Thank you. This is What's Right, What's Left with Pastor Ernie Sanders. Good evening and welcome to another edition of What's Right, What's Left, the voice of the Christian resistance on this 20th day of February 2025. And this is pledge week, pledge week, pledge week, right?
And so folks, we're going to start right out of the helmet, give you the numbers so you can get your phones working at 888-281-1110 or 888-677-9673. Back in the phone booth. He was lonesomely, lonesomely. He was back there because he was all by himself. And he wears a hoodie because he's cold because they won't give us any heat. And he's trying to save money or what. But it kind of reminds me of Scrooge, you know, when he would only allow so many coals and that.
We don't even have a furnace at all with no coals. But he's not alone back there. Lonesomely has Karen. And folks, let me tell you, there's good Karens, just like there are the bad ones. And we have one of the best Karens you'll ever find. She's a caring Karen. That's what she is. Alrighty. And they're trapped in the glass cage.
We keep him in there because that's where he does the best work. Okay. There's none other than Stile. Hey, good evening, Pastor. Alrighty here. Now, you heard the captain, so you know, during the day often you hear a tap, tap, tap. She's texting on her phone. That's why we've called her. She's come to known as Fona Lisa. Fona Lisa.
With a cackle. Good evening, everyone. There you go. Alright.
And then we have you heard that deep voice down there. Alright. That's not Johnny Cash. Okay. That is none other than the elder.
Good evening. Alrighty. I thought you was gonna say Randall.
Okay, that's the elder Randall. Blessed be the name of the Lord. Alrighty. So after all that, we got to get going on tonight. Now, I want to first I want to just say thank all them folks yesterday because we kind of had like a miracle yesterday. Those that we started up bed. We are on a tight, tight situation right now. And then they tried to jam the phone line so that we couldn't get through.
But we prayed and as soon as we were finished praying, they were gone. And so we're going to open tonight in prayer and so folks out there if you'll hear us, you'll hear me and pray along with us. You know, we have some interesting things coming our way in this world, the days we're living in.
We'll be talking about some of that tonight. And this is why we're here. We're, we're here.
We don't, we don't get paid to doing this, we do this on our own dime and in our own time, we do it because the cause of the righteous cause and it's in obedience to God's word. And so we want to be able to bring you to let you know, to be the watchman on the wall. And as we've done that for over 50 years now, we've let you know what's coming and ask yourself, you've been listening to us for a long time. Have we been right?
Have we been right? You know, all of those, we got a really good record because God has shown us what's coming. And so, anyhow, I'm going to open in prayer tonight and if you'd pray with us, we'd appreciate it. Heavenly Father, Lord God, we just want to thank you and praise you, Lord, for choosing us and using us, Lord, Father God, to your glory. Lord, being able to get the gospel message out, how many over, how many thousands and thousands of times have we given that gospel message and invitation over the years? It's been a privilege and an honor to be, Lord, to be chosen of you to do that. Tonight, Lord, we know that the thing that the enemy hates, the thing that the enemy here fears is the truth. And so, that's why we're here, Lord God, and we know that we're stepping on his toes. And so, Lord God, as we come here tonight, we just would ask, Father, first of all, Lord, many people out there listening, every now and then we hear from someone who would tell us, well, you know, I've been listening to you for many, many years and I'm ashamed to say, well, I've never supported you.
This is my first time I'm going to send a check. Lord, we have many people out there that have been listening to us for years and years and have never helped us, have never said, you know what, I've benefited from your program, I get your newsletter, but I've really never, never really donated. Lord, we need to hear from those people now because we're up against a deadline and we have to have that money in and we're about, we're still about 18,000 short of what we need for by Monday morning. So, Heavenly Father, Lord God, I just would ask, Lord, that you would move the people, Father God, that we could continue and not lose anymore.
All these years, you always have kept us, well, we've gone off some stations, yeah, we have, but then we're still doing the job, we're still fighting that fight. So, Lord, I would ask that you would motivate the people out there, Lord, to open up their hearts and their pocketbooks and help us out as we continue to do this, not for our benefit, but for the benefit of those to be the watchmen on the wall who need to hear what's happening. And Lord, we too also pray that they should get the newsletter because there's a lot of information in the newsletter, it's free to them. So, Lord God, we just would ask that, and Lord, again, tonight, if they try to jam the phone lines again, Lord, we just would ask that you would come against all of those that come against us tonight. In Jesus' precious name, amen.
Amen. All right. Bob and Laurie in Michigan pledged 100. Thank you, Bob and Laurie.
All right. And so here now, Karen pledges 50. Thank you, Karen.
Already. Told you she was a good Karen. That's right, that's right. Okay, let's get into, the title of the message was those who wall over for vanity. Boy, have we been seeing that, I mean, it's just, I'm amazing, I've never seen anything like this here. You've got the Democrats, you know, they're Democrats, anyone who takes God's name in vain, you know, when God has warned them not to do that, right? I mean, God, he didn't stutter, did he?
No, he didn't. And we see these Congress women mostly, but they're out there taking God's name in vain, not just once or twice, but shouting it over and over. The heathen rage, why do the heathen rage and why do they imagine a vain thing? Well, they do, okay?
Yeah. And, you know, they, we look, we understand that, you know, our number one enemies are not the Russians or the Chinese, our number one enemies are here. They hate God, the Democratic Communist Party hates God. And, you know, Joe Biden, he looked upon Christians as his number one enemy.
He looked upon Christians and he hated Christians. And so here tonight, as we get going in here, we understand who the enemy is out there. And, of course, we want, you know, it's not God's will that any comes short, okay? And we pray to God that he brings them to repentance, lest they should burn, huh?
Yeah, yeah. Well, let's get into God's word now, the cursing out there that they have done. And the Lord Jesus, he deals with that and he addresses the cursing. And so if we go over to Matthew chapter 15 tonight, and in Matthew chapter 15, we start with verse 1. Let's just take it verse by verse, okay?
Okay. And Jesus came to scribes and Pharisees, which were of Jerusalem, saying, Why do the disciples transgress the... No, then came to Jesus the scribes and Pharisees, which were of Jerusalem. Why do the disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? For they wash not their hands when they eat bread.
Now, he was making a point that he wasn't really referring to, you know, the problem of having dirty hands. They're referring, and now who were the scribes and the Pharisees? They were both the religious and the judicial leaders. They were, you know, and they were corrupt.
Just like today we have, I've never seen such a corrupt judicial as we have today. And so they're talking about, they're telling, why do the disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? Now, these were traditions of men, not of God, right? And so here, but he answered and said unto them, Why do you also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition? Where God commanded, saying, Honor thy father and thy mother, and he that curses father and mother, let him die the death. Deuteronomy 5 16, Jesus was quoting. Now, but you say, Whosoever shall say to his father or mother, It is a gift by whatsoever thou might be profited by me.
What do you think he meant by that? There was, I liked in my commentary, there was known as the law of Corbin. Yep, that was Corbin Corbin. And anyone who made a Corbin vow was required to dedicate money to God's temple. Well, you see, but here's the thing. What they did is when they made the Corbin, when they say Corbin Corbin, they're telling their elderly parents, I put my I all my belongings, I've got to the temple.
So let me ask you a question. Yeah, they put all their money and all their belongings, their property to the temple. Did they still have full use of every dime in all of their property? I believe they did.
You'd be right. They did. And so so now their responsibility was to take care of their elderly parents. Yeah. OK. And so here Jesus is saying, OK, he says, but you say whosoever shall say to his father or mother, it is a gift.
Other passages of scripture say Corbin Corbin. Right. Right. But whosoever thou mightest be profited by me and honor not his father or his mother, he shall, he shall be free. And they thus have you made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition. So when he says honor thy father and my mother. Yeah.
He's referring to exactly that. You honor them. You take care of them.
You see to their needs. OK. Yeah. But it was like this.
Well, that was a way to circumvent doing that saying Corbin. But then it was also almost a stat prestigious status, if you were to look like, hey, I'm giving to the temple, I'm giving to God. And that was more important to them than actually taking care of their parents. Oh, yeah. Well, that's just like when they when the Pharisees would put on their high phylactries and they would stand up in a high place and they would pray.
Right. And they would open their arms so that everybody could see that they were praying. OK. And so that they would come across as a very, very religious and humble. You hypocrites. Well, did Isaiah, the prophet, prophesies of you saying this people droth nigh unto me with their mouth in honor of me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
What was Jesus was quoting Isaiah twenty nine thirteen. And so. But in vain, they do worship me teaching for doctrines, the commandments of men. Yeah.
And see, though, that's exactly this Corbin Corbin. You know, that was the commandments of men with their teaching. Now, let me ask you this. OK, is this kind of thing still being done today and is it being done only in synagogues or is something very similar being done in the church?
Oh, yeah. Yeah, it's definitely being done still in various ways. People had that form of godliness, but they're not their heart is not where God's heart is. It's not concerned about the things that God is concerned about. Heck, in fact, we see it.
I know this may be just a little jump, but we see it even now. We see so many churches that deny the fact that God said the shutting of innocent blood is an abomination. You see many churches that wanted to vote Democrat and wanted Kamala to actually win.
I just it's mind blowing. Those are apostate churches and that's what they were. They are apostate churches. But today, when you have people that take a vow of poverty and so they sign all of their property over to the church and yet they still have full use of it. OK, but they're saying, well, you know, my vow of poverty this way, I have no income, but they do.
OK, well, and so here and again the same for the very same reasons not to have to take care of their elderly parents. OK, you know, and it's still being done today in the synagogues, just like it was back in Jesus day. OK, and so here. And he called the multitude and he said it to them, hear and understand not that which goeth into the mouth, defileth the man, but that which come out of the mouth, this defileth the man. Then came the disciples and said to him, notice that the Pharisees were offended after they heard this.
And so he said. But he answered and said, every plant which my Heavenly Father hath not planted shall he shall be rooted up. And so, in other words, he's talking about the difference between doctrine and the doctrines of men here that they have in their traditions and the difference between men that God has raised up and ones that had their mamas raised them up. And so, let them alone, they be blind leaders of the blind, and if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall in the ditch. Then answered Peter and said unto them, declare unto us this parable. OK, you would have thought Peter would have understood that. OK. And here, and Jesus said, are you also yet without understanding? Do not you yet understand that whatsoever entereth into the mouth go into the belly and is cast into the drought?
Do you know what the drought is? Oh yeah, that's the toilet. But those things which proceed out of the mouth come from the heart and they defile the man. Now it's an interesting thing. Some years ago, there was a scientific, there was research that it was a big story and nobody seems to remember it, I do. But where they found within the heart a brain, what looked like a brain within the human heart.
OK. And so, boy, that was a big story for a while, then it stopped. But here, what he's talking about, it would make a lot of sense, OK, here. But those things which proceed out of the mouth come from the heart and they defile the man.
For out of the heart proceedeth evil thoughts, murderers, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness and blasphemies. Well, look at that. See, Jesus knew all about the Democratic Party platform, right? Well, that's what you have on what is called the legacy media nowadays, huh? Legacy.
What a legacy they have. OK. Oh, boy, we have to. Oh, yeah. Hold on one minute. Phone lines are open, folks. We want to say. Pam in Ohio pledges three hundred seventy five. Thank you, Pam. All right. Anonymous in Ohio pledges three hundred. Thank you. Anonymous.
All right. Eight eight eight two eight one one one one zero and eight eight eight six seven seven nine six seven three. Nothing can get your attention to hold it more than God's word is the greatest source of information, greatest source of knowledge and existence. And so but I had to stop and I have to give the numbers out because we we have to get we have to get some money in here.
Then it goes on to say these are the things which defile a man, but to eat with unwashed hands defileth not a man. And so I'm going to stop right there and we're going to give this again. Eight eight eight two eight one one one one zero. That's the credit card line, folks.
I'll say people say, well, you say that too fast, too fast. OK, hey, hey, no, we'll do a little better than eight eight eight two eight one one one one zero. That's the credit card line.
Eight eight eight six seven seven nine six seven three. We really appreciate last night and so far from what I can see, we're not being played. So God's answering our prayer. And so here we're going to, you know, Randall, I've been talking about for years and telling people and I can't understand always about the what is the persecution of the church, especially Nigeria. But in North Korea and North Korea and the wickedness, one of the things they practiced in on Christians in those wicked evil prisons. I mean, they must have been Democrats over there somehow. They literally would literally pull the hair out of women, literally pull their hair out by the roots.
OK, Jesus. And that was one of their major practices. But the persecution of the church has been going on.
It's worse today than it's ever been. But hardly anybody knows about it. But that's the very first thing that we pray about. And when we have our prayer meetings, we all hold up the church, the persecuted church.
So. I just gave hell. I just gave hell. He just pledged a hundred dollars. Thank you, Pastor Hal. God bless you.
You've pledged so much in the past. And so anyhow, thank you, Pastor Hal. No.
Anyhow, we're going to play a little clip. And so whenever you're ready, because there the church is being persecuted, take her away. Beheaded.
Yes. Beheaded in a church in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Why is no one reporting this?
Why does no one seem to care? Well, let me bring in Dexter Van Zyl, an expert on anti-Christian violence. Dexter, what can you tell us about this absolutely barbaric atrocity? OK, well, first of all, it took place in the Democratic Republic of Congo, which is a huge country with about one hundred and five million people that right now is basically in a conflict with neighboring Rwanda over territory in Kivu. OK. And the violence was perpetrated by an organization that was affiliated, that is affiliated with ISIS. And the thing is, is that there are some people who have argued that they are essentially working on behalf of Rwanda because Rwanda is a neighboring country that covets and is actually taking control of an awful lot of the mineral resources in Kivu. And so what this conflict, what this violence has done is demonstrated that the Congo cannot protect its citizens from violence in Kivu or in North Kivu. And so what people are worried about is that this is essentially an attempt to kind of destabilize the Democratic Republic of Congo and legitimize Rwandan claims to the minerals in the region.
I don't want to underestimate or downplay the ideological hatred by the perpetrators of this group who murdered these Christians. But the thing is, is that it's taking place against a backdrop of geopolitics in Africa. And what has happened is, and so if the Congo, under the leadership of Felix Chisakade, can't protect its borders, essentially, it's going to have to go for help outside the country and the people live there. And that's why people are worried about it. The Congolese that I've spoken to here in the States say, I said, wait a minute, are you telling me that the Rwandans are supporting this attack? And they said, yes. And I said, but Rwanda is a Christian nation.
They said, yes, but this will help destabilize the region where all of these minerals that are used for the iPhones that we make, that we use in our lives. And so clearly there's an ideological and a theological component going on, but there's also a strategic issue as well. It's terrible, isn't it? As a former Peace Corps volunteer, I served in the Congo for about a year, 14 months in the 1980s. And the problem is, is that if this violence is allowed to continue and the average Congolese learns and recognizes, and the violence like this against Christians perpetrated by jihadists is not a new problem. It's been a problem in North Africa for a long time. And the problem is, is that trying to get people to pay attention to it is very difficult.
Well, that's my second question. You see the headline, 70 Christians Beheaded, and you think, what? You almost can't fathom that headline, but is Islamic violence against Christians in Africa, is this an anomaly basically?
Oh, no, absolutely not. This takes place in a number of countries throughout the region. And there are some people who are worried that essentially what we're looking at is a jihad against Christians in numerous other places in North Africa. And routinely we hear reports of these acts of violence. And the problem is, is that what happens when the Christians start to fight back? Are we going to start to see the equivalent of an interreligious war in the continent?
And the problem is, is that there's going to be huge problems with this. The problem is, is that first of all, the reason why this doesn't get as much traction as, say, you know, the conflict, you know, the Palestinian suffering in Gaza, is because it's just not that many reporters on the ground. And the Congo is a huge, dangerous place to be a reporter. And frankly, also, there's just a fair amount of ideological indifference to anti-Christian violence on the part of reporters in the West.
And Dexter, I think that's the question. You know, if you were to replace 70 Congolese Christian with any other minority group, 70 Palestinians were beheaded. 70 people at a pride parade were beheaded. This would be the biggest news story of the decade. And yet this just happened and no one's reporting on it. Literally crickets. Right. And it's like that with Boko Haram when they murder people in Nigeria.
You know, there's basically crickets. And I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that we have essentially kind of an anti-Christian bias on the part of people who run the media. And the thing is, I think there's another factor is, is that essentially Christianity has been lumped in with essentially this whole notion of settler colonialism and that whatever violence is directed their way is largely a consequence of the violence perpetrated by Christians in years past. But I'm going to tell you, I lived in Zaire. I lived in the DRC when it was called Zaire. And one of the reasons why I became a much more devout Christian was because of the church that I went to every Sunday morning as a volunteer.
OK. And, you know, and I would go and talk to the local pastor when I had like spiritual crises as a volunteer. And the thing is, is that so what has happened is, is that African black African Christians, OK, have suffered the consequences of hostility towards Western civilization and Christianity itself, in part because people don't care what happens to Christians. Unless it can be blamed. And part of it has to do with the fact that if the perpetrators are dark skinned, well, then we're going to have to give them a pass. And that's it's a very, very strange milieu, so to speak, that we work in. But the thing is, is that unfortunately, you know, I mean, this is the cynical side of me. You know, I've been, you know, somebody that has documented hostility towards Israel for the past 20 years. But if the IDF were responsible for these beheadings, it would have made the front page of the Washington Post and the New York Times and every newspaper throughout the world. And there would be, you know, Israeli Jews condemning it as well. But the problem is, is it because it's essentially black on black violence?
Nobody cares. And, you know, there was a book called Stealth Conflicts by a scholar by the name of Virgil Hawkins and he's a tremendous scholar. And he documented the number of newspaper articles about the civil war in the Congo. And this was at a point of time when 5.4 million people have died. There were a few dozen newspaper articles or a few dozen article, you know, news shows or segments on it.
But then when you looked at the conflict between the Israelis and the Palestinians, which every one of the deaths is tragedy. We're talking at this time, maybe over a time frame of maybe 30 to 40 thousand people had died. There were literally thousands of articles. So there were more articles than there were people killed during a specific period of time.
And it had to do with, first of all, it was in people's interest that this conflict be covered. And more importantly, it was just easier to go to to cover the violence in the Congo. The Congo is a huge country. It's kind of desolate. If you go there, there's a very good chance you're going to get very sick and you may not get good medical care. That was something that I experienced as a Peace Corps volunteer. Yeah, go to Israel.
You'll be you can have a nice meal at a restaurant in Jerusalem the evening after you've basically covered a protest at the security barrier. Yeah, I think it's exactly what you're saying. It's selective outrage. And, you know, there's this there's this line when people talk in the about is. All right, we'll be we'll get back to that in a minute. But Cheryl in Texas place is $5. Thank you, Cheryl.
Okay. 888-281-1110 or 888-677-9673 folks, you know, I forgot to mention earlier. We have what why they last why they last we have the two parts one and two Pastor Sanders 50 years exhilarating moments untold challenges in many stories. Folks that you it's kind of an amazing. I got to say this the Lord's given me an amazing life.
We haven't had one boring day in 50 years. He's put me in situations where well, you'll see it all in these DVDs. We're asking a donation of $25 and the same thing. We're going through what the little Bible. A little Bible book that we have there that gives all the information that those are really great.
I mean, they're really good. We've gone through thousands and thousands of those over the years next to my Bible. So that's my best book. I keep it there.
It tells you about every topic. I mean you really like them and since sometimes people ordered 20 at a time. Okay, what up? What a good thing for Christmas gifts to give out to people or it's a wonderful birthday gift to but anyhow, we have those for the same a donation.
We're asking of 25 now if you're destitute poor and you can't afford it, but you'd like to have one. We'll give us a call at four four zero three three eight. I wonder if they got the full I forgot to ask if they got the phone fixed today.
They were down there. I think they might have got the phone fixed but four four zero three three eight one three six seven and if that's not working four four zero three three eight one zero. That's one zero three six.
Give us a call and we'll see what we can do for you to get you one without charge because the important thing is not the important thing is to get the word out to people. And so anyhow eight eight eight two eight one one one one zero or eight eight eight six seven seven nine six seven three and folks again, like I said, you know what these people are saying this is absolutely true, you know, and here, you know, these minerals that they're talking about. They're working children children work all day in these mines to mine these were rare minerals and guess what they work all day just for food just for just to have one good meal just one. Okay, and that's wrong and who's behind all of that. Well, the deep state, the deep state is behind it all. Yeah. And so, take us back to the rest of that only had how much 13 only 13 seconds left and okay.
We're not going to go back now if you want to go back to it. Okay. You had an article there.
Yes. This talks about how sanctuary cities are resisting Trump's deportation and putting residents at risk. Democrat led states and cities are going out of their way to shield illegal aliens from immigration and customs enforcement agents otherwise known as ice public rights project founder and President Jill how big claims these policies make cities, safer, but this is how sanctuary cities resisting Donald Trump's deportation put residents at risk. More than, we're going to say 40 million, at least illegal aliens are estimated to be living in the United States thanks to Joe Biden's open border policies. Donald Trump campaign on a promise to start the largest mass deportation program in American history on day one should voters send them back to the White House.
Trump won the popular vote carry every swing state and took in more votes than any Republican Republican presidential candidate in history. It says, on average, or an average of 826 illegal aliens have been arrested each day since Trump took office and ice agents are on a pace to make 25,000 arrests in the first 30 days of the new administration. For comparison, the monthly figure never reached 20,000 during Joe Biden's entire presidency, but Democrat governors and mayors across the county are ramping up their sanctuary efforts to protect illegal aliens from deportation. Democrats in California are allocating up to 50 million and funding to defend the state's progressive policies against challenges by the Trump administration think they need that money for the fires out there. The administration sets aside 25 million for the State Department of Justice to fight legal battles against the federal government and another 25 million for legal groups to defend immigrants facing possible deportation deportation.
There are a total of California's only one sanctuary state, but there are a total of 13 sanctuary states, sanctuary cities also outside of those 13 states, including in places like Atlanta, Georgia, and Louisville, Kentucky. This Thursday, Attorney General Pam Bondi announced a lawsuit against New York Governor Kathy Hochul, State Attorney General Letitia James, and Motor Vehicles Commissioner Mark Schroeder. This is a new DOJ, Bondi declared, we are taking steps to protect American citizens.
She continued, as you know, we sued Illinois and New York didn't listen, you're next. Bondi was joined by the mother of 20 of a 20 year old girl who was murdered by an MS 13 gang member who should not have been inside the United States. No other parents should suffer by having their children or their child murdered by somebody that shouldn't be here Bondi said millions of illegal aliens with violent records have flooded into our communities, bringing violence and deadly drugs with them. In New York, the DOJ is investigating a law that allows illegal aliens to obtain a driver's license, which does not include their immigration status and lastly if these great men and women pull over someone who don't have access to their background.
They have no idea who they are dealing with and it puts their lives on the line every single day, Bondi said. Well you know, these so called sanctuary cities, what they're doing elders, they're actually declaring war on the American people. In other words, these so called sanctuary cities in reality are terrorist zone. They're like terrorist camps there. They're breaking in and harboring those out there that have come here to do American damage and they've done it.
They're killing people, raping women, murdering, I mean so many times you saw the horrendous thing. Kathy Hochul should hold herself responsible for that young woman that was set on fire and burnt to death while people stood and watched her burn. That's what they do in New York and then Bragg, Bragg should, that bought and paid for prostitute, attorney general out there, Bragg or whatever, that he, a prosecutor, because of what he did, remember with Penny, the fellow, that marine guy, he set, the reason those people set and watched that woman burn, nobody's help her, they were afraid if they were to help her, they'd be charged. And it's because of people like Bragg, these are prostitutes that George Searle was bought and paid for, there's a whole lot of them he bought and paid for, he instilled them in their office. Not only did he, but he didn't pay for them with his own money, no, he paid for them with USAID, okay, and that's just unbelievable but that's the way it is and people need to wake up to that. That's why we're here. I started talking about, I started an article but I never did finish it, the deep state destruction, President Trump cuts funding to National Endowment for Democracy, National Endowment for Democracy.
It's been a bloodbath. I'm going to pick it up where I left off and tell you about this National Endowment for Democracy. The National Endowment for Democracy is a CIA cutout according to former State Department Deputy Assistant Secretary and founder of Foundation for Free Online, Mike Binns. It was started in November 1983 and funded directly by Congress. Under the guise of promoting democracy, what once was considered covert actions have become overt according to a 1991 opinion piece in the Washington Post. The sugar daddy of overt operations has been the National Endowment for Democracy, a quasi-private group headed by Carl Gershman that is funded by the US Congress. Through the late 1980s, it did openly what had once been unspeakably covert, dispensing money to anti-communist forces behind the Iron Curtain. As with many government funding nonprofits and cutouts, which started as a, possibly as a good intention, has turned into an imperialistic disaster. Just recently, National Endowment for Democracy publication, the Journal for Democracy called for the arrest of Poland's president, or PIS party, to ensure that population does not return comparing to the crimes, comparing it to the crimes of communism.
Now, in the late 2023, a second wave of transitional justice suddenly looming over Poland. This time, however, the transgressions of the populist regime were overshadowing disputes about accountability for crimes of communism. PIS had barely taken power in 2015 before violating the 1997 constitution by not printing a constitutional tribunal ruling in order to avoid implementing it, and by packing the court in violation. That's what they wanted to do here.
The Communist Party here, the Democratic Communist Party wanted to pack the courts. You know, they went after President Trump, they used lawfare. Everything that they could try, including, I have no doubts in my mind that Joe Biden was behind, was the one behind the assassination attempts on President Trump. But they've tried everything.
Lawfare. They tried to impeach him. They tried every kind of dirty trick. And it didn't work. You know why?
Because God said, don't touch that by anointing. Now it's going to come back on him, isn't it? Poland's new government must therefore do more than just return to democracy. It must address transitional justice. Prime Minister Tusk and his coalition government must also stabilize the political system to ensure the populace does not return to the next election. The future of democracy in Poland hangs in the balance. So, Annie Applebaum is on the board of directors for the most notorious CIA cutout in all of U.S. history.
So, you know, when reading her foul, the froth mouth hit piece on Elon Musk, maybe take that into consideration. So, that was the deep state and she was one of the deep state leaders there. And so, all right, 888-281. Boy, the phone lines have been quiet.
Very quiet. What time is it? Well, we're almost finished with the first hour. Folks out there, we've got to hear from you.
I mean, we really do. You know, I hate to say it, but it could happen that we might have to drop another station. And the stations right now that are the most vulnerable are San Diego, Chicago, and Dallas.
Those are the ones that are most vulnerable right now. So, we do need to hear from you. We really do need to hear from you. Believe me. Remember, when all of those, I remember especially in Denver, I got all those letters from Colorado saying, please stay on the air. And people sent good donations. And I really appreciate it because, I mean, people said, but there were too few of them.
Too few of them. And we tried to tell people, you know, we really got to hear from you. Well, after we had to drop the station, then we heard from the people, is there any chance you get back on?
Don't let that happen to where you're at, folks. We need to hear from you now. We really do. So you can continue to hear from us being the watchmen on the wall. Those numbers are 888-281-1110. That's 888-281-1110 or 888-677-9673. We got to hear from you.
We really do. Here, Cash Patel, as you know, Cash Patel today was confirmed as FBI director. As the Gateway Pundit reported earlier, the U.S. Senate voted to confirm Cash Patel as an American's next FBI director.
His confirmation did not come easy. Two of the Senate's leading rhinos, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska. I don't know why they just don't just go over and join the Democratic Party because they're not Republicans. They vote for the Democrats much more than they do Republicans. Folks, I would be ashamed to have Lisa Murkowski of Alaska or Susan Collins of Maine.
I would be really ashamed to have them. I was ashamed of Sherrod Brown when he was here. We finally took a lot of work, but for the first time, we have two conservative U.S. senators from Ohio, Republican senators. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Susan Collins of Maine voted against him. Every single Democrat voted against him too. Surprisingly, this was a shock to me. Fellow rhino Mitch McConnell of Kentucky voted for him.
What happened? He's the only one of all of Trump's picks that he voted for. The Senate broke the filibuster on Patel's nomination in a 51-47 vote earlier today. Now Patel has released his first comments since the confirmation and the imagination will love him. His fiery statement should also send shivers down the spines of the deep state. You hear that, Adam Schiflis? Pencil neck.
Pencil neck. He's coming for you and America's enemies. America's enemies. Boy, Hillary never got her pardon.
Hillary, remember she said, if Trump gets reelected, we're all going to hang. I'm honored to be confirmed as the ninth director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Patel wrote. Next, thank you to President Trump and Attorney General Bondi for your unwavering confidence and support. Patel then vowed to end the two-tiered justice system the FBI has practiced for decades while vowing to be honest and transparent with the American people. The FBI has stored as a storied legacy from the G-men to safeguarding our nation in the wake of 9-11. Then the American people deserve an FBI that's transparent, accountable, and committed to justice. He stated, the publication of our justice system has eroded public trust.
But that ends today. My mission as director is clear. Let good cops be cops and rebuild the trust in the FBI, he added. Working alongside the dedicated men and women of the Bureau and our partners, we will rebuild the FBI and the American people can be proud of it. Patel said, a dire warning to those who seek to harm American people and to those who seek to harm, in other words, you Democrats, you Democrats, he's talking to you if you seek to harm us Americans, right? And to those who seek to harm Americans, consider this your warning, he said, we will hunt you down in every corner of the planet. And we're coming up to a break.
Are we coming up to a break? Okay. And so, you have an article there? Yeah, this is a US AIDS Taliban money laundering scheme. It says that in 2022, the DA Afghanistan bank showed off photos of 40 million in stacks of $100 bills sitting on the tarmac at Kabul International Airport. The Taliban controlled central bank described this as one of three shipments of humanitarian aid amounting to over 100 million. DAB or DAB, I'm sorry, Afghanistan central bank was headed by Noor Ahmad Aga, specifically designated terrorists who had been named as the financier of bomb making, including the IEDs, which had killed over 1000 American soldiers. And sending money to a sanctioned figure was illegal. Despite that someone had sent a massive fortune and US cash to the Taliban's terror bank. While no international organization was willing to admit the cash smuggling operation, the ultimate responsibility lay with USAID. The 40 million on the tarmac was part of a much larger scheme, under which USAID and the State Department provided over 1.7 billion in funding to the UN, which then shipped 2.9 billion in cash to Afghanistan.
The cash had to be physically shipped because it was illegal for US banks to provide it to the Taliban. Well, we're coming up to hardcore breaks, so we'll be back right after this.
