HIAS

And it's just time to kind of stop funding the thing that no longer really works.

Like HIAS is no longer the HIAS of 100 years ago.

The ADL is no longer the ADL of 50 years ago.

this institution is not at least institution anymore.

conservatives more generally for more than a decade

where these NGOs, Church World Service, U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, HIAS, they were all known as like these pro, you know, what they would characterize as pro-open borders groups.

And People just kind of had all these harebrained theories.

They didn't exactly know why.

So as a result, what do they have to do? Because you've got very limited capacity within your militaries, and how many operational combat units are you gonna get out of Lithuania or Finland or Sweden or any Luxembourg or wherever, wherever these places are? How many actual hardcore fighters are you gonna recruit? Now, you're gonna have to recruit what? The next generation of Gen Z fighters.

And so how do you do that in these areas, right? Because there's already a growing disdain for what a lot of these young people feel about the integration or the illegal immigration of, of places from the Middle East, Northern Africa, that essentially were the product of the global war on terror, and they have moved these in with all different types of financing from NGOs that are affiliated with the Open Society Foundation, the IMF, uh, International Red Cross, HIAS, all these groups just flooding these countries with foreign immigrants.

Now, what are you gonna do? Are you gonna, are you gonna recruit foreign people that hate the country or hate our way of life, whatever, to fight this war against Russia? Potentially.

I mean, there's, there's, there's an, a, a opportunity there to make those people citizens if they go fight for seven years or six years or whatever it is, and they get their citizenship, and they're good to go, and they get a paycheck, right? But again, [lip smacks] you know, it's...

But we've also got an HIA test today.

You, of course, or yourself, unfortunately, have been through a couple of HIAs, much like many pro athletes these days.

So you're going to put me through an HIA test at some point throughout the show and see how I fare because we talked about it yesterday and it's...

It's more difficult than what the average Joe punter on TV

But most of the organizations I actually know well are in my little Philadelphia bubble because of the work I do in foster care.

A few that immediately come to mind are the Achieving Independence Center, or AIC, which supports young adults who are in or have been involved with the foster care system, WAR, the Philadelphia Center Against Sexual Violence, HIAS, which provides immigration and refugee services, and the Mazzoni Center, which provides a variety of services to Philadelphia's LGBTQ plus community.

Now, these are services that I particularly interact with on a daily basis, and when I can, I like to support.

But I highly encourage you to find similar services in your area and either volunteer or donate to them.
