> Bill Young and John O'Rourke open with the Divine Mercy prayer, discuss the nomination of Supreme Court Justice Amy Barrett, and tackle controversial political issues such as abortion, Hunter Biden, and the Catholic conscience.

## Opening Prayer and Divine Mercy

We start with the Divine Mercy prayer, a reminder of God’s boundless compassion. I lead the prayer, asking for peace, no death, no hatred, and no Satan. We then recite the Our Father, the Hail Mary, and the Apostles’ Creed, grounding ourselves in the core of Catholic faith.

## Supreme Court Nomination

We talk about the nomination of Amy Barrett, a conservative judge who has already been nominated and will soon be confirmed by the Senate. I emphasize her commitment to the Constitution and her potential to uphold the First and Second Amendments. The discussion highlights the importance of a judge who interprets the law as written, not as a living document.

## Catholic Perspective on Abortion

I explain that the commandment “Thou shalt not kill” applies to unborn life. I argue that abortion is equivalent to murder, as the law treats a fetus as a human life. The Catholic Church teaches that life begins at conception, and that protecting it is a moral duty. I urge listeners to consider the life of every unborn child.

## Hunter Biden and Political Corruption

I recount my experience as an FBI analyst, describing the SAR reports that revealed wire transfers from a Russian source to Hunter Biden. I explain how these reports were allegedly covered up, allowing a foreign power to influence a U.S. political figure. I stress that such corruption undermines the integrity of our democracy and violates the Catholic call to justice.

## Closing Thoughts and Takeaway

We conclude with a final prayer, asking for God’s mercy for all sinners. I express hope that the new Supreme Court justice will protect the Constitution and that the Catholic conscience will guide us in making moral choices. The episode ends with a reminder that faith and action must go hand in hand.

*May the mercy of God guide us to uphold truth, justice, and the sanctity of life.*
