48. Woke Culture and the Fight for Liberty

Written By Pete Range

Episode Description

In this episode Pete begins with a story on Pope Francis meeting with the Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi and why it matters. He discusses how the Holy Father should take the opportunity to challenge leaders who stand against the foundational issue of life, like Pelosi, who supports abortion through all 9 months of pregnancy. Pete goes on to highlight the NFL’s apparent hypocrisy when it comes to disciplining bad behavior after they remove coach Jon Gruden from the Ring of Honor for insensitive comments made in an email 10 years prior. Meanwhile, NFL players who have been charged with violence against women maintain their positions of honor. SouthWest Airlines cancels over 1,000 flights in one weekend due to a rumored employee protest of the vaccine mandates, Superman is now super gay, and a VA school board covers up the sexual assualt of a 9th grade girl by a “gender-fluid” boy in the girl’s bathroom. Pete ends with an inspirational speech by Founding Father, Patrick Henry. We must all be vigilent, active and brave! Let us fall to our knees in prayer and not hesitate to go to action for the libertyof ALL in our great nation! All of this and more in today’s episode!
