E247: We Welcome Kennedy Liberals

with Special Guest Pamela Garfield Jaeger

 

E247 Introduction

When I had Dr. Mark McDonald on recently, he touched on something that really resonated with me. That traditional liberals (Kennedy liberals) and conservatives actually have a ton in common. That it is really the radical left that is causing the rift with their Marxist ideas of hate America, hate individual freedom, transgenderism and other weird notions disconnected from reality. The leftists, not to be confused with Kennedy liberals, are distorting the real dynamic by using the bullhorn of mainstream media and social media to drown out and attempt to suffocate any unity between conservatives and Kennedy liberals.

Sure, there are differences between these two sides but it is not a gulf. It is a stream that we can cross together, I believe.

These bridge-building episodes have been some of my favorites over the past two or three seasons and maybe my most important ones. I like to think that, even though I am a FORMER Kennedy liberal and I now embrace more libertarian and conservative values, my listeners can still hear my stand for humanity. And if Kennedy liberals and conservatives have much common ground, then this is the group that I want to speak to. Because if these two meet across the small stream we need to cross, then our best days in America are still ahead of us, despite the noise coming from the far left bunkers. Let’s keep finding common ground Basecampers, shall we?

I just love talking with my guest today as you can probably tell. Enjoy the interview.

 

 

 

E241: Navigating Transgenderism with Special Guest

Pamela Garfield-Jaeger

 

E241 Dedication

 This episode is dedicated to all the parents out there. All the ones who got swept up in this Transgender insanity and all who are about to go through it. My heart goes out to you and I hope this episode and the resources mentioned assist you in finding a healthy and sane path for your young person and your family. May God Bless you all.

 E241 Introduction 

Today’s topic is a good one……navigating the Transgender minefield as a parent who may not have an inkling about what the so called “authorities” have in mind for your kids.

I like what Dr. Miriam Grossman said when she wrote “I want the following truths- recognized by everyone on the planet aside from gender studies professors and grad students until about 2 weeks ago- do be acknowledged. That sex is not assigned at birth, it’s established at conception.” AHO.

There is a movement afoot that tells your kids (and expects everyone, adults and children alike, to meekly follow) that whenever a boy SAYS they are a girl then the ARE a girl. Whenever a girl SAYS she’s a boy, then she IS a boy.

Basecampers, they are coming for your kids. Are you awake yet? There is a cult-like crusade that targets them 24/7.

Let’s be clear. To indoctrinate children and young adults with falsehoods and drive a wedge between them and their loving parents is evil. To encourage them on a path of that leads to harm is evil. To describe it all as a journey to authenticity and to entice children with glitter and rainbows is evil.

To echo last weeks sentiments with Dr. Mark McDonald, child psychiatrist extraordinaire. Schools cannot be trusted. They are a major site of indoctrination for the Transgender ideology.

And before we get to today‘s excellent interview, I wanted to read you a quote by the great author JK Rowling, who has been a very vocal critic to all this insanity. She said “I don’t believe that even a 14 year-old can truly understand what the loss of fertility is. At 14 I would have said that I don’t want children but motherhood has been the most joyful, wonderful thing in my life.”

She goes on to say that the best cure for gender dysphoria is the let children go through puberty. I couldn’t agree more. And now, onto our sponsor and our guest.
