Hannah Faulkner
Guy is a girl. Like, he. I don't know what he had done that to make him look like, literally like a female. But it's sad. It is. It's really sad that you can't. It's hard to tell is this a woman or a dude? Like, you don't know. And he said, so do you condone what he's doing? And I'm like, I don't care if you're a Republican, if you're a Democrat, if you're putting on woman face, I'm not gonna condone your life sad.
Sean Kelly
Okay, guys, we got Hannah back on the show. Today we are at Student Action Summit. And you're a student, right?
Hannah Faulkner
I. I am a student. It's crazy being here. This is my. I haven't been here because they didn't do it, I guess, last year. I think they did it in 2022, maybe 2023. So it's been a while. Last time I was here, I think I was like, 15, 14 or 15. So it's incredible to see all these young people here.
Sean Kelly
Yeah.
Hannah Faulkner
Rising up and speaking for truth. I mean, Charlie Kirk is doing an incredible job with this movement, and it's impressive to see.
Sean Kelly
I was telling a guest yesterday, I wish I had something like this when I was a student because I was so misguided, so lost, didn't have access to good information.
Hannah Faulkner
Yeah. It's interesting as I watch your podcast and you see, like, this shift among young people especially, and you can even see it here, like from the past conferences and events that they've had for Turning Point events, I think young people are getting even more like. Like, radically conservative. And sometimes it can be kind of concerning. I don't know if you've seen, like, some of the stuff on. On X.
Sean Kelly
Far right stuff.
Hannah Faulkner
Yeah. Like, it's. There's some things. It's like, all right, we got to take a step back. We got to come become a little bit more rational and logical on some of our Talking points. But I think young people as a whole, this is a good thing. You know, it's easier to tame a wild horse than raise a dead one.
Sean Kelly
Right.
Hannah Faulkner
So I think it's. It's an encouraging thing to see when you have a. A generation of young people that are pushing back against the narrative. I mean, obviously you've got the small group of people in New York, the Young Socialists for America, which I'd say is probably the. The Young Socialist Against America. So it's like an oxymoron to call yourself a Young Socialist for America. But you've got them, you know, obviously in New York City protesting for Zoran Mamdani. But here, you know, in Florida, in most states, these young people are pushing back, starting Turning Point USA chapters, Young Women for America chapters, all of these youth organizations at their college campuses. And I was just talking to your producer and like, these kids here are ambitious. I mean, they're like 22 years old, they're getting married, they're having families, they're getting involved in politics, they're showing up to their school board meetings. And that's what it's going to take to turn back this country to what our founding fathers intended it to be. So it's encouraging. Definitely.
Sean Kelly
Very encouraging. I was at Tucker speech last night and I might have been one of the oldest ones in the area. I was sitting in, I was like, wow, this is. This is impressive. Like, people this young care.
Hannah Faulkner
That is insane. I can't wait to see the crowd because I've only met with a few people that I've known so far. I just literally got here as soon as I walked.
Sean Kelly
There was at least a thousand.
Hannah Faulkner
Yeah, it was not thoughts because past conferences, most of it has been. I mean, you've got like a couple, like groups of young people, but most of it was like 40, 50 and up. So I definitely think it's getting younger. And you're. Then people are bringing their kids and then they're bringing their grandkids, then they're telling their friends about it. Because, I mean, Turning Point usa, Charlie Kirk, he does an incredible job of making it very educational, but also very fun and uplifting. And I think that's what young people want. Like, they don't want to sit down at like a, you know, a CPAC type thing. Like, I love cpac, love what they're doing. I think it's awesome.
Sean Kelly
Yeah.
Hannah Faulkner
Hosting these speakers on stage. But in order to get the young people there, you've got to have younger speakers. Like, and I. Paul Luna, you Know, an incredible representative Congress. I mean, who are some other young people? Matt Gates, I think Matt Gates is speaking this week.
Sean Kelly
Yeah.
Hannah Faulkner
But all these people are younger and they're appealing to the younger audiences. Yeah. Jack Wisoba, Riley Gaines, Brett Cooper, all of these younger influencers in the movement that are appealing to these young people. And it's, I think that's, that's really why Charlie Kirk at Turning Point has been so successful.
Sean Kelly
Yeah, it's needed. I mean, Charlie influenced a young vote by at least 5, 10%, in my opinion.
Hannah Faulkner
Yeah.
Sean Kelly
I mean, what he did with, with the college debates and going viral every day, it was a good strategy.
Hannah Faulkner
Well, I mean, you even see before the election, like, how many kids were wearing no maga. Like how many kids were wearing MAGA hats. Like, very few. Before the election, I saw a poll, I think it was 50% of young people lied about who they voted for because of the manipulation, the fear mongering, the name calling that the left likes to pull on. I used to be their fellow peers.
Audible Narrator
Yeah.
Hannah Faulkner
I mean, I could understand. You know, I've never been. I went to public school when I was in kindergarten, and I even remember when I was in kindergarten, I brought church invitations to my classroom and they sent me to the principal's office for inviting my fellow classmates to my church because it was an infringement upon the other classmates. Religious liberty. Right.
Sean Kelly
Wow.
Hannah Faulkner
Which is wild because we left England to get away from a state sponsored religion. We left England to get away from state sponsored persecution. And here we are in 2025 where kids are being sent to the principal's office for specifically inviting their classmates to a Christian church because if they invite them to a mosque, if they invite them to, you know, a Buddhist temple, like they're going to be allowed to invite them. It's just because it's an. They. The. The laugh. The Democratic Party is so opposed to biblical principles and Christian values. And I think it's interesting, kind of getting on a little bit of a rampage here, but you've got like the Zoran Mamdanis, you've got like the, the Gavin Newsoms and the Chris Van Hollands in Congress and all these representatives who will push back against President Trump having a prayer breakfast and saying that's an infringement upon their, their separation of church and state, which isn't mentioned of any in any of our founding documents. What Thomas Jefferson meant with that was to protect the church from state influence. And here we are where the state in 2020 and the federal government in 2020 was saying that Churches are less. Less important than liquor stores, bars, and strip clubs. So that is an infringement upon the church and religious liberty. So it's interesting to see how far we've. We've gotten in. I'm excited to see this youth movement because I think we can pass legislation, we can have a new president in office, but we're gonna have to see a culture shift.
Sean Kelly
Yeah.
Hannah Faulkner
And right now, I think we're seeing one among the young people. I think we gotta keep going. We can't stop. I think we gotta get a little. We gotta get a little lazy. We get a little lazy sometimes. The conservative movement. And I kind of see that right now, even in the midterms with all this Epstein stuff and Pam Bondi, you know, obviously, who I believe is not qualified for that position. I think she should be fired or let go or. I actually think the right thing for her to do would step down. Would be to step down. That would be the. Yeah. The honorable thing for her to do is just say, you know what? I messed up. I don't think I'm qualified for this position. I want someone who is fully qualified and ready to serve as Attorney General of the United States of America to do this. I'm going to go ahead and sit down. That would be the. I mean, that would save herself. That would totally. I mean, everybody would come out, respect her. It would be incredible. But you look at the Epstein stuff, and I think there's, like we were talking about earlier, people aren't finding the middle ground. Like, they're not finding the, like, some sort of. Of middle area to meet in. And they're just going from, like, one extreme to, like, young socialists against America, as I say.
Sean Kelly
Yeah.
Hannah Faulkner
To I guess what they're now calling the woke. Right. Where they're wanting to kick everyone out who isn't a Christian, which obviously is not religious liberty in this country.
Sean Kelly
All right, guys, Sean Kelly here, host of the Digital Social Hour podcast, just filmed 33amazing episodes at Student Action Summit. Shout out to Code Health, you know, sponsor these episodes, but also I took them before filming each day. Felt amazing. Just filmed 20 episodes straight, and I'm not even tired, honestly. So I would say they're very unique. It's going to be the future of health, health and medicine. Code Health has been awesome. Feel the drop and go code yourself.
Hannah Faulkner
So it's interesting to see, like, these. The shifts, but it's. It's very, very interesting. Like one. One extreme to the next.
Sean Kelly
Yeah, it is. Well done. Principal's office in kindergarten. That's Impressive.
Hannah Faulkner
Oh, sent to the principal's.
Sean Kelly
Yeah. Well done. I, I was first grade. I thought I was the youngest to ever pull it off. But kindergarten is impressive.
Hannah Faulkner
Yeah. And it's crazy because it's like you think being said to the principal's office, you had to do something like, pretty egregious to teacher. And they would like put me in different classrooms. I remember one specific time where Barack Obama was running in his second term and they were campaigning and they came to our classroom with these iPads and they said, since the election is coming up, if you could vote, who would you vote for? These are five year olds.
Sean Kelly
Wow.
Hannah Faulkner
Kindergartners. And I remember thinking to myself, because I don't remember having the conversations as much with my parents, maybe I heard conversations about Barack Obama when I was like five.
Sean Kelly
Yeah.
Hannah Faulkner
And his opponent. But we never really got into the, like, the heavy details of it. And I remember asking my teacher, I said, I don't know who to vote for. Who would you vote for? She's like, we would recommend that you would click Barack Obama.
Sean Kelly
Really?
Hannah Faulkner
It's like, this is insane because not only is this, they are propagating a certain candidate in a classroom, a kindergarten classroom, but this is in the conservative state of Tennessee. I mean, this isn't in like Rhode island or Vermont or Massachusetts. I mean, this is Tennessee, like the Bible belts. Right. Where I was sent to the principal's office for inviting my, my classmates to my church that I went to. Sent to. I wasn't sent to the principal's office for this, but literally being indoctrinated to, to vote for Barack Obama as a five year old, if I had the choice. So I mean that it's, it's wild to a lot of people how we got to the point where now we have like in schools, why we're having to fight to get obscene material at our public libraries and kindergarten, middle and high school libraries. And I don't think it's any coincidence when it started with just indoctrinating kids on who to vote for and indoctrinating kids on what seemed as very small, little like, that's not that big of a deal, leading to now where they're literally telling kids, if you feel like the wrong gender, if you feel like you've been born in the wrong body, we have the resources, we have the. They're calling it the clinic or the school to clinic pipeline in many states, which President Trump thankfully is pushing back against this. But it's evading all parental rights, all parental authority, and literally Taking this, the kid to a clinic to get gender reaffirming care, which is not affirming. Because if it was gender affirming care, if someone came to their doctor and was like, I'm confused on my gender, they said, yeah, you've got male genitalia, you're a dude, you'll always be a dude. Same thing with a female. So all of the verbiage is confusing. They love to confuse the verbiage of these things, but it starts with that. And this is why we're seeing the things we're seeing is because 20, 30 years ago, people weren't asking questions. And you look at the older generations, I guess it's like boomers, Gen X, what's above millennial? Better like the 40, 50, 60 year olds. They really didn't ask questions. Like, you're getting these headlines, you're getting these newspapers. All of this legislation being put in place, even in the Ronald Reagan area got like the Vaccine Compensation act where they're liter putting a vaccine tax, like a tax on the vac on your vaccine that you're getting, and it goes to vaccine core. So people who were injured by the vaccine, basically when they got that vaccine, they were literally paying a tax just in case they were to be injured, to go to their court fees.
Sean Kelly
Wow.
Hannah Faulkner
So it's insane. Like, even things like that, that Ronald Reagan, who's kind of been like this great American president who I'm sure did amazing things I didn't, obviously wasn't alive when he was president, but if listen to some of his speeches and he's had some very powerful quotes. But I think the problem is that people aren't asking questions and they're finally getting to the point post Covid, especially where they're like, all right, this is enough, we gotta ask questions.
Sean Kelly
I still can't believe people trust the vaccine stuff. Yeah, like, that blows my mind. Like I'll be at the sauna at Lifetime gym and like it'll come up in conversation. And people get all four vaccines and they don't even question it still. Yeah, this was like a few months ago.
Hannah Faulkner
And it's not even like the COVID vaccine. It's like, even the vaccines that you get when you're, when you have a child in a hospital, they give you like all these vaccines. I think they get like, maybe I could be totally wrong. Someone can fact check me on this. But it's like 8 to 12 before they're like 5 years old, maybe more. Geez, more than that. And so as soon as Your baby's born in a hospital. If you consent to it. If you don't consent to it, they like browbeat you for hours because you're, you know, not compassionate to your child. You're not loving your child because they can get some kind of disease.
Sean Kelly
I'm telling them I get there that I'm not doing it.
Hannah Faulkner
Yeah, you're not doing it. Like it's. There is no reason. And the way that they present it as, I mean, even my. I don't know if you need to have Dr. Brian artist. You know? Dr. Brian artist.
Sean Kelly
Brian Artist. No.
Hannah Faulkner
Oh, your clips will go viral. You should. Okay, I'll set you up with him after. But he, I've had him on my show a couple times and he breaks down like why he thinks nicotine is not addictive. It's not like nicotine itself, but isn't addictive. It's the substances that are in these nicotine pouches that are actually causing these addictions in people, like the chemicals. He wears like a nicotine patch on himself. Like I think it's like 7, 8 milligrams of nicotine on his arm to prevent diseases. Anyways, there's like all this propaganda. He even breaks down how like the flu vaccine causes early onset of hearing loss. And who are getting most of these flu vaccines? Like 60, 70 year olds. When does like most major hearing loss start? Like soon after these people are getting these flu vaccines. So you should have him on. He's incredible. But it's like all these things that people aren't asking. It's like if I'm still getting the flu after getting the flu vaccine, like clearly it's not preventing the virus. And someone the other day told me they got the COVID 19 vaccine and they were so grateful, even though they were sicker than they ever thought they had been. After getting the COVID 19 vaccine and getting Covid after they got the vaccine, they're like, it could have been worse because I could have died because I didn't have the vaccines. It's like all this propaganda that even conservatives are like adopting into and you know, love President Trump, but in the beginning, and I really think it was due to, it's Anthony Fauci and a lot of these so called medical professionals that were around him and surrounding him that led him to believe like this was it, you know, this was the, the real deal for the American people, for the world that was going to cure it. And I think now obviously the Trump administration is waking up realizing that it isn't and him bringing in RFK Jr has been an incredible. When getting rid of fluoride in our water, like working on that. And people, when they, they take the chemical abortion pill, it's causing a lot of infertility in women because now you're drinking the water. So there's all these chemicals. I mean, it's insane. Like there's, there's just such a rabbit hole. And not to mention the SSRIs that these young kids are getting on on a daily basis. Dr. Bryan Artist actually did a study. Every single school shooting in the last 52 years, every single one of those school shooters was on some type of SSRI or anti anxiety.
Sean Kelly
No way.
Hannah Faulkner
So it's like once you start pulling back the layers, like people say this is a mental illness. It's more than a mental illness. These people are on these, these drugs that are messing with their psyche, they're messing with their, their brainwaves and causing them to have violent, homicidal or suicidal behavior. And it's no coincidence that there's such a spike, such an increase in this kind of behavior among young people especially.
Sean Kelly
Could be a form of mind control too.
Hannah Faulkner
Yeah, 100%. I mean, it all goes together. I mean the Prozac was like they teamed up with the CIA to, to, to form and to formulate this Prozac.
Sean Kelly
Wow. I didn't know that.
Hannah Faulkner
I watched this, this, the commercial and the way that they. And this is why I'm glad that RFK Jr. Is doing this, is also getting rid of all these commercials.
Sean Kelly
I hope you guys are enjoying the show. Please don't forget to like and subscribe. It helps the show a lot with the algorithm. Thank you. Yeah.
Hannah Faulkner
These ads where they make Ozempic look like some beautiful, nice, cheery pill, it's not. It paralyzes your vagus nerve to where you can't digest food. It sits in your stomach until you throw it up or eventually makes its way out. It's like, it's not healthy. These people are dropping weight because it's literally paralyzing your vagus nerve.
Sean Kelly
Cheese.
Hannah Faulkner
So it's all these things, you know, that they don't. They're not going to tell you.
Sean Kelly
Yeah, that's awful.
Hannah Faulkner
But you have to do your own research.
Sean Kelly
Yeah. You have to. Do you think birth control should be banned?
Hannah Faulkner
Birth control too? Because not only is there a population, I mean, look at it, birth control. They're literally trying to control the birth of the population. I mean, the birth rate has dropped tremendously in the last 10, 15 years, especially over the last five years, people aren't having children anymore. They're waiting until, you know, 35, 40 years old to even begin having children. And then the first 20, 30 years of their, you know, teenage to adult life, they were on birth control or other types of drugs that affect your fertility. Not just that they're doing research that it is affecting the way that a woman's brain, like the way that she thinks. And I haven't done all the research into the, like the brain and how she's thinking, but now she's like attracted to different types of men. It's weird, it's crazy, but for me it's like you go back to the history when Margaret Sanger said that eugenics is like a house built upon the sand without birth control. So they put this pill in place in the early 1900s, specifically with the goal. I mean, they coined the term in 1912, 1914, I believe it was 1912.
With the intent to control the population, specifically to get rid of what they deemed as the unfit of the population, the black community. So this, I mean, these nobody talk, nobody's talking about this. You don't hear any mainstream media outlet talking about these things. They might talk about the scientific aspect of it and why it's not healthy. But like, what about the historical asset? Like, why was this even brought up in the first place?
Sean Kelly
Yeah, I was on Xanax in college. That shit messed me up.
Hannah Faulkner
Yeah. My dad was on Prozac when He was like 9, 10 years old. And he said he had never thought, thought about the things, like he never acted upon anything, but he said he had the most. He vividly remember at 19 years old having some of the most insane, very violent, like just thoughts come across his.
Sean Kelly
Mind at nine years old. She's.
Hannah Faulkner
I mean, he grew up in a very rough home and his story is, you know, is his own, but very rough home. And they put it on, put him on Prozac to help with some of his, the issues that he was having from a broken family that he was in. But he said he vividly remembers being on that pillow they got. He took it off. They took it off of him. I think like three, four months after being on Prozac. But it was damaging. I mean, he's. He said he was never thinking about such violent thoughts until he was on Prozac. And I hear that every day. And people committing suicide because they get on these SSRIs or anti anxiety medication and they were never suicidal before. Never violent before.
Sean Kelly
Ironic.
Hannah Faulkner
Yeah. So there's A lot of things I don't think people. And that's the thing too. It's like one of my favorite quotes is from Thomas Jefferson. The best defense against tyranny is a well informed society. And the reason we're here is obviously because we've, we've created a society, I believe, of weak men and emotional women. I mean, 76% of women voted for the Democratic Party in 2020. 58% of men voted for the Republican Party. Why? Because women tend to base their decisions off of the emotions. We've got to be more logical about our decisions. Like, the Democratic Party clearly does not care about women's rights. They clearly do not care about protecting women and the next generation. But we are also here because again, we haven't asked enough questions and we have not been informed about the things that we are signing ourselves up for.
Sean Kelly
Yeah.
Hannah Faulkner
And we're all guilty of it. And you don't have to be some, you know, mass expert to understand what's happening, but just do some research. I mean, look at the trends, look at what happened under the Soviet Union, look at what happened under Mao's culture revolution, that the similarities between what we even saw during COVID 19 with these tyrannical dictators. So it's, it's wild. But ask questions.
Sean Kelly
You gotta ask at this. Which, which university are you at?
Hannah Faulkner
I actually just graduated with my bachelor's on July 4th from Liberty University.
Sean Kelly
Wow, that was fast. So, holy crap. Well done.
Hannah Faulkner
This is why I always say people need to homeschool their kids. Any of your listeners homeschool your kids? I. People are like, you know, what should I do? I don't really know if I want to homeschool my kids. Homeschool them. Like public schools. There's no saving them. Everything is messed up. I mean, ideology upon ideology, critical race theory, telling your kid that they're oppressed if they're a certain color and then they're oppressing someone else if they're white.
Homeschool your kids. There is, that's it. Like, there is no better option than homeschooling kids. And there's, there's charter schools, there's private schools. But if you want your kid to be truly just have that propeller of success. I mean, I raced motocross competitively when I was 13 and 14. I lived at a training facility during COVID 20, 20 and 21. And I would not have been able to do that if I weren't homeschooled. I remember reading on the bike five hours a day off the bike three hours a day that we do some school. But you wouldn't be able to do that if you're homeschooled. So, I mean, there's just so many things your kids can pursue their passions, not be indoctrinated, and actually learn some very valuable skills for their life.
Sean Kelly
How long were you homeschooled for?
Hannah Faulkner
I only went to kindergarten after my parents saw that.
Sean Kelly
After you went to the principal's office?
Hannah Faulkner
The principal's. I always, I was always on red specifically because I asked questions. I, I always.
Sean Kelly
They don't like that.
Hannah Faulkner
Yeah. They do not like questions in public schools.
Sean Kelly
No. That's why I didn't ask him, to be honest, because I was scared. I was scared to. But now if I were to go back and do it again, I would ask, you know.
Hannah Faulkner
Yeah.
Sean Kelly
But I was super shy, super nervous, because as soon as you asked a question, they would just be you. Yeah. You didn't feel good about asking questions.
Hannah Faulkner
Yeah.
Sean Kelly
You know, and a lot of kids probably relate to that.
Hannah Faulkner
Yeah. I mean, it's, it's psychological warfare. I mean, even, like, even going into college right now, you've got the University of Pennsylvania coming out last week saying they're going to comply with President Trump's executive order, no men and women's sports, which obviously we know that was only because about $175 million is on the line of federal funding. That's the only reason why they said they were going to apologize to the female athletes, which it wasn't even apology because they sent letters to Paula Scanlon, who was forced to undress with William Thomas, the dude who thought he was a woman 18 times per week, she had to undress and watch this dude in her locker room undress. Not to mention the other, you know, other swimmers, the female swimmers that were on this team, that also were forced. But the psychological tactics, the, the warfare that they used against these young girls, the same thing that they did in your kindergarten where they, they forced you basically, that to make you live in fear to where you couldn't ask questions. And now they're telling them, if you dare to speak up about what's happening in our country, if you dare to question the narrative or that William Thomas is on the swim team, you're going to lose opportunities, you're going to lose careers, you're going to lose scholarships. But if you want to, to get help, we've got these gender affirming classes. This, I don't know, some of them are called, like, how to get away from your heteronormativity which is like, how. Because it's like, basically that you're so normal with heterosexuals. It's like, the principle of it. Because, you know, Olivia Krulchek, she was. She got a zero on a paper on feminism for saying the word biological female on her paper. It's probably actually here. Maybe you could get an interview with her. But, yeah, and I believe it was 2022, 2023, she received a zero on her paper for saying the word biological female. And ironically, the paper was on feminism and the achievements of women. But you can't say the word biological female because the professor said not only was it, like, oppressive to the men who think they're women. Obviously they didn't say it like that, but they're men who are putting on this caricature of. Of women, of a woman, of womanhood. And they said that it showed signs of heteronormativity, which, like, you said, like, what in the world is that?
Sean Kelly
No one knows what that means.
Hannah Faulkner
It's like all these terms. Cisgender. No, there's just normal and there's abnormal. It's very simple. Like, you're either normal or you're not. Like, there's no in between. There's no cisgender. I'm not cisgender. I'm a female. You're a dude. Like, it's so simple. Stop confusing this. These terms. And that's why we call it the cult of confusion, because they want you to be running around confused all day. Is that a man? Is that a woman? I don't know. Like, how can we tell? Yeah, it's insane. Like, you should never. I mean, that's when you know that your society has rejected any, like, level of common sense, moral standards. When you are walking down the road and you can't even tell if someone is a male or female.
Sean Kelly
Yeah. And the left eyes on that hill, they love the tramp stuff for some reason. I don't know why.
Hannah Faulkner
Well, you know, it's interesting. You. You had Adam Mockler on your show. I had Adam Mockler on my show like, a year and a half ago. And he was like, there's this guy in the conservative move. I don't even want to call him a conservative, but more of a Republican, I guess you could say.
Sean Kelly
Who?
Hannah Faulkner
His name's Blair White.
Sean Kelly
Yeah.
Hannah Faulkner
And like, you would literally think this guy is a girl. Like, he. I don't know what he had done that to make him look like, literally like a female. But it's sad. It is. It's really sad. That you can't. It's hard to tell is this a woman or a dude? Like, you don't know? And he said, so do you condone what he's doing? I'm like, I don't care if you're a Republican, if you're a Democrat, if you're putting on woman face what Bruce Jenner and all of these people are doing, like, I'm not going to condone your lifestyle. I don't care what you've got beside your name and rd like, it's. It's identity fraud. You know, someone asked me the other day, I was talking to Tom Renz, he's a lawyer, and he goes, and I agree with what you say. I agree that we got to have a cultural shift in our country to get to. To get back to where we understand that this is wrong for men to walk into women's bathrooms. But we're not going to be able to change it legally because people can do whatever they want, right? You have the freedom to do so. And I'm like, no, actually, this is identity fraud. When you are putting on a caricature of a woman and dressing up as a woman, like, that's identity fraud. Same thing goes for a man. So, yeah, we actually can make this illegal in the United States of America. But we have too many cowardly Republicans that are willing to stand up and say, like, yeah, this is identity fraud. Hey, Tim McBride in Congress, if you can't even lead yourself, you shouldn't be able to lead a country. I mean, you've got a dude in Congress while we were on the brink of World War 3 in December of 2024, who is complaining because he can't go into the women's bathroom at Capitol Hill.
Sean Kelly
Crazy.
Hannah Faulkner
It's insanity. Absolute insanity. So we've got to have a revival in this country. More young people stand up. But we also need the older generation. Because the amount of older people that I talk to, and I'm not saying they're. They're not old. They're. They have. The older generations. They're 40, 56, 70, 80 years old. The amount of people within those generations that I talk to that have no idea what's happening in our country would claim to be a feminist any day of the week, but have no idea what feminism actually is. So we gotta wake up all generations, and we've got to have a revival.
Sean Kelly
Have you debated a feminist yet?
Hannah Faulkner
I've invited several on the show. I actually invited what's that Girl's Day? She's not a Fence feminist. But her name is Pearl.
Sean Kelly
Pearl Davis.
Hannah Faulkner
Yeah, yeah, Pearl Davis. So is her name Hannah?
Sean Kelly
Oh, is it? I didn't know that.
Hannah Faulkner
Like, I see Hannah and then I.
Sean Kelly
See, okay, that might be her real name. Pearl's probably a. Yeah.
Hannah Faulkner
Okay, is it Hannah? All right, Hannah, Pearl. Hannah, whatever.
Sean Kelly
She. She's not a feminist.
Hannah Faulkner
She's not a feminist. But I wanted to have her on because I agree with a lot of things that she says and then some things maybe she might take too far. I can't really think of too many of them right now, so I'm not going to say specifics, but I'm sure there's some things that she has said that I'm like, ah, maybe that's a little bit too far. But overall, she says some pretty valid things about the conservative movement and how we've got to get rid of feminism. It's. Feminism has been truly the greatest threat to the family unit between one man and one woman. I mean, pitting men and women against one another from the get go. And people will say, oh, well, what about the suffrage movement? Right? What about the 19th Amendment? And I'm not saying we should repeal the 19th, I'm not saying we should do that because you can't. You're not gonna. Even if you try to create a campaign that's like, repeal the 19th, it's not gonna happen.
Sean Kelly
So it's unreal trying to do that right now.
Hannah Faulkner
Yeah, they're trying, but it's a waste of time. Like, we've got, we've got other things to fight right now, but factually, every single election since the 19th Amendment was put in place, if women weren't participating in that election, every.
Sean Kelly
Every Republican conservative.
Hannah Faulkner
Yeah, we would have been.
Sean Kelly
Which is crazy, right?
Hannah Faulkner
So it's like we can say that women should have the right to vote, but then, like, this is what the data says, right? So I'm not saying either way is right because we're not going to repeal the 19th. At the end of the day, again, women think with their emotions more. And I think the thing that people don't realize is that it wasn't just women who couldn't vote before the 19th Amendment was put in place. If you didn't own land, if you didn't pay taxes and contribute to society, you couldn't participate in election, couldn't participate in society. Like, you couldn't participate in the decisions that were being made for your country. And that's like the logical thing to do if you aren't contributing to our society. Like you should be able to participate in the voting process regardless of whether or not you're male or female. I think that would be ideal. Instead of saying we should repeal the 19th.
I don't even remember. Oh, yeah. Debating a feminist.
Sean Kelly
Feminist.
Hannah Faulkner
Yeah, yeah, no, I'd love to. I've invited. I would love to have even on, like, Bonnie Blue. That would be so interesting.
Sean Kelly
I could line that up. I could line up either Bonnie or, you know, name the trout.
Hannah Faulkner
No, but I, I is that is true. Is that a phoenix?
Sean Kelly
She's the one that debated Charlie with the nose ring. The black girl. Yeah. I'll set one up for you.
Hannah Faulkner
Yeah, I would love to have the one. Because I think a lot of people don't realize that the feminist movement has led to that. People say, oh, that's a different. That's a different segment. No, it's like that is literally why the sexual revolution started. And maybe it wasn't that far, maybe it wasn't that extreme to where they're trying to sleep with a thousand men in 24 hours. But it's the idea of saying that men and women are equal. Men or women can do anything a man can do. There's no difference between us. It's just a social construct. It is no coincidence that we went from that to saying men and women are equal when we're not. We're equal in value. We're not equal in our role. It's common sense. And the girls sports issue, ironically, is literally proving that men and women are different. So it's like all of this is crumbling. It's just proving that feminism does not work at its core.
Sean Kelly
And I don't know why that's a controversial take, to say we're different.
Hannah Faulkner
Yeah, I don't know either. And it's funny, I. I literally was at a conservative event a couple about a year ago, and they interviewed some of the people that were there. And I was the only interview that didn't get posted because I said this one thing. They said, how does it make you feel that the party that used to be for women's rights is no longer fighting for them? I said, the problem is, is that the Democratic Party in the left has never been for women's rights. The feminist movement has nothing to do with fighting for women because what has it led to? The National Organization for Women, the largest feminist organization today. One of their main priorities is to create a worldwide legalization of prostitution. Explain to me how that's empowering women. One of their other main goals is obviously to. To legalize abortion in all 50 states to get rid of all abortion restrictions. What is abortion? It's telling a woman that in order for you to be successful, in order for you to live a good life, you should terminate. You should murder the life that was conceived inside of you. Well, after a woman has an abortion, she's over 155% more likely to struggle with suicidal behavior. What is pro woman about that? There's nothing pro one. And now you're seeing with the chemical abortion pill where they're literally doing at home abortions.
Sean Kelly
Cheese.
Hannah Faulkner
They're sending it through telehealth.
Sean Kelly
I didn't know that was a thing.
Hannah Faulkner
You know, and it's interesting too, like Roe versus Wade. I truly believe it's a sign of God's judgment, our country, that we let God to get to a point where we have to overturn Roe v. Wade to get back to the states. I mean, we'll take a when for a when. But even with that, a year after Roe vs Wade was overturned in 2023, 2024, the. These statistics of abortion was actually higher than during Roe vs. Wade when it was put in place because of the chemical abortion pill. So now we have a new issue to take care of.
Sean Kelly
So you could just get it on the phone now.
Hannah Faulkner
Yeah, you can. And young people are getting it.
Sean Kelly
You could just say you're pregnant.
Hannah Faulkner
Years old. Yeah. If you just look up and they even have some that aren't because they have the chemical abortion pill that is approved by the FDA and then they have some that are like off the market.
Sean Kelly
Yeah.
Hannah Faulkner
To where anyone like, you can just. Without any kind of like, appointment you can.
Sean Kelly
Holy crap.
Hannah Faulkner
So it's a very dangerous line to be told.
Sean Kelly
Yeah, that is scary.
Hannah Faulkner
And I mean, even going back to the health side, like, it's. It's going into our water systems and it's affecting people who didn't even get the abortion. So this is a broader issue than even just obviously the most basic of killing an innocent life in its mother's womb.
Sean Kelly
It's nuts. Hannah, where can people watch your show and support you?
Hannah Faulkner
The Hannah Faulkner show on Rumble. My Instagram's Hannah Faulkner, 1776. And then my website is Culture of 1776.
Sean Kelly
Check her out, guys. Thanks for coming on again.
Hannah Faulkner
Thank you so much.
