Grace Schara Lawsuit Update

Date: August 12, 2024 Host: Jim Schneider ​Guest: Scott Schara MP3 | Order

Scott Schara is the father of Grace Schara, the 19-year-old daughter with Down Syndrome who tested positive for COVID, was hospitalized and treated following the protocols carried out in hospitals across the country.  Grace was ushered into eternity on October 13, 2021.  Scott is presently engaged in a landmark lawsuit, Schara vs. Ascension Health et al.  He warns about the dangers of incentivized healthcare.  His work and story have been chronicled in a chapter of the Wall Street Journal bestseller, Rise of the Fourth Reich.

This broadcast is the 5th on this important topic since January 5th of 2022.  Scott gave a brief review of the details of Grace’s one-week stay in the hospital and the protocols that actually didn’t follow the standards that you hear about concerning COVID-19, which typically involve remdesivir and ventilators.

Scott then discusses the lawsuit which is based upon 5 claims: wrongful death, medical malpractice, lack of informed consent, medical battery and a declaratory judgment related to the illegal “do not resuscitate” order.  Scott also noted the illegal combination of medicines that Grace was given before her death (Precedex, lorazepam and morphine).

News Roundup & SD Abortion Ballot Question

Date: August 9, 2024 Host: Jim Schneider MP3 | Order

Jim manned the microphone and presented listeners worldwide with many headlines to prayerfully consider.  Here’s a sample of what the broadcast had to offer:

–A CNN panel laughed and joked how they can now criticize Donald Trump concerning his age claiming he’s “diminished”.

–Congressman Jamie Raskin jumped upon his party’s wild claims that Donald Trump is an insurrectionist.  Now Raskin appears to be planning his own insurrection by having Congress deny Trump the presidency should he win in November. 

–The campaign of Vice President Kamala Harris has attempted to moderate her image on border security.  Her campaign chief suggested that she should keep in place a Biden era executive order cracking down on illegal border crossings.  This is in spite of the fact that as a Senator from California she actively opposed border enforcement proposals and immigration enforcement advocates. 

–Video from 2017 has surfaced on social media where Kamala Harris is encouraging everyone to “stay more woke than less woke”.

–The Harris campaign has altered it’s biography of Minnesota Governor Tim Walz on his campaign website, making a change in its reference to his military service amid ongoing scrutiny.

–Marine veteran and Republican vice presidential nominee Senator J.D. Vance hit Minnesota Governor Walz for lying about his military service claiming he carried guns in war.

–Kamala Harris is the first sitting vice president to visit a Planned Parenthood clinic but she was not alone.  Her newly chosen running mate, Tim Walz, was right there.

–Data from the Minnesota Department of Health shows that at least 8 babies that survived abortions in the state were left to die.

–Governor Tim Walz has earned the praise of left-wing Congresswoman Ilhan Omar.

–Moms across the country see Governor Walz as the most anti-parent running mate Kamala Harris could have chosen.

–The Democratic Socialists of America took a victory lap on social media after Vice President Kamala Harris named Tim Walz as her running mate. 

–Tim Walz instituted a program to bribe teens with $200 VISA cards to take the COVID-19 shot. He also offered them a chance to win a $100,000 scholarship.

The second quarter hour featured an interview with Dr. Patti Giebink, M.D., a board certified OB/GYN, a former abortion doctor, and the author of the book Unexpected Choice. A South Dakota native currently residing in Chamberlain, she has delivered hundreds of babies both domestically and in hospitals overseas. She’s a Fellow at the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG), and a member of the South Dakota State Medical Association.  Dr. Giebink talked about misinformation taking place in that state pertaining to Amendment G which will be coming up on their November ballot.

Global Pandemic Preparedness Summit

Date: August 8, 2024 Host: Jim Schneider ​Guest: Alex Newman MP3 | Order

Alex Newman is an award-winning international freelance journalist, author, researcher, educator and consultant.  He is senior editor for The New American.  He’s co-author of Crimes of the Educators, author of Deep State: The Invisible Government Behind the Scenes and author of, Indoctrinating Our Children to Death.  He’s also the founder of Liberty Sentinel.

Many breathed a sigh of relief when the World Health Assembly failed in their attempt to pass a pandemic treaty.  Crosstalk warned listeners that this failure would not deter efforts to bring the matter back.  More meetings were to come concerning the passing of a treaty as global leaders would come together and keep the topic of pandemics on the front burner.

So while families are on vacation this summer, the globalist agenda isn’t resting.  Just one week ago, July 29th and 30th, there was a Global Pandemic Preparedness Summit held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.  The meeting brought together experts from  manufacturing, research and development, government officials, civil society representatives and leaders from industry and the global health community.

The Pandemic Preparedness Summit was convened by the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI).  Alex described CEPI as one of the most important organizations you’ve never heard of.  The idea for this organization goes back to 2016 and was portrayed as a partnership between the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the World Economic Forum, Klaus Schwab, a number of governments and the global health authorities at the World Health Organization.

Alex sees this organization as the most perfect representation that he’s seen of Klaus Schwab’s model for government.  Schwab has spoken openly about this new kind of governance and economic model.  It’s the stakeholder model that is void of free markets and limited government.  Instead you have business, government, the non-profit sector and elites all working together toward the same goals.  Alex sees CEPI as the epitome of this.  He described the goal this way: “It’s governments, industry, the elites behind the scenes all working together on a singular mission; in this case, too extort humanity for enormous amounts of money under the guise of providing, quote/unquote, vaccines and then to inject as many people as possible with what I believe are toxic concoctions masquerading as healthcare products.”   

All this appears to be preparation for the next pandemic…or is “plandemic” a better term?  You be the judge as you listen to this broadcast that also reviews the problems associated with mRNA-based “vaccines”, global surveillance systems and capabilities and so much more.

Islam:  Politics and Violence

Date: August 7, 2024 Host: Jim Schneider ​Guest: Usama Dakdok MP3 | Order

Usama Dakdok is the founder of the Straight Way of Grace Ministry.  He’s the speaker on the daily radio broadcast, Revealing the Truth About Islam.  He speaks fluent Arabic and has translated the Qur’an into English.  He is the author of Exposing the Truth about the Qur’an and Exposing the Truth About Jihad and the booklets, The Violent Truth about Islam and The Straight Way to Eternal Life.

Yesterday the decision was finalized by Vice President Kamala Harris to choose Minnesota Governor Tim Walz to be her running mate.  Walz is an aggressive supporter of abortion and the LGBTQ agenda.  However, on this edition of Crosstalk, Jim and Usama took a look at another side of the ticket as it relates to the issue of Islam. 

Beginning with Harris, you’ll hear from her own words her support for Islam as she notes how we must reject phrases like “radical Islamic terror” and “illegal alien”.  What she fails to recognize, and as Usama explained, there are six verses in the Qur’an where Allah calls himself a terrorist because he terrorized the infidels.  This is consistent with the 1,450 years of terrorism history from this religion, yet when Usama and others speak the truth about Islam, they’re accused of preaching hate.  

Her running mate, Tim Walz, has also been a promoter of Islam. You’ll understand why when you hear an audio clip from the governor himself.  In spite of the national security implications of Islam that Usama has warned about many times over the years, Governor Walz expresed his support, even going so far as desiring to host the first Iftar celebration at the governor’s residence.   

There’s much more to hear, including input from listeners nationwide.

Israel on High Alert

Date: August 6, 2024 Host: Jim Schneider ​Guest: Dr. Richard Schmidt MP3 | Order

Dr. Richard Schmidt is pastor of Union Grove Baptist Church and founder of Prophecy Focus Ministries.  He’s the speaker on the weekly TV program, Prophecy Focus and the radio broadcast, Prophecy Unfolding.  He spent 32 years in law enforcement including that of Acting Sheriff of Milwaukee County until his retirement.  He has authored several books including: Are You Going to a Better Place?, Daniel’s Gap Paul’s Mystery, Tribulation to Triumph: The Olivet Discourse, Globalism: The Great World Consumption and Artificial Intelligence: Transhumanism and the De-evolution of Democracy. 

Pastor Schmidt brought a biblical perspective to two major items in the news–the new Kamala Harris/Tim Walz presidential team and the tensions between Israel and Iran.  In the latter case, he discusses how biblical prophecy shows God is not through with the nation of Israel and how they will eventually turn to Christ as at the present time they are serving God in unbelief.

So will there be a hostage deal or cease-fire?  What are we to make of the tunnels found in Rafah?   While rockets fired at Israel are being taken out by their “Iron Dome”, is all of this tension setting the stage for the Ezekiel 38-39 war?  These and other questions were answered, while listeners were given their chance to respond to this situation that Crosstalk continues to watch closely.

Climate Change for Kids…and Parents Too

Date: August 5, 2024 Host: Jim Schneider ​Guest: Ken Ham MP3 | Order

Ken Ham is founder and CEO of Answers in Genesis and its two life-changing attractions, the highly acclaimed Creation Museum, and the world-renowned Ark Encounter.  Ken is a biblical apologist and author of more than 30 books. Some of his latest include Divine Dilemma (understanding death, disease, and suffering), Divided Nation (about today’s culture wars), and the devotional commentary Creation to Babel.  Ken is a blogger and speaker on Answers…with Ken Ham.

Ken described the climate change movement as a religious, anti-God movement that causes man to become his own God.  In this regard he described the time last year when John Kerry returned from the World Economic Forum.  Kerry described how there’s an elite group of people that will save mankind and the planet.  That’s unbiblical because it’s God who saves, not man.  

So just as with the creation/evolution issue, the beliefs of people determine their worldview.  That in turn determines how they’ll view things like fossils, life, or in the case of this broadcast…climate.  It appears to be all about fear mongering in order to obtain control.    

Why do we need carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?  Why is water vapor so important?  Why is there an emphasis on not eating meat and not having children among the climate change crowd?  Can man destroy the earth?  Hasn’t the climate always been changing?  Does observational science compare with the information put forth by those spreading fear of climate change?  Ken answers these questions, as he describes his new book, on this edition of Crosstalk.

News Roundup & Comment

Date: August 2, 2024 Host: Jim Schneider MP3 | Order

Here’s a sample of news stories presented by Jim on this edition of the News Round-Up:

–Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant confirmed the death earlier this month of Mohammed Deif, dubbed the ‘Osama bin Laden of Gaza.’  

–Hamas Political Bureau Chief Ismail Haniyeh was killed by an explosion device that detonated in his room and not by a missile as previously believed, according to the New York Times.  According to the report, the bomb was planted approximately two months ago in the guesthouse, which is managed and protected by the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps and is part of a large compound in northern Tehran. 

–Iranian leader Ali Khamenei vowed revenge for the assassination of the Hamas political chief.  Khamenei said, “The criminal, terrorist Zionist regime martyred our dear guest in our territory and has caused our grief, but it has also prepared the ground for a severe punishment.” 

–Russia has proposed that the U.N. Security Council adopt a statement to condemn the assassination of the Hamas leader but the proposal was blocked by the U.S., the U.K. and also by France.

–Iran reportedly took in nearly 16 billion in profits from its illicit oil trade over the past several months, heightening the Biden/Harris administration’s perennial lax enforcement of sanctions meant to stymie Tehran’s cash flow. 

–Alejandro Mayorkas has replaced Director Cheatle with the man whose job was to  oversee the protective details that failed former President Trump.  That man is acting Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe who worked for the Obama White House.

–Acting Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe appeared before the Senate Judiciary Committee and Senate Homeland Security Committee on Tuesday.  It was a joint hearing on the assassination of former President Trump on July 13th.  Jim provided audio from an exchange with Senator Josh Hawley during the hearing.

–Another exchange during the hearing involved Senator Ted Cruz.  Again, Jim provided audio.

–FBI Deputy Director Paul Abbate said that the agency still does not know how the would-be alleged assassin managed to get a rifle on the roof from which he fired.

–On Wednesday, Senator Roger Marshall called for a crisis intervention team to take over the Secret Service following the security failures. 

–One of the men that was critically wounded at the Trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, has been released from the hospital but still has a long road to recovery.

–A Pennsylvania Congressman who witnessed the assassination attempt against former President Trump is going to be leading the House task force charged with investigating what went wrong and recommending solutions to help ensure that such an attack does not happen again.

–A survey indicates that most Americans (68%) say VP Kamala Harris was involved a great deal in covering up Biden’s health.

–Just over a week ago, lesbian Senator Tammy Baldwin of Wisconsin opened for the first presidential campaign rally for VP Kamala Harris.

Hateful LGBTQ Adherents Issue Threats

Date: August 1, 2024 Host: Jim Schneider ​Guest: Mat Staver MP3 | Order

Mat Staver is founder & chairman of Liberty Counsel.  Mat is a constitutional attorney with three landmark cases before the U.S. Supreme Court.  He’s an author and the host of the radio broadcasts Faith & Freedom and Freedom’s Call.

It is Christians that are often accused of hate for simply agreeing with the Bible  that the practices espoused by the LGBTQ movement are an abomination to God.  To put it another way, such individuals sometimes accuse Christians of projecting hate when in reality, they are the ones that are guilty of such behavior.

The latest example is the extreme hate being shown Kim Davis through threats of physical violence, rape, death and arson.  Kim is a retired Rowan County, Kentucky, clerk who several years ago boldly refused to violate her conscience when confronted with having to issue a marriage license to people of the same sex.  

Upon asking for a religious accommodation, Kim was sued and ended up in jail for six days which brought her international attention.  She eventually did receive her religious accommodation from then Governor Mat Bevin, but the ACLU continued to press forward and now she has a judgment against her for $360,000.

The reason Kim’s case is catching so much media attention once again is because this case could be the one to overturn the 2015 Obergefell decision.  Mat explains why and how this is causing not only Kim, but Liberty Counsel to be under threat of violence for daring to represent Davis in this battle and help her stand up for her constitutional rights.

SCOTUS Targeted for Takeover

Date: July 30, 2024 Host: Jim Schneider ​Guest: William J. Federer MP3 | Order

William Federer is a nationally known speaker, historian, author, and president of Amerisearch, Inc.  He’s the speaker on The American Minute daily broadcast.  He has authored numerous books including, America’s God and Country Encyclopedia of Quotations, Who is the King in America?, and Socialism: The Real History From Plato to the Present – How the Deep State Capitalizes on Crises to Consolidate Control.

In 1937, Democrat President Franklin D. Roosevelt didn’t like the fact that the Supreme Court was not supporting all of his “New Deal” programs. Such programs were taking power away from citizens, local and state authorities and giving it to the federal government.  For example, Roosevelt outlawed private ownership of gold and he took over factories and farms.

The Supreme Court was the “check and balance” against this trampling of people’s rights.  In response, Roosevelt wanted to make the Supreme Court a “rubber stamp” for his policies.  This meant a showdown was about to take place.  However, that never happened because a couple of Supreme Court justices died and he was able to appoint replacements that were sympathetic to his reforms. 

It appears that a similar power grab is under way by the Biden/Harris administration.  A press release from the Harris for President campaign said the following:

“That is why President Biden and I are calling on Congress to pass important reform–from imposing term limits for Justices’ active service, to requiring Justices to comply with binding ethics rules just like every other federal judge. And finally, in our democracy, no one should be above the law so we must also insure that no former president has immunity for crimes committed while in the White House.”

Review this broadcast where you’ll learn from history why this call for reform is so troubling and hear how listeners feel about this issue as well.

Fatal Attack Targets Israel Again

Date: July 29, 2024 Host: Jim Schneider ​Guest: Chris Katulka MP3 | Order

Chris Katulka is assistant director of North American Ministries at The Friends of Israel Gospel Ministry and host of The Friends of Israel Today radio program.  He is a Bible teacher, writer for Israel My Glory magazine and is author of the book, Israel Always.

This past Saturday, 12 young people were killed when a rocket hit a soccer field in the Golan Heights.  The attack came on the heels of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech before the U.S. Congress.  Interestingly, the speech was boycotted by U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris who’s running for the Democratic nomination for president.

This broadcast looked at the attack, the prime minister’s U.S. visit, the protests during his visit, the cease-fire talks and Israel being targeted by protesters at the Olympics. 

Why has the White House been so quiet about this latest attack on Israel?  What are we to make of the opening ceremony of the Olympics that blasphemed Jesus and the Last Supper?  Chris, as well as listeners, had much to say regarding these points, on this edition of Crosstalk.
