  • TOO SEXUALLY EXPLICIT FOR TV, BUT ALLOWED IN SCHOOLS!?!

    TOO SEXUALLY EXPLICIT FOR TV, BUT ALLOWED IN SCHOOLS!?!
    Nov 26 2024
    When your kids are home for the holidays, ask them about the books they're reading in school... and be prepared to be shocked and outraged! Not just Virginia's problem-coming to a school near you, too! Would you believe that an ad - banned by network television stations in Virginia - because it is unlawful to show such sexually explicit materials - is the current reading material provided to Virginia's students? Several local TV stations refused to air Independent Women’s Voice’s ad: “Worth 1,000 Words”, depicting sexually explicit materials available in VA public schools. Federal communications law prohibits televisions from showing adults such materials, even when the same materials have been available to kids in Virginia public schools. IWV accordingly created a modified version of its 30-second ad, which shows a blurred version of what kids see, to conform with that law. But today, stations again refused to air the ad, claiming it still is ostensibly not suitable for late night adult viewing. Today's guests, Kelsey Bolar and Julie Gunlock, are Senior Policy Analysts at Independent Women's Voice, an organization located in Washington, D.C. Both the first uncensored ad and the second with censored images may be viewed at ToxicSchools.org. Parents can also take action at the website and make their voices heard. Federal law prohibits TV stations from airing obscene, indecent or profane content, marketers must follow text message industry S.H.A.F.T regulations, and social media companies have similar rules in place that make it impossible to actually show the public the explicit content. Yet, when it comes to Virginia public school students, these protections are thrown out the window. In 2016, then-Governor McAuliffe vetoed a bill that would have allowed parents to block sexually explicit books in school, and in 2021 he stated that he didn’t think parents should have a say about what is imposed on their children.This is despite the specific protections Virginia law gives the rights of parents. Again, don't think this is only a problem for Virginia-it's coming to a school near you, too!

  • Ending Upside Down Reset, Wokeism, Globalism and Other Dangers

    Ending Upside Down Reset, Wokeism, Globalism and Other Dangers
    Nov 19 2024
    Does the world feel upside down to you? Do words like Wokeism, Globalism and Great Reset make your head spin? Today's guest, Mark Gober, will help you figure it all out and set things nightside up again. He's the author of An End to the Upside Down Reset: The Leftist Vision for Society Under the “Great Reset”—and How It Can Fool Caring People into Supporting Harmful Causes. He will also explain how Trump has stopped the Great Reset in its tracks and is about to reset them - just in time. Whether you realize it or not, a vision for society—called the Great Reset—was formally unveiled by the World Economic Forum (WEF) in 2020, several months after COVID-19 emerged. The WEF is one of the most influential bodies in the world and has ties to the highest levels of global governments and industries. In fact, its Great Reset has implications for our collective future in terms of culture, politics, economics, the environment, technology, and metaphysics. So if you don't think this subject affects you and your family—think again. In Mark Gober's An End to the Upside Down Reset, he deconstructs the Great Reset's stated vision. He demonstrates that while the proposed societal changes might sound compassionate, in practice they could be harmful. Moreover, the Great Reset largely aligns with a leftist worldview that dominates modern education and media—and it becomes even more entrenched because of unconscious psychological biases. Breaking through the fog of this programming allows one to see that the Great Reset risks bringing about a dystopia. Mark is also the author of the seven books “Upside Down” series, which spans politics, economics, medicine, cosmology, and more. We will also touch upon them and put these topics right side up again.

    All Quiet on the Israeli Front - Or Is It?
    Nov 12 2024
    Although the Middle East war is not over, it seems a little quieter these daysl. But, we cannot let it lull us into complacency. Iran has promised nuclear retaliation against Israel, and Hamas and Hezbollah are not throwing in the towel. Today's guest, Harley Lippman, has just returned from Israel and will tell us what it's really like at this point in time. As Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu faces mounting pressure to secure the release of captives from Gaza, the urgency for a Gaza ceasefire is reaching a fever pitch. Citizens gather in Israel’s major cities, demanding that Netanyahu take decisive action and agree to a deal that would bring home the remaining hostages. But, is this the right thing to do? It's a pivotal moment in the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict, and Harley Lippman brings unparalleled expertise to this conversation. Having recently traveled to Israel, Harley met with Prime Minister Netanyahu, key officials, and families of hostages, providing him with invaluable firsthand insights. His deep involvement in peace negotiations and his intricate understanding of the geopolitical dynamics of the Middle East place him in a unique position to offer expert commentary on what could drive Netanyahu to agree to a deal with Hamas.
