Now open your hearts to what God's word has to say to you. Here is Jack Kibs.

11
00:00:52.720 --> 00:01:00.480
Hey, welcome to this episode of Real Life and we have something truly today that I believe

12
00:01:00.480 --> 00:01:06.880
that if you are willing to listen and to spread the word regarding what you're about to hear,

13
00:01:06.880 --> 00:01:10.880
to someone you know in the public school system and you might be saying, well that's everybody.

14
00:01:10.960 --> 00:01:17.840
Well, that may be true. So spread the word. Here's the deal. Today, I have with me Jessica

15
00:01:17.840 --> 00:01:24.560
Tapia and she is a public school teacher. For six years, she's been a public school teacher.

16
00:01:25.360 --> 00:01:34.720
She has her master's degree in education. She has experienced a challenging upbringing

17
00:01:34.800 --> 00:01:41.120
to say the least. She is a woman that I would think people would want to emulate and get behind

18
00:01:41.120 --> 00:01:48.320
and support because she's a success story. She has taken what we would say in biblical terms

19
00:01:48.320 --> 00:01:56.000
ashes and has turned them into beauty. Her life matters. Her faith matters. She's a woman of

20
00:01:56.000 --> 00:02:02.240
faith and she has taken a stand and she's done that in the public school system, but that has

21
00:02:02.240 --> 00:02:10.000
become unacceptable. And so she has recently lost her job as a public school teacher for her

22
00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:15.920
faith in California, but her story is not limited to California. This is happening in school

23
00:02:15.920 --> 00:02:22.720
districts all across the United States. So you need to tune in. You need to give extra attention

24
00:02:22.720 --> 00:02:29.360
because I do believe that you're going to derive courage from her testimony and you might even get

25
00:02:30.320 --> 00:02:38.000
some direction as to what you should do mom and dad or what you should do principal or teacher

26
00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:44.960
regarding the dynamics of what's happening with us assault on our public school system. So

27
00:02:44.960 --> 00:02:51.440
Jessica, welcome. Thank you. It's an honor to have you here. And so just tell us about yourself.

28
00:02:51.440 --> 00:02:57.520
I mean, I mentioned a few things, but let us know who you are and we'll talk about what's happening

29
00:02:57.600 --> 00:03:00.880
and then really frankly, what you're going to be doing about it.

30
00:03:01.520 --> 00:03:07.920
Yes. Well, first of all, thank you for having me. I told my husband immediately after I was

31
00:03:07.920 --> 00:03:14.400
fired and I put a little post out on my Instagram to start sharing with the world. And then I

32
00:03:14.400 --> 00:03:18.240
started receiving the media requests and I looked at him and I was like, the first thing I want to

33
00:03:18.240 --> 00:03:24.880
do is talk to my pastor. So I've done a few other interviews, but I'm so happy to finally be sitting

34
00:03:24.880 --> 00:03:32.480
with you. So who I am, I'm obviously a follower of Christ. I'm a wife and a mother of three.

35
00:03:33.760 --> 00:03:39.280
I went to California Baptist University, got a couple degrees there. My teaching credential,

36
00:03:39.280 --> 00:03:45.120
which is so interesting to me looking back now that I went to a private Christian college to

37
00:03:45.120 --> 00:03:50.880
receive my teaching credential. And then now I'm in this position where as a Christian public school

38
00:03:50.880 --> 00:03:58.400
teacher, I've been removed from my position for standing in the truth of the Lord and of the Bible.

39
00:03:59.040 --> 00:04:06.400
So that's interesting to me, but everything for a reason, I truly have peace even though this is

40
00:04:06.400 --> 00:04:12.240
like a lot of people look at this and they're so sorry for me and I want to tell people don't be.

41
00:04:13.040 --> 00:04:19.920
I really believe that like God is doing something with this and I'm not sorry. I don't want you to

42
00:04:19.920 --> 00:04:26.480
be sorry. I want you to just come alongside me in so many have and just, you know, stand up and

43
00:04:26.480 --> 00:04:32.560
together like let's make change because we all see and know that it needs to happen. We truly are

44
00:04:32.560 --> 00:04:39.760
the majority. We just can't be silent anymore. That's so true. So so true. So again, how long have

45
00:04:39.760 --> 00:04:46.320
you been a teacher? So six years and this whole thing went down at the very end of my six year

46
00:04:46.320 --> 00:04:50.960
of teaching literally two days before summer vacation. So tell us about, um,

47
00:04:52.080 --> 00:04:58.480
tell us about what I guess what I'm asking, what's the day in the life of a public school teacher?

48
00:04:58.480 --> 00:05:05.680
Walk us through that for those of us who don't know. What will I encounter as a public school

49
00:05:05.760 --> 00:05:12.560
teacher for the year? What am I going to be facing in the system?

50
00:05:14.160 --> 00:05:22.400
So I, this past year, I had just moved to the high school level. I actually had moved to the

51
00:05:22.400 --> 00:05:28.160
high school that I attended and that I met my husband at and the high school where I was very,

52
00:05:28.160 --> 00:05:35.440
very influenced by my coaches. One of my coaches actually invited me to her Bible study. She is

53
00:05:35.520 --> 00:05:41.920
now my mother-in-law. Oh my gosh. So a lot of history there. Yeah. It was incredible to go back

54
00:05:43.200 --> 00:05:48.960
and hopefully, you know, have that same influence on on my students that my coaches and teachers had

55
00:05:48.960 --> 00:05:59.280
on me. And um, but it's different. It was different going back, um, just dark and heavy. It's one

56
00:05:59.280 --> 00:06:04.640
of those things where you just walk on campus and you feel the culture. As a person, you can feel

57
00:06:04.800 --> 00:06:12.000
as believers, we know that even walking into a store or a city or wherever, you can sense that

58
00:06:12.000 --> 00:06:18.320
there's something up. Right. And so that's the sense, but to be more, I guess, descriptive, just

59
00:06:19.440 --> 00:06:24.800
you compare to what you know and what you've been through. So when I was there as, you know, a student,

60
00:06:24.800 --> 00:06:32.320
um, for example, you know, dress code, you know, a girl wouldn't dare to wear a spaghetti strap.

61
00:06:33.040 --> 00:06:42.000
But now I'm walking around and there's students in what look to be bras. Actually, yes, we've seen

62
00:06:42.000 --> 00:06:49.680
that and you are correct. And it seems that no one's saying anything. So then you don't feel that

63
00:06:49.680 --> 00:06:55.200
you can say anything and we're all just going along with it and it's just getting worse.

64
00:06:57.760 --> 00:07:06.880
So it was definitely not what I, things have gotten to a point, I think, culturally and morally,

65
00:07:08.480 --> 00:07:15.520
at least speaking for the school that I was at, um, to where I didn't feel like I could even

66
00:07:15.520 --> 00:07:20.880
teach anymore. I didn't feel like the students were even wanting me to teach or open to

67
00:07:20.880 --> 00:07:29.360
me teaching. They were just like in their own world. So they would, so look, I mean, I'm old enough

68
00:07:29.360 --> 00:07:36.160
to be your dad. When I was in school, attention was demanded. If you didn't pay attention, you paid

69
00:07:36.160 --> 00:07:42.240
the price. Uh, you learned or you repeated a class until you got it right. You weren't going to

70
00:07:42.240 --> 00:07:47.840
advance to the next grade until you, until you got it down. There was no, just go with the flow

71
00:07:47.840 --> 00:07:55.120
thing. Uh, my goodness, back in my day, we actually got spanked in school. Um, and so what I'm saying is

72
00:07:55.120 --> 00:08:00.720
this, um, people who, uh, how could that happen? That's terrible. I'm not going to get into that part

73
00:08:00.720 --> 00:08:06.800
of it. I'm not sure at the time I agreed with it. But the point was, um, we were producing people

74
00:08:06.800 --> 00:08:12.720
who were way smarter and disciplined in all areas. By the way, it's not just, it's not just,

75
00:08:12.720 --> 00:08:19.760
can you read the book? It's, do you have over the school year? Did you develop character? So, um,

76
00:08:19.760 --> 00:08:24.880
it's my understanding that in the public school system, there's a great level of, of dish respect.

77
00:08:24.880 --> 00:08:30.560
I don't have to, I don't need to do this. What's this for? You, you know, who are you to tell me?

78
00:08:31.360 --> 00:08:40.080
Um, and yeah, the, the immorality, um, the, the, the attack that has been levied against you,

79
00:08:40.080 --> 00:08:48.400
walk us through that. Why? Why did they have an issue? And what have they said to you? How do they

80
00:08:48.400 --> 00:08:55.360
communicate that to you? Yeah. So it all started, um, like I said, literally a couple days before

81
00:08:55.360 --> 00:09:02.080
summer break, um, of last year. So at the end of May of last year, I noticed that students had

82
00:09:02.080 --> 00:09:08.480
found me on social media because I was getting some really awful comments and it didn't normally get

83
00:09:08.480 --> 00:09:12.720
comments like that from students or from who you don't know. I didn't know at first when I read

84
00:09:12.720 --> 00:09:18.640
the comments. I was like, private page. It's my Instagram page. I had recently made it public, um,

85
00:09:18.640 --> 00:09:24.160
to share about a business that I had started and to share with. It's not the school. No, it doesn't

86
00:09:24.160 --> 00:09:29.440
even say that I'm a teacher on there. It doesn't say where I teach. It's my private personal where I

87
00:09:29.440 --> 00:09:37.120
share my beliefs, my opinions and my Christian religion. Um, students decided to look me up for whatever

88
00:09:37.120 --> 00:09:41.920
reason. I don't know. Maybe they were looking me up to see my kids that I talk about to see my

89
00:09:41.920 --> 00:09:48.160
horse that I talk about. I don't know, but they found something they didn't like. Um, specifically,

90
00:09:48.160 --> 00:09:56.080
it was a video. I was out shopping one day and just seeing all of the pride clothing and

91
00:09:56.080 --> 00:10:02.080
this time, I was very shocked to find that they're now making this stuff for toddlers and babies.

92
00:10:02.080 --> 00:10:10.240
Yes. Like 12 month. Yeah. Pratt. And so I was sharing that, you know, bringing awareness of that to

93
00:10:10.240 --> 00:10:16.880
to other moms. And, um, specifically, like in my caption said, I, I think this is wrong. A three

94
00:10:16.880 --> 00:10:23.120
year old cannot wrap their mind around what pride is. Why are we making? Yeah. Completely normal

95
00:10:23.120 --> 00:10:27.680
comments because this is America. And you have your first amendment, right? Sharing my opinion or

96
00:10:27.680 --> 00:10:34.560
to sharing my opinion and, well, the right students found that. Um, and they air dropped that video

97
00:10:34.560 --> 00:10:42.720
across campus and of course made it into a phobic thing and made it into a hate thing. Um,

98
00:10:43.680 --> 00:10:49.040
and I was just blocking and deleting as I was receiving comments from students because I don't,

99
00:10:49.040 --> 00:10:53.280
you know, I'm a teacher. I don't want them on my page. They shouldn't be there. Um,

100
00:10:54.080 --> 00:10:58.960
and I didn't want any trouble. Well, after I had deleted one of the comments, they came back and

101
00:10:58.960 --> 00:11:04.960
said too late, we've sent this into the district. So this is intimidation and bullying now. So

102
00:11:05.520 --> 00:11:10.000
the, uh, the woke world that says bullying is terrible. They're masters at bullying.

103
00:11:10.800 --> 00:11:15.520
And the woke world that says, uh, don't criticize me. You have to accept me. They cannot,

104
00:11:15.520 --> 00:11:20.960
they can't accept anybody that's outside of their lane. And their lane is very, very petite or

105
00:11:20.960 --> 00:11:26.560
very narrow. Um, and I'll just throw this in there. It's because they're extremely fragile.

106
00:11:27.280 --> 00:11:32.640
Um, they bent, they break when they bend, they, they have no ability to cope. And eventually

107
00:11:32.640 --> 00:11:37.120
they're going to have to go into the real world, which they will not make it. They, they will fail

108
00:11:37.120 --> 00:11:41.280
because they haven't learned how to debate. They haven't learned how to cope.

109
00:11:42.320 --> 00:11:48.160
Uh, they, they are the same equivalency to what you used to see at Toys R Us when they were in

110
00:11:48.160 --> 00:11:54.240
business of a, of a three year old or a five year old screaming and slapping their mother in the

111
00:11:54.240 --> 00:12:02.480
toy aisle because they wanted that toy and mommy said no. And so, um, the remarkable thing is that

112
00:12:02.560 --> 00:12:07.840
you're exercising your first amendment constitutional rights and everything about

113
00:12:07.840 --> 00:12:16.880
what you're doing is private, but, um, they went and made it, um, a, a public thing in the sense

114
00:12:16.880 --> 00:12:23.200
that you can't do this. You, how dare you? Right. As a, as a teacher, I should not have stated

115
00:12:23.200 --> 00:12:29.280
my opinions. And that amazing. So as a, on your private page, you are a mom, you are a,

116
00:12:29.280 --> 00:12:36.880
an equestrian, a gal with the horse and you're living your life and they, they, they insert

117
00:12:37.680 --> 00:12:42.800
what they're imposing upon you then is these are the rules of the school or the administration.

118
00:12:42.800 --> 00:12:49.040
And we're imposing that upon your, your private social media platform. 24, 7, not so not just

119
00:12:49.040 --> 00:12:53.920
when you're at work. We are holding you to this at all times if you're going to be a teacher.

120
00:12:53.920 --> 00:13:00.240
So do other teachers know this is going on? Yes. Yes, they are. They're coming aware of it because

121
00:13:00.240 --> 00:13:10.320
of my story getting out. Good. So after, um, those videos and also several posts, this is what,

122
00:13:11.200 --> 00:13:18.480
this is a really confirmed that this is spiritual warfare for me, um, totally facing spiritual warfare,

123
00:13:18.480 --> 00:13:23.760
like I've never faced it before. At least to my recognition was when I was brought into the

124
00:13:23.760 --> 00:13:29.360
school district for the first meeting and they presented me with what students had found on the

125
00:13:29.360 --> 00:13:34.800
various things on social media. They sent into the district at the back of this packet of papers

126
00:13:34.800 --> 00:13:40.240
which had several allegations. So essentially students found things they didn't like on my social

127
00:13:40.240 --> 00:13:47.280
media and then use those to craft allegations against me as a teacher. A couple of them being that

128
00:13:47.280 --> 00:13:55.600
I broadcast sermons to my classes. And I've just looked at the district personnel and I was like,

129
00:13:55.600 --> 00:14:02.240
I'm going to be so honest with you. This is the only thing I can think of that this allegation

130
00:14:02.240 --> 00:14:08.240
would be made upon. I'm a PE teacher on Mondays. We go to the track and they have a mile to do and

131
00:14:08.240 --> 00:14:14.320
that's the one day I let them listen to a podcast or music of their choosing and I do the same.

132
00:14:14.320 --> 00:14:18.720
But I don't put in headphones like they do because I need to be vigilant. But I put on

133
00:14:19.680 --> 00:14:27.920
oh no or worship music or you know something of my choosing. You don't want to hear what they put on

134
00:14:27.920 --> 00:14:34.000
the students. And it's just loud enough in my pocket. It's not blaring. It's not being broadcast. It's

135
00:14:34.000 --> 00:14:40.000
just loud enough so I can hear it as I walk around and watch my students. And so interesting too

136
00:14:40.000 --> 00:14:46.640
because I've had several students as they walk by comment like, oh I love that song or what church

137
00:14:46.640 --> 00:14:51.440
do you go to? And it's you know kind of been great to strike up conversation with some of my

138
00:14:51.440 --> 00:14:57.280
students. But then all of a sudden the students found my social media and found my other opinions

139
00:14:57.280 --> 00:15:06.480
and beliefs and went to work crafting allegations against me. And anyways what I was starting to get

140
00:15:06.640 --> 00:15:11.440
at the back of that packet was printouts of screenshots the students sent into the district.

141
00:15:12.240 --> 00:15:17.200
Several of them were Bible verses I posted on my Instagram and I'm just thinking

142
00:15:18.640 --> 00:15:27.040
are they really using Bible verses to back like these allegations against me?

143
00:15:27.040 --> 00:15:32.960
Yeah because the Bible is so dangerous and evil you know. Yes. Yes. And how could we have such a thing?

144
00:15:33.600 --> 00:15:38.000
You know it's amazing to me what you're describing and it's said because what I'm going to say

145
00:15:38.000 --> 00:15:42.960
it the young the young people are not going to understand what I'm going to say because they've

146
00:15:42.960 --> 00:15:50.080
never been taught is you are literally describing these kids as being brown shirts. These are the brown

147
00:15:50.080 --> 00:15:57.360
shirts of Adolf Hitler's Nazi regime. Brown shirts were children who were taught by the system to

148
00:15:57.360 --> 00:16:04.480
turn people in. Wow. They're called brown shirts. So I'm just going to call them brown shirts.

149
00:16:04.480 --> 00:16:11.760
Normally these kids would normally be more concerned about their acne or their hair.

150
00:16:11.760 --> 00:16:17.280
That was me. That was me. Or are they going to pass or they are they I'm not going to make the

151
00:16:17.280 --> 00:16:24.800
team. What is really bizarre to what you're saying is these are kids who are little police officers

152
00:16:25.600 --> 00:16:32.160
which makes them brown shirts that I can't imagine that happening unless

153
00:16:33.360 --> 00:16:40.880
what happened to the brown shirts of the 40s 1940s they were groomed by adults. They were told

154
00:16:41.760 --> 00:16:47.520
so to speak I'm exaggerating right now but we'll give you a donut or we'll give you a candy or

155
00:16:47.520 --> 00:16:54.400
a piece of chocolate. If you tell us if you hear people saying these things and they turn people in

156
00:16:55.120 --> 00:17:02.320
and so it's amazing because we're living in this this moment. So the only way to stop this

157
00:17:03.200 --> 00:17:09.120
you've probably seen this on on the P.E. field or in the classrooms but the only way to stop what

158
00:17:09.120 --> 00:17:14.640
we're talking about is for good people to punch back and you say I can't believe a pastor just

159
00:17:14.640 --> 00:17:23.160
said that well you need to get used to it because in 1st Corinthians 106 I'm sorry 2nd

160
00:17:23.160 --> 00:17:29.520
Corinthians 106 the Bible tells us that by our obedience to Christ we punish disobedience

161
00:17:30.400 --> 00:17:36.800
which means we're to do the right thing and if that right thing causes evil to be exposed that's

162
00:17:36.800 --> 00:17:43.840
the whole point. So what I want to say about Jessica is that she's courageous, she's strong,

163
00:17:43.840 --> 00:17:52.800
she knows not only her biblical calling, she's exposing evil but she's also exercising her

164
00:17:52.800 --> 00:17:59.360
first amendment rights. In America she has that right to do exactly what she's doing technically,

165
00:17:59.360 --> 00:18:05.920
technically those brown shirt little punks do not have the right to do what they're doing.

166
00:18:06.240 --> 00:18:14.800
They've been groomed by a social structure that is a form of communalism, communism and that's

167
00:18:14.800 --> 00:18:21.600
what's happening and so teachers you need to stand up you need to do what Jessica's doing. In fact

168
00:18:21.600 --> 00:18:28.880
Jessica what are you doing? Yes so after that first meeting that I kind of described the allegations

169
00:18:28.880 --> 00:18:35.280
and the Bible verse printouts and all of that I responded to all of those vocally and then they

170
00:18:35.280 --> 00:18:42.560
took some time to process what I voiced based on the allegations and then essentially decided what

171
00:18:42.560 --> 00:18:47.280
they were going to do with me called me in for a second meeting and basically told me I'm lucky to

172
00:18:47.280 --> 00:18:53.920
still have a job what I had done was so serious and wrong. Okay that's intimidation but keep going.

173
00:18:54.960 --> 00:19:00.480
And it was it felt really awful to hear that from these district personnel because

174
00:19:00.880 --> 00:19:09.120
before all this they respected me they adored me I've done so much for the district I think I was a student

175
00:19:09.120 --> 00:19:17.760
there, straight A student there, athlete, lifeguard, sub coach all the things but because of this one

176
00:19:17.760 --> 00:19:25.200
finding it was like I saw their whole vision of me just flip and it's like a mask

177
00:19:26.160 --> 00:19:31.200
switched on their career. Yeah and it was instantly like even if you are calling me back I don't

178
00:19:31.200 --> 00:19:37.840
I wouldn't even feel comfortable coming back you clearly like don't like me anymore. Yeah it's not

179
00:19:37.840 --> 00:19:44.000
so well I'm sorry to put words in your mouth but if I were your attorney for example I would say

180
00:19:44.000 --> 00:19:52.160
something to the effect of if they invited you back they they previously already made it clear

181
00:19:52.160 --> 00:19:59.920
that your views are not welcome and what we are as human beings is our views and so the

182
00:19:59.920 --> 00:20:05.680
environment is not a free environment. Hi Jessica welcome back but you're not free.

183
00:20:05.680 --> 00:20:12.560
Right. Hi welcome back but you cannot express your personal views and you cannot be an American.

184
00:20:12.560 --> 00:20:18.880
You cannot exercise the constitution and you've got to be woke if you want to keep your job.

185
00:20:18.960 --> 00:20:25.040
So all of these things are actually illegal for that to be imposed upon you but

186
00:20:25.040 --> 00:20:30.800
Yes and that's exactly what happened in the second meeting they said I was lucky to have my

187
00:20:30.800 --> 00:20:34.960
job back I was barely allowed to come back here are the directives you need to follow and we're

188
00:20:34.960 --> 00:20:40.240
going to be watching you closely for 45 days for change of behavior and that right away change

189
00:20:40.240 --> 00:20:44.720
of behavior I've behaved the same way for six years of teaching I have nothing to change so

190
00:20:44.720 --> 00:20:48.960
you're not going to find any change of behavior there and then the directives were

191
00:20:50.080 --> 00:20:56.080
affirmation for me of what I was already feeling in my soul about the whole situation so first a

192
00:20:56.080 --> 00:21:01.680
directive that I knew well I can't and won't do that is I need to refer to students by their

193
00:21:01.680 --> 00:21:07.920
preferred pronoun and gender and in the meeting I wasn't voicing to them nope not doing that

194
00:21:07.920 --> 00:21:14.080
no I was just internalizing all of it as they spoke their directives over me for returning

195
00:21:14.080 --> 00:21:21.200
that Monday the second allegation was I was to refrain from speaking to students about God or

196
00:21:21.200 --> 00:21:27.120
the Bible that's illegal that really hurt my soul so I'm sorry I keep interrupting you but it's

197
00:21:27.120 --> 00:21:34.320
because I find your this is incredibly fascinating so you are to hold to the social construct that

198
00:21:34.320 --> 00:21:40.960
we are inventing you will do as we say and you should be so lucky that we're going to be so

199
00:21:40.960 --> 00:21:49.520
nice to you to allow you to come back but we are going to dictate your life and we are going to

200
00:21:49.520 --> 00:21:56.880
scrub this God thing out of your life when most people don't even realize that the public school

201
00:21:56.880 --> 00:22:03.920
system was founded by three guys one of them happened to be in a guy by the name of Thomas Jefferson

202
00:22:04.640 --> 00:22:09.920
Benjamin Rush was was another one and I think John Adams is in there but whoever the third

203
00:22:09.920 --> 00:22:15.920
guy is is a real big hitter and their their founding of the public school system was based on this

204
00:22:17.520 --> 00:22:23.840
there are people homeschooling their kids in colonial America and some of them are not teaching

205
00:22:23.840 --> 00:22:30.880
them the Bible so we're going to create the public school system and the Bible will be the

206
00:22:30.880 --> 00:22:37.440
preeminent textbook as well as the McGuffee reader these will be the foundations of the public school

207
00:22:37.440 --> 00:22:44.000
system because some kids are not getting a biblical worldview that's Thomas Jefferson friends go

208
00:22:44.000 --> 00:22:55.520
look that up and now our system has divorced itself from God and you are in this machine that is

209
00:22:55.520 --> 00:23:00.640
godless and what's interesting about what they're telling you to do they're actually

210
00:23:01.840 --> 00:23:06.560
doing what they claim nobody's allowed to do and that is you got to stay out of politics you

211
00:23:06.560 --> 00:23:13.760
got to stay out of politics what they're doing is pure politics okay and their political agenda is

212
00:23:13.760 --> 00:23:24.160
you will submit which is actually tyrannical and so you were fired yes so after receiving those

213
00:23:24.160 --> 00:23:29.440
directives so those were the the two that I previously voiced those were the two instantly

214
00:23:29.440 --> 00:23:36.960
like inside I knew I'm not complying with those and they also vocally in that second meeting with

215
00:23:36.960 --> 00:23:45.440
the presentation of directives vocally told me that I had to lie to parents if a student came to

216
00:23:45.440 --> 00:23:51.200
me with a preferred gender or pronoun that info had to be withheld from parents for the sake of

217
00:23:51.200 --> 00:23:59.120
the student's privacy and I was so taken back by that that I looked at the assistant superintendent

218
00:23:59.120 --> 00:24:04.720
in the eyes and I said are you asking me to lie to parents and they said yes it's the law it's for

219
00:24:04.720 --> 00:24:11.600
the student's privacy so that's a subversion of parental authority they told you to lie and I

220
00:24:11.600 --> 00:24:18.000
said we're talking about the well-being information regarding the well-being of a child and they

221
00:24:18.000 --> 00:24:23.280
said yeah exactly you don't you don't understand there's some students where when their

222
00:24:23.280 --> 00:24:29.600
parents find out they kick them out of the house it's known to first of all that may or may not be

223
00:24:29.600 --> 00:24:36.480
true I have no input on that I have no knowledge of that but that's not their concern their concern

224
00:24:36.480 --> 00:24:47.120
is math right geography let's leave home at home yeah yeah exactly so I'm assuming now our system

225
00:24:47.120 --> 00:24:51.120
and by the way those of you listen do you think this is a California issue to national issue

226
00:24:52.000 --> 00:24:57.680
somebody just told me last night oh we're moving to we're moving to Tennessee we're moving to

227
00:24:57.680 --> 00:25:02.080
Nashville where we don't have these we're getting out of California we're moving to Nashville

228
00:25:02.080 --> 00:25:05.760
and it was so bizarre because I told the guy said well that's funny about four days ago I just

229
00:25:05.760 --> 00:25:09.760
talked to somebody who moved to Nashville and they were talking about how insanely woke their

230
00:25:09.760 --> 00:25:15.760
school system is and it was worse than California so the point is it's a national this is a national

231
00:25:15.760 --> 00:25:21.280
battle and by the way we want to make this a national battle we want Jessica to be an encouragement

232
00:25:21.280 --> 00:25:28.000
to you the Bible tells us and in Joshua chapter one uh God tells Joshua over and over again and

233
00:25:28.000 --> 00:25:33.120
just one chapter be strong and of good courage do not be afraid for I'm with you wherever you go

234
00:25:33.120 --> 00:25:39.120
he keeps telling Joshua that Joshua the great first general of the Israeli forces

235
00:25:39.680 --> 00:25:44.960
God has to keep telling them be strong and of good courage don't be afraid why because Joshua

236
00:25:44.960 --> 00:25:50.560
was prone to be discouraged and to be afraid God doesn't waste his breath and so

237
00:25:51.040 --> 00:25:55.360
all of you who are in the public school system we've got to figure out unless there's maybe there's

238
00:25:55.360 --> 00:26:00.560
something out there right now forming but there's got to be some form of an alliance that maybe

239
00:26:00.560 --> 00:26:07.680
Jessica can invent and take it national right take it nationally to have it be like you know almost

240
00:26:08.640 --> 00:26:18.160
the the national school teachers reporting center where you bring your Jessica story and

241
00:26:19.280 --> 00:26:27.760
let's get these incredible agencies that will represent you in court for free there's there's

242
00:26:28.480 --> 00:26:33.200
the Pacific Justice Institute there's advocates for faith and freedom there's the alliance

243
00:26:33.840 --> 00:26:40.480
uh for for defending alliance defending freedom fund there's there's uh liberty counsel there's

244
00:26:40.480 --> 00:26:46.320
so many that are waiting to hear but listen we're gonna lose our system uh to what I was alluding

245
00:26:46.320 --> 00:26:56.400
to early and I didn't finish this I guess is you're gonna be bullied until you stand up to the

246
00:26:56.400 --> 00:27:04.720
bully this is human psychology a bully will push a kid around all school year long until that kid

247
00:27:04.720 --> 00:27:10.160
we've all watched movies like this haven't we sand lot movies like this where the kid finally

248
00:27:10.160 --> 00:27:14.800
gets fed up and punches the bully in the nose and then from that time on the bully leaves the guy

249
00:27:14.800 --> 00:27:22.560
alone every boy knows this by the way every every first grade boy knows that you punch the bully

250
00:27:23.280 --> 00:27:28.800
in the nose and then the rest of the school years fine well there's a lot of people now who are

251
00:27:28.800 --> 00:27:34.560
school teachers and or administrators that are just nothing but overgrown bullies and they're

252
00:27:34.560 --> 00:27:39.600
intimidating you know you have a bully on your hands when they threaten and intimidate you

253
00:27:40.240 --> 00:27:47.760
in our nation right now you can punch them back by legal means if you're a Christian get friends

254
00:27:47.760 --> 00:27:53.920
praying read your Bible read the book of Joshua read the book of Proverbs at the same time get on

255
00:27:53.920 --> 00:28:00.400
the phone and get a very very strong attorney and what you do is you do what Paul the Apostle did

256
00:28:01.040 --> 00:28:08.640
you exercise your Roman rights Paul exercised his Roman rights when he as a Roman citizen

257
00:28:09.520 --> 00:28:16.720
was attacked he said I appeal to Caesar only a Roman citizen could do that and listen the authorities

258
00:28:16.720 --> 00:28:27.600
in cesarea they were bound to then file documents sending Paul to Rome they had to that was the law

259
00:28:28.320 --> 00:28:35.680
Paul used the law of the Roman Empire to advance his cause and Paul went to Rome and you need to

260
00:28:35.680 --> 00:28:39.920
do the same thing you need to know hey wait a minute I'm a school teacher this is my life this is

261
00:28:39.920 --> 00:28:46.240
my love I'm being told that I cannot have a Bible on my desk oh yeah you can it's your constitutional

262
00:28:46.240 --> 00:28:52.080
right they're threatened to sue me or they just fired me or they're telling me this or they're

263
00:28:52.080 --> 00:29:00.480
telling me that there needs to be some form of place for you to go to so this is so vitally important

264
00:29:00.480 --> 00:29:07.200
we need to I'm so sorry we need to wrap this up but tell us where you're at what are you doing now

265
00:29:08.800 --> 00:29:13.760
tell us about going forward and what you hope to see happen yeah so just really quick before

266
00:29:13.760 --> 00:29:21.040
that the third meeting was after I took three months of stress leave to figure out what I was going

267
00:29:21.040 --> 00:29:25.920
to do next regarding the directives new in my heart and soul I wasn't going to comply with several

268
00:29:25.920 --> 00:29:34.880
of them do I resign or do I as you stated you know stand up to the beast yep and I actually for

269
00:29:34.880 --> 00:29:40.160
most of the months was planning to resign had half of a resignation letter written in for some

270
00:29:40.160 --> 00:29:44.880
reason could never get around to finishing it and it was I was so stressed out one day

271
00:29:44.880 --> 00:29:49.120
and I was telling my mother-in-law I just I need to finish this letter like I have three little

272
00:29:49.120 --> 00:29:55.600
ones so I was never able to sit down and type and she just was like just there's probably a reason

273
00:29:55.600 --> 00:30:01.680
that you haven't been able to finish it just trust and then maybe I just started praying and then

274
00:30:01.680 --> 00:30:07.360
maybe a day or two after that had a divine appointment of a phone call with a couple in Washington

275
00:30:07.360 --> 00:30:14.480
that I had only connected with through Instagram got very close to the wife because of her faith

276
00:30:14.480 --> 00:30:22.160
and they spoke over me I really want to say prophesied over me and they they gave me the answer

277
00:30:22.160 --> 00:30:26.640
that I was praying for asking God do I resign or do I vocalize to the district that I won't comply

278
00:30:26.640 --> 00:30:31.680
with these things I'm ready to come back to work but here's what I won't do and they said don't

279
00:30:31.680 --> 00:30:38.000
resign you keep standing up to resign would have been to quit and sad to say there's been a lot of

280
00:30:38.000 --> 00:30:45.440
really good people that I know that they didn't come and ask they didn't come and get prayer they

281
00:30:45.440 --> 00:30:51.040
came and told me I quit and I just kind of cringe when I hear that because I love what Winston

282
00:30:51.040 --> 00:30:56.720
Churchill said he said it's always too soon to quit you know and so we're so proud of you

283
00:30:56.880 --> 00:31:04.240
how do is there anything that we you so you're going to court yeah yes we're still waiting

284
00:31:04.240 --> 00:31:09.200
for the right to sue letter which was new for me I didn't know that you had to have a right to sue

285
00:31:09.920 --> 00:31:15.600
but we're waiting for that from EEOC and then from there we will begin litigating in the Riverside

286
00:31:15.600 --> 00:31:23.520
County Court and for now just you know spreading the story far and wide and I already see many

287
00:31:23.600 --> 00:31:30.000
parents I believe waking up to what's really happening in in the school system I have hundreds of

288
00:31:30.000 --> 00:31:36.320
messages from teachers that are either have shared their very inspired by what I've done or they've

289
00:31:36.320 --> 00:31:41.600
shared with me that they were in a similar position and resigned which makes me sad but and then

290
00:31:41.600 --> 00:31:47.680
I actually have several teachers that are going through this with me like currently having to make

291
00:31:47.760 --> 00:31:54.160
the decision and so I'm encouraging them to stand up is there a do you have a what how do people

292
00:31:54.160 --> 00:31:58.640
reach out to us is it I know it's all happening so fast are you ready for that do you have that

293
00:31:59.280 --> 00:32:06.080
on my Instagram is where I keep everyone up today yeah it's my Instagram name is just underscore

294
00:32:06.080 --> 00:32:16.080
saying so it's J-E-S-S underscore S-A-Y-I-N-N-N just saying okay we'll make sure that that's that

295
00:32:16.080 --> 00:32:25.680
appears and people get that really quick you have been bombarded with media you I'm not exactly

296
00:32:25.680 --> 00:32:32.000
sure when this podcast is going to drop but probably by that time you will that have been on numerous

297
00:32:33.120 --> 00:32:40.240
news and radio interviews and all but one of them will be Tucker Carlson yes that's set for

298
00:32:40.240 --> 00:32:47.280
the 27th I believe that's Monday 27th of February this is huge because he has the largest viewing

299
00:32:47.280 --> 00:32:52.480
audience so just think about that millions of people are going to hear this and I pray I pray

300
00:32:52.480 --> 00:32:57.680
that out of the millions that there is at least a million or 500,000 school teachers that are

301
00:32:57.680 --> 00:33:04.720
going to say you know what wow I need to defend what I love and here's the here's the thing when good

302
00:33:04.720 --> 00:33:12.400
people abandon the public square or when good people just shut down evil fills that void

303
00:33:13.200 --> 00:33:18.560
evil rushes in it's just the way evil works when light goes out darkness comes if you notice that

304
00:33:18.560 --> 00:33:22.720
when you turn off your light and your room darkness comes it's ended amazing when you turn the light

305
00:33:22.720 --> 00:33:28.800
switch on where does darkness darkness go I mean think about it because light itself is a physical

306
00:33:28.800 --> 00:33:34.480
structure I mean these are photons that actually fill up a room where did darkness go

307
00:33:35.520 --> 00:33:43.360
and by you standing you are dispelling the darkness and I want to talk to every Christian or at

308
00:33:43.360 --> 00:33:49.040
least good teacher that's out there you have to be a Christian to be a good teacher if you love

309
00:33:49.040 --> 00:33:53.840
the kids and you love teaching and this is going on to you or if it's or it will happen to you you

310
00:33:53.840 --> 00:34:01.440
need to stand you need to stand because these are the days evil advances like the thug on the on

311
00:34:01.440 --> 00:34:10.000
the campus who's pushing people around and we have got to figure out as God honoring Bible believing

312
00:34:10.640 --> 00:34:17.520
submitted committed Christians how to exercise as Paul did his freedoms for the cause of Christ

313
00:34:18.480 --> 00:34:24.480
and so I want everyone to be praying for Jessica please this is a prayer request that you would

314
00:34:24.480 --> 00:34:32.320
pray for her that you would stay and in tune with what's happening and follow we'll do a follow-up

315
00:34:32.320 --> 00:34:41.600
podcast as time progresses but I just really want to just pray that your legal counsel is

316
00:34:41.600 --> 00:34:51.920
absolutely lie and hearted your legal counsel must be like a dog on a bone so as they say a

317
00:34:51.920 --> 00:35:00.400
relentless and so we pray for your legal counsel we pray for you we pray for these poor kids who

318
00:35:00.400 --> 00:35:09.600
are being manipulated by frankly people that I have just about zero respect for these people who

319
00:35:09.920 --> 00:35:18.480
manipulate kids to spy and to promote their godless agenda there should be shame written all over

320
00:35:18.480 --> 00:35:27.920
them but you know the way that we must come back this is to stand in the truth and to exercise our

321
00:35:27.920 --> 00:35:36.160
freedoms while we have them and so we're impressed and I just I'm so grateful for you and I just

322
00:35:36.160 --> 00:35:45.920
know that God is going to use this he will never waste the opportunity to glorify his name through

323
00:35:45.920 --> 00:35:53.520
a yielded child of his and that's who you are we love you we're with you and so I am just

324
00:35:53.520 --> 00:35:59.280
absolutely so so grateful so you guys stay tuned this has been powerful my goodness I just this
