This Memorial Day, Remember The Courage And Forgiveness That Made America Great

Thank you for choosing W FORCY Radio. Well, hello America, Bill Martinez here. Great to have you with us sharing a part of your day. Tell you really excited out to our guests today Scott Powell, who will be with us momentarily. But before we bring Scott on, you know, the thought came to mind with this being, you know, Pride Month in all, in the middle of the night, I got to thinking, Okay, what are you proud of? You know? And because I think this is an opportunity to counter the narrative that's out there on the streets. You know, how do you explain to your kids what's going on? This is I mean, whether it's on television, on the streets parades, baseball games, going to Target, to Walmart anymore. All this is thrown in our face. It's being uh, you know, pushed on the kids, even at schools.
1:44 But I thought, okay, wait a minute. They're having their Pride month. But we have a lot to be proud of. And I mean this in in our own natural sort of way. I mean in pride in the sense as the Bible would talk about it, that pride cometh before destruction or before a fall. Right. So I thought, Okay, I'm proud of my faith in Almighty God, who created all things and is sovereign overall. I'm proud of my family, you know. I'm proud of my service to this great country. I'm proud of being part of this great American experiment that is freed more people, elevated more people out of poverty, given more people an opportunity to achieve their dreams and greatness. You know, I'm proud that our allies liberated millions in saved Western civilization from communism and fascism. I'm proud of the hard working ethic that has been woven into the woof and warp of our exceptionalism. I'm proud that when disaster strikes, who is it? It's America who generally is first to respond with food services and relief. I'm sure that you have lots to be proud of as well, and maybe we can be thankful for this Pride Month in a way that causes us to pause and not necessarily get angry or to be insulted, or if nothing else, maybe to think, Okay, what are you what are you proud of? You know, let's let's personalize it. They're personalizing it. Why can't we personalize
3:19 the reason for our pride? And there's lots to be proud of here. And you know, the polling would tell us that only a small percentage of Americans are really uh, you know behind you know, the trans movement. The majority of Americans, whether we're talking about athletes or you know, whether in the education system, whether just in just living living our lives in peace, we're we're not supporting what these activists and I mean I mean it in a way that you know, what they're doing to us and how they're trying to force this upon us. You know, it first started with you know, let's let live and and uh, you know, let's uh live and you know, let them live and let us live and you know, live in peace and go on. But no, that's not enough. Now, it's got to be a very aggressive, very you know, virulent. And so if we don't take a stand and kind of reverse it and say, okay, look it, I've got lots to be proud of too. And that's what I'm going to talk to about my kids, our good friend with focus on the family. Who is an Issue's analyst Jeff Johnston. I may have mentioned this yesterday, said that, you know, we need to talk to our kids about this. We need to explain to them, you know what, what is going on, Why why is this happening? And it's not it's not to offend, you know, necessarily, even though I would
4:51 say that, and I can understand why people say, well, it offends me, you know, being a Catholic, I'm I'm offended by the uh, the radical nuns, the nuns you know that, you know, say that they should be that we should send more, We should send more, is what they say. It's an offense. It's offense what they put on display, how they mock a communion, how they mock you know, the crucified Christ. And here it is what started out as kind of a street entertainment satirical group in San Francisco is now being honored, you know, at Dodger Stadium. They were, and they're not. They're back on, I mean, and they're getting no an award. You know, the Angels have jumped in on the bandwagon too. I guess these sports teams have forgotten what it's all about. It's you, it's between the lines. It's what happens on the ball field, now what happens outside, and it's turning off their constituency. In fact, when I first heard about the Dodgers doing this, they say, what are they throwing the talent on their season already? That that's amazing to me. I mean, like they didn't learn what the NFL went through and what happens when you get outside the lines and you're more interested in things that have nothing to do with what's between the lines, which is what the people are paying a big ticket price to come and watch and to be entertained. Okay, it's all it's all a matter of amusement and entertainment, and you got to think about what amusement means, okay, And the thing is is that maybe this is part of the challenge that we have here
6:24 in our country. We've been so amused, and what amusement means is that it's without without our brains, without thinking. It's just a you know, kind of a passive experience that happens when we are amused. Okay, and we've got to start thinking again, especially when it comes to critical thinking that seems to be abandoned out of our classrooms, and in the process we've kind of rendered ourselves, you know, a bit stupid, which Jordan Peterson would say, But you know, when you get so siloed and you're only listening to yourself or others like you, then you come up with some you know, goofy responses and goofy things like you know, what's happened with Budweiser or a disney and you think, whoa, I mean, don't they don't they get it? You know, a guy with a mustache and address asking little girls to come in and buy dresses at Disneyland. I'm sorry, you know that that's that is a bit goofy, But it goes back to something that we've been you know, talking about for quite a while, and that is understanding, you know that which is legitimate and that which is fake. You know, I love what the banking institution does. You know, when it comes to discerning a real uh, you know, real currency from counterfeit.
7:46 They don't study the counterfeit, they study the real That's how they know the difference when a counterfeit comes into play. And I think here in our culture, that's the opportunity we need to, you know, alter and adjust our things and start looking at the things that are legitimate. I've been saying for quite a while, we need to return to first principles, the first principles that truly made America great. We talk about making America great again. Well, if we're going to make America great again, we've got to go back and reapprehend those principles that started this whole great American idea to begin with. We're so influenced by the culture and by these forces that I'm not sure most Americans really understand or that they can even see, because they're so overwhelmed by the counterfeit and the illegitimate that they can no longer tell the difference between you know, a truth and the lie. And when you abandon the truth or you come up with some sort of contemporary idea that somehow the truth is relative, or you know it's your truth, or might no, there's only one truth, there's only one objective truth, but you abandon that so that somehow you can win an argument, somehow you can be right. But at what expense? What kind of damage are you doing to yourself, your own life.
9:09 That's one thing, but then you're passing it on to your kids, the grandchildren, the next generation. This is the kind of America that you want to live in. If you want America to be grant again, we've got to come back to first principles. We've got to think about. Okay, what started this country? Why was this country started in the first place? Was started here because the Puritans were praying to God, saying, God, please give us a country. Can we have a country where we can truly be free and be able to worship You freely? Because they were being oppressed by their own governments and telling them how and when they were going to worship God, and they knew instinctively that was not right. And this was a prayer that went out for many years. And God answered that prayer and brought him to the America. And then the story began, and what a wonderful story. It's been not perfect, because we're all humanoids and we can make mistakes, and certainly we've made our number of mistakes. But the good thing about America is that we get to adjust and we get to learn from the mistakes. And I think we've done this and we will continue to do this, God willing. We've got to go to break. We've got more coming up. Thank you for being with us, Stay right here. The
10:41 FDA issued an import alert for US customs authorities to detain illegal disposable flavored nicotine ET cigarettes from foreign countries, including China. Rich Marianos is a former assistant director for the ATF now with Georgetown University. These disposable East cigarettes have become a real problem. It's encouraging to see the FDA act at the border, but our kids need them to take the next steps and remove these foreign disposables from the store shelves. They have the authority and now it's time to act. Sponsored by the Border Security Alliance. Hi, I'm Ronnie Deutsch and if you or your business own money to the IRS, I've got great news for you.

Bill Martinez here and all kinds of fun here technologically speaking, and trying to get Scott Powell connected with us. Scott just give you a little bit of a background. He is the author of Rediscovering America, which is a user's manual and how to fix this country. It's written in a lively, uplifting way, providing real hope through understanding God's hand in this great
14:22 country. As we were saying earlier, you know, we got to think of our roots and when we say first principles, we've got to return to those things that started at all that made America great. And this is what Scott talks about in this book that is so important that you need to get your hands on and read it for yourself because it will have an enlightening effect and say, wow, I can see what's going on and how we've missed the mark. Because this is what happens in businesses when businesses are not being successful. And I would say before the current period of time, because I think there's some other outside influences that are affecting the effectiveness of businesses today, things that they're being compelled to do, which has nothing, interestingly enough, has nothing to do with profits, has nothing to do with the customer.
15:20 It only has to do with the economic forum and an agenda that serves others than we, the people, other than the consumer. Can you imagine. I mean, it wasn't that long ago. I mean I grew up in business where it's that number one rule in business is the customer is always right. And the second rule is is if you ever forget the number you know, ever forget or think that the customer is not right, it refers you back to number one. So it is a circle so to speak, that brings you back to your beginning, that is the customer is always right. Well, nothing has changed, really, It is just that you know, the customer right now is trying to figure this out and going, wait a minute, this is not this is not what I bought, this is not what I'm supporting. But it's being thrust upon us very much like what happened.
16:11 What's happening in China. You know, China has their social credit scores right for everyday citizens and you have to meet this social credit score or at least it is a measurement device. You know, we have a little bit about that, you know, with a Pyco score and credit rating and that sort of thing. But they use it and how you based on how they perceive that you behave. They've got algorithms they're seeing that. You know, you're doing certain U searches, online searches for ideas that are not compliant with the with the CCP. Well that's a that's a demerit, that's a mark against you, right, so you kind of get the idea. Well, in business they're doing the same thing. You have the World Economic Forum right on an international level whose desire is to have a one world government handling everything because all these different countries, you know, they're no longer responsible. I mean, it's kind of like the same thing. You know, we have leadership in this country. They think three hundred thirty million, we're all knuckleheads, so we don't know better that we ought to be blessed. You know.
17:19 Nancy Blosi said, oh, you should be so grateful you've got these great elected officials that are leading the way, leading the way? Where and how great are they? I mean, so many of them aren't paying their bills. Uh, they're I mean they have all kinds of financial issues. There's ethical issues that are going on in our government today. But we're going to trust them to lead the way. And look at what they've done. You know, they've got us in debt to the tune of thirty one point five six trillion dollars. They're putting us in a position where our security, our national security ompromised. We have a program, social Security that we've paid into, and in the mid sixties, they opened up the lockbox and access the funds for their own interest. And then what they do with these funds is they go out and buy votes. That's what they do. That's that's what happened with all this spending under Joe Biden. Will fast forward into the most recent years, and what did he do. He opened up the treasury and he paid off all these debts. And I maintain that these debts had accumulated because guess what, they never expected Donald Trump to win, you know, and when Donald Trump won, they made all these promises to all these big money people. I think it's about what five hundred and forty it's been estimated five and forty billionaires that are all complicit in the deep state. And
18:51 this last time around in twenty twenty, they got the results that they bought because they had to make sure the Democratic Party paid on their past debt and the only way they could do that is by having control of the White House. And they got it. And you heard the information with Joe Freed earlier this week in his book Debunked question Mark in breaking down the numbers, they're not fooling anybody. You at sixty five seventy percent of the country knows that there were shenanigans there. We just can't really quite put our finger on because so massive, and we're not getting any kind of cooperation from the courts to say, okay, we want to look at the numbers. Let's find out what happened, particularly in the swing states, what kind of deviousness, what kind of shenanigans exactly took place. I mean, don't forget you got over a thousand people we sworn affidavits at the threat. If you put in a false affidavit like that, your subject, your subject of consequences like jail time and some serious finds. Of course that's for we the people. Now happens to be a government official, they can get away with murder. We've seen that time and time again. But us, look at, we violate an affidavid like that, and if you're not associated with the FBI, if you're not James Coomy or somebody like that, then you're going to pay for it.
20:17 But regardless, you have over a thousand people. These are people who've had they've had experience in observing elections and they saw some clear discrepancies and they raised their right hand and said, I swear it as the whole truth. Nothing but this is what happened. Of course, that's all been ignored and tossed under because they know that. Look at meanwhile, we're having to deal with Joe Biden, and Joe Biden is getting his program, his agenda in at the people's expense. I mean, here we were two years ago, we were energy independent. I just got back from California five dollars fifty cents for a gallon of gas in California. I'm back here in the land of the Free in Florida. I'm paying three twenty five. I mean, what what's up with that? Why? Why is it so different? But you know, certainly Joe Biden and his policies administration have exacerbated the problem. They said, look at we have a better way. Okay, you have a better way. We're going to now be energy dependent. We're going to be counting on these very countries that you all the years and all the other Democrats said, we got to quit relying on these people that don't like us.
21:30 And what did you do? You put us back into this codependency with the people that you know are no longer our allies and they are colluding with the communist Chinese to take over America's number one spot. How does that make sense? What is that going to mean for we the people? But look at you know, eighty some million people supposedly voted for Joe Biden, and even to this day, is approved rating sits at about I don't know, it fluctuates between forty six forty eight percent. And go, who are these people? I mean, do you just like paying? Do you like paying more for gasoline? You like paying? I don't know, what are we about to seven thousand dollars more a year for the goods than we did last year.
22:19 Meanwhile, the government got a raise, by the way, I don't know if you notice that they got a raise, we got to cut and pay. You know, on one hand, they gave us, they increased our wages a little bit. We were able to get a little bit more money. But then again, what we know from the government. What the government giveth, the government take it away, and it took away whatever increase in money that we got by way of inflation, and inflation came because of the policies that Joe Biden put into effect in order to keep his radical left part of his party happy. You know, all the Bernie Sanders socialists got to keep mappy. We got to go down this pipe dream, this green agenda, And there's no indication. I mean, for all the billions that we've got to be approximating a trillion dollars that have been invested over the decades in all the green energy and what we got buppkuts, what do we have to show for it? Is there any really around the corner hope that you know that this energy is this green agenda energy is going to be the answer for the American people. I don't see it, and I'm happy to hear and see the proof. If you've got it, you know, show it to me Bill at Bill Martinez Live dot com. Drop me a line, say Bill, you're missing this. You know this is where it's at.
23:40 I'm not seeing it. I'm just seeing the money going out, and I'm seeing everyday Americans being injured and put under a lot of pressure because of these incredible and really in many ways, I would say, you know, stupid policies from this current administration.

Our audience has been so gracious in helping us expand we've expanded in this new tech, in this new talk show where we're now giving you video and audio talk for TV. We're grateful for our sponsors and we are continuing to open up more outlets and expand our reach. And if you want to participate in this, you can as a nonprofit donation to our partners, Hill of a Hope. It's a Bible one three C nonprofit organization. So when you go to our website at Bill martinezhow dot com, you will see a button there to donate and whatever whatever, you know, five dollars you know, tend to you know, whatever you can do to help the cause.
28:47 Because that's how we've been able to do this for fifteen plus years, has been in you know, by generous donations you know, from our listeners supporting U supporting this program. And what we're about is bringing on you know, people, experience guests, people who have been in the business and their disciplines, you know for thirty plus years, experts in their field, best selling authors, political commentators, constitutional scholars, people who who believe in God. Because at the basis of all this is our presentation is to present the information in a way that edifies you, that is biblically based. We say that holds to a biblical worldview. And you say, well, Billy, why a biblical worldview? Because that's where we find the truth. Okay, Today, unfortunately the truth is no longer a defense. The truth has become an offense. But that cannot stop us because you know what am I going to do? If I see you going to a wall? Am I going to lie and say, well, you're really not going to a wall with your car at one hundred and twenty miles an hour. You're really not going to hurt yourself, okay, because that's what the culture says that, yeah, you should just keep on going and aim for the scene. Meant wall, it's not going to be a problem. That's not the truth. I mean, let's get real. Reality is, hey, you're driving too fast.
30:04 You're gonna hit the wall, and you're gonna get hurt. Okay. So it's that basic. Uh, you know, I'd say also that we find ourselves defying gravity. There are specific laws that operate this popcorn stand in which we live in. And guess who established those laws. Almighty God himself did. It's an infrastructure that is set up to produce a specific result, a God given result, that when we honor that result, it goes well with us. You know. I often remember the discussion that God had with Kane after you know, Kane offered a you know, a not so accepting form of sacrifice. As you'll recall, he thought, well, you know, he did, okay, job well with God, it's not about being okay, you got to do the right thing. And God summed up his statement and his admonition to Kane that echoes through the millennia and we all should hear it and embrace it one percent. And that is he said, Kane, look at if you do well, will it not go right for you?
31:11 Think about that? If you do well, will it not go right for you? What it God mean? If you do well? And if you follow their rules, if you obey God. You know there are rules in this universe. They were established by God. They weren't established by demons, by angels. They weren't established by political governments and Joe Biden, the Democrats, Nancy Pelosi, but by God himself those are fixed. This is why when man in his arrogance thinks, oh I got a better way, the Bible says God laughs. It just don't know what they don't know. It's ridiculous. But you know, being humanoids that we are, will go ahead and challenge it and learn the hard way, like defying gravity. And you find out the hard way when you hit the ground. It hurts, and at some point you keep going. You finally accept the fact that hey, you know, that's that's consistent. You know, I keep trying to find gravity, whether it's in California, whether it's in Baltimore, in Florida.
32:15 Funny thing, the same results. Well, that is the nature of God's infrastructure. And the beautiful thing is is when we honor it, we're blessed. Scott Powell is in the green room and let's bring him on right now, the author of Rediscovering America. Hey, mister Scott, good to have you with us. How are you, sir? Thanks? Bill Well, I was just explained to the audience, you know a little bit of the conversation of between God and Kine when God told him and told all of us, you know, throughout the millennia that if we do well, will it not go right for us? The well refers to if we honor God's infrastructure and that which He's put into motion, that it will go well for us.
33:01 And and you know, and doing right is uh doing the righteous thing, the thing that honors God, because God is a righteous God. You're absolutely right, Bill, And from a sort of a very practical perspective, you know, when we align our lives with God's order, with what God would have how God would have us live, everything goes better. Relationships go better. Uh, you know, are. We immediately benefit when we align ourselves with God's principles and it's and it doesn't require painful things that it requires.
33:42 Uh. I mean the foundation of the Christian faith is that we accept that we're sinners. We repent of our sins. We confess our sins, repent of them, and ask Christ to come into our lives that we can be the people that He wants us to be. And uh, and He will guide our ways and we don't have to worry as much. We don't have to try to figure everything out. We just do things the right way and then good good fortune follow us well. And Scott, people are so frustrated in today's America. I say today's America, but it's around the world. I mean, this is a pandemic, a spiritual pandemic of its own sword. And God is faithful. I mean time and again you read in past history when knuckleheaded humanoids like us decided to defy God. God is there waiting for the prodigal to come home. And He even at this moment is saying, look at turn to me. I don't want you to suffer.
34:43 I don't want you to go through this. And you know, we see we see the things that are happening out there in the landscape, Scott. We see China revving up and threatening things. We see what's going on in Ukraine, what's going on Saudi Arabia, Iran. We I've got threats all around. And not to mention all the stuff that's happening in the culture. You know, parents are they don't know what to do. They can't go to Disney anymore without seeing some men in a mustache trying to sell their daughter addressed dressed up like a woman, or go to a ball game and run into the same thing, run into you know, some nuns that are you know, out of their skulls and misrepresenting the Catholic Church. It's absolute madness that's happening. And they're they're, they're they're like they're throwing their hands up and go, what can I do? Well? When there's no rational explanation for what is going on, I think the first place we should look is in the spiritual On the spiritual side of life, and Jonathan Khan has written a recent book called The Return of the Gods, where he argues that when we drive God and his heavenly spirits out of our culture that creates a vacuum and evil spirits can enter, and so we we definitely are reaping the consequences of having driven God out of our culture. Because the influence of demonic and evil spirits manifests itself in many different ways, but you clearly can see it in basic ways. For instance, the trans agenda and the legitimization of pedophilia
36:21 is so egregious. It's so obvious that that is that flies in the face of God's order. I mean, it's repulsive to most people. Where did it come from? How can this be? Well, it can be explained because demonic spirits are driving people with these appetites and with these inclinations, and it's almost as though they don't it's not the rational side of their lives that's guiding this behavior. But it's really a demonic spiritual It's a demonic spiritual influence that seems to capture people, capture the culture, and drive narratives and drive new realities. These are demonic realities though right exactly, we've got about a minute left here. Uh. The thing, it's amazing to me, Scott, It's happened so quickly. You and I grew up. We may have run into a little bit of this minor, but not to this incredible release of the demonic You're so right. I mean, life was a lot simpler when we grew up, you know. So again we're reminded that what is different now is this is that we have driven God out of the American culture, and that vacuum has allowed a different spiritual world to come into our into our atmosphere. If you into our culture exactly and create a new reality,
37:52 a new demonic reality. This is a demonic reality that we're facing. No, you have to combat it by calling on God and we can drive these well, we've got to go to break. We got to go to break. We'll pick it up and there when we come back. Okay, more from Scott Powell after this.

Hey, welcome back Bill Martinez here, and we've got Scott Pale, the author of Rediscovering America. How the National Holidays tell an amazing story about who we are. You know, I was saying earlier, Scott, before you came on that this being Pride Month, we as Americans have a lot to be proud of. That maybe we should reverse the narrative. Let's make it our month, you know, being proud of being an American, proud of this rich American history, all these things that you write about in your book.
42:08 Well, absolutely, I mean there is a lot to be uh, to be proud about and to celebrate. Um. And when we start with the basics, um, where we you know, there's a lot to cover. So if we keep adding on to things, we we dilute the meaning of holidays such as Memorial Day and fourth of July and so forth. Um, you know, these are individual days. This is an interesting that that this woke agenda now captures a whole month. It's you know, it's a celebration of one month. That's unique in our culture right now. We don't we don't celebrate Washington's birthday, Presidents Day for more than a day. We don't celebrate thanks accept on the third Thursday in November and so forth. So why is it that we're we're giving a whole month to this exactly, and we're just on the other side of Memorial Day? Right one point six million people plus gave their lives for our freedom. We give them one day, and for this trans movement, we give them an entire month. This is upside down, Scott, it is. It absolutely is so. So that's why your work bill is so important to you know, just keep keep educating people and ask your audience to spread the word because we've gone to push back
43:39 and recapture our culture and that is a grassroots movement. Now you write about moral authority, well, I'll tell you that is that is so huge because when you think about it, this is what caused Lucifer to fall right, yes, yes, you know, you think about it, right, go ahead, yeah, the the you know, the what I wrote and it'll be published in town Hall tomorrow on the secret weapon that America's secret weapon is is moral authority. And indeed it is because when we, for instance, you know, confront the Chinese that have an illegitimate communist government, it's really a mafia government that people didn't know elect these these communists, so they really don't have any moral authority of the people of China, whereas in our system we have really three sources of moral authority. We have our Judeo Christian heritage and the founders. You know, the struggle of the Founders was all oriented around God given freedoms that was institutionalized in the Constitution. So we have the Constitution. And lastly we have the people themselves. You know, the Constitution empowered the people that we are a government of the people, by the people, and for the people, and the people express themselves through elections. And so I write in this article how important it is that we regain electoral integrity,
45:15 because without it we have greatly diminished moral authority in the world. So he scott. The critical thing after that the consent of the government, and they and they show their consent by their vote, that if that vote is compromised, therefore their consent is not given. You're absolutely right, Bill Well said, I think I may not have added that point, and it's a very important one, right, because the consent of the government is part of this moral authority, and if you have a vote fraud canceling votes of people, then you undermine the whole system of this, you know, consent of the government and the moral authority that comes from the consent of the government.
46:06 Yeah, and so then what you're doing is you're really, in a sense, the government is promoting its own annihilation because they have violated the trust contract with the people, have they not? They have, And that's why it just is kind of it's very perplexing why it's been so difficult to get courts and to get even even many people who call themselves Republicans to really push for electoral integrity, to question the vote of the twenty twenty election, to question the vote of Carrie Lake in Arizona in twenty twenty two. These there is so much evidence of vote fraud. It is just overwhelming, actually, and so for people not to say, we've got to get to the bottom of this. If we've had a fraudent election, we have to get to the bottom of it. We've got to get accountability, and we have to restore the integrity of our election system or we don't have the moral authority that we need for the American people and for our stature in the world. You know, Scott, I was looking back regarding voter fraud because it was Eric Holder during the Obama years had pronounced everybody that voter fraud didn't exist, and I thought, well, that's interesting. If it doesn't exist, why are people
47:37 getting arrested and spending time in jail for voter fraud if it doesn't exist. Heritage Foundation has done a great job in in enumerating the most recent abuses of voter fraud. But as I looked back, I mean, there was voter fraud as earlier, back in the seventeen hundreds, so it is not a new thing. And I mentioned to the audience the other day that in nineteen sixty when there was a question, remember everybody went to bed thinking Richard Nixon is going to be our next president and you wake up and you find out no, it's JFK. And here you are, all these decades later. The Democrat operatives say, well, if the truth be known, we stuffed the box in Illinois and that's how we won. And they say it like as if it's you know, like it reminded me of Harry Reid. If you remember when Harry Reid he's in the well of the Senate and he says about John Kerry when they asked him, he said, well, you know that was bogus, all that stuff that you put on him about his taxes and everything. You remember, and he said, well, he didn't get elected, did he, And he kind of just smirked about it. Wait a minute, you violated the trust compact with the American people by suppressing the vote and interfering with the vote. How dare you? You're a senator and you do that. And it's so exceptible within the establishment and the deep state, I might say, throughout this bureaucracy in DC, it's disgusting. Scott,
49:07 and the American people have got to revolt against this. We do. We have to reclaim our country because if we don't, if we cannot restore integrity, electoral integrity, a cultural integrity. We really don't have a country. You know, politics is really downstream of the culture. It's supposed to be part of our battle is really to reclaim our culture. It's supposed to be Scott, I'm sorry. I mean, you know, I used to say that too. That's down But what's happened, if you notice it is it is the culture that's downstream politics. Politics is telling the culture how to behave instead of the other way around. Well, I think there's some back and forth. Clearly, the culture creates an environment, you know, and legitimize, uh, it can normalize uh ideas and uh and attitudes and behaviors that then uh get you know, get brought into political affirmation. Okay, for instance, we know what happened with you know, with gay marriage.
50:22 Right we before gay marriage was passed, we had, you know, we understood what marriage was. It was between a man and a woman. It was a that was a biblical marriage. Then we expanded the definition of marriage. Uh, and what have we had since then? We've had a continuing slide downhill. Now we're embracing you know, the LGBTQ agenda, which is really alarming. It goes beyond the transgender Uh it is you know, it is inclined to incorporate you know, what is it? Mail attracted being a man attracted what do they call pedophilia? And there's another term for it.
51:10 Yeah, I know, there's a fan. It's just yeah. But well, they see this is the next transition, the next iteration of where they're moving with this. And meanwhile along the way, the gender of womanhood has suffered, Scott because they can't even say what the definition of a woman is. I'll tell you what. We're gonna have to leave everybody with that thought against. Scott Powell has been our guest. He is the author of Rediscovering America.
