Summary

Today we're covering several topics, starting with the story of Lia Thomas, a transgender college swimmer who was a decent athlete as a man, but has been dominating the competition since deciding to identify as a woman. Then, we discuss New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio's new vaccine mandate, which would force kids 5-11 to take the COVID vaccine and be prepared to show their papers to participate in society. Lastly, we talk to conservative writer and mother of five Bethany Mandel, editor for the "Heroes of Liberty" children's book series, which aims to give objective, historical accounts of conservative icons like Ronald Reagan and Thomas Sowell. --- Today's Sponsors: Cozy Earth is made from super-soft viscose from highly sustainable bamboo.

We're going to talk about a few things today. We are going to talk about this transgender

0:23.0

swimmer, so called transgender swimmer, whose name is Leah Thomas, who is smashing women's swimming records.

0:33.0

Surprise, surprise. We are also going to talk about New York City mandating vaccine passports for kids as young as five.

0:40.0

Also in LA, apparently kids are getting bribed with food like pizza and tacos to get the vaccine without parental consent.

0:50.0

We're going to talk about that and then we're going to get reaction to this pediatric coerced vaccination and vaccination verification program from Bethany Mandel.

1:02.0

She is a mom of five. She's homeschools three of those kids. She's a writer. She is an editor at ricochet.com. She is a contributing writer for desert news.

1:12.0

She is also the editor of the Heroes of Liberty series. We are also going to talk to her about that. It is a series of kids books with amazing illustrations about American heroes like Ronald Reagan, Thomas Soul, Amy Coney Barrett.

1:26.0

We're going to talk about that with her. I'm really excited for you to hear about that because it's such an awesome project that you guys are going to benefit from and love.

1:34.0

But first, I want to talk about this story about well, actually before we get into that, let me just say for those of you who are watching or listening yesterday, yesterday.

1:44.0

And if you follow me on Instagram, you might have seen that I said this that I was not feeling well yesterday. I don't know what it was.

1:52.0

But if you go back in, you watch yesterday's YouTube video. I am looking rough because I was feeling rough. And thankfully Owen Strand is an amazing guest.

2:04.0

And he can just talk by himself. He could have just hosted relatable. And I didn't have to say anything. And he could totally carry the conversation.

2:11.0

And that's exactly what I needed. Praise the Lord because I wasn't feeling well. I don't know what it was. But I am totally fine now. I woke up this morning feeling fine.

2:20.0

But if yesterday, if I seemed Owen definitely didn't, but if I seemed a little bit low energy and a little bit like I was struggling, that's because I was.

2:29.0

But today, I'm back with the vengeance. And I've got all the enthusiasm and the energy needed to make up for yesterday.

2:37.0

So let's talk about, let's talk about Leah Thomas, this transgender swimmer who, according to the Washington Times, is smashing women's records and it's stoking outrage because of that.

2:52.0

Now, let me make a note on pronouns. I always make this note, but I think it's important. So people don't just think that I am being purposely inflammatory.

3:02.0

When I use he, him, his pronouns for a man, it is not because I'm trying to be purposely offensive. It's not because I want to make this person Leah Thomas angry or upset or self conscious or anything like that. That is not my purpose. My purpose is to speak that which is true.

3:20.0

Language matters and language is supposed to speak to reality. It's supposed to indicate that which is true. And what I know is biologically true is that this person Leah Thomas is a man.

3:34.0

He has male chromosomes. He was a male from the moment of conception. And because pronouns have always indicated that reality, I see no reason to change my language in order to conform to a lie.

3:53.0

And because I believe it's so important, especially now, to live not by lies and to double down on that which is true, while still trying to be as loving as kind as possible, I will use he, him, pronouns for men.
