Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Balancing News and Faithful Thinking

(03:14–10:43)

• Lance opens with reflections on how Christians should engage with news, referencing Philippians’ exhortation to think on what is true and noble despite a troubled news cycle.
• Recalls Chuck Missler's advice: “you need to have a newspaper in one hand and the Bible in the other” to discern truth amidst biased narratives.
• Announces a renewed commitment:

  "I'm committing to you... I'm going to practice what I preach... Bible on one hand, news on the other. Boom." (33:53)

• Introduces the idea of the "signet ring anointing," where Christians make an imprint for God in the world by prayer, prophecy, and prevailing communication.

2. The Impact of Charlie Kirk’s Assassination

(10:44–15:36)

• Lance connects Kirk’s death to a period of fragmentation and betrayal in the conservative movement, referencing Acts 20:29:

  "I know that after my departing, grievous wolves are going to enter in among you, not sparing the flock." (13:30)

• Describes Kirk as a rare, unifying apostolic leader fostering unity and action among young conservatives, especially on campuses.
• Predicts infighting and division among conservative commentators and leaders, specifically naming Candace Owens, Nick Fuentes, Tucker Carlson, Steve Bannon, Ben Shapiro, and Mark Levin.
• Critiques their Christian maturity and spiritual discernment, particularly targeting Candace Owens for sowing confusion and embracing conspiracy.

3. Wealth, Precious Metals, and Economic Reality

Interview with Philip from Birch Gold
(19:53–28:34)

• The Case for Silver:
  • Silver viewed as accessible for average investors; growing industrial demand (solar, electric, AI), shrinking supplies, and favorable prices.
• Liquidity of Precious Metals:
  • Lance asks about accessing funds. Philip reassures:

    "The ability to sell is very, very important... really, really simple... We can buy the metals back from them. We charge no fees or commissions to do it." (22:08)

• Financial Market Risks:
  • Discusses warnings by Jeff Gundlach and Ray Dalio:

    "The economy today is amongst the least healthy he's seen in his entire career." (Gundlach via Philip, 23:59) "Price signals can lie. Big numbers on a screen aren't necessarily the same thing as real wealth." (Philip, 24:30)

  • Wallnau and Philip explore the risks of confusing financial assets with actual purchasing power, especially in overvalued markets.
• Cryptocurrency Market Crash:

  "We've lost about $1.2 trillion in value over the last five weeks… That is not a price drop, Lance. It is a forced deleveraging event." (Philip, 25:58)

  • Crypto collapse is described as a warning sign (the "canary in the coal mine") for broader market instability.

4. Psychological Bubbles and True Wealth

(27:02–28:34)

• Dalio’s metaphor for market value:

  "If the US Mint stopped making pennies, and I've got a roll of pennies... I sell you one for $10, does that mean the other 49 are now worth $490? I don't think so..." (Philip, 27:25)

• Warns against mistaking inflated valuations for actual wealth; identifies bubbles "all over the place" in the economy.

5. Thanksgiving: The Real Story

Rush Limbaugh Segment & Lance Commentary
(33:36–64:49)

• Lance frames the Thanksgiving narrative as a critical counter to “progressive propaganda.”
• Rush Limbaugh’s Retelling:
  • Pilgrims fled religious persecution, formed self-governing community based on biblical principles.
  • Early communal/socialist system failed–led to near starvation.
  • Adoption of private property and free enterprise led to prosperity:

    "Bradford assigned a plot of land to each family... thus turning loose the power of the marketplace... [socialism] didn't work. They nearly starved. It never has worked." (Rush Limbaugh, 59:48)

  • Success attributed to capitalism and scripture, not just Native American help.
  • The lesson: American abundance is rooted in individual enterprise and biblical values, not socialized structures.

6. Conservative Movement Fragmentation & Marjorie Taylor Greene

(43:36–50:07)

• Discusses the fallout as Trump withdraws support from Marjorie Taylor Greene, reading Trump’s (fictional) vitriolic post:

  "All I see is wacky Marjorie do is complain, complain, complain... unless, of course, she had my endorsement, which she wasn't about to get..." (Lance quoting Trump, 42:42)

• Analyzes Greene’s motives, speculating she's using publicity for personal gain, and cautions about "punching up" at leadership:

  "Whatever strength you have, if you overextend it, it becomes weakness... If you ever punch a gorilla or a lion... you're not punching parallel; you're punching up. Never punch up." (Lance, 51:44)

• Draws parallels between Greene’s trajectory and other divisive figures (e.g., Candace Owens).

7. Faithful Engagement with News and Prayer

(33:36–36:44)

• On facing the negativity of the news cycle:

  "My job is to put a chalk mark around the news to show you where the actual facts are and separate them from the CIA and the QAnon conspiracy interpretations..." (Lance, 33:36)

  • Describes a new model for the show: Bible in one hand, news in the other, guided by prayer.
  • Encourages audience to become a "praying audience"—foreseeing judgment for those unprepared spiritually.

Notable Quotes and Memorable Moments

• Lance Wallnau:

  "Chuck Missler said it once... you need to have a newspaper in one hand and the Bible in the other." (04:15)

• On Charlie Kirk and the Movement:

  "Charlie Kirk was, if you like it or not... a 31 year old young apostolic leader... forging together the finances, the operational capacity, the articulation of arguments…" (11:02)

• On Candace Owens (critical tone):

  "She talks like, like, like. Like a deluded fanatic. And if you're listening to her every day, you got a problem." (14:49)

• Philip, on Gold & Silver:

  "Gold is a monetary metal. It's a dollar hedge, it's a wealth preserver... Silver is a little bit different. It's a safe haven asset, but also has industrial uses..." (20:07)

• On Cryptocurrency’s Crash:

  "We've lost about $1.2 trillion in value over the last five weeks… That is not a price drop, Lance. It is a forced deleveraging event." (25:58)

• Rush Limbaugh on Thanksgiving:

  "The real story of Thanksgiving is William Bradford giving thanks to God for the guidance and the inspiration to set up a thriving colony that socialism caused near starvation. The bounty was shared with the Indians... but it wasn’t the Indians who saved the day. It was capitalism and scripture which saved the day." (Rush Limbaugh, 64:13)

• Lance Wallnau (On discussing news going forward):

  "You have to have the Bible in one hand and the newspaper in the other and then the discerning of spirits right there in the middle, like a plumb line to tell you what reality is. That's my new commitment for the new year... I'm starting it right now." (33:53)

[Lance]

All right, ladies and gentlemen, we are back back in the studio. You can tell by the autumn flowers festooned across my desk along with my sharks and my hippos and my Donald Trump train whistles, that we're here for serious business. Today. We're going to cover some news. And you know something? I'm not singing the blues today. Oh, I was. I was yesterday and I didn't broadcast yesterday. I just didn't. You know, I want to always remember the Bible says we're supposed to be, you know, what sort of things are true, noble, good, think on these things from Philippians. You know, I'm thinking, how in the world can you do news and think on these things which are, which are, you know, true and noble, etc. And then I think, well, I just won't cover the current events of life. I'll just teach the Bible. But you know what, Let me be honest with you. Chuck Missler said it once and he said it, and I'm not going to ever let it out of my brain. He said, in today's Christian world, the thing that we most desperately need is to be able to have a newspaper in one hand and the Bible in the other. Because the news is telling us events that are, that are impregnated with manipulative narratives and misleading directions based on the bias of the origin of the story. And yet it's news and it's describing an event. But with the word of God on the other hand, we can have God's direction, God's discerning and know the times we live in. How can you be a watchman in prayer? Who is watching if you're not looking at what's happening? I can't escape the news cycle. Had a meeting yesterday with a team and some said, and I don't know anymore. I mean, I just don't know. You know, maybe you just ought to teach the Bible. You get more people like it more, you get more views when you, when you just do the, you know, the Bible. I don't know if that's true. If I do trending topics and I rant at midnight for some reason, that gets Views. But I mean, you know, you evaluate these things as you're turning 70, as I will be in this next year, you start thinking, well, heck, I can remember my dad retired at 65. Hard to believe. I can't imagine retiring. What the heck would I do? I don't know if I drive Annabelle crazy, she's not that kind of woman, but I think I would go a little nutty. So I'm going to keep doing this because this is what I'm called to do. But I'm going to do it differently. And I'll tell you the difference right now. I'm committing to you. It's kind of like when you, when you're going to go on a diet, you tell people when you got to quit smoking or something, you tell people so you. They hold you accountable. Like, you know, hey, how you doing with the diet there, Lance? So here's the deal, Lucille. I've decided that I'm going to practice what I preach. There's a novelty for a Christian, and I keep talking about the signet ring anointing. You know what I've noticed? I'll say something and it's a thought that I really believe in. Philippians, the Bible says that God is in you at work both to will and to do his good pleasure. You all ought to believe that, that you walk with God close enough, get filled enough with the word of God, be mature enough in your spiritual life so that God could be at work in you to drop the desire in your heart and put the grace in you, to pursue and put the thought in your head or put the word in your mouth. Well, that's what I'm believing. And the signet ring anointing that I talk about, just described in the book of Hagai, rather interesting anointing. It's the supernatural ability of God to fix an impression upon the minds of others or upon a situation in such a way that the will of God becomes indelibly imprinted into the events of earth and the. And the authorization of the prayer. In other words, it's praying with the authority of prevailing, it's prophesying with the authority of prevailing, it's preaching with the authority of prevailing. And by prevail, I mean that the idea goes into the soft wax of time or the human heart or the mind of someone else and leaves an imprint that is divinely originated so that through you God is at work to plant ideas, thoughts and the will of God in the earth. That's what a Christian really ought to be doing. A sower sows, right. We should be planting God's things all over the place. Anyway, how does that relate to today? Because I'm going to tell you something. Ever since brother Charlie Kirk was assassinated, I'm sorry to say, once we got past the memorial service which sent shivers down the backside of every leftist and every demon in hell. What? My God, it was like a Nuremberg rally with Billy Graham. I mean when I'm saying that, I mean it was like, you don't see stadiums packed with hundreds of thousands of discipline, focused, unified people all zeroing in on Jesus. The entire cabinet of Trump, if they were, you know, whatever Judeo Christian they were up there, it was wild. Sure, I know the left freaked out, but in after, after that, after that, I shouldn't use the word Nuremberg rally, I guess you right now Axios, bunch of reporters going, Lance Walnut, famous Christian nationalist, said that Charlie Kirk's memorial inspired him like a Nuremberg rally for Jesus. But you call it reverse signet ring anointing is when you put it in a word out there you can't take back. Leave it in, leave it in. You know what I'm saying? That's how they felt, not how we felt. Anyway, what happened after that? Everything fell apart. And what I prophesied, what I said happened, what did I say that happened? Do you remember I predicted, I said, ladies and gentlemen, after Charlie Kirk's departure, we're going to enter into a period the apostle Paul talks about in, in the book of Acts and I believe it was Acts. Let's see Acts 20 where he goes that. Yes, yes, yes, Acts 20. He says, I know that in verse 29. I know this. How about I know my Bible so well that I can pick up a random Bible and find the verse I'm looking for that is 40 years of mining in the great depths of the caverns of the revelations of God. Acts chapter 20, 29. Paul says, Look, I know that after my departing grievous wolves are going to enter in among you, not sparing the flock. Charlie Kirk was, if you like it or not, I'm going to tell you. He was a 31 year old young apostolic leader. He was able to forge together the finances, the operational capacity, the articulation of arguments, the evangelical. He was literally putting a tent up on college campuses and having tent revival meetings where he preached Jesus and refuted popular theories on campuses that caused the professors to blush because they were wrong with their indoctrination bill. He was cheered by the students who saw him as Stephen in the Bible going forth and debating against anyone who came up against him. And no one could resist the spirit of the wisdom by which he spoke. And Paul says, I know that after the departure, after you pull the footprint of someone like that out of something, a movement they created for a country under 30 years of age reaching to them and saying, get married, get your priorities ordered in the sight of God, develop a clear moral life, have children, get meaningful work. I'm going to fight for you to get housing and decent employment. America isn't going. You're not going to have to wait till 40 to own a home. We're going to come after you younger than 30. Capitalism, free enterprise, the creative opportunity that God gave us with America is superior to any other system, especially the lockstep diluted systems of communism or socialism that tear away your freedom and produce no lasting fruit for the majority of the citizens, but only for the elites. After my departing, Paul says, after Charlie Kirk's death, wolves are going to break in. The devil's going to come in and tear up this movement, the movement of maga, the movement of the solidified unification of all these various fronts in the grand coalition that we found at Charlie Kirk was actually the social conservative Christian glue that held all the spokes in place. And I know that from among your own selves, Candace Owens. From among your own selves, Nick Fuentes. Among your own selves, Tucker Carlson. Among your own selves, Steve Bannon. Among your own selves, Ben Shapiro. Among your own selves, Mark Levine. Men will arise and their divisive communication with each other will fragment the group that I made. And each of them will get a slice of the pie. I'm not saying those men are doing this to create an opportunity for a slice of the pie. I'm saying they're in their ignorance because they're not Christian. Or if they are, they are not mature. None of them is a mature Christian. They're all Judeo Christian subscribers to the ethos that there is a God and you know, the triune God and the history of Western civilization, Judeo Christianity in the Bible. But they'll be the first to admit that their line of country isn't exegesis of scripture like somebody with a master's degree in theology. Like I've got this isn't there like some people study real. I work with, I work with multi millionaires. They study the stock market, they study financial, they study media or they study whatever their field is, real estate. Trust me, there are sharks in the water. I thank God that they're godly Sharks. But they know their field. And I'm telling you, it's the same thing with the science of the word of God. Just because you can open up a book and quote it doesn't mean you've got a clue what it says. And these guys. Candace Owens to baby Catholic Christians, if she is a Christian, has. Has the deserting of an animal cracker. That's how. That's the IQ she's got in terms of discerning. She doesn't know her left foot from her right foot. She doesn't know whether Charlie's appearing to her in a dream. The Bible says, try the spirits. Test the spirits. She's talking to something. It's talking to her every day. She talks like, like, like. Like a deluded fanatic. And if you're listening to her every day, you got a problem. Because you got to square with the fact that it's Egyptians, it's bees, it's Erica, it's the staff, it's the FBI. It's me, it's Frank Turek, it's, you know, keep going around. Now we're back at Macron again and the M5, M16 Ultra program. Somebody got into Bridget McCrone at a very young age. For the guy that became a girl in order to become like a Manchurian Candidate. Where are you going to go with this? Candace. And if you're with her, you're making that large circuitous room going to tell you who watches her. People that have pride in the feeling like they. They're on the inside with her. She's given them a role. They're part of her Internet sleuth army. I'm so proud of you people. Gives me a feeling of significance as I go over a cliff. What Paul said here is, I know after I depart, wolves come in and you guys will fragment. And that's what happened in the movement. We'll be right back.

I'm Rodney Williams. And I'm Travis Holloway. Welcome to the Wealth Break. Let's be honest, building wealth doesn't look the same for everyone. It's not just about saving. It's about investing.

It's about creating a life where you can thrive and help others to do the same. So if you're ready for a podcast as much as about people as it is about money, you're in the right place. Listen to the Wealth Break podcast on the iHeartRadio app.

[Lance]

You are, you are the golden suit silver guy. You don't talk about silver much, I guess because Birch Gold does most of their money on gold. But silver, come on, talk about it. Because silver is the poor man's wealth investment now, isn't it?

[Philip]

Yeah. First of all, we sell a lot of silver. Most of our customers do a combination of gold and silver. We have to understand these two things are different. Gold is a monetary metal. It's a dollar hedge, it's a wealth preserver. You could go back 5,000 years, gold, gold's buying power endures. Silver is a little bit different. It's a safe haven asset, but also has industrial uses. And those demand for silver industrially is increasing significantly. It's used in solar technology, electric cars, AI chips, so these booming industries. And very interestingly, supply is also shrinking for about half a decade. And we've been consuming more silver annually in the United States than we can mine. Prices also very attractive. Look, post 70s gold and silver have traded about a 50 to 1 ratio. Today they're running over 80 to 1. So silver has this very interesting combination. Cheap prices, rising industrial demand and a shrinking supply. It is a very interesting growth play for those that are looking longer term at growth.

[Lance]

Now. I never asked you this question before, but it just reveals my ignorance on the subject. I've been, I put millions of dollars worth of people's money into Birch Gold. I'm not ashamed of it. I got people, I got old ladies that kiss me I made a lot of money off of you, young man, because they put their gold in when it was 2,000, 2,500. It's like they're looking at their retirement look at their asset portfolio, and it's looking very good because they listen to brother Lance. But what happens if somebody wants to get their money out? Let's say. I never ask you guys this question because we're always buying gold and silver and stuff. But so someone comes along and says, I got. I want to get this house over here. I'm going to buy this house. My son's building me a house on his property. How does that work? How do people. How do people go to get their gold and reverse it? Is it really worth 6,000 still? When they want to. What do they do with it?

[Philip]

It's just like, first of all, it's a very important question because an investment is only realized when you liquidate. So the ability to sell is very, very important. The answer is it's really, really, really simple. When clients want to sell, they give us a call. Bert's gold group are here. We can buy the medals back from them. We charge no fees or commissions to do it. So whether they have the metals at home storage, we can have those metals collected, brought back to our vault. We can put a check in their hand. Those that have physical precious metals within a retirement account, it's the same process of selling physical metals as anything else. You give us a call, put a liquidation request in, move to cash within the ira, and you pull the money out. So it is surprisingly easy, and from a mechanical standpoint, really not very different to people selling, you know, stocks or bonds. It works in a very similar way mechanically.

[Lance]

Well, I want everybody to know that, because I just want. I want to point out this is the best way to. I'm saying this for my. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not the financial expert. I got my. Look, I got my silver piece right here from Birch Gold. I say the best way to secure wealth for the unsophisticated investor is to do that transition into gold and silver. If you've been doing it with me over the last two and a half, three years, I've been telling you, my gosh, your gold would have, like, doubled. And silver right now is on a tear, 200% up from two years ago. So please pay attention. Now, two legendary investors, the bond king, Jeff Gundlach and Ray Dalio, who Steve Bannon always has a problem with, sounded alarms last week. What did they say? I Haven't had a chance to read the documents yet. I'm still processing what President Trump is doing. Give me the updates. What are these guys talking about?

[Philip]

Yeah, this was on Bloomberg.

[Lance]

Good.

[Philip]

Lack said, and I quote, he said the economy today is amongst the least healthy he's seen in his entire career. He referred to AI as a speculative mania. Dalio, on the other hand, and I thought this was interesting, he warned investors not to confuse their financial wealth with actual money. But what really struck me was these two very different minds approaching the same conclusion from opposite directions. And I think they're both circling a deeper truth.

[Lance]

The.

[Philip]

The theme is very simple. Price signals can lie. And the second part, big numbers on a screen aren't necessarily the same thing as real wealth. I think we've entered a period where psychology and stories can move faster than reality. And when that happens, I think it's easy for people to feel richer than they actually are. And that's sort of the warning here. Don't confuse things going up with actual purchasing power or financial security. They are two very different things.

[Lance]

Well, isn't that also the case, like with. I don't want to complicate my story, my life here, and I supposedly have 30 seconds. I just got to hold you on. I hardly ever get you and it's Thanksgiving week. Come on, Philip, I need you need a little more from you. What's the story with like cryptocurrencies and stuff like that? I mean, you talk about the illusion of wealth and like. And I never got heavily into. I may. I got like a full disclosure. Mercedes put me in an account and I think I got $50,000 thanks to her whippersnapper millennial ingenuity, because she saw something coming years ago and so parked it and it's got up to 50,000. So I really am open to sowing besides all waters is what the Bible says. But I'm also reading some summaries lately saying it's been like the wild west there too, where it's whipsawed back and forth. What's going on with the crypto world?

[Philip]

Listen, we saw a massive sell off. We've lost about $1.2 trillion in value over the last five weeks.

[Lance]

Woo. Wait a second. 1.5 trillion over the last five weeks?

[Philip]

Yeah, 1.2. It's a huge amount. About 25% of the total market. That is not a price drop, Lance. It is a forced deleveraging event. Once the big drawdown started, every leverage player in the space had to unwind positions and it turned what was a downturn into a cascade? That's not speculation in my mind. It's fear driving that. But I think when you zoom out, there's another layer here. Crypto was supposed to be the high beta express expression of the AI Boom. Now you've got the AI story wobbling. You've got liquidity thinning. You've got the Fed split right down the middle. So I think the entire speculative complex is losing oxygen at the same time. What's interesting is I think crypto could be the canary in the coal mine. When the riskiest sector of the economy starts to shake, it usually is a bad sign for other asset classes, but it's been a meltdown, to say the least.

[Lance]

Okay, real quick. What is it? What is Dalio talking about? He says wealth is in money.

[Philip]

Look, he's referring to numbers on a. On a spreadsheet being very different to actual wealth.

[Lance]

Right.

[Philip]

He's talking, I think, loosely about stock portfolio valuations that are well above and beyond reality today.

[Lance]

Today.

[Philip]

And he's saying, unless we actually liquidate, people feel very rich when they look at the value of their stock portfolios. But the question is, how long can that last? And he gave, I think, a good analogy, right? If the US Mint stopped making pennies, and I've got a roll of pennies, let's say 50 of them, and I sell you one for $10, does that mean the other 49 I have are now worth $490? I don't think so, but that's the mindset of a lot of investors today. And I think he's warning that financial wealth can expand much faster than the pool of real money that could ever support it. Look at hedge funds that are worth billions of dollars, valued at billions. Very rarely are they supported by actual billions of dollars of money. And I think that's what happened. And the problem is, when manias pop, it happens not because reality changes, but sentiment changes. And I think if you look across the economy today, I think it's very clear there are bubbles all over the place.

[Lance]

I read this verse the other day. Well yesterday to be honest with you. What sort of things are true, what sort of things are pure, whatsoever things are great, think on these things, excellent, etc. All words that describe the superlative realm of a lofty and an inspiring thought. Think on these things, I said to the Lord. How can I do that when I dwell in the cesspool of the news cycle? I mean, all you got to do is go, you know, commune with the troglodytes on X or Twitter and they'll pull you under with theirs with their kind of like squid like tentacles under the water. But Then I'm hacking my way out with commentary, defending myself left and right against the Candace own conspiracy theorists and then getting oxygen and saying I'm not going back into that area again. But then, then I'm. The next day, I've got to go back. You know why? Someone's got to do it. Someone's got to put the chalk mark around where the body fell for the investigator to see where the crime was committed. My job is to put a chalk mark around the news to show you where the actual facts are and separate them from the CIA and the Q N and conspiracy interpretations and whatever else is out there to confuse and discombobble the reality of the moment. So for instance, I think there's a way to do it. Yesterday I was during the news cycle and then I said, let's stop right now and pray. And boy, the cloud lifted off. I'm telling the truth about what's going on on the news. But you have to have the Bible in one hand and the newspaper in the other and then the discerning of spirits right there in the middle, like a plumb line to tell you what reality is. That's my new commitment for the new year. And I'm not waiting for January to have a new year. I'm starting it right now. Bible on one hand, news on the other. Boom. And then when it gets heavy, when I feel the heaviness upon me, it's time to pray. Oh yeah, we're gonna have a praying audience. If you're not a praying audience, then listen, the last thing I wanna do is meet you out of your earth suit on the other side of eternity and have you staring at me saying, lance, why didn't you tell me about this? I wanna prepare you. Life is brief. It's a vapor. And then boom, you're outta your body. Eternity's there. And I wanna make sure you got Jesus as the priority, not just a news item. Beautiful colors here. Look, we got the orange leaves. I was showing this earlier when all the equipment froze. I don't know if it's demonic attack or if it's just. I'm not. I'm running a low budget, you know, investment here. I need to upgrade. But I was just at this point in the program when everything changed, when everything froze a minute ago. So I'm half wondering if it's. If it's the autumn leaves maybe making the devil mad right now. But look, we have a beautiful set here. I got leaves, got the Thanksgiving. And by the way, second part of the show, we're gonna have the famous Rush Limbaugh Thanksgiving story. And maybe if you've seen it before, Matt Walsh has it on. All My Friends are, you know, putting it on right now. But it's great. It's when. It's when Rush tells the story that the actual celebration of Thanksgiving was not what you were told in the woke school system. Real brief history here. You know, the Jamestown Company, which was a business enterprise that was coming over here to find trade and business. But the Pilgrims were desperate to get out of the colonies because they were being persecuted, locked up and shut down because organized religion would not allow the dissenters they were called. They're basically just a church group that didn't want to be under the compromise of the religious denominations of Europe. And they were persecuted. So they came to the United States as a church relocation project. Did anyone ever teach you that in high school? Did they tell you that the Pilgrims were actually a church relocation project and that the businessmen said, yeah, okay, you could pay for the journey because we're going over to see if we can get some trade routes going here, baby, open up some new markets, kind of like the early Internet. And they didn't have an Internet, they just had water. So they came over here to see if they can get a new market. And when they arrived, it was kind of interesting. They had these heathen that were on there that basically were a bunch of hooligans who just wanted to go make money and, I don't know, do trade or do something with Indians. And then they had the religious folks, Jamestown colony. They planted a cross on the beach. They had a fasting and prayer for one day. They went on, dedicated the land from the east coast to the west coast, whatever they had no idea was on the west coast. From this land all the way in for the glory of God, we claim it. That was with Bradford and the Christians did. Meanwhile, the rest of the colony that wasn't Christians just stared at them. Had two different groups in America. Kind of like we got right now. We got the mercantile class, the people that want to make a living. The people that just are looking for the opportunity. Came over here through the open border, not because they love America, because they want a new beginning for themselves. Then you got the. The. Frankly, the. The. The Christian class, which is trying to see follow God and just wants religious freedom, freedom of conscience, and just wants to maintain the liberty that they got and, and prosper and flourish in a new world where they're free to worship God according to the dictates of their Heart. Well, Limbaugh tells the story how they almost died. Bradford's wife dies because of famine, because they had a communist socialist Mandami plan. And the plan was everybody worked together. And then whatever we all do together, like an Israeli kibbutz, we'll eat whatever produce we have. Well, they didn't know how to skin beavers, trap meat or fish. There's some things they should have learned on the way over. So they didn't know how to survive. The Indians, thank God, came along. One of them spoke English, ironically, because they were taken prisoner and became a slave of the British, but learned. Learned to speak English as a result, and then went on, then got their freedom and knew how to talk to Englishmen. And they kind of. This guy showed him, hey, you guys are stupid. You're killing yourselves. Here's what you do. Here's how you catch a fish here. So you skin a beaver. Here's how you survive in a winter. Here's how you plant corn, by the way, so thanks to the Indians for that. As part of the Thanksgiving Thanksgiving that, you know these guys, half of their crowd was dying. But they also realized that their socialist experiment was a mess. Everybody doesn't work the same. The young men didn't want to work for the older men who were like, you know, indoors and frail and couldn't really survive the last winter. And they said, why should I go plow all the fields and then give my produce to someone else? But that's the way people are. They haven't changed. Why am I going to work and sweat and do all this? And then the government's going to take it all and redistribute it to people that didn't do anything but moan and groan and complain and give the middle finger to me all day. Why am I working so hard for them? They don't do nothing. Well, you see, that's bad for morale in a country. That's why socialism. One of the reasons socialism doesn't work. It doesn't reward the sacrifice, ingenuity and risk of the entrepreneurial class. So Bradford, he said, heck with this. He said, I thought maybe that was the biblical Book of Acts thing. They had all things in common. He was trying to start with the Book of Acts, but they didn't have a Holy Ghost upper room experience, and they didn't have the wisdom of God leading them either. So he said, actually, everyone's gonna get a plot of ground. I'll tell you what, have at it, people. We'll survive this winter. We got corn. We Got some. We learned how to fish, we're learning how to hunt beaver, we're learning how to make some skins. I think we're gonna survive this winter, but how well we do depends on how well you do. Everyone has a plot acre of land or a plot of land, do what you want with it, boy. Those young guys went out there, they plowed that land, they had bumper crops so much so that they could then sell it even to the Indians. Next thing you know, free enterprise unleashed the pent up capacity of the American experiment. And suddenly everyone was thriving. Everyone was thriving. They had abundance. And that was the Thanksgiving where they were sharing back and selling produce even with the native American population that was here. And they came together for a great feast of thanksgiving to God. Thanksgiving to God for their survival and for giving them a land that had the produce capacity and for giving them the wisdom to make it after half of them died with the mondami socialist experiment. Now, Rush tells the story better than me in less time. But I had to get it out of my system for one reason. I wanted to rehearse it. You know why? Because my son in law is here in the studio and I wanted him to hear the story of Thanksgiving, the, the actual story and, and why when you hear it from all, all your woke schools that have you, you know, indoctrinated by Pocahontas and everything else, this will help you get sorted out. Well, I only got 2 minutes and 40 seconds, so let me just transition into. I'm going to. Well, it's an eight minute video clip, so we're going to play that in its entirety at the end of the next segment, cuz I want you to hear it. But right now we got two minutes. Hey, jump over to video seven. I want to hear Marjorie Taylor Greene. What the heck is going on with her. Watch this. I stood with President Trump when virtually no one else did. Campaigned all over the country, spent millions of my own dollars helping him get elected. And I think that's incredibly important. And I do support him and his administration and I support and delivering the campaign promises we made to the American people. His remarks of course have been hurtful. However, I have something in my heart that I think is incredibly important for our country and that is to end the toxic fighting in politics. And this has been going on for years and it has divided our country, split up friends and families, neighbors, and it's not solving our problems. The most hurtful thing he said, which is absolutely untrue, is he called me a traitor. And that is that is so extremely wrong. And those are the types of words used that can radicalize people against me and put my life in danger. Yeah, it's kind of like Candace Owens saying that, you know, Turning Point was working together with the Jews in order to kill Charlie puts people's lives in danger when you say stuff like that. But the president, what on his part? I got 58 seconds. Let's see how much I can say here. I'm withdrawing my support, he says in endorsement of Congresswoman Margie Taylor Greene of the great state of Georgia. Over the past few weeks, despite my creating record achievements in our country, including a total and complete victory on the shutdown, closed borders, low taxes, no men and women's sports, transgenders for everyone. Ending that DEI's stopping Biden's record setting inflation, biggest regulation cuts in history, stopping eight wars, rebuilding our military, being respected by every country in the world as opposed to being the LAUGHINGSTOCK we were 12 months ago. Having trillions of dollars is record setting people invested in the United States of America. Having created the hottest country anywhere in the world from being a dead country just 12 months ago and so much more, All I see is wacky Marjorie do is complain, complain, complain. It seemed to all begin when I sent her polls stating she shouldn't run for senator or governor because she's only got 12% statewide approval and that chance of winning. Unless of course, she had my endorsement, which she wasn't about to get. I got to stop now because of the frustrating time constraint I've got with Real America's Voice. I got to stop right here, right in the middle of a thought. All right, we'll be back in a second. Watch.

Well, when Trump writes the hot tweets, you can put your angry hat on. You can actually imagine what he's saying. Oh, Marjorie's doing. He said it's complain, complain, complain. It all began when I sent her polls stating that she shouldn't run for senator or governor. She's at 12%. Didn't have a chance. Unless of course, she had my endorsement. She has told many people she's upset that I don't return her calls anymore. But with 219 congressmen and women, 53 senators, 24 cabinet members and 200 countries, and an otherwise normal life to lead, I can't take a ranting lunatics call every day. I understand what wonderful conservative people are thinking about primary. I understand wonderful conservative people are thinking about primary Marjorie in her district of Georgia that they too are fed up with her antics and if the right person runs, they'll have my complete and unyielding support. She has gone far left, people. Even she did the View. She even went on the View with their low IQ Republican Haiti anchors. Thank you again for your attention to this matter. Make America great again, exclamation point. Well, I'll tell you what, when the boss is hot under the collar, this is what you get. You get these scorching ones. What time of day did he do this one? I don't know. It says 7:30 at night. Okay. It's the 2:00am ones I worry about all over the World, they read these things at 2am and knock on the door. You know, President Xi, he just, he just wrote something. Whoa. What did he say? Well, what he's saying here is if you, if you read this psychologically, he's saying all the stuff I'm doing, all the good I'm doing, and all you can do is rub me raw with Epstein. Epstein. What? Is he listening? You're doing this because it plays to your base. And the President's been doing this and he needs to focus on this and he needs to focus on that. Marjorie, I'm going to tell you what happened. They're both a lot alike, but she doesn't have the big stick. I work with Marjorie. I don't have a problem with her. I've worked with her, I've had her on my podcast. But she's a pushy girl. And that high dominant, entrepreneurial, tell it like it is. Personality gets results. But let me tell you something I always tell people in my programs, pay attention. Train stopping instructions. Whatever strength you have, if you overextend it, it becomes weakness and being combative and being outspoken. You gotta be careful when you're punching that. You only punch in the same weight class. If you ever punch a gorilla or a lion or a, you'll get mauled. And when you punch the President, you're not punching parallel, you're punching up. Never punch up. Always honor as much as possible. It's good biblical advice. Honor the king. Oh, I know someone's going to say lynch, he's not a king. I'm giving you biblical advice, people. Someone who's over you in a structure, respect them and be careful how you critique them so that you don't diminish their prestige, especially when they go out of and when you need them to return the favor. Marjorie wanted to run for a bigger office. She wrote her book. My problem with Marjorie is this. Why did you quit? Why did you quit? Why didn't you stay in office? I think she wants to run for president. I think she knows you're not going to win, but she doesn't care. She's going to sell a bunch of books. She's going to be on. Be a. You know, you get a lot of free media and publicity once you hit. Like, this is the thing I never wanted to do and it's the reason why I stay under the radar a little bit. I don't want that much visibility. It's weird. I like have self sabotaging things I do every now and then, which is like I Don't know that I want to bring myself into the fishbowl of public inspection to the degree that I have to have security traveling with me everywhere I go. But the Lord wants it. We'll do it. But I don't like it. But when you go up in the rainforest and your head is above everybody else to a high degree, here's the problem when you're up there. Well, here's the benefit of it. You got visibility. And visibility sells. It sells in podcasts, it sells in books, it sells in whatever enterprise you're in. And I think she's got a lot of money coming her way. I think she's already made like $28 million, $25 million. I don't decry her. That's I'm saying not everybody that goes into Congress actually knows how to work it. She knows. And she's got her tribe. And her tribe, like the Candace Owen tribe will be the Marjorie Taylor Greene tribe. And if they put her on the View or someplace else, you're gonna have record ratings. So I think she's self serving and not being congruent and honest about it because she didn't have to step down. She probably could have still taken that. I don't think she could have been president. Listen, people that Trump endorsed didn't get elected. I mean the mystique of his endorsement didn't take one person over the finish line that I know of in the last round of ugly elections. I think Marjorie could have held onto her seat. I think if she was really properly motivated, she should have served to the end of her term, which is what people voted her into office to do. Not do one year and quit while you set up your next career. That's where the self serving bothers me. I'm sorry. Correct me if I'm mistaken, but I'm not. Let's go to the ever immortal Rush Limbaugh. According to the Bible, it says him being dead, he yet speaketh. I want you to hear Thanksgiving from the one man who knew the story better than anything. And get this one for your kids because this will be the Ivermectin that'll protect them from the, the, the spread of progressive propaganda in the classroom when they talk about Indigenous Peoples Day and miss the real message of Thanksgiving. And we'll see you again tomorrow.

[Rush Limbaugh]

The true story of Thanksgiving. The story of the Pilgrims begins in the early part of the 17th century. The Church of England under King James the First was persecuting anyone and everyone who did not recognize its absolute civil and Spiritual authority, those who challenged ecclesiastical authority and those who believed strongly in freedom of worship were hunted down, imprisoned, and sometimes executed for their beliefs. A group of separatists first fled to Holland and established a community. After 11 years, about 40 of them agreed to make a perilous journey to the New World, where they would certainly face hardships, but could live and worship God according to the dictates of their own Consciences. On August 1, 1620, the Mayflower set sail. It carried a total of 102 passengers, including 40 Pilgrims led by William Bradford. On the journey, Bradford set up an agreement, a contract, that established just and equal laws for all members of the new community, irrespective of their religious beliefs. Where did the revolutionary ideas expressed in the Mayflower Compact come from? They came from the Bible. The Pilgrims were a people completely steeped in the lessons of the Old and New Testaments. They looked to the ancient Israelites for their example, and because of the biblical precedent set forth in Scripture, they never doubted that their experiment would work. But it was no pleasure cruise. The journey to the New World was a long and arduous one. And when the Pilgrims landed in New England in November, they found, according to Bradford's detailed journal, a cold, barren, desolate wilderness. There were no friends to greet them, he wrote. There were no houses to shelter them. There were no inns where they could refresh themselves. And the sacrifice that they had made for freedom was just beginning. During the first winter, half the Pilgrims, including Bradford's own wife, died of either starvation, sickness or exposure. When spring finally came, Indians taught the settlers how to plant corn, fish for cod and skin beavers for coats. Life improved for the Pilgrims, but they did not yet prosper. And this is important to understand because this is where modern American history lessons often end. Thanksgiving is actually explained in some textbooks as a holiday for which the Pilgrims gave thanks to the Indians for saving their lives, rather than as a devout expression of gratitude grounded in the tradition of both the Old and New Testaments. Here's the part that's been omitted. The original contract the Pilgrims had entered into with their merchant sponsors in London called for everything they produced to go into a common store, and each member of the community was entitled to one common share. All of the land that they cleared and the houses they built belonged to the community as well, and they were going to distribute it equally. All the land they cleared, the houses they built, belonged to the community. Nobody owned anything. They just had a share in it. It was a commune. It was the forerunner to the communes we saw in the 60s and 70s out in California. And it was complete with organic vegetables. Even just like the communes of today.

Are.

There'S no question it was organic vegetables. Bradford, who had become the new governor of the colony, recognized that this form of collectivism was as costly and destructive to the pilgrims as that first harsh winter which had taken so many lives. He decided to take bold action. Bradford assigned a plot of land to each family to work and manage, thus turning loose the power of the marketplace. Long before Karl Marx was even born, the Pilgrims had discovered and experimented with what could only be described as socialism. And what happened? It didn't work. They nearly starved. It never has worked. What Bradford and his community found was that the most creative and industrious people had no incentive to work any harder than anybody else unless they could utilize the power of personal motivation. But while most of the rest of the world has been experimenting with socialism for well over a hundred years, trying to refine it, perfect it, and reinvent it, the Pilgrims decided early on to scrap it permanently. What Bradford wrote about this social experiment should be in every school child's history lesson. If it were, we might prevent such needless suffering in the future, such as that we are enduring now the experience that we had in this common course and condition. This is Bradford. The experience we had in this common course and condition tried Sunday years that by taking away property and bringing community into a commonwealth would make them happy and flourishing as if they were wiser than God. Bradford wrote, for this community, so far as it was, was found to breed much confusion and discontent and retard much employment that would have been to their benefit and comfort for young men that were most able and fit for labor and service did repine that they should spend their time and strength to work for other men's wives and children without being paid for it. That was thought injustice. Why should you work for other people when you can't work for yourself? What's the point? That's what he was saying. The Pilgrims found that people could not be expected to do their best work without incentive. So what did Bradford's community try next? They unharnished the power of good old free enterprise by invoking the undergirding capitalistic principle of private property. Every family was assigned its own plot of land to work and permitted to market its own own crops and products. What was the result? Bradford wrote, this had very good success, for it made all hands industrious. So as much more corn was planted than otherwise would have been. Is it possible that supply side economics could have existed before the 1980s. Yes. Read the story of Joseph and Pharaoh in Genesis 41. Following Joseph's suggestion, Pharaoh reduced the tax on Egyptians to 20% during the seven years of plenty and the earth brought forth in heaps. Well, in no time the pilgrims found that they had more food than they could eat themselves. This. This is where it gets really good. If you're laboring under the misconception that I was. As I was taught in school, they set up trading posts, they exchanged goods with the Indians, the profits allowed them to pay off their debts to the merchants in London, and the success and the prosperity of the Plymouth settlement attracted more Europeans and began what came to be known as the Great Puritan Migration. But this story stops when the Indians taught the newly arrived suffering and socialism pilgrims how to plant corn and fish for cod. That's where the original Thanksgiving story stops. Story basically doesn't even begin there. The real story of Thanksgiving is William Bradford giving thanks to God for the guidance and the inspiration to set up a thriving colony that socialism caused near starvation. The bounty was shared with the Indians. They did sit down. They did have free range turkey and organic vegetables. But it wasn't the Indians who saved the day. It was capitalism and scripture which saved the day, as acknowledged by George Washington in his first Thanksgiving proclamation in 1780.

Greetings, naturopathy. Dr. Dennis Black here, founder of Rough Greens. And if only dogs could talk. I think a lot of them would say, hey, thanks for the love, but this food, it's not working for me. The truth is, they'd be right. Because most dog food, wet or dry, is cooked at such high temperatures that every live nutrient in it is destroyed and what you're left with is dead food bulked up with fillers and sprayed with artificial flavors. That's not what dogs need. But when you add back in the live vitamins, omega oils and antioxidants are in rough greens. Your dog would say something different. Like they'd say, wow, this is delicious. Or sluggish dogs might say, hey, let's.

[Rush Limbaugh]

Go for a walk.
