[ugly sounds] ♪ >> jesse: if there is one thing the left is successful at it's destruction. they aren't that great at building things, but boy, kat they tear something down. the family unit, the english language, gender but physically as well. the left is a wrecking ball. in 2020 they for uppered cities

and toppled statues, statues of the people who built the country. no one was safe. [chanting] [stand your ground] [screams] [ bleep ] [ bleep ] [ bleep ]. >> jesse: as for democrats in d.c. they said let the people do what they want. >> it's up to the communities to decide what statues they want to see. i don't care that much about statues. >> people will do what they do. >> jesse: here at "primetime" we're against the tearing down of statues generally. we prefer to erect new statues because we learn from history. we don't erase it but if there is one statue we can make an excepting for to be torn down it's satan. the satanic temple is displaying a statue of lucifer in the iowa

capitol. we don't know why iowa politicians sanctioned this. it's not even a legitimate religion. they put up the penta gram, an occult symbol for half goat and half human. they celebrated their satanic victory by posting hail satan and put it next to the nativity scene which is a declaration of spiritual warfare. >> though they went through the correct channels the display is getting pushback. >> one, i hope people realize spiritual warfare is real. that there are evil satanic forces that are trying to infiltrate our state. >> iowa resident shelley said she was shocked to see the alter at the capitol so she organized a group to pray near the row two-on-oneda christmas tree. >> jesse: they did the same thing two years ago in the illinois state capitol and it led to a christian

confrontation. [indistinguishable voices] >> let satanic thought prevail now and forevermore. >> jesse: lawmakers in iowa say their hands are tied. i'm not buying that. one of the state's representatives said they can't discriminate on the basis of religion and they can either allow all displays or none. give me a break. it's not a religious display it's a religious attack. a satanic attack on christianity. the satanic the early originally wanted to put a real goat head and stink up the capitol. these are the kind of lunatics we're dealing with. the founder went on christian and said he's not trying to be provocative which is like burning the bible on steps of a church and claiming you're not trying to be provocative. >> was the intent to simply provoke people who of christian faith might find that to be against their religion, not just

objectionable in and of itself but actually against something that they believe? >> well, for one thing, no. we don't do this just to provoke and offend to him but i also want to offer the caveat even if that were what we were doing, even if we were offering criticism of mainstream traditional religious organizations, i would defend our right to do that. >> jesse: so these are the same people who started putting satan clubs in elementary schools. they are even opening up a iclu in tennessee right after christmas. what do parents say? >> why bring the devil into a school full of minors. >> my children will not be involved in that, you know, at the school program. >> satan has no rule in this district. >> it's very young children and they are being used for political agenda or some kind of an agenda that has no place in our schools. >> jesse: i actually spoke to the leader of this satanic

temple. lucian about these clubs last year. >> if the clubs are evil why should a kid be in an evil club? >> obviously we don't view satan as evil and it really doesn't matter to us what your mythology is surrounding satan. >> jesse: primetime believes the satanic telephone can express themselves however they want. if you want to worship evil go ahead. it's your choice to go to hell but we draw the line at ridiculing our religion, physically and symbolically attacking it in public before christmas. we don't have to allow that. we don't have to tolerate your intolerance. one man actually took matters into his own hands. michael cassidy, a former u.s. navy reserve pilot from mississippi traveled to the iowa capitol and tore down the satanic temple's display. not the goat head satanic statue right down. he said he was following his conscience. the satanic people got angry. imagine that.

>> they denigrated the local government for following the law and opening the public forum to all viewers and they still felt the need to tear down the statue or the display that was put up by our iowa congregation. i think it was a real act of cowardice. cowardice dressed up a as heroism. there is a certain point at which we need some adults in the room to tell people what our liberal democratic values are, what their value is, why we uphold them, what they are good for. >> jesse: god puts a goat head next to the main cher on christmas and now he's saying they need adults in the room. the satanic temple is now lecturing us on liberal democratic values? cassidy is arrested, and he's charged with fourth degree criminal mischief. he's been released and americans are rallying behind him. michael, is this something that you plotted or is this something that you just did on the spur of

the moment? >> thanks for having me, jesse. this was certainly a spur of the moment kind of thing. i saw that this was going on. i was surprised that the legislature allowed it up and that they didn't do anything to take it down. just to take it down, and so, i got to the capitol and i didn't know what to expect when i got there. just like that scene in illinois with tons of people chanting and what not. i didn't know what was going to be there but nobody was there, and it offended me. it touched a nerve. it was righteous indignation. i call it christian civil disobedience. and, yes, i took the statue that was there and the idol, whatever you want to call it, and then it's no longer there. >> jesse: how precisely did you

decapitate satan? >> pulled its head off. >> jesse: just pulled the head right off and let it crash on the ground. >> pulled it off and then, it's just some cheap fabric probably like, i don't know, five or $10, something like that. tore it off. pulled it apart. put it in the garbage bag, and then i went down to security and told them what i did. i wasn't running away or anything like that. i told them what i did there, very professional. then they gave me the citation, and sent me on my way. >> jesse: all right. beams of light started to shoot down from the heavens, right on to your head. i'm sure. okay. counselor, right now, i think, was it biden-harris, didn't they bail out the people that toppled the statue of thomas jefferson. do you expect democrats maybe to help fund or help donate to your client's go fund me here? this is satan. not really in the same league as

jefferson. >> no. we certainly don't expect those kind of donations but there have been a lot of people that have come together and been incredibly generous and have wanted to stand by a christian who was taking a stand for good. this is obviously a question of good and evil and it's important in our society that we recognize that that's what really motivated michael to do this and there are a lot of people willing to stand by him and we'll ensure that everything is done that's possible to give him equal protection under the law. >> jesse: these satanic people do they really have a right to erect this thing because it doesn't even seem like they are a real religion? >> so that's a great question. under the first amendment, under our case law, there has not been a single case that's ever found that satanism can be considered a religion under our constitution and even more than that, even more than that, blasphemy laws, anti-blasphemy laws have been upheld by our supreme court into the 20th

century. >> jesse: so why are the politicians in iowa allowing it? >> fear. they are afraid to take a stand, and they are afraid to challenge this, when the law is clear and regardless of that they are afraid to challenge evil and that's what we need to do but that's the problem with christians and the church in this country. we have to be able to take a stand. we can't buy into the myth of neutrality in the public square. otherwise we get chaos. >> jesse: i'm not really into toppling statues but if there was one statue in the whole country that deserves to be toppling it's definitely satan. guys, merry christmas. >> merry christmas, jesse is. >> thank you for having us on. >> jesse: no one loves jesus in america more than lee greenwood. lee, tell us what's going on. >> you know, you're exactly right. this is the reason for the season. we all have to recognize that and the last time i remember being in court you raise your right hand and you swear under god you're going to tell the truth. the president had to do the same

thing by putting his hand on a bible. i got the bible for you. this is a bible with a constitution in it. what's wrong with that? to know how our founding fathers started this country and fact of this bible is the constitution, declaration of independence, the bill of rights and the pledge of allegiance and my lyrics for god bless the usa. i'm on the right side of the fence. i'm not going to go with sa satanism. i'm just going to go with god. >> jesse: tell us how we can get this bible, lee greenwood all in one? >> very easy. go to leegreenwood.com and look for the tab that says god bless the usa bible. order one just before christmas and we'll try to get it out for you. you all should have one of these. >> jesse: i already got one. it's on my bookshelf. i haven't cracked it open yet, i've been a little busy but i'll get around to it this weekend. if you went face-to-face with satan, lee, how would you handle it? >> well, i would just say there is somebody a little stronger

than you. remember, we threw you out of heaven so god will be waiting on my side and that's all i'm going to do is stand firm with my faith and i'll stand firm for america as well. and with my song, god bless the usa, it seems to resonate with 99% of the country. i don't think the people who are satanisms would sing my song but they are better. >> jesse: it's a great song and it definitely gives everybody a chill when they play it at these political rallies. thanks for coming on. i'll get to the reading assignment later. lee greenwood, everybody, go check him out. >> thank you very much. merry christmas to you. >> jesse: to you as well. >> hunter biden has been speaking for hours at pod casts instead of speaking to congressional investigators. hunter says he has burning needs, and incredible stamina. >> i paint at least eight hours a day. which i love. it is my meditation.

it is that space of freedom between stimulus and response. and the reason why i produce as much as i produce is because it is a burning need to stay on the canvass. we all face these existential threats in our lives. i've gone through mine and i still continue to go through them today but i know the path. it's a choice that i have every morning. i have every morning a whether or not i want to continue on the hero's path, not that i'm a hero but continue on the hero's path or whether i'll do the easier thing and step off and i'm not going to step off. >> jesse: hunter has burning needs. have a doctor check that out and if hunter thinks he's on the hero's path he's driving drunk again. there is nothing heroic about hunter biden. he's either on the path to prison or maybe a party, or maybe a pardon more like it. also hunter wants you to know

he's really deep. >> everything i paint is some kind of abstract version of something beautiful. and that hummingbird and the ones next to it, harbingers of hope in some ways. and so i got really obsessed with birds for a long time and still am to a certain degree, in my paintings. but they all have deep, deep, deep, deep meaning for me, and it's the escape. the escape from the depths. it's the escape from that prison. >> jesse: hunter, the hummingbird. i always saw him more of a woodpecker. maybe a swallow. and when i finally realized what hunter is talking about, it's about as shallow as you would expect. hunter is still trying to sell paintings to whatever sleazy foreign national will buy it. he's going on a publicity tour

for his finger paintings. >> how many paintings do you think you make in a year? >> oh, at least 50. >> and where can people see them? >> burgess gallery, george burgess in new york, he's always so positive about everything that i do. he makes me feel like every piece of art that i send him is a masterpiece which is really cool to feel. >> jesse: that's what you do with children. oh, little johnny. it's a masterpiece. still being treat like a kid. biden could be facing impeachment, his son could be facing prison but they haven't stopped the drift. art is in the eye of the beholder and even today hunter is beholding the bag.

going to this party covering their faces from the paparazzi that were interested in it? this is what you get. it's the political progressive movement in a nutshell. they want to lecture us, these elected officials on what it moons to be tolerant, diverse, and inclusive and what's the product of this woke utopia? segregated christmas parties. if you flip this, jesse, and you had a white mayor who said i'll going to invite all the white elected officials to a party at the house and not invite anyone else there would be outrage and rightfully so. most people know it's the wrong thing to do. you don't exclusive people based off the color of their skin. it's so basic and yet these woke politicians don't understand it. >> jesse: did she look nervous because she looks nervous on camera. >> yes. she did. i should say that i don't think she has a lot of reason to be nervous. there is not a lot of

journalists in these parts that are asking these questions. i was totally alone. it wasn't like a gaggle of people hounding her for answers. it was just me so she knew she just had to get into the tea party-party and then she would get out of the way. >> jesse: grace what about the seven whites, we call them, what, the uninvited whites? are they upset at all or do they just not feel like going to an additional christmas party? >> i think from what i've heard from the councilmen and women, they are happy not to go. they are not easily offended but i don't think it sets the right tone. for someone who has so much pride in the city of boston and there is such a rich history here, there is so much to be proud of, the last couple of weeks and the last few spectacles between the president of harvard at those congressional hearings and now mayor wu it's doing us a huge disservice and this is what all this elite education is creating

54-year-old matthew perry died from the acute effects. he had been receiving infusion therapy for depression and anxiety. however it goes on the say that his exact method of intake is unknown. per the medical examiner investigator's report his last known treatment was 1 1/2 weeks prior to death and that it could not have been from the infusion therapy since ketamine's half lyse is three hours or less. other effects include drowning, coronary artery de seize and a prescription people used to help other people quit their opioid dependency. he was reportedly clean for the past 19 months. he was pronounced dead after his assistant found him unresponsive floating face down in his hot tub on october 28. it comes after his decades long

struggle with alcohol and drug use which resulted in his brief stint on life support. dozens of stomach surgeries and other severe medical problems. perry spent years in and out of treatment centers and sober living facilities. as he detailed in a memoir that he released last year in his efforts to help others fight addiction. >> the best thing about me, bar none, is if somebody comes up to me and says i can't stop drinking, can you help me? i can say yes and follow up and do it. when i die, i don't want friends to be the first thing that's mentioned. i want that to be the first thing that's mentioned. >> also perry's manner of death was determined as accidental. both drug and drowning-related according to this autopsy report. jesse? >> jesse: thanks, kristina. so terrorist iman is calling for all out war against the west. he's ordering his fellow muslims to rise up and take action. this muslim preacher isn't in

the middle east. he's in michigan. the man was born in the usa in dearborn, michigan. he hates jews, christians, and wants a holy war. when a car bomb killed four americans in saudi arabia in 1995, he sent a fax to cnn praising the attack saying this. the first and main goal behind this first series of bombings is to kick the jews, christians, and infidels from the purified lands of the arabian peninsula. almost 30 years later, he's still out for blood. calling for muslim children all across america to transition into lone wolves. >> the muslims in the west, especially the youth in the west, especially the youth in america, need to wake up. the current events are a wake-up call for muslims to start normalizing and mentioning jihad's proper meaning and putting it back into their vocabulary. jihad must be a common, normal

term on the tongues and on social media. if you can't raise your child telling him you want him to grow up to be a jihadist, you're part of the problem. >> jesse: beautiful library. this smacks of sedition. if this man were a white christian we would already hear the percussion of swat team battering rams crushing through the door. the feds know who he is. they have already put him behind bars. he was convicted of nearly 50 counts of bank fraud, wire fraud, money laundering, failure to file income tax returns and felon in possession of firearms. same rap sheet as hunter. he spent six years in prison and now he's out advocating for the destruction of the constitution and replacing with it sharia law. >> when muslims want to apply sharia law in their countries, law of our forefathers, the law

that is founded those countries on, they are considered extremists and fundamentalists. >> jesse: it's really too bad the fbi is busy rifling through baron trump's bed shoots looking for crossfire hurricane documents that make them look like clowns. remember how the fbi entrapped christians into a gretchen whitmer kidnapping plot. what is the fbi doing here with this guy? you know what they did today? the fbi made a big announcement. they are adding another letter to lgbtq plus. i'm not kidding. there it is. that was their big announcement today. this guy, we could probably take him counsel pretty easily. he lives in dearborn and his representative is rasheed tlaib. she's been silent while declaring war on infidels. doing her job representing the

will of the people. fox host joins me. trump said march peacefully to the capitol and they indicted him. this guy says go kill americans and he's sitting there putting his-feet up next to his leather bound book collection. >> i got to cut the fbi a break. they didn't add one, they added three. the q, the i, and the a to the plus. this is very porch detail. but, look at this guy. this guy is not yemen or afghanistan. he was born in michigan, and he's preaching jihad, martyrdom and your kids should be muja -- whether it's dearborn or minneapolis, minnesota, where i'm from, you have a lot of

madrases and a lot of clerics who speak very radical things. how much are we surveilling that. how much do we understand about that? how many people were motivated to go fight for isis and al qaeda. >> jesse: the catholics are the only ones who deserve -- do you remember when obama through a missile at that jihadi preacher somewhere in the middle east because he was inspiring jihad. i'm not saying we send a missile into dearborn but at least knock on the guy's door. >> we know this guy is actively inspiring people to go fight and now asking them to be home-grown terrorists. if anything meets the definition of the fbi, it's our boy here and here's what is scary. real quick. 74% of the muslims in france recently between the age of 18 and 25 hear more about sharia law than the french republic's law. if you don't work on assimilation which is what he's
