other countries, when you see how people in other parts of the world live, it should give you a new appreciation for just how blessed this country has been, just how wise our founding fathers were, when they were reading the scriptures and trying to apply those things to political life. Now, I wrote Mount Rushmore on the eve of our celebration, America 250 Trump said, you cannot be a communist anipatry. Listen, you can be loyal to Karl Marx or you can be loyal to America. You can be a communist or you can be a patriot. You cannot be both as for those who pedal Marx's lies about our heritage, tell our children that we live on stolen land or that our heroes were oppressors. They're doing something much worse than slandering our past. They are slandering and attacking our future. Not going to let that happen. They're trying to tear down the great American character to destroy the people who declared independence, who crossed the Delaware, who settled the West and conquered the skies. You know who those people are, but we will never let that happen. Our American ancestors did not shed their blood at Concord and Trenton, Gettysburg and Shiloh, Midway and Normandy, just so that a band of thieves, radicals and lunatics could come in and loot pillage our nation. Our heroes died to win, build and to save and to build truly a great country, the greatest country ever in the world. Thank you, Mr. President, for that. Now at the Massive America 250 event in DC, on the Fourth of July, Trump continued his rhetorical assault on communism. Check this out. Of the American system and the communist system has never worked. Our warriors did not fight communism on battlefields across the world, only to have that menace rear its ugly head right back here in America. We're not going to let it happen. We like to stop a threat like that immediately and before it begins, it's like a cancer. You got to cut it out. You got to cut it out fast. Absolutely correct. And those comments are getting a lot of attention. I've been invited on NTT News and Newsmax all over the place just in the last few days to talk about what that means. Andrew, what do you make of this? I mean, we haven't heard a lot of American presidents for a long time talking about the threat of communism. You've got a lot of whiny people say, oh, it's McCarthyism 2.0. I mean, Trump just making it up. Is there no communist threat? There's totally a communist threat. All people have to do is look to Los Angeles or New York City to see the Democratic Socialists of America rising their ranks. They're saying they own these cities. They own those provinces. And Trump is doing something that, as you said, correctly, has not been said since truly Ronald Reagan's era, which is that communism's real. It's not only in China and across the world. It's also here within our own borders. And give credit where credit's due. Trump has actually been pushing back on these people. And this is Trump at his best. And I think that this is what he needs to be focusing on. Focus a little bit less on foreign interventions. Focus a little bit less on what's going on across the world. Start to focus on issues here at home, like immigration, the issue of communism. And that is where Trump is at his best. That's what one Trump, the presidency, and 16, 20, I guess, everybody got that one stolen from him and then in 24. So he's exactly right about this. I'm very grateful for his strong and true words on it. Yeah, he's absolutely right to be speaking out about this. And folks, Robert Bortons from Classical Conversations, and I just released a book this year, Woken Weaponized, How Carl Marx won the battle for American education and how we can take it back. We're not going to be able to take it back. And we're not going to be able to save our country unless we deal with the threat of this communist thinking that is now infected multiple generations of Americans. So Kudos to the president for talking about that. They had a huge fireworks display in Washington DC. In fact, they broke the world record for the largest display ever. And if we can roll that while I'm talking, they had what 850,000 shots, if I'm not mistaken, wonderful way to celebrate our country. Beautiful, beautiful. Now, the Department of Justice just released a massive report, folks. It's draft so far. It's a pre-porting title, Religious Liberty Commission. It says that far too often in our national life, religion is treated not as a protected and valued contribution to public life, but as a problem or annoyance to be managed, restricted or sideline. They said that safeguarding religious liberty requires more than defending legal rights after they've been violated. It requires cultivating a culture that understands why those rights exist in the first place. So this was done in pursuance to Donald Trump's executive order establishing the Religious Liberty Commission. And some really good people involved. Dr. Ben Carson, who of course we've interviewed here before as the vice chair of that commission. And they have done really good points about how perverted our understanding of the First Amendment has become. It doesn't mean you can't be a Christian and talk about Christ in the public sphere. It means the government shouldn't be dictating to you how you worship, how you believe what you must believe. The report points out that religion is indispensable that it builds moral character, strong families. And really it's been an essential part of our nation's history. In particular, Christian traditions and the biblical heritage that we have. They actually cite a lot of examples of abuses on this front that we have seen just in recent years. Students bullied for opposing the gender weirdness in the class. Teachers told to remove their crosses or lose their jobs. Maybe seal who lost his pension near retirement over refusing to take these COVID concoctions. Jewish students excluded from government funded programs at
universities. Parents lied to by government indoctrination camps, masquerading as schools over gender and all kinds of stuff. There's so much to say about this folks. You need to check out the report. They've got 12 recommendations that are really significant. They want people to know their rights. They want to repeal the Johnson Amendment. They want to fix religious accommodations in the military. A lot of good stuff in here. And I'm I've wanted to make excited that the Department of Justice has released this. Now other big news from the Trump administration. Trump is actually declining to renew this massive US MCA, US Mexico, Canada agreement. Frankly, this thing was an atrocity. It was like NAFTA on steroids. It radically expanded the areas of law over which these North American tribunals and bureaucracies would have jurisdiction. In fact, I was asked by somebody advising Trump to prepare a memo on why this was such a bad idea. And I did not share that until just the other day I posted it on the x you can go read it if you would like. But I would encourage people to look at what's going on here. This US MCA was exactly what Trump campaigned against. It was the idea that we're not going to have multilateral trade agreements that undermine our sovereignty. There is so much wrong with this. So just because Trump said we're not going to renew, doesn't mean we're out of the woods yet. There's a lot more to go. There's now a 10 year countdown during which they're going to supposedly renew negotiations and figure it out. But Trump had a couple of interesting things to say. He said last month, I made the deal. And the primary reason I made the deal is that NAFTA was the worst trade deal I've ever seen. Yeah, and I made it better. But I had the right to terminate. And we hope that he will stick with that. Folks, this was negotiated by the deep state cartel. US trade representative Robert Leidheiser, an actual member of the council on foreign relations. We don't need these people determining what our policy should look like. Now, we did have some major hearings in Congress about MK Ultra. I want you to listen to this little segment with representative Anna Paulina Luna of Florida. Is it in your expert opinion that Jack Ruby and Manson were assets of the intelligence agencies specifically pertaining to MK Ultra? Were they MK Ultra? Yeah, theoretically, Manson. I've never been able to prove absolutely. Jack Ruby, I believe this is something else. The Warren Commission investigation on the Warren Commission was Alan Dulles, the former CIA director who authorized and ran M. Tales for until he was fired by President Kennedy. The liaison to the committee for the CIA who handled the information coming from the CIA back and forth to the Warren Commission was Richard Helms, who was a direct supervisor of Jolly West. They knew who West was. They knew that what West was capable of and what they had paid him to do and what he had reported to them that he could do,
including inducing. There's a lot more where that came from. Here's Congressman Tim Birchett. Just leaving hearing on MK Ultra, if you don't know what that is, it was the program to see I used to, they're giving people acid mind control and they claim they weren't doing it and then they got sued and they found out they were doing it. But now they say they're not doing anymore so I guess my question was which lie do we believe? and they seem to think that it's still going on. Yeah, folks, these are the CIA's mind control programs, parts of which were exposed by the church committee. They tried to shred all the documents. Now there were problems with the church committee. Don't get me wrong. But yes, the CIA was involved in mind control experiments. It was horrific. They were using drugs and torture and the tentacles of this go so deep. It's so abominable. And as of yet we haven't seen any huge explosive revelations. I mean, it was interesting to hear that about Jack Ruby and Lee Harvey Oswald. But I really think Congress needs to pursue this more. We also had Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announcing that we're ending the emergency liability protections for the COVID-19 vaccine makers. He had a lot to say. So the circumstances no longer exist to justify emergency use of drugs and biological products during the COVID-19 pandemic. And so hopefully these things will be pulled off the market now that the manufacturers realize they could be sued into the ground. Before we go to break, folks, there's a really crazy new film now called Citizen Vigilante about an American who goes to Europe and starts like slaughtering Islamist, jihadists who are like gang raping girls and stuff. I know a lot of people are going to be tempted to think like, yeah, that's what I think there's an agenda here. Don't watch the movie. There are some scenes that I wish I had never seen. They're horrific. The murder, the sex stuff. I just want to warn you against it, folks, because I know a lot of people are getting all excited about this. Yeah, let's go get the bad guys because the court system is failing. I think this is actually an effort to start up a civil war, to spread it on institutions, our legal traditions. So just watch out, folks. Don't fall for it. And then Paris mayor, Deputy Mayor blaming the United States and our CO2 emissions for the heat wave in France when French people wonder why they can't have AC. So let's say we're going to be right back after this break with some incredible guests. You're not going to want to miss it.

They just had the massive funeral for the dead Supreme Leader, the IAO Tola. And it looks like the Iranian regime is not only going to stay in place, but it's going to have access to significant international funding and is going to play a major role in the future of the straight of Hormuz. As a Christian, one obvious question for me is what happens to the nation's Christians. And there are many of them. In fact, Christianity is going very rapidly. Author out Iran joining us to discuss all this and more is Muhammad Faridi. He is the president of Iranian Christians International. He's the author of Forsaking. My father's religion. He actually served two years in the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, left Islam, and now is ministering to the church in Iran. Muhammad, thank you very much for joining us today. It's an honor and pleasure to have you. Thank you for having me. That's great to have you here. Thank you. So let's start just with the geopolitical angle. What is the future right now for Iran in terms of global geopolitics? What's the future of the regime? It looks like it's going to stay in place. And what does that mean for the Iranian people? Absolutely. No Iranian who is not on the side of the evil. Once this regime to stay in power, the Iranian people are sick and tired. You call this, you mentioned that Iranian supreme leader. He's the supreme dictator. No, no, Iranian has voted for him. He's an illegitimate dictator, bloodthirsty mullah who killed thousands. He's responsible for the death of Iranian people, the Persian people, Americans and Jews, Muslims and non-Muslims. So the only people that cry in his death are the people who are benefiting from his regime, his evil politics that they're somehow sad. But they run in people as far as I'm concerned, the church of Iran, the Christians, the Iranian people, majority of them, they were dancing and celebrating his death. Thousands of video circulated February 28th when the Americans and the IDF bombed him and killed him. They did us a service by removing this. This regime will not stay in power. It cannot sustain itself. I believe it is with all of my heart. They might buy time now with the negotiations, but their negotiation cannot last. These regime thinks that the annihilation of the Jews is their eschatology, is the ushering of their Mahdi to come back. And Israel will never put up with that. America might be thousands of miles away from that situation, but Israel is two countries over. If you look at Iraq, Syria, then we have the border of Israel. And those people have to deal with this rogue state, these bullies in the Middle East, and they will not. And Israel will take care of the business by the grace of God. Fascinating take. What do we know about these allegedly new leaders? We're hearing different things that we've had people in Washington DC say that they seem more moderate and more sensible than the old leaders. We've seen other people say they might be more radical. What's your assessment of the current folks in charge of the regime there? Absolutely. If day and night you were afraid for your life, if you were hunted down by the Musad, by the CIA, and to join your 72 virgins in paradise, you would be quickly moderate too. I mean, the bombs, the rockets, the drones will make you moderate. They're evil. They are a bunch of perverts. They believe that Islam has take over the world, the whole world has to belong to Islam. And necessary by force, necessary by coercion, doesn't matter to them. And now, after somebody we have an adult in the White House that is dealing with this bully, they have realized quickly that they need to be negotiating. We need to now be tolerable toward other nations. Otherwise, they're not. This is a master putting on these people. I have been part of them. I have served with them. I know how they think. They really believe that they have been appointed by Allah as that government in the absence of Mahdi to rule the world. And anything they do, it is justice, holy, it is correct. Christians and Jews are corrupt and defiled and unclean. Therefore, they give themselves all sorts of rights to have a condescending look if you're non-Muslim, non-Sias. Therefore, now because for 48 days, the sky of Iran was the highway of the IIDF and the American Jits. Now they have decided because they don't want to die at this moment for the cause that they won the Iranian people die for the martyrdom. Now they have decided to take a different route because they were forced to. In the Islamic mindset, power is the language that is transferred as leadership. If you show them diplomacy, if they show negotiation, they take that as weakness and they feed off of that weakness. Theocracy is always this dictatorship always feeds on weakness. And we had so many weak presidents so far that they always feed off of that. And now we have an adult in the white house that is showing them no. If you take a wrong step, we'll break your foot as a result now, they're coming to the negotiations and putting up with all sorts of things. Well, Muhammad, we've only got a couple minutes left. One of the things that you do through your ministry is you try to teach
Christians how to reach Muslims with the gospel, with the great commission. I think for a lot of American Christians, Islam is kind of like a whole another world. Like we don't even know where you start with this. So in the last couple of minutes, we have, what can American Christians do to try to reach the Islamic peoples of the Middle East, the Islamic people in Iran with the saving truth of Jesus Christ? Absolutely. Thanks for the opportunity first to share something like that. It is when we talk about Islam or Islamic regimes or Islamic politics, people usually think for some bunch of Islamophobes or we don't Muslims. I just want you to know that last year in our ministry, we had over 1200 salvation, that is 2025. And I teach across this nation and to other believers around the world how to reach Muslims. When you come across as a weak Christian with no convictions, you are very apologetics, you're kind of tiptoeing around to not be offensive or I don't want to be offending, they have no respect for such Christianity, for such religion, for such faith. You need to stand firm in what you believe you know, you need to know the truth. You have to know this as a Christian. I have the truth and they're bound by lies and a satanic, demonic, diabolic religion. And I'm trying to help them out of that. If you have that kind of a conviction, you always will win. And the Holy Spirit always comes to prove his word, which is Jesus. We share the truth with Muslims all over the world. And as a result of them seeing our convictions, they know what we believe it is, the truth. Then they have the tendency to listen to you. Otherwise, if you would have gone around apologizing saying, I'm sorry, I'm a Christian, I'm sorry. Oh, we have done so much evil in the name of Americanism. If you go with that approach, good luck. Amen. But there is nothing that will transform a nation faster and more effectively than the light of the Word of God. You can find more about Muhammad and his ministry at iranchrisians.org. The book, it's called forsaking my father's religion, which by the way, if you didn't know, ladies and gentlemen, leaving Islam is a capital offense. It is punishable by debt. Muhammad, thank you very much for joining us today. Thank you for sharing your insights on this. And I hope we can get you back again very soon. Appreciate you. Thank you so much. Thank you. I'll go stay with us. We're going to be right back with much more here on the Central Report. In the grand tapestry of nature, a delicate balanced weaves, life's intricate threads today, this balance is faltering more and more as B populations face unprecedented challenges. Without a collective effort to rescue our bees and enhance biodiversity, we're headed for devastation on a global scale. But amidst the chaos, a solution has emerged, a rallying cry echoes, a call to protect these guardians of our food chain, introducing for our bees, a technology-driven organization that is saving bees globally
and organically every day. At for our bees, we understand the critical role that bees play in maintaining the balance of our ecosystem, saving the bees is synonymous with saving our planet. And for our bees is at the forefront of this mission. Visit forrbs.com to learn more about how you can save the bees and redefine the course of our future. We're going to have to send the report to Alex Nimmie and your host here. Folks, terrible things are happening to our fellow Christian homeschoolers in other parts of the world. Case in point, horror story out of Brazil, a rogue judge has just sentenced a loving mother and father to 50 days in prison for homeschooling their daughters and not teaching them the mandatory gender tolerance LGBT rainbow sex propaganda. And unfortunately, this comes amid a global attack on home education, coming down from the United Nations from UNESCO. And we're even seeing early manifestations of this in the United States. It's absolutely essential that parents and Americans resist this evil in its tracks. Joining us to discuss all this and much more is my friend Lauren Gayam. She is the director of government relations for classical conversations. She also leads the education independence initiative. It's a massive and growing coalition of groups and people dedicated to basically getting the government out of education. And we're storing that to where it belongs to the family. Lauren, thanks for joining us today. It's great to have you. Thanks so much for having me and for all of your work on this topic of freedom and education both. Well, it's an honor to have you here. Thank you. And I love CC. Of course, my own children are enrolled in CCS over the fellow there. And I can't say enough good things about it. We appreciate them so much. Almost 150,000 students all over the world. It's amazing, including all over Latin America. But Lauren, I want to ask you about this case in Brazil. I think a lot of Americans are looking at this and they're like, wow, that's terrible. But that's like, you know, a thorough world country on that side of the world. Who cares? Why is this significant for Americans? I think it's very significant. I think we can see the remnants of the global globalist agenda in all parts of the world. And as the world goes, the United States will eventually follow suit. My very own neighbor saw this headline texted me very concerned about the implications not familiar with home education or the current circumstances, but understands the implications. He says, stay safe out there because he understands the implications of this as it trickles into our own country as well. Yeah. And we do have a lot of people, Lauren, I mean, prominent people, not just like cooks with tinfoil hats. Even you got a law professor at Harvard, Elizabeth, Martha, Lets. And we just got to get rid of homeschooling. We need a presumptive ban on home education. We had Connecticut just a few months ago now, pass a new law saying that parents have to beg for permission from CPS child welfare to be able to educate their own children. We've seen terrible bills, assaults on home education and parental rights in Illinois and Minnesota. And I think we're going to see a lot more. What's your take on where we're at right now in the United States? Is our freedom to educate our children at risk? I think the timeliness of your question couldn't be more appropriate following the celebration of Independence Day and the preservation of rights governments are instituted for the preservation of right. So what we have is a cataclysmic paradigm collision where we're saying who is actually in charge who has a right to educate? Is this the domain, the jurisdiction of the state? Or is this a God-given right that the governments are instituted to protect? And so these worldviews are in conflict and the timing could not be more imminent to protect these rights of parents. Yeah, it's really concerning, Lauren. And we're seeing now very troubling trends in the United States. And I think a lot of people in Republican states just assume that they're fine. Like our legislature would never do anything like that. And yet right now we see Republican states that have passed these so-called government-funded school choice options. Say, what we've got to have accountability? We can just give tax money out and not even know where it's going. Do you think people in Republican states are in danger here? Absolutely. I think the fact that the government education system has been raising our government officials is starting to show. We have a paradigm shift where we believe fundamentally that this state has an obligation to raise its citizens. And that is in direct opposition of our worldview that we think God gave parents a mandate to educate kids. And so even in our Republican conservative states, the sneaky worldview is penetrating and causing Republicans even to generate policies that reveal their paradigm or their beliefs that the state have a legitimate claim in this space of education. Yeah, 100%. And that brings me to Texas. God bless Texas. Everything's bigger in Texas. We all love Texas. You know, everybody's got their guns and their big pickup trucks. And they just had some great fourthed July celebrations. But they just passed a new measure. This just passed less than a couple weeks ago now, the state board of education mandated Bible reading in public schools all across the state of Texas. And you know, as for me, like I don't believe you can actually have an education without the Bible. So I mean, for me, it's like, well, of course, you have to have Bible reading. How could you call it education? Otherwise, but this raises, you know, I talked a little bit during the break, this raises some issues of separation of church and state. Like, you know, what about Islamic parents? Did they need to fund this kind of stuff? How do you see this very tricky issue? Yeah, you bring up separation of church and state. And I
think right now we're being forced to wrestle with the fact that we don't have a good grasp on what this means. It's being weaponized against Christian conservatives to say, don't bring your faith with you into government spaces. Well, we know that's not possible. People are their whole selves. They bring their their mind, their body, their soul with them wherever they go. And so it's being weaponized against Christians. On the other hand, we need to ask, where did this idea come from? I love the, is it Virginia statute for religious freedom that argued Thomas Jefferson argued Almighty God have made the mind free and he argues, you cannot compel, you cannot force people to attend religious activities or to fund them, which I think all of those arguments to the religious space actually have implications in the education space as well, because education, you know, we we would probably say education is discipleship. The only question is, what worldview are you discipling children into? And so if we're going to force people to either attend through compulsion laws or fund through taxpayer funded education, where in violation of these very ideas that lay the groundwork for American idea of separation in church and state. And so in Texas, all of these interesting things are center stage right now with the with both the Bible being added to the government curriculum, I'd argue that the education in Texas is already religious, but adding the Bible to it is another layer of obviousness, I wouldn't ever want to fund my non force my non Christian friends to fund Christian education in the same way I wouldn't want my Christian friends being compelled to fund Islamic education or secular humanist education. So the the reality we must wrestle with is that anytime we're forcing people to attend or to fund education, we're in violation of, you know, freedom of religion, freedom of conscience, those kinds of big American ideas. Yeah, and a simple answer to this would just be to go back to what the Bible teaches. Parents, you're responsible for the education of your children, stop asking your neighbor to pay for the education of your children or at least ask them nicely if they want to fund it voluntarily, rather than sending guys with guns over there to threaten them and take their property. Lauren, we've all got a couple minutes left. I wish we had more time. There's so many angles to discuss here, but before that you go, tell us a little bit about classical conversations. Tell us a little bit about the education, freedom, initiative. Absolutely. Classical conversations has been a pivotal experience in our family's life. I have seven kids at I-home school, and that's how I found classical conversations. That's how I found my love for American history, for liberalism, for the ideas that founded our country. And so it's been a huge eye opening experience. And what I love is being connected to this network of families that are all pursuing truth, goodness and beauty, and a Christian world view, a classical education within community. It's a beautiful experience that I love explaining to others. But within that network then we have this education independence initiative. It's what does it mean to take a classical Christian worldview into the public domain and carry that with us. And so in the education independence initiative, we're committed to building coalitions, to building relationships, and taking the experience of education and these founding principles in our Christian worldview into the public domain, arguing and contending for truth, goodness and beauty within the political space. And so if you're looking for us, we're at www.chooseeducationindependence.com. That is the home of the initiative. We're also on all social media platforms. We love to have monthly seminars, even where we wrestle with these ideas, because we know that we need to rally around them if we're going to have an effect within our republic. It requires us to build relationships to propagate ideas and contend for them in the public space. So that's a little bit about what we're doing. That's fantastic. I folks, I can agree with all of that. Like I said, I've had my own children in classical conversations since we've been back in America and it has been such a blessing for our family. It's just a second to none program. And I was actually involved from the beginning with the choose education independence. You can find that at chooseeducationindependence.com. If you're interested in learning more about classical conversations, you can find it at classicalconversations.com forward slash LSM. Lauren Gideon, thank you very much for joining us today. Thank you for all of your very important work. And I look forward to talking to you soon. Thank you. Thanks, God bless. Our folks stay with us. We will be right back with more here on the Center of Report. Hey guys, Alex Newman here. I want to tell you about a wonderful ministry that is doing incredibly important work. That's public school exit. I am very blessed to serve as the volunteer executive director. We've got an incredible team. And our mission is simple. Try to get as many children into the safe sanctuary of Christian education as humanly possible, as quickly as possible. Government schools are no place for children. Children need to learn about God. They need to learn the word of God. They need real education. They need to learn how to read, write, and do math. And we all know that's not what's happening in the government schools. In fact, what's happening is they're turning our children into revolutionaries, little radicals ready to burn down our churches and our civilization, not to mention our families. So go check it out today. PublicSchoolExit.com. We've got all kinds of resources for parents, for pastors, for taxpayers, for everybody down the line. And folks, this is one of the most critical battles. So go check out our partners at publicschoolexit.com. Concern about
these massive data centers is spreading across the country faster than the data centers themselves. Everywhere you go, every little town, every little hamlet, every little community, you're seeing hundreds, if not thousands of angry citizens getting together and demanding an end to the proliferation of these data centers. And nobody can really tell you what they do with their fore. But we all kind of have a bad feeling about them, like the people involved are just kind of creepy. They've got a long track record of spying on us. And of course, they don't share our values. Can't think of anybody better to discuss all of this. Then my friend Sean Patrick Terrio, he is the founder of Mark 37. He actually spent most of his career in the data center industry, although not for the evil reasons that so many of the bigwigs there today are doing. He also wrote a book, the book on this is called the data center co-location industry playbook, kind of like data centers for dummies. Sean, welcome to the program. Thank you very much for joining us. Glad to be here. And this is an apropos topic to jump back into. Now I'll tell you what, all across Florida has become like one of the most important topics that people are asking the gubernatorial candidates about every time one of these announcements comes out, they're going to be building a data center here or there. You're just getting like flooded city council meetings with angry and like transcends parties to Democrats, Republicans, liberals, the environmentalists or Mac because you're going to cut down the trees, the conservatives are Mac because you're going to spy on us and make our power cost up. What's the deal? I mean, you worked in these data centers. You worked in this industry for decades. How should we be thinking about this, Sean? Yeah, so I think most people don't quite realize that these data centers have been built for the last 30 years all over, not just the United States, but around the world. There's already over 3,500 data centers all over the United States and they're building on track to build another 1,000 or so over the next couple years. So people are focused on the net new ones and the whole reason why I actually left that industry is I know you know well as I started following the money and realized that the large private equity firms were buying up these facilities and these companies that were that owned and operated these facilities. So it's big real estate investment trusts. So it's not just your Facebook's, your Google's, your Microsoft's that own these facilities. They actually lease space inside these buildings from these big real estate investment trusts that are owned by the private equity firms and it's all the names that you know up from Black Rock to State Street, the Vanguard and big big funds that put their money and parked their money into this industry because there's a lot of money to be made on the real estate side because they're making anywhere from 30 to 50 dollars
a square foot in these facilities versus on the regular you know enterprise commercial real estate side they're making a tenth of that. So a lot of money started moving into that space and it was really catered towards the big tech companies because they were taking down not just like a couple cabinets worth of servers which is like maybe you can fit 15 servers inside 20 servers inside that cabinet. They were taking down entire swaths of space that consumes megawatts of power. So the whole industry started catering to the Google's, the Microsoft's, the Twitter's, the big tech infrastructure companies to give them all the space and power that they wanted is quickly as possible because they were consuming those leases and taking down all the space and power. So first thing people have to realize is look around these data centers already exist everywhere. The second is people are concerned about a lot of different things environmental's yes, consuming the water noise pollution all these different aspects that come into the data center industry but what's very important to realize is the new technology that operates and runs these facilities doesn't require all that much power and really shouldn't require water. So my question these days is who's designing these new data centers that say that they're going to consume all of this water and all this power and from a power perspective no municipality is going to allow a new data center owner operator to come into their community without charging them millions of dollars if not tens of millions of dollars to build out new substations and new infrastructure so that they can support that new load. So I think there is to some degree a little bit of misinformation going on in the industry where people are like well we're going to have brownouts and blackouts because all the power is going to be run to these data centers if they if they get built but my big question is from a water perspective these data centers should not be using water. So my conspiracy hat comes on and I'm saying well where's that water than going to be used for what's going on underneath these facilities and I get very confused as to what's happening or they're just being designed by like really old old architects and old engineers who don't have new newer technologies that don't require anywhere near that much water. So there's a lot of weird strange things going on but to your point one of our people on our team actually was at one of these rallies up in Spokane, Washington and he was up and he's a constitutional Christian patriot. He was up there with an antifa member talking out about the data center at the same event so it's you know you're right it spans both aisles these days. Yeah it's funny politics sometimes makes very strange bed fellows. Now you actually started a company with privacy in mind and I've got one of your products the ghost phones here mark 37. I just love this thing it's got an open source operating system designed to shield your privacy. Hopefully we can keep some of our data from being gobbled up by these data centers and then being weaponized against us. We've got a few minutes left Sean tell us a little bit about mark 37 why you started it and I do want to tell people you can get on a webinar with Sean's team if you go to mark 37.com forward slash Liberty you can hop on a webinar with their guys and they'll walk you through this but Sean tell us a little bit about the company why you decided to start it. Sure so these these phones that we carry on in our pockets and the laptops that we use all day every day we just have to realize that these are psychological warfare weapons and it's it's a tool they're tools at the end of the day and we have to reclaim ownership of these tools so just like a data center a data center is really just a technology asset and in the hands of a psychopath that technology asset is going to be used to harvest steel manage all of our data and then use it to further influence and try to enslave us. That's the same thing that's happening with our devices so your phones your laptops your tablets all these things if the operating system of those devices is controlled by a company that's controlled and owned and operated by psychopaths that's a problem that's like handing someone a firearm to go fight in a war and saying that all of the data all of the comms all of the GPS tracking the camera the microphone on that firearm that's being recorded is being fed to the enemy that you're about to go fight like that makes no sense so this whole our company is really taking the tech that exists that geeks who are interested in privacy and security already know how to use and making it accessible to everyday people like you who can say hey I don't want to not use technology I just want to use it safer but that requires education requires some training which is why I do highly recommend people check out mark mark37.com for its less liberty because you can actually watch a 90 minute webinar that where we walk through all the ways that you're getting screwed by big tech right now and then really what's most important is what we can do about it because there's so many things we can do about it and that's why you know I'm wearing the shirt that I have now this is our company shirt that says faith is a verb but on the back it says no more it says no more excuses because we have no more excuses the technology is there this is like someone saying well I have to keep eating junk food because it's the only option I have available to me when that's simply not the case you have to just do a little bit of research and you can find where the local farmers market is or where the fresh produce and protein is that you can go to buy so we're just making all this information and technology accessible useful and then giving you a community of people that you can interact with and work with use these tools with yeah Sean I'm really glad there's people
like you on the job I've been saying for years we need Christians and conservatives and patriots to be involved in technology otherwise the evil doers are going to run wild and we're not even going to know what they're doing so folks go check it out you can find them at mark37.com forward slash liberty that's an awesome company we're just so pleased to go to partner with them I'll tell you what I just have loved this ghost phone that I got totally de-google and not sending my data to all the evil doers it's like a little bit easier at night Sean really appreciate you coming on thanks for what you're doing we'll get you back soon and thanks for sharing your insights on these data centers I really appreciate it you're very welcome you know we're fine if you get more questions all right hey thanks so much folks that was Sean Patrick Terry O'Founder of mark37.com stay with us we're going to be right back with one more segment here on the SEMPTN report your children are your legacy treat them as such when you're home school with classical conversations they connect you with a local community of a like-minded families not only learned together but do life together they equip homeschool parents just like you or grandparents with the confidence to raise bright observant students who have a lifelong love of learning please visit classicalconversations.com forward slash lsm to learn more welcome back to the center of report i Alex newman your host here thanks for staying with us folks the White House just dropped an incredibly significant report it's called uh saving america's story just in time for our 250th celebration of independence it's a marvelous report about the horrors that are happening through the taxpayer funded Smithsonian museum system they're promoting social justice they're promoting the idea that america is racist they're looking at history through a marxist lens joining us to discuss all of this and much more we have a very special guest Mike Gonzales he is the angelus aradondo e pleribus unum senior fellow at the heritage foundation he's got an incredible report about this at the examiner uh mike welcome to the program thanks for joining us thanks for having me on i hear you very well excellent it's great to have you mike thank you uh so talk to us about this stunning report exposing some of what's been going on with the leadership at the smith sonia well it's symbolically dropped just before the fireworks i was in an apple as myself with part of my family you know and it was a wonderful an apple is was was the nation's capital for a few for a short time between 1782 and 1783 and then i saw that the report dropped after that nobody just before that and it's symbolic because what this with this masonian has done it has it has not just ignored and failed to celebrate our glorious history and in what a national museum is for national museums are there to transmit culture and heritage to future generations to some of europe's best museums alprado that they that you know does did in spain l'l'ouvo those that in france this masonian does the opposite it's there to denigrate american heritage and history especially on the present leadership and i'm talking specifically about secretary lani bunch the third anthia heartig at the at the history museum but all of the museums are bad even the year in space museum has bad exhibits i don't know how they can spoil that so let me just put a final touch on this and maybe you want to talk more about this because prior to the dismiss the the anniversary of the 250th anniversary of the declaration the big story was these communists candidates winning elections from new york to the west coast now we see why our institutions starting with our biggest museum complex the biggest in the world this masonian not only does not teach them to love america and respect america it teaches americans to hate america and denigrate it yeah it really does it's uh frankly it's grotesque i mean it's at the point where i don't even feel like i can take my children to the smith sony and to learn about our country because they're going to be they're going to have their minds filled with poisonous ideas denigrating our founders denigrating uh the incredible things that our nation has always stood for uh mike there are some recommendations in the report i talked to us about what you think the trump administration and what the congress could do to try to rein this in well congress i think they needs to hold hearings in congress needs to be serious about we we now appropriate one point zero eight billion with the b dollars a year that's a lot of change from their hard paying american taxpayer and gives it to the smith sony and it's about 63% of its of its budget uh so the smith sony has to be responsive to the american taxpayer um but i think ultimately what needs to happen is at the board of regents the board of regents which is headed by the chief justice of the united states robberts and by the vice president of the united states jade vans uh genre uh genre obberts and jade vans need to get serious about firing lawny bunch the third secretary of the smith sony athia heartig the head of the history museum uh kevin gover um they have to stop the latino museum from being built the latino museum is going to be also a part of the smith sony and is going to be a hot house uh an incubator of hatred of america grievances of america this this thing can now be built um so so so we need to fire the leadership and and try to to to to to fix what is fixable there and why i say that what is fixable you take a look at museum the museum industry the curators the art conservators the art historians if you take a look at at the the the the the nations that make the political parties they're over 95 96 97 percent democrat these are very liberal um uh professions now so so we need to start from the very beginning and how to fix me to figure out how to fix museums yeah uh my i get the sense
that the ridiculous situation at the smith sony and is more a symptom of the problem than the problem itself how did we get into this mess and and what kind of like systemic changes need to be made across society so there's something like this doesn't happen again yeah you know i wrote my last book with cathart and gorgon we did we wrote it put together uh we published it two years ago next gen Marxism on how they they they they left they did Marxist left that taken over all the cultural institutions this is the result of that but they had taken over k through 12 education they had taken over higher ed they have taken over the museums they have taken over they the the the the art houses they have taken over the the publishers they have taken over the media anything all the industries that that create meaning because the left the Marxist left one cultural in the 60s the understood the power of culture they they gave up on on on revolution and they want to obtain the Marxism this way and indeed we're seeing again to go back to this communists being elected with zora mondani the mayor of new york city our biggest city is a communist he's not a democratic socialist he's a communist who who who quotes Marx not just the manifesto you know manifesto is quoted all the time by everybody because his is seeped into society so deeply he quotes different parts of Marxist writings and he wants to take property away from landlords this is communism 101 and we you know that we have the katie katie wilson the mayor of Seattle this is coast to coast these are communists um and why do we have that because the institutions starting with the Smithsonian have taught them to to to be ashamed of their heritage and of their history the opposite of what national museums should do this is grotesque as you put it yourself yeah and it's not going to end well folks i can tell you haven't lived all over the world you can see where this is going it's not going to end well if we don't take care of this uh michael and zala's i want to thank you for coming on the program today senior fellow at the heritage institute really appreciated the heritage foundation thank you for joining us and thanks for the work you're doing thank you for having for letting me speak thank you absolutely it's an honor and a pleasure all right folks uh check out the report you can find it at the white house website you can also find miche's column on this at the examiner dropping on july at six folks we really do need to take care of this it's not okay that our taxes are being used to indoctrinate the next generation of americans the next generation of politicians and business leaders we have got to get a handle on this if we want to pass our country on to the next generation in better shape than we found it i want to thank you for tuning in i'm Alex newman host of the center report it's great to have you with us really appreciate all that you do for god and our country hope you had a wonderful and very blessed celebration of our nation's independence we shall see you next week until then thanks for watching thanks for listening god bless you all
