Speaker 1: Welcome to the three stories version of the Todd Herman Show.
Story number one the Era of the plastic Mayor. Story
number two, ms now makes kindness into a race war.
Story number three stop attacking megachurches. Jesus loves them. We'll
talk about this with the help of God Almighty.
Speaker 2: But Todd Herman Show is one disapproved by big pharma
technocrats in tyrans everywhere from the high mountains of Free America.
Here's the Emerald City exime Todd Herman.
Speaker 1: Today is the day the Lord has made, and these
are the times to which God has decided we shall live.
What was the most useless of your childhood toys? Some
plastic toy that wasn't necessarily plastic, Stretch Armstrong. What did
stretch do? You just stretched him? I mean, I guess
you could stretch him around things. He was sort of
an advanced plastic I guess. And we're in the era
of the plastic mayor. Useless but harmful. Now, see, Stretch
Armstrong wasn't harming anybody. It was just not useful. But
there are things that harm people, plastic things that harmed people.
We talk about microplastics in the ocean, getting into fisient
into your bloodstream, and Americans are walking around some percentage
of microplastics in our bloodstream. We have plastic mayors in
our political bloodstream, and sometimes they're just stopping things up.
That's leading to strokes within the body politic. And they
serve a purpose. I mean, stretch armstrong was fun to
stretch and throw, et cetera. There were other toys like slime,
remember the buckets slime, and that was apparently an industrial experiment.
The big rumor was it was to put I don't know,
to make your car tires look good, and it didn't work,
and so they made it into a gar can and
you take this and it was slimy and fun, but
it ended there in the air of the plastic mayor.
They're slimy, but they're not particularly fun, and they are
like a microplastic within the political environment, the body politic.
And I'm going to work my way down to showing
you the ultimate and plasticity of a mayor, in other words,
someone who is animatory and yet's absolutely a drop of
plastic or plastic goo. We'll start with Mayor Karen Bass
of Los Angeles. She knows someone is to blame for
people leaving the state of California and outflowing to places
like Texas and Florida. She knows this and it might
be Trump, but it's probably not because she has a
very distinct point of view on who's not to blame.
Speaker 3: And people are starting to feel and have been feeling,
that Los Angeles is just different.
Speaker 1: I've never I've.
Speaker 3: Had conversations with people that left Los Angeles because of crime.
It is because they can't afford it.
Speaker 1: So what do we tell those.
Speaker 3: That don't believe in politicians or believe in the mayor
or the governor or a senator.
Speaker 1: Why we've heard this before.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but you know what though, I think that's another
part of our American culture. Obviously, people in office are important,
but there's no way in the world it should be
viewed as the mayor, the governor, Congress is going to
take care of everything. It's all of our responsibilities. So
what I've always done, especially starting off as a community organizer,
community activist, it's always been about community for me and
getting people involved.
Speaker 1: People are a year or more after the politic States fire,
unable to build a garden shed without violating code rules.
You had MacArthur Park one of the most beautiful parks
in California, overrun by heroin and fentanyl zombies and the
cartel drug dealers who sell them stuff. And your approach
was to build an eighteen foot fence around the park
rather than to allow ice in to clear the park out.
And the community is to blame. You have driven California
into a state of functional bankruptcy structural bankruptcy, and people
voted against these things, and there to blame. See the
plastic mayor serves part of this in the slime sense,
and that nothing stuck to slime. I mean really, I
remember taking the slime out of my garbage can toy
and putting it in sand, and it looked really bad
until I just ran it underwater and then the sand
came off. It just wouldn't stick to it. And the
air of the plastic mayor has that sort of advantage.
Things don't stick. This is Chicago's mayor, brand the Johnson,
and Chicago's mayor Brandon Johnson oversees the city where as
you well know, the number one cause of death of
young black men continues to be young black men. Where
you well know that if President Trump in sending in
ice and National Guards troops to help back up Ice
was able to deliver some drops in crime and shooting.
Praise God. You know that the we're community members, they're
begging for that. You may have seen the videos of
community members in Chicago, many of them happened to be black, saying, hey,
can we get some police support. We'd rather not have
our kids have their lives ended as they're sitting in
the back seat of the car in their child seat,
waiting for a happy meal at McDonald's. But plastic Mayor
of Chicago, Brandon Johnson, he's figured some stuff out about
crime with his plastic brain.
Speaker 5: We cannot incarcel rate our way out of violence. We've
already tried that, and we've ended up with the largest
prison population in the world. Without solving the problems of
crime and violence, the addiction on jails and incarceration in
this country. We have moved past that. It is racist,
it is immoral, it is unholy, and it is not
the way to drive violence down.
Speaker 1: No. In fact, prison doesn't drive violence down because we're
broken by sin, and it's part of the human condition
to be broken by sin. And you're making heroin and
fentanyl available in the open which creates a rush for
that to cartels to come in. They happen to be
very violent people. Blocking the border from people like that
or deporting them can drive down the presence of violence people,
which actually then drives down the violence because there's fewer
violent people. You've encouraged a sense of hopelessness in the
black community, particularly young among young black men, by telling
them the only hope they have is basketball or becoming
a movie director or a rapper, or having Hillary Clinton
or some white woman like Nancy Pelosi provide them with
a sustenance check. That will create hopelessness and that can
contribute to violence. Changing that narrative that can drive violence down.
Bringing Black families back together can bring violence down. Bringing
families back together can bring violence down. Bringing people back
into the church proper can bring violence down. What putting
people in prison does is takes violent people out of
society until you stop putting them in prison and you
create the revolving door. But plastic Mayor Brandon Johnson doesn't
have to actually Mayor. This is the thing about stretched Armstrong.
He actually never did a thing. You stretched him and
that was it. You might tie his arms around something,
but he couldn't hold anything. It eventually unstretch he provided
no purpose. In the case of Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson,
he's provided his purpose. He stood there and was black.
There you go, purpose fulfilled. Karen Bass sat there and
was black, purpose fulfilled, just like Stretched Armstrong. See it
matters the color of plastic. Usually in the case of
Stretch Armstrong, what was he? He was a green? Right, wasn't
he some weird green like dark greenish blue color. I
guess his color doesn't matter. It does with the case
these mayors, because plastic matters, because it's image period box
checking image. Now, I'm going to show you the most
plastic mayor in all the United States of America in
just a second. And we're going to start with economics,
because she explains and shows that she doesn't understand economics
by explaining her economic approach, which is going to affect everybody,
because Seattle's economy can contribute to the downfall of the
national economy, and all bad economic ideas and social ideas
are started in that stew of leftists madness in Seattle,
and this is gonna affect your retirement. Your retirement is
affected by plastic mayors. And plastic administrators and plastic heads
of banks where there's figureheads. Times have change, and I'm
going to bet your retirement account wasn't created for times
of volatility like this. Fortunately, my friend Zach Abraham, the
chief and investment officer Bulwarck Capital Management, will put his
team on a review of your portfolio. He will do
this no charge, no expectation. All he asks you to
do is just show up for the meeting. He will
meet with you three separate times. One is just a
quick one to make sure you guys even like each other,
because if he's going to manage your money, you're going
to want to talk to him on a regular basis.
Number Two to understand what you expect out of retirement.
Number three to come back and say, hey, look, you
might be exposed to a ton of risk. Bulwick hates that,
so they might show you're exposed to a bunch of risk.
They might come and tell you, you know, what your portfolio
is golden, don't you dare change a thing. They may
even come along and say, hey, get out now, you're
going to retire now, or they might say you probably
need our help. Here's what we want to do. In
any case, it's free, there's no obligation. Just go to

three eight. Katie Wilson is a woman in Seattle who
is a plastic mayor. She got away with big white
well she's socialists and therefore she is the great white
hope of the sainted BIPOC people because according to the left,
that label, that BIPOC label, means that they're flawless. But
sometimes they need great white savers like Katie Wilson, who
has added her professional career, not had a job for real.
She headed up the Transit Writers Union. That's no, I
didn't say transit union, not transit workers. Transit riders, people
who ride buses and choo choo trains and rental bicycles
and scooters and trolley cars. She headed that organization up
in Buvrad in the separate country of Sattle. They've got
major power, like to seize roadways so that you can't commute,
which has driven businesses out of town Seattle because people
can't shop and don't want to take to choo choo train.
Katie Wilson is so plastic. I think she's the most
plastic of them all. Let's start with her statements on economics.
Speaker 6: I don't agree with everyone on my transition team about everything,
and they don't agree with me on everything either. But
I'm a firm believer that you don't need to agree
on everything in order to be able to work together.
That's the approach I've taken throughout my career as a
community organizer. It led to coalitions that won the highest
minimum wage in the country, taxes on large corporations, stronger
runner protections, and better access to public transit. We're facing
real challenges here in Seattle, from an escalating homelessness crisis
to out of control cost of living, and it's going
to take all of us to tackle those together.
Speaker 1: So her solution is not sweeping homeless camps, not bringing
business back in not recognizing the fact that she's never
actually had a career, though she mentioned one. She was
a community organizer, just like Karen Bass. It's all about
organized in the community. My friend Ariy Hoffman AUF been
a very successful talk show and writer in the Seattle area.
He's at the Post Millennium's at five seventy KVII, which
carries our weekends syndicated program Procrastination. Ariy Hoffman pointed something
out about Katie Wilson. The structure of Wilson's office is
built to reduce the number of people who directly report
to her as mayor, a recommendation laid out in a
post primary memo crafted by Mayor's office alumni. By consolidating
departments oversight under one person, the hope is to elevate
the expertise contained among longtime city staff for greasing the
skids for collaboration. Advisors warned Wilson against an overly factional office. Therefore,
she will have no direct reports save one the city's
policy lead, a guy named Brian Surat, who has been
in charge of the policies that have destroyed commercial real
estate in Seattle, that have driven down the rental market,
that has led to the human zombies, the fentanyl and
heroine zombies on the streets, the highest recorded rapes in
the city in its history, violent assaults, vandalism, break ins
car theft all at record levels. In corporate America, this
is referred to one in a box. You never do that.
If you only have one direct report, you roll up
into someone else's organization because you're not actually managing everything.
And there's the proof. Katie Wilson is not a mayor.
She's a plastic ornament. She's like a female stretched armstrong,
except she can't be stretched at all because she's brittle
and breakable, because she's there to simply do one thing.
Be a one dimensional box that's been checked. Socialist woman
story number two. Miss Now makes kindness into a race war. Yeah,
so it's no longer MSMB and I think a good
nickname for it is miss now because they miss everything.
Except it's not missing. It's all on purpose. One of
their commentators took to the cell phone video because it's
very personal, you know, very warm. It's just breaking through
that wall between you and important celebrities to declare victory
in a race war sold to us as kindness. We've
been told that the only way to be kind in
our country is to have no borders, to open the borders,
and to not care about the mental complex of people
who come into a country or their spiritual makeup. It's
perfectly fine to bring people into a country who want
to build their own country within our country, even though
a house divided against itself must fall. Bible tells us
that therefore is true. So I'm watching a guy in
this video declare victory on a race war they started
using kindness and accusing us of being the mean ones
for simply wanting to say, hey, can we actually go
back to having a border and having some control over
who comes into the country and choosing to have people
come in who want the American system of being free
to use your life to pursue liberty, happiness, et cetera,
not having it guaranteed, and certainly not building up little
countries within our country. I'll show you what this is
going on here in this race war that they started
and in which they're declaring victory here in just a second.
Speaker 6: Look.
Speaker 1: It doesn't compare to real war, that's for sure. Praise God.
It's spiritual. All things are real war spiritual as well.

This is a guy named Waja hats Ali and he
is not some cat with an anonymous Twitter profile or
ex profile. He's a New York Times columnist. He gets
to hang out some places like ms now or missed.
Now and listen and watch this man declare victory in
a race war they started under the cloak of kindness.
Speaker 7: You have lost.
Speaker 2: You lost.
Speaker 7: The mistake that you made is you let us in
the first place. That's thing with brown people. I'm gonna
say this as a brown person. There's a lot of us,
like a lot. There's like one point two billion in
India that's born than two hundred million in Pakistan. The's
one hundred and seventy million in buggledation. Doing are just
the people there. I'm even talking about the folks who
are expats or immigrants. There's a bunch of us, and
we breed. We're a breeding people. And the problem is
is you let us in an nineteen sixty five there
was a there were a few of us beforehand. But
once you let one of us in, you know what
happens with brown folks. Our grandmother comes, our grandfather comes,
our uncle comes, our aunt comes, our cousin comes, our
second cousin comes, our third cousin comes. Then we have kids,
a bunch of kids, and then guess what. Some white women,
you know, the Western civilization women, the pure women, the
American women, qute unquote the Ross Belt women, the real women.
They like some of us brown folks, we don't take them.
They come to us. So we're embedded. We are everywhere.
We are everywhere. I have traveled this country almost beeak
as a brown person. Brown people are everywhere. There will be
a Patel Motel, or there will be a Daisy restaurant everywhere.
I want you to realize this. You have lost. Your
story is a story filled with misery. It's filled with
bland chicken. It's filled with terrible, terrible, dry meat. Your
music sucks all. Your culture sucks nobody. That's why the
kids like listening to black people and their music. That's
why the kids love Latinos already suck because they're monochromatic.
Our parties have better food, better music, better looking women.
Speaker 1: But he's not racists, and he's not egging on a
race war. He is egging on a race war. He
wants to be attacked. I refuse to play the game
by pretending his skin color is the issue. I don't
even know that he's all that brown. The issue is
the spiritual states of people we import to our country.
A lot of them hate the Christian faith, Satan loves that.
A lot of them hate America. He does because our
whole thing sucks. There's no virtue in the American system.
And some of the countries he's named. Bangladesh, man, they're rocking.
That's a great place. India, that cast system, man, that's beautiful.
I love that. Where see the little kids who can't walk,
and so they live in filth and mud on the
side of the street and people walk past them. Hey,
this is what you earned, this is your this is
your role in life. Now, this is your reincardinated self.
Look at that, such such good culture. And what he's
hoping for is to be attacked, and so don't. What
he's hoping for is to be hated and therefore infamous.
So don't. He's not worth it, and it's certainly not
worth losing your soul or to love our enemies even
as we hate what they're doing. And he is our enemy.
He's declaring it. What he's hoping for is for more
things to happen like this. Benny Johnson's family was threatened.
Guy was going around the neighborhoods where Benny lives, trying
to find him and threatening his neighbors. Said that he
was going to go out and shoot a bunch of
conservative commentators praise God. Benny's okay, he shared a mug
shot of this cat. Tim Poole, his house was shot at.
Someone came up to their property, approached it in a
vehicle and shot at it. And Tim has the videos
to prove this. What this guy wa jahat Ali wants
is to win, either spiritually by forcing us to hate
him or kinetically through a race war he sold into
this country with kindness. Story number three. Stop attacking megachurches.
Jesus loves megachurches full stop. No, he loves them all.
Jesus loves the terrible megachurches. He loves the good megachurches.
And that megachurch slur. You're slurring, Jesus. People use megachurches
to slur for a lot of good reasons. There's lots
of good reasons to hate some megachurches. Therefore it's become
the slur against all churches. Some of the reasons to
hate megachurches are pretty clear if you look at some
of the things that megachurches do. I don't know where
Jesus is at in this. It's just a great, big,
huge Hollywood stage show and it's aggrandizing the pastor as
he comes up on a riser like Paul Stanley from
Kiss or Gene Simmons. Well, it did this so Mick Jagger,
David Lee Roth flying arounds in the jump video. And
you can take the money you can put on the spectacle,
and then you can ask yourself with the spectacle, how
many people could we have fed? How much could we
do for the least of these? You make this spectacle
the spectacle, and you end up making the spectacle the church,
and that ends up erasing the word of Christ to
some degree. Never fall away, never be done away with.
Jesus made that clear. But Jesus loves them, and if
they're false prophets, they've got a big negative reward waiting
for him. But the megapart, there's a lot of people there.
Jesus loves the sinner, even if he hates the sin.
And megachurch what does that actually mean. It means a
bunch of people. If you look at the meaning that
AI applies to this, it looks at twenty two hundred
people who regularly attend weekend services. That's a megachurch. And
there are people who say they hate megachurches, because they're
too big. And I have just one question for you.
Does Jesus think so? Did Jesus go out and say,
build small churches to twenty people forty maybe one hundred,
but definitely two hundred and fifties too many people? Maybe
Jesus had the pizza rule. The guy knew who was
a brilliant developer, tech guy and leader of tech teams,
had a pizza rule. Once your team needed more than
two pizzas to have a meeting of the entire staff,
your team is too big and needed to be split up.
That was the pizza rule. Did Jesus have that? No,
he wants as many people saved as possible. He wants
his few to be lost as possible. Therefore, Jesus loves megachurches.
He hates the bad behavior. He hates what megachurches can become.
And there's some things that happen within megachurch environments that's
easy to see why Jesus would hate them, such as
megachurch pastors who refuse to speak the word of God.
That's not the megachurch, it's the mega pastor that Jesus
would spit out of his mouth, not even that He's
not even luke warm, it's false teaching. And then that way, yes,
that mega pastor can earn himself a very special place
in the wrath of God. Under the wrath of God,
I'll show you that in a second. But stop saying
megachurches as a slur, because Jesus loves them. Jesus invented
free speech as part of the triun Godhead. He invented it.
He is also very much pro accountability because as part
of the Triune Godhead, he also invented that. There hasn't
been a lot of accountability for people who misled us
and lied to us during the COVID era, namely doctor Fauci.
At the top of that, there's a new movie that
calls him to account with exclusive interviews and some amazing
conclusions such as, we're really dealing with some double agents
spying on us, on behalf of the Chinese Communist Party,
and we spying on them. We may be in a
bio weapons race with them. Oh and by the way,
did you know about the poliotie into the COVID shots.
It's called Thank You, Doctor Fauci. You could stream it immediately.
It's at angel dot com. Slash Herman. That's angel dot
com slash Herman, and don't just stream thank you, doctor Fauci.
Become an Angel Guild member and vote so that more
films like this are made and distributed. Angel dot com
slash Herman. Jesus does not hate big churches. He wants
to see a bunch of people come forward to accept
the Lord Jesus as their savior, to confess him in
their hearts and minds and ultimately with their mouths, and
to show this through baptism, and to go and make disciples. Now,
he wants us to understand that to him, church is
not a place, it's a being. It's a bunch of us.
It's the body of Christ. Therefore, how could Christ wants
the body of Christ to be huge? Hate megachurches as
a category. He hates bad behavior. He hates things like
this coming from a mega pastor and oldie, but a
goodie but worth mentioning again. Joel Olstein back in the
day with Larry King, Phoenix, Arizona.
Speaker 8: Hello, Hello Larry, You're the best, and thank you Joel
for your positive messages and your book. I'm wondering, though,
why you signed to Larry's earlier question about how we
get to heaven. The Bible clearly tells us that Jesus
is the way, the truth and the light, and the
only way that the Father is through him. That's not
really a message of condemnation, but of truth.
Speaker 9: Yeah, I would agree with her.
Speaker 1: I believe that.
Speaker 9: No, Well, here's my thing, there is. I can't judge
somebody's heart, you know, I don't know. Only God can
look at somebody's heart, and so I don't know. I
just to me, it's not my business to say, you know,
this one is or this one isn't. I'm just saying,
here's what the Bible teaches.
Speaker 1: And I want to put my faith in, uh, you know,
in Christ.
Speaker 9: And I just I think it's wrong when we go
around saying, you know, you're not going, you're not going,
You're not going because it's not exactly my way. I'm
just I'm not going to believe. I believe my way.
Speaker 1: I believe my way with all my heart.
Speaker 2: But doesn't share it.
Speaker 7: Well, he is wrong, and well.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 9: If I look at it like that, I would I
would present my way, but I'm just gonna let God
be the judge of that.
Speaker 1: And I don't know. Yeah, God's already been the judge Joel,
and he said, I am the way, the truth in
the life, and no one goes to the Father but
for me. That's not your way. Your way is refusing
to confess Christ as the only savior. So Christ can
hate that mega pastor and hate what he does, he
can love him and hate what he does. He can
call him a false prophet, false teacher because he is.
I don't care about Joel Olstein's way. I care about
what Christ said. Jesus said to me and to you
and to everybody, I am the way, the truth of
the life. No one comes to the Father but through me.
That's not a megachurch. It's a megapastor with a mega
ego and megabox. Now I don't think Rick Warren's on
that same level. But Rick Warren took a lot of heat,
and rightly so for a tweet he put out and
later tried to walk back. And he didn't walk it
back that successfully. He posted this John nineteen eighteen. They
crucified Jesus with two others, one on each side and
Jesus in the middle. The guys on both sides were thieves.
If you're looking for the real Jesus, not a characterture
disfigured by Potterson motivations. You'll find him in the middle,
not on either side. No you won't. You'll find my
the top. You find him at the top of all things,
even as he kneels to wash feet. You'll find him
everywhere in everything. So Christ, Jesus, there's no such thing
as a partisan divide. There is his word, and it
is his word and his instructions we're told to follow,
such as this, all power on heaven and earth has
been granted unto me. Therefore, go and make disciples of
all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father,
the Son, and the Holy Spirits, and teaching them to
obey all I have commanded you, for I will be
with you always, even to the end of the age.
Go and make disciples, but not too many. Make sure
that it's only twenty one hundred and ninety nine per
weekend service, because if you get to twenty two hundred,
that's a megachurch, and I hate it. Jesus doesn't hate megachurches.
Stop using it as a slur, and instead focus on
the behaviors, not the size the congregation. This is the
Todd Hermann Shaw. Please go, be well, be strong, be kind,
and please make every effort to walk in the light
of Christ.
