I said, this is going to sound odd, but I said, I just live here. She goes, you did.
Starting point is 00:00:42 She goes, who's your dad? And I told her. She goes, my stepfather. She said, I bought this house from him. And now we're just standing there as awkward and she goes, bad things happen here, didn't they son? He put me in a vehicle and drove me to an abandoned house. When we walked in, there was another fella.
Starting point is 00:01:14 There was a hole cut through the wood floor. And then a dirt hole. I was seven years old, people who don't understand it. You don't run, you don't tell, and I'm looking at the hole and trust me enough stuff had happened, or I thought this is the day they's just gonna kill me. With everything you've been through as a child, when did God come into your life? your life. You guys are saving kids all over the world now. Yeah, you know, just this morning I we were talking about you are going into ISIS Islamic State territory and saving kids, you know, and so how did it develop from a
Starting point is 00:02:09 Maybe not from maybe in addition to a ministry. Yep. How did it come from being a Ministry for kids in prison to going overseas in Iraq Syria wherever you go. Yeah. How many places have he gone? How many countries?
Starting point is 00:02:30 Gosh, I think I'm actually, I've never counted. But I was kind of looking at it. We're probably 30 countries. 30 countries. Yeah. Can you rattle a couple off? Oh, yeah, from Iraq, doing work in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, to the forest and Burma, Miramar, you know Thailand, Cambodia
Starting point is 00:03:19 The US everywhere, but then Mexico, Panama, Guatemala down America. Yeah Columbia And there are there definitely other places that we're Tunisia, Northern Africa, Southern Africa. I mean, there's a lot and it's like we we've never really paused We keep analytics and you know, one of our what are our outcomes because impacts matter but outcomes. But we've just, we had somebody tell us, you know, a couple of years ago, it was like, do y'all celebrate your wins? I'm like, yeah, by going after another one. Yeah, we don't, our tempo,
Starting point is 00:04:02 we don't need to pause for however long and just kind of, because there's more, there's always more. You know, I don't think anybody that's doing things for a higher purpose celebrates their wins. The only people I see celebrate in their wins are athletes, which is essentially for nothing. Yeah. It's entertainment.
Starting point is 00:04:21 Yeah, I mean, and, you know, transparent, personally, I don't even focus on the kids we've helped. I just, I think about the ones we did. There's no time for celebrating when the shit's for real. Man, that's board people or funky organizations. You know, it's like, how do you have time to do all that? I mean, I give you a perfect example. I mean, last month, we have some guests come to the training center.
Starting point is 00:05:02 They pull up their fifth well. They do married stuff. we're visiting with them. They're going to stay, you know, week and, you know, they see me out in the yard with my dogs or drinking coffee on the deck. And then I go up to them one afternoon and I said, Hey, I just didn't let y'all know. I mean, tonight, we have to go somewhere for a couple of days. We'll be back, just help yourself out and stuff, whatever.
Starting point is 00:05:32 And then we come back and they were talking to them and they're like, because they were on the podcast and they go, can we just say something? Like sure, they go, they go, hey folks, maybe sometimes you think what's being posted or on their website is sensationalized, they go, because it doesn't sound real sometimes. And it makes you, she goes, we're here, visiting with them and they tell us they have to go do something
Starting point is 00:06:06 They'll be back in a couple of few days. They leave the country They go rescue a girl they bring her back and she's here In their safe house on the property. It was a matter and they're like You and it was just you two. None of the other team got involved. I said, well, we had a jet waiting. And team set up stuff, but it was a two person team.
Starting point is 00:06:35 It was the best fit for us to go. And they were just like, yo, act like this is normal. Like nothing. You just went grocery shopping your back. There's no, I go, and I'm a wife where I go. Is it that normal to us? And even a couple of staff are laughing. They're like, yeah, this is, this is their norm.
Starting point is 00:07:03 They don't go, woo, yeah. It's like, okay, this is, this is their norm. They don't go, woo, yeah. It's like, okay, now next step. And it's part of our life, it's part of our tempo. But, and there's more coming. Man, let's go through, let's get specific because I don't, you're not conveying You're not conveying the danger and the sacrifice and the horrific stuff that you're witnessing. I want to bring that out. So let's go into, let's just talk about some of the safe houses and some of the stuff
Starting point is 00:07:43 that you've seen when saving kids from ISIS prison camps. Yeah. Well, let's talk about the whole mission planning cycle. Like, what is step one? Where do you get your intelligence from? We have an incredible network. I'll say that first and foremost.
Starting point is 00:08:02 It's like any intelligence group, it's a network. And it's trusted and it's very accurate. Give an example, there was a gentleman in Iraq that wanted to meet with me. He is an influencer to about 300 million Muslims. We call him the professor. And there were people in lead agencies and all the top eights said, no one can get a meeting with this guy.
Starting point is 00:08:39 He wants to meet with you. I was like, I, the guy, you know, and just so people know we've never taken any money or resources from our government or any government. Have we relayed information that helped in certain situations? Absolutely. And, you know, have they helped us? I'll give you a great example. So this guy, he wants to meet with me. I said, why does he want to meet with me? They said, he's watched you for two years. And he says, you actually care about the kids. And this guy, Albaq Daddy asked him to be their spiritual leader. So maybe that's going to put in perspective for some people. But no one could get a meeting with them.
Starting point is 00:09:39 And he's from Fallujah. And, you know, super influential. So we flew in, it was a 72 hour mission. We was down and up 72 hours out of the country. And we had to be our own QRF, we have to be our own Maddox. We're totally self-contained on QRF, we have to be our own Maddox. We're totally self-contained, which means if things go sideways, we will not rely on anybody to get us, and we wouldn't put anybody in homes way. How many guys are on, how many people are on a team with you? It depends on what specific to the mission.
Starting point is 00:10:21 Okay. We've done two to 20. Okay. And but again layered and redundancy for who, what, when, how? And I had a security, um, Rocky, one were there, but also works with FBI, agency work, and it never charged me a penny. I've offered, he's like, no way. And he actually became American citizen. Esquire Magazine did an article on him, said he was the most wanted man by terrorists in the world. So kept his face and name out of it. And he was with the unit for a long time.
Starting point is 00:11:10 And he still does stuff. So, as a matter of fact, I'm looking at, you know, just a side note. When we started going over there and hammering out, because we, in the last eight years, been there 17 times So 17 pumps into wherever for whatever we're doing
Starting point is 00:11:31 Over a hundred missions complete Would trauma care or help over 45,000 one-minute children? Wow Yeah, and right into ISIS confinement camps I'll haul with my wife, leading a team in. But I had a security. The stuff we were doing, he was blown away, especially because he helped set up that meeting with the professor and he goes,
Starting point is 00:12:04 Victor, I want you to have this. And he wants to give me, as I call, his AK, that they pulled off of him, you know, when he got his feelings hurt. And he goes, this is mine, but I want you to have it because you're here doing this stuff. And I was like, thank you, I'm honored, I said, but I've got my own,
Starting point is 00:12:26 it's tricked out to me and I'm thinking that thing, me has some juju on it, man, I'm not, and he goes, but let me at least give you drums. I said, why drums? He goes, don't ever ask or make the power of just force and loud. He goes, I just hate slow. We're laughing. But we we kind of downplay always The risk of the we ask for prayers, but we don't expect people to understand what we've done or what we do because I mean, can you, they don't have a basis for it. That's why I'm trying to draw it out of you. Yeah. They need to hear it. Yeah. So what compels us is a love for kids. And this professor met with us. And you know, the first question
Starting point is 00:13:27 I asked him, we're sitting down like this. And, you know, I had, and we're, I'm using a turp. And I said, it was with Delta. And I said, um, ask me if he wants to cut my head off. And I mean, this is right when people watching on own TV. He goes, boss, I don't think that's a good idea. I said, ask him. And he wants to cure the guys. And some guys, you may know, because they were part of stuff. They're like, oh, no, he's going to get us killed. But that's really, I said, I have to be authentic to who I am. And if God called me to meet this guy, I want to... So he asked him, he starts laughing. He's like, why would...
Starting point is 00:14:11 Why would I want to cut your head off? You're my guest. I'm bringing you here. And that's when he ran away. We've watched you for two years. You care about a children. You're not here for military gain, oil, money. You have a pure mission. So he goes, I'm here to help you. How can I help you? Well, I said, well, you can teach me about his long. I want to send the customs on. He says, have you ever been to a mosque for worship. I said, no, he's, let's go tonight. And we left that secure place for
Starting point is 00:14:47 if we were, went into a mosque, huge. And, and he was like, you really believe what you believe. I said, yeah, he goes, you're what we call a man of the book. he goes, you're what we call a man of the book. And I said, well, I just try to live my faith best I can. Do you know because of that act of faith and trusting him? No, yeah, we could get smoked wrapped up like that. There's no way we could withstand any type of coordinated attack.
Starting point is 00:15:22 And they're gonna get us. He took me to an abandoned place where Christians, this is when ISIS had just hit, when Christians had fled, Kera Ghosh, Humbaniah. And he brings me there the next day with my team. He goes, these are Christians, these are your people. Help them. He goes your people. Help them.
Starting point is 00:15:45 He goes, because this is wrong. I'm like, I will help them. We end up getting all of them out of the country. How many of them are there? Guys, there was like 45 in that group. And it's, as you all know, that's not a small thing to move people to a different country to get them safe and away. And I mean, there were families and kids, tons of children.
Starting point is 00:16:17 And then he was, that belt of relationship with and it's not just Christian kids, is Muslim children, it's kids of ISIS. Well, I'll never not help a kid. Yazidis, Kurds, it doesn't matter. And I said, children always the one that pay the biggest price for adults and mistakes. So I don't think I've ever said this, but I almost say, we had many meetings, many times I've gone, we were meeting, we were sitting having tea one time
Starting point is 00:17:05 and he goes, Victor, you know, the name he'd call me, he goes, I like to tell you something. I said, oh, okay, Professor, he leans forward. I lean forward, he goes, would you like to know where an ISIS training camp is? A dash, training camp. My pause and I said, if you tell me this, what do you want me to do with that information? Because that's going to determine if I want to hear it or not. And he goes, kill him, kill all of them. I said, so help me understand this. I know you rejected them wanting you to lead them spiritually. I know how like daddy I said, but now you want a training camp and these guys be wiped out. He said, yes,
Starting point is 00:18:07 I said, why? He goes because they're a virus. They are a virus, even to Muslims. And he goes, I have the coordinates and it's active right now. I said, well, I've got friends that are very good what they do. I'm sure we can take care of that and we did. So there's been a number of things like that happen where how did it get taken care of? The information went to another group that The US organized a strike. Yep
Starting point is 00:18:56 There was another time I got a call and I'm like It's from a friend of mine Dave you bankbank. And if you've never heard of Met Dave Ubank, I would tell people watch their movie, it's a documentary. You can stream it tonight, and it's called Freeber Marangers. And if you want to see what we were involved in, that is the documentary to watch. And although it's about Dave and his teams
Starting point is 00:19:23 of high risk missionaries and his family, I brought Dave in and then funded and equipped and, you know, he's, it's unreal. To me, it's a beautiful depiction of Christian faith and on the front lines, behind the lines of courage and sacrifice. So, yeah, with Dave, he calls him and he's like, help, we need help. I said, where are y'all? They were on a front line getting women and children out of a position. And he goes, we just, we just got attacked by ISIS. And he was with at the time, Peshmarga. And no Americans.
Starting point is 00:20:18 It's just them doing this. And I said, you know, how many are there? He goes, I, he goes, I'm, I'm guessing 70. He says, it's a bunch. He said, and they're, because you know, they would come in trucks, offload, and just, he goes, we can't, he goes, I don't think we could withstand, and we can't repel him. we can't repel him. He goes, do you still have, we call a bat number? I said, I do. And he sent me like a good SF guy because he was, he was a first special forces group and you know, when he was in. But he sent me everything, topography location, but about everything. And so I made a call forward to that.
Starting point is 00:21:11 And he said it was, he said the heat from the strike was so hot, they're laying down on this side of the trench because of the trench work. And he said they, they, they toast to them, all of them. And because I can't believe how, he's just going to act, I can't believe how hot it was. And so there, there were decisions I made that, that changed the course of things in certain situations. And there were times by back guys were shooting at us and in an appropriate self-defense manner,
Starting point is 00:21:54 we would shoot back. I was never there to kick indoors or hunt ISIS. It's not my goal. But we had our rules and engagement of what we felt was appropriate. And decisions we would make that help protect children and women. And, you know, I've prayed, I've prayed for an ISIS fighter.
Starting point is 00:22:24 I got captured one night. And that was one of my wildest experiences. I think Dylan, what ISIS face to face. Because he's sinned up and he's on his, and he's sitting legs crossed. And you know, I'd start talking to him. Just, hey man, tell me about yourself. And he ain't not being a commander in the area.
Starting point is 00:22:47 He was actually well known. We were going in, it was late. And I was just, after midnight, we're going to, I think, pick up a kid out of Mosul. So we were in a staging area as a Ford Fob for Iraqis. And we were in a house. That's the Fob. And this guy talked to him about his family, it talked to him about his kids.
Starting point is 00:23:11 And then I said, you know, why'd you join? I says, he said pressure. He said, my brother joined, what am I gonna do? As part of the tribe stay and not come and fight and sit on, I said, okay, I said, what would you want me to tell young men that are being rackilized? And still the day it shocks me what he said, because tell them don't come to the evil. Darkness, tell them don't come. I'm like, wow.
Starting point is 00:23:47 I talked about some other things, and then... What else did you talk about? I talked about life and death. His children, his wife. I said, you know, you're not going to probably live much longer. He's in Shalon. People must understand we were in bed with Iraqis and they're just a system. There is, you know, 22 cent round. There's no.
Starting point is 00:24:16 When you're in combat and heat and stuff's happening, it's not as a person. Really warrants it. They, you know, just put lights on on people. It's not as a person. Really warrants it. You know, just putting lights on on people. So I had to almost say, you know, can I pray for your family? He said, please, pray for your family. I said, what's going to happen to you when you die?
Starting point is 00:24:39 He says, angel, ah. And I said, do you mind if I share with you what I consider my security of salvation when I die? Because no, go ahead. And then I share the gospel. I share the cross with Jesus did. And how he's the one that can forgive and pardon any one of our sins.
Starting point is 00:25:05 And I explain the deeps on the cross. You know, criminals in one of them wanted to enter into paradise, Christway, not through a false way of killing. And I said, do you want to know you have that assurance of life after the thing? He goes, yes. I said, do you want to pray with me to receive Christ? He said, yes. It's a nice, just fighter.
Starting point is 00:25:37 And I mean, I'm literally stunned this is happening. So he starts praying to receive Christ. And right at the end, I'll show you a picture of him. Right at the end, I said, in Jesus' name, and he stopped, and he shook his head, no. man like an evil entity come upon him and just like that he broke out of his hand ties his face contorted in his ears peenced up like a like a troll or something and my dog was right next to him. And she went for a throw. And I'm like, nah, I'm like, oh my gosh. I got her.
Starting point is 00:26:30 And I mean, I was shocked. I was like, wait a minute, I'm just finishing prayer. And Hassan, who's my personal security when we travel for C's. You know, he's jumping up. He's got his gun and the Rocky. So just come over time up again and I'm just praying like Lord what just happened and I was setting this evil leaves him and his face It's now being contorted and it gets smooth. I'm like
Starting point is 00:27:04 Do you know what just happened? He was like embarrassed. Yeah, that's it. That's, that's not human. I was like, my gosh, man, and I told him, well, look, there's no way that God brought me from America here. And then all a mission into Mosul tonight, there's fighting everywhere, and I just explained to the gospel for you that you would reject them. And I just said, you can call out to Jesus before you die, and he'll save you. I truly believe that, but it has to be from your heart. And he said, thank you. And he took him away and handed a son. He's quite the character.
Starting point is 00:27:53 I mean, like, you know, Tivogoraki dies his beard. You know, and he's just like this sunglass, cool hand-lood. But he used to be the personal security for Minister of Finance and his brother was killed on IED of IED, of Ibedralla, and they were both security, and then he worked for the unit, and so he's got a ton of experience, but he looks at me, he goes, boss, I'm very sorry. He goes, I seen the evil come in there, and in there and I was going to shoot him in the face, but I'm wait because you were saying the very nice things to him. And I'm like,
Starting point is 00:28:32 thanks for not shooting him in the face while I'm praying. That would like be the worst. You know, I saw him, no, you gotta wait. But that's, you know, that's how raki's are. Yeah, I was just like, it, poof. I saw him, no, you gotta wait. But that's, you know, the cellar, you know, the cellar, yeah, I was just like, oh, that comes to us all. So, yeah, it's, um, we still have a house there, Sean. What kind of stuff has happened into these kids?
Starting point is 00:29:04 We always try to find family. Tribal families, the best way. You can't adopt kids out of our rock. You can't adopt a kid if you're not Muslim. There are prohibitions to all that. Many are stilling camps. And it's going to turn into generational stuff like Palestine where there will be
Starting point is 00:29:25 perpetual victims. And it's very sad what happened. And it could have been stopped a lot sooner. But there's always, I mean, if governments can benefit from more, they will. And they'll even sacrifice their own people. I think we've all figured that out. Yeah. Especially this country.
Starting point is 00:29:51 Yeah. What I meant was what's happening to those kids before you get there. The pen's on where, what frame, what's going on, everything from their hiding with their parents and their parents are murdered. To, they've been abducted by ISIS, bad things happen. Things that people don't, they don't need to know, they don't want to know. And I remember I kept one video of a kid. It got sent to me in an area that we were working
Starting point is 00:30:40 and I just killed the parents and this little baby, so taller, they left them by a garbage can. And he's covered with flies, it's got a diaper that's, you know, old. And people look at this video and you think you're looking at a dead baby and then it moves and then your eyes as fire is laughing and kids have seen the worst they've seen the parents
Starting point is 00:31:16 he had it shot they watch other kids get burned alive on in fires or one case, it was like an outdoor oven, just a reinforced fear. The last girl we had in our house had been held captive for seven years and she was a sex slave. So we... Here's what's amazing about the resilience of kids. She's sitting in that living room at our house and our safe house and she's smiling. I'm like, why are you smiling? She goes, I'm free. She's got a broke nose, her back is busted. And she's like, I'm, I'm free. And the other helping me. No one else is. And Rosa could have given them all names. We reunited nine mothers with 12 children. They had separated
Starting point is 00:32:34 ISIS. It separate the moms for sex lives and then the children were somewhere else. And we got We got them together for the first time. They all stayed at our house. But probably the hardest situation. We have ongoing cases, individual, hard to reach. We made a promise we would never stop searching for girls who are still being held. And we never publicly make stuff known. But this is a girl we've been looking for for three years and we found her.
Starting point is 00:33:16 She's been held. When we started looking for her, she had already been held for two years, so six years. And my team goes, they call me, boss, we found her. She's such a high-value target within the organization of ISIS that they put out a full story in a Turkish newspaper that said her name and that she had been rescued. It's a complete false. that said her name and that she had been rescued. That's a complete false.
Starting point is 00:33:51 Why is she such a target? Why is she so important to them? Well, she's the last Christian girl that was kidnapped. And they brainwashed her so good. She's recruiting girls to be vest, you know, suicide. And suicide bombers. Yeah. She's so good at recruiting.
Starting point is 00:34:21 And my guys, they call me one time. And it's like, my lung go, and I go, we found her. We've got eyes on her, we've been monitoring. I said, let's do risk assessment together. They go bloody, we can do it. I said, you know, a type of casualty is a loss of life. And they go, you know, it's gonna be bloody. There's, and then he goes, do you want my opinion?
Starting point is 00:34:56 And I need people to understand this. This is not American guy talking. They're in the age and, uh, the CJA goes, let me kill her. It's just better for everybody, including her. It's hope. And then they moved her. And we know what she is right now.
Starting point is 00:36:01 And we actually got a video for her mom, from her mom, begging her to please come. And this is the type that requires prayer. prayer, because even if you get them out, some people are so damaged, mostly. It's tough. They so identify with what they've been brainwashed by. So, you know, again, the normal people and even Christians, they don't understand how nasty and dark this world is and what we deal with when decisions you have to make, and our goal is always to set the cap to free physically, emotionally and spiritually. And that's just the Middle East. Every country, every region has its own rules.
Starting point is 00:37:40 And, you know it's ugly it's an ugly ministry that's needed and we're all about again setting captors free physically when they need it emotionally and spiritually. But that, that, that's caused a lot of people to, not like my wife and I. And we don't care. Let's do a job like my wife said, my wife said, is we're about to pump it up really bad situation. Haley looks at me and goes, what's the worst that can happen? We die. I'm like, yeah, death. She goes, but then don't we win, honey? Because we're going to have them. I'm like, dang. You really believe in this stuff, like, at a whole different level.
Starting point is 00:38:33 I mean, I believe in what we're doing. But I'm looking forward to the great grandpa, death, ponds, kids. You know, my wife is like, we follow God's will. And if we die, it's his, it's his will, not man's. Because she literally believes it doesn't matter how many times we're one day, I counted 30 mortars shot at us on the move. I stopped counting at 30. I'll put it to you that way. And I'm just like and again we understand. That's what I tell people. If we're ever killed or rolled up or something,
Starting point is 00:39:17 I hope to the good Lord. Nobody thinks we made a mistake. Or the enemy enemy won instead of just saying, wow, they died well. They died, they died doing what if you want to. Again, people have to understand all these pumps of missions were all done in my 50s. So God's hands on us and now we're developing out teams. And one of the hardest places to do this work is the U.S. I knew you were going to say that. Yeah. Why do you think that is because rules that only work for criminals? Do you think that the US government has, do they want to solve this problem? Not at all. Do you think that's why the rules are there?
Starting point is 00:40:29 Mm-hmm. I believe there are good men and women in every part of our government. But they're probably a minority. I think they're definitely a minority. Yeah, without a, I'm being nice. Hounce of doubt. Yeah. So they're limited. It's like, uh, it's like when you're on the teams, can you imagine going on target and getting the order that says, your rules on the gauge of an order of this, don't even lock a load. Like, what the hell, are you kidding me? In America, we could be getting a lot more pedophiles.
Starting point is 00:41:16 The problem, it's so much bigger than people know. From what I understand, the US is the largest consumer of underage pornography. Yeah. We call it child porn. The technical term is CSAM, child sexual abuse material, because it's all child abuse. And there were over 33 million images transferred or downloaded last year. And our Justice Department throughout the entire US just over 300 cases were prosecuted. just over 300 cases were prosecuted. I also have heard, well, not heard from the Hewis attached to the Department of Homeland Security said that there are, believe you said, there are 6,000 law enforcement officers in the world, in the world that are actively combating child sex crimes exploitation.
Starting point is 00:42:32 I would say that's accurate in the world. Here's what people need to understand here in the US. us departments and we've worked with, I mean, local departments, Homeland Security. We've worked with FB, we've worked with major groups, right? I can tell you this. They're overworked underfunded and under trained. I mean, even, I just, there are so many things that don't add up to me, you know. Let's talk about adoption. Right.
Starting point is 00:43:20 And I have several friends who are active, who can't have children, who are actively trying to adopt an American child. Now, what about a year ago? This isn't, I'm not getting into politics here. This is just, this is just facts. Straight truth. You know, a year ago, they overturned Roe versus Wig, which means there are going to be
Starting point is 00:43:50 a ton of kids. A ton of kids going up for adoption. But nobody seems to be able to find out how to adopt an American child. Now, where are all of these orphans who are being put up for adoption? Where are they going? Why is it that we have to adopt kids from wherever?
Starting point is 00:44:12 Ukraine, China, Haiti, not, I'm not saying that's bad. I'm just saying, why can't we adopt an American child? Where are they all going? No. We just overturned Roe vs. Wade. That means there are a lot of unwanted babies in this country that nobody wants to take
Starting point is 00:44:34 care of. Well, not nobody. There's a ton of people out there who want to adopt and they're unable to adopt. Why the f*** can they not adopt a f*** American kid? Where the f*** are they going? The system is not broken, it's rigged. That's why we can't account for 85,000 children that have crossed the border of which some of my wife and I were right there helping them get out of the water because they made a 3-month, 9-month, whatever and we're looking at these kids remember looking at a two sisters both under 11 and when they finally crossed over those at night we were embedded with a
Starting point is 00:45:32 that night we were embedded with a border control and then also you know a reserve unit and I'll never forget they came off this little raft when they felt safe my wife just grabbed them and they both started bawling. And 85,000 of these children are missing. The system is not broke and it's rigged, where when a kid gets out of the unaccompanied children's camps. The government set it up where you're only allowed to try to find them one time, one time. After that, there is no monitoring, there's no, it's again, it's so overwhelmed like child protective services, CPS is, they're beyond broken. And the goal is children, more than anything else.
Starting point is 00:46:34 The goal, because if you can break a child, man, it's a lifetime of trauma, even get them to function properly. I believe there's so many pedophiles in the US that it's beyond not safe anymore. And that's why we've started this new initiative starting with a think tank and then we've just started a task force and it's people can find it on our website we call it the pedophile hunter fun where we won't take any government money we're privately funded and don't matter if you're Democrat, Republican, independent, Christian, atheist, Buddhist, it doesn't matter.
Starting point is 00:47:30 We're coming for you. If you heard a child, if you use anything that's related to hurting children in a sexual way, yeah. And that's why law enforcement is important. District attorneys are important. And we're bypassing the system in some degree with our own private teams to do the hardest work. And it's not for it's not for sensationalism because a lot of times you can out a person, but that doesn't mean they're
Starting point is 00:48:06 going to get prosecuted. We're going for prosecution.

So thank you for all the support is greatly appreciated, and it is the only thing that makes this show drive on. So thank you for all the support. See you on Patreon. So one thing parents really don't understand is how absolutely dangerous it is right now. And it's to the point where you shouldn't be vigilant,
Starting point is 00:52:03 you should be hyper-vigilant. And I don't use that term lightly,'t be vigilant, you should be hyper vigilant. And I don't use that term lightly, but that's the state our nation is in. Regarding the safety of our children on welfare, I'll give this one of the fastest growing groups of people viewing child sexual abuse images are young men in their 20s. And people think how is that possible?
Starting point is 00:52:29 What's because of porn? Because when you start looking at porn or 8, 9, 10, 11 years old, which is who they target, they've been targeting kids for a long time. You get desensitized to regular porn, and it goes into these fetishes and extreme extreme tour. Now a guy in his 20s cannot derive sexual pleasure unless it's so perverted.
Starting point is 00:52:54 And that's when boom, that's why I just got into a situation with a conservative leader who was interviewed by first Peterson and then a Catholic fellow who is a good interview. But the guy asked me, goes, so what do you think about AI, child porn, which if people understand that, that's a litter. You can take images of children's, I've heard about this. Yeah. And literally, it's so, it's so messed up right now that an image of your child on the internet that you're trying to show people on social media, they can take the face of your child and make a porn movie with your child animated or animated or just this artificial intelligence that everything's real.
Starting point is 00:54:00 You can't tell the difference. Then they can insert themselves into this porn film. That's what AI, the danger of it in that realm. That's what the strike is about right now. In Hollywood, what is it? There's this long strike that's going to wear screen actors, guild, writers. What's happening in Hollywood is they're starting to, they're wanting to pay for the image of actors like Harrison Ford. Take his image, AI it, and make a movie with him in it, but he'll never have an award-come set. And you won't be able to tell the difference. And so some actors are like, that's cool. Other actors are no. And then extras will only work one time
Starting point is 00:54:59 because once their image is done, they're out of work. They've paid a small fee, I got paid a small fee for their likeness. So this is where it's going, and my deal was with Dennis Prager, who's Jewish, a conservative, but he said on this interview that he doesn't find it's evil
Starting point is 00:55:22 for a man to masturbate, to animated child porn. that he doesn't find it's evil for a man to masturbate to animated child porn. That's alarming. This is a... That's a real human being. Saying that, it's a real human being. And he's one of the most popular conservative talk hosts.
Starting point is 00:55:42 When did that come out? That came out three months ago. People listened to this guy? Oh, big time. He's considered one of the, yeah, that's why I say, I don't care, conservative, liberal. Now, I believe a lot of laws are being passed on the liberal side and extreme left,
Starting point is 00:56:01 because they are into openly perversion and, but perversions everywhere. When this guy said that, I literally made a video, played his clip in context, and I said, this man is creating pedophiles, because he just gave a liberty and a license for young men to watch animated child porn. Does he not understand what conditioning the mind is? For such a smart guy, supposedly, he didn't, because the video I made went viral, and they had apparently hurt them.
Starting point is 00:56:47 His organization, which is a nonprofit. Oh, and it's too bad. Yeah. So I got a call from his executive person. Oh, he didn't call you his executive called. Oh, heck, no, of course. Yeah. No. And I said, look, there's two things you need to do.
Starting point is 00:57:01 The hair on the back of my neck is standing on right now. And here's what's more alarming. People get executive called you to what? Speak for him. Well, it's his CEO of the organization. And they said, it was a female. And I'm like, wow, dude, you're just, because on the video, I said said I'll debate you on this issue and Or you can interview me whatever you want because he has a big talk show radio talk show And I said I'm risking losing a book deal Because it's by the same publisher I have a book coming out called the dangerous gentleman in February
Starting point is 00:57:42 And I'm like this is one of their key guys, and I don't care. I don't care. I'm more concerned about children and this conditioning of the mind. So I said, all you have to do is recant what you said and repent. Period.
Starting point is 00:57:58 Because he's written things on the Old Testament and a lot of Christians really appreciate this guy. And I think he's pompous in my opinion. This is arrogant guy that's lived in a bubble that has an experience life. And then for him to give the nod of, in literary his words were, the guy asked him, do you think you can't call this evil if a man is masturbating to animated child porn? He goes, no, no, I can't.
Starting point is 00:58:36 And good on the host, the host looks at him, goes, a good Catholic dude, he goes, that's despicable. And his response was really, why? And I'm like, so here's the most disturbing. That's the end of the conversation. Yeah, that's it. But he actually doubled down to say,
Starting point is 00:58:59 He doesn't understand why. How do you even exp, how do you, well his position was, no one's hurt. understand why. How do you even explain? How do you? Well, his position was that no one's hurt. There's no victims in this and I'm going, wow, you are a stupid man. And I said, if you're really that, I mean, if you really don't get that, talk to me. I'll talk to me. So of course he never did.
Starting point is 00:59:27 He called other people and then as CEO, call me and I'm just like, what did the CEO say? Like what does that conversation look like? I would like to excuse, like what was it? Oh no, it was, what do you have against us? You like Kitty, but you. You're destroying our organization. I said, what does destroying or hurting
Starting point is 00:59:53 whatever the term was? You know, your organization, what does that mean? And this is what she said, our donations have dropped tremendously. And I'm like, and there you have it. That's what it goes back to again, is money and donations. And they did this, now they did a clean up campaign where he's been interviewed by different people.
Starting point is 01:00:19 And he's like, okay, I didn't realize how bad animated child porn is is and it can affect people. And, you know, I'm like, wow. So, he never apologized. He only said, and he wouldn't use my name. He just goes, people out there taking my words out of context. I'm like, it was the clip.
Starting point is 01:00:43 So this is what I'm trying to tell people and parents, it's a lot worse than you think. When you have one of the top radio shows in the nation of the top conservative sharing that his position, he couldn't call it evil. And again, he tried to justify it and, you know, Joseph was just sending, you know, and I get all that, but at least say it's disgusting. At least say no, no one should be doing that. No one should be, you know, when it sounds like he's condoning it. I said, I said, you're giving a liberty and a license
Starting point is 01:01:25 for young men, our men to go. I said, I said, you're giving a liberty and a license for young men or men to go. Whoa, if he says it's, so now he's recanted everything, but again, Judge of Man's Heart, just his words, and he certainly ain't repentant to me. It was damage control because they're losing money. But this is my point, because I don't wanna to make this political. Yes, when it comes time for a perversion, it's across the board and let's start with Christians.
Starting point is 01:01:54 I would tell parents watching this, don't put your child in a daycare or a Christian, care or a Christian, you know, sunny school classroom unless the church requires not only a background check, but there are windows, but a poly. I would absolutely require a forensic photograph examiner to come in for volunteers. And that's one question I would say too, is have you ever fantasized about any sexual things about children? And too, have you looked at any type of images or child pornography, you know, in the last year? Guess what?
Starting point is 01:02:43 They're going to find a lot of volunteers, not one to volunteer. And pastors play ignorant by saying, well, we do a background check. I'm like, that does nothing for a person who's never been caught. You don't know the increase in the rise of downloads, production of distribution, and people don't realize that 86%, I think the numbers right now is 86% of all. Child porn looked at transfer, the sexual images is done at work.
Starting point is 01:03:19 And it's people using their works IP address or it's an addiction. And the sad thing is we cannot right now, we can't arrest our way out of this. Yeah, you know, it's, I covered a lot. I interviewed this guy, you know him, Ryan Montgomery. Yeah. And good guy found a Instagram clip on what he was doing. Nobody would give this guy the time of day. Nope. And, uh, brought him out here. It's a, it turned out to be the biggest interview I've ever done in my life. And, yeah. And I'm, I'm happy. Oh, gosh. That interview saved a, saved more kids. kids. Should then you and I will be able to count. And and what I wanted to do with that interview was I wanted to make it real.
Starting point is 01:04:14 I mean, I wanted to I didn't want to make it real, but I wanted to understand because you hear these things, you know, you hear, oh, they're in the, they're in Instagram, they're in TikTok, they're in the chat rooms are on Facebook snapchat Xbox playstation computer games you Anywhere the kids are online. I've heard you know that these the predators are there and they're home and so I needed to see this you know because I'm I am a, I have to see to believe a lot of times, you know, and I mean, even with my faith. Yeah, I mean, I don't know if you've listened to that. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:58 So, but like it, it's, I'm just that guy. I've got a seed of believe. It's hard for me to take anybody's word. So Ryan's sitting there and I said, hey, you got your laptop here? And he said, yeah, I said, just pull your laptop out, getting any chat room. I don't care.
Starting point is 01:05:15 Social media platform, whatever you want. And I want to see how long this is. She told me. She told me. It was like five seconds. It's crazy. Made the screen name Ashley 13, New Jersey. I'll never forget it.
Starting point is 01:05:28 He goes, oh, got one right here. And I'm like, I couldn't even have typed the name that fast. And the user, you know, the user name that fast. And as the conversation developed, there it is. I think it was a 47 year old man wanting to get with a 13 year old girl. Right there, I just proved to, however many people watch that episode. Millions. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:06:01 It was one of the most convincing clips. And so people understand too, Ryan is such a solid guy. He's actually both on our think tank and part of our task force. Good. Good. And I mean, he'll help. He does work with other people too, but he had one of the most convincing positions by proof on your program that changed. I think it changed our nation where people went. Oh my gosh, this is real. And like the next step of that is for people to understand, it's not some creepy.
Starting point is 01:06:40 It's not just creepy weird dude in a basement. It's doctors, lawyers, it's government officials. I mean, it's the white collar white man crime. That's what it is. And I'm just gonna say it. Because there's no community anymore. You know, there's just, there's no community anymore. Man, this child pedophilia, it leans toward, I mean, we have operations in other countries. I can show
Starting point is 01:07:12 you, I can show you right now, a photo of a four year old girl who we have in our custody, who was being raped by foreigners, by the grandfather. And two days ago, she went to court to testify. Can you imagine that? To be able to testify, and she went down to Courthouse, and one of the abusers showed up. A white dude, views just showed up. A white dude, order dude that can go over there and we're actually running facial recognition on them as we speak because it's beyond the brazenness of evil is beyond what people imagine. Beyond what people can imagine. Do you think this problem is getting worse or is the veil just being lifted? It's getting worse. It's getting worse.
Starting point is 01:08:19 Yeah, because of technology. Because my abuser as a kid, he had dirty magazines, but to get a to get child pornography, that was a physical, that was a physical something he had to hold. He couldn't email it. You couldn't go online. It wasn't all online. There's no internet.
Starting point is 01:08:40 Now, what would take a sailor, a lifetime of traveling to see and learn about an eighth grader can on his phone in one night? That's why it is sped up the process of absolutely destroying the minds of our children, not a sailor, but our children. And that's what people aren't willing to accept and understand. I think they're starting to. Yeah. You know, I really do. But this kind of brings me into, I mean, look, nothing, it's getting to the point where nothing is making sense. And I'm even starting, you know, how do I say this? I think political barriers are starting to be torn down because it was a, it was a, it's
Starting point is 01:10:02 an illusion. It's a man-made illusion that these are party lines. Yes, I agree with you that yes, the left is the far left is trying to legalize pedophilia. You know, but there are guys on the right. There won't be any people on the right. And we have had plenty, you know, and I'm guilty of this. I'm guilty of politicizing this. Right. You know, I'm not going to lie. And well, not too bad, but I fell for it. I fell for the bait, I guess, is what I'm saying.
Starting point is 01:10:41 And I thought this was a political thing. This isn't a political thing. This is everywhere. And yeah, what I was fed was all political. This is all the left. Then I interviewed this guy. This interview hasn't even come out yet. I interviewed this guy who followed up staying around for 20 years. And so that'll be coming out hopefully shortly. But he had talked about a scandal called the Franklin scandal. Have you heard of this? It was in Nebraska.
Starting point is 01:11:15 And it was a child sex trafficking ring that was all conservatives back in that. Oh, yes. Oh, yeah, proven. Yeah. Yeah. Done. Absolutely proven documented.
Starting point is 01:11:31 Yeah. No conspiracy. Yeah. Fact happened. Oh, yes. Yes. And there's a he wrote a book on it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:37 And, um, and I mean, it's happening. It's happening right. One of the biggest rings ever to be busted was right here in Williamson County. Now, supposedly this is the 19th safest county to live in in the country. If I remember, it was, it's like top, top 20, whatever. Who cares? Top 50.
Starting point is 01:12:02 I don't even, I don't even, you know what I mean? There's a lot of counties. Yeah. Biggest, biggest sex trafficking ring and the kind, one of the biggest ones in the country busted right here. How is this the safest county? Yeah. Give me a break. There's no safe places.
Starting point is 01:12:15 You know, and that's an illusion. And, you know, and there are so many other things that are happening that make zero sense, the gender issues. You want to do that stuff when you're 18 years old. I don't care. I don't think anybody really cares. Right. I might make people uncomfortable, but I don't think they really care. But you start doing that to eight year old kids. kids You know you see these you see these a list celebrities with three sons and I All three of them want to be all three of them just happen to want to be Little girls girls. I'm not buying that shit. No, nobody's buying that. Well, some people are, you know, and, but there's that. There's, I mean, everywhere you look, it's upside down. And a lot of people still think this is political.
Starting point is 01:13:18 This isn't political. I think this is, I think this is a legitimate battle of good versus evil, spiritual warfare. And I am very green on this topic, but it just doesn't make sense. You know, I know people who are liberal, who are great people, you know, and I'll probably get a bunch of shit for saying that on this platform, but I'll tell you my, the therapist that I give credit to saving my life and just about every spec operator who's sat in that chair has talked to her as well. She's helped thousands of, of tier one spec ops guys, of tier one spec ops guys, get VA benefits, walk them through, talk them out of the talk them out. I mean, just about as far left as you can, well, I shouldn't say she's a lefty.
Starting point is 01:14:14 You know what I mean? Amazing human being. The woman that I interviewed who got the four blackwater guys. She's the one that got Trump's attention to pardon these guys for being innocent, you know, a liberal woman. So this is a conservative audience here, but I'm here to tell you like the Valesman,
Starting point is 01:14:43 the, you gotta lift it. Yeah, we're not that far apart. And that's part of the messaging to make everybody so far apart. And we're dealing with humanity, and I agree with you a thousand percent, what people need to understand, there's an unseen war at the highest level.
Starting point is 01:15:04 And it is truly between good and evil. And there's an unseen war at the highest level. And it is truly between good and evil. And the angels are involved in sort of demons because out of everything I do, everything we've talked about today, probably the most important thing we do is deal with the demonic. And again, our mission statement to set people free, kids, especially physically,
Starting point is 01:15:29 emotionally and spiritually. And until you get really set free in the spiritual realm, there's unneeded suffering, there's unneeded treviness, there's unneeded addictions. There's unneeded torment. And a person really, and it's just a late in our culture that that's all been separated out and like dismissed. People, cultures you go around, people believe in evil. You start talking about here in the US, no, no, no, you know, other countries like of course, of course. And I've seen it. We've dealt with it. And I can tell you it's what makes sense out of all the craziness that is one higher level of demonic activity, driving people, in the battlefields in their mind. And I do believe that a person's soul, which I would consider
Starting point is 01:16:36 as mind-millening motions, can be assaulted by a demon entity. Now, I'm not talking about possession. I don't even use the word possession because I think that's what the devil, who's the highest fallen angel, Satan, I believe that's what he wants people to think. That unless you're manifesting crawling walls, that unless you're manifesting crawling walls, vomiting, what movies are made out of, then a person goes, well, I don't have any issues with demons because that's unhappening to me. I'm like, oh my gosh, there's,
Starting point is 01:17:15 that's simply not true. And why do mothers kill their children? Why does a teacher and her husband, who's a police officer, literally make cupcakes for her to take to her class room, children. And kids were getting sick, but some came up. They ended up finding out that they were putting this man seamen in the cupcakes and she was giving it to the kids. Yeah, both convicted. And why does a good Christian staff member at a church in San Diego, a well-known church in San Diego. Her husband is a former board of patrol and they're Christian-going people. Why were they charged with the death of foster kids they took in who were beaten in Mount Nutrition? Their evil has to be brought into this equation, and I believe people's hearts
Starting point is 01:18:28 can be desperately wicked. But when they yield themselves to evil, when they yield themselves to demonic activity, the only way out is to be free. And you can't wish that away. I believe there are times you just got to be prayed for because that's how we deal with the demonic is through prayer. And I'll say this, we actually have a documentary and eight part docuseries coming out soon. And it explains really what warfare is, spiritual warfare. It explains the tactics, the strategies, but the greatest thing it actually teaches people their authority how to
Starting point is 01:19:14 stand against and not be a victim of demonic attacks. Well, what is it? So how would you define spiritual warfare? Yeah, I think it is about a between good and even demonic, the devil, God and his angels. But the prize is actually humans. That's who they're going after. Is it souls? Souls ultimately, that's the biggest thing. But if they can't get a soul, then they'll just destroy God's creation. They'll destroy something God loves and he loves people.
Starting point is 01:19:54 And that's their goal to ruin their life, to make them miserable, to cause the forces, to create addictions, to lie in a person's mind, and if a kid goes, I think I am a girl. You know, or a girl saying, I want my breast cut off because I feel like a boy. This is a new phenomenon. This never happened in the history of the world. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:20:16 And it just goes on and on. The destruction of the family, fint and all this. It just, there's an evil that is active and working and people need to understand the only way you can fight it is through the power of Christ, the blood of Jesus, and your authority in who you are. And I've dealt with thousands of demons now, thousands easily. How do you think this ends? I think the Bible is true. I think that we're on a time table
Starting point is 01:20:55 of what's happening through prophecies being fulfilled in the Bible, and I think we're heading Bible. And I think we're heading towards certain, it's a certain absolute, unchangeable destination of the world, uning itself to the Antichrist. And for the Antichrist to rule, people have to be willing subjects by and large. And I told people, and I mean it, if as bad as cancer is, let's just say cancer is the worst thing in the world, or child abuse, as bad as those things are for use those two, or let's say divorce, you know, for people who hate divorce
Starting point is 01:21:47 or adulter, whatever, think of the worst pain. If it all, if it all could be solved in one week, cancers, a cure, no more children being used. Those are like just unmistakable, right? Those aren't religious issues. Those are just just unmistakable right those aren't religious issues. Those are just human issues but the requirement would be for everyone to stop using their cell phone.
Starting point is 01:22:17 And that's impossible. It's impossible. Because of the human heart. I'm convinced that it's just people feel like they're preparing for the worst and they're going to overcome it and I'm like you're just building a sand castle in the devil's sandbox. When he comes with his water hose, there's nothing you can do. And they're definitely, I mean, the enemy has a legal right to some people who yield themselves. So it's, what do you mean by that? Well, the Bible says God resists a proud, but it gives grace to the humble. The Bible is very clear that if a person is in rebellion to God, if they embrace sin,
Starting point is 01:23:09 it does open them up to the works of darkness. And it's very sneaky at first. In some cases, in other cases, it's just blatant. I've interviewed and talked with them with more violent chronic offenders in the juvenile system than anybody else in the country. The top 3 to 5%. Your math tutors, your rapist, your baby killers, all of it. And it boils down to this. Evil is acceptable nowadays in our society. That's the slow frog in the kettle. And it's slowly being warmed up. He's swimming around, swimming around. And it's not boiling yet.
Starting point is 01:24:00 He's not worried. And then by the time it gets to a boiling point, he's dead. It's too late. That's what's happened to the human mind and our heart and it's because of television because of movies it's because of music and it's because of social media, the internet, that cell phone and people will not give it up. So like I was in Burma, we did a month-long mission inside Burma. You know, bad stuff happened and trying to help get people.
Starting point is 01:24:38 And I remember laughing, going, if a person says they have a porn problem, then come here. Because you, again, reception, you ain't looking at porn. You'll find out how much you don't. It's what our culture set up. The Bible says that Satan is the God of this world, small G. So he runs it, he controls it. It's it's not Twav, it's not Soros, it's not WF. Those are all puppets and pawns of the wicked one. And I believe they yield themselves to evil. And he's happy to oblige. Then he has a legal right to have people do his bidding. And I've seen it again and again and again. What do you do if you're on the good side of this? What can people do? Well, you get excited about the ultimate outcome,
Starting point is 01:25:43 not the temporary and the ultimate outcome, not the temporary, and the ultimate outcome is heaven for those of us who wanna believe the truth of God's word and know that he's made a way of escape, including temptation. The Bible says there's no temptation, that's not common to all mankind, that God actually hasn't given us a way out of. So there's a truth and a power in that to go. I can live far above my the base human nature. And when people like when people say,
Starting point is 01:26:19 you know, I like it porn is not a big deal. I'm like, well, there's different types. You got, know, I like it porn. It's not a big deal. I'm like, well, there's different types. You got, you got people who are exploring, you get people who struggle like, oh, I shouldn't look at that, but everyone saw they do. I think I have people who are addicted. I mean, it's ruining their life. It will destroy their marriage. It will take them to dark, dark places. And it's like, well, if you just believe the truth that the power of God's in you, the same power that raised Christ from the dead, you don't have to be a slave to anything, anything. So the good news is we can occupy until we die
Starting point is 01:26:55 until Christ comes back. That's the good news. But we live with a purpose known, ultimately we're fighting a spiritual battle for the hearts and minds of kids, women, children, humanity. That's always our ultimate goal. But yet I never force it. I've never had one Muslim friend feel like that I was trying to help a kid in order to present Jesus in the gospel. Never.
Starting point is 01:27:28 Never. I was like, you know why? Because I wouldn't want anybody doing that to my kids or my grandchildren. So I think we can live a life. I never forget I just finished a firefight. Again, as a missionary going into an ISIS-controlled village that they've had for three years, and we know there's women and children in there. So we embedded with the Sriraki force, bone, we hit this town, this little village, all hell's breaking loose. And, you know, when there was a law, of course, it's lunchtime. So, you know, people eat, I'm leaning against the wall and there's a guy next to me. Somebody actually took a picture. We're leaning against the wall. He looks at me and he goes, why are on this mission. Why are you here?" And I said, well, God loves me.
Starting point is 01:28:32 And I love Him. But He's giving me a love for you and your people. And I think all women and children should be protected from evil. So we're here to help. That guy is, his eyes started leaking. And he's like, you really believe your faith? Oh, I do. And because I believe in evil. And I believe that ISIS has an organization
Starting point is 01:29:02 and their leaders are evil because of what they do. And again, it doesn't matter what country or region or realm I'm in, I always try to look at it at the highest level. And then I would encourage people to come to faith, grow in faith, just like if you want to be good at anything, you have to be intentional. And you can never go wrong just spending time reading the word. I listen to it more than reading because of TBI and whatnot. And like last night I listened half of the New Testament in the first two books in
Starting point is 01:29:40 the old, because I just play it. I want my brain to be soaked in that, right? But, um, and then learn, learn the strategies of the enemy and learn how you can defeat any demon in hell, or all of them coming at you. That's, that's what's lacking in the Western Church today. Where would you start to educate yourself on defeating them, the evil? Yeah. The first thing is to learn your identity in Christ. You know, if you hyper-focus on the devil and demons, it's almost like counterfeit money. Bank people, vault people who are going through cash, they're not looking
Starting point is 01:30:29 for a counterfeit. They're just focusing because they know the real thing so well as they're just pouring through it. A counterfeit sticks out. Oh, blaring. But after trying to look for the counterfeit, and that's the same thing I in the spiritual realm, don't focus on demons of the devil. Focus on the Lord and learn your identity because if you stay close with the Lord, if you grow, then when you get a thought, and remember, that's the battlefield,
Starting point is 01:31:04 you may see it manifest in people, and I have, I've had demons speak to me through people. I hate you. I know who you are. I'll destroy you, your family, your ministry. You know, I had one, had one, just to say, I'm effing, I will effing kill you. I will murder you. I'm like, shut up.
Starting point is 01:31:28 Now you know what, you're being judged right now. Stop using this man's voice. And when you learn your position and your power in Christ, you don't fear demons. I had a, the Spec-Up guy, is a Tyrellan dude, and he launched at me. He was struggling so bad, he was so sad, and all that.
Starting point is 01:31:57 I start praying for him, and when I ask his demon, its name, this guy had launched at me for me to you. And I mean, I thought I was about to have to do the tango with a name demon because rare cases, but people can yield themselves with the evil evil manifesto rare. But halfway to me, I promise you, and I have witnesses, him being the main one, it was like an angel grabbed him by the scruff of his neck and slammed him right in front of me. He hit his knees so hard and he's growling and I'm like demon. He releases him and you have no right. In the name of Jesus.
Starting point is 01:32:48 And this team was like, you can't have him. I said, well, you don't own him. You just tricked him. And the guy gets set free in like five minutes. And he was like, what the hell was that? I said, we call it freedom. So, his form will battle. You can never get into?
Starting point is 01:33:05 Eddie Penny talks a lot about this stuff too. Does he? Oh yeah. You guys need to meet. It's real. And once you know how to crush demons and set people free, for the warrior, you're like, oh yeah. Because you really can destroy demons.
Starting point is 01:33:26 And so people know me as a pedophile hunter. We've got patches, but in reality, I'm really hunting demons. Good for you, man. The world needs it. We need a lot more people like you. Well, I hope we can produce a bunch before it's my time to go. I hope this helps. But Victor, this has been a phenomenal interview. And I know it wasn't easy for you. And I just want to say thank you for opening up like that.
Starting point is 01:34:07 And to me, in my audience, and I think a lot of good, it's going to come from this. A lot of education is going to come from this. A lot of hope is going to be sparked and a lot of young people's lives who are going through a tough time because of this and managed just a real honor to know you and and have you here.
Starting point is 01:34:28 Thank you. You're welcome and thanks for having me. I appreciate your friendship and your brotherhood. Me too. Let's stay in touch. You will. Cheers, Bella. You
