Rick Green [00:00:07] Welcome to the intersection of faith and culture. It's The WallBuilders Show, taking on the hot topics of the day from a biblical, historical, and constitutional perspective. Appreciate you joining us today. I'm Rick Green with David and Tim Barton. You can learn more about us at our website, wallbuilders.com. That's where you get all the cool tools and things that will equip you and inspire you and literally give you what you need to be the catalyst for a restoration of biblical values and constitutional principles right there in your neighborhood. Begins in your home with your family and in your neighborhood, your church. But you can do that we've got Biblical Citizenship classes We've got all kinds of things available for you there at wallbuilders.com check that out. And then if you got a pastor that has not been on one of our Washington DC Pastors Briefings you need to send them. I think there might be a couple of spots left for the April tour go to the website and find out wallbuilders.com click on events and then we've got one coming up in the fall. Then there's a ton of things happening this summer. And so, you just got to go to website from the youth leadership to the teachers training to all kinds check that out there. And then while we're talking about the summer, PatriotAcademy.com, if you want to send a young person to one of our leadership congresses around the nation. We do those in seven different states now. We have young people, 16 to 25, that join us in a state capital for three or four days in a state capitol somewhere around the country. And then we have our big national leadership Congress at the Patriot Academy campus in our legislative hall. That's a mockup of the Texas Capitol. And we do a full legislative simulation there. So, backing up that that means you have options for young people starting in June to go to a state capital in Florida. We have one in Delaware. We do one in Indiana, Colorado, Idaho, Texas, and I think we're not going to Arizona this year, but we'll be back next year, Lord willing. So, you can pick, find all those dates. They're in June and July and send your young person there. They're very inexpensive. It covers all of the tuition, the meals, their lodging, everything. And it's usually, you know, depending on which one you go to,300 to $500. So, 300 bucks, 500 bucks, covers all of the training, all of all of tuition, all of meals and the lodging. And it is a, it's an absolutely phenomenal experience. I have only had one student out of, I think we've got 7,000 now that have been through this. I've had one students tell me they wish they had not come. Let's just say they were definitely ultra-liberal, anti-biblical and not even sure what gender they were and I don't know how they got through our selection process because we usually prevent that .So anyway, I say that to say; it's almost a hundred percent that I can guarantee you that your young person in your life, high school, college, maybe law school, maybe they're you know closer to that 25 age range. Totally fine send them! And I promise you they're gonna learn speaking skills media skills, the legislative process, Constitution, biblical worldview, they're gonna get a crash course and all of that. And I promise you; they will be a better citizen as a result of it. They'll be a leader as a results of it and they may even decide to do more. They may decide to come spend a full year with us at the Patriot Institute. That's our one year program at the Patreon Academy campus. They live on site and they get an incredible grounding all year long in life skills and apologetics. They learn all the world religions and how to respond to all of them. They learn, you know, history and the Constitution and how to work campaigns and how to create their life plan and figure out what it is God's called them to do. I mean, all of that in a very in-depth way over the course of, I say a year, it starts in September, goes through May, and it's life-changing. This was our second year to do it. We're getting close to the graduation for these 20....we had 27 this year at the campus. We may do as many as a hundred this coming year. Especially if we have the scholarships. So, if you want to scholarship a student, go to PatriotAcademy.com and do that. That will allow us to get to that hundred number. We know we can get the students that we have that much demand, but we have to make sure we can raise enough money to make it possible for them. Because it's way less than college, by the way. I am shocked that people are paying 30, 40, 50, $60,000 a year for college. That just blows my mind. What a waste, honestly, for most college degrees. There's a few that might be worth that, very few. Anyway, ours is fifteen thousand dollars for the year and anyways, they get way more than what they're gonna get in college and they can get college credit while they're here if they want. But check that out. That's also a patriotacademy.com or you can go directly to patriotinstitute.com and learn more about what we're doing with our young people right now. It's really remarkable I mean, I'm getting to see the fruit of 30 years of doing this. You know the Bartons and the Greens started Patriot Academy together all the way back in the year 2000. And we would have never been able to do it if it hadn't been for the support of the Bartons. And we had 20 students that first year, it was very small. And then like 25 the next year, and then 35, and then 40, then 70, and 100. And now we'll train 400, 500 students this year this summer with all of the different ones we're doing across the country. But I was just giving a tour of the campus this morning and I was walking down the hallway and we have pictured these big blown up know, photography collages of each year of Patriot Academy. And there's pictures of people that when they were young came through and they're now in Congress or they're working at the White House or they are in state legislatures or they run in big businesses or all kinds of cool positions out there. And it just reminded me, this matters. This makes a huge difference for the future of the country and you can be a part of it. PatriotAcademy.com, go there today and send one of your young people. If you're over 25 and you're thinking, Rick, that's not fair, I wanna do one of those. Well, good news, you can. We have the Patriot Experience and it's your chance to come to the campus and for three days, you get to be a legislator and go through our entire legislative simulation, get all that same training we do for young people and maybe even do a handgun defense class. We have a lot of great firearms training as well. We do constitution coach training so you can learn to host those classes in your home and your church, which there's not much to it. You really just have to get people in the room, put on the coffee and cake and hit play. David Barton does all the hard work. So David and Tim both do a lot of the teaching in that class. We got Jeremy Boring, we got Rabbi Daniel Lappin, Kirk Cameron, I mean all these people. Charlie Kirk's in there teaching. I mean it's got a lot of great teaching in Biblical Citizenship in Modern America. And you can get that at wallbuilders.com today. If you want to be in the coach program and use that free coach dashboard with all kinds of great tools, go to patriotacademy.com to get that. And, you know, it's honestly, it's grown to, we're now at 35,000 constitution coaches out there. That's a pretty good start. We need about 100,000, and we put about two million people through the classes, that's a good start, but we need five million to go through these classes. And so you can be a part of all of that, go to PatriotAcademy.com today, go to wallbuilders.com, today, and get started on being the catalyst in your community for restoring these biblical values and constitutional principles. So, I just felt like I needed to kind of get us launched for the summer. That's what I'm trying to do here, is get you interested in some of these programs so that you start planning now and get your young people to these programs this summer. You come in for one of these adult programs that we have and, and, and start taking this serious. It's not enough just to listen. You've got to start taking action. John Hancock, father or of the president of the Continental Congress.,,,started to say Sam Adams father of American Revolution, but it's John Hancock president of Continental Congress, he said, I urge you by all that's dear, by all that's honorable by all the sacred, not only to pray, but to act, we all have that responsibility and that duty. So, if you're looking for some ways to act then go to patriotacademy.com and wallbuilders.com today. One more website and we'll go to break and then we'll come back with our special guest, the radio site for if you want to catch up on radio programs or you want to share links to the program, the easiest way to do that is wallbuilders.show, wallbuilders.show and just list all the programs from the last few weeks and months and you can share those with your friends and family and catch up on any that you might've missed. Okay, before we go to a break, let me tell you who our guest is going to be. Jaco Booyens has been with us several times. He's spoken at our legislators conference several times, I mentioned yesterday that we might, share his Pro-Family Legislators Conference presentation from this year that we might share that soon in the coming weeks. Well, decided to go ahead and do it today. Just, it's just got me too excited for you to hear from Jaco again. As I mentioned before, he's been several times to our convention, been on the radio program several times, does an incredible work. I met Jaco, actually we were sitting next to each other at a state board of education hearing in Texas. Didn't know each other from Adam, didn't recognize each other. And I think he testified first and came back. And when he sat down, I said, man, we need to know each other. I loved everything you said. And then I got up, testified, came back, he said, Man, we need to each other, I loved everything you said, so we've been friends ever since, but Jaco is just a great American, great Patriot, and I think what he shared with the legislators, you're going to want to hear. And we do this as often as we can. As I mentioned yesterday, we share when these speakers come and share with the legislatures, we want to get the two for, we want to, get a double whammy, double portion, double, double purpose in that presentation and share it with you, our WallBuilders listeners, when we can. All of the presentations, we can't do that. Some of them are strategic and closed door meeting kind of things. But what Jaco shared, we want to share with you. So we're going to take a break. We'll be back. Jaco Booyens will be our special guest speaking at the Pro Family Legislators Conference. You are listening to the WallBuilders Show. 

Rick Green [00:10:32] Welcome back to The WallBuilders Show. Let's jump in with Jaco Booyens at the Pro-Family Legislators Conference. 

Jaco Booyens [00:10:36] Every year I come here, you're so on my heart because we can't do what we do without you. You are the ground zero boots on the ground, the ones that move policy, move legislation in your state. Our fight against human trafficking is a local fight. You unfortunately cannot legislate morality. You cannot win this fight from the Oval Office. I was there yesterday, huge honor to be with the President and the First Lady as he signed Foster the Future, a program we worked on, our organization with the First Lady, but you cannot win human trafficking from the White House. There's air cover, but at some point, it comes down to the state level. And it's in your hands. A couple of things I want to highlight. What is coming down the road, particularly what's coming to your state because of the soccer World Cup. What's going to stay behind after the soccer World Cup leaves? Trafficking comes in, soccer leaves, trafficking stays. Criminal element moves into your state, the games leave, it stays. And we are under-equipped, under-informed for what is coming. I sit on an international council for FIFA and we are behind the eight ball. So a couple of things, 2026 is gonna be a huge year in combating human trafficking. In your state one of your toughest fights you will face in the future, in this administration, not because of this administration, but because they're fighting against the administration by breaking the family. The plan right now is break the family, get Catholic against Christian, drive anti-Semitism, fracture the base, and it's all family, family. Whenever you go after the family children get exploited, period. Any place in the world, when you destabilize the family trafficking explodes. Your fight is going to be family court. You're going to have a massive battle on your hands in '26, '27 in family court. We have to look at current policy in family courts. We have shore it up. There's gigantic gaps. It's like Swiss cheese. How predators are moving through the family court system. Judges are inept. They don't understand trafficking. They don't understand how to actually legislate and prosecute the amazing laws you have on your books. Another big fight you're going to fight is getting prosecutions. We are proposing to the US Senate and House and Senate, Congress the first of its kind gigantic project, first of its kind Article 3, Constitutional Human Trafficking Court. And it is getting incredible support. We looked at the last 30, 40 years and asked ourselves, why is it that your states have incredible laws in the books to combat human trafficking, but on average we find now that you only convict at 16%. At a state level, sex crimes against children is convicted at a rate of 16%. At the federal level, it's 92%. Guess how many human trafficking cases without convictions at the federal level in 2023 and 2024 total with tens of thousands of women and children trafficked every day. What do you think the number is? 182. Total. So, of 182 cases that went to court as a human trafficking case, they get the conviction, but it's just 182. At the state level, 16%. We drafted a white paper. We socialized it. We've now gone through the Senate Judiciary, the House Judiciary. There's bipartisan support because it's now self-evident. We do not prosecute this crime because we do not take the crime into the court of law as human trafficking. It gets pled down. When you ask, why does it get pled down? The judges are telling the prosecutors, do not bring this case as a human trafficking case. And you ask the judge, why? And he says, I get one of these cases every three years on a lottery system. I don't know what to do with a 16-year-old that's the victim and the oppressor, that's self-exploiting, that's distributing CSAM, that's a felon whose dad was her trafficker and now she's recruiting other 16- year-olds. The judges running for the hills. So, if we do not do what we did in the 70s with bankruptcy court, where the judges say, we don't know bankruptcy. Let's get a special bankruptcy court. Article III court or FISA court. If we do no specialize, the tremendous efforts you do every year to pass laws to shore up the vulnerability and the innocence of children will count for nothing. Unless we prosecute and convict, according to the laws that you passed. If in Texas it says if you abuse a child that's 16 and under or 17 and under, you're gonna get 30 to life, we've had one of those cases. 254 counties in Texas, we've only prosecuted sex trafficking of children in 10. We've got the best laws in the world in Texas against human trafficking. If you do not prosecute it, that law is toilet paper. It doesn't matter. The criminals know this. So, it's no longer just let's make better laws. It's what are we going to do to actually make the law count? What do we do with law enforcement where the numbers are so low that Houston is 5,000 officers short, Dallas is 3,100 officers short. What do you do with a state where there's one individual in ICAC for a whole state? This fight has to be your fight in your state because it's gone digital. Glenn spoke of AI. Most of the victims we rescue today that are children, there is no trafficker. Law enforcement scratching their head, where's the trafficker? Where's the pimp? The pimp, the two bottom girls. So, where's Jeffrey? Where's Ghislaine Maxwell? Where's, where is the hierarchy? The hierarchy has been destroyed. The child's trafficking themselves through AI. They're literally making pornography on themselves because they've been coerced by a society that my body is the way to monetize myself. 

Rick Green [00:16:55] Sorry to interrupt, we've got to interrupt Jaco for just a minute, we're going to take a quick break. You're listening to The WallBuilders Show. 

Rick Green [00:18:06] Welcome back to The WallBuilders Show. We're gonna jump right back in with Jaco Booyens at the Pro Family Legislators Conference. 

Jaco Booyens [00:18:13] If you look at what's happening on college campuses, over 67% of all female college students tell you that they casually view or make porn on themselves. The fastest growing university in the United States is not an accredited university, but it's SBU, Sugar Baby University. Look it up. Over 3,000 girls at Texas A&M sell their bodies for sex on weekends to pay off student debt. They're so bold with this website that they literally have a ticker of how much student debt they've paid off by sugar daddies taking girls on a trip on a weekend to Paris or to the Super Bowl. So now there's no trafficker. Law enforcement is literally saying, wait a second, who's to blame? We must make the laws that you fought for. count So the judiciary has been left alone for decades in this argument, and it's time to shine a light on the judiciary. We must make your efforts count. You've done an incredible job. At a state level, at a federal level, Congress have codified the law. You've written laws that are the best in the world, model policy coming out of states for the world. We're going to talk about 4623 this afternoon. We're gonna talk about in Texas of all states where we take away sovereign immunity from superintendents, where we found over 2,000 cases of sex crimes against children that superintendents hid from law enforcement in Texas. We're making strides with law. The next season you're going into is working with the judiciary in your state and law enforcement to make sure when they arrest that the case is actually going to court as a human trafficking case and it's not played down as a man act. You saw with Sean Combs, I refuse to call him Diddy, his name is Sean Combs. They gave him RICO, they gave him force fraud coercion, and halfway through the case I spoke to the lead prosecutor and I said, you're going to drop all these charges before we go to court. They dropped RICO. They dropped human trafficking and they got him on the man act. Guy's getting 18 months. He's going to get an ankle bracelet. He's got to record an album, be a hero, maybe play the next Super Bowl three years from now. That's not America, you have worked too hard for decades now to fight for the innocence of children to not make it count in the court of law. It has to, you got to start talking to your judges and they're going to tell you they don't want these cases. So, when we identify a judge through this Article 3 court, that judge has a concurrent judgeship. He serves in his normal docket but he's also the federal judge. We're not federalizing a state crime. The prosecutor is cross designated. He can take a human trafficking case in front of a judge that's an expert in human trafficking. That'll cut the time of the prosecution and the conviction in half. That judge is also over the civil case where we start seeing civil remedies. That's when you're going to hit people. When a CEO of a Fortune 500 company gets convicted of sex trafficking, all of a sudden you take his yacht and his big screen TV and you take his stock and you start draining the accounts and it goes to restitution for victims and survivors. When it starts hurting, when the law is the law and they can't fall through loopholes. Because what's at stake here, in my closing, is the future of America. I say this all the time; a person that's sexually abused will not even think of a First Amendment or a Second Amendment or a Constitution or a Bill of Rights. It's not even in their framework. A child at 12, 13, 14 that's actually abused is not going to vote or will be easily coerced to yell "we are Hamas." But I also say this, and someone touched on it, so I must just mention it. We are not of the Abrahamic faith. There is one true God and there is an uprising of a Sharia law where they can, within the law, rape children. Let me just tell you, within their law, they can rape children. Go look at London. It's here, Texas is under siege and we're seeing it with children being abused under Sharia law. That's not America. God will ask us what we did with the innocent. You're doing an incredible job. I salute you. We cannot do it without you. Keep fighting, keep refining laws, but let's make laws count. God bless you. Thank you so much. 

Rick Green [00:23:06] Alright folks, that was Jaco Booyens speaking at the Pro Family Legislators Conference. We're going to take a quick break. We'll be right back. You're listening to The WallBuilders Show. 

Rick Green [00:25:19] Welcome back to The WallBuilders Show. Thanks for staying with us. Thanks to Jaco for sharing once again at the legislator’s conference. Also want to, as we're, you know, wrapping up the day in our last couple of minutes, I want to encourage you to get your legislator to the conference. Okay. This is easy to do. The conference is not expensive. You can even sponsor them. If they can't afford to go, your church can sponsor them, you can, you can help them get to the conference and, and it's important for them to do this. And I say that from experience as a legislator, there are times you feel like you're the only one. You get your Elijah moments where you're like, Lord, I'm the only one. And the Lord will say, no, there's 7,000 that have not bowed their knee of Baal, but sometimes he uses us to say that. And so, one of the ways that you can let your legislator hear that is to actually have them go to a Pro-Family Legislator's Conference where they find they're not alone. So be sure and share that with them. Let them know it happens in November. I can't remember the exact dates for this year, but if you go to wallbuilders.com, you can learn more about it. And get them to that conference. It will encourage and equip them. They will be a better legislator as a result of it, I promise you. It's things like what you heard today from Jaco and yesterday from Senator Bullard and the other Pro-Family Legislators Conference presentations that we've played here, but it's even more than that. It's the fellowship, it's the camaraderie, it's just the worship, it the messages. It's amazing, I'm telling you. Make sure your state rep and your state senator know about it so they can come this fall. All right, folks, we're out of time for today. Thanks so much for listening. You've been listening to The WallBuilders Show.
