PJTN’s Founder Moore Talks Taking Back America’s Children Conference Success as School Boards Hold the Key to Children and America’s Future

PJTN’s Founder Moore Talks Taking Back America’s Children Conference Success as School Boards Hold the Key to Children and America’s Future

Live from Music Row, Friday morning on The Tennessee Star Report with Michael Patrick Leahy – broadcast on Nashville’s Talk Radio 98.3 and 1510 WLAC weekdays from 5:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m. – host Leahy welcomed PJTN’s founder and CEO, Laurie Cardoza-Moore in studio to talk about the national tour of Taking Back America’s Children.

Leahy: In studio with us, Laurie Cardoza-Moore with Proclaiming Justice to the Nations. Good morning, Laurie.

Moore: Good morning, Michael.

Leahy: Kind of fun being in studio here at this hour. Now, I have to say I made some really good coffee for you.

Moore: I know you did, but you left out the most important part.

Leahy: I left out the cream. (Moore laughs) So during the break, we’re going to have to; I think I know where to find it here in this maze. But see, I have this good coffee that I made and I’m drinking it right now, and you’re just going to have to wait till the break. I’m sorry. Last time you were here…

Moore: Ladies and gentlemen, I know the secret to Michael Patrick Leahy. It’s his coffee.

Leahy: It’s my coffee.

Moore: It’s strong. No wonder he’s so full of energy every morning when he shows up here every morning.

Leahy: That’s why you need a lot of cream in it. Laurie, you’ve done some great work at Proclaiming Justice to the Nations. How long have you been doing that for?

Moore: We have been at this since 2002, six months after 911.

Leahy: It’s on the web at pjtn.org. You actually hold conferences around the country. I know you just had one here in Tennessee. You’re going to have one in Ohio where we have The Ohio Star up in March.

Moore: Taking Back America’s Children. It’s going to be in Hudson, Ohio, just south of the Cleveland area. And we’ve already got people signing up to participate. Michael, people are fed up with what’s happening in our country, and they realize that it’s going to take a long time to change what’s happening in Washington, D.C. But where we can make the most effective changes in the shortest amount of time is on the local level.

And we, of course, at PJTN are starting with the school board because those of you that have been listening to Michael for years, you know that back a decade ago we were able to flip the school board in Williamson County because the Williamson County School Board and superintendent back then Mike Looney, and of course…

Leahy: Can I just interject.

Moore: Yes, absolutely.

Leahy: The aptly named Mike Looney. I mean, really, you couldn’t make it up. His last name was Looney, and he was looney. Now he’s loony down in Fulton County, Georgia.

Moore: Yeah, well, the poor people down there, they’ve got their hands full. But no, this is important. If we’re going to take back our country, it starts on the local level. We have to take control over our school boards because our school boards hold the keys to the future, our children’s future, but also the future of this Republic.

And we have been involved in exposing the content that our school board in Williamson County and the school boards across the state have been adopting a curriculum that is not in line with Tennessee values. The curriculum is not accurate. It is biased, and it does not reflect our values.

And it’s the only way we’re going to change that, ladies and gentlemen is if you and I get involved. We can’t sit on the bench and say, coach, send me in. We have to take the initiative ourselves. We can’t wait for it to happen. So no, Michael. I’m excited about what we’re going to do in Ohio.

This is taking off. We have had requests from the dozens in Virginia to review their civic standards. I was on the phone with a school board member in Pennsylvania yesterday, talking about doing the same thing in Pennsylvania in his school district. So it’s picking up, Michael,

Leahy: Put me in, coach. The classic John Fogarty song.

Moore: I know. I’m showing my age.

Leahy: No, I love it. That is my all-time favorite song.

Moore: And I didn’t do that.

Leahy: Well, the other thing, John Fogarty. Great performer. Left-wing lunatic. I mean, extraordinaire, but a wonderful performer.

Crom Carmichael Comments on the Democrat History of ‘Ignoring the People and Putting the Party at the Top of Their Concerns’

Crom Carmichael Comments on the Democrat History of ‘Ignoring the People and Putting the Party at the Top of Their Concerns’

Live from Music Row, Friday morning on The Tennessee Star Report with Michael Patrick Leahy – broadcast on Nashville’s Talk Radio 98.3 and 1510 WLAC weekdays from 5:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m. – host Leahy welcomed the original all-star panelist Crom Carmichael and PJTN’s founder and CEO, Laurie Cardoza-Moore in studio to comment upon the Democratic Party machine that puts party before their people.

Leahy: Crom Carmichael, the original start panelist, and Laurie Cardoza-Moore in studio. Laurie, you know, I have talked about the Democratic Party’s cucumber strategy for getting elected.

And by that, I mean they have a machine, and they can elect any individual, whether that individual is a cucumber or a dog, or an inanimate object.

Carmichael: It could be a tree.

Leahy: It could be a tree.

Carmichael: We’re going to run an oak tree.

Leahy: We’re going to run an oak tree. And in this case, look, we have three examples of political figures now that are examples of how the Democrats’ cucumber strategy has been successful. And this is sad but true, John Fetterman, the senator from Pennsylvania, who had a stroke back in May, right, who obviously didn’t have cognitive capabilities.

He got elected in Pennsylvania, been in the U.S. Senate for a little over a month. He’s already been hospitalized for lightheadedness. And then now yesterday, the news came out that he’s been hospitalized for clinical depression. It’s a very, very sad personal circumstance for Senator Fetterman. We wish him well. But we also wish all the voters in Pennsylvania well. Crom, your thoughts on Fetterman?

Carmichael: Fetterman, also in the report on his clinical depression, said he has suffered from a lifetime of clinical depression. Well, that wasn’t known, that wasn’t talked about. The media didn’t do their job in the election. So what you have is you have Fetterman. It’s very sad.

Leahy: It’s very sad on a personal level. But his family, his wife, and the Democrats there have been extraordinarily uncaring and unkind to him. Because it’s not up for the job.

Carmichael: The Democrats did this 100 years ago. Woodrow Wilson had a terrible stroke; he was truly incapacitated, I believe, Michael, for the last two years.

Leahy: In fact, his wife ran the country.

Carmichael: Ran the country. Yes, in his name. This is the President of the United States. So what I’m saying is the Democrats have a history of ignoring the people and putting the party at the top of their concerns.

Leahy: Laurie, you were going to say something.

Moore: Look at Biden. Here’s another example. People just turn a blind eye. You just can’t make this stuff up. Are they doing it because they feel sorry for the guy?

Leahy: But Laurie, he had a physical yesterday, and his doctor said he’s a vigorous 80-year-old, Crom?

Carmichael: Well, I don’t put Biden in the same category as Fetterman. Fetterman had a massive stroke and literally had to if somebody was going to ask him a question, he had to read the question to be able to understand it. And then, his response to the question was in three-word sentences. Fracking bad. Fracking good. I believe fracking good.

Leahy: And yet the machine got him elected.

Carmichael: The machine got him.

Leahy: The machine got him elected, back to our cucumber strategy.

Carmichael: Diane Feinstein, now she’s another person.

Leahy: She’s 89 years old.

Carmichael: Well, not just 89. She literally has to have help with where the bathroom is.

Leahy: She’s not well. And the other thing is, they announced finally, earlier this week, they put out a statement her staff put out a statement that she was not going to run for re-election. And then, like, an hour later, the press said, tell us about your decision on re-election. She said, well, I haven’t made my mind up yet. Well, and then the staffer said, yeah, we put the statement out an hour ago, Senator Feinstein. She’s just not there.

Carmichael: No, she’s truly not. And so the Democrats, they’re all hot and bothered about trying to get rid of George Santos.  And they better be very careful there, because there have only been five House members who have been expelled.

Leahy: Expelled? Tell it. Who were they?

Carmichael: I don’t know the names of the three who joined the Confederate Army.

Leahy: They were expelled.

Carmichael: But they were expelled for joining the Confederate Army.

Leahy: That’s a good reason. If you go to join another country that’s in rebellion. That’s treasonous. Who else?

Carmichael: And one of them got caught up in ABSCAM

Leahy: Took a bribe on video.

Carmichael: A $50,000 bribe and was convicted and then convicted of taking a bribe while in office and then expelled. And the fifth one was a similar circumstance in that they were indicted for doing something, a crime in office, a serious crime, and then they were convicted, and then they were expelled. Now, we also have a House member, Alcee Hastings, who was a judge who was impeached as a judge.

Leahy: But let’s put this right. The late Alcee Hastings from Florida, he was impeached as a judge. I think he took money from something.

Leahy: They claimed he did.

Carmichael: He turned out he ended up not being convicted at trial.

Leahy: But not convicted.

Carmichael: No, he was thrown out. No, he was impeached. He was thrown out.

Leahy: And then they tried him.

Carmichael: Then they tried him for the crime in criminal court. He beat that rap, and then he won a House seat.

Leahy: But he was impeached and removed.

Carmichael: Removed.

Leahy: So the process is when the Senate holds the trial and removes you from office, but there’s no criminal penalty. When he was tried in criminal court, he was not convicted.

Carmichael: Correct.

Leahy: After having been impeached and removed as a federal district judge, he ran for Congress and was elected.

Carmichael: And won a number of terms.

Leahy: He was in for 20 years.

Carmichael: A long time. Yes.

Leahy: George Santos is a serial liar, but he’s not committed a felony while in office, and I don’t think they’ll be able to remove him.

Carmichael: Well, if they remove him for something he did while he was campaigning, that puts in a whole new precedent?

Leahy: Well, we’ll see.

Cardoza-Moore: We Have a ‘Biblical Responsibility to Engage in the Political Process’

Cardoza-Moore: We Have a ‘Biblical Responsibility to Engage in the Political Process’

Live from Music Row, Monday morning on The Tennessee Star Report with Michael Patrick Leahy – broadcast on Nashville’s Talk Radio 98.3 and 1510 WLAC weekdays from 5:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m. – host Leahy welcomed PJTN’s Laurie Cardoza-Moore in studio to talk about the guest speakers and activities attending Sunday’s Taking Back America’s Children-Tennessee Summit.

Leahy: In studio, our very good friend Laurie Cardoza-Moore, who’s the founder and CEO of Proclaiming Justice to the Nations – pjtn.org. A big event that you can go to pjtn.org and sign up for this Sunday. It’s called Taking Back America’s Children. It’s a summit.

A lot of fantastic speakers, including Laurie. And if you’re a parent and you’re thinking, oh, my goodness, it seems like it’s an endless uphill battle to fix our K12 public schools. At this conference, you’ll learn a couple of strategies and language used by left-leaning education “reformers.”

The power of social media in vocalizing your concerns and ways to motivate other concerned citizens to take action. Sounds like a good agenda. Tell us about the speakers, Laurie.

Moore: Absolutely. Stephanie Meyer is going to be coming to do a speaker training. She’s going to help us lay out our strategy for victory. Now, remember, this summit is solely focused on flipping school boards across the state. We’ve got people coming in from across the state. Robert Arnakis is coming from the Leadership Institute in Washington, D.C.

Leahy: And let’s talk about that for a moment. The Leadership Institute, they’ve been around for about 50 years. Morton Blackwell. That’s a name to remember, you know, Morton.

Moore: Oh, yeah.

Leahy: Morton Blackwell. This is a guy who back in the 60s basically got a lot of young people involved. Now in 2023, although he’s not a young person, he thinks young and he thinks organizationally.

Moore: That’s right.

Leahy: And he is actually he has been a Republican National Committee chair committeeman from Virginia for about 40 years, and he’s been very prominent. The Leadership Institute has done an awful lot of training, and I think Robert Arnakis has been there for a long time, hasn’t he?

Moore: Yes, absolutely. And so he’s coming in to do this training also. I’m going to be speaking about our biblical responsibility to engage in the political process and who we should be electing as leaders.

Leahy: Let me just stop for a moment. And if you talk about whether you’re a Christian or Jewish or whatever your faith is, there is a duty to engage in the political process.

Moore: Absolutely.

Leahy: Some Christians think, well, if you go back historically here in Middle Tennessee, way back, David Lipscomb, his belief back in the late 19th century was that Christians should not be involved in the political process. That has been roundly rejected by most Christians. Although some don’t engage, need to be engaged.

Moore: Yes, absolutely. And some pastors won’t encourage their congregation. If you remember the Black Robe Regiment, the pastors were leading the charge. And it’s very few pastors across the state here in Tennessee. I can count them on one hand that will that are willing to get involved in this battle and encourage their congregants to become part of it.

We have the government we have because we have elected these people. And if we didn’t elect them and we stayed home and didn’t vote, well, guess what? Silence in the face of evil, Deeja Bonhoffer says itself evil not to speak is to speak. And I always add, not to vote is to vote.

Leahy: This is a theme that you’ve had for some time that Eric Metaxas has been talking about. He’s got a letter to the American Church where he says, look, you got to get involved.

Moore: That’s right.

Leahy: You got to get involved. Another very compelling speaker, former Sheriff Richard Mack. Tell us about him.

Moore: Richard Mack is also known as America’s Sheriff. And Sheriff Mac is coming to talk to our guests about the role of the sheriff, the local sheriff. Michael, you know this, but the role of the local sheriff is to uphold the constitutional rights of the citizens within the county that that sheriff exists or is serving.

We know that we’ve got sheriffs across the state who are committed to conservative principles, and the Constitution, but Sheriff Mack is coming in to help train and equip the local citizens to understand who their sheriff is.

And for example, some of the garbage that we have in these school libraries and in the public libraries, Michael, is in violation of state statute. And it’s the citizens who should be bringing this to the attention of the local DA and the local sheriff because this is against the law.

The pornography that we are subjecting our children to under the guise of sex education and these people are getting away with it. Well, you know what? We, parents and tax-paying citizens, have said enough is enough. You are not going to use our tax dollars to continue to indoctrinate our children and subject them to this garbage.

Leahy: During one of the breaks you said, one of the motivating factors you had for putting this event together this Sunday, which is really going to be a full-day event here in Williamson County, and it was interesting the way you phrased it, and I agree with that.

Parents, if you are not paying attention to the curriculum in your K12 public school right now, you are in essence, throwing your children to the wolves.

Moore: Yes.

Leahy: Do you want to expand on that a little bit?

Moore: Absolutely. There’s a scripture in the Bible that says, there arose a generation who knew not Israel, knew not the Lord and what he had done for Israel. Well, I would suggest to our audience, there has arisen a generation in the United States who does not know the Lord and what he has done for America.

And it’s so critically important. Our children, if we don’t understand where we came from, our past, and our history, we cannot fulfill our destiny as a nation, as a people, and as an individual.

And it’s critically important that we give our children accurate tools, and accurate information so that they will, when we hand the baton to them of this constitutional Republic, they will be able to take that baton, seize it, and carry it forward to the next generation through their generation.

Leahy: One of the things that I’ve noticed is and this is, I think, going to be part of your training is the dismissiveness that parents get when they deal with local education agency officials. They just don’t pay attention. They kind of say, yes, very nice. Now leave me alone. That’s something people are going to learn how to deal with here.

Moore: That’s exactly right. We cannot take no for an answer. It’s up to us. Our children are our responsibility. We need to remind these elected officials that they’re voted and elected to represent we the people.

It’s not their agenda or their political agenda or the left-leaning education initiative that these different school boards and school districts are forcing our children to learn. It’s up to us to take a stand.

Leahy: And the event this weekend, on Sunday, all day, from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Taking Back America’s Children.

Laurie Cardoza-Moore on Proclaiming Justice to the Nations’ Upcoming Summit, ‘Taking Back America’s Children’

Laurie Cardoza-Moore on Proclaiming Justice to the Nations’ Upcoming Summit, ‘Taking Back America’s Children’

Live from Music Row, Monday morning on The Tennessee Star Report with Michael Patrick Leahy – broadcast on Nashville’s Talk Radio 98.3 and 1510 WLAC weekdays from 5:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m. – host Leahy welcomed CEO and Founder of PJTN, Laurie Cardoza-Moore in studio to talk about the upcoming event this Sunday called, Taking Back America’s Children for families of students.

Leahy: In studio right now, our very good friend, Laurie Cardoza-Moore, the founder and CEO of Proclaiming Justice to the Nations. Good morning, Laurie.

Moore: Good morning, Michael!

Leahy: It’s always great to have you here in studio. It’s so much more fun to be in studio.

Moore: I know, I just can’t see doing it over the phone. Doing it live! We have to do the phone, okay fine. But this is more fun.

Leahy: Now, you do have to get up early.

Moore: I know, I was up early.

Leahy: You were up early. So thank you for that. A big event coming up this Sunday. Taking Back America’s Children will be held from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.. You’ll be there as well as many speakers there. People can go to pjtn.org to sign up. Tell us about this event, Laurie.

Moore: This is an extension, Michael, of what we did a decade ago. And you remember that a decade ago we found a Pearson published textbook that was not just antisemitic, but anti-American, anti-Judeo Christian, and anti the values that our nation was founded upon.

And that was in Williamson County. This was a parent who came to us, whose student was in the 9th grade. He came home questioning his faith. Now, listen to this and all of our audience who are believers.

He came home questioning his faith. He said to his mom, he said, who has legitimate rights to the land of Israel? And this is a kid who came from an evangelical home. He had been in youth Bible studies.

He knew what the word of God said. And she said to her son, well, what does the Bible say? He said, no, Mom, I know what the Bible says, but tell me the truth. Who has legitimate rights to the land?

That mother, of course, being her family background is Jewish. They have Jewish ancestry. She started to look into the materials that he brought home that day, and she contacted me and she said, you will never believe what we found in Williamson County school is what we’re teaching our kids.

And so she brought me the book. I reviewed it cover to cover, and we started the process of trying, as most parents have been doing, with these school library books and some of the textbooks and the wit and wisdom that our children are being subjected to this garbage, these lies.

And so we went through the proper protocol, and we ultimately went to the school board. The school board said we’re going to put a committee together, we’re going to look at the book, and we’re going to deal with this.

They looked at the book and they were to vote. One night, there was a school board meeting, and of course, we went on the radio two weeks prior to that meeting, because I knew I had to get parents and citizens to show up at that meeting.

And we started airing spots, just examples of what we were finding in this textbook mom and dad in Williamson County. Do you know what your kids are being subjected to? And that night at the school board meeting we ended up having standing-room-only.

The parents lined up to tell the school board, we want these books removed. We want this book removed. I got up and I said, this is an election year, and if you don’t remove this textbook, we’re going to remove you from office.

They voted that night. They slapped the parents and citizens in Williamson County in the face, and they kept the book. They said, ‘Oh, the issues in the book do not warrant removing it.’ So we went to work. We had four months to be able to flip that school board.

We looked for parents who are citizens, tax-paying citizens that were willing to run for the school board, and the community got behind them within four months. We had four months to do it.

Michael, come election day in August, those six sitting school board members that were up for reelection, we removed all six. Well, it’s been a decade, and we’ve watched moms and organizations come in to try to right the wrong, and we still have a problem in this school district. The school board has got to go, and that’s what this training is about.

That’s why we’re hosting this meeting coming up this Sunday and why it’s important that you as tax-paying citizens, as parents with your children or even grandparents with grandchildren in the school system, you need to show up at this so you can be trained and can hear from top-tier leaders who are coming in from across the country. We’ve got Robert Arnakis, who’s coming in from the Leadership Institute.

Leahy: And we’ll go through more details. I think here’s the bottom line on all this. The educrats and the left have an ongoing onslaught that keeps bad curricula in the schools.

Moore: That’s right.

Leahy: And on our side, you have to constantly fight, fight, fight. This event next, this coming Sunday will be an opportunity for people to learn about how to fight back. It’s Taking Back America’s Children-National Southeastern Conference.

PJTN Founder and President Laurie Cardoza-Moore Updates on Critical Race Theory Curriculum

PJTN Founder and President Laurie Cardoza-Moore Updates on Critical Race Theory Curriculum

 

Live from Music Row Tuesday morning on The Tennessee Star Report with Michael Patrick Leahy – broadcast on Nashville’s Talk Radio 98.3 and 1510 WLAC weekdays from 5:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m. –  host Leahy welcomed Laurie Cardoza-Moore from Proclaiming Justice to the Nations to the newsmakers line to give updates on the Critical Race Theory curriculum that has been found in K-12 schools and recent legislation against it.

Leahy: We are joined on our newsmaker line now by our good friend Laurie Cardoza- Moore, the founder and President of Proclaiming Justice to the Nations. Good morning, Laurie.

Moore: Good morning, Michael! It’s great to be back on the show.

Leahy: Every time we turn around, there’s some other craziness going on in the world. We, of course, have the problem of Critical Race Theory that you became aware of quite a while ago when you discovered anti-semitic, anti-Christian, and anti-American content in the textbooks for your kids.

You were aware of this some time ago. Now we see school systems around the country that have been trying to promote Critical Race Theory. In Florida, they passed a law to stop that. There’s one pending here in Tennessee. Tell us what the latest is on the Critical Race Theory battle here in Tennessee and around the country.

Moore: Yes. Absolutely. I am so proud of our state legislature for dealing with this issue because these are lies. This is all fraudulent. Hitler said that if you repeat a lie often enough and long enough people will believe the lie. And this is exactly what they’re doing.

I am hearing from parents all over the country who are sending me images of what their children are being taught. Children are coming home as young as Elementary age, crying in tears. They hate the fact that they are White. We have another situation in Middle Tennessee that I’ve been made aware of a biracial child who comes from a biracial family.

And he said he hates the of his White side of his identity. This is outrageous that this is being tolerated. So kudos to all of our legislators who are taking this battle on. For Governor DeSantis for coming out and publicly saying no wacko theories in Florida.

And that’s exactly what every governor, every state legislature, and every Department of Education should be adopting. This is propaganda, pure and simple. It’s been around, Michael, for quite some time. We’re actually in the process of doing a report and compiling the data to show where this thought process originated.

And unfortunately, it happened in the South. In South Carolina, there’s a professor…but we’re going to be releasing that report soon. It’s outrageous that this is going on. We see Critical Race Theory even in Holocaust education.

We’ve got an issue in Florida where we submitted by recommendation of the Department of Education in Florida standard K-12 a Holocaust standard to teach the children in Florida from kindergarten through their senior year about anti-Semitism and the propaganda that, of course, the propaganda war that Hitler waged.

And we see this happening also. But they’re using Holocaust studies now. They’re using the death of six million men, women, and children to push Critical Race Theory ideology through Holocaust education. And we will not tolerate it.

Leahy: That’s crazy.

Moore: It absolutely is Michael. You’ve got the Critical Race Theory and there they’re using buzzwords in talking about the Holocaust. You’ll find all of these buzzwords like equity, tolerance, all of these words. And then they try to associate the Holocaust.

And what happened, the murder of 6 million men, women, and children, systemic murder of 6 million men, women, and children and they’re trying to use these words to incorporate other genocides. No, the Holocaust is central to the death and the target of Jews. This is what the Holocaust was.

They were targeting the Jews for annihilation. And to try to bring any other type of genocide or racism into this narrative is trying to water it down and to minimize it. When Hitler established his final solution, it was the final solution to the Jewish question. It wasn’t the final solution to the Gypsy question.

It wasn’t the final solution to the Communist question. It was the final solution to the Jewish question and anybody who tries to water that down is guilty of trying to revise the Holocaust. We see Holocaust revisionism, which is out of control. It is unacceptable.

And the fact that in Florida, Governor DeSantis passed the Anti-Semitism Awareness Act, which is the definition of antisemitism. We can’t seem to get that passed here in Tennessee. But I’m not giving up. But it basically states that anyone who says that the Jews have no rights to their ancient homeland, that is anti-Semitic.

And we see even that verbiage and that language in the attempt to try to remove our K-12 Holocaust standards. Our standards start with K-5. We introduce children to their Jewish classmates and their Jewish neighbors.

We teach them about their culture, the holidays, and things like that that young children can grasp. So when they start learning about the horrors of the Holocaust in middle school and high school, they will be as shocked as you and I were when we learned about the Holocaust ourselves.

Leahy: Laurie, we have a story at The Tennessee Star today. I haven’t seen it elsewhere, but I’ll just share this with you. And this is a group probably that could benefit from the work that you’re doing in the report you’re about to release.

Headline. Group Seeks to Share Personal Stories of Critical Race Theory. The Center for Renewing America is seeking to share stories of Critical Race Theory in action across the U.S. The group is working with America First Legal legal. A legal group, created by Stephen Miller and other Trump administration officials.

The two organizations share the goal of fighting critical race theory in various formats across the country. And so that group, you’re probably ahead of them. You could probably help them out.

Moore: Yes. There are more and more groups that are starting to rise up and to challenge this and as well, it should. We’re not going to fight this battle, Michael. We’re not going to go to war on a battlefield as we’ve done in past. This is the war of ideology and the war in the mind.

And they are trying to take the minds of the next generation to distort what you and I know to be factually accurate history. And we should not tolerate it. Parents need to look at the content. Parents that are sending their kids to school need to be asking questions of their children.

Are you being taught this? Are you being taught this Critical Race Theory, ideology? Are you being taught that because your White you happen to be promoting White privilege, and you are guilty because you happen to be born White you’re guilty of racism?

This is outrageous and should not be accepted anywhere. This country has brought people from different races, nationalities, and religious faith. We have lived in this country together, and it wasn’t until Obama came along and started pushing a narrative that wasn’t true.

He opened up an old wound and now these people, what we’re witnessing today, they’re trying to highlight this and trying to push this false narrative. And we again, as Patriots and as Americans have to fight for our history.

Why do you think, Michael, that the last year and a half, we saw young people destroying our monuments, tearing down our historical monuments? Those monuments are significant because they tell us they tell the story of our past. And if we eliminate these monuments, then we are removing the things in history that we can point to that remind us of who we were and who we are today.

Leahy: Laurie Cardoza-Moore, Founder, and President of Proclaiming Justice to the Nations on the web at PJTN.org. thanks so much for joining us this morning and come back in the near future, maybe come in studio someday. We’ll have a longer conversation.

Moore: Absolutely. Go to the website and sign the petition. God bless.
