9/11/21 with Gordon Chang and Eric Metaxas in Williston, VT. 
0-30 - Patriotic music and introductions.  
***30:45-42:15 highly recommended. 
30:45 Gordon  Did you know that China wants to rule the world?  In their toolkit - disease, nuclear weapons, and fentanyl.
34:11 Did you know that irregardless of the origins of Covid, that China's actions in it's wake were instrumental in spreading it globally?
37:15 Did you know China is looking for a bioweapon that will attack other ethnic groups and leave the Chinese alone.
38:25  Did you know China is building silos that could house far more nuclear warheads than any other country?
40:20 Did you know that Chinese fentanyl is flooding into the US through Canada and our southern border and that there were 53K American fentanyl deaths last year.
42:15 Can we/should we cooperate with China? 
52:15 Todd Callahan – Ignite Pastor –You can’t take away our freedom to worship – you can’t violate our constitutional rights without violating your oath of office. 
1:08.10 Eric responding to For all of history, Marxism has tried to undermine the church.   How do you see Marxism undermining the church today?  Slave labor, cultural elite denying patriotism and moral values, bribing people in power
1:20.03 Gordon - China wants to eliminate all faith – it is a way to destroy American values
1:28.45 Eric – We need to rediscover the wildness of our faith and openly share it.  Don’t fear loosing 501c3 status. 
***1:31.35  Lydia Chang -2019 Hong Kong demonstration. Our flag is a symbol of their hope.
1:52:30 – Eric speaks to new Minutemen – pray, act & fast for the nation – God wants to involve us –  learn from Bonhoeffer – bad theology can lead to murder of millions – plugs books If You Can Keep It – coming out – Is Athiesm Dead?  Ericmetaxas.com
2:03 Faith and freedom are linked.  All our founders understood that democracy requires a virtuous foundation.  These ideas are being lost in our schools.  Virtue does require faith – a higher authority – you allow it to dictate to your behavior. 
2:09 Whitfield preached in a way that made Billy Graham look lame. Where he preached, democracy really worked. 
2:13 Secret sauce to freedom, is don’t mandate faith allegiances.  Ben Franklin was asked what have you given us – a monarchy or republic?   A Republic madam, if you can keep it.  Freedom has a price. 
2:17 Folks that don’t have freedom, understand what it is.  Those who’ve lived here tend to take it for granted. 
2:20 Some think globalism is the only fair way.  They built a replica of Statue of Liberty in Tiananmen Square because they understand the value of liberty.  Freedom, faith and virtue are woven together here.  We should be the loudest voice for the persecuted Muslims in China.  Bonhoeffer stood up for the Jews in Germany. 
2:25 Bernie, Hillary, Jeb, need a wild man – who? Trump
2:28 Gordon – Here’s a China political warfare campaign – free download - Marine Corp University – Kerry Gershaneck – Political Warfare – Combatting China’s Plan to Win Without Fighting – Covid came from US –
2:45:45 Wendy Wilton – ran for State Treasurer –there is a  growing media blackout – Use True North – Watercooler and alternative media Telegram, Rumble, Frank Speech for national media sources,  Vermont media is less than desired.
2:49 Wendy - Go to your town caucus in Sept. – engage locally – town clerks will know– Scott doesn’t come to State committee meetings, I wrote resolution for State GOP to  oppose state vaccine passports; it passed unanimously, drive it from local groups
2:51 Senior citizen Peggy’s flag wave at busy corner in Rutland was a great one person endeavor – a freedom reminder. 
2:52 Guy Page –Blog led to Daily Chronicle www.vermontdailychronicle.com ,   If we’d had more public talking to local reporters, might have had Eric interviewed
Thetford Pastor – see, judge, act – what’s the mission of the pastor when the congregation doesn’t agree with you? 
Collective grassroots media?  Everyone should encourage friends to subscribe – 10x my 3K, when will you write me an op-ed
3:02 Kay Trudell - Christian Action Newsletter, it can’t be don’t want to know, don’t want to engage – use your facebook to link people to news stories, make Facebook your mission field.
3:05 Gordon talking on Soros – Black Rock – don’t invest in Chinese companies; rethinking of economic relations; Wall Street starting to loose money – against big tech – Chinese Companies have lost 3T since Jan. 1
3:07 –Is there a money trail to show China is behind the divisions of BLM and CRT? no soldiers – they want us to collapse from within – China used money to buy influence at DC Bookstore Politics and Pros, during Trump years they couldn’t buy that kind of influence.  LeBron James, NBA, endorses Nike, lectures on racism,  Nike makes shoes by Weigers in a slave labor setting.  Slavery of a racial minority in China.  Our consumerism has power if we look at where we buy goods and services
3:15 John Klar, share Guy’s articles, MSM never covered by any of my press releases – you had to create news – Critical Race Theory says you are all racists, how to get to people who think Marxism is good –Add up covid deaths, fentanyl deaths – it is a war… See Guy’s article on fentanyl in VT.
3:25 Pray for Canada – 5 Eyes coalition that US and Canada – September election is important – an example of how fast freedom can erode – neighbors reporting on each other – getting arrested for going to church. 
3:28 Mission work in Taiwan bringing out aggressive behavior of China – what is the future of Taiwan and potential domino effect – 2 narratives –US wouldn’t be able to stand up to China because it couldn’t deal with the Taliban;  US will desert when China invades, Biden isn’t capable of dealing with China;
