From Memphis, Tennessee, on the banks of the mighty Mississippi, it's America's conservative blowtorch. That's us. That's right. I love this America. Hello, ladies and gentlemen.
Welcome to the Todd Sterns Radio Program.
So great to have you with us today, as we begin the process of fixing what is broken with the Republican Party. We have got a lot of things to talk about today. We have some great guests coming up, and ladies and gentlemen, again, I just want to to circle back to something I shared with. With you yesterday on this very program, do not give up. On the United States of America.
Now, I'm just going to tell you my. This is my viewpoint. This is my. This is my attitude. Moving forward is that we've got a country to save, and I'm never going to.
I'm never going to give up. I'm always going to fight the good fight, even until the the bitter end, if in fact there is a bitter end. But, ladies and gentlemen, we have no other choice but to stand up. Brush ourselves off and get back into the fight. We've got a lot of work to do.
We've got to we've got to fix the the Republican Party, and we have to help them understand the error of their ways. And there are a lot of errors, ladies and gentlemen, a lot of them. But as it now stands, and I was watching President Trump yesterday as he was speaking from the from the White House, and the president talking about the election, and I just found it quite frankly ironic that he was standing right in front of the massive building project underway, the massive White House ballroom. And again, it is a it is a tone deafness coming from the White House and coming from the Republican Party, and they don't get it. That's you.
Here we are, two days removed from from the election, and I'm here to tell you they don't get it. As a matter of fact, the White House is actually blaming you for what happened on Tuesday. The Republican Party they're blaming you, the good voters, for the fact. That they got booted out of office, they don't seem to understand that the reason why so many people showed up at the ballot box and did not vote for them is because they have failed the American people. They have lied to the American people, and that is something that we're going to have to we're going to have to figure out.
But we're going to figure it out together.
So I still have hope in America. Always have. Always will. And I hope you have hope in America. I believe in this great experiment.
The reality is, we have to elect human beings to the House of Representatives and the Senate, and they are human beings, and they are not—they are not infallible. But there has been a whole lot of screwing up and screwing around. Over the past decade or so, and we've got to fix that. We've got to nip it in the bud, as the late great Barney Fife would say.
So we've got a lot of great guests coming up that are going to help us provide analysis. We're also going to be taking your calls as well. Do you believe that it is the fault of You, the voters, are you guys responsible for what happened on on Tuesday? Our telephone number nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. That's nine zero one two six zero five nine two six.
Now let me explain what's going to happen here, and this is one of the reasons I'm very hopeful. These Democrats are bringing the they're bringing crazy town to Washington D.C. These people are as woke and are as radical. As you can imagine, a politician being, you've got, for example, in San Francisco, Nancy Pelosi did not run, so the new congressman from San Francisco who is replacing Nancy Pelosi is a guy named Scott Weiner. And Scott Weiner, you might recall, is a radical LGBT activist.
This is the guy, and there are plenty of photographs, and you can Google him if you want to. I would caution you, though, because this guy loves the the leather chaps scene, and this guy is probably going to show up to Washington D.C. wearing his buttless leather chaps. But you know what? It's San Francisco.
What do you want me to do about it? This is a guy who advocates for the pedophiles of America. This is a guy who wants to lower the penalties for sex crimes in California. This guy is now a member of Congress. I'm sure he's going to have plenty of freaky deaky friends up on Capitol Hill, no doubt about it.
Then there's a guy by the name of Robert Garcia who is expected to become a very powerful figure in in in the Congress. And this guy is already telling Republicans, all Republicans, that they better lawyer up. This guy also coming out in California and tell. Huntington Beach, the citizens of Huntington Beach, which is a very conservative town, that their goal is to purge MAGA from Huntington Beach, California. Take a listen.
Cut forty-three. Also, clear that Huntington Beach will elect at least one, but likely more, possibly two Democrats to its city council when the when all the votes are counted, and that is. Incredibly, welcome news as well for this community, and of course, I'm proud to represent all of Orange County, but especially here in Huntington Beach. And I just want to also be very clear that the days of Huntington Beach being a mega city are over. This is a community that is diverse.
That with I've knocked doors, folks just want good services. People want good representation, and I'm excited to represent the entire community. For those who don't know, Huntington Beach is one of the last beaches that isn't flooded with illegals, flooded with trash, flooded with homeless tents, and that's because Republicans are the ones in control. But according to this Democrat, he wants to change all of that, and I hope everyone sees the irony here because it's spelled out perfectly in this comment. If he was excited to represent the entire community, he wouldn't be proclaiming that he's going to make sure that part of the community is removed from the community.
And really think about that, because he doesn't care about the American people. His entire plan is to represent foreigners and remove MAGA, remove the Americans. Yeah, that that's it. I mean, this is this is very Bolshevik of of Congressman Garcia, the Democrat. But this is this is how they think.
I mean, these Democrats they are bringing the wokest DEI agenda in American history to Washington D.C. It is going to be ugly, and they're going to overstep. And that is that's going to be the saving grace here, ladies and gentlemen, because when it comes to things like, for example, When it comes to the the transgender ideology, the LGBT stuff, when it comes to that, those are ninety ten issues. The American people—they don't want boys running around buck naked in their daughters' locker rooms. They—they just don't.
That's that's that's unAmerican. And I'll give you an example of this. On Tuesday, there were four states, and all four of these states had ballot initiatives, and these ballot initiatives banned boys from playing on girls' athletic teams. And some of the states it went so far as to ban boys from girls' bathrooms. And locker rooms, and all four of those measures passed overwhelmingly.
You may say, "Well, Todd, that's that. That sounds fantastic." Was that? Was that Arkansas? Was that Louisiana? No, it was.
Are you ready for this? Washington State. It was Arizona. It was Nebraska. It was Colorado.
So we're talking about liberal or moderate, moderately liberal states, and even in those states, they. Get it, the people get it, but the Democrats they don't get it, and they're going to overstep.
So we have to really just step step out of their way and let them implode, right?
So if the Republicans can do that, then 2028 we could have a fighting chance to save the presidency and perhaps retake the U.S. Senate. But it is going to be a long, long, hard slog for that to happen. Again, our telephone number nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. That's nine zero one two six zero five nine two six, Alabama.
You guys getting your very first transgender dude in the state house? Take a listen. The culture war stuff is all to keep us from uniting and being stronger than the billionaires. They are making sure we have less of a chance to stand up to businesses who want to abuse our state and exploit our workers. I'm not going to let that happen in Alabama.
It stops with us, with my generation of legislators. That's what I'm all about. All right, that's a dude, ladies and gentlemen, in Alabama, in Alabama.
So you've got just a a gaggle of leftists and far leftists who have won elections at the local level, the state level, and the federal level. The most dangerous, in my estimation, is Abdul El Sayed, who broke out in the Muslim chant after he was declared the winner. I think we're all going to get to see him for who he really is. But the the sad part about all of this is that only seventeen percent of evangelical Christian voters only seventeen percent bothered to get out and vote on election day. Only seventeen percent.
You say, what does that tell us?
Well, I am going to tell you what it says. This is one of the reasons why we are launching our very own line of burkas for Baptist women because. Hate to say this, but all you churches out there, you guys suck. You really do. the The churches that disengage from the culture, the churches, and you have pastors, and they will not deviate.
They plot out their sermons for a whole year. They will not deviate from their sermons. They will not talk about big issues in the culture because they don't want to offend people. They don't want to get political. I want somebody to show me in.
The Bible. Show me in the Bible where it says churches should not be engaging the culture in their communities. I want somebody to show that to me in Holy Scripture because it's not there. It's not there.
So shame on all of you Christians who did not get out and vote.
Well, Todd, I only vote for pure, honest, godly people.
Well, I hate to break it to you, Jesus ain't on the ballot. You're gonna find fault with every every person running for office has something wrong with them. Every single person. We're all humans. We are flawed.
So you can make that argument, but if you do, the only person you're gonna ever you're what are you gonna do? Write in the Lord's name on the ballot as a write in? Is that what is that what you recommend doing?
So just something for you folks to think about. But again, I get it. This election cycle. I think people just reached the. They said that's it.
This is the end of the line. It's the end of the rope. We're done with these lying Republicans. Oh, do we have the? We don't have the Ted Cruz.
We're. I'm going to get you the Ted Cruz audio. This is insane. Ted Cruz fighting back tears, talking about how.
Well, you know, it's the gas prices. It's the grocery prices. It's you know what, Ted Cruz. I don't want to hear it from you. You had an opportunity to get rid of John Thune, and you didn't do it.
So you're just as bad as everybody else in my book. All right, we're going to take a break. We're going to go to the phone lines. Nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. That's nine zero one two six zero five nine two six.
This is the Todd Stern Show. Remember back in 2020 when the media narrative was absolute? When anybody suggesting early alternatives was instantly silenced and deplatformed. The late Doctor Zev Zelenko was right at the epicenter of it all when he created ZStack and the Zelenko Protocol. He took immense heat for sharing his protocol, specifically designed to boost your immune system.
Even President Trump himself cited him in a press briefing regarding what would become known as the Zelensko Protocol, which led to Trump himself adopting it.
Now, I just saw the video on X and saw it for myself. Amazing! Every key ingredient behind those protocols was meticulously chosen based on rigorous research at the exact doses that matter.
Now, over five years later, history has completely vindicated him.
Now. We all know how critical a strong immune system is, and if you've ever felt helpless watching the headlines, hear this: you are not powerless. There is something you can do about it. ZStack gives your body the foundational immune support it needs to help fight off whatever is circulating out there. Don't wait for permission to take charge of your immune system.

This is the Todd Stearns Radio Show, and I got to say hello. We had some lovely folks from Calvary Chapel Chino Hills, and they're in the middle of a cross-country trip from Southern California, making their way to Hollywood. And they stop by. I, you know, whenever I'm out and and I'm speaking to a group, I tell folks, you know, if you're ever in Memphis, drop on by and and say. Say hello, and we had a chance to fellowship a little while ago.
Gave him copies of the brand new book, "The Golden Age: How Trump Almost Saved America," and I just, Dylan, that's not the title. That's not the title. But anyway, we had a lovely time of fellowship, and I believe they're listening to the Mighty Nine Hundred and Ninety KWAM. I think they're going down to Beal Street, and they're they're looking for a house in Eads.
So welcome to the Mid South. Got this, and I got this this email from one of our Georgia listeners, and his name is Carrie, and he writes to me, Todd, help me. I'm Carrie. I'm going to do my best," he says. Todd, I live in Georgia, so I don't have a senator to write to, so I will vent and ask for your help.
All this finger pointing, and I don't want to hear. And I don't hear anyone talking about what I feel was a major contributor to the disaster Tuesday. I did not contribute any money to the Republican Party because I was afraid it would find its way to a lame senator, and I feel a large segment feel the Senate let us. Down by not getting much passed at all. Thune was a disgrace.
I didn't see him do much to push Save America or other bills.
Now I see he wants another term as minority leader, so the Democrats don't undo what he did. What did he do? He needs to step down or resign from the Senate completely. Thanks for listening. I appreciate all you do.
Signed, Kerry from Hartwell, Georgia. Carrie, I feel your pain, and I know if you listen to Fox News, they're trying to blame the White or they're trying to blame the White House. But Fox News needs to be putting the blame where it mostly needs to go, which is Congress. And you're right. John Thune needs to go, and I hold every single Republican, every single Republican in the Senate, I hold responsible for that.
Every single one of them, not a one, called for Thune or took action to remove Thune from power.
Now, there's something else I want to recommend, and I did this personally, and I can tell you I'm a much happier American. I stopped donating to my local Republican Party. Because they were wasting and squandering my hard-earned money on losers, and I've decided that moving forward, I will support a candidate, but I will not support the Republican Party. I don't trust them anymore. They can they can earn back my trust, but it's going to take some time.
But I'm I was just tired of giving money to a political organization that promised one thing and consistently did did another. I also got sick and tired of supporting a local Republican Party that went out of its way to stab Republican candidates in the back, and so I just don't give money to them anymore. And let me tell you something: they're hurting. Because of that, all right. Let's go to Jason Gainesville, Georgia.
Starting our day on WDUW. Jason, what's on your mind? Good morning, Mister Starns. The I get to the point. This here in Georgia, we I don't believe this about the gas and the war and all this stuff because Brian Kemp he cut our gas tax.
All right, it kept our gas low the whole time. All right, and Joe Biden it never got as high as what Joe Biden had it.
Okay, we've had all these movie studios moving from California over here to Georgia, and they're all over Georgia.
Well, they brought thousands and thousands these people with them from California, and all these people are Democrats. And I think that what's happened is because there's no way Georgians would have put this lady in office because of the because of what she did because she never finished her term because she was run out of town. To me, and and because I know a lot of smart black ladies that would do a great job, because you know it's nothing to do with that, and and so I feel like the people that came from here out of town and moved here and brought the politics with them, they put these people in there because John Ox, the Senate and the Congress here in Georgia, along with Nancy Pelosi, and these people raised our inflation up to nine percent. And if you was filling out an application for me, there's no way I would have hired you. You know, I'd have got rid of you and try to put somebody else in there.
And so, and that's the way I feel like all this gas stuff. Same thing with Texas. I don't believe it's about the gas with Texas. The reason why? Because they brought all these ball Muslims in there, and they voted.
People from California been moving to Texas.
So you're talking about this this idea of of replacement and bringing in a lot of these folks from California and the liberal states. Look, no doubt about it, Jason. That that did have a lot to do with it. I will say this: in Hall County, Georgia, thirty three percent of you folks voted for Keisha Lance Bottoms, but. Sixty-six percent voted for Rick Jackson.
So there you go. Hang tight, everybody. I'll have more to say about this coming up. Have you ever wondered why some people seem to age slower, like they figured out some secret the rest of us missed?
Well, it turns out someone actually did, and it starts with a melon. Yep, a melon. There's a rare French melon that stays fresh four times longer than the fruit you and I buy at the store. Scientists discovered it produces an extraordinarily high level of a super antioxidant called SOD, the kind that helps defend skin from the visible signs of aging. And get this, meaningful.
Beauty partnered with world-renowned French cosmetic specialist Dr. Jean-Louis Sabat to capture that melon's youth-preserving power in a skincare line you can actually use every day.

All right, welcome back, everybody. This is the Todd Stern's Radio Show, and I want to go right away to the Patriot Mobile Newsmaker Line. Luke Ball joining us, the CEO of Compass Strategies. Luke, good to have you with us. And there is there is a lot of soul searching going on, I have to imagine, in Washington right now.
And I'm just curious what do you what do you make of the really cata Catastrophic night that that Republicans had.
Well, days, weeks before the midterms even showed up, it felt like we were sitting around waiting for a funeral, and that's essentially what it was. We just didn't know who was going to be left standing after election night, and there was almost a sense of dread amongst Republicans. But I like to look at another side of it. I think that the Republican Party and the way we stand right now has gotten off course a little bit. And the American people were not going to have an opportunity to make that resoundingly clear until election night.
It doesn't mean that conservatives are on the back foot. It doesn't mean Republicans can't course correct and come back in a few years. But something needs to drastically change. There's there's a difference. Number one, between what this same group of people who kicked Republicans out of Washington wanted two years ago, and the way that things have gone over the last.
Two years, so they liked the promises we made, but they don't like the job we did.
So tangibly, instead of talking abstractly, it's obvious. Number one, Iran war. You and I have had conversations over the last year about this. We were uneasy about it. We wanted to see the direction that the administration went, and we resoundingly were proven right, or at least I was proven right.
I'm not sure if you've given your opinion on the Iran war, but I was just really hesitant to see us get dragged in. To another Middle East conflict that looked so closely like Iraq, and that had down ballot repercussions, and it had downstream impacts with our economy.
So we're going to start there, and as we fine tune along the way, it's not just about the war and the economy. It's about doing what you said you promised you would do if you got elected, because we ultimately just have not accomplished on that.
Well, no, no, we we have not, and and I think there is there's a lot of blame to to go around. I was very surprised to see JD Vance's statement that he posted on X.
Now, yesterday, we we were told that the president knew about it. There's new reporting out today suggesting the president did not know about it, and that the vice president was just saying, "Hey, look, I'm about to post this on social media." And it's clear to me that there is a divide in in the White House in the administration over things like the war. You know, for J.D. Vance to come out in the post in the post mortem and say, "You know what? Yeah, our pollsters were telling us that people were upset with gas prices and affordability and the war and all." Are you kidding me?
You needed a pollster to tell you that? Come on. First of all, there was no way Donald Trump knew about the substance of the post because right after it came out, or even you know, in the hours following, he said that he would essentially double down on the Iran War, which was antithetical to what JD Vance had posted. It's a free for all, Todd, in the GOP. And I told Australian Broadcasting Corporation, which is a far left outlet, they were questioning me on some of the stuff, and I was pointing out things conservatives had done.
Well, but also some of the failures we've had. I said, look, if we get blown out of the water, there's going to be a mad dash of at least two dozen household Republican names who are going to be trying to conduct an autopsy and reach the MAGA throne. I was surprised JD Vance was first out of the gate with that because it was a departure from the current administration. Nobody can deny that. I mean, Joe Biden didn't give Kamala Harris this much wiggle room when when they were running in the last election.
He said no. Daylight, kid, and now JD Vance is out there in front, leading the charge. We're going to see a whole lot more of this moving forward. Frankly, it's a good thing. I don't think that we need to just completely give up on the current administration, but if we didn't have some fine tuning and some pruning, we weren't going to grow.
And I'd lastly say I've compared it to a wildfire. Everything's burning up all around you in the moment, but there's new growth afterwards, and oftentimes it's stronger growth. Luke, hang tight for just a second. We do have some breaking news to share with with our audience. Breaking news now on the Todd Stern Show.
All right, Fox News now reporting that Hermie Dillon has resigned her post at the Department of Justice. Hermie Dillon just did an extraordinary job as Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights. She was nominated by President Trump in twenty twenty four and was sworn in in twenty. 25, but she is now leaving the the Trump administration. We have no other details.
Also, hearing reports that as many as five cabinet members may be getting close to submitting their resignations. Luke, this is not unexpected. Whenever the midterms come along, there are some changes in the administration. What do you make of what do you make of this news? I don't remember it happening so quickly after the midterms, which is a little surprising to me.
Normally, folks wait till the holidays, or at least that's what I would have done, because the news cycle dies down a little bit. It's not so much of a backlash to the administration; it's fallen out of the midterm time frame for a new cycle.
So, if folks are doing it this early, it's almost like a breach in the dike or in the dam, where people start, you know, pouring out after the. First couple happen now. I don't want to say there's going to be a mass exodus, but there's also just kind of a natural evolution in Washington. I'm not saying that it's necessarily this administration. That's just how the thing operates.
If people are going to be focused on the Democrat side with investigations over the next two years, which believe me is all that's going to be happening, no legislating on Capitol Hill, only investigations, then I think folks are going to be trying to look for something in the private sector.
So there's probably a sense of self-preservation. But I'm I'm more looking to who comes out of the administration and starts defining their own lane and posturing for the next round of presidential elections. Because make no mistake, this is 2015 all over again. You're going to have 16, 17 people on the debate stage in a matter of months who are going to be trying to vie for the next leadership mantle. And also, let's be very clear: no one's getting handed this.
No one's no one's inheriting the mag. A mantle. Anyone who thinks they're going to do that is going to wind up with one or two percent in the polls. They're going to have to go build it on their own. I'm curious to hear your thoughts on Governor Ron DeSantis.
Clearly, he is going to be running. He came out even before the election and started explaining what was about to happen, which which means everybody knew, even the White House knew. And there's a fascinating behind the scenes look at what happened in the New York Times and. And it was very clear they knew you know five or six days out how bad things were going to be, but DeSantis has come up with a solution here, and I I'm curious to hear your thoughts on this because all of this can be turned around. This was not some sort of a repudiation of the Republican agenda.
This was punishing the Republicans for not delivering on that agenda. And here's what Ron DeSantis had to say: Cut forty-two. I'd roll in cots to the U.S. Senate cloakroom. I'd have them work round the clock because you are not going to be able to confirm any conservative judges starting January 3rd for the remainder of President Trump's term.
They have 54 for sure. They may end up with 56, even if you got some of these red state Democrats to flip over. You are not going to get six Democrats for a conservative nominee.
So I would make sure every vacancy is filled. Between now and January third, you cannot leave anything on the table. Luke, what do you think about that? The mad dash has begun. He's carving out his own lane.
I was critical of DeSantis in the first primary because I think it was Donald Trump's moment and another opportunity to come around. Vastly different political environment back then. But he's right. And the Senate, unfortunately, is probably not going to do that. I know they're not going to do that, and they're probably not going to get much accomplished in the next few months as their their opportunity to actually deliver something.
Whoa, look why why would they not do that? I mean, do they not do they not understand? And what just happened to them?
Well, dude, they had two years to do something, like a golden opportunity. The House, the Senate, the White House. If they didn't do it then, why are they going to do it now? They're going to be nitpicking. They're going to essentially take advantage of the the the blood in the water, for lack of a better phrase, like sharks circling politically in order to try and edge ahead their own.
Politics—they're going to try to have their own axe to grind politically.
So you know they're not going to look at what what's good for the country, what's good for the GOP. They're out for themselves. And if you don't believe me, like they're not going to suddenly grow a spine and in the last two months of their tenure start actually getting through these individuals. Most of them are just completely tired of the Senate anyway. They just have nowhere else to go, and they realize if they leave, they're probably going to go downhill so quickly because of just how.
They are respectfully, but that's just what happens. And a lot of the Republicans are just bummed out that they lost their own elections.
Well, it's it's it's it's insane. Insane. Luke Ball joining us on our Patriot Mobile Newsmaker line. On the other side of all this, about five minutes ago, Steve Scalise put out a a memorandum to House members asking for a list. I think they're compiling a list of people who may become targets for the Democrats, and they are prepared for for the Democrats engaging in retribution, going after anyone that's connected to the Trump.
Administration, Luke. This one of the saving graces here is the Democrats are going to overstep the moment. You're exactly right. I cut my teeth on Capitol Hill when we were in the middle of the Mueller investigations, when the Democrats were coming at Donald Trump incessantly, and it just totally flopped for him. I mean, the J six Committee did nothing to move the needle.
You remember Republicans were successful in the elections following that. They aren't going to actually accomplish things for the American people because they will refuse to work with Donald Trump on even nonpartisan issues.
So. What I'm going to be doing over the next few weeks, and I'm actually going back to Capitol Hill to help work with some new members of Congress who are coming in from our side, is encouraging them to recognize the moment here because in the minority, it's communications that sees the day, and we have to have strong, sharp communications, arguing and messaging to push back. Because now's our chance to try to show the people: you might have been upset at us for not accomplishing our agenda; we're getting our act. Together and watch for the next two years. The Democrats aren't going to do a doggone thing.
All right, Luke Ball, great, great commentary and analysis as always. Appreciate you hopping on the show today, Luke. Thank you, my friend. All right, there you have it, everybody. All right, we're going to take a quick break.
We're going right to our phones: nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. That's nine zero one two six zero five nine two six.
Ladies and gentlemen, I want to encourage you to get a copy of my new book called "The Golden Age."

It can be delivered right to your home. But be sure to read the Golden Age. It's available wherever you buy your books. Have you ever wondered why some people seem to age slower, like they figured out some secret the rest of us missed?

All right, as promised, let's go to the phone lines. We will start the day in Hendersonville, North Carolina. Maria, hi, Maria. What's on your mind? Oh, hi, Tom.
I'm calling about election results, and I think that was the result of two things: one, the mass liberal migration to southern cities and states that are conservative, and two, it was about purging out those rhinos. They're elected to be public servants, but when they get to D.C. That it's cast aside.
So we have to ask ourselves, why are they rhinos? That that you know they're compromised most likely. Perhaps the Democrats have some information on them that they can be blackmailed with if they don't vote the way Democrats say, or maybe the cartels have have gotten to them. But and also. They didn't pass the Save America Act.
They didn't pass the Doig cuts. They are not doing things for America. And regarding JD, I've noticed over these last couple of years there's something very Mike Pence-ish about him that you know there seems to be an undercurrent that helped him. You know, Maria, it's interesting you brought up Mike Pence because as soon as I saw what he wrote, I immediately thought about Mike Pence, and of course, President Trump really considered Pence to be just a great betrayer of of him, and for for moving forward with the certification of the election. I'm I'm wondering behind the scenes what Trump really feels about JD Vance, but here's the problem: JD Vance is very Very close to the the Trump sons, and I think that's where the there's a dilemma, and there's a little bit of controversy.
I agree. All right, Maria. Thank you for that call. Maria does seem to think that the mass migration of people from liberal states to southern states has has been part of the problem, and I think that is a lot of it. I also think that the deliberate invasion of our country by illegals, many of those illegals vote Democrat and were placed in typically southern or conservative areas of the country, predominantly in the South.
I have. No doubt that that played some role in what happened yesterday. All right, nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. Let's go to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Jerry the Liberal. Jerry, you've got to be in a good mood.
Yeah, yeah, I am in pretty good mood. I'm a good mood for America. And you know the reason why Republicans lost? It wasn't because of all these Muslims in Texas. Texas has one cent Muslim population.
Tala Rica won by over a million votes. There's nowhere near that many Muslims. Even children were tolerated in Texas. He won because Republican party was rejected by the people of Texas, saying that running as a vegan was a really, really dumb thing to do. He's not even a vegan.
If that's your message, your message. Donald Trump cared about building a bubble economy. Bill cared about art. He didn't care about inflation. Didn't care about gas prices.
Cared about profiting billionaires off of Bitcoin. You know that's why Americans voted for Democrats. There's a reason they voted against Trump. Jerry, I'm going to I'm going to break this down. I I don't think you're wrong.
I I do think that when it came to Talarico, the reality is there were a lot of crossover votes, Republican defections that came as a result of Karl Rove and John Cornyn and the Bushes and people who would identify as establishment Republicans. And that was a protest vote against Paxton, which was really a protest vote against you know Donald Trump. Trump said that he. Wanted people to pretend like he was on the ballot, and i I understand why he said that.
Now he's saying he didn't say that, but he said it. And the problem is, it's it's okay if your approval ratings are through the roof, but they were not through the roof. And the American voters, Republican voters, are really frustrated with members of their party who constantly promise one thing and deliver something else, and they're they're just done. And I think that was a lot of what happened yesterday.
Well, yeah, I think Republicans should be frustrated. But it's not an embracement. But Jerry, you're you're not looking at the the American people embracing socialism or political Islam now. That's this was this was a punishment of Republicans.
Well, I mean, I think Republicans should be frustrated with Donald Trump in terms of people endorse. Ken Paxton was a horrible candidate, but he was loyal to Donald Trump. Trump endorsed some other horrible candidates. Ken Paxton was a crook. I mean, he's impeached by his own party.
You know, he barely wasn't removed as Attorney General of the State of Texas, and but he was loyal to Trump.
So this is the people that Trump is. We lost, Jerry. We're we've got a bad phone connection, but I I get the gist of what you're saying, and I'm not disagreeing with you at all on on this. I think it's you know I think what you're saying is true. I will say this that this was not some sort of a repudiation of the America First agenda that that's not what happened on Tuesday.
So we've got to if the Republicans want to win, they've got to re-embrace the agenda, and they have to deliver on the. Agenda. If we can do that, we're going to win in 2028. And if not, well, all you Baptists better go out there and find some burkas. All right, got to take a break here, folks.

This is the Todd Stern Show. Have you ever wondered why some people seem to age slower, like they figured out some secret the rest of us missed?
Well, it turns out someone actually did, and it starts with a melon. Yep, a melon. There's a rare French melon that stays fresh four times longer than the fruit you and I buy at the store. Scientists discovered it produces an extraordinarily high level of a super antioxidant called SOD, the kind that helps defend skin from The visible signs of aging, and get this: Meaningful Beauty partnered with world-renowned French cosmetic specialist Dr. Jean-Louis Sabat to capture that melon's youth-preserving power in a skincare line you can actually use every day.

From Memphis, Tennessee, it's America's favorite gun-toting, Bible-clinging, deplorable American. That's us. That's right. I love this American. All right, hello everybody.
Welcome to hour two of the Todd Sterns Radio Show. Very happy to have you with us today. Write down our telephone number. You will need this if you plan on calling in. And the question that we have for this hour.
Does John Thune deserve another chance in the Senate as leader of the Republicans? Our telephone number nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. That's nine zero one two six zero five nine. Two six. I want to go to the Patriot Mobile NewsMaker line.
Steve Gill, publisher of TriStarDaily dot com, joins us. Steve, good to have you with us.
So, you've had a chance to sort of step back and and analyze what happened. Do you think the Republicans have learned any lessons here? Hopefully, and and it's going to be a very painful lesson, not only for the Republicans but also for the entire country. And you asked about whether John Thune should still continue as the leader. If if John Thune was Japanese and had this disaster played out by him, he would already have a sword stuck in his stomach and be committing ritual suicide.
He deserves to be removed immediately and replaced. And I would say the same thing in the House. That that. Iran war, the gas prices, all of that had a huge contributing factor to what happened. But mainly, what happened is because Republicans had control of the House, the Senate, and the White House, and did not do what they said they would do if they were given that power.
There were starts and stops. Great, Doge is going to cut two trillion dollars. Didn't happen. They promised to do the Save Act, and interestingly, Todd, as we look around the country, while Democrats were getting elected in states. After state after state by by big margins, there were also numerous states that had a ballot initiative to increase election integrity to require photo ID for voting, and that was passing overwhelmingly.
At the same time, voters were casting votes for Democrats.
So, if the Senate had taken the Save Act seriously and done it, Republicans would have done much better yesterday.
Well, Steve, also there were four states: Washington, Arizona, Nebraska, and. Colorado that actually had initiatives to protect girls in sports, and all four of those states, those initiatives passed.
So the the the voters, I think. Were very deliberate in what they did, and they they're hoping this serves as some sort of a wake up call. You know, one of the things that's a little troubling, and you know how these things go. There's a lot of leaking coming out of the White House right now, but in some cases, people are going on the record, including Ralph Norman, the congressman from South Carolina. He said, talking about Darlene Graham, it really did not have to be this way.
Talking about Trump swooping in and basically crowning a Darlene Graham as the the nominee, Norman said, "Pride goeth before the fall. It's going to be a wake up call for the Republican Party." It turns out by August. Polls showed that Republicans had lost their edge with voters on the economy. Trump aides grew deeply concerned in August when internal polling showed voters overwhelmingly blamed Trump for inflation over Democrats. They also saw his poll numbers fall when gas prices rose.
Advisers, Steve, this is it. Advisers, including Newt Gingrich and Sean Hannity, and might I add, Todd Starnes, gently urged Trump to give more attention to affordability. Last night, Newt Gingrich said the party had lost the affordability fight. What do you make of all of that?
Well, I think that's exactly right, and I've talked to a lot of friends in South Carolina in the last twenty-four hours. They are absolutely furious that Trump forced Darlene Graham upon them, and and I think I've shared the the term people have used: "We don't need to have birthright senatorship," which is exactly what they played there, making her a senator because of her birthright with Lindsey Graham, and and that cost us a congressional race there. It cost us other low. Lower tier races in the state of South Carolina—they're absolutely furious because now they're stuck with this Democrat for the next six years. We're about to see the same thing play out in places like Kansas, in Texas, in in Mississippi, apparently.
So this is an epic, you know, bloodshed that was completely unnecessary. And I think the economy and and Trump's failure to listen and continued failure this week to say. The economy is going great.
Well, yeah. If you're some Wall Street billionaire and the stock market, well, until today, when New York Stock Exchange finally realized, oh wait, the Democrats are going to be in charge. If if they had had been talking with sympathy towards what Americans were feeling, rather than trying to convince us that the gas prices aren't that high, that bread doesn't cost that much, that the economy is booming, if they had listened instead of talking, I think we would have fared a lot better. I'm wondering, Steve, where where the Republicans go from here. Clearly, Ron DeSantis is is going to be running for the White House.
Others have been mentioned, Marco Rubio. I I think JD Vance probably. I don't think it's going to be good for him, to be perfectly honest with you. But I'm wondering where do things go now for the Republicans? You know, I think several things that I would point out.
You and I have talked for a long time. And you've pointed out on on your social media today, Christian voters stayed home. Again, typically, seventeen million Christian evangelical voters stay home during election seasons when the margins in many of these races, as we look to Mississippi, perhaps of three thousand votes, Christian evangelicals sitting on their rear ends rather than turning out and voting for those who reflect our values, our principles, our issues. They're the ones that cost us these races, and I think you pointed out in one of your social media posts about eighty. Seven percent of Muslim registered voters voted.
Only about seventeen percent of Christian evangelical voters voted. We're responsible as Christians for what this country is going to suffer, what we're going to suffer on on issues across the board. The second thing is, you know, you and I have been involved in this for a long time in media and politics. You dance with the one that brought you. And and what got Republicans in power, among other issues, was immigration.
President Trump has has secured the border and stopped the influx of illegals, but tens of millions are here, sucking up our economy, sucking up our tax dollars, creating crime issues, you know, affordability issues. And Republicans didn't talk about that issue enough, or if at all, in the last couple of months. And as you look at the exit polls, immigration was still one. One of the top issues on voters' minds.
Now, keep in mind, voters didn't vote for the Democrat policies. Their whole policy was: we hate Trump, we really hate Trump, we really, really, really hate Trump. That's not going to translate into a mandate of of issues. And and Republicans didn't counter that with what we were for, what we would do, what we had to, and what was coming up that would be done. And we just didn't make the case.
Steve Gill joining us on our Patriot Mobile Newsmaker line. You've got the incoming chair of House Oversight. His name is Congressman Robert Garcia. Telling telling Republicans to quote lawyer up, which on its face is illegal. I mean, he's they're basically admitting they're going to be using lawfare to go after Republicans again.
But again, this is you know, were the Republicans they they get what they asked for. You know, they did not deliver on the promises to the American people, and now they're screwed. And Todd, you and I have been talking about this for quite some time. I mean, we've been pointing out that if they got power, it would be all investigations, impeachment, all the time. I think that overreach is going to hurt them in two years.
But we've got some real pain in the next two years, and even then, it's going to be very difficult to reverse course and pick up six Senate seats to be able to start appointing federal judges and Supreme Court justices again. And it's not just the the chair of the Oversight Committee saying. Lawyer up, we're coming. You now have Jamie Raskin, one of the other top Democrats, who's saying we're coming after corporations, we're coming after individuals, we're coming after law firms who've been attached to Trump and the Trump administration. They are literally going to be targeting individuals with punitive measures, with revenge as their driving force.
I don't think that's what voters voted for yesterday, even in the states where, again, in Texas, they elected one lady who'd been convicted of a felony. And cannot actually serve, but they were just voting lockstep for Democrats across the board. But I don't think people were voting for the next two years of vindictive, petty partisanship and prosecution from the Democrats.
So they will pay a price as well. See, we're going to pay a price in the meantime. Real quick, I'm about Tennessee. Marsha Blackburn. You know, they had projected she was going to win by seventy points.
She won by two, and Democrats made some big gains in. The state house, they they knocked off a sitting Republican congressman, Scott DeJarlais. I mean, overall, it was it was a great night for Republicans in Tennessee compared to other other states. But I'm wondering, are are we seeing the rise of the Democrat Party here in Tennessee? I don't think in any substantive and and permanent sort of way.
You did see in Rutherford County, one of the fastest growing counties in the state, where you've seen a big influx of of immigrants, some legal, a lot illegal. You have a large university, Middle Tennessee State University, there that now has over thirty thousand students, and many of those students are registering to vote in Rutherford County. Three state house legislators were defeated in Rutherford County alone. In Tennessee, the Democrats flipped six seats.
Now Republicans still have a supermajority, but if the Democrats pick up four more seats in the state house, that supermajority is lost, and they have a lot more leverage in Tennessee policy. I think things will flip back in two years if Tennesseans and if Republicans nationally do what we need to do to keep our focus on the issues that matter, rather than some of the foreign wars and and foreign issues that President Trump. Has been so focused on over the last couple of years. All right, Steve, we're going to have to leave it there. TriStarDaily dot com, ladies and gentlemen, go check out Steve's great website.

All right, thank you for taking my call. I actually been trying to call, get in for the last two days, but time has gotten away from me. But obviously, I mean, we got to talk about the midterms. Um. Granted, I was happy with how the midterms went.
It it was a it wasn't a blue wave. It was more like a blue tsunami wrapped in a F five hurricane. It all I could think about during that night, for one, was when they called both the House and the Senate like before like eight thirty. For one, that that threw me for a loop. I was like, wait a minute, hold up, because I was prepared to go.
I was prepared for like an all night or at least until one, but. What blew my mind more than anything, but one thing I kept thinking about was: imagine somebody telling you, not not even thirty or twenty, but two years ago, Texas is going to go blue, South Carolina is going to go blue, Kansas. I would have, I would have said, okay, who's your dealer? Because I need that's that's why I need to get in touch with him because he's giving you some good stuff. But, but I'm I'm I'm just being honest.
No, no, no. I I hear you. I hear you. And and so, but that all. But after everything was settled, the dust settled.
I mean, we're still counting votes. This election is still like not technically over.
So we're we're still going. But all I can think about is, as far as the Republican Party, what do you do for 2028 right now? Because now. As as of right now, the the the presidential election for twenty twenty eight is currently underway. As far as who's as far as maneuvering, who's going to you know who's going to be what?
Who's who's the front runner? Who's sure? You know, fundraising. You know that that that's a big deal. You know, and even though whether we want to believe it or not, Talerico.
El Said, Ossoff, they're all they're all front runners for twenty twenty eight.
Well, I would say Ossoff is probably the front runner. I don't. Talerico is too young, and he's going to have to make a name for himself in the Senate. I would I would suggest that Assad may be the guy, if if party leaders are okay with going with a white guy, a straight white guy. I mean, that that's going to be a problem for some of the DSA crowd and the Democrat Party, who truly believe that there needs to be a candidate of color, and it probably needs to be a female.
My argument for you Democrats aren't is you tried Hillary, that didn't work, and you tried Kamala, that didn't work. I you know I don't know. But I think Assad may be the guy. But my question is, who's on who on the Republican side is going is going to be that guy? Because here is the thing: after Tuesday, we saw that Trump Trump's Trump's agenda is unpopular, and it was soundly it was soundly rejected.
By places that have went solidly red for a generation, and in some cases several generations. Arnez, let me let me jump in here because I do want to answer your question, and and we are coming up on the break, but I but we've got some time here. I think right now that. Ron DeSantis is going to be running for president, and he will be the front runner for right now. And the reason I say that is because Florida did win; they did what needed to be done in Florida.
I don't think this is a repudiation of the Trump agenda. I think it's a repudiation of the fact that Trump veered off of the agenda with this war in in Iran.
So again, I I truly believe that the Republicans were actually. Punishing their party for not doing what they promised to do on the campaign trail, so I still think it's a winning formula. You, I mentioned DeSantis, probably Marco Rubio. I would suggest that Glenn Youngkin, the former popular governor of Virginia, he could be in the mix as well. But I'm thinking right now, DeSantis has the is the odds on favorite.
Well, I can't say Youngkin because isn't Youngkin like isn't he isn't he seventy? I'm not sure. No, no, no. He's a he's a younger guy. Yeah, he's a younger guy.
So okay.
So and the thing is, and and and I'm gonna let you go with this. But my question is, considering how the elections went, how close, how much, how much of the MAGA agenda is the is the candidate for 2028 on the Republican side? Going to rely? How much of that agenda is he going to rely on to hopefully keep the White House in the Republican Party? That's a fair question.
I think the MAGA movement itself is is waning. I think there will be parts of it that are kept alive, but ultimately, I think that ends when President Trump leaves office. I really do, Arnez. And and look, there's going to be a lot of soul searching on the Republican side of the aisle, but the Democrats, Arnez, they're going to go slap crazy. They're going to go.
They're going to way overstep the mark, and I have no doubt about that. Given the opportunity, some. Of them would actually put all of us in jail.
So that's that's that that is what I'm hoping happens because I think the voters are going to step back in and and write you know write the ship. Arnez, I got to run, but thank you for that call. Look, I'm conciliatory. I mean, yeah, the things we we botch this thing. What do you want me to say?
All right, nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. I also believe that it's it's all salvageable. It's all fixable. Nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. More of your calls coming up next.
All right, welcome back to the Todd Sterns Radio Show. I've got some analysis up on my website over Fox News Channel. These are really shocking numbers, but I think they've lost more than a quarter of their audience. People are. People are turning off Fox News Channel, and I'm wondering if any of you have have done that.
Have you stopped watching Fox News? Down 27 percent from October of last year to where we are now. And I I shared a few thoughts on this in in our piece we've got up at toddsterns.com. Our great crew writing this content and. I I loved the years that I worked at Fox because the team really was focused on fighting every single day for the values that make made our nation great.
But most of those people are gone now. They have long since either retired, they've been fired, contracts were not renewed. My contract was not renewed, and the new era of the network is really more about short skirts and movie star looks. And less about conservative and Christian values. And one of the things I've noticed about the Fox, the new Fox Network, is that many of the new hires are conservative in name only.
They get paid to be conservative. They are, and there just are not that many principled conservatives left in the building now. Also, they pander to evangelical Christian voters, and there's absolutely zero authenticity when it comes to the Christian faith on that network. And it is so cringy every time. And you know what I'm talking about?
These anchors will just casually name drop Jesus, while many of those same people are engaged in behavior that would repulse our Lord. And and these viewers, they know when somebody is not being authentic. I mean, it's all performative, and that's a that's a sad situation there. But again, President Trump blaming what happened Tuesday on Fox News. I don't know about that, but I can tell you that people are turning off Fox nine zero one two six zero five nine two six Our telephone number.
I want to bring into the conversation Chad Conley, the president of Faith Wins. Chad, we've been analyzing some of the numbers coming in. Seventeen percent of evangelical voters engaging in the political process on Tuesday. Very, are you disappointed in those numbers? Oh man, great to be with you.
Obviously, I'm disappointed, but I'm actually not totally surprised. I told you when we were together, personally, and I try not to say it on the air as much because we were working on it. Right, we were telling people Christians ought to vote no matter what, no matter who's on the ballot. It's it's always the choice of two human beings. Look at the policies and the outcomes, and people are just so attracted to the glitz or the ads or who says the.
Happy talk, and let's face it: a lot of the unfulfilled promises from the Trump administration are things that suppressed the conservative vote. They feel like, my goodness, we can't get the Save America Act passed. I heard that just about everywhere. The ongoing war in Iran, the gas prices—people, those things affect people. We fought it every day, but you know what?
I'm encouraged. I mean, I had some. I talked to you from a church in Pennsylvania last week, and we talked. About the fundamentals not being done, I told you my reservation was: I don't see the party, the committees, the campaigns doing any authentic outreach to the base. I talked to a donor who said that Senator Thune told them, "Well, we didn't pass the Save America Act because nobody wants it, but the base." What there's it's like an eighty percent number, but I think that's the prevailing thought, and we lose the majority because we don't push conservative principles that we promised.
I think that's what happened, Chad. I'm curious about South Carolina. I know you're you're also the former chair of the South Carolina Republican Party. What happened there? Stunned.
Well, the last numbers I got, Todd, and it was a big part of our confidence was the last numbers of the most trusted pollster we use in South Carolina said Alan Wilson for governor was going to win by fifteen.
Well, he won by like seven, and and we we felt like behind the scenes because Darlene's an unknown because Annie Andrews is given the happy talk that I mentioned because she campaigned for eighteen. Months because Darlene was on a steep learning curve. Alan Wilson had to win by ten. That was what we were saying to each other behind the scenes. He won by less than eight, and I think that sealed the fate for Darlene.
The other thing that was interesting: the split ticket. We really haven't had much of that in South Carolina, but I'll tell you the way that happened. A lot of people thought Darlene was going to be a placeholder, and then when she started running, it it created a chasm. You and I talked about that too offline, and I think it was very surprising. Darlene won Greenville.
I mean, Andy Andrews won Greenville County. Todd, she won Berkeley and Dorchester County. Those are deep red districts, but it wasn't just South Carolina; it was really across the nation. I think it was a big frustration with the unfulfilled promises, the gas prices, stuff like that. And Andy Andrews and Democrats did a good job of capitalizing.
Well, Chad Conley joining us, President of Faith Wins. You know, we're looking at the numbers coming out of Texas. We were so happy earlier this year. The State Board of Education they came out and they put the Bible back into curriculum there in the state of Texas. But now the Democrats in Texas gained enough power to literally reshape parts of the state for decades.
They're suggesting that Democrats are going to take over the Board of Education and will probably do away with the mandatory Bible readings in public school. I mean, Chad, this is literally all over the country, save I believe Florida and perhaps Tennessee, which we we were very. Lucky because a lot of those races could have been lost. Yeah, I listen. I think in a bigger sense, I was in Texas doing Christian TV Tuesday.
They swept Texas. Kansas hasn't had a Democrat senator in almost a hundred years. But I was I was in front of a TV audience on some shows, and I asked them. I said, "How many of you know that violent crime in the cities as at is at a nineteen hundred year nineteen hundred level? Nineteen hundred.
Nobody knew it. How many you know that President Trump's policies have created the lowest?" Poverty rate in ever recorded ever, they didn't know it, and I think a lot of that comes because in President Trump's zeal to get through the the media block, he talked about a lot of stuff, and it gave ammo to the media to talk about anything but the good news. And Reagan was a hero of mine and yours because he learned how to break through by staying on message. And we know President Trump's trying to cover all these bases. He talks two hours at a time, and it.
Opens him up to them finding the shiny object to go chase. Listen, this was an epic, epic defeat. But the pendulum always swings. I promise you, these lefties are going to go so nuts. There's going to be so much buyer's remorse.
I think it's going to actually bode well for the future. God's on the throne. Our friend Bob McEwen's line: We might find out that God knows what He's doing. Jimmy Carter gave us Ronald Reagan. Twenty twenty gave us twenty twenty four.
This isn't over. We got to stay in the fight. We got to realize what's at stake, and we got we got an education thing to do, especially the younger people who've bought into all this nonsense. Oh well, no doubt about that. And and I also think that the White House and this is really going to have to.
I don't even know if anybody can have this conversation with the president, but I I think we're getting too much of the president. And it needs; they've got to, they've just got to reel it back in. People are exhausted, and so again, I think the president and the problem is he's out there so much. When there are big items that need to be addressed, it's all watered down, it's diluted.
So, Chad, I don't know; you may completely disagree with me on that. That's fine. I just feel like we're seeing too much Trump. I'm a million percent with you. I had a pastor tell me the day I was with you.
Apparently, Trump mentioned this rapper who's with him, and I don't even I don't know rappers, but there's a a rapper who was with him the day I talked to you a week ago today, who said Trump's got a great story to tell, and he's talking about a rapper's big behind. Remember that? Oh, yeah, Nicki Minaj. Nicki Minaj. I said, and I said something to him like, "What you just said is." Trump's zeal to get out there, out ahead of the media because they're not covering the good stories.
He's talking about so many things. He spent sixty seconds in Rock Hill, South Carolina, the other day on the economy, and he spent more time on things that don't matter. I'll tell you another thing, and I, I think people ought to pull this thread. Todd, remember when they wanted to redistrict last spring? I was on a couple phone calls with leaders in South Carolina, and we saw the White House map, and they were like, "This is a bad." Map, guys, and it was from the White House political shop.
South Carolina resisted. Texas and Florida bought into it. You remember that? There were nine seats drawn for stronger Republicans. Do you know the Democrats took?
I think eight of those Tuesday. Eight of those.
So they got too cute by half. Then and fought the redistricting battle in the middle of a term instead of doing the fundamentals. Yeah, that's a big deal. Yeah, that goes to the White House political shop. I think that's malfeasance, brother.
So again, and I think the good news here is this is not a repudiation of the agenda. This was a reaction to the Republicans not delivering on the agenda. I completely, I completely agree with that. I, I told you that story about Thune and the the donor we were with, who had said that, and that was Thune's response. And you know, Senator Thune said, "We don't have the votes." He's like, "We have fifty three." You don't even bring it up.
And I do think part of that is the ripple effect of President Trump recruited against some of those incumbents, and they just decided, "I'm not going to do anything to help." And they literally were more concerned about their seat than they were for the country. We we missed an incredible. Opportunity having all the levers of power, it may take us some time to get it back. But listen, these people are crazy. They're they're going to do nuts o things.
I don't know if you saw that DSA lady who's been all over Twitter. Forty nine trillion. She won't say that's the number of their programs, but that's where they're headed is to cripple the nation. We just got to have a lot more people get educated and figured out. And believe me, I'm doubling down.
Dana and I came to the beach to take a little bit of a rest, but our teams are doubling down. I'm more confident in the. Pastors, we found doing the work of the future and telling people this is a big deal. Maybe sometimes you got to hit bottom a little bit before you bounce back. All right, Chad, we're going to have to leave it there, my friend.
Always, as always, I appreciate your great analysis. Thanks, now. Love you, brother. All right, there we have it: nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. I do want to go to the phones.
Quinn has been holding on for a while, listening to us in Crosby, Texas, on Patriot Talk nine twenty. All right, Quinn, how are you guys holding together there?
Well, listen, I'm about puke. Very disappointed. I could never dream. I lived in Texas in 1974. I have never dreamed the Texas turned blue.
That's because we take things for granted.
Now, here's the thing: the Trump mislaid a point when he ran. Like he go to rally, he didn't explain to the people why do we have a rent war. Nobody run for Joe Biden. He will end the gas is five dollars something a gallon, and the eggs is seven dollar a dozen, and milk almost six dollar a gallon. But no, the the congressman went out for the rally.
They who never bought it up, except on the new. Go back to back new. I cancel Fox News and Dulat, Lutat that far. I stop watching them. I'm a strictly New Mat and O N.
But it is here. The people vote, vote for Democrat this time because they want a free abortion. Because Gray Evans do not agree on that.
So he put a stop to that. But I don't, I don't know. People explain to me why Texas go to blue. The only thing I would think of: the people want everything for free. There's nothing for free in this country.
You have to work for. These young people get to brainwash. They have a rule of waiting. They have a rule of waiting. They go cut the party on.
It's now. I have one thing for Caro. He needs to move on, change the party, go to Democrat. He don't belong to be Republican. Ocean Corning, hatred.
I know his whole family do not vote for the Republican. I'm not new. I don't know that's a fact, but that's what I believe, and also Bush.
Well, Quinn, I know you're a great American patriot. You came here many, many years ago as a legal immigrant, and have really lived an American dream kind of story. And we appreciate you calling in because your opinion really, truly. Matters as we watch the rise of communism in in this country, and it is it's going to be a very very difficult road if we allow that to fester. Quinn, I've got to run, but thank you for that call.
Hang tight, everybody. We'll be right back. All right, let's go to Waterloo, Iowa, Mister Independent, on the line. What's going on, Mister Independent? First of all, so much for the Dow post pop.
You know, at midterms, the Dow is down almost sixteen hundred. The Nasdaq's down thirteen hundred.
So so much for that, Todd. Yeah, fair enough. Fair enough. Yeah, and then the other thing is the thing you're thinking of. Remember when Fox?
Remember what they used to call it, Todd? Before I get to my question here, but you remember what they used to call Fox? No, I don't. What did they used to call Fox? Fair and balanced.
Yeah, that's true. They did. Yeah, they did. When Hannity and Combs, fair and balanced. Anyway, Todd, the other thing is, Mr.
Trump was here, and and I told you I voted for you. Remember, probably when I told you I voted for him three times, and then he changed in the second term. He really did. He changed like in the third term. But he he hardly ever talked about the economy.
He just talked about himself, making comments, you know, like rear ends and all that. I don't understand it, Todd. What's up with that? And today alone, you know what he said today. You know what he said today, Mr.
Independent. You can we can do this. You can ask all the questions for the next five minutes, or you can just get to your point. What's your point? I'm just asking, Todd.
Did you know what he said today?
Okay, and I'll get off. No, I don't know what he said today. What did he say? He's talking about rebuilding the White House again.
Okay. Great.
Okay. Okay. And then I talked to you when I told you about those seven hundred cars, and I told you the writing was on the wall, but nobody listened to me. I talked to so many people; they were feeling pain, and they were saying Trump doesn't get it. He don't get us.
He doesn't understand us. But did anybody listen? No. All right, great. Thank you for the call, ladies and gentlemen.
I just, you know, let me let me explain how this works. When you call in, it is not to ask question after question after question after question. If you've got it, if you've got a point to make, make the point. Otherwise, it wastes people's time, and we have a lot of folks wanting to come on the program and talk about issues.
So, again, if you're a if you're a liberal or an independent or whatever, get to the point. It's really not all that difficult. It's really not. All right, nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. That's nine zero one two six zero five nine two six.
Coming up in the next hour of the program, we've got some audio from Byron Donalds. Also, you folks in Georgia. Your, you pretty much all, I think all but one of the top leadership positions in the state are going to be controlled by black women, and they're talking about diversity, but there there's no there's no white people, so I guess it's very diverse. Diversity means no white people, and so you guys in Georgia have a lot of diversity. You've got a new ag commissioner.
Who wants to turn your state, Georgia, into South Africa? And we're going to play some audio from her coming up after the break as well. Nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. This is the Todd Stern Show. Broadcasting coast to coast and border to border from Memphis, Tennessee.
That's us. That's right. I love this America. Well, hello everybody! Welcome to hour three of the big show.
I want to go to the phone lines. We had a fella holding over during the the top of the hour news break. His name is Charles from Gainesville, Georgia. Listening to us on WDUN, and Charles wanted to bring up an issue regarding voting fraud. Charles, what's going on?
Hey, Todd, I just wanted to say thanks for what you're doing, and I just have one concern. I mean, what have they done about the casting and counting of these votes? From my perspective, I haven't seen any. Real change, and I'm not convinced that our voting systems are proper. And that's that's all.
I'll hang up and listen.
Well, Charles, before you before you hang up, is there something specific?
So when it comes to voting fraud, is there something specific that you're concerned about?
Well, specifically the machines that we use, but no specific details. I just, I just don't believe that that the votes that have been casted and or counted are are actually being done appropriately.
So, do you believe that that that if it had been a fair election?
So, I'm assuming your premise is that there was voting fraud, rampant voting fraud.
So, you believe that without the fraud, Republicans would have had a there would have been a what a red tsunami. You know, I can't say that. I just have to go by my gut feeling, and my gut feeling says that the voting systems in this country have not been resolved for for the good.
Well, and that may be the case. I, I can tell you, there have been no reports, no allegations coming from really anywhere of of substantive, you know, voting fraud, and it would almost be next to impossible unless there was a vast conspiracy. Involving every single state in the union, and I say that because these are the midterm elections we're talking about.
So these were all localized issues in many cases. It's not to say that the previous issues have not been remedied, because that's true; they they have not. I I still think though that this is just a good old fashioned butt weapon, Charles. I think at the end of the day, the Republicans they've been asking for this. You're right.
I'm not going to argue that point. Yeah, I it's it's frustrating. And and look, the fact of the matter is, in places like Cal, let me just say this: in California, just hundreds of millions of dollars was invested in the Steve Hilton race. And I'm going to tell you, look, I didn't vote for the guy because I don't live in California, but. I feel somewhat liberated now to say what is what is on my mind about all these folks because we have been selecting very, very bad candidates, and I know everybody thinks, "Oh, Steve Hilton." He was on Fox News.
Great.
About two million people watch Fox News in the entire country. And a good many of them were not watching Steve Hulten's program. That does not make someone a good candidate just because they're on Fox News Channel.
So you know it's it's frustrating, no doubt about it. Charles, I I feel your pain, but in this go around, I'm not seeing any reports of of actual voter fraud. And and honestly, it's interesting that Trump hasn't brought it up because normally he would bring something like that up almost immediately. But even the president President is keeping pretty quiet about that. Charles, thank you for the call.
Nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. That's nine zero one two six zero five nine two six.
Look, all I can do on this program is provide guidance and advice. Am I am I an expert? Yes, I am. I've been doing this a very long time. I'm a pretty good read of the American people.
I hear what you guys are talking about. I hear what's on your mind. And I know many of you have been very frustrated for a very long time, and I convey that to the elected leaders who reach out, who ask of you know for my opinion, and I appreciate it when they do that. And I'm very honest and forthcoming. I remember several years ago, the House Freedom Caucus invited me to come up and speak at a breakfast.
They wanted to know what the people were thinking, and I told them.
Now, if you ask my opinion, and you don't take that advice or that guidance, well, ultimately, that's on you. That's not on me. That's on that's on the the people in Congress.
So we're going to get through this together, ladies and gentlemen. No doubt about it, and I'm feeling pretty good and pretty jubilant that we're going to do that together.
So look, there is a woman, and she is the new agriculture commissioner. She's one of a number of black women who were elected in Georgia, and she's out there, and she wants to. She wants to turn Georgia into South Africa.
So basically, she's got a program where she's going to give money to black farmers and not white farmers.
So, if you are a if you are a white farmer in Georgia, you won't be getting any any money from this gal. Her name is Catherine Arnold. She defeated Tyler Harper to become the new Agriculture Commissioner, and here is what she had to say. That we were talking about and making at the Black Print, yes, ma'am. There we have the budget to allocate funds for our black farmers, for our beginning farmers, for people who have a disconnect.
Like I was telling you about Richland, Georgia. Yes, ma'am. My great great grandmother, she had land down there. I didn't know about it until I started farming. It got caught up in heirs' property and.
It's sold now. Yeah.
So we, the re-education piece, we have to dedicate resources to re-educate our community so they understand what to do.
So there you have it. And I, I hate it for all you white farmers out there. Good luck to you. But you know, congratulations if you're a black farmer. Then the government's going to bend over backwards to help you in Georgia.
But all you white farmers, nope, not gonna, not gonna happen. Not gonna happen. Nine zero one two six zero five nine two six is our telephone number. You think I am making this up? No, it's.
I mean, you just heard it for yourself. That's nine zero one two six zero five nine two six.
Let's go to Mike listening to us on W I N C, our great affiliate there in Virginia. Hi, Mike. What's on your mind? Hey, I was calling in. I just found it very interesting.
Read an article, I believe it was yesterday, that pointed out that there were five of the Democrats who were elected were actually pastors. It's been a long time since faith has been a part of the Democratic platform, and Evidently, it's working, and I was wondering your opinion. I think that is a platform that will continue into the future.
Well, it's interesting, Mike. These are, yeah, they are ministers. I'm not quite sure you could call them ministers of the gospel. These are radical leftists, so I would say that from the liberal progressive. Churches, this is a moment for celebration, and and to your point, and you're right.
There were five, and I want to run through those if I can, Mike. The the most prominent two: Adam Hamilton, who is a radical pastor of a church in Kansas, megachurch that actually hosts drag drag shows, drag queen story hour, things of that nature. Adam Hamilton, a Democrat in Kansas, also a James Telefrico, who is the president. Terian seminarian who believes that God is non-binary and that the Bible promotes abortion. There is a woman by the name of Sarah Garriott from Iowa, and she is a Lutheran minister who was elected to the House.
James Lindsay, a Presbyterian minister from the state of Iowa, elected to the House, and a guy by the name of Frederick Haynes, who is the pastor of A church in Texas, he was elected to the House of Representatives as well.
So, those are the five. And so, you're you're correct, Mike. What I find fascinating about this is that the progressives are very politically active, right on the church side. The evangelicals, not so much anymore. And I think that's one of the reasons why you're seeing these radical progressive pastors elected.
I I would agree with that, and and I think that it's going to become even more so that that message of let's say faith or or the gospel or Christianity is is going to continue to. Is going to continue to resonate with folks that are maybe feeling a little bit alienated by the Republican Party.
So I was just curious your opinion on it, and I appreciate it. All right, well, Mike, thank you for calling in. Thank you for for listening. Nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. You know, this Haines guy did not answer.
He's a Baptist preacher in Texas. Did not answer about whether or not he is pro life. Seems to me if you're a pastor and you're not pro life, then you're a minister of the devil. That's just my opinion, though. Let's go to Bartlett, Tennessee.
Mark, listening to us on K W A M. Hi, Mark. What's on your mind today? Hey, Todd. Yeah, I listened to you with Charlie Hatcher this morning.
I believe it was right. Oh, yeah. Oh. Yes, I mean this guy will not answer a question. No, he will not.
He will not answer a question, and and the Republicans are just—I don't know what they think their job is. But you know, I'm a regular guy. I'm just a regular guy. If I was running, you ask me what I do, I'll tell you what I—I would do every night. Hold on just a second, Mark.
Mark, hold on a second. You're you're breaking up a little bit, so I'm going to put you on a hold, and we're going to get that call because I want to hear what you have to say.
So hang tight, and we're going to get that worked out. We had Charlie Hancher, who just new guy just got elected to Congress, and we asked him very simple questions: Who you going to support for leadership?
Well, you know, I don't know. Haven't really thought about that. What do you think the first big thing is you guys are going to do?
Well, not really. I don't know. Still trying to figure all that out. You're just like, dude. All right, Mark.
I think we got you back. Go, go ahead and finish your thought. Yeah, I mean, I would. I'm a very plain person. Look, you ask me what I'm going to do.
I'm going to try to get us off of the global market for our oil prices. I'm going to build prison. I'm, you know, it's it's real simple. If but if you don't want to answer the question, you're a liar. You just want the job for the job, so that you can get rich.
I don't blame President Trump. I blame all the Republicans that went there and didn't do anything. They didn't do anything they said they would do. Look, I still voted for him. I still will vote for him.
But it's so frustrating to have them go up there and absolutely, when they got the power, do nothing. Mark, I'm with you. I look, I did the same thing. I voted for him. Doesn't mean I'm happy about it, but I can promise you this, Mark.
They're never getting a single penny from me. I've learned my lesson on that. I'm not going to give them a penny either. And Todd, I got to say, I won a book. Your new book, The Golden Age, and it came today.
It is beautiful. It was a hardback book. It has a beautiful dust jacket. I haven't had a chance to even open it, but. Man, what a beautiful book!
Well, Mark, thank you for that, and I'll I'll tell you the designer, a guy by the name of Joseph Huntley, and just a great patriot, but an incredibly brilliant artist, and I think he just did a phenomenal job. The book is halfway decent. If I'm honest, I'm just kidding. It's actually a good book. You'll enjoy it, Mark.
Can't wait to read. All right, thank you. I thank you for being optimistic, and I'm glad I'm getting here. Liz speaks now to the president. Everybody's mad at the president for being who he is, and I'm not.
I'm mad at a do nothing Republican. No, I hear you. I hear you. Look, I am a little frustrated with the president, but that that doesn't mean I don't like him. I don't support him.
You know, it's okay. You're gonna. I'm sure he gets frustrated with a bunch of folks, probably me too. But I just want him to succeed, and I don't want him. I I just did not want him to get impeached.
And that's what they're going to do, and that bothers me because this man put it all on the line for his country, and I don't see anybody else in politics, at least in modern political history, who has literally put everything on the line for for this country.
So I get why he gets frustrated. I get why he says what he says and does what he does. But we're just all trying. There are people out there who only care about him. They're not in it for themselves, and I just happen to be one of those people.
Never asked him for a job, never asked him for a single penny, and you know I I I never will. I you know there's no need for me to. I just I just want him to to succeed, and and that's all. Mark, thank you for the call. Nine zero one two six zero five nine two six.
Let's go to Kentucky, Pastor John. All right, Pastor John, what say you? Why the giggle? Is you think I want to say something crazy, Todd?
Something that I normally don't say. That's crazy. Yes, absolutely, I do.
So go ahead, Pastor.
Well, Todd, well, Todd, I'm going to tell you something. You know, from you just talked about Georgia, right? I was listening. Correct me if I'm wrong. I always love it because when you correct me, you correct me in a loving way.
A lot of the rural areas also voted for the Democrats. Am I correct on that? Yeah, yeah.
Now this is what I'm going to say to them. You guys, better get ready to have your property taxes raised in Georgia. Those farmers, those Caucasian farmers, they're going to try to take your land. You mentioned South Africa. See what they tried to do to them in South Africa.
Every voter that voted and turned their state. Be prepared for the worst. You are like the disobedient children of Israel that got kicked off at God because you couldn't get your satisfaction done right away. And look exactly what happened. You wandered in the wilderness for forty freaking years, and Moses one time just threw his arms up in the air and said, "Lord, I'm tired of them." And then God wasn't said, "Well, let me strike them down." Moses said, "No, don't show them mercy." And God showed them mercy, but He had to do something to that nation before they straighten their butts out.
Todd, you're a man of faith. We got two. We got till January third, twenty twenty-seven. You better hang on to your bloomers because there's some serious crap that's coming down the pike on January third, twenty twenty-seven. And Todd, you warned everybody.
I know you're frustrated with the Republicans, but let me tell you something. That tax cut saved our family. That tax cut, we were able to do things. And if you look at the statistics under Biden, compare the compare the inflation rates. You didn't.
You folks did not study the issues, and what you did, you you voted by your emotions, and now you just screwed yourselves. I love you, Todd.
Well, God bless you, Pastor John. And look, I I do appreciate your calls. I really do. I will say this: that rule Georgia did come out. I mean, it's all the the big question was North Georgia and South Georgia, and whether or not they would come out specifically South Georgia.
And they did. But the reality is, the the Democrat vote surged, and it was just it was too much. And look, Rick Jackson spent over two hundred million. Dollars of his own money to try and and get himself elected, and it it was not enough. It just was not enough.
I'll say this about the Jackson campaign: they did a lousy communications job. To be perfectly blunt about it, they did not let that guy get out and do the interviews and do the things that he needed to do to you know to let people know who he was and what he was really all about, and Again, it was just a really lousy. They ran a lousy campaign, and you know that's on that's on Rick Jackson and his team. Oh, got to take a break. We'll be right back.
All right, welcome back. Good to have you with us.
So I want to try to illustrate for you the just how. Dangerous! These left-wing radicals are, ladies and gentlemen. Go back to a survey we shared with you, and I've got this in my book, the the Golden Age, talking about the the frightening number of Democrats who believe that political violence is okay. That's that's what concerns me.
We're going to play this coming up after after the break here. Just some insane audio. To illustrate that point, also we're going to get to your calls nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. Again, that's nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. Hang tight, everybody.
We will be right back. All right, not even forty-eight hours, folks—barely thirty-six. Congressman Jamie Raskin, who is the chair of, will be the incoming chair of House Judiciary Committee, has promised in an interview that they that the Democrats will advance on. On a procedure that will lead to universal gun registration, so all of you Second Amendment folks, this coming from the National Association for Gun Rights, that House Judiciary Chair Jamie Raskin promising that universal gun registration would be one of their top priorities in the upcoming Congress. All right, let's go to the phones here.
Nine zero one two six zero five nine two six, Colin in Georgia, listening to us on W D U N. Colin, I understand that you're a young minister. Is that right? Yes, sir. How you doing there, Todd?
I'm doing well. Thank you for asking, Colin. This is actually really cool because I wasn't expecting this, but man, I live in North Georgia. We just lost the election, you know, for governor. And my generation is so screwed up that they really do need Jesus Christ.
But also the election and and just people in general. I live I live I live up in the mountains. Like in my county, only fifty four percent people showed up to the voting booth, and that's like I don't even understand why that people grip and complain about how this country is turning. You got to do your God given right with God give us. I don't understand, man, and that's where like I even got family that's so far left.
They think they're right. You know what I'm saying? Wow, but it's it's it's terrible. But like I was listening to the brother that was from Kentucky. He's right.
You know, like we need to turn our hearts towards God because not just an election, not just a person, but like as a whole nation, because. We we we're in the we're in the we're in the battle right now, and like sometimes you know I look at Jesus, he had wounds in his hands. I know we gotta go through some things, but it's just I'm speechless. And now, Colin, Colin, are you the senior pastor at the church? No, I'm actually, I actually am one of the preachers there.
Yes, sir, I'm actually, actually go, I actually go to my church. It's actually Jensen Franklin's in Gainesville.
Well, I I'd like to imagine that you know that I know Jensen, and he's certainly not afraid to talk about these issues from the pulpit. You know, I I think there has to be an education effort in the church, and much like you know, I'm Southern Baptist, and we have Sunday school, and you know, Sunday school is a great thing. And I'm wondering, you know, through a discipleship class or Sunday school, we've got to start educating Christians about their responsibilities and obligations. As American citizens, absolutely, absolutely.
Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt you, but you're exactly right. Like, we got to do our part, and they—they say you got to put a little skin in the game, and and you know, I—I got a lot of lot of people around my age in the twenties. They don't even care. They don't even know what bathroom they're going to go into, and it's a shame, grace, man. And and they really need the Lord.
But yeah, I I love the Christ. I love people, and.
Well, there's people that shed their blood for this nation, and I just I fear for my own children because, like, they're gonna grow up in this society that brainwashed in universities and stuff. And we need to get back to that Bible-based, just just ABCs, just just simple faith.
So I wanted to share that with you. I know it's not a lot, but I appreciate what you stand for and. Down here in Georgia, so just keep us in your prayers, Colin. You know what? You are in my prayers, and God bless you.
I mean, you're on the front lines there. I mean, what you're doing matters so very much, and I have to imagine you're going to be so influential, you know, with young people and and and getting them to to understand. I'm actually working on a I don't want to call it a curriculum, but I am working on a new book project that is specifically designed for high school. High school kids and college kids to really encourage and inspire them to to take ownership of this country. You know, Ronald Reagan said, "Freedom's not passed along in the bloodstream; every generation has to fight for freedom." So I'm I'm hoping this little project I've been working on is is going to do that.
Colin, God bless you, and thank you, and you give us a holler back one of these days. I want to play some audio here. This we're going to do the guy first, and then we'll do the gal, Dylan. You actually heard this? Can you believe that?
That's chilling. What we're about to hear is is downright chilling. Pretty bad. I can't believe someone actually is speaking like this about people. And one of them has well over, I think, 1.9 million likes on on the TikTok, as they call it.
I mean, so that's that's why this is dangerous. This is a leftist talking about the election. Take a listen. Trials, Democrats, Nuremberg trials for all these people. You have not been hired to come in and do your best.
You have been hired to come in and do your worst. And understand, this is the last vote you get until we see Epstein file convictions. All right, Abdul, take those Wolverine claws I got you and park them under Stephen Miller's chin. I want to see Jared Kushner's size five loafers swinging and dangling. All right.
If Elon Musk is alive at Christmas, it has been a failure. All right. We need to build Guantanamo Bay Two on Epstein Island. All right. Break ground on that today.
Guantetamo Island. Build it. Start sinking posts right now today. This is what we want to see. We don't want.
I swear to God, if you come at us and say you're going to let bygones be goodbygones and we need to move on and heal as a country, I swear. To God, we want justice. We want Judgment Day.
Now's the time. This is the last time we vote for you, unless you put belt to ass. We want Armageddon. We want justice. Judgment Day.
All right, that's what you've been hired to do. Go do it. Go to work. The celebrating that was for last night.
Now it's time to get to work. Go to work. Let's see it. That, ladies and gentlemen, is what we're fighting against in in this country. You will note that after the the the dramatic apocalypse that occurred, did any major American cities burn last night?
No. Did I'm sorry, did people rampage and pillage and plunder Dollywood last night? No, not at all. Dollywood's doing fine. What about Branson, Missouri?
Everybody doing okay over at Sight and Sound Theater. Yep, everybody's great. Nothing burned. Nothing got pillaged or plundered. Nothing got looted.
You think the Democrats would do the same? Of course not. But that's who these people are.
So now, what you're about to hear. This woman has more than nearly two million likes. Nearly two million likes on her post. And I will tell you, it appears. Appears.
That she is driving a Subaru, and she is in fact a woman of the lesbian persuasion. And I want you to listen to what she had to say. Here's the thing: I don't want impeachment. I don't want them to serve time. I want them taken into the city town square, hung from their ankles, and cut them from Christ.
All right, so I'll try to. You know, I had to go back and listen to what she said. There was kind of hard because she was screaming at us. She said she wanted to take all the conservatives—that's you people—and hang them from your ankles. From and gut you folks, gut you folks from groin to chain.
That's what she said, Dylan. I think she's serious about it too. Uh, yeah, that's terrifying. And lock her up, please. Like, don't let her just.
Yeah, that's terrible. We're going to have to have Secret Service on speed dial. Yeah, um, that's crazy, ladies and gentlemen. That's what we're dealing with. That's the evil.
The demonic evil that is in our country right now. All right, let's go to the phone lines. Bobby in Orangeburg, South Carolina. Bobby, what's on your mind? Yeah, we voted and we lost badly too because of Annie Andrews.
Because darling Nordone Graham, she couldn't even debate well on Newsmax the way she did on Atlanta News First. But on to my more serious point about liberal Protestant ministers. I was run out of a Southern Baptist church because I stood up to some of the liberal Protestant material they were using, and what I found is the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship now controls the majority of evangelical churches' choral music, and they are even taking control of Sunday school material. The Cooperative Baptist Fellowship's Mercer University. Is leading this charge, and most churches don't even know they're singing out of Mercer's material, and that CBF material helps fund liberal churches that deny the inerrancy of Scripture.
Well, Bobby, let me let me say something. I happen to be a Southern Baptist and pretty involved in my denomination, and I'm pretty disturbed by what's been happening in my denomination. There is no doubt that for a very long period of time, that the the Southern Baptists were moved intentionally to the left. There is no doubt that a lot of the materials coming out of Lifeway Christian Resources, which used to be, by the way, they used to be called the Baptist Sunday School Board, which is where every Southern Baptist church got their Vacation Bible School material, got their Sunday School material, discipleship training material, the whole nine yards. And of course, they renamed it to become Lifeway Christian Resources, and they pretty much ran the whole thing into the ground.
I mean, it's just awful what's happened. I'm going to. About my experience to your point, Bobby. They came and asked me to write a book because I'm a Southern Baptist, and I said happy to do it. And so I wrote a book, and it was oh, it was my one of my I think it was my second or third book, and it was about Obama and the policies of the Obama administration.
Bobby, I got a call from my editor there at Lifeway Christian Resources. And they said that somebody went through and they counted, and there were more references to Obama than Jesus in my book. And I said, "That's because my book is about Obama and not Jesus." And I'm like, "What the heck is this all about?" And it was very clear to me that at that time, that whoever was working on the book, they were liberal, they loved Obama, and they didn't like what I had to say about the far left anti-Christian policies of Barack. Barack Hussein Obama, and here's the irony: I now go to an Associated Reformed Presbyterian Church that happens to be the home of our incoming governor Henry McMaster, and our still hasn't won the election yet, second district Congressman Joe. Wow, Bobby!
I think we lost the phone connection there, but I think we got the gist of what you were saying. Thank you for calling in. That it's oh that that was the same book. I this is funny, Dylan. I had a line in the book, and the line basically said, "So who peed in your weedies?" Right?
It's a phrase.
Well, who peed in your weedies?
So I get a call from Lifeway Christian Resources, and they said, "Tom, we're not allowed to use that kind of language. You you cannot reference bodily fluids in your book." They sent me an email about it, so I called them up, and I said, "What do you?" I said, "What are you talking about bodily fluids?" I I just got a. They didn't tell me. They didn't provide any context. I'm like, "What in the world are they talking about?" And they said, "Well, you said that so and so peed in your weenies," and I said, "Well, it's a it's a phrase, right?
It's it's a phrase." So like, they go, "Well, you can't you can't say." P.
So they said you could say urinate, and I'm like, that doesn't make any sense at all. Who urinated? Just not a phrase. You have to be more literal, literal, Todd. Yeah, you have to say urinate in Wheaties.
Sit here, go. What the hell? And then I'm like, oh, I'm so sorry. What the heck?
Sorry. I'll tell you. I will tell you this. That was a Christian publishing house. I would, I will never ever work with a Christian publishing house again because of just how difficult they are and how liberal they are.
So I Simon and Schuster is my publisher now. They do a great job. They let me say pee in your. It doesn't matter. You can pee in your Wheaties as much as you want to with Simon and Schuster.
I love that nine zero one two six zero five nine two six is our telephone number. That's nine zero one two six zero five nine two six.

This is the Todd Stern's radio show. Been a good look. It's it's been a good couple of days, and and I know that sounds crazy, but look, we're gonna we're gonna persevere, and we're gonna we're gonna make it. We really are. We just have to allow the Democrats to show exactly what they're up to.
Now, that doesn't mean that thing. This is going to be a cakewalk. It's going to get ugly, and it's going to be tough. These Democrats, they want one of their first goals is to disarm the American people, which is. Is what this gun registry is all about.
This universal gun registry.
So there's going to have to be a lot of pushback. But ladies and gentlemen, what you can do right now is this, and this needs to happen immediately. We need to reconvene the Congress, and they need to stay in Washington, work through Thanksgiving, work through Christmas, and get every single thing across the finish line. Every single bit of President Trump's agenda, it has to it has to get through the House and the Senate and on the president's desk, and may I just stress that we have got to abolish the Department of Education. The administration has to do that.
If if we don't do that, if we don't return control back to your local community, then we will lose the republic. I've been saying this till I'm I don't know blue in the face.
So what you need to do is contact the district office. And several of your lawmakers have district offices. Call those district offices and let them know that you want those lawmakers back in Washington, finishing the president's agenda. And after you do that, you contact the Senate and do the exact same thing: pick up the phone, give them a call, send them an email. That's your homework tomorrow.
I I want to hear from you if you've been able to talk to anybody at any of these congressional offices and what did they tell you? Because I'm telling you, folks, this nonsense about sending everybody to voicemail that's got to end. It is time for these lawmakers to feel the wrath of the American people. That's what we've got to do here. You can be nice, you can be polite, but you need to state what's on your mind to your elected leader.
So we're gonna we'll talk about that tomorrow. We'll see how that goes. But that is your homework assignment for this afternoon, this evening, tomorrow. Open line Friday. Don't forget, get a copy of the Golden Age: How Trump Saved America.
No, he did save. America, but what was the message in the book? The message was very clear in the book, and we'll talk about this tomorrow. But what was once saved can be lost again, and that is exactly what has happened. All right, get out there, everybody.
Have a great rest of your day. ToddSturges dot com. Go and check out all of our great content there, and we'll see you back here tomorrow on the radio. Be good, America.
