Attention. You're listening to the Todd Huff Radio Show, America's home for conservative
not bitter talk radio. Be advised. The content of this program has been
documented to prevents and even cure liberalism, and listening may cause you to lean
to the right. Here's your Conservative but not Bitter host, Todd Huff.
Well, greetings, my friends. It is a pleasure to be here.
Thank you for joining us. If you want to be part of today's discussion,
Todd at Todd Huff Show dot com. You can also textas as always
three one seven two zero twenty eight thirty. I appreciate those that do message
us. We either trying to talk about it on the program. Obviously we're
not able to do that every time, but I do read all the messages
and we at least respond. Give me a couple of days, as you
know, I've been well NRB Orlando. Is something on my schedule here that's
put me a little behind schedule, I guess as well for this week.
Not complaining, just trying to explain what's going on here. It's a pleasure
again to be here. Thanks for joining us. So yesterday, at the
end of the program, I said, look, you know this we were
talking about the issue in the state of Nebraska, and again it doesn't I'm
not you know, I've never even been to Nebraska yet, So this isn't
so much about that as much as it is about what is happening in states
around the country. And I think we have to we have to be mindful
of that. We have to think, Okay, this is happening here in
Nebraska. We also talked yesterday about something that happened in Florida where the NAACP
said it was a hostile environment to Black Americans and members of the LGBTQI A
plus whatever community. And we talked about that on yesterday's show. And you
can always buy the way you can always go always go to the podcast,
or to go to the website todhufshow dot com slash listen and you can listen
for free to any episode. But we talked about that yesterday. But I
do want to pick up and kind of continue, at least that's where I
want to start today. We've got other things as usual in the stack of
stuff, but I want to at least start in completing a conversation we had
yesterday. So state of Nebraska has recently passed legislation. They condensed it into
one bill. It's a seventeen or eighteen page bill, something that you could
read rather quickly. And in that bill it addressed two primary hot button social
issues, if you will. One of those is a twelve week abortion ban
in the state, with some exceptions for rape and incest. It does not
address the band is not address in any way whatsoever ectopic pregnancies as well.
So that's part of the bill. But the other part of the bill limits
the ability of miners to undergo the process of changing their sexual or biological identity.
Now I know to some degree those of you that truly understand and respect
and appreciate sciences, as they say, we understand you understand that that is
in our DNA right, whether you have a pair of X chromosomes or an
X Y chromosome, that will determine your biological sex. That is what it
is. It is scientific, It is in nature. The Bible says that
God created male and female. That is what we have. That does not
mean that there's not a spectrum, not of not of what they want you
to think, meaning there's so many variations of male and female, but there's
different individuals, right, We're different as people, meaning one individual maybe exhibits
what we would traditionally call highly masculine traits, and one individual might demonstrate what
we would consider highly feminine traits. Or maybe there's a combination. Maybe there's
you know, when I was growing up, there was a term called I
mean, I'm not good. I'm not saying this is good, bad or
whatever, but there were girls that had, you know, that were a
little bit more rugged. People would refer to as tom boys. I'm not
saying that's good batter and I'm not I'm just saying that we've always recognized there
were personality differences while also recognizing that someone was still biologically female or male,
and that didn't affect it. By the way, if gender is not connected
to our biological sex, then why are we even talking about changing biological sex
based upon how someone identifies from a gender perspective. I mean, to me,
you can't have it both ways. In other words, if you're gonna
say, hey, Todd, my gender biology is female, I've got this,
you know, scientific biological makeup, this is my DNA. However,
I identify my true person is a male. For example, maybe I've got
again a female anatomy, female biologically speaking, but I feel like I'm a
male I identify someone might say as a male on that spectrum of gender,
as they would say, so therefore I need to have the ability to change
my biological sex. I mean, to me, the first immediate question is
why do you need to do that if gender is not the same as biological
sex. To me, you can't have it both ways. That's pretty straightforward
in simple concept for me, were either talking about biological sex or we are
not talking about biological sex. But whatever you think. So, if you're
an adult and you want to do that, you want to change your physical
anatomy, and you can find someone who's a medical professional who for whatever reason
is open to doing it. I suppose that your prerogative. But here's a
couple of things. Number One, I, with all due respect you as
a human being. And yesterday we're getting to this, this speech, and
it wasn't really a speech. It was a series of chance yesterday on the
Senate floor. Well, it didn't happen yesterday, happened Friday on the Senate
floor. We just played it yesterday in the state of Nebraska, this series
of chance about transgender people and so forth. But don't expect me or anyone
else, for that matter, to affirm that your reality or what you believe
to be true is actually, in a realistic sense true. Now you can
say the same thing to me, by the way, you could say,
Todd, I don't believe that God exists. I don't believe that someone or
something created the universe. We're here by chance, and all this stuff.
You can think, I'm delusional, That's okay, I welcome in to do
that. It's you know, it doesn't offend me, and it doesn't change
what I believe. And that's that to me, is the first pushback I
would give to people who say these things where they need me, they need
you to say that we agree that simply because they feel a certain way that
facts do not matter, that truth doesn't matter, or that their truth should
suddenly become our truth, which there's no such thing as your truth and my
truth. There is the truth, right, and these things all that.
You can't force someone to believe what you believe. And this is essentially what
this movement is about. It's and now it doesn't mean every person who's transgender
thinks this way, but the militant the militant part of the movement, the
part, the part of the movement that wants to use government to change culture,
to change worldview, to make people abandon the Judean Christian principles and so
forth that are inner open in this country's great history, which they are absolutely
If that is someone's intention, then we're going to have We're gonna have a
problem because I'm not going to go along with that now. I also think
it doesn't matter, and you should know this if you listen to this program
for any length of time. In fact, I jokingly sometimes I used to
say on this program, I don't care what you believe. I walking me
to the program. I do care what you believe. In fact, I
want to give you a heads up. I'm going to do something that the
mainstream media never does. I'm gonna do something that the folks and the jokers
and the make believe journalists at CNN and MSNBC would never say to you.
And that's this. I hope to persuade you favorably to the ideas of constitutional
conservatism. I hope to persuade you favorably to the beliefs and opinions of Judean
Christian thought of biblical truth. I hope to be able to do that.
You are free to reject it. You are free to say I'm a crazy
man for believing those things. You're free to do any of those things.
I'm not going to go to the government and chant outside or on the Senate
floor, or outside of their offices or in the streets that they must make
you if you disagree with me, adhere to what I believe, and accept
me, and accept everything that I say is true. You don't have to
do that. You don't have to do that. We persuade, we don't
force, we don't manipulate. That's what's being done in amongst these radical transgender
folks, and they misrepresent what's being done. As it pertains to some of
this legislation, the legislation is not designed to stop adults from having a transitioning
process. The legislation is designed to protect protect children from being led down this
path when they are not old enough or anywhere near aware enough to make decisions
that radically transform their lives for the rest of their lives. In fact,
there are examples of people. You don't have to look far. There are
examples of people on social media who have undergone a transgender process, changing their
physical their physical bodies from male to female or female to male, whichever way,
and they regret it tremendously. Some of this will lament that they have
crossed a threshold of no return where there is nothing they can do to go
back to how it was. They've taken too many steps, They've taken too
many hormones, you know, their voices changed, the facial hair has grown
or not, whatever, all these things have taken place, and so now
they're doubly confused and doubly I don't just feeling trapped and without options. And
so while you might think it's a legitimate concern or a legitimate choice for someone
to change their genders, surely, surely the goodness as adults, we should
be able to come to the point of reasoning that children should not be in
a position to speak with medical professionals who oftentimes are paid well. This is
how they make money, right, And I'm not here to smash capitalism.
I'm a pro capitalist guy. But if you put someone who's emotionally vulnerable and
young, and they're having a movement kind of pushed upon that, and they
sit down with medical professionals who give them a bunch of bunk. And I've
said I've told friends us By the way, I can take a break here
to make sure if a full my New Year's resolution of staying on staying on
the time clock for the first segment. But if you're wondering what to do,
well, this will upset some people, but I'm gonna say it anyway.
If you're wondering what to do as a career path and you have a
heart to serve people in a counseling sense, I'm telling you right now this
to me is one of the easiest predictions to make, and it's sad.
I don't take any pleasure in saying this. But if you specialize in helping
to serve or counsel people who have had gender reassignment surgery or gone through the
process of transitioning and then they regret it, then they have questions and concerns
and all these other negative thoughts I mean emotional health, you know, just
all the things that happen as a result of that choice. If you can,
there's going to be a huge need in this category in the next i
don't know, the next few years, maybe even quicker than that, But
if you're in the field of mental health now, they probably won't teach that
at most schools because they're going to teach you instead to be affirming, affirming
of people that are wanting to change their gender. But if you look at
something from a biblical base, biblical perspective, and you believe in that,
there are people out there that will, I'm sure that will train and provide
that advice because there are going to be a ton of people, a ton
of people who are going to regret this decisions. Pulling already shows this,
but we're not allowed to say that. We're not allowed to say that at
all. So this bill that's in that's been passed in the Nebraska legisla nature
is not about trying to keep adults from making these decisions, though I would
still maintain personally, I should have every right to say I don't think that
that's a good idea at all. I don't think I don't think that you
should try to force me to believe that that is acceptable, or that that's
reasonable, or that that is the way that that we should try to deal
with these problems and questions. But that's still you're right, it's a different
game altogether, a different thing altogether when we're talking about youth, and again,
can youth do things like buy tobacco products, or drive a car,
or vote, or join the military by a firearm, a handgun, get
a tattoo, right, there's reasons that that's not allowed in states, and
it's because we want people to make this decisions understanding that these things can affect
them the rest of their lives, and that going through the process of puberty
is a difficult and challenging process as your body and your mind begin developed to
develop differently and so forth, and you're not capable of understanding the ramifications of
all these decisions. Dramatic, drastic decisions, my friends, that could literally
ruin your life, ruin your life. Those things should not be something that
youth, the youth of America. Young people are allowed to just jump into
head first, and those of us who are interested in making sure that doesn't
happen are not anti anything. We're actually pro mental health of young people and
children. We are pro allowing people to make fully informed decisions, not decisions
based upon a stage of life as they are beginning to develop and grow and
mature and change. That's what we're pro we're pro protecting them from well sometimes
teachers and administrators and other forces in the community, on social media, other
influencers that are pushing these sorts of transagenda ideas, And of course they do
that whenever it's convenient to do that. But then they'll move on in another
five or ten years to something else altogether, leaving in many cases these folks
who were influenced by these decision makers or folks that had influence over their lives.
They've moved on to something else, leaving these young people to deal with
a whole host of problems that now exists as a result of making life altering
decisions at a very young young age. That's what this is about. It's
not about anything else, and not about hating people. It's not about any
of that. So timeouts in order. I'm gonna play this again part of
the sound bite. For those of you that missed it at the end of
yesterday's program, you'll get to hear it today. You're gonna hear this in
your sleep. But I want to use this to talk about the ways that
the left. This is how the left thinks, and I use the word
thinks very loosely, it's really how they feel, it's how they motivate,
it's how they they're insidious. They're insidious. They repeat things over and over
and over and over again to the point to where there's no substance behind it.
It just sounds right. People get the keywords and understand what those keywords
are meant to do, what they're meant to inspire. And then and then
these individuals make decisions or form beliefs, at least sometimes make life altering decisions.
But they form beliefs predicate or built upon these empty talking points. And
that's what she did from the Senate floor in the state of Nebraska the other
day late last week. So we'll talk about that next segment. My friends,
quick time out. Though you're listening here to conservative not better talk.
I'm your host, Todd huff back in just a minute. Welcome back to
my friends. So I want to play again. I'm not gonna play the
whole thing. You're gonna want to scream at me. Oz told me yesterday
you cannot play that whole thing, and she's kind of right. We can
play it. One thing I do want you to notice, from the beginning
to the end is the increase in the intensity. I mean, at one
point in this performance, this dramocrat, it sounds like she may be in
need of a defribulator very quickly, or maybe some resuscitations. She gets very
very agitated, or she at least want you to think she's agitated. I
don't know. I try to. There's a performance, aren't here. But
there's also people that, I mean, they buy into this stuff. So
again to set the stage, she is against the bill that passed the Nebraska
state legislature. Again, it doesn't matter where this is, because the same
exact thing is, if it's not come to your state, it is coming
to your state. It may still come to the federal government as well.
It may end up some of these things may end up on the docket of
the US Congress. Who knows, they may be part of the twenty twenty
four campaign. They certainly will in some way, shape, manner, or
form. But right now these things are being addressed by states. And so
I've never been to Nebraska, so this isn't even particular to a place that
I've been. But again, the lessons here apply outside of any geographical boundaries
that may exist. Instead, this is something that is again happening in your
state, or soon will happen. This is just how it's argued. So
she's on the Senate floor protesting this bill. Starts off by reading the words
of the chant, goes into a full blown chant, where again it seemed
as though she was moments away from needing resuscitation or defibrillator. But I want
to break this down because this is what the left. This is what the
left does. So here it is she's being announced or recognized to speak on
the Senate floor, and I just want you to listen to this. I'm
not going to subject you to the whole thing, but just to give you
an idea. This is how the left operates here. It is let to
speak. There we go and thank you, mister President. Trans people belong
here, we need trans people, we love trans people. Kayla Kavanaugh's her
name. That's what they're saying out there. And as I mentioned yesterday,
circle in the rotunda, same over again, trans people belong here, we
need trans people, we love trans people. She's doing on the microphone.
Trans people belong here, we need trans people, we love trans people.
Trans people belong here. We need trans people. We love trans people.
Trans people belong here. We need trans people, we love trans people.
Look, so she's in a trance as she says this. That's about a
minute into this stuff. So I want to get to the end of this.
This is about a minute and a half later. She she just keeps
repeating herself. She just keeps repeating herself at infinitum here. I don't know
how much time she was given on the floor, but nonetheless, this is
this is Remember the intensity level where I stopped it. Here's where it kind
of ends up. Blong here. We need chance people. We love chance
people. Transa belong here. We need chance people. We love dance people.
Dance Peva belong here. We need chance people. We love chance people.
Chance people belong here. We need chance people. We love chance people.
You matter, You matter. I am fighting for you, and I
will not stop. I will not stop today, I will not stop tomorrow.
You're loved, you matter, You're belong here. She walks away,
thankfully. She may she may have left something on the podium there for a
second, but there's the idea, right, So that's that's her protest.
That's how she's addressing this. Trans people belong here, we need trans people,
we love trans people. That's what she said, I don't know,
dozens of times from that microphone. And she went from reading it trans people
belong here, we need trans people, we love trans people, to screaming
it, which I won't do for the sake of your ears here today.
But that's again from the Senate floor. So I want to pause this,
pause this conversation, take a time out, and talk about this, just
tactically and strategically, how the left uses this sort of rhetoric, this sort
of form of argumentation. I guess if you want to call it that,
that's not what it even is. This is just emotionalism, is what this
is. Because who's well, I'll get into that after the break. She's
this, she's finding a straw man. She's building a straw man an argument
that the Republicans are certainly not making. Conser I'm certainly not making it.
Conservatives are not making it. But yet she's making it sound like the very
existence of a certain group of people is under attack, is threatened by the
conservative movement, the Republican Party. That's the intended the intended result here,
and it's delusional. It's the dumbest thing I've heard all weeks still as of
the time I'm saying these words right now. So but I want to talk
about this because this is the teachable moment. This is the moment that we
should point to and say, here's a case in point of how they fight
their quote unquote political battles. This is what they're doing, this is why
they do it, and this is how we have to combat it. So
I want to do that. On the other side of the break. Sit
tight, my friends. You're listening here to conservative not better talk. I'm
your host, the one and the only Todd Huff back in just a minute.
Welcome back, my friends. So, one of the things you'll notice
from the last segment if you listen to that chant, one of the things
the left I don't want to I'm gonna say they're good at it only because
it's effective. I wish it wasn't effective. It is effective, and they're
very good. They're very good at coming up with these catchy slogans and ways
of saying things, even if they're not the correct way of breaking them down.
I think Einstein somebody said, I think it was Einstein that said make
it as simple as possible, but not simpler. I'm a big believer in
that. I got a buddy who told who tells me that I have a
knack for putting the cookies on the bottom shelf, and I, as Rush
used to say, he tries to make the complex understandable. And that's a
good thing, but you don't want to misrepresent it whenever you're coming up with
an explanation. So if you're coming up with an analogy, it's appropriate that
the analogy be well consistently appropriate throughout all parts of the potential analogy, or
you specify and say, I'm I'm only using this analogy to illustrate this particular
point. That's what honest people do. People who are manipulators, which is
what we're dealing with. We're dealing with professional manipulators, professional deceivers in the
media and in politics. And I'm not just saying on the left, although
I am saying the radical leftists that I'm talking about, the godless radical leftist
has no basis for morality. They believe that the ends does in fact justify
the means. They don't believe in an absolute truth. They don't believe.
I'm talking about the godless radical left. Not every Democrat. Democrats are different.
That's a different group in this. My dad's a Union Democrat. He's
a reasonable human being. He has different opinions on some things, and some
things. The things that he has different opinions on, he's concerned about those
so much that it trumps, if you will, every other thing that he
and I would agree upon, which is actually quite a bit. And that's
why I say, if you are a Union Democrat, of blue dog democratic,
conservative Democrat, a moderate even I'm going to go as far to say
even a liberal Democrat, you and I, my friend, have more in
common. You have more in common with this constitutional, conservative, conservative,
not bitter individual here behind the microphone, then you have with the radical leftists
running your party today. And I think, deep down you know this.
I do. I think deep down you know this. And the radical leftists
of hijack the Democrat Party. They've turned it into the dramacrat party today,
which is what we just listened to last segment that was pure drama. That
was pure theater. It is not based in reality, is not rooted in
anything that is the slightest bit, the slightest bit even slightly resembling life as
we know it in America today. But these leftists have a way of coming
up with terms and phrases that sound right and often mean nothing, or they
mean something that isn't really applicable to the situation at hand. For example,
Odds and I were talking about this, some examples of this in recent years.
Hands up, don't shoot. That's what we were told about Michael Brown.
It one hundred percent did not happen, based upon testimony. Even the
Eric Holder Justice Apartment acknowledged as much. But that was the slogan, that
was the mantra that officer Wilson. Officer Wilson shot an unarmed black kid who
put his hands up, just did not happen. They called the bill in
Florida that De Santis signed don't say Gay Bill. There were billboards up about
this thing. Nowhere in the bill did it say it was illegal to say
the phrase gay or the word gay. That's not at all what this was
about. Right, they'll call things. I'm thinking of other things on the
fly. I've got some things jotted down here. They'll say a particular weapon
is an assault rifle. An assault rifle in fact, alluding to if not
directly stating that r in an AR fifteen, they would tell you means assault
rifle. That's not what it means. But that's what they will tell you
assault rifle, or they at least want you to come to that conclusion.
Black lives matter, Black lives matter, they chant that on the streets.
I believe that black lives matter. I also believe the white lives matter.
I believe that LGBTQ lives matter. I believe that trans lives matter. I
believe that unborn lives matter. I believe, my friends that all lives matter.
But see they won't agree with that. In fact, they say by
my using the phrase all lives matter, or even some of those other ones,
particularly if I was to say white lives matter, even though I agree
within that black lives also matter, I don't agree with what they're getting at
with their ultimate policy objectives and so forth. I don't agree with their perspective
on what the problems are that we're facing, or their analysis of those problems.
In two and twenty three. But I can agree in general with the
concept that the lives of black human beings absolutely matter. They mean exactly the
same amount as a white person's life. They mean exactly the same amount as
a Hispanic person's life. Male lives and female lives of exactly the same value
LGBTQ. And if I can say, straight lives matter same exact amount as
any other life, Christian lives and atheist lives are completely one hundred percent the
same value in the eyes of our creator. Now, it doesn't mean that
some people don't make more of their lives, right, They might do more
good in their life. Some people might do a lot of terrible, heinous
things with their lives. Some people might, you know, just kind of
take it easy through life and not accomplish anything, waste time, waste money,
be a burden on family members and so forth. But their life in
and of itself, the value of that human life is the same as any
other. Some people might do more. People might be more valuable in a
certain environment, meaning say, for example, when Peyton Manning, I'll go
back in time, or when Peyton Manning was healthy and with the Indianapolis Colts.
He was while his life was of the same value as every other cult
and every other fan in the stadium. His value on that football field to
the football team was greater, But not him, not he himself being more
valuable. He just was more valuable to what was trying to be done on
that football field, right and so, But context again is ignored in these
little slogans. My body my choice. Oh boy, that's one that gets
them going. My body my choice. Of course, if it's truly just
your body, it should be your choice. But the problem is it's not
your body. It's not your body when we're talking about the body of someone's
life that you're trying to terminate. In the case of abortion. Now you
can make another argument and say that my life matters more than that life,
and I can either agree or disagree or whatever. I disagree vehemently. By
the way, doesn't mean the mother again, perfect example, the mother's life
matters, so does the unborn child's life. Right. I mean, these
things are as clear and obvious to me as the noonday sun. Now they're
saying trans people are people. Yes, No one's saying they're not. You're
developed being a straw man. That's what they're doing. They'll use terms in
the abortion debait like fetus, even though it means little little human I think
in the original Latin. But the point is they're trying to do anything they
can to move perspective in their direction. Right, it's just a clump of
cells. It's something else that they'll say. This is a strategy. This
is a tactic. It works with people who either care a lot about being
accepted by the modern culture, or it matters to people who don't want to
take a stand for truth and they don't want to stand in opposition to this
morally depraved ideology and worldview, or to people who don't think about it.
And that's a big group of people, too apathetic. It sounds right,
well, of course, my body, my choice. Okay, but is
that what applies here? Is that really what you think that that means,
because my guess is it absolutely does not. Anyway, This is the tactic.
This is what they do, This is why they do it. Quick
time out is in order, though, my friends, sit tight back in
just a minute. Welcome back, my friends. I also just we don't
have a whole lot of time here remaining today. I want to shift gears
and the time we do you have remaining in reference an article that I'd come
across actually over the weekend, and Oz had mentioned this as well, Good
old Kamala Kamala Harris, vice President of the United States. She basically told
reporters that, hey, one thing that comes up when I'm in these meetings
around the world is the w NBA, all right, And we got people
just coming up and asking me about the w NBA. And of course this
was within the framework, I guess of the Brittany Grinder situation. A player
in the w NBA who was arrested in Russia for having marijuana and marijuana products
or whatever whatever it was. And there was a negotiation and we released her
or we traded her for some killer or some such thing. I can't can't
remember. I think it was, truly, you can go back and check.
But anyway, so Brittany Grinder comes back to America and suddenly is pleased
to be an American. Now, I will tell you my take on that
a lot of people are upset with her, and you know, she was
one that was I don't know if she was kneeling during the she kneeling during
the anthem, or was she she was just Distris. She wasn't a fan
of America. Now she is, and that's I mean, look, I
get it. I never understood it, but I suppose better late than never.
But now she's out there saying she couldn't they had their first game of
the season, or the first home game, I guess recently. I don't
follow the w NBA, but I saw this and she came out and she
said, you know how happy she was to be back, and she wanted
to stand for the anthem and see her flag and all this stuff, which
is good, I mean great. I hope she's had a change of heart.
But Kamala is out there telling us. So this comes up as a
regular subject of discussion around the world, the w NBA, probably probably whether
or not or why Americans don't pay their female athletes as much as male athletes,
and that sort of stuff. But none of this stuff is real.
None of it is real. Just like the rest of the show, we
talked about what the Left is out there performing as dramacrats on the stage.
The world is a stage. None of this is real. Britney Griner is
not a subject of discussion, not a serious discussion around and we have real
problems around the world. Brittney Grinner's return to the WNBA is not it.
Her coach said that she was shocked or dismayed or some such thing, that
it wasn't a sellout. I mean, give me a break. I just
can't anymore. I can take a time out. My friends back in just
a minute. Welcome back my friends. Winning moments here of the program.
But I do want to mention here that this program is of course made possible
by the folks that you hear advertising during during the breaks, whether you're listening
