Original Air Dates: November 6th & 7th, 2021 | Guests: Donna Jackson & James Hirsen
This week: defending faith is defending freedom. And on Tuesday, we saw a lot of both as parents rose up to push back on being called “domestic terrorists” by their own government. Especially for exercising their rights of free speech to stand up to school boards determined to shove Marxist ideology and Critical Race Theory garbage on their kids.
As we’ve said for some time now, you won’t see a renewal in America until we see a revival in the Church.
Marxist/Socialist Attacks on Faith
Marxism and all its forms (socialism, communism, etc.) is the enemy of faith. That’s not opinion, that’s fact. Marx famously called religion the drug of the people. That’s because the two cannot coexist. Marxism and socialism will not share space with and cannot tolerate faith in anything other than government.
Donna Jackson from Project 21 joins us as we look at a SCOTUS case where coach Joseph Kennedy was fired for kneeling alone for a moment of prayer after football games and the chilling effect this could have on public officials. But is it time to go on the offense? Clearly, sitting back, staying on the sidelines, and letting things happen has not worked because the professional agitators (paid for with your tax dollars no less), have seized control of the ball. And won’t give up.
With both our guests, we also look at the stunning wins Tuesday night at all levels — and by many who expressed their faith and defense of America and her values, defeating progressives at every level of government. Are we seeing a revival in the face of Leftists trying to reform America?
Wait. Faith in Hollywood?
We’re also joined by James Hirsen, author of the bestselling Tales from the Left Coast. James weighs in on the remarkable rejection of the Left’s ideology in Tuesday’s elections. Some results were practically miraculous. Including on in Buffalo, NY, which we hadn’t heard about.
But is there, perhaps, even in revival happening in Hollywood?
More actors open up about their faith, sharing about God’s role in their lives. But this has its dangers too. As many actors, in mostly-Godless Hollywood have found out.
Have Faith. In God, in America
What do you think? Are we seeing a revival across America? A revival of faith and a revival of pro-America? And what do we need to do to keep this rolling?

Show Summary: The official Defense Department’s UFO Disclosure is due before June 25. Will we learn the truth? And could UFO Disclosure shake Christians’ worldview? UFO researcher, L.A. Marzulli exposes the real pilots. Is the truth of UFOs in the Bible?

Original Air Dates: June 5th & 6th, 2021 | L. A. Marzulli
This Week: We take a turn to the, well, a bit unusual. For us at least. But with the official UFO disclosure looming, we wanted to give you some information and grounding. Because for some people, especially Christians, the Defense Department’s UFO Disclosure could be upsetting. Even worldview shaking.
UFO Disclosure: What is it?
The Rhodes Photograph of a UFO over Phoenix, 1947. Click for full size.
You may have seen videos of UFOs (or UAPs as they’re now known—”Unidentified Aerial Phenomena”) zooming across the water on shows like Tucker Carlson. Some videos have been leaked over the last few years. Navy
pilots broke their silence about what they’ve seen. But here’s the odd part. The military was okay with it. Not only that, but they even authenticated the leaked videos. What is going on?
For decades, the military and intelligence kept silent about UFOs. They ridiculed people who came forward. They punished leakers. But now they’re confirming these stories?
Did you know? Some of the best photos of UFOs, which haven’t been debunked, was taken right here in Oregon? See the McMinnville UFO photographs.
When President Trump signed the covid relief bill into law on December 27, 2020, it included a deadline. The Defense Department had 180 days to put together an official, unclassified UFO Disclosure. And release it to the public. And 180 days puts it on June 25th, 2021.
What can we expect from the UFO Disclosure?
A Dec 2020 UFO picture. Note how the basic shape is similar to the 1947 Rhodes photo. Click for full size.
No one knows. At least not for certain. It’s an unclassified report so there’s a chance it could be quite tame. But given the videos already released, it could be quite explosive.
The Senate is to receive their own classified version of the UFO disclosure. That nay focus more on national defense aspects. Or it could contain even more sensational, more earth-shattering details that they just don’t think the public is ready for.
What could UFO Disclosure mean for Christians?
Of course, a lot of it depends on what’s in the UFO disclosure. If it’s a giant nothing burger, it won’t mean anything to Christians — or to anyone else. But right now, that’s looking unlikely. Why? Given what’s already been released (and confirmed) to the public, this is likely going to up the ante.
So, given that, Disclosure could shake Christians’ worldview. After all, the Bible even says (paraphrasing here) that what’s coming upon the Earth could deceive even the Elect. If the Bible says it could shake the faith of Christians, perhaps Christians should take this seriously.
As Christians, our faith is in the supernatural – and yet isn’t it odd that so many Christians are reluctant to talk about the supernatural? But we need to in order to combat the coming secular narrative which will undoubtedly attack the Christian worldview. Here’s just one example.
Did Aliens, not God, Create Us? And are They Coming Back?
If you’ve watched the Ancient Alien show on the History Channel, you know that secular ufologists (people who study UFOs), believe we’ve been visited by aliens since the dawn of humanity. And these aliens posed as (or were assumed to be) the gods of the ancient past.
Mainstream scientists have picked this up and have recently adopted panspermia as an alternate theory to explain our origins. In part, this is due to the inherent weaknesses of both the big bang theory and the theory of evolution. Why? Because life is far, far too complex to have happened by mere chance.
Basically, panspermia is the theory that mankind didn’t evolve. We were instead “seeded” here by advanced alien races. Which falls in line with the Ancient Aliens theory that a race of beings known as the Annunaki created us because they needed manual labor.
Are they coming back now? Is that what Disclosure will expose?
L. A. Marzulli, UFO Researcher — From a Biblical Point of View
L. A. Marzulli is an author, film maker, and researcher. And that includes UFOs. Why? Because who (or what) is driving those UFOs is, he believes, answered right there in the Bible.
Tune in to hear why L. A. believes the UFOs are not being piloted by little green men (or gray) from other planets. Instead, UFOs are advanced technology, from fallen angels. Why?
It makes sense from a Biblical standpoint. And answers so many questions Christians have about the seemingly “cruel” God of the Old Testament. Why, for example, did a “loving God” want the Israelites to completely wipe out entire tribes of people? Men, women, children—in some cases even their animals.
The reason starts with Genesis 3:15. And is later expanded on in Genesis 6. And without understanding these elements of the Biblical story, the rest of the story, including the coming of the Messiah, doesn’t make sense.
Don’t miss this show to get all the answers.

BE SURE TO watch L. A. Marzulli’s film, UFO Disclosure: The Coming Great Deception and the Luciferian Endgame. L. A. is making this available for free because the information it contains is so important for Christians prior to the military’s UFO disclosure due on or before June 25th.

The Coming UFO Disclosure
US intelligence agencies have 180 days to share what they know about UFOs, thanks to the Covid-19 relief and spending bill (CNN, Jan 10, 2021)
That report must contain detailed analyses of UFO data and intelligence collected by the Office of Naval Intelligence, the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force and the FBI, according to the Senate intelligence committee’s directive.
It should also describe in detail “an interagency process for ensuring timely data collection and centralized analysis of all unidentified aerial phenomena reporting for the Federal Government” and designate an official responsible for that process.
Finally, the report should identify any potential national security threats posed by UFOs and assess whether any of the nation’s adversaries could be behind such activity, the committee said.
The briefing will cover “observed airborne objects that have not been identified” and feature “detailed analysis of unidentified phenomena data collected by: a. geospatial intelligence; b. signals intelligence; c. human intelligence; and d. measurement and signals intelligence,” according to the request.

Show Summary: This week, we talk with former jihadist, Kamal Saleem. Kamal came to America to destroy it from within but converted to Christianity and now works to expose the dangers of Islam. We talk with him about Christmas, what Christmas was like growing up in a Muslim family in the Middle East — and those recent Trump peace deals with Israel. We get a surprise on a deal in the works.

Original Air Dates: Dec 26 & 27, 2020 | Kamal Saleem
Even in 2020, there are miracles. Today’s guest is himself a bit of a miracle. Raised in a devout Islamic family that sent him to jihadist training school while he was still a child, Kamal Saleem was commissioned to go to America and destroy it from within. That is until a miracle happened.
Kamal Saleem’s Miraculous Conversion
A former cultural jihadist – watch the incredible video of Kamal’s journey.
A terrible car accident broke his neck, but Kamal was surrounded by the love of devout Christians who nursed him back to health and saved him — not just from death but from the lies and hatred of radical Islam.
Kamal now leads Koome Ministries. Their mission is to see Ishmael Redeemed.
Christmas War
Wait. Christmas? War?
Yes. Christmas is known as a time of Peace on Earth but it was really, when you think about it, a declaration of war: Jesus coming to earth to declare war on the realm of Satan and that his dominance over the Earth and mankind was coming to an end.
And right now, there is still a war. For our freedoms and liberties that are enshrined in the Constitution, which recognized God’s desire for mankind to be free. Sorry, liberals. That’s just how it is. Yet we see democrat governors throughout the U.S. trying to take these God-given rights away.
Peace in the Middle East?
But it is a time of peace. And we take some time to talk with Kamal, who grew up in Lebanon, about the Trump peace deals between Israel and its former adversaries. Morocco. The U.A.E. Bahrain. Sudan. And others in the works.
What will happen to these fledgling deals if Biden manages to steal the election? And what would happen with Iran? We already know Biden wants to re-up the Iran Deal. Could this spell disaster in the region? Because there is another, historic—and prophetic—deal that’s shaping up. Between Israel and Saudi Arabia.
This would, quite literally, be a deal of Biblical proportions. Tune in to hear how this deal would be a fulfillment of Biblical prophecy!

Air Dates: May 16 & 17, 2020 | Dr. Joyce Malcolm & Kevin Mannix
This Week: When we see a leader make a difficult decision to shut down an economy based upon the fear that millions might die, we, as fellow human beings, feel compassion and are willing to give those in charge the benefit of the doubt. In the face of a true, catastrophic emergency—like a tidal wave or earthquake—it’s reasonable to do so and most people want to do their part to pitch in and help.
But as the situation matures and it becomes clear that the actual outcomes are not as devastating as predicted, a responsible leader—looking out for the people—relaxes the emergency’s grip to ensure the peoples’ freedoms and liberties are restored as quickly as possible. President Trump’s response has been nothing but looking out for the people, trying to protect them even though it sacrificed an amazing economy that had easily brought his 2nd term into his grasp.
The Constitution is at Stake
But not all leadership has the same philosophies or beliefs of restoring the people’s freedoms. In fact, some want to be overly “protective” (what some might call socialism) with the added emergency powers, and to put the people into a position where they are being treated as children, with no life choices because they, the leadership, know better. (What some might call fascism.)
What has been clearly demonstrated between the two choices is one understands the importance of liberty while taking precautions and acceptable risk; the other wants to safeguard their power while subjugating your freedoms. Your freedom is a direct threat to their power over you. These are the very struggles our Founding Fathers faced. And what about the rule of law to strike a balance between authority and liberty.
The Constitution vs States
With all the complexities of finding out how our Constitution interacts with states rights, the states’ Constitution, and statutes, we invite to I Spy a Constitutional scholar: Dr. Joyce Malcolm, a faculty member at Antonin Scalia Law School at George Mason University, who’s an expert on the evolution of individual rights, especially during the American Colonial era. She has testified before Congress and has had her work cited in a Supreme Court decision.
We discuss with Dr. Malcolm the broader issues of the Constitution, and how its preeminence is being challenged in the wake of Emergency Declarations. Who really has the authority here? She describes historically if other situations have ever impacted the US in any way like Covid has, with rights stripped by stay-home and business shut down orders. Does our First Amendment rights supersede our governor’s power to take them away?
Governor Brown vs The Constitution
All that to set the stage for our second guest as we take a very deep dive into what states are facing with some governors’ overreach. A couple of weeks ago, we spoke with Oregon Senator, Dennis Linthicum. He told us the governor is getting around the Oregon Constitution by not relying on the Constitution. She is, instead, relying statutory power. But isn’t Oregon’s Constitution the supreme law of the land? And isn’t the U.S. Constitution even higher than that?
“The governor’s attorneys argue that the balance between the governor’s executive orders and the freedom to practice religion favors the governor.”
We speak with Kevin Mannix (of Common Sense for Oregon) who is one of the attorneys that represents churches and businesses suing Governor Kate Brown and her administration’s emergency orders to shut things down.
Incredibly, her attorneys have actually argued in their motion to dismiss, that her powers are greater than the Constitution. And that’s just the tip of what she’s said.
The Church Lawsuit in Oregon
Tune in to hear Kevin Mannix’s response and line of attack as he fights for church members to gather for worship as they please. Along with the fight for businesses who’ve been at the whim of the Governor, who deigned to allow some to remain open while closing others. Including churches. Mr. Mannix talks about the lawsuit, it’s status, and what it means if their injunction is given the affirmative. Are there signs she is backing down?
Listen this weekend to get some very important answers.

Air Dates: April 11th & 12th, 2020 | Dr. Bud Pierce & Pastor Jeff Poush
This Week: Oregon’s Corona virus lockdown continues, in spite of models that have proven consistently to be consistently wrong. Which leaves us to wonder, why is the corona virus lockdown still in place?
One of the questions that has truly troubled us at I Spy is, if we’ve spent billions on healthcare in Oregon and 100s of billions nationally, where did all that money go? Especially in light of how unprepared medical providers were for a crisis.
Does anyone remember when Governor Kitzhaber ran on the fact that “we must be prepared” — and then tossed Oregon’s healthcare system on its ear in in his grand “health care transformation”? But from all reports coming out of Oregon Health Authority (OHA) and media services, prepared has turned into an oxymoron.
Corona Virus Lockdown: Questions for Bud Pierce
In our Part Two interview with Dr. Bud Pierce, an oncologist and hematologist specialist, we take on the numbers. Numbers that are being put out by Oregon’s own OHA, along with those from the federal governments, that depend on models so very reminiscent of climate change models. Overblown and/or unreliable but designed to evoke responses from the public.
One question we have is about the deaths. Deaths that, according to CDC guidelines, are being attributed to COVID-19 even without tests to verify they did, in fact, have the virus.
Theoretically, according to the guidelines, if you committed suicide, and might have had COVID-19, then Corona virus could be listed on the death certificate as the cause of death. Thus adding to the total of Coronavirus deaths. Is this just a little odd? We talk to Dr. Pierce what protocols are in place for how corona virus deaths are counted along with other troubling methods being used. And do we do this for other diseases?
28% of US Counties have NO cases.
80% of US Counties have 25 cases or less.
86% of all cases located in just 6% of US Counties.
Why is no one with a megaphone telling you these facts?
It’s not a conspiracy.
They’re just not good at the big picture.
Or good at math.

Listener Questions
We also wanted to have him back on to ask a question we’d wanted to ask him last week: What will we do next year when virus and flu season starts up again? Plus. We ask him questions from listeners who wrote in this week, wanting to know such things as the reliability of the numbers being used? Can the virus be transferred to pets? Has the curve flattened here in Oregon? And does he ever see a time when we go back to handshakes and hugs?
Corona Virus Lockdown’s Impact on Churches
Which leads us into the second half of our show, and the impact of Gov. Kate’s decision on large groups — especially churches.
With it being Easter weekend we brought in Pastor Jeff Poush of Salem First Baptist. During the pandemic when so much of our focus is on our physical health and the health of on our economy, what can people do for their spiritual health? We ask Pastor Poush the efforts his church is undertaking to support the spiritual health of their members during a time of physical separation and social distancing.
What If the Corona Virus Lockdown Continues?
We also discuss how the pandemic and ban on large groups has affected his church. And what if this continues? Are there concerns for churches regarding First Amendment rights? And how not gathering as a congregation may impact future events for churches? And, with it being Easter weekend, we find out some of the inspirational and exciting things Pastor Poush and his colleagues’ have planned for Easter morning service.
Don’t miss this informative and uplifting show. For Easter, it’s a time of renewal — and perhaps that’s the message to take to heart.

Original Air Dates: Dec. 7 & 8, 2019 | Dallas Jenkins & James Hirsen
This Week: The nonsense of listening to non-witnesses who try to testify about what they didn’t hear, but were sure that what they didn’t hear was something that someone thought, continues.
We tried to take a break from that nonsense by recognizing the start of Advent—and at least we get halfway there. The first half our show, we welcome back Dallas Jenkins.
The Light Side: The Chosen
Mr. Jenkins is the director and producer for an incredible series The Chosen, the largest crowd-funded media project ever. Everyday people helped launch this incredible project to be a part of creating a series depicting Jesus and the everyday people He chose to be a part of his earthly ministry.

We talk with Mr. Jenkins to get more insight into the series, which just launched episodes 5–8, his perceptions on the stories he chose for the series, and the new and exciting ways to watch and share it with people all around the globe. It’s a truly remarkable way to share Jesus’ message and life, right before Christmas.
The Dark Side: Impeachment
Impeachment: Democrats try to steal the presidency
Then, dark side. We’d planned to talk Christmas, movies, pop-culture and a little politics with our next guest, James Hirsen. But then just hours before our interview, Nancy Pelosi took to the mic and announced that—despite Wednesday’s disastrous hearings with the highly partisan testimonies from the Democrats’ “constitutional experts”—the Democrats were lurching forward to draft articles of impeachment.
So, instead of talking Christmas we tap into James Hirsen wearing his attorney hat, and his recent articles of why the Democrats really should not want the impeachment to head to the Senate. Mr. Hirsen walks us through his analysis of how they’re moving forward in spite of the reality of no evidence.
And don’t miss his discussion on how President Trump’s almost off-hand inquiry about Ukraine having the Crowd Strike server may have been what really set off the latest impeachment attempt and why. Where is the server and why hasn’t it been turned over? Or destroyed like so many other pieces of hardware that had evidence on the Democrats?
Democrats in power are probably a little nervous about that.

Show Summary: After the Holocaust, Jews and the rest of the world pledged “never again.” But a mere two generations later, Evelyn Markus had to flee the EU’s antisemitism for America—only to find antisemitism on the rise here too. What happened? And why?
To download the show, right-click the mic, and then “Save Link As…” or use the handy player below
Original Air Dates: Nov 16 & 17, 2019 | Dr. Evelyn Markus
This Week: A look at the rise of “acceptable hate”: antisemitism. The world seems to have forgotten the Holocaust, because right now antisemitism is surging again in Europe. And lest you think this is merely “anti-Israel”, you need to know that Leftist politicians have been spotted in marches where shouts of “Hamas! Hamas! Jews to the gas!” have filled the streets.
How is this happening? And why?
Antisemitism: Big-Government Sponsored Hate
Big government demands conformity from its subjects. And uniformity. You must be part of the group and those outside the desired conformity, are labelled dissidents, and targeted for hate. And even removal. We’ve seen it before throughout history with the Holocaust but we’re seeing it again now in places like Hong Kong.
Surprisingly, we’re also seeing it from the Left right now in the EU and even right here in the U.S. It’s not just the Left’s embrace of socialism that’s worrying, it’s the fringe elements of hate: antisemitism. While not unique to the Left, hatred of Israel and, by extension, Jews, seems to have become almost mainstream within the Far Left.
This is deeply worrisome. Especially to someone whose parents lived through the Holocaust.
Why Antisemitism Matters
Because the rise of antisemitism gives rise to hate of all sorts. The snowball effect of hate spreads and it becomes mob hate – not just the hate of individuals but of hate directed to an entire race. The mob hate finds its way to those in power who begin to preach the politics of hate and the hatred of a race simply because of their existence.
This week, we’re pleased to welcome Dr. Evelyn Markus, an activist against antisemitism. An author and speaker, she is the hand behind Never Again is Now, a terrific film about not forgetting the lessons of the holocaust in the face of rising antisemitism in Europe and even right here at home
Never Again is Now
“Never Again is Now” is available on Amazon Prime
Dr. Markus’ parents lived through the worst of the politics of hate. After The Netherlands were conquered, the Jews—who had been welcomed and lived a quiet, wonderful life in The Netherlands—were targeted by the Nazis. Then, after what they thought were incidental acts of discrimination, the Jewish people realized too late that things were growing out of control. Forced to wear yellow stars affixed to their clothes and before long, entire families were loaded into trains without knowing where they were going. And it was too late to stop it.
And, cruelly, neighbors turned on neighbors. Even worse, collaborators turned in those in hiding or who might have escaped. Neighborhoods were emptied never to see many of their once friends, ever again.
Dr. Markus’ parents survived the Nazi occupation — miraculously escaping with their entire family intact when many of their friends had only a few family members survived or were wiped out altogether. Dr. Markus talks to us about her parents’ life, what it was like for them to go through it all, and the very real world of seeing how good people behaved when their lives were at stake. Some who you’d think would be brave crumbled, while others who hardly appeared destined for greatness, did great things.
Antisemitism on the Rise? Again?
But Dr. Markus’ story doesn’t end there. That’s really just the beginning. Her story is about her realization that—despite the shadow of WWII and so many personal stories of loss—that antisemitism was rearing its ugly head in Europe after 9/11. Things became so bad that she left Europe, only to realize it was spreading in her newly adopted homeland: the U.S.
Join us for a spellbinding look at the rise of hate. And what can be done, what must be done.

Show Summary: Storytelling is incredibly powerful. We’re hard-wired for it. Is that why the political Far Left, Facebook, Twitter, and Hollywood are all trying to censor the Right—especially Christians? (Jump to podcast…)

This Week: There are many breaking news stories this week that center on the Flynn case and those who were in power that manipulated events, and then the messaging, to create illusions through storytelling techniques. It’s in the same vein of Disinformation, which we’ve recently covered. This week we take a break from all the breaking news of the Russian collusion hoax, except for one thing, how storytelling is usually won by the far-left.
Using Storytelling Techniques over Facts
People love a good story and if it’s presented well and is intriguing, it becomes believable. To the point that stories can become more believable (and certainly more memorable) than the reality.
Is this why mainstream media stories have taken on the fascination of a reality TV show? They’re staged with heroes and villains in ways that borrow from storytelling techniques to make their version of the story more believable than the facts themselves. Like Trump and Ukraine quid pro quo.
Hollywood: Epicenter of Storytelling
The political Left does this with far more skill than the Right. Hollywood certainly knows this with the billions they make off of storytelling. And that’s where they get you twice, because many times when news stories become too much reality TV, folks turn to “entertainment” as a way to escape—only to be listening to storytelling that often goes against their beliefs and values.
Hollywood has created a vacuum of messaging when Christians allowed the Far Left to take control and stopped going to movies (like who can blame them?), which allowed Hollywood to gravitate to their liberal counterparts in politics and the media.
Going over the Walls: The Chosen
But as in the story of David and Goliath, small nuggets of Christian storytelling continued to rise through the noise. And Christians are finding ways around the Hollywood paradigm. Enter Dallas Jenkins—director of the series, The Chosen—who raised $10 million dollars online, the largest amount ever from online crowd-sourcing for a film series.
The Chosen is a tremendous series about the life of Jesus told from a unique perspective. Staying out of Hollywood’s normal methods for creating and distributing a film, Mr. Jenkins went directly to the people, who in turn stood up to support this incredible project. And it paid off.
The Chosen: Breaking Down Barriers
With the funding he needed, Jenkins created a stunning series with all of the production value you’d see in even more expensive projects, like Amazon’s Jack Ryan series. Created as a multi-season series, the first four episodes are now free to view if you go to thechosen.tv, where you can download it as an app, watch it on your laptop, or stream to your TV.
Tune in this week to hear what has made this series so successful and why, with hundreds of films and TV shows already out there about Jesus, theirs has been such a success.
Hirsen: Why Hollywood Targets Christians
Then we welcome back James Hirsen, who continues the discussion of the different ways filmmakers, that Hollywood studios don’t support, are using to get their storytelling into the mainstream. He discusses the shift in the way stories will reach consumers in this evolving technical world—and how the far-left has been able to maximize their hold on Hollywood, through culture and lifestyle.
Hollywood and The Left’s Censorship
But with all these fascinating stories and their end-around on Hollywood, there is a deeper movement by the Far Left to censor the political Right and especially Christians. Censorship is the new weapon in their attacks. We’ve already by Democrat candidates like Kamala Harris to actually censor the President of the United States from Twitter, (which would force him to use the Leftist media to try to talk to the American people.
Make no mistake. This is not mere “persuasion” attempts. This is a genuine effort to silence opposition of the Left. (See every socialist and communist nation ever.) And the Left and Hollywood are getting support for their censorship from an unlikely place.
Tune in to hear what happened when one director decided to push back.

This Week: Over the past few months we’ve been able to experience what President Trump has done for our courts, especially the 9th Circuit. There have actually been decisions made in the past few weeks that support things like, oh you know, the rule of law.
With just that one amazing change, Trump may finally be able to make a decision without being hauled into court, as the Left tries any trick to try stop. And this subtle but important change means we can look at some of the new rules knowing they may actually be enacted.
Good News for the Endangered Species Act
One of those are incredibly important changes he’s made to the Endangered Species Act. And, naturally, what’s being reported about simple changes that could lead to actual recovery of these species is being mis-reported that it will destroy a “vitally needed” government program.
This act that was to save animals from extinction because the money resource for far-left organizations who abused it through their sue-and-settle actions. Rather than trying to protect animals from harm they wanted to raise funds by suing while having prelimary agreements from Deep State bureaucrats to happily ensure the government would lose its case so that they could pay out high and outrageous attorney fees back to them. A legal loop hold that until recently was handing over millions to pro-environmental-anti-human groups.
With that atrocious practice eliminated, we turn our focus to the changes Trump’s administration has actually made to the ESA and its new benefits to species and to landowners. Dr. Zybach walks us through what he’s seen in how the landowner is now empowered to help with the ESA and why that’s a good thing.
Also, don’t miss his personal encounter with the Endangered Species Act, Oregon’s “other Spotted Owl”, the Marbled Murrelet. It’s a good example of abuse by the scientific community and what happens when you sacrifice science on the altar of politics. (You can download his article, Oregon Coast Range Old-Growth: Part III, Marbled Murrelet Habitat.)
Good News from Hollywood. Wait, what…?
Kanye West September 2019 Album leaks, Jesus is King
Then we turn to Hollywood, the last place we expected to see good news this week and talk with James Hirsen about one star of pop culture who is making a dramatic change —to Christian music.
Kanye West, who recently became a born-again Christian, has a new album coming out in September. Mr. Hirsen walks us through Kanye and his wife, Kim Kardashian, have a tremendous impact on pop culture and why the Far Left may push back against them. Or just flat out turn on them. Because, you know, kids listening to an enlightened and positive message is clearly so dangerous.
We also have a momentary dip into the darker side of Bernie Sanders who wants population control because of (drum roll) global warming. He wants to sacrifice life to save us from death, sigh.
But we only stay on the dark side for a little bit and quickly turn back to some more good news—the newest Christian movie, Overcomer, and its powerful message.
This week, it’s all good fun, and uplifting, except for Bernie’s message. But then again, when is anything socialist ever good news?

A former cultural jihadist – watch the incredible video of Kamal’s journey
This Week: As we prepare for our shows, we spend hours developing our discussion topics, researching them, and developing questions. But we always wonder what the unexpected will bring. And our guest this week, former jihadist Kamal Saleem, did just that. Brought us the unexpected.
Don’t miss our conversation that reveals the unexpected: Iranian special forces have crossed the border and are already operating in the US.
Muslims in America
While the seventy-some Muslims running for Congress in 2020 has gotten some media attention, there’s another group that may be even more worrisome. Listen in to find out more
Also tune in to hear about America’s critical two years. As a former cultural jihadist, this is Kamal’s specialty. After all, he was trained to come here and sabotage America from within. And that included turning immigrant Muslims against their adopted country.
Support Kamal’s Ministry!
Kamal needs your support to reach out to Muslims, to bring them to the love and peace he has found—and to fight for America, not fight against Her.
What We’re Fighting and Why We Must
And what if the country disappears? No, that’s not hyperbole. That really is what’s at stake. What if the Constitution gets mired down by those who hate Americans and America itself through our own elections? America was founded on uniquely Judeo-Christian principles, leading to a country that is a beacon of freedom in the world. Tune in to find out why we are that beacon and how its under attack — from without and from within.
Because from the standpoint of socialists, communists, and yes even from Islam’s standpoint, there can never be and never will be any peace — until America as we know it is destroyed.
Why? It’s simple. As long as America remains as a bastion of freedom, as long as America stands, no communist or socialist or theocrat or dictator can ever be safe. Because as long as America stands, the people of their countries will always look to America and say, why can’t we have their freedoms?
Don’t miss this week’s show to find out what every American needs to know.
