Summary

Today we're mainly talking about the rising police state in Australia. With a whopping and tragic 4 average deaths from COVID-19 over the past 7 days, the land Down Under has launched into some of the most restrictive lockdown measures anywhere. We'll talk about why this is neither scientific nor compassionate, and fortunately there are still people in Australia who agree, as anti-lockdown protests have been occurring across the nation. This is a strong reminder, however, of how important it is for individuals to speak up about their values. Here in the U.S., many schools are trying to mandate masks for children, even though there are no known benefits to this and several known downsides. But when regular people in these school districts raise a respectful ruckus, this can change. --- Today's Sponsors: Patriot Mobile has the courage to stand up for America, for Christian values, & our Constitution, plus they have special discounts for veterans and First Responders.

0:00.0	Hey guys, welcome to relatable happy Monday. Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. So we've
0:15.2	actually got some good news that we're going to talk about today. I know there's a lot
0:19.6	of bad going on in the world and we're actually going to talk about some of that too, but
0:23.8	I'm going to talk about I guess the silver lining in some of that bad news and then just
0:28.2	some good news stories. The first good news story that I just want to touch on, we're not going
0:33.1	to get into too much, is that today is the last day that New York Governor Andrew Cuomo is
0:40.3	in office. We talked about all of this a couple of weeks ago. We've also had Janice Dean on this
0:45.8	podcast too has been going hard after Andrew Cuomo really for the past year. And the
0:54.1	reason why she was going after him was not actually the reason why he ended up resigning. She
0:59.3	was going after him for what I think is the most scandalous part of all of this of his entire
1:06.2	entire time and leadership. And that was for shoving a bunch of COVID positive elderly nursing
1:14.2	home patients back into the nursing home knowingly. And there are different reasons for that. We
1:19.3	talked about the corruption that led to that kind of decision, the financial motivation that led
1:25.1	to that kind of decision back. I think it was in April 2020. We were talking about it and that's not
1:30.2	even the reason why he left office, which is really sad. I mean, the guy literally has blood on
1:35.6	his hands, but his hands got him in trouble in another way because he was touchy feeling with
1:41.5	some women and was accused of sexual harassment. That is why he ended up stepping down. Now it's his
1:50.8	replacement going to be any better probably not probably not. So that is not necessarily going
1:59.7	to be long term good news for New York. But I mean, this guy was hoisted up as a hero and the
2:06.6	foil to Donald Trump, while Donald Trump was in office. And his rise in fall has just been one of
2:12.6	the most stunning things that we have ever seen. I mean, the guy got an Emmy award for his leadership.
2:17.7	I didn't even know that was possible. And also he got like a $5 million book deal talking about
