Speaker 1: Welcome to the Three Stories version of The Todd Herman Show.
Is story number one how the NFL explains Zorian Mandami's
acceptance speech. Story number two, Red States are not Safe,
And story number three is self love a Christian virtue.
We'll talk about this all with the help of God Almighty.
Speaker 2: The Todd Herman Show is one hundred percent disapproved by
big pharma, technocrats and tyrants everywhere from the hind mountains
of Free American 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.
There's a lot that can be said and will be said,
and will continue to be said about the Newark mayor race,
and there are a bunch of races in this cycle
that matter. Zoramadmik grabs all the oxygen from this because
he has been made the star of the Democrat Party,
which has been said a thousand times. He's the new
leader of the Democrat Party, which has been said a
thousand times. Pelosi is leaving and we're going to have
someone more perverse than her coming in Scott Wiener, which
hasn't been said enough but with Pelosi outs and aoc
duns expired. I mean, she's still alive, but her attraction
has expired. She's now flying private. Everybody sees this. She's
now a Bernie bro. Everybody sees that Zoran's the new
edge edge player. So what hasn't been said. One of
the things that has not been said about Zarama Damie
has how we can use the NFL to explain his
acceptance speech because you can reverse engineer what someone is
doing by looking at the effects the effects of what
they're doing. How were they created? What was this created
to do? For instance, you can pick up an axe
and try a whole bunch of different things with it.
It's a very good hammer. It's not a super good spoon,
but manne can chop down a tree. So Zaramadami was
what is the through line here? What does he appear
designed to do? We can explain this through the NFL.
Believe it or not, there's a portion of his speech
that's gotten attention, and it should get attention because he
is now going through and removing the hyphens. There was
a lot of controversy, and if you're young, you might
not know this, but it used to be a very
controversial thing to call someone an African American, or a
Mexican American or an Italian American. There were all these
articles about the hyphenated American and how dangerous it was
for us to have people maintain their country of origin
identity when they should just become Americans. After all, the
idea is a melting pot e pluribus unum from many one.
And if not, if you're in school these days, you've
never heard e plurbusunum. If you have, it has to
do with something around white supremacy. So when Zora Madami
gave his acceptance speech, and you page through the anger,
you get rid of the bitterness, the coveting, the promises
that he doesn't tend to follow through on, and the
implied promises, which is part and parcel of his hyphenating,
actually the removal of hyphenating. Then we can get to
the NFL as an explanation for this. So here's Sarn
and he is explaining how this movement won and how
it became to be. Then we'll get to the NFL
by way of comparison.
Speaker 3: Thank you to those so often forgotten by the politics
of our.
Speaker 1: City who made this movement their own.
Speaker 3: I speak of Yemeni bodega owners and Mexican abuelas, Senegalese
taxi drivers, and who's bec nurses, Trinidadian line coach and
Ethiopian aunties, Yes, aunties to every New Yorker in Kensington
and Midwood and hunts Put.
Speaker 1: Finally, he gets to New Yorkers after he mentions people
who are here as foreigners and intend to remain foreigners,
and he wants them to remain foreigners. The purpose of
Zarai Mandami is to make New York a not just
a separate country. Those exist. Washington State is a separate country,
separate from the United States. It bears nothing in common
in the United States, California, Oregon. They're separate countries. He's
talking about taking a city large enough in some ways
to be a state in terms of population and income
and tax base, and making it into a series of countries. Yes,
I'm aware that there is an Italian part of New
York City of Manhattan. I'm aware that there's an Irish portion.
I know that there's a Chinese portion and a Jewish portion.
But those have always been ethnic portions. They've never been
country of origin portions. It is New York or where
people came to become American to start the process of
no longer being hyphenated by coming into a country they
loved because they love what it promised, which was we'll
protect your life, We'll protect your liberty so you can
pursue happiness. And in that pursuit, we built a country
to which everybody wanted to go. It's like building a
successful team. Back in the day, a guy named Reggie White,
who he was a My friend Zach Abraham reminded me
he was a pastor. He was a dominant defensive lineman.
He went to Green Bay and then used his influence
to bring other people to Green Bay, saying, hey, let's
build a super Bowl caliber team. Brett Favre was there.
Farv took a pay cut so could they could afford
better players to come. Some of the superstars took pay cuts.
It's about getting a team back to the super Bowl.
And if you follow the NFL at all, you know
that the Green Bay Packers have a storied history that succeeded.
We can use this as an example of what America
used to be. It used to be the team everyone
wanted to join because he had the best possibility of
winning the super Bowl. But at that point, Reggie White
wasn't saying, hey, let's have a bunch of people who
can't play the game. You know, it's not fair. We're
looking for all the superstars. Let's look for some laggards.
Lot's for some people who are problem teammates. Let's look
for some people who don't do what they're supposed to
do on the field. Let's look for some people who
are having drug and alcohol issues and who have injury issues.
He didn't say that let's bring in the best of
the best, not because he didn't like guys who developed
these problems. After all, he's a pastor, he's a Christian man.
It was because they wanted to build a winning team.
But we can extend this further if we look at
zoron Mondami and we look at a specific moment back
in NFL history, a very famous moment back in NFL history,
back in two thousand and three. And I will show
you this in a second. I'm Madammi isn't saying it,
but you know he hates Christianity. First of all, he
is a Muslim. That doesn't mean he hates Christianity, but
he's a liar. Muslims do not in their countries say hey,
let's do it with the police, let's not have any
law and order. Sure that goes on in Nigeria where
it's big attacked by Brokoharam, But in functioning Muslim countries
they don't do that. And I'm not counting Afghanistan as
a functioning Muslim country. It is, but now that's been
taken over by the Taliban. Those aren't cops, those are demons.
But to look at Qatar or Saudi Arabia, in these
countries they have cops. Zarma Dami is pretending to be
a moderate Muslim in my judgment, because he intends to
take the country down. I bring this up because of
Angel Studios. They didn't know how precient they were when
they created Disciples in the Moonlight. This is a story
about one night where twelve guys who are disciples go
smuggling Bibles into Saudi Arabia. No sorry, Yemen, No sorry,
no in the United States because the Bible's been outlawed.
If you think that sounds in saying, remember that in
Canada they intend to be able to prosecute you for
hate speech for reading from the Bible and Angels in
the Moonlight. Probably the Disciples in the Moonlight tells the
story of in America, not so far in the future
where this is happening here. It's brave Christian filmmaking. You
can check it out at angel dot com slash herman.
That's Angel dot com slash Herman. Join the Angel Guild.
You won't just be watching, You'll be making it possible
for more brave Christian filmmaking to be made. It's Angel
dot com slash herman. If you go back and you
look at great moments in the NFL, you're gonna notice
some commonalities. You have some of the best players, you
have some of the best coaching. Sometimes you have these
very very risky things, such as in two thousand and three,
Bill Belichick made a really interesting and risky decision.
Speaker 4: I'm by one on facing fourth down with less than
three minutes left. Bill Belichick made the boldest and best
coaching decision of the season by calling for a deliberate safety.
Speaker 1: Now this is really interesting because the NFL safety or
the NFL film. This guy's so good.
Speaker 4: Man.
Speaker 1: If I talk that way, I just walk around talking
all the time. I had a voice like that. So
at first the Denver Broncos are celebrating. You see number
fifty five Burns hands up, Hey, it's a safety. Look
what we got. And then something happened on the sidelines.
They won't have it on that safe and I didn't seen.
So the gal get to the they get to go
do a kickoff because it's a safety. So Denver gets
two points and now the team, the Patriots, gets to
kick off the punt.
Speaker 4: Made a critical misjudgment on the subsequent free kick.
Speaker 1: Free kick gos wild back getside of twenty. He's chasing
it down on the seventeen.
Speaker 4: He got it on the seventeen, and.
Speaker 1: This guy makes a tremendously bad decision. They're not so
now these guys are deep. Denver is deep into their
own area, deep in near their own end zone, and
Patriots are going to count a d.
Speaker 4: After getting the ball back ball help the pay. It's
march down field.
Speaker 1: Okay, so that's a quick throw. Brady goes back and
they have to set up into it looks like it's
kind of a mine or not. It's like a fake screen.
So they let some offensive lineman or defensive lineman through
some of the linebackers. It opens up this position. You
get a running back, catches the ball short and the
Brady drive begins, brings it back up, not.
Speaker 4: Over the middle to Kevin fault fulk.
Speaker 1: Is gonna keep running the yard line or classic Brady
gifts ground fires are screened to the right to Kevin
fault again.
Speaker 5: It's falkventy five to thirty five to the thirty four
of them.
Speaker 1: See all this explains. Are you not getting it?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 1: It all explains to Ron mcdonny. Down one more Brady.
Brady looks fires, got Kevin and it's falk again. They
can't stop. Fault line goes fall and I love man.
See I don't watch the NFL because they hate my guts.
But man, I'm already up, my heart rates up, my
adrenalinees up. And Brady pull it off. You know, he's
Tom Brady.
Speaker 5: There it is, And I'm looking at the guy who'd
wondered fifty six with Denver Broncos what was it?
Speaker 1: What that safety? What happened? And he gets it. Oh, oh,
they gave us two. We didn't get three or seven.
They gave us two. So how does this explain? Zeron Manzami?
This way when Bill Belichick took the team aside and
said to the defense to be doing the kicking defensive unit, guys,
we're gonna purposely give them a safety. So he says
to the long snapper, I want you to snap this
way over the punter's head. It has to go so high.
I want it out of the end zone, like no risk,
this can't we can't have any chance of a touchback here.
So I want you to do that. The long snapper
could have said, no, that's gonna make me. I'm not
doing it. You know, I'm a guy that values my career.
I'm not doing it. So no, So it brings in
another long snapper. Long snappers says, absolutely, I'll do this,
and then the punches says, no way. You know what,
this is wrong for the NFL. This is cheating. It's
a form of cheating. I'm not doing it. So they're
bringing the backup punter and he just stands there and
the backup a long snapper does this thing and it
goes through, and then the offense comes out and you
got Kevin Falk making all the catches and then you
can have the wide receivers going. You know what, we're
a wide receiver team. You know, we're not going to
be doing these short, little stavvy plays out here to
these running backs. We are a wide receiver based team. Tom,
And if you're not going to do that, you know,
I'm just going to go outsides. I'll cost us this
game right now. And you could have the offensive line
and saying, wait, you want us to pretend we're getting
beat by their defensive line. No way, I don't care
if that's going to give room for Kevin Falk to
catch this short pass and start us, I'm not doing it.
In other words, they could all act like they come
from separate teams. Sorry, I'm a long pass guy. Sorry,
I'm a run first guy. Sorry, Bill Belichick. I'm not
gonna be involved in a fake safety or a purposeful safety.
What Zoran Mndami's doing by setting up separate countries within
New York City is to create just this circumstance. It
is designed to tear down because the only thing they
have in common is they want revenge against an America
they've been taught to hate, even as it brings them
in and rescues them. Story number two, Red states are
not safe. You know, I live in a red state.
We do the Todd Herman Show from the High Mountains
of Free America in North Idaho, and so a lot
of times people will tell us or say things like that, Man,
it's got to be such a relief to be surrounded
by conservative people and always kind of redirect the conversation
and let's talk about faith first. Let's talk about one
of the reasons why North Idah who is more conservative.
That's because it's more faithful. Because I'm not saying that
Jesus was a politician. He wasn't. There's absolutely no indication
that Jesus cared the least bit about politics, because if
he did, he could have been a political leader. Would
have been really easy for him to get audience with
political leaders because the power base that he built. But
I always start the conversation and yeah, but why are
we conservative? Well, we'll be conservative because it's a more
godly position because big government commits major sins like powering
lording the power over others, and big leftist government creates
numerous sins like forcing people to pay for abortions and
wrong sex surgery and wrong sex hormones and a moral
teachings around sexuality, anti Christian teaching around sexuality, which will
lead people to eternal ruin. So there's a great Christian
base here. But there's also then this conservatism, and part
of that has to do with the Idaho state of mind.
That were a state that was founded by people who
were loggers and ranchers and miners, and that's that's some
independent stuff because when you go stake a mine claim
for the first time and you're up there working on
your own, you don't have a lot of bureaucrats up
there telling you how to do your job. Same thing
with ranching right in the olden days, and and and
and logging. It's you and the team in the woods alone.
So there's still some of that that's left over here.
But there's some things that people in red states need
to understand, and there's some common tactics to left uses.
One of them has to do with density. Density is liberalism,
because density for the design of affordable housing becomes the
purview of the federal government. They seek that stuff and
then they redistribute people. Their entire plan is bureaucrats, is
to redistribute people in voting blocks. And they start by saying,
let's get them into the major cities where they don't
have to have cars. And then let's play along with
monetizing and conning people into creating walkable cities. And hey,
it's nice to be able to walk downtown. I get that,
but let's extend that. They say in the sidewalks everywhere,
walkability everywhere, give walkability scores, hand up money, hand up
money for transit. What they're trying to do is take
every city and turn it into a liberal paradise. They
will also commonly choose places that have playtime installed. And
we live near a city called Cordelaine. It's a beautiful
city with lots of play areas installed. It's just down
from Ski Ranges, et cetera. It's got one of the
most beautiful lakes in the world and it has a
beautiful lakefront, so the playtime is right there. So they
take density, they take transit, and then they take some
special special issues. Always wrapped up into the Angel of
light line, because Satan loves to hide as an angel
of light. So we're just gonna go out and we're
gonna have say, just to pride, pride. It's not gonna
be ones like the big city though, don't worry. We
just have one day, not a week, and it's gonna
be more sedate. We're not gonna have s and M
on the streets yet, and the process begins. I'm gonna
show you a proof that red states are not safe
and explain a little bit about what's going on in
Idaho in a second. Here there's parts of Mexico that
are distinctly unsafe. Man northern Mexico, You're not gonna see
me there at all. I'm not a chance I'm going
to Tijuana or any of the border cities because it's
a border war now. On the other hands, I go
regularly to Porto Varta. I go there for stem cell
treatment and to beat with my friends at Renew Healthcare.
The stem cells there are world class, and the stem
cells in America. I'm sorry, it's a joke. I wouldn't
put them in my body. You couldn't pay me to
put them in my body. At Renew, they know the
mother who provides the placenta and the bilical cord. They
monitor her health and her baby's health, and they're approaching
some pretty complex things like doubling the lifespan of someone
who was diagnosed with als, resetting people's entire immune systems.
How can stem cells do that? Because they're miraculous. They
destroy inflammation, they rebuild tissue, tendon, muscle, cartilage, bone, et cetera.
And yes, they can reset entire immune systems. Get in
touch with them. If you're hurting, it's renew r E
n U E dot healthcare. That's renew r E n
U E dot healthcare. This is a clown named Dan Gukin.
He is the new mayor of Cordelaine, Idaho.
Speaker 6: They don't give a and they all I'm a Bible
believe in Christian I believe in Jesus and it guides
my life as the Christian conservative, so Christian family values,
Christian conservative, mindless cult member group thinking moron Christians. They
tend to be the rudest, most disrespectful jerks I have
ever seen. I seriously think if Jesus were here today,
he would have a message for everyone who's a Christian
and he would just say, get those racists and white supremacis.
Speaker 2: Gay.
Speaker 6: I felt really gay last night to come over for
a gay time.
Speaker 1: Really gay.
Speaker 6: Christian nationalism now, but let's cut right to the chase.
It's white nationalism, real hardcore Christians and Christians to self
and to go to Hell.
Speaker 1: Yes, he is the new mayor of Corlaid. How does
this happen because of density? Because greedy developers decided to
build density around the college, North Idaho College so the
students would stay. Because greedy developers decided, you know, well,
let's give in to this federal pressure to build all
this low income housing. Let's give in to the pressure
to build this transit. And they're sitting here and watching
as Cordelaine goes the way of Boise, which has gone
the way of Seattle, which is going the way of godlessness.
Everywhere your red state is not safe. It's just not
story number three. Self love is a Christian virtue. Huh.
It's interesting. There's all sorts of ways that people are
distorting the gospel. And there's a service called the Faith
Community Virtual. So this was created kind of lockdown, like
how can we all have a faith community but never
have to get together in a church. And so let's
start right there, let's start right with that. Did Jesus
intend to have the Christians gather in person or it's
just just a modern construct? In other words, is the
church physical as important as the church body that is
the body of Christ. No, because nothing's as important as
the body of Christ. Nothing's important as important as living
out your faith, as abiding with Christ throughout your days
and nights, et cetera. Now, but is the church location important?
Jesus thought, so, how do we know? Jesus thought, so
did he say, go build a building. I've had this debate,
believe it or not. I've had this debate online with people,
and they'll say things like, oh, Jesus hated the temple,
that's why I tore it down. No, Jesus didn't hate
the temple, because Jesus went into the temple and said,
stop turning my father's house into a farmhouse. One of
the times that people loved to talk about Jesus supposedly
losing his temper was where he went and overturned the
tables in the temple because it had been used as
a farmhouse, and because technocratic religious authorities were conning people
and blackmailing people for access to the temple, a temple
Jesus loved. Jesus taught in the temple as a little boy.
When his parents lost track of him. There were a
couple of days out of town when they realized Jesus
wasn't with them and had to go back and find him.
And he said, why are you surprised him in my
father's house. Didn't you know I'd be in my father's house.
He was in there preaching and teaching as a child.
He loved the temple. When Jesus ascended back to heaven,
they said, it is upon this confession that I built
my church, speaking of the confession of Peter, who correctly said,
you are the Messiah, the son of God. Then you
had the disciples take over the apostles, discipled by Christ
the apostles. And what did they do? They set up
a physical location. What it was First it was a
house church, then it became churches at the same time
as they were building hospitals. Oh and by the way, universities,
so that the disciples could learn to speak the languages
of other countries, so they could more effectively spread the
word of Christ. So, yes, the church location is important.
So you can start here with the Faith Community Virtual
saying is that really what we should be focused on
is having people further apart. Christian A. Smith is the
founder and pastor of the Faith Community Virtual, and he
had something fascinating to say about a Christian virtue. I'll
explain this in a second, or rather have him do
it than I'll respond, no doubt. We live in times
that Jesus predicted, God predicted. He knows what's to happen.
He knows what we're going to go through. I happen
to think that the Antichrist might use AI. I think
he might use it a lot. Maybe he can be
AI generated. We're living in an era where AI is
changing things enormously, taking away three thousand, three hundred thousand,
four unite thousand dollars year jobs. That wasn't supposed to happen.
It was just supposed to come for the little people's jobs.
That's pretty enormous. You have Amazon saying that they might
not need to hire six million people. That's a pretty
big change, particularly if you're one of the people set
to be hired. My friend Zach Vigor Abraham is the
chief investment officer Bulwarck Capital Management. He's putting in a

Truck twenty five Dash three three eight. Here's Kristen A. Smith.
He is the founder and posture of the Faith Community Virtual.
Speaker 7: The greatest commandment is love God with your heart, soul, mind,
and your strength. And the second part is like it,
love your neighbor as yourself. People completely leave out the
as yourself. Another thing people will do that bastardizes that
text is they'll say, but you see, you gotta love
God first God. The love for God is most important
and everything else is secondary. That's not what the text
is because again translation is an act of interpretation. So
when the text says the second part is like it,
the term like that original term it means of equal rank.
Speaker 1: Love for God is of equal.
Speaker 7: Rank with love for neighbor as self, and he backs
it up by saying everything hinges on these too, so
they go hand in hand. You can't love God in
a way you don't love your neighbor. You can't love
your neighbor in a way you don't love yourself because
you project on the other people what you believe about yourself.
That's why I say that's a problem that we were
taught beliefs about God that conditioned us not to believe
in ourselves. Love God, and love your neighbor as yourself.
Let me tell you how critical self love is to
the Gospel. It's so critical that Jesus didn't even command it.
There is no commandment to love yourself.
Speaker 6: He assumed it.
Speaker 1: Wow, how does he know that? Maybe it's because he's
speaking the language of affirmation because the faith community virtual,
if you haven't guessed, it's all about LGB, so called
T and Q advocates, artists and friends. So what he's
speaking here of is self love of your self. Sin
see where he's building this up into and he's made
this major leap. It was so important to Jesus he
never mentioned it. He just assumed that people would know.
That is an incredible.
Speaker 7: Gap, love God and love your neighbor as yourself. So
the greatest commandment is love God and love your neighbor.
But love yourself is the greatest assumption. Jesus assumes you
know you gotta love yourself, But barely any of us
were taught we had to love ourselves.
Speaker 1: Apostle Paul loved Jesus unquestionably. He gave his life for Jesus.
And he talked about being a person who did what
he shouldn't do and had trouble doing what he should
and he spoke about that with sorrow. He spoke about
being a weak man, and he gloried in his weakness,
because in weakness was Christ. That's not self love, it's
under standing self, it's loving others. Throughout the Bible, we're
told no greater love has man than to lay down
his life for a brother. That is loving your brother
more than you love yourself, more than you love your life.
Jesus said, those who love their life will lose it.
Those who lose their life will find it. He's saying
who lose give up their focus and their fleshy life
and choose the spiritual life will find it. Will find
it in him. But to this man's point. He's saying
that there is no difference between love the Lord your
God with your heart, entire heart, mind, soul, and strength,
and love your neighbor as yourself. The second one is
like it comparable. Let's go to the Ten Commandments, because
Jesus was in the Old Testament era until Jesus went
three days to death. The body died for three days
up until Jesus came back. In fact, when Jesus rose again,
we entered into the era of Christ. Up until then
we were in the Old Testament era and the ten commands,
and start it this way. I am the Lord Thy God.
You shall have no strange gods before me. That's about God.
Number two, you shall not take the Lord God's name
in vain. Number three, remember to keep the Holy the
Lord's day. You get to the fourth commandment before you
get to anything related not related to God. Honor Thy
father and mother. You shall not kill, you shall not
commit adultery. So the first three commandments are about honoring God.
We need to recognize in ourselves that we need God
that were broken by sin. And yes, we love ourselves
to the degree that we allow ourselves to be sanctified
to be more and more like Jesus. But what we
seek to do as Christians is to decrease again. Paul
taught he wanted to decrease to have Christ increase, or
taught them Bible that when we repent of our sins
and accept the Lord Jesus as our savior, we confess
it with our mouths and our hearts, the Holy Spirit
changes us. And when he changes us, he's making us
into a new being. That when we sin and we
repent and we ask forgive this, the Lord sees not
us but Jesus. We're to love God with our entire heart, mind, soul,
and strength, so we can become someone around whom God
can spend time. He already loves us, but sin keeps
him apart from us. Because what this guy's building up to,
of course, is your sin, because they're advocates of same
sex activity they're building up into. Loving yourself is accepting
your sin. Even the Apostle Paul, one of the strongest
Christians who's ever lived, didn't accept his sin, even going
to the point of telling us even as he went
to his own death on behalf of Christ, he still
struggled with it. This guy's wrong. It's heretical, it's not unique,
and it's not clever. It's just wrong. This is the
Todd Hermann Show. Please go, be well, be strong, be kind,
and please make every effort to walk in the line
of Christ.
