Speaker 1: Welcome to the Three Stories version of The Todd Herman Show.
Story number one a note to corrupt human judges. Jesus
Christ will return as final judge. Our Faith and Fact segment.
Story number two we should care about politics the same
way and to the same degree that Jesus cares faith
and flag sent me for today. And story number three
is the NBA against Jesus Christ. Our Faith and Fitness segment.
We'll talk about this all with the help of Bulwark
Capital Management, the Other riskpodcast dot com, and God Almighty.
Speaker 2: The Todd Herman Show is one percent disapproved by big
pharma technocrats and tyrn s everywhere. From the high mountains
of Free America. Here's the Emerald City exile Todd Herman.
Speaker 1: Today is the day the Lord has made, and these
are the times through which God has decided we shall live.
What can we say to people who are corrupted, judges
who are corrupted, and citizens who are so tired of
seeing corrupt judges make corrupt decisions. Well, we can give
everybody some peace of mind, and that is that this
isn't the way things are going to be forever, that
there's going to be a final judgment, and that final
judgments will never change, so people should get their stuff
together right now. I bring this up because it's difficult
to look at the news and not see instances where
judges are doing things that are utterly corrupt. And let's
start with a little bit of framing away from their judiciary.
If you ever had a strict but fair father in
biblical design homes, it's the father who's really supposed to
be the disciplinarian. Not that mothers can't, but in a
biblical design home, it's really the father's job. I aired
on this front, un tried to discipline and did that
to a degree. But I was never the father who
was scary when dad came home. My wife never got
to say you wait till Dad gets home. It's because
not who I was. But if you've ever been in
the home of a father who is a godly father, fair,
just gentle, but hard line when it comes to having
done wrong, then if you've never seen that, you've never
seen the majesty of how this works, of a mother
saying here's the deal. You guys broke this rule. Here's
what I'm going to do. This thing is gone. You
can't do this. Now you're grounded for the day, and
then you wait until your dad gets home, because your
dad will have the final say. And in a Christian home,
the parents are communicating in the back end, they're doing
phone calls. Oh my gosh, honey, the kids did this.
Here's what I've done. And the dad's job is to
be the one that comes home. And the kids have
love and fear and respect. But it's the fear of
having disappointed. It's not the fear of taking a beating,
not a physical one, but it's this fear of your
dad coming home and saying, you're in your room. And
I've seen it. I lived in a good Christian home
where there was a dad was like this, he's my godfather.
I've been in the room when my friend's younger brother
had done something pretty horrendous and the truck pulled up
their father's jeep, and the room went silent, and my
friend's younger brother looked up and his mother in the
kitchen didn't even need to say anything. Dad's home. His
father came through the door, kissed his wife, kissed his
other sons, kissed Drew in the forehead and said, son,
come with me. I remember all the other kids looking
around like ooh, Dad's home. I'd remember specifically what he did.
But the judgment was final. There's no arguing. It was
delivered in love and clarity, and it was final. And
I think in that case what happened was Drew lost
a lot of his possessions and a lot of his
money gone forever because he'd made a tremendous mistake. In
our society, we see judges that are doing things that
aren't just tremendous mistakes. It's difficult to see how they're
not personal, how they're not personally directed at us. There
was a man who ended the life of a little
baby under the age of one, and a judge got
to render judgment on this.
Speaker 3: Jan Moni's Rabino was sentenced to probation for the death
of seventeen month old Kai to Soro, who suffered fatal
injuries while in his care. Prosecutor said Kai was rushed
to hospital in June after being found unresponsive. Doctors reported
severe head trauma, bruising, and broken bones. They said the
injuries were consistent with abuse, not an accident. Rabino initially
told investigators the child had fallen. The injuries could not
be caused by a simple fall Kai was placed on
life support and died days later. Rabno was originally charged
with murder and child abuse charges that could have sent
him to prison for decades, but prosecutors later agreed to
a manslaughter plea deal. They cited major risks at trial,
including inconsistent witness statements and a lack of direct eyewitnesses.
At sentencing, the judge acknowledged the seriousness of the case
and said she did not like the outcome, but approve
the agreement.
Speaker 1: She didn't like the outcome, but she approved the agreement,
which she didn't need to approve. This could be taken
to a jury. And are there risks in this, Yes,
but that's the case that you could at least defend
a little bit. If you don't like out the outcome,
why are you approving the outcome? Other stuff cannot be defended.
It comes across as completely corrupt. So there's a massive
number of a Maryrias who are calling for a really
pursing of the courts given what's going on in San Francisco,
and this happens in the separate countries California and Washington,
Oregon all too often. In this case, it is a
clear active assault It is a man who just decided
to go blindside an eighty four year old guy, landing
him in the hospital. And this guy was not given
prison time for a very specific reason. Watch this. This
guy's just walking along with his mask and a big,
big dude comes up and just chest tackles him, just
blocks him to the ground. Eighty four year old man.
And he see it again. He sees him coming, but
he's eighty four. There's nothing he can do. There is
no reason for him to do this. He just decided
to do it. Well, Audrey.
Speaker 4: The family of Vitro Atana Patti is not happy about
this sentence, and they are especially critical of the judge
who oversaw this trial. They say that Judge Linda Colfax
unfairly kept some details of watson prior juvenile record from
the jury, but then considered his successful completion of juvenile
probation in her sentencing decision. Today, because of technicalities and
the law, she decided to focus on one of the charges.
He was convicted of assault causing great bodily injury, carrying
a three year sentence. That's because the jury also found
that when Antoine Watson violently attacked Meature a ton of
Poctey on January twenty eighth, twenty twenty one. They also
found him guilty of two enhancements on that charge. Judge
Colfax says the law allows an additional five years for
those enhancements. Because Watson has already served five years in
jail and then earned additional credit for time served for
good behavior, she decided, instead of sending him to prison
for two more years what's left of the sentence, she
instead granted him probation.
Speaker 5: The judge already had in mind what she was going
to do, in my opinion, and they just carried it out,
and her in the.
Speaker 3: Her in the defense.
Speaker 1: Very well together. They said it would have a poor
impact on this guy to be sent to prison, and
it may have. This is one case upon other cases,
upon other cases of people who've been let out after
ninety eight arrest four or five different felonies. Then we
could spend the next two hours going through cases where
Jesus has done unthinkable things. There's going to be a
final judgment, and when that final judgment comes, there's no
way out, there's no redress. And Jesus Christ, who is
almost endless with mercy, almost endless with us to come
to him with our corruption, our human sin, to repent
of these things. He's holding out his hands. And there
are some people who look at that as corrupt. That
Jesus is willing to forgive murderers and rapists as well
as people who commit so called minor sins. It's not corruption,
it's mercy. But to these corrupt human judges, the decisions
you make in the black rooms, in the black robes,
in private, Jesus is there for the discussion. He knows
if they're corrupt, he knows if it's well intended. He
knows all of these things. And you may not be
a Christian, you may not believe Jesus ever existed. Here's
what the Bible says. Every knee will bow and every
tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. That doesn't
mean that every knee bows an exultation or excitement or yes,
Jesus is here. It means that some people are going
to bow because they don't want to, but they have to.
It's in the sight of the majestic Lord. On that
judgment day, Jesus has all the evidence. Nothing is held back.
So to human judges who are corrupt, you're going to
be given your day in court, and if you haven't
repented and accepted the Lord Jesus, at that point, you
are going to convict yourself to a life eternal. Apart
from him and to us who look at corrupt human judges,
we're no different. We make decisions sometimes that are corrupt.
We try to hide our sins, We try to bury
them below these excuses, or forget them or blame other people.
We can turn to all the corrupt human judges in
the world, and Jesus can come and say to us, yes,
but the forest of logs grown out of your eyes
while you're looking at the specs and others. We can
be corrupt judges of our own activity. We can look
at our sin and say, yeah, but it's not as
bad as their sin. Human judges should be careful because
people are waking up to how corrupt the governments are.
Or show you an instance of this in Canada that
if you're a gun owner, it should have great, great
hope for you that people are at least aware to
what the government's trying to do. But even here there
exists a risk for our souls. I'll share that in
a second life is filled with risk. If you're someone
who takes physical risks and you're my age, you can
go out and have something like a shoulder tear or
an acl tear, and maybe it's not catastrophic, but it
will be. Our bodies simply don't heal the way they
used to. If you're someone who loves skiing or weightlifting
or running and you've got one of these tears and
it's nagging, or you've got the cartilage on your knee
going away, your doctor has said something to you like
one day you might be bone on bone here. What
if you could stop that in its tracks? What if
you never had to be cut open? What if you
could go down to portavart to Mexico to Renew Healthcare.
Where I've been, I've taken my very best friends, I've
taken my life group leader, I've taken people I love dearly,
and I've taken people who are viewers and listeners to
the show. What if they could help you avoid surgery
in a couple of days where you take a beautiful vacation.
That's what I suggest. Simply check with them Good or
renew r E n ue dot Healthcare. They will look
at your condition, your mrize your scanned whatever you have,
and they will tell you if they can help you.
They don't do fifty percent likely to help. If it's
not well above fifty percent. They don't even want you
to come down and renew and ue dot Healthcare. Please
tell them you're part of the Todd Hermannshew family. The
corrupt government in Canada is now going out to force
people to comply with giving up their weapons. There is
a trap here. This was a law passed by the
Canadian government. Canadians are, in fact refusing that there is
a spiritual danger here.
Speaker 5: The declaration period for firearms owners as scheduled to end
next week. So far, only two point five percent of
the estimated two million affected firearms have been declared and
ninety eight percent of firearms owners haven't made a declaration.
So if they're not declaring by next week, what's your plan, Minister?
Speaker 6: The RCMP and other agencies will be available throughout the
spring of the summer to do the collection.
Speaker 5: And you're saying that your plan is over the spring
in the summer to deploy RCMP officers to go door
to door to firearms owners and seize their firearms.
Speaker 7: These are additional resources.
Speaker 5: So these are those who are off duty, those who
may be retired. I just find that very concerning.
Speaker 1: People should find it concerning, and yet Canadians voted for this. Sadly,
if you're Canadian Christian Romans thirteen, you have to turn
over your firearms otherwise you sin. This is why it's
very very important for us to care about politics the
same way Jesus did. Love the Lord, our God with
entire heart, mind, soul, and strength, love our neighbor as ourself,
but not be obsessed by politics, and to walk a
very very careful line. In America, we have the Second Amendment.
It is unalienable. It's a right given us by God.
Absence a constitutional amendment. They can't do this, and we
have to follow laws, even the ones we don't like,
because it's not just corrupt human judges and black robes
who will face Jesus as final judge. Story number two.
We should care about politics the same way Jesus does
our faith and flag segments. I'm really struggling with how
much I should care about politics. Are you in the
same place? How much should we care? This is something
we should care about more. If you're a Christian and
you engage in politics. We really needed to pay attention
to some things. I've spent most of my life in
and around politics. I started to get political in my
early twenties, you know, when I was a twenty one
year old kid. I was one of those weirdos to
subscribe to The Weekly Standard and National Review and the
Washington Times. I even subscribed to policy newsletters that read
these things at home and kind of inform my political views.
And this is one of the ways I started to
back up my conservatism. I became a conservative when I
was in sixth grade and I saw how much power
school teachers can have in school principles, and like, wow,
government can be way too powerful. But I was sort
of intellectualizing this at this point, and politics has been
a passion for me since then. I spent years in
talk radio, my first run through talk radio nineteen ninety
three through nineteen ninety seven. After that, I took a
break and so or some tech companies and inter Rated Company,
did some time at Microsoft and in DC in starting
a couple of startups and selling Dose. But my passion
has always been radio, political talk radio. So my passion
was the politics, and I love reading about the politics.
And I love fighting for the political change, and I
loved holding these people to account. I love having positionholders
on my show back when they would come on my show.
A funny thing happens when you take a couple of
Republicans out as a conservative talk show hosts. All of
a sudden, the Republicans don't want to come in your
show because you don't pay. You don't play a paty
with them, you don't play Paddo cake. You're actually not
afraid to take out a Republican who's corrupt or Republican
who's lying. So I sit here today doing a talk
show where we tried to do everything we can to
have God at the center, and I ask myself, how
much should I actually care as a Christian man? How
much time should I give politics? As someone who wants
to serve the Lord Jesus? How can I think of
the same way the Lord Jesus talked about politics or
thought about it. Let's take this from a thought experiment perspective.
This is probably deeply angering to a lot of people.
It is to me. This is how the so called
Republican Senate make sure that President Trump doesn't get to
do recess appointments for judicial nominees. Remember that the Senate
has done almost nothing to help President Trump with his
judicial nominees. I want the President's judicial nominees in place.
This is how they do it.
Speaker 5: Will be in order. Chair Lee is before the House
of Communication from.
Speaker 1: The Speaker.
Speaker 8: The Speaker's Rooms, Washington, d C. August eighth, twenty twenty five.
I hear by a point the Honorable Mike Kelly to
act as Speaker pro temporary on this day, signed Mike Johnson,
Speaker of the House of Representatives.
Speaker 1: That's the House Clerk reading a communicate. This is an
example of how the Senate is a to pretend to
not be in recess. They have little, tiny fake meetings
like this that could be accomplished through email. They do
this on purpose. They're not on recess. Look at all
the busy, busy work they're doing. They're busy, busy people.
It's a great example. Does that anger you? It enrages me,
which is why I can't care about it. Rage is
not a godly emotion. Indignant feeling indignant about something, it's godly.
Being frustrated by it more godly. But how would Jesus
look at something like this. Let's think about this in
a second. How does Jesus look at the least of these?
I mean, to Jesus, we're all the least to these.
To Jesus, we all struggle, and yet there are people
among us who struggle in some different ways. Alan and
Alan Soaps is thirteen. He's been through eighteen operations. He
is nonverbal effectively, very high up on the autism spectrum,
and he just lost his dad. His dad's start did
a company called Alan Soaps for his son to have
a place to work because John and Tina, John's widow,
were absolutely convinced their sons needed to work. Now Alan
has structural health concerns as well. It's very difficult from
the walk, hence the eighteen operations. His brother Ian is
also deeply impacted by autism. But they both work at
a soap company where the soap is made in America
by a family. That family has three generations of soap
baking expertise. You'll never find a chemical in any of
this soap, because that's not the way they do things.
John did die and Tina has taken over the company.
This is an uphill battle. She's never run a soap
company before the soap is continues to be world class.
The company continues to have the mission of employing Ian
and Allan. They continue to make the best soap in
the world. So it started a package to honor John
in his life. It's the four original soaps that got
Alan started. Watermelon Basil, Vanilla, lime, Cedowoo, jasmine, and lavender Rosemary.
You get these for under thirty bucks, and Tina's throwing
in a simple sisle pouch for everyday use. Please help
these guys get back on the feet, get the company
back rolling, and enjoy the best soap that the world
has to offer. Go to ounsoaps dot com slash Todd
promo code Todd for ten percent off all the products there.
Jesus looks at the least of these in all of us.
If we're to care about politics to the same degree
in measure that Jesus dead, we should render unto God
that which is God, and Caesar that was just to Caesar.
So what do we do hope belongs to God. We're
to have a defense for our optimism as Christians, because Jesus,
we're to have a reason we wake up in the morning,
a reason we feel satisfied a job to build the kingdom.
We can look at politicians the way Jesus does. Absolutely
fall in human beings in need of him, in need
of Jesus Christ likely to do very, very corrupt things,
just like us. I think if we look at politics
this way, we have a lot better time making clear
decisions and not fall into spiritual traps. Story number three
is the NBA against Jesus Christ our faith and fitness segment.
Is it fair to say that the National Basketball Association
is against Jesus Christ. Well, let's measure this. One of
their players, a guy named Jaden Ivy, has been said
to men at the end of his game, a bunch
of injuries, etc. On the other hand, there are colleagues
of his in the NBA who say, now Jaden was
coming to practice, he was coming back, he was fine.
Jaden Ivy did something unthinkable. He posted some Bible verses
about the lgb Q and so called t phenomena. He
said that these things are unrighteous. He was frustrated that
the league wants him to celebrate the unrighteous. In point
of fact, he's right. This is what the Bible says
about all forms of sexual perversion outside of God's plan.
Fornication and adultery usually thought of as happening between opposite
sex attracted people, and then same sex activity, which clearly
happens between same sex attracted people. The Bible calls it sin.
And it's not just the apostle Paul. It's also in
Revelation that this is brought up. It's brought up across
the Bible, in the Old Testament as well. Jesus didn't
erase the Old Testament. He came to fulfill the law,
not to erase the law. And when he made changes
to the law, he made that very very clear. And
Jesus did change the law in regard to sexuality. Oh
you didn't know that. Jesus absolutely changed the law in
regard to sexuality. We'll talk about that. So Jaden Ivy
was thrown off the team and he's facing interacting to
stuff about this. Reacted live on Instagram after this happened.
Speaker 9: They said, my conduct is detrimental to the team. Right,
Why didn't they just say we don't agree with his
stance on LGBTQ. Why didn't they say that? Well, how
is it? How is it conduct detrimental to the team?
Speaker 1: What did I do?
Speaker 9: To the team.
Speaker 1: What did I do to the players?
Speaker 9: I did nothing but practice with them, play with them,
pass the ball to them. Good teammates to them said
good job, good shot. I said, I said, uh uh,
good job, good job.
Speaker 1: Good past.
Speaker 9: Way to play bro right.
Speaker 1: I said these things to my teammates.
Speaker 9: Was never detrimental to them. So why is it that
the NBA and the Chicago Bulls say that I'm detrimental
to the team. How because I because I have because
I believe, and the truth, because because I know Jesus
is the way, the truth in the life.
Speaker 1: How apparently he was preaching in the locker room. Well,
people preach a lot of things in the locker room.
As a matter of fact, this is a true statement.
If you have any form of persuasion over anyone else,
if you're famous, if you have footprints, if you have respect,
you're making disciples of something in your house. You might
maybe making disciples of golf. Man Dad gloves golf. He
takes his golfing all the time. You might be making
disciples of NBA football or probably the NBA basketball. You
might be making disciples of the sports you like your
kids to play. We're all making disciples of something. So
in this case, he was going about the process of
maybe trying to make disciples. But is the NBA anti Christian?
Well if they fired him for this, Yeah, now, Jesus
did change the laws on sexuality. Maybe this is what
the NBA means because Jesus, being god fully, god fully human,
he has the right to change the laws on sexuality.
And we'll get to how he changed the laws on sexuality.
Maybe Jade and I even he doesn't know that Jesus
changed the law on sexuality because he did. An NBA
player named Daniel Geffert was at a press conference and
he wore a shirt that says faith isn't for the week.
Here's what happens with him And he was asked about
his shirts.
Speaker 2: I mean, there's a fast.
Speaker 1: No, I didn't really even see what it has to
until you just said something about it.
Speaker 9: But I mean, you know, faith isn't for the week
because God gives his tests to the strongest.
Speaker 1: Soldiers most definitely.
Speaker 6: And you know, I really can't really kind of go
deep into that, you know, with the stuff that's kind
of going on with you know, the IVY situation, I
don't want to, you know, get waved.
Speaker 2: With anything, so go keep it at that point.
Speaker 1: So there he is on a set, making a disciple
of Gatoray drinkers and making disciples of Southwestern Medical Center
ut Southwestern Medical Center, making a disciples of basketball fans,
and yet he's talking about Jesus. He very clearly says
he understands No. If I explain this, I'm gonna get
fired too. That would seem to me if you have
a player of his caliber afraid to speak the Lord
Jesus' name or to actually say who Jesus is the Way,
the truth, and the life. No one comes to the
Father but through Jesus. It seems to me the NBA
is pretty anti Christian. But maybe the NBA is really
interested in this change Jesus Christ made to sexual rules
because he did change them. This this isn't the NBA,
it's NFL football, but it's professional football. This is the
head coach of the Patriots, Mike Vrabel, who incidentally lost
to the Seahawks. And I used to live in sad
and I enjoyed watching that, even though I can't stand
the NFL, which is in fact anti.
Speaker 10: Christon quoted some Bible versus supporting a Chicago Bulls player
who got released. Okay, some comments okay that he made,
and I just what how do you measure the line
between conduct detrimental to the team, which is why the
Bulls released the player in their view, and allowing the
twenty three year old to, you know, express his personal part.
Speaker 6: I think there is a fine line. I want to
tell you. I love Trevion. I love the person.
Speaker 2: There.
Speaker 6: He cares deeply about our team, he cares deeply about
his faith, he cares deeply about his family, his wife,
the people in our building, and so I want them
to be able to express what they believe in their
heart and in their mind, but also want to make
sure that they're educated. And we want to be inclusive.
We want to everything we want to do wants to
provide an environment for people to one feel comfortable, but
also to share their personal beliefs. And then also we
represent the team, and then we represent the organization.
Speaker 1: Kind of a weak answer, at least he says he
loves the guy wants to maybe express himself, but be inclusive.
Expressing yourself is not inclusive. You're not exclusion people by
expressing yourself. Now, if you're yelling at them and belittling them.
They could feel in fact they're excluded. But that's not
what this Trevion did. He posted this to social media.
Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness sake, for
theirs is the kingdom of heaven. He's quoting Matthew five,
verse ten. So regard to the NBA, a guy named
Steve Kerr can go on and make some pretty interesting
claims and accusations and he gets to keep his job.
Speaker 7: You're recognized in her life and the tragic nature of
her death.
Speaker 1: We're talking about Renee Good. The tragic nature of her death,
certainly tragic. Young women put herself in a position to
try to interrupt law enforcement, caring about the duty. That
was certainly tragic.
Speaker 7: Steve Caerr continues, it's shameful, really that in our country
we can have law enforcement officers who commit murder and
seemingly get away with it.
Speaker 1: So that's his assessment. They committed murder by the virtue
of defending themselves from being run over with a vehicle.
They're supposed to just get run over. He's fine, But
a guy who posts Bible verses, a guy who says, yeah,
I'm not going to celebrate Pride month decade century. Because
pride is an emotion in humans that God abhors. Because
about what are we proud? We didn't create anything. God
gave us everything. We're managers. We're stewards. Some of us
aren't even to that level yet, we're not even yet.
Night managers were users and users of all the blessings
of God. We don't even steward them, says the NBA.
Anti Christian sure looks like it. Maybe they're anti fear.
Maybe they're afraid of via LGBQ so called t mafia.
Maybe they're afraid of that. Maybe they're leaning on the
fact that Jesus Christ changed the sexual rules. Because he
did this is uncomfortable, But Jesus Christ himself changed the
sexual rules. He said, you've heard it said you shall
not commit adultery, But I tell you, a man who
looks at a woman with lust in his eyes has
already committed adultery. You can take that same principle. You've
heard it said you shall not commit same sex acts.
But I tell you, a man who looks at another man,
or a woman at another woman with lust in their
eyes has already committed the sin of same sex activity.
Jesus Christ did change the rules for human sexuality. He
raised the bar. This is the Todd Hermann Shaw. Please go,
be well, be strong, be kind, and please make every
effort to walk in the life of Christ.
