Well folks, if you haven't noticed, chaos has erupted around the country in all of these blue cities. But there is another story that is not being told on the mainstream media. Another story that restores my faith in Americans that there are good patriots out there and they are signing up to rescue our law enforcement officers who work with ICE and Border Patrol. Listen to this. They're doing great. In fact, Rachel, just at ICE, we had over 220,000 applications for 10,000 openings. At USCIS, we've had tens of thousands of applications. Secret Service applications have more than doubled. We've got people in every department that are asking to come and work for the Department of Homeland Security because they recognize that we want to defend the homeland. 10,000 jobs. Over 200,000 applications to work for ICE. God bless these men and women. It is a tribute to everyday Americans out there who are Literally willing to put their lives on the line and go face to face with street thugs like this. Watch this.
- [03:06]
Lynn Davenport
Pretty incredible that these protesters have overtaken this. And there's really. There's no police. I don't see anybody here to kind of manage this crowd. So like I was saying, this is at the tail end of a very long day. Looks like they're. They're cheering because they were able to push that officer back inside.
- [03:32]
Grant Stinchfield
Push the officer back inside. All what you saw right there was about forcing an officer back into the building. I'm telling you, they have taken over. Now. That's Los Angeles. We expect it there. But when riots broke out in Portland, Oregon, I knew that the jigsaw was up. That is Portland, Oregon. We got something going on here today. That is Portland, Oregon. And the jig is up, as I said. Because once chaos like that ensues in Portland, you now realize what these rioters, what these street thugs, what these chaos creators really want, it has nothing to do with the illegal aliens. Portland is literally like the Emerald City of rioting, okay? Where they own the streets. This is about an excuse to destroy things, to go after law enforcement, to make people's lives miserable. This isn't about ice. It's not about illegal aliens. And they're feeling sorry for them. It's literally an excuse to. To riot. And they have hijacked these blue cities. This is Minneapolis, where they hijacked this city as well. Watch. And we're talking about making sure that your neighbors can get access to emergency services.
- [05:15]
Lynn Davenport
City buses have been easily passing.
- [05:18]
Grant Stinchfield
And we're all here when they come.
- [05:20]
Sheriff Chad Bianco
We'll move it for then.
- [05:21]
Grant Stinchfield
You know, frankly, you're the one blocking it right now. They got swapped plates on their cars. That's not legal in Minnesota.
- [05:29]
Lynn Davenport
Thank you.
- [05:30]
Sheriff Chad Bianco
Take care.
- [05:31]
Grant Stinchfield
Would you look for ice next time? Cops just leave. They let them take over the streets. You don't do that. These chaos creators own the streets now. They own the streets in Portland. They own the streets in Minneapolis. They own the streets in Los Angeles. Now. This is not fake authority. This is real authority because the cops have basically given it to them. Watch how this goes down. These are not police, by the way. These are chaos creators trying to direct this van.
- [06:06]
Sheriff Chad Bianco
I know.
- [06:06]
Grant Stinchfield
And it's nothing to do with your work or you personally. It's just a safety issue. We don't let cars through once we have a big crowd like this.
- [06:12]
Public Podcast Announcer
I'm sorry about these.
- [06:17]
Grant Stinchfield
I'm trying to turn right. All right, get behind the truck so no one else Tries. Normally I would say you don't get to decide where cars and vans get to drive in a, in a city in America, but in Minneapolis they do. And many of these other blue cities there's not a police officer to be found here. There is no respect for law enforcement, not from the street thugs, not from the people that roam city hall, none of it. This is an ICE agent by the way, in Minneapolis. Just trying to get some lunch, a soda, watch what happens. He's pretty calm but man oh man, I think he's in a dangerous situation here.
- [07:11]
Lynn Davenport
Get the.
- [07:24]
Grant Stinchfield
The guy is literally just trying to get his hat. The F bombs, the curse words and the whistles. You know what the whistles signal to me? It signals to me that the people blowing them are mentally ill. The whistles don't do you any good but annoy people around you. And they blow them and blow them and blow them like they're a special needs children that you have gotten a whistle for the first time. So you wonder if all of this is working because in many respects President Trump has made the decision, you know what? We'll give these leftist cities what they want. See how they respond when these chaos creators take over the streets, when the criminality takes over the streets. This was the warning President Trump offered up. Not quite sure what to think about it. I want the, I mean honestly, the crime ridden cities are all Democrat run cities and if they want help they have to ask for it because if we go in all they do is complain. But if they want help, they can ask for it and they're going to need help. Los Angeles as an example. We went in, we solved it. The chief law enforcement officer, Los Angeles said they couldn't have done it without the federal government. A week later he said they didn't need the federal government, you know, so we don't want that. If they want help, they'll ask but they have to say please. They're not going to say please. They don't want the help. We've watched LA be destroyed right before our eyes. Minneapolis, Portland, Seattle, Boston, D.C. president Trump helped Mayor somewhat, worked with him. The problem is there are good people in these cities. There really are. All these looney goons you see on the streets, they're not everyday folks. Many of them are from out of town. There are good people that want the help. Somebody who's well aware of this is RAV correspondent Ben Berkoum. He's been in the middle of all of this craziness around the country. He's also spoken to good people around the country that want to help. Ben Berkham, welcome back to the program.
- [09:31]
Ben Bergquam
Thank you, Grant.
- [09:32]
Grant Stinchfield
Ben, what do you tell the people in Minneapolis or Portland that do want help, that don't want to see these, these losers roaming the streets?
- [09:43]
Ben Bergquam
I'm mixed on it, Grant.
- [09:45]
Matteo Ferrero
I.
- [09:45]
Ben Bergquam
Look, I'm kind of where President Trump is. If you want to burn your cities to the ground, you know, we've reported on this for years. I was back reporting on Antifa back in President Trump's first term, and I watched places like Portland and Berkeley and Oakland and San Francisco and Seattle and New York and Chicago and all of these places, Minneapolis, I watched them stand their cops down. So, you know, at some point you have to say, well, this, you're gonna have to live with the consequences of the policies that your decision makers make. And if that means actually receiving some of those consequences, painfully, I actually don't have a problem with that. You don't want our help, then fine. We're not gonna give it. What I wish President Trump would do is say that and immediately pull every single dollar of federal funds that are going to these sanctuary jurisdictions and say, we're not giving another dime to your lawless city until you are willing to abide by the law. Follow the law. But what we've saw, what I saw in Minneapolis and what we witnessed over this weekend across America is truly the death of Western civilization if we don't stop it. This is a cancer that has spread because of our education propaganda system from elementary and high school, where they're actually inviting these kids to go out and protest to college campuses across America now combined with international jihad, this is a very, very serious situation. And for every American across this country, even if you live in rural areas, this is coming to you. If we don't kill this cancer now, it's coming to you, Ben.
- [11:18]
Grant Stinchfield
The sad reality is the mental illness you see on the streets has taken over the highest levels of government. Let me play you the governor of New York. This is Kathy Hochul. Listen to what Kathy Hochul says about working with police. And I want my police going after the murderers, the rapists, the gun traffickers, being available for emergencies, and if they're off there being deputized by ICE out of these agreements that just a few of our counties are doing, they're being distracted. And I do not want that. And I'm not going to be supporting that. And we're going to change the law in the state of New York. Ben, nobody knows better than you. You've ridden around with ice. Exactly. The very people she said she wants police to arrest are the very people that ICE is going after. Ben.
- [12:03]
Ben Bergquam
Yeah, this is. This is how stupid our society has gotten, where we elect people like this who are totally either clueless or intentionally deceptive, that she's pretending like that's not who ICE is going after. ICE is going after those people because you allowed them in. You invited in tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of criminal illegal aliens that rape, that murder, that take advantage of your system. And beyond that, all of the illegals that are here, that destroy the foundation, the fabric of this country, from our education system, our hospitals, every area of society is impacted by this. And you have an idiot like that who is put in one of the highest positions in American politics that is totally, utterly out of touch with the reality that her constituents have to live with every single day. And as you said, there are a lot of good people in New York, there are a lot of good people in California, a lot of good people in Minnesota and Oregon. But until we get these people out of power, the bigger issue to me, Grant, is it's not just arresting the illegals. I say this all the time. We've got to arrest and deport every illegal, but we have to arrest and prosecute the people that are getting in the way, the traitors that are getting in the way, the people that made this whistle. I was out there at George Floyd Square, and this person out in front of their house had this basket of whistles so that people could take them and go out and obstruct ice. So we took them all. I was there with Will Johnson. We took them all so nobody else could use them. But this is what they're up against. You've got to go take their whistles, break their whistles and tell them, prosecute these traitors for what they are. If that doesn't happen, man, we are. It's. It's a dark place for this country. But we have to have a generation that stands up, said, no more compromise. It's. We're going to defeat this cancer. We're going to destroy it in our generation.
- [13:47]
Grant Stinchfield
I'll tell you, that's the best advice going, Ben, which is why we bring you on the program. The whistles, the only purpose they serve is you see someone blowing it, you can be pretty sure they're mentally ill, just like the masks. Served a great purpose to show you, here comes a crazy liberal coming through the airport. That's the only purpose they serve, though. So I'm glad you got Some of those whistles. Ben Berkwam, as always, thank you for coming on and blowing the whistle on the left. Appreciate it, buddy.
- [14:13]
Ben Bergquam
My pleasure. God bless ice.
- [14:15]
Grant Stinchfield
Absolutely. All right, I want to turn now to the shutdown, which will continue on into Tuesday. There is no doubt about that. I'm not sure how they're going to get over this. So Hakeem Jeffries, the leader of the Democrats says they're not going to work with the Republicans. Speaker Johnson knows he's got some conservative factions who rightly are upset about some of the spending in this bill. President Trump wants it, though. So I would get on board with just getting this thing through and funding the government. There may have to be some special rules that are made because the way I see it, the House is going to need 2/3 of a vote. They're never going to get that. Some rule game playing can be done for Speaker Johnson to get creative on all of this. But it has told me that we need to do what Senator Johnson wants to do and that is create an act that would end all of these shutdowns. Listen, the unit party appropriators like the shutdown leverage they have basically using government employees in the public as pawns in the dysfunctional game that has to end. Lending Shutdown act would end this Shutdown Fairness act or at least pay people that you know they're going to get paid anyway, but he pay him on time. All right, it's called the Eliminate Shutdown Fairness Act. What does it do if you can't come to an agreement? I think they ought to add to this act that Congress is the only group that doesn't get paid. Okay, but the act says automatically a continuing resolution goes into effect for 14 days, which means you continue spending at the levels that were already in place. Now, I don't like continuing resolutions, but this act is a common sense solution to a real life problem that we're never going to get Democrats and Republicans to agree. And so the shutdown is used as a pawn and the American people are hurt. A continuing resolution, 14 days over and over again, you know what will happen? We'll be under a Constant Cross for 14 days. Now, I would also offer up this after 30 days, then budget cuts at 1, 2, 3, 4% every week. After 30 days, you cut 1% or 2% or 3%, come up with a number and just start slashing the budget. I'm down with that. In the end though, we have to do something. Much of this, and if not all of this fight comes back to Immigration. And it is because of Joe Biden's open border policies. He unleashed a flood of illegals into this country. We are now seeing the problems of this with crime and then of course, the enablement by blue cities, states and towns. Nowhere is this more prevalent than we see commercial driver's licenses given to illegal aliens. Who could Forget this video? VO22, the crashes that we've seen on America's highways by 18 wheelers being driven by illegal aliens. We know California has a big problem with this, but what about New York? Well, the Federation of Immigration Reform wants to get information from New York. New York's not giving it up under the Freedom of Information Act. So FAIR has sued New York. I want to bring in the Director of Investigations at the Federation for American Immigration Reform. Matteo Ferrero is with us. Mateo, great to have you on the program.
- [17:46]
Matteo Ferrero
Great, thank you, Grant.
- [17:48]
Grant Stinchfield
All right, so what specifically would you like to see from New York?
- [17:54]
Lynn Davenport
Sure.
- [17:54]
Matteo Ferrero
Yeah. So we this past week, FAIR filed suit against the State of New York Department of Motor Vehicles for their failure to respond to our Freedom of Information Law requests of them related to the city at CDL issue. In particular, we asked the State of New York for data on their issuance of non domiciled commercial driver's licenses. That's basically CDLs that are issued to, you know, foreign nationals or people who are in states that do not have proper certification authority in other states. So we asked for that data as well as data relating to the, the state's administration of their CDL knowledge tests, particularly the administration of that, of those tests in, not in any languages other than English and what the pass fail rates were with respect to. All right, those.
- [19:03]
Grant Stinchfield
Mateo, what did you get back from New York?
- [19:07]
Matteo Ferrero
So we were completely stonewalled by, by the New York dmv. What, what, what happened is in October we submitted our initial request. They had five days to respond to that. At the end of those five days, the state said they needed 40 days to, you know, gather the data for our request. But unfortunately, at the end of those 40 days, the state requested another 40 day extension. So it's now been over four months since our initial requests were submitted to the state in violation of the statutory deadlines that the state has to respond to us.
- [19:56]
Grant Stinchfield
I guess, Last question for you. I know why you want the information. It's a huge problem. People that can't speak English, driving on the highways, it's against the law, by the way, at a federal level. What does it tell you that they're stonewalling. What is the message you're getting that New York is stonewalling on this. Sure.
- [20:14]
Matteo Ferrero
We think that they're stonewalling because clearly they are not administering the CDL program in accordance with federal standards, which, as you are correct in saying, you know, there are minimum federal standards that states who are issuing CDLs have to abide by. And ever since the incidents that we've seen in the past year, in particular the Indian foreign national who killed three individuals in Florida and several other incidents that have occurred across the the country have, have revealed that, you know, clearly there are illegal aliens who are receiving CDLs in contravention of federal standards which require states to verify, you know, that, that these individuals have legal status or are US Citizens before receiving their cdls. So that's part of clearly a large.
- [21:07]
Grant Stinchfield
If, if they knew the information wasn't going to be damning, they would have given it to you right away. I wish you luck on this lawsuit. Great work that you guys do over at the Federation for American Immigration Reform. We always appreciate you. There's not a lot of groups doing the work that you do, and we're grateful for it. Matteo, thanks for coming on tonight.
- [21:26]
Matteo Ferrero
Thank you, Grant.
- [21:27]
Grant Stinchfield
Absolutely. Now, I want to turn briefly to the midterms. Little warning for you. A very good friend of mine lost a special election for a state Senate seat here in Texas. This is a state Senate seat in the Dallas Fort Worth area in one of the most conservative districts in Texas. It was a plus 17 for Trump district. She lost. Lee Wansguns is who I'm talking about. And she lost to a Democrat. To me, this could spell trouble. I'm not putting all the stock into it that it's some kind of a sign that Republicans are failing. But this is certainly a data point, and it's a data point that is not good. And it certainly concerns me. President Trump was asked about this at Mar a Lago over the weekend. You mean I won by 17 and this person lost? Things like that happen. Does it worry you about. Well, you don't know whether or not it's transferable. You know, I'm not on the ballot. So you don't know whether or not it's transferable. But you put the Democrats in, you'll end up with open borders again. You'll end up with crime all over the place. We have no crime anymore. Well, that is exactly what will happen. And I would offer up that President Trump is right. He wasn't on the ballot. This was a special election on a Saturday in Texas. Now it's not far from me. I know her. Not my district. We didn't have an election where I live. I quite frankly didn't even know it was Saturday. So that's a real problem. If I do this for a living professionally, and I didn't know, maybe it's on me. But you're asking the average soccer mom or dad to figure it out. Maybe they turn their people out better than we did, but we've got to look at that and say, hey, what in the world is going on? All right, international disputes, inflation, rising national debt, digital currency. There is a never ending list of reasons gold has risen over 700% in the last 20 years and a never ending list of reasons smart Americans diversify a portion of their savings into precious metals with Birch Gold Group.

Massive amounts of alleged medical fraud is being uncovered in California. Guess what county is smack in the middle of this one?

Grant Stinchfield
Welcome back everyone. Now to America's Fraud Crisis. Well we know about Minnesota I've been sounding the alarm on California for a long time. And then I see Dr. Oz out there. He's the head of Medicare and Medicaid for President Trump, and he revealed that L. A County. You ready for this? Los Angeles county amounts to 18% of total U.S. health care billing. It all comes out of L A County. From the federal government's perspective, 18% out of one county, one doctor billed $120 million. Now, much of this surrounds hospice care. Do you know there are 2,000 hospice agencies in L A? 2,000. Here's Dr. Oz. Deal is, we will give you extra stuff to make sure you're comfortable. In return, you give up your Medicare, you give up access to all the regular care you would normally get. And the company that does this takes that money that we would have paid the Medicare for you and uses it to make your life more comfortable. Now, if you're not ready to die because you're not terminal when they do this, they pull you into a different system. They now no longer let you go back and get regular care. And. And everybody's getting rich off it, okay? That's the bottom line. I'm not sure any doctor should be billing $120 million a year. That's a lot of medical care. Then we turn to the homeless. I call it a crisis, but it's a self created crisis. I mean, they throw so much money at homelessness in California. What do you think happens? Every homeless guy in America says, let's go to California where we can get some cash. $24 billion spent on homelessness. The homeless numbers continue to increase in California. It amounts to about $170,000 per homeless person. But then you ask some of the homeless people if they've gotten any money. This was uncovered by Benny Johnson, our friend. Listen to this.
- [27:21]
Public Podcast Announcer
Has Gavin Newsom done anything for you? Exactly. So have you guys seen any of that money?
- [27:27]
Grant Stinchfield
Has anybody?
- [27:29]
Matteo Ferrero
No, no, I got nothing.
- [27:31]
Grant Stinchfield
I'm still right here. Yeah, I didn't know there's that much money in it.
- [27:33]
Ben Bergquam
For $170,000, they could have easily built.
- [27:36]
Grant Stinchfield
Long houses with 50 to 100 hammocks in each one. Have you seen any of that money? No, no. $170,000. Have you ever gotten any payments? Get payment for what? Yeah, exactly, because it's one giant grift, in my opinion. It's going to all these agencies, all these non governmental organizations. Everybody's getting rich off the homeless crisis and you're not solving homelessness. One reason you don't solve homelessness is because you can get help in America if you're homeless. It's pretty darn easy, actually. There's private agencies that'll help you. Government agencies that'll help you. Most of those people want to live on the street. That's the harsh reality. People don't like to talk about it, but it is true. So as Benny Johnson was exposing this, he was interviewing a good friend of ours, the Riverside county, California, sheriff. He is a Republican candidate for governor, and they were blowing the lid off of some of this fraud. And protesters got word. Watch.
- [28:31]
Sheriff Chad Bianco
So they're rallying protesters to come and surround us. We are not going to get help from LAPD. This is the reality of Los Angeles.
- [28:39]
Public Podcast Announcer
I can't.
- [28:40]
Ben Bergquam
This is.
- [28:40]
Grant Stinchfield
This is crazy.
- [28:41]
Public Podcast Announcer
So they're coming.
- [28:42]
Grant Stinchfield
So they're, like, staging a mob, and.
- [28:43]
Public Podcast Announcer
The police say they're not going to help us.
- [28:44]
Sheriff Chad Bianco
Yes.
- [28:45]
Grant Stinchfield
So we got to go. You got to go at that. Next to Benny Johnson was Chad Bianco, the sheriff of Riverside county just outside of L. A. I want to bring him in now. Riverside county, California, sheriff and Republican candidate for governor, Chad Bianco is with us. Sheriff is good to see you again.
- [29:06]
Sheriff Chad Bianco
Hey, Grant. Good seeing you, Sheriff.
- [29:08]
Grant Stinchfield
I played that on my podcast this morning, and I thought, that's the sheriff of the neighboring county. They're not going to help you.
- [29:17]
Sheriff Chad Bianco
Yeah. It was shocking to me when we got that word, and there was a little bit of a backstory behind it in that two weeks prior, there was a. There was an ice shooting that had happened there, and all of the protesters surrounded ICE and pretty much overrun lapd and they don't have the resources to leave what they're doing to come to something like that. So they told us, basically, you need to get out. And they didn't tell me I had to leave. They. This is. With. This was very cordial, and they said, you look your best. Your best option is to leave because we don't have the resources coming in and help you. And it looks like it's not going to get good.
- [29:51]
Grant Stinchfield
So very cordial. I'd get the hell out of there. Otherwise your ass is going to get kicked because you got no back.
- [29:57]
Sheriff Chad Bianco
You know, I'll tell you the sad part about it is, is that's a reality. It's like we're all. Even when I'm telling my staff, it's like, what world are we living in that I, as the sheriff, have to be worried about protesters coming and surrounding us in Los Angeles, where. I gotta be honest with you, if it was Riverside county, it would never happen. Protesters would not surround us because they know there's a consequence for what they're doing. But we watch what's happening in LA with the highway patrol and with, with our federal agency partners that they were just being overrun and attacked. And so, I mean, that's not my jurisdiction. I don't have control of that. So that's a reality that we had to think about. What we're trying to get stories from the homeless. We're trying to expose what's going on, this fraud, this abuse and everything else. And then you have people that are riding around on purpose that are trying to create this controversy really, that's being enabled by the city and it's such a, a third world country down there that we're living in. It's just nothing made sense.
- [31:01]
Grant Stinchfield
Well, I can say this. I know a lot of sheriffs around the country and you are right there at the top of the list. And if I had to be in a tough spot with, surrounded by protesters, I'd want Sheriff Bianco next to me. But, but still, that's not a position you want to be in. And all the while, all you're trying to do, Sheriff, is uncover the fraud aspect of this. You heard about the health care fraud, we know about the homelessness fraud in California. What do you do about it if you become governor? How do you get to the bottom of it?
- [31:32]
Sheriff Chad Bianco
Yeah, it's. It's super, super easy. Number one, you actually have to care. And as soon as you care, then you do something about it. When you don't care, when you're using it for your own benefit, why would you ever. Why would you ever get rid of it? Why would. Why does Karen Bass ever want to get rid of it when all of the money that she's giving to all of these people, or when Newsom, the state money is going to these people, when that backdoor comes, their election coffers and make sure they get elected again to keep this going. What, let's be honest. Why would you want to stop it? Karen Bass doesn't want to stop the homeless in LA because she benefits from it. Her friends benefit from it. And it's an ongoing thing. So for me, it's. I actually care. I cared about those people that I was talking to. Benny and I were traveling, going up and down those streets, talking to people and we were getting emotional, listening to their stories, begging for help, begging for somebody to care for them.

Grant Stinchfield
Let me play one of those individuals that, that clearly feels like he has to Move. Roll cut nine for the sheriff.
- [32:32]
Public Podcast Announcer
That's a guy's house right there. You live right there.
- [32:35]
Grant Stinchfield
You're moving because you can't take all the homeless. Yeah.
- [32:38]
Public Podcast Announcer
Your children live here.
- [32:39]
Grant Stinchfield
Yeah. It's not possible for the street. Of course. That is not safe. Look at that barbed wire. You're living in a war zone.
- [32:46]
Public Podcast Announcer
This is all about trafficking and human misery.
- [32:51]
Grant Stinchfield
Look at this. Amazing sheriff. I'll give you the last word.
- [33:01]
Sheriff Chad Bianco
And what have to go through in the tents and the people that were living on the street right outside those kids homes. It.
- [33:06]
Lynn Davenport
It.
- [33:06]
Sheriff Chad Bianco
It should be embarrassing for the mayor, but it's not. As. As the governor of California, I will actually help them. Number one, all of this money going to the nonprofits and the NGOs absolutely stops the ones that are going to raise their hands and say, hey, you're hurting my business. Look what we're doing here. And then we'll give their money back. The rest of them are fraudulent and they are going to go to jail.
- [33:27]
Grant Stinchfield
Yeah. That's what has to be done. Sheriff Bianco, I always appreciate you coming on and I haven't seen you in a while. It's good to see you again. Bianco for governor is the website. Help him out. Thank you, my friend.
- [33:38]
Sheriff Chad Bianco
Thanks, Grant. Have a great one.
- [33:40]
Grant Stinchfield
Absolutely. You too. And be safe out there in California. You got to tell that to everybody, even the sheriff. That's how bad it's gotten in California. All right. We are only a few weeks into winter and already brutal. Cold, huge snowstorms, and of course power outages. That's why so many Americans are getting a Vesta off the grid heater from my Patriot supply. It's a space heater that doesn't use electricity or propane. It runs on something called canned heat, which is an indoor safe fuel. It even doubles as a stove to cook your food. The best part is right now you can get the Vesta and a bunch of more preparedness gear as free gifts when you order the winter survival kit from my Patriot supply. Just go to my patriotsupply.com forward/rav to see everything included. This offer will not last long. Go to my Patriotsupply.com forward/rav right now. All right. Could the push for school choice open the door for Islamification of Texas? This is a different take on school choice, one I didn't expect. Next.

Grant Stinchfield
Welcome back everybody. Soldiers. I have always been a big proponent of school choice, not in the way that most school choice people want it. I'm not a voucher guy. I believe you give government vouchers. You use it at a private school. Guess what happens? The private school is going to raise tuition. I'm a school choice guy when it comes to public education. Meaning you should be able to choose what public school you want to go to make the public schools compete for your kids business. But I saw an interesting take on the voucher program and that school choice has absolutely opened the door for the Islamification of education. What do I mean? How is this possible? Well, I want to bring in the person who tipped me off to this education policy analyst Lynn Davenport to the program. Lynn, good to see you. Welcome.
- [36:46]
Lynn Davenport
Thank you Grant. Thanks for having me. Yes.
- [36:48]
Grant Stinchfield
All right, so school choice enabling the Islamification of education. Explain this to me.
- [36:56]
Lynn Davenport
Yes, so the agenda is privatization. And privatization is where you shift the public dollars into private hands. And it was pitched by Milton Friedman to lift the rising tide, lift all boats between the public schools and the charter schools. Well, that's not what happened. What it did was it opened up the door for Islamization or or Islamification of Texas. Because the largest charter school chain in Texas is the Gulen Islamic Charter School. So there are 84 in Texas. They're called the Harmony or the Royal Charters. And there's also a science and technology charter. So through that privatization effort to shift the money away from public schools into charter schools which are they take public dollars. They do not have locally elected boards. They have appointed boards. So they're actually without representation. But yeah. So that's how the Gulen movement, which was started by Fethullah Gulen, he has since passed away, but he was exiled in the Poconos and he tried to overthrow the Turkish government and he was using American dollars, allegedly.
- [38:09]
Grant Stinchfield
So let me go back just a second. In Texas, the largest charter school operation is Muslim.
- [38:18]
Lynn Davenport
Yes. So it was. Yes, exactly. So our public dollars are funding this Islamic movement. And Dan Patrick, our lieutenant governor in Texas, is a major champion of not only charter schools, but also the Gulen Harmony Schools. And a lot of our legislators are taking on these junkets to Turkey so that they will support them and they're funded through their campaign donations. So they all sing their praises.
- [38:44]
Grant Stinchfield
Don Hef, do you think, do they, do they know that this Harmony School is a Muslim based, is it Muslim based curriculum? Are they indoctrinating these kids into the Muslim way of life?
- [38:58]
Lynn Davenport
Well, that's a good question. So they still have to adhere to the same standards that our public schools do and the same standards as the other charter schools do. But yes, they're, they're, they brought in men from through H1B visas, and I want to say there were 6,500, I believe, H1B visas for these men. So like Don Huffines, my former senator, said, well, I've never seen him teaching Islam in there. I've toured the schools. Well, are they going to do that on the day that you come to visit? No, they're not. So your guess is as good as mine if they're indoctrinating them. But I will tell you, since the vouchers just passed through the Texas legislature and that was the number one issue for Governor Greg Abbott, not immigration or the border or any other major issue like election fraud. But school choice was his number one issue. He held four special sessions on this issue. So now the vouchers will be able to go to these. There's 30. Not the charter schools. I'm talking about Islamic private schools. Now there are 30 in Texas and they will, they can apply for the voucher. Now he can deem them tied with, he can say, the governor can say that they have ties to CARE or Muslim Brotherhood, but there are precedents in the legal realm that will be overturned. They will overturn the governor's rule.
- [40:19]
Grant Stinchfield
That will be a fight he'll have on his hands and a, and a legal, legal fight. So here's how I see this. Look, the Idea. Milton Friedman was a brilliant, brilliant free market guy. I'm such a dork. I still listen to Milton Friedman videos. Like when I can't sleep at night, I listen to Milton Friedman. But your challenge with conservatives is going to be we've always been taught that get kids, get schools competing for your kids business. The idea is great. Is there a way to keep that idea in place without having to give the Islamification of our children an open door?
- [40:57]
Lynn Davenport
Well, yeah. We need to repeal the bills that have completely hamstrung the public schools into doing what you want. That we want choice in our public schools, like you mentioned earlier. We want choice in our neighborhood school. We want a classical education. We want them to return to books, paper, pencils and have great teachers, pay the teachers with the money saved on all these wasteful experiments. But that's not what we champion. Instead, we talk about school choice and you know, like Lee Wambskins lost that senate race. I mean, a huge loss. And she flip flopped on school choice. She was, she knew exactly what I'm saying about school choice and she changed. And I think they have pressure from the donors to support school choice.
- [41:40]
Grant Stinchfield
I can tell you there is that pressure there. Lynn Davenport. This is really an eye opening take on school choice and it's something that has to be considered. It's something we have to keep an eye on our lawmakers for. I appreciate you coming on as always. Thank you. Please keep us updated on this.
- [41:57]
Lynn Davenport
I will. Thanks, Grant.
- [41:58]
Grant Stinchfield
All right, thank you so much. We'll keep an eye on that too. And don't forget, folks, to check out after hours with Alex Stein Premiering tonight at 11pm right here on Real America's Voice. My buddy Alex Stein will be here. And up next, anti ice rhetoric took center stage last night at the Grammys. See how bad it was. We will do that next.
- [42:22]
Lynn Davenport
Next.
- [42:35]
Grant Stinchfield
Welcome back, everyone. So I had the Stitchfield's army crew here at Real America's Voice watch the Grammys last night mainly so I didn't have to, but mostly so you didn't have to either. I thought we'd go through some of the lowlights. And I will tell you, there were a couple highlights at the Grammys, if you can believe it. We're gonna save those the best for last. But let's go through some of the lowlights. President Trump is now threatening to sue the host, Trevor Noah, who is a total failed loser, as President Trump puts it, for this comment. Song of the year. Congratulations, Billie Eilish. Wow, that is a Grammy that every.
- [43:16]
Matteo Ferrero
Artist wants almost as much as Trump wants Greenland.
- [43:21]
Grant Stinchfield
Which makes sense. I mean, because Epstein's island is gone. He needs a new one to hang.
- [43:24]
Ben Bergquam
Out with Bill Clinton.
- [43:25]
Lynn Davenport
So.
- [43:26]
Grant Stinchfield
Oh, I told you, it's my last year. What are you gonna do about it? People laugh, but it's not funny now. There is no evidence whatsoever. In fact, it's been debunked over and over again. President Trump has never been to Epstein Island. President Trump kicked Jeffrey Epstein out of Mar A Lago. So what is that nonsense? It's just designed to do one thing. Defame President Trump. So President Trump said this on Truth Social, and I'll read it directly. Noah, a total loser. Better get his facts straight and get them straight fast. It looks like I'll be sending my lawyers to sue this poor, pathetic, talentless dope of an emcee and suing him for plenty of money. Ask little George Sloppadopoulos and others how that all worked out. Also ask cbs. Get ready, Noah. I'm going to have some fun with you, President djt. Do not put it past President Trump to sic his very formidable attorneys on Trevor Noah. And quite frankly, even if he doesn't win, just twisting the arm of Trevor. Trevor Noah, just sticking the fork in him is satisfaction for me. Now, you heard Trevor Noah mentioned Billie Eilish for. For best song. I have no idea what song it is. I don't really like Billie Eilish. I don't really like any of this music. I. I really listen to country music. Well, I listen to both kinds of music, country and western. Beyond that, I. I'm not really into all of this stuff, but. But this is probably why no one.
- [45:05]
Lynn Davenport
Is illegal on stolen land. It's just really hard to know what to say and what to do right now. And I just. I feel really hopeful in this room and I feel like we just need to keep fighting and speaking up and protesting and our. Our voices really do matter and the people matter.
- [45:25]
Grant Stinchfield
Well, I guess they cut it out. But she says F us place and she talks about stolen land. Stolen land. So if it's so stolen, Billie Eilish, I don't know where your mansion is. I'm sure you have one. I'm sure it's well deserved for all the views that you put out there. But maybe you donated to some Indian. I could find one in Oklahoma who'd be happy to take one off of your hands. Okay. This mansion of yours, donate it. What are you living in? It's all stolen land. Give it up. But I don't see Them doing any of that. Bad Bunny, who is going to be performing at the Super Bowl. Now, again, I couldn't tell you one song from Bad Bunny. This is what he had to say. Before I say thanks to God.
- [46:23]
Sheriff Chad Bianco
I'm.
- [46:23]
Public Podcast Announcer
Gonna say, eyes out.
- [46:27]
Grant Stinchfield
We're not savage. We're not animals. We're not aliens. We are humans, and we are Americans. Well, let me tell you something, Bad Bunny. You're Puerto Rican, so you're not in the United States illegally. You don't get to group yourself in with the people who came here illegally. Now, as much as I wish you were an illegal alien so we can deport you, we can't. But I will not be watching the super bowl halftime show. I will be watching a halftime show right here on Rav Turning Point. USA now says they will have their own halftime show. Rav will be carrying that. And. And it should be a huge lineup, including Kid Rock will be performing for that halftime show much better than Bad Bunny. Now to the highlights of the Grammys. Yes, I said highlights. This is Emily Austin. She has a sports show. When all of the crazy people were standing ovations for saying F ice and ice out, she sat back down and had this to say. Standing ovation for ice out. I'm gonna sit down. I'm gonna sit down. You should all be a famed.
- [47:44]
Lynn Davenport
I love our law enforcement.
- [47:48]
Grant Stinchfield
Thank you. Now, I don't know her sports show, but guess what? I will try to find it and I will watch it as a reward. Not just me, but I hope all of you as well. That's how you encourage good behavior, by rewarding people like this. Emily Austin. A big thumbs up and a very big thank you. Now to what I would call the moment of the evening. I asked my crew. Jelly Roll. Country music star, spent a lot of time in prison, turned his life around. I know he loves Jesus. I don't really know where he stands on politics. My assumption is he probably falls on our side of the aisle. But either way, he didn't make it about politics. He made it about God. And you don't hear many of them talking like this at the Grammys. Thanks, Jelly Roll. And I believe that those two things could change my life. I believe that music had the power to change my life, and God had.
- [48:46]
Ben Bergquam
The power to change my life.
- [48:47]
Grant Stinchfield
And I want to tell y' all right now, Jesus is for everybody. Jesus is not owned by one political party. Jesus is not owned by no music label. Jesus is Jesus. And anybody can have a relationship with him. I love you, Lord. Amen. To that and he is spot on. Now I will respond to his comment about Jesus is not owned by any political party. I agree. Anybody can be called to love Jesus and embrace Christianity, but only one party really does in this country. Democrats certainly don't. Democrats hate God. We talk about this a lot. There is a war on religion in this country and it is being waged by the Democrats. So Jelly roll, thank you for that. All right folks, the United Kingdom would rather ban dogs than secure their border. We will talk about that next.

I will tell you what. I am so glad I do not live in the United Kingdom. This nation has gone off the deep end, okay? Not only do they have unfettered immigration which is ruining the country, they are embracing Islam like without any barriers. And the worst of Islam as well. Apparently if you're Muslim, they hate dogs. I didn't know this. I actually know some Muslims. I didn't know that they hate dogs. I thought it was the Haitians that are eating the dogs. Apparently not. Scarlett McGuire, a former labor adviser on GB News, says this is the solution to a making the countryside more diverse.
- [51:45]
Lynn Davenport
Listen, it's not about, yeah, it's a lot about the national parks and, and.
- [51:51]
Sheriff Chad Bianco
And getting people out there and making.
- [51:53]
Grant Stinchfield
National parks for everybody.
- [51:55]
Lynn Davenport
And one of the problems is dogs.
- [51:57]
Grant Stinchfield
And, and actually this isn't just about.
- [52:00]
Sheriff Chad Bianco
The fact that a lot of Muslims.
- [52:01]
Grant Stinchfield
Find dogs very difficult. It is about people. Why do they know how to control their dogs? Well, I agree there are some people that do not know how to control their dogs, especially misbehaved dogs. Put them on a leash, please. Put them on a leash. But the idea of getting rid of dogs because Muslims don't like them. No. Poor goose. He's around here someplace. Goose, the golden retriever. We're not getting rid of you, Goose. Don't get rid of your dog either. Folks. That's going to do it for us. Stitchfield's army rolls because of all of you. We'll see you back here tomorrow night, 7pM Eastern time, right here on Rap.
