I need to talk to you about something serious. Last week, I received a demand letter from lawyers

representing Kanakuk Ministries, a Christian summer camp in Missouri. They're threatening to sue me

for defamation because of something I said on my podcast with Congressman Roe Kana.

Here's what I said. I brought Elizabeth Phillips on my show, and she talked about

how Kanakook employees have been molesting thousands of kids for years and putting them under

NDAs after settlements so they can never come out and talk about their sexual abuse and trauma. Cana Cook's lawyers

are demanding I take down that portion of the interview, issue a public apology, and stop talking

about this. They gave me 10 days. That deadline has passed. Here's my response. No, I don't negotiate with pedophiles or the people who defend them.

I'm not taking anything down. I'm not apologizing and I'm damn sure not going to stop talking

about child sexual abuse at a Christian camp that continues to operate in the same grounds where horrific abuse

took place.

Let me be crystal clear about the facts.

Facts that Kanakook's own lawyers admitted in their letter.

One.

Pete Newman, a senior Kanakuk employee and Camp Director, sexually abused children at Kanakook for multiple years in the early 2000s.

He's now serving life sentences.

Two, between 20 and 30 civil lawsuits were filed against Kanakook.

Three, multiple confidential settlement agreements were executed with victims,

NDAs that prevented these kids from speaking publicly about what happened to them.

Cana Cook can't prove the number is less than thousands.

And given their own admission of a cover-up,

the true number is unknowable.
