Attention. You're listening to the Tod Huff Radio Show, America's home for conservative not bitter talk radio. Be advised. The content of this program has been documented to prevent and even cure liberalism, and listening may cause you to lean to the rights. Here's your conservative but not bitter host, Todd Huff. Well, my friends, fear not, because Biden is considering a trip to

Israel. This problem will be solved, of course immediately, if not simply by his presence, definitely by his rhetoric, by his moving about on stages at speeches like a roomba vacuum. By the way, I heard a comedian say that I don't have his name, but it was actually a pretty funny bit. Greetings, and welcome to today's program. I am your host, Todd Huff. Email, as you know, Todd at Toddhufshow dot com, or you can text us three one seven two one zero twenty eight thirty message

in data rates may apply. It's a pleasure to be here today. So we've got President by Bribery considering a trip to Israel. This was on the heels of President Bribery warning Israel against occupying Gaza. You know, it's crazy to think about It's crazy to think about that in the midst of what's happening and where we are, right where we are in the timeline of things that President Bribery would be concerned about, quote unquote occupying Gaza. Friends, this

is you know, on yesterday's stack of stuff. And maybe I get into that and talk about that. But Karine Jean Pierre, Karine Jean Pierre was asked by a reporter at a press conference late last week. She was asked if what she thought about really the divisions within the Democrat Party regarding Israel, and she said, I'm not aware of any divisions. She must not be aware of AOC of Elon Omar, of Rashida Talib, these radically radically anti

Israel members of Congress in the Democrat caucus. But I presume that Biden got the message over the weekend, which is why he suddenly is warning Israel against occupying Gaza. It's just it's lunacy to me. It would be like if you're on the Titanic and the Titanic is sinking and you're trying to solve the problem at hand. Right, You're trying to solve the problem of getting people off the ship, making every making sure everyone, if possible, can be

saved. How do I deal with this catastrophe? Is there anything that we can do? Of course, trying to go through a series of you know, checkpoints, and of course that problem was much more massive than anyone could fix. But there is a process, or there should have been a process of determining what to do. You don't start talking in the midst of all of this. You don't start talking about where you're going to park the ship in the harbor when you get it, you know, assuming you fix the

problem and you get it back to the United States. Israel being in Gaza is not the problem here. And I understand what they're also getting at, which they don't want to give any reason or rationale for a more substantial, broader problem in the Middle East. But the problem is, my friends, Israel. Israel's existence does that. Israel's existence alone does that for people who hate Israel. And that's what we're dealing with. By the way, I

saw someone post something. I don't talk about stuff like this very much because normally I think the things people post are stupid, but I actually thought this is something I really find interesting. And it's a good point. The vast majority of the land that was known as the Palestine Territory or whatever the official name was under the British Empire, the vast majority of that land was in Jordan. So why is this problem between Palestinians claiming to be uprooted from their

land coming only in the nation of Israel. Why is it not coming from the people in Jordan that the Palestinians and Jordan Israel. Israel gives the Palestinians much more in the way of rights than the Jordanians do with the Palestinians. Suddenly, the more you begin to look at this appears appears quite obvious that the main problem here is not really at its core Palestinians and land. It is a well, a desire for the destruction, the annihilation, the obliteration

of the Jewish state. And so Israel occupying Gaza is not the problem. The problem is Hamas. The problem are those radical Islamic extremists and terrorists who seek for not well, they don't seek a peaceful resolution, they seek the annihilation of Israel. So Bribery, President Bribery is out there telling Israel not to occupy, not to occupy Gaza. They haven't even gone in yet, and he's saying, don't occupy it. I just it's just crazy talk to

me. But you know, all this stuff has got me thinking. I just you know, I've said in the past, there's either people who are radical fringe extremists, who have beliefs that are not rooted in truth or goodness. They their moral compass is completely either turned off or has been calibrated to be the antithesis of where the moral compass should point. So there's either a morally debates group of people that are in this anti Israel group. There's misinformed

people, or they're uninformed people. Some people just don't know anything, some people have been told the wrong thing. And so but I think beneath all of this is something that I want to take a moment to go through here quickly, this segment, and it's this concept of the god given right to self defense. We have a god given right to protect ourselves. And this, of course can be seen in our nation's adopting I guess of the Second

Amendment to the US Constitution found in the Bill of Rights. We have the right to keep and bear arms, and those arms, those weapons are to be used. It can be used in a variety of ways. Of course, hunting and you know, shooting for sport. That's fine, but that's not the real reason they're there. The core reason they're there is for the

defense of the people. The defense of the people against any threat, and that can be someone who's an individual threat, as a someone who's trying to personally inflict harm upon one's family, or a group of terrorist thugs, or a nation that goes that infringes upon the rights of the individual. Those weapons

are to be used in defensive purposes. They're to be used defensively, and we have a god given right for this, and the same is true for the people of Israel, and so their right to defend their mere existence is a fundamental human right. You know, there are all sorts of things that we are told are human rights that are not human rights. Some of these things might be things that are good to have. Some of these things might be things that we should shoot for as a society, as a nation.

Some of them are well confused people that are confused about what a real right is and so forth. But a right is something that we are born with, that we have intrinsically that has been given to us by our creator. We're individuals. We can think what we like, we can set our priorities on what we prefer. We can have different thoughts and opinions, and we have the right to vocalize and to communicate those We have the rights to assemble

with people, gather with people that we choose to gather with. We have a right to petition our government to tell them, hey, government, we're not happy with how you are treating us. We have a problem with this. We have a right to express ourselves. We are citizens and are not subjects. We are free people with liberty. The rights of the minority are

protected. These individual rights are protected. And by the way, the smallest minority that can possibly exist is the minority of the end of and so even if ninety nine point ninety nine to nine percent of America says that some individual through democracy cannot do something, our respect for God given rights says that they

absolutely can. No matter how many people come to say that this person or this group of people does not have a right to whatever, to free speech, to the freedom of religion, to the freedom of assembly, to the right to keep and bear arms, what have you? Those things cannot be taken away legally. Those things don't come from the government. Those come from Almighty God. And so Israel is in that boat. Israel has tried, as I said before, on five occasions, to give up land in exchange

for peace. Now you can have a variety of opinions on that. I'm not even here to talk about that. I'm simply stating that since Israel came into existence in nineteen forty eight as a nation, as the Jewish state, they have tried on five occasions to give up land, to agree to a

partitioning of that land in exchange for peace. Each and every time, each and every time, they were met by opposition in the form of either war, which happened a couple of times, or a intafada, a launch of terrorists attacking people in Israel, suicide bombers and so forth, homicide bombers. And this is what's been happening every single time. Every single time, the Palestinian authorities rejected the calls for well, the offer of land for peace.

And it's because, my friends, they want the annihilation of the state of Israel. I have said this repeatedly. There is no ambiguity here. There is no, I understand the other side on its face when one side now, I'm not saying I'm talking about those that are making the decisions. There absolutely are individual Palestinians, I'm certain that are willing to try to find a way to coexist, but the people who are leading the group, the Palestinians,

have no interest in doing that. Their starting point, remember the governing officials of Gaza, the elected officials is well, are Hamas. That's who they elected. And as such, you go to the Hamas Charter. You know, if you want to know about Hamas, go and read their founding document. Right, if you want to know about what America is supposed to be, go and read our founding documents, Read the Declaration of Independence,

read the Constitution, read those things. Understand American history. Likewise, if you want to understand who is leading the Palestinians today, look at the founding Charter of Hamas, and they make it absolutely clear. There is no equivocation, there is no any ambiguity. They seek the utter destruction of the Jewish state, and Israel as such has a right to defend herself against such evil. This is absolutely and unequivocally a fact of life and you have to.

We have to respect and allow Israel to defend herself. Israel cannot be cannot be constantly distracted with well, you know, you hit back a little bit too hard there. You shouldn't have done this, You should have taken it on the chin one more time. Right, And this is, by the

way, We're not gonna take a break. But this is by the way where a lot of people will start to use one's religion to say, well, as a as a as a Christian, I know we're talking about the Jewish state, but as a believer in the Biblical God, the Bible, the New Testament says to turn the other cheek and that sort of thing. Again, I'm not saying it applies to the Jewish people here with how they understand the Old Testament and Jesus and all of that. I don't want to

get into that. But the point is some people will say, well, you shouldn't even defend yourself. And you know what, my friends, that may be the case. An individual Christian can decide to forego his right her right to self defense. But that's an individual decision. That's not a decision that should be thrust upon it or the individual or the nation in this case, by the international community, by President, and bribery by any other group

of people, the United Nations, whoever else. They shouldn't decide that you cannot defend yourself, that you cannot take appropriate actions to make sure that things that have been happening there for many many years, things that have happened have been happening there for many many years. You have the right to defend yourself and to prevent them from happening again. And that is what this invasion is

absolutely about. Timeouts in order, though plenty of more to get to today, my friends, including some soundbites from Biden's interview with Scott Pelley over the weekend on sixty minutes. But i've you, I don't take a break. Sit tight, my friends. You are listening here to conservative not bitter talk.

By the way, listening to this program may cause you to lean to the right, so exercise extreme caution when driving a vehicle, operating heavy machinery, or even walking down the hallway with a cup of coffee preferably in your tot have show mug. Just exercise caution, my friends. You will be leading to the right back in just a minute. Welcome back my friends. So a lot of stuff going on out there. We've got, of course, what's happening in Israel, We've got the you know, and talking about

this. By the way, I'm reminded, and I don't know if I've shared this on here before. I remember this has been a long time ago, and I've not I've not been able to find this online, but I remember having a story relayed to me, I want to say, when I was in college. And I don't know if I read this somewhere, if I was told this story, But regardless, I'm gonna share this because the the pace at which these things can sometimes be thrust upon people is remarkable.

And now, in one sense, obviously, as we've gone through here before, the Israeli Palestinian tensions and conflict go back eons, I mean in one In one way you can look at this is something that can be traced back thousands of years to the father of the faith, Abraham and his son Isaac as the Jews tell you, or his son Ishmael as the Muslims will tell you. And this goes back. I mean, this can be traced back thousands of years Abraham being called to the promised land by God then being called

to take his one and only son up Mount Mariah to sacrifice him. In the story that well, that particular story, there's so much involved just with that, right, I mean again with Ishmael and Isaac. And there's the religious tension that comes from that, right if for the Jews they say it was Isaac, for Muslims they say it was Ishmael, And then of course there's disagreement as to you know, who has control of the Jewish city, Jerusalem, the capital city, and so forth. It just runs deep.

But in another sense, in another sense, the speed at which like just take here for an example. Now, there have been people that have been saying things like free Palestine for some time. Of course, there have been people who have been saying that Gaza is the largest open air prison in the world, which is crazy considering that if you're not someone engaged in terrorism, Israel allows you to cross the border. Good luck trying to do that from

a prison. Just leave whenever you want with the passport. But anyway, this is how this game is played, and of course the radicals have been doing this for some time, propaganda, misinformation, keeping people in the dark, giving them half truth sometimes giving them completely made up bogus bunk. So. But for a lot of people in places outside of Israel, outside of having direct connections to the Palestinian people or the Jewish State of Israel, a

lot of people didn't have strong feelings on this. But in the blink of an eye, in the blink of an eye, this changes, right, this changes. And of course we've got people protesting, and I don't look. They've got the right to protest. They've got the right to say that the conflict is due to Israeli oppression. I just vehemently disagree with that. Every fact shows that that's not the case. But they have the right to protest, they have the right to their opinions and all of these things.

But the speed at which this can get to a fevered pitch is remarkable, and it reminds me of a story. Same thing with COVID, right, I mean, these things, these things seemingly come out of no whae, But yet they don't come out of nowhere. They're rooted in something else.

COVID, for example, was rooted in the belief, the deeply held belief by the bureaucratic state, by elected officials, that they were ultimately your boss, that they were ultimately there to do well, to implement whatever they thought was appropriate, and in cases of health emergencies and so forth, they could completely disregard anything, any law, any will of the people, any economic concerns, and simply lockdown people, shut down businesses, forced them to get

vaccinated, or apply very heavy pressure at least for them to do that. But the starting point is the belief that hey, as an elected official, hey, as someone who is interested in being in the bureaucratic state, we

can rule over the people. That of course, is not the way this nation was founded, but nonetheless it can quickly ramp up to the point to where we can see that the people who are making the decisions believe that they have the right to rule us, and those of us who believe in liberty, who don't have any power in government, are suddenly suddenly without a lot of recourse. Kind of the same thing in a sense here. And it reminds me of the story. I'm going to relay it quickly. There's a

story of that happened back in World War Two. There was a city, a town, a little village actually that and I don't know if it was in Austria. It was in one of the places that Hitler invaded whenever he decided that he was going to be taking over Europe, and of course he

had plans to take over a lot more than that. So but when he invaded this particular country, there was a village in the country, and the village had existed for a long time, and it had both Jewish and non Jewish residents, and they had been peacefully coexisting for a long long time. And once Hitler invaded, once the Nazis took over this nation. Now that they didn't directly roll into this little village at first. Eventually, of course,

they just mowed through the countryside with their blitzkrieg and so forth. But anyhow, they were peacefully coexisting one moment, and then the moment that the Nazis took over. I believe it was Austria. I could be wrong on that it was one of the countries that Hitler invaded. As soon as they realized this, the non Jewish people in the town began immediately persecuting and attacking, burning down property, acts of violence against the Jewish people that lived in

that town. It's remarkable how quickly, how quickly something can happen, especially especially when there's no solid and firm foundation, meaning if people are just getting along because that's just what we've always done, instead of instead of we get along because we respect each other, even though we have different religious beliefs,

we can still coexist. If there's not that foundation, and you wake up one day without a moral compass, without a moral guide, and you see that the Nazis have rolled in. Suddenly you're your country is now part of the Nazi regime where you're supposed to hate these people that are Jewish in that case, and it's remarkable how quickly people flip the switch. And I see that today. I see that today. The speed at which this stuff can

happen is absolutely and utterly incredible. So timeouts in order. I want to talk a little bit. A couple other stories I want to get to, including something that Biden wants to give away to migrants in this country, and I just want to talk through just well, I want to talk through that, and I want to tie it into the battle for Speaker of the House. So we'll do that in due course. My friends, sit tight,

be back here in just a minute. Welcome back to my friends. You know, I mentioned earlier that I had a SoundBite that I wanted to play from Biden. I forgot as we were going to break to well that we were going to do that. So Biden was interviewed by Scott Pelley of sixty Minutes over the weekend, and of course, you know how this stuff goes.

I mean, it's just it's embarrassing in every conceivable way. And again, as I think about these things, remember the media, the Democrats, Biden, they all painted this picture that said Trump was going to destroy our economy, Trump was going to cause World War three. And then look, I mean, it's not funny. It's just I cannot I cannot understand why someone cannot see this, cannot see that the things that we were told that

Trump was going to do. I cannot understand how we suddenly have these problems and no one either really connects the dots I'm talking. I'm talking about the people who are dyed in the wall, convicted, blinded to reality, radical leftist voters. They don't I don't understand. I understand the connection ideology. I understand the commitment and the desire to not admit when one is wrong. I understand those sorts of things. But it still doesn't account for this to

me, because these folks were stirred into a frenzy. They were they were told to be terrified of President Trump. President Trump was going to cause World War three and President Trump was going to destroy the economy and everything else. But yet look at what is actually unfolding and happening before our very eyes. They don't want to blame Biden for this, And of course this this interview, this interview was something that wasn't It wasn't a hard hitting interview. It

wasn't anything that was honestly a fairly conducted interview. It was just like anything else, a series of softball questions, an opportunity for Biden to talk about how much he loves Israel and how he took his family there and all this kind of stuff. I mean, it's silly, silly, predictable stuff. And again, this isn't the stack of stuff that you can go to and take a look at yourself. Taught of show dot com stack of stuff.

This article is from NewsBusters. So I want to play this clip so you and I know, people with critical thinking knows that these problems have been brought on by leadership or the lack thereof. This problem has not been created by the House of Representatives or the fight over who the speaker is going to be in the House of Representatives. It's silly and disingenuous to suggest as much.

But Biden, when he was asked by Scott Pelley about this, given this softball question of someone to blame the dysfunction in the House of Representatives, is actually making it more dangerous in the world. That's right, my friends. It's not the current commander in chief. It's not the one who refuses to follow the law and secure our borders. American weakness. As I've said on here time and time and time again, American weakness is what truly provokes our

enemies. American weakness is provocative. You look at the things that are happening now that did not happen when President Trump was president. That's not a coincident. There are no coincidences at levels like this. But I want you to

listen to this. This is a pathetic attempt by Scott Pelley, who again should be viewed as kind of a coach here to kind of coax out of Biden a coherent sentence or two that makes it look like the Republicans are responsible for what's going on in Israel and Ukraine and every other part of the world, while Biden is just this innocent bystander, probably only worried about making cushi deals for a son hunter. But here we go. I want you to

listen to this exchange between Scott Pelley and Joe Biden. The President is asking for billions of dollars for Israel and Ukraine, but Congress is paralyzed. Hard right Republicans are obstructing the election of a Speaker of the House. Does the dysfunction that we've seen in Congress increase the danger in the world? Yes?

Yeah, us. This is not your father's Republican Party. Thirty percent of it is made up with these Maca Republicans who maybe democracy is something I don't They don't look at it the same way you and I look at democracy. Okay, there you go. So it's the Republican's fault, it's Maga Republican's fault. Forget the reality, Forget the truth that none of this happened when the leader of the MAGA movement was in the White House. Forget that that

doesn't matter. It's just a detail. They don't have any any concern for that whatsoever. It's just someone to blame here, and so apparently apparently this is all Congress's fault, Matt Gates's fault. I just it is remarkable they blame either Trump for things he did years ago or didn't do. They take no responsibility. This happened Biden, excuse me when Obama was president as well.

Obama. I remember in his re election campaign exit polling, the people in the exit polls still were blaming Bush, who left office in January of two thousand and nine. Election of twenty twelve, almost four years later, they were still voters were still blaming Bush for the problems we had in our nation, which of course there were many. Because this is what happens when we and effective leaders take positions who have radical ideologies, ideologies that are built

upon the sinking sand. They blame anyone, They blame anyone but themselves. Their full time job is to seek someone to blame, is to not take responsibility for anything, is to seek some sort of create some sort of a optic, some sort of a look, create some sort of a alternative universe that they can say this is reality, look at it. It's wonderful. It's great. But in reality, of course, those of us who live it, we can remember what it was like before this current administration took control

of this country. We can remember what it was like when there wasn't complete dumpster fire everywhere we looked, from inflation to open borders, to Ukraine to Israel to China, and I'm just scratching the surface. So much more assault on free speech, election, integrity, you name it. Anyway, timeouts in order, my friends, quick time out. You're listening to conservative not better talk. I am your host, Tad Huff Back in just a minute,

Welcome back to my friend here. We are moving quickly through the fourth quarter, that time of year where you might want to take a look at your health coverage. In fact, it's the open enrollment time. It's a good time for some. It's the only time that really changes can be really

made. So if you are looking at reviewing your health insurance options. And again, I saw an article a couple of weeks ago that I believe showed that health insurance premiums were going to increase the most that they have increased. I mean, surprise, surprise, right, thank you. Economy run by radical leftists. But five I think it was five to eight percent is what they expect healthcare. Health insurance premiums to go up. I think that's what

I read in twenty twenty four. So you might want to be looking for your best options if you are in the market for that, it makes sense encourage you to reach out to Eric Wilson icel Health. Eric is a friend of mine, a supporter of this program for for many years now. He is a expert in the Affordable Care Act. He's not necessarily proud of that, but he knows a lot about it because this is his world. He has to know how to help people navigate and figure out how to best solve

their health insurance needs. And so even though even though he you know, is a free market kind of guy believes in letting the market solve problems, he has to know how to deal with the Affordable Care Act. He's very

adept at doing that. He specializes an individual and group health and you can reach out to Eric for a free, no cost consultation his phone number eight one five three seven two one three six three eight one five three seven two thirteen sixty three, or visit him at eye sell Health dot com so I mentioned alluded to a couple of other things in the news that I wanted to get to. One of those. One of those is well a couple of

election related things. First, there is a Senator from the state of Ohio named Sharad Brown who is a Democrat that recent polling showed that he may be very vulnerable in twenty twenty four. There is a chance Republicans could gain control of the Senate. There are some vulnerable Democrat seats on the ballot this year. And of course the Senate is razor thin. It's fifty one forty nine right now, and it can it can flip. It can certainly flip,

or it can stay in Democrats control. Or it could be a fifty to fifty split, which of course would mean it's even more important to have a Republican president because they would have the tie breaking vote in that Senate. So keep an eye on that on that particular race. I mentioned also earlier that Biden wants to give illegal aliens some benefits. I listen to this now.

Remember I wanted to wait to say this after that clip we played last segment, because Biden wants it to sound like Scott Pelley the pr firm for Joseph Robinette Biden's administration. They want you to believe, they want all of us to believe that Biden is helpless because Republicans can't find a speaker of the House. That's what they want. But meanwhile, meanwhile, we've got this headline, Biden wants to give record five point seven million migrants free medical and housing.

I'm just going to read a couple of sentences here. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. That's ICE is currently overseeing a record number of five point seven million non detained migrants in the US, according to paperwork detailing ICE's release and Reporting Management program. The Biden government's plan is to provide these migrants with free medical services, food, and housing, with private companies joining ICE and monitoring migrants

through ankle monitors, phone apps, and in person check ins. Now, just listen to this thing about that. I mean, a phone app implies a phone. What happens if they don't have a phone. I'm guessing we're going to provide that ankle monitors. That's going to cost some money, which I'm not saying. Look, I'm not saying that none of this should be involved. I'm just saying now we're going to be giving them apparently free medical

care, food, and housing. An inflation, which is something we've been battling since Biden took office, is the direct result of out of control government spending. It is a non stop bris. There's nothing, well, there's virtually nothing that this administration would not be willing to spend money on. Nothing. There's no limit budgets or irrelevant. They'll just create more money. And what does that mean? It creates more burden on you, the taxpayer who's

trying to make ends meet. Quick time out, my friends, back in a minute. Welcome back, my friends. Not a lot of time remaining here. In fact, consider yourselves fortunates. I know we have listeners all all around the world. Actually most of you are based here in the United States. Consider yourselves fortunate for not having to live in Well Britain. Right now, the UK Labor Party is wanting to make it a crime to misgender

someone and they want that crime to carry a two year sentence. So this, of course madness will come here as well, but right now it is of course working its way through the Labor Party in Great Britain, United Kingdom of Folks. I've got to go, Craziness abounds, See you tomorrow, SDG
