The following is a transcript from the Pro America Report.
Welcome back. Welcome back, Ed Martin here on the Pro America Report. Great to be back, another great show. I hope you enjoyed that interview. I ran it a second time in a recorded interview of Pastor Jeffress, Dr. Jeffress from down in Dallas. His new devotional, I’m sure is great, but he’s an inspiration, you know, in terms of being fearless and having a congregation that backs him up, which is important. So I just think that’s wonderful and I ran it again because I got some comments from folks yesterday when they heard it. So great stuff.
Alright, let me finish up today I. And this isn’t exactly a WYNDO, What you need to do, but this is an example of what I’ve been telling you. How to how to narrative bust, how to cut through the fake news, the big tech and the left. What they’re feeding you. And so here’s the examples, I got 2 examples that I pulled up.
One is the media is failing to cover the dramatic shift in how the world and America in my opinion. The government of America. The Biden administration, is dealing with President Xi and China. The kind – the communist regime. Because what happened was President Xi went to, I think, to Europe. I’m not sure where he went. It was, I don’t know if it was Davos or if it was one of the world forums, gave a speech recently, basically, and bragged on how they’re doing great and all. But here’s the interesting thing. Angela Merkel, the German Chancellor who is the sort of speaker of the of the European Union. You know, she’s the voice of the European Union, in part because Germany is so powerful, their economy is strong, stronger than others and in part, just because of the the dynamic and the personality, well, she, she, Merkel, sided with Xi, Xi, the the president of the Communist Chinese regime. Who said he basically said let’s not have a Cold War. Let’s not end up on the other side of things. Let, let’s not and she backed him up. So the German Chancellor Merkel said. Yeah, that’s right. We don’t want to divide up into Cold War camps and we want to be all together on the same side with China.
What’s that? I mean, at this point, the American people know in part because President Trump showed them, but in part because we’ve seen it, we’ve seen the impact in our world, they know that we’re not on the same side with China, communist regime. And my point here is the media is not covering this, right? There was a report, I don’t know, Gordon Chang, I think reported this, and and and let me say this, Gordon Chang unearthed this. It existed in the in the world you could have seen it, but a a senior professor at one of the communist regime controlled the universities in China, gave a speech before the election and said, you know, as long as Trump loses, we’ll have total. We’ll be able to really influence outcomes. We’ll be able to make sure we can figure out how to get things done in Washington, DC. That’s what he said. Now he could have been a poli sci professor. You know, sort of rambling on what he thought. But the truth is that in China, in the communist regime. You don’t get to have a lot of thoughts outside of what the Communist regime tells you. That’s not how it works. By the way, it may remind you of America, where increasingly you’re not allowed to have thoughts outside of what the narrative, the narrative machine tells you.
That’s my point. Where are they journalists? Where are the people covering this dramatic shift in the rivalry between America and the communist regime and Europe? And when I say rivalry, I’m using their terms. We ought to call it a Cold War, you know, President Xi in in, in asking that we not have a Cold War mentality. He’s acknowledging that one camp, the Donald Trump presidency, did think we had a Cold War footing. And before we have a hot war, we ought to get our minds wrapped around a Cold War because it’s a Cold War. So that’s one example of how the narrative machine is knocking us sideways and not giving us a chance to see what’s going on.
Another one another way the narrative machine is is slowly but surely trying to grind you down is the coverage and it was referred to by John Schlafly earlier in the program. John Schlafly referred to the New York Times article about a guy named a congressman named Scott Perry. Scott Perry is a really good guy. Really, really interesting guy. And he is a helpful conservative in the House of Representatives. When you’re a young legislator, meaning not much seniority. You don’t have a lot of pull, you know, you know, seniority matters in the House. But if you have a smart voice and you’re savvy, you can make things move. The New York Times is writing about Scott Perry as if he was again in the narrative machine, as if he was a part of some seditious coup, right? Instead of an active legislator in, in a state where there’s lots of, you know, concerns. As I tell people all the time, if if the if the narrative machine won’t let you say that there are that there’s fraud and and irregularities, just express what the the narrative machine allows, which is voters sometimes don’t have confidence that the system works. That used to be true.
I think it’s I think you’ll hear conjecture from Stacey Abrams about how African Americans don’t believe that their vote counts and all that. So we want to work to have confidence. I’ve told you before that when I was chairman of the Board of Elections in St. Louis, the two things you have to do to run a good election is have a good system, work hard at it. It’s not easy. And then #2 must have confidence in the system, that’s a PR problem, and so we spent time talking to the Bosnian American community and the Vietnamese American community, sometimes putting into their languages some of the materials so that they could they eas, more easily, deal with some of the changes in the system. Confidence matters in a system, so Scott Perry is now featured. I think it’s the second time in the New York Times. John Schlafly referred to one earlier article, Congressman Perry from Pennsylvania, a junior member. But he’s now positioned as somehow nefarious because he represents his his constituents interests and because he has an opinion. Well, that’s why you get elected to Congress, to have an opinion. That’s the point.
And now back to let me wrap this up because I’m running out of time. What I’m saying to you is that the narrative machine examples of how we’re being ill served by the media are are these kinds of things. Sometimes it’s the dog that’s not barking, as the old saying goes from the from the Sherlock Holmes mysteries, you know that that should reveal something to you, and that’s that in this case. So those are two examples, I’ll put them. Up on social media. Remember, what I’m saying is, you know, this does link to the WYNDO. What you need to do is name the narrative machine, understand what they’re doing to u,s and then cut through it, and here’s 2 examples. How you have to cut through it.
Alright, I’ve got to wrap things up. Let me say thank you as always to our great technical director, Noah for doing a super job keeping the, keeping the show on track.
