 What he represents is patriarchy. We're here to do work as men, as patriarchs. There's nothing more natural than being a father. Welcome back from lunch. I hope you guys had some good conversations. This next guy is going to give you a lot to talk about. He and I hung out at the poolside last night and talked church history and sociology and about everything. Jeff Younger is a father of two sons. He's a mathematician and a brilliant mind. I want you to welcome him to the stage. Thanks for having me. I am not going to have good news today. I'm going to tell you some things that are tough to hear. I'm going to tell you some things that you're going to need to do, but you're not going to want to do. We need to develop in this country a notion of cancel-proof fatherhood. We talked a lot about cancel culture and its danger to us, our movement, as men, as just people who have businesses and so forth. We don't talk about preventing the canceling of fatherhood. And we're reaching a point where the institutions of the state and the institutions of our matriarchal enemies have reached a point where they're almost able to do this. So the patriarchy is truly imperil. I want to start, as always, by giving some gratitude. I want to ask your forgiveness if I have offended any of you and offer a prayer. I want to thank Anthony Johnson. He's really modeled on our courage and commitment. I think he's a man who has given us all opportunities and he's kept his word to me every single time. I've never had to have a written contract or anything with this man. He does what he says. You can't say that a lot these days, so it's really worth mentioning. I want to pray. Please stand. I believe standing at the presence of the Lord. O heavenly King, comforter, spirit of truth who are everywhere present and filling all things, treasury of good gifts and giver of life, come and abide in us and cleanse us of all impurities and save our souls, O good one. Amen. Name the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit. All right. These are my two boys. James and Jude. That's James. On your left, that's Jude on the right. I named him after the brothers of Jesus. James' middle name. His Christian name. He's named Damon, which is my name, after Cosmos and Damian. They're the unmercinary physicians from Syria who converted through miracles, converted the country of Armenia, the first Christian country in the world. Jude is named after the prophet Daniel. Now I want to tell you the shocking truth. It is illegal for me to speak to you today. I'm breaking the law and I'm breaking the law given to me by a judge, a gag order. I want to show it to you. This is the gag order. It says that I am not allowed to make any videos. Do any type of interviews, news interviews, documentaries, television appearances, radio appearances, internet radio appearances, blog posts, social media posts, social media posts, picture of the children, doing live social media feeds of the children, doing any type of posts, blog, broadcast or recording, whether written or electronic, discussing, cisgender, transgender, gender fluidity, gender dysphoria, gender identity and whether the children are masculine, feminine. It is illegal for me to tell you that my boys are male. I'm talking to my judge right now, Judge Mary Brown, Dallas County. I'm not going to follow your gag order. I'm never going to follow your unconstitutional legal gag order. If you believe that gag order is constitutional and moral, you're obligated to give me the maximum criminal sentence under criminal contempt that you can give me and I will issue a writ of habeas corpus and we'll go to the Supreme Court of Texas and we'll see who's right. That's the fifth time I've told you. I am not following unconstitutional laws, mandates or orders ever again and don't you do it either. You're conditioning the matriarchy to push you around. Don't do it. I'm going to say whatever I want. Whenever I want, however I want and I have a right to do it and I have a duty to do it for my sons and I'm going to continue to do it. I'm not one of these guys that's going to opine much about what the supreme virtues are but I thought this was pretty good. You stand to lose everything but you still do the right thing. So I've taken $1.2 million, took my retirement. That's what it's taken for me to defend my boy. Now they're trying to take my boy's genitals and eventually kill him and if they think for one second that I'm not going to keep swinging and punching and kicking, they got another thing coming. I ain't stopping for nothing and if I live like Diogenes in a pot with nothing but a woman nagging me all damn day I'm happy to do it. I'm not stopping. If I'm going down, I'm going down swinging. Let's talk about how this happened. Let's go back a little bit and I think this is really instructive in how our society is abusing the trust that men place in their families and the false views that many men have about the laws surrounding families. These are my boys. This is my son James. You know, we go to church and he noticed I wear a suit when we go to church and this is me fitting in for his first church suit. That's them. They just programmed their first electric circuit, a voice activated circuit that could turn a light on and off. You can see that Jude's very happy. Jude is very, very good at logic and thinking things through. He was very proud of that. That's James when he goes rabbit hunting. He heard all these stories in my family about me when I was a kid. I went out with a patchy throwing stick up by Lubbock and I used to hunt jackrabbits all the time bring a couple home for the pot. So he wanted to do that. So I got him a hunting boomerang from Australia and that's him back back from the creek after he got a couple rabbits. So this is what happened to him. This is him at four years old. That's the website of his mom. She's a pediatrician in Capell, Texas. I name names. Her name is Anne Georgilis. She is a pediatrician in Capell, Texas. She had my son on her website to help advertise her business. All the while she was complaining that I was posting pictures of him on the internet. So I pointed this out in court that not only does she is she posting on the internet but she's posting him as a boy when it's when it raises money for her. When it's commercial. She didn't even believe that he was a girl. The next day, that's how she put him on the website in a pink dress with a bow in his hair. And it just really happened that fast. Do you know the court did absolutely nothing about this? So at the time we had a court order which prohibited either one of us from prohibiting from presenting the boy in a way that he wasn't known to third party. So if somebody knew him as a girl, I had to present him as a girl. So here she is. She's presenting him as a boy and then she presents him as a girl. No consequences. That's him at one of his appointments at a pediatrician named Dr. Jennifer Pape in Flower Mount Texas. That is the pediatrician that diagnosed this boy with gender dysphoria. So how can you be gender dysphoric if you only present as a girl with your mom but with everybody else you present as a boy? How can that be gender dysphoric? Gender dysphoria requires consistency in the presentation. So that was just nutty. But that's him in a dress. Sundress, no doubt. That's me picking him up. So she used to do this stuff to provoke me. She wanted me to be violent. So this is me picking my boy up. Comes out like this. She makes it seem like for him it's like some big game. But I think Jude's face pretty much says it all and it tells you what Jude thinks about all this. We'll get to that a little later. She now dresses him. Here he is a little older. She now dresses him up like a drag queen. Everywhere he goes he goes to school like this. She's given him a fake name. Luna. The schools despite the fact that I've told the schools they don't have my consent to do this have changed his name and they've done this all against my will and I've been fighting the schools ever since. I'm headed toward a federal lawsuit with him which is gonna cost me a lot more money. That's how he is known in his school all without my consent. So I'm gonna ask you if you can't stop this as a father in Texas do your children really belong to you? Under the law? Are they really yours under the law? We're gonna get to that question too. The court actually ordered that my son be socially transitioned to a girl. It's the first time in Texas that's ever happened. I was enjoined from cutting my son's hair because Dr. Ann Georgilis said she wanted to grow it out long like a girl's. So the court enjoined me from doing that but they never stopped her from transitioning my son. Think about that for a minute. I'm gonna ask you again under the law are your children yours? This is Judge Mary Brown. This is my judge the one that issues illegal orders and allows my son to be transitioned against my will and without a verdict from a jury she's you can go out and see on YouTube hearings people have recorded hearings I've seen them on YouTube I don't know the people that have recorded them but they've recorded hearings and you can see her in action and it's not much better than that picture. What times do we live in when this is happening to kids? When fathers can't stop it fathers not only can't can't teach their kids now they can't stop people from physically and mentally and emotionally abusing their children. What is it about this time that lets that happen? It's shameful and that's why I say shame on this age shame on this age shame on its principles the people know what is going on fathers know this is happening in courts judges know judges in Texas that don't want this to happen judges on the Supreme Court officials that sit on the Judicial Conduct Commission know this is going on and yet still these effeminate bastards march through the corridors of power telling us that we have to martyr our children castrate them and condemn them to a life of despair and suicide. Long ago we should have told them no not only no but you will end your tyranny over our children we should have done this a long long time ago and we did it and it's almost too late I get asked all the time I was just asked at lunch do people really believe this crazy stuff do they really believe that a boy is a girl and a girl is a boy I mean do they really believe this? You know I often use this analogy you know think about the most totalitarian government you can imagine and suppose they tried to torture a man a father into saying that his son was a girl they probably could torture him into saying it do you think they could torture him into actually believing it? they've got 40% of the country that actually believes this stuff I'm just going to suggest to you that that's a level of social power and propaganda power that's unprecedented in human history I'm going to give you the ancient origins of this debate this is an old debate it didn't necessarily involve transgenderism but it involves questions of anthropology the ancients looked at the world like this there was the physical world the natural world and then there was the world of artifice the things that men make the artificial world both by art or what they called technique and by convention what they called nomos these are things that weren't designed by human beings but were created by human beings so they made a distinction there the question that they wondered about and it's an interesting and important question is a human nature even possible? we sort of take that for granted we use those words every day right? but think about it how can a natural being create an artificial world? and this perplexed the ancients even the pre-socratics how can that be? I mean, I'm not here to give you answers to these questions I'm just telling you the debate I will tell you that I think Christianity gives pretty good answers to these and if such a being does exist a natural being that can create an artificial world what would be the nature of such a being? currently today we have become so decadent in our society and I mean decadent in the latin sense of it decadenced out of step with one another we are so out of step so decadent in the society that we don't agree on what a human being is that's how deep the division goes I'm going to give you a story about an NBC producer who wanted to interview me and he came down to Dallas finally worked real hard to get me alone got me out to dinner and then I think he was probably miked up and recording me he said well I hear you're an orthodox Christian Jeff Younger and I said well yes I am and he said well I'm gay and I went okay stop doing that and he said you mean I can't come to my church your church and be who I am and I said well first of all the first half of every service is praying for people like you who are outside the church you're the first person that should come before even I go secondly I don't think you know who you are I don't think you and I agree on what a human being is you think a human being is a biological computer satisfying largely unconscious desires and I don't think that's what you are I think you're a hell of a lot more important than that and he cried he actually cried we don't agree in this country even what a human being is and I'm going to suggest to you with disagreements that deep compromise may not be possible so this is me with my son this time he was about seven years old here's how I've gone about combating this issue where the courts just won't stop her from transitioning my son when you come to my home and he's with me 25% of the time I would simply do things that I always do but he was with me doing them I don't believe in leadership styles and all that crap I think there's one leadership style lead by example so when my boy said they wanted a box yes at 55 I had to step back in the ring and I did I paid for it too by the way you know it lived until you boxed 20 year olds that want to get back at your dad there's one kind of leadership lead by example the first example that I had realized I had a set for this boy is that he had to be in church and he likes going to church and his brother Jude is utterly sincere utterly sincere believer and that's the first thing that I have to let them know God loves them and I read them even when I was legally prohibited this is something you don't know for a long period of time the court legally prohibited me from telling my teaching my son that he was a boy and that prohibited me from teaching him traditional Christian teachings on sexuality and gender and I spent five years under those orders so what I would do is every night before they went to bed I'd open the book of Genesis up to the creation of man and woman I didn't make the argument I let the holy book make the argument that's the first thing that I did and I suggest whatever your religious persuasion is I'm going to suggest to you that without a spiritual life you're not going to succeed in keeping your children safe from the society that is being birthed from this transgender movement now put this out there you can see my boys are much younger here they're about four years old almost four she started transitioning James right here on your left at two she began teaching him he was a girl at three if you go on to YouTube and Google mommy says I'm a girl you'll see the video that it was the first iPhone video ever took it's still the very first one on here and it's my me learning for the first time that she's teaching him that he's a girl it's a shocking video so I just want to tell you how they're playing here so Jude has got the Hulk and James has Thomas the train and Thomas the train is trying to get something done while the whole tries to smash the train and they play for hours on these kinds of games why do they do this they are learning how to contend in the world they're learning that there are things out there that will prevent them from achieving their goals there is a Satan that will deceive and tempt them away from righteousness and they switch up each side being the one who's the obstacle and the one who's trying to get something done one of the things that I have never done with my children is shield them from consequences as long as it doesn't hurt them so let me give you an example my boys know that I have what I call the no rules rule don't make me make rules be reasonable your room doesn't have to be perfectly cleaned up but if it rises to the level of my attention I will make rules if you treat me with respect reasonably the answer is probably always yes but if you lose my respect the answer is always no then they learn that very quickly so we had one incident where they left an iPad on the floor and stepped on it that's a thousand bucks so I asked them well that's terrible I mean now that we know you're not responsible enough to have an iPad how are you going to read your e-books and that was their problem to solve now they decided that they were going to help me do some things to earn my respect back and then we had to make our one and only rule now the house you have to keep iPads on tables but they by and large have learned to be reasonable and it's largely because I let them play like this and encourage play like this learn how to overcome obstacles make it a game don't let it get you down this is James at the bounce house so it's a trampoline play park I won't mention its name it's near me and then they have a season pass there they used to so we were there one day and they were in the dodgeball court and guy was you know run around throwing balls like they do well James is quick so James is hitting him over and over again and my son Jude isn't so quick but he's super strong so he nailed him he nailed him hard when he saw he's going after his brother right all legit completely above board so the guy comes over and starts pushing Jude so Jude bases like I taught him from wrestling he bases and just takes the kid down on the trampoline lets him go they don't let people push him around but they don't hurt people either and I think that's something we we need to learn men need to be like a wall you know if if a car runs into a solid brick wall thick concrete wall whatever you know it pushes back with exactly the amount of force that the car hits so that the wall doesn't move at all if you push on a wall with 10 pounds of force it pushes back with 10 pounds of force that's why nothing moves we don't strike out at people but we don't move and I think this is an example that we're gonna have to teach ourselves and our boys this is my boys learning what the real world like you lose sometimes and sometimes losing hurts and sometimes it's public and sometimes it feels humiliating but eventually they got over worrying about losing in public we need to do the same thing try some stuff there's a lot of things we can talk about about how we can overcome this we'll get to that but I think the first thing we have to overcome is the idea that if something we do fails our our our fellow friends our man in the manasphere our our personal friends our family are gonna somehow think less of us you know what man the only person that has any right to criticize somebody who's trying to accomplish something are people who are trying to accomplish the same thing right the honor goes to the man in the arena not the spectator honestly this is what drives me crazy when I watch football with my friends like all of the they criticize football players I'm like you're not on the field how about we just enjoy the the game as a form of entertainment criticizing these people is ridiculous and they get serious about it I'm sure you've heard football fans get serious about the honor goes to the man on the field so your question has to be am I on the field am I training how to hurt my enemies am I used to taking it when they stick it to me cannot take it and give it right back because that's what my boys had to learn and they learned the hard way so like I told you look at that look at that belly of mine so I told you I lead by example so when they wanted to wrestle guess what I had to do next thing you know I'm wrestling with a guy who's a national champion getting choked out every weekend but I had to do that for my boys and to show that you know eventually I learned how to not get choked now you know old and slow as I am that took a lot longer but but my boys learned it this is them at a jujitsu tournament where their instructor is just about to mount somebody and choke them out and you notice how happy they are watching that right and they know that they can't criticize the guy that's losing they know that they have no right to criticize the guys losing they're not wrestling this guy they get it they loved both those guys they went and shook both their hands we need to be like that with each other we're too critical sometimes of each other we try to run each other down and we all know that Anthony has faced that with people who tried to run him down iron sharpens iron guys you gotta you gotta stress people enough that they develop but not enough that you break them my boys have learned that the other thing is I let my boys take risks all kinds of risks crazy stuff that a lot of parents don't see very comfortable with first of all we are outside all the time we do not spend our time indoors you cannot be tough if you do not go outside I don't care how much time you spend in the gym I don't care how pretty your quadriceps are or your gluteus maximus in that mirror your ass needs to get outside in mother nature because that is the only thing that makes you tough ask marine and army infantry how they make you tough it ain't the exercises it's living in mother nature with not much food getting in that heat and doing the work anyway you will get mentally and physically tough from that your pain tolerance will go way up so my boys are always outside it's well over 100 degrees out here you can see the playground is completely empty because it's too hot for kids well it ain't too hot for my kids there is no too hot for my kids my kids bring water they know how to ration their water they know when to sit in the shade when they get too hot they control themselves like men and they go out and can do anything they want because I'm confident that they're safe in this particular case I have a boy Jude he's the one on the right Jude was born with a little bit of cerebral palsy he had a lot of trouble with cross body coordination she's like how's this boy wrestling and boxing because I told you speed of learning is way overrated way overrated you know his brother's really coordinated picks things up really quick I said Jude that's overrated all you gotta do is do 10,000 reps to his 1,000 and you'll be right there with him so guess what Jude does Jude says well okay dad when are we gonna do it cause he knows I'll lead by example so then we gotta go outside and do 10,000 jabs over two weeks okay so we worked on climbing up over obstacles and flipping over and this is a big day he just went up and did it himself took about a hundred repetitions he finally got it there are people who don't have the speed of apprehension of other people there are people who aren't as gifted at speaking there are people who have different backgrounds and they don't know the social milieu that we live in right all it means is you just need more reps so don't get stuck on this idea that wow you know I don't I don't know what to do I don't know how to do this anytime you say that to yourself you just go okay what's the first thing I need to know how to do and how many reps do I need just get over that this is us taking a hike again as well over a hundred degrees route by a lake you know this is another thing when we go out hiking we don't have a leader we have leaders whoever's in front is in charge my boys rotate we rotate my boys get to be in charge of me because I believe if you can't take leadership you have no right to give I used to do this little exercise back in my misspent youth as a consultant where I used to list it's a trick I used to do in the morning I'd have everybody list all the good qualities of a good leader then we go to lunch we come back everybody forgotten it and I'd say hey let's list all the qualities of a good follower good employee and that I'd open up the two and lo and behold the list is exactly the same a good follower and a good leader are exactly the same if you can't take leadership you can give it and you have no right to give it why should I take your leadership if you won't take theirs I've taught my boys to to take the leadership and take it seriously our safety is in their hands when they're in charge they have to decide when the water breaks happen what trails are too dangerous what the weather is looking like I don't even tell them how to get back out of the woods they have to figure it out now one day that cost me we almost went to sundown but they've learned I let them lead and solve those problems in a safe environment this is this is them with some of their friends my boys always look to cooperate with other people they just know that anything they do they're going to be better if they're cooperating with other people that's another issue sometimes we may have and especially when it comes to start to coordinate on and cooperate on getting things done to improve our situation we start seeing a kind of hierarchical scrabble for power so this is James with his boxing coach this guy was ranked number two in the world he got knocked out by Loma Chanko that's what knocked him out of the first in my book that's that's pretty good James we've got Olympic talent scouts interested in James for boxing he's he's extremely talented his jab is was perfect the first time he ever threw it his footwork is super super super fast there's video out on YouTube you can go see that too I can't get this boy in front of talent scouts because they won't talk to him because this transgender stuff so we're gonna have to start understanding that the effects of some of the social policies that we're fighting against are going to affect you and your kids in unexpected ways if they're not interested him for this what what about ideological criteria later we know that's already being used for hiring did you know that sentiment analysis is already being used to scan resumes to see if you're a right winger their algorithms looking at your rather resume to determine if you're a right winger or men's rights guy or anti-trans and you're not making it to the hr pop you're getting screened out by machine so one of the bad things about leading by example is you also have to get punched so this is my son practicing his low jab this kid did this for two hours he wouldn't stop didn't want to stop I don't know if it was because he just liked hitting his old man I think it was because he just like hitting something you need successes you got to have successes or you're going to quit so your question you need to ask yourself in our movement is what are our successes where we succeeded what we changed we talk about personal development all the time okay you developed yourself what the hell did you do with yourself what have you made achieved you're developed we need an answer to that question and I submit we probably don't have a good one took my boys to Hawaii the first thing they did when they got to the beach they re-enacted the conquest of Hawaii they went out into the ocean and came up with swords and fought the natives they are here they are up high at a famous restaurant where there's all these special kinds of geckos you know it's your natural instinct to want to do these things you don't have to train anything there's nothing to develop and in a sense it's just letting yourself be unveiled your masculinity just needs to be unveiled it's not something you've learned you already got it that's us in church now I put this photo in here for a very specific reason so one of the things I do I do weapons combat I have for 30 years I went on Philippines I do full contact fighting there all the time I fought with live blades dull blades all of it I think there's a mentality problem with men it's not a problem of masculinity it's a mental attitude problem so when I was in the Marine Corps I always had my squad fixed bayonets even when we were doing a long-range combat why would I do that? because mentally you have the will to close with and engage the enemy you will close with the enemy mentally when you have a weapon in your hand I want to ask you to think about in your local communities that could be your online community but I'm hoping it's your geographical community in the United States what weapons are available to you to use against your enemies what weapons are available to you to defeat the matriarchal control of the laws that are preventing you from getting jobs are going to prevent you from control of your children what weapons are available hope you asked me about that in the questions sometimes you got to do it together contending with one another ought to be for the purpose of getting better to defeat the enemy not to hurt the other guy that attitude I just haven't seen that unfortunately these are me and my boys we're getting blessed by the priests on the name days for my boys remember I told you their name this is on the name day for the Prophet Daniel we believe in God a Trinitarian God we're Christians and I really believe that without some spiritual basis you're not going to stand up to the forces that we're fighting because they are a kind of secular religion you know we talk about that but what's the implication of that it means it means that you're not going to be able to rationally persuade them out of their point of view I just don't believe our enemies really hold their opinions for reasons they hold their opinions because of dispositions feelings a will to power all sorts of things we could talk about you will not be able to argue them out of your position is there a large uncommitted middle on issues that are important to fathers I've tested this in Texas I can't speak to every state but I've tested this in Texas there isn't they're either on your side or they're not you know rationality is one of our big advantages but it can be a disadvantage it can make you think the other guys purely rational so I like this analogy to chess good chess players actually don't racionate over their next move most of the times they don't even think very far ahead actually turns out some of the best chess players say they only think one move ahead it's just always the right move how do they know that? which one's the right move? because they played thousands and thousands of games and when they see the pawns in that arrangement with the rook kind of over in that side of the board they know generally what's worked in the past they have pattern recognition one of the big things that's really good about a convention like this is you get to hear the stories of parents fathers men and even women and it increases your ability to recognize patterns patterns of failure and we talk a lot about patterns of failure but this isn't patterns of failure is it? this is patterns of how to checkmate this is patterns of success what patterns have succeeded? we should ask ourselves that one way because we don't have a lot of successes so you're gonna say well where are we gonna get those? look at your opponents you know what the family law has done to my son how did that happen? I've studied that very closely I've looked at the legislative history I read the laws we had video at that time of the legislature and I looked at the arguments I talked to the people that were in office at that time to know what they were thinking when I went to the Texas legislature last session I got my bill through the senate precisely because I had recognized the patterns that had happened before and I headed off the lieutenant governor of Texas and got it to committee just at the right time where he couldn't stop it they were able to stop me in the house barely barely and it's gonna cost two of them their seats remember I told you about what are your weapons? so in Texas I've let legislatures know very clearly if my son suffers from your inaction you won't have a job in the Texas legislature anymore and two of them are going out two of them are gone they're gonna be defeated in the primary I have not looked for the means of persuasion with these people do I have to persuade someone that cutting the balls and penis off a boy is an affront to morality do I really have to do that? because if I do honestly this is really a person who's at the moral stage of an animal they need to be institutionalized I'm not looking to convince anybody I set out to force them to do what I wanted to do I regarded them as soldiers in my army and I directed them to what I wanted them to do I never asked their permission and if they didn't do what I wanted them to do they suffered for it hard good and hard you can ask many of the legislatures even the ones that eventually supported me they suffered hard for not coming out in support of my bill from the very beginning I'll tell you how much political pressure we put on the chief of staff told me that they had never had a bill and that's a straight numerical calculation this is not an opinion it had had more lobbyists per day on my bills than in the history of Texas on any bill we shut down the phones to the state capitol they had to put in a new phone trunk okay all impressive and I'm kind of bragging I guess but I'm mainly trying to tell you that I didn't know how to do any of this a year and a half ago and everything everybody told me was wrong all of the people that were telling me stuff were wrong and honestly they're well-minded people but they're all women they wanted me to try to persuade people I didn't ever try to persuade people I asked the question how does, and I'll give you an example there's a representative he knows me very well he listened to my issues with my son and did absolutely nothing about it although he told me he would I got his donor list very near me there's a bank and this big, the president of this big bank is one of his big donors you saw that that meme that I created with the judge and the cow so I had a rancher castrating a bull and I put his face, the bank president's face on that cowboy and at the bottom I listed three banks with their addresses and promotions for checking accounts and I went to visit him one day I got an appointment and I said listen I got a problem, this representative who I'm not going to name is not helping me and you're a big donor to him and I think you should get your money back and you shouldn't donate to him anymore if he's not going to stop the chemical castration and physical castration of kids and he said oh I don't get involved in policy like that I said well I'll tell you I normally don't get involved in commercial banking either but I'm going to put 50 people outside your building and we're going to give every customer that comes in your bank this and we're going to show that look they can move their accounts to banks that don't believe in doing this to kids and I said look out your window and there were 50 people there I didn't come there to persuade this bastard this moral ingrate this man who will sell children out for money I didn't go to persuade an idiot like that I told him he's going to lose his damn business or he's going to do what I want him to do which is merely the right thing I don't think about how to persuade our enemies this is James deadlifting his body weight now he didn't believe he could do this he reached out to grab it and he said oh it's too heavy it's too heavy and a friend of mine was there his boxing coach and said you got to try and lift it first you haven't even tried to lift it you just grabbed it and said it's too heavy try it and if it drops out of your hands we'll know it's too heavy and he did then Jude did it 50 times Jude's twice as strong as him these things seem hard like you know I guess I was just dumb like everybody I'll give you another example I'm in the Texas latest nature they tell me the Democrats have tagged my bill in the calendar committee and it's never going to get a vote because it's been tagged so apparently the Democrats have this right to tag bills and then you can't vote on them or something so I'm crazy so I just got the House rule book bought it for 200 bucks read the whole thing tagging's nowhere in there well they've been telling us in Texas for 21 years that they're tagging bills and there's nothing we can do we can't vote on it no such thing completely made up completely made up so then I had you know 100 people show up to the calendar committee they never had a person ever walk in that committee before they keep it in a secret location so we showed up with 100 people it's open meetings in Texas and we asked them any representative here can motion for this bill to have a hearing who's going to do it today or who are we going to report to the news media and to their conservative counties where they're elected who are we going to report that you didn't do that well it's tagged and I said who are we going to have to tell their constituents there's no such thing as tagging you despicable liar they got my bill out the next day but they put it in the 900th bill so I still never got a vote but we tried didn't look like we could do it and then we found out we could everybody had been lied to about what the rules say these are my boys playing flag football that's Jude Jude's a center he's an infallible receiver at close range 100% 100% he can't run very fast because of his cerebral palsy but he never drops a ball never so he's their short range running game for them James is a wide receiver and plays right defensive end which is what I played in my misspent youth these guys have got to learn how to cooperate in a play the plays never go as you plan you got to learn how to cooperate and adapt the play to make it to pull it off right this idea of adaptation right I didn't know what was going to happen when I went to the legislature I didn't know what my elected officials were going to tell me I had no idea what all these grassroots fathers organizations were going to tell me okay I had no idea how many of you are for 5050 parenting you support that idea how many are in favor of that almost everybody okay so through work that I've done I mean I'm not I'm not again I'm nothing special I'm literally not as talented as anybody in this room I'm the least talented guys it was up to me I'd be in a closet programming all day I'm doing this because I got a kid whose life is at stake we just had the number the number two gubernatorial candidate in the state of Texas come out saying that if he's elected he will call an emergency session of the Texas House to pass equal shared parenting that's never happened in any state before never happened in Texas before and is sending absolute shock waves through the family law community right now shock waves here's why he did it one he knows fathers are important and he truly believes that two he believes mothers are important and he truly believes that three he believes children actually need both parents and he truly truly believes that and four he's not afraid to use force to do good he will use force against the enemies of equal shared parenting and make it happen and he doesn't really care the child support receipts to the state go down because both parents are simply taking care of their children themselves somebody asked me about title 4d and what title 4d is in the q&a because it will tell you the incentives for all the evil that we're talking about here so here I am again you know I got a box that's the ring in the back where I always get beat up by the 20 year olds who want to face down their dad in their fantasies they want to beat their dad at something I'm the guy this is where individual training happens that's why I like my sons to be in an individual sport and a team sport both this is where they learn and they keep themselves going you're tired I mean my boys do 24 rounds of this stuff think about me when I'm done with 24 rounds they do 24 rounds they're tired can they keep that technique up you see Jude's dropping that right hand a little bit drop his left hand sorry you see that he's tired he's going to get smacked for it but they have to learn that their individual performance matters and you have to learn that you got more in you than you think you do you may think you don't have any influence you don't know anybody important you live in a small town you're in a big city and you're not involved in anything how do you know you've never done 24 rounds you've never talked to these people you've never gone and asked your precinct leaders hey anybody here for equal shared parenting anybody here I want to deal with this father's rights issue as have you ever asked anybody one we can't do that guys the purpose of self-development is to go into the world and actualize your values there's no purpose to do self-development if you ain't going to do something with it you're going to get strong in a gym that's good what the hell are you going to do with that strength what are you going to do do something with your power and you'd be surprised you're going to find that there's a lot of people thinking the same thing you're thinking and there are a lot of people who say man we tried that that didn't work here's why and then you're going to find out how to do it better so my boys basically have two paths my boy presents as a girl only with his mother and as a boy with everyone else you go two ways this is us climbing up to a cliff up in Palo Alto Canyon boys did not want to do this this was actually a fairly dangerous climb both of them made it to the top neither one of them bitched about it and when they got to the top all they wanted to do was to go down and climb back up it looks scary you think nobody's going to care nobody's going to listen people are going to listen people are starting to understand that father's issues are human issues their children's issues and until you forge yourself into a identity group that can muster the political economic social technological power and dare I say propaganda power you will not be able to affect change and you will not be able to stop this crazy roller coaster of the of matriarchal domination of fathers and family courts and anything else what does that look like first thing you got to know holy matrimony is absolutely not civil marriage read the marriage statutes in your states and you'll discover they have nothing to do with matrimony whatsoever they have 100% to do with the disposition of property in divorce and the disposition of federal funds which are which are matched and collected by the states for their own benefit that's literally all family law is that's all it is there is no security for your posterity under the law you've got to understand that in texas and in most states there is a law that mandates what's called a standard possession schedule in texas that's 24% of the time it is presumed to be in the interest of the children that one parent have the standard possession schedule that means one parent is presumed to be an absent parent and it's presumed that that will be best for the child it is a rebuttable presumption and how many times do you think that gets applied to the mother not much not often we know in texas that it gets applied to the father over 95% of the time that's the actual number from the AG I talked to him about four days ago 95% of the time it's applied to the father so the father is presumed to get 24% and it's presumed that's the best thing for the child in texas law right now why 24% that's an odd number isn't it it maximizes the reimbursements from the federal government for the collection of child support anything over 25% and it starts going down how much money does texas get from the federal government for the collection of child support 66 cents on the dollar how much money is that totally it's half a billion dollars to the state of texas it funds the entire texas attorney general's office the judicial retirement fund is funded from federal reimbursements from title 4d the more child support assigned by judge the larger their retirement in all the states the texas of the attorney general's which administer these programs give quotas to judges for child support that's why in no state will you ever get 50-50 if they give 50-50 to every parent half a billion dollars goes away it's gone this is about money I haven't even talked about title 4e where they give $100,000 for every baby they adopt out what do you think happens in those children's protective service offices when they start getting low on budget they start looking around for an 18 month old white baby with no medical problems adopt them out no more budget problems your enemies instituted this in the 1970s full well-knowing what it was going to do to you as a father full well-knowing it would take away your rights to your posterity they are operating on a level you can't imagine let me tell you how they operate in texas on these gender clinics so there's a genesis clinic called the genesis clinic yes they do that to give the middle finger to christians it's called the genesis clinic in dallas texas and they chop kids private parts out there they chemically castrated them too so at the genesis clinic before they ever build the cost about a hundred million dollars to build I know this because I got legal discovery in my case on us that's about a hundred million dollars to build they went into key senate districts all throughout texas and got local banks on the hook for loans to build up those guys are all big donors to senators in the state of texas you think they want to shut down that clinic and endanger those loans their plot your enemies are playing at a level that you have not even contemplated if you don't for yourself into an identity group that can exert social political economic and propaganda power you will not be able to thwart them self-improvement is not enough you need collective action collective political action this is what's in danger this is the laocoon this is probably one of my favorite sculptures in all all time this is the sculpture that actually started the renaissance in europe uh... medieval sculptors could not believe it when they saw they didn't even think it was real some thought it had been actually buried by god it was so hard to imagine that somebody can do it but this is a laocoon and an angry athena persuaded Poseidon to kill laocoon's sons because he had the temerity to help her enemies in the trojan war that's the story and these are his sons being devoured by the serpents and if you look he's pulling the serpents to his body to let his kids escape in the story none of them do this current social system has so imperiled fatherhood that it is not an exaggeration to say that you are one temper tantrum from a wife from being there with your sons that's what it was for me that's who runs family court gentlemen no matter i'm telling you whether it's republican or democrat i want you to think about it you want to sit in front of that red-haired harpy she's going to make all your parenting decisions she's going to decide whether you can homeschool what public school they go to if they can go to private school what private school they go to who their pediatrician is what psychologist they're going to go to and whether you can get the psychological records and know what the psychologist is teaching or counseling your children did you know that in no state in the united states do you have a right to see the psychological records of your children and counseling counselors are legally allowed to give secret counseling sessions and not tell you in all the fifty states and courts ordered it that's what happened my son they ordered a counselor and the counselor refused to tell me what she was teaching my son and my son told me she's telling me that i'm a girl that's who's going to be in charge of your posterity i have a friend of mine is a christian she changes religion and she's he's being raised by another man he sees this other man seventy five percent of the time and there's nothing you can do to stop it once it starts this is a temptation of eve who tempted eve in the story who remembers this right we haven't gone that far from our our heritage right who tempted adam eve what was adam punished for he wasn't punished for eating the apple he was punished for listening to his wife this is the the plight all children in the modern world this situation these temptations affect adults and then affects kids you've heard jesse lee peterson talk about the hierarchy god over man man over woman woman over child all of the family of dominion over nature notice this is the exact opposite it goes in the exact opposite direction this is how it's actually working it's just that now he's in charge i don't tolerate feminist bullshit anywhere i go i don't tolerate it from my clients and i've told my clients i'll fire them if they do this feminist bullshit i've told them that my my employees do not have to do their crazy ass feminist training we don't do any of that i confront them everywhere and i do it in court too believe me you can ask my judge i expose their feminist presuppositions for the bigotry and false female supremacy that they really are it's just a form of bigotry anti-male bigotry confronted everywhere and the question is how are you gonna do that i've asked you to think about what are the instruments of power that you can bring to bear to confront something like that i would suggest that peterson actually did a pretty good job here he totally destroyed her and it was actually so so uh... amazing that was funny the unbelief funny i mean peterson can barely stop himself from laughing he's really trying not to laugh because he doesn't want to be mean they totally destroyed this one by simply exposing her presuppositions i confronted everywhere i don't tolerate it and i don't want my sons to learn to tolerate it i've even told my sons shivery is not owed to all women and that's an uncomfortable fact we're gonna have to come to grips with shivery was a system which bound both men and women men bound themselves to a life of service and what do women do anybody know that the duties of two duties of women under shivery chastity and obedience where will you find a chase an obedient woman most women are not owed protection for men they have to earn it a red-haired harpy feminist my sons are not going to protect her we're not going to protect people who are trying to destroy the values that we want to build now earlier i was listening to a talk and one of the speakers uh... mister cortez was talking about use the word called hyper-reality anybody familiar with that term hyper-reality yeah so you know Jean Baudrillard he's often listed as a French post-modernist philosopher i would do recommend that you all study post-modernism even if you hate it as i do because there's no doubt that we're living in a post-modern era Baudrillard for example i think was horrified by post-modernism and he was simply describing what he was saying not advocating for it but this idea of hyper-reality is that people actually live in a simulation they don't actually live in the real world anymore he actually wrote a fascinating book called the iraq war never happened and what he shows is that everyone even the battlefield participants know everything that happened by recorded television segments that have been spliced together even the intelligence people were looking at these kind of spliced video feeds and other things really nobody saw what really happened and he said it's the most simulated war in history and he says most people if you look at social media live in a world that's completely fabricated and simulated you know when you see somebody's feed this isn't their real life that's the life they're simulating to you and Baudrillard makes an even further claim and i think it's quite accurate he says it becomes so simulated that the original becomes lost and now it's a simulation with no original a simulacra and at that point that something which is simulated most often becomes the most true the most believable it takes a lot of effort to break yourself out of the simulations it comes in all kinds of ways in the propaganda that were given around fatherhood uh... for example one of the things that i'm always enduring in texas is angry, female legislators will say you guys just don't want to pay child support and i'm supposed to be in the simulation and i'm supposed to say well no we don't mind paying child support of course we want to pay our wives money right, our ex-wives money i'm supposed to say that because that's what everybody says but i'm not in that simulation anymore it took me years to crawl pull my mind out of it and really just bloodily crawl out of it like over broken glass so i just tell them of course i don't want to pay child support i want to support my own kids i want to provide for them myself i don't want to give money to somebody else to provide for them things that i don't want to give them i want to provide for my kids myself and ask what a father is so of course i don't want to pay child support why do you want to make me give my money to somebody else to support my kids when i'm perfectly able to support my kids myself without doing that and they're just like flabbergasted apparently in twenty one years in texas of like fatherhood nobody's ever told them that yeah i don't want to pay child support, i want to support my own kid i'm not in the simulation you gotta break out of their presuppositions so there's an old roman maxim do not quote laws to men with swords it's stupid it's stupid this is kinda how i feel in my situation i feel like i'm taking the laws of science and that could be a bible too laws of morality and throwing them at the gender police who are trying to kill my son that's like quoting laws to men with swords they're coming to beat me and put me in a cage if i don't shut up they want to put me in solitary confinement, i've been threatened with that put me in solitary confinement if i don't shut up these are men with swords they are not coming to negotiate with me so i don't quote laws to them again i ask what are the means of coercion remember we looked at this at the very beginning could i be thrown in solitary confinement i could be like daugenies living in a living in a pot, a clay pot but one good thing about solitary confinement, there'll be no nagging woman to bother me all day any questions? well so, let's clap that's good we've got ten minutes if anyone has any questions all come on up here to the mic and ask jeff hey jeff, great presentation thanks man what do men and fathers need to do to turn this thing around right now i know right now there's the state of kentucky, state of arkansas both have equal shared parenting but what can we do to make a difference, make an impact and put fathers back in children's lives so in both of those cases the question is about how do you change the legal regime around marriage, which makes you more secure in your posterity look at how they won in those states so have you looked in kentucky and looked at how they won how'd they win, tell us effort confronting their legislators, their house reps, their senators uh-huh, okay and generally it took a couple years to get that legislation passed so in texas we've been trying for twenty one years to get it you want to look specifically at what political tactics were used if you want to change the laws and again you're not going to find a legislator who's going to say yeah you're right fathers shouldn't have equal time with their kids, nobody believes that absolutely nobody believes that, the feminists don't actually believe that right for them it's the largest transfer of wealth from men to women in the country that's for them that's what it is it has nothing to do with the children even they wouldn't say that so it's not about persuading and often we don't talk about what kind of tactics, I gave you examples of some concrete tactics I've used to force people to do what the right thing when they don't want to do it uh... having uh... a big bullhorn helps having the ability to communicate with their constituents if you're not going into the key precincts for elected officials and talking to the people there and telling them what they're doing you'd be surprised how many people don't even know that they're doing these things hey jeff, great presentation, thank you you had alluded to some of the uh... incentives that you know sort of drove the legislators and the judges to make the decision so with the 4d you know uh... can you kind of expound on that a little bit because i think it makes it more real to the people who are too who might be on the fence are like uh... is there really a problem? well yes there is even before they take steps to do the actions to correct it, they need to know what it is so the root of this problem is uh... title 4d and title 4e, title 4d is the one i'll talk about because it deals with most custody issues so uh... this was a law that was pushed very hard by jimmy carter in the nineteen seventies uh... it's a law that provides sixty cents on the dollar matching funds for the payment of child so when i pay twenty five hundred dollars a month in child support so when i pay that money sixty six cents on every dollar goes to the state agency that collects the child support alright so they get back two-thirds of the money that they collect and this creates a massive financial incentive for the states to never do anything to reduce child support or take any public policy action that would reduce payments of child support the reason in texas it's the standard possession scale that gives you twenty four percent is that you start getting descending payments back you start losing cents on the dollar when you get above twenty five percent so it's set to maximize payments to the states and some of the incentives are very perverse how can you imagine how could it be possible that you could give quotas to judges for the collection of child support right you don't they don't know the cases that are coming before them they don't know the facts of these cases but they're giving quotas and they have to assign a certain amount once it's assigned how lucky do you think you're gonna be getting it reduced let's say you go through covid and you lose your business can you get your child support reduced it's never in the best interest of the child for the child to have less money is it it's never in the best interest of the state to reduce its own reimbursement under title four d is it so i have a friend in texas he and his wife came to an ex-wife came to an accord they agreed on fifty fifty custody and she waived child support on that basis the texas attorney general sent a lawyer to the hearing where they were finalizing this order and said we don't believe that they should have fifty fifty because no one will pay child support think about that for a second the texas attorney general is arguing against letting a father have fifty percent of the time even when the mother agrees because it reduces child support collections there's a half a billion dollars on the line and very powerful money interests are out there making sure that you will not have control of your posterity and the question for you is can you muster enough political economic social technological and propaganda power to beat them okay i was raised by southern baptists so in my adult life i've done some lobbying also in legislatures for a rebuttal presumption of shared parents equal in shared it has been my experience that in addition to what we know is the typical screaming feminist some of my largest opposition has come from conservative women's religious groups one hundred percent i was wondering if you could share a little bit of your perspective and experience with that uh... so i'll give you a little uh... i'll you know i have and i have a math background so i love to give demonstrations but i've discovered that demonstrations provoke skepticism so i was lead with examples now i've learned i learned slow and i learned the hard way but i do learn so here's an example conversation that i just recently had in frisco texas sitting there with a friend of mine that i'm trying to talk into running for county chair doesn't want to do it and it looks like i didn't twist his arm enough to make him do it but i'm still going to try he's gonna be very good at the job this woman comes up to us and she knows both of us and you may have heard that alan west the candidate for governor his wife got arrested for drunk driving it turns out she wasn't drunk it was just pure harassment alright in dallas county where my kids at dallas county is very corrupt so alan west had not very good things to say to the police officers that roughed up his wife during the arrest and this woman said you know alan west he did not sound like a strong executive he did not sound like a diplomat he did not sound like a gentleman and so my friend uh... what is calling pat sitting next to me he says oh yeah that's that's right i remember that you know he's going on and then she kinda like breaks and then she looks at me she shouldn't have done that so i said uh... i don't think you should be setting standards for how men communicate i don't tell you women how to talk while you tell us men how we should talk i said did you know alan west is a combat veteran that he's he's like combat battalions in iraq i said did you know that did you know that alan west has been in bayonet combat hand to hand combat with our enemies and he has killed men with his bare hands i said did you know that and she's just looking at me like what and i said do you really expect some alphama male like that to talk nicely about somebody roughen up his wife do you really expect men of action to talk like effeminate diplomats in long togas in the roman senate like what do you expect a combat veteran to talk like we men who heard him understood exactly what he was talking about we don't like other men putting their hands on our women i said so don't come enforcing your uh... you know you're uh... i forgot the word i used it was it was not nice it was uh... busy body or something like that don't bring your busy body stuff over here telling us men out of time if you want an effeminate man you already have a governor governor abut state of texas and you can vote for him you want effeminate man that's your boy very presidential very diplomatic doesn't do a damn thing for you so there is a there is a huge problem of this there's a giant problem of white knight men will support women no matter whether they're wrong or right and conservative women oddly enough by into the feminist narrative that women have been oppressed throughout history how many of you believe that who believes that you believe it you believe it as well that do you believe that women were oppressed uniquely oppressed throughout history no i don't either it doesn't make sense right so you know we talk about you know that they have the right to vote well neither than most men you know uh... eighty percent of women appropriated only twenty percent of men appropriate we know that from my record in a study by any measure of success men have been probably had a worse at least as bad as women that's for sure everybody was oppressed in history that's how it was so they but they buy into that and then they make that with a kind of conservative values so they have all the grievances of feminists dressed up in you know a kind of christian theology that says that they should rule the house and they become these busy bodies that tell you what to do all the time and what you should do and how you should act all sorts of stuff uh... in my case like where i live in the area of texas that i live i mean you have to actually neutralize all these women before you can even like run for office like they they just will create this entire gossip network they're very powerful but one of the things that i would love to see us do and it's worked for me very well personally and it's worked for all my friends is simply telling women the truth you don't get to tell me how to talk you don't have my social responsibilities when you do you can tell me how to exercise them otherwise sit down i'm not gonna tell you how to be a mom don't tell me how to do my business don't i don't i don't i don't have any i don't have any bones about telling them what he represents is patriarchy we're here to do work as men as patriarchy there's nothing more natural than being a father
