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.
All right, my friends, I gotta tell you, I never thought
that I would say this. I never thought that I would say this,
But it appears to me, it appears to me that America's financial woes maybe
you maybe being used as political cover for the absolute destruction of the moral fabric
of our society. We'll talk about this today. Of course, the financial
woes and this debt ceiling deal is of course front and center as well.
We'll get to all these things in due course, my friends. If you
want to be part of the discussion today, you can email us Todd at
Toddhufshow dot com. You can also text us. That's right, my friends,
you can text us three one seven two one zero twenty eight thirty three
one seven two one zero twenty eight thirty. It's a pleasure to be here.
Always be sure to include always, always, always be sure to include
the appropriate amount of adoration and praise, which reminds me I did get a
message yesterday, got a message yesterday, which one we might get to a
little bit later, but I have to tell you there was not enough adoration
and praise. So just make sure most of you do a great job.
Just make sure that you think about that before you hit the SIND the SIND
button. And so where do we want to start today? I want to
start not with the debt limit debacle, the debt ceiling, debt limit mess
that we have in Washington, d C. I want to start in an
area that well wokeism is on the march here in this country. And I
don't think we fully comprehend or appreciate it isn't the right word. We fully
understand the level and the concentration of the attack that is being waged on the
culture of this great nation from every conceivable angle. And I know, I
know that I'm talking with folks who are very, very aware of what is
going on in our nation today, very concerned about a whole plethora of things,
including America's financial future, kicking the proverbial can of debt down the road,
not just to our children, not just to our grandchildren, not just
to our great grandchildren, not even just to our great great grandchildren. This
can has been kicked so far down the proverbial highway that people who haven't even
the people that are going to guide willing if we're all here at this point
in time, but the people who are going to be the parents and grandparents
of these folks that are going to be paying this back, haven't even been
a thought in the minds of people yet to give you an idea of how
far out that this debacle is taking us. With the debt ceiling, and
of course we'll talk about that in the later latter part of the program today,
but I want to start by talking about the woke assault on this country.
And we all know that this assault is. We know that it's coming
from a lot of angles. I just I don't know if it's possible to
stay up on everything enough to know the level and the intensity with which this
battle is being relentlessly waged on the American people. Now, what do I
mean let's start. I want to start here today. I want to start
by the term woke. What do I mean when I say the word woke.
I haven't went back and I found an article ABC news dot go dot
com. Isn't that clever and cute? Abc news dot go dot com?
Why does woke? Or excuse me, what does woke mean? And why
are some conservatives using it? And so this article purports to tell us the
meaning of the word woke, and it basically says that the original term which
I'm not, look, I'm not, this is not what this is about,
although they want to make it about this for a whole host of reasons.
But this was, they say ABC news dot dot com, which I've
never this hasn't been this is what This is not what I mean when I'm
talking about This is not what the average person means when they're talking about this.
But the media wants to conflate it for lots of reasons, one of
those reasons, of course, being that they can constantly malign an attack and
servatives for being racist and homophobic and so forth. But the term they say
here was originally coined by progressive throws that word progressive Black Americans and used in
racial justice movements in the early to mid nineteen hundreds. It says to be
woke politically in the black community means that someone is informed educated and conscious of
social justice and racial inequality. Miriam Webster Dictionary states, So now they're conflating
things. They're conflating the movement that was designed to spark and lead to the
civil rights movement in this nation with what is radical on the world state,
will on this will the world stage, and in American politics today, in
the American cultural battle today. So the term woke today, as I use
it, it is designed to explain, articulate, identify a group of people
or an individual, I guess somebody who has they would say been awakened,
been awakened to the systemic problems in this country. And it extends way past
racism. It's not just racism. Although this article points out that the term
began to capture some momentum in the Black Lives Matter movement in two Thousan fourteen,
pointing to Ferguson, Missouri, says, the protests here, the riots
were the practically burned part of that city down for a false narrative. By
the way, so people that were woke during the Ferguson riots were woke on
predicated. Their wokeness was predicated upon a story that did not happen. Hands
up, don't shoot, absolutely, unequivocally, without any question, did not
happen. But that, of course was the narrative back in those days,
and it has been used since to further this notion of defunding the police and
all sorts of things that we've seen since that particular point in time. Now,
DeSantis and his administration says that woke is the belief that there are systemic
injustices in American society and the need to address them. We reject woke ideology.
To Santa said that was in a speech on the night of his election
back in two thousand and twenty two. I reject wokeness as well. Wokeness
is ultimately designed to undermine and replace the culture and the historical collective worldview of
many Americans. It's Judaian Christian heritage, for example, It's foundations in Western
civilization, Western culture, its foundations in using logic in not just kind of
the what's often attributed to the far Eastern worldviews of the both and sort of
concept where things don't have to make sense. I'm not saying that this is
actually true, but this is often attributed to Eastern thought, the yin and
yang, so to speak. Um Western society, Western culture say it says
you know, we use logic, we use inference, we use critical thinking
to systematically think through and to solve issues and problems unemotionally. And if a
is said to be false, a cannot also said to be said to be
true in the same time relationship sort of situation. So for example, so
for example, someone cannot be um, say both in a car driving to
the airport while simultaneously being at home and a recliner. Right there is and
either or it's a forced reality where logic says the two things cannot cannot exist
together, they're mutually exclusive, can't be in the same place at the same
time effectively. So but wokeism, wokeism seeks to undermine this culture. Wokeism
seeks to replace this culture. And it's not so much now, I will
tell let me pause. The average woke cultural viewpoint is, oh boy,
I might get some grief over this. I don't think so from you all.
But the average wrote woke position and viewpoint is that is honestly is evil
and is completely and morally bankrupt. Now, there are certainly things that we
can disagree with as individuals disagree upon have differences of opinion and so forth.
That's okay, But we are talking about a worldview and something that is antithetical
both to reason and logic and what we know about human nature. It is
not compatible with those things. It is not compatible with how this nation was
established and set up to function. It is not something that is rooted in
deep moral values and principles and truth. In fact, that's why when we
travel we call it the truth toward, not that we've got it all figured
out, although if you listen to this program long you will think we are
darned close. But it's not that we have it all figured out. It's
just that we have had truth revealed to us in many instances, or we've
discovered truth along this way, along this journey as human beings. And when
we identify that truth, we must defend that truth because there are people who
are actively in the process of trying to eliminate that truth. For example,
one of those examples would be that we are either born male or female,
and this is being this whole transagenda is being forced on the American people.
It's not just the trans agenda, though it is the trans agenda. It's
the LGBTQ i AA plus two P or whatever it is agenda being thrust upon
the American people. It is this atheistic worldview, this anti god worldview in
many instances, that is being thrust upon the American people. And the people
who disagree with this, the people who think that this is not good and
wholesome and healthy and something that they want, especially pushed upon their children,
are being systematically from multiple angles, sometimes directly silenced, sometimes intimidated, sometimes
forced into a reality that makes them either learn to comply with this broken,
morally morally bankrupt worldview and ideology, or else, or else. And that's
what I want to talk about today. And as troubling as the debt ceiling
thing, is this problem. This problem. When we begin to understand the
depths of this problem, we begin to understand the intentions of the people who
are leading the charge pushing this ridiculous agenda and worldview down the throats of the
American people. When we begin to get a grasp of that, just a
glimpse really of that reality, it is downright terrifying. It is the sort
of thing that leads to all sorts of things, including actual oppression for those
people who do not agree with the concepts. It is something that leads to
the downfall candidly of civilizations. It is, it truly is a disaster.
And I know that many of you, most of you are on the same
page with me and understand the seriousness of this, But some folks still are
oblivious to the degree of the problem that we're facing today. And I want
to talk about that a little bit. I want to talk about where it's
popping its ugly little head in places that you would not have expected. You're
beginning to see examples of it in places even it pains me to say this.
I've got a good, a dear friend who I think the world of
who's who's an operator here? But this is this has even raised its head
now at Chick fil A, which I would tell you, for all intents
and purposes as a solid, well run organization with principled people. Were no
longer in the founding generation. We're in the second generation with the passing of
true at Kathy, it's onto his son Dan now and I think other siblings
as well. But so there's something that happens generationally to companies as well.
But I don't want to get in specifically to that. I just want to
point out that this has been and it will continue to be, something that
is everywhere in your school, when your kids' school, your grandkids school,
in the workplace, in colleges and universities, in your larger companies, requests
for financing to operate their company. We've got ESG scores, d EI scores,
CEI scores. All of these things are designed to put pressure on the
American people to artificially put pressure on the American people in every conceivable way possible
to adopt this morally bankrupt worldview and ideology. And I tell you, my
friends, I tell you, at its core, they know that this is
morally bankrupt. And they know they know that virtue and a commitment to a
creator first and foremost amongst the folks that believe the Christian believers in this world
today, they understand that that group of people and their commitment to truth and
goodness and wholesome, wholesome thought. Again, not that they're perfect, please
do Heaven knows they're We're not perfect. That's not the point. But they
do not want they do not want that sort of mindset and ideology. They
do not want someone who is not completely under the thumb and under the control
ultimately and solely of some governmental authority. They do not want people who are
virtuous, because virtuous people do not comply with governments that are not virtuous.
This is where things like the revolution actually came from. So I want to
talk about this today because it's a serious problem. Some may not grasp the
seriousness of this. Some may think that the debt, spending limits and all
this stuff are more important. I disagree, right, that's very serious.
Don't misunderstand me. It is a part of this. But when we fully
grasp the all of the places and all of the ways that we have been
subjected to this ideology, come hell or high water, they are going to
force us into submission into believing this. This is like COVID on steroids,
COVID policies, maskings, vaccinations and all this. You think that was bad
if you don't comply with this particular worldview in the next I don't want to
predict how many years out that this is. You're better buckle up, because
it is going to be one heck of a ride for sure. Time out
though, is in order. My friends, you're listening here to conservative,
not better talk. Yes, yes, I know I went along in this
segment, violating my new year's resolution once again. Sit tight back in just
a minute. Welcome back, my friends. I should tell you, for
those of you that want to take a look at this, I'm in what
is our home studio, which is looks a little different than we were in
here last time. For those that follow us, you know that we've been
on the True Tour traveling around the country. This is home base for us.
You might want to take a look and see that. Yes, in
fact, I do have a face for radio. But you can take a
look at us talking here in the studio. It's kind of fun, good
little set up here, But you can do that. I think. I
think we put that stuff on the website. If not, that's on social
media channels as well. But let's get back here. Let's set the stage
for all of these terms. There's so many terms I threw. We talked
about wokeism earlier. It's really I think the simplest way to think about it
is that it's a tool that is used to push a morally bankrupt ideology and
worldview on a people so that we would be more willing to comply with and
to accept the utter nonsense that they are going to try to push upon us
next, which of course includes more government and less liberty. That's the biggest
desire of these jokers and clowns both. Again, it's not everybody, but
it's the bureaucratic state. It's politicians who think that they know better than you.
It's it's the folks. By the way, you see Bill Maher.
Bill Maher sometimes says things and I think, Bill, you're so close to
getting it, you really are. But he's all upset at the government and
the authorities, so to speak, from hiding the data from COVID about COVID
from US, which we talked about that back in real time. I don't
know why my people are so naive someone like Bill Maher, who's a cynic
of all cynics at his core. I don't know. There's things I like
about Bill, but anyway, he's upset about that. And so there are
people that have been truly awakened. We've got the woke who say, hey,
I'm I've been I'm now woke to how terrible this country is. Fundamentally
that's not good. That becomes a vehicle to push a bad ideology on the
American people, a bad government on the American people, a morally bankrupt worldview
on the American people. However, it's good to be awakened to the techniques
and the strategies that these clowns and jokers are using on us non stop.
And that's what I want to do in the latter part of this program here
is I want to talk about what they're really doing, because this goes even
deeper than then we first first suspected. So it's not just you can take
Target. For example, Target of course is in hot water over the displays
that they've had in their stores. They're in hot water over having kids clothing
that's basically pushing this transagenda and so forth for tiny little people, tiny kids.
It's disgusting. It's absolutely disgusting to do this. They've got bathing suits
where you can I don't even like to say you can put you can put
your male parts in a part of the swimsuit so that it keeps it out
of the way, so you can feel more like a woman. I guess
I don't know. This is what we're subjected to. This is what But
it's not just Target, right, it's it's also places like Walmart. I've
got links on the stack of stuff on the website. You can check it
out. By the way, the Targets VP of Brands is the treasurer of
a radical lgbt Q group that actually has been fighting for the rights if you
will, of schools to allow secret gender changes in the students. Secret,
don't tell mom and dad. Right, So we've got we've got target We've
got that radical stuff. I mentioned Chick fil A. I look, I
think a lot of Chick fil A overall, but they are starting to talk
to talk as well. I don't know if it's d EI, CI ESG.
It's all kind of the same thing. And by the way, I've
got links to that if you want to know, I can't really talk too
much about that today. Those different the differences. Maybe we'll touch on it
briefly. But if you need to know what that is, well, I
guess I can tell you. D EI is what Diversity, equity and Inclusion
ESG is. An economic scores no environmental excuse me score, social score,
and a governance score. These are these are scoring systems that are designed to
be used to evaluate effectively how woke the corporations are. And then these these
big investment firms are putting their money with companies that have higher ESG scores,
DI scores and the CEI score. That's something that's put together by the human
What is that thing called the human or human rights campaign? Every time I
read that, I think of, of course Seinfeld, when George Costanda or
George Costanza has a charity made up where he's taking making donations to people in
the workplace, to the Human Fund, the human rights campaigns out here,
it's called the Corporate Equality Index. These are all effectively the details you can
go study and and I don't want to say it doesn't matter, but for
our intents and purposes today, for our intents and purposes today, that simply
means those three letter acronyms D E I, C E I, ESG.
It basically just means it's a scorecard for how woke your corporation is. And
so now you've got people like the World Economic Forum, You've got other big
money sort of folks, leftists and people who love the idea of running the
world, being an autocrat, being part of the privileged super elite groups,
which of course in some ways they are through capitalism. They can use their
freedoms to do those things, but they want that's not enough. They want
control over people, over you and over me. They think that they're better,
they think that they're superior, and so they use these tools to force
people to comply with this radical nonsense. And so when Target sets this up,
and I've got some actually got a couple of videos from folks that are
posted again on our Stack of Stuff page on the website toddufshow dot com.
You can go down at the stack of Stuff page and you can look at
some of this. You can look at some explanation as to what is going
on behind the scenes from a banking or a financing position, and when investment
firms or banks that are often providing the capital, the lines of credit,
whatever else to help these well that these companies rely upon. When these banks
are controlled by people who want to see this radical, these radical agenda items
pushed, this globalist, morally bankrupt worldview and ideology pushed, then these companies
have to make a decision, are we going to do something that could upset
our customer base. In the case of Target, what do they lose ten
billion dollars in market market cap in like a week or two or something like
that, a lot of money. But when you start looking at how much
money they stand to lose from people that are going to help them with their
cash flow with further capital investments that help these companies to grow and to expand
and continue continue to be profitable, those are much much bigger dollars. In
fact, there was an example in one of these videos where an executive is
a CEO, I forget the company. They lost. It was twenty billion
dollars. I forget the company. It doesn't it doesn't really matter for this
part of the conversation. But they lost. The company lost something like twenty
billion dollars, but in short term losses. But because they played the game
with the banks, because they played the game with people that were actually going
to be funding their operations, they were able to secure, just in America
alone, and this is a worldwide corporation, two hundred and thirty billion dollars.
So they basically what is that ten eleven fold? Right? Is that
right? Eleven fold? So it looks like on paper man, they took
it on the chin. But these investment firms, these folks that are funding
the operation are prepared to walk through the metaphorical fire with these folks for the
short term. And they've got they've got their wicked agenda, right, They've
got their agenda. And what does it include? I gotta take a break.
But what does it include? It includes your compliance, my compliance.
It does you work there? You will do it their way or you won't
have a job, which to some degree I agree with, because that's the
way that you know, when you're an employee, you've got to follow certain
procedures and steps. But what's happening is this is a group, a very
small group of people with very nefarious and evil intent, who are trying to
basically force America into submission, into a position that we are effectively incapable of
doing anything other than taking the globalist, socialist, even communist solution that these
jokers and clowns and tyrants most importantly are going to thrust upon the American people
at some point in the future. They are setting the stage for that.
Look at inflation, I mean, you just look at inflation, open borders,
the war in Ukraine, the debacle in Afghanistan. You put all these
things together, and then you look at now they're coming in the schools.
Now they're coming through the corporations, small business. I tell os this,
We as Christian conservatives who are self employed, who homeschool, who live in
a camper half the time, we are public enemy number one because we are
not We're the hardest to control because we don't have the employer, we don't
have the kids in the school, and so they're constantly looking churches by the
way or next. If you're a pastor, if you're a deacon, if
you're an elder, if you're someone there that cares about your church, you've
been on the in the crosshairs for a long time. I hope that you
know this, but it's about to get really real as they begin to tighten
the screws here from all conceivable angles. Quick time out is in order to
my friends, you're listening here to conservative not better talking. I'm your host,
Tide Hugh back in just a minute. Welcome back, my friends.
So I should point out too, watching something drink during the time out there,
I should point out that adults, you know, are free to make
their own choices. When I'm talking, when I'm talking about this worldview that's
being thrust upon us, what I'm my biggest concern problem is is that the
people in positions of power do not want there to be any opposition. They
don't want to hear someone say that they don't morally agree with a certain choice
or lifestyle. I can say that and say, you're still free to personally
make it until you're forcing it on children, or until you're forcing it upon
me or other people who are trying to of their lives. And that's what
they're doing. They're creating a scenario where it's going to be hard to not
go along with this stuff. You know, I well, maybe another day
I'll say that, but I just the stage is being set for. They're
quite literally to be a scenario where if you don't agree with the prevailing worldview
and cultural norms of the day, you are not going to be permitted to
participate in society. So if they get your employer, you're going to have
to accommodate their requests or not have a job. You can say, well,
I can go work somewhere else. Okay, that's probably true until they
get all. Until they get all or most of at least the big ones.
Now you're stuck with small business, which I love. I'm a small
business guy. But there's other pressures that are being exerted upon them as well.
What happens whenever these big corporations, you know a lot of times these
small companies will get contracts with these bigger corporations, or they'll get contracts with
governments, state governments, local governments, whatever, federal government. What happens
when you don't comply with the d ei ci esg BS, if you ask
me standards and so forth, you're not your company's not going to be able
to compete in that arena. They're coming for the church as well. They
have been. They don't like this idea that churches won't marry whoever wants to
be married in the actual church. And you see, you know that there's
been the church. Many churches have decided not to have that fight by doing
a number of things where they just don't have. You know, some folks,
some churches may not even do weddings in their churches anymore because they don't
want to be involved in that decision or actually be called out for not marrying
someone. They've read the horror stories of the people that were making wedding cakes
or selling flowers that were sued by people wanting to have the same sex wedding
ceremony that these business owners did not want to participate in. Happy to serve
these individuals as human beings, but they didn't want to be a part of
the ceremony. And they're being forced and sued and just basically driven to oblivion
by lawsuits and so forth. This is the strategy. This is the strategy.
Where's their left to go? And they're getting your kids, our kids
in schools. You're going to follow the rules. They say, parents don't
have rights, parents shouldn't be telling schools what they could teach. We literally
have democrats saying this one in Virginia in particular. Some are savvy enough not
to say that in public. We've had the FBI basically sicked on parents who
were upset at school board members for allowing this nonsense, this vulgarity, this
morally bankrupt stuff to be thrust upon their kids. And they're attacking from every
single conceivable angle. Now it's to the point where Chick fil A's at least
using the terminology it's Walmart, it's Target, it's Ford Ford has a.
I got this in the stack of stuff too, A rainbow painted raptor.
I had not seen well, if I did, you know, I I
have seen this. It's a year old, but it just someone retweeted it
yesterday or recently. So a lot of people didn't know about it because I
think it was a European campaign prior to now. Now Americans have seen this
as well. So again it is just these are not decisions that these companies
wouldn't make outside of the pressures being exerted upon them by the people holding the
money strings. And where do you go? And this is why leaders like
a Trump like it to Santas, especially to Santas in this case. I
don't want to be mis understood, you know. You know my thoughts on
that if you listen to this program. But the way that he's handled some
of these issues as governor in the state of Florida, we have actual examples
of watching him deal with this. This I know to some people who are
just all about the dollars, Benjamin's whatever. I understand you say, stay
out of the social issues. But when you understand the gravity of where the
socialists or issues are taking us, when you understand that the problems this is
to the business men the businesswomen out there who think it's all about economics.
It's not. You want to complain about worth work ethic of young people,
or demands they put on employers, or the expectation as they come into the
workplace, or what have you, which, to a certain degree, all
generations have had, but they've had this nonsensus garbage pushed upon them, especially
the higher they go up in education, especially if they go to more left
leaning schools. Of course, that's all schools are left leaning, but the
most extreme will produce the most extreme radical almost unemployable in a very real sense,
individual people that small businesses would not hire the places like Target does,
and they promote them because they've got the degree, they got the credentials,
and the next thing you know, bud Light comes along, has a partnership
with Dylan mulvaney that almost single handedly sinks the ship there. But again the
executives are saying, hey, I would rather lose They would rather lose that
amount of money in sales, that percentage of market share than to lose the
funding from people who are looking at those CEI, d EI ESG scores.
And that's why they play the game, and that's why it's a noose that's
being slowly but surely tightened around the necks of the American people. Sit tight,
my friends, you're listening to conservative, not bitter talk. I am
your host, the one, the only Todd huff Pack. In just a
minute, Welcome back by friends. To not give myself enough time here to
talk about the oh the showdown in DC. Let's suffice it to say that
pretty much everything we talked about yesterday is where this is headed. So McCarthy
may be done with the speakership at least the seeds have been planned. That
is now. There's murmurs of that in DC. This thing is not done,
although I think I know where it's headed. But it's a mess,
that's for sure. Anyway, just out of time, don't have time to
talk about it today, Quick time out back in a minute, Welcome back,
my friends. You know somebody that I don't think is ever going to
be participating in ES what is it? Esg CEI d EI. I'm pretty
certain if it ever gets to the point that Mike Lindell and my pillar are
participating, folks, it's all over. But the crime here in this one

You know this, this is truly spreading like wildfire. And in some ways
it's happened in a very public way, but in other ways it's and very
quietly brewing behind the scenes, this radical leftist agenda and the way that they've
kind of snuck in covert action undercover of darkness. That you, my friends,
know the truth. It's time to get engaged. It's time to crank
it up, not to be afraid. It's time to pick a side,
my friends. I've got to go SDG
