Tom Massie: The Good News No One Else Has - Instant Grace with Jim Babka 51

Tom Massie: The Good News No One Else Has - Instant Grace with Jim Babka 51

This one is audio-only, taken from Jim Babka's appearance on The Gary Nolan Show, Thursday May 21. Jim had a secret he wouldn't share until he was on air. And Jim's review of Tom Massie's primary loss includes a fact that everyone overlooks. Turns out, there's a very positive half-loaf analysis to be had - as in, "How strong a candidate is Massie for a 2028 Libertarian presidential run?" On top of that, Jim explains why people were willing to imbibe lies about Massie - in other words, the real Steelman reason that the MAGA base is still so loyal to Trump. You'll want to hear it all in this brief episode. CREDITS Bill Protzmann is your moderator. ZERO AGGRESSION PROJECT - https://zeroaggressionproject.org/ - is our sponsor.

Tom Massie May Surprise: I Called it! - Instant Grace with Jim Babka 50

You've heard of an October Surprise. Now, Tom Massie is the victim of a May Surprise - because his primary election is next Tuesday. And you heard Jim Babka predict that this smear campaign would happen, back in December (see link below). Jim explains the fake attack. But the BIGGER QUESTION involves grief. Massie's opponents have continued to hit him where it hurts - the death of his wife. And this makes Jim wonder aloud... Why do adults, actual grown ups, act so weird about sexuality and the need for human connection? Why does anyone believe they have the right to determine how others should handle their grief and loneliness? As always, this is about grace. 12.10.25 / The Self-Hating Tea Party vs Thomas Massie - https://youtu.be/8nQzLJ2hQEk - recorded 12.5 1.5.26 / Instant 43: Attacks on Tom Massie and Rand Paul have already begun - https://youtu.be/YGY0ILpk9us 3.18.26 / 156: The Latest Attack on Tom Massie, Reading Between the Lines - https://youtu.be/VAIwFgQJHDU CREDITS Bill Protzmann is your moderator.

159 Hantavirus And The Lab Leak Indictment of David Morens - Gracearchy with Jim Babka

Is the David Morens indictment science vs. politics, or even political retaliation? This government scientist has been indicted for allegedly conspiring to suppress investigation into the Covid lab leak. Meanwhile, passengers disembarked a ship in Spain after Hantavirus exposures, and we recorded this episode the next day (May 11) because this leaves us in uncomfortable wonder: Are we still vulnerable to the same failures that may have cost millions of lives? We're not here to do much rehash of what we covered in our landmark March 2023 Episode 41, "Covid and the Spillover Gang." There, we presented a thorough case for why the lab leak was a far better explanation than zoonotic spillover. Here, we're bringing you the breaking facts in the Morens indictment, what they reveal about the original investigation, and why they matter today. And here's what might surprise you most: Jim will show how this entire affair — the cover-ups, the politics, the tangled science — can be handled with Grace leading to reconciliation. Two crises. New evidence. A path forward. Start listening.

The Second Reason It's Wrong To Shoot The President - Instant Grace with Jim Babka 49

There are the obvious reasons it's wrong, and then... There is the overlooked reason. Besides that, it's contrary to a No Kings ethic, not to mention the Zero Aggression Principle and Human Respect. Maybe, when you believe the ruler's heart is rotten and his actions stink, instead of violence, there's a role for a higher power. With that, there's an action that promotes peace in the heart and only then... Peace in the land. CREDITS Bill Protzmann is your moderator.
