Hello everyone. Welcome to a brand new episode of Liberty Before Let's Take.

Today's episode is going to be a little bit shorter. There has been so much chaos going on in our world

this week. It feels like every week it gets more and more. I don't know if I'm the only one that feels that way, but with Afghanistan, with COVID, with mandates, with vaccines, with, you know, everything happening in school boards and school boards trying to

If I were the devil, if I were the prince of darkness, I'd want to engulf the whole world in darkness, and I'd have a third of its real estate and four-fifs of its population, but I wouldn't be happy until

I have seized the ripest apple on the tree.

So I've set about however necessary to take over the United States. I'd separate the churches first. I'd

begin with a campaign of whispers. With the wisdom of the Serpent I would whisper to you as I

whispered to Eve, do as you please. To the young I would whisper that the Bible is a myth I would convince them that
