As seen on “The 700 Club,” March 30, 2021. Read Transcript


(dramatic music)

- Well, welcome to "The 700 Club."

Gender affirming therapy.

You say, "What is that?"

Planned Parenthood isnow offering hormones

to young people with no questions asked.

They simply say, quote, "I'm transgender.

I want the hormones," and voila.

How much should this new business venture

benefit Planned Parenthood?

And how are they targeting children

as young as 16 and under?

Heather Sells brings usthis shocking report.

- Planned Parenthood hasbegun offering hormone therapy

to those who identify as transgender.

It is a new business modelthat makes financial sense,

potentially for years to come.

- You are accepting all the risks

and you just, you say, "I'm transgender.

I want these hormones," andthey will give them to you.

- [Heather] AttorneyMary Hasson is watching

the growing number of youngpeople, especially girls,

who see themselves either as transgender

or simply gender-nonconforming

filling Planned Parenthood waiting rooms.

- They seek hormonesto modify their bodies,

not to the extent thatsomeone who identifies

as transgender might,but just, for example,

for a girl to have less fat,to have more musculature,

to look a little bit more masculine.

- [Heather] The giant abortionprovider's annual report

shows its expanding business venture.

200 centers in 31 states nowwelcome these young people,

and the Family Research Council says

Planned Parenthood has becomethe second largest provider

of hormone therapy tothose wanting to change.

It is labeled gender affirming therapy,

which means no questions asked

and no need for mental health support.

- Instead of their underlyingwounds being addressed

and someone sorting out why itis that it feels so terrible

to be a woman and thatthey hate their bodies,

instead of asking, what's going on,

they're simply medicating that

and creating new customers for life

in ways that are deeply damagingto these women's bodies.

- [Heather] Some centersare even targeting teens

16 and under, setting upa business relationship

that can last for a lifetime

and permanently alter adolescent bodies.

Heather Sells, CBN News.

- You know, the founderof Planned Parenthood

was a lady named Margaret Sanger

and she was unbelievably evil.

She wrote a book, and I read the monograph

so don't tell me that it'snot true, I've read it,

called "Breeding the Thoroughbred."

And what she wanted to do

was to sterilize mentally defectives.

She wanted to sterilizeSouthern European people.

She wanted to sterilizecertain Protestants.

And then, of course, she wantedto sterilize black people.

Now, that was her agenda,and Planned Parenthood

is Margaret Sanger had, was the founder

of what was called eugenics.

And I thought thatshe'd taken her material

from Adolf Hitler.

It's the other way around.

Hitler took his stufffrom Margaret Sanger.

And she was the founderof Planned Parenthood.

And Planned Parenthoodhas gotten so pervasive.

It's gotten so much moneyfrom the federal government

that Barack Obama, during his presidency,

in the showdown with Congress,

was willing to shut the government down

rather than eliminatethe subsidies being paid

to Planned Parenthood.

And you've got to go all theway through the federal budget

to find out all thoseitems, but it amounts

to at least $100 million,maybe more than that,

being paid by the federalgovernment to Planned Parenthood.

It is an absolutelypernicious, evil organization,

and its founder was,

well, words fails to me

to describe the kind of person she was.

But nevertheless, they'regetting all this money,

and this is a new stream of money,

a new stream of money that'sgoing to take little children,

youngsters, boys andgirls, and change their sex

without any questions being asked.

Well, in other news, SouthDakota's governor is under fire

for vetoing a lawprotecting women's sports.

The legislature overturned her veto.

So what did she do next?

John Jessup has that.

- That is right, Pat.

South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem

is resorting to usingher executive privilege

to keep transgender males fromcompeting in women's sports

in public schools and colleges.

One order limits participationin women's sports

to females based on theirbiological sex from K through 12.

The other issue addresses the other,

rather, addresses theissue on the college level.

Noem announced the orders

after the state's Republican legislature

overrode her veto of a bill designed

to protect women's sports on Monday.

Noem said the bill didn't do enough

to protect college athletes,but she faced harsh criticism

from conservatives over her vote.

Before Monday's events, CBN's David Brody

asked the Republican governorwhether she sent the bill back

after corporate pressurefrom the NCAA and Amazon.

- If this bill was justa K through 12 bill,

you would sign it, but the problem

is the college component here,

'cause the NCAA may sue the state

or maybe take their business elsewhere?

- Only girls should beplaying in girls sports.

That's not up for dispute.

My goal is really to protect our kids,

make sure that we don't haveboys playing in girls sports

at the K-12 level, and thenalso, at the collegiate level,

go fight a battle that we can win.

- Noem signed the orders within an hour

of the legislature's override.

Well, nine minutes of terror.

That's how the prosecutor described

George Floyd's last momentsin the first day of the trial

of former police officer, Derek Chauvin.

But the defense attorney argues

the defendant did nothing wrong.

CBN's Jenna Browder has the latest

on the highly charged trial.

- After opening statements,

the prosecution began calling witnesses,

one of them a 911 operator

who saw the entire incident unfold.

- [Witness] The fact that youguys aren't checking his pulse

and doing compressions if he needs them?

- [Jenna] Prosecutor JerryBlackwell laid out his case,

starting with bystander videoshowing the final minutes

of George Floyd's life.

Blackwell placing allblame for Floyd's death

on Officer Chauvin, whoknelt on the victim's neck

for more than nine minutes.

- Mr. Derek Chauvin betrayed this badge

when he used excessiveand unreasonable force

upon the body Mr. George Floyd.

- [Jenna] But defense attorneyEric Nelson making a case

for reasonable doubt inhis opening statement,

arguing officers struggledto constrain Floyd

and highlighting his drug use

and underlying health conditions.

- The evidence willshow that Mr. Floyd died

of a cardiac arrhythmiathat occurred as a result

of hypertension, his coronary disease,

the ingestion ofmethamphetamine and fentanyl,

and the adrenalineflowing through his body.

- [George] Please, I can't breathe.

- [Jenna] The prosecutionthen put its opening witnesses

on the stand.

- He was going throughdistress because of the knee

and he vocalized it,that "I can't breathe.

I need to get up and I'm sorry."

- [Jenna] The 911operator also testifying,

saying she watched the incidentunfold on street camera,

later reporting it to a supervisor.

- My instincts were tellingme that something's wrong.

Something is not right.

I don't know what, butsomething wasn't right.

- Ultimately, it comes down to 14 jurors,

eight white and six black or multiracial

will hear this case,which is expected to last

up to four weeks.

And there's concern the trialcould spark violent protests.

That's why some 100 NationalGuard members are standing by

in Minneapolis.

Jenna Browder, CBN News.

- Thank you, Jenna.

Pat, back to you.

- You know, we have a principle in law

that a person is innocentuntil proved guilty,

and I certainly agree with that.

But I tell ya, what thisChauvin did was so blatant.

It was so ungodly and it wenton for an interminable time.

And it was played out on television

and it has resulted in tens of millions

of dollars worth of damageagainst goods and property.

It's resulted in riotingall across America.

It has set the causeof race relations back,

you know, decades and it was all because

of this one bad cop.

And in my opinion, theyoughta, not put him in jail,

but put him under the jail.

I mean, what he did was just horrible.

But as I say, the principle of law

is he's innocent until proved guilty,

but the defense is puttingup a pretty good case.

And you know, even if Floydhad pre-existing conditions,

if he had fentanyl in hissystem, whatever he had,

that wasn't the cause ofhis death, it doesn't seem.

And Chauvin, I mean, he hascost us as a nation dearly

and there's just no punishmentthat I think is adequate

to take care of what he's done.

John.

- Pat, some good news inthe fight against COVID-19.

A real-world study shows the Pfizer

and Moderna vaccines are 90% effective,

and just one dose of eitherprovides 80% effectiveness

in preventing infections from the virus,

according to a CDC study.

The US is now vaccinating

between two to three million people daily.

This as the Bidenadministration is warning people

not to drop their guard.

Cases are rising nationwide,

prompting concerns about a fourth surge.

However, some statesthat lifted restrictions

are not seeing an increase in cases.

In Texas, for example, wherethe governor opened the state

and lifted mask restrictions last month,

cases are dropping to a record low

over the past threeweeks, down more than 42%.

Well neither President Biden

nor Vice President Harrishave visited the border,

but Republican lawmakersare making the trip

and they're blaming thepresident's immigration policies

for the surge.

Texas RepublicanCongresswoman Beth Van Duyne

spoke with CBN's "FaithNation" from the border.

Congresswoman Van Duyne,

have you been able to meetwith Border Patrol agents

or other law enforcement officials?

I wonder what they're telling you.

- We have.

We have talked to themand they are very direct

that they feel like theyare in reactionary mode,

that, you know, underthe Trump administration,

we were able to get ahandle on what was happening

by allowing people toapply for asylum in Mexico

or the first safe country they came in

instead of having thismassive surge onto our border.

And what we've seen under thiscurrent Biden administration

is all of those solutions that worked

under the last administration,the Trump administration,

had been removed.

- More than 17,000 unaccompanied minors

who crossed the borderalone are now in US custody.

Senator Lindsey Graham visitedthe border over the weekend.

He told Fox's Sean Hannityhow the current policies

are enticing people to sendchildren to the border alone.

- I saw children withnumbers on their wrists,

and here's what that means.

They have family membersin the United States, Sean.

They send money back Central America.

They hire a humansmuggler, human trafficker,

to get 'em to the border.

Once we catch them, yourtax dollars are used

to reunite the family.

This is not catch and release.

This is catch and reunite.

- The Biden administrationsays it is sending the message

to people in Central and South America

not to come to the southern border.

Still, predictions, Pat, are that,

as we come into thespring and summer months,

the numbers will only increase.

- Well, this business about, well,

it's spiking because it'swarm weather is nonsense.

I mean, that area downthere is warm all the time

and I think it's ridiculousto talk about that.

But there is no questionthat these people are coming

because they think JoeBiden has invited them.

And unless Joe Bidensays, "You can't come,

and if you do come, you'regonna be sent back home,"

and then he tells the Mexicans,as they have in the past,

that they themselves won'tallow the people to transition

from Honduras or El Salvadoracross their territory,

and if they say that,then the thing will stop.

But we cannot accommodatethis enormous surge.

Some of them are actually being put up

in expensive hotels at government expense.

And what Lindsey Grahamsaid about the taxpayer,

it's not just the taxpayer.

The cartels are bringingthese people across,

putting a label on them,

finding out informationabout their families,

and then threatening their families.

When they come in,they'll know who they are,

where they are, and they'llsay, "If you don't pay us

or do whatever we ask youto do, we'll kill you."

I mean, so the cartelsare reaching into America

because of this stuff that's going on.

It's not just thetaxpayers paying the bill.

Ladies and gentlemen, we cannotallow our federal government

to do what they're doing to us

'cause it's affecting every one of us.

And when these people comeinto these communities,

they're being shipped into allacross the country in buses

and they turn 'em looseand they're gonna be

in various cities throughoutTexas, New Mexico, Arizona,

and then all the way up into the Midwest

and then all over the country,

and thanks to our current president.

Why?

Well they think, number one,

the big companies wantcheap labor, number one,

and that holds the cost of labor down.

Number two, they think thatthese people can be made

to vote for the DemocratParty and, therefore,

they want to have more of them in here.

And then they want to give them status,

they want to give them citizenship,

they want to give them protection,

and then they want togive them healthcare.

And before it's finished,

they want to give them freetuition in our colleges.

Unbelievable.

We cannot afford it.

John.

- Pat, the internationalshipping saga is over

now that shipping is onceagain moving in the Suez Canal.

Salvage teams freed themassive container ship Monday

that brought much of theworld's trade to a standstill.

A high tide enhanced by a supermoon

helped finally break the220,000-ton ship loose

after being stuck for nearly a week.

The delay cost companiesbillions of dollars.

Well, it was an incredibleCinderella story

for Oral RobertsUniversity's basketball team

during this year's March Madness.

Even though the Golden Eagles were beaten

in the Sweet 16 last weekend,

the university president, William Wilson,

says the staff and students aregrateful for the experience.

He says, even when it was overshadowed

by a cancel culture call forthe NCAA to oust the school

over its stand on biblical sexuality,

the school's focus remained onwhat's always mattered most.

- Our views on theseissues are nothing new.

We've been around for over 50 years

and we're committed to havinga culture and an ethos at ORU

grounded in the word of Godand one that gives our students

the very best chance for success.

So we're grateful, we're thankful.

We don't expect everybodyto agree with us.

There's room in Americafor diverse opinions.

We accept that.

And we appreciate peoplerespecting our opinion

and not being religiouslydiscriminate against us.

- The Final Four starts this weekend,

and Pat, it was such a closegame, just down by two points.

- It's amazing what they've done.

The Green family of Hobby Lobby

have given an enormous amount of money

to Oral Roberts University.

It's in the neighborhoodof 350 million or so.

- Wow.- And they rescued the school.

The school was going down.

It was...

You know, when Oral left,there was confusion,

tremendous amount of debt, and so forth,

and it's been rescued and turned around.

But the idea that we have a culture now

where people would come against a school.

Why?

Because they do notagree with homosexuality,

lesbianism, and transgender activities.

And because they don't dothat, they should be prohibited

from engaging in sporting activity

because of the policies of the school.

That's how far we've gone.

It wasn't long ago, Imean, a few decades ago,

when this type of conductthat they're advocating

was actually considered a pathology

and it was a psychological pathology.

Now, the circle has come around

so that those peopleare now the oppressors,

and if you don't agree with them,

they will destroy your activity.

It's not a question of live and let live.

It's a question of you agree with us

or we will take you down.

And that's what it wasbeing advocated against ORU.

So my salute and hats off to them.

Keep with your policies,

and there are millionsof people in America

who agree with what you're doing,

agree with biblical values,

and we're not gonna let thethought police destroy you.

So great work in the Sweet 16.

I mean, that's a Cinderella story,

- That is a Cinderella story.- of major magnitude.

Congratulations to ORU.

I was once...

They had the president's council out there

and I was chairman ofthat years and years ago

when Oral was running the school

and it was just starting out.

It was a thrill to seewhat they were doing at ORU

in those early days.

I was there at the early days

when the school was just getting going.

And you know, I'm glad to see 'em...

You know, Oral, it was amazing.

He was then, in those days,

he was out recruitingtall basketball players.

You'd see these seven...- It paid off.

(Terry laughs)

So, I mean, that was Oral'spolicy years and years ago.

He didn't feel the football team,

but he went for basketball.

And he would go out and, Imean, literally go to a house

where these people were andhe'd pray with the mother

and say, "You've gottasend your son to ORU,"

and the mother-- We need him.

Yeah, and mother would say,"Well, Reverend Roberts

was here to see me andI've gotta get my boy

to come to your school."

You're talking aboutrecruiting. It was amazing.

But anyhow, congratulations.
