf, they fish.

>> Fred Jackson: So he's.

>> Wesley Wildmon: They may have at one point, but not anymore.

>> Fred Jackson: So Anthony Fauci shows up with two lawyers and reads the statements, has been pointed out. But then, from that point on, he takes the fifth because he knew he was going to be questioned about his entries into that diary. But it got a little ridiculous at some points. who was the Republican senator said, what color is your tie?

>> Chris Woodward: That was Josh Hawley.

>> Fred Jackson: Josh Hawley, what color is your tie?

>> Chris Woodward: Yeah.

>> Fred Jackson: Fauci. I take the fifth, right? On the vice of my lawyer. I take the fifth. What color is the carpet? On the advice of my lawyer, I take the fifth. He was made to look like a fool.

>> Wesley Wildmon: Yeah, right.

>> Chris Woodward: You know, the sad thing is, despite that being really good television, a lot of television networks that have news outlets just completely ignored.

>> Tim Wildmon: Well, they're fans of Anthony Fauci. If it makes him look bad, they're not going to cover. That's what, Eryn Rodgers was talking about. Frank, right there.

>> Chris Woodward: Yeah.

>> Frank Turek: Well, Babylon Bee has the right headline. Here's the headline. Fauci starting to think that maybe keeping a daily perjury diary was a bad idea.

>> Chris Woodward: A diary?

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah.

>> Frank Turek: But here's, here's, here's kind of the macro Sort of 30,000 foot view of this. When Fauci says he's science, what he's forgetting is that science doesn't say anything. Scientists say things. And what he and Francis Collins did is they tried to censor scientists who had a different opinion. Why do I say science doesn't say anything? Scientists do? Because all data needs to be gathered and all data needs to be interpreted. And who interprets the data? Scientists do. Science doesn't say a word. There's no such thing as a personality to science. Science is just a term we use where human beings take initiative to create hypotheses, run experiments and gather the data and come up with a conclusion. And censoring people who disagree with you is not how science is supposed to run. Science is supposed to be open to peer review and correction by other people. And what Collins and Fauci tried to do was shut that whole thing down.

>> Speaker J: Yeah.

>> Tim Wildmon: yeah. I think what most people, most people were angry about was this. most people I know is that, two or three things happened that, One. One is that the, the medical community combined with the scientific community and the news media and the big social media, they wanted to promote one, Response one to the COVID virus, number one is you have to get the vaccine when it came out, and if you didn't, you were killing people. Okay, that was never true. And this vaccine, as Frank pointed out, which wasn't a true vaccine, okay, as even Joe Biden said, it doesn't stop people from getting Covid and it doesn't stop, you from spreading Covid. So I'm going like, what's the point? But if the vaccine would have been rolled out and said, get it, this is available, it might help get it if you want to. Okay, this is America. Then I think everybody had been fine with it. But when they started, that whole conglomerate of groups I just mentioned a few minutes ago, and including the federal government, just started jamming that down your throat, that if you didn't get this, vaccine, which was rushed to market, then you were, you were.

>> Frank Turek: You're an evil person.

>> Tim Wildmon: You're an evil person. You're a bad person. And you know what? Military. You don't get this COVID vaccine shot, we're kicking you out of the military. remember when that happened?

>> Frank Turek: Hey, hey, whatever happened to my body, my choice?

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah, well, whatever happened to that?

>> Frank Turek: Now, in this, in this case, it makes sense because there's only one body. In the case of abortion, there are two bodies. And you don't kill the person inside you for some sort of choice. But you do have a choice about taking a vaccine because that just affects you. And yet people were out there saying, you need to take this.

>> Tim Wildmon: yeah, we all know people who lost their jobs, their livelihood, because they wouldn't take this, experimental.

>> Wesley Wildmon: People miss weddings, funerals. People, jobs were small. Small businesses were, shut down.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah. While big box stores could stay open. Wasn't that weird? But here's the other thing I knew we were. First time I heard Anthony Fauci's name was when he double talked on the mask.

>> Chris Woodward: It was around February, March of that year.

>> Tim Wildmon: February or March of that year, he said, mask don't work against this virus. Remember that? And he was right about that when he said that.

Frank Turek: Congressman flip-flops on Fifth Amendment issue

Then two, three weeks later, he said, mask up, everybody. And you're going like, well, wait a minute, which is it? You're the number one guy, and you flip flopped in two or three weeks here on this. It may not have been that timeline, but it was close to it. So the bottom line is this fella is got no credibility, even though the liberal media still tries to prop him up. you take the Fifth Amendment 111 times. Go ahead.

>> Wesley Wildmon: And this whole conversation stems from the fact that he, he's already been pre pardoned.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah. By Biden.

>> Wesley Wildmon: Yeah.

>> Tim Wildmon: Here's one other thing about this. And I don't care if you work for Republican administration or Democrat administration. If you are a public employee paid and your salary is paid for by the government, particularly in this case of federal government, in my opinion, you should not have the right to plead the fifth Amendment.

>> Wesley Wildmon: That's right.

>> Tim Wildmon: Because all your. If you want to say I don't want to answer that question, say I'm not gonna answer that question. But you are accountable for your actions to the people of the country because your salary is being paid. You can't just hide, in my opinion, behind the fifth Amendment because the fifth Amendment said when you plead the fifth Amendment, you're saying, you know what? I did something criminal. And I don't want to tell you about it.

>> Wesley Wildmon: And the pre pardon thing too. What did he do wrong to have to be pardoned from.

>> Tim Wildmon: All right, we'll be back in a minute. Frank, can you hold on just a minute?

>> Frank Turek: Sure.

>> Tim Wildmon: Okay. Frank Turek with us. We'll be back momentarily.

80% of abortion vulnerable women choose life after seeing baby on ultrasound

>> Ed Vitagliano: Friend. We're living in a defining moment today. A woman facing an unexpected pregnancy can order the abortion pill online, often before anyone has the chance to tell her that she is loved, that she's not alone, or that there is hope. That's why you are needed right now. You are made for this moment. And at PreBorn Network clinics, mothers are welcomed with compassion, practical support and a free ultrasound. And when she sees her baby and hears that tiny heartbeat for the very first time, fear often gives way to hope. In fact, more than 80% of abortion vulnerable women choose life after seeing their baby on an ultrasound at a PreBorn Network clinic. That one moment can save a baby's life and open a mother's heart and to the hope of Jesus Christ. This is our moment to stand. For those who cannot speak for themselves, just $28 provides one life saving ultrasound. $140 helps rescue five babies. Please don't wait. Dial pound 250 and say the key word baby. That's pound 250 baby or give [email protected] afr that's preborn.com afr Together we can save lives for one heartbeat at a time.

>> Frank Turek: Yeah, the power's out. Let's go, let's go. Let's see what the communist, socialist, Marxist, utopia of Cuba is like. Or how about the old Soviet Union? Yeah, what are people thinking? They're not. That's the problem.

>> Wesley Wildmon: Yeah, but that's not, that's not. That's socialists done wrong though, in that.

>> Abraham Hamilton III: Oh yeah.

>> Frank Turek: Oh yeah, yeah. Because. Because if we could only do it right with the right people.

>> Wesley Wildmon: Yeah, that's it.

>> Tim Wildmon: So what's the name of the book? Because I want people to buy it.

>> Frank Turek: It's called the War on Reality. Recovering Truth in a World that Celebrates Lies. In fact, this weekend we're going to talk about it with my co author, Phoenix Hayes. And if people pre order the book, we're going to send them the first chapter or the chapter 10 on Marxism, what we're talking about right now, for free. They just got to go to thewaronreality.com thewaronreality.com and we're going to send it to them. And this book also has some fun stuff in it too, because you can't be, when you're covering these kind of heavy, depressing topics, you know, you got to make it at least some, you got to put some fun in there. So there's some fun in the book as well because our joyous ride to dystopia can be very depressing without a little levity. So we've got some levity in the book.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah. All right, brother. Well, listen, look forward to reading the book. And also I just got in the mail a couple days. So you got it. It's a physical book, but it's also, you mentioned, a virtual or something.

>> Frank Turek: Well, it comes out September, it comes out September 8th. But the thing, we want people to pre order it. Not because we make a lot of money on books, as you know, you don't. But when people pre order the book, non Christian bookstores keep eye on, keep an eye on the pre orders. And if a book is doing well in pre order, what happens is they go, you know what, we probably ought to get some copies of this for our bookstore. So in other words, we're getting the book in front of non Christians, which is what we want to do because the gospel is all through it. So if people pre order the book at Amazon or we ever get books, then that's what hurt me

>> Tim Wildmon: in my singing career. I had no pre orders and when that happened, a lot of the music stores wouldn't order.

>> Frank Turek: They wouldn't cover, no, they wouldn't order my record.

>> Tim Wildmon: And this was back in the 70s and 80s when I was my high profile years for my singing career.

>> Wesley Wildmon: There's a lot of competition back then though too.

>> Tim Wildmon: Well, yeah, Jon James Taylor.

>> Joseph Parker: Ah.

>> Tim Wildmon: I was trying to break in during that era and it was, it was tough. It was tough. All right, Frank, take care, my friend. Thank you.

>> Frank Turek: Thanks for having me on and I'll see you guys this weekend. The war on reality.

>> Tim Wildmon: All right, thank you.

>> Ed Vitagliano: See you.

Dr. Frank Turek: Anthony Fauci took the Fifth Amendment

>> Tim Wildmon: All right, that's Dr. Frank Turek joining us from. Not, North Carolina.

>> Wesley Wildmon: Not Dr. Fauci.

>> Tim Wildmon: Not Dr. Anthony. I'll take the Fifth. Fauci.

>> Wesley Wildmon: That's right.

>> Tim Wildmon: I was saying, you know what, we were talking about this doctor for the weather, Dr. Anthony Fauci, appeared before the Senate committee. And you took the Fifth Amendment 111 times, Krish. You said yes. And I was telling you guys, I don't think you should. I'm not against the constitutional protections that the Fifth Amendment allows, which is there for a purpose, because you, you don't want to, give testimony that may be self incriminating. I understand the purpose and reason for the Fifth Amendment. However, this is not a criminal court hearing. now maybe he's under oath, to give the truth, but when you are in charge, you're the number one guy. And I don't care what federal agency it is, you're the number one guy in charge of a federal agency. And your work should be transparent and you should not be able to hide behind the Fifth Amendment. You should have to answer for what you wrote and what you said and what you did because you're a government employee. So the idea that you can be a, government. That is correct. It was a government agency. True.

>> Fred Jackson: Highest paid civil servant. Yeah.

>> Tim Wildmon: So how could you. Lois Lerner. That name rings a bell. Did this back in the, you know, the Biden administration or Obama. It was Obama.

>> Chris Woodward: I mean, Obama. Yeah, yeah.

>> Tim Wildmon: She was in charge of the irs. You remember this? And they were denying conservative groups, IRS tax exempt status. And it was proven. And when she was asked to defend her agency, she pleaded the Fifth Amendment. And I remember thinking, just answer the question. Okay. Just say, yeah, we denied them because we thought they were a hate group. That's all you got to say. People can agree or disagree with that, but when you hide behind the Fifth Amendment, I say hide behind. When you plead the Fifth Amendment 111 times, as Anthony Fauci did, then that just screams I'm guilty of sin and I don't want to confess it or say it. so that's, that's my thought. Fred, any.

>> Fred Jackson: No, absolutely. And, and for questions like I say it really looked ridiculous when Josh Hawley said colors the Carpet. I plead the fifth. You know, colors. You tie. I plead the fifth. He lost. There were some people who. And there are some people who still believe he's a hero. M. Like Dannah Bash at cnn.

>> Chris Woodward: Yeah, yeah, we have that audio if you want to play Dannah and RFK Jr.

>> Tim Wildmon: I heard it yesterday. We played it yesterday. Yeah, I think so. What was it about rfk? I mean, was it about Anthony Fauci?

>> Chris Woodward: Yes, that Covid in general and how the media was.

>> Tim Wildmon: Okay, well, yeah, sure, we'll hear.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. criticizes CNN over COVID coverage

Now, what are we about to hear?

>> Chris Woodward: All right, so this is, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. Who's a fan of CNN and its coverage of things like Covid. The jab.

>> Tim Wildmon: He made an appearance on cnn.

>> Chris Woodward: Fauci. Yes.

>> Tim Wildmon: And with Dannah Bash.

>> Chris Woodward: He did.

>> Tim Wildmon: And she asked him about, Anthony Fauci or about Cove I got into

>> Chris Woodward: it over Fauci and COVID policy and coverage from CNN and other news outlets.

>> Tim Wildmon: So this is Dannah versus Robert.

>> Chris Woodward: Correct.

>> Tim Wildmon: Okay, let's hear it. I really want to move on, but

>> Abraham Hamilton III: you are saying you are. Yes. You were part of the problem.

>> Tim Wildmon: No, I wasn't part of the problem.

>> Abraham Hamilton III: It was absolute press malpractice.

>> Frank Turek: I'm not debating this view.

>> Abraham Hamilton III: Of course you are. No, because I'm not sure how to do is repeat things that people told you and say, trust the experts. That's what you did during Cove Now, we know that Andy Fauci, who was the expert, was lying about everything. About masks, about social distancing, about natural immunity, about the transmission from the vaccine, about the source of Cove He was lying, and you were punishing people for not trusting the experts. And now you're rolling out the experts again. Yes. To talk about something that you have no personal knowledge of. Wow.

>> Chris Woodward: That was a, We had to edit that.

>> Tim Wildmon: That's called a takedown.

>> Fred Jackson: Yeah. What he was saying, what RFK Jr. Was saying there. UCNN.

>> Tim Wildmon: Right. in the mainstream media, you're supposed to be journalists. Yeah.

>> Fred Jackson: You're supposed to question.

>> Wesley Wildmon: Right.

>> Fred Jackson: When a, government official makes a declaration. They didn't. They were lap dogs for the Biden administration. Who was it? correct me if I'm wrong, Krish. Was it Jake T. Jake Tapper went and had dinner sometimes with Anthony Fauci.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah.

>> Fred Jackson: All right. They were buddies.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah.

>> Fred Jackson: Yeah. Let's. Hey, let's go have dinner together and. And we'll talk about what the story's going to look like.

>> Chris Woodward: Jake Tapper was the same guy that excused Biden's mental, problems.

>> Fred Jackson: Yeah.

>> Chris Woodward: And then went on to write a book about how Biden had covered it up and you know, misled the media. So people were joking that tapper after the fact.

>> Tim Wildmon: There's a reason people don't trust the liberal media. There's a reason. And Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Right there just oh wow. Laid that episode out very well on the Cove and wow. All right. You're listening to Today's Issues on the American Family Radio Network. That's the name of the show, Today's Issues. Tim, Wesley, Fred and Krish. Krish, bring forth the next story.

Michigan has a Democratic Senate primary between a communist and a socialist liberal

>> Chris Woodward: Well, it was interesting that we had Frank on to get into things like communism and socialism because today in Michigan there is a Democratic Senate primary between a communist and a big government socialist liberal. and the winner of this Democratic primary is going to face Republican Mike Rogers, for the U.S. senate. President Trump weighed in on this situation yesterday in about an hour and a half long press conference from the Oval Office, here's Donald Trump. Clip 3 I think he's going to

>> Tim Wildmon: be a great senator. But you have a communist versus a socialist. That's the way I look at it. You have a communist versus a socialist. It looks like the communist is leading. We're talking about for the Democrat primary. M But for the Republican, you have a very good man and he should be able to, he should be able to win.

>> Chris Woodward: I gotta tell you, I think it may be too soon to just predict somebody is gonna win something based on the bizarre fanaticism that some people have for Democratic socialists. Because Bernie Sanders, who's not a Democrat, but for some reason they let him decide how the party's gonna run things. Bernie Sanders is out there saying that this El Said fellow, Abdul El Said the socialist communist, ah, running for Senate there, that he's able to appeal to both sides and he's going to you know, speak to all young people about affordability and things like that.

>> Tim Wildmon: Both sides being the communists and the socialist.

>> Chris Woodward: Oh well, according to Bernie Sanders, El sayed is going to be able to reach Republicans.

>> Tim Wildmon: Well Bernie's, Bernie's kind of losing touch with reality. But anyway, here's the thing. there is a U.S. senate race, there are many of them across the country coming up in November. Michigan. I don't remember the last time Michigan had a Republican senator. Can you look that up?

>> Chris Woodward: Well, I got you.

>> Tim Wildmon: because this is this is important. the Democrats are about to, they're going to the polls to as to possibly elect for their nominee a one of these, the squad type members, the far lefty, these, Madani

>> Fred Jackson: types, DSA Democrats, Socialists of America.

>> Tim Wildmon: And if they do that tomorrow, there's, a really good chance that the Republican. What's the gentleman's name?

>> Fred Jackson: Mike Rogers.

>> Tim Wildmon: Mike Rogers will win. That's what Trump was talking about right there. Go ahead.

>> Chris Woodward: Well, for a Republican to win, in Michigan's.

>> Tim Wildmon: Michigan's purple. Purple to blue statewide.

>> Chris Woodward: Right. For a Republican to win a seat, like a Senate seat in, a purple state like Michigan, he or she is going to need everybody and their brother to vote outside of the

>> Tim Wildmon: big cities, and they're going to need a bad candidate for the Democrats. And that's what may happen.

>> Chris Woodward: Right.

>> Tim Wildmon: Did you find out the answer to my question?

>> Chris Woodward: Spencer Abraham, was the last Republican U.S. senator from Michigan. He served a single term from 95 to 2001.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah, it's been a minute since then they've had Democrats. So you, you could almost call Michigan a blue state, honestly. Yeah, but I only call it purple because, the, the west side of the state has normal people.

>> Chris Woodward: It's similar to Minnesota. If you, on an election night, if you were to zoom in on the state of Minnesota, it's red. Outside of the big Detroit.

>> Tim Wildmon: Grand Rap. Detroit, Anne Arbor. Anne Arbor. But if you get over to the western part of Michigan, I, said that's where, ah, a lot of

>> Wesley Wildmon: conservatives, that's where we go for our AFA events.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah, Grand Rapids area. But it'll be interesting to see, if the Republicans can pull off a upset. I would call it an upset in the sense that Democrats have been the senators representing Michigan for what, two decades almost? Yeah, something like that now. So we'll see what happens there.

>> Chris Woodward: Yeah. Democrats are so concerned about this election that the outgoing Democratic senator, who said he was going to stay out of it, endorsed Haley Stevens a few weeks ago when it looked like this El said Guy, the Democratic Socialist, was going to beat her. And he's still leading, comfortably in several polls.

>> Tim Wildmon: You're listening to today's Issues on the American Family Radio Network. Next story. Krish?

Chris: I think it's discriminatory to require ID for food purchases

>> Chris Woodward: All right, let's, let's do this. there are a lot of people in NewSong York City and other parts of the country that think it's wrong to require ID to vote. but somebody.

>> Tim Wildmon: Oh, it's racist.

>> Chris Woodward: Oh, sure it is.

>> Tim Wildmon: Sure is absolutely racist to the core to ask for a driver's license to vote.

>> Fred Jackson: Jim Crow.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah, it's Jim Crow. It's, it's awful.

>> Chris Woodward: Yeah.

>> Tim Wildmon: You should allow anybody to vote who wants to vote. It doesn't matter that they should not have to have any id. That's otherwise they should be able to

>> Wesley Wildmon: represent their dead family members and vote twice.

>> Tim Wildmon: Right. So that's the view of the, that's the view of many Democrats, including in NewSong York City.

>> Chris Woodward: Yes.

>> Tim Wildmon: And well, what, Krish?

>> Chris Woodward: Yeah. Well, if you want to buy apples from the government owned grocery store in the Big Apple now, people like Mayor Zoran Mamdani want you to show an id.

>> Tim Wildmon: No.

>> Chris Woodward: To be able to buy groceries from the grocery store.

>> Tim Wildmon: Wait a minute, I thought he's against having to show an id.

>> Chris Woodward: Well that's different, Tim.

>> Tim Wildmon: But if you go to go to his government run grocery store. By the way, have those things opened yet?

>> Chris Woodward: Oh yeah, they're. He's, he's opening them. Yeah.

>> Tim Wildmon: This is open yet?

>> Chris Woodward: They're in the process of opening.

>> Fred Jackson: Yes, they're working on.

>> Wesley Wildmon: Some of them are.

>> Tim Wildmon: Okay. The reason I distinguish between working on it and actually open is when they actually open, they're not going to work. Okay.

>> Wesley Wildmon: That's right.

>> Tim Wildmon: They're gonna probably close them within two to weeks or a month because free stuff for everybody doesn't work. But the irony here, we're pointing out is these Democrats in NewSong York and other places who are against, voters having to have an ID to prove they are who they say they are when it comes to their, their government run grocery store in NewSong York City. they don't. They're saying you're going to need an id.

>> Wesley Wildmon: Here's my, here's. I'm just trying to explain this. I guess he would say because if we don't do that way illegal people are gonna.

>> Tim Wildmon: He doesn't believe in illegal people.

>> Wesley Wildmon: I know he does.

>> Tim Wildmon: Okay.

>> Wesley Wildmon: But if the illegal people use the food.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah.

>> Wesley Wildmon: And he, then that's gonna take away from his plan.

>> Wesley Wildmon: To feed American citizens for.

>> Tim Wildmon: I just think it's, I think it's discriminatory.

>> Wesley Wildmon: I'm trying to figure out why.

>> Tim Wildmon: No, I just think it's absolutely discriminatory to require a ID for food. And also I think that what you need to do is just have the store and open the doors for all people. I don't even think you need any management in there.

>> Wesley Wildmon: No.

>> Tim Wildmon: You just need to throw the food in there.

>> Wesley Wildmon: I wouldn't even have a check in checked out.

>> Tim Wildmon: No. And just let people go for it. And you know, I'm sure that these people will be in line and be organized and they get just what they need. Yes. And they will be polite to one another if you just open the doors and say, y' all come and get your Campbell's soup and your. You know what I'm saying?

>> Wesley Wildmon: Don't you think that's going to be a Frosted Flakes?

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah, go ahead.

Zoran Mandami and others were at announcement about discounted grocery stores

>> Chris Woodward: All right, so this is some audio from the mayor and others that were at this announcement.

>> Tim Wildmon: Zorron. Is this Zoron?

>> Chris Woodward: It's Zoran and others. Zuron and his minions.

>> Tim Wildmon: What are they answering here?

>> Chris Woodward: Well, they're, they're, they're asked a question about the grocery stores. And you'll hear Zoran and his, official that he tosses to talking about how they're going to show an ID or require something like a library card.

>> Tim Wildmon: Okay, flip 12.

>> Speaker H: How are you going to keep people from taking advantage of that, you know, that deal, basically? And is there going to be a limit on the number of items that someone can take that are discounted at that level from that essential basket?

>> Joseph Parker: So RFP makes very clear that this is a program for NewSong Yorkers to be able to put food on the table, not a program for people to be able to make a quick buck through reselling. I'm going to pass it over to our EDC head, jpac, to add some additional details.

>> Speaker J: Yes, if you look at our RFP for the operator, we are looking to make sure that we target NewSong Yorkers, whether it be at sort of a library card esque. And also we manage who's buying, and that is focused on everyday NewSong Yorkers.

>> Chris Woodward: So they're going to require something like a library card esque plan.

>> Tim Wildmon: a second, man, I don't know if it's my hearing or I can't understand NewSong Yorkers. but what did she say?

>> Chris Woodward: We're going to require a library card esque type thing to be able to buy groceries from the store. So they have to show ID just like you would hand the library, your library.

>> Tim Wildmon: So you got to have a. You got to. They don't know what they're doing. They don't know what they're doing. That was not a. Let's listen to this answer again. First of all, Zoran Mamdani m. The

>> Chris Woodward: mayor,

>> Tim Wildmon: he's getting good at being mayor now because he said, I'm going to pass it over. Did you hear that?

>> Chris Woodward: That's what Bert does to Alex.

>> Tim Wildmon: What he's saying. Yes, that's right. He's saying, I got a question I can't answer. So I'm going to pass it over. And so, let's hear this. Is this is he does it well, right here. Listen to him. And then this young lady. Assume it's a young lady. I can hardly follow her sentences, but I'm going to try to listen carefully here. Go, go ahead.

>> Speaker H: How are you going to keep people from taking advantage of that, you know, that deal, basically? And is there going to be a limit on the number of items that someone can take that are discounted at that level from that essential basket?

>> Joseph Parker: So RFP makes very clear that this is a program for NewSong Yorkers to be able to put food on the table, not a program for people to be able to make a quick buck through reselling. I'm going to pass it over to our EDC head, JPAC to add some additional details.

>> Speaker J: Yes. If you look at our RFP for the operator, we are looking to make sure that we target NewSong Yorkers, whether it be at sort of a library card esque. And also we manage who's buying and that is focused on everyday NewSong Yorkers.

>> Tim Wildmon: what you're saying is we don't know. She said we don't know how we're going to stop this. We're going to try to issue him a library s card. That what she said. Well, okay, my point is here. If we're still thinking through how, this thing's going to work on a, on a real life, practical level, then it ain't going to work. Okay.

>> Tim Wildmon: because otherwise he needs to say we're going to push this back a year till we can figure out how to keep people from getting free stuff who don't need it. That's what they're gonna. That's what, that's what they need to do. Because when, and also, where does he get the idea of resale?

>> Chris Woodward: Oh, I can explain that.

>> Tim Wildmon: Okay, before I get to that question, because I don't think the idea is resale in so much as you're gonna have people going in there getting free stuff and free food. And who, who, who doesn't want free food? I mean, most everybody's going to go in there in NewSong York. Not most everybody, but half the population.

>> Wesley Wildmon: Yeah.

>> Tim Wildmon: Is going to want to get in there. And, So they're not going in there to get Frosted Flakes to go down the street and resell them.

>> Chris Woodward: Yeah.

>> Tim Wildmon: They're going in there to get free stuff because it helps their pocketbook. Go ahead.

>> Chris Woodward: So the thing that they're talking about resale, the concern from some people, is that folks outside of NewSong York City might come to NewSong York City to get free or discounted grocery items

>> Tim Wildmon: now with these gas prices and then

>> Chris Woodward: go out on the street with a card table and sell the stuff they got for nothing or next to nothing. That's the resale. That's the research.

>> Tim Wildmon: Also, if you own a grocery store or in NewSong York, what's called a bodega, which is a convenience store, basically, most of us know, they're on all the city blocks here in NewSong York, and you're trying to sell groceries, and then Mamdani, the mayor opens up a free store, y' all come get it. And you're trying to compete with free, free stuff. you're. That's gonna hurt your business, seems to me.

>> Chris Woodward: And those are immigrant run bodegas, the vast majority of bodegas.

>> Tim Wildmon: Don't we already have government programs for food for people who are poor and needy? Don't we snap and all that? Don't we already have that?

>> Fred Jackson: Yeah, but here's the thing. With regards to your comments about bodega owners, one of, Donnie's people was asked about this a week or so ago. Well, and the response was this. Well, some people will suffer from our decision, but it's more important.

>> Tim Wildmon: That's the answer.

>> Fred Jackson: That was the answer. Some people will suffer. so too bad for you, bodega owner, but we think this grocery store over here run by us is more important.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah, I could see a potential class action lawsuit being brought by, let's say, the bodega.

>> Fred Jackson: It already is.

>> Tim Wildmon: Okay.

>> Fred Jackson: It start. Well, actually, in this case, it's the building owners that have launched a lawsuit because he came up with this edict, what, a couple of weeks ago. they're going to dox people who own two homes in NewSong York.

Some people say native New Yorkers did not vote for Cuomo, they voted

They're not allowed to do that. So we're going to publish publicly who you are and your address.

>> Tim Wildmon: The mayor's office is going to do that.

>> Fred Jackson: Yes.

>> Chris Woodward: He boasted about it on X. Yep. Well, he told, he told property, owners to check their mailbox.

>> Tim Wildmon: well, these, these NewSong Yorkers voted for this guy.

>> Chris Woodward: They did.

>> Tim Wildmon: Now, some people say, and I saw the surveys where, native NewSong Yorkers did not vote for him, they voted for Cuomo.

>> Chris Woodward: Very true.

>> Tim Wildmon: Another winner. but they're, What's it, what's the fellow's name?

>> Chris Woodward: Cuomo wasn't it was Rick Adams was the other one.

>> Tim Wildmon: No, but what's, Cuomo's first name? Because there's two of them. Krish's brother Andrew.

>> Frank Turek: Andrew.

>> Chris Woodward: Andrew.

>> Tim Wildmon: The former governor. Right?

>> Chris Woodward: Mario was their dad.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah. Super Mario was their uncle. Did you know?

>> Chris Woodward: This is me, Mario.
