thread in the woven tapestry of out and out in evil that is this version of the Democrat Party. I mean, it used to be an oversimplification to just say a whole stinking major political party is evil, but damn if it isn't. There's good and bad, right? Basic things for a kid, good and bad. What good? What good is there within the Democrat Party? If the premise of anything is false, anything built in that false premise is too, man. When your whole premise, homosexual Alphabet, abortion on demand, all kinds of things that are not exactly right from a sense of morality, kind of sets you up for everything else. To walk you through what's happened today, I'm going to walk you through once again this version of the Democrat Party being the most dangerous yet. By now you figured out this is not Mark. No fear, he's back Monday. It is always an honor and a pleasure to be here though, with you. I do love the opportunities, love the time that we have together. Brian Mudd for the Great One.

So as I'm taking a look at this version of the Democrat Party being the most dangerous yet. Okay. News flow today and just kind of working through a lot of the things that. That happened and. And when they came in during the course of the day. All right, so we have the

Iranian plot to kill Trump. The new Iranian plot to kill Trump. As Trump said, I'm number one on
- [03:46]
Mark Love
the kill list for Iran. They're lovely people. I'm number one. So I don't know. I can't tell you that. But I don't really care because I'm doing my job, and I'm doing it, I hope, better than anybody's ever done it.
- [03:59]
Brian Mudd
Yeah. So sad that he's got so many attempts on his life. He's already survived more assassination attempts on him than any president has survived in American history, that he's come up with new instructions for what to do in the event that he is offed and just remarkable for all the wrong reasons. And you might be wondering, okay, well, what does that have to do with this version of the Democrat Party being the most dangerous yet? It's an Iranian assassination plot. Oh. Also in the news today, Imam Donnie official was set to meet with an Iranian official, the UN Ambassador to Iran, somebody who goes along with the crowd that chants, death to Israel, Death to America. Somebody who believes in the. Well, Imam, the 12th Imam, somebody who is out and out evil. Imam Donnie official was. Was set to meet with until the State Department team Rubio found out about this meeting and put a stop to it. And so that brought this comment from Commie mom, Donnie, today, that meeting did not take place. It will not take place. And I did not know about it until there was a press inquiry regarding it. And when it comes to the work of our commissioner and our international affairs office, it's to ensure that as we are a city of the world, that we are also there to meet with leaders from across the world. Oh, you didn't know about the meeting? You just are such a pos that you hire people that want to meet with Islamic terrorists. I just hire the people that sympathize with Islamic terrorists that want to kill the President of the United States. I didn't know about the meeting. I just employed those people, and they work for me. That's who I'm surrounded by. It wasn't me, Mom. Donnie goes all shaggy defense here. Was it me, you scumbag? Pos Islamic terror Sponsoring. Sorry, Saki, you know what? But how many times have Democrats sympathize, even openly with assassinating or attempting to assassinate conservatives? I mean, it's just so fitting. They have the Tyler Robinson hearing that's been playing out all throughout the course of this week. How many people cheered the assassination of Charlie Kirk? By the way, that one Utah prosecutor in the case in today's hearing, if you've been keeping up with the news flow on it this week, he summed it up pretty well to the judge. The evidence is overwhelming, it's devastating. And the question needs to be asked the purpose of continuing with testimony if it's long and drawn out. Yeah, Tyler Robinson this just then he's guilty. This version of the Democrat Party is the most dangerous yet. You have the mayor and his associates, largest city in our country, totally down with Islamic terrorists that among other things, want to assassinate and have been trying to assassinate and have a new plot to assassinate the President of the United States. On the other side of things, you have the assassination case of Charlie Kirk with much of the Democrat base, in addition to numerous officials that out and out cheered and celebrated his assassination. These people are dangerous. The most dangerous version yet. There used to be some sense of human decency. This is where I start to think about things and this is where you need to have the uncomfortable moment. If you think about how dark, demented and disgusting it is that you have people that would hear about an attempted assassination or an actual assassination and on some level respond as though, oh, isn't that interesting? That's too bad it wasn't successful in the case of Trump or, well, you know, Charlie Kirk was, you know, he was a bigot and all those things, Right. When that's somebody's reaction or worse, they just out, out now cheer. How surprising is it when you have a political ideology, when you have a political party that has in its platform killing the most innocent as a fundamental right. We like to make a lot of stuff complicated. Sometimes it's simple. What is abortion? What is abortion? So at the point where you think abortion on demand is, is a right, What else is surprising? At the point where it is your party's position and drilled into every single person that is part of your universe that it's okay to whack as many babies in the womb as possible. Why does anything else from a point of morality really surprise? This version of the Democrat Party is the most dangerous?
- [09:54]
Caller/Listener
Yeah.
- [09:59]
Brian Mudd
So then we move on from the Iranian terror plot. Madani's co workers, people he hires the Tyler Robinson Trial. Oh, what else do we have? The other assassination of PL and Trump. That's right, the UFC terror plot, where we learned all kinds of things. Today, of course, eight are total arrests that have been made. Eight total arrests. And among the other things, of course, the ringleader, none other than a Mexican illegal immigrant. You have the U.S. attorney, there's a presser earlier today to kind of break down all the findings in the case. With the investigation now having run its course and then believing they got everybody that was involved with it. This is U.S. attorney Dominic Gerais. The indictment handed down yesterday consolidates all

And this, the second count is a

Mark Levin
official, including the President of the United States, the Vice President of the United

Brian Mudd
States and members of Congress. Every time you turn around, assassination stuff, right? We almost forget, forget. We have three leading stories today that have to do with assassination plots or actual assassination one day. And all of them have ties to the political left in this country. All of them. This version of the Democrat Party is the most dangerous yet. This is FBI special agent in charge of the UFC terror plot case, Jason Cromarty, Command post. Coordinated interviews, intelligence analysis and execution of search warrants around the country. Quickly identified additional participants and evidence of this conspiracy. This resulted in additional subjects being arrested by the FBI over a matter of

Mark Levin
days in several states.
- [12:47]
Brian Mudd
Oh, and then we have, speaking of the Democrat Party, two other special situations. One that we learned where Rubio interdicted to eliminate from this country an illegal alien child rapist, the Tim Waltz pardon, and just a bit ago, the official Graham Platner resignation. Speaking of this version of the Democrat Party being the most dangerous yet, we'll dive into those two dynamics as well. Next, I'm Brian Mudd in for the great one.

If you missed out on Gold in 2020, if you missed the rally in 2025, it's not too late. Right now gold is sitting about 20% off its all time high earlier this year, so you could buy it at a discount. The fundamentals that drove gold over 3, $5,000 an ounce, they're still strong. It's a limited commodity. You can't just print more of it. Gold often remains your hedge in times of inflation, war and political uncertainty. So get diversified and add gold with monetary gold. For 26 years, monetary gold has helped Americans own gold and silver in a tax sheltered retirement account like an IRA or a 401k. Five stars on the Better Business Bureau and consumer affairs.

Brian Mudd
So this version of the Democrat Party is the most dangerous yet every day in so many different ways to FOX News this Donald Trump Jr. About the Charlie Kirk case in court, we saw the facts laid out very eloquently. It took a long period of time to get it out there. But once you see it, you put the picture together. Let's just say this is to me again, way beyond a reasonable doubt.
- [15:07]
Caller/Listener
Yeah.
- [15:07]
Brian Mudd
No question about it. Tyler Robinson is guilty. But then again, the Democrat Party is guilty of being the most dangerous yet they're guilty of fostering a culture of evil, a culture of hatred, starting with the most innocent life and targeting routinely the president of the United States, his life and so many in between. It is a remarkable situation we find ourselves in. You know, one of the things that is easy to take for granted in the day to day for all of us, how many close calls there have been. Where would we be as a country if the left had been successful in the assassination of Trump? And you think about how many threats he's under. We know about what we know about how much is going on that we have no clue about. So other news beyond the UFC terror plot, beyond the Tyler Robinson hearings this week, beyond the Mamdani official attempting to meet with an Iranian official as Iran is attempting to assassinate the president of the United States. You have the story about Marco Rubio, secretary of state, stepping in. You may recall we talked about it recently, the unbelievable, unconscionable. But I suppose in the context of this version of the Democrat Party, understandable thing. Tim Walz, that close to becoming your vice president. Right. Takes a look at this guy, an illegal alien who had raped a 10 year old girl and then continued to do so for two years. And he took a look at this illegal alien child rapist and he pardoned him. You know, the illegal alien child rapist did say after all, hey, it's just a cultural thing. I didn't know it was wrong. That's what we do back home, you know, Laos. Yeah. So he pardoned him so he could be free on the streets of Minnesota again. So what we learned today is that you had Rubio that immediately stepped in, ended up getting the information for this guy, ended up getting ICE involved, ended up getting him detained and he has been deported. So now you have the illegal immigrant child rapist who is back home where apparently it's culturally acceptable to rape 10 year olds. If you're to take him at face value, as Tim Wallace did, thought it was cool. This version of the Democrat Party is the most dangerous yet. What has to be wrong with you? What has to be broken in the brain for you to ever do something like that? Who in their right mind would put an illegal alien child rapist in somebody else's community in proximity to other children? Tim Walls that close to being the vice president, the governor of Minnesota. This version of the Democrat party, the most dangerous yet. The establishment is that dangerous. Be right back.

Brian Mudd
Yeah, so this version of the Democrat Party is the most dangerous yet. Brian Mudd with you. And so much today in the news that hits straight back at what I ended up first bringing to you 15 days ago when I broke down. This version of the Democrat Party being the most dangerous yet to work through the news. It's talked about the Tim Walls pardon. We talked about Rubio stepping in to deport the illegal alien. You think about where we would be if President Trump weren't in place today, what this country would already look like, the transformation that would have been completed as we work through the news in the first half hour, we still haven't gotten to the Graham Platner resignation that's, that's coming here. You know, one of the things about Mamdani in particular the one of his officials meeting with, setting to meet with the UN Ambassador for Iran, someone who is a member of a terrorist regime that has a new assassination plot for President Trump independent of the previous ones. This also ties in with this version of the Democrat Party being the most dangerous yet. Fox's Mike Emanuel. New York City Mayor Zoran Mamdani refuses to affirm Israel as a Jewish state, calls AIPAC monsters and does not condemn intifada rhetoric.
- [21:56]
Caller/Listener
But his net favorability rating among Jewish Americans is 32 points higher than Netanyahu's.
- [22:04]
Brian Mudd
Now Democrats on November's ballot, like Melot Kiros on Ms. Now, are bashing US support for the Prime Minister. The genocide that we are complicit in with our taxpayer dollars, taxpayer dollars that otherwise could be used here at home to build more hospitals, to fund our public education. There are a couple things about that. One is the obvious on the point of this, about these self hating Jews apparently. And the other is if you just take at face value what these socialists, what these Marxists are actually running, we need the money we're using to make sure that Israel exists, that Iran does not have a nuclear weapon and we don't have a nuclear World War three. We need to build government hospitals. So now we've moved on from Medicare for all to we need government hospitals too. What? Well, what we have a problem with is we don't have government built and run hospitals. I don't have enough. Right, because you talk to guys at the va, man, that, that's a swimmingly great experience consistently over the years, right. It just like what, what even goes on with these people. They're, they're running on stuff that just doesn't even make sense. And of course always just more money for the schools. Okay, about the Jews, couple of things. One, where I am in South Florida, that is certainly not the case. Trump won Boca three times. But for the Jews elsewhere where you have Mamdani, that is over 30 points more popular than Netanyahu with Jews. What it brings back is what happens when you embrace a false premise. As I mentioned, if the premise of anything is false, anything built on it will be too. This version of the Democrat party is the most dangerous yet. You, you pretty much have to be broken in the brain to sit here and take a look at what goes on with These politicians and think, yeah, I want to be part of this. I want to be part of the party who takes a look at illegal aliens and wants to open the border and let them all in. And along with it, a quarter of all crime committed in this country, as I've shared with you in analysis, by the end of the Biden administration, a quarter of all crime committed in this country, illegal aliens, A quarter. Because this version of the Democratic Party is the most dangerous yet. And you have people go, yeah, let's bring that in. And then people then take a look at somebody like Tim Walsh and go, yeah, you know, I mean, okay, so he raped a 10 year old girl until she was 12. What's so bad about that? Second chances, right? We want to put that person back in a neighborhood near you. You have a communist anti semitic person like Mandani who's elected the largest city in this country. And then there's Maine. See, one of the things that is, I think so instructive. As conservatives, we'll take a look at, you know, the left and we often will segment it out, right? So we look at New York City and San Francisco and Washington D.C. perhaps Los Angeles, select cities, you know, your Portlands, your Seattle's and those kind of go in a bucket. And then you will take a look at, well, the, the establishment Democrats, whoever. No, the establishment is that corrupt. Remember how the establishment, right down to Chuck U. Schumer ended up saying, yeah, that Graham Platner, he's my guy. And Graham Platner was their guy all the way through the primary, all the way through the indication that he had been out there womanizing for years. The Nazi tattoo, anti Semitic rhetoric on the regular. Which is also the great thing because you know, he tried to. Well, I, I didn't even know it was a Nazi tattoo. And then every other thing he says is anti Semitic. So Graham Platner officially turned in his resignation and just about two hours ago now. And in that it was instructive yet again, he, among other things, he did a couple, couple paragraphs that were people voted not for billionaires or oligarchs, people like me. Then he finishes his official resignation letter by saying this. My name may have been on the ballot, but that ballot line belongs to the people of Maine. As such, please consider this note as my official withdrawal from consideration for this office. F ice. Free Palestine up the hearts. He signs his resignation letter to drop out of the cinerace in Maine with F ice. And he spells it out Free Palestine up the heart. This version of The Democrat Party is the most dangerous yet. These people are evil. Counting out evil. Here's the problem I mentioned. We associate the specific areas we think are most radical. Oh yeah, you know, we will. And maybe even mentally excuse. Oh, it's New York City. What do you expect, huh? What about Maine? How many people taking a look at Maine and gone, man, those Maine radicals, you know, just your average Democrat in Maine said, yeah, give me this Graham Platner guy. Give me the womanizing, seriously nasty, anti semitic socialist, give me that guy. What does that tell you about the base of the Democrat Party? See something else I shared with you recently and this is what is so important to know. I, I anytime I think about this reminds me of Elon Musk going back about four years ago when he started to really voice some political thoughts. I remember him on X posting a little stickman graph. And he identified himself once upon a time as a Democrat. And he showed what happened over the course of the time. And it wasn't that he went anywhere politically. He went from being left of center to way right of center because of how far gone the Democrat Party was and he was statistically right. One of the things that Pew research has shown, what's actually happened to the Democrat Party, right, Because if you think about just 20 years ago, we're even talking pre Obama's run in 2008, he was just getting ready to get warmed up. Remember, Obama ran on no gay marriage, remember that? Among other things, no gay marriage. And then we ended up in a place where you have a homosexual Alphabet. And, and the Democrat Party position is that not only can you be anything that you pretend that you want to be, but we should have child mutilation paid for by taxpayers. How do you go from that in under 20 years? And that's just one very small example. Well, the answer is, as Pew has shown you, you have the three buckets that will be broken out on each side for Democrats. You have those that consider themselves to be moderate Democrats, those that consider themselves to be somewhat liberal, and then those that consider themselves to be very liberal. We're the full on socialist, communist, Marxist. Now those people, if you go back 20 years ago, the smallest bucket was the very, very Liberal of the three. What's happened is every year over the past 20 years, an average of 1% of people who identify as Democrats in this country have moved further to the left. And so whereas 20 years ago those that said we're very liberal were the smallest bucket of the three, they're now the biggest barrel, the biggest bucket. Of those three, the base of the Democrat Party is now the hardest left. Now, if you can get everybody else in the Democrat Party by way of constituency together, you can still get to a higher percentage between those who consider themselves to be moderate, which are not many, and those who consider themselves to be somewhat but the biggest of three and the one that is continuing to gain traction. Be very liberal. And this is how you end up in this particular place to where just your average Democrat voter in Maine is down with a womanizing Nazi tattoo. F ice free Palestine, which of course means no Israel that's from the river to the sea means you can't have Israel. You eradicate the Jews. That's your base. Just I'm a main Democrat voter now. This version of the Democrat Party is the most dangerous yet. And it takes me back to the clip I played from Mike Emanuel for you about polling that's showing Maudani being over 30 points more popular with Jews than Netanyahu. How would that be? Well, somewhere along the way, if you associate with this version of the Democrat Party, your brain is going to break, right? Because you're not going to take a look at sense and sensibility. You're not going to take a look at anything from a point of morality. There is no room for the the founding morality of this country. There's certainly nothing biblically acceptable about what goes on in the Democrat Party. I mean, absolutely nothing these days. So how is it that you then rationalize it? This is where you get into the you can't rationalize the inherently irrational. How is it that you could have Jews in this country that would associate with somebody that is anti Semitic and has been very overt about hating Jews and supports those who are persecuting Jews? You're trying to rationalize the inherently irrational. What's happened is you're a very liberal person now, which is the base of the Democrat Party. These are not rational people. They are dangerous people more often than not. Hence today's news cycle. Brian Mudd in for the great.

Hey, it's obvious that Zoron does not understand how already overtax the tax base was to begin with when he campaigned on wanting to do government run grocery stores. What did John Christmas see these, the Greek guy and Alvin Luna and all the bodega owners get do to deserve a guy who's going to want to then have perpetual wealth taxes for his three pet projects, child care for all which he won't get rid of. Waste, fraud and abuse. He won't. He wants to go in direct competition with these, these markets. And another policy that he wanted to do like free buses, you would have to have, well, taxes down to net, I mean to ground zero. And they won't get rid of net zero which makes the cost of everything. They talk about a 400, but they support all these climate policies. They make food twice as much before it even hits the pantry or the grocery shelves.
- [36:35]
Brian Mudd
Yeah, no, it's exactly right, Robert, and appreciate the call. He's found out very quickly that his ideas are not coming to fruition because people who actually have to put things in place say this isn't really viable. And so many of his grandiose ideas have been tabled for now and time and again he's having to make excuses for why he hasn't acted on some of the policies that he promised on the trail. By the way, isn't that Bogoda? It'll forever be bodegas. I'll forever associate with Jill Biden. Let's go to Gary. Flagstaff, Arizona. Gary, welcome to the show. Hey, Gary.

Yeah, this mandami needs to be taken out. What he did on the 4th of July with that speech just made me sick. All these politicians that are coming in, Muslims and communists and all we need to get rid of them, deport him or whatever. I mean, his wife not even staying for the 4th of July celebration and going to celebrate some Islamic celebration, that's just pure insanity. They're coming over here to destroy our country, not make it any better.
- [37:55]
Brian Mudd
Well, this is true. You're not going to be deporting Mamdani, an American citizen. But there is one thing that is important about what you said, and this goes into this version of the Democrat Party being the most dangerous yet. While the base of the Democrat Party is a faithless existence these days, the Judeo Christian values that this country is founded upon, which we're going to get into later in the show, they've out and out rejected. Right. But what they have allowed, you have Islam that is extremely intentional. And the takeover that's been taking place in Europe, the takeover that's been taking place in certain cities like Dearborn in the United States and now New York City, you have a very intentional Islamic long game that's been played. And there's nothing that is consistent with this country, Islam. And it's not to be something to be interpreted as bigoted. But you read the founding, you take a look at Islam, they don't work.

All the news of the day we worked through in the first hour. The a total arrest in the UFC terror plot to assassinate the president and as many conservatives as possible. This week's hearings for Tyler Robinson and the assassination of Charlie Kirk Mamdani official attempting to meet with an Iranian official at the same time that you have a new Iranian plot to assassinate the President of the United States. Never mind the fact that just on a good day, the UN Ambassador to Iran is an Islamic terrorist. I mean, details. Secretary of State Marco Rubio interdicting the illegal alien child rapist that was freed, that was pardoned by Tim Walls, thankfully getting him deported. The Graham Platner resignation letter that concludes with F ice free Palestine. This version of the Democrat Party, the most dangerous yet. Hey there, Brian Mudd in for the great one. It is always an honor and a pleasure to be here with you. Mark's back on Monday. In the meantime as we we take a look what's going on. And by the way you can always connect with me at Brian Mudd Radio Socially would love it. Love it. If you would check out the Brian Mud Joe podcast. Subscribe to it wherever you get your podcast. Stay connected that way. It was 15 days ago that I brought you. It was in the third hour of the show that day. This version of the Democrat Party is the most dangerous yet. And I think about it so frequently with the news flow because I've spoken a lot of truth in my 28 years of doing this. That is the plainest, most obvious truth I've probably ever spoken. And I don't just say things. There are two sides to stories and one side of facts. And so what I want to do, having walked through all of that in the first hour, I want to reiterate the facts that underline this version of the Democrat Party being the most dangerous yet, aside from the news of the day, reiterate a few of these points that I think need to remain front and center in one's mind. Something that you need to share with those who might be influenced around you that illustrate the point that this version of the Democrat Party is the most dangerous yet. You know, one of the most obvious ways for the average part, the defund the police movement. Right when they are, yeah, let's get rid of them. Well, that certainly makes society more dangerous. But it wasn't just that, of course. I mean, but it was that, you know, the total crimes and the locations that did try the defund the police thing while that was going on after George Floyd, total crime rates rose in those locations by 30%. Murders rose by 44%. That was a very clear illustration that this version of the Democratic Party had become the most dangerous yet. 30% more crime, 44% more murder. Who wouldn't want that? That's why the Democrat Party quietly backed away from the defund movement, at least as an overall movement that they will talk about in the light of day. But as I have shared with you, as my analysis has demonstrated, the illegal alien crisis in this country and what it brought about, the big lies that you were always told, that, oh, they're just warm and fluffy magic, a word, asylum seeking people, they're more honest and hardworking than you are as an American, less likely to commit crimes too. Those people are always full of crap. They're always lying to you. But how bad had it become by the onset of the Trump administration? 24% of all drug trafficking a result of illegal immigrants. 25% of all property crimes due to illegal immigrants. 28% of all fraud, among other things, illegal immigrants. In fact, there's just nothing that made the national news. But another one in South Florida just yesterday, Miami, there you had an insurance fraud operation that was being run, somebody who was getting the insurance information of people and then filing false claims, leaving them in a bind. And oh, look at this, another illegal alien. 28% of all fraud. And so just in those categories alone, you take a look at would you want 24% less drug trafficking? Okay, don't support Democrats in their policies. Don't let illegal aliens in and don't let them stay. You want to get rid of 25% of all property crime? Get rid of illegal aliens? Who wouldn't want to deport 25% of all crime? Do you want to deport 28% of all fraud in this country? Deport illegal aliens? And what do they want to do? They want to abolish ice. And with it, if you abolish ice, what would happen? Every illegal alien that ever would step foot in this country would forever remain in this country because no other law enforcement agency has the ability to detain into port but ICE and border patrol, that's it. And so if you eliminate that mechanism, they stay forever. Once you get in this country, even if you commit a crime, you know, your, your local law enforcement, they can't deport anybody. Your state can't lawfully deport anybody. So they stay forever. That's what abolish ICE means, illegal aliens forever. 24% more drug trafficking. 25% more property crime. 28% fraud. 25% percent more murders. 26% more rape. You want 26% more rate. 25% more murders. Vote for Democrats, keep illegal aliens here. You want, I don't know, quarter plus of all murders and rapes to go away? Deport illegal aliens. And as I've illustrated, illegal aliens had so abused this country that by the end of the Biden administration, crime rates among non citizens had risen by 914%. Boy, this version of the Democrat party is the most dangerous yet. 914% more likely. More greater than nine times more likely to commit a crime than you mat imagine that. But they're just warm and fluffy and, and trying to work hard and they're more honest and, and less likely to commit a crime than you. And I pointed out that Maine with The whole Graham Platner situation, that was just your average Maine Democrat. And there's nobody in this country on the right who has ever taken a look at Maine and gone, yeah, you know, in the grand scheme of radicals, you know those Mainers, man, But you have Graham Platner. That was the average Democrat in Maine's candidate of choice. Now it's because this version of the Democrat Party is the most dangerous yet. And the base continues to become more radical. And when I point out there's nobody that's more establishment than Chuck U. Schumer, Right. There's no more establishment Democrat than him. What did he say during the efforts to permanently shut down the Department of Homeland Security, defund Border Patrol and ice? What Schumer said during those debates, he said, you're here adding $140 billion to an agency. Two groups, Border Patrol and ICE, that nobody respects in this country. That nobody respects in this country. Border Patrol and ice. Your most establishment member of the Democrat Party in Congress is now. Abolish ice. Abolish Border Patrol. There is no moderate Democrat. This version of the Democrat Party is the most dangerous yet. And it wasn't complicated to see better results. When we did have the criminal illegal aliens Targeted during Trump's first year, what happened? Things got safer. First year of the Trump administration. Assaults, 10% lower. Robberies, 22% lower. Homicides, 21% lower. Property crime, 27% lower. Largest one year decline in crime in this country's history. Imagine that you target the people that are committing about a quarter of the crime. And right across the board, what we see, about a quarter of the crime is going away. But of course, it only happened because of Border Patrol and ice, the very entities that Democrats are trying to abolish, including the most established establishment Democrats in Congress. And so then you take a look at what this really gets down to. If you vote for Democrats, you are voting for more murders to take place. If you vote for Democrats, you're voting for open borders. If you're voting for Democrats, you're voting for more rapes to take place. Do you want more people to be raped? Vote for Democrats. You want more people to be murdered? Vote for Democrats. If you vote for Democrats, you're voting for more assaults, more robberies, more type of every criminal thing. This version of the Democrat Party is the most dangerous yet it is proven in so many different ways, from all the news of today to all these stats and things. How many victims are there? You know, the remarkable thing is we had millions more Americans who are victims of heinous crimes because of the Democrat Party, because of Joe Biden being in power and Democrats in Congress. It's a fact in year one of Trump, we had hundreds of thousands fewer victims than would have been just because he was there. It is stunning to me and it's alarming to me that so many people in this country have been radicalized in such a way to where just your average Democrat in Maine says, yeah, give me that, Graham Platner. But even the most establishment Chuck Schumer doesn't actually disagree with the guy in policy. He just doesn't frame it quite the same way. And I don't think that Schumer has a Nazi tattoo. I can neither confirm or nor deny, but I don't think that's the case. He is a self hating Jew type though that, that much is very true. So the bottom line is I think a lot of people had hoped that somewhere along the way there'd be some sense and sensibility within the Democrat Party, but it's not the case. 1% further to the left per year for each of the past 20 years. That's what research has shown. And there's no indication that's turning around. And here we are in a midterm election year where voters are positioning to vote the most dangerous major political party in history into a congressional majority if we're not careful. Right now, the polls suggest that probably be the case. So voters have to wake up before they vote for those who are woke. Because the impact of the policies coming out the Democrat party are fundamentally unsafe for this country, fundamentally unsafe for the family. The craziest thing is the very constituency that votes for these people, it makes them less safe and they support it. But again, when you embrace a false premise, anything built in that false premise is inherently false. This version of the Democrat Party, the most dangerous yet. I'm Brian Mudd in for the great one.

Rubio is focusing in on US Counterterrorism efforts here at home and around the globe. The State Department is focusing on what it is calling far left political terrorism. This carried out by groups that fall under that antifa umbrella. Officials tell us they have over the past year, quote, taken unprecedented steps to dismantle transnational far left and anarchist terrorism. They also say since the October 7 Hamas terror attack on Israel, these far left groups have increasingly converged with anti Semitic groups like Hamas, the Muslim Brotherhood and Iran backed actors. And thank you Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Thank you Trump administration for working to do these things. This administration makes you a heck of a lot more safe, including far safer. Hundreds of thousands fewer victims of crime than would have existed just in the first year plus of this administration. But you hear that kind of radicalism is being combated by the Trump administration. Okay, that's great. That's fox's Jillian Turner, by the way, on that report. But then you take a look at the candidates the Democrats are electing. You know the grand planner who just dropped out today that ended up winning the main primary. How much distance is there between these radical groups and then a Senate candidate who says f ice free Palestine. How is their distance there? What's the difference between antifa and f ice free Palestine? They say the same thing. Where is the distance over a Chuck Yu Schumer who says nobody respects ICE and border patrol. And here's the more important thing. What happens when these people come into power again? We are in a position where we must control what we can control. And what we can control is our vote and also those in the sphere around us. This version of the Democrat Party is the most dangerous yet this midterm election cycle is that important. What is it going to look like starting next January? Are we going to have a Congress that will support Trump continuing to try to bring about safety, or one that's going to try to knock him out of office through constant impeachments? We have to begin to win anybody who's persuadable in this country and not just for an election cycle, but so that people will not take a look at somebody who has a Nazi tattoo, has a history of abusing women, says f ice and free Palestine and goes, yeah, give me that guy. That's who I Want to represent me in the United States Senate in a state that is not even known for being a radical state. This is the state of the Democrat Party. They're dangerous. The establishment to the socialists. There isn't much distance. The AEOC to Chuck Schumer, there's not much distance. Mamdani, how is he altogether that much different than, say, Mark Kelly in Arizona? This is the important thing. There aren't moderates in the Democrat Party. The party is dangerous. The votes are consistent. They voted to defund Homeland Security. They voted to defund Border Patrol. And nice, literally, John Fetterman is the only one who speaks out differently these days. And even then, his votes too often go the other way. Coming up, the MOU isn't over. And Trump, he knows what to do. Brian Mudd in for Mark Levin.

Yeah, so the MOU, it isn't over. And Trump, he knows what to do. He knows what to do. Trust the process. You know, it's so funny. Brian Mudd here for Mark Levan and spent the first half of the show talking about this version of the Democrat Party being the most dangerous yet. A lot of nice notes on that, by the way. Appreciate it and take the information, share it. That's the one thing that I would like for you to do. But do you want to switch gears here, get into some of the Iranian stuff and what came out of NATO, the NATO conference and all that. So you go back a couple of days ago and of course all you ended up hearing is, oh, it's over. It was really funny, because the. When Trump made the comment, this particular
- [59:42]
Mark Love
comment to me, I think it's over.
- [59:46]
Brian Mudd
I was, I was about 20 minutes away from going on air, and you had the. My morning show starts at 5. And so it happened just before that. And immediately Trump says the MoU is over and it's, you know, basically war is on and people are freaking out in the financial markets and everything else. I just remember coming on and I said, it's not over. It's not over. Yeah, but he said stuff like this.
- [60:17]
Mark Love
I don't want to deal with them anymore. They're scum. You know what scum is? They're scum. They're sick people. They're led by sick people, and they're vicious, violent people. And if they had a nuclear weapon, they'd use it.
- [60:30]
Brian Mudd
By the way, one thing that you can think about, you know, it's just talking about this version of the Democrat Party is the most dangerous yet. Think about these, these clips from Trump. He could be talking about Iranian officials, or he could be talking about Democrat officials one more time.
- [60:47]
Mark Love
I don't want to deal with them anymore. They're scum. You know what scum is? They're scum. They're sick people. They're led by sick people, and they're vicious, violent people. And if they had a nuclear weapon, they'd use it.
- [61:00]
Brian Mudd
Yeah, I mean, we certainly know that they'll. They're threatening to go nuclear on the filibuster, the Supreme Court and all that. Right. It applies. It applies. And he also offered up. This, again, could be about Iranian officials, or it could be about the Democrat Party.
- [61:18]
Mark Love
These are evil, sick people, and we have to rid their cancer. Their cancer. And you know what you do? You got to cut out cancer early. And that's the way I feel.
- [61:28]
Brian Mudd
Okay, so again, yeah, could be about the Democrat Party, could be about Iranian officials. I report, you decide. So let me see about it not being over. You know, there's a not so insignificant factoid to consider. Following the news a couple days ago, Ed, NATO, when Trump said he didn't want to deal with him anymore, as far as he's concerned, it's over. Now, what are the specific specifics of that? Well, he was suggesting ceasefires. Over. And the MOU on a potential Iranian peace deal were over. Now, one of the things I've consistently told people to do is pay attention to the price of oil, because price is truth. Price is truth. You know, the average price for a barrel of oil during the month of May was when there was no resolution in sight with Iran, it was $102.40. You know, the average price for a barrel of oil was in early June when it looked unlikely that some kind of an agreement on a MOU would come together. It was $96 a barrel. You know what the price of barrel was the day before the signing of the mou, when it looked like maybe, just maybe like it, it was $88 a barrel. You know where oil peaked after Trump said, it's over 75. Okay, so when things were no end in sight, 102. And right before, when there was some hope, 88. At the absolute peak after saying it was over 75, what does that tell you? Where are we today? 71. A well below average price for a barrel of oil, by the way. I'll talk about that here in a moment. Again, so as I've been saying along right along, price is truth. And the truth of the Iranian conflict, as we've also discussed, is that, well, okay, we know they're, well, imaming Islamic terrorists. These are people who believe in the twelfth imam, and they believe that in order for the twelfth imam, you might call him the well imam, because there actually are some that believe that literally you've got this 12th imam that's been in the well for about 1200 years, just waiting for the world to be washed in blood. So this, this imam will be happy and come out and it'll be glorious. Well, a mom in kind of stuff at that point. This is the, the crux of the nuclear ambitions and why they will use a nuclear bomb because they believe they need to do this in order to wash the world in blood for the wellimal. So in other words, not exactly the sort of people we can trust. Kind of like Democrats. President Trump is not dumb. This just in. The guy's not dumb. None of this is stuff he hadn't considered. The biggest issue from the perspective of the average American is what it hasn't been preventing Iran from having a nuclear weapon. Right. The average American isn't going about their lives going, man, I'm really worried about Iran having a nuclear weapon. That has been President Trump's objective. Right? Make sure they don't have it, because they'll use it and they're close. The average American is going about, so what, what's the price of oil? Most importantly, its impact on the price of gas at the pump. Which, by the way, this is a whole other thing. And you should know this. We have seen scam artists, gas station operators clear across this country Again, and the industry as a whole should be ashamed of itself. You know, for much of my career, I defended the industry. Super low margins on gas. Most of the money is made at convenience stores. We have seen since the onset of the Iran war, the worst behavior I have seen in my career with gas stations where as soon as the news hit in Iran, they jacked up the price of gas, even though what they had paid for the gas, that was the there at that time. And for the first week and a half of the Iran war was pre war pricing. They decided to go ahead and jack it up and just screw you on it. And what we've seen this week, where prices have been rising, the only thing that happened with the barrel of oil and the price of the refined gasoline that they've been purchasing and selling to you is that it's been plummeting in price plummeting because you have a lag time, a minimum two weeks from the time they buy something till it gets to you. And again, the peak intraday was only 75 bucks, which is a cheap price for, for gas. $75 itself equates to an average price in this country at about $3.20 per gallon. You're getting ripped off. And a week ago today, actually, the Trump administration, through the doj, they issued a directive to every single state attorneys general to investigate within their own states, price gouging. And there is a formal investigation from the federal level with the DOJ and the Federal Trade Commission underway. And they are calling on you to report. You can report to the ftc, you can report to your state, your state's attorney general as well. If you see practices that are non competitive, where you have all these gas stations jacking up prices and it makes no sense. Every gas station jacked up prices this week. It made no sense. They took advantage of you. It's scumbag behavior. Shame on all of you. And I encourage you to do what the DOJ has called on you to do and report these people. But with that said, When you take a look at the price of oil, as long as that stays down, that's really only all that matters here. If we can keep Iran from having a nuclear weapon, right? As long as there's oil flowing through the Strait of Hormuz, as long as gas is affordable for you. I mean, that's a massive win if Iran's nuclear program has gone the way of the ayatollah and most of the first three tiers of Iranian mullahs. And that is essentially what President Trump had To say, following his. What would you call it? You might call it a, a love fest at, at NATO.
- [68:05]
Caller/Listener
Right.

Brian Mudd
Trump had this design, right?

Mark Love
If there's one word that comes out of today, it's unification. I've never seen anything like it. Every one of those countries, they love us. They love each other.
- [68:17]
Brian Mudd
Yeah. So much love. The only thing I was missing was Barney. So here's the thing about understanding Trump in all this life complicated Trump isn't. Have you read the book, you know, Art of the Deal came out in 87. And no matter how many times I've pointed to it, I've told people to read it if they want to understand Trump, it remains the case that very few people who report for GSS news, or even very few people who analyze news have read the book. So let's take this from the top once again. President Trump has to do what here with Iran? He has to find an exit plan, right? Unless the United States is to be a permanent occupying presence in Iran. Because you people say, we just got to keep bombing. You got to keep, just go after him. Go after him. And then eventually we'll, we'll put somebody in there who we want. No, we won't. If there is any kind of military left in Iran, any kind, they will never support somebody we put in power. They will never go along with the government leadership that we install. Never. That means the only way that could happen is if we are a permanent occupying force. We would have to be there securing that government. Not going to happen, right? Not going to happen. So the idea we're just forever going to be involved and no, we're not. That is not an option. Does not exist. So given that reality, this is messy, right? There's going to be a terrorist in charge of Iran. That will happen. It's just a matter of will it be a terrorist that'll be a bit transactional, or is it going to be a well moming terrorist that's going to say no or until the very end? So given that reality, what's the best deal for the United States? Is it an outcome that would lead to oil and gas prices shooting back to previous highs?

We're.

Brian Mudd
Or is it one that keeps oil flowing through the Strait of Hormuz, which, by the way, it's never stopped doing oil flow through two days ago, it flowed through yesterday, it flew. It's been going through today, has not stopped. It allows for us to put significant military pressure on Iran when we need to. What he's done by saying the ceasefire is off the TABLE. But you know what hasn't happened? He hasn't formally withdrawn from the memorandum of understanding. And in fact, what did he say? He said that they're still talking, that the diplomatic channel is still open, the MOU is still there, ceasefire gone. So we pop them anytime we want to if they get out of line. Otherwise we're talking oil. It's still flowing. The price is 71 bucks a barrel is over $20 cheaper than it typically is on this date when adjusted for inflation. Oh, by the way, so you're familiar with the phrase being beaten into submission. That's basically what we see. You know, the irgc, anytime they beat them into submission, continue to take out them, continue to take out military facilities. It's messy. But doing that until somebody in leadership caves just might be the best way. Maybe we get in there and there are some ops that end up taking out some additional leaders too. We'll see. That's a possibility. But here's what did happen. Sanctions were reimposed on Iranian oil. It means that Iran cannot sell oil at market rates to legitimate trade partners. What does that mean? It means they have to go back to selling their oil exclusively at half price to China. But the oil is still flowing. So that's part of the reason the Iranian oil being back in the market, that prices are down the way they are. So they the oil is still flowing, it's still getting out there, keeps the price down. But Iran gets half of what they were getting for it. And that will wind down on July 17, a week from today, unless something changes between now and then. That's the most recent carrot that Trump has dropped out there. Here's what hasn't happened. The reimposing of a blockade. It's all part of keeping the price of gas down. I'll tie the rest of this together next. I'm Brian Mudd in for the great one.

I'm not sure I want to make a deal with them. We can play games, but I'm not sure I want to make a deal. I just finished the job.
- [74:06]
Brian Mudd
Yeah, and then you had reports of mixed messaging and everything else. Like Trump knows what he's doing. He does. The ships are still shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. It's messy over there because we're not going to be a permanent occupying force. We're not going to have somebody in leadership. We want, we, we don't want Iran to have a nuclear weapon. Intelligence has shown to Trump to his level of satisfaction that we've done what we've needed to do. Now it's about exit strategy while keeping the train on the tracks. Here's the deal. Actions always speak louder than words. If Iran wants to sell its oil for less than it could get at market rates, it's yeah, China will be happy, but Iran still won't have all the money they otherwise would. And with ships still going through the straight, we saw what happened with oil only traded higher by $5 at the peak real time it's at $71 a barrel. It's only $3 away from its low in this cycle and pre Iran war levels. And what is the average price for WTI crude each of the past five years? Just each of the five years non inflation adjusted. What's it been? 76 bucks. By the way, when you adjust for inflation over the past five years, it's in the upper $80 per barrel range on average. We're well below that with all this going on. So it means that with all the talk about the end of the MOU and back to bombing Iran and the wells and all this stuff. No, it's not like that at all. You have cheaper than usual oil price is truth, perspective is key. Understanding the art of the deal, that dynamics in play. That is all important when it pertains to Iran too. And nothing has meaningfully changed over the past couple of days except that Iran has fewer IRGC skinnies and military facilities. They're getting paid about half the price for oil unless they come back to the table in a meaningful way before July 17th. Which if you're following along, might be the most likely thing that Iran ends up doing here. And what's happened is precisely why the MOU was drawn up with rewards that were issued only based upon Iran keeping their end of the bargain and hitting various milestones. This, by the way, is why we never did unfreeze any of Iran's bank accounts. So as much as they're liars and terrorists and all of those things, they still have to have money to pay for things. And Trump knows this too. All right, real quick, let's go to Larry and Houston. Larry, welcome to the show.
- [76:27]
Caller/Listener
Yeah, Mr. Mudd, I would like to disagree with your point about people calling in to report price gouging on gas. And here's, here's why. That's two, two elements that are Democrat. A, it's, it's, it's like establishing a snitch line. And B, it's what Democrats do. They control prices.
- [76:48]
Brian Mudd
So let me ask you, is collusion cool? Do you like collusion?
- [76:52]
Caller/Listener
Collusion?
- [76:53]
Brian Mudd
Yeah.
- [76:54]
Caller/Listener
No, no, I don't like collusion.
- [76:55]
Brian Mudd
Oh, okay. Then you should report them because guess what, it's collusion. None of the pricing gas stations have jacked up the price this week. The gas stations that jacked up the price at the beginning of the Iran war, they colluded as an industry. It's illegal. That's why the Trump administration, through the Department of Justice said report them. It's anti competitive. It is a federal crime what these people are doing. So if you don't like collusion, report them. Stop getting screwed and say that's what Democrats do. Yeah, Democrats will screw you. It's a real shame that the average gas station down the street has now gotten into practice of doing that too. They didn't used to. They shouldn't. It's anti American. So report them. Be right back.

Yeah, sure enough. Hey there, Brian Mudd with you as we roll into the third hour. You can connect with me at Brian Mudd Radio socially. Would love for you to locate the Brian Mud show podcast if you have not already. Go ahead and subscribe to it. Gonna switch gears here for the third hour and it's a, it's a bit of a transition given the, the commentary in the Democrat party, this version being the most dangerous yet and what we were just talking about with Iran and everything. I did a lot of work around Independence Day, did a lot of work around freedom. 250America, 250. And I received the most positive feedback I probably have in my career with the various different things I was involved with, with what I am getting ready to share with you. And so it's like, you know, I want to bring it to you. I want this audience to, to hear what I feel is actually the key to the first 250 and what has to happen for the next 250. And so it starts with divine providence. Have you ever paused to think about why it is that we're here? And the odds are really high you have. You know, studies show that over two thirds of us, 68% of adults, have meaningfully questioned the meaning of life by what we would consider to be midlife. And usually you got a catalyst behind that. You know, job loss, financial issues, those tend to be among the most common. Nearly a quarter of adults seriously question their place in the world during those times of negative adversity. Now, just behind financial woes, we tend to question why we're here when we lose a loved one. Third most common reason, loss of a serious relationship, breakup or divorce. Other questions, they are commonly raised due to Health related problems we might face. Those are four of the top five reasons as to why it is that the average American questions why they're here by the time they're 40ish. But the top reason people question everything comes down to what they cite as a lack of purpose or calling. But I'm here to tell you that as an American, your purpose is crystal clear. As I'm inclined to say you have two sides to stories, one side to facts. And the fact of the matter is that it's nothing short of divine providence that we're here. And yes, it will drive atheists crazy, as it should. By the way, I'm quick to point out to any atheist that they arguably have more faith in their self invented belief system of nothing than most creationists do. The fact of the matter is every person by virtue of what they believe, has faith. Everybody has faith. The question is just what do we put it in? Atheists choose to put it in nothing. Atheists have the fewest answers of all, yet they tend to think they have the most. Can't tell you how many times in my career I've had somebody tell me you're too smart to be a believer in God, say you're not as smart as you think you are. Every believer in God recognizes a creator which at least holds the potential to explain why the heck it is that we're here. You know, an atheist can't offer any viable explanation for how any of this began. That in and of itself is evidence that there is something more, that there never is an explanation without there being something that can't be explained. And that is an extreme amount of faith in nothing. And that takes us to the founding of our country. The facts are clear. The United States of America was not some accident of history. It was not the result of just some clever, clever work on the battlefield by some generals starting with Washington or some lucky breaks. The country was founded with divine providence. It's right there in the Declaration of Independence. As the President mentioned, on Independence Day
- [84:31]
Mark Love
in this country we can achieve the wildest and most impossible dreams.
- [84:37]
Brian Mudd
We certainly can. Why? Because as he, he stated from the Declaration of Independence, as our Declaration of
- [84:48]
Mark Love
Independence tells us, we are all made in the image of one almighty God.
- [84:57]
Brian Mudd
That's it. We were a country founded on a God given rather than government given system of rights. God given rather than government given rights. Something that was first of its kind. Something that still is. And then the closing words of the Declaration. The Founders started with this. A firm reliance on the protection of divine providence. That we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, our sacred honor. They start with Creator, they end with divine Providence. These were men deeply influenced by Judeo Christian principles who understood that they were stepping into the humanly impossible. A ragtag group of farmers, merchants, lawyers taking on the British crown. I mean, it's a joke. Taking on the world superpower. How improbable was it? You know, I'm the facts guy. Two sides of stories, one side of facts. So one of the things that's kind of interesting these days, through the use of AI, you can calculate some of these things, like go, let's go back in time. Let's go back to July 4, 1776. Let's, let's do probabilities using three different AIs. I asked a series of questions, calculating the probability. First, what do you think the probability would be and just first of fighting off the British to get independence. Just to get to the point of we have independence in this country. Well, based on the AI program of choice, the results range from 10% at the low end to 20% on the high end. Pretty low. Highly unlikely, but that leaves some room for skeptics to suggest that the creation of the country wasn't due to divine intervention. Okay, well then consider this. What do you think the odds were on July 4th of 1776 that Americans would win the Revolutionary War and become the world's leading superpower within 170 years? What do you think? Based on the AI services range from quoting essentially 0 to 0.001%. Essentially 0 to 0.001%. Now that is a statistically solid case for divine intervention. Why would God favor the United States to become the world's leading superpower? Through world leading technological accomplishments and advances, the average standard of living around the world increased exponentially. You know, the average standard of living around the world today is about 20 times what it was then. It's so much greater on a relative basis, we can't even begin to understand it. With increased wealth came increased philanthropy during the 19th and 20th centuries. The United States, the world's largest source for missionaries, Bible translations, theological education, humanitarian relief, hospital construction and orphanages. And of course the United States, also responsible for a minor detail, winning World War II. And so on that note, consider this. Let's say the United States had never been. What would the outcome of humanity have been? Well, Israel never would have been re established. Right? That only happened because we won World War II and we redesignated Israel as a Jewish state where they could be safe after everything that happened during the Holocaust. So Israel doesn't exist and at a minimum probability suggests that at least half of the Jewish population today would not exist. No Israel, at least half of the Jewish population wouldn't exist. How about the impact on Christianity? Without the United States, it's likely that there would be at least 300 million fewer Christians today and counting. And that's assuming a Hitler styled victory wouldn't have just led to essentially the eradication of all religious theology, which very much would have been on the table. Right. And so this leads me back to the place where I started. While you may question why it is that you're here, we all tend to question things. God never has. We happen to be blessed with the opportunity to live free in the greatest country in human history. And it's because of our country's founding principles based on God's law, not man's. 250 years later, this country the greatest example of divine providence that's ever existed. Be right back.

We have thrived and flourished because our founders were great. Our cause was just, our people are brave, our culture is exceptional and our destiny is written by God.

Brian Mudd
You know that was a really late speech because the weather delay and all the stuff going on last Saturday. But if you did not catch the President's speech, it is a must. It was maybe his most inspired speech to date. It was right on point with everything that this country is about. And yes, GSS News destroyed it as they're inclined to do this country. The key the first 250 Divine Providence and our role in all this is critical as we look towards the next 250. I mentioned the number one difference in our country and everything else. We were a country founded on God given rights, not government given rights. The only country that exists like that still to this day statistically through the Use of AI can essentially demonstrate divine providence by the unlikelihood that we would be as a country where we have arrived. And I mentioned that your role and mine is to protect it and to preserve it for future generations. Well what exactly does that mean? Well among other things it means rejecting the Democrat party and its candidates. I started this show talking about this version of the Democrat Party being the most dangerous yet. It is an amoral and unredeemable party in its current construction. You must reject the Democrat Party and its candidates which has become the tolerated home for socialism, for communism, for anti Semitism, for the absence of any kind of morality. It means taking a stand for God and for our Judeo Christian beliefs as opposed to caving to political correctness which is what we've been conditioned to do. Everything about our society has conditioned us not to do what it is that God calls on us to do, which is to spread the word and bring people to. That means a willingness to stand up for what it is that you believe. Here's something else for you on the statistical side. The average length of a superpower and dynasty and human history only 200 years. The odds were nearly non existent that our country could have possibly ever made it to this point as the world's leading superpower, having celebrated 250 years. And if we're to continue to defy the odds, the key is simple. Follow God, be willing to fight for our God given rights. Do not play the game that you have been conditioned to play. And it's interesting because if you take a look at the Islamists, they're not afraid, are they? But they aren't afraid to throw it out there and to try to take it. Why, why don't we do what we need to do? It's about time we did. It's what this country is founded on. It's how we got here in the first place. By the way, Mr. Carl Screener had another way to illustrate the point about our divine providence here. Pointed out that here you had England, right, the world's leading superpower at the time that we knocked them off. And he mentioned that if the UK were a state, per capita, GDP per capita, it ranked 51st. We got some pretty jacked up states when you think about, when you think about England being worse per capita than even our worst state, that tells you something, right? So yeah, we've been given something that we must protect and that's going to take me to the key to our country's next 250 years. That's the key to how we got here it was interesting is after all the festivities last Saturday, I woke up with the feeling on Sunday it was weird. It was the kind of thing that typically only would would come across around the holidays and not Independence Day, but you know, like coming off of New Year's, that type of deal. So I'm gonna share it with you and tie all this together. The first 250 with the next 250 in your role. Next, I'm Brian Mudd in for Mark Living.

Brian Mudd
Yeah, no doubt. And talked about the key to our country's first 250. Talk about the key to our country's next 250. First, a programming note. Life Liberty Live in tomorrow. You know, Mark's back on Monday, so you can look forward to. That's one reason to look forward to Monday. Right there you get Mark back. But here's something that you can enjoy before we get there. You should always set your DVR for Life Liberty Live in Fox News channel tomorrow, Saturday, 8 Eastern. His guest, New York rep Michael Lawler and Roger Zakhai tune in Life Liberty Live in eight tomorrow. And again, always hit it on your DVR just in case you don't catch it live. Some cases might want to go back and watch it again. All right, so let's talk about the key to our country's next 250. I mentioned I woke up on on Sunday after everything went on the 4th and just kind of had this weird feeling that I really only had felt like coming out of holiday season. You know how you feel often coming out of the holidays. It's the whole reason you even get into like the whole New Year's resolution mode. It's like, all right, we're out of the holidays. Let's, let's get after it again. Let's make some things happen. It was kind of that deal, slightly different for me, a renewed sense of purpose. I definitely had a desire to go make things happen that would move the needle. And what I realized Sunday was that so much time, energy, emotion and effort had been wrapped around celebrating our country's 250th birthday. That was kind of like once the festivities completed, it was time to move on and to really focus on what needs to happen to keep this thing going. Yeah, I mentioned that statistically this country wasn't supposed to happen. And statistically superpowers don't last as long as we already have. We defy the odds around every turn. And that's because the country was literally in the declaration, it was founded on divine providence. And it's the difference between our country and every other country. The God given as opposed to government given rights. It's the realization that half the world's Jews wouldn't be alive today if not for us. Israel wouldn't be a country. We'd have a minimum of 300 fewer Christians and counting the statistical likelihood of essentially zero that any of this would have been. And so the key to our country's success over the next 250. Getting back to basics. Getting back to basics and getting right with God. Here we are in the greatest country the world has ever seen, the highest quality of life the world has ever experienced. All because our country was founded on God given freedom with divine providence. And what's the most common reaction by us? We take it all for granted every day. We don't even think about it. Most people don't even realize it. And yeah, you know, it's often the case that during the holiday season and by pause, maybe reflect for a minute or two on the meaningful people in our lives. Take time to appreciate what really matters. The most observant types will break out, you know, for Jewish folks, the menorah, for us Christians beyond the Christmas tree. Because even I think even the heathens of the world will break out the Christmas tree. But you might break out like the keep Christ in Christmas bumper sticker. But that might be the extent of her. For a lot of people, much like New Year's resolutions that almost never stick, those things tend to be fleeting, right? They actually take any time to focus on stuff that really matters. You get back to the day to day lives kick in. Stuff gets busy, you get distracted. This world is full of distractions. Not many of them are good not many of them are actually pointed in the direction for what we're actually called on to do. And I say this as someone with plenty of experience in doing just that thing. You know, the, the top issue in our society today, it's not Iran, it's not even China or Russia. It's not the, it's hard to say this because it definitely is and omnipresent threat in this country. Not even the rise of socialism, communism, Marxism within the Democrat Party in this country. Our country's history shows that when we're focused on the right things, we can overcome all of those things. How many times have we been faced with horrible things? I mean, take a look at the Civil War, take a look at World War II and so many points along the way we dealt with a lot worse. When we're focused on the right things, we overcome those things. God would have been on the side of the Union taking out slavery. God certainly on the side of taking out Hitler in World War II. So our country's biggest issue is risking losing our way. If you've ever read the Bible, you probably know this. For thousands of years, wasn't this story just a slightly different version of a similar thing? Like for example, when the Jewish people and anointed leaders would do what was right in the eyes of the Lord, they would be rewarded with strength, with comfort, with prosperity. And when the Jewish people anointed leaders would do what was wrong in the eyes of the Lord, what would happen? It would all be taken away in really horrible ways. And God would do this because it was during times of tragedy that people would go, oh yeah, maybe we should pay attention to what God wanted us to do again, the God that we ignored when we were doing all these paganistic things. So in having this conversation with people from time to time, a common reaction is this. Why in the world wouldn't they just do what God called on them to do? I mean, at a certain point it's so repetitive. Isn't it obvious that, hey, you know what? If you do what God says you should do, things are a lot better for society. Like for example, you get the United States of America and the highest quality of life the world has ever seen. That would be an example. And what do you get when you do all the wrong things? Take a look at societies that are the most depraved from a point of Judeo Christian values. Take a look at societies that do the opposite of what those values say to do. What do they look like? Are any of them places you want to be or does that look like something kind of like out of the worst examples of the Bible, it's not a coincidence. You know, people will commonly refer to aha moments, you know, moments when things suddenly click and somewhere along the way when people are like, hey, why wouldn't some of these people, why would the Jews way back when just, you know, be observant, that worked a lot better for them. You can see what's going to happen. You read the Bible, anticipate what's going to go well and what won't based upon if the leaders did what they were supposed or not and the people did what they were supposed to or not. And you think why would people defy God time and again? Just knowing the consequences, knowing history. And then you take a step back and you realize, you know what? How are we any different? Almost all of us are so oblivious in our day to day about living the way that we're called on to do. And for all of life's complexities, that's the key. Getting back to basics. Life is complicated. This isn't. In 1776 we founded a country on Judeo Christian values evoking divine providence to make the seemingly impossible real. Through our country's rise, we created a place for the establishment of hundreds of millions of Christians who would never have existed. Through the maximum adversity In World War II, we defeated evil in its purest form, led to the re establishment of Israel through the victory. And so while extremely flawed at times, our country spent most of its first 250 years doing God's work, actually doing God's work with a lot of flawed folks. The result in modern times is no different than the stories that played way back when. And this takes us to the final point on the key to the next 250. What is it that God has called on you to do? You know something that's clear in the New Testament is that A our primary purpose in life is to live Christ centered lives and B to spread the good news that Jesus Christ died for our sins to bring people to him. And the Bible is also clear that if you're doing an effective job, it's going to get uncomfortable. You know, I mentioned that as of now at least 300 million Christians can be attributed to the rise of the United States as a country, the world's leading superpower. Over the past not quite 2000 years, how many Christian martyrs do you think there have been? You have any idea how many Christian martyrs? How many people have actually died for their faith? The lowest estimates sit at 70 million. Most common estimates set at about 100 million people. So back to where I started. You know, you're probably starting to move the needle at the point where the conversations become uncomfortable, at the point where you receive pushback. And that would be my challenge for you to consider. This country for most of its history was not a politically correct country. It wasn't. Our declaration started by saying rights from our creator. And we're doing this country. We're founding this thing on divine providence. These are God given freedoms, not government. There's nothing politically correct about that. God is this country's founding principle and something that Trump was so good about articulating last Saturday. God is on our money. God is within our pledge of allegiance. Where is God within our schools, though? Where is God within our governments? You know, these days political correctness has removed the foundational principles of this country, the Judeo Christian values from being a daily focus of our lives. God doesn't do political correctness. You know what does? Political correctness, the antithesis. So the number one key to our country's next 250 years, refocus on how and why this miracle of a country got here. Every one of us plays a role in this. Embrace it. May God bless you and this country.

So Remember Life Liberty Le Tomorrow, 8 o', clock, fox News Channel. Of course, Rep. Michael Roger Zakhon. That'll be Mark's guest. Mark back on Monday. Something else that was cool in the news today. Figured it'd be kind of fun to end like that. You ever wanted to be an astronaut? But you're like, not really. Like, the whole idea is amazing. But then like, I don't know if I actually want to go in space. And certainly like if there were a mission to Mars, you might think this is like the coolest thing ever. I'm not really sure I want to make that trip. This might be like the perfect opportunity for you. So here's the deal. NASA has announced that they want four volunteers for a year long mission to the moon and to Mars. It'll be simulated. It'll be simulated. So they want four volunteers for a simulated mission to moon. To the moon and to Mars. By the way, the program is going to start they believe in August of next year. They said no earlier than August of 27. This is Dr. Alexandria Whitmire who's the element scientist with the Moon and Stars exploration program talking about the requirements. We are seeking astronaut like individuals. So we're looking for men and women across the US who are between the ages of 30 and 55 and who have, you know, similar to astronauts, STEM backgrounds and also military experience can qualify as well. Graham Platner, not eligible. No tool bags like so yeah, there you go. Astronaut like. You just need to be astronaut like between 30 to 55 and simulated moon and Mars missions, kind of like the best of both worlds. You got to do a NASA mission for a year and you don't actually have to go on the mission. All the rest that goes along with. Sounds kind of cool. Sounds like a fun go between. Oh, geez. All right. Well it has been, it's been quite the week. Quite the emotional thing. America 250 last weekend. That's so much going on in the news, all the heavy stuff today. You know, telling you at the onset about this version of the Democrat party being the most dangerous yet. Take that, share it with people. Don't forget it. Iran, it's not over the mou. It's messy. But Trump knows what to do. We're never going to be a permanent occupying force, but we're also never going to have leadership over there. That is our hand chosen leadership. We're always going to have problems. So he'll figure out the off ramp here. And remember the key to the first 250 is the key to our next 250 years. The key is God and us appreciating our place with God. Us doing what God calls on us to do. We do those things, it'll get uncomfortable at times. Our country will be a lot better off for it. Our country might still be around for it in the next 250 years and most importantly be doing God's work. There's nothing better that you could be doing. You know, it's been an honor and a pleasure. It always is. I hope you have a wonderful weekend. Mark's back Monday. Till next time. Brian Mudd in for Mark Levin, Finance lead. Just opened the credit card statement. A charge she can't trace.
