Well, good morning everyone. It’s a beautiful Saturday morning here. And as you can see, I’m not in my studio, I’m actually in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. And every year around this time, it’s yesterday was my wife’s birthday and on the 19th was my daughter’s birthday. And every year for the past 15 years, I take them someplace in the world for their birthdays. Today, for the last couple of days, we’ve been in Puerto Vallarta. I share a condo here with my slices pizza partner, Tony, and we just had a wonderful couple of days. You know, the Mexican people are just, they’re so courteous and so wonderful.

Whenever we come here, we really enjoy just the whole atmosphere. It’s wonderful. So it’s a beautiful place. And I can’t show you the ocean, I’m looking out over it. But if I do, my face will become very dark because of the light. So. But it’s a beautiful place, trust me for that. So hope everybody’s doing well. Hope you have. Looking forward to a great weekend. I know it’s Saturday morning, it’s early. For many of us here, it’s 10 o’. Clock. On the west coast, it’s an hour earlier than us. And then of course on the east coast, you’re ahead of us.

So whatever it is you’re planning today, I hope you enjoy it and enjoy a wonderful weekend. So what do we have to talk about? You know, my wife warned me, she said, before you go out today, try not to rant and get upset and get aggravated and all of that. And I have to be honest, for the last couple of days I haven’t paid too much attention to the news. So I’m in pretty good spirits. And by the way, tomorrow I’ll be heading to Florida. I have a big conference for Franz East Wine. We’re going to be meeting with a lot of different accounts and they asked me to be a keynote speaker here.

We were there last year. It’s called ECRM and it’s in Palm Beach. Last year we were there in Vegas and it was a great conference. So this year we’re attending again. Should be good for our company. Last year it worked out well and we’ve grown so much in the past year. Last year we were in 400 locations. Today we’re in 3500 and we’ll probably be in 5000 by the end of the year. So we’re really growing. And, you know, very thankful to God for blessing us and blessing this endeavor of mine. But you know, one Thing that I will respond or will talk about is Eric and Lyle Menendez, they went in front of the parole board on Thursday and Friday.

They went individually, and unfortunately, both of them were denied parole. And people, I have a lot of experience with the parole board. I went in front of the board two times myself. Once I was denied, the second time I was granted parole. I understand the process. I also went several times with my father while he was up for parole, who made parole five times, by the way. And each time after he made it, at some point in time, he violated and went back to prison. So I’m very familiar with the parole process, how it goes. And in my opinion, both boys, I think their minds were made up prior to the parole hearing even starting.

You know, in a case like Lyle and Eric, who, let’s face it, it was a very heinous crime, we’re not going to take away from that. You know, you kill your mom and dad with shotguns. It’s a very heinous crime. No doubt about it. And I think the parole board probably had that in their mind and said, listen, we’re probably going to take a lot of abuse, a lot of criticism if in fact, we do grant these two young men parole. Not young men anymore. They’re in their 50s. They’ve done over 30 years in prison. And the easy way out most of the times is better to say no than to say yes.

And they can give their reason. Now, the reasoning was, I think they took into consideration, obviously, the heinousness of the crime, and I have to keep saying that. But they also cited the fact that Eric, who was a younger brother, got into two fights, two altercations back in 1997 and 2011, and he also got cited for having a cell phone, which is not allowed in prison. So they said, if he can’t follow the rules in prison, well, then how’s he going to follow the rules when he’s outside? But come on, I mean, that’s nonsense. You get into fights in prison.

It happens. You can’t help yourself. Sometimes you got to defend yourself. What are you supposed to do, sit there and take a beating? We don’t know why it happens. That’s number one, not a good excuse. And they happened so many years ago. And as far as having a cell phone, okay, it is against the rules, but come on, you know, so many people try to do that in there. And those that probably just didn’t have the ability to get the cell phone, but would have gotten one if they could have tried it’s it’s, it’s a silly reason.

I think mine were made up prior and they cited the same reason for Eric, the same reason for Lyle. So, you know, listen, it’s unfortunate I told you that I was their cellmate for many, many years, specifically Lyle. We were on the same tier. We were cells next door for 11 months. The boys did say that their father was abusive to them. I believe that’s true. You know, I’ve been a supporter of them over the years. I believe that they have done a job on themselves, rehabilitating themselves in prison before they even believed that they had a shot at parole.

They were upstanding citizens in prison. They helped a lot of people. They had courses, they graduated, you know, a college in there. They did a lot of good things. They really did rehabilitate themselves in there. Their entire family was behind them and wanted to see them released. And the whole, you know, idea of release is, are you going to be a productive member of society? Are you going to play by the rules, not break the laws, laws, and are you not going to be a danger to others? And I believe in that case, they’re not. I think what happened with them and their parents is an isolated incident.

And again, I’m not downplaying the crime at all. It was a very heinous crime, there’s no question about it. But, hey, they were young. They’ve done over 30 some odd years, and through all appearances, they’ve really rehabilitated themselves. So I was disappointed. I was hoping that they did get paroled. The district attorney in California and Los Angeles fought against it. He did not want to see them paroled. He said that they did not take responsibility for their crimes, that they actually blamed the fact of their father’s abuse and that that wasn’t taking responsibility. They made it as an excuse.

And according to the district attorney, they said, hey, you might have been abused, but it’s still no excuse to kill your parents. And you know what, he’s got a point with that, too. But I’m for the underdog. I believe they should have been released. Now what happens? They can’t go back to the parole board for another three years. So maybe they have a shot then. But prior to that, they are able to go in front of Newsom, Gavin Newsom, who’s the governor, who can look at the file and he can commute their sentences or he can pardon, you know, he has the power to do that.

People were saying on social media, Trump is going to pardon them. You don’t Understand the law. Trump doesn’t have any power over state crimes. It’s a state crime that they’re incarcerated for. And Trump has no ability to pardon. And that’s up to the governor of the state. Trump can only pardon on federal crimes, so that’s out of the question. So here we go. The saga continues and we’ll see what happens. Now it’s in Newsom’s hand. He has the next 30 days. My guess is that he’s not going to pardon them. I don’t think he will because he’s looking to run for president.

He don’t want to take any chances. Should he pardon them and something goes wrong, you know, then he’s going to be held liable, responsible. Why didn’t you listen to the parole board? But then on the other hand, he’s a soft on crime guy. He live it’s a sanctuary state. Maybe he thinks he’ll appeal to those that want to defund the police, who knows? Now this guy is thinking, I am not a fan of his. I think he’s a phony, a hypocrite. I’ve called him out on social media. Anything he does, he’s going to be for, he’s going to do for his own personal agenda.

He’s not going to do it for the boys. He could care less if they get out, rot in prison. He doesn’t care. That’s the kind of guy Newsom is, in my opinion. He’s let California go to hell. So, you know, whatever he does, he’s going to figure out politically what’s the best move for him and that’s what he’ll do. So if he believes the best move for him politically is to release the boys, then he’ll do it whether they were a danger of community or not. That’s Newsom. He lets illegal aliens, you know, run free there even after they’ve committed crimes.

He’s soft on crime, he’s defund the police, he’s all of that stuff. So he’s phony and a hypocrite as far as I’m concerned. And Usam, if you’re listening, you know, you want to bring me on your show, I’d be happy to come on and we can debate all these things. I love to let people understand from a citizen’s point of view, a resident of California, just how you’ve destroyed the state, how you send businesses into bankruptcy, how you chase major businesses out of the state, how you were negligent when it came to the fires and everything else you’re a clown and a joke as far as I’m concerned.

And running for president again, it’s your own personal agenda. Now all you’re going to do is do anything to be the anti Trump. We understand your political ambition in that regard. So, hey, go for it and we’ll see what the people, you know, say in 2028. Because you will be running, there’s no question about it. So that’s that. Today, you know, we’re going to respond to some comments and questions, of course, on both rumble and YouTube. I want to take a look. I have a couple other topics I want to talk about. And please, you know, I made this comment last week.

This is not the platform to talk about Israel and Hamas, all your anti Semites. I’m not going to respond to you. I told you my position with respect to Israel is that they have a right to exist like every other nation in the earth. And I am disagreeing, okay, with Iran and with any, you know, terrorist nation that wants to blow them from the face of the earth. And that’s what’s been stated. And I disagree with that. For Israel or any other nation on the face of the earth, I do believe that terrorists should be eliminated because they’re a danger to people everywhere, all the time.

And we shouldn’t have terrorism. We’ve had, you know, some obviously seriously bad effects here in the United States. So I’m against terrorism, but I’m not gonna re, I’m not gonna respond to any anti Semite or any kind of Palestinian stuff. I can say this again. I’ll just get it out there. I don’t want to see one, not even one Palestinian, okay, lose their life because of this war. Not one. So that’s my position. So please don’t, don’t waste your time because we’re not going to respond to it here. All right, let me get to something in a minute.

Okay. All right, let me, let me ask you this. I am going to do a video. I, I really believe this. You know, when I looked at the happenings this past week with Trump, first the visit with Putin in Alaska and then the summit that he had with all the European leaders in the White House, it really brought me back to a comparison of Don Corleone and the Godfather. I really mean it. Do you remember when he had that table, that summit, when he had all the leaders after the killings of his son and whatever, and he had all the leaders, leaders of all the families around that table, and he got up and he brought them all together and he Tried to, you know, establish peace among the families.

And I’m thinking of Trump in the same light. Now, some of you who call Trump, you know, a mobster and who think that you know all these. These things about Trump, you’ll probably like that comparison, unless you like Don Corleone more than you like Donald Trump. And some of you, I’m sure, do, because you, you know, you’re infected with tds, the syndrome. But I’m going to do a video on that because there were many comparisons. I’m not going to get into it now, but I’d like to know your thoughts on that. Listen, you know, I believe Trump wants the peace.

Of course he does. He doesn’t want to see innocent people die. Who does? You know, you don’t want to see innocent people die, no matter where they are in the world. You know, and again, it’s always leadership that causes this. It’s not the people, you know, living in their homes, in their towns and their neighborhoods. It’s always leadership that does this. In the case with Putin and the Ukraine, it was Putin that caused it. Now, he can make excuses. He can say, hey, you know what? We didn’t want Ukraine joining NATO. And I believe that’s true, because he didn’t want, in his view, enemies right at his border.

So I get it. So Ukraine didn’t have to. Maybe we just appease him. He didn’t have to join NATO. Ukraine has the backing of allies anyway, so what’s the difference? United States supported them, Europe is supporting them. So what’s the difference? They didn’t need to, you know, poke the bear, so to speak, and join NATO. And then there’s some, you know, territories that he wants to reclaim for Russia. Well, I don’t know, you know, where that’s going to go, but that’s what he’s saying. That’s a stipulation for him ending the war. But remember, people, you know what? When he went in and took Crimea while Obama was president, Obama let it happen.

He let it happen. So, you know, Putin said, you know what? Putin is, in some ways, he’s a warmonger. And he said, okay, I took Crimea so easily. Let me go in and take some more. And I’m not going to allow them to become a part of NATO because now I have an enemy at my border, and I don’t want that. You know? And Biden, listen, let’s face it, say what you want. Biden was weak. Come on. He was a weak guy. Nobody respected him. Nobody in the world respected Biden. You know, they may have liked him because they had some relationship with him at one point in time because he’s been in, you know, politics longer than, you know, longer than whatever you want to say.

The guy is a career politician, you know, eating off the people for all these years. So maybe they had a relationship, but nobody respected him or feared him. Certainly Putin didn’t, you know, so he did what he did. So now here comes Trump, and he said, I want peace. I don’t want to see people getting killed anymore. I want to stop all the wars. And that’s what he’s been doing. You know, it’s kind of low key. I mean, obviously Trump will let people know what he’s doing, but he stopped a number of wars since he became president.

So here he is now, putting this summit together, bringing people together. And, you know, the horrible thing about it, I have to say, this people, and it’s not for any other reason, this isn’t a Democrat or Republican thing. This is just fact. This is what it is. The Democrats are rooting against Trump, stopping the war between Russia and Ukraine. No question about it. They’re criticizing everything that he does. They do not want to see this war end because they don’t want him to get the credit for it. It’s very simple. They would rather see people continue to die in both Ukraine and Russia than see Trump get the credit for stopping the war.

And if you disbelieve that, then you’re delusional. Just watch the news. Every one of them are complaining about how Trump is handling this. And what do they know about diplomacy, these people? What does Jasmine Crockett know about diplomacy, dealing with foreign nations? She doesn’t know a thing. What is, you know, Elizabeth Warren know about it? She doesn’t know anything. You know, all of these. They don’t know anything about diplomacy. They don’t know anything about business. They don’t know anything about dealing with foreign nations. They don’t know anything about negotiation. And yet they’re just knocking Trump because it’s Trump.

Every single thing that Trump does, whether good for the people or bad for the people, they will knock. They will go against it, because the truth of the matter is people. And I’m telling you this for a reason. This has been my theme throughout this. It’s not that I’m so pro Trump. I’m so pro what I believe is right for this country. I believe it’s right for this to have two genders. I’m a Christian. That’s what I believe. That’s what I grew up with. That’s what it’s been like for thousands of years. I believe that transgender men shouldn’t compete with women in women’s sports.

That’s what I believe. I have five daughters. I have granddaughters. I don’t want men competing against women. What’s wrong with that? That’s common sense. That isn’t Trump. That’s me saying common sense. These are my beliefs. I believe we should have a closed border. I don’t believe that taxpayers should be responsible for paying for illegal immigrants that come here fraudulently. They come here to get our health care that we have to foot the bill for. They come here for whatever reasons they come. And illegal migrants should come here through a legal process. We have a process. I believe that we should be closing up common sense, whether it be Trump.

If Biden would have taken that position, I would have supported Biden, no question. It isn’t a fact that it just happens to be Trump that’s supporting the positions that I believe in. This isn’t about anything else, people. And for those of you that say different, you’re just delusional. You just hate Trump so much that you can’t see clearly. So here we are having people now on the left that will denounce anything that Trump does, whether it’s good for the people or not. Every position that they take seems to be wrong. It’s just anti Trump. Everything you know, they’re.

They’re championing illegal migrants and they’re forgetting about the American people, and it’s so obvious and evident. So what is my point in all of this? Once again, you cannot trust them because they don’t care about you, they don’t care about me. They only care about maintaining power and maintaining their position. And that’s the truth. That’s the bottom line. They show it every single day, in every single post, in every single thing that they say. They’re not for common sense. They’re not for the common people. They’re for their own agenda. We’d like to get every one of them up there and explain.

Every one of them should be held accountable to us and explain how they became multimillionaires while they were working for the people of the United States on a congressional salary. They should explain it to every one of us. We have a right to know I how they’re making their money because they’re public servants. They’re not bosses. They’re public servants. That’s what they are. So why shouldn’t they explain it? The bottom line is people, they’re there for their own self interest. And I’m not only talking Democrats, it’s true of Republicans too. There’s no question about it. There’s no question about it.

That’s the system that’s been created. It’s why I wrote the book Mafia Democracy. If you go down the line to all 400 and some odd people in Congress and you say, okay, we’re putting you on the spot, under oath, we want to know how you became wealthy while you were a public servant on a congressional salary. We want to know, we want you to tell us who lobbied you, what money did you take out of a taxpayer donation or taxpayers paying a certain cause? How did you abuse it? Because so many of them did. So many of them did.

You know, there’s usaid, usaid. We saw all the corruption there, all the abuse of our money. You don’t think that money, some of it was kicked back to the people that, that, that made it happen? Of course it was. Come on, you’re not silly, you’re not stupid. You understand that this is what happened. This is their own piggy bank when they get into Congress. So you can’t trust people like that anymore. You can’t trust people that go against Trump just because they want to maintain power. They don’t care if he’s doing something good for the people or not.

Let’s Talk about Washington D.C. washington D.C. is basically a hellhole. It’s not a safe city. It’s the nation’s capital and it’s not a safe city. Crime is not down. We saw that. They’ve been fudging the numbers. That’s a fact. Okay? Crime is not down. And if it is down, it’s down from a 30 year high only two years ago in murders. So is that an accomplishment? People are getting murdered there every single week in our nation’s capital. So Trump says, okay, I’m going to clean it up, I’m going to make it the most beautiful city in the world.

And they’re against it. Well, what have they done for the past years to help the people there? The people are for it because they’re the ones that have, they’re not in Congress where they get security on taxpayers dime, where every place they go they got people watching them. They don’t have to worry about it. Common people can’t walk their dogs at night, they can’t go to restaurants. It’s a dangerous city. There’s carjackings, there’s murders, there’s kids running wild. So Trump wants To clean it up. And they’re against it because they don’t want him to get the credit for cleaning it up.

They don’t care about the people. There are so many examples that I can cite. So what’s the bottom line? What am I saying about all of this? What I’m saying is you cannot trust people that hate our president just for the sake of hating our president. Whether he’s doing good or not, he wants to stop the war. They don’t want him to stop the war because he’ll get the credit for it, may help him get reelected. So they’d rather see people die. That’s the bottom line. And what does that mean? That means they have blood on their hands.

They should be uniting and saying, okay, yeah, let’s stop this war. People are dying. It’s death. It’s final. Its families destroyed. They don’t care because if they did, they would get behind the president in an effort to stop the war. But they’re not. It’s the same with illegal migrants coming over the country. If they really cared about people in communities and taxpayers paying their money to support these people, they would say, you’re right, Donald. We have to get a hold of these people. But instead, they’re making a big issue like, Trump is Gestapo. Trump is Hitler.

Trump is. It’s all this nonsense BS rhetoric. You know what gets me, people? Let me tell you something. I’m not the smartest guy in the world. There’s no question about it. But I’ll tell you what. I’m smarter than a lot of these people in Congress. And I have to sit back and say, who are these people to tell me what to do, to have to have reign over my family when half of them are just. They’re dumb. They have their own personal agenda. They don’t care about me or my family or my neighborhoods or anything else.

And these people, I don’t even know how they get elected. They’re not smart. They’re not good people. If you’re against something that’s good for the people because you have your own agenda, that’s at the top of your list, you’re not a good person. I’m sorry. So you know, and it’s. I sit back and I say, these people have control over my life, my family’s life. Elizabeth Warren, a fraud and a phony, that she is aoc who won’t even go into her own district, her own people in her own district, her own constituents say she never shows up.

She doesn’t care. She only Cares about, you know, grandstanding. Jasmine Crockett, another one, she don’t care about her own people. She wants to be an Internet star, a social media star. That’s all she does. She’s grandstanding for herself. Her own constituents say she didn’t care about us, her staff, the people that work for her said she’s a miserable person. She thinks who the hell she is. She’s at an airport, she runs in front of a person in a wheelchair. They get on the plane first because she thinks she’s something special. She’s a public servant being paid by taxpayers.

Goes to their head. They think who the hell they are. They’re nobody in that respect. Nobody. They’re not better than anybody. Nobody in Congress is better than anybody else. And that’s why we have to monitor these people. We have to police them. We have to try to understand what they’re doing and why they’re doing it, watching. They’re against Trump when he’s trying to clean up the city. Oh, now he’s going to send the National Guard into nine other cities. Well, you know what? If crime is rampant in those cities and he wants to stop it, why not? What’s wrong with that? Why would you be against it? Top of coffee.

Well, listen, people, that’s my and my take. I’m going to go to the comments early today because we’ll get into some other things I know when I start looking at it. Let’s go to YouTube first. And by the way, have any of you seen my interview with Carlos Leder? You know who Carlos Lehta was? He was a big drug smuggler, a big cocaine smuggler. You know, some 35, 40 years ago, he worked with Pablo Escobar. As a matter of fact, some interesting things that he told me. He told me that Pablo Escobar was the one that turned him into the DEA and to the authorities and Colombia.

Where’s Pablo Escobar? Very, very interesting interview. You can go up there. It’s posted yesterday. And he, you know, he spent 30 some odd years in prison. And because of the fact that he was a German citizen, because he’s half German, his father was German. That’s how he got out of prison early. Otherwise he would do. He would be doing life. But he’s been in Colombia now for a couple years. He’s 75 years old. He’s not in criminal activity anymore. I know some of the comments that I got said, oh, come on, you know, he’s still a criminal.

No, he’s not. You know, he wrote A book. He’s trying to live out his life. He did 30 some odd years in prison. Listen, I’m not downplaying any of the things that he did before. You know, that’s a brutal, brutal industry. No question about it. People died at his hands. He admits it, he talks about it. It’s a brutal, brutal industry. You know, the drug trade, let’s face it. But here he is now 75 years old, and as he reformed, I believe so, you know, he talks about it, you know, so, you know, it’s a very interesting interview and it’s posted on Rumble also for those of you on Rumble, so take a look at it.

I think you’ll enjoy it. And it’s funny that we have access to these people. You know, a lot of people want to come on the show because we have good viewers like yourself, all of you that are watching out here.

There are people that, you know, unfortunately, you know, they’ve chosen a pass in life that they just can’t get out of. But there are good people out there, too, that have done some bad things in their life and come to the realization that they have and now turn their lives around and try to be productive members of society.

And I think Carlos Letter is one of them. You know, Pablo Escobar’s son, the same thing. Well, he was never in the drug trade, but, you know, he had a tremendous interview with me. You people really enjoyed it and a number of other people that have turned their lives around. You know, we did a couple of really good ones, you know, that I think people are really enjoying and we’ll continue to do that. We have some good ones coming up. So thank you for your loyalty and thank you for, you know, supporting me in the way you do.

I really do appreciate that. I really mean it. I don’t just say it, I mean it. You know, it’s like these, these Celebrities that, you know, all of a sudden, they become, you know, they buy into their own myth, and they don’t realize that if it wasn’t for people that support them so much, you know, what would they be? Who would they be? And then, well, I’m so talented, and people, you know, they should be supporting me. No, they don’t have to. There are many, many choices. Just like here, you have millions of choices, you know, in social media to tune into somebody else.

So the fact that you tune in to me as regularly as you do and as many people as do, well, I appreciate it, because I know you could have pushed the button. I’m gone. I understand that. So we work hard to try to accommodate you. Anybody that thinks that gets so full of themselves, you know, and I think we’re seeing it in the case of some celebrities who think that they can call out people because they’ve reached a certain. Certain status in life, and all of a sudden, boom, it’s gone. You don’t call out people that have been supporting you for years because you have different political views.

No, you don’t do that. We’re entitled to different political views. If you want to go after the politician, that’s one thing. You don’t go after the people that support them. And they do it on the left constantly. I have to say it. Left celebrities, left politicians. Come on, we’ve seen it. Biden. Biden called, you know, Clinton called him out. Nancy Pelosi called this out. You know, Robert De Niro called people out. I mean, and it doesn’t work. It backfires. Shouldn’t be doing that. Sorry. Okay, we put the glasses on and get to some of the comments.

All right. I read them from my phone as we talk. So here we go. Michael, I’m shocked. Colosta. I know. Listen, that’s a. The drug trade is a brutal trade, people. You survive that. It’s something I have to tell you. Trump deploys national guard to 19 states amid crime crackdown. Yes, he has. And, hey, what’s wrong with that? Lapco? Okay, again, we don’t solicit donations on here, contrary to what other people might be saying. Of course we appreciate them. You don’t have to give us a donation. I promise you, we put it to good use. Doesn’t go in my pocket like some people might suggest.

We put it to good use because I have a staff of people, you know, that work for me. And we. We compensate them. We compensate them quite well to do a good job, to bring you good content and to do Other things, but. So because of the fact that you, you donate, we do try to give you priority and answer you your questions first. So, Lapco, thank you. Very loyal. Every week you do the same. Why aren’t you lavishing your wife with gifts and attention on her birthday instead of talking to us mooks? Just kidding. Thanks for your advice and cautionary tales, brother.

Well, yesterday was my wife’s birthday and we’ve. I’ve treated her, I think, pretty well all week. Look, she’s my queen, she’s my princess. She’s the love of my life. She’s my everything. That woman, what she went through because of the baggage that I carried and the fact that she stayed with me, raised my children properly, she’s just, she’s the best, you know, and I at times haven’t been the greatest guy because of all the baggage that I’ve carried throughout my life. But she knows that I’ve always loved her and I’ve always treated her, you know, like as best as I possibly could with my ups and downs and everything else.

And we’ve been married 40 years. I know, we’re 41, almost 42 years now. And she’s the love of my life. So she’s entitled to have a great birthday and I make sure I give it to her every year. But Lapco, thank you very much and I appreciate that. And you’re not moocs. You’re my family. You know, you really are. You’re my family. Caroline, Ehs. Thank you very much, Caroline. I grew up with Italian immigrant grandparents. They and my parents were treated like half citizens, yet still praise this country for the opportunity. You know, that’s true. When Italian migrants came over here early on, we weren’t treated well.

Not me. I didn’t have that problem. But my grandfather and people that came before us weren’t treated well. We were called wops, you know, without papers, and we weren’t treated very well. But you know what? We appreciated what this country had to offer. We worked hard, worked our way up and love America. Italians love America. And that’s true of many, many other immigrants that came over here early on. They weren’t treated well, but they appreciated what this country had to offer, and they worked hard and became good, productive citizens of this country. So, Caroline, that’s a great post.

Thank you very much for that. Okay. Greg Mitchell. Greg, appreciate you. You’re always very loyal and you’re always here on a Saturday. Michael, thanks for the magazine. Yeah, Greg sent me a Fortune magazine, you know, the 50 biggest and wealthiest bosses in the country, whatever. It was written in 1986 and he asked me to sign it, and so I signed that for him and sent it back to him, and he appreciated it very much. The letter was for you, but really? Oh, yeah, he sent me a letter and by accident we put it back in the envelope and sent it back.

But I appreciate the letter, Craig, thank you, really, thanks for all you do for everyone. I look forward to finally meeting you one day, my friend. I’m sure we will meet. And I put on there amiga nostro, which means friend of ours, and you know what that is in our old, you know, mob culture, what that meant. But yes, now I consider people amiga nostra, friends of ours, Many friends of ours. Amiga nostra in Christ, for all my brothers and sisters, in the lord. But, Greg, thank you for, you know, your generous donation and for coming in.

Ray Volti, Love of money is diabolical. Seek first the kingdom of God and all things will be added to you. Yes, yes, I believe in that. You know that as a Christian, I absolutely believe that. Jose Rivera, what’s your opinion on u. S. Navy ships being stationed near the coast of Venezuela? War against drug trafficking, or going after Nicolas Maduro? You know, should the United States be the policeman for every other nation? I don’t know. You know, I don’t want to say I’m ambivalent about that. I think every situation is different. We don’t like Maduro, Trump doesn’t like maduro, this administration doesn’t like maduro.

I can’t comment beyond that. I just pray that he knows what he’s doing better than I do. You know, I don’t. I’m not in possession of all the information or all the reasoning behind it, but hopefully he knows what he’s doing. Chris M. Michael, I wanted to thank you for your advice, videos and general great content to help me to get away from my bad path and showed me that new people really can change. Greetings from Germany. Well, Chris, thank you very much. I really appreciate that. We try. You know, listen, people, how could I say this? I’m not patting myself on the back when I say this, but I really do have an interest in helping people when I can.

Now, I want to be clear on this. I can’t get to everybody that seeks advice and help from me. I can’t. And if I don’t respond to somebody, it’s not because I don’t want to, it’s because I just can’t. You know, I have a very full agenda, you Know, I have, I have two companies that I’m very much involved in, both Slices Pizza and my wine company. I’m all over social media. I’m a speaker, I’m writing another book, I’m doing a movie. I’ve got so much going on then I have my wife and my family, my grandchildren.

You know, there’s almost sometimes you say not enough hours in a day, but that doesn’t take away from the fact that I do have a real heart for people. And you know, in saying this, I want to tell you this. I created this Franzes family platform for just this very reason. I have more input in there. Yes, it’s groups and I don’t get to do one on one too often with people. But the sessions that we have, The Q&As that we have, the courses that I create, they can answer your individual challenge or structure struggle. They can help you in business, they can help you in negotiation, they can help you in dealing with people, in networking with people.

I put it out for the masses. But as an individual, you can prosper and benefit from it. So yes, I put it right out there. We charge $20 a month for that. $20 go on some of these other platforms. They’re a lot more expensive than that. We’re not trying. I don’t try to do anything to out price myself so that people cannot be involved. It’s the same with my wine. Do you know how many people have come to me, Michael, you should have Italian wine and it should be selling for $100 a bottle. Why? I’m not catering to those people.

Yes, if you enjoy it, you know, come on. But I’m not catering to those people. I’m catering to you. Hopefully you can afford $20 a month and come in and benefit from everything that we have to offer. Michaelfrancis.com family go in, you don’t sign a contract. You try it for one month. If you don’t like it, you’re out. But I believe you’ll benefit from it, you know, so we have to. Because I have to pay people, I have to support people. I have a team that runs that along with me. But we don’t want to overprice or price ourselves out of anything.

You know, that’s just the way it goes. And I want you to understand that there’s always a cost to doing things. You know, do I do things that I don’t talk about on here, that I do for people? Yeah, I do. But I’m not doing it so that people can you know, throw bouquets at me. I do it because this is what I do. I don’t have to announce it, I don’t have to talk about it. But there are a lot of people, you know, that I, that I’ve done things for or continue to do things for.

That’s their personal business and my personal business. I don’t have to announce it on social media. Media. There’s some people now that think everything that you do has to be announced on social media. That’s not the case. Why are you doing it? I’m not doing it for that reason. I’m doing it because that’s where my heart is and that’s what I want to do. So when we put together a platform like the Franzese family, we do it for you. Go on there, take a look. MichaelFranzes.com family take a look. See if it’s for you and if $20 a month is too much for you, then don’t do it.

But take a look. If you think you’re going to benefit, then yes, because I want to help people. I really do. Come on, $20 a month, people, that’s less than you’re going to spend on coffee at Starbucks throughout the month. That’s probably two visits to Starbucks for many people. So, you know, we’re not trying to price anybody out or scare anybody away. We want everybody to be able to benefit from it. We have a lot of members in the there and if you go in and talk to them, they’re thrilled with the service that we’re getting from us.

The education, the information, the entertainment. At times, it’s a special platform. Okay, Chris, thank you very much and thank you from. I have good friends in Germany now that I’m actually working with and I’m really enjoying them. Really great people. Scott Balbus, congratulations. Thank you very much. The UK is okay. Thank you very much. I love the uk. I really do. Patriot from Warsaw. You think Gavin Newsom is bad, you should look into J.B. pritzker, aka the Burgermeister. Yeah, Pritzker is the same thing. He’s a phony. He’s just the anti Trump trying to, you know, he’s going to make a presidential run.

So what do they do? The way to get attention is to be controversial, to go against Trump. Meanwhile, his city is garbage because of him. Not because of the people, it’s the people that suffer. It’s because of him. He wants the grandstand. He wants it to be a sanctuary city. He wants to protect all the migrants. Good, bad, indifferent, he wants to defund the police. He wants to be soft on crime. He’s a phony and he’s a hypocrite, and he doesn’t care about the people. All he’s doing is setting himself up for a presidential run. That’s it.

Okay, Mark Jackson talking to us mooks. Lol. Yeah, that was funny. Can you hear the music? It’s Dean Martin Singh singing in the background. I think my partner Tony has put that on. I hope it’s not interfering in anything. I’m talking loud, so I hope you can hear me. I love. I love Dean Martin. Okay, let’s see, what do we have here? Ryan Brown, thank you very much for your donation. Michael. Fantastic opening prayer at Greg Laurie’s crusade. Thank you very much. It was such a privilege at the Harvest Crusade this past year at Anaheim Stadium, Angel Stadium, I should say.

50,000 plus people, over 6,500 people came to Christ on the field. Amazing. 33 years he’s been doing this. And I gave the opening prayer that night. Greg gave me the honor and the privilege to do that. It was terrific. I watched it with my best friend Andrew, who lead. Who led me to Jesus Christ. Did Greg Scarper Sr. Have a hand in the hit of Joe Colombo, as capiche said? You know what? I don’t know. I don’t know if he did or not. But I would be devastated to know that. And even more upsetting to me is some information that I got from a very reliable source.

And I’m not going to, you know, that people were aware, people in our family were aware of Greg Scarper’s being an informant for over 20 years, and they allowed it to happen. And I’m not going to get into that right now because I. It’s very upsetting. But I don’t know, Ryan, I’ll be honest with you. I would certainly hope not, because I believe it was the FBI that set up Joe Colombo. I don’t believe it was Joe Gallo. As a matter of fact, I’m saying that upon good information, it wasn’t Joe Gallo. I believe it was the FBI that set up a guy that I loved and respected very much.

Okay. All right, let’s go. Any Tough Tony, Tough Tony stories? I love Tough Tony. You know, I knew him very well. I knew his. I used to go to his restaurant in Queens. Really good guy. I don’t have many stories about him other than the fact that we just got along. We didn’t do things together, but we got along very well. I used to go to his restaurant quite a bit. Okay. What are your thoughts on the Alaska summit between Putin and Trump? I think I spoke about that. I think it was a power play on Trump part.

He made him come to Alaska. Alaska was once part of Russia. I think it was a good power play on Trump’s part. I think he’s positioning it well and let’s see how it plays out. I’m going to do a video on this. I’m going to actually film it probably later today. And you’re going to get my full thoughts on Trump and Putin and the European summit of all the European leaders that he held at the White House, which I think was brilliant. Armando Espinoza, what’s your opinion? I think Ukraine is going to end up like Mexico did in Mexican American war.

Ukraine is Mexico and Russia is the United States of America. Well, we’ll see what happens. You know, I’m not too sure about that. Let’s see how it plays out before we make any predictions. But you could be on, you could be on to something. Mark 11, thank you very much for your contribution. Mark from Idaho, Just want to say really enjoy your content. I hope all is well with the family. All is blessed with the family, Mark. And thank you very much for chiming in. And I really appreciate, you know, a donation for saying just that.

Thank you very much. I appreciate that. I hope I get, you know, I hope I get to meet all of you, if not here on earth. I hope I get to meet you in heaven. And I really mean that. And if I could, I’m going to tell you something, people. The Christian in me says this. If I can wave my hand, bring all of you to Christ so that all of you can be meeting me in heaven for all of eternity, I would do that in one second. Every one of you, every single one of you.

I would wave my hand and have all of you accept Christ, confess your sins to the Lord, not to anybody else. To the Lord, confess your sins, accept Christ, and we all get together in heaven. If I don’t make it here with all of you on earth and of course that probably is not going to happen. So that’s my wish, desire and prayer for every single one of you. Okay, Caroline, eh, again, when I went to Italy in 2018, thank you for your donation. The Taxi Driver was playing Dean Martin for me. Laugh out loud. Going again next month to research my grandfather’s home city.

I’m jealous. I wish I would be going with you, but I’m not the sheer. We’re probably going to go to Europe again in October, but we might go to Greece. Greece, maybe Croatia again, Italy next year. My daughter’s getting married in Lake Como next year, so we’re looking forward to that if I don’t get there sooner. But hey, Caroline, have a great time. And Italy is just an amazing place. I love it. I absolutely love it. Okay. Ray Volti. Down with Satan and his demons and and lies. Jesus is king forever. Absolutely my friend. And anyone that wants to honor Jesus on this platform, you’re always welcome.

Who did Sonny Francis say was a real tough guy? There were people that my father respected quite a bit. He never pointed anyone out individually, but he respected a lot of people in that life. Edwin Curious, are there any projects you are working on, games, series, movies, where your experience is being used for authenticity? There are quite a few, actually. I’m doing a couple of documentaries and there is a movie. I keep saying it. And people don’t get frustrated. This industry, to get something from development to a script onto the screen. Not easy. So I know I’ve been telling you that they’re doing a movie on my life.

It’s happening. It really is. And I believe it’s going to happen. I believe you’re going to see that movie. It’s being worked on now for the past 15 months. There was a TV series before that morphed into a movie first and then a TV series to follow, which I think is a good process. I’ll be meeting with the producer and the writer in the next three or four weeks to give final approval on the script. And from that point on, they’re going to start casting. So I think you’re going to start hearing about this. I’m not making the announcement.

The production company will in the next several months. Months. It’s going to happen. It’s taken so long to get it done. I understand that. Don’t get frustrated. That’s the business. It takes sometimes 20, 30 years even for Martin Scorsese to get a project on the screen. That’s just the way it goes. But don’t get frustrated. It’ll happen. Jay Bravo. Mike, first time here on a chat. Love your channel. Jay Bravo, thank you so much. I appreciate that. I really do. All right, YouTube, I’m going to be switching now to Rumble. We have have about 15, 20 minutes left.

TRUMP MAGA. Okay, thank you all for tuning in. You know, I appreciate it very much. Even when I’m not at home or in my studio, I try to, to jump on here and just I like the lives because I get to communicate with all of you. So jumping off of YouTube. Jumping onto rumble. But hey, people on YouTube stay on. And for those of you that are on YouTube now that don’t subscribe, I’m going to ask you to subscribe to me. I really mean it. I appreciate it.

And I hope that you see that when I try to express it. I hope you get that. All right, YouTube. Going over to rumble now. But again, stay on YouTube. Don’t leave. Okay, here we go. Rumbles chat. All right, here we go. Glamour. Glamour Turtle Chris Mesner, you must lead an awfully sad blight if you have to spend time on spam. I don’t think he’s talking to me.

I don’t know who that was, but let’s move on. Oh, yeah, Chris. Faminably. All right. You know, the one thing that gets me on here is the fact that a lot of you start arguing with each other and, you know, I’m not going to tell you what to do. I mean, if you want to do that, you can go back and forth, that’s fine, but that’s up to you. All right, let me see. We have Scott, Hannah, mods, block the spammers. Okay. Juliet of the Spirits. I love Jesus and Mary. Thank you very much. Neurodivergent 1.

Make sure you hit that fox. Follow and smash that thumbs up button. Yeah. On. On Rumble too. We appreciate if you follow us and again, we. Those of you that subscribe, we appreciate it very much. I don’t know how much more I can say, but it is the truth. Pami Poo. No, Italy is where my family’s from. Went there. My great grandma, hotel, restaurant and bar. Great. Are you Italian? American. Yes, I am. Okay. Digi EL777. Thank you very much for your donation. I appreciate it, Michael. At its Peak, over 8,000 Italian residents lived in Lincoln Heights and San Pedro Gato and Cortese.

Families from Cosenza, Calabria and Lukia, Sigula, Sicily settled in Lincoln Heights. That’s good to know. You know, I haven’t seen many Italians out in California. And so it’s good to know that we had a good community of Italians here. Thank you for that information. I appreciate it. Teddy Two Guns. Hi. From Alaska. Thank you. And Teddy Two Guns, again, let’s Keep a light hearted, no arguing. This is a fun zone. Teddy, thank you very much. I would rather, I don’t mind debate, respectful debate, but I would hope that there’s no arguments here and if you can honor that, I appreciate it.

Julie of the Spirits Newberry Library helped me find out. My great grandfather came from the Amalfi coast. Oh, what a beautiful, beautiful place. The Amalfi coast. The people. If you haven’t been to Italy and listen, there’s many, many beautiful places in Europe. I’m not only I’m singling out Italy because I’m Italian and I love it, but hey, Croatia, magnificent. I love, I happen to love the United Kingdom, you know, Turkey, beautiful Bulgaria. I love visiting Bulgaria. The people were wonderful. Spain, amazing. France, I love France. You know, all of these places are just beautiful. Europe is a beautiful, beautiful continent.

I’ve been to Japan, love Japan, love the Japanese people. I’ve been to Singapore, loved it. Love Malaysia. Australia, amazing. We have wonderful people all over this planet. I’m telling you, it’s not the people that cause divisiveness and ruin this. It’s leadership. Leadership that have their own agenda, that want to maintain power, that want to make money. It’s leadership that causes all the divisiveness on this planet. It’s not the people. And if leadership would set a good example, you’d see a lot better place on this planet. A lot happier place. It’s leadership and it’s power mongers. It’s greed.

That’s all it is. I’m telling you, I’ve seen it. I’ve been part of a life that was the same way in many respects but better than most people in government. I’m telling you. I know I’m going to get criticized for that. I’m telling you this. The worst people are people in government power hungry, mistrustworthy people. Bad people. Bad people who abuse the privilege that they’ve been given by the people that elected them. They abuse it and they abuse it constantly. And it sickens me, quite honestly, it sickens me. You are given a position of privilege and trust and you abuse the people that put you there and use it for your own personal agenda.

Because you’re greedy, you’re power hungry and all you want to do is accumulate wealth and stay in power. And that’s true of so many of our politicians today on both sides of the aisle. But unfortunately it’s the Democrats match, it’s the progressives that show it more. That’s the problem by going against everything and anything that Trump talks about even when it’s for the good of the people. They’re sickening. They make me sick. And I’m not going to go into a rant, I promise my wife now. But truthfully, these people make me sick. If they were on the street, we would deal with them, let me tell you.

Okay, Teddy Two Guns. I don’t believe in God or anything and despise religion, but I’m a huge fan of you really live by what they say. Teddy. It saddens me to hear that. I wish I could have a one one for you because not believing in God is a rough way to live your life, my friend. I really mean it. And look, I don’t dislike you for it. I wish I can meet with you one on one or talk you through it. Teddy, I’m going to tell you something. If you go on my platform, my school platform, michaelfrancis.com family and you get in touch with Caleb and I’ll put the word out, you don’t have to pay the first month.

I’m saying this to you, but I want the opportunity to talk to you one on one. And I really mean that only because I want you to be more fulfilled in life. And I’m not saying you’re not. You might be the happiest person in the world, I don’t know. But there’s life beyond this earth. There is life beyond the life that we live now. I believe that with all my heart or I wouldn’t be saying this to you. And I have nothing to gain in this other than this is my obligation and responsibility. I have nothing to gain.

But if you go on that platform and I have an opportunity to talk to you, it would be helpful. I really mean that. And you make your own decision from that point on. But you go on, you reach out to Caleb. I’ll tell Caleb. Also, I don’t know what your name is, but we’ll say mention Teddy 2 guns and I’m going to make you this offer that you shouldn’t refuse and let’s spend some time together one on one. Maybe one phone call. And I want you to know something too. I don’t like the word religion. Religion is a term that turns people off.

I don’t consider myself a religious person. Person I’m not. I’m a person of faith built on knowledge and experience and evidence. That’s who I am. I’m a person of faith built upon experience, evidence and knowledge. And that’s what I’d share with you. Not a religious person. I’m not going to tell you to take the Ten Commandments and start figuring out how to, you know, live by them. I’m not going to do that. That’s religious. That’s, that’s legalistic. That’s not who I am. But I’m making you that offer. Teddy, two guns. Go on. Friends. Michaelfrancis.com family come on my platform, talk to Caleb.

And I’m waiving the $20 for the first month. If you believe in it, stay. If you don’t. It was my privilege to be able to speak to you and share what I want to share with you. How’s that? Okay, we’ll see if you take me up on it. And anyway, thank you for being on the platform. I appreciate it. If there was m Sauerkraut. I love sauerkraut on hot dogs, man. I can’t help it if there was ever any question. If you looked at your chat, it was answered today. Thank you for your work. Appreciate that very much.

I’m not sure what you’re referring to, but I’m glad I’ve done that. Mrs. Whatley. Alaska and Alabama in the house. Well, thank you very much, Mrs. Whatley. Hi. From Alabama. Are you. You’re from Alabama and living in Alaska right now? I was recently in Alabama, so I, I love that state. Got a lot of friends there and I love Alaska, too. I’ve been there, enjoyed. It’s a beautiful country, beautiful state. Okay, let me see who we have here. Let me go up the ladder. Cracking joker jokes on them. The crowd waiting in the parking lot got saved, too.

I’m not sure what you’re referring to, but if they got saved because they believe in our Lord, that’s great. Let me see where we go from here. Have too many more comments. Diggyl diggyl777 thank you for your donation, Diggy. Michael, I hate, I despise your religious festivals. Your assemblies are a stench to me. Amos 5:21. God hates religion. So do I, absolutely. Because religious people, truly religious people, not people who just say they’re religious because they really are people of faith. And that’s the way they express it, by saying they’re religious. I’m not talking to them.

But religious people that are legalistic and claim to be religious and better than everyone else, I don’t like that either. And God doesn’t like that either. As a matter of fact, God turns people like that away because they’re being religious, being. They’re being religious as a show to other people, to Try to show off to other people that they’re, you know, that they’re wonderful people or whatever. God despises that too. Thank you so much for that, Diggy. I really appreciate it. Okay, who else do we have here? Scott, Hannah, Juliet. I’m thinking it’s a bot, since it doesn’t make sense.

I’m not sure who you’re referring to. Teddy Two Guns. I grew up in the South. I been around religion my whole life and God people. I live in Alaska where I hunt and fish. And that’s my religion. Just being in nature. Hey, that’s good. You know what? That’s good. If your religion is being part of nature, that’s great. It shouldn’t be your belief, though. You don’t believe in nature as a savior. You just enjoy it. You appreciate it. You love it. Where did it come from? How did it get here? Is there really a creator? Can you explain how all of this got here? Do you think there was some little speck in outer space when no speck really existed and outer space never existed, and all of a sudden it exploded in some big bang and what did it explode into? Everything.

Does that make sense? A speck that we don’t know how it got there, that never was there to begin with in a universe that never was there to begin with, all of a sudden appeared out of nowhere without a creator and exploded into everything that makes no sense. No sense whatsoever. I’m not going to get into the faith based part of it right now, but come on, jump on my platform. Michaelfrancise.com family all right. Okay. There’s a lot of back and forth going on here, so I think I’ve responded to everybody on Rumble at this point.

Pampi Poo, your love for the Lord is real. You really showed me today. You are where you are today because God is using you. May he continue to bless you people. I want to tell you something and I’m going to be really honest with all of you like I always am. If it wasn’t for my belief in God and God having a different plan, plan and a purpose for me in my life, I’d either be dead or in prison for the rest of my life. That’s what I deserved and that’s what I earned. 20 years on the street.

I was a criminal. I was a criminal. God had a different plan and a purpose for my life. God put my wife in my life. There’s no question about it. Change the direction of my life saved my life. I believe that with all my heart. And I wouldn’t say this to you if I didn’t. I’m not going to mislead you. If I believed that my faith was nonsense, I would tell you, or I would shut up and say nothing. There’s no question in my mind that God had a different plan and a purpose for my life and people.

I want to tell you something. I’m not an idiot. I’m not a. You know, people accuse me of having, you know, being in Trump’s pocket. That’s such. It’s an insult. It’s such nonsense. Let me tell you something. If Donald Trump did something wrong, I would call him out in a second. I don’t like his tweets. Sometimes I don’t like the way he argues with people. Sometimes I think that’s beneath him. He should always be presidential. He shouldn’t be calling people names and things like that, whether he believes it or not, let other people do it. He doesn’t need to do it.

He needs to be a unified and he is a unifier. But then he goes off on tangents that I wish he wouldn’t do. And if I was able to sit down and advise Donald Trump, I’d say, donald, you’re doing a good job as president. Okay? You don’t need to be divisive in any way, shape or form. Let other people do it. You got plenty of other people. You have to always be a unifier. When Nancy Pelosi or Elizabeth Warren or any of those people make stupid, dumb, unflattered, flattering remarks to you, let it go over your head.

Be a unifier. You know, talk to them and say, listen, we want to unify the United States. If you don’t believe in a policy that I’m having, let’s sit down and talk about it. Let’s get behind closed doors and tell me why you disbelieve in this policy, and let’s put a united front out to the people so that we can help them. That’s what we need to do. All this divisiveness is not helping people. It’s not helping the United States. We need to bring people together. Unity is power. Divisiveness is chaos. Remember what I’m saying. Unity is power.

Divisiveness is chaos. Even when you unify for a bad reason, it’s powerful. Of course it’s misleading, bringing people down the wrong path. Unity, for good purposes, is power. It’s good for the people. And if Donald would do that, I think it would be better off. But for those of you that Accused me of being in Donald’s pocket. Come on, that’s just childish. It’s immature. It’s juvenile. I’m in nobody’s pocket. I’m in God’s pocket because I believe in him with all my heart. And if I didn’t, I wouldn’t tell any of you this. I wouldn’t mislead you in any way, shape or form, and I really mean that.

And I hope you take me at my word. And if you see me doing different, tell me. You can call me out on something, but be honest about it and be factual about it. Don’t just say it because maybe you don’t like me or you don’t like me because I happen to believe in Trump’s policies. It’s all about. It’s about policies. What’s good for America, what’s good for the people, what’s good for my family. That’s what I care about. I’m sorry. You know, people sometimes call me out about Trump. Oh, you’re. No, I’m for Trump because he’s for two genders, male and female.

I’m Trump because he believes in marriages between a man and a woman. I’m for Trump because he’s pro life. I’m for Trump because he wants secure borders. That’s it. If I didn’t agree with those policies, I’d say it. People ask me about the tariffs. Am I pro Trump with. I don’t know. I don’t know if tariffs was a good idea. I’m not at that level politically. But you know what I said, hey, he’s my president. Let’s give him a shot. Let’s see what happens. I want to support what he’s doing until I don’t support it. And if I thought it was hurting the American people, I’d be the first one to say it.

We’ll see. It doesn’t seem to be doing that much damage yet. Maybe in the long run, he’s going to be right. I don’t know. I’m being honest about it. Okay? But so far, America isn’t falling as a result of these tariffs, so I don’t know. We’ll see. He’s a business guy. I give him the benefit of the doubt at this point that he knows what he’s talking about. But if he’s wrong, I’ll call him out. Come on. Not in anybody’s pocket. It’s just ridiculous because you believe in policies that somebody is bringing forward that you think are going to benefit the country.

Come on. But I’m telling you all right now, yes, I am not a perfect Christian. I am still a sinner. I am better than I was throughout my life. But I still fall at times. I don’t curse on social media, but once in a while I’ll say a couple of curse words. Once in a while I’ll get thoughts like. Like the old days. And I’m being honest with you people. I’m being very, very honest with you. If I could defraud the government out of tax on every gallon of gasoline and not get caught, I might do it again.

I might be tempted to do it again. Why won’t I do it? Because I don’t want to go to jail. Because I’ll hurt my family and I don’t want to do the wrong thing. Do I think it’s immoral to defraud the government out of tax? No, I don’t. I’m sorry. God may say, come on, Mike, I’m telling you the truth. I don’t think it’s immoral because I think the government is the biggest thieves in the world. They steal our money all the time. So I’m stealing. I’m Robin Hood. I’m stealing from a thief. So morally I don’t have a problem with it.

Now maybe. Come on, Mike, what kind of Christian are you? I don’t know. Maybe you can say I’m a bad Christian because of that. But here’s the difference. I won’t do it. I won’t do it because I’m not going to put myself or my family in trouble. So that’s the difference. That’s what the Lord does for you. He gives you a moral compass and a foundation to say no, no, no, no, no. Whether you believe it or not, you can’t do it and you don’t do it. That’s the difference, people. Okay, so. But do I believe that God had a different plan and a purpose for me? Absolutely.

It’s quite a evident. You ever think I was going to be a speaker giving my Testimony in almost 2000 appearances in the last 30 some odd years? Of course not. Never had that plan. I was going to write a book about my life. Never had that plan. I was going to be speaking at churches, speaking in juvenile halls, speaking in prisons, speaking to corporate America, speaking to pro athletes about the dangers of. Of gambling, when at one time I had them gambling with me. Speaking of college students, over 300 universities telling them not to gamble and make sure you stay away from people in organized crime.

You think I was ever gonna thinking about Doing that? No, never. God had a different plan and a purpose for my life. It’s obvious and evident. I’m sorry, people, but I believe it. Why do I follow Jesus Christ? Because Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus of Nazareth, in my belief, and I think I’m 100%, is the greatest man that ever walked the face of the earth in every facet of his character. He was the only true man’s man that ever walked the face of the earth. He’s the only man that anybody should try to emulate. That’s it. There’s nobody else.

You want to be the. The best possible individual person that you could be. You emulate the character of Jesus of Nazareth. Notice I’m not saying Jesus Christ because I do believe he’s the Son of God. No question. Because I do believe he lived. There’s no question that he died. He was nailed to a cross. And I believe powerfully in the resurrection. Powerfully. The evidence is there, so why would I not follow him? I also believe that the only way to get to heaven is through Jesus Christ. That’s not being arrogant. That’s just what I believe. I’m not calling you out for not believing that.

No, I’m not. If you’re. You have a free will. You can believe anything you choose to believe. I don’t call out people for other faiths, other than if you’re a Satanist, because that’s evil. But I don’t call out a Jew. I don’t call out a Buddhist. I don’t call out a Muslim. I don’t call out a Hindu, the Hindu. I don’t call those people out. They have a free choice to believe what they choose to believe. They’re not bad people because they don’t believe what I believe. I do feel for them because I do believe the only way to get to heaven is through accepting Jesus Christ.

I believe that. I’m sorry. I mean, I can’t apologize for that. But because I disagree with your belief, I don’t call you a bad person. I don’t call you out because of it. I would love to be able to bring you to my side because I believe you’re going to be saved at that point. But that’s it. That’s my only motive. You don’t get paid according to how many people come to Christ throughout your lifetime. There’s no pay for that. All right? It’s doing what you’re obligated to do as a Christian. To share. To share the good word, which is Jesus Christ.

Not to impose, not to criticize, not to harass. No, you don’t do that. You share. And then it’s up to that person, accept it or not. That’s it. So people, that and legalistic Christians out there, I’m calling you out. You’re no better than anybody else. You just happen to be saved. You’re not better. You’re not. You’re not a better person than a Muslim. You’re not a better person than an atheist. You’re not a better person than a. Than a Buddhist or anything else. You’re not better because you’re a Christian. No, you’re not. You’re just blessed. You’re saved.

You’re not better. Remember that. And those legalistic Christians that want to talk down on people because they think, oh, I’m a Christian. No, you’re not. You just happen to be blessed. You should get on your knees every day and thank God that you’ve come to Christ. Don’t be knocking other people unless they’re a Satanist. Then you can knock them because they’re deceiving people and they’re honoring the devil, which is bad. And there is a devil, there is Satan, there are demons. Okay, I got off on something, but I can’t help it. And people, I’m not preaching.

I’m sharing what I believe with all my heart. And let me tell you something. The day that I mislead you, God will condemn me for you. Look, any Christian that is misleading to people, that is legalistic. Don’t worry about it. Don’t worry. God will deal with them. Trust me on that. God will deal with those people. Remember how Jesus called out the Pharisees, the hypocrites, when they claimed to be so religious, so loyal, legalistic, they were putting on a show for the people that they were holier than thou. And Jesus looked at them to their face and said, hypocrites, hypocrites.

Call them out. So don’t ever worry when you see a hypocritical. Christians feel bad for them because there’s no greater wrath than God when you’re trying to use God for your own benefit. For those people out there that try to knock me and say he’s using God to make money. God, don’t worry about it. God will deal with me. No question. More harsh than anybody else because God despises that. So don’t worry about it. You see a Christian that’s legalistic and think he’s better than anybody else, feel bad for him. That’s all I can tell you.

Pity him. Feel bad for him. God will deal with him. Trust me on that. So, you know, I have to read some. Okay, I’m still on. This is Steven Zenim. Steven Zim rather. Jesus had 12 legions of angels ready to draw swords of fire and brimstone. Oh, my. That would have been shock and awe. But he loved us enough to break the empire of evil. Absolutely. People, look, you know what? Just do this for me. Do this for me. Go to the New Testament. God. I mean, the New Testament. Go to the New Testament and read about Jesus of Nazareth.

Read about this man and think about it. Was he courageous? Was he wise? Was he loving? Was he generous? Was he strong? Look at him and think of all the emotions. Think of all the things that you would want to be in your life. You want to be courageous, you want to be strong, you want to be loving, you want to be giving, you want to be wise, you want all those. You want to be forgiving. Think of all those things that are great characteristics of anybody. And when you read the New Testament gospels of Jesus, look at him as a man and say, well, was he? All of that and more.

And then say, hey, wouldn’t you want to be that person? Wouldn’t you want to sacrifice yourself for the benefit of others if you could, of course you would. Now listen, none of us are courageous enough to die on a cross. I know I’m not. I’m not. And I consider myself a man. I’m not running to the cross for other people. I’m being honest. I don’t know that I would do that. I’m not 1% of what Jesus was as a man, but, man, I wish I was. I would love to be that person. I could never be that person.

Being honest, would I sacrifice my life for people I love? Damn right I would. Would I take a bullet for my wife, my children, my grandchildren? Yes, I would. No hesitation whatsoever, people. I’m not saying anything heroic. Most men out there who love their families would do the exact same. So I’m not saying anything that’s heroic. This is who a man is. We love our families. We’ll take a bullet for him, Period. End of story. Would I do it for my next door neighbor? Possibly. If I saw somebody being abused in the street, would I jump in and help? Yeah, I would.

I have. So I can say that. Never mind when you ask me how or when, it’s not important, but yeah, I would run to the aid of somebody that I think was being abused, especially a woman or a child. Without. Without a doubt but you know, I’m no. I’m no Jesus of Nazareth. I can tell you that right now. None of us are. But what I want to be. Hell, yeah. Hell, yeah. Just read the Gospels and say, what do I have to lose by trying to emulate this man and believing in him? What do I have to lose throughout my life? I’ll be a better person, better in every respect.

And if he’s really the Savior of the world like I know he is, well, then I got all of heaven to gain. I got off on this because the Holy Spirit inspired me to. I wasn’t planning on this, people. But I have to say it. You know, I have to say it because I believe it with all my heart. And I would never, ever mislead you. Never. I’m not asking you to give me a donation because I’m preaching to you. No, your donation to me is listening and saying, you know what? Maybe I will pay attention.

Maybe I’ll give it a shot. What do I have to lose? Let me open the Gospel. Let me open them and look at it. What do I have to lose? Maybe at that point, the Holy Spirit will inspire you and say, hey, you know what? There is something to this. There is something to this. That’s how the Holy Spirit works. Give him a chance. And if you reject it, you reject it. What could I tell you? I can tell you this. Everything to gain and nothing to lose. What odds do you want for that? When you have everything to gain by taking a risk and nothing to lose? There’s no better odds on the planet.

Everything to gain, nothing to lose. Everything to gain by reading the Gospels. Nothing to lose. Everything to gain by emulating Jesus. Nothing to lose. What do you got to lose? How could you not take a risk like that? Come on. All right, I’ve taken you a little longer. It’s here in puerto Vallarta. It’s 11:15. So we’ve been on about an hour and 15 minutes. I’m going to just jump back on YouTube for a minute, so don’t get mad at me. Okay? Plastic. Because some people now are talking about the Lord. Oh, I. I’ve got to answer a couple of these.

I’m sorry. Archangel Michael, known as St. Michael in Christianity, is a prominent archangel in Judaism, Christianity, Islam, symbolizing divine protection, justice and spirit, spiritual warfare against evil. Great. To point that out. Plastic. Thank you. And yes, there are angels, there are demons and there are angels, and there are archangels. And Michael is one of them. Yes. And Lucifer, Satan is the fallen angel. That’s the devil. That’s the truth. I believe that with all my heart, based upon evidence, knowledge, experience. Okay, I have to respond to a couple of these two. Timothy timothyev I hope I got it right.

Thank you for your donation, my friend. Happy birthday to your dear wife. Thank you so much for that. And Michael, does the Lord really forgive those who can’t forgive themselves? Ask me for myself. Yes, he does. The Lord forgives all those who genuinely and sincerely ask for forgiveness. Yes, he does. I believe that with all my heart. I would not say that to you because I would be condemned if I said something to you that was misleading based upon Scripture, based upon the very direct message from God himself. Yes. If you confess your sins to Jesus, to God, confess your sins, you are forgiven.

You can’t pull a scam on God. You can’t do it because you’re just doing it. You got to mean it. And you know what? At that point, God will help you forgive yourself because all of us are sinners. Every single one of us are sinners. And if God can forgive you, then you can forgive yourself. And maybe you do it in reverse. You say, you know what? And maybe it’s a better way, God forgive me because you still have guilt for what you’ve done in the past. God forgive me and mean it. And God help me, help me to deal with this so I can move on in my life and maybe be productive and get over this, this guilt that I hold.

Do you think that it was easy for me to Forgive myself for 20 years I put in on the street? No, it wasn’t. But I believe with all my heart, based upon scripture, based upon knowledge, experience, evidence, that God forgives those that sincerely come to him and ask for forgiveness. So please ask the Lord for forgiveness. He will forgive you. And then the second part of it, if you want all of eternity to gain, accept Jesus Christ as your savior. It’s a two part thing here. One will come after the other. Because if you ask God for forgiveness and you start to feel the Holy Spirit working through you, then you’re going to accept Christ and then you got all of eternity.

Thank you so much for that. Timothy. Yes. I can’t stress it enough. God will forgive you no matter what you’ve done in your life. I know that’s a hard concept. I know it’s hard. But that’s a loving, merciful God that we, that we serve, who loves us, who doesn’t want to see anybody go to hell, even the worst of us, because hell is a million times worse. Than anything you can ever see on this earth. He doesn’t want anybody to go there. So, yes, he will forgive you. I can’t stress it enough. Timothy, please take my word for it and then do the research and God will convince you of that.

Mr. Beard, thank you so much. Very generous of you. Mr. Beard. We Muslims respect Christians and Jews. Many religious people argue for the sake of winning an argument and not to make other people convert to their religion, which is quite sad. You’re absolutely right. I have the deepest respect for Muslims. I absolutely do. We disagree on one point. Muslims believe that Jesus is a prophet. They believe in Jesus. They believe he lived and died. They believe he’s a prophet. I don’t believe they. I don’t think they necessarily believe he’s the son of God and the savior of the world.

That’s what we disagree. But I respect Muslims are so disciplined in their faith. And don’t. Don’t lump all Muslim and Islam into radical Islamists. That’s not fair and it’s not real and it’s not true. My only prayer for all Muslims and for all people on the face of the earth is that they come priced. That’s it. And they accept Jesus as the savior of the world. Because in my view, in my belief, based upon evidence, knowledge, experience, that’s how you go to heaven, by accepting Jesus Christ. So my prayer for all. I don’t knock your faith.

I don’t think you’re. You know, I don’t. I’m not better than you because I believe in Christ. I just happen to be blessed. But my prayer for all of you Muslims, Jews, Islam, any. Any nationality, atheists, whatever, my prayer for you is that you accept Christ. That’s it. That’s it. Because then I know we’ll be together in heaven. I only want the best for you. That’s it. I want you to enjoy, you know, the blessing of heaven for all of eternity. So that’s my prayer. That’s it. I’m not better than you. Not at all. I’m not trying to convince you.

I’m sharing what I believe. That’s it. Okay, Mr. Beard, thank you very much. I mean that. Okay, wise guy. California. Thank you, sir, for your generous donation. You should consider interviewing Michael Knowles. I have considered that, and that may happen, but thank you for that. Okay. All right. I think we got to just about everybody. All right, people, time to sign off. Sylvia rathbomb. Michael. In 2023, we moved to Tucson, Arizona. Packed up and moved. Thank you. By the way, Sammy Gabano. Did reach out to me. He will be on my platform. Platform. Sammy and I are going to get together.

I’ve never had Sammy on my platform. He was gracious enough to have me on his. And Sammy’s going to be on my platform. He’s coming to visit me on in September and we’ll be putting it up on YouTube and it’s going to be a very interesting conversation. I happen to like Sammy and his family very much. He has converted to Christianity. He did get baptized. I do believe it’s real. Some people say, oh, come on, Michael. He still rough around the edges. We all are. So what? That doesn’t diminish his belief. You know, you don’t become perfect when you accept Christ.

Trust me, none of us are perfect. I’m certainly not. And I respect the fact that Sammy was baptized and now his newfound belief in Jesus and I’m so grateful for it. I really mean that. He has a great family. Sammy’s a good, you know, he’s got a great family and you know, in his heart he’s a good person. Forget the past. We all did our thing back then. You can reform in life. You can change. Okay, I’m telling you that I know it’s hard for some people to believe. You got a lot of haters out there.

You know, most of the haters, they don’t have the love of Christ in them. What can I tell you? All right, people, so I’m going to wrap it up. Cult classic. Let me just respond because there is a donation. I’m looking. Thank you for being fair about your faith. Some Christians do so much to turn people away. I totally agree with you. Legalistic Christians turn people off. They turn me off. Legalistic Christians think they’re better than everybody else. It’s a turn off. And you know what? They’ll pay for it in the end. I’m not judging them.

I’m just saying if that’s their true, you know, thinking that they’re better than anybody else because they’re followers of Christ. They’re not better. They’re more blessed. They happen to be saved. Don’t throw your chest out and think you’re better than anybody. Christians aren’t better than anybody else. They’re not. They’re saved. And maybe they’re. Maybe they act better because they got the love of God in their hearts. They act better. They’re not better than anybody else. I’m sorry, Christians, you don’t like that? You heard it from me, Michael Rondo. Exactly. They even had a witness Come forward.

I was told. I feel that they have served their time. They have done great things. He’s talking about the Menendez brothers. Yeah, I believe that, too. But, you know, life is what it is. Consequences to our actions. Sometimes they just last and they continue. Maybe, maybe it’s their fate to remain in prison. You know, who knows? Hi, Michael. I saw you at the court. This is Sylvia Rathburn. I saw you at the cause church a couple of years ago. You signed my book you were selling. I still have it. Thank you very much. Hope you enjoyed the read, Sylvia.
