It's pledged to be here today.
Never fear, my friends. Since Wednesday, Since Wednesday, Vice President Kamala Harris has been on it. After tackling the issue of illegal integration so well, so Well did an outstanding job at shutting that down. They have now determined she's onto her next projects, which is stopping hatred around the globe. I mean, it is remarkable what these folks think that they can do.
By forming a commission, by signing a sheet of paper, by naming someone to be the bizarre of something, they can eradicate all the problems on the globe. And of course all they do, repeatedly, all these folks do is make things worse for all of us. For all of us, So I want to talk about that today. I want to talk a little bit about what's happened in the House of Representatives, this censure vote, I should say, of Representative Rashida Talib and the Republicans who did not vote to
censure her. There's a question. We are on a Friday. It's Friday, it's card I mean, we're in November. It's Friday. We're moving headlong into the holidays. It's a crazy, crazy, crazy time of year, moving along quickly. And I got this question in response to a column I wrote a week or two ago and just want to address it on here. And it's got me to thinking about maybe some other questions to address as well that I get from time to time, but we will those are That's
the kind of the outline of what I want to hit today. And I welcome you to the program. If you want to participate in today's discussion, I welcome you. Welcome you to do so by emailing me Todd at todoshow
dot com. You can also text three one seven two one zero twenty eight thirty and you can jump on our social media channels and jump in there as well share our content that would help those sorts of things as we are in growth mode here now that we've joined partnered with Audio one, now that we're expanding and so forth. If you want to help continue to get the message
out about this program, that would help us too. You can get on our social media channels, in particular Twitter and TikTok, which is crazy for me to say we're on Instagram and Facebook tub but anyway, that's how you can help, and that's where you can share your thoughts, feedback, opinions,
and yes, always include that adoration and praise. So I want to start take a half a step back and kind of talk about what I talked about off the top, which is Kamala Harris being assigned or she's the spokesperson. She came out, she did a short video talking about anti semitism. Now, in fairness, she talks about anti semitism, she talks about hate in multiple forms, and she denounces it in general, which is good.
I mean, anytime that we can have a politician in today's world, especially someone on the left, denounce all hatred, even hatred against maga Republicans folks, I'm going to start saying that they have magaphobia. These magaphobes out there. They cannot see past their blind hatred and rage for Trump and for those who vote for Trump. But I do applaud. I do applaud, and it's just words, but I mean it takes a lot of gumption. I've
encountered people who refuse to just state the obvious. For example, they refuse oftentimes, these radical leftists, they refuse to say that the just a blanket statement. Innocent Palestinians dying, innocent Israeli's dying. Let's just take it across the board. Jewish, Muslim, Christian, Atheist, white, black, Hispanic Asian, male, female, no matter who it is, that is an innocent civilian who is caught up in any sort of violence, terrorism,
or some of these responses to the acts of terrorism. It is absolutely awful and terrible when innocent civilians, women and children are killed. I cannot believe I have to make this statement. I have to make it because many on the godless radical left refuse to make it. By the way, these are the people who walk around cities like New York and they rip the posters,
riped the pictures down of kidnapped Israelis. You've seen this, undoubtedly, and they feel justified they walk brazenly across college campuses through big cities, and they walk up and they start ripping down pictures of people who have been kidnapped in these brutal terrorist attacks against the nation of Israel, and they feel justified.
They feel empowered because they have not been condemned universally, especially by those on the left, especially like those like Rashida Talib in Congress, which we're going to get to that in a moment and do course here. But I remember I played an audio sound bite a couple of weeks ago, and I say, it's a sound bite of Rashida Tulib, but it really isn't a sound bite of Rashida Talib, the radical leftist who is a member of Congress from
the state of Michigan. She is asked by a reporter if she can condemn Hamas for the killing of babies, and she doesn't say a word. What is so hard about that? My friends? Why the reluctance to say that? And I understand there is a reluctance because she doesn't want some clip of her saying anything derogatory about Hamas or anything happening amongst the Palestinian people. If
there's anything bad there. She wants there to be no video audio evidence that she's said anything remotely close to critical of people that she is endorsing and supporting. It sounds like, in total, in totality, just from beginning to end, blanket endorsement of everything that happens there, and by contrast, blanket disapproval of the people of Israel, of the Jewish people. She condones the chanting of things like from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free,
which of course we've gone through. Of course, you know, if you don't know, the river they're referring to is the Jordan River, which runs through eastern Israel, and to the sea that's the Mediterranean Sea, the border to the west. They want to i every person who is Jewish Israeli
into that sea. That is their solution. And we're told, we're told by these people with academic hats on, these pointy headed academics, these liberal, very liberal leftists, tell us that the solution here is a ceasefire. Solution is a ceasefire. So you have hamas they come and they launch a Some have compared it to nine to eleven. By the way, if you're going to compare January sixth to nine to eleven, as some of these lunatics
in Congress have done. If you're going to compare January sixth to nine to eleven or January sixth to Pearl Harbor, which is what some of these jokers and clowns have done on that January sixth commission. I don't know if Kensinger did it. Kenzinger was thinking about doing it, if he didn't do it. Liz Cheney, I don't know if she'd she was thinking about doing it,
if she didn't do it. But a lot of these leftists, a lot of these democrats, they have no problems, no problems calling a maga Republican, a conservative, someone on the what they'll call the far right,
or a domestic terrorist. But those words are not uttered. I just played a sound bite yesterday or the day before, Peter Doucy asking Karine Jean Pierre, spokesperson for the White House for the administration, that very question, if Trump supporters, if Republicans, are domestic terrorists, can you say the same of those who are carrying out actual terrorist activities in Israel? And of course
there's a reluctance to do this. It's remarkable, really and I don't know if you've seen footage from around the world, by the way, as I'm just envisioning that region and thinking, I don't know if you've seen Ertawan in front of what appears to be the whole nation of Turkey, the streets flooded, seeing the things that he's saying to the people of Turkey, some things that are very aggressive towards the West in general and specifically to the United States
of America, specifically to the nation of Israel. And this is happening all over the Middle Eastern Muslim world, some places, of course more than others, of course, being led by the lunatics, the perpetrators of terror, the state sponsors of terror, Iran themselves. So it is a tense situation. And I know that there's obviously, obviously there are things that the United States of America has to be considerate of and aware of and to navigate this
properly. But we have to defend. And when I say defend, I don't mean I'm not saying go to war. I'm just saying we have to support. It starts with supporting, right, it starts with supporting Israel. It starts by speaking out against the atrocities, which we've done on this program, which many of you do in your circles, and calling out the real hatred that I see that Kamala is supposed to be fighting, which she says she's gonna fight. But when she gets to the end of her speech,
her three minute little video which I've got, I'll put it. It'll be in today's stack of stuff, but it will also be I tweeted it out. I think maybe maybe yesterday anyway. So there's obviously tension, there's hatred, there's anger, there's fear in a lot of different places. There's no doubt about that. The start of the hatred and the rage and the start of the problem is with the terrorists. This should go without saying. This
should go without saying. Hamas is the problem. Hamas is the problem for those who have problems with Israel's response. And I know it is tragic sometimes what is happening in the response, But why is the focus always on the response and not on the people who created the situation to begin with? This is where talk like proportionality comes in and so forth. It's I don't think that here in this country we have a clear understanding. You do but many
people don't. Israel's a tiny nation surrounded by people that one it wiped off the face of the planet, from terrorist organizations to the nation of Iran, to people in Syria, to people in Lebanon. Lebanon. There's a city here not too far from me that I call Lebanon, Indiana. But Lebanon, I don't know if they call it. I don't think anybody calls it Lebanon, Indiana. But anyway, so we've got a tinder box. It's rooted in religion. There is millennia of history here, going back to Biblical
times. It's a perfect storm in so many ways. Then you've got China and Russia on the peripher but sticking their nose in the situation. Then you've got, of course Taiwan and China. You've got Ukraine and Russia. You got the United States, who's kind of got its nose everywhere. And in some ways I understand it. In some ways, I think the United States
need needs to be a little bit more strategic and thoughtful here. By the way, we can't just be writing blank checks to everybody or sending large amounts of money, as the House is working on sending a fourteen and a half
billion dollar package to Israel. I think you can support I don't know when it happened when just by supporting someone we could we can deploy a carrier group, right, a couple of carrier groups if we need to, and say we're here just to you know, kind of send the message we don't want this to expand it to something else without sending massive amounts of money. Israel's
got the tools to fight what it what she needs to fight. I don't you can support something without saying we've got to send billions of dollars to something.
I don't. We've lost that apparently in America today. So you get this tension and turmoil, and then you've got Kamala who says, hey, you know, or the Biden administration that says, hey, we're going to fight, We're going to fight this hatred around the world, which I mean sounds great, right, I mean it sounds great, But the reality is these problems run really, really deep, and you cannot solve them with some slick ad campaign for a president with the president. Can't you can't do some
videos, you can't hold some some sort of a summit. You can't go and give a speech and think that this problem is solved. This problem runs incredibly deep. And on top of all of that, if you listen to Kamala's speech was maybe I'll play part of it. I don't know, but Kamala talks about hatred and all forms, and I'm happy to hear finally a leftist come out and really to cry. Although they've been doing this more and more, but at first you didn't hear it as much the anti Semitism that's
been happening not just over there but here now. Right, So she goes through all that, she talks about, all the hatred, anti Semitism, Islamophobia she mentions as well, which, by the way, to be one hundred percent clear, as I said at the top, this to repeat the obvious hatred and all forms violence in all forms against any group of people,
unprovoked and unnecessary. Right, if you're not defending yourself, if you're taking an aggressive posture against the people because of something like the religion or race or whatever, we condemn that, right, We condemn that sort of behavior. However, However, the idea to me, and I know it's anecdotal, right, meaning just what I've seen in videos on social media, in news reports in the that have been showing up, you know, where people chant
from the river to the sea, Palestine should be shall be free. When you look at all this, and I think the White House calls this a task force or whatever they're calling it's it's to fight Islamophobia. That's the name Islamophobia is in the title. And I'm thinking, of course, that's we don't want people targeting anybody for any religion. But if you're gonna name it
something, why do you Why don't you pick anti Semitism? Because the ones that I'm seeing, what I'm aware of, and I'm I know, there's been a six year old child that was murdered, I think outside of Chicago by a landlord. Reprehensible and evil, my friends, absolutely reprehensible and evil.
But if I'm looking at sheer volume, if I'm looking at what's happening on college campuses, if I'm looking at what's happening in our city's streets, if I'm looking at what's happening in nations around the world, it's not an out pouring of Islamophobia. It's an outpouring of abject hatred, abject hatred for Israel. For Jewish people, and it's just ironic to me that you would call it. You know how the left does this. You know how the
left does this. They want to say, well, look, we're fighting terrorism, my friends, we're not we and these terrorists, by the way, are claiming to be doing these things in the name of Allah, in the name of Islam. Now they another Muslim can say they are misinterpreting. That's absolutely wrong. That doesn't go along with my faith, and there could be a fight amongst, you know, the Muslim community as to what is
actually the correct form of that particular religion. But to deny that they're doing it in the name of Allah is to I mean, they chant Allahu Akbar as they're committing these acts of terrorism. And this is not this is something
that a first grader could understand. And there's not a major outpouring people in the streets trying to round up And there's the video of Russia was a Dakistan recently where they they stormed an airport because they heard a plane carrying Jewish people were there, people that had done nothing had been They broke into and charged the tarmac, trying to break into an aircraft that had landed. I'm aware of nothing like this where people are systematically targeting people of the Muslim faith,
and if they are, denounce it completely. If someone's fighting terrorism, that's being that's being carried out in the name of Allah, don't tell me that's Islamophobia. That's a justifiable war on terror. But if someone's targeting some because of their Islamic belief, wrong, But if someone's targeting someone because of their Jewish belief, absolutely wrong. I happen to see a ton more of the anti Semitic behavior, much more than what they term Islamophobia, And so far
as that happens, again, it's wrong. I just this is so basic, an elementary stuff. But the hatred is so deep and so profound. And I'm telling you a lot of this stems directly from the hatred of the God of the Bible, the God of the Old Testament, the God of the New Testament. People want nothing to do with him, those that have rejected him, and this is where it manifests itself sometimes. Anyway, timeouts in Order went really a long this segment with my friends. Oz tried her
best to keep me on task, she unfortunately failed. Quick time out next segment will be condensed. Apologies in the van sit tight back in a minute, Welcome back, my friends. So as kind of an extension or turning, turning it a little bit the direction of the conversation, we talked about the fight against hatred and Kamala being assigned to that. She's going to be the czar apparently, and boy, if she has as half as much success as she had along the border, I mean, then folks, this problem
will be sold by solved by the end of the weekend. I mean, she is on it. Kamala is absolutely on it. So we talked about that. But I again from my Vanish point. For my Vanish point, it looks like there's a lot more organized hatred against the Jewish people against Israel then there is against peaceful Muslims. There there is anger and hatred towards hamas Islamic fascist terrorists, but there's not again I'm not There's examples of it,
and I condemn it completely. It's reprehensible and evil if someone targets someone simply because of their faith, whatever that is Muslim or Christian or anything. But the idea that the main problem right now is Islamophobia is not something that computed now. For me, based on what I've seen to me, the problem is unequivocally hatred for Israel. Hatred justified, it's justified. It's justified on college campuses by professors. It's justified by some lunatics in the media. It's
justified by other radicals who have audiences and people paying attention to them. It's been justified in a lot of ways. Can you imagine if is the israelis if the Jewish people had the equivalent of the chant from the river to the sea, Israel shall be free. Can you imagine that? Would that be allowed to be yelled on college campuses? What about physical intimidation of students on college campuses, particularly of Jewish students. I've seen a lot of examples of
this. Jewish students are coming out in droves talking about how fearful they are, how much anger and hatred and anti Semitism they've been subjected to in the past almost a month now. From my Vanish point, the problem clearly seems to be the organized problem seems to be anti Semitism, hatred of the Jewish people, and hatred of the nation of Israel. So the kamala is on it probably going to be fixed by the end of the weekend. So peace
will be restored on planet Earth without a doubt. So in response to all of this stuff, I guess one of the stories that have come from all this tension and turmoil, the story domestically, domestically and politically is Rashida Talib. Rashida Talib, of course was speaking to a group of what some would call pro Palestinian protesters, what others would call pro Hamas sympathizers, and she was riling up the crowd in Washington, d C. And then of course
that crowd went into the Capitol Building. Now, I even said on this show, I made the comment that I guess we have a coup. I guess someone is engaged in insurrection. Now, that was for political discourse. That was to connect the dots as to how anything that happened with any Trump supporters that could be tied to Donald Trump in any way shape, ban or
reform was used. It was weaponized against him. I never I never called for I never called for Rashida Taleb to be prosecuted, to be locked away for eternity if she if that did happen, you certainly wouldn't see me celebrating as some of these jokers and losers candidly seem to celebrate at any of the misfortunes that Donald Trump may have, whether you're dealing with today, in the future, in the past, whatever, they celebrate this, I just I
can't even remotely. I am too busy, too busy living my life, too busy doing the things that I either think I need to do, want to do, trying to live, be a dad, do this show, grow this program, enjoy my family, all those sorts of things. I don't take any pleasure in someone else's misfortune that to me, I don't. It doesn't even cross my mind. It is so far from my way of
existing. And I'm guessing for many of you too. But some of these folks find their meaning, their meaning in life to watching Trump suffer in some way, shape, manner, or form. And so I made those comments to paint the picture right, to paint the picture, to illustrate right. Rush used to say, we have to illustrate the absurd with the absurd, And so of course it wasn't an insurrection. But the point in saying,
are we gonna call this an insurrection? Why isn't this an insurrection is to point out the playtant double standard, right, to illustrate that, to pound don't home the message. If you go into the Capitol Building, if you storm the Capitol Building, are you engaged in an insurrection? If there is any violence amongst the people that are in your group, are you all engaged in insurrection? Right? And so I just think that there's not enough thoughtful
thoughtfulness about this in the American public at large. There is, of course, people like you and people that pay attention and care about these things, who think about these things anyway. So Marjorie Taylor Green introduced introduced a well,
she was introducing legislative and that's not legislation, but to censure. She had put together a formal censor censure of Representative Rashida Tali because of what happened here in the past few weeks where she, you know, stirred people up, fueled the hatred, and then of course what happened to follow now. Of course, fueling all of this is how Donald Trump has been addressed and how his speech on January sixth has been portrayed, and how he's been blamed
for the actions of everybody that day who did anything wrong whatsoever. And so there's a difference between making the connection so that people understand the double standard. But Marjorie Taylor Green took it to the next step and said, let's actually do something within our legislative body to formally, you know, make a point of this. And so she introduces that this censureship, not censorships, sinsure c e n s ure of Representative Rashida Talib. It did not pass.
There were twenty three Republicans who did not vote for this, and this is upset a lot of people. I want to read something to you after the break quick time out from Representative Thomas Massey, because it's not as bad as it appears. Because on the surface it seems like, my goodness, these Republicans, these Republicans can't even can dim the actions of a radical like Rashida
Talib. But there's a lot more to it, and I just want to share that perspective because the immediate response for a lot of people is to be outraged. And look, we do have whims in Congress. I talk about that regularly. I don't think that's what's going on here. I don't. It may be the case for some, but if you listen to what Thomas Massey says, Representative from Kentucky. There's at least some context there that I think some of us can be what would be helpful for the overall conversation.
So we're gonna talk about that on the other side of the break. Sit tight, my friends, back in a minute. Welcome back, my friends. I tweeted this out. This will be in the stack of stuff too, but I tweeted this out Thursday, early Thursday, I believe, after by the way, the Texas Rangers won the World Series. I tweeted this out early Thursday morning. And this is Thomas Massey, and this is and
this is again Republican representative in Congress. He is he's a very I think, principled, well thought out conservative, and so this is he's one of the twenty three Republicans that did not vote to censure. He did not vote to censure Rashida Talib And this is what he writes January sixth protesters were not insurrectionists, nor were those led by Representative to leab. I voted to table a censure resolution of representative to leave in part because it was modeled after legislation
condemned excuse me that condemned January sixth, the j six protesters. Also, free speech means detecting even the speech you don't like. He's right on this. So he's got screenshots here of parts of the resolution that he's highlighted. One part of it says this on January sixth, Well, this is the January sixths, you know, just the resolution on what happened on January sixth.
It says, on January sixth, twenty twenty one, a mob of insurrectionists forced its way into the US Capitol building and congressional office abilities and engaged in acts of vandalism, looting, and violently attacked Capitol police officers. So he compares that with a portion of the censors, the censor resolution that was for Rashida to leave. And this is what this one reads. This is Marjorie Taylor Green's version, the one that the Republicans, the ones that the
one that republic twenty three Republicans just voted against. Well, they voted to table and it's not going to be RecA considered. So here it is.
It reads as follows, whereas Rashida t Leib led an insurrection at the United States Capital Complex on April Excuse me, August eighteenth, twenty twenty three, which put members of Congress, their staffs, and capital visitors in danger by shutting down elevators, stairwells, and points of egress while obstructing official business in both the House of Representatives and the Senate, including a Senate Foreign Affairs Committee
hearing, where As the insurrection led by Rashida to leave was organized by Jewish Voice for Peace. I'm not going to read the rest of it, but the point is they're using the term insurrection. And so Massy's point is, Look, if we're going to censure someone a member of this body, it shouldn't be for their speech. And we shouldn't be trying to dramatize this and make it into something more. Now does that mean Does that mean that what
happened when they got into the capital that that was a good thing? Does that mean that there shouldn't be other consequences? No, But to call it an insurrection is Massy's point. Massy's point is that's not what this is. Right, This isn't this can't be tit for tat you know somebody. I
mean, if if we don't all agree, if we don't all. If we're simply going to go from one side blaming the other and then the other side upping the ante, and then it just keeps going back and forth, we're never going to solve these problems, and it's going to further lead to the weaponization of the government against against other people. Rashida Tsalib, let me
say, from my vanished point, has no business being in Congress. Yeah, I mean she's elected by her representatives and that's that's who they've elected. So in that sense, she does. I'm talking about from an objective perspective that says, here's an individual who hates America as founded. Here's an individual individual who is in many ways a sympathizer and a defender of the Hamas terrorists. From my vantage point, I don't think anybody like that should should be
elected to Congress. But she's been elected. She also has free speech, and these principles need to be adhered to even when even when the other side doesn't. And this is the decision I think many Republicans are going to have to make. We need to fight back, definitely, we need for Republicans to quit being whips, definitely, but we also have to remain true to our principles even when the others don't. And I don't say that from some position of like, look how great I am. That's not how I mean
this at all. I just mean this in the best interest of solving the problems, in the best interest of having integrity. We have to we have to be able to do things with that integrity. Then it doesn't mean someone else made this. Agree with that assessment that Massy just gave out. But to think that he's just suddenly someone who's okay with people being pro Hamas, that's not the conclusion to draw because that's not his beef with the resolution to
censure Rashida to lead. So wanted to share that with you. Share your thoughts with me on that. By the way, you can do that on any of those issues. Todd at toddefshow dot com. But I gotta have to break my friends, sit tight back in just a minute. Welcome back, and my friends.

Okay, not
a lot of time here. There was something else that I wanted that I wanted to get to today, and I'm looking here just at the clock. I just I just don't have I just don't have the time, my friends. I was going to address a question from a reader, but I tell you what I will address is another question that I get asked regularly that I just go ahead and tell you, because I'm gonna say it here in a
minute, say it. At the end of this program. One of the most common questions I get is what do What does S d G mean? SDG? The letter S as in Sam, the letter D is in dog, the letter G is in Gary SDG. I end every program by saying that, and the reason I do that, the reason I do this.
I read some time ago that there was a composer. Bach was the composer, and when he would finish writing his music, Johan Sebastian Bach in the margins, he would write S d G, which meant which was abbreviated for solely deo gloria, which means to God be the Glory, and it was his way of saying, I did my best. This is what I could come up with, you know, to God be the Glory for what the
music that he helped me create is. And so in a sense, it's a stamp saying at the end of the program for me that I've done everything I can to God be the Glory, and that is something that is important to me as as a follower of Jesus, and I just want you to know what that means. And I've been asked that on a regular basis.
I'm happy to share it. There's a whole bunch of you know, we can get into some details on that, but suffice it to say that that is the short answer for a question that I get on a semi regular basis. So timeout is in order of my friends, Sit tight, be back in a minute. Welcome back to my friends. I wrote a little bit of something on Twitter about this Wednesday, late Wednesday night. I just want
to say this here at the end of the week. I don't have a lot of time, but I was raised to be an Indiana University basketball fan. I was my mom and dad were big IU fans, especially my dad, although as they've gotten older, I think Mom might be a bigger fan. My grandparents were almost seemed to be a requirement in the part of the state that I grew up in as a kid, not too far from Bloomington, I don't know, maybe forty minutes or so to the north of Bloomington,
which is of course home to Indiana University. But Bobby Knight passed away Wednesday evening and just reminded me of all the times watching that program that he built as a kid, so just wanted to share that as well. Folks, I've got to go. Thanks for listening. SDG.
