Episode #21 The State of Freedom In the Mormon Corridor W/Ben McClintock
Look we all know that things just don’t feel right. We see it everywhere. Out of control inflation across all sectors of the economy. We see civil unrest, wars abroad, the degrading of our institutions, immorality masquerading as civil rights issues and the list goes on and on.
The next two weeks I have a couple of guests on the podcast to try and help us make sense of what’s going on. This episode I have on Ben McClintock. Many will recognize Ben as being the co-founder and former face of Defending Utah. He has since moved on from there to start The Tree of Liberty Society which seeks to have an impact nationally. Ben McClintock has strong roots in the liberty movement. He is the founder as well as membership coordinator and investigative reporter for Tree of Liberty Society. Ben has been featured in USA Today, Fox News, and many other regional newspapers throughout the west.
Stick around for this fascinating and enlightening conversation with Ben McClintock as we discuss the state of freedom in the Mormon Corridor.

on this episode of the Mormon,
19
00:00:56,200 --> 00:01:03,600
Renegade podcast, So, I just
want to take a moment to thank
20
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:05,200
you.
The Listener, when I started
21
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,900
this podcast I wasn't sure if
anyone would really listen.
22
00:01:07,900 --> 00:01:10,700
Now to my surprise, this thing
has taken on a life of its own
23
00:01:10,900 --> 00:01:13,300
and that's all due to you the
listener, spending your time
24
00:01:13,300 --> 00:01:16,200
here with me, and it means a
great deal to me now, as a
25
00:01:16,208 --> 00:01:19,100
husband and father, I'm keenly
aware of how important time is.
26
00:01:19,100 --> 00:01:21,200
It feels like there's just never
enough of it.
27
00:01:21,300 --> 00:01:23,600
So when you are spending your
time here, listening to this
28
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:27,900
podcast, I feel a responsibility
to never waste your time in that
29
00:01:27,900 --> 00:01:29,700
Spirit as this podcast has
grown.
30
00:01:29,700 --> 00:01:31,700
I feel like I need to do you the
listener.
31
00:01:31,900 --> 00:01:35,700
Justice, I want to continue to
produce good content and upgrade
32
00:01:35,700 --> 00:01:39,200
the audio quality that takes
better equipment and better
33
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:41,100
software and that all takes
money.
34
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,900
Now, I've tried to advertise,
but you'd be surprised.
35
00:01:43,900 --> 00:01:46,300
There's not a lot of people want
to advertise on a Mormon
36
00:01:46,300 --> 00:01:49,800
fundamentalist podcast.
I know surprising right now if

Today on the podcast, I am just
super excited.
65
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:49,500
Um I have on a guest who I
followed certainly since I moved
66
00:03:49,500 --> 00:03:53,000
to Utah and probably a little
bit before that just because
67
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:57,400
living in Idaho, your kind of
part of that Mormon Corridor if
68
00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:00,900
you will, right?
You'd follow 15 on up from Utah
69
00:04:00,900 --> 00:04:05,500
and then you hit 84 and and you
know temples just kind of doubt
70
00:04:05,500 --> 00:04:07,400
the land.
So to speak through that area
71
00:04:08,300 --> 00:04:12,900
and and he's been McClintock and
Ben has been involved with
72
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:15,700
defending Utah.
For how long.
73
00:04:15,700 --> 00:04:20,300
Now Ben was with defending Utah
for nine years and now, we've
74
00:04:20,300 --> 00:04:23,700
with tree of Liberty Society.
Nice nice.
75
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:26,900
So been real quick.
Did you grow up in Utah?
76
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,300
I did not I grew up in Northern
California and some Farmland.
77
00:04:31,300 --> 00:04:34,500
I was not the big cities, but
northern California.
78
00:04:35,100 --> 00:04:36,600
I actually served my mission in
Idaho.
79
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,200
So that's kind of cool that
you're from there and I serve my
80
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:40,900
mission.
I tell ya what part Idaho.
81
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,500
It was the Pocatello Mission,
but I serve most of it in
82
00:04:43,500 --> 00:04:45,800
Rexburg.
And the Teton Valley, okay.
83
00:04:45,900 --> 00:04:48,800
All right, right on most of my
time was spent on the the
84
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:52,900
western side of the state over
by Nampa Boise Caldwell that
85
00:04:52,900 --> 00:04:58,100
area.
So but so what brought you Utah,
86
00:04:58,100 --> 00:05:03,000
or did you move with your folks
or no, I we've only been in Utah
87
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,100
for just over a decade.
Okay.
88
00:05:05,500 --> 00:05:12,600
And just yeah, 12 13 years now
and I just for work.
89
00:05:13,300 --> 00:05:15,100
Okay.
All right.
90
00:05:15,700 --> 00:05:17,600
Would you think when you first
moved to Utah?
91
00:05:19,300 --> 00:05:22,700
I lived in Arizona, for a while
and it was a lot Arizona and
92
00:05:22,700 --> 00:05:25,000
Utah.
At least, you know, culturally
93
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,600
speaking are pretty similar kind
like Idaho, mmm.
94
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:31,800
And so I kind of gotten used to
that difference because I live
95
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,500
in the Northwest as well.
I grew up in California, moved
96
00:05:34,500 --> 00:05:37,900
up as an address right after
soon.
97
00:05:37,900 --> 00:05:42,800
After my second child was born
in 2003 up to Washington State
98
00:05:43,300 --> 00:05:48,000
and lived up there for 45 years
and it's a California and
99
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,800
Washington.
Culturally and in the church at
100
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,200
least is really very similar.
Hmm.
101
00:05:53,500 --> 00:05:57,300
And then you move to Arizona and
Utah and it's kind of it's a
102
00:05:57,308 --> 00:06:04,100
different culture for sure.
And so it was it was very you go
103
00:06:04,100 --> 00:06:08,900
from There's not enough people
to do callings to, there's too
104
00:06:08,900 --> 00:06:12,000
many people and so now I got to
make up callings.
105
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:17,400
Yep so me and my wife for for
time for couple years we moved
106
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:21,900
out to the eastern shore of
Maryland and I remember our
107
00:06:21,900 --> 00:06:27,700
steak boundaries went from like
literally the very tip of the
108
00:06:28,300 --> 00:06:31,900
this peninsula called the
Delmarva Peninsula where there
109
00:06:31,900 --> 00:06:37,500
was a part of Virginia, Maryland
and Delaware and And our steak
110
00:06:37,500 --> 00:06:42,800
went clear took in all of
Delaware took in a large portion
111
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:46,000
of Maryland.
They had to do state conference
112
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:47,800
like two weekends in a row,
right?
113
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,700
Because they do it in in certain
spots and just trying to make
114
00:06:50,700 --> 00:06:55,100
travel easier.
And I remember yeah, my home
115
00:06:55,100 --> 00:06:58,900
teaching route was literally.
It was like, literally, I was
116
00:06:58,900 --> 00:07:02,500
looking at it one day on Google
Earth and it was like a 75-mile
117
00:07:02,500 --> 00:07:05,500
radius, right?
For my home teaching I've ever
118
00:07:05,500 --> 00:07:09,100
had That.
And then, from there we moved,
119
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,500
we moved back to Idaho.
We moved to Meridian which is
120
00:07:12,900 --> 00:07:16,900
just as bad as Utah as you can
get without being in Utah.
121
00:07:17,300 --> 00:07:21,800
And I remember thinking my word
is like my neighborhood, right?
122
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:25,300
And it was such a, it was such a
shift, right?
123
00:07:25,300 --> 00:07:27,500
There was an award that I served
on my mission, that was
124
00:07:27,500 --> 00:07:31,800
literally like, two blocks like
it was ever.
125
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,700
There were there were only two
non-members in the ward
126
00:07:34,700 --> 00:07:37,200
boundaries, right?
Eight right?
127
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,200
Yeah.
No, you know it's funny when we
128
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:44,200
moved to Utah, I thought moving
to Utah for years.
129
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:47,500
I mean years, I was like not
going to do it, I Love The
130
00:07:47,500 --> 00:07:50,900
Gospel but Mormons drive me
nuts, sometimes and I don't
131
00:07:50,900 --> 00:07:55,100
want, I don't want to do it and
when I got here, I kind of fell
132
00:07:55,100 --> 00:07:57,900
in love with it right in a weird
sort of way.
133
00:07:57,900 --> 00:08:02,200
I can't explain it.
I just kind of did and one of
134
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,400
the things I always paid
attention to was the work.
135
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:05,700
You were doing with defending
you.
136
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:11,600
Utah, because I felt like I felt
like it was important work and
137
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:14,100
we'll get into that a little
later on why I felt that way.
138
00:08:14,100 --> 00:08:17,700
But what was it that brought you
into this line of work?
139
00:08:17,700 --> 00:08:22,200
I mean, nobody ever starts out
like saying, hey, I'm gonna go
140
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:24,800
out and defend people's Liberty.
You know when you're 8 years
141
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:26,800
old, right.
I mean what what was it that
142
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:28,700
attracted you to it?
Sure.
143
00:08:28,700 --> 00:08:32,299
So you know, I don't think of it
as politics, right?
144
00:08:32,299 --> 00:08:34,299
But it's kind of you get
introduced to it through
145
00:08:34,299 --> 00:08:37,100
politics, right?
I'd grown up there very
146
00:08:37,100 --> 00:08:40,400
involved, my I was like five
years old volunteering with my
147
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,799
dad at the Republican Party
Booth at the county fair and,
148
00:08:43,100 --> 00:08:47,300
you know, that kind of stuff and
you know, even as a teenager
149
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:55,000
same thing and then in but two
weeks together, time frame, my
150
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:58,100
father dies and we have my first
child.
151
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,400
And so, like my whole like, oh
my goodness, you know, the whole
152
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:04,900
world changes, somebody's
dependent upon me.
153
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:09,300
And I don't have somebody there.
That's really kind of Like to
154
00:09:09,700 --> 00:09:12,500
get a direct it and whatnot.
And so I was like, okay, I've
155
00:09:12,500 --> 00:09:17,000
gotta I've gotta figure this out
and so I know I've always been a
156
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:20,300
believer in the gospel and and
it came to a point where it's
157
00:09:20,300 --> 00:09:22,900
like, okay, well it's not just
for Sunday's, how does the
158
00:09:22,900 --> 00:09:24,500
gospel apply to every part of my
life?
159
00:09:24,500 --> 00:09:27,500
And, and I got my Dad's life
librarian in his, in his
160
00:09:27,500 --> 00:09:31,000
Library, he had books like the
naked capitalist by Cleon
161
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,800
skousen, goddamn the country.
And when I went to college at
162
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,200
Rick's, I had read.
What's it called?
163
00:09:37,300 --> 00:09:39,700
An enemy hath done.
This by Ezra Taft Benson and so
164
00:09:39,900 --> 00:09:43,200
I'd gotten that introduction,
you know back then in in
165
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,800
college.
But then at this point it really
166
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:49,700
kind of I just like, okay, you
know, this is the stuff that
167
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:53,600
that Liberty agency.
The thing that got us a body in
168
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:58,800
the first place is what the
gospel is all about on the
169
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:00,600
day-to-day.
Not just going to church, read
170
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:02,400
my scriptures, say my prayers,
you know?
171
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:07,000
And so I wanted to know how what
do I do about is there something
172
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:10,100
to be done about this?
Because if not, I will go back
173
00:10:10,100 --> 00:10:14,800
to sleep and be in my Blissful
ignorance and just go about my
174
00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:16,500
life.
But but the more I read the
175
00:10:16,500 --> 00:10:19,500
scriptures and the more I read
the words of the prophets, the
176
00:10:19,508 --> 00:10:22,700
more I realized that, no there
something had to be done.
177
00:10:24,100 --> 00:10:28,700
And so I read a talk and
actually, I watched the talk by
178
00:10:28,700 --> 00:10:31,600
Benson called Stand Up For
Freedom, where he was.
179
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,900
He said that the most effective
non-search organization in the
180
00:10:34,900 --> 00:10:37,400
fight for Freedom was the John
Birch Society.
181
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,100
So for me at that time, being
really, you know, I was like
182
00:10:40,100 --> 00:10:43,100
okay politics, you know,
single-issue organizations, but
183
00:10:43,100 --> 00:10:45,900
because they recognized that
there was a conspiracy as here
184
00:10:45,900 --> 00:10:48,600
combination that we were
fighting, that's, you know, that
185
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:53,200
was a whole different level
that, you know, importance and
186
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:56,600
so, I became a volunteer.
In fact, I came on staff, I
187
00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:58,600
worked for them for over a
decade.
188
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:00,900
I directed all of the activities
for the John Birch Society, for
189
00:11:00,900 --> 00:11:04,000
over 10 years.
In the Western United States.
190
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:08,500
Real quick, can I ask you a
quick question, you talk about
191
00:11:08,500 --> 00:11:12,200
seeing stuff going wrong, right?
And you're like I gotta do
192
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:13,700
something.
What were you seeing?
193
00:11:13,700 --> 00:11:18,100
That was really bothering you.
Yeah, because like, you know,
194
00:11:18,500 --> 00:11:20,000
nowadays it's more obvious.
Right.
195
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,000
So what what would someone
thinking about in the year 2000?
196
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,300
That was horrible.
These were perfect back then and
197
00:11:26,300 --> 00:11:30,000
so you had the Patriot Act that
was you know, beginning and I
198
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:34,400
was like, you know, I had my in
my Awakening, you know, I'm I
199
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:37,000
hate the idea of being awake, I
don't consider myself awake.
200
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,800
I'm Awakening so in the
beginning of my Awakening
201
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,500
because we should always be
learning and waking up to things
202
00:11:42,500 --> 00:11:46,200
that we don't know.
I was like I thought that the
203
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:49,100
Republicans were good and I was
like, okay, George w--, Bush
204
00:11:49,108 --> 00:11:52,700
wouldn't do x with the Patriot
Act but I don't want to give the
205
00:11:52,700 --> 00:11:56,200
present that power because What
if another Bill Clinton came in
206
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:58,200
and so I want I just want to be
a principal.
207
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:00,600
I was like we can't let our guy
do it even though he's good
208
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:04,000
because of bad guys going to get
in there and so I was like we
209
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:09,200
got to stop that and and then
the schools were just getting
210
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,600
just you know even back then
we're really bad.
211
00:12:11,700 --> 00:12:15,600
There's a lot of stuff going on
in the school system with
212
00:12:15,700 --> 00:12:20,400
especially in California where
they were they were showing
213
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:25,800
every single sex act, every
single one 12 kids and under the
214
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:31,300
guise of fighting child abuse.
And so, they're like, if
215
00:12:31,300 --> 00:12:34,100
somebody does this to you and
they show them the ACT that's
216
00:12:34,100 --> 00:12:36,300
abuse.
And so it was just like
217
00:12:36,300 --> 00:12:40,300
over-the-top ridiculous.
And and so, you know, we had a
218
00:12:40,308 --> 00:12:43,400
tax on property rights.
A lot of the things that we're
219
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:46,000
seeing now.
On steroids were we're going on
220
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:48,700
then, they've been going on for,
you know, 100 200 years, you
221
00:12:48,700 --> 00:12:53,000
know, since at least the 1840s
1830s and so they're just
222
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,100
progressively getting Worse all
the time.
223
00:12:55,100 --> 00:12:58,100
And when we, when an individual
wakes up, they feel like, oh,
224
00:12:58,100 --> 00:13:01,300
that's when it's really bad.
But, you know, it's been really
225
00:13:01,300 --> 00:13:04,700
bad for a long time, you know, I
remember when I had my Awakening
226
00:13:04,700 --> 00:13:08,200
to, to kind of the, the
Divinity, if you will, of the
227
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:13,300
Constitution founding documents
and certainly our founding are,
228
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:17,300
you know, founding fathers role
in that, and it was over the
229
00:13:17,300 --> 00:13:20,700
silliest thing.
So, this is about 2004, right?
230
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:24,000
And as I look back, and I think
most people are this way You can
231
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,900
really trace your life back
through a series of deflection
232
00:13:26,900 --> 00:13:30,400
points, right?
Yeah, one of those came for me
233
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:34,200
when me and a buddy went to
Philadelphia for a football
234
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:37,200
game.
Now I'm a huge Green Bay Packer
235
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:41,000
fan and he was a huge Philly fan
and they played in the playoffs
236
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,100
and were like, I wonder if they
play next year and sure enough,
237
00:13:43,100 --> 00:13:49,000
they played on a Monday night.
So okayed it me and him flew out
238
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:52,700
and we thought, well, we'll go
out a couple days early and
239
00:13:52,700 --> 00:13:55,300
we'll just kind of see the See
the Liberty Bell, that sort of
240
00:13:55,300 --> 00:13:58,600
stuff.
Yeah, and I remember I walked
241
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:04,300
into Independence Hall, and when
I'm in there and I see the
242
00:14:04,300 --> 00:14:10,300
chairs lined up just like you
see in all the paintings and
243
00:14:11,700 --> 00:14:13,900
Right there.
You know, I remember the the
244
00:14:13,900 --> 00:14:17,400
guide saying, right there is
where Washington sat to preside
245
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:22,600
over it and I get goosebumps to
this day thinking about it
246
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:26,100
because the hairs on my arms
stood up and the spirit
247
00:14:26,100 --> 00:14:30,300
manifested and said something
important happened right here
248
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,000
and you need to know what
happened right here.
249
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:36,400
Now I've always been a fan of
history but not so much the
250
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:40,200
colonial era, right?
It was it was more like Civil
251
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:41,300
War.
It was more.
252
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,300
Ancient history, Western Civ,
that sort of things.
253
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,500
So all of a sudden I start
diving into books, right?
254
00:14:47,500 --> 00:14:49,900
And I start diving into
everything I can get my hands on
255
00:14:49,900 --> 00:14:51,400
it first.
I'm disappointed because it's
256
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:54,300
just a bunch of Scholars saying,
what they think they meant,
257
00:14:54,500 --> 00:14:56,900
right?
Well then I discover Madison's
258
00:14:56,900 --> 00:14:59,800
notes, right?
And I start looking at that and
259
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:02,400
I see the original arguments
going back and forth.
260
00:15:02,900 --> 00:15:06,700
And you're right there, anyone
who gets to that point, they
261
00:15:06,700 --> 00:15:10,900
they feel like oh crap because
all of a sudden it's like,
262
00:15:10,900 --> 00:15:14,800
weird.
Way off course we have we have
263
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:18,100
done this the exit right?
Where we don't know where we're
264
00:15:18,100 --> 00:15:22,200
at and so and listening to how
you explained it you know just
265
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:25,000
kind of waking up to it.
It resonated with me quite a
266
00:15:25,008 --> 00:15:26,200
bit.
Yeah.
267
00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:30,100
So anyway, so you're heading up
the John Birch Society.
268
00:15:30,300 --> 00:15:33,500
Well in the Western United
States, I was directing
269
00:15:33,500 --> 00:15:35,200
coordinators and direct the
activities and that kind of
270
00:15:35,208 --> 00:15:40,000
stuff.
And in 2013, I parted ways with
271
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,900
the John Birch Society and I You
know that met some good people
272
00:15:42,900 --> 00:15:47,900
here in Utah with that work.
And just kind of were like, okay
273
00:15:47,900 --> 00:15:49,900
these things are going on this
conspiracy exists.
274
00:15:49,900 --> 00:15:52,400
They're doing these horrible
satanic things in New York.
275
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:57,500
You have the Bohemian Grove in
San Francisco, but this is all
276
00:15:57,500 --> 00:16:00,500
really a battle between Christ
and Satan.
277
00:16:00,500 --> 00:16:04,000
And so if this is a battle
between Christ and Satan,
278
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,900
wouldn't it make sense is the
hypothesis?
279
00:16:06,900 --> 00:16:11,200
Wouldn't it make sense that
Satan would have a higher Focus?
280
00:16:11,300 --> 00:16:16,700
Guess where God's kingdom is
headquartered, you know.
281
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:23,000
And so that that starts down the
this this road started me down
282
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:27,900
this road of saying, okay how
how can we find out if they're
283
00:16:27,900 --> 00:16:31,500
do you know this are they doing
these same things here that
284
00:16:31,500 --> 00:16:37,000
they're doing in other places?
And so that's that's that's the
285
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:41,200
premise that I started defending
Utah with and then now doing
286
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,300
Liberty to help everybody
recognizes that because it was a
287
00:16:44,308 --> 00:16:46,400
case study of how it was done
here.
288
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,500
Because everybody thinks oh
yeah, it's bad in Congress, it's
289
00:16:49,500 --> 00:16:51,800
bad.
At the UN, we don't have un
290
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:55,600
troops here but every city just
happens to be implementing
291
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:58,400
United Nations programs.
I was that happening.
292
00:16:58,700 --> 00:17:01,100
And so really doing that case,
studies helped us.
293
00:17:01,100 --> 00:17:04,400
So now we're with the tree of
Liberty society and we're taking
294
00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:06,400
that same thing and we're
saying, okay, this is how it
295
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:08,599
happens.
So that way you can identify who
296
00:17:08,599 --> 00:17:11,200
they are and how its implemented
in your community.
297
00:17:11,500 --> 00:17:14,099
And it's been a huge thing to be
able to identify that here in
298
00:17:14,099 --> 00:17:15,599
Utah.
Because I've always been a
299
00:17:15,608 --> 00:17:18,300
history guy.
But like growing up, I always
300
00:17:18,300 --> 00:17:21,099
found Pioneer Day to be
horrifically boring.
301
00:17:23,599 --> 00:17:26,900
Yeah, because it was, you know,
growing up, you know, the
302
00:17:26,900 --> 00:17:28,500
Pioneers are, you know, I
equated it to, you know, you've
303
00:17:28,500 --> 00:17:31,700
got, we've got in, you know, we
learn about the pioneers of the
304
00:17:31,700 --> 00:17:35,200
Donner Party and, and whatnot.
So I'm just like, oh, these guys
305
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:39,100
were just crossing the desert
and going through troubles
306
00:17:39,100 --> 00:17:41,200
because they wanted to get
somewhere the back.
307
00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:43,500
Around the Y.
The y.
308
00:17:43,500 --> 00:17:46,800
That's What Makes history.
Interesting, not the names and
309
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:50,700
the dates and the locations.
You help me they're important
310
00:17:50,900 --> 00:17:54,300
but what makes it interesting as
the why and I never understood
311
00:17:54,300 --> 00:17:58,600
the why until I started to
uncover how the conspiracy got
312
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:00,600
into Utah?
Right.
313
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:05,800
Well and you bring up a good
point that and to a to a large
314
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:07,700
degree I think it's done on
purpose right?
315
00:18:07,700 --> 00:18:10,900
I think the here that you have a
rewriting of history and then
316
00:18:10,900 --> 00:18:16,700
you have a dumbing down of
History just so kids don't look
317
00:18:16,700 --> 00:18:21,500
too deep right.
The thing is that when you
318
00:18:21,500 --> 00:18:27,100
understand the why you can kind
of again I apologize to my
319
00:18:27,100 --> 00:18:28,600
audience because I do this quite
a bit.
320
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,800
But as a surveyor you got to
know where your bearing is.
321
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,700
You have know where you are.
You got to know where you are
322
00:18:34,900 --> 00:18:36,700
and then you have to know how
you got there.
323
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:39,200
Yep.
And so when you wake up and you
324
00:18:39,208 --> 00:18:42,600
just kind of start seeing this,
this crap all around, you're
325
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,200
like, how did we get here?
How do we get this far off?
326
00:18:45,500 --> 00:18:48,800
And the only way you can really
understand how you got, there is
327
00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:52,300
the Story.
The why what happened at certain
328
00:18:52,300 --> 00:18:57,000
times within our country and
what was what was the end goal?
329
00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,500
And when you start to figure
that out, then a lot of this
330
00:18:59,500 --> 00:19:04,600
starts dropping into place and
so now I find Pioneer Day just
331
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:09,300
an immensely fascinated.
I love this time of year because
332
00:19:09,700 --> 00:19:13,600
I consider July to be
Independence month because the
333
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:17,200
same principles that the
founding fathers were fighting
334
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:21,400
for Studio.
Independence from England is the
335
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:25,800
same reason why the saints were
fleeing the United States, to
336
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,900
come to Deseret and to declare
their independence.
337
00:19:29,700 --> 00:19:34,200
And if we understand that that
it just opens up a whole new
338
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,600
world to understanding why the
saints were coming here.
339
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:39,900
Why that's important, why it's
amazing.
340
00:19:40,100 --> 00:19:44,100
And a lot of the revisionism
that's going on to denigrate.
341
00:19:44,100 --> 00:19:48,400
Good people is really Falls
away.
342
00:19:49,500 --> 00:19:54,500
Yeah, you know, and I'm reminded
I'm ramaiah and that's just it,
343
00:19:54,500 --> 00:19:56,900
right?
You talked about this earlier a
344
00:19:56,900 --> 00:20:01,000
little bit.
We often look at our problems
345
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:05,000
and and the the issues that
we're facing as issues that are
346
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:08,700
unique to our time.
And I the more I look at
347
00:20:08,700 --> 00:20:11,300
history, the more I realized
that's not true.
348
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,600
We ain't nothing special, right?
That's not true.
349
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:18,700
The same fight that we had at
the very beginning is the same
350
00:20:18,700 --> 00:20:21,200
fight.
Having now and it all boils down
351
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:29,900
to can man rule himself and then
reap the benefits and the and
352
00:20:29,900 --> 00:20:32,600
the consequences of his actions.
Yep.
353
00:20:32,900 --> 00:20:37,400
There was one plan that was set
forth that said You can do this
354
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:41,600
not everyone's going to make but
this can be done.
355
00:20:42,100 --> 00:20:46,300
The other plan was, I'll get
everybody back but there's not
356
00:20:46,300 --> 00:20:49,800
going to be this agency thing.
That that seems to be high high
357
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:51,800
up on your list of things with
this other plan.
358
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:56,500
So it's the same fight that
we've always been vaping always
359
00:20:56,600 --> 00:21:00,700
and when give up no and when you
look at that and you put that
360
00:21:00,700 --> 00:21:04,300
into perspective, all of a
sudden you realize that this
361
00:21:04,300 --> 00:21:08,900
idea of a Promised Land Did
America was isn't such a foreign
362
00:21:08,900 --> 00:21:11,400
concept.
It's the same idea that the
363
00:21:11,500 --> 00:21:13,900
children of Israel had.
And in fact if you go back to
364
00:21:13,900 --> 00:21:16,600
some of our earliest Founders
and I'm sure I'm not telling you
365
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:20,300
anything, you don't know, John
went through when they're coming
366
00:21:20,300 --> 00:21:24,600
across on the boat and he puts
his people under a covenant, and
367
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:26,900
he talks about, you know,
embracing each other and
368
00:21:26,900 --> 00:21:30,400
familiar Commerce and willing to
mourn with those in Bear one
369
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:34,000
another's burdens.
It sounds it awfully remarkable
370
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,800
to what's in the Book of Mormon.
When Alma is about ready to
371
00:21:37,808 --> 00:21:41,800
baptize.
It's almost the same Covenant in
372
00:21:41,808 --> 00:21:45,200
the founders even recognized it.
I mean, one of our original
373
00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:49,000
seals was supposed to be the
children of Israel being led by
374
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:54,000
the pillar of fire.
So this, all this battle that
375
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:57,900
we're facing right now.
It's very much a continuation of
376
00:21:58,500 --> 00:22:01,700
or at least, I believe it's a
continuation of the same battle
377
00:22:01,700 --> 00:22:07,800
we've always been having
absolutely So real quick, what
378
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,600
was your impetus for starting
defending Utah?
379
00:22:12,100 --> 00:22:15,900
It was, it was that it was.
How do we we have these things
380
00:22:15,900 --> 00:22:20,200
happening in our neighborhoods?
They're being implemented.
381
00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:24,600
But, you know, there's a, you
know, like the John Birch side.
382
00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:26,800
There's the got a good groups
out there explaining what's
383
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:29,600
going on in Congress, what's
going on at the United Nations
384
00:22:30,100 --> 00:22:33,400
but nobody understood how the
conspiracy was being implemented
385
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:39,400
locally.
And so we I sought out to find
386
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:42,600
out what that was.
How was this happening?
387
00:22:43,900 --> 00:22:47,200
And so, if you go onto the tree
of Liberty societies, YouTube
388
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:50,300
channel, and you look up, the
conspiracy and you tarsier
389
00:22:50,300 --> 00:22:52,900
combinations in Utah.
You can see the presentation in
390
00:22:52,900 --> 00:22:55,700
ful, where I go into detail, on
how that happened.
391
00:22:55,900 --> 00:23:00,900
Because nobody, this is, I don't
like to toot my own horn, but
392
00:23:00,900 --> 00:23:04,400
literally nobody has done this
research before and nobody has
393
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:07,900
been able to find that out and
say, until now, to discover how
394
00:23:07,900 --> 00:23:09,700
the Council on Foreign
Relations, how the United
395
00:23:09,700 --> 00:23:13,100
Nations, how the Bohemian Grove
house going bones house, The
396
00:23:13,100 --> 00:23:14,900
Federal Reserve, all these
things got into Utah.
397
00:23:14,900 --> 00:23:18,900
How and and and why are these
and how is that affecting us
398
00:23:18,900 --> 00:23:22,700
culturally speaking?
Why is it that you know we have
399
00:23:22,700 --> 00:23:26,900
a state where the people are
pro-constitution but our state
400
00:23:26,900 --> 00:23:30,200
legislature and our Governors
are just bending over and
401
00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:33,800
accepting every single federal
and United Nations mandate and
402
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:37,400
program.
Why is it that the Republicans
403
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:41,500
are you know destroying the
family and are destroying
404
00:23:41,500 --> 00:23:44,900
property rights and our
Communities to implement Agenda,
405
00:23:44,900 --> 00:23:47,600
21 programs.
You know, the list goes, why
406
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:50,500
it's not happening on an
accident and so to understand
407
00:23:50,500 --> 00:23:53,200
that was so vital.
And so that's that's why we
408
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:54,500
started.
That is why I started defending
409
00:23:54,500 --> 00:23:57,400
Utah and that's why to bring
that to everybody else is why
410
00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:00,000
I'm now moved over to tree of
Liberty Society.
411
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,100
So let me ask you this.
There was a ton of things you
412
00:24:03,100 --> 00:24:06,300
could have done, right?
You could have just printed
413
00:24:06,300 --> 00:24:09,500
pamphlets you could have started
a group of like-minded people
414
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:15,600
which which defending Utah was.
But the YouTube videos, that's
415
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:17,700
what I find fascinating.
And I guess I find it
416
00:24:17,700 --> 00:24:20,600
fascinating because I know what
my moment was when I decided I
417
00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:23,800
was going to get behind a
microphone with no experience
418
00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:27,200
doing it right.
What was the impetus for that?
419
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:30,700
What was it?
Particularly because here's the
420
00:24:30,708 --> 00:24:34,500
thing Andre in in looking at all
your videos and watching all
421
00:24:34,500 --> 00:24:39,000
those you do a darn good job of
being presentable.
422
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:44,100
So that was this was this
something that you Had from like
423
00:24:44,100 --> 00:24:49,400
your day job so to speak or and
and then what what made you look
424
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:50,400
at YouTube?
And we'll go.
425
00:24:50,500 --> 00:24:55,300
Yeah, that's it right there.
Yeah, so I'm the last person
426
00:24:55,300 --> 00:24:56,900
that should be doing YouTuber,
writing articles.
427
00:24:56,900 --> 00:25:01,100
I I was I'm an English fail.
You know, I failed English got
428
00:25:01,100 --> 00:25:04,600
no business writing articles and
I stutter and I'm shy.
429
00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:06,400
And so I've got no business
speaking and I've got no
430
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:09,000
business being in front of
people and so, but it was just
431
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:11,300
one of those things where I felt
a religious, you know, an
432
00:25:11,300 --> 00:25:14,900
obligation to my Father in
Heaven that you know, I didn't
433
00:25:14,900 --> 00:25:19,200
see it being done and so I'll do
it until somebody comes along
434
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:23,400
and does it better.
And, and so with my background
435
00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:26,300
with the John Birch Society, I
had a lot of the details and I
436
00:25:26,300 --> 00:25:31,800
knew how to do the research.
And so I just threw practice and
437
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:36,500
getting past those fears and,
you know, learning ways to get
438
00:25:36,500 --> 00:25:38,400
to not.
Be obviously, stuttering,
439
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:39,800
people.
Don't know that I'm doing it.
440
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:42,900
It helps.
You know, I just was like,
441
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:45,600
Articles are good, people learn
from different ways.
442
00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:48,300
And so people learn from reading
people learn you know, Audible
443
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:52,800
and so I was just like I just
need to put content out in every
444
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:56,300
different platform so that way
no matter what, people how
445
00:25:56,300 --> 00:25:59,900
people enjoy consuming content,
there's something for them.
446
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:04,400
And so and then YouTube just
kind of it just the way that the
447
00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:08,300
format is because you can show
things, you know, I can talk
448
00:26:08,300 --> 00:26:11,600
about stuff of the podcast and,
you know, you can do certain
449
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:14,400
things with with writing stuff
as a Article but just with
450
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:18,000
videos it's just so much easier
to be able to hey look, you can,
451
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,200
I've got a video of this guy
saying this thing.
452
00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:22,200
Look, I'm not making this up,
watch this.
453
00:26:22,700 --> 00:26:27,200
And so, you know, YouTube filled
that special Niche to be able to
454
00:26:27,700 --> 00:26:32,600
make it more real the people Do
you remember what was it like
455
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:35,300
your first time jumping on
there, right?
456
00:26:35,300 --> 00:26:37,400
It's one thing to think about it
academically.
457
00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:40,300
It's another thing when the
video fires up and you're like
458
00:26:40,500 --> 00:26:45,000
here we go.
Right was lots of lots of cuts
459
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:49,200
and lots of edits.
Let's take starts and yeah you
460
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:52,600
just yet, I go back to
something, they're still on
461
00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:54,600
their, My First episodes are
still on there.
462
00:26:54,900 --> 00:26:57,200
I go back and I'm like, oh, just
so cringe.
463
00:26:57,500 --> 00:26:59,500
I know, I know, I'm the same way
with this.
464
00:26:59,700 --> 00:27:03,500
And I've only done, I've only
done right at 20 episodes now,
465
00:27:03,900 --> 00:27:08,100
but I remember when I, when I
had the inspiration to do this
466
00:27:08,100 --> 00:27:10,800
podcast, I was laying in bed in
a hotel room.
467
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,900
I was out of town for work, and
I never sleep.
468
00:27:13,900 --> 00:27:16,200
Well, when I'm out of town for
work, I just don't, I feel I'm
469
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:19,100
away from my family, things do
feel disjointed.
470
00:27:19,700 --> 00:27:23,800
And I had this idea that that
just came to me out of nowhere.
471
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:28,700
And I remember I stopped off
because I was close enough, I
472
00:27:28,700 --> 00:27:32,400
could drive Where I was working.
So I stopped off at Best Buy on
473
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:36,300
my way home and picked up a new
laptop and a, and a microphone,
474
00:27:36,300 --> 00:27:37,400
my wife's like, what are you
doing?
475
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:39,800
And I told her and she was like,
well, it's not the dumbest idea
476
00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:42,800
you've had, so you know, gonna
go for it.
477
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:45,400
But ya know.
It's a big leap, man.
478
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:47,900
I and to see how far you've
come.
479
00:27:47,900 --> 00:27:49,600
It's just been awesome.
Yeah.
480
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:55,300
So so let's I want to talk for a
second and you alluded to it but
481
00:27:55,300 --> 00:27:59,500
I want to stay kind of central
to Utah on that Mormon corridor.
482
00:27:59,700 --> 00:28:01,500
Right?
Yeah, because I feel like they
483
00:28:01,500 --> 00:28:04,900
are so close, right?
Yeah, you can look at Idaho,
484
00:28:04,900 --> 00:28:08,200
especially Southern Idaho and be
like really, it's northern Utah,
485
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:10,600
right?
I mean, it's it's a direct
486
00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:14,700
support, for sure, right?
It's that close in terms of, you
487
00:28:14,700 --> 00:28:17,400
know, the culture and the
population that sort of absolute
488
00:28:18,700 --> 00:28:22,100
Talk to me a little bit about
how those secret combinations
489
00:28:22,100 --> 00:28:26,200
managed to worm their way into
Utah because let's, let's not
490
00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:30,300
forget when the saints come to
Utah, they're leaving the United
491
00:28:30,300 --> 00:28:32,400
States.
Yeah, absolutely.
492
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:35,700
They are leaving the country.
They're like, hey, this has been
493
00:28:35,700 --> 00:28:37,800
great.
But later days you've killed a
494
00:28:37,808 --> 00:28:41,600
bunch of people were out and so
they come out here and it's
495
00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:46,400
round that nobody wants, right?
I mean, it's it's Barren, even
496
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:49,600
the Indians didn't utilize.
Is it a whole bunch?
497
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:55,000
And so you would think they'd be
fairly isolated at what?
498
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:57,700
At what point when do those
secret combinations?
499
00:28:57,700 --> 00:29:02,500
Begin to flow into Utah and
under what guys are they coming?
500
00:29:03,300 --> 00:29:07,000
Yeah, so they mean, it really
started even before we came
501
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:10,000
here, everybody knows about
John, see Bennett, you know, and
502
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,300
at what a, what a horrible
creepy was right.
503
00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:15,200
And but he was able to make his
way into positions of power and
504
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:20,800
authority, but after the death
of the prophet, Him and a guy
505
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:24,500
that they, you know, pretend to
be enemies of each other James
506
00:29:24,500 --> 00:29:28,800
string, they combine together,
and they form a chapter of the
507
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:31,200
Illuminati, this is in the pages
of my book and it's in the
508
00:29:31,300 --> 00:29:34,300
that's coming out and it's, you
know, it's these are papers.
509
00:29:34,300 --> 00:29:36,800
I've got the handwritten papers
that are at the Yale, special
510
00:29:37,300 --> 00:29:39,500
special archives of this
organization.
511
00:29:39,500 --> 00:29:42,500
They formed together called the
Illuminati and it's, you know,
512
00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:46,300
it's all connected to those same
things.
513
00:29:46,300 --> 00:29:50,200
And that's why the conspiracy
from the GetGo at the succession
514
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:54,400
crisis was going after Brigham
Young because that's they knew
515
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:57,400
that's where it was at.
And that's where they that's
516
00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:00,600
where Satan had to focus his
attack on and in the began that
517
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:02,500
way.
And so soon as we soon as we
518
00:30:02,508 --> 00:30:07,200
come out to Utah, you know,
those same forces, followed us
519
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:12,700
out here.
And so it continues on where we
520
00:30:12,700 --> 00:30:17,600
have these, you know, people
smaller groups of people.
521
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:21,100
There are well At the time, they
were frankly, pretty large,
522
00:30:21,100 --> 00:30:25,200
their Gentiles came out here as
Miners.
523
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:30,400
And, as railroad workers and
whatnot, and they, and they were
524
00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:34,400
not just, you know, blue collar
workers.
525
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:39,200
We, these people that came out
here were, especially when the
526
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:42,900
feds got involved.
These were people that were of
527
00:30:42,900 --> 00:30:47,100
influence and people of power.
And they were groups that were
528
00:30:47,100 --> 00:30:49,500
started called one was called,
Gentile league in one's called
529
00:30:49,500 --> 00:30:54,400
the look The Loyal League and
judge William Hayden came out
530
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:58,700
and said, if they're, if they're
planned to destroy Mormonism was
531
00:30:58,700 --> 00:31:01,100
stopped, there would be blood in
the streets.
532
00:31:01,500 --> 00:31:04,900
And so, and at the time, there
was two thousand members of this
533
00:31:04,900 --> 00:31:07,700
group that they themselves call
the secret society.
534
00:31:08,300 --> 00:31:12,000
And, and so, that's a pretty big
group today, but just think of
535
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:17,200
the population, the size it was
back then and and that's a much
536
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:20,100
bigger, you know.
Section of the population that
537
00:31:20,100 --> 00:31:23,500
is working to undermine the
church from within.
538
00:31:23,500 --> 00:31:26,600
And then you've got guys like
William God, be who does things
539
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:28,800
from within as opposed to the
outward.
540
00:31:28,900 --> 00:31:31,700
Because, you know, as those
groups were really putting
541
00:31:31,700 --> 00:31:34,200
pressure on the Saints, they did
really well and staying
542
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,100
together.
You had the Reformation movement
543
00:31:36,100 --> 00:31:39,700
of the 1850s, where the saints
were repenting and he had these
544
00:31:39,700 --> 00:31:43,500
big Miracles.
And, and then you've got William
545
00:31:43,500 --> 00:31:47,100
God be coming in and, and, and
trying to shake things up
546
00:31:47,100 --> 00:31:49,700
saying, oh, no, no.
Want to, you know, bring in
547
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:52,200
Commerce from New York.
There's too much suffering here.
548
00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:55,200
The Saints are too poor, we need
to be more like the people in
549
00:31:55,208 --> 00:31:58,400
New York and San Francisco.
And so you start to see these
550
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:02,300
things really start to unravel
with, you know, at that point.
551
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:05,400
Yeah, let me, let's unpack that
a little bit.
552
00:32:05,900 --> 00:32:10,600
So you're right in the sense
that almost immediately.
553
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:14,300
Especially once, you know, the
railroads here and you start
554
00:32:14,300 --> 00:32:18,300
finding out just how
mineral-rich Utah is I think
555
00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:20,900
That's when you see kind of
those white collar guy, starting
556
00:32:20,900 --> 00:32:28,300
to come up right?
You have definitely the Pierre
557
00:32:28,300 --> 00:32:32,100
hotel in downtown.
Salt Lake was a hotel that was
558
00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:38,500
designed just for those folks
coming in from out of state so
559
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:41,500
they're definitely establishing
a presence.
560
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,600
Now God be if I'm not mistaken
and please, correct me if I'm
561
00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:46,400
wrong I'm used to being wrong
here.
562
00:32:46,900 --> 00:32:52,800
He was a Higher up with in the
LDS church but was also into the
563
00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:55,100
practice of the occult.
Is that correct?
564
00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:59,700
So he was very, really I
wouldn't say he held like any
565
00:32:59,900 --> 00:33:03,500
really special high up callings
but he was definitely close with
566
00:33:03,500 --> 00:33:05,100
leaders.
He married Brigham, Young's
567
00:33:05,100 --> 00:33:08,500
daughter, you know, they're
very, very close, you know,
568
00:33:08,500 --> 00:33:10,000
friends with with him at that
point.
569
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:11,800
But yes, he was definitely an
occultist.
570
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:14,000
Had you know what?
Go to New York?
571
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:17,100
Instead of going to General
Conference to go see a very
572
00:33:17,100 --> 00:33:23,900
famous Soothsayer, you know,
those guys that will speak in a
573
00:33:23,900 --> 00:33:27,900
dead person's voice and and
speak as if they were him and
574
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:31,500
here in Utah, he would do his
home was always filled with
575
00:33:31,700 --> 00:33:36,400
table tapping and, and seances
and those types of things.
576
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:40,900
And, and he tried to hide that
in his excommunication trial.
577
00:33:41,100 --> 00:33:44,100
He wanted to make sure that that
part of it wasn't ever brought
578
00:33:44,100 --> 00:33:47,700
up because he knew that that
would just kind of seal the deal
579
00:33:48,100 --> 00:33:51,500
and He just he in his
excommunication trial he wanted
580
00:33:51,500 --> 00:33:53,500
to make sure that was never ever
a thing.
581
00:33:53,700 --> 00:33:56,900
It was all about how he didn't
think that the church could you
582
00:33:56,900 --> 00:34:00,500
know should tell you what to do.
And so that's what they wanted
583
00:34:00,500 --> 00:34:01,900
to.
He wanted to focus it on because
584
00:34:01,900 --> 00:34:05,800
he knew he was toast if they
brought in the his practicing
585
00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:09,300
the occult right.
And what's interesting.
586
00:34:09,300 --> 00:34:14,699
As you read, early LDS history,
early, Mormon history in the
587
00:34:14,699 --> 00:34:18,300
Utah period.
Yeah you get a sense.
588
00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:21,400
It's that Brigham knows
something's up, right?
589
00:34:21,500 --> 00:34:24,900
Because he says so we like in
the in the What's called the
590
00:34:24,900 --> 00:34:26,800
prophets minutes.
These you know, the says there's
591
00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:28,900
a conspiracy going on.
Yep.
592
00:34:28,900 --> 00:34:33,800
And and he even makes it and
it's so interesting to see just
593
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:39,100
what what kind of vision he had,
because he even makes a pretty
594
00:34:39,100 --> 00:34:43,400
impassioned.
Declaration concerning Public
595
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:47,100
Schools, you know, he's like you
know basically saying if we
596
00:34:47,100 --> 00:34:51,600
import the System.
You can expect that.
597
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:56,600
We'll have Babylon here and so
he understands that there's
598
00:34:56,600 --> 00:35:00,000
there's a fight going on.
So to speak, between these
599
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:03,400
forces that are coming in and
him trying to defend, what
600
00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:07,400
they've staked out out here at
what point.
601
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:10,500
Would you say that?
Those those combinations become
602
00:35:10,500 --> 00:35:18,100
firmly entrenched.
That is a firmly entrenched
603
00:35:18,100 --> 00:35:20,400
firmly.
The entrenched it is, it's not
604
00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:23,300
like a they're like there's not
Hardline, right?
605
00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:26,300
It's not like, okay, June June
5th, we're good.
606
00:35:26,300 --> 00:35:30,500
June 6 were bad.
This gradual change, right?
607
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:34,100
And you really start to see it
where, you know, in the 1880s
608
00:35:34,500 --> 00:35:38,500
when the church leaders are on
the Underground and the church
609
00:35:38,500 --> 00:35:42,400
members are sending Anonymous
letters to the present, the
610
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:45,900
church to get him to back off
and to say, hey just do what the
611
00:35:45,900 --> 00:35:48,000
government says.
We have to obey the law of the
612
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:54,800
land and and then we have, then
you go to, you know, when the
613
00:35:54,800 --> 00:36:00,300
Manifest of comes out and and
then you go after that, where
614
00:36:00,300 --> 00:36:04,000
the leaders of the church go and
meet with the bankers you had
615
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,700
Wilford, Woodruff you go and
meet with the people at the
616
00:36:06,700 --> 00:36:11,600
Bohemian Club that hosts the
Bohemian Grove and trying to
617
00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:14,300
get, you know, bank loans
because the church is in such
618
00:36:14,300 --> 00:36:17,400
Dire Straits because of all the
lawsuits and because of the
619
00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:20,100
government stealing, all Their
property and so they're just so
620
00:36:20,100 --> 00:36:22,200
desperate that, you know, they
don't know what to do.
621
00:36:22,500 --> 00:36:25,100
And so they're just grasping at,
you know, where can we find some
622
00:36:25,100 --> 00:36:29,400
cash to just stay afloat?
And so, and, and, and then you
623
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:33,100
move into the 1900s with the
read smoothie hearing and the
624
00:36:33,100 --> 00:36:37,400
attacks, you know, on the church
during that time to be able to,
625
00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:41,600
you know, seek an apostle into
the US Senate.
626
00:36:42,100 --> 00:36:45,400
And, and then you really, I
think, you know, it's a one,
627
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,200
each of those phases.
You have these steps.
628
00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:54,600
Where we, as a culture, we open
ourselves up and we become more
629
00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:58,900
and more like the world.
And so, by the time you have the
630
00:36:58,900 --> 00:37:02,700
1920s and 30s were fully
entrenched.
631
00:37:02,700 --> 00:37:05,000
The conspiracy is fully
entrenched, in Utah.
632
00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:09,700
And as a society, we've gone
from, you know, I defy the
633
00:37:09,700 --> 00:37:13,600
United States with John Taylor
to we are faithful obedient
634
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:17,700
subjects, right?
Right.
635
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:20,700
You know, it Oh and here's the
thing, the attacks on Brigham
636
00:37:20,700 --> 00:37:24,600
haven't stopped the right to
increase in recent years.
637
00:37:24,700 --> 00:37:26,200
Yeah.
I mean if you look at what's
638
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:29,300
happening down at BYU it's a
little frightening, right?
639
00:37:29,300 --> 00:37:32,700
When when when when you start
seeing the namesake of the
640
00:37:32,700 --> 00:37:38,500
University, you know, suffering
from cancel culture, so to
641
00:37:38,500 --> 00:37:41,200
speak.
It's a Spooky environment.
642
00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:42,800
I didn't buildings.
Why not change the name of the
643
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:44,000
University?
If you're going to apply the
644
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:46,100
same logic, right?
Exactly.
645
00:37:46,500 --> 00:37:49,800
I just did inefficient age.
Dead in one of my earlier
646
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:53,400
episodes.
One of the things we sought to
647
00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:58,600
take part so hard was what I was
noticing in in kind of the
648
00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:02,800
blogosphere if you will of
Mormonism and that was this idea
649
00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:06,200
of kids coming out of BYU.
Having this idea that, that
650
00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:10,000
really calm, you know, that that
the United order is nothing but
651
00:38:10,100 --> 00:38:14,600
communism with a religious bent
that's been the charge.
652
00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:17,200
You know, since we're forever
you had to Marion G Romney had
653
00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:20,400
to do a talk at You the strain
them out back in the 60s.
654
00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:23,400
So I mean it's right and the
argument for forever, right?
655
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:29,000
And it's raising its head again
and and in frightening ways so
656
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:32,700
Utah finds Itself by the 20s.
And 30s pretty well firmly
657
00:38:32,700 --> 00:38:37,500
entrenched in In this idea of
we're going to be loyal subjects
658
00:38:37,500 --> 00:38:41,300
and and I get why, right?
I mean, these are people who who
659
00:38:41,300 --> 00:38:45,200
have, you know, certainly their
grandparents saw, what kind of
660
00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:48,000
Horrors can come when you defy,
you know, defy the
661
00:38:48,500 --> 00:38:51,400
powers-that-be.
It's not a fun place to be, but
662
00:38:51,700 --> 00:38:55,200
those concessions are made.
And and you get the feeling that
663
00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:58,200
is those concessions were made
that local government.
664
00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:01,800
Have this idea of well, we'll
give them this and then they'll
665
00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:04,300
be happy, right?
Just kind of appeasement.
666
00:39:04,500 --> 00:39:09,100
And it didn't pan out that way.
Well, I think you like you see
667
00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:13,900
when after the manifesto comes
out in the 1890s, it did for a
668
00:39:13,908 --> 00:39:15,700
while, right?
And that's, I think that cat
669
00:39:15,700 --> 00:39:22,700
that was the Trap was we and
this isn't really a part of the
670
00:39:22,700 --> 00:39:25,400
conspiracy itself.
This is just how the culture was
671
00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:29,300
able to change to accept the
conspiracy and so, because we
672
00:39:29,300 --> 00:39:32,700
accepted these things, then when
the government we said, okay,
673
00:39:32,700 --> 00:39:35,000
here's the manifesto.
And so, the government actually
674
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:40,000
like goes on Just takes the
initiative and starts to give
675
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:43,500
us, you know, some some freedoms
back and so church leaders are
676
00:39:43,508 --> 00:39:47,100
like, oh wow, that's they're
feeling like this is great, you
677
00:39:47,100 --> 00:39:48,700
know?
And so they're feeling and so
678
00:39:48,700 --> 00:39:52,400
that after the manifesto, the
the changes that were after that
679
00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:54,200
were like, oh that's you know.
That's tiny.
680
00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:56,300
You know?
In comparison.
681
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:59,100
Sure.
We will, we will totally make
682
00:39:59,100 --> 00:40:02,600
some deals and they also believe
in this was a, this is a problem
683
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:05,700
that we have today.
It's a problem that, you know,
684
00:40:05,700 --> 00:40:08,900
for the last The 1830s that
Christians have had in general,
685
00:40:08,900 --> 00:40:14,000
is this idea of, you know, the
savior's coming any minute now?
686
00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:19,200
And so we can give up certain
about ideas and it's okay
687
00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:21,900
because Jesus is coming back and
he's gonna fix it.
688
00:40:22,700 --> 00:40:25,300
That's, that's the mindset.
And so this was the mindset
689
00:40:25,300 --> 00:40:26,500
back.
Then you have talked by, you
690
00:40:26,500 --> 00:40:29,900
know, and and and correspondence
with Wilford Woodruff and
691
00:40:29,900 --> 00:40:33,200
Lorenzo Snow, it's like, this
really this stinks, but but the
692
00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:36,500
savior's coming back and so it
really quickly and it's You
693
00:40:36,500 --> 00:40:38,500
know, this isn't gonna be a
problem the next ten years, so,
694
00:40:38,500 --> 00:40:42,500
so it's okay.
And so we fall for these, you
695
00:40:42,500 --> 00:40:46,400
know there, I love them.
As, you know, I love those men.
696
00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:49,700
I believe them as to be, you
know, the key holders and and
697
00:40:49,700 --> 00:40:53,500
the continuation of authority
from Joseph Smith, but they are
698
00:40:53,500 --> 00:40:58,300
men, and just like Joseph Smith
accepted John, you know, William
699
00:40:58,500 --> 00:41:02,000
John, see Bennett as a member of
The Twelve you know, other
700
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:06,300
leaders do similar things that
you know, are mistakes.
701
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:08,500
All make mistakes.
And so that was one of the
702
00:41:08,500 --> 00:41:11,900
mistakes that they did was it
was thinking that it's okay to
703
00:41:11,900 --> 00:41:16,200
do these things because the
savior's coming any day now.
704
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:20,000
And so and and then that just
got into.
705
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:22,600
And at the same time, right?
You have these groups I
706
00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:26,300
mentioned earlier where you have
the Loyal League of the Gentile
707
00:41:26,300 --> 00:41:28,900
League where they were just in
your face and then you have
708
00:41:28,900 --> 00:41:31,500
these other softer organizations
like the altar Club where their
709
00:41:31,500 --> 00:41:36,200
job is to just you know be nice,
the slow.
710
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:41,100
You know, Fabian socialist route
of just one, we're just going to
711
00:41:41,107 --> 00:41:45,100
boil that frog very, very slowly
to not shake them, don't get
712
00:41:45,100 --> 00:41:47,100
them at, don't get into jump out
on his own just cook them
713
00:41:47,100 --> 00:41:50,400
slowly.
And and so the with with they
714
00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:54,700
formed the Salt Lake chamber of
commerce as a way to be able to
715
00:41:54,700 --> 00:41:59,200
influence businesses and
influence legislation to bring
716
00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:04,700
it to in the according their own
biography was to bring Utah into
717
00:42:05,700 --> 00:42:09,400
the same Sure as the rest of the
United States, this culture that
718
00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:12,700
we just fleed, they are trying
to slowly emerges back in.
719
00:42:12,700 --> 00:42:14,000
They realized that they couldn't
do it.
720
00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:17,400
All in one, big step had to be
one small step at a time and so
721
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:20,500
that's what they're these
organizations jobs are to do.
722
00:42:20,500 --> 00:42:25,900
And then you know that that the
they were able to creep into the
723
00:42:25,900 --> 00:42:28,900
culture where we were believing
in being economically
724
00:42:28,900 --> 00:42:32,100
independent or they're like no
hey look, look how much easier
725
00:42:32,100 --> 00:42:33,600
it is to go to the department
store.
726
00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:36,200
You don't have to do all these
things yourself, you know?
727
00:42:36,300 --> 00:42:37,800
No.
And so now we're going to
728
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:40,400
Gentiles.
We're big building up Gentile
729
00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:42,100
businesses and so that's one
small.
730
00:42:42,300 --> 00:42:43,900
The conspiracy gets us to do
that.
731
00:42:43,900 --> 00:42:48,500
And then, you know, we bring in
these free schools and the
732
00:42:49,500 --> 00:42:52,300
Latter Day Saints are like man,
these trips schools are too
733
00:42:52,300 --> 00:42:54,400
expensive and it's too much of a
sacrifice.
734
00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:56,900
These other religions in the
government's given this, these
735
00:42:56,900 --> 00:42:58,400
free schools.
Let's just send our kids to
736
00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:00,500
that.
And now these children are being
737
00:43:00,500 --> 00:43:03,600
brainwashed and so that changes
the culture more because they're
738
00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:06,700
bringing it really school is
like, School.
739
00:43:06,700 --> 00:43:09,600
Right every there it's Sunday.
School is meaning one day a
740
00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:12,900
week.
We're going to teach you the
741
00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:15,400
truth.
Whereas Monday through Friday,
742
00:43:15,700 --> 00:43:18,900
we're going to teach you the
doctrines of the state and so
743
00:43:19,900 --> 00:43:22,700
that changes the culture over
time as well where now they're
744
00:43:22,700 --> 00:43:25,900
really accepting of new ideas
and so it's really easy.
745
00:43:25,900 --> 00:43:29,800
When you have Heber J Grant in
general conference.
746
00:43:30,100 --> 00:43:34,000
Literally telling a story of how
he spoke to the head of the
747
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:38,100
Federal Reserve said, we will
put Put, I will put any
748
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:41,000
requirement there is over the
people of Utah.
749
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:45,700
If you will give us a branch of
the Federal Reserve, we will in
750
00:43:45,700 --> 00:43:48,800
and they talked and then he's
going to talk talks about how we
751
00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:50,800
and we borrowed the money like
we were supposed to.
752
00:43:51,100 --> 00:43:54,600
So we go into from this idea of
being economically independence
753
00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:57,800
of, you know, neither a
borrower, nor A lender be to
754
00:43:58,300 --> 00:44:03,100
bring in the Federal Reserve
guys and get those loans, right?
755
00:44:03,100 --> 00:44:06,000
So we start to really entrench
ourselves.
756
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:10,600
Um, with accepting the
conspiracies here, building up
757
00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:14,100
these monuments and building up
these institutions and changing
758
00:44:14,100 --> 00:44:16,200
the culture to get the Saints to
accept them.
759
00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:20,400
It's the, it's the, the old
in-your-face, Route didn't work,
760
00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:23,100
and they realize that they
couldn't come in here, and, and
761
00:44:23,100 --> 00:44:25,300
strangle you and threaten that,
you know, if they came in here
762
00:44:25,300 --> 00:44:28,000
and said, you get a loan from
the bank or were throwing you in
763
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:30,800
jail, you're like, oh wait, I'm
not getting a loan, you can
764
00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:34,200
throw me in jail go you know,
pound sand but you know, you
765
00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:37,200
take the soft approach of.
Look how How much things you
766
00:44:37,200 --> 00:44:38,800
know, how much more things we
can get done.
767
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:41,800
How much more prosperous we are.
And prosperity means blessings
768
00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:44,600
blessings being righteousness.
We are just, you know, all's
769
00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:48,200
well in Zion.
So I want I want to go back.
770
00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:53,300
You're just a bit and I want to
break down three organizations
771
00:44:53,300 --> 00:44:56,500
because as I look at it and you
again correct me if I'm wrong,
772
00:44:56,500 --> 00:45:00,300
then you're the expert here.
But when you're talking about
773
00:45:00,300 --> 00:45:04,800
Utah, there seems to be three or
four groups that I feel like
774
00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:08,700
really have their Hands on the
lever so to speak, especially in
775
00:45:08,700 --> 00:45:13,100
those early days, one is the
Alta Club, right?
776
00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:16,100
The other is the Gentile, leaky
talked about.
777
00:45:16,100 --> 00:45:20,700
Yeah, and the third, I would I
would dare to say is is Bohemian
778
00:45:20,700 --> 00:45:26,300
Grove so real quick talk to me a
little bit about what each of
779
00:45:26,308 --> 00:45:30,800
those organizations were So
yeah, I would say that they have
780
00:45:30,808 --> 00:45:33,500
differing levels of influence in
Utah.
781
00:45:33,500 --> 00:45:38,300
So you have the Bohemian Club
there, they have a headquarters,
782
00:45:38,300 --> 00:45:43,600
downstate downtown downtown, San
Francisco and then you know if
783
00:45:43,600 --> 00:45:46,300
your listeners aren't aware
that, you can go down that dark
784
00:45:46,300 --> 00:45:50,200
deep path on the on the internet
and watch the videos of film
785
00:45:50,200 --> 00:45:53,900
footage of what they do at the,
at the retreat.
786
00:45:53,900 --> 00:45:57,700
At the Bohemian Grove every late
summer this time of year up,
787
00:45:57,700 --> 00:46:01,200
just north of Francisco where
the elites that you powerful
788
00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:06,700
Elites in Academia in
government, and in, you know, in
789
00:46:06,700 --> 00:46:09,900
finance get together.
That's where they plan things
790
00:46:09,900 --> 00:46:13,700
like, you know, her Oshima and
that's where they Reagan went.
791
00:46:13,700 --> 00:46:18,000
There Nixon went there, you
know, this is just, it's a who's
792
00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:21,100
who of the powerful Elites, they
get together and they do this
793
00:46:21,100 --> 00:46:23,400
thing called The Cremation of
care where they do a mock Human
794
00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:26,600
Sacrifice, or they do this
religious ceremony, to this owl.
795
00:46:26,600 --> 00:46:31,100
God And they turn themselves
over to the, you know, that they
796
00:46:31,100 --> 00:46:36,100
give up the their conscience to
doing the so-called greater,
797
00:46:36,100 --> 00:46:42,100
good of serving Satan.
And so, during the 1800s up till
798
00:46:42,100 --> 00:46:46,400
the early 1940s, they
established a branch in Salt
799
00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:49,200
Lake City.
And that's where the underground
800
00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:52,200
sodomite movement was for many,
many years until it became a
801
00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:58,900
little more public when The
church patriarch was outed as a
802
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:03,600
as a sodomite and had to be
removed from his position and
803
00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:06,300
and they had to shuffle things
around.
804
00:47:06,500 --> 00:47:11,000
And so that Bohemian Grove at
the Bohemian Club in Utah that
805
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:15,200
time went back underground.
So that's kind of the little bit
806
00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:19,200
of the history there with that
and then you have the Gentile
807
00:47:19,300 --> 00:47:22,300
League.
They again were the more
808
00:47:22,300 --> 00:47:26,100
in-your-face group and they kind
of went away in the Yes, because
809
00:47:26,100 --> 00:47:32,100
from the 1850s to the 1870s that
the strategy was we're just
810
00:47:32,100 --> 00:47:34,600
going to pound you into the sand
and you're going to do what we
811
00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:37,800
say or going to kill you and
they really you know and so that
812
00:47:37,800 --> 00:47:41,100
was that was just what it was.
That was their program to get us
813
00:47:41,100 --> 00:47:46,400
to change and that just made us
in trench and they recognize
814
00:47:46,400 --> 00:47:47,800
that and bringing young talked
about that.
815
00:47:47,800 --> 00:47:51,000
He's like you know I you know he
feared the day that we stopped
816
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:54,600
receiving persecution because
you know, that would make things
817
00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:59,000
easier for us.
We would give up and so they had
818
00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:02,700
a lot of pressure to like get
Saints to turn other Saints in
819
00:48:03,100 --> 00:48:05,800
that type of a thing, but
actually changing the culture,
820
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:07,400
they didn't have much of an
impact.
821
00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:11,300
They were really just the
enforcers of the conspiracy back
822
00:48:11,300 --> 00:48:15,000
in d.c. trying to put the
kibosh, on the Mormons and
823
00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:19,500
Mormonism, and then you go to
the 1880s 1883 and the out.
824
00:48:19,500 --> 00:48:22,100
The club is formed where a lot
of these same individuals get
825
00:48:22,100 --> 00:48:24,200
together and they form a
different group.
826
00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:26,800
And they say, okay let's take
Take the small, the slow
827
00:48:26,900 --> 00:48:30,100
methodical approach where that's
that's where they can.
828
00:48:30,100 --> 00:48:34,800
You know in 1983 the mayor of
Salt Lake said that's where the
829
00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:39,500
establishment in Utah, meets in
secret to you know set up their
830
00:48:39,500 --> 00:48:41,000
plans and what they're going to
do.
831
00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:47,600
And so that's that's the meeting
place basically where all of the
832
00:48:47,700 --> 00:48:49,900
different organizations, the
different tentacles, the
833
00:48:49,900 --> 00:48:51,900
conspiracy meet together to
decide.
834
00:48:51,900 --> 00:48:53,100
How are we going to do these
things?
835
00:48:53,100 --> 00:48:55,100
That's where they planned just
in.
836
00:48:55,200 --> 00:49:00,500
Recent times, right?
The the the Utah law that said
837
00:49:00,500 --> 00:49:04,600
that it was about so called
protecting you know, gay rights
838
00:49:04,600 --> 00:49:07,600
where it was about destroying
the ability of property owners
839
00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:10,300
to decide who they want to rent
to and business owners who they
840
00:49:10,300 --> 00:49:13,900
can fire and who they can hire.
And so it was a destruction of
841
00:49:13,900 --> 00:49:16,900
property rights but that was all
negotiated and approved at the
842
00:49:16,900 --> 00:49:22,000
alte club.
You go back to the 1800s where
843
00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:25,000
you have a member of the Alta
Club Judge Williams.
844
00:49:25,100 --> 00:49:31,700
Zane was brought a case where a
member of the church had found
845
00:49:31,700 --> 00:49:35,400
out about a brothel and brought
it to the judge and the judge
846
00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:37,500
because they this can, you know,
conspirators.
847
00:49:37,500 --> 00:49:39,500
Like we read the book of Mormon.
They protect each other in their
848
00:49:39,500 --> 00:49:43,200
crimes instead of arrest.
Instead of throwing the guy that
849
00:49:43,200 --> 00:49:46,200
owned the brothel and run.
The ran the brothel in jail.
850
00:49:46,500 --> 00:49:49,600
He throws the Mormon in jail
instead.
851
00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:58,600
And so they just it was this was
the through legal means through
852
00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:01,300
cultural.
Means they work to change Utah.
853
00:50:01,300 --> 00:50:04,300
To make us more like the world.
Yeah.
854
00:50:04,500 --> 00:50:07,100
And you brought up another group
that I want to talk about for
855
00:50:07,100 --> 00:50:09,400
just a second.
That's the, the Fabian
856
00:50:09,400 --> 00:50:10,700
socialist.
Yeah.
857
00:50:10,700 --> 00:50:14,900
And they're not as well known as
maybe some some of these, you
858
00:50:14,908 --> 00:50:17,900
know, like Bohemian Grove or
something like that but they
859
00:50:17,900 --> 00:50:20,900
were just as Insidious right.
I mean When you do the history
860
00:50:20,900 --> 00:50:23,700
on them, you know, National
level, for sure.
861
00:50:23,700 --> 00:50:26,300
Yeah, right.
They took their name from the
862
00:50:26,300 --> 00:50:31,500
Roman general, Fabian, who was
famous for fighting Wars of
863
00:50:31,500 --> 00:50:33,800
attrition, basically just
saying, you know, I think we can
864
00:50:33,800 --> 00:50:35,700
Outlast.
Yeah, I think we'll just kill
865
00:50:35,700 --> 00:50:39,300
you with a Thousand Cuts and
write down two.
866
00:50:41,400 --> 00:50:46,300
And I saw one once myself on a,
on a trip that I took back to
867
00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:49,800
England.
You can still see the original
868
00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:53,200
Regional meeting place, where
the Fabian socialist met, and
869
00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:56,000
one of the guys there was George
Bernard Shaw, right?
870
00:50:56,000 --> 00:51:00,000
And he's, he's a, you know,
playwright and he's beloved.
871
00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:02,300
But if you listen to what he
said, he's kind of a horrific
872
00:51:02,300 --> 00:51:06,300
individual, but there's a
stained glass window of them,
873
00:51:06,300 --> 00:51:10,500
kind of heating up the globe and
trying to reshape it more to
874
00:51:10,500 --> 00:51:14,500
their heart's desire, right?
And where they may not have had
875
00:51:14,500 --> 00:51:19,100
Direct ties to Utah.
There certainly seem to be a big
876
00:51:19,100 --> 00:51:21,400
hand and kind of The granddaddy
of them all.
877
00:51:21,400 --> 00:51:25,700
Well they, they kind of did.
I mean, indirect well, I mean,
878
00:51:25,700 --> 00:51:27,100
they had people coming here,
you're willing.
879
00:51:27,100 --> 00:51:31,600
God, be I mentioned earlier, he
call himself a William, Robert
880
00:51:31,600 --> 00:51:35,800
own Mormon, and so, a lot of
people have no idea.
881
00:51:35,800 --> 00:51:38,300
Robert Owen is, I mean was
right.
882
00:51:38,300 --> 00:51:42,600
And if you went to church on
Sunday and in somebody said, I'm
883
00:51:42,600 --> 00:51:44,900
a robber told Mormon, but they
look at you, like, you were
884
00:51:44,900 --> 00:51:48,300
insane.
But so, but what God be meant by
885
00:51:48,300 --> 00:51:51,900
that was because Robert Owen was
The father of Communism, you
886
00:51:51,900 --> 00:51:57,200
know before before Karl Marx
there was Robert Owen, Robert
887
00:51:57,200 --> 00:52:01,300
Owen was the one that trained
Karl Marx and who trained.
888
00:52:01,900 --> 00:52:06,500
Robert Owen Madame blavatsky who
started the Lucifer Lucifer
889
00:52:06,700 --> 00:52:10,900
Lucifer trust and the
theosophical society is what it
890
00:52:10,900 --> 00:52:15,100
was changed to afterwards.
And so and so you have Robert
891
00:52:15,100 --> 00:52:20,200
Owen who was in the 18 starting
in the 1830s and 1840s 40s in
892
00:52:20,207 --> 00:52:22,700
the United States was setting up
these.
893
00:52:22,700 --> 00:52:29,100
Socialist Utopia has mean, you
know, these communes and Joe, we
894
00:52:29,100 --> 00:52:31,400
read about it and Joseph Smith.
And the history of the church
895
00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:34,300
says he attended a lecture on
socialism and he says he didn't
896
00:52:34,300 --> 00:52:36,500
believe the doctrine.
So that's one.
897
00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:39,600
One extra thing to say, you
know, Joseph Smith taught United
898
00:52:39,600 --> 00:52:42,300
order.
He knew about socialism said, he
899
00:52:42,300 --> 00:52:44,700
didn't believe the doctrine of
socialism, even though we
900
00:52:44,700 --> 00:52:46,100
believe the doctrine of United
order.
901
00:52:46,100 --> 00:52:50,700
So, Joseph Smith, you know, I'd
order socialism at the Thing the
902
00:52:50,700 --> 00:52:53,000
lecture on socialism that he
attended and saying you didn't
903
00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:56,700
believe the doctrine, it was a
Robert Owen lecture on socialism
904
00:52:57,300 --> 00:53:03,100
and so that whole you know that
connection to you know, Robert
905
00:53:03,100 --> 00:53:07,200
Owen all the way to William God
be to Utah and the thing and the
906
00:53:07,207 --> 00:53:12,000
Socialists is pretty clear and
that influenced we can see it
907
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:13,700
all the way today.
Basically, everything that rock,
908
00:53:13,700 --> 00:53:17,600
that bullying, God the wanted to
move the church to in the 1860s
909
00:53:18,300 --> 00:53:20,900
and 70s is real.
See where the church is at
910
00:53:20,900 --> 00:53:22,200
today.
Yeah.
911
00:53:22,600 --> 00:53:25,600
And you know you mentioned
Madame blavatsky.
912
00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:30,700
Yeah.
And and and her societies people
913
00:53:30,700 --> 00:53:35,000
forget that she single-handedly
gave Adolf Hitler.
914
00:53:35,100 --> 00:53:42,300
Most of his ideas on the Aryan
race and all those occult myths
915
00:53:42,300 --> 00:53:47,100
that the that the Nazi party
really held to as their gospel
916
00:53:47,500 --> 00:53:49,700
and so this is dark Insidious
stuff.
917
00:53:49,900 --> 00:53:52,500
The more you, you kind of dive
into it.
918
00:53:52,600 --> 00:53:56,400
It's it's hard to call it
conspiracy at this point because
919
00:53:56,400 --> 00:53:59,400
it's all out in the open.
Well, Still conspiracy
920
00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:01,900
conspiracy theory would be in
the alley, you know, is the
921
00:54:01,900 --> 00:54:04,400
thing that's people like, oh,
that's terrorizing, this is a
922
00:54:04,408 --> 00:54:08,300
conspiracy fact.
Most people working in secret to
923
00:54:08,300 --> 00:54:13,000
do evil things.
And, you know, most people like
924
00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:16,800
you say, don't know about it.
And so, even though, even though
925
00:54:16,800 --> 00:54:20,400
the information is available,
the fact that People aren't
926
00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:22,600
knowing about it and they're
not, you know, broadcasting the
927
00:54:22,607 --> 00:54:25,900
news still makes it a secret
and, you know, in most people's
928
00:54:25,900 --> 00:54:27,000
eyes.
But yeah, you're right.
929
00:54:27,100 --> 00:54:29,100
That they are being out in the
open in the information is
930
00:54:29,107 --> 00:54:31,600
there.
And so, if anybody wants it,
931
00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:34,100
it's not hard to find.
Yeah, yeah.
932
00:54:34,100 --> 00:54:37,500
And and the more you look at
these people and you start
933
00:54:37,500 --> 00:54:40,600
seeing who they're associating
with or who picked up there,
934
00:54:40,600 --> 00:54:44,600
cause the darker gets, right?
You look at Margaret's, you look
935
00:54:44,600 --> 00:54:48,400
at Margaret Sanger from Planned
Parenthood, who was just adored
936
00:54:48,400 --> 00:54:52,300
by the far left.
She attended klan rallies.
937
00:54:53,100 --> 00:54:58,600
I mean, she was she was a
horrible human being, but yet
938
00:54:58,600 --> 00:55:03,100
she is held up as the standard
of of reproductive care, right?
939
00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:07,700
Um, so you start the podcast.
You start your videos?
940
00:55:08,400 --> 00:55:11,400
Yeah.
When did you realize holy cow?
941
00:55:11,400 --> 00:55:15,200
This is gaining traction.
You know, it's you know, it's
942
00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:18,000
one of those things where it's a
slow float regimen, all of a
943
00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:20,500
sudden, you know, you're doing
this for seven eight years and
944
00:55:20,500 --> 00:55:24,800
all of a sudden, boom, it hits.
And it's it was during the fake
945
00:55:24,800 --> 00:55:30,300
pandemic 2020.
And we had on a nurse that came
946
00:55:30,300 --> 00:55:34,100
on and she exposed what was
going on and at Intermountain
947
00:55:34,100 --> 00:55:37,700
Healthcare.
And that just, you know, people
948
00:55:37,700 --> 00:55:41,700
were people were itching for the
truth because there was nobody
949
00:55:41,700 --> 00:55:45,400
else really talking about it.
you know, when, when it was two
950
00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:49,100
weeks to flatten the curve and
you couldn't have 10 people at a
951
00:55:49,107 --> 00:55:53,000
meeting, We got people together
at the Capitol.
952
00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:55,500
We had 20 people, when it was
illegal to have 10.
953
00:55:55,500 --> 00:55:58,700
We had 20 at the Capitol having
a picnic in the face of the
954
00:55:58,707 --> 00:56:00,700
governor, right?
And then when it was illegal to
955
00:56:00,700 --> 00:56:03,900
have restaurants open, we go to
a restaurant, we set a picnic
956
00:56:03,900 --> 00:56:09,600
tables and and we lunch at the
at the, at the, at the
957
00:56:09,600 --> 00:56:12,800
restaurant and we open up a
restaurant when they're closed.
958
00:56:12,800 --> 00:56:18,400
And so getting these things that
are just so different that was I
959
00:56:18,400 --> 00:56:21,900
think people were just get a mix
of People were reaching for
960
00:56:21,900 --> 00:56:23,400
their like that.
I know there's something wrong
961
00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:26,100
but I can't place it.
Here's some people that are you
962
00:56:26,100 --> 00:56:29,600
know doing something and then on
the other side you have these
963
00:56:29,600 --> 00:56:33,300
Psychopaths that I hope they're
embarrassed now that were, you
964
00:56:33,300 --> 00:56:36,300
know, calling the police on us
and calling us biological
965
00:56:36,300 --> 00:56:39,200
terrorists.
And so with you have these
966
00:56:39,200 --> 00:56:40,700
people that were so angry with
us.
967
00:56:41,100 --> 00:56:43,600
And you have these people that
were like, recognizing there was
968
00:56:43,600 --> 00:56:46,800
something wrong with the
official line and it was just at
969
00:56:47,100 --> 00:56:50,600
just the right right time that
we were putting stuff together.
970
00:56:50,700 --> 00:56:54,800
That really started to catch
steam there right on?
971
00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:56,700
Yeah, no.
I thought we'd done since has
972
00:56:56,700 --> 00:57:00,000
been able to expand on that,
right?
973
00:57:00,100 --> 00:57:01,900
What kind of pushback did you
get?
974
00:57:02,400 --> 00:57:06,800
I mean, obviously, look, there's
there certain and I imagine
975
00:57:06,800 --> 00:57:08,700
this, this conversation will be
one of them.
976
00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:12,500
There's, I have a YouTube
channel that I'll put my, some
977
00:57:12,500 --> 00:57:15,700
of my podcast on.
But there's others that I know.
978
00:57:15,700 --> 00:57:18,600
I don't dare to put on and just
leave up at my website for
979
00:57:18,600 --> 00:57:23,700
people to go to Because I know
darn, well, it will get flagged
980
00:57:23,700 --> 00:57:27,300
and take taken down.
Did you, did you encounter much
981
00:57:27,300 --> 00:57:31,600
of that yourself in this?
So we've been I've been planning
982
00:57:31,600 --> 00:57:34,100
on that since day one.
I knew they've been doing that
983
00:57:34,100 --> 00:57:36,200
for a long time.
They shut people down, they shut
984
00:57:36,200 --> 00:57:39,600
down their PayPal accounts.
I knew it was definitely a
985
00:57:39,607 --> 00:57:43,300
possibility any time.
And so and I regularly get
986
00:57:43,500 --> 00:57:47,800
strikes but I don't get enough
strikes to get permanently
987
00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:51,700
banned because I'm not saying it
won't happen.
988
00:57:51,700 --> 00:57:54,500
You know, it probably I plan on
it, it probably will be
989
00:57:54,500 --> 00:57:58,700
happening.
But i-i've consciously done
990
00:57:58,700 --> 00:58:03,500
things, where II title a video,
something to try, and go around,
991
00:58:03,700 --> 00:58:07,200
get people to realize what's
going on in the video, but use
992
00:58:07,200 --> 00:58:10,300
words that the YouTube's
algorithms you have to be.
993
00:58:10,600 --> 00:58:14,000
You have to so that way as a
person has to specifically
994
00:58:14,100 --> 00:58:19,600
report the video Before instead
of because there's if you use
995
00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:22,800
certain words, the algorithm,
the computer will shut your
996
00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:26,000
video down and cut you off, you
know, if it's in the video, if
997
00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:29,200
you're saying certain words and
so that shows up in there, you
998
00:58:29,207 --> 00:58:31,900
know, they're closed captioning.
So that way, they know what
999
00:58:31,900 --> 00:58:35,100
you're saying, then they, they
can flag you and shut you down
1000
00:58:35,100 --> 00:58:36,700
just for the computer without a
person.
1001
00:58:37,100 --> 00:58:41,900
And so I've been very careful to
you to use words and to use
1002
00:58:41,900 --> 00:58:47,200
descriptions that will you know
that will remove that will
1003
00:58:47,500 --> 00:58:52,100
mitigate the possibility and so
it still happens but then I you
1004
00:58:52,100 --> 00:58:56,800
know they they say I can't post
a new video for a week and so
1005
00:58:56,800 --> 00:58:59,100
during that week I make sure
that okay what am I planning?
1006
00:58:59,300 --> 00:59:02,700
What am I going to be doing?
And then it's a we use the other
1007
00:59:03,000 --> 00:59:06,100
alternatives to kind of put the
videos out there that are banned
1008
00:59:06,100 --> 00:59:09,100
by YouTuber that we think
there's no way to Around the
1009
00:59:09,100 --> 00:59:11,200
algorithms.
We just have to put it on the
1010
00:59:11,200 --> 00:59:14,300
alternative platforms.
Right, right.
1011
00:59:14,300 --> 00:59:15,700
Yeah.
That's that was a whole reason.
1012
00:59:15,700 --> 00:59:20,400
I made a website for the podcast
was because I was like, you
1013
00:59:20,400 --> 00:59:22,600
know, at some point.
Yep.
1014
00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:25,400
At some point they're going to
come for you, right?
1015
00:59:25,400 --> 00:59:27,200
I mean been the worst.
Yep.
1016
00:59:27,400 --> 00:59:30,700
I've never gotten booted from
like spreaker.
1017
00:59:30,700 --> 00:59:34,100
I've never got a warning from
spreaker, the podcast platforms
1018
00:59:34,100 --> 00:59:36,400
for whatever reason, maybe
because it's there's fewer
1019
00:59:36,900 --> 00:59:40,800
people on them.
But I haven't they don't care
1020
00:59:40,800 --> 00:59:43,100
about what you can pretty much
as long as you're not telling
1021
00:59:43,100 --> 00:59:46,600
somebody to hurt somebody else
here, okay, right.
1022
00:59:47,300 --> 00:59:52,100
So that, that's awesome.
So you you've recently made the
1023
00:59:52,107 --> 00:59:55,700
switch from defending Utah to
tree of Liberty Society.
1024
00:59:56,000 --> 00:59:58,800
Correct?
What if it's not too personal?
1025
00:59:58,800 --> 01:00:01,600
If you're comfortable, can you
tell us what the, what the
1026
01:00:01,600 --> 01:00:04,400
impetus for that was?
So, it's been something.
1027
01:00:04,400 --> 01:00:06,800
I've been working on for about a
year now.
1028
01:00:06,800 --> 01:00:09,900
There's, you know, the idea, Get
in back of my head just a little
1029
01:00:09,900 --> 01:00:10,900
bit.
Just because people are always
1030
01:00:10,900 --> 01:00:13,200
asking, hey, don't you have
something for Idaho?
1031
01:00:13,200 --> 01:00:14,600
Don't you have something for New
York?
1032
01:00:14,600 --> 01:00:17,400
Don't you have some First Texas.
And so that was always kind of
1033
01:00:17,408 --> 01:00:22,800
in the back of my mind, but with
my partner that I started
1034
01:00:22,800 --> 01:00:26,300
defending Utah with, really
stopped being involved for a
1035
01:00:26,308 --> 01:00:30,600
while, and then he would do
things that would hurt.
1036
01:00:30,600 --> 01:00:33,800
You know, he would post an
article, somebody would argue
1037
01:00:33,800 --> 01:00:37,900
with him, he would argue with
them in a way that would, you
1038
01:00:37,900 --> 01:00:40,700
know, I thought, Felt was
damaging to my reputation
1039
01:00:40,700 --> 01:00:42,600
because I'm the face.
I was the face of the
1040
01:00:42,600 --> 01:00:45,700
organization.
He wouldn't stop doing that kind
1041
01:00:45,700 --> 01:00:47,400
of stuff.
And there was other behaviors
1042
01:00:48,100 --> 01:00:49,900
that I just didn't want to be
associated with.
1043
01:00:49,900 --> 01:00:55,900
And so you about, you know, a
year ago now, I really started
1044
01:00:55,900 --> 01:00:59,900
the the shift over.
And then, in April May of this
1045
01:00:59,900 --> 01:01:02,700
year, it was, it was just a hard
switch where it was just like,
1046
01:01:02,700 --> 01:01:05,400
okay, I'm done dealing with with
that.
1047
01:01:05,400 --> 01:01:08,500
And because he owned the URL, I
couldn't.
1048
01:01:08,600 --> 01:01:12,200
That with me and so I was like,
okay this is a good time to do
1049
01:01:12,200 --> 01:01:18,200
the National Organization and to
protect my reputation and not to
1050
01:01:18,200 --> 01:01:19,700
be associate with the things
that he was working on.
1051
01:01:20,200 --> 01:01:22,200
And so that's that's what I was
doing.
1052
01:01:22,900 --> 01:01:27,000
That's awesome well and it's
often out of those.
1053
01:01:29,500 --> 01:01:33,600
Those sorts of things that your
visual get pushed along farther
1054
01:01:33,600 --> 01:01:37,000
right now.
It seems as I've bumped around a
1055
01:01:37,008 --> 01:01:40,700
little bit on the site there and
stuff, it doesn't seem like it's
1056
01:01:41,300 --> 01:01:45,600
geared towards just Utah, right?
It's a national, it's a national
1057
01:01:45,600 --> 01:01:49,000
thing now, which is super
exciting to see ya.
1058
01:01:49,600 --> 01:01:54,200
So, so, with with that, let's
talk about this.
1059
01:01:54,500 --> 01:01:59,800
We've talked about the history a
little bit on how these 80s in
1060
01:01:59,800 --> 01:02:05,100
these combinations moved into
Utah and and that greater Mormon
1061
01:02:05,100 --> 01:02:08,300
Corridor, if you will.
Yeah, let's talk real quick
1062
01:02:08,300 --> 01:02:12,900
about where we stand today.
What is the state of Freedom
1063
01:02:13,200 --> 01:02:20,400
within that Mormon corridor?
It's it's fragile.
1064
01:02:20,700 --> 01:02:23,500
It's on a teeter and it could go
any way.
1065
01:02:23,500 --> 01:02:26,400
Either way at any time, this is
the first time.
1066
01:02:27,800 --> 01:02:31,300
That local governments have
received opposition.
1067
01:02:31,500 --> 01:02:33,900
It's always been opposition as
against what's going on in
1068
01:02:33,900 --> 01:02:37,300
Congress, but actual opposition
on the local level,
1069
01:02:37,300 --> 01:02:40,300
understanding the conspiracy in
the local level, as never
1070
01:02:40,300 --> 01:02:43,100
happened before, like an Idaho
yet.
1071
01:02:43,100 --> 01:02:46,900
Brad little where he was
arresting, even the conservative
1072
01:02:46,900 --> 01:02:50,400
state was arresting people for
having a sing-along in a parking
1073
01:02:50,400 --> 01:02:54,700
lot.
In Utah, That didn't happen
1074
01:02:54,700 --> 01:02:58,100
because we had opposition.
So, as long as we have the
1075
01:02:58,100 --> 01:03:02,100
understanding and we oppose the
Tyranny, you know, where you
1076
01:03:02,100 --> 01:03:05,700
where you where people are like,
oh, just put up with it until it
1077
01:03:05,700 --> 01:03:08,700
goes away.
They think that's going to make
1078
01:03:08,700 --> 01:03:09,600
it go.
But no, no.
1079
01:03:09,900 --> 01:03:10,800
Where did you see that
happening?
1080
01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:14,600
California and New York and
where are the places, where they
1081
01:03:14,600 --> 01:03:17,600
had the mandates?
And the shutdown's the longest
1082
01:03:17,800 --> 01:03:21,600
where they had compliance where
there was resistance and, um,
1083
01:03:21,600 --> 01:03:24,600
compliance and even, you know,
No, going further where we were
1084
01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:28,000
going to government officials
office their homes.
1085
01:03:28,200 --> 01:03:31,100
They, you know, the founding
fathers said, you know, when
1086
01:03:31,200 --> 01:03:34,500
when the freedom is where is
when the government fears, the
1087
01:03:34,500 --> 01:03:37,100
people, you know, you have
Tierney when the people fear the
1088
01:03:37,100 --> 01:03:39,900
government.
And so, it was fantastic that
1089
01:03:39,900 --> 01:03:43,600
the government was afraid
because we were showing up in
1090
01:03:43,600 --> 01:03:46,600
front of their houses and
staying.
1091
01:03:46,600 --> 01:03:52,000
We are not going to obey you And
so, because of that, we were
1092
01:03:52,000 --> 01:03:56,500
able to get things that didn't
have to happen in places like
1093
01:03:56,500 --> 01:03:59,000
Idaho, even didn't happen in
Utah.
1094
01:03:59,600 --> 01:04:06,000
But we have this balance where
you have the present, the church
1095
01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:08,600
saying, everybody should get the
kill shot.
1096
01:04:08,800 --> 01:04:12,800
You have them, you have David
Bednar speaking at the G20, or
1097
01:04:12,800 --> 01:04:16,100
G8 Summit saying that the church
has should be used to promote,
1098
01:04:16,100 --> 01:04:17,900
the think the government's
official line.
1099
01:04:18,300 --> 01:04:21,100
And so you will.
We have, you know, the biggest
1100
01:04:21,100 --> 01:04:26,100
influential organization in the
state, you know, using their
1101
01:04:26,100 --> 01:04:27,800
influence to help promote these
things.
1102
01:04:27,800 --> 01:04:30,200
That makes it.
That makes it difficult, but I
1103
01:04:30,200 --> 01:04:33,900
think a lot of people are waking
up the problem that we have
1104
01:04:33,900 --> 01:04:36,700
right now is people are waking
up to what's going on and
1105
01:04:36,700 --> 01:04:39,700
they're throwing the baby out
with the bathwater and they're
1106
01:04:39,700 --> 01:04:42,500
throwing out either, you know,
the restored gospel or the
1107
01:04:42,500 --> 01:04:44,600
restore or they're throwing out
religion as a whole.
1108
01:04:44,600 --> 01:04:48,400
And and that's you know, that's
that's short-sighted it's
1109
01:04:48,400 --> 01:04:50,400
because they Understand that,
that's why history.
1110
01:04:50,400 --> 01:04:54,100
So important you had to
understand the big picture to
1111
01:04:54,300 --> 01:04:56,600
make sure that you don't throw
the baby out with the bathwater.
1112
01:04:56,600 --> 01:05:01,600
But that is that is a problem
that we face because we have
1113
01:05:01,900 --> 01:05:04,900
that issue of those individuals
saying and doing those types of
1114
01:05:04,900 --> 01:05:09,100
things, which then the
legislature says, oh, you know
1115
01:05:09,100 --> 01:05:14,900
that they you have, you know,
Cox talking about how the pope
1116
01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:17,800
and the present, the church all
says to do these things.
1117
01:05:17,800 --> 01:05:23,700
And so he's able to Use those
those churches as a crutch to
1118
01:05:23,700 --> 01:05:29,400
excuse his tyrannical behavior
and so it's important for us as
1119
01:05:29,400 --> 01:05:33,700
individuals now to be able to
understand courage principles as
1120
01:05:33,700 --> 01:05:36,200
much as possible so that is
individually.
1121
01:05:36,400 --> 01:05:39,700
We can do the right thing, no
matter what other others as
1122
01:05:39,700 --> 01:05:43,100
either individuals or others, as
organizations do, we can still
1123
01:05:43,100 --> 01:05:45,000
do it.
And so because we've been able
1124
01:05:45,000 --> 01:05:49,300
to build that understanding,
it's like a good Shouldn't
1125
01:05:49,300 --> 01:05:51,800
against tyranny.
We're now we've been able to
1126
01:05:51,800 --> 01:05:54,700
teach enough about the proper
role of government about
1127
01:05:54,700 --> 01:05:57,800
nullification and how these
things are righteous principles,
1128
01:05:57,800 --> 01:06:01,200
scriptural, scripturally based
principles that people can say,
1129
01:06:01,200 --> 01:06:04,200
you know what, you know, I still
believe in the restoration but
1130
01:06:04,200 --> 01:06:07,000
I'm sorry you're wrong.
I'm not going to do that.
1131
01:06:07,500 --> 01:06:10,600
And so it's you know, this is T2
that goes back and forth.
1132
01:06:10,700 --> 01:06:14,500
I think if we left it alone it
would this vacuum would come in
1133
01:06:14,500 --> 01:06:16,900
and Tierney would sweep in much
faster.
1134
01:06:17,300 --> 01:06:20,200
But because we're holding,
Adding back the wave the tidal
1135
01:06:20,200 --> 01:06:25,000
wave.
It's I think we're at least
1136
01:06:25,200 --> 01:06:28,400
holding steady and we're working
to go on the offense and push
1137
01:06:28,400 --> 01:06:32,700
back.
You know, I remember seeing the
1138
01:06:32,700 --> 01:06:41,200
video of the one mother who in
Idaho who dared to defy The the
1139
01:06:41,200 --> 01:06:43,700
caution tape on the playground
equal?
1140
01:06:43,700 --> 01:06:45,100
Yeah.
Brady I think it was.
1141
01:06:45,200 --> 01:06:46,000
Yep.
Yep.
1142
01:06:46,000 --> 01:06:50,400
And she got, she got arrested.
Yeah and to me she still do what
1143
01:06:50,400 --> 01:06:54,500
that's crazy.
Yeah, to me that was the biggest
1144
01:06:54,500 --> 01:06:56,500
red flag.
Not because it happened, but
1145
01:06:56,500 --> 01:06:59,300
because it happened in Idaho,
right?
1146
01:06:59,300 --> 01:07:02,000
Right.
I mean, this sounds bad.
1147
01:07:02,000 --> 01:07:05,400
I kind of almost expected it a
little bit in Utah.
1148
01:07:05,400 --> 01:07:09,200
Just because there are there,
there always seemed to be a
1149
01:07:09,207 --> 01:07:11,400
bigger.
Contingent of progressives here
1150
01:07:11,400 --> 01:07:12,500
than Idaho.
Yes.
1151
01:07:12,500 --> 01:07:15,000
Alex, he's bigger than Boise,
right?
1152
01:07:15,200 --> 01:07:20,400
So when I saw it in Idaho,
that's when my heart hit my
1153
01:07:20,400 --> 01:07:24,400
stomach because I was like, okay
if it's happening there, yeah,
1154
01:07:24,700 --> 01:07:26,800
there there is no safe place
anymore.
1155
01:07:26,900 --> 01:07:30,300
There is no place that you can
just run queue and make the
1156
01:07:30,300 --> 01:07:34,500
assumption that that freedom is
going to be protected if it's
1157
01:07:34,500 --> 01:07:39,100
happening in Idaho, right?
It, you you got some problems,
1158
01:07:39,300 --> 01:07:41,600
you got Got, you got some
problems, you got to look at.
1159
01:07:41,900 --> 01:07:49,700
So with with that said, and and
we know that it's teetering on
1160
01:07:49,700 --> 01:07:53,200
the brink, so to speak, right?
Going back and forth.
1161
01:07:53,600 --> 01:07:56,300
Are you hopeful or are you a
little more pessimistic?
1162
01:07:59,300 --> 01:08:02,100
I'm hopeful.
Well, I'm not hopeful.
1163
01:08:02,600 --> 01:08:06,000
I believe that the conspiracy
will be defeated.
1164
01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:08,300
I think the scriptures are clear
that before.
1165
01:08:08,800 --> 01:08:11,800
The Savior comes, I did a
presentation on this that the
1166
01:08:12,300 --> 01:08:15,200
before the Savior Comes, The
Conspiracy will be defeated.
1167
01:08:15,700 --> 01:08:19,000
And so we just need to make sure
that we are waking up.
1168
01:08:19,000 --> 01:08:22,200
This sufficient amount that we
need to be able to work on that
1169
01:08:22,200 --> 01:08:27,399
opposition and and and not be
afraid when people with certain
1170
01:08:27,399 --> 01:08:29,700
titles.
Saying and do certain things
1171
01:08:29,700 --> 01:08:33,300
that we stand strong for
principles, no matter what.
1172
01:08:33,300 --> 01:08:38,899
And so, we're seeing that.
And so, I'm optimistic because I
1173
01:08:38,899 --> 01:08:41,700
think that it was, you know,
it's one of those moments where
1174
01:08:41,700 --> 01:08:46,000
you have 9/11 where the
conspiracy really just went the.
1175
01:08:46,000 --> 01:08:49,500
Oh, they usually try the again,
the one the Frog approach.
1176
01:08:49,500 --> 01:08:52,600
But with big events, like 9/11
and the FED pandemic.
1177
01:08:52,600 --> 01:08:57,600
They move the huge steps forward
and they try to get more done
1178
01:08:57,600 --> 01:08:59,100
than they did.
Did in the last fifteen hundred
1179
01:08:59,100 --> 01:09:03,200
years and I think I think the
fake pandemic was just a little
1180
01:09:03,200 --> 01:09:07,700
bit too much a little bit too
long if they had left it at two
1181
01:09:07,700 --> 01:09:10,500
weeks to flatten the curve.
I think they could have gotten
1182
01:09:10,500 --> 01:09:13,899
away with a lot, but because
they made it last two to three
1183
01:09:13,899 --> 01:09:17,200
years.
People are like yeah you know it
1184
01:09:17,200 --> 01:09:22,000
woke way too many people up and
so we just need to be there to
1185
01:09:22,000 --> 01:09:26,000
direct you know that that energy
in a positive and effective
1186
01:09:26,000 --> 01:09:29,200
manner.
You know, I You make a good
1187
01:09:29,200 --> 01:09:35,700
point because when the pandemic
first kicked off, I worked for a
1188
01:09:35,700 --> 01:09:40,700
local government agency with in
Utah, I won't say which one or
1189
01:09:40,700 --> 01:09:43,500
whatever.
But I was one of the guys who
1190
01:09:43,500 --> 01:09:47,500
said I'll keep going, and I'll
keep going to the office, right?
1191
01:09:47,500 --> 01:09:53,600
Yeah, I wasn't always a Mormon.
So, I just, I was a, I was
1192
01:09:53,600 --> 01:09:59,000
naturally good at drinking as a
younger man and I'm sure my
1193
01:09:59,000 --> 01:10:02,900
thought process it probably a
little bit flawed was coital,
1194
01:10:02,900 --> 01:10:04,800
get in there and be like, we
gotta get out of here, this guy,
1195
01:10:04,800 --> 01:10:08,600
this place is horrible, right?
But my thought was I'll just
1196
01:10:08,600 --> 01:10:12,000
I'll just I'll keep going to
work and so I would see the
1197
01:10:12,000 --> 01:10:15,400
numbers come in right because we
had to have these meetings every
1198
01:10:15,800 --> 01:10:19,200
every week or so, where we would
get the numbers in the
1199
01:10:19,200 --> 01:10:21,800
demographic, right?
And so I'm looking at the
1200
01:10:21,800 --> 01:10:24,900
demographics and I don't want to
make light of anybody dying,
1201
01:10:25,000 --> 01:10:26,700
right?
That's not, that's not what I'm
1202
01:10:26,700 --> 01:10:28,600
saying.
However, You looked at the
1203
01:10:28,600 --> 01:10:34,400
numbers, you were seeing that
the vast majority of the people
1204
01:10:34,400 --> 01:10:39,800
who were passing away were older
than the average life expectancy
1205
01:10:39,800 --> 01:10:43,900
of a person, period, right?
It was always with not of it
1206
01:10:43,900 --> 01:10:45,900
was, you know, they're always
fiddling with the wording that
1207
01:10:45,900 --> 01:10:46,800
they'd use.
Yes.
1208
01:10:46,800 --> 01:10:51,600
And I think the, the last
average I saw was that most
1209
01:10:51,600 --> 01:10:56,900
people who died from covid.
Had 2.5 comorbidity factors.
1210
01:10:57,000 --> 01:10:59,300
Yeah.
And these Aren't just factors
1211
01:10:59,300 --> 01:11:01,900
like dudes a little chunky,
right?
1212
01:11:01,900 --> 01:11:07,400
Or you know, whatever its people
who are probably halfway out the
1213
01:11:07,400 --> 01:11:10,100
door and convalescent homes
already, right?
1214
01:11:10,100 --> 01:11:13,000
And again, I don't mean to make
light of that cuz I don't ever
1215
01:11:13,000 --> 01:11:16,000
want to minimize somebody's
pain.
1216
01:11:16,300 --> 01:11:20,100
But at the same time as a
society, I felt like, okay, we
1217
01:11:20,100 --> 01:11:22,900
need to take a step back because
I'm thinking, the Cure now is
1218
01:11:22,900 --> 01:11:28,300
worse than the disease itself.
And so that was the first Time I
1219
01:11:28,300 --> 01:11:31,600
can certainly remember thinking.
Yeah, this this is gone off the
1220
01:11:31,600 --> 01:11:35,900
rails horribly, right?
Um, because I was I was willing
1221
01:11:35,900 --> 01:11:37,800
to give him the benefit of the
doubt at first, right?
1222
01:11:37,800 --> 01:11:41,700
I was willing to say, look two
weeks doesn't seem extreme.
1223
01:11:41,700 --> 01:11:45,200
We didn't have a lot of data.
The funny thing about communist
1224
01:11:45,200 --> 01:11:48,000
regimes like China's they're not
necessarily forthcoming with
1225
01:11:48,000 --> 01:11:51,100
information.
So we didn't have a ton of data
1226
01:11:51,100 --> 01:11:55,200
to go off of so I felt like two
weeks seems Seems appropriate
1227
01:11:55,600 --> 01:11:59,500
but after that it got it got
Tway, bad, and they move that
1228
01:11:59,500 --> 01:12:01,400
window, right?
And that's, that's what I've
1229
01:12:01,400 --> 01:12:04,000
noticed.
They do a ton is that they will
1230
01:12:04,000 --> 01:12:05,900
move the goalposts so to speak,
right?
1231
01:12:05,900 --> 01:12:08,900
So right, they'll have a goal in
mind and then when they get
1232
01:12:08,900 --> 01:12:11,100
pushed back they'll be like,
okay, we'll scale it back a
1233
01:12:11,100 --> 01:12:13,200
little bit.
Not realizing that they still
1234
01:12:13,200 --> 01:12:16,000
move due to full ten yards,
right?
1235
01:12:16,100 --> 01:12:17,600
Right.
It's so, they scaled it back
1236
01:12:17,600 --> 01:12:21,600
from 15 down to 10, but you've
still move that that ball in
1237
01:12:21,600 --> 01:12:23,000
that direction.
So to speak.
1238
01:12:23,400 --> 01:12:28,900
Right, what do you think, is the
biggest Issue right now.
1239
01:12:28,900 --> 01:12:34,400
Facing Utah.
In terms of preserving Freedom,
1240
01:12:34,400 --> 01:12:36,800
right?
Ignorant.
1241
01:12:36,900 --> 01:12:42,100
It's I would say it's a co-equal
with ignorance and apathy, you
1242
01:12:42,100 --> 01:12:46,500
have people not understanding
and you have people that kind of
1243
01:12:46,500 --> 01:12:49,900
understand and that they don't
care, they have the attitude of
1244
01:12:49,900 --> 01:12:53,200
the nothing, I can do about it.
And so, I think those two things
1245
01:12:53,200 --> 01:12:58,200
are what are what allow the The
Tyranny to be honored or more
1246
01:12:58,200 --> 01:13:01,800
than it should be.
What about from the government
1247
01:13:01,800 --> 01:13:03,600
and the things?
What do you think?
1248
01:13:03,600 --> 01:13:06,300
The biggest threat is coming
down the pike as far as
1249
01:13:06,900 --> 01:13:09,600
Government laws?
New, no new laws or anything
1250
01:13:09,600 --> 01:13:15,000
like that.
Absolutely, you will see an
1251
01:13:15,000 --> 01:13:21,600
increase in the agenda 21
situation with environmentalism
1252
01:13:21,900 --> 01:13:26,400
Will under the guise of
environmentalism increase tax on
1253
01:13:26,400 --> 01:13:30,700
property and on water.
We just had the the feds tell
1254
01:13:30,700 --> 01:13:34,100
us, we, you know, how much water
were allowed to get from the
1255
01:13:34,100 --> 01:13:38,300
Colorado River and so Cox today
announced, you know, as if he
1256
01:13:38,300 --> 01:13:40,900
was his idea that we're going to
use less water.
1257
01:13:41,100 --> 01:13:44,100
The Colorado River.
And so you're going to you're
1258
01:13:44,100 --> 01:13:50,600
going to see a lot more threats
against private property as on
1259
01:13:50,600 --> 01:13:54,800
the environmental front as well
as on the the culture war with
1260
01:13:54,800 --> 01:14:00,100
the what the sodomite and and
the black lives matter movement
1261
01:14:01,500 --> 01:14:05,700
affecting private homeowners and
businesses really going after
1262
01:14:05,700 --> 01:14:09,300
the increasing the attacks on
you know, with introducing
1263
01:14:09,300 --> 01:14:10,900
legislation on hate crimes
legislation.
1264
01:14:11,000 --> 01:14:15,000
Isolation.
And basically calling, you know,
1265
01:14:15,100 --> 01:14:17,800
anybody that wants freedom of
Association is going to be a
1266
01:14:18,000 --> 01:14:22,100
fused of a hate crime.
And as you know, as opposed to
1267
01:14:22,100 --> 01:14:25,000
somebody being, you know, if I
hurt someone, that's a crime,
1268
01:14:25,900 --> 01:14:27,700
it's really the about thought
control.
1269
01:14:27,800 --> 01:14:29,700
And so they want to be able to
control your thoughts.
1270
01:14:30,100 --> 01:14:34,500
Those are some big things that
the powers that be are on the
1271
01:14:34,500 --> 01:14:38,300
national as well as you know, we
see through the Chamber of
1272
01:14:38,300 --> 01:14:42,900
Commerce and the Alta Club
really pushing the Those two
1273
01:14:43,300 --> 01:14:49,100
agendas, the most, we saw a lot.
I think we're going to see
1274
01:14:49,100 --> 01:14:54,300
something else again with public
health orders in the future.
1275
01:14:54,300 --> 01:14:57,800
Because all of these things that
supposedly were passed by the
1276
01:14:57,800 --> 01:15:01,500
state legislature in Utah, to
protect, you know, to end mask
1277
01:15:01,500 --> 01:15:04,700
mandates and to make sure that
we didn't have, you know, Force
1278
01:15:04,700 --> 01:15:07,900
vaccinations.
All of those bills had
1279
01:15:08,200 --> 01:15:14,000
expiration dates and the Those.
So those so-called protections
1280
01:15:14,000 --> 01:15:17,800
will go away in 2024.
So I think they've got some
1281
01:15:17,800 --> 01:15:22,100
things up their sleeve for 2024
or soon thereafter.
1282
01:15:23,600 --> 01:15:27,500
Wow, that's a lot.
I mean that's, that's a lot of
1283
01:15:27,508 --> 01:15:29,300
stuff that you have to be
looking at.
1284
01:15:29,800 --> 01:15:34,800
And to top it all off, Ben, is I
look at it, I feel like we're
1285
01:15:36,600 --> 01:15:40,100
We're either at the moment or
fast approaching the moment at
1286
01:15:40,100 --> 01:15:45,700
which we need to really
re-evaluate where it is.
1287
01:15:46,300 --> 01:15:50,900
We're standing, right?
Because I feel like right now
1288
01:15:52,300 --> 01:15:53,500
You know, you look at
everything.
1289
01:15:53,500 --> 01:15:56,500
We've dealt been dealing with on
the national front.
1290
01:15:56,500 --> 01:15:58,300
Let's just go National for just
a minute.
1291
01:15:58,300 --> 01:16:02,300
We've had the pandemic, we've
had inflation, we still have
1292
01:16:02,300 --> 01:16:06,100
inflation, they've just managed
to curtail the numbers.
1293
01:16:06,800 --> 01:16:13,000
We've had shortages of supplies.
We've had, you know, the the war
1294
01:16:13,000 --> 01:16:18,300
going on in Ukraine.
I feel like we haven't ever had
1295
01:16:18,300 --> 01:16:21,700
to deal with this many things at
once simultaneously.
1296
01:16:23,200 --> 01:16:26,800
And I worry that we're standing
kind of at the edge of the
1297
01:16:26,800 --> 01:16:30,100
precipice and I'm glad you're
optimistic.
1298
01:16:30,100 --> 01:16:32,300
So I'll be honest with you, I'm
a little pessimistic when I
1299
01:16:32,300 --> 01:16:36,000
couldn't come to this, right?
Like, when I look at it all, I'm
1300
01:16:36,000 --> 01:16:40,300
like, hmm.
I don't I don't see how we can.
1301
01:16:42,600 --> 01:16:45,300
Can whether all these storms
that were at once?
1302
01:16:45,400 --> 01:16:47,900
Right now?
Having said that, I know God
1303
01:16:47,900 --> 01:16:51,800
loves dramatic endings, right?
We see that all the time where,
1304
01:16:52,100 --> 01:16:55,600
where I often?
And again, because I'm a simple
1305
01:16:55,600 --> 01:16:57,200
simple, man, I'll put it this
way.
1306
01:16:57,300 --> 01:17:01,500
It's often America seems to be
Rocky a lot in the Rocky movies,
1307
01:17:01,500 --> 01:17:03,700
right?
Just pounded to a pulp and
1308
01:17:03,700 --> 01:17:07,200
somehow, we pull ourselves up in
and figure it all out.
1309
01:17:08,200 --> 01:17:12,200
I'm hopeful it happens again,
but I think, I think for two
1310
01:17:12,400 --> 01:17:14,400
Long.
I've always looked and I had to
1311
01:17:14,400 --> 01:17:19,200
come to this conclusion.
Oh, probably probably two years
1312
01:17:19,200 --> 01:17:22,700
ago where I was looking for the
next founder, right?
1313
01:17:22,700 --> 01:17:25,900
I was looking for the next
Washington or the next Jefferson
1314
01:17:26,400 --> 01:17:29,100
or whoever it was to be that
guy.
1315
01:17:29,600 --> 01:17:32,000
Yeah.
I think we have to all be that
1316
01:17:32,000 --> 01:17:37,600
guy at this point, right?
Yes, yes that is everybody's
1317
01:17:37,600 --> 01:17:40,000
looking for someone else and
that's what we try.
1318
01:17:40,100 --> 01:17:43,100
That's what I tried to explain.
Try to instill, is that?
1319
01:17:43,100 --> 01:17:45,000
No, no, no.
This is your job.
1320
01:17:45,000 --> 01:17:48,700
This is your responsibility.
You cannot Pawn this off on to
1321
01:17:48,708 --> 01:17:51,000
somebody else.
You cannot just say, I'm going
1322
01:17:51,000 --> 01:17:55,400
to give this organization, you
know, some donation and they're
1323
01:17:55,400 --> 01:17:57,000
going to go solve this problem
for me.
1324
01:17:57,300 --> 01:18:00,500
This is something that we all
have to take a personal
1325
01:18:00,500 --> 01:18:05,100
ownership of and be willing to
engage, right?
1326
01:18:05,400 --> 01:18:09,000
How can we expect the same
blessings as previous
1327
01:18:09,000 --> 01:18:12,400
generations without paying the
same price?
1328
01:18:13,200 --> 01:18:15,800
It's it's it can't and won't
happen.
1329
01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:19,700
And so if we want the freedom
that they have, we have to pay
1330
01:18:19,700 --> 01:18:22,500
the same price if we're not
willing to do that.
1331
01:18:22,500 --> 01:18:26,500
Then we just we're saying we're
going to accept the chains that
1332
01:18:26,500 --> 01:18:31,800
are placed upon us and so I, you
know, I kind of I don't know if
1333
01:18:31,800 --> 01:18:34,700
it was a him, an aha, but I
qualified, you know, when I said
1334
01:18:34,700 --> 01:18:36,300
that earlier.
Because there are certain
1335
01:18:36,300 --> 01:18:41,500
aspects of it things are
definitely going to get hairy
1336
01:18:42,400 --> 01:18:45,300
the conspiracy that you know,
Satan wants his program
1337
01:18:45,300 --> 01:18:49,000
implemented by 2030.
They they are they are on fast
1338
01:18:49,000 --> 01:18:50,800
forward.
You mentioned all those
1339
01:18:50,800 --> 01:18:52,100
different things that are going
on.
1340
01:18:52,400 --> 01:18:55,600
And I think, you know, I've been
in this long enough where I
1341
01:18:55,600 --> 01:18:57,900
recognize that people always
think when they wake up, that's
1342
01:18:57,900 --> 01:19:01,600
when it's the worst.
And, you know, to set to certain
1343
01:19:01,600 --> 01:19:04,300
extent it's you know, this all
is the continuation like I
1344
01:19:04,308 --> 01:19:06,900
mentioned earlier.
But they're doing the same
1345
01:19:06,900 --> 01:19:10,500
thing, but all at the same time,
it's usually like, all of these
1346
01:19:10,500 --> 01:19:13,100
different things you mentioned.
They're just like, oh, that's
1347
01:19:13,100 --> 01:19:14,600
happening.
And then when that goes away,
1348
01:19:14,600 --> 01:19:17,100
the next thing happens.
But no, there are throwing all
1349
01:19:17,100 --> 01:19:20,000
of these things on us, at the
same time, because they're all
1350
01:19:20,000 --> 01:19:23,100
part of how they're going to
implement, their goals for
1351
01:19:23,100 --> 01:19:27,700
agenda. 2030.
And so they want to have their
1352
01:19:27,700 --> 01:19:33,500
new world order implemented by
then I'm going to do everything
1353
01:19:33,500 --> 01:19:38,100
I can to stop them. and so I
hope others will as well and I
1354
01:19:38,108 --> 01:19:43,200
believe that there will be
enough of us that are engaged
1355
01:19:43,200 --> 01:19:46,800
and willing to pay the price
that we will stop them from
1356
01:19:46,800 --> 01:19:55,300
doing so yeah, I I've looked at
this because again I being an
1357
01:19:55,300 --> 01:19:58,800
amateur historian, going back
and looking, I mean, don't get
1358
01:19:58,800 --> 01:20:03,200
me wrong, we had World War 2 and
we had you know we all our chips
1359
01:20:03,200 --> 01:20:06,600
have been on the table before
but I don't think like this and
1360
01:20:06,600 --> 01:20:09,900
as I go back and I look at it
and I want to preface this by
1361
01:20:09,900 --> 01:20:12,500
saying, I don't think Donald
Trump was the savior of the
1362
01:20:12,500 --> 01:20:18,000
Republic but people get mad at
me for saying that.
1363
01:20:18,100 --> 01:20:20,000
Yeah, that's okay, they can be
mad.
1364
01:20:20,100 --> 01:20:25,400
At me, I'm used to it by now.
Um, the thing I'll say is that
1365
01:20:25,400 --> 01:20:28,900
he scared the crap out of the
progressives because he
1366
01:20:28,900 --> 01:20:31,900
threatened to undo everything,
they'd done, right?
1367
01:20:31,900 --> 01:20:34,400
This was a hundred year plan,
right?
1368
01:20:34,400 --> 01:20:36,900
This?
What they understood that that,
1369
01:20:36,900 --> 01:20:39,800
yeah, we're not going to be able
to give them Fascism and
1370
01:20:39,800 --> 01:20:42,600
socialism right away.
They're going to have to take it
1371
01:20:42,600 --> 01:20:47,100
in dribs and drabs right here.
You had a guy come along, who
1372
01:20:47,100 --> 01:20:51,700
was from the outside who Had
threatened to do some things
1373
01:20:51,700 --> 01:20:54,000
that I think upset them and I
think as soon as they got him
1374
01:20:54,000 --> 01:20:56,300
out of office, they're like
we're not risking it again.
1375
01:20:56,900 --> 01:20:59,800
We're going to go Full Tilt and
we're just going to run this
1376
01:20:59,800 --> 01:21:01,700
through as quick as we can.
Do you think that's a fair
1377
01:21:01,700 --> 01:21:05,000
assessment?
I tend to disagree.
1378
01:21:05,000 --> 01:21:07,300
I think that Donald Trump is
false opposition.
1379
01:21:07,700 --> 01:21:09,700
Oh, come on.
There's a lot of and but you
1380
01:21:09,700 --> 01:21:13,500
know I think your ultimate
conclusion is definitely, you
1381
01:21:13,500 --> 01:21:17,600
know, really spot-on.
They are in a hurry, if you're
1382
01:21:17,600 --> 01:21:20,000
comfortable with it explained
that that you think he was.
1383
01:21:20,100 --> 01:21:23,000
False opposition.
He wasn't an Insider.
1384
01:21:23,000 --> 01:21:27,200
He's been a part of the inside
club for, you know, forever?
1385
01:21:27,400 --> 01:21:29,800
That's a fair point.
That's a very good point.
1386
01:21:29,800 --> 01:21:32,600
Yeah, I know, because there's
plenty of pictures and video of
1387
01:21:32,600 --> 01:21:37,300
him attending the, the bushes
and the clintons various
1388
01:21:37,300 --> 01:21:39,900
function, don't get to be as
rich as he is in New York City
1389
01:21:39,900 --> 01:21:42,800
without making some some
interesting friends.
1390
01:21:44,800 --> 01:21:48,700
And and then you look at, you
know, in an office, you know, he
1391
01:21:48,700 --> 01:21:52,700
said that take the guns first
Due process later, he expanded
1392
01:21:52,700 --> 01:21:58,000
the North American Union into
you know he's from NAFTA to the
1393
01:21:58,000 --> 01:22:00,300
expanding North American Union
be on NAFTA.
1394
01:22:00,600 --> 01:22:04,400
The his closest advisor for
foreign policy was, Richard
1395
01:22:04,400 --> 01:22:07,500
haass the head of the Council on
Foreign Relations, I think you
1396
01:22:07,500 --> 01:22:11,700
know the list could go on and on
and pick the things that, you
1397
01:22:11,700 --> 01:22:15,100
know, the media would focus on
to, you know, you don't get
1398
01:22:15,100 --> 01:22:18,700
somebody like okay, just compare
his opposition to Ron, Paul's
1399
01:22:20,400 --> 01:22:24,300
Donald Trump got free
advertising worth billions of
1400
01:22:24,300 --> 01:22:26,500
dollars.
He couldn't afford to pay for
1401
01:22:26,500 --> 01:22:28,900
the free advertising that he got
PT.
1402
01:22:28,900 --> 01:22:30,500
Barnum said, I don't care what
you say about me.
1403
01:22:30,500 --> 01:22:36,000
Just spell my name, right?
You compare that to Ron Paul and
1404
01:22:36,000 --> 01:22:40,700
even though he placed in second
in polls, you know, when he ran
1405
01:22:40,700 --> 01:22:43,300
for president, they left him off
the list.
1406
01:22:44,200 --> 01:22:48,300
When you are really outside of
the system, they ignore you.
1407
01:22:48,600 --> 01:22:51,100
It's when they give you the
free, Resizing where they, you
1408
01:22:51,100 --> 01:22:53,400
know, they would give a did,
they would do a, get a glancing
1409
01:22:53,400 --> 01:22:56,400
blow, so Ron, Paul's are racist
and then they would ignore him,
1410
01:22:56,400 --> 01:22:58,000
you know, for as much as they
could.
1411
01:22:58,500 --> 01:23:02,400
But if every day, even now when
he's out of office it every day,
1412
01:23:02,800 --> 01:23:05,700
it's the free advertising.
I believe, it's, I believe it's
1413
01:23:05,700 --> 01:23:10,500
free advertising because you get
people of our mindset that are
1414
01:23:10,500 --> 01:23:13,500
like, hey, he's saying, you
know, X Y & Z, isn't that?
1415
01:23:13,500 --> 01:23:16,400
And, and, and all the bad guys
are mad at him and attacking
1416
01:23:16,400 --> 01:23:19,300
him.
And, and so he, you know, and so
1417
01:23:19,300 --> 01:23:22,300
it puts him up They're as
somebody that's going to be the
1418
01:23:22,300 --> 01:23:24,800
new George Washington or, you
know, whatever it is, that we
1419
01:23:24,808 --> 01:23:27,000
can all get behind.
That's gonna, you know, get
1420
01:23:27,000 --> 01:23:28,800
stand between us and the New
World Order.
1421
01:23:29,100 --> 01:23:32,800
You know?
I don't believe that right now.
1422
01:23:32,800 --> 01:23:36,500
That's those are great points.
Because, yeah, I mean, I wasn't,
1423
01:23:36,900 --> 01:23:38,900
I wasn't enamored with him,
right?
1424
01:23:38,900 --> 01:23:44,700
I mean I felt like Again he
wasn't the savior of the
1425
01:23:44,700 --> 01:23:46,700
Republic, right?
He was I didn't care about his
1426
01:23:46,700 --> 01:23:49,500
crassness you know whatever.
Right different communication
1427
01:23:49,500 --> 01:23:51,500
styles.
That wasn't my problem with him
1428
01:23:51,700 --> 01:23:54,000
one bit, right?
Exactly.
1429
01:23:54,200 --> 01:23:58,600
Exactly.
So let's talk about about this
1430
01:23:58,600 --> 01:24:02,600
bookie got coming out been.
Yeah, tell me a little bit about
1431
01:24:02,600 --> 01:24:06,900
it, so a lot of, you know, I
don't know how much of your
1432
01:24:06,900 --> 01:24:10,000
viewers will know about me, but
people that have followed me for
1433
01:24:10,100 --> 01:24:11,900
for a while now, know about my
presentation.
1434
01:24:12,100 --> 01:24:14,500
I'm on Sear combinations in
Utah.
1435
01:24:15,400 --> 01:24:20,700
It's the culmination of a decade
or more of research on the
1436
01:24:20,700 --> 01:24:24,200
conspiracy in Utah, going to,
you know, that not stuff that
1437
01:24:24,200 --> 01:24:26,600
you can find.
On in Google, I'd go into BYU.
1438
01:24:26,600 --> 01:24:29,300
Special collections going to
University of Utah, special
1439
01:24:29,300 --> 01:24:32,900
collections, the churches, the
states and, and getting
1440
01:24:32,900 --> 01:24:35,500
documents, and putting all these
things together and the
1441
01:24:35,500 --> 01:24:38,500
presentation, you know, I even
did a director's commentary,
1442
01:24:38,500 --> 01:24:41,200
made it like to an hour and a
half, two hours long and it
1443
01:24:41,200 --> 01:24:45,000
still was Really scratching the
surface and so because you can
1444
01:24:45,000 --> 01:24:47,800
only do that, you don't, you
know, nobody wants to sit down
1445
01:24:47,800 --> 01:24:49,900
for, you know, four days
straight to learn everything.
1446
01:24:49,900 --> 01:24:51,700
There is to know about the
conspiracy and Utah.
1447
01:24:52,100 --> 01:24:57,300
And so I've been planning for
since I put together a
1448
01:24:57,308 --> 01:25:01,400
presentation on putting a book
together, that really goes into
1449
01:25:01,900 --> 01:25:05,100
in depth into the whole thing
that explains all the things I
1450
01:25:05,108 --> 01:25:09,600
didn't have time to go into and
so I've broken up into two
1451
01:25:09,600 --> 01:25:13,000
volumes volume one should it
will be coming out and the next
1452
01:25:13,000 --> 01:25:17,000
two to three weeks first week of
September at the very latest.
1453
01:25:17,500 --> 01:25:19,900
And so if your listeners want to
go to tree of Liberty society
1454
01:25:19,900 --> 01:25:23,200
and they can get a free copy
just by signing up for our email
1455
01:25:23,200 --> 01:25:26,800
list.
A free PDF copy and then we'll
1456
01:25:26,800 --> 01:25:29,100
have hard copies available.
People like the old-fashioned
1457
01:25:29,400 --> 01:25:34,300
reading of books but it's really
going into the details of
1458
01:25:34,300 --> 01:25:36,800
explaining.
How the conspiracy got here.
1459
01:25:36,800 --> 01:25:39,000
How we fell for everything, they
were doing.
1460
01:25:39,700 --> 01:25:43,500
It's a case study because we're
trying to do is use this as the
1461
01:25:43,508 --> 01:25:48,700
example so that, you know, it's
not just sure there is a certain
1462
01:25:48,800 --> 01:25:52,100
special Miss to it because it is
Satan's attack on the kingdom of
1463
01:25:52,100 --> 01:25:54,900
God.
But It's the same tactics, no
1464
01:25:54,900 --> 01:25:57,600
matter where you're at, the
conspiracy uses, the same
1465
01:25:57,600 --> 01:26:01,000
boiling frog approach.
Its, you know, this you can I
1466
01:26:01,900 --> 01:26:05,000
the book goes through and it
identifies principles so that
1467
01:26:05,000 --> 01:26:09,400
way you can identify
individuals, because individuals
1468
01:26:09,400 --> 01:26:12,200
died, the same conspirators that
are involved now.
1469
01:26:12,200 --> 01:26:15,600
Weren't involved women, Gary
Allen wrote the book, none dare
1470
01:26:15,600 --> 01:26:18,400
call it conspiracy.
So, if that's the last book we
1471
01:26:18,400 --> 01:26:21,000
have, and we don't understand
principles, we're not going to
1472
01:26:21,008 --> 01:26:22,900
know who's involved.
We're going to be fooled by
1473
01:26:22,900 --> 01:26:25,200
wolves in sheep's clothing.
He's a Republican and he said
1474
01:26:25,200 --> 01:26:28,100
Constitution, he must be good.
No, those guys are usually the
1475
01:26:28,100 --> 01:26:29,800
biggest dirtbags in the state of
Utah.
1476
01:26:30,000 --> 01:26:31,400
It's not their Democrat mean,
not that.
1477
01:26:31,400 --> 01:26:34,400
I'm a supportive of the
democratic platform but it's the
1478
01:26:34,400 --> 01:26:37,500
Republicans that are passing the
bills that are enslaving us in
1479
01:26:37,508 --> 01:26:40,200
the state of Utah.
And so we've got to get past the
1480
01:26:40,200 --> 01:26:43,400
personalities and start to
recognize how the conspiracy
1481
01:26:43,400 --> 01:26:46,800
infiltrates, your your state and
your community, and recognize
1482
01:26:46,800 --> 01:26:50,000
that your zero City officials
are implementing these things.
1483
01:26:50,000 --> 01:26:52,900
And so the volume 1 is getting
the history.
1484
01:26:52,900 --> 01:26:54,600
The case.
Ready for Utah.
1485
01:26:54,800 --> 01:26:58,500
And then Volume 2 which will be
out in the winter gets into more
1486
01:26:58,500 --> 01:27:01,000
specifics where we're going to
be covering, who are the
1487
01:27:01,000 --> 01:27:03,300
influential people today,
involves in groups like The
1488
01:27:03,300 --> 01:27:05,200
Council on Foreign Relations
Skull and Bones.
1489
01:27:06,600 --> 01:27:11,000
The group above Skull and Bones
called cowl, and key that things
1490
01:27:11,000 --> 01:27:12,600
that nobody's ever heard of
Federal Reserve.
1491
01:27:12,600 --> 01:27:15,600
And how that got here, and the
people that were involved with
1492
01:27:15,600 --> 01:27:18,000
that.
And so naming current names
1493
01:27:18,200 --> 01:27:21,600
talking about another group.
People always think I'm talking
1494
01:27:21,600 --> 01:27:23,800
about the same group, but
there's two groups, the out The
1495
01:27:23,800 --> 01:27:26,700
club and the Alfalfa club.
And so I'm going to get into
1496
01:27:26,700 --> 01:27:29,200
details on Mitt Romney's
involvement with the secret
1497
01:27:29,200 --> 01:27:33,000
society called the Alfalfa club
that considers themselves to be
1498
01:27:33,300 --> 01:27:38,200
the oldest secret society, that
goes back to Egypt and right
1499
01:27:38,200 --> 01:27:41,900
after you know when they Egypt
us and the Book of Abraham that
1500
01:27:41,900 --> 01:27:45,600
we learned about and so you
know, it's interesting, why is
1501
01:27:45,600 --> 01:27:48,500
Mitt Romney a part of this group
that that believes that about
1502
01:27:48,500 --> 01:27:50,900
themselves.
And he was not only a part of
1503
01:27:50,900 --> 01:27:53,000
that group, he was the president
of the group for a couple of
1504
01:27:53,000 --> 01:27:55,000
years.
And so that's what we're going
1505
01:27:55,000 --> 01:27:58,500
to be getting into in.
Volume 2 volume 1 again, is
1506
01:27:58,500 --> 01:28:04,600
laying the groundwork for us to
understand, really the they the
1507
01:28:04,600 --> 01:28:07,700
nature of what we'll be covering
in volume 2.
1508
01:28:08,000 --> 01:28:10,500
So that way we have the
principles down because too
1509
01:28:10,500 --> 01:28:14,300
often we get into personalities
and issues as opposed to
1510
01:28:14,300 --> 01:28:17,900
principles we get bogged down
and we're just like, oh well
1511
01:28:17,900 --> 01:28:22,200
it's not masks and it's not, you
know, Nancy Pelosi so it's good
1512
01:28:22,500 --> 01:28:26,200
and we have to We have to like
we start we have to like figure
1513
01:28:26,200 --> 01:28:28,800
out each thing at each time.
Something new comes up.
1514
01:28:28,900 --> 01:28:32,000
We have to figure it out but if
we understand the foundation,
1515
01:28:32,000 --> 01:28:34,100
the principles that will be
laying out that book.
1516
01:28:34,500 --> 01:28:38,600
Then we can start to say, okay,
the names change, I can't go to
1517
01:28:38,600 --> 01:28:42,100
see her combinations.com and and
just have all this, you know,
1518
01:28:42,200 --> 01:28:45,400
all the names listed.
But I'll have the aisle had the
1519
01:28:45,400 --> 01:28:49,200
principles in me.
And so that way I can identify
1520
01:28:49,900 --> 01:28:53,400
somebody because based on their
fruits instead of their words,
1521
01:28:53,700 --> 01:28:57,300
Because the conspiracy is
learned very well to use the
1522
01:28:57,300 --> 01:29:00,100
right words.
We have to start judging people
1523
01:29:00,100 --> 01:29:04,400
on their fruits.
Absolutely, I couldn't have said
1524
01:29:04,400 --> 01:29:07,100
that better myself, I think is
people.
1525
01:29:08,500 --> 01:29:12,100
We naturally tend towards
looking for the man, right,
1526
01:29:12,100 --> 01:29:16,500
whoever, whoever he or she is
we're looking for for the the
1527
01:29:16,500 --> 01:29:18,100
one person's going to fix it
all.
1528
01:29:18,400 --> 01:29:21,500
The problem is that those people
who think that they can fix it
1529
01:29:21,500 --> 01:29:23,500
all.
Well, they usually leave you.
1530
01:29:23,700 --> 01:29:26,500
Lead you into some sort of hell,
right?
1531
01:29:26,500 --> 01:29:30,700
I mean, let's not forget that
that totaling totalitarian
1532
01:29:30,700 --> 01:29:35,100
dictatorships, don't emerge out
of good times, right?
1533
01:29:35,100 --> 01:29:40,100
Every one of them emerge out of
a time of fear and hunger, and
1534
01:29:40,100 --> 01:29:44,100
deprivation.
And so if we're if we're not
1535
01:29:44,100 --> 01:29:51,000
anchored to principal, we're
open for all sorts of being led
1536
01:29:51,000 --> 01:29:54,400
astray, right?
It's back to Too trusting in the
1537
01:29:54,400 --> 01:29:57,100
arm of Flesh.
Again, rather than being being
1538
01:29:57,100 --> 01:30:00,400
anchored by principles.
I hear all the time people
1539
01:30:00,400 --> 01:30:03,400
saying, you know, I'm on our
side, I'll put that in quotes,
1540
01:30:04,000 --> 01:30:07,700
that they'll support the police
state to put down, you know, the
1541
01:30:07,700 --> 01:30:10,600
the other guy, even though, you
know, when the police States
1542
01:30:10,600 --> 01:30:12,000
used against them, they're like
really upset.
1543
01:30:12,000 --> 01:30:14,400
But, you know, when it's it's
still, we've got to be
1544
01:30:14,400 --> 01:30:16,000
principal.
We can't, if we don't want the
1545
01:30:16,000 --> 01:30:19,000
police state used on us, we
can't use the police state on
1546
01:30:19,000 --> 01:30:20,600
others.
It's just, we've got to be
1547
01:30:20,600 --> 01:30:23,500
consistent.
And it's like you said, it's
1548
01:30:23,900 --> 01:30:26,900
It's those hard times that in
the, we make excuses and we say,
1549
01:30:26,900 --> 01:30:29,900
well yes we have to like I
mentioned earlier with with
1550
01:30:29,900 --> 01:30:33,400
George Bush and I was like, oh
man, he wouldn't do anything
1551
01:30:33,400 --> 01:30:37,300
bad.
We've got to stick to that crowd
1552
01:30:37,300 --> 01:30:39,600
principle.
Because now we have people in
1553
01:30:39,600 --> 01:30:43,100
secret prisons because too many
people you had, you had, you
1554
01:30:43,100 --> 01:30:47,800
know, the conservative talk
radio host back in 2001 and 2002
1555
01:30:47,800 --> 01:30:50,500
saying, you supported the the
terrorists, if you didn't
1556
01:30:50,500 --> 01:30:55,100
support the Patriot Act.
And so, We weren't principal and
1557
01:30:55,100 --> 01:30:57,000
so we're suffering the
consequences for it.
1558
01:30:57,100 --> 01:31:01,000
And the next time we sacrifice
our principles for Safety and
1559
01:31:01,000 --> 01:31:04,000
Security, it will be a hundred
times worse than Patriot Act
1560
01:31:04,000 --> 01:31:07,100
ever dreamed of being
absolutely.
1561
01:31:07,400 --> 01:31:10,500
And, and I'll be honest, when I
was a young father, when that
1562
01:31:10,500 --> 01:31:14,600
went down, right?
I had been married since 95.
1563
01:31:14,700 --> 01:31:17,400
And so 2001 was at that six
years.
1564
01:31:18,000 --> 01:31:22,600
And I mean, I got to you, I got
a six-year-old at home and a
1565
01:31:22,600 --> 01:31:26,100
four-year-old at home.
My wife's pregnant and I was
1566
01:31:26,100 --> 01:31:28,300
nervous.
I mean, I was, I was darn
1567
01:31:28,300 --> 01:31:30,100
nervous.
You know, what does the future
1568
01:31:30,100 --> 01:31:35,600
hold?
And it really takes, It really
1569
01:31:35,600 --> 01:31:41,300
takes a discipline position to
be able to allow that fear to
1570
01:31:41,300 --> 01:31:44,800
subside a little bit and say
what's down the road, right?
1571
01:31:44,800 --> 01:31:48,400
Because like you said I'll admit
I was at guy was like George
1572
01:31:48,400 --> 01:31:51,500
Bush ain't gonna go dictator.
Okay.
1573
01:31:51,500 --> 01:31:54,500
So let's say he doesn't.
Who's the next guy that has that
1574
01:31:54,500 --> 01:31:57,200
problem?
Who's who's going to get it
1575
01:31:57,200 --> 01:31:59,900
eventually?
Yeah, and so yeah.
1576
01:31:59,900 --> 01:32:04,500
No, I agree with you 100%.
We need to get past this idea of
1577
01:32:04,500 --> 01:32:08,300
a Two person, excuse me, a cult
of personality and start looking
1578
01:32:08,300 --> 01:32:13,700
at principle because they, those
Cults of Personality will always
1579
01:32:13,700 --> 01:32:15,800
lead you astray.
All right.
1580
01:32:16,400 --> 01:32:19,200
Even if he's not the one that
does it, the guy you're
1581
01:32:19,200 --> 01:32:21,900
following?
Maybe it's not even the next
1582
01:32:21,900 --> 01:32:23,500
guy, eating away from the
principles.
1583
01:32:23,500 --> 01:32:25,200
That's the problem, right?
Right.
1584
01:32:25,200 --> 01:32:26,600
Exactly.
And that's the whole thing that
1585
01:32:26,600 --> 01:32:28,700
I've been talking about.
That's how the conspiracy gets
1586
01:32:28,700 --> 01:32:32,700
to their ultimate agenda through
is, by these small soccer, you
1587
01:32:32,700 --> 01:32:36,300
know, these small changes small,
Means and measures as Karl Marx
1588
01:32:36,300 --> 01:32:40,300
says that are economically.
Insufficient meaning, they're so
1589
01:32:40,300 --> 01:32:42,600
small.
They can't make any difference
1590
01:32:42,600 --> 01:32:46,500
right now but because you
succumb to that small change
1591
01:32:46,500 --> 01:32:48,200
that one change leads to the
next.
1592
01:32:48,200 --> 01:32:52,000
It actually says the each change
necessitates the next change.
1593
01:32:52,900 --> 01:32:56,300
And so when you give up to one
change that makes no difference.
1594
01:32:56,700 --> 01:32:59,700
Supposedly that is just a
violation of principle but
1595
01:33:00,100 --> 01:33:04,000
doesn't have a big impact.
You are setting up yourself for
1596
01:33:04,000 --> 01:33:06,000
the next chain.
In the next change, in the next
1597
01:33:06,000 --> 01:33:09,200
change.
And until your you are Gulliver
1598
01:33:09,600 --> 01:33:12,900
and you are in your tied down by
the little, you know, miniature
1599
01:33:12,900 --> 01:33:14,400
people?
Yeah.
1600
01:33:14,600 --> 01:33:17,500
Absolutely.
And, and I think part of that
1601
01:33:17,500 --> 01:33:24,700
too, is this idea that we're
constantly looking for things,
1602
01:33:24,700 --> 01:33:27,300
that feel normal and
comfortable, right?
1603
01:33:28,300 --> 01:33:31,800
I know, I talk to people,
sometimes about this, those who
1604
01:33:31,800 --> 01:33:34,100
I think would be, I'm selective
on.
1605
01:33:34,100 --> 01:33:36,500
Who I Ali talk to you about
this, right?
1606
01:33:36,700 --> 01:33:39,800
Because sometimes it just
doesn't make any difference and
1607
01:33:39,800 --> 01:33:41,300
you can tell they're going to
blow it off.
1608
01:33:41,600 --> 01:33:44,300
But some of the ones I have
talked to you, they're like, oh,
1609
01:33:44,300 --> 01:33:46,800
it's just the same as it has
always been, right?
1610
01:33:46,800 --> 01:33:50,300
It's not that much different
than what it was in name your
1611
01:33:50,400 --> 01:33:51,300
time.
I don't know.
1612
01:33:51,300 --> 01:33:55,300
Right?
And I remember I read a book
1613
01:33:55,300 --> 01:33:58,700
once on something called the
normalcy bias and they actually
1614
01:33:58,700 --> 01:34:01,900
use huge, they actually talked
about it.
1615
01:34:02,400 --> 01:34:06,300
The story of the example they
gave was We from 9/11 where
1616
01:34:08,000 --> 01:34:12,000
people were turning around to go
shut off their computers, right?
1617
01:34:12,000 --> 01:34:14,800
They were halfway down the
stairwells and they were like,
1618
01:34:15,000 --> 01:34:16,800
how I forgot to turn off my
computer.
1619
01:34:17,200 --> 01:34:20,000
And, and this psychologist was
interested in it, you know what
1620
01:34:20,000 --> 01:34:23,200
causes this?
And it was the normalcy bias.
1621
01:34:23,200 --> 01:34:29,300
It was this innate driving us to
return to some sort of normalcy
1622
01:34:29,700 --> 01:34:34,600
and those small axe.
So I think sometimes we will
1623
01:34:34,800 --> 01:34:40,100
Wow, that that I don't know that
biological mechanism to take
1624
01:34:40,100 --> 01:34:43,600
over which doesn't allow us to
necessarily see the forest from
1625
01:34:43,600 --> 01:34:45,800
the trees, right?
Yeah.
1626
01:34:46,400 --> 01:34:53,800
So let me ask you this.
Let's let's just say, let's use
1627
01:34:53,800 --> 01:35:00,000
a hypothetical, you know the guy
in his mid-30s right wife, kids
1628
01:35:00,400 --> 01:35:03,800
got a mortgage has a decent job.
Making money.
1629
01:35:04,900 --> 01:35:08,900
But he's woken up to these
facts, right?
1630
01:35:08,900 --> 01:35:11,700
He's he's seeing something is
wrong.
1631
01:35:12,300 --> 01:35:15,400
Yeah, where does he go, what
does he do?
1632
01:35:17,300 --> 01:35:19,500
To start getting educated.
Where would you tell him to
1633
01:35:19,500 --> 01:35:21,700
start looking first?
Yeah.
1634
01:35:21,700 --> 01:35:24,700
Building understanding is huge
because there's a saying that I
1635
01:35:24,700 --> 01:35:28,400
like a lot, it's Education
Without action these defend his
1636
01:35:28,500 --> 01:35:30,100
frustration.
That's where I was.
1637
01:35:30,100 --> 01:35:32,000
When I first started waking up,
I was like yeah.
1638
01:35:32,000 --> 01:35:34,400
Okay you know these things are
true but what am I going to do
1639
01:35:34,400 --> 01:35:36,900
about it?
But also what we see a lot as
1640
01:35:36,900 --> 01:35:40,900
well is action without education
leads to fanaticism.
1641
01:35:41,200 --> 01:35:43,400
You making the wrong choice, you
go in, there you go.
1642
01:35:43,400 --> 01:35:45,900
Not too deep in you doing the
wrong thing because you don't
1643
01:35:45,900 --> 01:35:48,500
understand.
Why things are the way they are.
1644
01:35:48,900 --> 01:35:52,100
And so we built two different
things at our website.
1645
01:35:52,300 --> 01:35:54,700
For this very purpose, you go to
tree of Liberty Society.
1646
01:35:55,000 --> 01:35:58,800
You hover over the learn Tab,
and we have a section called a
1647
01:35:58,800 --> 01:36:00,800
boot camp, where we have a
six-course class.
1648
01:36:01,200 --> 01:36:06,000
We go into the not, we go to the
Constitution, but it's, it's are
1649
01:36:06,200 --> 01:36:10,200
extremists Liberty boot camp
where we go into the principles
1650
01:36:10,200 --> 01:36:11,900
of the why I mentioned this
earlier.
1651
01:36:12,100 --> 01:36:14,800
So important for the history.
Why did they put those things in
1652
01:36:14,800 --> 01:36:17,800
the Constitution then we get
into the kingdom of God what
1653
01:36:17,800 --> 01:36:20,800
will the principles behind that
the conspiracy internationally
1654
01:36:21,000 --> 01:36:24,600
as well as the conspiracy from
the local level and then we get
1655
01:36:24,600 --> 01:36:26,600
into Solutions, what do we do
about it?
1656
01:36:27,000 --> 01:36:29,300
Because you have to have that
Foundation before you understand
1657
01:36:29,300 --> 01:36:32,000
Solutions.
And then we also have a section
1658
01:36:32,000 --> 01:36:35,400
in the learn in on the learn tab
where we have resources, where
1659
01:36:35,600 --> 01:36:39,100
we have not, we have 12
different, I'm sorry.
1660
01:36:39,100 --> 01:36:42,400
Nine different areas from Sierra
combinations.
1661
01:36:42,400 --> 01:36:45,200
Proper role of government
natural law where you click on
1662
01:36:45,200 --> 01:36:47,000
that and there are videos or
articles.
1663
01:36:47,200 --> 01:36:50,600
There are audio downloads for
you to be able to just become
1664
01:36:50,600 --> 01:36:53,600
immersed, on that subject.
So that way you can really just,
1665
01:36:53,600 --> 01:36:57,200
you know, build that
understanding at your own pace
1666
01:36:57,200 --> 01:36:59,900
through reading, through
listening for viewing and I
1667
01:36:59,907 --> 01:37:04,000
think that's really the starting
point and then members of tree
1668
01:37:04,000 --> 01:37:08,300
of Liberty Society, every week
we have online training where we
1669
01:37:08,300 --> 01:37:11,700
go through and we go even more
detail of what's, what are some
1670
01:37:11,700 --> 01:37:14,300
of the, you know, the things
coming down the line.
1671
01:37:14,600 --> 01:37:16,900
What is the government?
You know, what are these new?
1672
01:37:17,000 --> 01:37:20,800
Events that we've uncovered
saying about what we can expect
1673
01:37:20,800 --> 01:37:23,700
and then what we can do about it
because that's key.
1674
01:37:23,700 --> 01:37:26,800
Is once we have that
understanding, then the next
1675
01:37:26,800 --> 01:37:29,600
thing is we really have to
recognize that the people that
1676
01:37:29,600 --> 01:37:32,500
are in power right now are
illegitimate they're criminals
1677
01:37:32,800 --> 01:37:35,500
and they're violating their oath
of office and so they are
1678
01:37:35,500 --> 01:37:36,900
illegitimate.
The things that are doing are
1679
01:37:36,900 --> 01:37:40,100
illegal and so we need to start
treating them that way because
1680
01:37:40,400 --> 01:37:43,400
the traditional Solutions are
what have brought us to the
1681
01:37:43,400 --> 01:37:45,100
situation that we're in, where
we think.
1682
01:37:45,100 --> 01:37:46,900
We're just going to go harder
more, you know?
1683
01:37:47,100 --> 01:37:49,500
About earlier and more often you
know what?
1684
01:37:49,700 --> 01:37:53,000
And so you know those things
that that we traditionally think
1685
01:37:53,000 --> 01:37:56,700
of as the solutions to the
problem are are actually a more
1686
01:37:56,700 --> 01:38:01,200
modern idea that has been
brought forward to get us to
1687
01:38:01,300 --> 01:38:04,400
maintain the status quo.
We have to look at what and
1688
01:38:04,400 --> 01:38:06,800
recognize, what is it?
Has it been that has actually
1689
01:38:06,800 --> 01:38:10,600
led to restoring lost Liberty
and that is people like the
1690
01:38:10,600 --> 01:38:12,800
founding fathers saying, you
know what you are not
1691
01:38:12,800 --> 01:38:16,000
legitimate.
I am not going to obey you if we
1692
01:38:16,000 --> 01:38:18,200
really think about it, right?
These guys I mentioned earlier
1693
01:38:18,200 --> 01:38:21,600
the Bohemian Grove these these
people that seek to rule over us
1694
01:38:21,900 --> 01:38:25,600
they go and they worship an owl.
God, I'm going to let them tell
1695
01:38:25,600 --> 01:38:27,500
me how to raise my children.
What they're going to be taught
1696
01:38:27,500 --> 01:38:29,000
in school.
That's outrageous, that's
1697
01:38:29,000 --> 01:38:31,400
insane.
It's it's ludicrous to think
1698
01:38:31,400 --> 01:38:33,200
that anybody would actually do
that.
1699
01:38:33,500 --> 01:38:36,000
And so when we understand what's
going on, then we start to have
1700
01:38:36,000 --> 01:38:39,100
that mindset of I am I am a
crazy person.
1701
01:38:39,100 --> 01:38:41,000
If I am going to let him tell me
what to do.
1702
01:38:41,800 --> 01:38:45,800
And so we then start.
Okay, I'm going to obey the law
1703
01:38:46,100 --> 01:38:48,500
by following the Constitution
and enforcing it.
1704
01:38:48,800 --> 01:38:51,400
And we start to understand these
things and ignoring and doing
1705
01:38:51,400 --> 01:38:53,300
the founding fathers said is to
nullify.
1706
01:38:53,700 --> 01:38:59,900
And then in, in the ability to
do, you know, Small Things is
1707
01:38:59,900 --> 01:39:01,800
easy on our own, right?
There's little small things that
1708
01:39:01,800 --> 01:39:05,500
we can do to nullify without too
much pushback, but when it
1709
01:39:05,500 --> 01:39:07,800
starts to get more series, we
need to be able to join
1710
01:39:07,800 --> 01:39:08,900
together.
And so that's one of the things
1711
01:39:08,900 --> 01:39:11,000
that we offer.
As tree of Liberty, is for
1712
01:39:11,000 --> 01:39:14,400
people to be able to come
together to help each other out
1713
01:39:14,700 --> 01:39:18,200
to be more effective in our Leti
to stand up for the
1714
01:39:18,200 --> 01:39:21,500
Constitution, the principles
that are enshrined in the
1715
01:39:21,500 --> 01:39:24,100
Constitution.
That's awesome.
1716
01:39:24,700 --> 01:39:28,600
So if someone wanted to join the
tree of Liberty Society, is
1717
01:39:28,600 --> 01:39:30,900
there a cost is there an annual
membership?
1718
01:39:30,900 --> 01:39:33,100
What, what do they have to do in
order to join?
1719
01:39:33,600 --> 01:39:37,300
So, you know, besides the train
and are we have it our
1720
01:39:37,300 --> 01:39:42,500
membership portal, we have a lot
of tools of the research
1721
01:39:42,500 --> 01:39:45,800
documents that we've been able
to maintain and put together and
1722
01:39:45,800 --> 01:39:48,500
our previous trainings.
You can do you access that by
1723
01:39:48,500 --> 01:39:50,900
being a member and you just go
to the joints happen.
1724
01:39:51,100 --> 01:39:54,300
And there there's a nominal cost
involved that helps support our
1725
01:39:54,300 --> 01:39:56,800
work, and make sure that we can
continue doing it and, and to
1726
01:39:56,800 --> 01:39:59,700
grow.
And but most of our stuff, I'd
1727
01:39:59,700 --> 01:40:03,700
say, 95% of everything we
produce is free on the website
1728
01:40:03,700 --> 01:40:05,800
and on our YouTube channel in
our podcast.
1729
01:40:06,200 --> 01:40:09,300
And so if you like what we want
to do, you know, if you like it
1730
01:40:10,300 --> 01:40:12,400
just make sure that you're
sharing what we're doing.
1731
01:40:12,700 --> 01:40:15,100
But if you want to support us
and make sure that we grow and
1732
01:40:15,100 --> 01:40:18,800
become more effective and then
we become You know that we're
1733
01:40:19,000 --> 01:40:23,500
able to get more places and to
be able to become more effective
1734
01:40:23,700 --> 01:40:26,000
than we invite you to become a
member support.
1735
01:40:26,000 --> 01:40:28,000
It and be received the benefits
of membership.
1736
01:40:28,600 --> 01:40:33,400
Fantastic.
So, I got kind of a personal
1737
01:40:33,400 --> 01:40:35,900
question for you.
And again, I know you don't have
1738
01:40:35,900 --> 01:40:39,400
to answer this.
What have you had to sacrifice
1739
01:40:39,400 --> 01:40:42,000
in this work?
What have been some of the
1740
01:40:42,000 --> 01:40:44,600
personal cost to you?
Yeah.
1741
01:40:46,500 --> 01:40:50,100
So, some of that, I probably
shouldn't get into on this
1742
01:40:50,100 --> 01:40:55,500
podcast, but definitely attacks
by people in government.
1743
01:40:57,000 --> 01:41:00,800
I used to live out in the
country where my nearest
1744
01:41:00,800 --> 01:41:04,200
neighbor was two miles away.
And when we live there, there
1745
01:41:04,200 --> 01:41:07,000
was a state legislator that was
very upset with the expose, is
1746
01:41:07,000 --> 01:41:10,300
that we're doing about him and
so him and his son, who's a
1747
01:41:10,300 --> 01:41:15,700
sheriff in Beaver County Work to
find out, try to find a Hayward
1748
01:41:15,700 --> 01:41:18,600
has been live, where who does
been work for finding out.
1749
01:41:18,600 --> 01:41:22,500
Try using DMV records to find
out that information illegally
1750
01:41:22,500 --> 01:41:26,700
without a warrant and use it,
because he was, his son was a
1751
01:41:26,700 --> 01:41:28,800
sheriff.
He was able to get my County
1752
01:41:28,800 --> 01:41:34,100
Sheriff, to put a little, a DUI
checkpoint blocking my driveway
1753
01:41:34,100 --> 01:41:36,900
for an entire weekend.
So I had to go through a DUI,
1754
01:41:36,900 --> 01:41:40,600
checkpoint to leave my house and
to come home.
1755
01:41:41,500 --> 01:41:45,600
And harassment like that.
And there's been more serious
1756
01:41:45,600 --> 01:41:47,700
things in that.
That probably shouldn't be on
1757
01:41:48,200 --> 01:41:50,800
his podcast, but it gives you an
example of some of the things
1758
01:41:50,800 --> 01:41:56,800
that we've had to, you know, put
my myself and my family under
1759
01:41:57,100 --> 01:42:02,500
scrutiny and harassment, and
even persecution from, from
1760
01:42:02,500 --> 01:42:05,500
those that wish to enslave us.
Yeah.
1761
01:42:08,100 --> 01:42:10,100
Kind of blessings.
Have you seen come from doing
1762
01:42:10,100 --> 01:42:15,900
this?
Beyond my wildest imaginations.
1763
01:42:16,700 --> 01:42:20,300
One of the things that I've had
to deal with is that the that
1764
01:42:20,300 --> 01:42:28,600
ties into that is that is I've
got a, what's a Blacklist on a
1765
01:42:29,000 --> 01:42:32,600
like a what's it called?
The F of federal criminal
1766
01:42:32,600 --> 01:42:36,100
background.
So if a company says, you know,
1767
01:42:36,500 --> 01:42:39,700
you want to work for me.
You know, we just have to do
1768
01:42:39,700 --> 01:42:42,000
this criminal background.
Check you, you know.
1769
01:42:42,200 --> 01:42:45,100
And if you do a federal one, it
goes through this, and it comes
1770
01:42:45,100 --> 01:42:47,600
back and says, I have a federal
criminal background even though
1771
01:42:47,600 --> 01:42:52,700
I've never been arrested And so
when I filed a foia to find out
1772
01:42:52,700 --> 01:42:55,700
why why what, what is my
criminal background, why am I
1773
01:42:55,708 --> 01:42:59,300
being told that I have this
criminal history when I don't?
1774
01:42:59,400 --> 01:43:01,900
And so I'm not getting jobs, I
couldn't get, you know, long
1775
01:43:01,900 --> 01:43:05,100
long time, you know, not able to
get work because of this.
1776
01:43:05,800 --> 01:43:10,600
And so I got back a letter from
the FBI saying we can neither
1777
01:43:10,600 --> 01:43:14,400
confirm nor deny because of
national security reasons for
1778
01:43:14,400 --> 01:43:18,000
why your on why we're saying you
have a criminal background.
1779
01:43:19,600 --> 01:43:23,600
And so that's been the thing
that I've had to face, but
1780
01:43:23,600 --> 01:43:26,700
through through this whole
thing, the Lord is always
1781
01:43:27,000 --> 01:43:29,900
provided for me and my family,
we've always had food.
1782
01:43:30,000 --> 01:43:33,700
We've always had a place to
stay, always had the ability to
1783
01:43:33,700 --> 01:43:38,800
care for myself and my family
and the Lord has filled every
1784
01:43:38,800 --> 01:43:40,700
Gap.
When didn't think was possible,
1785
01:43:41,000 --> 01:43:43,900
when it was literally
impossible, the Lord filled the
1786
01:43:43,900 --> 01:43:50,300
Gap, you know, and I ask those
two questions. because, I'm a
1787
01:43:50,300 --> 01:43:54,600
big believer in.
Knowing what you're getting
1788
01:43:54,600 --> 01:43:58,200
into.
Absolutely, and I don't want
1789
01:43:58,200 --> 01:44:02,300
anyone coming into this being a
Sunshine Patriot as Thomas.
1790
01:44:02,300 --> 01:44:07,500
Paine, would say, right?
And so, you have to understand
1791
01:44:07,500 --> 01:44:12,500
that.
Well, my grandfather was a pilot
1792
01:44:12,500 --> 01:44:18,400
and World in World War Two, and
he had this great saying if
1793
01:44:18,400 --> 01:44:24,200
you're not taking flak, you're
not over the target. yep, and
1794
01:44:25,200 --> 01:44:31,900
you need to know that this is
going to come however I know God
1795
01:44:31,900 --> 01:44:38,500
is the same yesterday today and
forever, he doesn't change the
1796
01:44:38,500 --> 01:44:44,900
same God, the god of Abraham,
Isaac, and Jacob is very
1797
01:44:44,900 --> 01:44:48,400
concerned with Mankind's
freedom.
1798
01:44:50,200 --> 01:44:53,900
And if it was good enough for
our fathers, are our founding
1799
01:44:53,900 --> 01:44:58,300
fathers, when they said, we will
rely on the protection of Divine
1800
01:44:58,300 --> 01:45:02,400
Providence.
We can expect the same blessings
1801
01:45:02,500 --> 01:45:07,300
to come our way.
We can expect that same promise
1802
01:45:07,700 --> 01:45:11,800
to still go forward because
America is a covenanted land,
1803
01:45:11,800 --> 01:45:14,400
right?
Let's not let's not gloss at
1804
01:45:14,400 --> 01:45:18,400
over.
And so if we want that
1805
01:45:18,400 --> 01:45:22,500
protection, we have to be
willing to, you know, just as
1806
01:45:22,500 --> 01:45:24,900
the founders did what?
And it sounds like what you've
1807
01:45:24,900 --> 01:45:31,400
had to do which is placed on the
altar, you know you're Or your
1808
01:45:33,400 --> 01:45:36,100
your life fortune and sacred
honor.
1809
01:45:36,300 --> 01:45:42,300
Right that those those things
Place those on the Altar and and
1810
01:45:42,300 --> 01:45:44,100
go forward with a sense of
boldness.
1811
01:45:45,800 --> 01:45:47,400
Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
It.
1812
01:45:47,900 --> 01:45:52,100
And I kind of alluded that
earlier, you know, we have to
1813
01:45:52,100 --> 01:45:56,500
realize that this isn't You
know, I just show up and hold a
1814
01:45:56,500 --> 01:45:59,100
sign and and now all of a sudden
everything is, you know,
1815
01:45:59,100 --> 01:46:01,600
hunky-dory.
This is real, it's serious.
1816
01:46:01,600 --> 01:46:04,600
The thing.
Is real, and it's very serious.
1817
01:46:04,700 --> 01:46:09,200
And we have to recognize that
coming in.
1818
01:46:09,200 --> 01:46:13,400
But also again, like I said,
recognize that the Lord fills
1819
01:46:13,400 --> 01:46:16,700
the Gap, the Lord brings us the
blessings and provides
1820
01:46:16,700 --> 01:46:20,800
everything that we need.
If we show our faith first, it's
1821
01:46:20,800 --> 01:46:25,900
the faith first.
And then the Lord comes in and
1822
01:46:25,900 --> 01:46:27,400
does what we can't do it for
ourselves.
1823
01:46:28,100 --> 01:46:33,000
Absolutely, you know, one of the
things that got me really
1824
01:46:33,000 --> 01:46:38,300
involved in what I'm doing.
Now, is this idea of what What
1825
01:46:38,300 --> 01:46:40,400
were my kids?
Our grandkids going to ask me
1826
01:46:40,400 --> 01:46:44,000
about the times that we lived
in, but what did you do?
1827
01:46:45,100 --> 01:46:48,500
And my worst fear is to say,
well, I wore a mask and I hid
1828
01:46:48,500 --> 01:46:52,400
behind a door, right?
Or I kind of pardon the
1829
01:46:52,400 --> 01:46:56,800
expression I pushed out, right?
I didn't stand when, when it was
1830
01:46:56,800 --> 01:47:03,100
time to stand and I feel like
and it's and again, I'm not just
1831
01:47:03,100 --> 01:47:06,600
paying lip service here.
I feel like you've done a really
1832
01:47:06,600 --> 01:47:10,500
good job in illustrating.
This is that sometimes you've
1833
01:47:10,500 --> 01:47:18,500
got to put it all on the altar,
but I just can't see a topic
1834
01:47:18,500 --> 01:47:22,000
that is or a cause that's more
worthy than this.
1835
01:47:22,000 --> 01:47:26,100
Because, look, I do believe
Reagan said it best, right?
1836
01:47:28,000 --> 01:47:31,200
The world's hopes lie with
America and America's hopes lie
1837
01:47:31,200 --> 01:47:34,100
with Right?
And so, we have to be willing to
1838
01:47:34,100 --> 01:47:39,200
be a little loud, a little
Rowdy, sometimes, not not, not
1839
01:47:39,200 --> 01:47:44,900
set crap on fire kind of cloudy,
but you know, let your voice be
1840
01:47:44,900 --> 01:47:47,700
heard a little bit.
How do you address?
1841
01:47:48,900 --> 01:47:50,500
Because here's the other thing,
right?
1842
01:47:50,600 --> 01:47:53,700
Because I'm definitely this guy
when we were talking earlier on
1843
01:47:53,700 --> 01:47:56,200
the podcast you said you're
naturally kind of shy and
1844
01:47:56,200 --> 01:47:59,300
reserved I'm kind of the same
way, right?
1845
01:47:59,300 --> 01:48:02,700
I tend to be like just shut the
You're so I don't have to see
1846
01:48:02,700 --> 01:48:06,500
anybody else right to party and
I'm the guy in the corner and
1847
01:48:06,500 --> 01:48:08,500
I'm like, I'm good over here,
right?
1848
01:48:08,900 --> 01:48:11,000
I saw this shirt.
It said, I'm sorry.
1849
01:48:11,000 --> 01:48:12,400
I'm late.
I didn't want to be here.
1850
01:48:12,500 --> 01:48:16,500
Exactly.
Exactly.
1851
01:48:16,500 --> 01:48:20,900
And yet I find myself behind
this microphone, these guys that
1852
01:48:20,900 --> 01:48:22,800
don't want to do that are the
ones behind the mic.
1853
01:48:23,000 --> 01:48:24,400
Exactly.
Exactly.
1854
01:48:24,400 --> 01:48:30,200
And so how do you, how would you
tell somebody to get over that
1855
01:48:30,200 --> 01:48:32,900
fear?
Right of Of raising your voice,
1856
01:48:34,100 --> 01:48:42,000
what has helped you get past it.
It's that idea of nobody else is
1857
01:48:42,200 --> 01:48:45,000
is going to do it.
I'm responsible for my
1858
01:48:45,000 --> 01:48:46,400
salvation.
I'm responsible.
1859
01:48:46,600 --> 01:48:49,000
The Lord is going to hold me
accountable for what I did and
1860
01:48:49,000 --> 01:48:53,900
didn't do the in C-130 for Lord
holds us accountable for actions
1861
01:48:53,900 --> 01:48:57,000
in relation to government both
in what laws are made in how
1862
01:48:57,000 --> 01:49:00,400
they are administered.
I am held accountable.
1863
01:49:02,700 --> 01:49:07,500
If there's I have to do, I have
to, you know, I have to put my
1864
01:49:07,500 --> 01:49:10,800
big pants on my big boy pants on
and just do what the Lord wants
1865
01:49:10,800 --> 01:49:17,800
me to do. do I want the
blessings or don't I Yeah.
1866
01:49:20,400 --> 01:49:23,600
I remember when I fired up this
microphone for the first time
1867
01:49:23,600 --> 01:49:26,700
and had no idea what I was doing
and I had on my first guest.
1868
01:49:28,500 --> 01:49:31,800
And it was about two minutes
before I hit the record button
1869
01:49:32,200 --> 01:49:35,800
where I sat there and I thought
do I really want to do this
1870
01:49:36,000 --> 01:49:38,000
right?
Do I really want to put myself
1871
01:49:38,000 --> 01:49:41,400
out here like this?
We answer was no, I don't want
1872
01:49:41,400 --> 01:49:43,800
it horse, right?
Yeah.
1873
01:49:43,900 --> 01:49:49,400
However If I'm going to do this
let's do this with a certain
1874
01:49:49,400 --> 01:49:53,400
sense of Reckless.
Abandon absolutely right.
1875
01:49:53,500 --> 01:49:56,400
Just and again pardon the
expression.
1876
01:49:57,300 --> 01:49:59,900
Go balls out.
Don't don't hold anything back.
1877
01:49:59,900 --> 01:50:01,500
Go balls to the walls, right?
Right.
1878
01:50:01,500 --> 01:50:04,300
Don't don't hold back.
Just let it go.
1879
01:50:04,800 --> 01:50:08,500
Yeah and out of that Springs.
Those blessings we were talking
1880
01:50:08,500 --> 01:50:10,600
about before you put yourself
out there.
1881
01:50:10,600 --> 01:50:12,400
You might as well do it right?
Yeah.
1882
01:50:12,400 --> 01:50:16,700
Don't don't hold back and I'm
not going to lie to people, it
1883
01:50:16,700 --> 01:50:20,200
is kind of spooky, right?
It's not something that that as
1884
01:50:20,200 --> 01:50:22,900
humans, I think were innately
born with that.
1885
01:50:22,900 --> 01:50:28,700
I think some people are but I
think I think the guys who who
1886
01:50:28,700 --> 01:50:31,000
are really going to make a
difference or usually kind of
1887
01:50:31,000 --> 01:50:33,700
reluctant right because they
feel like they got better crap
1888
01:50:33,700 --> 01:50:36,800
to do, right?
Well most of my case, I think
1889
01:50:36,800 --> 01:50:39,400
there's other people that could
do a better job, dude.
1890
01:50:39,400 --> 01:50:41,900
I know there's somebody at can
do a way better job.
1891
01:50:42,000 --> 01:50:45,000
I say it all the time.
I'm a clown with a microphone.
1892
01:50:45,200 --> 01:50:50,300
Got no business doing this, but
at the end of the day, it was
1893
01:50:50,300 --> 01:50:52,700
what I felt.
God has laid on my heart.
1894
01:50:52,800 --> 01:50:56,500
Yeah.
And while never pretend to say
1895
01:50:56,500 --> 01:51:02,300
that I know the mind and will of
the Almighty I know him well
1896
01:51:02,300 --> 01:51:05,600
enough that when something's
laid on your heart, it's time to
1897
01:51:05,600 --> 01:51:08,500
do it.
And I would just say this if
1898
01:51:08,500 --> 01:51:14,500
you're listening to this podcast
at this time, it's for a reason.
1899
01:51:15,300 --> 01:51:18,600
It's for a reason you don't find
yourself here and I'm not
1900
01:51:18,600 --> 01:51:20,700
talking about my podcast in
particular.
1901
01:51:20,700 --> 01:51:23,200
I'm talking about this period in
time.
1902
01:51:23,200 --> 01:51:26,700
You don't find yourself here by
accident, you have everything
1903
01:51:26,700 --> 01:51:30,900
you need to get it done, right?
I find myself being oddly.
1904
01:51:31,100 --> 01:51:34,000
Fall in weird ways because I'm
naturally pessimistic in the
1905
01:51:34,000 --> 01:51:38,700
little bit skeptical usually
across the board, right?
1906
01:51:38,700 --> 01:51:41,900
But there is a bit of Hope in
the sense that we're seeing The
1907
01:51:41,900 --> 01:51:45,900
Gatekeepers fall.
And so these messages can go
1908
01:51:45,900 --> 01:51:51,900
forward a little easier than
what they ever could before, you
1909
01:51:51,900 --> 01:51:54,300
know 20 years ago.
What we're doing right now.
1910
01:51:54,500 --> 01:51:56,000
Couldn't happen.
No.
1911
01:51:57,500 --> 01:52:00,700
No, no, it's the tech, wasn't
there?
1912
01:52:01,100 --> 01:52:04,000
The the idea wasn't there, but
somehow we're here.
1913
01:52:04,000 --> 01:52:06,500
Now, they build it yet to get
the message out.
1914
01:52:06,500 --> 01:52:10,000
Just in possum, is ridiculous or
in the morning, like a special
1915
01:52:10,000 --> 01:52:13,000
time where the Lord is opened up
a way for the message to get
1916
01:52:13,000 --> 01:52:14,300
out.
Can you imagine if you had the
1917
01:52:14,300 --> 01:52:18,700
like print out pamphlets?
Oh, and share the information
1918
01:52:18,700 --> 01:52:20,700
your podcast out?
That was the way to do it.
1919
01:52:21,400 --> 01:52:23,000
It's crazy.
Yeah.
1920
01:52:23,000 --> 01:52:25,600
Yeah, dude, there's no way I do
it back then, right.
1921
01:52:25,600 --> 01:52:29,200
I mean, look, I'll admit You
mentioned Pioneer day.
1922
01:52:29,600 --> 01:52:31,600
I've been like, what's wrong
with Missouri?
1923
01:52:31,700 --> 01:52:34,100
I mean really, you know what's
wrong with Illinois?
1924
01:52:34,200 --> 01:52:38,400
I know they're trying to kill us
but all of our craps here
1925
01:52:38,400 --> 01:52:40,200
anyway.
Let's think this over a little
1926
01:52:40,200 --> 01:52:44,700
bit right.
Likewise, he printing pamphlets
1927
01:52:44,700 --> 01:52:47,100
used to be a pain of.
Oh yeah.
1928
01:52:47,500 --> 01:52:49,100
You know, Extraordinary
Measures.
1929
01:52:49,100 --> 01:52:53,400
We don't have that issue.
Now, I think now we have a heart
1930
01:52:53,400 --> 01:52:56,800
issue, right?
Getting finding your strengths
1931
01:52:56,800 --> 01:53:00,600
and No, but well she with the
message right here, in Utah,
1932
01:53:00,700 --> 01:53:03,100
right?
Both of us, you know, me me
1933
01:53:03,100 --> 01:53:06,500
going and saying that.
I don't agree with the person
1934
01:53:06,500 --> 01:53:09,000
that most people in the state of
Utah believed to be a prophet
1935
01:53:09,300 --> 01:53:11,700
and then you know then the
topics that you cover.
1936
01:53:12,100 --> 01:53:14,300
That's that's not something
that's socially acceptable.
1937
01:53:14,800 --> 01:53:20,500
No no no and you know it's funny
my wife and I had to have this
1938
01:53:20,500 --> 01:53:24,400
conversation.
What am I willing to suffer?
1939
01:53:25,200 --> 01:53:28,400
In order to do this, right,
right?
1940
01:53:28,800 --> 01:53:31,900
Um, am I willing to suffer
losing my job?
1941
01:53:32,000 --> 01:53:34,600
Am I willing to suffer maybe
having to move?
1942
01:53:34,600 --> 01:53:38,600
Am I willing to suffer?
You name it right?
1943
01:53:38,600 --> 01:53:40,400
And and the answer always came
back.
1944
01:53:40,400 --> 01:53:43,300
Yeah.
Because it's what God laid on my
1945
01:53:43,300 --> 01:53:47,200
heart and and my wife received a
testimony of it.
1946
01:53:47,200 --> 01:53:50,700
So here we go.
Right, here we go.
1947
01:53:51,700 --> 01:53:54,700
So yeah, no, it's definitely
interesting time.
1948
01:53:54,800 --> 01:53:58,000
Times, we live in Ben.
We've been at this now, almost
1949
01:53:58,000 --> 01:53:59,700
two hours.
Oh, my goodness.
1950
01:54:00,100 --> 01:54:02,900
So what do you want to say in
conclusion?
1951
01:54:06,600 --> 01:54:10,000
But I hope people will will
recognize, you know, we're there
1952
01:54:10,000 --> 01:54:12,900
listening to your podcast, I'm
assuming that they have some
1953
01:54:12,900 --> 01:54:15,800
kind of belief in the
restoration and that they
1954
01:54:15,800 --> 01:54:19,700
believe that the that the cause
of Christ is the cause of
1955
01:54:19,700 --> 01:54:21,800
Liberty and the cause of Liberty
is the cause of Christ.
1956
01:54:22,600 --> 01:54:25,400
And then if we are going to
stand with Christ, that we are
1957
01:54:25,400 --> 01:54:30,400
going to do what we did to get a
body in the first place, and
1958
01:54:30,400 --> 01:54:34,900
that is to be actively engaged
in the cause of Defending agency
1959
01:54:34,900 --> 01:54:36,200
against those that seek to
destroy.
1960
01:54:37,700 --> 01:54:42,800
And I, you know, I hope that
they will choose to be involved
1961
01:54:42,800 --> 01:54:45,000
through what I'm doing, but it's
not that they find something
1962
01:54:45,000 --> 01:54:47,000
else.
The Lord is guiding them to, I
1963
01:54:47,000 --> 01:54:51,400
hope that they are engaged in
the cause of Christ to defend Us
1964
01:54:51,400 --> 01:54:54,900
in this time.
That is something that all the
1965
01:54:54,900 --> 01:54:59,600
ancient prophets saw and
prophesied of and if they are
1966
01:54:59,600 --> 01:55:03,300
engaged in their apart of that.
And so that that we can be found
1967
01:55:03,300 --> 01:55:07,100
together as we build Zion and
Therefore, the return of the
1968
01:55:07,108 --> 01:55:09,200
savior.
Perfect.
1969
01:55:09,200 --> 01:55:11,100
That's awesome.
All right, real quick.
1970
01:55:11,100 --> 01:55:13,500
What's the name of the book
coming out in three weeks?
1971
01:55:13,900 --> 01:55:17,600
It will, huh?
It's to be determined but it is
1972
01:55:18,500 --> 01:55:22,000
how the international conspiracy
has infiltrated your community
1973
01:55:22,600 --> 01:55:25,500
perfect.
And they find that where tree of
1974
01:55:25,500 --> 01:55:29,100
Liberty Society, if you just
subscribe to our email list, you
1975
01:55:29,100 --> 01:55:32,900
will get a free PDF copy and
you'll be notified when the
1976
01:55:32,900 --> 01:55:34,800
print copies are available.
Awesome.
1977
01:55:35,600 --> 01:55:38,500
Then dude, it was awesome.
I'm talking to you.
1978
01:55:38,500 --> 01:55:41,100
I can't so much for the invite.
I can't tell you how much I
1979
01:55:41,108 --> 01:55:44,000
enjoyed our conversation and
let's not make this one-time
1980
01:55:44,000 --> 01:55:46,700
thing as things continue to
progress.
1981
01:55:46,700 --> 01:55:49,400
And I've said this to all my
guests and I mean it because
1982
01:55:49,400 --> 01:55:53,000
I've already proven it.
If there's something that comes
1983
01:55:53,000 --> 01:55:56,000
up that you feel like needs to
get out, you hit me up and I'll
1984
01:55:56,000 --> 01:56:00,000
make, I'll make the time and,
and likewise, when I see certain
1985
01:56:00,000 --> 01:56:02,700
things come up on my radar, I'll
reach out to you.
1986
01:56:02,900 --> 01:56:06,200
And let's, let's let's let's
keep doing this because I feel
1987
01:56:06,200 --> 01:56:09,700
like it's important stuff that
you can't talk about the gospel
1988
01:56:09,700 --> 01:56:14,700
without talking about Liberty
and individual Freedom.
1989
01:56:14,700 --> 01:56:16,400
So let's not make this a
one-time thing.
1990
01:56:16,400 --> 01:56:18,400
All right, bud, I look forward
to it.
1991
01:56:18,600 --> 01:56:21,000
All right, you're awesome.
Everybody talking.
1992
01:56:21,100 --> 01:56:22,000
Next time.
Bye.
