    Ep 969 | Democrats’ Plan to Replace Biden as the Nominee | Guest: Kristan Hawkins

    enMarch 18, 2024

    Podcast Summary

    • Possible Changes in Democratic Nominee for 2024Speculations suggest Joe Biden might not be the Democratic nominee in 2024, with potential replacements like Gavin Newsom being discussed. However, these are just speculations and the Democratic Party's rules for filling vacancies are in place.

      The Democratic nomination for the 2024 presidential election may not be a foregone conclusion for Joe Biden. There are speculations that he might not be the party's nominee, and some possibilities being discussed include his potential resignation after the convention, allowing the Democratic Party to choose a new nominee. Another name being floated around is California Governor Gavin Newsom, who is making moves to promote abortion rights nationwide and has been considered as a potential replacement. However, it's important to note that these are speculations and nothing has been confirmed yet. The Democratic National Committee has rules in place to fill vacancies in the event of a nominee's death, disability, or resignation. The likelihood of these scenarios unfolding is uncertain, but the Democratic Party's plans for winning in November and their potential nominee choices are subjects of ongoing discussions.

    • Possible Democratic Leadership ChangeGovernors Newsom, Whitmer, and Pritzker are potential contenders for the Democratic nomination during their convention. Under Democratic rules, delegates are not bound to vote for their pledged candidate, allowing for a new nominee if Biden loses, resigns, or isn't supported.

      The Democratic Party may be considering a change in leadership, possibly during their convention this summer. Gavin Newsom, along with other governors like Gretchen Whitmer and JB Pritzker, are seen as potential contenders for the role. Under Democratic Party rules, delegates are not bound to vote for the candidate they were pledged to, opening up the possibility for a new nominee. This could happen if Biden loses the primary, delegates don't support him at the convention, or if he resigns and Harris takes over. With both Trump and Biden facing challenges to their ability to run for re-election, the upcoming election is predicted to be unpredictable.

    • US Senate races crucial for pro-life advocatesPro-life groups focus on winning Senate races, ensuring solid pro-life legislators, and replacing hesitant Republicans with strong pro-life champions.

      The US Senate races are of great importance for pro-life advocates due to the Democrats' goal of reshaping the judiciary and staffing the Supreme Court. Pro-life groups are focusing on winning Senate races and ensuring solid pro-life champions at the state legislative level. Some Republican politicians have been found to be hesitant on the abortion issue and lack a strong stance against Planned Parenthood, leading to a need for replacement with 100% solid pro-life legislators. The overturning of Roe v Wade has made the abortion issue more polarized, causing some Republicans to be more cautious about taking a strong stance on the issue. Pro-life groups are engaging in the primary process and actively replacing politicians who have pledged to be pro-life but haven't acted accordingly.

    • Pro-life movement: Beyond party politicsThe pro-life movement transcends party politics, focusing on Christian and American values, with current leaders prioritizing life over party labels.

      The pro-life movement is not just about being politically aligned with a particular party, but rather being rooted in Christian and American values first. The speaker, who works with Students For Life Action, shared her experience of engaging with Republican leaders to hold them accountable for their pro-life promises. She emphasized that the current generation of pro-life leaders prioritizes being pro-life above party labels. The conversation also touched upon the abortion positions of current political figures like Trump, Biden, and RFK, and the speaker expressed uncertainty about Trump's stance on the issue. The speaker also shared her stance on a potential federal abortion ban, stating that she would negotiate a compromise if presented with the issue. Overall, the conversation highlighted the importance of staying true to core values and working towards finding common ground in contentious issues.

    • Europe's compromise on abortion leads to perceived resolutionEurope's approach to abortion legislation may not be a viable solution for the US, as deeply held beliefs on both sides make compromise unlikely. Focus on long-term strategies and saving lives is key.

      Achieving peace on the abortion issue in the United States is unlikely, as the pro-life and pro-choice movements hold deeply entrenched beliefs. The speaker argues that compromises on abortion legislation in Europe have led to the issue being perceived as settled there, making it difficult for pro-lifers to continue advocating for an end to abortion. Instead, the speaker emphasizes the importance of long-term strategies and focusing on saving as many lives as possible, rather than presenting a consensus solution that may not address the root of the issue. The speaker also highlights some of the concerns surrounding chemical abortion pills, such as their risks to women's health and the environment. Overall, the speaker urges caution and a focus on the long-term success of the pro-life movement.

    • Impactful Changes: Criminal Justice Reform and Pro-Life SupportPresident Trump can influence change through issues like criminal justice reform and supporting pro-life organizations, while everyday choices like buying from companies that donate to pro-life causes can make a difference.

      President Trump could make a significant impact on issues he can influence as the head of the executive branch, rather than focusing on divisive topics like abortion where progress may be limited. During an interview, he could have turned the conversation towards issues like criminal justice reform or supporting pro-life organizations and centers, which save lives and move the cultural narrative. The pro-life movement is concerned about various elections, and volunteers are crucial to passing laws that save lives. Companies like 7 Weeks Coffee, which donates a portion of sales to pro-life organizations, offer an opportunity to make a difference through everyday choices. Ultimately, regardless of Trump's stance on specific pro-life policies, it's essential for pro-life voters to consider his overall record and align their votes with candidates who share their values.

    • RFK's campaign manager's stance contradicted his on abortionConsidering who a candidate surrounds themselves with can impact policy decisions, especially on contentious issues like abortion. RFK's inconsistent stance raises questions about potential appointees.

      The people a presidential candidate surrounds themselves with can greatly impact policy decisions, particularly on contentious issues like abortion. During a discussion, it was mentioned that RFK's stance on abortion restrictions contradicted his campaign manager's statement. This inconsistency raises questions about RFK's true position and who he would appoint to key roles in his administration, such as the Department of Health and Human Services and the Supreme Court. The individual expressing this viewpoint emphasized the importance of considering personnel policy when making a presidential vote, as the people in power can significantly influence policy outcomes. The Trump administration's struggles with understanding DC's inner workings and appointing suitable personnel served as a cautionary tale in this regard. Ultimately, the identity and beliefs of those in a candidate's orbit can be a deciding factor in determining their potential impact on issues that matter most to voters.

    • Kennedy's stance on abortion: A woman's right until the ninth monthDespite personal beliefs, Kennedy supports abortion rights until late pregnancy. Consider actions, not just words, when voting on this issue.

      Kennedy's stance on abortion seems to be that it is a woman's right up until the ninth month of pregnancy, regardless of his personal beliefs. This is concerning for those who value the right to life for unborn children. However, it's important to consider the people Kennedy surrounds himself with and the policies they may enact. For instance, during Trump's presidency, despite some misstatements, his actions, such as appointing pro-life judges and leaders, spoke louder than his words. In contrast, the Biden administration has openly promoted abortion and even visited a mega Planned Parenthood facility. Ultimately, making a strategic vote based on actions rather than words may be the best option for those who prioritize the right to life.

    • Exploring the nuances of abortion and reproductive rightsMisunderstandings on both sides of the abortion debate call for education and understanding, as shown by the speaker's experiment on changing minds on IVF among pro-lifers.

      The complex issue of abortion and reproductive rights involves nuanced perspectives and misunderstandings on both sides. The speaker highlighted the case of Kate Cox, who crossed state lines to abort a child with trisomy 18, which some view as a form of eugenics. However, the speaker argues that the pro-life stance is often misunderstood, as shown by the common support for in vitro fertilization (IVF) despite the elimination of embryos with genetic disorders. The speaker conducted an online experiment to change minds on IVF among pro-lifers and found a high conversion rate, suggesting a lack of awareness about the practices in IVF clinics. The speaker criticized Republican leaders for their responses to the Alabama Supreme Court ruling on abortion, arguing that they may not fully understand the implications of their statements. Overall, the discussion underscores the importance of education and understanding on both sides of the abortion debate.

    • Protecting Savings with Birch Gold: A ConsiderationConsidering converting retirement accounts into precious metals through Birch Gold is a way to protect savings in uncertain financial times.

      It's important to protect one's savings, particularly in uncertain financial times. One way to do this is by considering converting retirement accounts into precious metals through Birch Gold. This topic, along with the ethical implications of IVF and surrogacy, are complex issues that require thoughtful and compassionate dialogue. As a pro-life leader, it's crucial to speak truthfully and with compassion, even if it's not the politically convenient thing to do. The unpredictability of the world, including political and financial spheres, underscores the importance of being prepared and making informed decisions. It's essential to have open and reasonable conversations, rather than ignoring or declining them, even when they address controversial topics.

    • Young Pro-Life Activists Bravely Leading the Conversation on AbortionCourageous young pro-lifers, some conceived via IVF, change minds on abortion through difficult conversations and persistence. They work with Republicans and face criticism, but their impact is felt and legislators take notice.

      The current generation of young pro-life activists, despite facing opposition and adversity, are courageously leading the conversation on abortion and changing minds. These students, some of whom were conceived using IVF, continue to engage in difficult conversations and persistently work with Republicans to make good on their promises. Their bravery and faithfulness to their mission, despite facing discrimination and criticism, is making a significant impact. It's important to support organizations like Students For Life through donations, as they rely on this support to continue their important work and make a difference in people's lives. The impact of these young activists is being felt, with legislators taking notice of their truthful and fearless advocacy.

    Ep 1025 | Chrissy Teigen Cries Tears of Joy Over Abortion
    Today, we discuss Chrissy Teigen and Kamala Harris' recent comments on abortion. A few years ago, Teigen announced she had a miscarriage. After the reversal of Roe vs. Wade, she announced this miscarriage was actually an abortion, causing confusion. The Biden/Harris campaign also recently put out an ad that features a woman who claims she was denied miscarriage treatment due to the Dobbs decision. Is this true? What is the difference between a miscarriage and an abortion, and why do abortion activists often conflate the two? And what actually happens during an abortion?

    Ep 1023 | Pride Pullback: Are Companies Backing Down?
    Today, we discuss some good news: less "Pride" merchandise in stores this year. We examine some of the reasons for this development, including the impact of conservative boycotts. Is Christianity really more "intolerant" than progressivism? Are Christians actually imposing their beliefs on others? Or do they just want neutral spaces?

    Ep 1022 | Robert Morris Resigns, Potheads vs. Karens
    Today, we discuss the resignation of Pastor Robert Morris in light of his past sexual assault of a 12-year-old girl. Does forgiveness require restoration to previous positions of power? And does worldly success indicate someone is pleasing to God? On a lighter note, we discuss how horrible marijuana is, particularly its devastating effects on teenagers. Are there any good reasons to legalize weed? Is marijuana possession actually a criminal justice issue, or is this a myth?

    Ep 1021 | #SBCToo? Another Accused Megachurch Pastor
    Today, we discuss the recent confession of "inappropriate sexual behavior with a young lady" from Pastor Robert Morris of Gateway Church. The alleged victim, Cindy Clemishire, claims the abuse began when she was just 12 years old and Morris was 21 and lasted for more than four years. What does this mean for Christians, particularly in light of Pastor Tony Evans' recent resignation over sin? Are all Christians qualified to be teachers? And how can victims of abuse find solace in Scripture? Plus, the Southern Baptist Church recently voted on an amendment concerning female pastors. We discuss the outcome and what this means for the SBC.

    Today, we sit down with Soren Aldaco, a 21-year-old woman and detransitioner who is suing her former doctors for a botched mastectomy and other medical malpractices. Soren began identifying as transgender at just 11 years old, began hormone replacement therapy at 17, and had a double mastectomy at 19. Soren was prescribed all these treatments despite numerous mental health conditions and traumatic life experiences. How did this happen?

    Ep 1019 | The Christian ‘Ashley Madison’ Couple Speaks Out | Guests: Sam & Nia Rader
    Today, we sit down with family vloggers Sam and Nia Rader. Back in 2015, this Christian couple's world was turned upside down during a data breach of the infidelity website "Ashley Madison." Because of this breach, names of people who had signed up for the site, seeking to have an affair, became public. Sam's name was included in the leak. The couple then faced an uphill battle as they struggled to heal their marriage, sought true repentance, and dealt with the publicity of their marital struggles. They recently told their story again to Netflix in the streaming company's documentary on the data leak. We ask them to delve into their story and share what they believe Netflix got wrong.

    Ep 1018 | Former IVF Doctor Blows the Whistle | Guest: Dr. Lauren Rubal

    Ep 1018 | Former IVF Doctor Blows the Whistle | Guest: Dr. Lauren Rubal
    Today, we sit down with Dr. Lauren Rubal, a Reproductive Endocrinology & Infertility physician who focuses on fertility, recurrent miscarriage, painful, irregular, or heavy cycles, and menopause through an integrative lens. Instead of taking a bandaid, one-size-fits-all approach, Dr. Rubal views each patient as an entire person - body, mind, and soul - and works to address the root cause of reproductive disorders. But she wasn't always in this field. Dr. Rubal started her career in conventional medicine, and even practiced IVF. What prompted her to leave and start her own practice? How does Integrative Medicine differ from a more typical medical approach? What's so bad about IVF? Is there any such thing as "ethical" IVF? And why is hormonal birth control an ineffective treatment? We address all that and more.

    A Republican Pollster on Trump’s Undimmed Appeal

    A Republican Pollster on Trump’s Undimmed Appeal

    The fact that Donald Trump is the front-runner for the G.O.P. nomination in 2024 has created a chasm in our politics. In the past, Democrats and Republicans at least understood why members of the other party liked their chosen candidates. Most conservatives weren’t confused why liberals liked Barack Obama, and vice versa for George W. Bush. But for a lot of Democrats, it feels impossible to imagine why anyone would cast a vote for Trump. And as a result, the two parties don’t just feel hostile toward each other; they feel increasingly unknowable.

    Kristen Soltis Anderson is a veteran Republican pollster, a founding partner of the opinion research firm Echelon Insights and a CNN contributor. She spends her days trying to understand the thinking of Republican voters, including hosting focus groups for New York Times Opinion. So I wanted to get her insights on why Republicans like Trump so much — even after his 2020 electoral loss, the Jan. 6 insurrection and over 90 criminal charges. What really explains Trump’s enduring appeal?

    Today we're giving a quick recap on the New Hampshire primary, where Donald Trump won and Nikki Haley claimed she has no intention of dropping out. Allie's dad, Ron Simmons, joins the show to break down our many questions on the upcoming election: What support does Nikki Haley actually have on the Right, and is Haley betting on Trump being incarcerated and unable to be the Republican candidate? Then, Russell Brand revealed that he's been reading the Bible and exploring Christianity. We explain why people like him are so needed in the commentary world and how exciting it is that he's exploring truth. We give a bit of advice on reading materials and encouragement for those in his position. We also take a look at a new mega-shark study that only further proves we don't actually know what dinosaurs (or things like "megalodon") looked like.

    Megyn Kelly is joined by attorneys Dave Aronberg and Mike Davis to discuss the major 9-0 ruling for former President Donald Trump at the Supreme Court and the secondary 5-4 ruling that helps him, why the lack of insurrection charges against Trump is crucial to Supreme Court ruling, the lack of evidence about insurrection on January 6, the media freakout after getting it so wrong, Judge Chutkan could hold Trump's D.C. trial during October 2024 or even after the election in November, whether these criminal trials are election interference, what might happen if Trump is jailed after elected but before inauguration, the millions Trump will have to pay after the New York trials, new witnesses alleging they knew about Fani Willis and Nathan Wade's affair, Terrance Bradley seemingly talking to a lot of people about personal issues, and more. Then Chris Moody and Jamie Weinstein, host and producer of the "Finding Matt Drudge" podcast, join to discuss the mystery of where Matt Drudge is now, why Drudge turned on Trump in 2020 after being a supporter in 2016, whether it was political or personal, how the Monica Lewinsky-Bill Clinton scandal made Matt Drudge, the way that story changed the media forever, Lewinsky back in the news now, how Megyn met Drudge, and more.
