All right, so Ally Beth Stucky decided to step up to her pulpit and shame all Christians who are critical of Erica Kirk. And I've got one clip that I'm going to show you from this sermon that she delivered that I just cannot let go. I can't let it go. This is a subject that really gets me going. How can you be a Christian and treat a grieving widow this way? How can you be a Christian and support what Candace Owens is doing? Well, I'm going to explain to you exactly how here in a minute. We're going to get to that. It's an important subject given its intent to silence critics, to shame, and deflect away from the truth. So, it's important to address.
However, while all of you, and I'm not saying that you were, but while you were caught up with that UFO file released today that contained all of this holy crap bombshell information about dots and orbs that the Department of War thinks it is time for you to see. It looks like nothing they publish reveals any evidence whatsoever of any other life forms. It's a smoke screen. It's a distraction. It's a carrot for the donkeys. When something like this comes up, it's important for discerners of truth to look around the world and see what is happening. See what moves are actually being made by big players that might not be getting the attention that it deserves.
Well, there is something potentially massive going on in the world that no one in the United States media seems to be talking about. There is a multi-country destabilizing and desired regime change effort going on in Latin America right now involving, guess who? The United States and our greatest ally, Israel. In fact, like President Trump was lobbied by Israel, specifically BB Netanyahu and the head of Mossad, David Barnea, to enter into a regime change war in Iran. Israel is behind this regime change operation through Honduras and Argentina to destabilize mainly Colombia and Mexico. And you're about to see why. So you thought that the Israel lobby was only meddling in Thomas Massie and Kentucky in that election and in the American government? Widen your horizons, you guys.
I'm going to take you through the details of what is allegedly, allegedly going on, and then we'll get into Ali Beth. I'm Zach Costello. Did you guys bring out your Spanish today? There's subtitles on there, but what you just heard in that audio, or I'm sorry, who you just heard in that audio, as you can see right there, Juan Orlando Hernandez. Okay, this is the former president of Honduras from 2014 to 2022. In 2024, a US federal court convicted Hernandez of trafficking tons of cocaine into the United States and sentenced him to 45 years in prison. Donald Trump pardoned Hernandez in December of 2025 for the reason, citing persecution and injustice. This is why he was pardoned.
That audio that you just heard is one of 37 leaked WhatsApp, Signal, and Telegram recordings published by the media outlet Canal Red, indicating that an Israeli-backed lobbying effort helped secure this pardon of Hernandez by Trump. BB Netanyahu is named in these recordings as having everything to do with Hernandez's release and as a financial contributor to the pardon through Israeli-connected donors. Another recording, Hernandez claims that the money tied to his release, to his pardon, came from "a group of rabbis and people who supported Israel." These recordings have been forensically authenticated as non-AI generated by Fexia Voice Inspector. And what they indicate is that Hernandez's pardon was not an act of justice by President Trump, but a geopolitical transaction financed through Israeli channels, brokered by Trump adviser Roger Stone, and tied to a broader plan of destabilizing anti-Israel governments of Colombia and Mexico through Honduras and then restore Honduras as a strategic client state for the United States and Israeli interests.
The recordings allege the creation of a US-based digital journalism unit, described as a fake Latin American news site designed to generate and distribute disinformation targeting the governments of Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum and Colombian President Gustavo Petro. In Hernandez's own words from one of the recordings, he says, "We're going to set up a presidential cell from here from the United States, an information hub, so they can't track us there in Honduras. It's going to be like a Latin American news site." The operation was described as financed through a combination of Honduran public funds, Javier Milei, and the Argentine government, and then Israeli-connected donors. The total alleged funding exceeded $500,000.
The recordings contain material going well beyond political speech. Hernandez is heard pressuring and referencing threats of prison or death against any electoral officials who oppose irregularities in Honduras's recent election. He is heard explicitly invoking Trump's name as a model. Hernandez said, "In Honduras, we need strength. We need logistics. We need blood. If you want to keep people controlled, you need to oppress them, squeeze them, counter violence by generating violence. It's what President Trump says." That's what Hernandez said in one of these recordings.
According to the recordings, the arrangement involved trading the pardon for a package of concessions, concessions, excuse me, in Honduras. The audios reference plans for new military bases and expanded access for foreign partners, alongside the expansion of semi-autonomous zones for employment and economic development, and major AI and infrastructure context tied to US-linked companies, excuse me, AI and infrastructure contracts that are tied to US-linked companies. One of these zones for economic and employment development is called Prospera and has drawn investment from Peter Thiel and Marc Andreessen, who are both major Trump and Israeli backers. You guys see what the big players are up to right here.
Finally, and this is important, why would Israel care about what's going on in Latin America? Why would BB Netanyahu and the Israeli lobby influence Trump to pardon Hernandez and stoke regime change to get him into power, and then also set up disinformation campaigns to ferment unrest in Colombia and Mexico? You guys, BB Netanyahu visited Latin America four times between 2017 and 2019. He used a combination of technology exports, defense deals, and alignment with right-wing populist leaders to build a Latin American diplomatic bloc which is supportive of Israel at the United Nations. However, in 2025, Israel faced a devastating reversal of this support. The Gaza war triggered a wave of diplomatic ruptures with Latin American left-wing governments. Colombia under Petro severed diplomatic relations with Israel in May of 2024. They canceled a free speech trade agreement and expelled all Israeli diplomats. Mexico's president Sheinbaum was among the most vocal international critics of Israeli military conduct in Gaza. Now, both governments became priority targets in these Honduras Gate recordings. That's what this is being called, Honduras Gate. The alleged operation thus has a specific, documentable Israeli foreign policy objective that is to destabilize and delegitimize the Petro and Sheinbaum governments, not merely as ideological opponents, but as the two most consequential Latin American voices challenging Israeli conduct on the world stage. So, as you can see, Thomas Massie is just a micro example of who the Israel lobby is after. And I'm going to finish this with allegedly. Allegedly. Hernandez has publicly dismissed the recordings as fabricated. He's calling them a part of a campaign of disinformation by the radical left, and he's insisting that the voice in the audios are not his. This is something that we all need to be paying attention to.
Now, before we get to Ali Beth Stucky and Erica Kirk, we're going to take a brief break from today's sponsor, which is Our Native Path Krill Oil. It's brought to you by Native Path Antarctic Krill Oil. 73 miles off the coast of Antarctica, in waters so clean they're virtually untouched by human pollution, lives a tiny organism that researchers believe may be one of the most powerful anti-inflammatory nutrients ever discovered. It's called krill. And today's sponsor has figured out how to get it to your door. If you have been taking fish oil for heart, joint, or memory support, here's something you need to know. Research shows fish oil is 50% less absorbable than krill oil because fish oil's omega-3s are in triglyceride form, while krill's are in phospholipid form, which is the same format your cell walls are made of. That means krill oil gets into your cells immediately. In head-to-head studies, krill oil outperformed fish oil at improving cholesterol, reducing inflammation, and easing joint pain, often at lower doses. Native Path Antarctic Krill Oil is sourced from pristine Antarctic waters, contains the powerful antioxidant astaxanthin, and comes in a soft gel. No fishy burps. Trust me, I know, and I can't stand them. And my wife is happier that I'm taking krill. Learn more and grab your supply at getnativepath.com/zach.

Okay. Ali Beth Stucky is a woman who chomps at the bit to attack and criticize the Catholic Church, the Pope. Some might argue that this attitude and behavior is a soul sickness and a risky gamble with her soul. I certainly do. And I use these terms because this is precisely what she says here about anyone who is critical of Erica Kirk, as she issues this stern warning to Christians. I want you guys to take a listen to this.
"Fine with that. We can ask questions and be a critical thinker. But if you cannot do that without relentlessly and mercilessly mocking Erica Kirk, then there you've got a soul sickness, man. Like there is something deep and dark going on there. You cannot, as a Christian, because a lot of these people on the so-called right who are doing this call themselves Christians, you cannot stand before the God of the universe with a clear conscience and know that your life is dedicated to your entertainment, your income, whatever, is dedicated to mocking a widow. Like, you just, it's just not possible. And so if you do feel good about that and you're like, 'Well, I don't really feel any conviction. I think that this is fine.' Like, that's not an indication that what you're doing is okay. That's an indication that you are callous. That you worship the god of self. You worship the god of money. You worship the god of entertainment. You worship the god of sensationalism, not the god of scripture. Okay? That's what's going on. All of us in different times in our lives have had times of trying to justify sin and to assuage conviction. Okay? But because God is good, if you have the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit hounds you. And it's like, well, you keep wanting to do this, but I'm not going to let you feel good about this. You're going to keep feeling bad about this until you repent. Okay? But if you don't have the Holy Spirit, then you can keep feeling good about really awful things for a long time. And if you keep feeling good about and finding joy in the mockery of a widow, that is an indication of the absence of the Holy Spirit in your life."
Ali needs to clear her nose before she speaks on her podcast. But this is extremely frustrating for me to listen to. It's extremely frustrating because two things can be true at once. Erica Kirk is a widow. Erica Kirk is a widow. That is a fact. Her and Charlie were married. Charlie died. Erica Kirk is a widow. And Erica Kirk and Turning Point USA, since she is now the CEO of that organization, are of a certain agenda and influence that certainly not everybody has to agree with. It is absolutely ridiculous to blanket call everyone evil, demonic, accuse of incitement, and condemn as anti-Christian those who oppose Erica Kirk and her behavior. And I'm sorry, when a comedian mocks a public figure, welcome to the non-exclusive club. What public figure who goes out there, and I mean, I like comedy. I'm a fan of comedy. Drew Barrymore mocked Erica Kirk. Okay, guys, there's a Shane Gillis does the President Trump impression. I mean, I can't think of a president in recent memory. All of these different comedians, they mock the different presidents that we have. When you are a public figure, when you're a, especially a public figure of massive influence that everybody is talking about right now, this is just what comes along with it. This is what comes along with it.
We have to make this clear. Erica Kirk and Turning Point USA are of a certain agenda in the arena of politics and religion. Yes, Erica Kirk is of a certain agenda in the arena of politics and religion. Were they of an agenda when Charlie Kirk led the organization also? Yes. But a major fallout from the Charlie Kirk assassination was the exposure of both the political and religious agenda of Turning Point USA. Charlie Kirk was a part of that original MAGA. We talked about this yesterday. Since YouTube didn't cooperate very much with my video, I'll remind you of what that is. But Charlie Kirk was incredibly helpful to getting President Trump elected through an innovative campaign strategy which worked around the mainstream media to win over young people throughout America with alternative media. And if you don't remember, the original MAGA agenda included things like no more foreign wars, Doge, Make America Healthy Again, holding the deep state accountable, dismantling the military-industrial complex, stopping illegal immigration, exposing the Epstein files. It was anti-censorship. It was pro-First Amendment. Get all of this government spending and debt and fraud, waste, and abuse under control. It was America First. It was America First. And Charlie Kirk himself was extremely outspoken about the release of the Epstein files, Doge, illegal immigration. He was an advocate, obviously, for free speech. And he was especially growing increasingly frustrated with neocon warmongers in our own government. He called them out constantly by name and he stood very firm against American continual involvement in all foreign wars, but especially Middle Eastern wars. Charlie Kirk appreciated Israel as a place, but he too questioned the neocon government under BB Netanyahu. He fought hard against a regime change war in Iran. And this is all well-documented. This became a threat to what is being described as the Zionist agenda. That which supports Israel beyond what is prudent American foreign policy interests because of entangled religious beliefs. Zionists, those who believe that Israel is a God-ordained and protected nation. A Zionist is one who believes that the current nation-state of Israel is the biblical Israel. They did not like where Charlie was going with these shifting views, and that includes his friends in the media and all of his Zionist donors. TPUSA had been built and funded by Zionists. Charlie was formed as a Christian Zionist and he was never supposed to turn, but he started hanging out with Tucker Carlson a little too much. Candace Owens, I'm sure, had a little bit of influence, too. Charlie became a problem because he and his powerful organization, if they were to shift from the Zionist agenda, actually had the major influential power amongst young people to drive a wedge between the United States and Israel. If Israel has an existential requirement to win the information war, as BB Netanyahu is quoted in saying, as we've been talking about, he considers this the eighth front war. This information war to win over young people on behalf of Israel and America. Well, then Turning Point USA under Charlie Kirk, under a shifting Charlie Kirk, posed a major problem to that. Charlie is now gone. And this is where Erica Kirk and the current Turning Point USA now comes into play, and the agenda they now advocate for. And Turning Point USA Faith is a big part of this. It's a big part of this.
And what we have seen, what we have seen is President Trump and MAGA, the original MAGA, shift away from the many promises that they made to the American people that helped them win the election. Many of these issues that Charlie Kirk himself thought important, like no Middle Eastern wars, the Epstein files, free speech, military-industrial complex, Doge, and government spending, have not been delivered on by this Trump administration. However, we have seen the Erica Kirk-led Turning Point USA just blindly follow these shifts away from the promises. They are simply just an operative and a mouthpiece for a MAGA that is not the same as it told us it was. MAGA has aligned with that Zionist lobby and has gone against the advice that Charlie Kirk was giving them in the last months of his life as it relates to Israel and its public image in the United States. He warned President Trump and the administration that listening to what people like Mark Levin, Ben Shapiro, Laura Loomer, Lindsey Graham, Ted Cruz, he said it would result in an increased animosity against Israel and even produce a rise in anti-Semitism. And he was right. He was right. Look at the environment we are now living in as Trump has been completely isolated in an echo chamber of Zionists who are getting their way around the world. And instead of being a force or a voice of reason against that agenda, like Charlie Kirk was, Erica Kirk certainly is not. Turning Point USA certainly is not. And they've just become a part of that echo chamber. Turning Point USA serves now as the political operative for the neocon agenda. Turning Point USA Faith serves as the religious operative for Christian Zionism. And of course, that's okay with someone like Ali Beth Stucky, who's an open Christian Zionist. So, of course, she supports what Erica Kirk and Turning Point USA are doing.
Where things have been questionable, have gotten questionable, have always been questionable for me regarding Erica Kirk is why, knowing the amount of pressure and heat that Charlie Kirk was under and getting from the Zionist lobby, those Zionist donors, she knew he was getting all of that pressure and bullying and heat from them. But she has continued Turning Point USA along this path. Erica was there at the Hamptons intervention. She was there when BB Netanyahu called Charlie. She has his phone with all of the text messages. If Charlie was venting to Megan Kelly, Tucker Carlson, and others, surely Erica must have known how he was being treated and what he was going through. But she has continued to take the organization in the direction that it seems like Charlie was trying to pry it away from in the last year of his life. I mean, look, maybe Erica is just a Christian Zionist and this is the direction that she believes Turning Point USA must go. Fine. Fine. But people can certainly oppose that. People can certainly oppose that without being evil or un-Christian. The comedians are going to do what they're going to do. But also too, when you have somebody in this position now who has inserted herself into this position and has behaved the way that she has behaved, you know, she comes out in a press conference wearing all black, dressed all in black. It's, it's, it's just kind of weird. It's kind of weird. She's at the White House Correspondents' Dinner. You know, crazy situation happens, staged or not staged, regardless, she leaves. She leaves the room crying, saying, "I just want to go home." It's like, we have been saying the whole time like, "Why are you even there?" I have a really hard time reconciling why Erica Kirk would be taking Turning Point USA in the direction that she has decided to take it in, or those who are handling or controlling her have decided to take it in, given what we know documented about what Charlie thought and what and the direction that he wanted to taken in at the end of his life.
I believe the position that Erica Kirk is in and her position of influence as a public figure, it's important to me. It's important to me what she stands for and the influence that she and this organization have because they have so much reach. They have so much reach to young people, high school students and college students, and to Christians throughout America. And now, finally, to speak for one second on the widow part of all of this, because I just talked a lot about the political, the cultural, the religious influence that certainly is open to criticism by Christians, by Christians. But let's speak to the widow part. Because people like Ali Beth Stucky, they always want to be picky-choosy about what scripture verses to include or exclude to fit their agenda. We hear a lot, "We as Christians are called to support the widow." That comes from 1 Timothy chapter 5, which is a section called "Rules for Widows," which everybody loves to cite when they say that. I want to read to you guys the entire thing. The entire thing, unredacted, and this will serve as our scripture passage for the day as well. Pay close attention.
1 Timothy chapter 5, starting at verse three: "Honor widows who are truly widows. But if a widow has children or grandchildren, let these first learn to perform their religious duty to their own family and to make recompense to their parents. For this is pleasing to God. The real widow who is all alone has set her hope on God and continues in supplications and prayers night and day. But the one who is self-indulgent is dead while she lives. Command this so that they may be irreproachable. And whoever does not provide for relatives and especially family members has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever. Let a widow be enrolled if she is not less than 60 years old, married only once, with a reputation for good works, namely that she has raised children, practiced hospitality, washed the feet of the holy ones, helped those in distress, involved herself in every good work. But exclude younger widows. For when their sensuality exchanges them from Christ, they want to marry and will incur condemnation for breaking their first pledge. And furthermore, they learn to be idlers, going from house to house, campus to campus. Doesn't say that. And not only idlers but gossips and busybodies as well, talking about things that ought not to be mentioned. So I would like younger widows to marry, have children, and manage a home so as to give the adversary no pretext for maligning us. For some have already been turned away to follow Satan. If any woman believer has widowed relatives, she must assist them. The church is not to be burdened so that it will be able to help those who are truly widows."
Being a widow does not give you a pass to behave in any way that you see fit and avoid all criticism of that behavior. What Paul is describing here are widows that have turned away to follow Satan. And surely those widows are not free from rebuke. But he talks about helping those widows who are truly widows. And he encourages the young widows even to remarry and take care of their children so that they don't become idlers going from house to house, or as I said, campus to campus busybodies talking about things that ought not to be mentioned. And Paul finally makes it clear that the widow who is self-indulgent after her own interest is dead while she lives.
I've been arguing for a while that all of those who are encouraging Erica Kirk in her new boss babe role are, in fact, the ones that are unloving. That would be going against what God wants for Erica Kirk. You bring it back up. When Erica Kirk was leaving the White House Correspondents' Dinner crying, saying, "I want to go home." Mine, and I know a lot of you, the first thought was precisely that is where you should be. At home. Your young children just lost their father, and they need their mother with them. Not with a nanny, not with a babysitter, not with a grandmother. Their mother. Erica Kirk has a vocation, and telling her that she is more fit for that vocation is, in my opinion, more loving and more Christian and more truthful than everything else she is getting from those around her. And the last thing I'll say is this, because Charlie Kirk was very clear about what he thought the role of a mother, especially of young children, should be. He believed it most fulfilling and most meaningful for a woman's life to have be at home and raise her children. He was very outspoken about that. And I believe Charlie was a good Christian, and he was also very smart. He was also very prudent. I have a whole infrastructure set up so that if something happens to me, my wife is fully taken care of so that she can execute her vocation to the best of her ability without me here. I have the infrastructure set up so that she is financially taken care of and she does not have to then insert herself into my role to be able to provide for our family. I would be upset if, after having said all of that up, doing what I need to do to provide for her, even if in the event that something happened to me, if she were to then turn around and say, "Oh, I'm not going to I'm not going to stay at home with them. I'm not going to make sure there is. I'm going to go out into the workforce to to get mine. To get mine, ultimately, because that's what this is about. That is what this is about in the name of carrying on Charlie's legacy."
It's hard to not think, and Ali Beth says, "Oh, this is so easy." If it's easy for you, the Holy Spirit's not working within you. It's hard for me to not think that Erica wants this for herself. I don't want to think that. I don't want to think that. But when I look and I see reality, it's, it's, it's fair to ask the question. It's fair to ask the question, given the history and then given the behavior that we see now. But as a man, I see it also too as an insult to Charlie, as an insult to to how Charlie very clearly set her up for success in the event that something was happening to him. And he seemed to, based on his own and everybody around him at Turning Point USA, they seem to talk about him dying all the time. So, so what gives?
Let's finish up with some comments. Intuition Jen: "Ali Beth, enough of the spiritual gaslighting. She does that a lot and she has been really annoying me for a while now. She really has been." Jen, thanks so much for the generous super chat. It is interesting that the Zio cause is trying to destroy predominantly Catholic countries. I know through many personal experiences that evangelical Zio pastors teach Catholics are a cult, not Christians. Always go back to our greatest ally. It's a very good and astute observation there. Yeah. I mean, these Latin American countries have some of the, I mean, this is some of the highest population of Catholics is anywhere throughout the world. It's a very good point. It's a very good point. And there's nothing better, there is nothing better for Zionism than to have lukewarm, purposeless, missionless, non-Zionist churches, non-Zionist Christians, right? So, anything that they can do to cut off the mission, cut off the zeal, cut off the intensity for the faith, they will do. They will do. Yeah. That's a, that's a very interesting point that I didn't make throughout the rest of the show. You're 100% right. It is too an attack on Catholic countries. 1.8 billion Catholics on the planet. Good luck taking us out. Yeah. No, we're not going anywhere. That's for sure. We're not going anywhere. That's for sure. Thank you, Jen. Love you, Zach. And God bless you. I love you guys too. And God bless you all as well. Thank you so much. Mystic: "Way to go, Max. Using God's word. Well done, Zach." Thank you. Thank you, Mystic. "No matter how I tweak my super chat, it won't send. There was no bad words in it. Was asking about the rainbow event at the Dead Sea site. What Ben S and the Christian Z think about it." Dissonance. I think I saw a news clip of that. Um, but yeah, you're 100% right. You're 100% right because as I said, it, it, the acceptable society and structure that is set up is one that can be secular and one that just can be religiously lukewarm. I mean, kosher is the best way to say it. Like there's nothing better than like, it, it, kosher, a kosher church, a kosher society, one that's lukewarm, one where individuals are not focused, they're distracted. Um, the citizenry just stays stupid, you know, we, we pay attention and look at UFO distractions rather than the actual important events that are going on around the. And you know, I, I am a little concerned. I, I am definitely concerned. I mean, given the things that we've been talking about here the past couple weeks. Um, I've definitely seen some, some impact to the numbers. And now you're telling me that you can't even write stuff in the chat given certain terms and certain words. Ah, my goodness. My goodness. Mystic gifting 10 Zach Costello memberships. Thank you so much. I really appreciate that. Always be true. Member show mine expires in 14 days. No need to worry. No need to worry. We are going to do a member show on Monday. So we'll do a member-only show on Monday. That'll be fun. So coming off the weekend, we'll do a member-only show. All right. So if you guys are not members, make sure you get a membership so you can join us. Um, I'm gonna have stuff prepared. We'll, we'll come off the weekend and we'll talk about some things. But, um, we'll do it also as Q&A. Like, if you guys want to throw stuff in there and and ask me anything, uh, that's going to be fun. So, let's do it. But, we'll just hang out together on Monday for a member-only show. Make sure you sign up for one of those memberships.
All right, guys. That's going to be it for today. I hope you all have a great Friday. Hope you all have a great weekend. I love you all and I will see you all on Monday. I'm Zach Costello.
