>> Steve Jordahl: Good morning, everybody. Anything to talk about today?

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah, we're just kind of shooting the breeze over here, Steve.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Talking football, you know, not much to talk about.

>> Tim Wildmon: obviously, the impacts, of the winter storm. They named that winter storm. What was it?

>> Steve Jordahl: Name? Fawn.

>> Tim Wildmon: What?

>> Ed Vitagliano: Fawn.

>> Steve Jordahl: Fawn.

>> Tim Wildmon: What a. What a wimpy name.

>> Steve Jordahl: Pretty sure that was it, right?

>> Ed Vitagliano: That was a storm.

>> Steve Jordahl: Fern. Fern. F, E, R, N. Sorry.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Thank you. That's also a weird name.

>> Steve Jordahl: It is pretty weird.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Fern. But at least that's a person's name. I've never seen anyone. They don't. Don't they always name these storms? a person's name?

>> Steve Jordahl: Yes. And it used to be only women, but now.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Yes.

>> Tim Wildmon: I don't ever remember winter storms being named.

>> Steve Jordahl: I don't either.

>> Tim Wildmon: Hurricanes always hear their name.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Yeah.

>> Tim Wildmon: The winter storms, I never remember them getting. With this winter storm, Fern, it is.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Easier to refer to something, you know, you know, you. Or Hurricane Ida or, you know, whatever, and people's, ideas of what you're talking about rather than the hurricane of, you know.

>> Steve Jordahl: Well, you have to have a name for it because apparently, according to, the Department of Homeland Security, you can't call it. You can't use the word ice when you're talking about it.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Can't say ice.

>> Tim Wildmon: Storm.

>> Steve Jordahl: No, you can't say ice. This is a report that fema, the officials are saying that you have to watch out for words like ice. sources say profitable.

>> Tim Wildmon: Serious. You're not serious. Serious.

>> Steve Jordahl: I am. CNN's reporting that, sources in the Department of Homeland Security say that FEMA has been forbidden from using the word ice in any warning regarding the massive winter storm that's sweeping our nation. This is. I'm reading from cnn. Officials say they worry that certain phrasing like watch out for ice could be misinterpreted.

>> Tim Wildmon: This sounds like the Biden administration.

>> Steve Jordahl: If FEMA says keep off the roads, if you see ice, it could easily, you know, be used politically.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Now. It's a trigger word.

>> Steve Jordahl: It's a trigger word. Ice.

>> Tim Wildmon: Famous. I didn't know FEMA was still around. Yeah, still around.

>> Ed Vitagliano: I mean, who. Who's. Who thinks that Listen, what I hear on the news is I have watch out for black ice on the roads. I'm not thinking race, so who in the world is thinking, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, when someone's talking about a winter storm producing ice on the roads?

>> Steve Jordahl: Apparent. The Department of Homeland Security.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Wow.

>> Tim Wildmon: Like. Like, people don't have the. The, So we aren't able to distinguish.

>> Steve Jordahl: Yeah, so we're calling it Fern.

>> Tim Wildmon: You know what?

>> Ed Vitagliano: Oh, man, give me a break.

>> Tim Wildmon: Don't, break the ice.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Of that Kit Kat bar.

Hundreds of thousands of people still don't have power after winter storm

>> Tim Wildmon: All right, so anyway, the, the two major stories, the effects of the, winter storm. hundreds of thousands of people still don't have power. Some don't have water either.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Right.

>> Tim Wildmon: that, especially in.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Including some of our. Our employees. Yeah, they don't. Which is tough when you're, told to, run the water drip the water and. And pencil stream this and all that.

>> Steve Jordahl: I mean, if they come in tomorrow and they wouldn't have had water, they wouldn't have taken showers. Should I, like, be avoiding.

>> Ed Vitagliano: I'm not asking if you feel like you should ask. Just don't trigger anybody to be obvious.

>> Tim Wildmon: No. Yeah. All right, what's your first story, Steve?

Tim Ferriss: There is a new liberal podcaster attacking white evangelicals

>> Steve Jordahl: All right, there is a new podcaster on the left. Her name is Jennifer Welch.

>> Tim Wildmon: Jennifer.

>> Steve Jordahl: Jennifer.

>> Tim Wildmon: I know what she was doing now.

>> Ed Vitagliano: She's. She's. She's. She's gaining in popularity, right?

>> Steve Jordahl: Well, it's. It's kind of astroturfed. So she's gaining in popularity because, the liberals say they need someone like Joe Rogan. Now, keep in mind, Joe Rogan definitely is not a conservative, although he interviewed Donald Trump and didn't, like, cuss him out on the air. So, of course, that means everybody on the left makes him a conservative. So the liberals think that they need their own version of this. So they have anointed this gal called Jennifer Welch as their liberal podcaster, hoping that they can kind of make inroads into the medium of podcasting. And, she has been talking. She is not a fan of evangelicals, I gotta say. And I will give you example. Number one. Listen, I got 20.

>> Speaker D: This is a cancer. White evangelical Christianity is a cancer. These are the worst of our country. These are the worst people in our country because they use their religion in two ways. As a weapon and as a shield. They weaponize it whenever they want to and say, we're on the moral high ground. You're a lesbian. You deserve to die. You're a lesbian. The cops shouldn't have, revived you oh, your parents are Mexicans and they brought you over here. Yeah. You should go to jail and eat worm food. And then when you call them out on it, they're after the Christians. How dare they? How dare they? we're so oppressed. White Christians are so oppressed in this country, and they want it both ways. Because in the religion that duplicity is taught, you can be morally duplicitous. You, you, you thrive in cognitive dissonance. And so this is just a massive, massive problem. And it should come as no surprise to anyone that of this cult that I'm talking about, white evangelicals, I think over 80% went and voted triple Trump.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Yeah.

>> Steve Jordahl: First of all, she doesn't like you very much, Ed.

>> Ed Vitagliano: First of all, she's a blatherskite. I mentioned that last week as someone who speaks utter nonsense that folks, let me just say that's not true. I have, I have in the past use the word and idiot. And some of you have called.

>> Tim Wildmon: That was very hurtful. And we talked about it. Yeah.

>> Ed Vitagliano: And, and, and you're right. I, I try, I am going to try not to throw. Not to call human beings idiots or morons on the air. On the air. I'm, I'm going to try not to do that. So blather skite is my way of softening that. And that's what, what's her name?

>> Steve Jordahl: Jennifer Welsh.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Okay. Jennifer Welsh. She, she is a blather skite and a liar. Okay. Because she's lying about evangelical Christians and.

>> Wesley Wildmon: It'S not what they're taught. She says that's what they're taught.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Yes. listen, there, there was about a half dozen things she said that were outright lies. And, but let me just tell you this. This is what the enemies of Christianity have always done. They did this in the. Under the Roman Empire. They said they were doing when Christians met, said they were engaging in cannibalism and all this kind of stuff. but that. The reason Steve asked me about playing this, I said, yeah, let's do it. Because to me, that, that is what the, at least the radical left believes about Christians. So, folks, you better be able to defend your faith in a Christian way and be able to answer this and talk about the gospel, because there are people who want to characterize your faith for you.

>> Tim Wildmon: Listen, I've been an evangelical white Christian. Still white. Yeah. I was just checking. You never know. Well, I never know what kind of environmental, things are out there changing their skin color.

>> Ed Vitagliano: That's right.

>> Tim Wildmon: So I'm still Still, whatever that color that is right there. What is that?

>> Ed Vitagliano: Microplastics. You never know how that can change.

>> Tim Wildmon: So I've been a white. My name is Tim.

>> Wesley Wildmon: That's it. That's it.

>> Tim Wildmon: I am m. A white evangelical Christian.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Hello, Tim.

>> Wesley Wildmon: Would you like to apologize for that?

>> Tim Wildmon: Yes, I would like to apologize.

She calls Christians evangelical Christians. Right there is, is absolutely not true of evangelical white Christians

>> Wesley Wildmon: what I'm saying is your skin color, your religion.

>> Tim Wildmon: I don't know, I don't know what she's talking about. What I'm saying is, I've listened to. Yes, has. Is evangelical opposed to homosexuality?

>> Wesley Wildmon: Well, sure.

>> Tim Wildmon: yes, because the Bible is opposed to sexual immorality.

>> Ed Vitagliano: We don't want them to die.

>> Tim Wildmon: Nobody. No, we want everybody to repent and turn to God.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Yeah.

>> Tim Wildmon: And we're all sinners. right. So nobody. So what, she's, she's, she's using a, ah, false, narrative. Is that what she has, a whole.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Parade of straw men? Yes.

>> Tim Wildmon: If you want to say I disagree with the white evangelicals because they shouldn't be white.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Yeah. Or I, or I don't believe Christianity.

>> Steve Jordahl: She is white.

>> Tim Wildmon: She is disappointing.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Yeah, okay.

>> Tim Wildmon: that's really disappointing. She needs to change her skin color. I don't know. I don't know what white has to do with anything. There are a lot of black evangelicals. There are a lot of, A lot of Hispanic evangelicals. So why, why is she just panicking?

>> Ed Vitagliano: I'll tell you what. The, the black evangelicals and Hispanic, you know, brown evangelicals, they believe the Bible too.

>> Tim Wildmon: I know. So I don't know why she's singling out white evangelicals.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Well, because she represents the radical left and its view of who the problem is. She calls Christians evangelical Christians. Cancer.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah, cancer.

>> Ed Vitagliano: That's what they. A lot of these folks believe that everything she accused.

>> Tim Wildmon: Right there is, is absolutely not true of the vast, vast majority of evangelical white Christians.

>> Ed Vitagliano: I don't want anyone eating worm food. What does that even mean?

>> Tim Wildmon: She's just throwing stuff out there.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Yeah.

>> Wesley Wildmon: And so anyway, now that, that used to. I would say, like I've mentioned this when we had Frank on, 10 years ago in college. 15 years ago in college. That would be our. My generation. Fifteen years ago in college would get very defensive and try to start defending that now.

>> Tim Wildmon: Defending what?

>> Wesley Wildmon: Defending that. We'd say in things. Well, we would go further than we're doing here and be like, well, that's not fair. I don't believe that. Blah, blah, blah. But, you know, that type of stuff doesn't work anymore. everybody knows Even if you're not a Christian, most people know that what she's saying is simply not true. and because we have history.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah, it's a false caricature, but it works with her far left buddies. Go ahead. Next story.

Tim Walls says Minnesota children are hiding in hopes ICE doesn't deport them

>> Steve Jordahl: All right. I wanted to go back, if we can, to, the Minnesota thing. Just a second, because I want to kind, of demonstrate to you how far the left will go to try to gain, sympathy for their cause. So, Tim Walls, we have chronicled, a whole lot of stuff that he has said about ICE and about what's going on there. The governor of Minnesota, and he has a warning. he says that the children of Minnesota are suffering. And, well, he has a comparison to make. Cut 14.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Allow our children to go back to school. We have got children in Minnesota hiding in their houses, afraid to go outside. Many of us grew up reading that story of Anne Franklin. Somebody's going to write that children's story about Minnesota. And there's one person who can end this now.

>> Steve Jordahl: The Holocaust Museum was pretty, offended at that comparison, I will tell you.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Well, Governor Tim Walls is a blather sky.

>> Steve Jordahl: We're just bringing them all out for you. So he.

>> Ed Vitagliano: He's talking about ICE arresting and then deporting people who have children. Is that what he's saying?

>> Steve Jordahl: Yeah, well, the children.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Why. Why is he saying children are hiding?

>> Tim Wildmon: He's saying the. The children who are here illegally in our country, the children of people here who are here illegally are hiding in Minnesota in hopes that ICE doesn't catch, them and deport them. That's what's what. That's. That's what. That's what he's saying.

>> Ed Vitagliano: That may. That may be true. Okay. About some of the children of people who are here illegally. That is not a solution to the problem.

>> Tim Wildmon: He's saying, let him go back to school. Yeah. Quit harassing them. That's what he's saying.

>> Wesley Wildmon: Yeah.

>> Tim Wildmon: But, you know, go ahead.

>> Steve Jordahl: Comparing him to Anne Frank, which.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah, Anne Frank, she, she helped people escape the Nazis who were going to kill them.

>> Steve Jordahl: And she wasn't. She. She was a citizen of the country in which she resided, not a. An immigrant. There's a lot of reasons that does not work.

>> Ed Vitagliano: She was hiding from Nazis who wanted to kill her because she was a Jew.

>> Tim Wildmon: Right. That's what they're saying about ice.

We Left in place an acting president. Her name is Delsey Rodriguez

>> Steve Jordahl: All right. a, while back, we remember when we sent our, SEAL team in to take, out, the.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Ruler of, Venezuela.

>> Steve Jordahl: Venezuela. Maduro.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Yeah.

>> Steve Jordahl: Well, we Left in place an acting president. Her name is Delsey Rodriguez. And Delsey Rodriguez is said to be kind of, an ideological twin to Maduro. In other words, we left the same thing that we took out in charge. And the thought was we have so much, influence over that country now because we have their oil, and we can always take her out the same way that they took out Maduro. We can send another strike team in that she's going to toe the line. But she is saying that she has had enough of us interference in the country's politics. My question to you, the panel is, if we went to this trouble to take out Maduro, what good is it if we left in Maduro light? Have we. Is this, Donald Trump maybe not following through with the threat?

>> Wesley Wildmon: well, you don't want ma.

>> Ed Vitagliano: No, go ahead.

>> Wesley Wildmon: I think the biggest thing here is that Trump still has the card that says I removed Maduro. So if you want to be next, you better do what I say, otherwise you're next. Or, and, or. I do think, though, that the bigger picture here was the oil. So as long as they work with us on the oil, I don't think he cares that much if there's a light version of Maduro that makes sense.

>> Steve Jordahl: You think he's allowing her, she can say whatever she wants as long as she toes the line.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Well, and she's probably, I don't know, there may be back channel communications between Venezuela and the US and she may be saying, in order to shore up my position, I have to work with. I gotta say things that I believe. you know, I'm not gonna be your puppet. But we will work behind the scenes to Wesley's point. And I think as long as that gets, I would like to see it continue that oil does not go from Venezuela to places like Cuba, Iran or Russia or, something like that. and so I'm pretty flexible at this point about how the Trump administration handles Venezuela. we'll see.

President Trump tweeted that he is the acting president of Venezuela

>> Tim Wildmon: Well, President Trump said he is the acting president of Venezuela.

>> Ed Vitagliano: He did.

>> Wesley Wildmon: Go ahead.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Yep. Yeah.

>> Tim Wildmon: Is that true or not?

>> Ed Vitagliano: No, that is. He did say that.

>> Tim Wildmon: No. Is it true, though, is he.

>> Ed Vitagliano: That he is that. No, I think, I think what he's saying is we always have to say that about Trump.

>> Tim Wildmon: Say that about Trump.

>> Wesley Wildmon: What he's trying to say.

>> Tim Wildmon: What he's trying to say is that.

>> Ed Vitagliano: I'm going to do what I think is right in this hemisphere. And you may be, the, the president, the actual acting president of Venezuela, but I'm in charge.

>> Wesley Wildmon: Yeah.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Trump. I think that's what Trump is saying. the only reason I say I think that's what he's saying is because we have nothing other than the, the, the tweet or the truth. Social. I don't know what you call those. They're not tweets.

>> Tim Wildmon: Social.

>> Ed Vitagliano: The Post where he said, I'm the acting president of Venezuela.

>> Wesley Wildmon: Yes.

>> Ed Vitagliano: How come you're always tossing those questions to me?

>> Steve Jordahl: Like, Like.

>> Ed Vitagliano: I don't know.

>> Tim Wildmon: I just, I don't know. your question, Steve, was what are we going to do about a new, I don't think we're going to do anything.

>> Steve Jordahl: Probably my question is we, labeled the capture of Maduro as this huge victory, and we've now taken Venezuela off of the board. As far as a Marxist country, we've liberated their people. it's a toppling of the government. We're going to restore, economic, stability in the country. If, if she is his clone. Well, is in charge. What have we done?

>> Tim Wildmon: I think too early to tell.

>> Steve Jordahl: Yeah.

>> Tim Wildmon: I think, next story, Steve. Probably fair try to trap us now, Steve. Yeah.

>> Steve Jordahl: I'm going to.

>> Tim Wildmon: We're ready for you. Too early to tell, Steve. I'll do like my parents said to me and what we said to our children. We'll see.

>> Wesley Wildmon: We'll see.

>> Tim Wildmon: Covers a host of answers.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Steve, I think what Tim is trying to say here.

>> Tim Wildmon: Oh, yeah, like, I'm playing 3D chess, right.

>> Wesley Wildmon: And I'm trying to make a deal. Art of the deal.

>> Ed Vitagliano: I'm just trying to get to lunch. That's all I'm trying to do.

>> Tim Wildmon: You just want your power back on.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Power back on.

>> Steve Jordahl: I'd like to have something for the next seven minutes. That's what I want.

Russian newspaper says missile shield put up by Trump could trigger nuclear instability

All right. According to, the Russian newspaper Toss.

>> Tim Wildmon: What now?

>> Steve Jordahl: According to the Russian newspaper Toss. T A S S. That's a Russian newspaper. Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council, Dmiti Medra Medvedev is saying that the Golden Dome project that Donald Trump has the United States on, which is the missile shield that the United States put up, he's calling that provocative.

>> Steve Jordahl: And that it could trigger nuclear instability. My question to the panel, and I have questions.

>> Tim Wildmon: We'll see is.

>> Steve Jordahl: What does it say when we're. It's a defensive shield. It cannot launch anything. It just defends. Why would it be provocative? To be able to protect ourselves.

>> Wesley Wildmon: And it was provocative to who now?

>> Steve Jordahl: To the Russians.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Well, Medvedev is he. He's. He was president of Russia, in between Putin. Okay, so Putin did allow someone else to be elected temporarily. but here's, here's the way that argument goes. And this goes all the way back to the 60s and the 70s, when the United States was considering anti ballistic missile ABM, technology. and we wound up with an ABM treaty with the Soviet Union, because what the Soviet Union said was if you develop an anti ballistic missile shield that shoots down nuclear weapons, that makes it more likely that you will launch nuclear weapons first because you're not going to suffer, as greatly in a counter strike because of your ABM technology, and therefore we're going to have to develop even m more and better nuclear missiles, which destabilizes. Destabilizes the nuclear, weapons situation. In fact, I'm pretty sure that the ABM technology, anti ballistic missile technology was the reason for the development of MIRVAN technology, which is multiple independently targeted reentry vehicles. So these are ICBMs.

>> Steve Jordahl: He had a talk show at one point, didn't he?

>> Ed Vitagliano: Yes. Merv.

>> Steve Jordahl: Merv.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Yeah, Merv Griffin. These are missiles that you fire, and on their descent, ICBMs, they, you have multiple missiles, warheads released by that missile.

>> Tim Wildmon: Kind of like my golf game.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Kind of like your golf game.

>> Tim Wildmon: Just multiple bad shots released in consecutive fact.

>> Ed Vitagliano: You know, I try to have a serious discussion. You realize I haven't talked about MERV technology since I was at Boston College in a, in a political science class. Give me the, Give me this moment, okay? Give me this moment. When am I going to talk about this again?

>> Tim Wildmon: I apologize.

>> Wesley Wildmon: I interrupted.

>> Ed Vitagliano: That's an old argument that if we have a golden dome, we might strike Russia with nuclear weapons first. So they're gonna have to do something to beat our golden dome.

>> Steve Jordahl: Are you in favor of the golden dome?

>> Ed Vitagliano: I'm in favor of the golden dome.

>> Steve Jordahl: All right.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Absolutely. I think President Trump is a genius for wanting to install, it.

>> Steve Jordahl: All right?

>> Wesley Wildmon: And we, And I don't care if it's provocative.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Yeah, we don't care if it's provocative.

>> Tim Wildmon: We don't care.

>> Steve Jordahl: As long as we're doing the balance.

>> Tim Wildmon: Why do you think we care if it was provocative or not? We don't care.

>> Ed Vitagliano: If I was Trump, I'd say. Well, I'll tell you what, let this be a discussion then. Vladimir, of Let's maybe cut back on some of our nuclear missiles.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah. Now, you like them apples?

>> Steve Jordahl: I do like them apples.
