Biden Is Ultimately Going After Handguns

Ever since I got the new Galaxy Z Flip 4, I've been learning all these new tricks with my dog Finn. Like how to take the best selfies at the park. I just set my phone down, put it in flex mode, and capture hands-free pics from multiple angles. Or how to capture our training sessions for his followers. I simply wave my hand to start recording video.

Good boy! Plus, the Z Flip 4 is compact and fits perfectly in my pocket. Oh, wow! Click the banner to get your Galaxy Z Flip 4. Welcome to the Todd Starnes Show, sponsored by Legacy Precious Metals.

There's never been a better time to invest in precious metals. Visit LegacyPMInvestments.com. That's LegacyPMInvestments.com. Live from the Liberty University studio in Memphis, Tennessee, It's America's favorite cuntotin' Bible-clingin' deplorable American. That's us.

That's right. I love this American ride. Todd Starnes. Oh, yeah. No, I saw the story.

I mean, everybody was talking about it, Grace. Hello, everybody. We'll get to that in just a second. Hello, everybody. Welcome to the Todd Starnes Radio Show.

We are so delighted to have you with us on this Tuesday edition of the program. Hope you had a terrific weekend. And, of course, yesterday, Memorial Day, all sorts of events all over America. And I had the opportunity to go to a suburb of Memphis, a place called Collierville, Tennessee. Any of you folks here of Collierville?

One of the prettiest town squares on the face of the planet. and the local VFW had a terrific event. It's the annual pancake breakfast, and they use this breakfast to raise money, raise funds for veterans and all sorts of programs and projects they have at the VFW Hall. And it really struck me as I went down, I visited the commander of the post, just a terrific guy, and I had a chance to meet a number of great American patriots, military veterans. And something surprised me about this.

It turns out, now normally when you hear VFW, you think of grandpa, you think of great-grandpa, but that's not today's VFW. I was very, very impressed with the number of young guys and gals who were members of the VFW. And I was talking to the commander of the post, and he said, you know, a lot of people, they get that. They normally think that the VFW halls are not meant for young guys. But in fact, most of the VFW members are coming out of the Iraq and Afghanistan war.

And so anyway, we just had a terrific time. They had hundreds of people coming out and raised a lot of money, not just for the VFW, but also for the Veterans Cemetery. And I know that many of you attended Memorial Day events all over the country. And it was truly a beautiful moment to honor the ultimate sacrifice that so many of our veterans have made so that we can be free.

So anyway, I was trying to catch up on a lot of the news over the weekend. I took a day off on Friday, which I'm going to be doing through the summertime, by the way. I don't like to take the long vacations, so I'll take a day here or there. and I try to do that in the summertime. And why is that?

No, it's not because I love Grace Baker. It's because I love you. No, I love Grace and Kyle. We always forget Kyle. He's kind of like, you know who he's kind of like, Grace Baker?

You're not going to get this culture reference, but you should. You need to learn. Kyle is sort of like, you know, on the Brady Bunch, there was Jan. She was always the one left out. Sure.

Jan, she was like the middle child, and Jan was always just sort of there, but nobody knew she was there.

So we've got to fix that. I'll take your word for it, Todd. We've got to get Kyle to where people, when they call and they say, Oh, we love Merlot. We love Grace. Have a great day, Todd.

Poor Kyle's heart breaks every time. Exactly.

So anyway, I'm way off the mark of what we're going to talk about. Booze.

So Pelosi. You know, everybody thinks Pelosi's an alcoholic because of the way she conducts herself. You know, she always looks frazzled, yet she slurs the words, her hair's askew, the clothes a bit ruffled, rumpled rather, and the running joke was, you know, it's 5 o'clock somewhere in Washington, D.C. But Pelosi allegedly is a teetotaler. She doesn't touch the booze, the hooch.

That's it. Nothing. Not even moonshine. She won't even drink a Mountain Dew. It almost scares me that she is this way sober.

But we know she's addicted to ice cream.

So you don't know what's in the ice cream.

Well, she might like the rum raisins. You know, you can get pickled eating the rum raisins. But her husband, on the other hand, he is not a teetotaler. And Paul Pelosi got busted for DUI over the weekend. And the police, and this is a big deal here.

First of all, the guy's a mega millionaire. I mean, he is loaded in more ways than one. But he is snockered in more ways than one. The guy's got a lot of money.

So anyway, California Highway Patrol, and they were the ones who made the arrest. He was charged with driving under the influence. They say he was apparently he caused. Paul Pelosi was driving a 2021 Porsche. and he hit a jeep as he was trying to cross a state route over it.

It's terrible. Nobody got hurt, which is good news. But anyway, Pelosi got busted and he was released, what, on $5,000 bail. That was like chump change for that guy. And Pelosi's not talking about it.

She's not having anything to do with it. But I got to tell you, I don't know if I should say this, but I kind of feel bad for the guy. You know what I mean? I mean, if you had to be married to Nancy Pelosi, you'd probably be hitting the wine bottle a little bit too often as well. I'm just saying.

No, I'm not excusing his behavior. I'm just saying, if you were married to Nancy Pelosi, you're like, all right, let's give the guy a pass. That's all. No, I'm not making excuses for anybody. I'm just saying that if, you know, it is what it is.

All right, we've got so much to talk about today. And I want to start out with an incident that happened over the weekend. President Biden is out there talking to the reporters right after he went to Arlington National Cemetery. And he's talking about the gun grab.

Now, folks, you're going to hear it here first.

So Biden, and we're not going to play this audio. It's just going to blow your ears out. There was like a big helicopter. But I'm going to give you the gist of what he said. President Biden said there's no reason for any of you people out there in America to own 9mm handguns.

None whatsoever. He said he sat down, talked to the doctor, and he said, hey, the doctor said, well, if you get shot in the lung with a shotgun, we should be able to dig the shell out of your lung. But if you get hit by a 9mm, well, it's going to literally blow the lung out of your body. That's what the president is relaying here. to the assembled reporters who know nothing about guns.

They wouldn't be able to tell you the difference between a Glock and a Nerf gun.

So anyway, the president then goes on to say that there's no rational basis for any of you people to own those kinds of weapons, in other words, the firepower. Keep in mind, that is the most popular caliber in handguns.

So why is all of this important? because, ladies and gentlemen, they're not coming after the AR-15s. They're coming after your handguns. That's where all of this is going.

Now, look, we have shared this information with you, and I'm going to share it again today because you need to hear the facts. First of all, you need to understand that out of all the gun-related deaths in America, and it's right around about 40,000 in the nation, 54% of those were suicides. All right?

So you're looking at roughly 20,000 or so who died as a result of being murdered.

So the bad guy had a gun, and that person got blown away.

Now, out of that number, you're talking about a minuscule number that were actually killed by an AR-15 or any other sort of rifle. an overwhelming majority of the murders committed and the suicides committed in America, an overwhelming majority were committed by a person holding a handgun. They're coming after your guns. Then you've got the, and over the weekend, again, folks, Todd, there you go again. All that hyperbole.

There's no way they're going to, no, trust me, there is. As a matter of fact, over the weekend, the Prime Minister of Canada announced, guess what? He's going to introduce a ban on handgun sales in Canada. He goes on to say, he goes on to say that not only is he going to ban, they're putting a complete freeze. You're not going to be able to sell, trade, buy.

And you better, do not be surprised if there's a knock on the door if you live up north of the Canadian border, saying you've got to hand over your weapons. We're introducing legislation to implement a national freeze on handgun ownership. What this means is that it will no longer be possible to buy, sell, transfer, or import handguns anywhere in Canada. In other words, we're capping the market for handguns. As a further part of this new legislation, we're also fighting gun smuggling and trafficking by increasing maximum criminal penalties and providing more tools for law enforcement to investigate firearm crimes.

and will require the permanent alteration of long gun magazines so they can never hold more than five rounds. These are actions that doctors, experts, and chiefs of police have been calling for for years, and we're acting on their advice. I also want to thank the advocates, many of whom are here today, for your tireless efforts. I know that for too many of you, grief and loss are at the root of the work that you do. I want to recognize that, and on behalf of all Canadians, I want to thank you for your strength.

No, look, there's Justin Trudeau. You say, Todd, we're not Canadians. We're Americans. There's no way this could happen. Ladies and gentlemen, there is a way.

There is a way, and we're going to get into this this hour of the program. One of the things that concerns me, Fox News Channel. We've talked for a long time now about how it is not the Fox News Channel I worked for. It is not the Fox News Channel that Bill O'Reilly worked for. This is a conservative and name-only news network.

And they are going to pick up and carry the water for this gotta-get-the-guns movement.

Now, Mitch McConnell has already given the okay for Senator John Cornyn of Texas to move forward with some sort of gun gun grab legislation and Fox News over the weekend went full bore you've got Judy Miller who remember she was with the New York Times before she got hired by Fox News Channel she went out there and called all of you Republicans a bunch of mass murderers cut number two if New Zealand and Australia can do it after their mass shootings Why can't we? I think it really depends on the Republicans now. They must stop being the party of egregious mass shooting and uncontrolled guns. That has to stop. It's up to them.

And we've got more audio to play. We're going to have to take a break here. But Arthel Neville, who's supposed to be a straight news anchor, literally called on the Republican Party to jump in and support gun control. What I'm trying to tell you is the establishment Republican is on board with the Democrats here on whatever kind of gun control legislation they're going to work up. Fox News Channel is going to carry their water.

And aside from conservative talk radio, that may be the only place that actually talks about these things in very rational ways, dealing with facts. And the fact of the matter is, what happened down in Texas, it could have been prevented had the police done their job. But the problem down in Texas is you had a woke police department. The police chief happened to be a supporter of Robert Francis O'Rourke, Bobby Francis, the fake Mexican.

So you're talking about liberals who were in charge of the police department and they botched it. They let those kids die. They let those kids bleed out. That is a cold, hard fact. Had they gone in there and done what they were trained to do, they might have been able to save some lives.

But beyond that, beyond that, we do not have a gun problem in America. We have a God problem. We have taken God out of our schools. We've taken God out of the government. We've taken God out of our homes.

And what happened? We've got a godless, evil society. And we're somehow shocked by that. All right, we've got to take a break here. 844-747-8868.

That's our toll-free telephone number, 844-747-8868. Got to check out the website. We've got a lot of great stories for you over at ToddStearns.com. We'll be right back, America.

Well, I don't have to tell you folks, America is facing huge challenges.

Folks, it's time to join forces with an organization that loves America, AMAC. The Association of Mature American Citizens is America's conservative 50-plus organization.

Go to amac.us slash darns and join or renew today.

Now, another big part of all of this, folks, is what these Soros-backed district attorneys have been doing.

So keep in mind, for the past couple of years, we're talking about post-Trump presidency now, you've got these Soros-funded district attorneys who are simply refusing to prosecute crimes. They are churning out these criminals. They're committing these crimes, they're shooting people, and they turn right around and they're back out on the streets. during the early days of the pandemic. And many of these major Democrat-controlled cities, you had them literally cleaning out the prisons, the jails.

So these people, if you live in New York City right now, and you go and let's say you beat somebody up with a baseball bat, they're not going to hold you. You're going to go, you're going to sign a piece of paper saying you promised to show up in court, and boom, you're back out on the street knocking somebody upside the head with a baseball bat.

so you've got to factor all of this into the equation uh let's go to the phones here 844-747-8868 we're going to start our day in north carolina charles on the line all right charles what say you hey todd happy happy tuesday and i hope you had a great memorial day weekend charles thank you i'm going to ask you to turn down your radio because you're going to get a lot of feedback. And go ahead with your point. I just did.

So, Todd, you're spot on. We have a God problem. And I was talking to a lot of people, my friends, over the weekend and over the last week. And I had an idea that I wish somebody would implement, somebody like a Ron DeSantis with a Republican-controlled state legislature. And that is, I think we need to bring God.

We need to be back into our public schools. We need to promote the Ten Commandments, prayer in schools, read devotionals. And the first thing that the left is going to say is it's a violation of separation of church and state, which is nowhere in the Constitution.

However, if you go back and look at our founding documents, in 1787, two months prior to the Continental Congress ratifying the U.S. Constitution, They also passed something called the Northwest Ordinance, which organized the territories northwest of the Ohio River, and it was authored by Thomas Jefferson. In that document, Todd, it specifically says that religion and morality, being necessary to good government and schools as well as the happiness of mankind, shall forever be encouraged. That is Article 3, Section 3 of the Northwest Ordinance.

So I think the state legislature needs to just do it. It's better to ask for forgiveness rather than permission and use that as your moral and legal justification to do it.

So what do you think of that? Yeah, Charles, I think that's a brilliant idea. And I don't even think we have to go that far. We don't have to stray from our founding documents. I think it's pretty clear what President John Adams said.

Our Constitution, our way of life, is wholly inadequate for anyone other than a moral and religious people.

So, look, I think that's a terrific idea, Charles. got to run. God bless you, Charles. Thanks for that. What say you, ladies and gentlemen, is it time to put God back into the public school?

Hey, Grace Baker. Hey, Todd Starnes. Did you have a lot of fun over the weekend? I did. I had fun.

Went to a cookout yesterday. I don't care about that. Did you go see Top Gun? No, I haven't seen the first one. Wait, what?

And it's not that I don't want to. I just haven't gotten around to it. but I think it's on Netflix, so I'm probably going to give it a watch here soon. The original Top Gun. Yeah, yeah, I've got to see the first one.

I know. Grace, what are they teaching you guys in homeschool? Not Top Gun, apparently. This is very disappointing. No, this is a movie that really defined a generation.

Oh, I know. My parents have talked about it. I mean, it's red-blooded American, god, country, toxic masculinity, all the things that trigger the left. Pretty girls. Hot babes on motorcycles, leather jackets.

Oh, yeah. I mean, it's the whole nine yards, just the whole package.

Well, I've heard the new one's really good, which surprises me, because this is typically not the case with these kinds of things. Normally with sequels, aside from The Godfather, which by the way, The Godfather sequel, Godfather 2, was widely hailed as the best of the Godfather trilogy, even though it was the sequel. Just one of the best movies of all time. But Top Gun, I think, and we've got a lot of listeners of my age. You know, this was what, back in the 80s, this was the quintessential movie of my youth.

Top Gun was? Oh, it was. I mean, there are a lot of guys that wanted to go and join the Air Force as a result of that.

Well, especially a sequel after so many years. I'm surprised it's done so well.

So, first of all, it's a great storyline. I have not seen it, only because I waited too late to get the tickets. And you don't want to pull the card, you know. But even if you pull the card, unless you bring a lawn chair in, you're not going to be able to get a seat.

So anyway, hopefully I'm going to go this week. I'm going to have to go on an off day. Get myself the big old bucket of popcorn, some milk duds, and a Baptist martini. They put the butter on for you now. Have you noticed that?

See, before the pandemic, you could go up and use the self-dispenser and put as much butter as you wanted on it. Shake it up. Layer it.

Now they put it on for you. Is that right? See, I'm not a huge butter person, but I like good, crunchy popcorn. You've got to put on the extra butter. A smidge.

Just a smidge. I like the Orville Redden Parker. That's my jam. That's pretty good. But anyway, all that to say, people are going nuts because of how well the movie has done.

I mean, this is unbelievable. Tom Cruise having his best opening weekend of his entire career. Better late than never, right? The guy never ages. No, he doesn't.

He looks the same as he did when he was in the original Top Gun. And people are freaking out. And why are they freaking out? Because this movie is about all the goodness of America. All the things the liberals hate about America are celebrated in this movie.

And it drives them nuts. Yep. The non-woke movie is doing well. That and Spider-Man a few months ago, non-woke movie, did super-duper well. Absolutely.

And again, Hollywood, and they know this, but they like to shove these other kinds of movies. You think Top Gun's going to get a nomination for the Oscar? Probably not. You think Spider-Man didn't? No.

And by the way, which I saw, it was a good movie. It's a really good movie. I mean, but again, these are the kinds of movies the left hates. Yes. They would much rather you have some sort of a, what was it?

There was one year you had a school teacher, a male school teacher, who was having a love affair with his teenage student, a boy. and that was celebrated as a great thing in the LGBT world. And the other big movie was a woman who was having relations with a guy who turned out to be a fish. Yeah, that's what I was going to say. The one but the fish.

That's what I kept thinking of. A little bestiality-ish. They thought it was so cool. Yeah, I couldn't eat tuna for a month. It was very sad.

All that to say, they love that kind of stuff. But you have a red, white, and blue man. Patriotic movie. red-blooded American man. I know what you're saying.

Who pee standing up. Then, by golly, it's... I hope there's not a scene of that. I don't want to see that.

Well, no. I mean, it's... And there's no nudity. It's just a good, wholesome film. I am curious if anybody's gone to see it.

You can't give away any of the plot lines. I don't want to know any of the spoilers. No, don't do that. We don't do that here. But give us a call if you've seen it.

844-747-8860. And I wonder if it's one of these movies where people were cheering, you know, in the audience. That happened with Independence Day. And, you know, that great speech, you know, by the original Independence Day. The sequel to that movie was a dud.

I was actually rooting for the aliens in that one. But the first one, you're like, this is our Independence Day, and the crowd went wild, and you want to go kill E.T. It was a great moment in American cinematic history. All right, welcome back to the Todd Sterns Radio Show. Let's go to the phones, 844-747-8868.

Okay, Patty WSIC wants to talk about video games. Patty, what's going on? What's on your mind? Hey, Todd. Listen, I carry.

I carry a 9mm. I live in North Carolina. Me and my daughter live on our own. And guess what? You come through that door, you're done.

Don't even call 911, okay? I'm telling you. Let them try and take our guns away. It's not going to work. You know that he's starting a civil war in this country.

Yeah, Patty, I'm not liking where this is all going, because ultimately this is, I mean, you're talking about knock on the door, hand over your guns. I mean, that's what they're talking about here. Exactly.

And first it started with the, you know, the rifles. And now they're going for the little guns. It's not going to stop. They're going to keep, they want everything. They want to take your life over.

You know what they're doing. Oh, sure. And look, don't get me wrong about the NRA, which I used to be a member. I'm not a member now. I saw how they were spending the money I was giving them, and I wasn't very happy about all that.

You know, it seems to me, Patty, and again, I think there are plenty of laws on the books already. That being said, the explanations coming from the NRA are not very reassuring. And I'm going to tell you, I had to go grocery shopping last week, and I went to the supermarket. You know what I was doing, Patty? I could barely find what I was looking for because I was making sure nobody was going to open fire.

Because the reality is you can carry. You can carry in a grocery store and more power to you. But somebody comes in with an AR-15, it doesn't matter. You're dead. That's it.

That's what they've got to do. They've got to put a good person with a gun at these schools. They have to do that. That's it. they've been putting it off, they've been putting it off, and nothing too, I'm going to tell you.

You know what, they take guns away?

Well, they might as well, when you get a DUI, do they take the car away? Who's behind the wheel? They're going to arrest the car? They arrest the boat? Patty, the same group, they're yelling and screaming, we've got to have all these, we've got to have police in the schools with the same people saying we've got to pull the police out of the schools.

So these people can't have it both ways. But you're right. And my point is this. If we're going to spend $40 billion and give that to the Ukrainians so they can arm themselves to protect them against the invaders, then we ought to be able to put armed security guards in every single one of these public schools across America so that we can stop the bad guys from coming in and hurting the kids. Thank you, Todd.

And I think we ought to have public executions, Patty. You do something like this, you're hung up. They'll string you up on the front lawn of the courthouse. That's what I say. But you know what?

We're all, you know what's running? George Soros is ruining this country. These district attorneys, they're letting the criminals out. And look, a lot of these kids are, and I have no doubt, when you look at the backstory of this monster down in Texas, this was a guy running around killing cats. There was a photograph of him holding a bag of dead cats.

That's your warning sign right there, Patty. This kid should have been locked up. Right now I in Twitter jail I can Where Elon Musk I still in Twitter jail Todd Do you want to know something Why am I These guys go online and they show us You know what? They get away with it. Where's the FBI?

Where is everybody? Patty, and to make matters worse, and by the way, you need to go over to True Social and give me a follow there. That's a fun platform. But Patty, this school district down in Texas actually had implemented the Sentinel program. It is an AI that is supposed to weed out these threatening Facebook and social media posts and clearly did not work.

Did not work. You know what?

Something's going to have to work. We're going to have to change. I don't know what's going to happen, Todd. We've got to do something. We've got to start putting good guys with guns in front of these schools or do something.

I mean, it cannot. It's going to happen. You know, I hate to say this, but this is not the end of it.

Well, you know who wished they were armed? Those were the two teachers who sacrificed their lives in those classrooms. God bless them. God bless them. God bless them.

All right, Patty. God bless you guys. All right, take care. And tell Kyle I said hi. I'll do that.

He's smiling. He's beaming cheek to cheek right now, Patty.

So thank you for that. All right, let's go to Central Arkansas. Steve on the line. Steve, what's going on? hey Todd I was listening to your deal on they're coming after the guns which I agree 100% with what you're saying but I think there's another thing going on that I don't hear anybody talking about it I think it's real and I think it needs to be looked into is the ammunition in my opinion they're doing a back door gun control on the American people disarming the American people right now because I don't know, have you tried to buy any ammunition?

I mean, the availability of it is ridiculous. Steve, I have not, but we can open that question up to our listeners around the country. Are you having a difficult time finding ammo there in Arkansas? The popular calibers. Todd, this has been going on since the fact during the Obama administration.

Oh, sure. This started during the Obama administration. and you take popular calibers like .223 and 9mm and all the guns they're talking about right now, you almost have to be at a dealership when the truck shows up to buy it because the shelves get cleaned out. And the dealers are all saying, well, this is all I get.

Somebody, I think, is bunking with that ammunition supply right now. And if they don't get their way with the gun control, that is what they're going to go after next. And it needs to be talked about in the same sentence as gun control.

Well, I know the guys over at my place of choice for guns and ammo, thegunstorememphis.com. That's thegunstorememphis.com. And I love their slogan, hashtag no victims. A well-trained and armed society is a safe society, which is one of the reasons we support them, and they're great supporters of what we do here on the radio show.

So, Steve, you might want to check those folks out, thegunstorememphis.com. Give them a call if you're looking for ammo. Steve, got to run? Appreciate the call, 844-747-8868. That's our toll-free telephone number.

Hey, Jerry, so you've got an update on this ammo issue. Yes, I do, and thanks for taking my call. I get emails weekly from all kinds of places selling all kinds of ammunition. There's not a shortage. You can get anything you want if you've got a couple bucks.

All right.

Well, and I think the issue is how much you're going to be paying for that ammo. But, again, Steve from Arkansas said he was having a bit of a challenge finding the ammo, but you're saying there's no big issue. No, there's no issue at all. And it's not even as expensive as it was a year ago. If it's come down, it'll never go to where it was.

But, yeah, you can get whatever you need readily available. And if I can, do another thing. I just want to commend you for calling out the Uvalde Police Department. I have heard more people twist themselves into knots, trying not to criticize these guys who just stood outside and did nothing, and I'm screaming at the TV. You know, two things can be true at once.

You can support the police and condemn what these cowards did, just like Parkland, all over again. And I'm just glad finally somebody, it doesn't surprise me that it's you, finally somebody's got the common sense to say two things can be true. You can support the police and still point out when the police dropped the ball. And little kids had to pay the price for that, and it's a shame. It is a shame, Jerry, and I appreciate you saying that.

Look, we love law enforcement here, and we support law enforcement. same time you know whenever something like this happens you got to call it like you see and that's all i know how to do we did the same thing with the george floyd situation uh up in minneapolis the first question i asked did the police officers violate their training and the way they're supposed to operate and if the answer is yes well they got a price to pay for that and certainly these individuals down there in in texas um what a horrible thing but the reality of it ladies and gentlemen, if you sign up to be in law enforcement, you know going in, you put your life on the line every single day you walk out of that house with your badge on. That's what you signed up for. If you don't want to do that, turn your badge in and let somebody else do it. It is a job not for everybody.

It takes a special kind of human to get out there and to put their life on the line like that. And that's why we have so many great police officers, and we are blessed in America because we have so many great police officers that are willing to do that. Jerry, appreciate the call, and thank you for listening. Grace Baker, probably the weirdest story, and I told you this was going to happen. When the Supreme Court redefined, when the Supreme Court in the name of Medea redefined what God defined, I told you that all you know what was going to break loose.

Hallelujah. And it has. This story from the New York Post, Grace Baker. A woman says that she is sexually attracted to jetliners. Is it Delta or American?

It's not Jeff Blue, I'll tell you that much. When people said Mile High Club, this wasn't what I was thinking. No, I sure hope it's not Spirit Airlines.

Well, you know what they say about Spirit. They're very unreliable. Cheap and tawdry. Sarah Rondo is the woman. She's from Germany.

And she says that she is actually sexually attracted to airplanes. Vroom, vroom, baby. And she says that her boyfriend is a Boeing 737. See, I kind of figured she would be into jumbo jets. I don't know my airplane models, but sorry.

A little commuter, a little two-seater. Is this airplanemingle.com? You can shop for your different models. She identifies as an objectum sexual, meaning she is sexually attracted to inanimate objects. This is a real thing.

She said that she tried to have relationships with men, but it just, you know. I bet that didn't go too well. Yeah, they didn't get off the ground. Never took off. Never took off.

It never had a smooth landing, let me tell you. A little turbulence in the relations.

Well, you know what they say about airplanes. I mean, they got those lovely little, what are they called, the biscotti cookies? She calls her jetliner Dickie. And I'm not making this up. D-I-C-K-I.

She says, I love everything about him, but particularly his face, wings, and engine. No comment. This is radio. They're so sexy to me. Got to keep it PG.

I just can't. But you know what? Who are we to judge this woman? If you're going to redefine marriage, this is what you get, ladies and gentlemen. All right.

We got to take a break here and book some airline tickets. This is the Todd Stearns Radio Show. We all know someone who's all work and no chill. Trust me. That used to be me.

But then I found Galaxy Z Fold 4, which allows me to do more things at once. Ah, much better.

Now I can take video calls from my phone and use it to take notes at the same time. Wait, are you at the spa? Or check my shopping list while ordering more scented candles and face masks on the foldable, expansive screen. Don't take your to-do list one line at a time. Multitask so you can relax.

Oh, yeah. Wow, a lot of you folks are weighing in over on the Facebook Live page about Maverick, the Top Gun sequel that came out. And you know what I'm really impressed by? The number of women who actually went to go see the movie this weekend. Normally, Top Gun's kind of like a guy's movie.

But a lot of you ladies went out, and you guys loved it. Elizabeth, my good friend Elizabeth Norieka, she is a news anchor with Fox 8 in Cleveland, Ohio. And she says, Todd, it was really good. and love the tie-in with the original Tom Cruise, hashtag Top Gun Maverick.

So there you go.

So Grace Baker, I mean, to your point, I guess the ladies. What are you trying to say, Todd? Why are you surprised?

Well, you know, because we've sort of been through this crazy time in America where society would have you believe that women would prefer a pajama boy snowflake as opposed to a big brawny guy who could carry you out of the floodwaters and then possibly fly a jet and kill the enemy. Listen, we want Top Gun, Maverick, and we want the Batman. All right.

You know what?

Point well taken. That's all I'm saying. I get it. I get it. So the ladies of the Todd Stearns Radio Program listening audience, you always know best.

All right.

We've got a lot going on this hour of the program, and there was an interesting story that caught my attention out of Fox News Channel, And it involves you good people in North Carolina, and we have a lot of North Carolina listeners. There is a state representative who is alerting people to a very bizarre story involving a school district that is using flashcards to teach LGBT propaganda. One of the cards actually depicted a pregnant man, and this is for preschoolers. I want to go to the Patriot Mobile Newsmaker Line. Honored to have with us a state representative, Erin Perry.

Erin, good to have you with us. Hi, Todd. Thanks for having me on today. Good to be with you. Erin, it takes a lot to surprise me, but I was stunned by what you discovered, and I want you to tell our listeners what you found.

Well, I was sent a copy of images from a stack of flashcards from a concerned constituent who alerted me to the use of these cards in a Wake County public school preschool classroom in my district. And when I saw these, I think, Todd, I was about as shocked as you were to see that one of these cards depicted what appeared to be a pregnant man. And the question that comes to mind is, why in the world would anyone think that images like this would be appropriate to be using in a classroom with preschoolers who are just learning their colors, four and five-year-olds?

So as a result of that, I immediately called the principal of the school and alerted her to what has been given to me by this concerned constituent. And I asked her three questions. I said, I asked her if she was aware of these being present in the school and used in the school. Number two, I asked her if she approved of these cards. And number three, I asked if she did not approve of this, what can be done?

and she was outstanding. She handled it completely professionally, quickly. She seemed surprised and shocked and concerned. She kind of said, you know, my school, this is happening in my school. And then she said, I'm going to go check this out.

I'm going to call my area superintendent and I'm going to get back to you with an update. And she did. 90 minutes later, she called me right back and she said, thank you, Representative Paré, for letting me know about this. If you didn't tell me about it, I never would have known. She said that she did find the cards.

She took the cards in her possession. She called again her area superintendent and engaged HR. And it turns out that these were not used with her knowledge. They were not part of any approved curriculum in the district. There was a teacher who decided to bring these into the classroom on her own and use them without the knowledge of the principal or the district or having them approved as an approved education tool.

So that's really where we are with that. And that is sort of my experience with this. But I think it really brings to light a bigger question. I think a lot of people are asking is perhaps it's time for parents to speak up and take a more active role in learning about and being interested in not just what is happening in your classroom and what your children are being taught, but how they're being taught in the classroom. And I think that that is an excellent lesson for all of us because even though the vast majority of teachers may never ever use a tool like this or bring this up in a classroom, sometimes it does happen, and I think it's good for parents to just be awake and alert about it.

What I love about this story, aside from the fact that, first of all, shocking and horrifying, it's the reaction. How did this play out? And it seems to me that everybody did the right thing here, and it started with the parent who made you aware, and then God bless this school principal who realized, how inappropriate this kind of stuff was for the classroom. That's right. I think that we had people who were serving the public doing the responsible thing.

I mean, that's my job. I represent people here in Southern Wake County, and when a constituent brings me a concern, it's my job to really take that seriously and verify that it exists and then see what can be done about it. And I really would like to commend the principal at the school. I mean, she took swift action. She was concerned about it.

She knew this wasn't the place to have these cards in her school, and she dealt with it accordingly. And I think that she really deserves a round of applause here for her actions and leadership. The concerning thing, though, Representative, is there's a website out there, Libs of TikTok, and they've been exposing a lot of this LGBT agenda in the classroom. And what's shocking is how prevalent it is in our nation's public education system. And the idea that you had someone in a classroom sharing these flashcards, I have to imagine that most moms and dads in that community would never in a million years have thought something like this would show up in their preschool classroom.

I think you're right about that, Todd. And I think that this is probably something that has caught the surprise of many onlookers, not just in North Carolina, not just in Southern White County, but now across the country, that it's time to pay attention. There are some families that might be okay with that. There are families, of course, and I've heard from a lot of them, that would absolutely not be okay with an educational resource like that being presented to their children in the classroom, especially in such an age-appropriate way to be dealing with that with preschoolers. But I think that, you know, in this instance, it wasn't an approved resource.

It wasn't signed off on by any authority in the education community. It was a teacher who made that decision to use this in her classroom. And I think that that's really where we get into a problem is, you know, how much authority do these individual teachers have to make these decisions like that and use these unapproved, age-inappropriate tools in the classroom without really the knowledge of their boss, without the knowledge of the district, and without the sign-off of anyone, even as high as the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction superintendent.

Well said, and congratulations, Erin. What a great thing you all have done there. And this is all about standing up, speaking out, taking a stand. You don't have to be mean about it. You don't have to burn anything down or go protest.

It's a matter of picking up the phone and finding out what the heck is going on, and you did that.

Well, I really appreciate that. It's about doing the right thing, and I appreciate those kind words, Todd. Thank you. All right, State Representative Erin Paray, and we'll get you back on. We're adding a lot of new stations in Winston-Salem and Greensboro and all over the state of North Carolina, so we'd love to get you back on sometime soon.

That's excellent. Congratulations. All right.

Well, thank you. State Representative Aaron Paré there in North Carolina. And this is the way it's supposed to be done, folks. And good on the people of that grade school, moms and dads. You've got to pay attention.

I mean, a lot of these teachers are sneaky. They know what they're doing. They're trying to indoctrinate your kids. And we've got to put a stop to that. By the way, Sebastian Gorka sent me something.

This is a brilliant thought on this issue of guns in America. I'm going to go down this list here, and I just want you to hear the numbers. This is the number of people killed in school gun violence cases. Virginia Tech, 33. Sandy Hook, 28.

Robb Elementary School in Texas, 22. University of Texas Tower, 18. Parkland, 17. Columbine, 15.

Now, this is the number killed by communist violence after they confiscated the guns. And this is the number I want you to pay attention to. In China, 65 million. In Russia, 25 million. In Cambodia, 2 million.

North Korea, 2 million. Ethiopia, 1.7 million. Afghanistan, 1.5 million. Eastern Bloc European countries, 1 million. Those are the numbers of people killed after the government comes in and confiscates the weapons.

And now you understand it's very simple, ladies and gentlemen. We can never, ever give up our Second Amendment rights. Period. We just can't do it. All right, we've got to take a break here.

844-747-8868. Toll-free telephone number. That's 844-747-8868. You say, by the way, you say, Todd, what if I see something weird happening in our schools? If they're teaching some sort of LGBT stuff or anti-capitalism stuff, what do we do?

you pick up the phone and you call grace that's what you do because we're going to be on those stories we got your back america that's what we do on this radio program and we're so excited to be able to stand up for the good people there in wake county in north carolina we'll be right back we all know someone who's all work and no chill trust me that used to be me but then i found galaxy z fold 4 which allows me to do more things at once ah much better now i can take video calls for my phone and use it to take notes at the same time.

What do you think they need to do to that teacher? They need to take her teaching certificate. She's not got any business in the classroom, in my opinion.

No, I'm with you on this, Wayne. I think the punishment should be severe. As soon as it happens, you're fired, your license revoked. I'm driving up the road when I hear this, and I about had a wreck. Oh, don't do that.

I can't stand it. Of what is happening in our country. It's ridiculous. Wayne, it is. And, you know, I think about you often because there you are.

You built this incredible business, and you're raising your daughters and granddaughters to, I mean, they're in the business doing this incredible work and feeding Lord knows how many people. You know, we've got to get back to the basics of family and understanding right from wrong in this country. Absolutely. And keeping our guns. Amen to that.

Amen to that. All right.

Wayne, next time I'm in Georgia, I'll have some ribs. You come by and see us. I'll do it. All right, Wayne. Good hearing from you, and what a great lady, and what an incredible story of Wayne and her daughter, Ray, and then the granddaughter.

They all work at this family-owned barbecue joint, Smokehouse Barbecue, in Gainesville, Georgia, a very popular place there in the North Georgia mountains. All right, time now for some gay news. YMCA, the Gay National Anthem. Did you ever hear that? They call it the Gay National Anthem.

But YMCA gets people up and it gets them moving. It's fun to stay at the YMCA. All right, this just in. President Biden, mere moments ago, releasing the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and Intersex Pride Month proclamation. No, that's exactly what they call it.

It's a fabulous proclamation. Fabulous. And listen, Todd, this segment's all about, you know, inclusiveness. And we've got Pride Month coming up, so we've got to make sure we include everybody, including the plane lady who's attracted to planes. That's right.

I mean, and not to mention, I mean, somebody out there may be attracted to the Greyhound bus. Who knows? I don't know. But no, it's a good... You've got lots of storage back there.

It's a good... Big caboose. In the undercarriage. That's where you put the luggage.

So, thank you, Grace. No, no, no. We don't mock. We celebrate. It's diversity.

We're proud.

So President Biden, loud and proud, President Biden announcing the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and Intersex Pride Month proclamation. We're going to put this up on the website.

Meanwhile, while all that's going on, there is a lot of concern, Grace Baker, about the Pride parade. You know, this is what, Gay Pride Month, right? Or is it year?

Okay, I don't know. Year round, but for us it's a month. Or an eternity. It's also my birthday month.

Well, that's something to be proud of. Yeah.

So anyway, World Health Organization, you know, we need to, they say it's okay to go to the Pride Parades.

Now you say, why would they be concerned about that?

Well, we have an update for you on the monkeypox epidemic.

Now, according to, did you hear something strange, Grace? It sounded like there was a critter. I don't know what that was. But anyway, we need to tell you about the latest monkeypox concerns in America. The World Health Organization says that it's safe to go to the gay pride parades.

Now, this is a big deal because they're saying that monkeypox was... I'm rich. I can't do this. That must be coming from the attic or something. I can't do this.

so anyway um but so the disease it's like every time i say monkey pox we have i don't know what that is oh anyway um the the disease has been spread in at gay raves and so uh there had been some concern about pride parades but now the world health organization coming out announcing it okay you can go and celebrate and be as flamboyant as you want to be or not be because it America and we don judge So there you go The latest on the monkeypox epidemic from the World Health Organization. We'll be right back. Jeezaloo, America. Yeah.

Good boy! Plus, the Z Flip 4 is compact and fits perfectly in my pocket. Oh, wow. Click the banner to get your Galaxy Z Flip 4. All right.

Hello, everybody. Welcome back. Good to have you with us. We're just trying to go through this latest proclamation coming from the White House. And they're announcing all sorts of new information.

But again, I want to go back in advance of Gay Pride Month, which kicks off, what, tomorrow? It's the whole month. The whole month of June is Gay Pride Month. and Biden has released a, and this is the, we're not making this up, folks. This is the actual name of the proclamation.

The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and Intersex Pride Month. Did they leave anybody out? Surely, I think they've got, what, 50 or 60 other, or maybe 70 or 80 genders. They forgot the plain lady. Oh, they did.

What was it? Objectionable? Yeah, hold on a second. Sexual. Objectum, yeah.

It's something very inappropriate. But whatever torques your engines there, folks.

So anyway, Biden is out there. This is a lengthy proclamation. But he's taking pride in the number of LGBTQIA plus people that he's put into his administration. As a matter of fact, there are no straight people in the Biden administration. They're all alphabet people.

And he goes on, though, to basically spread lies. Again, Joe Biden is – and we don't know why he does this, but he keeps doing this. But he says that he was the first to – again, I lost my place here in the homosexual, Rosie O'Donnell, Don Lemon, Anderson Cooper. Oh, here we go.

So anyway, he sorry, I was just kind of talking amongst yourselves here, folks.

So anyway, he takes credit in having all of these. You got Dr. Rachel Levine, who's the dude who wears the lady garments that's over at HHS. Then you've got oh, he's talking about Pete Buttigieg, who had to take time off to chest feed his newborn. But Buttigieg, and he says, here we go.

I am honored by the service of the first openly gay cabinet secretary. That's not true. That was Donald John Trump, who had Rick Grenell in the White House. Everybody keeps forgetting the fact that Trump was, in fact, a social liberal on a lot of issues, and he was probably the most pro-gay president we've had in the White House. And, of course, now Biden has the first openly lesbian, immigrant, black press secretary.

So they're all very excited about that. And I'm sure it's going to be all sorts of festivities as Gay Pride Week or month commences over at the White House. I wonder if they're going to serve, what, appletinis, cocktail weenies? I don't know. We'll see.

All right, 844-747-8868. That's our toll-free telephone number. That's 844-747-8868. Oh, President Biden, we've got to play this audio for you. The president announced he's standing on Arlington National Cemetery soil, and he declares that democracy is a bad thing.

Ladies and gentlemen, today we remember and we reaffirm freedom is worth the sacrifice. Democracy is not perfect. It's never been good, perfect. But it's worth fighting for. Oh, man, you can't make this stuff up.

But you know what he meant it the first time? They think that democracy is bad.

Now, look, you better believe that Biden is going to be coming after your guns.

So is Fox News Channel.

Now, look, Joe Biden, over the weekend, he went out there and he said once again, And this is a flat-out lie, but he said that the Second Amendment is not absolute, that during the Revolutionary War times you could not own a cannon. That is flat-out a lie. It is false.

Now, if you make a mistake once, okay, all right, that happens, right, we get it. Happens two times, well, that's a gaffe. But if it keeps going on and on, that is intentional disinformation. That is what we call, back home in Memphis, Tennessee, a flat-out ball-face lie. That's what that is.

But it's a big problem, a big problem with this administration, because this president is about to declare war on handguns. And Fox News Channel is going to be right there alongside the president on this, cut number one. 19 children and two teachers were murdered inside their classrooms classrooms 111 and 112 at rob elementary in uvalde texas in each incident the shooter was an 18 year old male the murder weapon in each incident a semi-automatic rifle ar-15 style firearms are we at a social change tipping point because that is what it's going to take for lawmakers to pay attention when the people speak and speak loudly?

Well, as someone who's been embedded with the U.S. military many times and has seen these weapons in action, I believe firmly that they should be no place on American streets. You should not have military assault weapons, never mind in the hands of mentally unstable people. But 18-year-olds, even Wyoming are felt, which is one of the most pro-gun states in the nation, does not permit guns to be sold to young people under 21. And one third of the states have similar laws.

So why can't we as a nation do this? I think this is the moment. Let me play some sound from former President Trump at the NRA convention in Houston, Texas, which happened four days after those babies and their teachers were killed at the school in Uvalde. Let's listen. Once they get the first step, they'll take the second step, the third, the fourth, and then you'll have a whole different look at the Second Amendment, which is, by the way, totally under siege.

But even if every decent and honest American gave up their guns, the criminals would never give up theirs. Your reaction to former President Trump's sentiment?

Well, I think that President Trump may have misjudged the mood. former President Trump, may have misjudged the mood of the nation on this one. I think the very fact that he chose to appear at the NRA assembly at this point so soon after a shooting really indicates that he doesn't really have his pulse, his hand on the pulse of the nation. People are outraged. I mean, if it was one of their children, the senators or the congressmen, would they not take a different position?

Does it have to actually hit home so look that's judy miller and arthel neville now arthel is supposed to be a straight narrow journalist she's supposed to be the fair and balanced chick over there at fox news channel but she is leading the charge now and i'm telling you and this this was the way it's been for years over at fox is that the weekend shows i mean they're to the left of cnn and i don't know if you guys have picked up on that over the past little while, past couple of years. But Fox News Channel is just, it is a slippery slope to leftism over there. And we're going to get into what Sandra Smith had to say about Mo Brooks and 2,000 Mules a little bit later on. But it's a mess.

Meanwhile, the New York Post reporting that the father of a Florida boy, 10-year-old boy, accused of wanting to shoot up his school, says that he feels uncomfortable talking about his son's arrest. What I find brilliant about this, I think the police down there in Florida did the right thing.

So the little boy, the police came out. Normally, if it's a minor, they don't release the name. They don't release the photograph. It's always a juvenile. They're always protecting the kids.

but not this go-around where they've actually come out and the sheriff's department said, all right, look, here's who did it. This is the kid. He made threats. We don't know if they're fake or not, but you know what? It doesn't matter.

He made the threats. This is his name. This is what he looks like. You need to be aware of this. And I say good for the police.

Now, I know a lot of people are attacking the police department down there. They're saying, but he's just a little boy, and boys will be boys. No, the kid is a little monster in training. And let's just hope that this puts the fear of God in this child. And the scary thing is that the parent had weapons in the house.

And then you've got this other moron who, again, in Florida, and he posted a threat online, Hey Siri, directions to the nearest school, and he had all these supposedly guns, supposed guns in this photograph.

Well, it turned out they were not. They were fakes. But it doesn't matter because the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Department said, yeah, this guy's going to jail, 18 years old, and now he's facing all sorts of charges. Here's my take on this. You threaten to school.

I don't care how old you are. Your name gets in the paper. Your photo gets in the paper. You go to jail. It doesn't matter if you're 10 years old or 20 years old or 30 years old.

And if you shoot up a school and you're lucky enough to survive, the police take you into custody. When they find you guilty, I say we hang you from the courthouse steps. That's what I say. and maybe just maybe that'll shake these kids into the reality that this is not some sort of a video game this is not some sort of a movie this is not some sort of make-believe that there are real consequences here and that's the problem we've raised a generation of kids in this country and they don't have they don't know that there are consequences because they've been raised to believe it's always somebody else's fault. If you feel uncomfortable, that's on other people.

It's not on you. And that's a problem. And it manifests itself in situations like this. And by and large, you've got moms and dads that were not raised on how to be moms and dads. And you've got to get that figured out pretty quickly, parents, or else we're going to lose the whole country.

All right, look, we've got to take a break here. 844-747-8868. That is our toll-free telephone number. That's 844-747-8868. Got to tell you about our great friends over at Patriot Mobile.

All right, did you hear this story out of San Francisco?

So we've got another Colin Kaepernick situation going down, this time in Major League Baseball. the manager of the San Francisco Giants, Gabe Kapler, says he's no longer going to come out for the national anthem. Says he doesn't feel comfortable about the direction of the country. That's what he says.

So this guy, he's a leftist. He's a loony tune. Kind of like that, what is it, Steve Kerr? Is that the coach, Golden State Warriors? What a moron.

Grace is vomiting. anyway this guy very upset over the school shooting as is everybody but he says we've got to do something about the violence in America we've got to take away everybody's guns if we don't take away everybody's guns we're not the land of the free home of the brave actually we are the home of the braves they won the World Series not the San Francisco Giants anywho this guy Kapler posting on a blog, and he says, I really do wonder if we are the land of the free and the home of the brave, so now he's just going to stay in the dugout, in the locker room, and he will not be coming out for the National Anthem.

Well, look, I mean, if he doesn't want to come out for the National Anthem, he doesn't have to come out for the National Anthem. The reality I have here is what do his bosses say?

Now, if the boss says you've got to go out there and you've got to honor America, then you've got to go out there. But if they don't care, well, you know, he can do what he wants to, I suppose. He goes on to say that he initially felt bad because he was afraid people might read it the wrong way and that they might think he was offending veterans.

Well, guess what? Yeah, you are. You are. but these people, you know, San Francisco Giants, I mean, these guys are as woke as you get, and it's a sad situation, but the reality is I don't think the average baseball player is paying any attention to this. I don't think people are going to boycott.

You think people are boycotting Disney right now? Disney's literally trying to indoctrinate your child, trying to groom your child. Disney wants your three-year-old to wear a feather boa and put on stiletto heels. That's what they want. And a lot of parents are like, but it's Disney World.

It's the happiest place on Earth, Todd.

Well, look, that is your decision to make. But there we are. You know, years ago, before San Francisco Giants went woke, I had a buddy who was actually a pitcher for the Giants. He was playing for the Braves and got traded to the Giants.

So I flew out there and watched a couple of games, spent a weekend out there. Look, San Francisco, it used to be a beautiful city, and now it's a third-world hellhole. You've got people dropping their pants and taking poops right in the middle of the street. You've got the drug dealers throwing their dirty needles into the playground. Poor little kid gets thrown off the merry-go-round, and the next thing you know, he's got a bunch of needles sticking in his arm.

It's horrible. Not to mention all the crime and the corruption. It's a mess. But anyway, it used to be a nice town. But, Grace, I noticed something about the stadium.

It's right there on the waterfront. And right around the seventh inning, I noticed, like, all of these birds. It was like a horror movie. The birds just start swarming the stadium, the baseball stadium. And then they perched themselves around the lip of the stadium.

Isn't that a Hitchcock movie? Freaked me out because that's exactly what I thought it was. And so I'm talking to my buddy. His mom was there. The baseball pitcher's mom was there and his fiance.

And I said, what's going on? They said, you watch this. You're not going to believe this. But it turns out that the birds at the end of the game know as soon as the last out is thrown, as the people get up to leave the birds swarm the stadium to get all the popcorn and the hot dogs and all the leftover food you know people like to say oh you're a bird brain is like an insult insult but those seem like pretty smart birds in this case it's pretty amazing but here's the problem and they said they said because i'm like wow this is fascinating because you're sure enough i mean here they come the problem is when the games go into extra innings and the birds don't The birds don't know anything about extra innings. They're like, it's time.

What are you talking about? They're bird brains.

Okay, now they're bird brains.

So then all of a sudden you have this chaos because they're trying to play and the birds want their hot dogs. Oh, my gosh. It's the craziest thing. Pandemonium. Yeah, it is.

There you go. Anyway, I hate San Francisco. What can I tell you? Never been. All right, hang tight.

Hour three coming up. Danielle D'Souza is going to be here to weigh in on what's happening. The movie's coming under attack. 2000 mules. It's coming under attack at Fox News Channel.

Unbelievable. We'll tell you all about it coming up next. Ever since I got the new Galaxy Z Flip 4, I've been learning all these new tricks with my dog Finn. Like how to take the best selfies at the park. I just set my phone down, put it in flex mode, and capture hands-free pics from multiple angles.

Or how to capture our training sessions for his followers. I simply wave my hand to start recording video. Good boy! Plus, the Z Flip 4 is compact and fits perfectly in my pocket. Oh, wow!

Click the banner to get your Galaxy Z Flip 4. Live from the Liberty University studio in Memphis, Tennessee, it's common sense conservative commentary from Todd Starnes. That's us, that's right, I love this American ride. And just to go on the record, there has been still no evidence or proof provided that there was any sort of fraud in that election.

Well, no, that's wrong. I don't know why you people in the media keep saying that, but that is absolutely false. That is absolutely false. You keep saying it every time, but that's absolutely false. You had 150 congressmen and senators who absolutely disagreed with you on what you just said.

So what are you calling them? What are you calling them when you say 150 Republican senators and congressmen looked at the voter fraud issue and said there was a major problem? What are you calling the Commission on Federal Election Reform a bipartisan committee with Jimmy Carter on the one hand and James Baker, Ronald Reagan, White House Chief of Staff on the other, back in 2005, who analyzed the systemic weaknesses, systemic flaws in our election system and warned us that elections are going to be stolen if we don't fix these problems and those problems were not fixed?

So I don't know who's telling you there's no evidence, but that tells me you haven't done your homework. I'm sorry, but that's the way it is. The courts and the judges that have... No, no, the courts... Wait, time out.

Don't go into that. Don't go into that. All right.

Don't go into that. I want to finish up, though, because I'm not... The courts do not have the... Wait a minute. No.

No. I'm getting in the last word on this one because you just made a false statement, okay? The courts are not the final arbiter of who wins federal election contests. Congress is. That is required by the United States Constitution.

That is required by the United States Code for congressmen and senators and the president.

So don't be surprised that courts don't usurp the power that is authorized to the United States Congress. Let me just quote the GOP commissioner in Wisconsin. In the Wall Street Journal today, printed, and I will read it verbatim, he said there is no evidence that election fraud is the reason Trump lost in Wisconsin. And that is not for lack of looking. He has advice to your party is to pivot away from these conspiracy theories focused on the issue that affects Wisconsin families and their pocketbooks.

Sir, I want to move on to January 6th and ask you about the committee. Look at the judge's opinion. Look at the judge's opinion in Pennsylvania that talked about over 2 million illegal ballots cast. That was their court order. Look at the special investigation of a former Wisconsin Supreme Court justice who found significant voter fraud at nursing homes in the state of Wisconsin.

Look at the 2000 Mules documentary that has come out. Look at how many mass mail-out of ballots there were across the United States for which we have no security.

Okay, and that has been looked at and fact-checked by multiple outlets, including Reuters, who have debunked that as any sort of proof that there was widespread voter fraud. I'm sorry, but other people have fact-checked it and found you absolutely wrong, Sandra. There you go. Thank goodness for Congressman Mo Brooks from Alabama. He just conducted a master's-level class on how to deal with the leftist in the mainstream media.

Now, what you just heard did not happen on CNN or MSDNC. That happened on Fox News Channel over the weekend. Sandra Smith trying to debunk a documentary, which I have seen, and I am telling you, folks, you need to watch it too, because Dinesh D'Souza did his homework. He did the investigations. They've got the goods.

And I don't know what's going on over at Fox News Channel where they're actually using Reuters as a legitimate fact-checking service. I want to go to the Patriot Mobile Newsmaker line. We're honored to have Dinesha's daughter, Danielle D'Souza Gill, with us. Danielle, what an honor to have you on the program today. Hi, Todd.

Thanks so much for having me. And, Danielle, look, it was important for us to be able to play that in its entirety so people could get an idea of what you guys are going through. I mean, the fact of the matter is that not even Fox News Channel wants to address the claims and the things that you guys discovered in this documentary. Yeah, and I think what's so amazing about it is the fact that the movie has taken off so much and so many people are watching it, even aside from the media blackout, aside from Fox News, who's supposed to be our biggest conservative network. They're supposed to be someone who kind of puts out some facts, but unfortunately they have not.

and yet so many people are watching it anyways and I think that's because the movie speaks for itself and because people actually want to know what happened in 2020 and they want to watch it and decide what they think. And again this is not this is not saying anything about what 2024 is supposed to be about or 2022. This is about understanding what happened in the 2020 presidential election and how do we stop that from happening again. Exactly and what's sad is that they don't actually want to fix anything. You know, people who say, oh, you know, we're just going to move on without even looking at the data, without even looking at the facts.

And the truth is people can't move on. They can't go turn out to vote.

So this argument that I think Sandra Smith was making on Fox, which is, oh, just focus on what's hurting Wisconsin voters, like inflation, what's hitting their pocketbooks.

Well, inflation is hurting people. It's a horrible thing. That's because of Biden, because of the stolen election. But do you think those people are going to go out and vote if they see that we are not doing anything about this problem.

So I think our goal is really to change things, to make it so that our elections actually mean something and that there's voter integrity. And that's why so many bills are being passed. That's why we're trying to get this film to AGs so that things can actually look better for our side. If their goal is for our side to win elections, that is exactly our goal too. And Danielle, we should be clear, this was not just Sandra Smith, there was a lot of controversy surrounding Tucker Carlson's executive producer.

They do not want people to know about this documentary. Did that surprise you guys, the sort of the hostility coming from the Fox News corner of the world? It did. I think because before at least 2020, when Fox had called Arizona, when, you know, they were kind of one of the first ones to come down on this whole election. I think that was shocking to many people who were watching that night.

But before that, I mean, I think, gosh, going back to 2016, even earlier, of course, so many people thought that they were a conservative network.

So it's really unfortunate because I think they have such an ability to influence people, and yet they're throwing that away. They're throwing that away. They want kind of all these America First listeners. They want to have the conservative viewers. They want to get the ratings, yet at the same time, And they don't want to deliver what those people are actually looking for.

So they kind of want to have their cake and eat it too. And I don't think it's going to work out for them. I think that you have to kind of decide, are you going to report on the facts? And look, they don't even have to say what their view is on it. But they can allow Dinesh, for example, to debunk the Reuters fact check that they mentioned.

But they're just taking the Reuters view on the face of it as opposed to actually looking into it. And also, aren't they a journalism outlet? Aren't they people who have their own journalists? Why aren't they doing a fact check? Instead, they just say, oh, Reuters said this.

We're going to move on. We're not even going to look into it. And I think it's because of what I said. They don't want to lose any of their right-wing viewers. Yeah, I'm with you on this, Danielle.

I mean, again, this is a professional news organization. They've got investigative journalists. They have an investigative team there at Fox. If they wanted to dig into this, they could have done it. I think they're using Reuters.

But again, once they threw Reuters out there and tried to debunk, at that point it's only fair for them to to invite Dinesh on to uh to defend himself and to defend this great documentary I want to ask you real quick though about uh the movies uh theaters how is that going I know we've been promoting it here on this on this radio program what do you guys get what what are you guys hearing out there my gosh well thanks Toddy yeah it's been crazy I mean the first round of the theaters um they sold out before they even hit the theaters because we have these pre-ordered ticket sales so then people said oh we can't get tickets we want to go to the theater and so that's why we decided to do this other round of theater um theater buyouts and it's been crazy like random people who go to a movie theater will basically see 2000 mules playing they can get tickets and go see it so um the theaters have actually been holding up great even in places that are not red areas um we're about to do a poll to find out um what the influence this film has on swing voters and people who aren't conservative so it's going to be really exciting to see what happens from that. But also virtual has been great.

So many people are watching it on Rumble. We did a big virtual premiere that had about 80,000 people tuning in who all got their tickets before it even started.

So we might do another virtual one because sometimes people want to kind of be part of more of like an evening with other people.

So it's been great just to see so many people actually wanting to look at this information. Danielle, one of the questions we've gotten from a lot of our listeners.

So what happens next year? Are any police agencies law enforcement agencies asking Dinesh for information so they can pursue you know criminal investigations into what happened It's mixed. You know, I would say great examples are Texas and Arizona. You know, Texas had kind of led the whole thing with the 2020 election where the states were saying, hey, we were all wronged. Our other states were wronged because of what happened in these states.

We need to go to the court. Of course, that never happened. The Ken Paxton's been looking into it. Also, there are going to be some arrests in Arizona.

So we're trying to push things forward in Arizona. And hopefully if people see that this is happening in particular states, then other states will say, maybe the ones, the AGs are a bit more scared, will say, okay, maybe I should do that too. But we've seen the worst response from Georgia. There's definitely something rotten going on in Georgia because they've known about this. They've known about the video surveillance.

A lot of it came from their state footage. and yet they are acting like there's nothing that they can do about it, even though they know the identity of the mules.

So it's definitely a mixed bag, but I think that whoever decides to take the lead on this issue, whether it's an AG or sheriff or things like that, I think that they're going to become a national star and will probably end up doing a great service to this country. All right, 2000mules.com, folks. If you want information on where the movie is playing, like Danielle said, get out there, get your tickets early, because they're going quickly. and this thing is spreading like wildfire, the most successful political documentary. Is it of all time yet?

I mean, this thing is just insane how well it's done. I mean, it is crazy. And, you know, it's literally only been out a few weeks. I want to say it hasn't even been a month yet because it came out around May 4th.

So it's really just been so crazy. But I think that this topic, it really has been on the minds of Americans literally the last two years, Yet because of censorship, digital censorship, obviously we talked about some of the traditional journalism censorship. You know, a lot of people didn't talk about it. They were like, OK, let's talk about other topics. But yet the American voter has not forgotten.

They're still confused. They're still wondering what the heck is going on. And so, you know, even if it's just just getting more facts, getting more of a sense of what happened here, I think that's so important for going into next time. And I don't think this issue is going away because, you know, Trump is continuing to talk about it. If he runs again, this is going to be a central issue the next two years.

And until we can really fix this problem, I think this is something that's going to be a huge, I mean, national security issue, let alone a big thing the media is eventually just going to have to cover. All right.

Well said. We're going to have to leave it there, Danielle. Good to have you. Tell your dad you did a good job.

So you're giving him a run for the money here. Oh, my goodness. Well, you know, I'm in D'Souza. You can book if he's busy. I love it.

I just set my phone down, put it in flex mode, and capture hands-free pics from multiple angles. Or how to capture our training sessions for his followers. I simply wave my hand to start recording video. Good boy! Plus, the Z Flip 4 is compact and fits perfectly in my pocket.

Click the banner to get your Galaxy Z Flip 4. All right, welcome back, everybody. Todd Stearns here with you. Hey, let's go to the phones, 844-747-8868. We have the lovely Queen of New Orleans on the line, Miss Janice.

Hey, Miss Janice, how are you doing? Hello, Todd, how are you doing? We are now following one another on True Social.

Well, I'm very excited about this. I've been trying to catch up and follow people. What's your handle? May I ask you? I don't want to say that over all the airwaves here.

And, of course, we can message each other in Twitter, which I do sometimes, too. I'll send you things in there, so you might want to check your messages sometime. I'll do that. I'm not very good at doing that, but I need to do a better job. It's not hard at all.

It's not hard. But anyway, this is what I wanted to say, and this is very, very important. Yes. You know, I've been saying this for a while now. I could have a television program, and I could do a lot better than Judge Judy.

This is the way I'd call it Janus justice. Ooh, I like this. Yes, I do, too. Because it's not only school shootings. Yes, it's school shootings, all right.

But here's one thing I'm going to say before I go any further here. You see the shootings. you see, okay, you can joke about COVID and monkeypox and now they're talking strawberries, something about HIV. I truly believe that we are in the end times. In the end times, in the Bible, it speaks of famine, pestilence, war, rumor of war, and other things.

And it seems to me that this is where we are. And people better get down on their knees and pray to God for our country.

Now, as I said, when it comes to anything, I don't care whether it's a school shooting or a kid breaking into my house and killing me or somebody breaking into a car, a carjacker, and there was a woman here. They carjacked her, teenagers. They carjacked her, and they drug her. And they ripped her arm right off her body. Yes, yes, yes.

And she's dead.

Well, I say, anything like that, if you kill someone and it's not in self-defense of yourself or another person saving someone from someone else you should get you go to court you get your day in court but if you are found guilty you get the death penalty I would have a whiteboard and I'd play very fair with the criminals I'd have life on one side death on the other and I'd have a line down the middle murder you die.

Now if you're a minor I would keep you oh yes I'll give you a little ice cream maybe even get you a MyPillow with Todd Starnes as the promo code but on your 18th birthday when you become a legal adult you will be executed I am sorry but what more could you do but let me know if you don't want life in jail, I mean no probation, no parole, and you don't want death penalty. I love it. Janice, I love it. I love it. Justice with Janice.

Wow. Janice Justice. Oh, Janice Justice. I like that. But no, I mean, you sell drugs, death penalty.

Use drugs, life in jail. Rape a woman, life in jail. Have sex with a minor, death penalty. Shoot anybody, a school, or anybody, and murder them, death penalty. We'll be right back, America.

Peace, Lord. We all know someone who's all work and no chill. Trust me, that used to be me. But then I found Galaxy Z Fold 4, which allows me to do more things at once. Ah, much better.

Now I can take video calls from my phone and use it to take notes at the same time. Wait, are you at the spa? Or check my shopping list while ordering more scented candles and face masks on the foldable expansive screen. Don't take your to-do list one line at a time. Multitask so you can relax.

Click the banner to get your Galaxy Z Fold 4. All right, welcome back to the Todd Starnes Radio Show. Folks, a moment of personal privilege, if you will. Thanks to your efforts, my latest two books are bestsellers, and I am just so incredibly thankful for that. Culture Jihad, How to Stop the Left from Killing a Nation, an important book.

We have a lot of new listeners, and I want to encourage you to head over to our website or go to Amazon, wherever you get your books, and get yourself a copy of Culture Jihad. Actually, if you get it on Amazon, it's like five bucks, so they're running a discount. It is the quintessential book on how to understand what's happening in our country and what's about to happen in our country. Folks, I'm telling you, we are on the path to socialism, and this is a very strategic thing that's happening in our country. whether it's trying to shut down and successfully shutting down the churches during the China virus, whether it's shutting down your businesses, closing the schools, whether it's sicking the FBI on moms and dads who have problems with other kids are learning.

This is all part of a grand scheme to shut down our freedoms. That's why whatever gun grab that's about to happen, it's going to be very important. Democrats, by the way, this news just in, Democrats today introducing eight gun control pieces of legislation. We'll see how that goes. But I'm telling you, it's pretty crazy.

All right, time now for crime news across America. Keeping you updated on crimes sweeping across the fruited plain. I ain't scared of no po-po-colder, po-po-colder, po-po. This is the Starnes ABV. Dateline Alpena, Michigan.

A Michigan man accused of committing a strange crime in the northern part of the state. Jeremy Michael Fisher, age 42, charged with malicious destruction of personal property. He allegedly dumped maple syrup into the fuel tank of a car. The bizarre incident apparently occurred when a woman and her boyfriend got into a fight. It's always the lover's quarrel that'll get you in trouble with the law.

So anyway, Mr. Fisher, due in court to answer those charges. All right, we have this story from Georgia Grace. I don't think this is really a crime story, but let's work through this. Brunswick, Georgia, home of the stew.

Yeah, I just had to include this story, and it doesn't really fit into a category, so we're sticking it in this one. Workers cooking burgers and tater tots in a Sonic. Oh, I love both. I love a good Sonic burger. I love...

And what are the beverages, the fruity drinks, the slushies? The slushies, and I love the mozzarella sticks.

Okay, I'm not a big mozzarella guy, but I love the burger and tots.

Okay, fair enough. Anyway, workers cooking burgers and tots in a Sonic fast food kitchen in Brunswick, Georgia, home of the stew, fled after discovering an intruder hiding behind the deep fryer.

So that sounds like a crime.

Someone was trespassing. The police were summoned. Brunswick Police Lieutenant Matthew Wilson found employees huddled in the parking lot. Huddle house, maybe? He investigated.

It turns out that the intruder was brown in color with diamonds on its back. Continue, Todd. Quote, when I saw it, I could tell it was just a ball python and not a rattlesnake, the officer told the Brunswick News. He removed the large non-venomous snake but also found it a new home with a friend who had a large terrarium. Yeah, its new home would be buried in the crowd.

Yes. I didn't realize that apparently the snake was looking for a warm spot.

So he found the hot fire. But, yeah, I just can't handle those snakes. No. All right.

Next story. All right.

This is from The Smoking Gun. Always a story involving a Florida man. Uh, the Florida man, in this particular case, a 64-year-old retiree was arrested for allegedly exposing himself to a female investigator. Uh, police say that the man was, um, found on the beach in a Speedo, exposing himself. You know, that's not a good place to do that.

Um, I just, you know, again, because of the sand, you could develop a rash. I mean, that's a very bad situation there. Anyway, a witness, I'm not going to describe what the witness saw him doing, but it's never good when you have a man in a Speedo. I mean, a Speedo is already tight, and then you've got the sand. I don't even want to know where it ended up at.

See, this is why the Europeans lost World War II. It's because that's what they do. They run around the beach in the Speedos. Or nothing at all. And the Germans were like, oh, yeah, we can beat that.

I mean, that's – They look ridiculous. All right, next story. This from the hometown of Memphis, Tennessee. And this is not a good one, folks. This is the headline from kwamradio.com.

Woman in bikini twerks on police cruiser. We actually had the video of this over at kwamradio.com. While most Americans were honoring those who sacrificed their lives so that we could live in freedom. A bunch of bikini-clad Memphians staged a wild pool party. It was called Project Splash and Ass.

You're kidding me. No, I'm not kidding you. As a matter of fact, there was a woman with a large badonkadok and a thong bikini on the advertisement, which also invited people if they needed to find parking, they could go to the nearby Church of Christ. Oh, my goodness. Video shows a wild crowd of partygoers surrounding a police cruiser.

At one point, an officer got out of the car to shoo away the mob. That's when a woman dressed in a thong bikini jumped up on the hood of the taxpayer-funded patrol car and commenced to thrusting her private parts in front of God and the Memphis Police Department. Do you think she was dancing to party in the USA? Could be. Elsewhere, at least a half a dozen other bikini-clad women mounted a civilian's convertible and simulated relations with great gusto.

That's a fancy way to phrase that, but okay. Hundreds of Memphians were outraged. No home training or class whatsoever, one person wrote. No respect for law enforcement or themselves. Quote, this is tasteless ghetto and not funny.

You don't even have to say Memphis because it's so obvious.

Now, it's weird because I was looking at the swimming pool. I'm like, wow, this must be. I mean, there are hundreds of people that attended this thing. And I was looking. I got a glance at the swimming pool.

It's basically somebody's backyard swimming pool. Oof. Might I suggest that you don't jump into. I would even dip your big toe into that water. Yeah.

No, thank you. I'm good. Yeah.

Yeah, unless you want to put a couple of extra scoops of chlorine in there. Maybe use a wet wipe. I'm just saying. I bet there were guys in Speedos there. Unlikely.

It was chaos. Just chaos. All right, there you go, ladies and gentlemen. That is your crime news across the fruited plain. You know, Grace, I will say this.

It was just a weird weekend here. I mean, you got the woman twerking on the police car. You've got all these people out, and I don't know if they do this in your communities, folks, but the Dodge Chargers, and they do the donuts.

So they have drag races on regular streets. Let's say you're just going down to the Walmart, and the next thing you know, there's the car in front of you, and they're peeling out and doing donuts in the intersection. And we're not talking about the jelly-filled kind. No. And 13 people shot over the weekend here.

What, 40-plus shot in Chicago? All Democrat cities, by the way. It's terrible. Just terrible out there. All right, look, I've got to take a break here.

Before we go to break, I want to tease this story from Chicago, from Chicagoland. A high school has announced that they are going to no longer provide grades based on your abilities on a test.

Now, when I was growing up, if you flunked a test, you flunked a test. And you know what? You studied hard so you would not flunk the test again. But that's not what's happening in one Chicago school district, a high school. Oak Park River Forest High School has now announced a new race-based grading system.

So you will now, your grade will be adjusted to account for your skin color or your ethnicity. And we're going to get into this in just a few minutes. It's unbelievable, but basically, if you're white, you're sort of screwed here based on the school district's decision. But again, a school in Chicago now implementing what is believed to be one of the first in the nation, a race-based grading policy.

So if you are a minority student, you're going to be given more opportunities and unlimited opportunities to change your grade. 844-747-8868, toll-free telephone number. That's 844-747-8868.

Herschel Walker, there's a little dust up here between President Trump and Herschel Walker.

So you folks in Georgia, do you guys know what's going on here?

So Herschel was doing an interview on some left-wing outlet, and he said that he's mad at former President Trump. Let's take a listen. One thing that people don't know is President Trump never asked me, and I need to tell him that. He never asked. I heard it all on television that he's going to ask Herschel, he's saying Herschel to run.

President Trump never came out as Herschel, would you run for that Senate seat? Herschel, run for that. He never asked. So I'm mad at him because he never asked, but he's taking credit that he asked. Before all this started coming about, my wife and I went with Pastor Tony Evans at Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship, and we went into prayer.

We went into prayer, and I prayed about it. And to be honest with you, I was praying that God would bring somebody else. I'm like, I'm happy. My life is doing well. I got a company, man.

I'm rolling. But I love the Lord Jesus. And I said, one thing. All right.

There you go. So that was Herschel Walker, and he said he's mad at President Trump. I'm not sure why he would be out there saying any of this stuff, but ultimately Walker is saying that Trump had nothing to do with his decision to run for the U.S. Senate in Georgia.

So if that's true, that's sort of weird, because Herschel Walker was living in Texas, had to move back to Georgia to run for the Senate. And that's been a big complaint among people. Also, Raphael Warnock is now inviting Walker, challenging him to three debates. And this is a big deal. We knew this was coming.

Walker refused to debate any of his opponents in the Republican primary. And there's a reason why, and we're going to find out. Walker, at this point, he doesn't need to be debating anybody. And he just better pray that his name recognition gets him elected. He can't debate.

I mean, it's that simple. And that's why he refused to debate his Republican primary opponents. He just can't debate.

So if Walker, I hope his handlers are giving him some wise counsel here, because that could get ugly fast if he decides to do these debates. But it seems to me, you know, President Trump doesn't like this when you go out there and I mean, he's basically calling Trump a liar. And this makes absolutely no sense. Why even talk about these kinds of things? At this point, he needs to be focused on one person.

That's Raphael Warnock, period. That's it. 844-747-8868. That's our toll-free telephone number. That's 844-747-8868.

By the way, still no winner in the Republican primary Senate race in Pennsylvania. You've got Dr. Oz, who was advised by President Trump to go out there and declare himself the winner, and he's done that. But officially, there's still no winner. But Dr.

Oz seems to think he is the presumptive nominee there in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. All right.

This story back to Breitbart, the headline, Chicago High School to Implement Race-Based Grading System. They say that traditional grading practices perpetuate inequities. And they say that students, depending on their race, will not be held accountable for missing class or misbehaving in class or for failing to turn in assignments. As a matter of fact, students will also be given the opportunity to take a test over and over and over and over again until they pass. According to Breitbart, the Illinois State Board of Education says 38% of sophomores fail the scholastic aptitude test.

The failure rate was 77% for black students, 49% for Hispanic students, 27% for Asian students, and 25% for white students. Margaret Sullivan is the associate director of the Education Advisory Board. She said teachers have to recognize when personal biases manifest. quote teachers may unintentionally let non-academic factors like student behavior or whether a student showed up to class interfere with their final evaluation of students well well if the kid doesn't show up for class what is a teacher supposed to do give him an a an a for effort folks this is this is sending us down a very bad path i'll just throw this question out there for you.

So let's just say you want to be an engineer and you're an engineer, you're a minority engineer, and you have been allowed to advance in your degree program, even though you might possibly be dumb as a rock. You know what?

Let's change it. Let's just make it a white person. All right.

Let's just say you're a white person. You want to be an engineer, but you have been advanced along the way simply because of the color of your skin. And let's just say you get a job, and you get a job building airplanes. And one day you decide that you're going to take a vacation. Years later, you're going to take a vacation.

Would you want to take an airplane ride in an airplane that was designed by an engineer who was not qualified would you or or let me just throw that out there ladies of the Todd Sturge radio program audience would you want to date an airplane that has been made by an engineer who didn't know what he was doing no of course not you want a big sturdy airplane that's going to get you through the turbulence of life so to speak all right look We're going to leave this there. You can read the story at ToddStearns.com. Folks, you get out there. Have a great day, America. We'll see you back tomorrow.
