Sons of Liberty Radio with Bradlee Dean
Is America Being Torn in Pieces? Third World Comparisons, Zionist Politicians, and Divine Judgment
Broadcasting solo on Sons of Liberty Radio, Bradlee Dean argues that America itself, not any foreign dictator, is tearing the country apart, playing clips of Nancy Mace, Carrie Prejean and an angry driver on gas prices while taking calls from Ken in West Virginia and a caller who calls herself Mrs. Sears-B.
A Pre-Recorded List Of Grievances
Before the live broadcast begins, Bradlee Dean airs a pre-recorded monologue built from a string of rhetorical questions asking whether a "Third World dictator" is really behind the nation's troubles. He walks through the Patriot Act, which he says was pushed through unread at 3:45 in the morning, the Department of Homeland Security, the Transportation Security Administration, and lawsuits filed against border-state governors, arguing each is the work of Americans, not a foreign power. He cites a figure of 179,027 released illegal felons, warns of efforts to redefine marriage and strip gun rights, and claims Obamacare violates Article 1, Section 8 of the Constitution. Dean adds Common Core and international education standards to his list, along with an estimated 55 to 60 million abortions performed in America. Quoting reformer John Calvin on wicked rulers as a sign of divine judgment, he closes the taped segment insisting Americans, not any dictator abroad, are responsible for the corruption they have tolerated.
Christian Nation Claims And A Muslim Officer
Live on the air, Dean greets "friends as well as a few enemies" and argues America was founded as a Christian nation, citing Chief Justice James Kent, the Mayflower Compact, four references to God in the Declaration of Independence, and the Constitution's dating "in the year of our Lord 1787." He plays a short clip of a Muslim police officer speaking Arabic in Minneapolis-Saint Paul, calling her garb proof she has come "to conquer, not assimilate," and links her hiring to Governor Tim Walz, Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, and Keith Ellison, all three of whom he brands treasonous. Dean cites a Somali American Police Association post congratulating a Lieutenant Abdul Qadir on his promotion as further evidence Muslims are being deliberately installed rather than voted into government. He argues modern-day Israel, which he says the Rothschild family funded, is a "synagogue of Satan" that uses Muslim immigrants as mercenary "brooms" to sweep away opposition, tracing the pattern to war-torn nations he calls cursed.
Nancy Mace, Carrie Prejean, And Zionist Money
After a break, Dean opens the phone lines and plays a Lindell TV panel segment in which Congresswoman Nancy Mace tells a news anchor that the Department of Justice and Department of Homeland Security have confirmed Ilhan Omar committed immigration fraud, yet Republicans, not Democrats, killed the oversight investigation into her. Dean seizes on that admission as proof his own claim, that the "Left" is simply "the fruit of" a Right that failed to govern rightly, has been correct for years. He then plays a second clip in which panelist Carrie Prejean confronts Mace over the roughly $138,000 she has taken from AIPAC, pressing her to call Israel's actions in Gaza a genocide while Mace counters by asking about Christians killed in Syria. Dean interjects that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is not actually Jewish but Polish, born Mileikowsky, and says the same is true of earlier Israeli leaders, framing modern Israel's government as compromised and its supporters as extortionists.
Church, State, And A West Virginia Caller
Dean turns to a viewer's posted parable comparing church and government to two lanes that government has invaded unopposed, using it to argue there is no true separation of church and state, since Americans, not politicians, are the government under God. He credits the wall-of-separation idea to a letter Thomas Jefferson wrote in 1802 and to the American Civil Liberties Union, whose founder he says declared the organization's end goal to be communism. Quoting Constitution signer James Wilson, that "Christianity and law are twin sisters," Dean insists every nation is effectively a theocracy under God's sovereignty. Caller Ken from West Virginia phones in to back Dean up, reading through a list, sourced to author Micaiah Freeman, of ten Israeli prime ministers' original names and birthplaces, including Ben-Gurion born Grün in Poland and Golda Meir born Mabovitch in Ukraine. Dean adds that the CIA was founded in 1947, the Mossad in 1948, and that atheist Theodor Herzl first proposed the Zionist project in 1897, before the call cuts out.
Diesel Prices And A Nation Torn In Pieces
Dean plays a clip of a man saying he loves his country but hates his government, then argues the sentiment is self-contradictory since Americans are the government they claim to hate. The same clip shifts to record-high diesel and gas prices, over seven dollars a gallon in the man's town of Searcy, and to the toll of American wars on children overseas; Dean answers that both the deficit and the bloodshed are collective judgment for tolerated sin, not something Americans can blame on leaders alone. Naming the episode's theme directly, he says America is "being torn in pieces" and reads at length from Psalm 50, Proverbs 1, and Proverbs 16:6, framing the passages as God warning that those who ignore correction will be mocked in their calamity. He calls it hypocrisy that American churches send missionaries to preach abroad while allowing abortion at home, saying the nation's suffering is the Lord "repaying us to our face."
Mrs. Sears-B And Contending For The Faith
A caller identifying herself as Mrs. Sears-B tells Dean she returned to church after a 2012 health diagnosis and became "a prayer warrior," then explains she is the one who submitted the church-and-state parable in the show's live chat. She laments that churches once sent people into the streets to be "the voice of their congregation" and no longer do, adding that only repentance and the Holy Spirit, not human perfection, can restore what she calls a lost sense of normal. Dean agrees, calling it further proof of God's judgment on the country. He closes the broadcast reflecting on a caller named John who twice had the chance to speak but never did, and defends on-air disagreement as biblical "contending for the faith," comparing it to Paul, Peter, Silas, and Barnabas, and recalling that debaters once argued at the top of their lungs from special chairs he says he still owns two of, before signing off with the show's web addresses.
