Episode #32: Solutions for Preserving Liberty & Fulfilling Our Mandate as Mormons W/Enoch More Founder of Defending Utah
So I was just talking with a friend a couple days ago about the podcast. He said “Dave I love the podcast but you have had a few episodes that seem out of place on a podcast about Mormonism.” I asked which ones and he told me the ones I have done about liberty and freedom. In response to that I want to read the following quote from Brigham Young
“Every organization of our government, the best government in the world, is crumbling to pieces. Those who have it in their hands are the ones who are destroying it. How long will it be before the words of the prophet Joseph will be fulfilled? He said if the Constitution of the United States were saved at all it must be done by this people. It will not be many years before these words come to pass.” (Brigham Young Journal of Discourses 12:204 )
Joseph Smith, Brigham Young, & many other early Church leaders understood that the Gospel could only thrive in an environment of liberty. So that’s why I have episodes on this podcast about liberty and freedom. The two are intertwined and cannot be separated. Furthermore Brigham states in that quote “He said if the Constitution of the United States were saved at all it must be done by this people.” We have a divine mandate as Mormons to preserve the Constitution of the United States.
On this episode I sit down and have a conversation with Enoch Moore. Enoch is the founder of Defending Utah. We have a fascinating conversation where we not only talk about the issues facing Utah and the nation but more importantly the solutions for ensuring our continued liberty and in turn the ability to continue to practice our religion.

00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:07,200
So just the other day, I was
sitting down with a good friend
2
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:09,900
and we were kind of talking
about the podcast and he said,
3
00:00:09,900 --> 00:00:12,500
Dave, I love what you're doing
with the podcast but you have a
4
00:00:12,500 --> 00:00:15,800
few episodes that seemed out of
place for a podcast about
5
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:18,300
Mormonism.
And so intrigued, I asked them,
6
00:00:18,300 --> 00:00:19,500
which ones are you talking
about?
7
00:00:19,500 --> 00:00:21,700
He said the ones you've done on
Liberty and freedom and
8
00:00:21,700 --> 00:00:24,400
politics.
Now in response I read the
9
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:26,300
following quote to him from
Brigham Young.
10
00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:30,400
And this comes at a journal of
discourses volume 12 page, 204
11
00:00:30,700 --> 00:00:33,000
there.
Brigham says every organization
12
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:35,300
of Government.
The best government in the world
13
00:00:35,300 --> 00:00:38,600
is crumbling to Pieces.
Those who have it in their hands
14
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:40,200
are the ones who are destroying
it.
15
00:00:40,500 --> 00:00:42,800
How long will it be?
Before the words of the Prophet?
16
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:46,500
Joseph Smith will be fulfilled.
He said, if the Constitution of
17
00:00:46,500 --> 00:00:50,300
the United States were saved, it
must be done by this people,
18
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:54,300
meaning the Mormons Brigham then
goes on and says it will not be
19
00:00:54,300 --> 00:00:57,400
many years.
Before these words come to pass,
20
00:00:57,900 --> 00:01:01,200
see Joseph Smith Brigham, Young
and many other early church
21
00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:03,200
leaders understood that the
gospel.
22
00:01:03,300 --> 00:01:05,900
Could only thrive in an
environment of Liberty.
23
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:09,000
So that's why I have these
episodes on the podcast about
24
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:11,500
Liberty and Freedom.
The two are intertwined and
25
00:01:11,500 --> 00:01:15,000
can't be separated.
Furthermore, going back to that,
26
00:01:15,100 --> 00:01:18,000
quote by Brigham Young.
That one part where he said, if
27
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,200
the Constitution of the United
States were saved at all.
28
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:25,500
It must be done by this people.
This is part of our divine
29
00:01:25,500 --> 00:01:29,500
mandate as Mormons to hold up
the Constitution of the United
30
00:01:29,500 --> 00:01:31,800
States.
And to save it on this episode,
31
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:33,200
I sit down and have a
conversation.
32
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:36,300
With Enoch more Enoch is the
founder of Defending Utah.
33
00:01:36,300 --> 00:01:39,100
We have a fascinating
conversation where we not only
34
00:01:39,100 --> 00:01:42,200
talk about the issues facing
Utah on the nation, but more
35
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:45,400
importantly the solutions for
ensuring our continued Liberty
36
00:01:45,700 --> 00:01:48,200
and in turn the ability to
continue to practice our
37
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:51,000
religion.
And that's next on this episode
38
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:58,100
of the Mormon Renegade podcast.
So, I just want to take a moment
39
00:01:58,100 --> 00:02:00,000
to thank you.
The Listener, when I started
40
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,700
this podcast I wasn't sure if
anyone would really listen.
41
00:02:02,700 --> 00:02:05,400
Now to my surprise, this thing
has taken on a life of its own
42
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:08,000
and that's all due to you the
listener, spending your time
43
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:11,000
here with me, and it means a
great deal to me now, as a
44
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,900
husband and father, I'm keenly
aware of how important time is.
45
00:02:13,900 --> 00:02:15,900
It feels like there's just never
enough of it.
46
00:02:16,100 --> 00:02:18,300
So when you are spending your
time here, listening to this
47
00:02:18,300 --> 00:02:22,700
podcast, I feel a responsibility
to never waste your time in that
48
00:02:22,700 --> 00:02:24,500
Spirit as this podcast has
grown.
49
00:02:24,500 --> 00:02:26,500
I feel like I need to do you the
listener.
50
00:02:26,700 --> 00:02:30,400
This, I want to continue to
produce good content and upgrade
51
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:34,000
the audio quality that takes
better equipment and better
52
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,800
software and that all takes
money.
53
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,600
Now, I've tried to advertise,
but you'd be surprised.
54
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,000
There's not a lot of people want
to advertise on a Mormon
55
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,600
fundamentalist podcast.
I know surprising right now if
56
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,100
you want to help support the
podcast, you can do that.
57
00:02:47,100 --> 00:02:50,000
One of two ways.
The first is go over to Mormon

61
00:02:59,700 --> 00:03:02,900

00:03:32,900 --> 00:03:36,200
inflation.

83
00:04:37,300 --> 00:04:40,700
So today on the podcast, I'm
super excited.
84
00:04:41,100 --> 00:04:45,900
I have on Enoch more.
And for those of you who follow
85
00:04:45,900 --> 00:04:49,000
Liberty and Utah whatsoever,
you're going to recognize that
86
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,300
name.
He is the founder of Defending
87
00:04:51,300 --> 00:04:56,200
Utah and one of the reasons I
had him on is because I feel
88
00:04:56,200 --> 00:05:00,600
like more than anybody else,
perhaps, he offers solutions to
89
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:06,000
what's really going on.
My life has been a weird set of
90
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:12,700
inflection points.
One is, is when I joined the LDS
91
00:05:12,700 --> 00:05:16,200
church and became Mormon, right?
That was a big one, the other
92
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:21,300
one came because of all things a
football game, I'm a huge Green
93
00:05:21,300 --> 00:05:24,800
Bay Packers Fan right.
My buddy, Mike he's a huge
94
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,900
Philadelphia Eagles fan.
They just played this phenomenal
95
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,600
playoff game and so we got to
talk and I wonder if they're
96
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,700
playing next season and sure
enough we find out they are
97
00:05:34,700 --> 00:05:36,500
they're playing on a Monday
night.
98
00:05:36,700 --> 00:05:39,100
So we take this trip out to
Philadelphia.
99
00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:43,400
This is about 2004.
To watch Green Bay and Philly
100
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,600
play.
But why were there?
101
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:47,400
We thought, you know, let's take
in the sights.
102
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:49,900
It's go see Independence Hall.
Let's go look at the Liberty
103
00:05:49,900 --> 00:05:54,900
Bell, blah, blah, blah, And
while I've always been an avid
104
00:05:54,900 --> 00:06:01,300
history buff, I wasn't
necessarily focused on the the
105
00:06:01,300 --> 00:06:05,100
revolutionary period.
But I remember when I walked
106
00:06:05,100 --> 00:06:08,200
into Independence Hall and I get
Goose Bumps talking about it.
107
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:12,000
Now, the spirit was there and it
said, something important
108
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:16,000
happened right here and that got
me reading.
109
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,500
And as I started to read, and
again, this is 2004.
110
00:06:19,500 --> 00:06:21,900
So we're three years removed
from 9/11.
111
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:24,800
Right?
And for anyone who's younger
112
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:28,400
than that used to be able to
walk into an airport, like an
113
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:31,500
hour and just go through a quick
security screen.
114
00:06:31,500 --> 00:06:35,000
You're on the plane down, naked
body scanners, just no naked
115
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:36,100
bodies.
Yanar.
116
00:06:36,100 --> 00:06:39,200
See how so no CSA?
Exactly.
117
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:43,100
So, as I started looking, I
realize how far off course we
118
00:06:43,100 --> 00:06:45,600
were and that inspired me to
read as much as I can.
119
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:49,500
So talking to someone like
yourself, I'm gonna super geeked
120
00:06:49,500 --> 00:06:52,000
out over this because I really
am a fiend.
121
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:56,000
Or the founders idea.
So I can't tell you how much I
122
00:06:56,008 --> 00:06:59,900
appreciate you being here.
Why I'm excited that you're
123
00:07:00,100 --> 00:07:01,300
invited me.
Thank you.
124
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,800
So real quick.
How did how did this all come
125
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,000
about, right?
Because like I pointed out
126
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:11,100
there's usually inflection
points in people's lives.
127
00:07:11,500 --> 00:07:18,200
What was yours to get you to
being the, the founder of
128
00:07:18,300 --> 00:07:22,700
Defending Utah?
So, you know, I'll going back a
129
00:07:22,700 --> 00:07:27,700
long time.
You know, I I always understood.
130
00:07:29,100 --> 00:07:33,200
The sacred nature of the
Constitution with the LDS
131
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:38,600
background that I have.
And as our Taft Benson was
132
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:43,100
always echoing in my mind, you
know, you will be the generation
133
00:07:43,100 --> 00:07:48,800
that will meet your God.
And then sending you know, the
134
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,700
greatest speaker for Liberty,
you know that we've had in
135
00:07:52,700 --> 00:07:56,600
modern times arguably, Ron
Paul's pretty amazing too.
136
00:07:58,900 --> 00:08:00,700
I agree.
So I guess we won't make it a
137
00:08:00,707 --> 00:08:02,800
contest of who's the greatest.
That's not my point.
138
00:08:02,900 --> 00:08:08,700
My point is, he was amazing.
And so that, that always was in
139
00:08:08,700 --> 00:08:11,800
the back of my mind, I have, you
know, Constitution matters.
140
00:08:12,100 --> 00:08:14,900
And there's this thing called
get an robbers.
141
00:08:14,900 --> 00:08:18,000
That Right.
And that just kind of germinated
142
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:23,800
slowly as I grew up and as I
just live my life to to a
143
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:36,400
certain point and I hit a point
in Maybe around 2008's and where
144
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:42,500
I watched a film Aaron Russo
freedom to Fascism.
145
00:08:42,799 --> 00:08:44,800
Okay.
That was when I first wake up
146
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:51,400
film and it was like, Having the
whole idea of getting robbers
147
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:53,200
and seek.
Accommodations in my head I
148
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,900
always thought.
What if you could like study the
149
00:08:56,900 --> 00:08:58,400
world and figure out who they
were?
150
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:03,600
But it was always this elusive,
almost like romantic movie idea
151
00:09:04,100 --> 00:09:08,900
of of what they were and then
all of a sudden I see this film
152
00:09:08,900 --> 00:09:15,600
and I'm like That plus I learned
about Saul Alinsky dedicating
153
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:17,200
his book because it's so you're
yeah.
154
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,900
And then I'm thinking, wait a
minute Rules for Radicals, this
155
00:09:19,900 --> 00:09:21,800
thing is real for Radicals.
That's right.
156
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:26,900
I'm thinking this is like right
in front of my face a little bit
157
00:09:26,900 --> 00:09:30,600
and and so I watched a number of
other videos new world order to
158
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:32,700
find was a next one.
And it was all within like a few
159
00:09:32,700 --> 00:09:34,300
days.
I watched all these videos and
160
00:09:34,300 --> 00:09:38,300
I'm just like Nah, I'm just, I'm
getting too excited here.
161
00:09:38,300 --> 00:09:41,500
Like, you know, these big
conspiracies, I'm looking Beyond
162
00:09:41,500 --> 00:09:45,400
The Mark, you know, I need to
just like, take a break from all
163
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:47,800
this for a few days.
And I had to like headed,
164
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:49,400
germinate, how to think about
it.
165
00:09:49,700 --> 00:09:55,100
But, but then, as I thought
about it, seriously and I
166
00:09:55,100 --> 00:09:59,900
studied more, and then, as I
watched more Benson, and I took
167
00:09:59,900 --> 00:10:03,100
the Constitution seriously, and
I know I got a lot of the basics
168
00:10:03,100 --> 00:10:05,300
on the, the founding fathers
from great.
169
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:10,000
Like I started coming across a
lot of John Birch videos and
170
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:14,200
also Stephen braat member him.
Yep, I do over 64.
171
00:10:14,500 --> 00:10:19,600
I went to some of his lectures
there when he was alive and my
172
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:24,900
gosh I loved the ideas and he
spoke with a lot of internal
173
00:10:24,900 --> 00:10:29,600
testimony of Liberty when when
he talked about things and his
174
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:32,700
presentation.
So I was influenced deeply by
175
00:10:32,700 --> 00:10:35,200
that but it became this critical
mass of knowledge.
176
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:39,500
From like this generic idea of
conspiracy and secret
177
00:10:39,500 --> 00:10:43,900
combinations of knowing about my
whole life has become so real.
178
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,400
And now there's this practical
understanding of its
179
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,700
relationship to our duties.
And and we're supposed to
180
00:10:50,700 --> 00:10:56,400
understand and learn and stand
for what's right in this world.
181
00:10:56,700 --> 00:11:04,300
So that was like, you know, a
period 2000, 2008 2010, ish and
182
00:11:04,700 --> 00:11:08,900
and I just We serious study, I
read every book I could find.
183
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:12,700
I looked into, you know, all the
organizations that were coming
184
00:11:12,700 --> 00:11:18,500
across social media, and emails
and spend some time.
185
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,800
So first I came to this
understanding of the solutions
186
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,100
to all of our problems were
already given to us by the
187
00:11:24,100 --> 00:11:27,700
founding fathers, right?
So at a national level the
188
00:11:27,700 --> 00:11:29,900
Constitution is the answer to
everything.
189
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,700
Right.
But then and of course not just
190
00:11:33,500 --> 00:11:36,600
Not just the document, but
internalizing understanding the
191
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,000
principles that were enshrined
in it.
192
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,500
So that, of course, takes
further study read The
193
00:11:42,500 --> 00:11:44,800
Federalist Papers.
And what would the experiences
194
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,500
that brought the founders to the
things they put in there and why
195
00:11:47,500 --> 00:11:50,500
they're there so forth?
But I thought.
196
00:11:50,500 --> 00:11:53,800
Okay, so easy answer if we just
had politicians to follow the
197
00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:56,600
Constitution and Congress that
would like fix all these
198
00:11:56,600 --> 00:12:00,000
problems.
The conspiracy makes that hard
199
00:12:00,100 --> 00:12:02,200
because it's not just that
simple.
200
00:12:02,500 --> 00:12:03,400
But I thought, what does that
mean?
201
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:06,200
At the local level?
II.
202
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:08,600
I spent some time.
Now in the John Birch Society,
203
00:12:09,300 --> 00:12:12,000
some other organizations that I
dabbled in by the way is
204
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:17,100
campaign for Liberty.
This Sutherland Institute which
205
00:12:17,100 --> 00:12:18,500
I write as I.
Yeah.
206
00:12:18,900 --> 00:12:22,800
Which I then learned that they
were not on the side of Liberty,
207
00:12:23,300 --> 00:12:27,600
they were conservative right?
But they were they I was
208
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:30,600
studying, you know, Obamacare
LED and how that was coming down
209
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:34,100
and I was like, hey, this thing
you're supporting is actually
210
00:12:34,100 --> 00:12:39,400
part of Obamacare.
So I was done with that and I
211
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,700
was always looking at, you know,
for good organizations and it
212
00:12:41,700 --> 00:12:44,400
was Benson's talk.
That said the John Birch Society
213
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,500
is the most effective
organization in standing up for
214
00:12:47,500 --> 00:12:50,600
Freedom.
The talk that he gave that I was
215
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:54,900
like, oh, we're those guys has
no, let's check them out.
216
00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,900
And I, so, I did a lot of
activism with them, and I
217
00:12:59,100 --> 00:13:02,700
created a chapter, I taught
Constitution courses through
218
00:13:02,700 --> 00:13:05,700
them, at my local library, I
Sighs.
219
00:13:05,700 --> 00:13:07,400
Hey, come learn about the
Constitution.
220
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:12,800
And so, that was fun and I
learned a lot from Robert Brown
221
00:13:12,900 --> 00:13:15,100
of the John Birch Society.
He's a, he's with their
222
00:13:15,100 --> 00:13:17,500
constitutional teacher.
He lives in Utah and now he's a
223
00:13:17,500 --> 00:13:19,100
great guy.
You know who he is?
224
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,100
Yeah bro.
Yep I've heard of him.
225
00:13:21,100 --> 00:13:24,900
I haven't met the gentleman.
Yep, he's got a lot of great
226
00:13:24,900 --> 00:13:26,900
stuff.
A lot of good content can find
227
00:13:26,900 --> 00:13:31,200
online. and one of the things
that the John Birch Society
228
00:13:31,300 --> 00:13:36,300
taught me as a chapter leader,
they have these videos as it
229
00:13:36,300 --> 00:13:42,700
said, how to build effective
chapters so, I took that to
230
00:13:42,700 --> 00:13:44,200
heart.
I try to take everything to
231
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,000
heart, right?
I tried to really make a
232
00:13:46,008 --> 00:13:48,000
difference in everything I did
here.
233
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:53,300
And so they talked about
separating your chapter with
234
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:57,200
someone assigned to, you know,
different duties and delegating.
235
00:13:57,500 --> 00:13:59,700
But then having someone focused
on local issues.
236
00:14:00,100 --> 00:14:02,200
I was like, that's great.
Like that's really what we need
237
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:03,800
because I'm trying to figure out
what does this mean?
238
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:07,100
Locally, know, how do I vote on
my city council and so forth?
239
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,300
Interrupt me anytime, by the
way, knows a good have a lot.
240
00:14:10,300 --> 00:14:11,300
You're good.
You're here.
241
00:14:11,500 --> 00:14:14,000
Good.
Yeah, you're at listen more of
242
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:15,700
you and less of me is always a
good thing.
243
00:14:15,700 --> 00:14:22,500
So feel free.
So so the so I started this blog
244
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:27,000
called the offending Utah so
that I could write about my
245
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:29,700
Adventures.
It was initially my John Birch
246
00:14:29,700 --> 00:14:31,300
activism.
Okay.
247
00:14:31,500 --> 00:14:35,300
To it was an outgrowth of that
because I learned about Agenda
248
00:14:35,300 --> 00:14:39,600
21, I started investigating the
city planning code of all the
249
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:43,000
cities because I learned how to
identify if your cities
250
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,800
implementing Agenda, 21 and so
forth.
251
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:50,200
I went to me.
In Provo called the Provo 50
252
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:53,800
Summit.
And and I saw how Agenda 21
253
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,500
work, they how they how these
meetings happen, where they
254
00:14:56,500 --> 00:15:00,800
pretend to get community input
with a pre-planned agenda.
255
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:04,000
I learned later was called the
Delphi method, right?
256
00:15:04,900 --> 00:15:09,800
Real quick, for anyone who
doesn't know, explain what
257
00:15:11,100 --> 00:15:15,600
Agenda 21 is.
So I'll probably actually get
258
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:17,600
into that a little more later
because we're going to talk
259
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:22,700
about Okay, lucian's but as a
brief intro, it's is the United
260
00:15:22,700 --> 00:15:26,000
Nations program to implement
Global communism, under the
261
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:29,800
excuse of environmentalism and
that's kind of what what I had
262
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:33,300
taken away after I read it.
Because I remember I first heard
263
00:15:33,300 --> 00:15:41,000
about this probably 2010, I
guess is when I first heard
264
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:45,700
about it and as a land surveyor,
I'm always curious about land
265
00:15:45,700 --> 00:15:49,400
law and they used a lot of
landline there, right, right.
266
00:15:49,500 --> 00:15:53,000
And and bottom line is and like
you said, we'll get into it
267
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,900
more, it was more about trying
to get people to Cluster into
268
00:15:55,900 --> 00:15:59,600
the mega cities, right?
And then depopulating, the, the
269
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:01,900
center of the country.
Is that good /.
270
00:16:01,900 --> 00:16:05,700
Absolutely absolutely.
And, and it's funny how how the
271
00:16:05,900 --> 00:16:08,200
Under the excuse of
environmentalism they want to
272
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:11,300
say.
Let's preserve the Wilderness
273
00:16:11,300 --> 00:16:14,800
areas out here by moving all the
people in here.
274
00:16:15,900 --> 00:16:19,600
And the excuse today is
environmentalism but you can go
275
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:23,700
back 100 years communist Nations
have always done the DIY density
276
00:16:23,700 --> 00:16:25,800
housing type thing.
Yep.
277
00:16:26,100 --> 00:16:28,800
And so it's how they control the
population.
278
00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:33,900
So if you don't own land and
property and your borders and
279
00:16:33,900 --> 00:16:37,600
like an apartment building, your
property rights are naturally
280
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,300
swallowed up with your neighbors
because you share the same wall
281
00:16:40,300 --> 00:16:42,100
you up.
You don't need legislation to
282
00:16:42,100 --> 00:16:43,700
say now.
You got to think about the
283
00:16:43,700 --> 00:16:46,600
greater good a little bit more
because The your wall is shared
284
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:49,000
with your neighbor and you have
to respect each other's, you
285
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,200
know, probably, right?
So these are natural ways to
286
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:58,200
take away our freedoms by losing
property rights in can't grow
287
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:01,700
food, you know?
And when you're a smaller space
288
00:17:01,700 --> 00:17:05,599
it's easier to implement
surveillance on a population and
289
00:17:05,599 --> 00:17:09,000
just so many of those things
that add up to why that works
290
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:13,099
for the tyrants.
You know, the other thing you
291
00:17:13,099 --> 00:17:17,200
talked about or the You said
something that caught my eye.
292
00:17:17,500 --> 00:17:21,200
And that was earlier.
You said, when you were first
293
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,000
learning about this, you said,
I'm just looking Beyond The
294
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:28,400
Mark, right?
I need to ruminate that was one
295
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:30,900
of the things that drove me
nuts, right?
296
00:17:30,900 --> 00:17:32,600
Is talking to other mormont's,
right?
297
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:38,100
Because as Mormons, we are one
of the few denominations, I'm
298
00:17:38,100 --> 00:17:40,800
trying to think of another and
maybe there are some and I just
299
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:46,000
can't think of it where the few
who believe that the The
300
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:49,100
Declaration of Independence, the
Constitution, the Bill of
301
00:17:49,100 --> 00:17:53,000
Rights, those are our darn near
scripture, right?
302
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:58,700
Those comes from the lips of God
to righteous men for a righteous
303
00:17:58,700 --> 00:18:00,900
cause, right?
And so as I would talk to people
304
00:18:00,900 --> 00:18:04,500
about whether it was Agenda 21
or some of these other things in
305
00:18:04,508 --> 00:18:08,100
there, like I don't believe in
conspiracy and I remember
306
00:18:08,100 --> 00:18:10,900
thinking, but you believe the
Book of Mormon, right?
307
00:18:10,900 --> 00:18:14,000
And that's thing is littered
with conspiracy especially at
308
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:17,100
the end.
So So, but those are just
309
00:18:17,100 --> 00:18:20,700
interesting stories.
Someone robbed and right, right?
310
00:18:20,700 --> 00:18:24,000
And I'm like, bro, this is a
sacred record of historical
311
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:27,600
facts of the most important
things we need to see and people
312
00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:32,200
forget that there's, there are
two ways God is dealing with his
313
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:35,900
people.
One is on a, on a personal
314
00:18:35,900 --> 00:18:40,300
level, right?
A person and their family, and
315
00:18:40,300 --> 00:18:43,600
those kind of covenants.
But we forget that the Book of
316
00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:48,600
Mormon, even as It may be a
little bit more deals with the
317
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,000
national Covenant, as well,
right?
318
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:54,100
Where, hey, if you do these
things, you'll be preserved
319
00:18:54,100 --> 00:18:56,700
here.
But you screw off, you don't
320
00:18:56,700 --> 00:18:59,800
walk up to this, National
Covenant will.
321
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,700
Why I'll wipe you off the land?
Yeah, right.
322
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:07,900
And I think that things like
Jamestown, you know, we forget
323
00:19:07,900 --> 00:19:11,000
that there were certain
settlements that never got up
324
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:15,500
and running probably because
they weren't, Hadn't figured
325
00:19:15,500 --> 00:19:18,900
that Covenant out yet, and they
were just wiped out.
326
00:19:18,900 --> 00:19:22,400
And, and it drove me nuts a lot,
because I feel like we, as
327
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:24,700
Mormons, we ought to know
better, right?
328
00:19:24,700 --> 00:19:28,100
We got a whole book of scripture
that happened here.
329
00:19:29,500 --> 00:19:32,900
Right.
Absolutely so yeah that's that
330
00:19:32,900 --> 00:19:34,800
that just that just caught me by
surprise.
331
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:36,900
So you get you get your blog
going.
332
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:40,900
When does defending Utah really
begin to blossom into the
333
00:19:40,900 --> 00:19:46,800
organization is sure so so you
know for a while it was just
334
00:19:47,900 --> 00:19:50,700
finding these things that
nobody's talking about behind
335
00:19:50,700 --> 00:19:53,800
the scenes in the cities.
That was kind of my first you
336
00:19:53,808 --> 00:19:58,300
know discoveries you know,
watching how these these
337
00:19:58,300 --> 00:20:02,600
meetings Where they're just, you
know, railroading all of us, you
338
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:05,900
know, and when no one's looking
and then they'll say well we had
339
00:20:05,900 --> 00:20:08,400
a meeting, didn't you show up
and give us your opinion you
340
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:12,500
know and same pattern.
They use around the world and
341
00:20:12,700 --> 00:20:16,200
actually confronted a un lady in
2019 on that very thing.
342
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:22,300
Nice she goes well we have to
because otherwise you're like
343
00:20:22,300 --> 00:20:26,800
children and you won't along
with the like yeah that's a
344
00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:28,300
video.
We never put out but I got the
345
00:20:28,300 --> 00:20:30,300
footage.
Oh yeah.
346
00:20:30,300 --> 00:20:32,100
So anyway, that was a little
fast for it.
347
00:20:32,300 --> 00:20:35,100
So I'm putting out these things
in the blog as we're starting to
348
00:20:35,100 --> 00:20:40,100
learn things and you know
definitely we're learning as we
349
00:20:40,108 --> 00:20:41,700
go here.
Right?
350
00:20:41,700 --> 00:20:44,000
We just have a passion for doing
the right thing, uncovering
351
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:49,000
truths and we're creating our
social media presence.
352
00:20:49,900 --> 00:20:53,100
And not first, it was just me
publishing, you know what I
353
00:20:53,108 --> 00:20:57,400
write.
And then very quickly, we start
354
00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:06,100
to gather other Come on board
and it was, it was in about
355
00:21:06,300 --> 00:21:11,000
2000.
Let's see 2015.
356
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:19,300
So 2013 is when I started the
blog early 2013, and by 2015, we
357
00:21:19,300 --> 00:21:25,400
put together a presentation We
called it stopping modern-day
358
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,900
Gaddy at and robbers, right?
So we've done on this
359
00:21:28,900 --> 00:21:33,600
investigation, This research of
remember how I said we that that
360
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,400
we're looking for local things
where I said I wanted to know,
361
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:39,000
this is the solution nationally.
What's the solution locally?
362
00:21:39,300 --> 00:21:43,700
Well Robert, well to the John
Birch Society had identified the
363
00:21:43,700 --> 00:21:47,400
problem and the solution, but to
me it was like National.
364
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:51,000
The problem is the conspiracy.
That's why they're so effective.
365
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:52,400
They called the enemy.
What it is.
366
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:54,700
It's a Pharisee.
So you didn't beat around the
367
00:21:54,700 --> 00:21:58,600
bush and that, that led the
jumper Society, to be able to
368
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:02,600
understand strategies and
tactics that were effective
369
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:06,900
without calling it that.
And identifying, as that your
370
00:22:06,900 --> 00:22:11,000
Solutions, often times become
part of the problem or just
371
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:14,600
pointless, right?
And that's because of, there's a
372
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:17,200
conspiracy and they have
controlled opposition activist.
373
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,900
So, looking here, that locally
Right?
374
00:22:20,900 --> 00:22:23,400
We had gone down this Rabbit
Hole of investigating.
375
00:22:23,900 --> 00:22:26,200
Where is that conspiracy
locally?
376
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:30,600
Our own backyard, right?
And so long story short, we put
377
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:35,500
together all of our initial
findings into this presentation.
378
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:42,900
Where we did this event sold out
within days titled, it stopping
379
00:22:42,900 --> 00:22:46,500
modern day getting and robbers
and people got really excited
380
00:22:46,500 --> 00:22:48,100
about it.
And we just went through the
381
00:22:48,100 --> 00:22:53,500
history of the From 1776, from
who started with the Bavarian
382
00:22:53,500 --> 00:22:57,000
Illuminati that was around for
10 years and we trace the
383
00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:02,000
conspiracy up through time.
The the Bavarian Illuminati was
384
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:07,500
an an actual Organization for 10
years and then went underground
385
00:23:07,500 --> 00:23:12,600
after they were found out and
the authorities went after them
386
00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,700
for conspiracy to overthrow the
governments of Europe, to to if
387
00:23:15,700 --> 00:23:18,900
I'm not mistaken George washed.
There's actually a handwritten
388
00:23:18,900 --> 00:23:22,400
letter I know I'm not mistaking
because I've seen it from George
389
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:26,100
Washington, who was a Freemason
who was warning other Mason's
390
00:23:26,100 --> 00:23:30,400
about not letting members of the
Illuminati into Freemasonry,
391
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:35,600
That's, I don't know if he has
written letters.
392
00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:40,800
If I've seen that exact one,
you're referring to, but we
393
00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:43,800
quote some of the George
Washington letters in our
394
00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:47,200
initial presentation that we
came up with and and that is
395
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:50,900
still available.
So but absolutely, you're right.
396
00:23:50,900 --> 00:23:53,700
Like, the original Freemasonry
was there.
397
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:57,000
It wasn't like, people say, oh,
the Masons are the Illuminati or
398
00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:58,500
something like that.
And that's not.
399
00:23:58,500 --> 00:24:02,900
How does that work?
That The the Illuminati was a
400
00:24:02,908 --> 00:24:08,800
branch in Bavaria, right?
And it will in their in their
401
00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:12,200
own words, they talked about how
they infiltrated some local
402
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:16,200
lodges, they're trying to use
that influence and then they
403
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:20,100
were found out and, you know,
and that was how it started
404
00:24:20,100 --> 00:24:24,300
anyway the landscape today, you
know, as a whole different
405
00:24:24,300 --> 00:24:26,900
discussion.
But as far as in the beginning,
406
00:24:26,900 --> 00:24:30,600
you know, when you talk about
Joseph Smith being a Mason and
407
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:33,600
Is watching them?
Yeah, that that is not
408
00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:35,400
synonymous with Illuminati,
right?
409
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:37,900
That that's the point, right?
And people in, that's very clear
410
00:24:37,900 --> 00:24:40,700
from the history.
But anyway, so we trace the
411
00:24:40,708 --> 00:24:44,600
Bavarian Illuminati because we
start there now that this
412
00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:49,200
conspiracy goes back to Kane
shut, but you can trace it very
413
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:52,500
clearly throughout history
without question going back to
414
00:24:52,500 --> 00:24:55,100
1776 when Adam Weiss helped form
this.
415
00:24:55,500 --> 00:24:59,600
And it came up with his official
like the doctrines of the
416
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:04,200
Illuminati, Which are, you know,
you can lay it side by side with
417
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:08,100
the Communist Manifesto, right?
And so this is how you identify
418
00:25:08,100 --> 00:25:11,600
the opposite of the things that
actually promote Liberty, these
419
00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:15,000
principles, you know, as far as,
you know, Taxation and the
420
00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:18,600
abolition of private property
and those sorts of things.
421
00:25:19,300 --> 00:25:26,000
So, going forth, their
Illuminati disbanded and you can
422
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,800
trace it to another organization
called the club of the Jacobins.
423
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:31,900
And then, you can trace that
Another organization called the
424
00:25:31,900 --> 00:25:35,400
carbonari, which you can trace
the mafia out of that.
425
00:25:36,100 --> 00:25:40,200
And, and it just goes on and on.
And on, you can trace this to
426
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:44,100
Modern revolutionary tradition.
So we outline that to everybody
427
00:25:44,100 --> 00:25:46,900
said, hey guys, there's a
conspiracy here's where it
428
00:25:46,900 --> 00:25:48,900
started.
Here's the high level points.
429
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:53,200
Here are some of our sources and
some books, you can read and and
430
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:56,900
then we traced, it all it all
the way through to Utah.
431
00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:00,900
And up to modern day and said,
here's a problem in your own
432
00:26:00,900 --> 00:26:03,200
backyard.
We want to do something about it
433
00:26:03,500 --> 00:26:05,700
and so that was kind of, when
you say grew into the
434
00:26:05,700 --> 00:26:09,200
organization you had today, that
was when we first presented,
435
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:13,200
this idea the public and we
invited people to be involved.
436
00:26:14,300 --> 00:26:17,100
And they're already where people
involved at that point, but it
437
00:26:17,100 --> 00:26:19,900
was, it was like the started
really telling people.
438
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:22,200
Here's some good ideas, we can
Implement.
439
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:28,600
And from that point forward we
have I can say for sure.
440
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,800
My mindset has always been what
do we do about it.
441
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:34,500
Right.
There's so much you can learn in
442
00:26:34,500 --> 00:26:38,200
the world about what problems
are out there.
443
00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:42,300
There's far less on real
practical application of what to
444
00:26:42,300 --> 00:26:46,000
do about it.
And sometimes, you know, I mean
445
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:49,100
I didn't have clearly I don't
have all the answers and I
446
00:26:49,100 --> 00:26:52,200
didn't have all the answers and
you know, what are all the
447
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:53,700
answers?
But I had a passion to
448
00:26:53,700 --> 00:26:57,300
understand how you find the
answers and what are the
449
00:26:57,300 --> 00:26:59,900
principles that we build our
answers upon.
450
00:27:00,700 --> 00:27:03,100
And so you can see over the
years, I have a couple power
451
00:27:03,100 --> 00:27:06,300
points where I walk through our
solution strategies over the
452
00:27:06,300 --> 00:27:10,300
years and how they've evolved.
And actually, what I'm working
453
00:27:10,300 --> 00:27:16,200
on right now is a decade,
culmination of the patterns of
454
00:27:16,208 --> 00:27:18,700
the solutions.
And now here's where we are
455
00:27:18,700 --> 00:27:21,600
today.
And so I'm planning to hopefully
456
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:27,000
unveil that this year, nice.
And I may give some teasers at
457
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:29,700
the Firm Foundation Expo.
Not sure haven't finished that
458
00:27:29,700 --> 00:27:33,700
presentation, nice.
But but my goal is to have that
459
00:27:33,700 --> 00:27:39,100
out there so that we can Help.
People feel empowered.
460
00:27:39,100 --> 00:27:45,300
I feel it's so empowering when
you have, when you internalize
461
00:27:45,300 --> 00:27:47,400
the solutions and these
solutions they came from, the
462
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,800
founding fathers.
And they've come from our years
463
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:53,000
of experience of trying, one
thing and trying another seeing
464
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,300
one thing work in the, John
Birch Society, seeing something
465
00:27:55,300 --> 00:27:56,700
else work with the penny
tossing?
466
00:27:56,700 --> 00:28:01,000
Something else fell.
I was obsessed with what works
467
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:03,600
and why what didn't work?
How come that failed?
468
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:05,200
This is, this has been my
passion.
469
00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:11,300
And, and then, when I what I
feel, I've come to I look back
470
00:28:11,300 --> 00:28:14,500
at the founding fathers.
I'm like, that's what they did.
471
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:20,400
They have passion and and it's
not talking about, oh, we need
472
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,600
to have a revolutionary war.
That's not the point.
473
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:25,300
Not the point at all.
The coin are the principles of
474
00:28:25,300 --> 00:28:27,100
Liberty.
They stood on and the
475
00:28:27,100 --> 00:28:31,200
philosophies that how they
acknowledge natural law, and how
476
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:35,900
empowered we are to take control
of our own lives and our Teas,
477
00:28:35,900 --> 00:28:40,000
and, and that's kind of what I
want to get across to people, to
478
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:43,100
help people feel empowered, no
matter where you are in the
479
00:28:43,100 --> 00:28:48,500
world, the same natural law
principles can be implemented
480
00:28:48,500 --> 00:28:50,800
effectively.
Dude, I couldn't agree with you
481
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:56,100
more and so often and I think
it's natural especially in the
482
00:28:56,100 --> 00:28:59,500
time we live in.
Now, in this age, that, that I
483
00:28:59,500 --> 00:29:07,100
contend we haven't seen since
certainly the Real Revolution as
484
00:29:07,100 --> 00:29:09,100
far as these technology
advancements.
485
00:29:09,100 --> 00:29:14,300
And I think we tend to want to
look forward for answers, right?
486
00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:16,800
Probably, because we're at Texas
I-80.
487
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:18,900
Now what's the latest and
greatest thing?
488
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:23,700
However, principles work
differently and sometimes when
489
00:29:23,700 --> 00:29:27,700
you find in and I'm about to
make my audience, throw up again
490
00:29:27,700 --> 00:29:31,200
because they've heard this as a
land surveyor, right?
491
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:34,500
You go and you measure something
and let's say you're off.
492
00:29:36,300 --> 00:29:41,200
Two seconds in your angle right,
in a foot it doesn't make a
493
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:45,900
difference in 100 feet.
It doesn't make a difference
494
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:50,100
maybe even in a thousand feet.
You're only seeing a couple
495
00:29:50,100 --> 00:29:54,000
hundreds of a foot but you go
far enough and you're going to
496
00:29:54,008 --> 00:29:56,600
miss your mark and you're going
to miss your mark and Tire.
497
00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:59,900
And sometimes we need a course.
Correction.
498
00:30:00,300 --> 00:30:05,000
We need to check where it is.
We started from And then go
499
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:07,300
right.
Oh hell, we lost our way.
500
00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,000
Yeah.
And then get back on that.
501
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:13,000
So sometimes it takes looking
backwards to find the answer
502
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:17,800
that we need.
Now, I'm not look, I'm too lazy
503
00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:22,000
to live in the 1700's again
because I just really like
504
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:24,400
football and sitting on the
couch and watching TV.
505
00:30:24,700 --> 00:30:27,500
Right?
So I'm not going back to that
506
00:30:27,900 --> 00:30:30,100
but those principles are
Timeless.
507
00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:33,000
Yeah.
And so going back is super,
508
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:35,600
super important.
The other thing you said there
509
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:39,300
that I think I'm glad you said
it, and it's something I want to
510
00:30:39,308 --> 00:30:42,600
drive home.
Is this idea that what's let's
511
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:46,800
not grab our guns yet, right?
I don't want a, bloody
512
00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:49,800
Revolution.
I believe that the founders gave
513
00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:53,700
us the system.
We have now So that we could
514
00:30:53,700 --> 00:30:56,200
have a revolution every couple
years.
515
00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:00,700
If we're smart enough in our
voting patterns.
516
00:31:00,700 --> 00:31:04,300
And if we truly look at things,
well, it's definitely something
517
00:31:04,300 --> 00:31:08,100
to be said about voting system,
not functioning properly sure.
518
00:31:08,100 --> 00:31:10,600
Sir, right.
And so sometimes you don't want,
519
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:13,400
I don't want to give the easy,
you know.
520
00:31:14,100 --> 00:31:17,300
It's not like the system works
and so we have traditional
521
00:31:17,300 --> 00:31:18,600
Solutions.
People sell us.
522
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:22,800
Write your Congressman, you
know, run for office yourself,
523
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:25,500
get elect, you know those are
all good things when things are
524
00:31:25,500 --> 00:31:29,100
working in a healthy way.
But the founding fathers, they
525
00:31:29,100 --> 00:31:32,000
were in his position where they
the same problem.
526
00:31:32,300 --> 00:31:34,200
Things were not working in a
healthy way, read the
527
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,300
Declaration of Independence,
what were their grievances,
528
00:31:36,300 --> 00:31:38,100
right?
You're like, inventing, these
529
00:31:38,100 --> 00:31:40,500
courts, you're just throwing us
in jail for no reason.
530
00:31:40,500 --> 00:31:42,700
You're doing another got this
whole list of things and that
531
00:31:42,700 --> 00:31:46,600
you're violating the British
constitution he had limits on
532
00:31:46,608 --> 00:31:49,100
his powers, right?
They talked about pretend
533
00:31:49,100 --> 00:31:50,900
legislation, you can't write
those laws.
534
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:54,400
They're doing all the things
today that they were doing back
535
00:31:54,400 --> 00:32:00,700
that clearly worse, right?
So, They didn't say also, you
536
00:32:00,700 --> 00:32:06,300
know, let's just use our system,
but but they didn't go straight
537
00:32:06,300 --> 00:32:10,200
to what you're saying, right?
There's, there's an intelligent
538
00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:13,800
way to understand, natural law
in and how this applies?
539
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:16,400
So let me see if I can explain
this.
540
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:21,400
So, generally people think,
Governments doing this.
541
00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:23,200
Let's change the law so they
can't do it.
542
00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:25,000
That's kind of the first go to
in your brain.
543
00:32:25,100 --> 00:32:28,000
Right?
Well let's get our Congressman
544
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:31,100
to change the law or and if
things are functioning properly
545
00:32:31,100 --> 00:32:33,200
that could remedy problems,
right?
546
00:32:34,300 --> 00:32:42,300
But but experience has shown
that you can't, they're going to
547
00:32:42,300 --> 00:32:45,900
keep making illegal laws.
They're going to keep making
548
00:32:46,300 --> 00:32:50,100
mandates that they're not
allowed to make by law that the
549
00:32:50,500 --> 00:32:53,300
Constitution restricts them,
from doing their going to keep
550
00:32:53,300 --> 00:32:56,100
pretending like it's okay that
they do it, right?
551
00:32:56,100 --> 00:33:02,600
So they done so much, you know,
they made such a mess of the
552
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:06,200
system and they've confused Us
in so many ways.
553
00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:10,000
It's like to rely on law man's
law.
554
00:33:10,900 --> 00:33:14,100
It's become so vague and
abstract, and what can you
555
00:33:14,100 --> 00:33:18,100
depend on whereas nature, never
changes, right?
556
00:33:18,100 --> 00:33:21,600
So if you could understand the
law, Laws of nature and see how
557
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:26,400
those laws of nature, apply, you
can create cause and effects in
558
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:28,900
a way.
You don't care what laws.
559
00:33:28,900 --> 00:33:31,600
They write.
The laws of nature was still
560
00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:34,500
apply, right?
Gravity will always be the same,
561
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:37,200
whether you legislate it and say
gravity is illegal.
562
00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:43,600
But this is the same laws that
govern the rise and fall of
563
00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:46,600
power and influence.
These are natural laws.
564
00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:53,700
And the way the conspiracy has
destroyed our nation is, is it's
565
00:33:53,700 --> 00:33:56,200
more through the natural laws.
They're taking advantage of,
566
00:33:56,200 --> 00:34:02,400
then the legislative, the, the
politics that they play follows
567
00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:05,600
the culture first and they use
natural laws to change the
568
00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:08,199
culture.
So Fluence.
569
00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:12,600
And and so this is also what the
founders did and a lot of what
570
00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:16,000
I'm going to talk about in my
presentation, when I do that.
571
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:20,699
So I agree with you that they're
doing a lot of the same things
572
00:34:20,699 --> 00:34:23,900
that that they did.
You know that the crown did to
573
00:34:23,900 --> 00:34:26,300
the colonists.
I guess the one thing that gives
574
00:34:26,300 --> 00:34:30,400
me hope is that we already have
a framework in place, right?
575
00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:33,100
Yeah.
And and so in a lot of ways, I
576
00:34:33,100 --> 00:34:35,699
look at it and I say we don't
need a Bloody Revolution.
577
00:34:35,699 --> 00:34:39,500
What we need is to get back.
To what we were doing.
578
00:34:39,699 --> 00:34:42,800
Totally right.
And and and I think we can can
579
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:46,800
preserve it that way.
The other thing that I would say
580
00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:52,600
is that they're still
nullification, right?
581
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:55,100
I mean which is, which is my
that's actually one of the
582
00:34:55,100 --> 00:34:58,500
biggest points nullification it,
relies on the natural law, it's
583
00:34:58,500 --> 00:35:00,600
an area check and balance,
right?
584
00:35:00,700 --> 00:35:04,500
And and then and then yeah,
through nullification there
585
00:35:04,500 --> 00:35:06,600
there, I feel like there's a lot
we can do.
586
00:35:06,900 --> 00:35:11,400
I will say this, if we're going
to go down the Nullification
587
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:14,600
route, which I'm totally in
favor of, we have to be willing
588
00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:17,800
to go to jail, right?
And I hate to say it that way,
589
00:35:18,100 --> 00:35:24,300
but we're talking about peaceful
nonviolent. but resistance right
590
00:35:25,300 --> 00:35:29,300
that will the founders certainly
sign this sacred on us he ever
591
00:35:29,300 --> 00:35:36,200
out but I believe that even a
properly implemented I think it
592
00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:41,800
will won't be as necessary even
that as some people fear because
593
00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:45,600
because natural laws on our
side.
594
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:47,900
Yeah.
That if that's my point and it's
595
00:35:47,900 --> 00:35:50,600
hard for me to totally get into
that without showing you my
596
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:53,100
presentation.
That's not here that have
597
00:35:53,100 --> 00:35:56,900
unveiled yet, but, but it's the
idea of nullification.
598
00:35:57,500 --> 00:36:02,400
It's very simple where I mask I
don't want to write and as soon
599
00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:05,400
as three people don't wear the
mask or 10 people, Wearing it
600
00:36:05,700 --> 00:36:11,700
then, you know that catches on.
And so I guess I can speak a
601
00:36:11,700 --> 00:36:16,000
little bit to how this works.
I guess I don't want you ruining
602
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,100
your presentation.
Yeah, no, no.
603
00:36:18,100 --> 00:36:26,300
So so there was a The tyrants in
power want to keep the illusion
604
00:36:26,300 --> 00:36:31,400
that they are in control, right?
So if they say everyone wear a
605
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:33,500
mask and everyone does they say
good job.
606
00:36:33,500 --> 00:36:37,000
You're doing that because we
told you so People stopped
607
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:40,800
wearing it.
It's a few Misfits, they'll make
608
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:44,300
fun of you on the news.
Bill you know crazy man.
609
00:36:44,300 --> 00:36:46,800
At the grocery store wouldn't
wear his mask and now old lady
610
00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:51,700
died of covid, you know, but if
if half the people in the
611
00:36:51,700 --> 00:36:57,300
community just don't do it or or
even just a small chunk and Then
612
00:36:57,300 --> 00:36:59,800
it can, everyone else is like, I
don't want to wear that either.
613
00:37:00,900 --> 00:37:04,100
This is what happened when when
the school's stop pushing it.
614
00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:07,400
If you remember, at the end of
the school year in the 2021
615
00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:13,700
school year, There was finally
one school board oz in southern
616
00:37:13,700 --> 00:37:16,200
Utah.
That said, students don't have
617
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:18,700
to do it.
This is a less than a month.
618
00:37:18,700 --> 00:37:22,200
I believe before the school year
ended and up to this point the
619
00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:25,200
governor was saying there's a
mandate in effect.
620
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:28,600
So You know, till the end of the
school year.
621
00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:32,900
But as soon as the school did
put that in place and half the
622
00:37:32,900 --> 00:37:37,900
kids show up, not wearing it.
And now it's and then, and then
623
00:37:37,900 --> 00:37:39,600
very shortly.
Nobody's wearing it.
624
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:47,400
The governor says oh we're
releasing the Mandate right as
625
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:51,500
if that was my plan all along.
So you'll find that when
626
00:37:51,500 --> 00:37:54,900
communities work together
intelligently and effectively
627
00:37:54,900 --> 00:37:56,600
and they're educated on what
they're doing.
628
00:37:57,200 --> 00:38:00,300
They know why they don't have to
wear a mask not just doing it
629
00:38:00,300 --> 00:38:02,400
because they're mad.
They're, you know, they're, I'm
630
00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:04,900
not going to wear masks because
I don't want you to tell me what
631
00:38:04,900 --> 00:38:07,700
to do.
It's it's they understand what
632
00:38:07,700 --> 00:38:09,500
their rights are and they can
intelligently.
633
00:38:09,900 --> 00:38:13,800
Relate them to the, to the rest
of the community, who may not,
634
00:38:14,700 --> 00:38:17,500
you know, know why you're not
listening to the rules and that
635
00:38:17,500 --> 00:38:21,700
catches on, there's a community
effect, right?
636
00:38:21,700 --> 00:38:26,600
There's, there's an overall
effects and tyrants back down is
637
00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:28,500
they don't want to look like,
they're not in charge.
638
00:38:29,100 --> 00:38:32,900
So, let me ask you this.
Do you think that what happened
639
00:38:32,900 --> 00:38:35,000
in southern Utah?
There, do you feel like that
640
00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:37,700
that was a coordinated effort?
Or do you think that was just a
641
00:38:37,700 --> 00:38:41,900
natural outgrowth of people?
Finally, Being like we're all
642
00:38:41,900 --> 00:38:45,100
going to get this.
It's the you know it's a bad flu
643
00:38:45,100 --> 00:38:48,800
or whatever it is and they just
stop doing it or do you believe
644
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:51,100
it was more coordinated.
So there was I can tell you.
645
00:38:51,107 --> 00:38:55,500
There are some coordination that
we were involved in some of the
646
00:38:55,500 --> 00:38:58,800
individuals down there that were
okay, that were doing that.
647
00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:03,600
And we had we had friends down
there, we had gone done, some
648
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:06,300
presentations, and there were
some very good people down there
649
00:39:06,300 --> 00:39:09,700
that you know, we all helped
Inspire each other.
650
00:39:10,100 --> 00:39:12,700
As we get together and we talk
about these things.
651
00:39:13,100 --> 00:39:17,900
So there was a I don't know the
whole story so I don't want to
652
00:39:17,900 --> 00:39:19,700
like miss any details of someone
who knows.
653
00:39:19,700 --> 00:39:24,700
Her story is like there but I
know some of the players and
654
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:32,000
There, there was already a
bubbling influence down there
655
00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:36,200
and people saying we need to
push something, we'd organized a
656
00:39:36,207 --> 00:39:41,300
little bit, so that's where I
say the natural law Committees
657
00:39:41,300 --> 00:39:43,000
of safety and Committees of
Correspondence.
658
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,700
And that's based on the natural
law, natural as possible.
659
00:39:45,900 --> 00:39:48,000
That's why the founders gave us
the right to assemble.
660
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:51,900
They needed to know that when
government was completely bad,
661
00:39:53,100 --> 00:39:58,500
We could reassemble and we could
we could as a community go back
662
00:39:58,500 --> 00:40:04,000
and tell our local tyrants.
No, go away.
663
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:05,700
Go away.
Who's in charge, right?
664
00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:08,100
The right to assemble, is so
essential.
665
00:40:08,500 --> 00:40:12,800
And comes away before, you know,
saying we need a revolution.
666
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:15,600
Use your right to assemble
first.
667
00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:21,200
There's so much power in that
and but not just assemble for no
668
00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:23,300
reason.
I think this is where there's or
669
00:40:23,300 --> 00:40:26,000
responsible merging of
leveraging, the right to
670
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:30,300
assemble with the right
education. and then I think
671
00:40:30,300 --> 00:40:33,400
that's a lot of what my
presentation is going to write
672
00:40:33,700 --> 00:40:37,300
how we use our right to assemble
and, and it becomes
673
00:40:37,900 --> 00:40:45,500
nullification at the community
level and So I lost my train of
674
00:40:45,500 --> 00:40:46,800
thought.
I don't know if we answer the
675
00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:48,200
question.
Yeah, I think so.
676
00:40:48,500 --> 00:40:51,300
Let me ask you this because this
is something that I have felt
677
00:40:51,300 --> 00:40:55,300
now.
For probably Well, probably,
678
00:40:55,300 --> 00:40:59,700
since since covid, went into the
deep dark lockdowns, right?
679
00:40:59,900 --> 00:41:03,700
The government instituted, those
which is I feel like the
680
00:41:03,700 --> 00:41:09,000
national level is gone, right?
It's been taken and now we need
681
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:14,300
to focus more at home, right?
Local lawyer, state or county,
682
00:41:14,300 --> 00:41:16,900
or city.
You think that's a fair
683
00:41:16,908 --> 00:41:19,000
assessment.
You think we're going to have
684
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:21,500
to?
I think, for so long, we've
685
00:41:21,500 --> 00:41:23,500
looked towards Washington for
the answers.
686
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:27,900
And I'll just tell a quick
story.
687
00:41:27,900 --> 00:41:31,500
I remember I was so taken aback
by that Toria story.
688
00:41:31,500 --> 00:41:34,900
I told you earlier about when I
was in Independence, Hall it,
689
00:41:34,900 --> 00:41:38,600
spurred a move.
I move my entire family out to
690
00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:41,900
the eastern shore of Maryland,
so I could be closer to the
691
00:41:41,900 --> 00:41:43,800
history.
Did some cool things right?
692
00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:46,100
Well, retrace went to Washington
surveys.
693
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:50,100
Turn an angle off the
Mason-Dixon Line, right?
694
00:41:50,100 --> 00:41:54,800
This some really cool things.
but I remember I took my family
695
00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:59,900
to Philadelphia and we walked,
you know, Down Independence,
696
00:41:59,900 --> 00:42:02,900
Hall to the little home that
still exist.
697
00:42:02,900 --> 00:42:06,900
Were Jefferson said he left
Philadelphia to escape this
698
00:42:06,900 --> 00:42:10,100
sweltering summer to write the
the, the Declaration of
699
00:42:10,107 --> 00:42:16,200
Independence and then we went to
Washington and we walk down K
700
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:20,200
Street.
And I remember my son at, he was
701
00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:25,900
probably Probably eight.
I remember, he looked at me,
702
00:42:25,900 --> 00:42:31,800
said, I feel achy here, right?
And so I, I'm like, no, there's
703
00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:34,300
a good reason for that, right?
I mean, we're walking through
704
00:42:34,300 --> 00:42:37,100
some, some, some rough stuff
here.
705
00:42:37,100 --> 00:42:39,700
I mean, and it was a nice part
of town, but it was where all
706
00:42:39,700 --> 00:42:42,900
the special interest was?
It was where all the real stuff
707
00:42:42,900 --> 00:42:47,800
happened.
But I remember thinking even
708
00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:52,900
then, and then it's crystallized
in the last couple of years, we
709
00:42:52,900 --> 00:42:56,400
can't look to Washington anymore
for Solutions, right?
710
00:42:56,900 --> 00:43:01,700
I think everyone gets taken with
this idea of who's going to be
711
00:43:01,700 --> 00:43:05,400
president and I'm like I don't
care anymore.
712
00:43:05,500 --> 00:43:07,600
Yeah, right.
Let's let's focus on what's
713
00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:11,400
Happening Here in Utah and Utah
County.
714
00:43:11,500 --> 00:43:14,400
He was never intended to be the
most powerful, man.
715
00:43:14,900 --> 00:43:17,300
No, no, no.
Order the never intended use.
716
00:43:17,300 --> 00:43:22,500
He had very limited function,
executive of the very limited
717
00:43:22,500 --> 00:43:27,100
enumerated powers.
Yeah, it was it was set up and
718
00:43:27,100 --> 00:43:28,400
you probably know better than I
do.
719
00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:32,200
It was set up so that you didn't
care who was president, right.
720
00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:33,900
Right.
At the end of the day it
721
00:43:33,900 --> 00:43:37,300
wouldn't have impacted your life
very much, right.
722
00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:40,000
Exactly.
And I think it doesn't have to
723
00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:43,200
today still and it only does
because of a media circus,
724
00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:45,000
right?
That that goes on.
725
00:43:45,300 --> 00:43:48,800
Well, That we've seen, we've
just seated more power to
726
00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:51,400
Washington over and over and
over, right?
727
00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:54,800
So now it kind of does matter
but it matters because we can
728
00:43:54,800 --> 00:44:00,300
stick to the plan.
Well, part, I think part of that
729
00:44:00,300 --> 00:44:02,600
is because people don't
understand.
730
00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:06,900
How government works, right?
And in general, you think they
731
00:44:06,900 --> 00:44:10,400
have the power bi and can make
an announcement that says
732
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:12,600
everyone wear masks nationally.
Now we all got to do it, how
733
00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:14,800
many people would just do it?
Because they think that's the
734
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:19,400
power that he has right versus
if you know he doesn't have that
735
00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:21,600
right?
It's just a silly ridiculous
736
00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:25,500
thing he said on TV you go about
your life for a lot of it.
737
00:44:26,100 --> 00:44:31,200
I think there is a mental aspect
as much as actual, you know,
738
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:35,300
power with an enforcement.
Some some agency, right?
739
00:44:35,300 --> 00:44:39,100
A lot.
There's a lot of mental and it
740
00:44:39,100 --> 00:44:42,400
starts with the mental anyway
before you understand that some
741
00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:44,900
random agency doesn't have the
power, they say they're having.
742
00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:50,100
So so, you know, so your
question was on the local level
743
00:44:50,100 --> 00:44:53,800
and I want to talk about Samuel
Adams and is education and why?
744
00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:59,200
And why I love him.
And so yes, this the solutions
745
00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:01,800
are local weather.
We have a good government or a
746
00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:05,200
bad government, the solution Our
local, even if the New World
747
00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:10,000
Order gets fully implemented and
everyone's got a microchip and
748
00:45:10,500 --> 00:45:13,600
the worst tyranny.
You can imagine the solutions
749
00:45:13,700 --> 00:45:18,600
always start right here and your
family from the ground up, so
750
00:45:19,200 --> 00:45:22,900
like Nationals never lost.
But if your locals lost you
751
00:45:22,900 --> 00:45:25,000
can't get to your National
level, right?
752
00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:30,200
So we have a long ways to go to
fix a lot of local areas before
753
00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:31,800
you can even ask the national
question.
754
00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:33,300
So I think that's it's like the
wrong.
755
00:45:33,500 --> 00:45:39,000
It's like we fix National these.
You just we always have to think
756
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:40,800
starting local.
Absolutely.
757
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:47,300
And to start local.
You know, Samuel Adams recognize
758
00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:54,000
that the colonists needed to be
educated, not an issues, but in
759
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:57,400
the ability to reason out their
own rights in their own minds,
760
00:45:57,600 --> 00:46:02,800
so that no matter what tyranny
they faced, they can say that's
761
00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:04,300
wrong.
And that's where I know why
762
00:46:04,300 --> 00:46:07,500
that's wrong.
And and so, he saw the power,
763
00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:11,100
that's the foundation of America
was in the education of the
764
00:46:11,100 --> 00:46:13,900
general population, on the
principles of Liberty.
765
00:46:14,100 --> 00:46:18,400
In what their rights are.
And so he dedicated 20 years of
766
00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:29,300
his life before he he, you know,
There was a period of time
767
00:46:29,300 --> 00:46:32,300
dedicated 20 years of his life
to just the education of the
768
00:46:32,300 --> 00:46:34,600
colonists, I guess, two other
things too.
769
00:46:34,600 --> 00:46:38,500
But but the point was he spent
20 years educating the people so
770
00:46:38,500 --> 00:46:39,900
they can reuse it out their own
rights.
771
00:46:40,700 --> 00:46:44,000
And so there is an aspect.
We have to accept the
772
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:47,100
responsibility of educating
ourselves.
773
00:46:47,500 --> 00:46:50,400
We can't say, I love the
Constitution but you've never
774
00:46:50,700 --> 00:46:55,400
opened that pocket constitutions
picked up at some point, right?
775
00:46:55,500 --> 00:46:59,600
We can't, if if we can't Through
it and explain to our teenager,
776
00:46:59,600 --> 00:47:03,000
what this line means.
And that line means no.
777
00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:04,100
How can we say?
We love it.
778
00:47:04,100 --> 00:47:06,600
And, and the more you
understand, even the
779
00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:09,900
nitty-gritty reasoning for all
the different words in the
780
00:47:09,900 --> 00:47:14,400
Constitution, then you start to
understand really what's right?
781
00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:19,400
And what's wrong in in national
and local government so forth.
782
00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:26,000
I can give you very clear
example, 2019, a flower shop on
783
00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:33,000
State Street is is getting
harassed by the city and and
784
00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:35,300
really the supplies you could go
in any City.
785
00:47:35,700 --> 00:47:39,200
Look in the meeting minutes for
the Planning Commission and just
786
00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:41,900
see who they're harassing that
week, right?
787
00:47:41,900 --> 00:47:47,700
Which business you now have
businesses, you can go to, to,
788
00:47:47,700 --> 00:47:49,800
to relate to to hear their
story.
789
00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:53,800
These are people who need the
community to stand with them.
790
00:47:54,200 --> 00:47:55,700
They need to know what their
rights are.
791
00:47:55,700 --> 00:48:01,100
They know they're getting hose
somehow. you know, but they
792
00:48:01,200 --> 00:48:09,900
couldn't most of them couldn't
explain how and so the state
793
00:48:09,900 --> 00:48:15,000
constitution has a limitation
cause on on our legislation, on
794
00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:19,700
our legislators that says, That
you know, private property will
795
00:48:19,700 --> 00:48:23,800
means remain Supreme and a free
market will govern.
796
00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:27,300
The will be the policy of the
state of Utah.
797
00:48:27,500 --> 00:48:31,300
There's various Clauses in there
that are principle-based and
798
00:48:31,300 --> 00:48:34,400
based on those principles you
know you can start seeing things
799
00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:38,700
cities are doing and city code.
They can come onto your business
800
00:48:38,700 --> 00:48:42,400
and tell you don't have enough
trees right on your front yard,
801
00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:47,000
you know, the principle is that
you own your property.
802
00:48:47,300 --> 00:48:49,500
Unless you're harming your
neighbors, life, liberty or
803
00:48:49,500 --> 00:48:52,900
property, then you get to be
left alone.
804
00:48:53,500 --> 00:48:57,700
And and if your neighbor is not
the one complaining, you know,
805
00:48:58,400 --> 00:49:01,200
there may be some edge cases,
there may be some you know, I'm
806
00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:07,100
not a hundred percent opposed to
like CDs and general nonspecific
807
00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:11,100
zoning to a point, right?
But even then it's like
808
00:49:11,300 --> 00:49:15,700
unnecessary but I wouldn't even
tell Dad I on all right Texas,
809
00:49:15,700 --> 00:49:18,500
does it have any zoning laws?
Cause and somehow they've
810
00:49:18,500 --> 00:49:21,200
managed to survive this long and
be just fine.
811
00:49:21,500 --> 00:49:23,600
Natural law will take effect,
right?
812
00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:26,700
So, no way I'm advocating
zoning, but I'm just saying
813
00:49:28,600 --> 00:49:31,100
Well, do you know, Joseph Smith
was all about no licensing,
814
00:49:31,400 --> 00:49:34,900
right?
And, and I'd be all for no
815
00:49:34,900 --> 00:49:37,600
zoning.
I know the city of Duchesne, we
816
00:49:37,600 --> 00:49:41,500
had defending Utah members on
their city council that, you
817
00:49:41,508 --> 00:49:45,400
know, they, they made steps in
that direction to just leave
818
00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:48,800
people alone, you know, and no
regulations.
819
00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:53,200
And they had, they only had to
deal with State rules that came
820
00:49:53,200 --> 00:49:54,700
down or something along those
lines.
821
00:49:55,300 --> 00:49:58,800
So, but my point is, this is
what the cities are doing, is
822
00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:02,400
illegal.
And if you don't know why what
823
00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:05,600
they're doing is illegal, then
you don't know what to say to
824
00:50:05,600 --> 00:50:09,700
the code enforcement guy that
comes by and gives you some
825
00:50:09,700 --> 00:50:13,000
random rule that totally
violates your property rights.
826
00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:15,900
You have to understand, there's
a constitutional limitation
827
00:50:16,300 --> 00:50:21,500
given to the government of Utah
by the Constitution that extends
828
00:50:21,500 --> 00:50:24,600
to the cities.
Right.
829
00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:29,200
No, I'm makes that So let's talk
about that, right?
830
00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:36,400
Because I think education has to
be a central point in finding
831
00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:38,500
our way out of this.
Right?
832
00:50:38,500 --> 00:50:42,500
If you some of the saddest stuff
I see is when, you know, you
833
00:50:42,500 --> 00:50:46,000
remember when Jay Leno was
hosting the Tonight Show need go
834
00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:49,600
jaywalking so to speak, where he
would just talk to people asking
835
00:50:49,600 --> 00:50:54,200
questions about either history
or what's going on in modern-day
836
00:50:54,300 --> 00:50:56,100
life and they were just
clueless.
837
00:50:57,800 --> 00:51:00,400
How can we educate more people,
effectively?
838
00:51:02,900 --> 00:51:06,400
Concerning Liberty, right?
Because I think one of the
839
00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:11,600
things that we've done as a
society and we did it out of
840
00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:15,800
reverence for a while, we turn
to the founders into marble
841
00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:21,700
statues, right.
And we've taught history in such
842
00:51:21,700 --> 00:51:25,700
a way that it's either boring or
incorrect or most likely both.
843
00:51:26,500 --> 00:51:33,500
So how do we Get how do, how can
we reach people and educate them
844
00:51:34,300 --> 00:51:36,700
in a way?
That's easy to digest because
845
00:51:36,700 --> 00:51:41,200
that's often the problem, right?
I remember with my kids, I would
846
00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:43,900
explain to them the Constitution
and the Bill of Rights and the
847
00:51:43,900 --> 00:51:47,300
Declaration look at all this and
they'd be like, here we go
848
00:51:47,300 --> 00:51:51,200
again, Dad's going at it.
But when I put the founders back
849
00:51:51,200 --> 00:51:56,400
in place where they were like
Rebels, they were They worry, I
850
00:51:56,400 --> 00:51:58,400
remember I told my whole send
you don't like it when I tell
851
00:51:58,400 --> 00:52:02,100
you what to do, right?
No well neither did they when
852
00:52:02,100 --> 00:52:06,300
the king tried to do it, how do
we educate these people?
853
00:52:06,300 --> 00:52:09,900
How do we get shouldn't say
these people, all people, how do
854
00:52:09,900 --> 00:52:13,700
we get these principles into
their hands and into their heads
855
00:52:13,700 --> 00:52:18,200
where they know it?
Well certainly you're right
856
00:52:18,200 --> 00:52:27,200
about history being made boring
on purpose in schools and Public
857
00:52:27,200 --> 00:52:29,900
Schools kill a love for
learning.
858
00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:32,100
Yes home.
Anyways, right?
859
00:52:33,600 --> 00:52:37,200
I think there's something to be
said about history can be made
860
00:52:37,200 --> 00:52:41,000
alive with the right details and
with the right stories and
861
00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:45,000
relating them.
Certainly realizing the reality.
862
00:52:45,100 --> 00:52:48,900
Like when people have a real
situation, they can apply the
863
00:52:48,900 --> 00:52:50,600
storable contact.
Still my gosh.
864
00:52:50,600 --> 00:52:53,900
They they knew what they were
talking about, they fought the
865
00:52:53,900 --> 00:52:55,400
Tyrant.
Well, I've got this tyrant.
866
00:52:56,000 --> 00:53:01,400
You know, and there's a lot of
people that put out different
867
00:53:01,400 --> 00:53:04,400
content, you know, we put a lot
of content over the years,
868
00:53:04,400 --> 00:53:09,500
trying to solve this issue and
then, as we've organized
869
00:53:09,500 --> 00:53:12,000
chapters over the years with
defending Utah, and John Birch
870
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:14,000
Society has done a lot of
similar things.
871
00:53:14,400 --> 00:53:17,600
You know, the goal is the one of
the goals of the chapters has
872
00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:21,700
been to help.
Educate your neighbors, have
873
00:53:21,700 --> 00:53:25,400
Cottage meetings, invite your
neighbors over.
874
00:53:25,800 --> 00:53:29,500
And discuss in an intimate
setting you know and with with
875
00:53:29,500 --> 00:53:31,600
an exciting speaker or
presentation, you know.
876
00:53:31,600 --> 00:53:38,000
So I think having an organized
effort to Agro ecology meetings
877
00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:41,700
in communities has always been
something that I've seen
878
00:53:41,700 --> 00:53:46,700
effective over the years and and
seeing that grow JBS was very
879
00:53:46,700 --> 00:53:50,000
effective doing it.
And that's where we've seen some
880
00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:55,200
of our best successes for sure.
And I think not beating around
881
00:53:55,200 --> 00:54:01,000
the bush. when you tell stories,
you know, you know, talking
882
00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:03,500
about the Miracles of the
founding fathers and the
883
00:54:03,500 --> 00:54:07,600
Miracles of this state of Utah,
you know, these are things that
884
00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:10,900
are also being erased, mmm for
sure.
885
00:54:10,900 --> 00:54:16,000
So, and may not be a silver
bullet to that.
886
00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:20,500
I think organizing effectively,
you know, is I've always had the
887
00:54:20,500 --> 00:54:23,100
entrepreneurial mindset, you
know, how we, how can we build
888
00:54:23,100 --> 00:54:27,200
something that can effectively
serve that purpose, but the
889
00:54:27,200 --> 00:54:31,500
people involved and enthusiasm
they have The time dedicate
890
00:54:31,500 --> 00:54:36,300
having good leaders, definitely
puts that into Super charging
891
00:54:36,300 --> 00:54:39,200
them to reach people.
I think you hit on something
892
00:54:39,200 --> 00:54:44,800
super important to and that's
this idea of organizing as if
893
00:54:44,800 --> 00:54:47,700
you want to call us
conservatives or you want to
894
00:54:47,700 --> 00:54:53,800
call us Libertarians or you know
classical liberals however you
895
00:54:53,800 --> 00:54:57,500
want to put it.
We seem to stink on ice when it
896
00:54:57,500 --> 00:55:03,200
comes to trying to be, you know,
do public, you know, or
897
00:55:03,500 --> 00:55:06,400
organizing, right?
That seems to be a tool of the
898
00:55:06,400 --> 00:55:08,800
left a lot.
They got good at that a
899
00:55:08,808 --> 00:55:12,200
community organizer, and right?
And they can hire people and
900
00:55:12,200 --> 00:55:14,800
they can hire people because
there's an endless stream of
901
00:55:14,800 --> 00:55:16,400
money.
I got all the from the likes of
902
00:55:16,400 --> 00:55:19,700
sorro's.
I fed the Endowment for the Arts
903
00:55:19,700 --> 00:55:25,300
or whatever you want to say.
I often look at our side and I'm
904
00:55:25,300 --> 00:55:28,500
like, well yeah I get why did we
don't want to?
905
00:55:28,500 --> 00:55:31,400
I don't want to organize guy.
I understand why they don't
906
00:55:31,400 --> 00:55:34,500
because I don't because I work a
full-time job.
907
00:55:34,500 --> 00:55:37,800
I got kids.
I got all these things, right?
908
00:55:37,800 --> 00:55:43,100
And and so how how have you
found it best to start
909
00:55:43,100 --> 00:55:46,700
organizing on the right side of
the spare?
910
00:55:46,700 --> 00:55:51,000
That's a very good question.
And, you know, Benson talked
911
00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:56,700
about At that and and I think a
lot of his ideas came from his
912
00:55:56,700 --> 00:56:00,200
friendship with Robert Welch in
the John Birch Society so I can
913
00:56:00,400 --> 00:56:02,000
I can speak to.
This is one of the things they
914
00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:05,400
did really well which we have
aimed to duplicate at defending
915
00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:11,600
Utah and it's, you know, we
educate ourselves but we can't
916
00:56:11,600 --> 00:56:16,700
all dedicate Our Lives to
fighting tyrants everyday or
917
00:56:16,700 --> 00:56:19,800
watching out, you know, but we
have to have the mindset so that
918
00:56:19,800 --> 00:56:24,300
as we go about our regular Eyes.
We know what little things we
919
00:56:24,300 --> 00:56:28,700
can do and it becomes a regular
part of our culture, that the
920
00:56:28,700 --> 00:56:31,400
things that we do as part of
being organized.
921
00:56:33,500 --> 00:56:36,300
I know.
So JBS called it defending.
922
00:56:36,300 --> 00:56:40,200
Freedom is a marathon not a
Sprint so you just decide a
923
00:56:40,207 --> 00:56:44,400
little piece of you is dedicated
to stand like the founders did
924
00:56:45,600 --> 00:56:47,800
but just a little piece of you
doesn't have to be your whole
925
00:56:47,800 --> 00:56:51,500
life that you're giving and you
dedicate just that you know,
926
00:56:51,500 --> 00:56:53,900
whatever organization you're a
part of that monthly meeting
927
00:56:53,900 --> 00:56:57,300
that weekly meeting and you give
a little, but you kind of commit
928
00:56:57,300 --> 00:57:00,600
to just is that principle lift,
where you stand and give a
929
00:57:00,600 --> 00:57:04,800
little bit consistently.
And if your heart is in it and a
930
00:57:04,808 --> 00:57:08,300
whole Community has that
attitude, I think then you're
931
00:57:08,300 --> 00:57:11,800
going to find.
We can all live our lives and
932
00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:18,800
but have this culture that has a
strong has that strong cultural
933
00:57:18,800 --> 00:57:23,700
undertones that that Liberty
matters here and and we won't
934
00:57:23,700 --> 00:57:29,400
tolerate nonsense here, right?
As I thought about it, I've
935
00:57:29,400 --> 00:57:33,400
often thought there, I think we
need to be better at integrating
936
00:57:33,400 --> 00:57:39,800
the two things when it dawned on
me once when I was working on
937
00:57:39,800 --> 00:57:43,500
vacation of all things, I know
it sounds silly, but I had to do
938
00:57:43,500 --> 00:57:46,800
15 minutes of work, right?
And I could do it all from my
939
00:57:46,800 --> 00:57:50,900
phone.
And I thought this is probably
940
00:57:50,900 --> 00:57:53,000
how we have to do this Liberty
thing, right?
941
00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:57,600
We have to be able to make that
just another part of our day,
942
00:57:57,600 --> 00:57:59,700
right?
Right to where it's just second
943
00:57:59,700 --> 00:58:03,200
nature to what we do.
So that if you're at work and
944
00:58:03,200 --> 00:58:06,100
you encounter someone that you
got a good rapport with, you can
945
00:58:06,100 --> 00:58:10,100
have this conversation, right?
And, and I think integration
946
00:58:10,100 --> 00:58:12,800
seems to be absolutely Big T
anymore.
947
00:58:12,800 --> 00:58:16,800
I focus on and you know what?
And that's part of a part of the
948
00:58:16,808 --> 00:58:19,700
natural law.
Ow, you may have heard this term
949
00:58:19,700 --> 00:58:25,200
claim, use the bend, right?
And so whatever we you want the
950
00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:32,400
reality to be tomorrow, you need
to claim that reality today by
951
00:58:32,800 --> 00:58:42,700
declaring it.
So so So, in our everyday lives,
952
00:58:42,800 --> 00:58:47,600
as we go to our about our
business, like you said just by
953
00:58:47,900 --> 00:58:49,700
okay.
So, some very simple examples.
954
00:58:49,700 --> 00:58:52,400
You have a bumper sticker or you
have a storefront in.
955
00:58:52,500 --> 00:58:57,000
You know, you you can put
Positive messages in your
956
00:58:57,000 --> 00:59:00,700
storefront or whatever or you're
in a business meeting, and this
957
00:59:00,700 --> 00:59:02,700
would be a good one, Business
Leaders in the business
958
00:59:02,700 --> 00:59:05,400
Community, you're doing your
normal networking, you're making
959
00:59:05,400 --> 00:59:09,200
deals, you know, with your
suppliers and then someone wants
960
00:59:09,200 --> 00:59:12,900
to get a government grant and
you just throw in there, you
961
00:59:12,900 --> 00:59:14,500
know?
Well, I don't I think your
962
00:59:14,500 --> 00:59:17,700
opinion on how principle do you
think that is and maybe we
963
00:59:17,700 --> 00:59:20,500
should find another way, it'll
be better for a company because
964
00:59:20,500 --> 00:59:25,200
it's kind of wrong to, you know,
to take government money to save
965
00:59:25,200 --> 00:59:26,400
her.
Right.
966
00:59:26,400 --> 00:59:30,100
And so, so definitely
integration of the principles,
967
00:59:30,100 --> 00:59:31,800
the principles have to be in our
heads.
968
00:59:32,400 --> 00:59:35,100
And then they need to come out
in our day-to-day interactions
969
00:59:35,400 --> 00:59:42,100
but but come back that claim use
defend thing it's like However,
970
00:59:42,100 --> 00:59:46,900
you want it to be.
Let me give you an example.
971
00:59:47,600 --> 00:59:51,300
So, I'm a software engineer and
years ago.
972
00:59:52,000 --> 00:59:56,100
Many years ago, I did something.
I'm gonna be a little bit
973
00:59:56,100 --> 00:59:58,900
generic because I don't want to
be specific about sure any
974
00:59:58,900 --> 00:59:59,800
companies.
Okay.
975
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:03,900
But this was a real experience.
So I did something in the
976
01:00:03,900 --> 01:00:09,100
company that as an engineer I
knew was important, nobody.
977
01:00:09,100 --> 01:00:12,300
So there's always this business
side and Engineers you know that
978
01:00:12,300 --> 01:00:16,000
that deal in these on Right.
So I did something.
979
01:00:16,000 --> 01:00:20,000
I knew was important.
The the business didn't fully
980
01:00:20,000 --> 01:00:23,200
understand what I was doing or
why and didn't really care.
981
01:00:24,600 --> 01:00:31,500
And so, but I just did anyway
and I just kind of stood on this
982
01:00:31,500 --> 01:00:35,900
is this is how this should be.
And no one really strongly
983
01:00:35,900 --> 01:00:43,000
objected but just let it be well
over time as this piece of
984
01:00:43,000 --> 01:00:45,100
engineering was react became
reality.
985
01:00:47,100 --> 01:00:49,600
Old people go, there's turnover
in the company.
986
01:00:49,600 --> 01:00:53,800
New people come in and now, this
thing that I've established that
987
01:00:53,800 --> 01:00:58,100
I knew was important, the
newcomers they just see it.
988
01:00:58,100 --> 01:01:01,300
As that's how things have always
been, right?
989
01:01:01,400 --> 01:01:05,100
Okay, right.
So, in a way, I claimed, the
990
01:01:05,107 --> 01:01:09,500
reality of what I knew, what was
right, despite even if everyone
991
01:01:09,500 --> 01:01:13,800
else didn't understand it and no
strong objections, you know, I
992
01:01:13,808 --> 01:01:17,200
would have happily explained and
I did, you know, Myself to
993
01:01:17,200 --> 01:01:19,800
anyone who cared, but no one
felt that strongly so it just
994
01:01:19,800 --> 01:01:23,900
we've done in our communities.
We can, we can claim Liberty in
995
01:01:23,900 --> 01:01:25,600
these ways.
And again, this is a small piece
996
01:01:25,600 --> 01:01:29,000
of my presentation that I'm
going to weave in how these
997
01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:32,400
natural laws can come into play
as we organized in our
998
01:01:32,400 --> 01:01:33,700
communities.
Dude, I'm sorry.
999
01:01:33,700 --> 01:01:36,800
I got you just doing a little
bits of your presentation, okay,
1000
01:01:36,800 --> 01:01:38,400
please, I'm worried.
I'm gonna know.
1001
01:01:38,400 --> 01:01:42,700
You won't kill it because I want
to I want to share it and I'll
1002
01:01:42,700 --> 01:01:44,700
just it'll all get put together,
you know?
1003
01:01:44,700 --> 01:01:48,900
And there's no.
No, there's no spoilers.
1004
01:01:49,000 --> 01:01:50,900
Okay, right.
All right, everything we're,
1005
01:01:50,900 --> 01:01:52,000
yeah.
We're these are peas, are
1006
01:01:52,000 --> 01:01:59,100
principles their teasers.
So, so the founding fathers
1007
01:01:59,100 --> 01:02:03,900
declared a truth first, right?
They said we are free to the
1008
01:02:03,900 --> 01:02:06,500
king of England.
The moment they declared.
1009
01:02:06,500 --> 01:02:09,300
It was reality, the king of
England.
1010
01:02:11,500 --> 01:02:15,700
Didn't agree, right?
But everyone that wanted that to
1011
01:02:15,700 --> 01:02:19,700
be real agreed.
And it might have been a lot of
1012
01:02:19,700 --> 01:02:23,300
people who said, I don't know
that that's such a smart idea,
1013
01:02:23,300 --> 01:02:25,300
you know, you can kind of
Imagine sure the different
1014
01:02:25,300 --> 01:02:27,800
aspects.
It gets started with a with a
1015
01:02:27,808 --> 01:02:33,400
small group of people.
That declared the reality, they
1016
01:02:33,800 --> 01:02:36,000
declared their truth that they
wanted it to be.
1017
01:02:36,500 --> 01:02:40,400
And so then from that point
Mount that point forward, you
1018
01:02:40,400 --> 01:02:43,500
know, once you declare something
that's that's like the claim and
1019
01:02:43,500 --> 01:02:46,300
claim use defend, your claiming
your reality.
1020
01:02:47,100 --> 01:02:49,900
And so there's a whole history
of these various declarations.
1021
01:02:49,900 --> 01:02:52,700
Actually that's another that's
another presentation, right?
1022
01:02:52,800 --> 01:02:55,700
There was a whole string of
declarations that built up to
1023
01:02:55,700 --> 01:03:00,900
the Declaration of Independence.
Well, if the king had just said
1024
01:03:00,900 --> 01:03:04,100
well that sucks.
It would have been an over as
1025
01:03:04,100 --> 01:03:05,900
soon as you declare your
reality, then.
1026
01:03:07,200 --> 01:03:09,700
There's a powerful influence
that has over the mind and then
1027
01:03:09,700 --> 01:03:12,000
the longer it sits there and
germinates.
1028
01:03:12,500 --> 01:03:15,300
Nobody else has to necessarily
do anything specific.
1029
01:03:15,400 --> 01:03:18,200
But if there's a core group of
people, that are saying, this is
1030
01:03:18,200 --> 01:03:21,800
how things are this.
Is, this is how the Constitution
1031
01:03:21,800 --> 01:03:27,300
Works in our community, and so
forth, whatever it is over time,
1032
01:03:27,400 --> 01:03:31,700
everyone's start seeing this is
how it's always been. and so
1033
01:03:31,700 --> 01:03:35,700
this is a natural law, you're
using you, now claimed it,
1034
01:03:35,700 --> 01:03:41,100
you're Now using that reality
consistently And hopefully you
1035
01:03:41,100 --> 01:03:43,400
never have to defend if it's
done effectively.
1036
01:03:44,400 --> 01:03:51,000
Hmm.
Which but but that the founders
1037
01:03:51,000 --> 01:03:52,400
did.
Right?
1038
01:03:52,600 --> 01:03:56,500
We're at the point?
Yeah, I think I think we're
1039
01:03:56,500 --> 01:04:01,100
almost back to that one, right?
I really think if we want to
1040
01:04:01,100 --> 01:04:04,400
start.
Reinvigorating.
1041
01:04:04,400 --> 01:04:07,900
Our society with these, we have
to reinvigorate our homes with
1042
01:04:07,900 --> 01:04:09,100
it first.
Absolutely.
1043
01:04:09,200 --> 01:04:12,000
Our families are the first
Committee of Safety Services.
1044
01:04:12,000 --> 01:04:15,700
So so with using saying, you
know, you declare your reality.
1045
01:04:16,000 --> 01:04:18,300
I think that has to start at
home, right?
1046
01:04:18,300 --> 01:04:20,400
Absolutely.
We have this conversation with
1047
01:04:20,400 --> 01:04:24,100
our kids and I remember, I told
you, I was like, look, we're
1048
01:04:24,100 --> 01:04:30,200
going to be different, right?
My boys hated me because like,
1049
01:04:30,200 --> 01:04:33,800
when when their dads were like,
Like when their friends is dads
1050
01:04:33,800 --> 01:04:36,700
were out there and, you know,
they were like, we're going to
1051
01:04:36,700 --> 01:04:40,500
the whatever I'm like, we're
going to sit down wherever you'd
1052
01:04:40,500 --> 01:04:43,200
Washington's rules for
gentlemanly conduct indecent
1053
01:04:43,200 --> 01:04:44,900
Behavior.
Hi, right.
1054
01:04:45,000 --> 01:04:50,300
But I look now, I remember my
son when he went on his first
1055
01:04:50,300 --> 01:04:53,500
date and he did all the things
that Washington talked about
1056
01:04:53,500 --> 01:04:56,900
standing at the table, when a
woman comes to the table, right?
1057
01:04:57,400 --> 01:05:00,400
Those sorts of things.
Yeah, dates left and right.
1058
01:05:00,400 --> 01:05:04,700
But I mean, it was, it was Those
things where we're at, that had
1059
01:05:04,700 --> 01:05:07,700
to start at home, right?
And I think we're that place
1060
01:05:07,700 --> 01:05:14,200
with these, with these, these
principles of Liberty, I know,
1061
01:05:14,200 --> 01:05:17,100
certainly because I'm a huge
Washington guy out of all the
1062
01:05:17,100 --> 01:05:19,800
founders.
I find him the most remarkable,
1063
01:05:20,200 --> 01:05:24,000
and I am the least guy like
Washington, right?
1064
01:05:24,400 --> 01:05:29,700
But I almost have a whole EnV
for how he was able to conduct
1065
01:05:29,700 --> 01:05:33,400
himself and and so I find Myself
saying, where's the next
1066
01:05:33,400 --> 01:05:35,400
Washington?
And it's occurred to me, we're
1067
01:05:35,400 --> 01:05:36,900
going to have to grow up.
Yeah?
1068
01:05:37,100 --> 01:05:38,800
Right.
Whereas a groan from home.
1069
01:05:38,800 --> 01:05:43,700
First, the other thing that I've
always told my kids growing up,
1070
01:05:44,100 --> 01:05:45,800
a leader.
Is the first person to do.
1071
01:05:45,800 --> 01:05:47,600
The right thing, we all have to
be.
1072
01:05:48,100 --> 01:05:51,200
We asked all of us.
Yep, absolutely.
1073
01:05:52,100 --> 01:05:56,600
Um, do you think that as a
society in general?
1074
01:05:56,700 --> 01:06:00,200
I'm not talking about the folks
that come because this is
1075
01:06:00,200 --> 01:06:03,400
something that is frustrated me.
I'm not talking about the folks
1076
01:06:03,400 --> 01:06:08,700
that go to the meetings, right?
Go to defending Utah meetings or
1077
01:06:08,800 --> 01:06:11,700
those who are our Liberty
minded.
1078
01:06:13,300 --> 01:06:16,300
But there seems to be and I'm
looking for a glimmer of hope
1079
01:06:16,300 --> 01:06:19,900
here.
There seems to be just a general
1080
01:06:19,900 --> 01:06:25,200
sense of apathy towards this.
How do we wake people up from
1081
01:06:25,200 --> 01:06:27,400
that?
So?
1082
01:06:28,600 --> 01:06:30,900
Well, I think the first thing to
understand is that sense of
1083
01:06:30,900 --> 01:06:33,900
apathy is part of the strategy
of the enemy it is, yep.
1084
01:06:34,100 --> 01:06:36,700
Right.
And so, that gives you some
1085
01:06:36,700 --> 01:06:41,000
insight into how they work is.
Well, they want our lives to be
1086
01:06:41,100 --> 01:06:45,100
as comfortable as possible, so
that we maintain that acetate.
1087
01:06:45,600 --> 01:06:48,900
So definitely it takes creating
inspiration.
1088
01:06:49,900 --> 01:06:53,600
And you know, we can all bring
ideas to the table on that,
1089
01:06:53,900 --> 01:06:56,400
right?
I think people like to hear a
1090
01:06:56,400 --> 01:07:01,400
little bit of what's wrong and
then you got to give them an
1091
01:07:01,400 --> 01:07:06,100
understanding of how we can fix
this, how this works.
1092
01:07:06,100 --> 01:07:12,400
And that's what I hope to do
with with the solutions that I'm
1093
01:07:12,400 --> 01:07:15,900
coming out with.
So inspire people, you know,
1094
01:07:15,900 --> 01:07:19,000
inspire people with successes of
the past inspire people in
1095
01:07:19,000 --> 01:07:20,800
different ways.
There are many people with
1096
01:07:20,800 --> 01:07:25,900
artistic talents in different
ways that can create art, paints
1097
01:07:25,900 --> 01:07:30,500
or videos or whatever that
inspire people use your talents
1098
01:07:30,500 --> 01:07:34,600
to create that.
Kind of inspiration and then
1099
01:07:34,600 --> 01:07:39,300
connect it to like real
programs, real programs that can
1100
01:07:39,300 --> 01:07:44,700
get things done.
So, real quick before we move on
1101
01:07:44,700 --> 01:07:49,100
to some heavy duty Solutions
here in Utah today because I
1102
01:07:49,100 --> 01:07:52,700
want to focus on the local.
What do you think?
1103
01:07:52,700 --> 01:07:56,000
Is the biggest threat that we
face in Utah today from the
1104
01:07:56,000 --> 01:07:59,200
local governments?
Yeah, it is our local
1105
01:07:59,200 --> 01:08:02,600
government.
Quietly implementing Agenda, 21
1106
01:08:03,500 --> 01:08:07,400
having built a shadow government
behind our current system, the
1107
01:08:07,400 --> 01:08:11,900
shadow government of regional
entities, So this is the United
1108
01:08:11,900 --> 01:08:15,900
Nations model on how they've
done this all over the world
1109
01:08:16,600 --> 01:08:22,000
where they create new quasi
government corporations, that
1110
01:08:22,000 --> 01:08:25,399
act like their governments.
This is where I say they're
1111
01:08:25,399 --> 01:08:28,500
using the natural law in Reverse
to take away our freedoms.
1112
01:08:28,899 --> 01:08:33,800
They've created the illusion
that like the Utah League of
1113
01:08:33,800 --> 01:08:37,700
cities and towns has a has an
annual meeting.
1114
01:08:37,700 --> 01:08:43,300
They just had it here recently.
And they do, they create draft
1115
01:08:43,300 --> 01:08:46,700
legislation, so they're playing
like they're the government and
1116
01:08:47,500 --> 01:08:49,300
they're connected to the
National League of cities.
1117
01:08:49,300 --> 01:08:53,000
So there's this back-channel of
regional governments and then
1118
01:08:53,000 --> 01:08:56,700
our local government is
coordinated with this effort.
1119
01:08:57,000 --> 01:09:00,899
That then delivers everything
right into our own backyards
1120
01:09:01,100 --> 01:09:03,300
through City council's through
the planning commission's
1121
01:09:03,300 --> 01:09:09,399
through.
You know, so are the local Power
1122
01:09:09,399 --> 01:09:11,200
Players.
Local conspiracy.
1123
01:09:11,500 --> 01:09:15,000
The clubs that, you know, that
we tucked that you've heard
1124
01:09:15,000 --> 01:09:20,800
about in the past They're
they're influencing that these
1125
01:09:20,800 --> 01:09:25,500
United Nations ngos and various
Regional governments can govern
1126
01:09:25,500 --> 01:09:28,899
an organizing this way and then
just everything gets rubber
1127
01:09:28,899 --> 01:09:33,399
stamped by our city council's.
How much actually do our city
1128
01:09:33,399 --> 01:09:34,899
council's?
Do and all the cities not as
1129
01:09:34,899 --> 01:09:39,300
much as we'd want them to a lot
comes from these Regional
1130
01:09:39,300 --> 01:09:41,600
governments and that is the
agenda 21 model.
1131
01:09:42,700 --> 01:09:44,700
That's you need from what you
see.
1132
01:09:44,700 --> 01:09:46,800
That's the biggest thing we're
facing now.
1133
01:09:47,200 --> 01:09:50,000
I think so.
I think you know, biggest is
1134
01:09:50,000 --> 01:09:52,500
hard to measure, you know
everyone has their favorite
1135
01:09:52,500 --> 01:09:54,600
issue, you know?
And as soon as you see one
1136
01:09:54,600 --> 01:09:57,000
person Wrong by one issue, if
that feels like the biggest
1137
01:09:57,000 --> 01:10:00,400
thing for that day, but I think
overall holistically.
1138
01:10:01,100 --> 01:10:06,500
It's the fact that we've lost
our government and who we elect,
1139
01:10:06,500 --> 01:10:08,100
they're not even really running
the show.
1140
01:10:09,000 --> 01:10:12,300
And we just don't have any
influence over what's going on
1141
01:10:12,300 --> 01:10:15,900
now with, with our local
governments.
1142
01:10:16,400 --> 01:10:21,200
So you named one organization,
which was that Was a Utah League
1143
01:10:21,200 --> 01:10:23,700
of cities and towns, okay,
what's another one?
1144
01:10:23,900 --> 01:10:26,800
There's the Utah Association of
counties, there's a National
1145
01:10:26,800 --> 01:10:29,600
Association of counties.
There's the Wasatch Front
1146
01:10:29,600 --> 01:10:34,500
Regional Council.
There's a there's one up north
1147
01:10:34,500 --> 01:10:36,500
that actually they created a
regional government.
1148
01:10:36,500 --> 01:10:39,900
That spans Southern Idaho in
Northern Utah, right?
1149
01:10:39,900 --> 01:10:42,700
So with with these Regional
strategies they're actually
1150
01:10:42,700 --> 01:10:46,400
trying to erase traditional
borders and create new borders
1151
01:10:47,100 --> 01:10:55,400
and so there was a There was a
western us one the can ivory and
1152
01:10:55,600 --> 01:10:58,800
Mike Noel had a series of
legislation legislative pieces
1153
01:10:58,800 --> 01:11:01,700
over the years that built a
regional government in the
1154
01:11:01,700 --> 01:11:04,400
Western u.s.a. lands compact,
they called it.
1155
01:11:05,000 --> 01:11:09,000
And they actually they were
using that quasi-government,
1156
01:11:09,000 --> 01:11:12,800
shadow government type
structure, to take the
1157
01:11:12,800 --> 01:11:16,900
unconstitutional Bureau of Land
Management and legalize it under
1158
01:11:16,900 --> 01:11:21,000
state laws under the regional
compact, They created a dlm.
1159
01:11:21,900 --> 01:11:24,700
And so it's a lot of shady
things happens through these
1160
01:11:24,700 --> 01:11:27,800
Regional back channels.
That's nuts.
1161
01:11:27,800 --> 01:11:32,400
And see I consider myself fairly
well-informed, you're right, but
1162
01:11:32,400 --> 01:11:36,200
how over half of those?
I didn't even know existed to
1163
01:11:36,200 --> 01:11:38,800
know, they were thinking know
what they were doing.
1164
01:11:40,100 --> 01:11:44,200
I think he could probably their
scores of these Regional
1165
01:11:44,200 --> 01:11:48,300
entities and Utah.
Some seem very benign know, even
1166
01:11:48,300 --> 01:11:50,900
the unified police.
Is one of them, right?
1167
01:11:50,900 --> 01:11:53,300
Right.
And it's the same principle
1168
01:11:53,600 --> 01:11:58,200
removing local jurisdiction and
centralizing it more and then
1169
01:11:58,200 --> 01:12:01,300
and they're not accountable in
the same way that our local
1170
01:12:01,300 --> 01:12:04,000
governments are so it's
definitely important to be aware
1171
01:12:04,000 --> 01:12:07,000
of that.
I'm going to give a plug for the
1172
01:12:07,000 --> 01:12:10,100
red pill Expo.
Is it because of what stock on
1173
01:12:10,100 --> 01:12:11,500
this subject that I know will be
there.
1174
01:12:13,400 --> 01:12:16,000
In fact, is our latest article.
I defending Utah dot-org.
1175
01:12:18,200 --> 01:12:21,800
There's a guy giving a speech.
And so, the red pill Expo is an
1176
01:12:21,800 --> 01:12:27,000
event coming in November
November 11th through 13th.
1177
01:12:27,100 --> 01:12:30,200
Is that right, okay?
11th through 13th and it's a
1178
01:12:30,208 --> 01:12:33,100
national tour that travels the
country.
1179
01:12:33,100 --> 01:12:35,900
And so they're doing it in Salt
Lake City, come November.
1180
01:12:36,200 --> 01:12:40,000
So we're helping me a part of
that we're going to we're going
1181
01:12:40,000 --> 01:12:43,200
to affiliate in a sponsor and
we're going to have our own spot
1182
01:12:43,200 --> 01:12:44,500
there.
But there's a speaker.
1183
01:12:44,500 --> 01:12:46,200
There was a lot of great
speakers.
1184
01:12:47,100 --> 01:12:51,100
And this guy's in is Mark her.
He's founded the center for
1185
01:12:51,100 --> 01:12:53,700
self-governance and he's going
to talk about Regional
1186
01:12:53,700 --> 01:12:56,700
government.
And the topic of his speeches,
1187
01:12:57,300 --> 01:12:59,100
The Evil Genius, you've never
heard of.
1188
01:12:59,400 --> 01:13:02,600
And so I don't know the full
content of his speech but it's
1189
01:13:02,600 --> 01:13:05,100
on this subject.
So Regional government and
1190
01:13:05,100 --> 01:13:07,700
understanding how it relates to
Agenda 21.
1191
01:13:07,800 --> 01:13:11,600
This is the big unknown.
We can vote to our hearts
1192
01:13:11,600 --> 01:13:17,000
content.
And do we will never solve The
1193
01:13:17,000 --> 01:13:21,700
problems of tyranny if we don't
get this cancer out from behind
1194
01:13:21,700 --> 01:13:24,300
the scenes and make it
irrelevant, and we can do it
1195
01:13:24,300 --> 01:13:27,300
simply by shining the light on
it because then you go to your
1196
01:13:27,300 --> 01:13:30,300
city council and they're saying,
we're passing this new ordinance
1197
01:13:30,600 --> 01:13:33,400
and then you learn, this wasn't
even an idea that came from your
1198
01:13:33,400 --> 01:13:36,000
city where to come from.
Well, this consultant from the
1199
01:13:36,000 --> 01:13:37,700
league of cities and towns came
in town.
1200
01:13:38,300 --> 01:13:40,600
Well, who's that guy?
We didn't liked him, you know?
1201
01:13:40,600 --> 01:13:46,500
And I think that idea can start
to make it not so easy for these
1202
01:13:46,500 --> 01:13:48,200
entities.
These two just govern where they
1203
01:13:48,200 --> 01:13:51,500
have them does defending Utah,
have a list of these
1204
01:13:51,500 --> 01:13:54,700
organizations where people can
go and look and read what
1205
01:13:54,700 --> 01:13:57,100
they're about.
Yeah we have done some
1206
01:13:57,100 --> 01:14:03,300
presentations where we've shown
some big lists of them. if you
1207
01:14:03,300 --> 01:14:09,800
just look for, There's a
website.
1208
01:14:09,800 --> 01:14:14,100
I think it's transparency.
Dot Utah, dot-gov or something
1209
01:14:14,400 --> 01:14:17,300
and they show the budgets of all
the state entities.
1210
01:14:18,400 --> 01:14:20,200
I hope I got that you.
Alright, something along those
1211
01:14:20,200 --> 01:14:24,900
lines, probably Google the same
thing and and they actually have
1212
01:14:24,900 --> 01:14:28,000
a section.
You can filter by Regional and
1213
01:14:28,000 --> 01:14:29,400
they start to list a bunch of
them.
1214
01:14:32,000 --> 01:14:37,300
But I mean, just start googling
some of them and then and then
1215
01:14:37,300 --> 01:14:42,800
they'll link to the other ones.
The ones I've mentioned is a
1216
01:14:42,808 --> 01:14:45,800
great place to start, okay.
I think you tell League of
1217
01:14:45,800 --> 01:14:47,800
cities and towns.
One of the biggest ones because
1218
01:14:47,800 --> 01:14:50,900
of the way the input control
they influence over the cities
1219
01:14:51,200 --> 01:14:56,300
but that's a state level.
There's like They're all over
1220
01:14:56,300 --> 01:14:58,400
the place, right there.
Might be like Three Counties and
1221
01:14:58,400 --> 01:15:01,200
then they, they do a little
thing and and it's sold to
1222
01:15:01,200 --> 01:15:06,700
elected officials as a way to
say, hey, you're just a little
1223
01:15:06,700 --> 01:15:09,000
town over here.
You don't have a voice with the
1224
01:15:09,000 --> 01:15:11,400
state.
Let's will Lobby for you.
1225
01:15:11,407 --> 01:15:14,400
So, a lot of times, they may
only see it as like a lobbying
1226
01:15:14,400 --> 01:15:19,200
organization, and they may not
at first even consider this as
1227
01:15:19,200 --> 01:15:23,600
anything, nefarious, or that is
something that's incorrect or
1228
01:15:23,600 --> 01:15:28,200
wrong about this, but But the
thing is, you know, the cities
1229
01:15:28,200 --> 01:15:31,000
have all the power to defend the
right.
1230
01:15:31,000 --> 01:15:34,100
The individual has all the power
to stand for his rights.
1231
01:15:34,500 --> 01:15:38,100
And so the City by extension can
say, hey people in our town,
1232
01:15:38,200 --> 01:15:40,500
they have their constitutional
rights and we're not going to
1233
01:15:40,500 --> 01:15:46,100
pass rules that violate their
property rights and So I think
1234
01:15:46,100 --> 01:15:48,900
it's kind of a lie to think the
cities don't have power unless
1235
01:15:48,900 --> 01:15:51,000
you join some lobbying
organization.
1236
01:15:51,300 --> 01:15:54,400
Now, nothing wrong with getting
together with all the mayor's or
1237
01:15:54,400 --> 01:15:58,100
all the, you know, city council
members from other areas and
1238
01:15:58,400 --> 01:16:01,600
comparing notes, right?
Sure.
1239
01:16:01,700 --> 01:16:05,200
But that's a neutral idea.
You can organize and network
1240
01:16:05,200 --> 01:16:07,100
with people, nothing wrong with
that.
1241
01:16:07,300 --> 01:16:12,100
But it just comes down to when
the agenda of the United Nations
1242
01:16:12,100 --> 01:16:16,800
is being pushed back down.
Those channels I got you.
1243
01:16:17,300 --> 01:16:23,000
So like on those bills that will
be brought up at city council or
1244
01:16:23,100 --> 01:16:30,600
County Council or whatever.
Do the or is there a place where
1245
01:16:30,600 --> 01:16:34,700
people can read that bill first
and then maybe more importantly
1246
01:16:34,700 --> 01:16:36,700
than that?
Find out who the author is,
1247
01:16:36,700 --> 01:16:39,100
right.
Yeah, it's generally you just
1248
01:16:39,100 --> 01:16:41,800
have to dig, right?
They're not going to tell you,
1249
01:16:41,800 --> 01:16:45,200
we got this idea from the league
but when they run for office, a
1250
01:16:45,208 --> 01:16:48,100
lot of times they'll brag about
being, I was on the league of
1251
01:16:48,100 --> 01:16:51,800
cities and towns and I got this
on 13 million dollar grant for
1252
01:16:51,800 --> 01:16:54,400
our city.
So a lot of money funnels
1253
01:16:54,400 --> 01:16:56,000
through those organizations as
well.
1254
01:16:56,000 --> 01:16:59,400
So, this is federal money that
right and in the form of these
1255
01:16:59,400 --> 01:17:01,800
grants and it makes it look like
you're doing all this good stuff
1256
01:17:01,800 --> 01:17:04,000
for the city, see how you brag
about it.
1257
01:17:04,700 --> 01:17:08,800
But we want to make it unpopular
to brag about this thing's,
1258
01:17:08,800 --> 01:17:10,500
right?
First of all, that shouldn't be
1259
01:17:10,500 --> 01:17:12,900
something there.
They're proud of it's like take
1260
01:17:12,900 --> 01:17:18,100
your 13 million dollar, you
know, land preservation, Grant
1261
01:17:18,400 --> 01:17:21,500
and and get it out of my city,
you know, and tell me why?
1262
01:17:21,500 --> 01:17:22,800
Tell me how, what you're going
to do, too?
1263
01:17:23,000 --> 01:17:25,700
Actually, defend the rights of
the people of the city.
1264
01:17:25,700 --> 01:17:28,300
Instead, these are the kinds of
things that we should be
1265
01:17:28,300 --> 01:17:33,400
expecting and learning how to
call them out on those kinds of
1266
01:17:33,407 --> 01:17:37,800
things.
Yeah, so let me see if I can
1267
01:17:37,800 --> 01:17:41,200
summarize this a little bit
about the problem we have, and
1268
01:17:41,500 --> 01:17:46,600
it's in Utah, but I'm guessing
every other state in the country
1269
01:17:47,200 --> 01:17:51,700
has the same sort of setup.
Every country in the world, you
1270
01:17:51,700 --> 01:17:55,000
have this problem.
You have these quasi government
1271
01:17:55,000 --> 01:17:56,500
organizations.
Who is pro?
1272
01:17:56,600 --> 01:17:59,300
Who's getting funded from
leftist groups?
1273
01:17:59,900 --> 01:18:02,600
Well, this isn't so much a left
right thing.
1274
01:18:02,700 --> 01:18:08,200
No, no, this is a, this is a un
boring elitist, bureaucracy
1275
01:18:08,200 --> 01:18:10,500
thing.
Okay, when I say left, I mean,
1276
01:18:10,500 --> 01:18:18,700
anyone folks who are in favor of
bigger governance, um, certainly
1277
01:18:18,700 --> 01:18:22,300
the people who are the top,
okay, these are the globalists.
1278
01:18:22,400 --> 01:18:25,600
Okay, so, so I think this very
much steps out of the left-right
1279
01:18:25,600 --> 01:18:28,200
Paradigm, which we try to stay
out of any ways to focus on
1280
01:18:28,200 --> 01:18:31,400
principles, but you can't think
of it as a.
1281
01:18:32,600 --> 01:18:34,300
I don't don't think you can
think of it that way.
1282
01:18:34,300 --> 01:18:38,000
There are conservative
representatives in there and
1283
01:18:38,100 --> 01:18:41,200
people who might have no clue,
you know, you got elected to
1284
01:18:41,200 --> 01:18:43,200
office as a mayor.
You might not even know the
1285
01:18:43,208 --> 01:18:44,800
league of cities and towns
exists.
1286
01:18:45,100 --> 01:18:47,000
Someone comes the city manager
comes to you.
1287
01:18:47,000 --> 01:18:50,300
And says, hey, here's a Video.
Maybe they give you a log into a
1288
01:18:50,300 --> 01:18:52,300
website.
I don't know exactly how the
1289
01:18:52,308 --> 01:18:54,900
details play out, but they have
training videos of
1290
01:18:54,900 --> 01:18:59,300
congratulations.
You just got elected to being a
1291
01:18:59,300 --> 01:19:01,700
mayor, let us give you some
tips.
1292
01:19:02,000 --> 01:19:06,500
And, and one of these videos
actually made fun, they try to
1293
01:19:06,500 --> 01:19:09,400
immunize you against the people
in the city that are pushing
1294
01:19:09,400 --> 01:19:12,700
back against tyranny, right?
They call them cave.
1295
01:19:12,700 --> 01:19:15,500
People citizens against
virtually everything.
1296
01:19:15,500 --> 01:19:17,800
So they're giving you a slur to
make fun of concerns.
1297
01:19:18,000 --> 01:19:20,900
Citizens right out the gate and
then, you know, so I imagine
1298
01:19:20,900 --> 01:19:23,300
many of them that they have no
clue, maybe they are for limited
1299
01:19:23,300 --> 01:19:25,200
government, they don't care,
maybe they don't even know how
1300
01:19:25,200 --> 01:19:27,100
government works.
They just won the popularity
1301
01:19:27,100 --> 01:19:32,400
contest because they're there
buddy, you know, from you know,
1302
01:19:32,400 --> 01:19:35,000
one of these Insider clubs told
them, hey, you should run, you
1303
01:19:35,008 --> 01:19:38,500
know, like I think it's a big
mixture of people for sure.
1304
01:19:39,700 --> 01:19:43,600
And but definitely some of them
are the firm Believers in big
1305
01:19:43,600 --> 01:19:46,200
government.
But not, I wouldn't say in the,
1306
01:19:46,500 --> 01:19:50,100
the Democratic way of gosh, I
from bottom of my heart, we need
1307
01:19:50,100 --> 01:19:52,800
big government.
I think is a lot more into
1308
01:19:52,900 --> 01:19:58,600
either ignorance or just elitism
of once you start getting into
1309
01:19:58,600 --> 01:20:00,100
the real behind the scenes, like
okay?
1310
01:20:00,900 --> 01:20:04,500
So we got these
quasi-governmental organizations
1311
01:20:04,500 --> 01:20:11,900
that can effectively Institute
policy that limits our free.
1312
01:20:12,800 --> 01:20:14,000
Correct?
Okay.
1313
01:20:14,900 --> 01:20:16,500
Now I want to talk about
Solutions.
1314
01:20:16,500 --> 01:20:18,500
Yeah.
How do we fix it?
1315
01:20:18,900 --> 01:20:22,700
Okay, well, I think we've been
bouncing in and out of that now,
1316
01:20:22,700 --> 01:20:25,500
we have.
Yeah, yes, we had educate.
1317
01:20:25,500 --> 01:20:32,500
We had how to maybe start
thinking about Community
1318
01:20:32,500 --> 01:20:33,900
organization.
All right.
1319
01:20:33,900 --> 01:20:37,300
What else is there?
You know, those are the key
1320
01:20:37,300 --> 01:20:43,000
principles.
You know, we have to, we are the
1321
01:20:43,000 --> 01:20:46,200
ones that choose if we keep our
Republic, right?
1322
01:20:46,200 --> 01:20:51,000
So, so I think all I can really
do is expand on those ideas.
1323
01:20:51,100 --> 01:20:54,600
That's great, right?
Yes, we absolutely have to be
1324
01:20:54,600 --> 01:20:56,700
willing to be organized.
Evils organized.
1325
01:20:56,700 --> 01:20:59,700
Good must be organized as well.
That's one of the reasons
1326
01:20:59,700 --> 01:21:02,300
defendant Utah exists is to help
organize people.
1327
01:21:02,600 --> 01:21:09,000
So as people come sign up for
defending Utah, and come to our
1328
01:21:09,100 --> 01:21:14,300
weekly trainings, You know we
talk about these things and as
1329
01:21:14,300 --> 01:21:19,200
an outgrowth of Defending Utah,
we've created other tools to try
1330
01:21:19,200 --> 01:21:22,600
to explore organizing and
committees and that's something
1331
01:21:22,600 --> 01:21:26,000
I'll that's in my presentation
as well.
1332
01:21:27,700 --> 01:21:32,000
So it's important that we
educate ourselves first.
1333
01:21:33,300 --> 01:21:37,300
Stand in our family's first like
you said and then when we're,
1334
01:21:37,300 --> 01:21:42,100
when we are strong in our own
knowledge than organized with
1335
01:21:42,100 --> 01:21:46,000
our neighbors and and maybe
that's not a linear thing.
1336
01:21:46,100 --> 01:21:48,600
Maybe we need to organize
together, even as we're
1337
01:21:48,600 --> 01:21:53,600
learning, but there's definitely
an importance of the kind of
1338
01:21:53,600 --> 01:21:57,200
action.
You take needs to be after you
1339
01:21:57,200 --> 01:22:00,100
have the right education, right?
You can't just go to a
1340
01:22:00,100 --> 01:22:08,300
legislator.
Not knowing, you know, the very
1341
01:22:08,300 --> 01:22:11,100
basics of maybe why he's there
and what your purpose is, in
1342
01:22:11,100 --> 01:22:15,600
that meeting, right?
So let's talk about the
1343
01:22:15,600 --> 01:22:21,300
education thing again, right?
Because there's a couple of, I
1344
01:22:21,300 --> 01:22:27,300
think natural barriers that
exist to that, One is guys, like
1345
01:22:27,300 --> 01:22:32,200
yourself, are are an aberration,
they're not the norm, right guys
1346
01:22:32,200 --> 01:22:36,100
who are willing to go down that
rabbit hole and really look at
1347
01:22:36,100 --> 01:22:40,900
what's going on?
How do you get someone to do
1348
01:22:40,900 --> 01:22:44,300
that?
How do you get them to care
1349
01:22:44,300 --> 01:22:48,600
enough to want to spend the time
necessary to be educated?
1350
01:22:48,700 --> 01:22:53,500
Now, I think the purpose of
those who choose to lead and
1351
01:22:53,500 --> 01:22:57,000
spend their time, Hopefully will
be to help provide the
1352
01:22:57,000 --> 01:23:01,200
organization and then those who
don't have as much time or maybe
1353
01:23:01,200 --> 01:23:06,700
you don't know where to put
their time, you can L can help,
1354
01:23:07,800 --> 01:23:12,600
you know, provide opportunities
for those who are busy with
1355
01:23:12,600 --> 01:23:16,300
their lives, right?
So everyone has different
1356
01:23:16,300 --> 01:23:18,300
talents.
You're going to fill different
1357
01:23:18,300 --> 01:23:21,900
pieces of the puzzle right eye?
And I think that's okay.
1358
01:23:23,900 --> 01:23:29,500
I just think it grows, you know,
one person at a time and then
1359
01:23:29,500 --> 01:23:33,300
let's do it intentionally.
We've had a program at defending
1360
01:23:33,300 --> 01:23:37,700
Utah for years where we, where
we do it by intention where we
1361
01:23:37,700 --> 01:23:43,500
think about, who are 10 people
that That are half interested
1362
01:23:43,500 --> 01:23:45,600
and probably I'll share some
material with.
1363
01:23:46,200 --> 01:23:50,600
And so doing it by intention in
an organized way.
1364
01:23:50,600 --> 01:23:56,500
I think this key John birchers I
had amazing success in their
1365
01:23:56,500 --> 01:24:00,400
Heyday of core.
I of that for sure and so I
1366
01:24:00,400 --> 01:24:03,000
think we can replicate that for
sure.
1367
01:24:03,500 --> 01:24:06,800
And what does what does
organizing look like for Liberty
1368
01:24:06,800 --> 01:24:11,800
minded people because even In
this idea of organizing, its
1369
01:24:11,800 --> 01:24:16,900
kind of a left idea, right?
I mean that because because
1370
01:24:17,300 --> 01:24:19,500
Liberty mind you looking the
founders first, how they
1371
01:24:19,500 --> 01:24:22,000
organized, right?
Well nine, the Committees of
1372
01:24:22,000 --> 01:24:24,700
safety is a.
In fact the left would have
1373
01:24:24,700 --> 01:24:29,000
taken it from them and
counterfeited it the left.
1374
01:24:29,000 --> 01:24:31,600
I really don't like the
left-right terms, right?
1375
01:24:32,700 --> 01:24:35,900
So I'm picking up on the lingo
as you're saying it but the
1376
01:24:37,200 --> 01:24:39,800
Communists communism.
No, they copy.
1377
01:24:40,400 --> 01:24:47,100
The that organizing effort.
So the founders organized My
1378
01:24:47,100 --> 01:24:50,300
presentation goes into this a
lot so I'm trying to figure out
1379
01:24:50,500 --> 01:24:54,400
how to how to touch and I feel
like a lot of it is it's
1380
01:24:54,400 --> 01:25:01,600
important to get the whole
context but in in 2000 in 2020.
1381
01:25:03,100 --> 01:25:06,700
Okay, I had as a website you can
look up.
1382
01:25:06,700 --> 01:25:09,500
Even, I don't know if you can
look on the web as we begin
1383
01:25:09,500 --> 01:25:13,100
this.
Not, we took some of the
1384
01:25:13,100 --> 01:25:17,100
patterns that we saw the
founding fathers and we tried to
1385
01:25:17,100 --> 01:25:21,200
start implementing.
This idea of committees, a
1386
01:25:21,200 --> 01:25:24,800
Committees of safety, the idea
that a community Gets behind
1387
01:25:25,000 --> 01:25:28,900
somebody talking about the
flower shop and and Sandy, you
1388
01:25:28,900 --> 01:25:34,800
know, and so we got people
together and and declared this
1389
01:25:34,800 --> 01:25:39,800
group here is the the Sandy City
Committee of safety and know
1390
01:25:39,800 --> 01:25:42,700
you.
You can create some formalities
1391
01:25:42,800 --> 01:25:50,900
so that the community takes you
seriously and then This is what
1392
01:25:50,900 --> 01:25:55,800
the founders did when they
started declaring their truth of
1393
01:25:56,500 --> 01:26:00,000
declaring.
You know, the crimes of the king
1394
01:26:00,200 --> 01:26:05,200
of of publishing their own
newspapers, and the founders
1395
01:26:05,200 --> 01:26:08,500
were big on that.
Just any action, they took the
1396
01:26:08,500 --> 01:26:11,300
Committees of safety said, you
know, we need to dump the tea,
1397
01:26:11,300 --> 01:26:14,500
from the East India, Trading
Company.
1398
01:26:14,500 --> 01:26:19,200
Because because of the collusion
and the the crimes and there.
1399
01:26:19,300 --> 01:26:22,900
Including with the King and and
taking away our rights.
1400
01:26:23,300 --> 01:26:30,200
So the committee's being
educated and principled, Then
1401
01:26:30,200 --> 01:26:36,400
get behind the community.
When, when there's So it's hard
1402
01:26:36,400 --> 01:26:38,600
for me to narrow it down without
getting into, trying to avoid
1403
01:26:38,600 --> 01:26:41,000
the examples and trying to be
more principled here.
1404
01:26:41,500 --> 01:26:48,000
But the They had Committees of
Correspondence, they had
1405
01:26:48,000 --> 01:26:54,700
Committees of safety, they had
Committees of they had a few
1406
01:26:54,700 --> 01:26:56,300
other different names.
Okay?
1407
01:26:56,300 --> 01:27:00,600
So so these are like functions
of a fledgling.
1408
01:27:01,500 --> 01:27:04,600
The seeds of the new government
was in there.
1409
01:27:05,100 --> 01:27:08,900
Okay?
The proper role of government is
1410
01:27:08,900 --> 01:27:11,600
to defend your rights.
Yeah.
1411
01:27:11,800 --> 01:27:14,000
Yep.
Applique if the government is
1412
01:27:14,300 --> 01:27:17,300
stealing Rights.
But people are organizing.
1413
01:27:17,300 --> 01:27:21,100
And as a community, you're now
actually defending rights of the
1414
01:27:21,100 --> 01:27:22,400
people.
Okay.
1415
01:27:22,400 --> 01:27:25,800
You are now taking the role of
the proper role of government,
1416
01:27:26,100 --> 01:27:27,700
which is what the founders
intended.
1417
01:27:27,700 --> 01:27:29,900
When you assemble, that's what
they did.
1418
01:27:30,000 --> 01:27:32,000
They said the Kings not
defending our rights.
1419
01:27:32,100 --> 01:27:36,500
We're going to defend our rights
and so, so it's really about
1420
01:27:36,500 --> 01:27:41,100
this.
The roles of these committees at
1421
01:27:41,100 --> 01:27:44,300
first is remind the government
of what their job is.
1422
01:27:44,300 --> 01:27:47,200
If you remember em and Monday he
went to the sheriff.
1423
01:27:47,300 --> 01:27:52,400
In Harney County and said, hey,
you're violating the rights of
1424
01:27:52,400 --> 01:27:57,400
the ranchers and we're appealing
to you as a representative to
1425
01:27:57,400 --> 01:28:00,500
defend their rights.
If you don't, I'm going to bring
1426
01:28:00,500 --> 01:28:04,300
100 people for if you said 1,000
people into your county and will
1427
01:28:04,300 --> 01:28:09,200
defend them for you and not
saying Has to do that.
1428
01:28:09,400 --> 01:28:19,800
But but it's, but it's There are
ways there are ways to you start
1429
01:28:19,800 --> 01:28:23,600
with informing, like, think of
the traditional things we do
1430
01:28:23,600 --> 01:28:28,700
today is just see your
legislator asking them to do the
1431
01:28:28,700 --> 01:28:32,500
right thing instead of now,
you're now you're going number,
1432
01:28:32,500 --> 01:28:36,000
20, 20 people went to the homes
of who is violating their
1433
01:28:36,000 --> 01:28:38,000
rights, right you remember that?
Yep.
1434
01:28:38,000 --> 01:28:41,900
Okay because government was a
was not responsive.
1435
01:28:42,500 --> 01:28:47,800
So people organized together,
They politely delivered and
1436
01:28:47,800 --> 01:28:51,500
notes to what was her face?
The state entity ologist.
1437
01:28:51,500 --> 01:28:54,600
Now, Angela done, went to her
home.
1438
01:28:55,200 --> 01:29:00,000
Very politely, delivered a
letter saying, show us the
1439
01:29:00,000 --> 01:29:03,100
numbers, you know, pointing out
these different things and and
1440
01:29:03,300 --> 01:29:04,800
you're the one shutting down
businesses.
1441
01:29:04,800 --> 01:29:09,900
You're hurting us, you're the
one that's providing this data,
1442
01:29:09,900 --> 01:29:12,300
that's the excuse, for shutting
down businesses.
1443
01:29:12,800 --> 01:29:19,400
And so going to their home, You
saw her on TV the next day like
1444
01:29:19,400 --> 01:29:22,900
shaking, like no one did
anything to threaten her but now
1445
01:29:22,900 --> 01:29:26,800
it's like they're, they're
worried that gosh, they know
1446
01:29:26,800 --> 01:29:30,000
where we live, you know, and I
Governor Cox build a fence
1447
01:29:30,000 --> 01:29:33,600
around his house, you know, for
the same situation and then or
1448
01:29:33,600 --> 01:29:36,500
impasse tried to pass an
ordinance saying is against the
1449
01:29:36,500 --> 01:29:41,100
law to stand on the public
sidewalk and like they had this
1450
01:29:41,100 --> 01:29:44,600
fear because it was just the
people were organizing.
1451
01:29:45,500 --> 01:29:49,200
So the best way to explain this,
there's an article on our
1452
01:29:49,208 --> 01:29:54,200
website that really tells the
story, probably better than I am
1453
01:29:54,200 --> 01:29:58,800
telling now where we talk about
what I call termination day and
1454
01:29:58,800 --> 01:30:02,300
it tells the build-up of the
people organizing and committees
1455
01:30:02,300 --> 01:30:06,100
around the state.
So maybe I'll leave that for the
1456
01:30:06,100 --> 01:30:09,800
listeners.
Go look up our article and it
1457
01:30:09,800 --> 01:30:12,700
talks about there's the website
I was mentioning was Utah
1458
01:30:12,700 --> 01:30:17,200
committee that we us and it Was
as a state website that talks
1459
01:30:17,200 --> 01:30:23,100
about Committees of safety.
And the article goes into how
1460
01:30:23,100 --> 01:30:28,000
that was used during 2020.
So are you looking to
1461
01:30:28,000 --> 01:30:31,400
re-establish these committees
then because you named off a
1462
01:30:31,400 --> 01:30:35,000
bunch of them right there was
the Committee of Correspondence,
1463
01:30:35,000 --> 01:30:39,100
the committee of safety.
What were some of the other
1464
01:30:39,100 --> 01:30:42,900
ones?
You can use of inspection was
1465
01:30:42,900 --> 01:30:46,200
like another one, it's not so
much that.
1466
01:30:46,200 --> 01:30:48,100
Hey, I want to establish these
committees.
1467
01:30:48,600 --> 01:30:51,900
It's the people need to
understand the principle of the
1468
01:30:51,900 --> 01:30:56,000
committee's and then everyone
has to be smart enough to know
1469
01:30:56,000 --> 01:30:57,500
how to organize them on their
own.
1470
01:30:58,400 --> 01:31:00,000
I think that that's what's most
important.
1471
01:31:00,000 --> 01:31:04,900
So, a lot of the programs we
did, our just demonstrating the
1472
01:31:04,900 --> 01:31:08,700
principle and showing the
positive effects in the results,
1473
01:31:08,700 --> 01:31:11,900
of the things that we've done.
So, I'll just speak for me.
1474
01:31:11,900 --> 01:31:15,800
The idea of going out and
starting one of these committees
1475
01:31:15,800 --> 01:31:18,600
seems a bit intimidating, right?
Because there's no one to Show
1476
01:31:18,600 --> 01:31:21,800
Me The Way Forward on that.
We've got a manual.
1477
01:31:22,100 --> 01:31:24,200
You do have a manual.
That's where I was going.
1478
01:31:24,200 --> 01:31:27,900
There is something there where
someone can go and look at and
1479
01:31:27,900 --> 01:31:30,400
and cookbook that.
Yeah, it's just it's a big
1480
01:31:30,400 --> 01:31:34,000
subject so that's why I'm trying
to stay General right.
1481
01:31:34,800 --> 01:31:39,200
But but yeah, it's there.
And so the presentation.
1482
01:31:39,200 --> 01:31:42,200
You know what?
I can do that more and and it's
1483
01:31:42,200 --> 01:31:45,500
not like everybody needs to.
Again, they don't, you have to
1484
01:31:45,500 --> 01:31:50,900
dedicate your life to it.
But but you as a citizen, have a
1485
01:31:50,900 --> 01:31:54,700
right to gather with your
neighbor and go tell your city
1486
01:31:54,700 --> 01:31:58,300
council.
Hey stop littering your
1487
01:31:58,300 --> 01:32:02,000
pointless.
You know, my grass is Too Tall
1488
01:32:02,000 --> 01:32:07,000
ordinance all over our lawn and
and you have a right as a whole
1489
01:32:07,000 --> 01:32:10,000
neighborhood this you know this
whole street can can gather
1490
01:32:10,100 --> 01:32:13,100
Either you have the right to it
to peaceably assemble, and
1491
01:32:13,100 --> 01:32:16,100
petition.
For redress of grievances, you
1492
01:32:16,100 --> 01:32:18,300
don't have to go to everybody's
home, you know.
1493
01:32:18,300 --> 01:32:22,200
But but in 2020 people did
because people's businesses are
1494
01:32:22,200 --> 01:32:24,700
getting shut down and offices
are closed.
1495
01:32:24,700 --> 01:32:27,500
And how do you get redress
right?
1496
01:32:27,700 --> 01:32:31,000
It's it was a it was a natural.
I am and Bundy went to the home
1497
01:32:31,500 --> 01:32:34,500
of the police officer that
arrested that lady in the park.
1498
01:32:35,500 --> 01:32:39,200
To Sarah, Brady.
Yeah, to Simply deliver you have
1499
01:32:39,200 --> 01:32:42,800
a right to face cam.
This is a constitutional right
1500
01:32:42,800 --> 01:32:46,600
to petition for redress who's
the person that's causing your
1501
01:32:46,600 --> 01:32:49,800
grievance.
You're allowed to communicate to
1502
01:32:49,800 --> 01:32:51,800
them.
It's such a simple concept,
1503
01:32:51,800 --> 01:32:54,800
really.
But the effectiveness of going
1504
01:32:54,800 --> 01:32:57,200
to that person is personally
responsible.
1505
01:32:58,200 --> 01:33:00,600
Even when you're just being
polite, you're not, you don't
1506
01:33:00,600 --> 01:33:03,200
have to yell at them, you just
deliver them a notice and you
1507
01:33:03,200 --> 01:33:06,400
say, oh, now they look you in
the eye now they you know, the
1508
01:33:06,400 --> 01:33:10,500
and they can see you and they
know your real person in a very
1509
01:33:10,500 --> 01:33:12,600
different way.
There's a human connection,
1510
01:33:12,800 --> 01:33:16,700
they're not just hiding behind a
desk and or hiding behind five
1511
01:33:16,700 --> 01:33:21,100
layers of bureaucracy. you know,
something changes its that's why
1512
01:33:21,100 --> 01:33:23,500
the founders talked about when
government fears the people
1513
01:33:24,600 --> 01:33:28,300
Right.
So so yeah I believe the
1514
01:33:28,300 --> 01:33:33,200
solutions are in the principle
of the committee's.
1515
01:33:33,800 --> 01:33:38,200
The founders showed us the way
and this is a new deep dive for
1516
01:33:38,200 --> 01:33:44,100
a lot of people and we have a
lot of information on this to to
1517
01:33:44,100 --> 01:33:48,200
explain this and to teach this.
And and it's but it's comes
1518
01:33:48,200 --> 01:33:53,500
after a responsible merging of
being educated So that's kind of
1519
01:33:53,500 --> 01:33:57,300
the bottom line when I guess.
Let me ask you this.
1520
01:33:57,300 --> 01:34:08,300
Can you can you successfully do
these things without being on
1521
01:34:08,300 --> 01:34:18,800
God's side first?
so, My first thought is if
1522
01:34:18,800 --> 01:34:21,800
you're standing for Liberty, you
are on God's side.
1523
01:34:21,800 --> 01:34:25,800
If you're sacrificing your time,
even if a preacher is never
1524
01:34:25,800 --> 01:34:28,800
preached to you, but you and
intuitively acknowledge, people
1525
01:34:28,800 --> 01:34:32,900
have the right, you know, to not
live under tyranny and you're
1526
01:34:32,900 --> 01:34:37,200
willing to sacrifice your time
or safety for someone else.
1527
01:34:37,600 --> 01:34:42,500
If you are on God's side,
Liberty is the spirit of the
1528
01:34:42,508 --> 01:34:44,100
spirit of Liberty is the spirit
of Christ.
1529
01:34:44,700 --> 01:34:47,700
So I would say that first but so
then depends on where you want
1530
01:34:47,700 --> 01:34:52,200
to go from there.
So what I'm thinking is in and
1531
01:34:52,600 --> 01:34:55,200
look, your way more educated on
this stuff than I am, but I'm
1532
01:34:55,200 --> 01:34:58,300
thinking of George Whitefield
and it's something I thought
1533
01:34:58,300 --> 01:35:00,300
about a lot.
You know, who he is, right?
1534
01:35:00,300 --> 01:35:01,700
Remind me.
He's talking about.
1535
01:35:02,200 --> 01:35:06,300
So with the old was a preacher
from the church of England,
1536
01:35:06,300 --> 01:35:09,000
okay?
And this is before the
1537
01:35:09,000 --> 01:35:11,900
Revolution, this is about 25
years or so.
1538
01:35:11,900 --> 01:35:14,200
Before the Revolution, I may
have the timing wrong.
1539
01:35:14,800 --> 01:35:17,600
I know he was around when the
founders were young.
1540
01:35:19,100 --> 01:35:24,500
Whitfield goes and he comes up
with this crazy idea that you
1541
01:35:24,500 --> 01:35:30,200
don't need a priest.
To have to go through to have
1542
01:35:30,200 --> 01:35:34,700
access to God.
You follow that out to its
1543
01:35:34,700 --> 01:35:37,700
logical conclusion.
It gets rid of the divine right
1544
01:35:37,700 --> 01:35:40,900
of kings, right?
If you follow it out to its
1545
01:35:40,900 --> 01:35:44,800
logical conclusion, the Church
of England recognize this.
1546
01:35:44,800 --> 01:35:47,400
Well, rather than throw them in
jail or anything like that,
1547
01:35:47,400 --> 01:35:49,200
they're like shit them to the
new world.
1548
01:35:50,500 --> 01:35:53,600
You can't do any damage over
there so they ship them to the
1549
01:35:53,600 --> 01:35:58,200
new world and Franklin talks
about seen and Franklin, you
1550
01:35:58,200 --> 01:36:02,000
know, he has almost this
Rockstar Persona that he's
1551
01:36:02,000 --> 01:36:06,400
developed in the New World.
And Franklin talks about.
1552
01:36:06,500 --> 01:36:10,600
He's gonna go see Whitefield
preach, but he's determined.
1553
01:36:11,000 --> 01:36:13,300
He is not getting any money out
of Franklin.
1554
01:36:14,800 --> 01:36:16,900
Franklin said, I went and heard
him preach.
1555
01:36:16,900 --> 01:36:21,100
And by the first hour I give him
all my copper by the second
1556
01:36:21,100 --> 01:36:23,900
tower.
I given him all my silver and by
1557
01:36:23,900 --> 01:36:26,600
the end of the third hour, I
give him almost all my goal.
1558
01:36:28,600 --> 01:36:33,700
Because he's talking about this
idea that you don't need a
1559
01:36:33,700 --> 01:36:36,600
priest above you to access got,
you can go right to God
1560
01:36:36,600 --> 01:36:38,400
yourself.
You have that, right?
1561
01:36:39,100 --> 01:36:43,000
And it's out of that that he
begins to really lay the
1562
01:36:43,000 --> 01:36:49,200
foundations of the Revolution so
you can't really have Washington
1563
01:36:49,200 --> 01:36:55,200
unless you get Whitfield first.
My question is, is it still the
1564
01:36:55,200 --> 01:36:59,000
same today?
Do we have to recognize that our
1565
01:36:59,000 --> 01:37:04,600
rights first come from God or
Nature's God before we can
1566
01:37:04,600 --> 01:37:08,500
really set out to do?
What it is?
1567
01:37:08,500 --> 01:37:11,600
We need, that's definitely a
part of the education, you know,
1568
01:37:13,400 --> 01:37:15,000
right?
If Government Can Grant your
1569
01:37:15,000 --> 01:37:18,000
rights, they can take it away.
If God grants your rights
1570
01:37:18,100 --> 01:37:21,200
government, can't take away a
contract.
1571
01:37:21,200 --> 01:37:23,100
You have with God, right?
That heat.
1572
01:37:23,300 --> 01:37:26,300
Is part of your right as a
natural person.
1573
01:37:27,200 --> 01:37:32,000
Not so but what came to my mind
is you said that I did a
1574
01:37:32,000 --> 01:37:34,900
presentation on the black robe
regiment the time, don't they
1575
01:37:34,900 --> 01:37:38,300
are ya talked about the churches
and how they led the way.
1576
01:37:38,300 --> 01:37:43,700
And there was no, There would
have been no Revolution.
1577
01:37:43,700 --> 01:37:48,000
And by that, I mean the
revolution in everyone's hearts
1578
01:37:48,000 --> 01:37:53,200
and Minds without the preachers
of that day and so definitely
1579
01:37:53,200 --> 01:37:57,500
these ideas come from God.
They come from, as I said, the
1580
01:37:57,500 --> 01:37:59,500
spirit of Liberty is the spirit
of Christ.
1581
01:38:01,700 --> 01:38:06,900
If you acknowledge that
outwardly, then you have a lot
1582
01:38:06,900 --> 01:38:09,500
more.
It's a lot more powerful
1583
01:38:09,500 --> 01:38:12,300
position to stand on and too.
Confident in.
1584
01:38:14,300 --> 01:38:17,800
I welcome anybody, though.
Stands for Liberty who probably
1585
01:38:17,800 --> 01:38:22,100
feels the promptings of that
Spirit even if they haven't had
1586
01:38:22,100 --> 01:38:23,500
it, spelled out to them.
Sure.
1587
01:38:23,500 --> 01:38:25,800
What it is that they're feeling
sure, right?
1588
01:38:25,900 --> 01:38:30,100
But it, but the church is ought
to be leading the way.
1589
01:38:30,900 --> 01:38:37,600
Absolutely.
And so, I do highly recommend, I
1590
01:38:37,600 --> 01:38:40,900
gave a 3 hour presentation on
the history of the churches and
1591
01:38:40,900 --> 01:38:43,600
the kind of churches today and
how the global conspiracy Got a
1592
01:38:43,600 --> 01:38:49,300
head of trying to neutralize the
churches before all this stuff
1593
01:38:49,300 --> 01:38:53,900
happened.
And so the lead role they could
1594
01:38:53,900 --> 01:38:59,100
play would have such an impact.
If they were all standing the
1595
01:38:59,100 --> 01:39:01,700
way they did, in the founding of
our country, they were doing
1596
01:39:01,700 --> 01:39:04,000
that today.
If all the pulpits in Utah, were
1597
01:39:04,000 --> 01:39:07,800
speaking the same scriptures
that they were speaking back,
1598
01:39:07,800 --> 01:39:11,800
then, there would have been no,
nothing would have happened in
1599
01:39:11,800 --> 01:39:14,600
2020, it was Game over.
Yeah, there would have been
1600
01:39:14,600 --> 01:39:17,100
nothing.
It would have been like, oh
1601
01:39:17,200 --> 01:39:20,200
yeah, the pain demek never came
here.
1602
01:39:20,600 --> 01:39:24,200
Like all the fake pandemic never
came to Utah, why were people
1603
01:39:24,200 --> 01:39:26,900
didn't believe in it.
People said it, government
1604
01:39:26,900 --> 01:39:29,400
didn't have a right to do that
here, right?
1605
01:39:29,400 --> 01:39:34,300
Yeah, excuse me.
Part of the other reason I asked
1606
01:39:34,300 --> 01:39:43,100
that. is I feel like, If we go,
if we go down this road we're
1607
01:39:43,100 --> 01:39:47,100
not anchored the truth real
nasty things can happen and
1608
01:39:47,100 --> 01:39:48,800
history.
Bears that out right.
1609
01:39:48,900 --> 01:39:51,900
Let's look at the American
Revolution versus the French
1610
01:39:51,900 --> 01:39:55,500
Revolution.
The American Revolution, they
1611
01:39:55,500 --> 01:39:59,600
get rid of the king.
They end up going to.
1612
01:40:01,600 --> 01:40:04,400
In the 1791, they have a
constitutional convention.
1613
01:40:04,800 --> 01:40:08,600
It's, I should say, 1791, that's
when it was all ratified, but
1614
01:40:08,900 --> 01:40:12,500
the Constitutional Convention
and it gets, we're done.
1615
01:40:13,000 --> 01:40:19,800
We're done now, if you look at
the French Revolution and and
1616
01:40:20,500 --> 01:40:24,500
Thomas Paine fell hard for this
despite Washington warning him.
1617
01:40:25,700 --> 01:40:27,800
Because he said this isn't the
same thing.
1618
01:40:29,000 --> 01:40:34,200
But you go to that Revolution
and they the Crowds Are are
1619
01:40:34,200 --> 01:40:39,300
desecrating, holy places, holy
sites, and it ends with
1620
01:40:39,300 --> 01:40:44,700
Napoleon.
My fear is it was an aluminous
1621
01:40:45,100 --> 01:40:50,200
Revolution, right?
But the masses as they always
1622
01:40:50,200 --> 01:40:53,000
are in that thing are the useful
idiots, right?
1623
01:40:53,000 --> 01:40:55,800
Correct.
And so I worry now that we have
1624
01:40:55,800 --> 01:41:00,200
a nation whose not or Nation
even with in Utah.
1625
01:41:00,200 --> 01:41:06,300
Now who's not grounded enough in
those sacred principles, right?
1626
01:41:06,500 --> 01:41:12,200
Godly principles that we could
have a successful outcome and
1627
01:41:12,200 --> 01:41:15,700
that's why I think the god
aspect of this is so important
1628
01:41:15,700 --> 01:41:20,800
to me because without it, I feel
like it's a horror show waiting
1629
01:41:20,800 --> 01:41:22,300
to happen.
Does that make sense?
1630
01:41:22,400 --> 01:41:29,500
Just don't think so big.
Alright, if you any any Man can
1631
01:41:29,500 --> 01:41:33,900
lead his family, right?
Most maybe those exceptions but
1632
01:41:33,900 --> 01:41:37,800
generally, right, you're right,
Sammy start in your family and
1633
01:41:37,800 --> 01:41:42,300
you think small, you can have a
successful revolution of the
1634
01:41:42,300 --> 01:41:46,500
Mind, revolution of your culture
in a very small area.
1635
01:41:46,600 --> 01:41:51,000
It starts small, your group of
friends, your, you know, your
1636
01:41:51,600 --> 01:41:57,300
circle of influence, and you
have succeeded, if you succeeded
1637
01:41:57,300 --> 01:42:01,100
just speaking.
To those around you, you have a
1638
01:42:01,108 --> 01:42:04,700
small group, maybe just five
people in your neighborhood.
1639
01:42:04,700 --> 01:42:09,700
Maybe, you know, maybe a
community of 20 families, that's
1640
01:42:09,700 --> 01:42:11,000
us.
That's success.
1641
01:42:11,400 --> 01:42:15,200
And then you keep that going and
you perpetuate that culture.
1642
01:42:15,300 --> 01:42:20,400
It's okay if it's small but then
that's how it grows butt butt
1643
01:42:20,400 --> 01:42:23,000
lift where you stand and build
something solid Right?
1644
01:42:23,000 --> 01:42:29,100
Where You Are.
And the big problem, you know,
1645
01:42:29,100 --> 01:42:34,000
that gets solved as you have
many, small groups, creating a
1646
01:42:34,000 --> 01:42:38,600
solid foundation, and then those
grow over time, I think it
1647
01:42:38,600 --> 01:42:40,700
becomes natural over time after
that.
1648
01:42:41,000 --> 01:42:44,600
And then sure it when people, if
you've got a totally forced
1649
01:42:44,600 --> 01:42:48,800
Revolution, like all the black
lives matter riots in 2020.
1650
01:42:49,100 --> 01:42:54,300
Totally, you know, top down, you
know, right, fund it, you know,
1651
01:42:55,300 --> 01:42:59,100
none of those kids are going to
walk away from those riots and
1652
01:42:59,100 --> 01:43:02,800
start saying, here's how we
govern our community and
1653
01:43:02,800 --> 01:43:08,300
protects everyone from You know,
right whatever, right?
1654
01:43:08,300 --> 01:43:11,200
It's totally artificial.
And, and who's in charge, is
1655
01:43:11,200 --> 01:43:15,700
already been planned.
So, but but, you know, in the
1656
01:43:15,700 --> 01:43:20,600
same breath, I think it's
largely to blame on the
1657
01:43:20,600 --> 01:43:22,600
Communist leaders in those
movements.
1658
01:43:23,200 --> 01:43:26,500
Whereas, like you said, they're
mostly useful idiots that point.
1659
01:43:26,500 --> 01:43:31,000
So we can be the salt of the
earth by creating these small
1660
01:43:31,000 --> 01:43:32,800
groups.
It's the spirit of Christ, the
1661
01:43:32,808 --> 01:43:35,200
spirit of Liberty, we are the
salt of the earth.
1662
01:43:35,400 --> 01:43:41,100
We create these small patches of
Truth and understanding and it
1663
01:43:41,100 --> 01:43:45,800
just grows naturally when it's
when it's real and it's
1664
01:43:45,800 --> 01:43:48,500
intentional.
Okay, that's good.
1665
01:43:51,400 --> 01:43:56,000
What gives you hope because you
see a lot of the dark stuff that
1666
01:43:56,400 --> 01:43:59,500
is being perpetrated.
Would give you hope at night.
1667
01:44:03,000 --> 01:44:11,900
Yeah, sometimes it's hard to
feel it and She gives me hope.
1668
01:44:12,300 --> 01:44:17,500
Okay, that, you know, like I
believe in the goodness of
1669
01:44:17,500 --> 01:44:22,900
people, you know, you can look
and say the world is full of for
1670
01:44:22,900 --> 01:44:24,400
those.
On the podcast, I pointed at my
1671
01:44:24,400 --> 01:44:29,900
wife, I said, she gives me hope.
Right, but, but like, I see
1672
01:44:29,900 --> 01:44:35,900
goodness in my wife, I see
goodness in People still write
1673
01:44:35,900 --> 01:44:39,400
when, when you look at the world
through the lens of social media
1674
01:44:39,400 --> 01:44:44,000
and TV and the News, you think
you can very easily fall to look
1675
01:44:44,000 --> 01:44:46,500
how dumb everybody is.
Nobody gets it.
1676
01:44:46,800 --> 01:44:52,400
Everybody's you know, lost and
what when you still look someone
1677
01:44:52,400 --> 01:44:56,500
in the eye one-on-one and you
talk with people and you hear
1678
01:44:56,800 --> 01:45:01,300
that their life story and even
if they're just totally
1679
01:45:01,300 --> 01:45:05,800
different from you, And you see
goodness in people, I think most
1680
01:45:05,800 --> 01:45:10,900
people are capable of Liberty,
and they just need to hear it in
1681
01:45:10,900 --> 01:45:13,400
there.
They need to hear it in the way
1682
01:45:13,400 --> 01:45:15,100
that makes sense to them from
the background.
1683
01:45:15,100 --> 01:45:20,900
They come from right?
And so I do boy when I'm just
1684
01:45:20,900 --> 01:45:27,200
disappointed with people as a
whole I just have to, you know,
1685
01:45:27,200 --> 01:45:33,000
I haven't an interaction with
good friend again or, you know,
1686
01:45:33,000 --> 01:45:38,000
a new stranger.
It renews hope this the spirit
1687
01:45:38,000 --> 01:45:43,000
of Christ is The Light of
Christ, right is within us all
1688
01:45:43,000 --> 01:45:44,700
still.
I believe it's still there.
1689
01:45:45,200 --> 01:45:48,800
And I think we just have to
inspire people in this world and
1690
01:45:48,800 --> 01:45:52,000
have to get better at that.
We have to stop relying on other
1691
01:45:52,000 --> 01:45:54,200
people.
We have to be willing to live
1692
01:45:54,200 --> 01:45:56,600
free and nullify and our
personal lives.
1693
01:45:57,100 --> 01:46:00,400
We have to learn how to nullify
as a community, and create that
1694
01:46:00,400 --> 01:46:04,900
inspiration for others.
And it just takes time, it takes
1695
01:46:04,900 --> 01:46:11,200
time and persistence and You
know we fall we pick ourselves
1696
01:46:11,200 --> 01:46:17,500
up again and attitude.
Yeah, so And I guess that's what
1697
01:46:17,500 --> 01:46:19,400
I have to say.
You know, there's two things
1698
01:46:19,400 --> 01:46:22,000
that gives me hope that we're
going to find our way out of
1699
01:46:22,000 --> 01:46:30,600
this one is The story of
Washington right before they're
1700
01:46:30,600 --> 01:46:34,200
about to sign the Declaration
and have been divorced, rephrase
1701
01:46:34,200 --> 01:46:38,100
that right before they're about
to vote on the new Constitution.
1702
01:46:39,200 --> 01:46:43,500
And he said, gentlemen, we've
done the best we can essentially
1703
01:46:44,700 --> 01:46:46,500
it's now in God's hands.
Yeah.
1704
01:46:47,200 --> 01:46:50,500
And let us raise a standard to
which the wise and Noble can
1705
01:46:50,500 --> 01:46:58,000
repair and they go forward.
The other one is a it's between
1706
01:46:58,400 --> 01:47:03,100
Jefferson and Adams and Adams
laments to Jefferson the letter
1707
01:47:03,900 --> 01:47:08,000
and says we messed up, we messed
up.
1708
01:47:08,000 --> 01:47:12,900
We should put more Deuteronomy
into the constitution in
1709
01:47:12,900 --> 01:47:15,200
Jefferson writes back and says
it's okay.
1710
01:47:16,600 --> 01:47:18,400
They'll be another generation
somewhere.
1711
01:47:18,600 --> 01:47:20,900
That'll see what we were trying
to do, and they'll get it,
1712
01:47:20,900 --> 01:47:24,900
right?
And and so that's what gives me.
1713
01:47:24,900 --> 01:47:29,300
Hope that Liberty won't be lost,
right?
1714
01:47:29,300 --> 01:47:33,200
Is that somehow those men Who
were?
1715
01:47:35,300 --> 01:47:39,900
Absolute Towers.
Of men, right?
1716
01:47:40,400 --> 01:47:46,200
Had enough faith in the
succeeding Generations, that it
1717
01:47:46,200 --> 01:47:52,000
will get sorted, you'll get
fixed. yeah, I believe that, I
1718
01:47:52,000 --> 01:48:01,500
believe I believe the spirit of
Liberty is within The people of
1719
01:48:01,500 --> 01:48:07,700
the world as a whole and need to
be leaders and we just need to
1720
01:48:07,700 --> 01:48:10,600
inspire it out of people.
Fantastic.
1721
01:48:11,500 --> 01:48:15,400
Well we've been going here
almost an hour 45 what you want
1722
01:48:15,400 --> 01:48:18,500
to say in conclusion?
Well well first off is there
1723
01:48:18,500 --> 01:48:19,700
anything that you want to touch
on?
1724
01:48:19,700 --> 01:48:24,300
We didn't touch on.
Nothing.
1725
01:48:24,300 --> 01:48:28,800
Comes to my mind at this point
so I can just, you know, just
1726
01:48:28,800 --> 01:48:34,100
generally conclude I hope people
will check out the website,
1727
01:48:34,100 --> 01:48:37,600
defending Utah, dot-org.
Now, we've been working hard,
1728
01:48:37,600 --> 01:48:41,500
all year on various programs.
We'd love to have more people
1729
01:48:41,500 --> 01:48:45,400
with passion and heart and get
involved.
1730
01:48:45,700 --> 01:48:53,800
And there's a lot of opportunity
and And I would just like to
1731
01:48:53,800 --> 01:48:58,000
invite anybody to check out our
website and join up.
1732
01:48:58,200 --> 01:49:00,400
Perfect, and when's your
presentation.
1733
01:49:01,300 --> 01:49:06,700
So, the presentation I told you
I'm speaking at the Firm
1734
01:49:06,700 --> 01:49:10,000
Foundation Expo.
That's not necessarily my full
1735
01:49:10,500 --> 01:49:16,000
one that I'm talking about okay
unless I just really get lots of
1736
01:49:16,000 --> 01:49:21,000
free time and finish it up, not
my goal is having that I may
1737
01:49:21,000 --> 01:49:22,600
announce it and do it myself
this year.
1738
01:49:22,600 --> 01:49:26,300
May not be any specific place,
but I'm speaking at the Firm
1739
01:49:26,300 --> 01:49:29,000
Foundation Expo and also some of
our other members are speaking
1740
01:49:29,000 --> 01:49:33,500
there as well.
I'll be speaking up, northern
1741
01:49:33,500 --> 01:49:35,600
Utah.
The city of Of Millville.
1742
01:49:37,400 --> 01:49:41,600
And then red pill Expo will be
there.
1743
01:49:41,700 --> 01:49:49,500
So I think we have a variety of
events coming up but look
1744
01:49:49,500 --> 01:49:54,700
forward to this solutions that
I'm talking about that will be
1745
01:49:54,700 --> 01:49:58,500
this year and get on our mailing
list.
1746
01:49:59,200 --> 01:50:03,400
And you'll be invited.
You can be invited to come.
1747
01:50:03,400 --> 01:50:07,000
Listen, send me an email info at
defending Utah dot-org.
1748
01:50:07,000 --> 01:50:09,300
If you have questions, one
talked about it now in advance
1749
01:50:09,300 --> 01:50:17,400
if you're intrigued, and That's
it.
1750
01:50:17,700 --> 01:50:19,300
Awesome.
Look.
1751
01:50:19,300 --> 01:50:22,400
If you're listening to this,
it's for a reason.
1752
01:50:22,800 --> 01:50:27,000
I don't know what that reason is
but you were born in this time
1753
01:50:27,000 --> 01:50:29,900
for a reason and I think we all
have a part to play.
1754
01:50:30,900 --> 01:50:34,900
I'll never pretend to know the
mind and will of God perfectly.
1755
01:50:35,600 --> 01:50:38,800
The one thing that scripture
does teach me though, is that
1756
01:50:39,200 --> 01:50:43,900
God loves a dramatic ending.
And I think that Things are
1757
01:50:43,900 --> 01:50:47,200
going to get a little dicey
before they get better here, but
1758
01:50:47,200 --> 01:50:49,500
when they get better it'll be a
grand time.
1759
01:50:50,200 --> 01:50:53,300
So and I think we all have a
part to play in that year, I
1760
01:50:53,300 --> 01:50:57,000
think, I think all of our job is
to figure out what that is and
1761
01:50:57,000 --> 01:51:01,000
then go forward with it.
You know, talking about what
1762
01:51:01,000 --> 01:51:04,300
gives me, hope did make me,
think of them are things, The
1763
01:51:04,300 --> 01:51:08,800
more I've studied communism and
the conspiracy in their tactics,
1764
01:51:09,100 --> 01:51:12,000
the more I see that the things
that take away, hope are an
1765
01:51:12,000 --> 01:51:19,300
illusion Well, a lot more than
we realize and so I can see how
1766
01:51:19,300 --> 01:51:26,100
much power we really have.
If we start to Not play into
1767
01:51:26,100 --> 01:51:32,200
those Illusions and just claim
use defend a little bit in our
1768
01:51:32,200 --> 01:51:34,700
lives.
You know, we would see a lot
1769
01:51:34,700 --> 01:51:38,100
more success.
So I feel like nature and God
1770
01:51:39,000 --> 01:51:42,400
being one of the same is on our
side, he put the laws into place
1771
01:51:42,400 --> 01:51:47,000
or you know, he governs by those
laws and we can leverage those
1772
01:51:47,600 --> 01:51:52,000
and we can come out.
Trumpeting then awesome.
1773
01:51:52,700 --> 01:51:54,900
All right.
