# Faith, vaccines, and the fight for electoral integrity
*2020-11-18*

> Bill Young and John O'Rourke discuss the rollout of COVID-19 vaccines under the Trump administration and express their concerns regarding the 2020 election results and the role of the Church.

## A Prayer for Strength

The episode begins with a prayer for strength during times of trial. The prayer acknowledges that while the pain and fear of life's challenges can feel overwhelming, all necessary strength is found in the hands of the Lord. It is a plea for the grace to face each day as it comes, keeping one's eyes fixed on God rather than worrying about tomorrow.

## Operation Warp Speed and the Vaccine Rollout

Bill and John discuss the news regarding the upcoming delivery of COVID-19 vaccines. They praise President Trump's foresight and execution in coordinating with the country's greatest minds to accelerate the approval process and ensure manufacturing was ready the moment approval was granted. They argue that this strategic planning—specifically the involvement of a four-star general to handle distribution—demonstrates a level of competence that their political opponents lacked.

They also criticize Governor Andrew Cuomo of New York, suggesting that political animosity between the Governor and the President could negatively impact the state's access to the vaccine. Bill expresses his frustration with the political climate in New York, suggesting that the leadership there has failed the people.

## Concerns Over Election Integrity

The conversation shifts to the 2020 election. Bill shares a personal reflection on seeing a symbolic sign in nature—three leaves forming a triangle representing the Trinity, flanked by black leaves—which he interprets as a spiritual warning. He expresses deep concern over reports of voting fraud, mentioning affidavits and allegations of coordinated racketeering (RICO) involving ballot dumping and signature discrepancies.

John adds to the discussion by mentioning concerns regarding Dominion voting software, alleging conflicts of interest among high-ranking officials and citing reported 'glitches' in Michigan that they believe were intentional. They argue that the mainstream media is covering up these issues to protect the Biden-Harris campaign.

## The Church and the Political Divide

Bill discusses his reaction to Pope Francis calling Joe Biden to offer congratulations and blessings. He expresses confusion and disappointment, suggesting that the Pope may not be fully aware of the evidence regarding election irregularities. He emphasizes the importance of truth and accountability, arguing that those involved in electoral fraud should be held legally responsible, regardless of their rank.

## Intercession of St. Joseph

The episode concludes with a prayer to St. Joseph, the spiritual father and protector of the Holy Family. The prayer asks for St. Joseph's intercession to protect the Church from the powers of darkness, the sneers of the devil, and all adversity, asking that the faithful be led by his example to live and die in holiness.

*The hosts urge listeners to keep the faith, stay strong, and pray that the truth regarding the election comes to light.*
