[00:01:07] This is the FCB Podcast Network. This is Pillow Talk with Alii Michelle on the FCB Podcast Network.
[00:01:25] Welcome to an episode of Pillow Talk with Alii Michelle. I am your host, Alii Michelle. Please don't mind my nasally vocals. Your girl got a rhinoplasty so I'm healing.
[00:01:40] But today we have a very special guest. You may have seen her on social media. She is a content creator slash influencer.
[00:01:47] She goes by the name American Made Mama, also known as Sarah Rankin. We have so much to discuss and I cannot wait for you guys to meet her.
[00:01:57] Hey, I have the American Made Mama, aka Sarah Rankin, here with me today and I thank you so much for coming on.
[00:02:06] I know we spoke brief before coming on this show, but can you just give our listeners a little glimpse of who you are, what you do and everything kind of in between?
[00:02:17] Yeah. Hey, Alii. Thanks for having me. I'm super excited to be here. You know, I have been an ungovernable American Made Mama since the day I was born.
[00:02:27] I was raised by rednecks in a little garage in Michigan.
[00:02:30] Yes!
[00:02:31] You know, made my way through school, paid a whole bunch of money to go to college for an art degree that, quite frankly, apps like Canva have totally replaced and made irrelevant.
[00:02:43] So, after that, I became an entrepreneur and I've made a couple of million dollars just working from my phone, kind of running my own gig for the last 15 years.
[00:02:54] Had two babies, home birthed them, homeschool now, and, you know, we're really a work from home, homeschool, home birth, just kind of conservative family.
[00:03:04] I wouldn't have said I was conservative, you know, a few years ago.
[00:03:08] I would have said I'm really just independent, like let's not mess with each other, right?
[00:03:13] Right.
[00:03:14] But now, I definitely align more along conservative alignment, I guess.
[00:03:20] And ultimately, my goal is just to be brave enough to have conversations that matter every day, whether it's about politics or moving ahead in business and life and parenting and just sharing that experience with as many people as possible.
[00:03:34] I love that you said brave because I've heard that word be thrown around with conservatives a lot lately.
[00:03:40] Like, people come up to me like, you're so brave.
[00:03:42] I'm like, I'm literally just talking into my phone.
[00:03:44] But they're like, well, like, you have no idea how afraid, like, I actually am to speak my opinion because of my job or my friends or my family.
[00:03:54] But I don't know if you, like, had this happen to you, but, like, I lost friends and family members.
[00:04:01] They refused to talk to me after I got so vocal on social media.
[00:04:06] Like, they, like, don't, don't, don't mind my bikini pictures.
[00:04:09] Like, yeah, you can still talk, like, you know what I'm saying?
[00:04:11] But when I use my mind, it's like total, no, they, they, they wanted nothing to do with me.
[00:04:16] Actually, until recently, like, one of my liberal family members, we agreed on a specific candidate in the local election.
[00:04:25] So I thought that was really cool.
[00:04:27] But yeah, you use the word brave.
[00:04:29] And I just kind of, like, want that to be reiterated to other people who are afraid to use their mind because you are being brave.
[00:04:37] Yeah, I mean, I think at this point, they always say the truth will set you free.
[00:04:42] And I think that's a really common misconception at this point because it feels like the truth will lock you up.
[00:04:48] Yes!
[00:04:49] It's been, for me, it's been since about 2016.
[00:04:52] You know, my husband, we've been together for 15 years.
[00:04:55] He's a military veteran.
[00:04:56] He's been overseas multiple tours.
[00:05:00] And he was able to come home.
[00:05:02] And now, you know, he's a full-time dad and we run the business together.
[00:05:05] But it started in probably 2016 for us when we decided we were going to have a family.
[00:05:11] And we started really looking into, like, the vaccine schedule.
[00:05:14] And when you start looking into, like, wait, what's going on here?
[00:05:17] How did we go from here to here?
[00:05:19] And you just, I just kind of started digging.
[00:05:21] And it became part of the dig.
[00:05:23] And so I started speaking out then about the things that I was finding that just didn't make sense.
[00:05:29] It didn't make sense that we were the sickest generation in America.
[00:05:32] And we have all of this knowledge and all of these tools and incredible ingredients that we could be using for good.
[00:05:38] And, you know, it really just all started to get jumbled up for me.
[00:05:42] The illusion started.
[00:05:44] I started to see through that veil, you know.
[00:05:46] And I've always prayed for eyes to see, a voice to speak.
[00:05:49] Like, God, give me the words that people need to hear.
[00:05:51] Help me be brave enough, bold enough.
[00:05:53] Use me.
[00:05:54] Mark my life, God.
[00:05:55] And I always kind of said that prayer, meaning business.
[00:05:58] You know, I was always trying to make my way out of the garage, make some money, provide for my family.
[00:06:04] You know, not be the statistic and just continue to repeat generational patterns.
[00:06:09] Like, be the one to break us free.
[00:06:12] And so being brave and bold, I think, has kind of always been in my DNA.
[00:06:16] But ultimately, if you see something that's wrong, we have to share it.
[00:06:22] And I think we have to be paying attention right now to the people who are being silenced.
[00:06:26] The scientists who are being silenced, the, you know, data analysts who are being silenced right now.
[00:06:33] There's a lot happening.
[00:06:34] And I can totally see how it would be so overwhelming that you could just get lost in translation or be that person that could put your head in the sand.
[00:06:41] But for me, in 2016, when I started to really wake up, it's like I couldn't go back to sheep.
[00:06:48] I just kept finding one rabbit hole that led to another and another and another.
[00:06:53] And I could go through 100 with you now.
[00:06:55] But at the end of the day, they all tie together.
[00:06:59] And speaking about it, as you said, people are saying, oh, you're so brave to talk about these topics.
[00:07:03] And I think that illusion of threat of losing our right to free speech has always been there.
[00:07:10] But now today, it feels even scarier with things looming like social credit scores and things like that.
[00:07:16] Like, I'm going to camp, girlfriend, if that's not happening.
[00:07:19] Me and you both.
[00:07:21] We're already on the list.
[00:07:23] My neighbor's already got me on the bus.
[00:07:25] Like, she's telling me in every day because I keep that flag up, you know?
[00:07:29] Yeah.
[00:07:29] So who do you think – I mean, obviously, you're a conservative.
[00:07:32] But, like, speaking to maybe a woman who's listening who's kind of, like, considering Kamala because she's a woman and protecting, quote, unquote, reproductive rights.
[00:07:41] I mean, we know that.
[00:07:42] But what would you – so for her voice, essentially, because that's what's most at risk.
[00:07:48] And I think a lot of women are failing to kind of see that, that actually our First Amendment right, like, our voice of reason and anything that we can, you know, do or speak on, I think they're failing to see that because they're so absorbed in that reproductive right.
[00:08:03] But between each candidate, who do you think, for this woman who is listening, would be the one who is actually protecting women?
[00:08:12] Well, I mean, let's just be honest.
[00:08:15] The radical left hasn't been able to identify what a woman is for the last couple of years.
[00:08:20] And now all of a sudden you want to make history touting off the back of a woman who's changed her name and the way she says it, has 15 different accents.
[00:08:29] And I'm sorry.
[00:08:30] You know, this is a little bit harsh.
[00:08:32] And here comes the redneck in me.
[00:08:34] But, like, what's a prostitute going to do?
[00:08:36] Whatever you pay her to do.
[00:08:38] And I think we all need to be honest with the fact that she has a really sketchy past.
[00:08:45] Making history is putting the first woman in office is not worth sacrificing all of our freedoms and this country and what's left of it.
[00:08:54] Because if we're also, you know, speaking realistically, we're already being replaced.
[00:09:01] American birth rates are at the lowest that they have ever been.
[00:09:05] Your reproductive rights are already at stake because you're being poisoned through the air, food, pharma, everything you watch on TV.
[00:09:14] And now you've tricked yourself into believing that eliminating life is the one freedom we need to be focused on.
[00:09:21] But really what we need to be focused on are the things that matter, the right to have this conversation.
[00:09:28] You know, we won't be able to have this conversation 10 years from now if things keep going the way that they're going.
[00:09:34] You remember the Chinese were murdering their daughters because they needed boys to reproduce.
[00:09:39] That was not, like, a made-up story.
[00:09:42] They were actually doing that.
[00:09:44] I actually did not know that.
[00:09:45] That's insane.
[00:09:46] That's wild.
[00:09:47] I can't remember what time period it was.
[00:09:49] But, you know, they were only allowed one child per family.
[00:09:53] And they wanted boys to reproduce.
[00:09:56] So it's wild.
[00:09:57] And so I think the candidate we should be paying attention to is Donald Trump.
[00:10:01] And as much as they really flipped that script, right?
[00:10:05] They want us to remember the brash things that he said in a locker room on the golf course in his mid-30s.
[00:10:13] You know, and let's, let me be honest.
[00:10:15] Like, we have the most vulgar conversations amongst ourselves when we're doing promotions.
[00:10:20] Like, we literally say the most, you would make a man blush.
[00:10:25] God forgive me for the details I have spilled with my girlfriends and the ish that I have on.
[00:10:31] You know, call me whatever you want.
[00:10:35] I'm not going to vote for somebody.
[00:10:37] Making a woman does not make you a qualifier.
[00:10:40] Being a man does not make you a qualifier.
[00:10:42] We need a strong alpha right now to guide this country through these very precarious steps that we find ourselves in.
[00:10:50] Right.
[00:10:50] I mean, in the blink of an eye, it's all gone.
[00:10:54] And I don't understand.
[00:10:56] But it's when you really sit down and you watch what's happening on mainstream media and you watch that, you know, it is a lot of information to sift through.
[00:11:04] And if you haven't kind of already awoken to something, if you're still asleep right now, I don't know how.
[00:11:09] I am really trying to empathize and understand.
[00:11:12] But the optics are everything.
[00:11:15] If you're not paying attention, optics are everything.
[00:11:18] And that's what they've got people twisted on.
[00:11:21] If you've taken the time to watch Trump in long form interviews like Joe Rogan or to follow, you know, on TCN, they've got Art of the Surge where you can watch him working with his campaign.
[00:11:33] If you're not watching things like that or listening to things like Sean Ryan, where they're walking you through why General Kelly was, you know, ultimately compromised.
[00:11:43] And there's a whole story there.
[00:11:45] You know, he directly benefits from having the borders open.
[00:11:48] So, of course, he's talking trash like we as women know that as well.
[00:11:51] The game of telephone, the game of drama, the game of tea.
[00:11:54] Oh, yeah.
[00:11:55] And it's like, pay attention.
[00:11:58] Just pay attention.
[00:11:58] So, at the end of the day, it's Trump we need to be looking at.
[00:12:02] He's said things like IVF is going to be taken care of by your government.
[00:12:07] And if not, mandated by your insurance to be, you know, to be paid for if you need assistance like IVF.
[00:12:15] Oh, my gosh.
[00:12:16] So, yeah, I'm so happy that you brought that up.
[00:12:18] And I don't mean to cut you off.
[00:12:19] But, like, my – I'm going to just throw under the bus.
[00:12:22] My best friend, she actually was like, oh, she pissed me off.
[00:12:29] Like, she was actually somebody who stopped talking to me.
[00:12:32] My best friend.
[00:12:34] But she came around.
[00:12:35] But so she's dating a guy who's – he's a diehard conservative.
[00:12:40] She texted me a few months ago and she's like, I am now a conservative.
[00:12:45] I'm like, what?
[00:12:46] Like, so –
[00:12:47] Thank you, Jesus.
[00:12:48] Yeah, I'm like – like, when a strong man and somebody who is so confident within themselves directs a woman or guides a woman and just shows what it actually is to, like, be that alpha male.
[00:13:03] Or you know what I'm saying?
[00:13:03] Like, not even an alpha male, but somebody who actually sees past, like, propaganda.
[00:13:08] And then a woman – we look towards our men.
[00:13:11] And I don't care what anybody says.
[00:13:13] But so when she – when the IVF thing came, because she was still kind of, like, figuring out, like, oh, do I want to even vote this year?
[00:13:19] But I, as somebody who is going through infertility issues for the past, like, seven years, now that he brought up the IVF, like, that locked her in.
[00:13:31] And it's just amazing because before she may have been, like, oh, you know, IVF, whatever, you know, whatever.
[00:13:37] But, like, I think now that she sees – she's also had her own trauma where it's, like, I think she's finally, like, wow, like, life is actually being glorified instead of talking about taking away that life like you talked about earlier.
[00:13:51] And I think IVF is huge.
[00:13:53] I think that's huge.
[00:13:55] Yeah, and they, you know, they use these radical ideas of why we should allow these insane – these insane processes of abortion.
[00:14:05] Like, letting a baby, you know, be nine months delivered.
[00:14:09] Does it deserve medical care?
[00:14:10] You know, it's crazy.
[00:14:11] So if we're talking about protecting women and what we as women should be focusing on, as shiny as an object as it might be, to say, ooh, a first woman president in office.
[00:14:21] We went through this with Hillary Clinton, too, and I was like, hell no.
[00:14:25] She is not the woman to define and represent us.
[00:14:29] Like, we can do better.
[00:14:29] We can – look at Tulsi Gabbard.
[00:14:31] I mean, she would be an incredible woman candidate.
[00:14:34] And I was kind of hoping she would be VP.
[00:14:36] Oh, my gosh.
[00:14:36] I fell in love with her.
[00:14:37] Yeah.
[00:14:38] You know, I like Vance.
[00:14:39] I like Vance.
[00:14:40] And if you're a woman that is concerned about your rights, your reproductive rights, your future, and what the world will look like for your daughters, looking at Trump, you know, say what you will about him.
[00:14:50] He's a grandfather.
[00:14:50] He's got a big heart.
[00:14:52] He's got dozens and dozens and thousands of stories of how many times he's provided for people who were in need.
[00:14:59] Yeah.
[00:14:59] And he's shown this country.
[00:15:02] Hudson, I think, he, like, put them up in his hotel for, like, months for free and kept them safe when all her stuff was happening.
[00:15:08] Yeah.
[00:15:09] Look at the linemen that were just in North Carolina.
[00:15:12] You know, he housed them all out in Florida, housed all the linemen, I think it was.
[00:15:17] But at the end of the day, you've got Kennedy also on board with Trump, which is absolutely incredible because the first thing he's going to do when he gets into office and he said they've already given him power where he'll be overseeing things like the FDA, the NIH, parts of the USDA.
[00:15:34] And that's the CDC, right?
[00:15:36] We need that.
[00:15:37] We need that oversight and that somebody willing to fight for what's right for human health because we are the sickest we've ever been as Americans in the most incredible ways.
[00:15:51] These terrible cancers and everything that have happened after COVID.
[00:15:53] We need somebody like Kennedy who's going to get in there, say, pull the floor head out of the water.
[00:15:57] Please.
[00:15:58] It's making, you know, it's turning the frogs.
[00:16:00] Yay.
[00:16:00] Like, it's, you know, that whole story.
[00:16:03] I was like, Alex Jones was right.
[00:16:05] Everybody said he was crazy.
[00:16:07] And now, look, look, there's studies.
[00:16:09] He was telling the truth.
[00:16:10] He's just, it's the way he sensationalizes, you know, the conversation that people want to doubt.
[00:16:17] And I feel like they did that with Trump in the media.
[00:16:19] And this campaign, he's done such a great job at presenting himself and biding his time.
[00:16:24] But, you know, you've already got Kennedy overseeing these things that he'll be able to say yay and nay to things like, you know, ingredients in our food that are already banned in Europe because they're dangerous for our endocrine systems, which are directly related to our hormones and the development of women and boys and reproductive rights.
[00:16:44] So it goes all the way back.
[00:16:46] And at the end of the day, Trump has said there's not going to be a national abortion ban.
[00:16:52] That's not what he intends to do.
[00:16:53] Just give it to the state.
[00:16:55] And for those of you who are like, well, my state deserves this, then go get involved on a local level because that's what we each and all need to do is take control of the things we can take control of and control your state.
[00:17:06] And if you don't like the state you're in, get the heck out.
[00:17:09] Yep.
[00:17:10] I totally agree.
[00:17:11] And with that, we'll get on a break.
[00:17:12] Yeah, get out of your state if you don't like it.
[00:17:14] All right.
[00:17:16] Yeah, I know.
[00:17:16] So we're going to go on a break in two seconds.
[00:17:24] Welcome back from the break.
[00:17:25] I am your host, Allie Michelle, and we have American Made Mama, a.k.a. Sarah Raikin here.
[00:17:31] And we were just talking about just a whole bunch of stuff.
[00:17:34] I just love this girl.
[00:17:36] I know.
[00:17:36] We could bounce all over the place.
[00:17:38] What does Trump call it?
[00:17:39] The weave?
[00:17:40] Yeah.
[00:17:40] Yeah.
[00:17:41] Something like that.
[00:17:41] Yeah.
[00:17:43] I wanted to kind of just touch base on if so, I want to go back to the media for a quick second.
[00:17:49] Um, so the advice on, cause like you said, there was so much to swift through and some
[00:17:55] people were lazy.
[00:17:57] We're, we're lazy.
[00:17:58] We'll admit it.
[00:17:59] You know, um, how would you, um, since you've been doing this for a while, what would be like
[00:18:06] your recommendation on how to kind of do the research and not fall for the propaganda?
[00:18:11] Like, can you give like a few things to just give a woman to just be like, okay, well, that's
[00:18:17] a lie.
[00:18:17] You know what I'm saying?
[00:18:19] Oh my gosh.
[00:18:20] How to not fall for it.
[00:18:21] I mean, I guess for me as one of my skillsets is I've got really great pattern recognition.
[00:18:26] So since I've been paying attention, you know, over the years, you can start to spot the things,
[00:18:32] but it has gotten harder with AI and things like that.
[00:18:35] What can we trust?
[00:18:36] And I think for me, I just try to find multiple sources that can corroborate a story, independent
[00:18:41] sources, podcasts right now, look for the independent journalists, pay attention to how people are
[00:18:47] being paid.
[00:18:48] You know, at the end of the day, the, the reality is the mainstream media and what we have access
[00:18:54] to on TV through cable, through satellite, they're owned by the same five parent companies
[00:19:01] companies that are funded by the biggest, baddest bad guys, right?
[00:19:06] Like the American politics is really the bottom that it's, it's what we can see from our view
[00:19:12] from here.
[00:19:13] But if you think about this, it goes so much deeper and why, why would they want to control
[00:19:18] all this was, uh, you know, a question I was often asked by friends who were just starting
[00:19:22] to wake up.
[00:19:24] And I'm like, you know, the battle between good and evil has always existed and controlling
[00:19:29] people, data, profit, it all comes back to money.
[00:19:32] If you follow the money, you can usually decipher whether it's right or wrong.
[00:19:37] And I think this is where as women, you need to really trust your intuition on a lot of things.
[00:19:44] If it feels wrong, it's probably wrong.
[00:19:46] Um, and you know, if you find yourself just being a woman and getting involved in the drama
[00:19:52] and the gossip and the tea and falling for every little thing, I just ask you to pause
[00:19:56] and question why it is that, um, that you believe it.
[00:20:00] Is it because Fox said so, or ABC said so, or the view said so, or some of these programs
[00:20:05] that we've allowed to just get up here and kind of direct society for so long.
[00:20:11] I hate to say it, but like my grandma always used to tell me, turn off MTV, MTV is the devil.
[00:20:16] And I was like, you're crazy.
[00:20:18] You know, like MTV is cool.
[00:20:21] Reality, it's a reality show.
[00:20:23] And now I'm like, oh no.
[00:20:26] Oh no.
[00:20:27] It was, she was so right.
[00:20:28] The media is owned.
[00:20:29] Hollywood is owned.
[00:20:31] If you pay attention to all the celebrities endorsing her right now, that appears to be
[00:20:36] a red flag.
[00:20:37] They are all involved in various things.
[00:20:40] Yeah.
[00:20:41] We've seen some of it exposed to like the Nickelodeon scandals and Epstein, which we haven't
[00:20:46] even seen the list.
[00:20:47] Why haven't we seen the list?
[00:20:48] Trump's threatened to release the list upon becoming president.
[00:20:51] And suddenly every celebrity in the world wants to come out against him.
[00:20:55] Come on.
[00:20:56] These were his friends and people he, you know, had in social circles.
[00:21:01] They wanted him at every party when, before he ran.
[00:21:04] The only reason they're against him now is because he's going to expose the things that have
[00:21:08] been happening when he says the enemy within, he's talking about the people on the inside
[00:21:15] who are pulling strings, manipulating the good old blue collared people that you and I in
[00:21:21] Ohio.
[00:21:22] They are so afraid of being exposed, like so terrified.
[00:21:27] That's, you know, that's the, that's the biggest thing.
[00:21:29] That is.
[00:21:30] So what do I pay attention to?
[00:21:31] I mean, I would find your podcast that you can get into.
[00:21:34] I love Sean Ryan.
[00:21:35] He's great.
[00:21:35] Lex Friedman.
[00:21:36] That shows like yours, Allie, where you're bringing on guests, you're talking about ideas,
[00:21:40] turn off the news, turn off cable, stop paying attention to the Apple alerts coming on your
[00:21:45] phone.
[00:21:45] We know Apple, like we all have to switch phones, right?
[00:21:48] We're going to have to.
[00:21:49] Yeah.
[00:21:49] Elon, I want Elon's phone.
[00:21:51] Yeah.
[00:21:52] The unplugged phone is a great one if you're looking for that, but we have to align with
[00:21:56] companies that support our values and pay attention.
[00:21:59] You're paying attention to the ingredients in almost everything.
[00:22:03] When you have a baby, at least if you have some semblance of an awakening, you start to
[00:22:08] pay attention and you need to do the same thing with the things you consume like media
[00:22:12] and broadcast.
[00:22:13] I don't know if you know this, Allie, but 300 radio stations.
[00:22:17] Okay.
[00:22:17] The largest FCC trade ever to happen in history.
[00:22:21] They've never, it was like something like they had never approved more than two broadcasting
[00:22:26] stations sold to one person at a time.
[00:22:29] And they just approved 300 and sold it to none other than George Soros.
[00:22:36] Oh, heck.
[00:22:37] Oh, I didn't know that.
[00:22:38] Yes.
[00:22:39] So even George Soros is bad for those who don't know.
[00:22:42] He's like Dr.
[00:22:43] Evil, like the real Dr.
[00:22:44] Evil.
[00:22:45] Yeah.
[00:22:45] Right.
[00:22:46] He's funding all the nefarious things you don't want funded.
[00:22:48] He was partly responsible for those pallets of bricks showing up in 2020 and crazy things
[00:22:53] just appearing.
[00:22:54] And like, was that stuff really happening?
[00:22:56] The answer is yes.
[00:22:57] And if you can go and use platforms like X, you know, you have to be careful because you'll
[00:23:02] see things on there.
[00:23:02] You don't want to see.
[00:23:03] Yeah.
[00:23:04] But at the end of the day, it's a place where I can go and I try to see, like, if you see
[00:23:08] a crazy video, if there's only one perspective and 10,000, you know, people are sharing it,
[00:23:14] that's not something I typically go and share because where's, you're the only person that
[00:23:19] saw this.
[00:23:20] Right.
[00:23:21] Right.
[00:23:21] Yeah.
[00:23:22] Yeah.
[00:23:22] The only perspective of the wildfire.
[00:23:23] Like, come on.
[00:23:24] Right.
[00:23:24] There's gotta be more.
[00:23:25] Do your due diligence and find the people you can plug into and trust and question everything.
[00:23:30] And it's, you know, but have faith and know that in the end, God wins because that's
[00:23:34] truly what it's about.
[00:23:35] But discernment, finding good companies and good people are key right now.
[00:23:41] I like Daily Wire.
[00:23:42] I like, you know, stuff like that.
[00:23:46] Oh, and like just talking to real people, talking to your neighbors, talking to your friends,
[00:23:50] just having conversation and getting locally involved, I think is also so important.
[00:23:54] Despite if people might call you crazy or look at you weird.
[00:23:58] I know it's more comfortable to like go on YouTube or whatever, but you also have to
[00:24:02] have that like face of, you know, that conversation that some people don't want to have.
[00:24:06] But I think you will learn a lot from people who you would not necessarily go up to.
[00:24:11] But Sarah, you are so beautiful in every aspect, mentally, physically, everything.
[00:24:17] Like you're so beautiful.
[00:24:18] And I thank you so much for coming on.
[00:24:20] But can you please let my followers know where to get you at and how to find you on social
[00:24:25] media?
[00:24:27] Yeah, you know, I'm a little bit all over the place.
[00:24:30] I'm on Facebook, Sarah Rankin.
[00:24:31] I'm on Instagram at American underscore made dot mama couldn't, I couldn't secure the
[00:24:39] whole deal.
[00:24:40] I had to do the underscore and the dot, but I did and I committed.
[00:24:42] So that's where we're at American underscore made dot mama on Instagram.
[00:24:45] And it's American made mama on TikTok.
[00:24:48] I don't do as much over there because, you know, that's just kind of a search function
[00:24:52] for me at this point.
[00:24:53] But I love it and I love connecting with you guys.
[00:24:56] And at the end of the day, I think we all have to really just focus on if trouble may
[00:24:59] come in our lifetime, let it be so our children can live in peace.
[00:25:02] And we are there.
[00:25:03] We are on troublesome times.
[00:25:06] If you believe in God and you believe in Jesus, like take the time to pray for our nation,
[00:25:10] pray for our leaders, pray for our voters.
[00:25:12] A lot of things are already happening.
[00:25:14] I think we already know it's not going to be pretty no matter what is announced in the
[00:25:19] next 72 hours.
[00:25:21] Because I don't think it's before we wrap up.
[00:25:22] Who, how do you think it's going to go?
[00:25:23] Just quick little blip.
[00:25:25] What, how do you think it was?
[00:25:26] I think if it was a free fair election and if we had all 50 states hands in a pot, let's
[00:25:33] really show what the people have voted.
[00:25:34] Trump would have more votes than any president in American history.
[00:25:39] No question of a doubt.
[00:25:41] But I think it comes back to optics and, you know, they control the media and that is dangerous.
[00:25:47] That's dangerous because there's only so much we can do.
[00:25:51] And getting involved on the local level means we can still contest things.
[00:25:54] And, you know, we do have some semblance of power that we can handle legally.
[00:25:59] There's websites like tacticalcivics.com where you can get involved in little groups that'll
[00:26:04] show you how to legally start doing things, you know, in your own community.
[00:26:08] But I think it's going to get messy.
[00:26:11] You know, the stock market numbers are showing that we could have some real trouble ahead
[00:26:15] in the economic market.
[00:26:17] We know things like the BRICS nation have already decided to move away from the dollar
[00:26:22] and there's some changes happening there.
[00:26:24] So, you know, I think it could be a really tough time in America.
[00:26:30] And the biggest piece of advice that I have is just, you know, pray your way through, connect
[00:26:35] with like-minded community, be prepared to, you know, be a community.
[00:26:40] That's what it's going to come down to.
[00:26:42] We as a nation are still the government's number one threat because we have the right to
[00:26:47] bear arms.
[00:26:47] And we have a lot of rights available to us that I think people are going to be questioning
[00:26:53] whether or not it's the time to use.
[00:26:55] But I think they're going to show her as the win.
[00:26:59] I didn't, I don't want to say it and we're bringing it to existence, but I think we're
[00:27:02] going to show her as the win.
[00:27:03] And my heart is really kind of preparing for that because this could be the death of a country
[00:27:11] that I was raised believing was one nation, you know, under God, justice and liberty for
[00:27:18] all.
[00:27:18] And I don't think that's going to be the case for us Americans.
[00:27:22] I think we're being replaced from the inside.
[00:27:24] And, you know, there's a lot of illegal people who want to do nefarious things or who have
[00:27:30] been brainwashed into thinking Americans are bad.
[00:27:34] So if you're sitting around thinking like this stuff couldn't happen on American soil as
[00:27:39] a veteran wife who, you know, my husband who has seen war, we are naive and we have had
[00:27:47] it so good and we are weak and don't fall into the traps of whatever psyops and red flags
[00:27:56] are about to appear because it will be messy.
[00:27:58] It will be loud.
[00:28:00] It will be crazy.
[00:28:02] You know, it will, it just will.
[00:28:04] So prepare yourself for that kind of cut through that.
[00:28:07] Just breathe right.
[00:28:08] At the end of the day, we know God wins no matter what, but I don't know.
[00:28:12] I'm like, I'm grabbing a couple of things at Costco, you know, like what do we do?
[00:28:20] Right.
[00:28:21] Same.
[00:28:21] We just stick together.
[00:28:23] Yeah.
[00:28:24] It feels so big, but I think the biggest thing is don't react initially to anything, whether
[00:28:32] they say it's Trump because, you know, she, I say her name wrong, but it's Kim, she's like,
[00:28:38] it's Kamala.
[00:28:39] I'm like, it's, I said Kamala.
[00:28:41] I don't know.
[00:28:42] Yeah.
[00:28:43] He says it like 15 different times, but you know, her job as the VP is also to certify
[00:28:48] the electoral votes that come in.
[00:28:50] And we have 19 in battleground states.
[00:28:52] So there are so many ways that this could really go wrong among things like already
[00:28:57] seeing in Michigan.
[00:28:58] We're seeing some things happening, you know, in the ballot boxes, Kentucky, it's like auto
[00:29:03] selecting Harris.
[00:29:04] When you go and push the button for Trump, Colorado secretary of state.
[00:29:08] I don't know if you know this, but they published on her website, the passwords to dominion machines
[00:29:15] in all, but one County in the state.
[00:29:18] Yeah.
[00:29:19] Oh my gosh.
[00:29:19] That's crazy.
[00:29:20] The biggest cybersecurity attack on the electoral, you know, that we've ever experienced.
[00:29:25] So I don't, yeah.
[00:29:27] I mean, I think I agree with you on everything.
[00:29:29] I just do hope that, you know, truth does prevail.
[00:29:32] And, um, but I want to thank you for coming on and thank your husband for his service.
[00:29:37] Um, we are totally indebted to him.
[00:29:39] Um, but yeah.

[00:30:09] We've got to keep our state.
[00:30:12] You know, keep our state conscious of what's happening and fighting back for its citizens.
[00:30:16] Cause that's what we need.
[00:30:18] Yes.
[00:30:19] All right.
