Stakelbeck Tonight | Erick Stakelbeck: Who’s Really Behind This? | Stakelbeck Tonight | February 9, 2026
- Welcome to stakelbeck tonight.
- 00:00:03.560 --> 00:00:04.961
- I'm erick stakelbeck.
- 00:00:04.961 --> 00:00:06.062
- And the people have spoken.
- 00:00:06.062 --> 00:00:08.498
- The nfl decided to go with woke left wing performer bad bunny
- 00:00:08.498 --> 00:00:13.136
- As he entertainment during last night's
- 00:00:13.136 --> 00:00:14.804
- Super bowl halftime show.
- 00:00:14.804 --> 00:00:16.673
- Now bad bunny is a very vocal anti ice pro, open borders
- 00:00:16.673 --> 00:00:22.212
- Pro lgbtq advocate who wears his politics on his sleeve.
- 00:00:22.212 --> 00:00:27.584
- So his selection by the nfl
- 00:00:27.584 --> 00:00:29.452
- Was extremely divisive, and to many, it seemed like
- 00:00:29.452 --> 00:00:32.822
- An intentional insult to the league's core audience.
- 00:00:32.822 --> 00:00:36.392
- Unfortunately for the nfl and its bottom line,
- 00:00:36.392 --> 00:00:39.162
- People have remote controls.
- 00:00:39.162 --> 00:00:41.598
- They have iphones and ipads, so if they don't like
- 00:00:41.598 --> 00:00:45.135
- Something, they can tune out and tune out.
- 00:00:45.135 --> 00:00:48.304
- They did in huge numbers.
- 00:00:48.304 --> 00:00:50.473
- Instead of seeing through bad
- 00:00:50.473 --> 00:00:51.841
- Bunny's performance, which was entirely in spanish
- 00:00:51.841 --> 00:00:54.944
- And included people waving foreign flags, women
- 00:00:54.944 --> 00:00:58.081
- Twerking, and two men grinding on each other.
- 00:00:58.081 --> 00:01:01.384
- Tens of millions of americans instead watched.
- 00:01:01.384 --> 00:01:04.320
- Turning point usa's all american halftime show.
- 00:01:04.320 --> 00:01:07.957
- The program aired live here
- 00:01:07.957 --> 00:01:09.492
- On tbn and elsewhere, and the numbers are staggering.
- 00:01:09.492 --> 00:01:13.496
- At least 6.1 million people watched live on youtube,
- 00:01:13.496 --> 00:01:18.101
- Making it
- 00:01:18.101 --> 00:01:19.302
- The number two live streaming event in youtube history.
- 00:01:19.302 --> 00:01:22.605
- And that's just youtube. all told.
- 00:01:22.605 --> 00:01:24.841
- Turning point believes the final tally may be 40,
- 00:01:24.841 --> 00:01:28.244
- Even 50 million people combined
- 00:01:28.244 --> 00:01:31.347
- Who watch the live stream across various outlets.
- 00:01:31.347 --> 00:01:34.517
- They saw a show that focused on faith,
- 00:01:34.517 --> 00:01:37.620
- Family and freedom, but which was not political at all.
- 00:01:37.620 --> 00:01:41.925
- It did, however, get spiritual.
- 00:01:41.925 --> 00:01:44.661
- Headliner kid rock opened with one of his older songs from 1998
- 00:01:44.661 --> 00:01:48.831
- That had some rough lyrics and reflected his old life.
- 00:01:48.831 --> 00:01:52.101
- But he closed with another song in which he used his real name,
- 00:01:52.101 --> 00:01:56.005
- Robert ritchie, and saying, quote,
- 00:01:56.005 --> 00:01:58.441
- There's a book
- 00:01:58.441 --> 00:01:59.475
- That's sitting in your house somewhere
- 00:01:59.475 --> 00:02:01.277
- That could use some dusting off.
- 00:02:01.277 --> 00:02:03.479
- There's a man that died for all our sins
- 00:02:03.479 --> 00:02:06.216
- Hanging from the cross.
- 00:02:06.216 --> 00:02:07.850
- You can give your life to jesus
- 00:02:07.850 --> 00:02:10.486
- And he'll give you a second chance till you can't.
- 00:02:10.486 --> 00:02:14.190
- Amen. folks.
- 00:02:14.524 --> 00:02:15.792
- That contrast between the two songs really symbolized
- 00:02:15.792 --> 00:02:19.796
- The journey kid rock has been on these past
- 00:02:19.796 --> 00:02:22.765
- Few years, as he's drawn closer to jesus over time.
- 00:02:22.765 --> 00:02:27.203
- The nfl, by the way, seems to realize that
- 00:02:27.203 --> 00:02:29.739
- They may have fumbled their halftime show badly.
- 00:02:29.739 --> 00:02:33.509
- Here's turning point
- 00:02:33.509 --> 00:02:34.544
- Usa contributors benny johnson and jack posobiec.
- 00:02:34.544 --> 00:02:38.147
- The entertainment industry and the advertisers
- 00:02:38.147 --> 00:02:40.850
- Are very, very worried about this.
- 00:02:40.850 --> 00:02:43.886
- And clint maloney had a source inside nfl networks
- 00:02:43.886 --> 00:02:47.690
- Who said they are freaking out over the size of this audience.
- 00:02:47.690 --> 00:02:51.628
- Yeah, i mean, why not?
- 00:02:51.628 --> 00:02:52.495
- Because what it does is it ultimately
- 00:02:52.495 --> 00:02:53.763
- Shows that you've lost the culture war.
- 00:02:53.763 --> 00:02:55.765
- That the nfl's decided to sabotage
- 00:02:55.765 --> 00:02:58.167
- And betray their own fans, to do a program
- 00:02:58.167 --> 00:03:00.803
- That is not in english, that has third world esthetics,
- 00:03:00.803 --> 00:03:03.506
- That's open borders messaging, lgbt messaging, woke propaganda.
- 00:03:03.506 --> 00:03:09.779
- Bottom line,
- 00:03:10.113 --> 00:03:11.281
- Bad bunny was bad business for the nfl.
- 00:03:11.281 --> 00:03:15.051
- The league decided to alienate a large segment of its audience
- 00:03:15.051 --> 00:03:19.255
- With a performance that wasn't even in english at all.
- 00:03:19.255 --> 00:03:23.493
- And given by a vocal left
- 00:03:23.493 --> 00:03:25.094
- Wing advocate who even threatened to wear
- 00:03:25.094 --> 00:03:26.996
- A dress during the show, but apparently changed his mind
- 00:03:26.996 --> 00:03:30.967
- In return, america said no thanks.
- 00:03:30.967 --> 00:03:34.570
- Maybe the nfl will get the memo.
- 00:03:34.570 --> 00:03:37.173
- In the meantime,
- 00:03:37.173 --> 00:03:38.374
- The woke open borders crowd is ramping up their madness,
- 00:03:38.374 --> 00:03:42.278
- And it's even worse than you think.
- 00:03:42.278 --> 00:03:44.447
- Up next, peter schweitzer rips the lid off the complete abuse
- 00:03:44.447 --> 00:03:48.117
- Of our immigration system.
- 00:03:48.117 --> 00:03:49.952
- And it all starts now. you.
- 00:03:49.952 --> 00:04:08.771
- When people think about coups,
- 00:04:09.372 --> 00:04:11.274
- They usually imagine something loud and obvious.
- 00:04:11.274 --> 00:04:14.377
- Soldiers in the streets.
- 00:04:14.377 --> 00:04:15.645
- Governments collapsing overnight.
- 00:04:15.645 --> 00:04:17.714
- But what if there was a more stealthy way
- 00:04:17.714 --> 00:04:20.350
- Of bringing a country to its knees?
- 00:04:20.350 --> 00:04:23.152
- Peter schweitzer is a new york times best selling author,
- 00:04:23.152 --> 00:04:25.922
- And he's here to talk about his brand new blockbuster,
- 00:04:25.922 --> 00:04:28.891
- The invisible coup,
- 00:04:28.891 --> 00:04:30.259
- How american elites
- 00:04:30.259 --> 00:04:31.728
- And foreign powers use immigration as a weapon.
- 00:04:31.728 --> 00:04:35.198
- Peter, always great to see you.
- 00:04:35.198 --> 00:04:37.333
- Thank you for writing this book, first of all.
- 00:04:37.333 --> 00:04:39.869
- And i look at the situation
- 00:04:39.869 --> 00:04:41.104
- With mass migration here in america.
- 00:04:41.104 --> 00:04:43.506
- It's hard not to compare it to europe
- 00:04:43.506 --> 00:04:45.475
- And the problems they're having right now
- 00:04:45.475 --> 00:04:46.943
- With mass muslim immigration.
- 00:04:46.943 --> 00:04:48.811
- And it seems, peter,
- 00:04:48.811 --> 00:04:50.146
- A similar stance by elites both in the u.s.
- 00:04:50.146 --> 00:04:53.149
- And in europe, welcoming in intentionally
- 00:04:53.149 --> 00:04:56.719
- It seems, migrants who don't share western values.
- 00:04:56.719 --> 00:05:00.623
- Is that how you see it?
- 00:05:00.623 --> 00:05:01.524
- Is this intentional
- 00:05:01.524 --> 00:05:02.792
- On the part of elites to transform judeo-christian,
- 00:05:02.792 --> 00:05:05.862
- Western civilization?
- 00:05:05.862 --> 00:05:07.296
- Yeah, there's no question about it, eric.
- 00:05:08.197 --> 00:05:10.233
- In fact, they say so themselves.
- 00:05:10.233 --> 00:05:12.668
- A lot of the big donors to ngos,
- 00:05:12.668 --> 00:05:16.539
- People like bill gates and george soros,
- 00:05:16.539 --> 00:05:19.275
- They give to organizations that are,
- 00:05:19.275 --> 00:05:22.412
- You know, pro-immigration, that relocate refugees.
- 00:05:22.412 --> 00:05:25.515
- And these ngos will say the reason they want
- 00:05:25.515 --> 00:05:28.651
- Mass migration is for the, quote, transformative effects
- 00:05:28.651 --> 00:05:32.655
- That it will have on the host country,
- 00:05:32.655 --> 00:05:34.590
- Namely the united states or europe.
- 00:05:34.590 --> 00:05:37.026
- And i think we also have to acknowledge
- 00:05:37.026 --> 00:05:38.828
- What the foreign adversaries say about this.
- 00:05:38.828 --> 00:05:41.798
- What does china,
- 00:05:41.798 --> 00:05:43.366
- The muslim brotherhood,
- 00:05:43.366 --> 00:05:44.467
- Or what does mexico say about mass migration?
- 00:05:44.467 --> 00:05:47.303
- They all see it in different ways as a tool
- 00:05:47.303 --> 00:05:50.173
- Or a weapon to deploy against the west.
- 00:05:50.173 --> 00:05:52.542
- So how we think about
- 00:05:52.542 --> 00:05:54.744
- It is less important than the way that they think
- 00:05:54.744 --> 00:05:56.979
- About it and talk about it, and clearly they see it
- 00:05:56.979 --> 00:06:00.016
- As a means not only for changing our civilization,
- 00:06:00.016 --> 00:06:04.053
- But also changing our politics in a direction that favors them
- 00:06:04.053 --> 00:06:08.057
- And their agenda.
- 00:06:08.057 --> 00:06:09.325
- Yeah. peter, in the book, you call it weaponized immigration.
- 00:06:09.325 --> 00:06:11.928
- So well put.
- 00:06:11.928 --> 00:06:12.895
- And i think back to the four years before
- 00:06:12.895 --> 00:06:14.530
- President trump came back into office,
- 00:06:14.530 --> 00:06:16.666
- And a lot of americans were outraged, saying,
- 00:06:16.666 --> 00:06:18.468
- Why are they doing this?
- 00:06:18.468 --> 00:06:19.635
- Why is the biden administration
- 00:06:19.635 --> 00:06:21.137
- Letting millions upon millions of people
- 00:06:21.137 --> 00:06:23.372
- Cross into the united states
- 00:06:23.372 --> 00:06:25.041
- Illegally and not sending them back home?
- 00:06:25.041 --> 00:06:27.743
- There was a strategy here, it seems, peter.
- 00:06:27.743 --> 00:06:30.146
- Yeah. that's right.
- 00:06:30.146 --> 00:06:30.947
- I mean, as soon as
- 00:06:30.947 --> 00:06:32.315
- Joe biden was declared the winner of the 2020 election,
- 00:06:32.315 --> 00:06:36.018
- Foreign governments immediately went to work to open up
- 00:06:36.018 --> 00:06:38.821
- The spigots.
- 00:06:38.821 --> 00:06:39.889
- People don't realize it's kind of a faucet.
- 00:06:39.889 --> 00:06:42.124
- They can control
- 00:06:42.124 --> 00:06:43.559
- How many people are going to try to get to the us border.
- 00:06:43.559 --> 00:06:46.162
- So days after, biden was declared the winner,
- 00:06:46.162 --> 00:06:50.433
- The government of mexico passed a series of laws secretly
- 00:06:50.433 --> 00:06:53.469
- That they knew would spur mass migration to the us border.
- 00:06:53.469 --> 00:06:58.140
- Marxist governments like nicaragua said pay us $50.
- 00:06:58.140 --> 00:07:01.444
- You can fly to nicaragua from anywhere in the world,
- 00:07:01.444 --> 00:07:04.347
- And we will get you up to the mexican border
- 00:07:04.347 --> 00:07:06.616
- So you can get to the united states.
- 00:07:06.616 --> 00:07:08.951
- And literally more than a million
- 00:07:08.951 --> 00:07:10.419
- And a half people from africa and asia took them up on it.
- 00:07:10.419 --> 00:07:13.389
- I democrats discovered in the 1990s, under bill
- 00:07:13.389 --> 00:07:16.259
- Clinton that, newly minted citizens
- 00:07:16.259 --> 00:07:19.529
- That are naturalized to vote about 85% for democrats.
- 00:07:19.529 --> 00:07:23.633
- That evens out over the course of 20 years.
- 00:07:23.633 --> 00:07:26.369
- But for that first 20 years, it's a very reliable democratic
- 00:07:26.369 --> 00:07:29.639
- Voting bloc.
- 00:07:29.639 --> 00:07:30.640
- So every american president,
- 00:07:30.640 --> 00:07:32.975
- Of the democratic persuasion in recent years,
- 00:07:32.975 --> 00:07:36.312
- Has gotten rid of the restrictions or the requirements
- 00:07:36.312 --> 00:07:39.715
- For getting new citizenship.
- 00:07:39.715 --> 00:07:41.117
- They got rid of criminal background checks,
- 00:07:41.117 --> 00:07:43.352
- They got rid of literacy requirements.
- 00:07:43.352 --> 00:07:45.221
- They got rid of,
- 00:07:45.221 --> 00:07:46.422
- The civics tests that you're supposed to pass
- 00:07:46.422 --> 00:07:49.125
- Because they wanted to mint as many new voters
- 00:07:49.125 --> 00:07:51.961
- As possible through the citizenship process.
- 00:07:51.961 --> 00:07:55.064
- And the final thing to be said politically is it's a big winner
- 00:07:55.064 --> 00:07:58.834
- Beneficiary for democrats, even if these immigrants
- 00:07:58.834 --> 00:08:02.605
- Don't vote because our census is calculated
- 00:08:02.605 --> 00:08:05.341
- Not based on counting citizens,
- 00:08:05.341 --> 00:08:07.677
- But counting on people that are present in a state.
- 00:08:07.677 --> 00:08:10.746
- So this is a big boon to states like california,
- 00:08:10.746 --> 00:08:14.317
- Because it gives them more congressional seats.
- 00:08:14.317 --> 00:08:16.586
- It gives them more in the electoral college.
- 00:08:16.586 --> 00:08:19.088
- And that helps, elect democrats.
- 00:08:19.088 --> 00:08:21.824
- And we see why the democrats are so fiercely opposing
- 00:08:21.824 --> 00:08:24.961
- Voter id laws, because that would enable
- 00:08:24.961 --> 00:08:27.496
- Possibly the droves of illegals to vote without showing id.
- 00:08:27.496 --> 00:08:31.400
- Another factor.
- 00:08:31.767 --> 00:08:32.868
- And peter, the book is such an incredible exposé.
- 00:08:32.868 --> 00:08:35.438
- One of the things you expose
- 00:08:35.438 --> 00:08:36.706
- Is that mexican government officials are living on u.s.
- 00:08:36.706 --> 00:08:40.576
- Soil.
- 00:08:40.576 --> 00:08:41.844
- Yeah, i mean, mexico's elite has said repeatedly, and i quote,
- 00:08:41.844 --> 00:08:45.081
- You know, dozens of them in the book is saying
- 00:08:45.081 --> 00:08:47.750
- That mass migration to the united states
- 00:08:47.750 --> 00:08:49.719
- Is a way of extending
- 00:08:49.719 --> 00:08:51.053
- Mexican sovereignty into, into the united states
- 00:08:51.053 --> 00:08:53.990
- To retake territories that they lost in the 19th century.
- 00:08:53.990 --> 00:08:57.994
- Those are their words, not mine.
- 00:08:57.994 --> 00:08:59.629
- And the way they accomplish that is by mass migration
- 00:08:59.629 --> 00:09:02.465
- And by setting up political structures in our country.
- 00:09:02.465 --> 00:09:05.768
- So, there are literally mexican officials who live
- 00:09:05.768 --> 00:09:09.572
- In the united states, arizona, california, texas, chicago,
- 00:09:09.572 --> 00:09:13.843
- Who are senior government officials.
- 00:09:13.843 --> 00:09:15.645
- Their job is to represent mexicans in the united states,
- 00:09:15.645 --> 00:09:19.615
- In the mexican senate and in the mexican congress.
- 00:09:19.615 --> 00:09:22.585
- And they do so.
- 00:09:22.585 --> 00:09:23.886
- So you have this, intrusion into our politics
- 00:09:23.886 --> 00:09:28.024
- By the mexican government, which also includes an extensive
- 00:09:28.024 --> 00:09:31.861
- Network of consulates around the country.
- 00:09:31.861 --> 00:09:35.164
- The uk and china have, respectfully,
- 00:09:35.164 --> 00:09:38.434
- Six and seven consulates in the united states.
- 00:09:38.434 --> 00:09:42.071
- Mexico has 53,
- 00:09:42.071 --> 00:09:44.674
- And those consulates are involved in meddling
- 00:09:44.674 --> 00:09:47.376
- In our politics
- 00:09:47.376 --> 00:09:48.544
- In the united states, organizing anti ice protests, etc..
- 00:09:48.544 --> 00:09:52.548
- So they are literally,
- 00:09:52.548 --> 00:09:54.717
- Actively moving inside of our country
- 00:09:54.717 --> 00:09:57.586
- To advance their interests in what they call greater mexico.
- 00:09:57.586 --> 00:10:00.990
- So that is a very tangible way in which mexico is beginning
- 00:10:00.990 --> 00:10:05.161
- To exert control or authority in portions of the united states.
- 00:10:05.161 --> 00:10:09.265
- Peter, it is insane, folks, you must pick up this book.
- 00:10:09.265 --> 00:10:12.068
- It is called the invisible coup,
- 00:10:12.068 --> 00:10:13.436
- Available right now, amazon.com.
- 00:10:13.436 --> 00:10:15.104
- Wherever books are sold, it is a must read.
- 00:10:15.104 --> 00:10:17.406
- Up next, more with peter schweitzer.
- 00:10:17.406 --> 00:10:19.675
- What about china's role in all of this
- 00:10:19.675 --> 00:10:22.211
- And what can be done to combat it?
- 00:10:22.211 --> 00:10:24.046
- President trump obviously
- 00:10:24.046 --> 00:10:25.247
- Securing the southern border,
- 00:10:25.247 --> 00:10:27.083
- But the barbarians are still inside the gates.
- 00:10:27.083 --> 00:10:29.752
- More with peter schweitzer after the break.
- 00:10:29.752 --> 00:10:32.788
- Stick around.
- 00:10:32.788 --> 00:10:38.005
- Stick around.
- 00:10:38.005 --> 00:10:41.096
- Welcome back to stakelbeck tonight,
- 00:10:41.863 --> 00:10:43.298
- We're talking to new york times bestselling author
- 00:10:43.298 --> 00:10:45.233
- Peter schweitzer,
- 00:10:45.233 --> 00:10:46.101
- And we are diving right back
- 00:10:46.101 --> 00:10:47.302
- Into his brand new book, the invisible coup.
- 00:10:47.302 --> 00:10:50.171
- All about the nefarious
- 00:10:50.171 --> 00:10:51.573
- Blueprint behind mass migration into the united states.
- 00:10:51.573 --> 00:10:55.510
- Peter, earlier you mentioned the muslim brotherhood.
- 00:10:55.510 --> 00:10:57.579
- You mentioned communist china
- 00:10:57.579 --> 00:10:59.247
- As some of the beneficiaries of this mass migration madness.
- 00:10:59.247 --> 00:11:02.684
- Talk a bit more about communist china,
- 00:11:02.684 --> 00:11:04.953
- Their role in this, their goals in this,
- 00:11:04.953 --> 00:11:07.122
- And the factor played by birthright citizenship.
- 00:11:07.122 --> 00:11:10.024
- Yeah.
- 00:11:10.024 --> 00:11:11.159
- So china views their competition with the united states,
- 00:11:11.159 --> 00:11:13.428
- Not just
- 00:11:13.428 --> 00:11:14.596
- In terms of spheres of influence or military competition.
- 00:11:14.596 --> 00:11:17.699
- They view that this is a clash of civilizations, the judeo
- 00:11:17.699 --> 00:11:22.070
- Christian civilization in america versus
- 00:11:22.070 --> 00:11:25.106
- The chinese communist party civilization.
- 00:11:25.106 --> 00:11:27.509
- And it's about how we
- 00:11:27.509 --> 00:11:28.743
- Organize society, what we value, what we think is important.
- 00:11:28.743 --> 00:11:32.113
- And they've come up
- 00:11:32.580 --> 00:11:33.782
- With very ingenious ways to exploit our immigration system
- 00:11:33.782 --> 00:11:37.152
- On an industrial scale.
- 00:11:37.152 --> 00:11:38.953
- And birthright citizenship is an example of that.
- 00:11:38.953 --> 00:11:42.157
- Birthright citizenship is this notion that the 14th amendment
- 00:11:42.157 --> 00:11:45.994
- Means that if you are born in the united states,
- 00:11:45.994 --> 00:11:48.630
- You are automatically granted u.s.
- 00:11:48.630 --> 00:11:50.431
- Citizenship.
- 00:11:50.431 --> 00:11:51.633
- What china has done is created something called birth tourism.
- 00:11:51.633 --> 00:11:54.969
- That is a massive scale industry.
- 00:11:54.969 --> 00:11:57.972
- That literally means that more than a million u.s.
- 00:11:57.972 --> 00:12:00.875
- Citizens are being raised in china right now.
- 00:12:00.875 --> 00:12:04.145
- And the way it works is the chinese communist party.
- 00:12:04.145 --> 00:12:06.881
- Alerted the elite of china in the people's
- 00:12:06.881 --> 00:12:09.984
- Daily, which is their major newspaper, in 2011.
- 00:12:09.984 --> 00:12:13.188
- They started running articles saying, hey,
- 00:12:13.188 --> 00:12:15.590
- If you travel to the united states,
- 00:12:15.590 --> 00:12:17.492
- Give birth to your child there, bring them back to china
- 00:12:17.492 --> 00:12:20.495
- And raise them here, your child will still have u.s.
- 00:12:20.495 --> 00:12:23.665
- Citizenship.
- 00:12:23.665 --> 00:12:25.033
- And a vast industry of
- 00:12:25.033 --> 00:12:26.401
- Thousands of companies perform these services for the chinese.
- 00:12:26.401 --> 00:12:30.338
- Now, the united states government has no idea
- 00:12:30.338 --> 00:12:33.141
- How many people
- 00:12:33.141 --> 00:12:34.275
- Have been granted citizenship this way,
- 00:12:34.275 --> 00:12:36.644
- Because we don't collect the data.
- 00:12:36.644 --> 00:12:38.680
- We don't have on,
- 00:12:38.680 --> 00:12:40.215
- You know, a birth certificate,
- 00:12:40.215 --> 00:12:41.516
- What the nationalities of the parents are.
- 00:12:41.516 --> 00:12:43.751
- But the chinese government has looked into this,
- 00:12:43.751 --> 00:12:45.753
- And their estimates are eye popping.
- 00:12:45.753 --> 00:12:48.289
- They believe that over the past 13 years, every single year,
- 00:12:48.289 --> 00:12:52.694
- Roughly 100,000 chinese babies have been born
- 00:12:52.694 --> 00:12:56.564
- In the united states
- 00:12:56.564 --> 00:12:57.832
- And then taken back to china, where they are now being raised.
- 00:12:57.832 --> 00:13:01.002
- And so, eric, what that means is that when these
- 00:13:01.002 --> 00:13:04.639
- American citizens who literally were just born here,
- 00:13:04.639 --> 00:13:08.443
- But are completely tied to china,
- 00:13:08.443 --> 00:13:10.879
- Are going to be able to vote when they turn 18.
- 00:13:10.879 --> 00:13:13.481
- And to put that in context, 1 million voters in china,
- 00:13:13.481 --> 00:13:18.052
- The 2016 election was settled by 72,000 votes.
- 00:13:18.052 --> 00:13:21.589
- So this is a massive, massive vulnerability.
- 00:13:21.589 --> 00:13:24.859
- Supreme court is going to be hearing this case.
- 00:13:24.859 --> 00:13:27.495
- I'm glad they are.
- 00:13:27.495 --> 00:13:28.730
- And i hope they're going to factor in
- 00:13:28.730 --> 00:13:30.298
- How china is manipulating birthright citizenship
- 00:13:30.298 --> 00:13:34.068
- To infiltrate and subvert the united states.
- 00:13:34.068 --> 00:13:36.971
- Peter, it is just stunning.
- 00:13:36.971 --> 00:13:38.306
- We're so glad you're exposing this, by the way.
- 00:13:38.306 --> 00:13:40.541
- President trump look,
- 00:13:40.541 --> 00:13:41.976
- Taking action across the board on this madness.
- 00:13:41.976 --> 00:13:44.646
- He took office last year, of course,
- 00:13:44.646 --> 00:13:46.314
- And right away secure the southern border.
- 00:13:46.314 --> 00:13:48.349
- But we're pretty far down the line here with this problem.
- 00:13:48.349 --> 00:13:52.620
- Number one, what can be done?
- 00:13:52.620 --> 00:13:54.088
- What further can be done, peter?
- 00:13:54.088 --> 00:13:55.990
- And number two, who does it right?
- 00:13:55.990 --> 00:13:58.159
- Europe? canada?
- 00:13:58.159 --> 00:13:59.127
- Australia. obviously a mess
- 00:13:59.127 --> 00:14:00.528
- For the most part when it comes to migration.
- 00:14:00.528 --> 00:14:02.163
- I think of poland and hungary, perhaps as
- 00:14:02.163 --> 00:14:04.165
- Exceptions to the rule, a bit more about what
- 00:14:04.165 --> 00:14:06.467
- We can do to stop this and reverse course.
- 00:14:06.467 --> 00:14:09.470
- I think a country like japan, has very tight
- 00:14:09.470 --> 00:14:12.440
- Restrictions on immigration.
- 00:14:12.440 --> 00:14:13.908
- I actually favor immigration.
- 00:14:13.908 --> 00:14:15.843
- My parents were immigrants, but it needs to be controlled.
- 00:14:15.843 --> 00:14:19.213
- So to get ahold of this problem, the first thing we have to do
- 00:14:19.213 --> 00:14:22.817
- Is really make the case before the supreme court and hope
- 00:14:22.817 --> 00:14:25.753
- That the supreme court makes the right decision and says
- 00:14:25.753 --> 00:14:28.823
- Birthright citizenship does not mean
- 00:14:28.823 --> 00:14:30.758
- Anybody who just happens to be here, any, pregnant
- 00:14:30.758 --> 00:14:34.062
- Woman who steps her toe across the border,
- 00:14:34.062 --> 00:14:37.432
- That their child is granted american citizenship
- 00:14:37.432 --> 00:14:40.134
- When they have no ties here, they have no relationship here.
- 00:14:40.134 --> 00:14:43.071
- They have no, a roots here.
- 00:14:43.071 --> 00:14:45.573
- That's the first thing that needs to be dealt with.
- 00:14:45.573 --> 00:14:47.842
- And the second thing is we've got to deal
- 00:14:47.842 --> 00:14:49.477
- With these political structures
- 00:14:49.477 --> 00:14:51.412
- That the government of mexico has put in place in our country.
- 00:14:51.412 --> 00:14:54.382
- The muslim brotherhood has done similar things.
- 00:14:54.382 --> 00:14:57.885
- There is it's not acceptable for foreign diplomats
- 00:14:57.885 --> 00:15:00.521
- And foreign government officials
- 00:15:00.521 --> 00:15:01.789
- To be trying to manipulate our elections.
- 00:15:01.789 --> 00:15:04.392
- And radicalize migrants so that those are two places
- 00:15:04.392 --> 00:15:07.462
- That we can start.
- 00:15:07.462 --> 00:15:08.663
- And then we need to continue to secure the border.
- 00:15:08.663 --> 00:15:10.999
- We need to continue with deportations.
- 00:15:10.999 --> 00:15:13.034
- And once we deal with the weaponized immigration,
- 00:15:13.034 --> 00:15:15.737
- We can have a very important and valuable conversation
- 00:15:15.737 --> 00:15:18.539
- Of what level do we want
- 00:15:18.539 --> 00:15:19.907
- Legal immigration to be in the united states?
- 00:15:19.907 --> 00:15:22.944
- But we can only do that once we deal with the weaponized part.
- 00:15:22.944 --> 00:15:25.947
- Peter. that's the key.
- 00:15:25.947 --> 00:15:26.881
- Great points all around legal immigration,
- 00:15:26.881 --> 00:15:28.850
- People support and of course, assimilation.
- 00:15:28.850 --> 00:15:31.119
- You get into the lack thereof in the book, folks.
- 00:15:31.119 --> 00:15:33.654
- It's called the invisible cure, available again
- 00:15:33.654 --> 00:15:35.656
- Right now, amazon.com, wherever books are sold.
- 00:15:35.656 --> 00:15:37.759
- Also be sure to follow peter on x and across social media.
- 00:15:37.759 --> 00:15:41.195
- Peter, great work as always. my friend.
- 00:15:41.195 --> 00:15:42.830
- Keep it up. we'll see you again soon. god bless.
- 00:15:42.830 --> 00:15:44.999
- And coming up after the break, we told you a few weeks ago
- 00:15:44.999 --> 00:15:47.735
- About that south korean pastor who was in prison
- 00:15:47.735 --> 00:15:50.772
- For preaching the gospel in south korea.
- 00:15:50.772 --> 00:15:53.341
- Well, he's out of prison.
- 00:15:53.341 --> 00:15:54.876
- Thank god we've got a great update from his son.
- 00:15:54.876 --> 00:15:57.779
- Coming up. you won't want to miss this. don't move.
- 00:15:57.779 --> 00:16:02.004
- Coming up. you won't want to miss this. don't move.
- 00:16:02.004 --> 00:16:04.854
- Welcome back to stakelbeck tonight,
- 00:16:05.622 --> 00:16:07.590
- When preaching the gospel becomes a crime.
- 00:16:07.590 --> 00:16:11.728
- That's what's happening in south korea,
- 00:16:11.728 --> 00:16:13.630
- Where one pastor story is raising alarms worldwide.
- 00:16:13.630 --> 00:16:17.567
- Pastor
- 00:16:17.767 --> 00:16:19.002
- Son was arrested last september, spent five months in prison,
- 00:16:19.002 --> 00:16:22.605
- And was just released earlier this month.
- 00:16:22.605 --> 00:16:25.175
- While pastor son is now free.
- 00:16:25.175 --> 00:16:26.843
- His conviction still stands.
- 00:16:26.843 --> 00:16:29.279
- Joining us now from south korea is his son, chance, who's been
- 00:16:29.279 --> 00:16:32.949
- At the forefront of advocating for his father's release.
- 00:16:32.949 --> 00:16:36.553
- Chance, great to see you.
- 00:16:36.553 --> 00:16:37.821
- For viewers who may not have seen
- 00:16:37.821 --> 00:16:39.355
- Our earlier interview here on stakelbeck tonight.
- 00:16:39.355 --> 00:16:41.524
- Remind us, why was your father arrested in september
- 00:16:41.524 --> 00:16:45.495
- 2025, in south korea?
- 00:16:45.495 --> 00:16:47.330
- What exactly did the government accuse him of doing?
- 00:16:47.330 --> 00:16:50.733
- Yeah, my father was arrested because of words.
- 00:16:51.701 --> 00:16:53.970
- He spoke during a sermon at sunday worship.
- 00:16:53.970 --> 00:16:57.373
- And he warned the congregation
- 00:16:57.373 --> 00:16:59.676
- About specific education policies and campaign promises,
- 00:16:59.676 --> 00:17:03.680
- Such as promising 30% of a public sector
- 00:17:03.680 --> 00:17:07.383
- Positions, job positions based on sexual minority
- 00:17:07.383 --> 00:17:10.620
- School choice and woke ideologies
- 00:17:10.620 --> 00:17:13.323
- Affecting the education and school choice as well,
- 00:17:13.323 --> 00:17:16.893
- And how these could affect faith and families.
- 00:17:16.893 --> 00:17:19.762
- So basically chants.
- 00:17:19.762 --> 00:17:20.897
- He was criticizing the lgbtq agenda and the government.
- 00:17:20.897 --> 00:17:26.402
- The left wing new left wing government in south korea
- 00:17:26.402 --> 00:17:29.405
- Did not like it, and he was arrested.
- 00:17:29.405 --> 00:17:32.709
- What were the first of all?
- 00:17:32.709 --> 00:17:34.077
- This is shocking because south korea is a democracy.
- 00:17:34.077 --> 00:17:36.946
- It's an ally of the united states.
- 00:17:36.946 --> 00:17:38.381
- Are many large churches there?
- 00:17:38.381 --> 00:17:41.084
- But what were the conditions in prison like?
- 00:17:41.084 --> 00:17:43.353
- I know he lost some weight.
- 00:17:43.353 --> 00:17:44.954
- He was just released a few days ago.
- 00:17:44.954 --> 00:17:46.756
- But what were the conditions
- 00:17:46.756 --> 00:17:48.424
- Like five months in prison again for sharing biblical truth?
- 00:17:48.424 --> 00:17:52.662
- Yes. physically, it was very hard for him.
- 00:17:53.563 --> 00:17:56.399
- Although he didn't,
- 00:17:56.399 --> 00:17:58.401
- He didn't tell the families or any visitors.
- 00:17:58.401 --> 00:18:01.738
- So apparently there's only
- 00:18:02.305 --> 00:18:04.641
- A specific time, certain
- 00:18:04.641 --> 00:18:06.276
- Time, that the warm water was provided at 4 p.m.,
- 00:18:06.276 --> 00:18:09.312
- And he had to put the warm water in the plastic bottle
- 00:18:09.312 --> 00:18:12.248
- So he can stay warm for the rest of the day.
- 00:18:12.248 --> 00:18:15.351
- However, spiritually, he's even wrote this in his book.
- 00:18:15.351 --> 00:18:18.821
- But he even cried.
- 00:18:18.821 --> 00:18:20.890
- Being grateful for to be used for god's kingdom,
- 00:18:20.890 --> 00:18:23.860
- And also this opportunity for awakening christians
- 00:18:23.860 --> 00:18:26.930
- Around the world, that religious freedom must be guaranteed.
- 00:18:26.930 --> 00:18:29.966
- It's not guaranteed that it must be protected.
- 00:18:29.966 --> 00:18:33.136
- And so well said.
- 00:18:33.136 --> 00:18:34.137
- It's a cautionary tale for we here in america.
- 00:18:34.137 --> 00:18:37.207
- Your father is a very prominent pastor in south korea.
- 00:18:37.207 --> 00:18:40.243
- Do you think because of his influence
- 00:18:40.243 --> 00:18:41.945
- And because of his boldness for the gospel, that he was
- 00:18:41.945 --> 00:18:44.614
- Intentionally targeted, that they're trying
- 00:18:44.614 --> 00:18:46.482
- To make an example of your father?
- 00:18:46.482 --> 00:18:48.418
- Yes. because he spoke very boldly since covid.
- 00:18:49.319 --> 00:18:53.590
- So, for example, our church was physically
- 00:18:53.590 --> 00:18:56.459
- Shut down for worship during covid lockdown.
- 00:18:56.459 --> 00:18:59.762
- And even after that, we gathered outside in freezing weather.
- 00:18:59.762 --> 00:19:04.000
- And he also helped mobilize a peaceful movement called 1027
- 00:19:04.000 --> 00:19:09.739
- And save korea to fight against legislation,
- 00:19:09.739 --> 00:19:13.309
- To walk legislation, and also to fight for freedom in korea.
- 00:19:13.309 --> 00:19:16.713
- Yeah.
- 00:19:16.946 --> 00:19:17.747
- And i don't think it's a coincidence.
- 00:19:17.747 --> 00:19:18.581
- Chances you and i discussed before
- 00:19:18.581 --> 00:19:20.783
- Charlie kirk had met with your father just a few days
- 00:19:20.783 --> 00:19:24.354
- Before your father was arrested.
- 00:19:24.354 --> 00:19:25.722
- Charlie was in south korea,
- 00:19:25.722 --> 00:19:27.390
- Actually, just a few days before charlie was murdered.
- 00:19:27.390 --> 00:19:30.093
- He met with your father.
- 00:19:30.093 --> 00:19:31.361
- So the government definitely had their eye on your father.
- 00:19:31.361 --> 00:19:33.763
- This leftist government in south korea.
- 00:19:33.763 --> 00:19:36.733
- Okay.
- 00:19:36.733 --> 00:19:37.967
- Your dad is out of prison now, but the conviction still stands.
- 00:19:37.967 --> 00:19:41.571
- Does he still face some legal troubles?
- 00:19:41.571 --> 00:19:44.340
- Is this over now or is there more to come?
- 00:19:44.340 --> 00:19:48.211
- Yeah.
- 00:19:48.444 --> 00:19:49.345
- So right after the conviction, my father.
- 00:19:49.345 --> 00:19:51.981
- Final appeal.
- 00:19:51.981 --> 00:19:53.349
- And also the day
- 00:19:53.349 --> 00:19:54.417
- After the prosecutors have filed appeal as well.
- 00:19:54.417 --> 00:19:57.387
- They're arguing that six months imprisonment with 12 month
- 00:19:57.387 --> 00:20:01.257
- Probation was not enough and us asking for a longer sentence.
- 00:20:01.257 --> 00:20:05.595
- So while he's free, the case is far from over.
- 00:20:05.595 --> 00:20:08.931
- Yeah, this is beyond disturbing for biblical truth.
- 00:20:08.931 --> 00:20:12.468
- And again, chance, you said it earlier.
- 00:20:12.468 --> 00:20:14.337
- Everyone in the west better be paying attention
- 00:20:14.337 --> 00:20:16.906
- Because south korea again,
- 00:20:16.906 --> 00:20:18.341
- Democracy i mean christianity is thrive there in many ways.
- 00:20:18.341 --> 00:20:21.811
- It's an ally of the united states and the west.
- 00:20:21.811 --> 00:20:23.946
- This is chilling that this is happening.
- 00:20:23.946 --> 00:20:26.649
- Good news though.
- 00:20:26.649 --> 00:20:27.517
- You were in dc, washington,
- 00:20:27.517 --> 00:20:28.885
- Dc, last week, i believe, and i know that vice president
- 00:20:28.885 --> 00:20:33.456
- Jd vance, i believe, advocated for your father
- 00:20:33.456 --> 00:20:37.060
- And your father was released a few days later.
- 00:20:37.060 --> 00:20:38.861
- Tell us more about that.
- 00:20:38.861 --> 00:20:40.063
- Your trip to dc and some of the traction you got there.
- 00:20:40.063 --> 00:20:43.333
- In fact, vice president jd vance has addressed
- 00:20:43.333 --> 00:20:46.302
- About my father during his meeting
- 00:20:46.302 --> 00:20:48.371
- With the prime minister of south korea
- 00:20:48.371 --> 00:20:50.473
- Just a few days before the verdict.
- 00:20:50.473 --> 00:20:52.842
- And, because of that, we believe the order has been changed
- 00:20:52.842 --> 00:20:57.046
- Because there has been a lot of pressure,
- 00:20:57.046 --> 00:21:00.149
- From the state department and also executive branch of the us.
- 00:21:00.149 --> 00:21:03.386
- And, i think that was a good
- 00:21:03.386 --> 00:21:05.455
- Opportunity for the south koreans to know.
- 00:21:05.455 --> 00:21:07.390
- And also the government know that religious freedom
- 00:21:07.390 --> 00:21:10.426
- Should be protected.
- 00:21:10.426 --> 00:21:11.694
- And it's it's not something that the government can intervene.
- 00:21:11.694 --> 00:21:15.131
- And few days later, my father got released, on a probation.
- 00:21:15.131 --> 00:21:19.001
- And we are so thankful that my father's back to family
- 00:21:19.001 --> 00:21:22.071
- And the church so he can continue his work,
- 00:21:22.071 --> 00:21:25.174
- Back home as well.
- 00:21:25.608 --> 00:21:26.542
- Yeah, a chance. this is alarming.
- 00:21:26.542 --> 00:21:28.778
- This is alarming.
- 00:21:28.778 --> 00:21:29.645
- With this new south korean government
- 00:21:29.645 --> 00:21:30.947
- Is trying to do to believers there. and thank god
- 00:21:30.947 --> 00:21:32.982
- The trump administration is on top of this.
- 00:21:32.982 --> 00:21:35.351
- And thank you for giving them more information about it.
- 00:21:35.351 --> 00:21:38.688
- Last question.
- 00:21:38.688 --> 00:21:39.756
- How can we here in america pray for your father,
- 00:21:39.756 --> 00:21:42.125
- Your family and for south korea?
- 00:21:42.125 --> 00:21:44.560
- Yes. it's been very helpful,
- 00:21:45.161 --> 00:21:47.463
- For all the brothers and sisters in christ, i've been praying
- 00:21:47.463 --> 00:21:51.067
- And also supporting and raising voices as well.
- 00:21:51.067 --> 00:21:54.370
- So please, please keep praying for the courage for my father,
- 00:21:54.370 --> 00:21:57.573
- Pastors and christians in korea,
- 00:21:57.573 --> 00:22:00.376
- And for us to be able to keep raising voices
- 00:22:00.376 --> 00:22:05.381
- And to keep fighting for the kingdom
- 00:22:05.381 --> 00:22:08.050
- And let not let us down ourselves.
- 00:22:08.050 --> 00:22:10.887
- Amen. chants.
- 00:22:10.887 --> 00:22:12.121
- Thank you so much for all you're doing for the great update.
- 00:22:12.121 --> 00:22:14.524
- We're praying for you, your dad, your family, for south korea.
- 00:22:14.524 --> 00:22:17.527
- We're going to be watching south korea
- 00:22:17.527 --> 00:22:18.828
- Very closely with this government.
- 00:22:18.828 --> 00:22:20.496
- There is doing chants hang in there.
- 00:22:20.496 --> 00:22:22.598
- Keep up the great work my friend. god bless.
- 00:22:22.598 --> 00:22:24.567
- We'll see you again soon.
- 00:22:24.567 --> 00:22:25.802
- And coming up after the break, my final thoughts on freedom.
- 00:22:25.802 --> 00:22:28.871
- True freedom.
- 00:22:29.238 --> 00:22:30.706
- What does the bible say about it? that's next.
- 00:22:30.706 --> 00:22:33.409
- Stick around.
- 00:22:33.409 --> 00:22:37.002
- Stick around.
- 00:22:37.002 --> 00:22:40.080
- Welcome back to stakelbeck tonight, folks,
- 00:22:40.981 --> 00:22:42.716
- As we wrap up here.
- 00:22:42.716 --> 00:22:43.851
- What a great report from chance son about his father.
- 00:22:43.851 --> 00:22:46.654
- He's not out of the woods yet, of course, with south korean
- 00:22:46.654 --> 00:22:48.722
- Authorities, but he's out of prison.
- 00:22:48.722 --> 00:22:50.357
- But even when he was in prison, he's a mighty man of god.
- 00:22:50.357 --> 00:22:53.661
- And he was thinking,
- 00:22:53.661 --> 00:22:54.995
- No doubt, of second corinthians chapter three, verse 17.
- 00:22:54.995 --> 00:22:58.299
- Now the lord is the spirit,
- 00:22:58.299 --> 00:23:00.501
- And we're the spirit of the lord is there is freedom.
- 00:23:00.501 --> 00:23:04.038
- The spirit of the lord was in that jail cell
- 00:23:04.038 --> 00:23:05.673
- With pastor son, so he was free indeed, even behind bars.
- 00:23:05.673 --> 00:23:09.877
- But we'll continue to pray for him, folks.
- 00:23:09.877 --> 00:23:11.679
- Very important story.
- 00:23:11.679 --> 00:23:12.913
- Speaking of freedom america's 250th anniversary this year.
- 00:23:12.913 --> 00:23:16.450
- We're talking about it with our good friend
- 00:23:16.450 --> 00:23:18.085
- Ben carson tomorrow night.
- 00:23:18.085 --> 00:23:19.987
- You won't want to miss it until then.
- 00:23:19.987 --> 00:23:21.989
- God bless you. we'll see you soon.
- 00:23:21.989 --> 00:23:21.989
