Allen Jackson NOW | Allen Jackson: Socialist Pitch | Allen Jackson Now | August 11, 2025

Good evening, and welcome to nashville.
00:00:05.130 --> 00:00:07.199
I'm alan jackson.
00:00:07.199 --> 00:00:08.733
It's been an unpredictable summer, weather wise,
00:00:08.733 --> 00:00:11.603
But that hasn't stopped the tourists
00:00:11.603 --> 00:00:13.338
From flocking to the nation's capital.
00:00:13.338 --> 00:00:15.740
The cherry blossoms brought big crowds in the spring.
00:00:15.740 --> 00:00:18.143
And when school let out,
00:00:18.143 --> 00:00:19.511
The tours of the white house, the air and space museum
00:00:19.511 --> 00:00:22.247
And the smithsonian, they filled up vast.
00:00:22.247 --> 00:00:25.350
But the big attraction is the u.s.
00:00:25.350 --> 00:00:27.018
Capitol.
00:00:27.018 --> 00:00:27.986
The great dome has been fully restored,
00:00:27.986 --> 00:00:30.055
And the big building has been busy for weeks.
00:00:30.055 --> 00:00:33.024
Rooms full of tourists,
00:00:33.024 --> 00:00:34.226
House and senate members
00:00:34.226 --> 00:00:35.527
And their staffs rushing through the hallways
00:00:35.527 --> 00:00:37.829
Trying to keep up with the new agenda of our president.
00:00:37.829 --> 00:00:41.366
It's democracy in action, as they say.
00:00:41.366 --> 00:00:44.202
But that democracy is also coming under attack
00:00:44.202 --> 00:00:47.405
With clear evidence right there in the halls of the capitol.
00:00:47.405 --> 00:00:51.343
Well, how does that happen?
00:00:51.343 --> 00:00:53.411
Well, the democrats invited an avowed socialist
00:00:53.411 --> 00:00:56.081
To come meet with them.
00:00:56.081 --> 00:00:57.616
And by all accounts, he got a hero's welcome.
00:00:57.616 --> 00:01:00.418
I'm talking about zoran mamdani,
00:01:00.418 --> 00:01:02.187
The socialist nominee for new york's mayor.
00:01:02.187 --> 00:01:05.423
The democrats not only listen, they took notes.
00:01:05.423 --> 00:01:08.226
They asked him what his secret was to such instant success.
00:01:08.226 --> 00:01:12.464
Socialism being celebrated right there in our own u.s.
00:01:12.464 --> 00:01:15.267
Capitol.
00:01:15.267 --> 00:01:16.201
Brought to you by one of the two major u.s.
00:01:16.201 --> 00:01:18.036
Political parties.
00:01:18.036 --> 00:01:19.671
And right there with the tourist from all parts of the country
00:01:19.671 --> 00:01:22.574
Who surely didn't go there
00:01:22.574 --> 00:01:23.909
To see the next stalin or fidel castro.
00:01:23.909 --> 00:01:27.579
Well,
00:01:27.812 --> 00:01:28.680
That brings us to our guest tonight,
00:01:28.680 --> 00:01:29.915
The man who's represented our country in politics and in war
00:01:29.915 --> 00:01:33.418
To protect our democracy from the great state of texas.
00:01:33.418 --> 00:01:36.688
I want to welcome back colonel allen west.
00:01:36.688 --> 00:01:39.224
Welcome back, sir.
00:01:39.224 --> 00:01:41.026
Pastor jackson, it's great to be with you.
00:01:41.026 --> 00:01:42.661
Thank you so much.
00:01:42.661 --> 00:01:44.062
Colonel west, can you imagine
00:01:44.696 --> 00:01:46.198
The families touring our great u.s.
00:01:46.198 --> 00:01:47.799
Capitol but witnessing a sales pitch on socialism instead?
00:01:47.799 --> 00:01:51.002
It seems unthinkable to me.
00:01:51.002 --> 00:01:53.305
Yeah, it absolutely does.
00:01:53.305 --> 00:01:54.506
And just imagine if you were a veteran
00:01:54.506 --> 00:01:56.808
Who was visiting the capitol at the time
00:01:56.808 --> 00:01:58.877
And you're a veteran from the cold war era
00:01:58.877 --> 00:02:01.680
When you stood alone,
00:02:01.680 --> 00:02:02.881
Freedom's ramparts against the old iron curtain,
00:02:02.881 --> 00:02:05.951
Against marxism
00:02:05.951 --> 00:02:07.152
And socialism and communism, you saw that wall come down
00:02:07.152 --> 00:02:10.088
Just so they could creep and come right here
00:02:10.088 --> 00:02:13.258
Into our nation's capital.
00:02:13.258 --> 00:02:14.459
I remember as a young lieutenant
00:02:14.459 --> 00:02:16.027
Going through checkpoint charlie and over to east berlin,
00:02:16.027 --> 00:02:19.731
And i see what it looks like on the other side of that wall.
00:02:19.731 --> 00:02:22.801
And it's not a pretty picture.
00:02:22.801 --> 00:02:24.302
But when we fail to learn our history,
00:02:24.302 --> 00:02:26.304
When we're not talking about the things
00:02:26.304 --> 00:02:28.506
That we have confronted in the past,
00:02:28.506 --> 00:02:30.375
This is what we allow to happen.
00:02:30.375 --> 00:02:31.710
And it was george santayana who once said, those
00:02:31.710 --> 00:02:34.312
Who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
00:02:34.312 --> 00:02:36.648
Well, you said that you heard a democratic congressman
00:02:37.682 --> 00:02:40.518
Who were treating him like some sort of a rock star,
00:02:40.518 --> 00:02:43.588
Asking for his tips
00:02:43.588 --> 00:02:44.723
On how to attract media to try to save their party.
00:02:44.723 --> 00:02:47.926
A party with an approval rating of less than 20%, i might add.
00:02:47.926 --> 00:02:51.763
Can you tell us what you heard?
00:02:51.763 --> 00:02:53.999
Sure.
00:02:53.999 --> 00:02:54.666
Well, i mean, he's just this
00:02:54.666 --> 00:02:55.767
Charismatic leader and all socialist, marxist,
00:02:55.767 --> 00:02:59.037
Communist leaders have been quite charismatic.
00:02:59.037 --> 00:03:01.773
You talked about fidel castro.
00:03:01.773 --> 00:03:03.708
And let's not forget che guevara
00:03:03.708 --> 00:03:05.677
And some of these other leaders that were very charismatic.
00:03:05.677 --> 00:03:08.747
They always promised
00:03:08.747 --> 00:03:09.948
Everything under the sun, because that's what those, forms
00:03:09.948 --> 00:03:13.618
And systems of governance is about, totalitarian control.
00:03:13.618 --> 00:03:16.955
But the thing is,
00:03:16.955 --> 00:03:18.623
I mean, he's talking about how great he is on social media.
00:03:18.623 --> 00:03:22.260
He's able to appeal to the young people.
00:03:22.260 --> 00:03:24.029
It's very simple.
00:03:24.029 --> 00:03:25.130
When you, as rush limbaugh once said, it's very hard
00:03:25.130 --> 00:03:28.166
To run against santa claus.
00:03:28.166 --> 00:03:29.367
And that's exactly what he is talking about.
00:03:29.367 --> 00:03:31.536
But eventually, just like,
00:03:31.536 --> 00:03:33.471
We have done with our children, pastor,
00:03:33.471 --> 00:03:35.573
We have told them not to touch the hot stove.
00:03:35.573 --> 00:03:38.076
If we touch this hot stove, we'r
00:03:38.076 --> 00:03:41.513
Well, it was reported that elizabeth warren
00:03:42.380 --> 00:03:44.449
Was praising them, donnie, for his rent control ideas.
00:03:44.449 --> 00:03:47.719
She's had a long habit of criticizing capitalism.
00:03:47.719 --> 00:03:50.322
It seems to me. is that your perspective?
00:03:50.322 --> 00:03:53.291
Yeah. absolutely. right.
00:03:53.291 --> 00:03:54.359
I mean, you have to understand
00:03:54.359 --> 00:03:55.593
That marxism branches off into two different philosophies.
00:03:55.593 --> 00:03:59.097
There's socialism, which is the economic model
00:03:59.097 --> 00:04:01.833
Which talks about wealth redistribution.
00:04:01.833 --> 00:04:04.235
It talks about,
00:04:04.235 --> 00:04:05.337
Nationalizing the means of production,
00:04:05.337 --> 00:04:07.706
Economic means of production,
00:04:07.706 --> 00:04:09.341
The creation of a welfare nanny state,
00:04:09.341 --> 00:04:11.609
Social egalitarianism, and, of course, secular humanism.
00:04:11.609 --> 00:04:14.546
But that leads to the societal model, which is communism.
00:04:14.546 --> 00:04:17.615
And so when you talk about rent control, guess what happens?
00:04:17.615 --> 00:04:21.353
Why should anyone want to go in and improve
00:04:21.353 --> 00:04:24.389
Their rental property
00:04:24.389 --> 00:04:26.091
In their building, if they know that they
00:04:26.091 --> 00:04:27.926
Are locked in by government decree
00:04:27.926 --> 00:04:30.228
To a certain amount that they can,
00:04:30.228 --> 00:04:32.330
You know, charge for people to be there.
00:04:32.330 --> 00:04:34.232
So just the same as i saw in east berlin,
00:04:34.232 --> 00:04:36.401
You're going to see rundown buildings
00:04:36.401 --> 00:04:37.802
That let us never forget
00:04:37.802 --> 00:04:39.237
A place called cabrini green in chicago,
00:04:39.237 --> 00:04:41.773
Which ended up being torn down because of the decrepit
00:04:41.773 --> 00:04:44.809
And deplorable conditions that it had become.
00:04:44.809 --> 00:04:48.480
Well, there's another thing i'd like to get you to comment on.
00:04:49.647 --> 00:04:52.317
A few thousand feet from
00:04:52.317 --> 00:04:53.518
The capital is the big train station, union station.
00:04:53.518 --> 00:04:56.888
That's where mom, donnie's islamic
00:04:56.888 --> 00:04:58.456
Jihadist friends tore down the u.s.
00:04:58.456 --> 00:05:00.358
Flag and put up the flag of hamas.
00:05:00.358 --> 00:05:02.994
Is that who is followers are rooting for?
00:05:02.994 --> 00:05:05.897
Yes, absolutely.
00:05:05.897 --> 00:05:06.998
So, i mean, they want to see this
00:05:06.998 --> 00:05:09.167
Anti-semitic islamic jihadis, become the mayor
00:05:09.167 --> 00:05:13.004
Of the most popular city in the united states of america,
00:05:13.004 --> 00:05:16.641
The largest city, and that is asian-american new york city.
00:05:16.641 --> 00:05:19.177
And just think about this.
00:05:19.177 --> 00:05:20.445
Here is someone that praises hamas, supports
00:05:20.445 --> 00:05:23.114
Hamas, talked about globalization of the intifada,
00:05:23.114 --> 00:05:26.251
When it was not too long ago, a september 11th of the 2001
00:05:26.251 --> 00:05:29.487
Islamic jihadis took down those two world trade towers.
00:05:29.487 --> 00:05:33.224
But how quickly we have forgotten,
00:05:33.224 --> 00:05:35.593
And we're about to elevate him into a position of incredible
00:05:35.593 --> 00:05:39.230
Responsibility and leadership.
00:05:39.230 --> 00:05:41.266
So he's going to win this election right now.
00:05:41.266 --> 00:05:43.701
When you look at the numbers
00:05:43.701 --> 00:05:44.969
And i kind of believe
00:05:44.969 --> 00:05:45.970
That we need to experience this so that we never
00:05:45.970 --> 00:05:48.506
Allow it to take root.
00:05:48.506 --> 00:05:50.108
Well, colonel west, i hope
00:05:50.675 --> 00:05:51.876
You'll stay with us for another segment.
00:05:51.876 --> 00:05:53.311
We've got more to discuss.
00:05:53.311 --> 00:05:55.647
In the meantime, you can jump
00:05:55.647 --> 00:05:57.182
On this conversation by going to aj now.com.
00:05:57.182 --> 00:06:00.485
Just send me an email
00:06:00.485 --> 00:06:01.653
Or share the links from previous shows with your friends.
00:06:01.653 --> 00:06:04.589
We want to reach as many people as possible.
00:06:04.589 --> 00:06:06.624
We can grow the truth with your help.
00:06:06.624 --> 00:06:09.027
Well, i'll be back with colonel west in just a moment.
00:06:09.027 --> 00:06:18.008
Well, i'll be back with colonel west in just a moment.
00:06:18.008 --> 00:06:22.810
We're back now with colonel allen west.
00:06:23.611 --> 00:06:26.147
He's the chairman of the dallas county gop and the executive
00:06:26.147 --> 00:06:29.550
Director of the american constitutional rights union.
00:06:29.550 --> 00:06:33.254
Colonel west, you come from a military family.
00:06:33.254 --> 00:06:35.690
Not just your parents, but your brother as well.
00:06:35.690 --> 00:06:38.326
And you spent more than 20 years defending our country.
00:06:38.326 --> 00:06:41.529
President trump takes
00:06:41.529 --> 00:06:42.663
Pride in saying how many wars he's stopped already.
00:06:42.663 --> 00:06:45.900
And he's made the point repeatedly.
00:06:45.900 --> 00:06:48.169
Listen to his remarks.
00:06:48.169 --> 00:06:49.504
We put out fires all over the world.
00:06:50.271 --> 00:06:52.640
We did one yesterday.
00:06:52.640 --> 00:06:53.908
You know, we stopped the war, but we stopped about five wars.
00:06:53.908 --> 00:06:58.045
You know all that in just six months.
00:06:58.846 --> 00:07:01.182
He talks about the lives saved, soldiers and citizens.
00:07:01.182 --> 00:07:04.585
As any commander in chief
00:07:04.585 --> 00:07:05.720
Been able to stop so many in such a short time.
00:07:05.720 --> 00:07:08.890
No, i don't think so.
00:07:09.390 --> 00:07:10.558
This has been a remarkable 6 to 7 months.
00:07:10.558 --> 00:07:13.461
It has reshaped presidential politics going forward.
00:07:13.461 --> 00:07:17.031
And when you this is what strong leadership looks like.
00:07:17.031 --> 00:07:19.600
This is when you get back to ronald reagan's
00:07:19.600 --> 00:07:21.636
Premise of peace through strength.
00:07:21.636 --> 00:07:23.437
This is when you have resolute leadership resolve.
00:07:23.437 --> 00:07:26.541
And in the white house
00:07:26.541 --> 00:07:27.975
That understands
00:07:27.975 --> 00:07:29.176
How to leverage the power of the united states of america.
00:07:29.176 --> 00:07:31.879
It is not just always about dropping bombs.
00:07:31.879 --> 00:07:34.448
Sometimes you have to do that in the case of iran
00:07:34.448 --> 00:07:36.450
With their nuclear capability.
00:07:36.450 --> 00:07:38.119
But it is about leveraging your energy security
00:07:38.119 --> 00:07:40.288
And your energy prowess and also your economic strength,
00:07:40.288 --> 00:07:43.524
And that you have seen him do that
00:07:43.524 --> 00:07:45.159
Through the terrorists,
00:07:45.159 --> 00:07:46.460
The threats of terrorists, and the negotiations
00:07:46.460 --> 00:07:48.396
To get better trade deals with this country.
00:07:48.396 --> 00:07:50.331
So without a doubt,
00:07:50.331 --> 00:07:51.599
The world is a lot more of a peaceful place
00:07:51.599 --> 00:07:53.634
Because we have a strong leader in the white house.
00:07:53.634 --> 00:07:56.504
Well, the pentagon says military enrollment is up
00:07:56.504 --> 00:07:58.940
Across the board.
00:07:58.940 --> 00:08:00.174
Why do you think that is?
00:08:00.174 --> 00:08:02.043
What is very simple.
00:08:02.043 --> 00:08:03.044
I mean, no one wants to join
00:08:03.044 --> 00:08:04.812
A military where they're focused on, you know, transgenderism.
00:08:04.812 --> 00:08:08.849
I, you know, and all of these other drag queens
00:08:08.849 --> 00:08:12.420
Shows on military bases,
00:08:12.420 --> 00:08:14.188
And even more so they don't want to have
00:08:14.188 --> 00:08:15.823
A commander in chief to push them.
00:08:15.823 --> 00:08:17.191
And then untenable situation like we saw in, in afghanistan.
00:08:17.191 --> 00:08:22.430
And no one take any type of responsibility for that action.
00:08:22.430 --> 00:08:25.399
And and furthermore,
00:08:25.399 --> 00:08:26.500
When those 13 marines, soldiers and sailors come back
00:08:26.500 --> 00:08:30.271
For their ramp ceremony,
00:08:30.271 --> 00:08:31.639
You have a commander in chief who was checking his watch.
00:08:31.639 --> 00:08:34.075
So who wants to join a military like that?
00:08:34.075 --> 00:08:36.210
And so now that we have a military that is focused on the,
00:08:36.210 --> 00:08:39.880
You know, right and true
00:08:39.880 --> 00:08:40.881
Competencies and capabilities of our military
00:08:40.881 --> 00:08:43.417
Going out and striking our enemy,
00:08:43.417 --> 00:08:45.453
But not getting into occupation style warfare.
00:08:45.453 --> 00:08:48.189
This is what the men and women want.
00:08:48.189 --> 00:08:50.358
They want to be told, here's your mission.
00:08:50.358 --> 00:08:52.126
Here's your task and purpose.
00:08:52.126 --> 00:08:53.461
Go execute it and get back home.
00:08:53.461 --> 00:08:56.197
Well, for all the success,
00:08:56.764 --> 00:08:58.199
He seems to have been stymied a bit by russia and ukraine.
00:08:58.199 --> 00:09:01.969
And he's particularly fed up with putin.
00:09:01.969 --> 00:09:04.505
The european union has been approved to buy
00:09:04.505 --> 00:09:06.607
American arms now.
00:09:06.607 --> 00:09:07.675
But is there anything else
00:09:07.675 --> 00:09:08.843
You think he should do to stop the bleeding?
00:09:08.843 --> 00:09:11.912
Yeah.
00:09:11.912 --> 00:09:12.313
I think one
00:09:12.313 --> 00:09:13.547
Of the most important things is to restore our energy program
00:09:13.547 --> 00:09:16.484
And our export of liquefied natural gas.
00:09:16.484 --> 00:09:19.487
You saw the european union saying
00:09:19.487 --> 00:09:21.255
That they are going to buy more of our energy resources,
00:09:21.255 --> 00:09:23.991
And that really does put the kibosh on vladimir putin,
00:09:23.991 --> 00:09:27.361
Because that's the means by which he supports himself.
00:09:27.361 --> 00:09:29.630
But then also,
00:09:29.630 --> 00:09:30.631
We have to look at how we can leverage
00:09:30.631 --> 00:09:32.500
Our economy and leverage trade against china,
00:09:32.500 --> 00:09:35.102
Because the trade imbalance,
00:09:35.102 --> 00:09:36.437
The trade deficit that they have over us,
00:09:36.437 --> 00:09:39.040
Without a doubt,
00:09:39.040 --> 00:09:39.740
They're using that to
00:09:39.740 --> 00:09:40.975
Fund russia and their exports and also fund the north korean
00:09:40.975 --> 00:09:44.445
Military to be able to go in and fight for russia in ukraine.
00:09:44.445 --> 00:09:47.848
So, we have to look at also the iranians
00:09:47.848 --> 00:09:50.851
And what they're able to do sending drones to russia.
00:09:50.851 --> 00:09:53.421
So it's a total, effect that we see.
00:09:53.421 --> 00:09:56.390
And i think the president trump is on the right side
00:09:56.390 --> 00:09:58.793
Looking at our energy strength, our economic strength,
00:09:58.793 --> 00:10:01.462
And really isolating these countries
00:10:01.462 --> 00:10:03.464
From being able to support themselves, each other.
00:10:03.464 --> 00:10:06.434
Well, i want to ask about china.
00:10:06.434 --> 00:10:08.202
You know,
00:10:08.202 --> 00:10:08.703
They're suffering
00:10:08.703 --> 00:10:09.270
An economic slowdown,
00:10:09.270 --> 00:10:10.371
But they're spending big on their military.
00:10:10.371 --> 00:10:12.973
What does that tell you about what they might be up to?
00:10:12.973 --> 00:10:16.010
Well, it tells you everything.
00:10:16.010 --> 00:10:17.445
And it was not too long ago that china did not have a single
00:10:17.445 --> 00:10:21.248
Aircraft carrier.
00:10:21.248 --> 00:10:22.717
I think now they're up to three aircraft carriers.
00:10:22.717 --> 00:10:24.952
And again, this is what happens
00:10:24.952 --> 00:10:26.654
When you allow them to insert themselves
00:10:26.654 --> 00:10:28.989
Into the world economic community
00:10:28.989 --> 00:10:30.891
And how such gross trade imbalances,
00:10:30.891 --> 00:10:33.494
Their muscle up a tic.
00:10:33.494 --> 00:10:34.995
And they have taken the blood
00:10:34.995 --> 00:10:36.297
That they have out of the world economic, system.
00:10:36.297 --> 00:10:40.101
And they are using it to expand
00:10:40.101 --> 00:10:41.569
Their global hegemonic demands, designs.
00:10:41.569 --> 00:10:44.572
And it hurts my heart to say this bastard jackson.
00:10:44.572 --> 00:10:46.640
But the means by which you extend
00:10:46.640 --> 00:10:48.442
The power of a nation is not to a strong
00:10:48.442 --> 00:10:50.478
Arm, it to a strong navy.
00:10:50.478 --> 00:10:51.946
And that's exactly why we see china invest in its their
00:10:51.946 --> 00:10:54.381
Maritime forces.
00:10:54.381 --> 00:10:56.217
What about all the chinese military men
00:10:56.217 --> 00:10:58.753
That came into our nation when we had the open border?
00:10:58.753 --> 00:11:01.489
Do you know much about that.
00:11:02.089 --> 00:11:03.924
Huge concern when you're talking about 25 to 30,000?
00:11:03.924 --> 00:11:07.928
That's the estimate of
00:11:07.928 --> 00:11:09.029
Single military age males coming in here from china.
00:11:09.029 --> 00:11:11.632
That's the equivalent
00:11:11.632 --> 00:11:12.600
Of about two united states army divisions.
00:11:12.600 --> 00:11:16.036
We have to be really concerned about that type of force
00:11:16.036 --> 00:11:19.607
That is here
00:11:19.607 --> 00:11:20.708
On top of the criminal illegal immigrants that we have
00:11:20.708 --> 00:11:23.310
And all the other terrorist cells that could be existing.
00:11:23.310 --> 00:11:26.280
We know that joe biden released, about 2000, maybe 2500
00:11:26.280 --> 00:11:31.018
Special interest aliens from iran back into our society.
00:11:31.018 --> 00:11:35.256
So we have got a lot of cleanup to do within the borders
00:11:35.256 --> 00:11:38.159
Of the united states of america.
00:11:38.159 --> 00:11:39.593
Now that we have secured our border.
00:11:39.593 --> 00:11:42.363
With the border secure.
00:11:42.363 --> 00:11:43.731
How are things in texas?
00:11:43.731 --> 00:11:46.066
It's a lot better.
00:11:46.066 --> 00:11:47.234
I've been down to the border, down.
00:11:47.234 --> 00:11:49.570
And, kinney county, which is bracketed filled.
00:11:49.570 --> 00:11:51.906
Texas in between eagle pass and del rio,
00:11:51.906 --> 00:11:54.241
Went to the bridge there and del rio, texas,
00:11:54.241 --> 00:11:56.977
Where we saw tens of thousands of people
00:11:56.977 --> 00:11:59.146
Camping out under that bridge.
00:11:59.146 --> 00:12:00.748
It's actually boring down there right now.
00:12:00.748 --> 00:12:02.950
Pastor jackson and a lot of the law
00:12:02.950 --> 00:12:04.852
Enforcement are very happy and appreciative of that.
00:12:04.852 --> 00:12:07.254
But the great thing is
00:12:07.254 --> 00:12:08.022
The kids are able
00:12:08.022 --> 00:12:08.722
To go back out and play
00:12:08.722 --> 00:12:10.357
And not have to worry about high speed chases
00:12:10.357 --> 00:12:12.493
And these, jump outs
00:12:12.493 --> 00:12:14.061
Where they could be kidnaped by illegal immigrants.
00:12:14.061 --> 00:12:17.131
Well, that's one kind of boring we can all celebrate.
00:12:17.131 --> 00:12:20.267
You know, texas been in the news this week
00:12:20.267 --> 00:12:22.169
For the redistricting battle that's taking place.
00:12:22.169 --> 00:12:25.573
And some of the democrats in the nation are screaming
00:12:25.573 --> 00:12:29.076
It's foul play.
00:12:29.076 --> 00:12:30.277
But it seems to me that it's business as usual in politics.
00:12:30.277 --> 00:12:33.514
Can you help us understand a bit?
00:12:33.514 --> 00:12:35.382
Yeah, sure.
00:12:35.382 --> 00:12:36.417
You know, i made a little note, some notes here.
00:12:36.417 --> 00:12:38.419
Here are the blue states with absolutely no republican
00:12:38.419 --> 00:12:41.121
Congressional representation.
00:12:41.121 --> 00:12:42.723
Massachusetts.
00:12:42.723 --> 00:12:43.858
Where texas state senators just fled to rhode island,
00:12:43.858 --> 00:12:46.627
Vermont, new hampshire, hawaii,
00:12:46.627 --> 00:12:48.162
New mexico, connecticut, delaware.
00:12:48.162 --> 00:12:50.130
Here are the blue states with just one,
00:12:50.130 --> 00:12:52.366
Congressional house district.
00:12:52.366 --> 00:12:53.500
Maryland, oregon and maine.
00:12:53.500 --> 00:12:55.202
Here are the blue states that have 2
00:12:55.202 --> 00:12:56.470
To 5 republican house seats.
00:12:56.470 --> 00:12:58.205
That's colorado, minnesota, illinois,
00:12:58.205 --> 00:13:00.241
Where the texas house democrats fled virginia, new jersey
00:13:00.241 --> 00:13:03.744
And california, new york and not too far behind.
00:13:03.744 --> 00:13:06.313
What the democrats
00:13:06.313 --> 00:13:07.281
Are upset about is that what they have been
00:13:07.281 --> 00:13:08.983
Doing for so long is being done to them.
00:13:08.983 --> 00:13:11.018
Anytime that they're doing something,
00:13:11.018 --> 00:13:12.453
They think that they're advocating democracy
00:13:12.453 --> 00:13:14.421
When you don't agree with them.
00:13:14.421 --> 00:13:15.689
Now all of a sudden you're a, you're an enemy of democracy.
00:13:15.689 --> 00:13:19.460
This is the same party that also they want to make puerto rico
00:13:19.460 --> 00:13:22.730
And the district of columbia states.
00:13:22.730 --> 00:13:24.398
So why
00:13:24.398 --> 00:13:25.366
They can get more congressional representing
00:13:25.366 --> 00:13:27.067
They want to pack the supreme court.
00:13:27.067 --> 00:13:29.036
This is something that has to end.
00:13:29.036 --> 00:13:30.604
They cannot gerrymander anymore in these blue states.
00:13:30.604 --> 00:13:34.375
Well, i'd like to ask one more question.
00:13:35.209 --> 00:13:37.511
President trump
00:13:37.511 --> 00:13:38.612
Has certainly turned up the heat on the dc swamp,
00:13:38.612 --> 00:13:42.549
But the margins on capitol hill are slim.
00:13:42.549 --> 00:13:45.185
So was the dallas county republican chairman.
00:13:45.185 --> 00:13:47.721
How does all this rapid success line up with the midterms
00:13:47.721 --> 00:13:50.391
Next year?
00:13:50.391 --> 00:13:51.759
I think without a doubt, you're going to see a lot of success
00:13:51.759 --> 00:13:54.461
For republicans,
00:13:54.461 --> 00:13:55.596
And especially
00:13:55.596 --> 00:13:56.730
If you have zoran madani winning the mayoral election
00:13:56.730 --> 00:14:00.167
In new york city, the democrat party owns him.
00:14:00.167 --> 00:14:02.836
The same with the,
00:14:02.836 --> 00:14:03.938
Mayoral candidate in minneapolis, minnesota, mr.
00:14:03.938 --> 00:14:06.974
Omar forte, who is also another socialist marxist.
00:14:06.974 --> 00:14:10.244
If that's the direction they're going to go in.
00:14:10.244 --> 00:14:12.680
They obviously didn't get the memo from november 2024.
00:14:12.680 --> 00:14:16.817
Well, colonel allen west, we salute you for your service
00:14:16.817 --> 00:14:19.520
To this country.
00:14:19.520 --> 00:14:20.788
Please come back again or come over to nashville.
00:14:20.788 --> 00:14:23.190
We'll have you here on the set.
00:14:23.190 --> 00:14:24.758
We'll get you some great food and even some good music.
00:14:24.758 --> 00:14:26.894
When the show's over.
00:14:26.894 --> 00:14:28.162
Yes, sir. good. all rockets up.
00:14:28.162 --> 00:14:29.863
Oh, right, sir.
00:14:29.863 --> 00:14:31.465
In a moment.
00:14:31.799 --> 00:14:32.766
Hope is here.
00:14:32.766 --> 00:14:33.968
We'll go through it together right after this next break.
00:14:33.968 --> 00:14:36.437
Stay with us.
00:14:36.437 --> 00:14:43.009
Stay with us.
00:14:43.009 --> 00:14:47.647
Before the islamic revolution,
00:14:48.247 --> 00:14:50.049
Iran was a modern, thriving society.
00:14:50.049 --> 00:14:53.453
Its cities were vibrant.
00:14:53.453 --> 00:14:54.487
It was a hub of art, education and open commerce.
00:14:54.487 --> 00:14:57.690
Western alliances, including with israel,
00:14:57.690 --> 00:15:00.293
Brought economic opportunity and technological advancement.
00:15:00.293 --> 00:15:04.263
Then the islamic revolution shattered that reality.
00:15:04.263 --> 00:15:07.567
Evil leaders replaced liberty with repression.
00:15:07.567 --> 00:15:10.436
They silenced any dissent.
00:15:10.436 --> 00:15:12.672
I wonder what would the people of iran in the 1970s
00:15:12.672 --> 00:15:15.742
Say today,
00:15:15.742 --> 00:15:17.043
Knowing what iran has turned
00:15:17.043 --> 00:15:18.277
Into under this cruel and oppressive regime?
00:15:18.277 --> 00:15:21.447
Were they seduced by the notion of peaceful islam?
00:15:21.447 --> 00:15:24.584
As it's frequently described
00:15:24.584 --> 00:15:25.985
To us across the world, where it's enforced,
00:15:25.985 --> 00:15:28.855
Where it represents consistently authoritarian,
00:15:28.855 --> 00:15:31.391
Dictatorial, brutal regimes of violence,
00:15:31.391 --> 00:15:34.627
Women are not treated anywhere remotely as equals.
00:15:34.627 --> 00:15:37.463
Citizens are overburdened by taxes.
00:15:37.463 --> 00:15:39.599
Its economic servitude.
00:15:39.599 --> 00:15:42.101
You may wonder, what does all of this
00:15:42.101 --> 00:15:43.569
Have to do with us here in america?
00:15:43.569 --> 00:15:46.172
We are being willfully ignorant if we can't see it begin
00:15:46.172 --> 00:15:49.175
To take shape
00:15:49.175 --> 00:15:50.410
In the minds of young people across our university campuses.
00:15:50.410 --> 00:15:54.147
Well, they're being taught the virtues of socialism
00:15:54.147 --> 00:15:56.315
And anti-semitic violent expressions are celebrated.
00:15:56.315 --> 00:15:59.218
Well, now the mayoral candidate from new york
00:16:00.153 --> 00:16:02.588
Is a self-proclaimed socialist,
00:16:02.588 --> 00:16:04.891
And he's being paraded through the halls of d.c.,
00:16:04.891 --> 00:16:07.360
Celebrated by influential lawmakers.
00:16:07.360 --> 00:16:10.296
This is the same man who, in the recent past,
00:16:10.296 --> 00:16:12.799
Has condemned the police
00:16:12.799 --> 00:16:14.434
And defended the phrase globalize the intifada.
00:16:14.434 --> 00:16:18.838
He's been given multiple opportunities to walk that back
00:16:18.838 --> 00:16:21.274
And condemn the anti-semitic phrase he's refused.
00:16:21.274 --> 00:16:24.977
Why is that?
00:16:25.311 --> 00:16:26.846
Well, globalize the intifada is a declaration of war
00:16:26.846 --> 00:16:29.916
On anyone who refuses to bow before islam's death cult.
00:16:29.916 --> 00:16:33.853
It's a globalized campaign of hate whose central promise
00:16:33.853 --> 00:16:37.623
Is not to build a better future for palestine,
00:16:37.623 --> 00:16:40.593
But to bury the jews.
00:16:40.593 --> 00:16:42.562
And as the church, we're struggling
00:16:42.562 --> 00:16:44.197
To understand how we should respond.
00:16:44.197 --> 00:16:46.199
Should we talk about it?
00:16:46.199 --> 00:16:47.233
Is it appropriate,
00:16:47.233 --> 00:16:48.835
If you dare to mention any of the observable facts
00:16:48.835 --> 00:16:51.304
Which i just recited to you in the public square?
00:16:51.304 --> 00:16:53.940
You're frequently shouted down as being racist or xenophobic.
00:16:53.940 --> 00:16:57.310
We cannot shrink back.
00:16:57.777 --> 00:16:59.412
Don't be silent in the face of ungodliness.
00:16:59.412 --> 00:17:02.348
Don't lose your voice around things that you know is wrong.
00:17:02.348 --> 00:17:05.685
I believe with all of my heart
00:17:05.685 --> 00:17:06.986
That christianity is the hope of humanity.
00:17:06.986 --> 00:17:09.489
So when your sphere of influence be the voice of truth
00:17:09.489 --> 00:17:12.024
In this season of cultural change,
00:17:12.024 --> 00:17:14.193
It will make a difference.
00:17:14.193 --> 00:17:15.962
We'll be right back with your emails.
00:17:15.962 --> 00:17:25.001
We'll be right back with your emails.
00:17:25.001 --> 00:17:28.876
Thank you for spending a few minutes of your day with us.
00:17:29.977 --> 00:17:33.080
Just a reminder, you can go to aj now.com.
00:17:33.080 --> 00:17:35.682
You can send us an email.
00:17:35.682 --> 00:17:36.917
You can share a link of your favorite program with a friend.
00:17:36.917 --> 00:17:40.187
The more who watch, the better for all of us.
00:17:40.187 --> 00:17:43.457
Don be from virginia.
00:17:43.457 --> 00:17:45.392
My question
00:17:45.392 --> 00:17:46.193
Do you think it's wise for the usa
00:17:46.193 --> 00:17:47.828
To be selling military equipment to countries like the uk,
00:17:47.828 --> 00:17:51.632
Who've allowed their borders to be overrun by muslims?
00:17:51.632 --> 00:17:54.168
Could this be putting weapons
00:17:54.168 --> 00:17:55.335
In the hands of those who want to harm us?
00:17:55.335 --> 00:17:57.971
It's an interesting question, don.
00:17:57.971 --> 00:17:59.907
You know,
00:17:59.907 --> 00:18:01.108
I think the countries that are our allies, our nato allies,
00:18:01.108 --> 00:18:03.844
We have a responsibility to do anything we can
00:18:03.844 --> 00:18:06.246
To strengthen them.
00:18:06.246 --> 00:18:07.447
And if we can sell them arms, that has a benefit for us.
00:18:07.447 --> 00:18:10.284
So i think it probably is a positive step.
00:18:10.284 --> 00:18:12.819
But there is a concern about the demographics of europe.
00:18:12.819 --> 00:18:17.191
They are shifting rapidly, and there's some serious question
00:18:17.191 --> 00:18:20.227
About whether or not that can even be reversed.
00:18:20.227 --> 00:18:22.362
Jay chambers and gina both emailed the same question.
00:18:23.430 --> 00:18:26.700
Thank you for interviewing ambassador mike huckabee.
00:18:26.700 --> 00:18:29.603
He tells the truth about the fake media.
00:18:29.603 --> 00:18:31.538
We wish others realized they lie.
00:18:31.538 --> 00:18:34.208
We miss seeing him on tv right before you.
00:18:34.208 --> 00:18:36.577
His wit and humor are surely missed.
00:18:36.577 --> 00:18:39.580
Well, i miss seeing him on tv as well.
00:18:39.580 --> 00:18:42.282
I especially miss that pink sport coat he used to wear.
00:18:42.282 --> 00:18:45.419
But he is doing some good work in israel and the middle east.
00:18:45.419 --> 00:18:49.823
He stepped into a very difficult
00:18:49.823 --> 00:18:51.425
Place in a very difficult season.
00:18:51.425 --> 00:18:53.260
I hope you will remember him in your prayers.
00:18:53.260 --> 00:18:55.762
I have an israeli friend
00:18:55.762 --> 00:18:56.964
Who knew him when he was running for the presidency here,
00:18:56.964 --> 00:19:00.167
And he said, mike huckabee won't be president.
00:19:00.167 --> 00:19:02.002
He's too honest of a man.
00:19:02.002 --> 00:19:04.104
That's a compliment. and he is.
00:19:04.104 --> 00:19:06.373
One viewer on youtube complimented
00:19:07.107 --> 00:19:08.942
Pastor jackson crushing some truth capsules like always.
00:19:08.942 --> 00:19:12.646
Thank you for your insight and knowledge.
00:19:12.646 --> 00:19:15.249
Well, i'm an advocate for the truth.
00:19:15.249 --> 00:19:16.650
I think it brings freedom and hope to our future,
00:19:16.650 --> 00:19:19.319
And we're glad to add
00:19:19.319 --> 00:19:20.320
A bit of momentum to that with our program.
00:19:20.320 --> 00:19:23.523
And finally, jones from kentucky
00:19:24.157 --> 00:19:25.659
Emailed what's going on with central bank digital currency?
00:19:25.659 --> 00:19:29.496
Do the american voters have a choice?
00:19:29.496 --> 00:19:32.266
Well, john, absolutely.
00:19:32.266 --> 00:19:33.600
The american voters have a choice.
00:19:33.600 --> 00:19:35.869
You know, we have been lethargic,
00:19:35.869 --> 00:19:37.404
Disinterested, ambivalent for too long.
00:19:37.404 --> 00:19:41.008
And i pray one of the things that is happening in this season
00:19:41.008 --> 00:19:44.611
Is that we're awakening to our responsibilities
00:19:44.611 --> 00:19:47.247
To protect the liberties and freedoms that we've inherited.
00:19:47.247 --> 00:19:50.517
It only one takes one generation for that to be lost.
00:19:50.517 --> 00:19:53.987
And we have been distracted by our pursuit of pleasure
00:19:53.987 --> 00:19:57.291
And comfort and convenience.
00:19:57.291 --> 00:19:58.959
But perhaps god in his mercy is awakening us,
00:19:58.959 --> 00:20:02.296
And we'll begin to use our voices again
00:20:02.296 --> 00:20:04.231
To express our determination to see the truth upheld.
00:20:04.231 --> 00:20:08.235
It'll bring liberty and for for it'll bring liberty
00:20:08.235 --> 00:20:10.971
And freedom to all of us.
00:20:10.971 --> 00:20:12.606
Easy for me to say.
00:20:12.606 --> 00:20:14.441
It is always an honor to spend a few minutes of our day
00:20:14.441 --> 00:20:17.077
With you.
00:20:17.077 --> 00:20:18.211
I'm alan jackson, and you have a wonderful evening.
00:20:18.211 --> 00:20:18.211
