The Global Freedom Report with Brent Johnson

Declaration, Defiance, and the Question of What Freedom Requires

A Father’s Day Forum on Truth, Justice, and Liberty

In this Father’s Day edition of The Global Freedom Report, host Brent Johnson presents the program as a listener-driven forum about truth, justice, liberty, and resistance to government overreach. Skipping over the many ad breaks, the episode’s main content includes open-line discussion, Brent’s invitation for listeners to share stories of justice or injustice, a full reading of the Declaration of Independence, a segment of A Look at the Declaration, a Lessons in Liberty teaching on the legal meaning of “include,” and several caller exchanges about rights, government power, election integrity, and constitutional questions.

Belfast, Migration, and the Question of Public Resistance

Brent begins the current-events portion by discussing unrest in Belfast, Northern Ireland, following reports of a violent attack allegedly involving a migrant. He frames the unrest as part of a larger reaction against mass migration policies, arguing that local populations across Europe and the United States have been ignored by political leaders and globalist institutions. He references statements from Northern Ireland’s First Minister Michelle O’Neill, activist Tommy Robinson, and critics of Prime Minister Keir Starmer, then asks listeners a central question: when people believe their government refuses to protect them, at what point do they have the right to rise up?

Reading the Declaration of Independence as America’s Founding Document

A major portion of the episode is devoted to the Declaration of Independence, which Brent calls the true foundational document of the United States, even more fundamental than the Constitution. He reads the Declaration at length, including its statement that rights come from the Creator, its charges against King George III, and its justification for dissolving political ties when government becomes destructive to liberty. Afterward, Brent reflects on the personal cost paid by the signers and argues that the principle of God-given, unalienable rights remains the basis for American freedom.

Unalienable Rights and Refusing to Comply

Brent then expands on the difference between “unalienable” and “inalienable,” saying the Declaration uses “unalienable” because rights given by God cannot be changed or taken away by any government. He argues that governments cannot truly remove rights; they can only violate them. This leads into one of the episode’s recurring themes: each person must decide what they are willing to do when government violates God-given rights. Brent illustrates this with his own story of refusing the COVID-19 injection while in Tonga, saying he would not recognize the king’s authority over his conscience or body.

A Look at the Declaration - Immigration, Courts, and Judicial Dependence

In the A Look at the Declaration segment, Brent focuses on parts of the Declaration accusing the British king of obstructing immigration, blocking the administration of justice, and making judges dependent on the crown. He compares those grievances to modern conditions, arguing that current Americans also face government systems that obstruct justice and place too much power in federal judicial appointments. He says the founders objected not merely to taxation, but to a broader pattern of government abuse, centralized authority, and denial of legal remedy.

Listener Stories, Election Integrity, and “Lessons in Liberty”

The listener-call portions center on justice, injustice, and government accountability. Caller Eric from Los Angeles shares a story about his stolen van, saying police recovered it and identified the suspect, but the justice system failed to deliver accountability under then–District Attorney George Gascón. Brent also discusses a California petition-circulator case involving payments to homeless people for voter-registration-related signatures, presenting it as part of a larger concern about election integrity. In Lessons in Liberty, Brent teaches that the legal word “include” is restrictive unless a statute says “including but not limited to,” using that point to argue that certain federal definitions do not automatically include the 50 states.

Callers, Constitutional Questions, and the Closing Challenge

Near the end, caller Bill from Glendale, a veteran, discusses gun rights, the Constitution, the 17th Amendment, and the broader question of how Americans can reverse the loss of freedom. Brent responds that the issue deserves a longer conversation and says he hopes to continue discussing practical solutions in the next episode. He closes by asking listeners what they are willing, and not willing, to do to protect liberty. The episode ends with Brent urging people to tell the truth, keep their word, honor their agreements, correct any trespass against others, and remember that freedom is a birthright and a gift from God.

Shadow Politics with Senator Michael D. Brown and Co-host Liberty Jones

Unstoppable in Iowa: India May on Rural Power, Health Care, and Speaking Truth to Power
Guest, India May, Political Candidate, Speaker, Advocate

A Grassroots Conversation About Local Courage

In this episode of Shadow Politics, hosts Michael D. Brown and Liberty Jones welcome India May, Democratic candidate for Iowa House District 58, covering Floyd, Chickasaw, and Bremer counties. Michael introduces her as a nurse, librarian, medical examiner investigator, mother, and community advocate who gained attention after publicly confronting Senator Joni Ernst about Medicare and Medicaid cuts. The episode focuses on local power, rural politics, health care, LGBTQ rights, campaign finance, voter access, and what it means for an ordinary citizen to step into public leadership.

Discovering the Power of One Civilian Voice

India says one of the biggest lessons she has learned over the past year is how much power civilians truly have. She points to her public criticism of Senator Joni Ernst, who later announced retirement, and her scrutiny of her opponent’s unpaid property taxes, after which he paid them. India’s point is that people do not have to wait until they hold office to make a difference. By speaking plainly, documenting facts, and refusing to be silent, ordinary citizens can pressure powerful figures and create real consequences.

From Independent Voter to Democratic Candidate

Liberty asks India about the difference between her expectations and the realities of running for office. India explains that she spent much of her voting life as an independent and is now running as a Democrat in red, rural Iowa. She says she has been pleasantly surprised by the number of people willing to step up, volunteer, knock doors, join parades, and publicly support a campaign that calls for change. She describes live music, community energy, and people applauding the campaign at local events as signs that many rural Iowans know something is wrong and want a different direction.

A Campaign Rooted in Fair Voting

When Liberty asks what policies are most important to India, she names voting reform as her top priority. India supports efforts discussed by Iowa gubernatorial candidate Rob Sand to make voting more fair and less dependent on party structures. She criticizes Iowa’s ban on ranked-choice voting and says she is interested in open primaries, star voting, approval voting, and ballot measures. Her goal is to make Iowa’s political system more responsive to voters rather than party machinery.

Medicaid, Mental Health, and a Broken Health System

Michael asks about India’s well-known confrontation with Senator Ernst over Medicaid cuts and how those cuts affect Iowans. India says Iowa has already been ahead of the curve in damaged health care because Medicaid was privatized in 2016. She describes delayed care, denied care, unpaid reimbursements to hospitals, work requirements, and hospitals struggling to stay open. She also says Iowa ranks at the bottom for inpatient mental health care availability and faces severe health care deserts, rising cancer concerns, and limited oncology access across many counties.

The “Big Beautiful Bill” and Political Timing

India argues that federal cuts tied to the so-called “big beautiful bill” will be devastating and says the timing of implementation appears politically calculated. According to her, the cuts are delayed until November, creating an opening for Republicans to blame Democrats if the party balance changes after the election. Michael responds that this shows she has learned one of the central lessons of politics: policy and timing are often structured to shape public blame.

Christianity, MAGA, and Moral Accountability

The conversation turns to religion and politics when Michael, speaking as a Christian and father of an openly gay daughter, asks how Christians reconcile cruelty toward LGBTQ people, immigrants, and vulnerable groups. India, who says she was raised Methodist, contrasts the Methodist slogan “open hearts, open minds, open doors” with what she describes as MAGA cruelty. She says even the Old Testament emphasizes hospitality to strangers and kindness to those in need, and she argues that current right-wing politics often represents the opposite of what Christ or Christianity teaches.

LGBTQ Rights, Book Bans, and Iowa’s Culture War

India discusses the legislative push in Iowa against LGBTQ protections, trans and nonbinary people, and public libraries. She says Republicans have enacted or pursued punishing policies against LGBTQ Iowans and banned local governments from passing protective ordinances. As a former librarian, she criticizes book bans and groups such as Moms for Liberty, saying the fear that books about gay families will “turn children gay” is baseless. She connects the fight over libraries and education to broader attempts to control speech, identity, and public understanding.

Teen Pregnancy, Sex Education, and Child Safety

The discussion also touches on sex education and child safety. India argues that teen pregnancy has declined not because of abstinence-only silence but because young people have more access to information and teach one another how to be safer. She emphasizes that adults abusing children, not LGBTQ people or books, are a real issue that should be confronted honestly. Michael adds that in his own experience, abuse often came from heterosexual authority figures, reinforcing the need for real education rather than fear-based censorship.

Money, PACs, and a Grassroots Fundraising Fight

India explains that her campaign has raised meaningful support and even outraised her opponent in some ways, though he has outspent her and benefits from PAC funding. She contrasts his expensive steak-dinner fundraising with her community-centered grilled cheese events, including a planned family-friendly fundraiser at the Floyd County Fairgrounds with games and raffle tickets. She stresses that every small donation matters and directs listeners to MayForIowa.com for campaign support.

Rural Iowa, Brain Drain, and Keeping Young People Home

Liberty asks how rural Iowa can keep young workers, doctors, entrepreneurs, and college graduates from leaving. India says the problem is real and often called “brain drain.” She argues that young people leave when communities attack LGBTQ people, underfund public schools, fail to protect workers, allow corporations to exploit communities, and make life less livable. Her answer is that Iowa must become a place where young people can be safe, respected, employed, and proud to build a life near their families.

Challenging Her Opponent’s Record

India discusses her opponent, Charlie Thompson, saying he has served two terms in the Iowa legislature while also working as a lawyer and real estate developer. She criticizes him for not paying property taxes on several properties and for being involved in a stalled downtown development project in Charles City. She also criticizes legislation he supported, including a three-strikes-style bill that she says will increase incarceration despite Iowa not being a high-crime state, especially troubling in a state with poor mental health care access.

Water Quality, Cancer, and the Cost of Silence

A major policy issue India raises is Iowa’s water quality. She says a study identified nitrates from agricultural runoff as a major contaminant and connects this to Iowa’s rising cancer concerns. She criticizes the state for failing to educate the public after the study and says candidates must be willing to have hard conversations about unsafe water, preventable cancer risks, health care costs, child care costs, exploitative tax structures, and corporate influence. For India, voters may eventually wake up when these issues affect their health and wallets directly.

Trump, MAGA, and Cracks in the Bubble

Michael asks whether Trump’s appeal is fading in Iowa, especially among farmers affected by tariffs and economic pressure. India says Trump signs came down quickly in Iowa and notes farmer bankruptcies as a serious concern. She believes some former MAGA supporters are beginning to question what they were told, including one former Trump supporter who wrote her name on the Republican primary ballot. Still, she says many voters remain trapped in algorithmic echo chambers, making truth-telling and local conversations essential.

Iowa’s Governor’s Race and Statewide Politics

India also discusses Iowa’s governor’s race, praising Rob Sand while criticizing Governor Kim Reynolds and the current Republican leadership. She says Reynolds is deeply unpopular and criticizes her use of taxpayer-funded private-jet travel while asking Iowans what public services they would sacrifice to reduce property taxes. India also discusses Republican candidate Zach Lahn, portraying him as a wealthy, Koch-connected figure who talks about water quality but carries far-right cultural positions. Her broader point is that Iowa politics is full of contradictions, money, and high stakes.

An Authentic Candidate With an Unstoppable Message

As the interview closes, Liberty asks what India would want young Iowans to remember. India’s answer is to be unapologetically themselves, find out who they are, and speak truth to power relentlessly. Michael praises her authenticity, endorses her candidacy, and calls her the kind of candidate America needs. Liberty says she does not have the same power to endorse, but will buy a campaign shirt. The show closes with Michael dedicating Sia’s “Unstoppable” to India May and encouraging listeners to support her campaign.

Financial Fitness With The Money Doctor with Frances Rahaim, Ph.D. "The Money Doctor"

Financial Fitness - 4 Degrees of Money Stuck and How to Break Free - FinFit Classic -

In this episode of Financial Fitness with The Money Doctor, Frances Rahaim, Ph.D., breaks down the Four Levels of “Stuck” that people fall into when their money feels tight — from a simple “GPS recalculating” moment all the way to a full “couch stuck in the doorway” crisis. You’ll hear practical, judgment-free guidance for real people: who are doing fine but want to do things smarter, who are a little stuck and need small course corrections, who feel buried by minimum payments, and who are so overwhelmed they’re considering bankruptcy. You’ll also hear a real-life story of a business owner who made “too much” to qualify for bankruptcy — and still used the HUG Your Money™ system to get completely debt-free in about five years.

You're not alone. There is a way forward — and it starts at HugYourMoney.com.

Four Degrees of Money Stuck: How to Recalculate, Recover, and Regain Financial Control

Financial Literacy Meets Real-Life Stress

In this episode of Financial Fitness with the Money Doctor, host Frances Rahaim, joined by Jess Tyler, focuses on the feeling of being financially “stuck.” Frances explains that people often delay dealing with financial stress, especially around the holidays, when spending pressure rises and it becomes tempting to push money problems into January. The episode frames financial wellness not as shame or crisis management, but as a practical process of identifying how stuck someone is and choosing the right next step.

The Four Levels of Being Stuck

Frances organizes the episode around four degrees of financial stuckness. The first level is not really being stuck at all, but wanting a better route. The second is being a little stuck, like pushing a grocery cart with one bad wheel. The third is being moderately stuck, like a roller coaster stopped halfway up the incline. The fourth is being seriously stuck, like a couch wedged in a doorway, unable to move forward or backward without a different strategy. These simple images help listeners identify their own situation without feeling judged.

Level One: GPS Recalculating

The first level is for people who are not in crisis but want a better financial path. Frances compares this to a GPS that says “recalculating.” The person is not lost, but they want a faster, cleaner, more direct route toward their goals. This may include people who are paying bills on time, managing debt reasonably well, or simply wanting to get more from the money they already have. For these listeners, the goal is to make existing habits more effective so every dollar has greater impact.

Budgeting Without Blame

Frances emphasizes that level one is not only about debt. Many people want better budgeting tools because they feel money is slipping away through extra spending, recurring expenses, or household disagreements. She stresses that the process should happen without judgment, blame, or arguments about personal choices such as entertainment, sports packages, beauty expenses, or other discretionary spending. The point is to understand where money is going and make informed choices, not to shame people for how they live.

How Hug Your Money Reorganizes the Plan

Frances explains that Hug Your Money is designed to meet people where they are by using the exact numbers they enter and realigning them into a better strategy. She says the system is patented because it does not simply follow the common advice of sending all extra money to the highest-interest debt first. Instead, it analyzes payment order, timing, and impact to determine where money should go for the fastest and smartest result. The system aims to keep people in control, keep payments current, protect credit, and show users what their numbers could look like inside the program.

Level Two: The Wobbly Shopping Cart

The second level is being a little stuck. Frances compares this to a grocery cart with one wobbly wheel: the cart still moves, but it is annoying, inefficient, and harder than it needs to be. People in this stage are not necessarily in crisis, but they may sense that if they do not make small corrections soon, bigger trouble could be ahead. Frances says this is an ideal time to use the system because small course corrections can restore a sense of control before the entire financial cart crashes.

Why Employers Should Care About Financial Stress

Frances spends part of the episode explaining why employers, schools, and groups might offer Hug Your Money as a financial wellness benefit. She argues that reducing financial stress can improve productivity, retention, loyalty, and employee focus. Jess adds that employees who are not distracted by financial worries may be more present at work. Frances says group pricing can make the benefit highly affordable, while the potential savings and stress relief for employees can be substantial.

Level Three: The Roller Coaster Stuck on the Incline

The third level is more serious. Frances compares it to being on a roller coaster that has stopped on the way up. Payments feel heavy, debt is not going down, but bankruptcy does not seem appropriate or possible. Frances shares that this is where she personally was when she developed the early version of Hug Your Money. She describes paying $10,800 a month in debt payments, much of it related to mortgages and building assets, but still feeling trapped because no available program helped her without damaging credit, refinancing, or shifting debt around.

Minimum Payments and Natural Margin

Frances explains that people in level three can often make progress even if they do not have extra income to throw at debt. The system allows them to keep making minimum payments while it calculates the order and timing of repayment. When one debt is paid off, that payment becomes “margin,” which can then be redirected to the next most effective place. Frances says this creates momentum naturally, while budgeting tools may also reveal smaller savings that can be added to the plan.

Level Four: The Couch Wedged in the Doorway

The fourth level is the most severe form of stuck. Frances compares it to trying to move a couch through a doorway and getting it wedged so tightly that it cannot move forward or backward. In financial terms, this is when payments are no longer just heavy but impossible. People may be juggling due dates, borrowing from one card to pay another, considering bankruptcy, or thinking about simply not paying at all. Frances says this stage requires a completely different strategy rather than more pushing, twisting, or frustration.

A Business Case for Avoiding Bankruptcy

Frances shares the example of a business owner who came to Hug Your Money during COVID after income had fallen and debt was overwhelming. Because of personal guarantees on business loans, bankruptcy was not a simple solution, and reorganization would have damaged vendors, credit, and operations. Instead, he used the system to service a large amount of debt while continuing minimum payments. Frances says his debt was gone in five years, his business recovered, and he was eventually able to focus on retirement planning instead of debt survival.

Confidential Help and a First Step Forward

Throughout the episode, Frances reassures listeners that they can enter their numbers confidentially at HugYourMoney.com and receive a free analysis without being sold to, pressured, or placed into a sales funnel. She repeatedly stresses that the system is designed to meet people where they are, whether they are barely stuck, moderately stuck, or deeply wedged. The episode closes by encouraging individuals, business owners, employers, schools, and organizations to explore the program, request a demo, or call for more information.

Bible News Prophecy with Dr Bob Thiel

Warnings, Moral Decline, and the Promise of a Future Without Violence
Continuing Church of God 50

News Through the Lens of Prophecy

In this episode of Bible News Prophecy, host Steve Dupuie speaks with Dr. Bob Thiel of the Continuing Church of God about reports of sexual violence, grooming gangs, and institutional failure in the United Kingdom and parts of Europe. The conversation frames current events through the program’s stated purpose: analyzing world events in light of Bible prophecy. Dr. Thiel discusses recent reports and commentary about Rotherham, broader UK grooming-gang scandals, alleged failures by public officials, and claims that political correctness and fear of accusations of racism contributed to authorities failing to protect vulnerable girls.

Rotherham, Europe, and the Charge of Institutional Complicity

Dr. Thiel cites reports claiming that large numbers of mainly working-class British girls were abused by organized grooming gangs, and he expands the concern to other towns in the UK and parts of Europe. He emphasizes allegations that officials ignored, minimized, or suppressed warnings in order to protect “community relations.” The episode also references calls for accountability, including Elon Musk’s reported support for Nuremberg-style trials for perpetrators and enablers, as well as reports of similar concerns in France, Germany, and Nuremberg. The discussion presents these issues as part of a wider pattern of institutional unwillingness to confront serious crimes honestly.

Speaking Out, Censorship, and the Fear of Naming Patterns

The program then turns to the question of whether people in Europe are being punished for publicly discussing the backgrounds of alleged attackers. Dr. Thiel references a French woman who says she faced legal consequences after speaking on television about rape, immigration, and crime, including her own alleged experience of an attempted assault. He argues that societies should not criminalize people for speaking about violence or warning others, especially when women are raising safety concerns. The episode’s moral focus is that victims and whistleblowers should be protected rather than silenced.

Rape, Biblical Penalty, and the Trauma of Victims

Steve asks what the Bible says about rape, and Dr. Thiel points to Deuteronomy 22:25, saying the biblical penalty for a man forcing a woman sexually is death. He then discusses the lasting trauma of rape, including physical harm, social stigma, fear, pregnancy, disease, and emotional consequences. He also notes that many victims have historically faced disbelief, blame, or mistreatment when reporting assault. At the same time, he says false accusations also exist and complicate the pursuit of justice, urging genuine victims to seek medical care, report the crime, and receive counseling.

Prophetic Warnings About Moral Collapse

Dr. Thiel connects sexual violence and institutional corruption to biblical warnings about national decline. He reads from Deuteronomy 28, describing curses that come from rejecting God’s commandments, and connects those passages to rape, fear, and outsiders rising over disobedient nations. He also cites Deuteronomy 32, Romans 1, and 2 Timothy 3 to argue that violence, deception, brutality, selfishness, loss of self-control, and love of pleasure over God are marks of the last days. In his view, these reports are not isolated crimes only, but symptoms of societies moving away from biblical morality.

Terror Within and the Beginning of Sorrows

The episode broadens into end-times interpretation, with Dr. Thiel saying increased rape, violence, lawlessness, and terror are part of the “troubles” Jesus warned about in Mark 13. He describes the present era as the beginning of sorrows and says worse tribulation is coming before Christ’s return. While the topic is grim, the program presents the Christian prophetic message as ultimately hopeful: Jesus will return, the Kingdom of God will be established, and violent crimes such as rape will end.

A Kingdom Where No One Hurts or Destroys

Dr. Thiel closes by pointing to Isaiah 11:9, which says that no one will hurt or destroy in God’s holy mountain because the earth will be full of the knowledge of the Lord. He says this future Kingdom will put an end to rape, terror, and violence, and he urges listeners to pray as Jesus instructed in Matthew 6:10: “Your kingdom come.” The program ends with Steve directing listeners to BibleNewsProphecy.net, CCOG.org, and the Continuing Church of God’s free literature and audio resources.
