Trouble at The White House

Good evening. Welcome to Voice in the Wilderness. I'm Don Noble of Pure

Heart Ministries, and I welcome you today with exceedingly abundantly and overflowing joy.

I wasn't trying to be prophetic last week by saying, if something comes on

the horizon, we will be postponing the continuation of the Seven Cities of Revelation.

But I have the great honor of having with me today in the studio

a real White House correspondent to share some insights I think you will find valuable

and I believe it will give you prayer points with regard to our government and

our nation. So it's my pleasure to introduce to you doctor Anthony Harper.

I'm going to give you his bio, and then we'll hear from the doctor.

So Doctor Anthony Harper serves as principal White House correspondent with the inter Mountain

Christian News and israel News Who's Service Newsreel, exposing and reporting on anti Semitism

and other human rights violations. Doctor Harper is an Air Force veteran and is

an ordained Southern Baptist minister. He holds a pH d in psychology, a

master's degree in guidance and counseling and recently obtained a second BA degree in communication

with a journalism Medium Studies emphasis, as well as a music minor, and

is listed in the second edition of Who's Who in Medicine and Healthcare. It

is my pleasure to have this gentleman with us this evening, so I hope

you enjoy this program tonight. Our topic tonight is Trouble at the White House,

a White House correspondence perspective. And by the way, we are recording

three programs for you, so for the next three mondays, doctor Harper will

be with me, and I hope that you tune in to listen. Doctor

Harper. Welcome to Voice in the Wilderness. It's great to join you,

don and so important issues to address. Yes, and so this Trouble at

the White House, we're going to start and let you talk about propaganda that's

coming out of the White House. M hm, well, propaganda. I'm

sure other people might have concerns about that. Is that what is happening in

the in the in the in the White House, in the press room.

It feels a lot like propaganda because it's just you know, supporting the narrative

whatever the White House says, usually the risk correspondents aren't really challenging the Press

Secretary very far on the issue, and most of the media seems to be

very supportive of the Biden administration, like he can do no wrong, which

is in direct contrast during the Trump administration when I was there and where they

were after Trump all the time and badgering and just you know, challenging them

all the time. But we don't see any significant challenging going on at the

White House other than some Fox News questions some but my human rights questions are

actually more thought provoking and more challenging than I think any other reporter there,

and they don't want to address these major human rights violations that we're dealing with,

not only the anti semitism and all the ramifications, but you know,

human rights issues on a worldwide basis, whether it's the Chinese wigers that are

experiencing oregon harvesting and for sterilization, besides the forced labor that happening in these

interment camps in the province of East Turkistan. People may have heard about the

Wigers, but there's also the international child sex trafficking problem that the White House

won't respond to. And there's a Sound of Freedom movie that documents that problem,

which I've seen and I really highly recommend. But well, these are

serious issues. They're serious. They're so serious worldwide issues that you would think

that any press corps would want to address at least ask about to the Press

secretary. But yes, I know, I've watched some of those sessions and

it's it's just rather nauseating to me because there's really no fairness. As we

were talking yesterday about Simon Atiba, who has had his press badge removed.

Every time this fellow would try to ask a question, she would put him

down. So it's it's a very How can I say, there's just not

any freedom there to speak the truth? And why they want to avoid topics

that really, I mean talking about the wigers, talking about sex trafficking.

Why wouldn't you want to address those problems. It's puzzling, isn't it.

Yes, And in light of Veterans Day, they won't even address my veterans

questions about homeless veterans with PTSD, I mean the problem with the border and

housing, free housing for people that come across our border, but what about

our veterans? Yes, that are suffering greatly, and so that is very

disturbing. They won't even meet with me, they won't respond to my emails.

The Press Secretary is afraid to call on me because because these questions make

her uncomfortable. And you know, as you know, the role of a

good reporter is to ask challenging questions in a good way, not a threatening

way, just because you know, that's the that's the most caring thing to

do, is to expose injustice and and you know, bring attention to these

issues and hopefully the administration responds. But I don't see enough that happening,

and I see the media complicit in this. And regarding the topic of propaganda,

it reminds me is what Alan Dershowitz said here recently that you know,

all the regarding the protests about Palestinian Lives Matter thing and the hate of the

Jews, a lot of propaganda surrounding all that. And in the days of

Hitler, the media was in bed with Hitler, you know, doing their

propaganda thing, trying to convince people that Jews are wicked, evil people to

be exterminated. So it is so upsetting to experience this propaganda first and the

White House and I'm being bullied there as well. Well, let's talk about

the conflict among the media people when we'll get to being bullied toward the end

of our program, would you talk about the conflict that's going on among the

media people there? Okay, Well, the conflict, you know is,

you know, you mentioned Simon Atiba, He and I and others that are

challenging and the media pushes back against us. I know, the medias I've

been there with with Simon Atiba, you know, shouts out a question and

he makes more of a deal than I have ever made, or I think

most of the reporters. But you know, he's he is getting a lot

of pushback on several fronts. And his press pass was removed and I've been

the White House Correspondence Association removed his membership in that because of his his comments,

you know, and what happens in his encounters with Carine Jean Pierre there,

and it's been very lively interchanges. People may have seen that Simon A.

Tiba is a friend of mine, and but he he did disrupt the

press meetings on several occasions and he was very outspoken. So you know,

I actually want to do that but I'm a member of the Christian media and

representing a lot of Jewish people, so I have this responsibility in a christ

Like way, not to I don't want to be a peer, belligerent or

you know, disrespectful. Sometimes I do shout out a question, but it's

in a very limited situation, like when the Press secretary was bragging about the

right to kill children. I just shouted out a question about what about a

child's right to life? She was talking about codifying roe and Fox News did

a story about the child's right to life. I mean shouting that. That's

an exception for me to do that. But you know, I'm trying to

be wise and in my interaction with them there trying to be a serpent harmless

as a dove at least. Yes much, yes, And that's a that's

a pretty tough environment to to actually try to operate under that principle of scripture.

But thank you for being such a gentleman, and I know that I

listened to several of your clips, so I I see the difficulty. You

know, just again, like you said, you know, a journalist is

there to challenge the certain situations occurring, not just in our nation around the

world asking the Press Secretary to address it, and yet there's no there's no

comment from her, there's no acknowledgment that she even heard your statement or question.

So, yes, it's a difficult arena to be in. It's like

you're swimming with the sharks. But yes, you know, propaganda doesn't have

a foundation in love. It's not rooted in love. And my approach is

different. I'm trying to aproach it from a loving perspective of gently exposing the

problem to educate people about what's going on. And I'm not here to condemn

anyone there, And I'm just, you know, wanted to be christ Like

and my approach, but the truth makes people uncomfortable sometimes and what is so

I guess unique about what I'm doing, and with the help of God,

I can courageously bring up scripture as it relates to Christian and Jewish concerns.

So this is a news issue. But regarding the child's right to life,

I was there at the on the Rov Wade day Supreme Court overturned this roeb

Wade situation. I think I was the only reporter at the Press Secretary's office

with I had a gentle confrontation with her in her doorway she was going to

leave, and I asked her, you know, face to face, what

about a child's right to life? What's your response to our Christian audience?

And she was afraid to look at me, and she just turned around and

went back into he oppose and shut the door. She wouldn't say anything,

and I would just you know, gently, just asking her for a response,

but you know, get the door slammed. So well, at least

you're representing christ Well, what about the White House access for conservative media?

You and Simon and there are others I'm sure that are part of conservative media.

Fox News to some degree, at least they used to be pretty conservative.

I think they've kind of changed a little bit of their leaning. But

comment please about this access for conservative meeting. I mean, we have been

talking about that that there's limited to none, but maybe you have a little

more insight there. Well, I do, because I've seen it from the

inside and from the outside issue and made a lot of valuable observations. But

this is all described really well in this news report by Daily Signal four hundred

and forty two reporters or lose their press passes or something to that affect that

title, but people can research that on that it's highlighting the Daily Signal reporter

Fred Lucas and his situation, Simon and Tiba situation and mine, and that

my attorney letter is printed in this article, so I would encourage people to

read what it has to say about that it's so important on several fronts.

And I wanted to also give a reference to Dennis Praeger. There's a video

about fake news goes along with this propaganda idea that people could watch this wonderful

video clip, you know, about fake news and what it's all about,

describing that whole narrative situation. But you know, it has been so very

troubling to experience this, and I can say that my press pass is not

impacted. I am able to get into the White House. Thank God for

some good attorneys that challenge the White House. And it's described in this news

article that people can read the attorney letter and they just really confronted the White

House well and challenged them. And so the White House responds by saying,

your press pass will be functional while we review your applications. So I haven't

heard back from them, and I may never hear back. They just might

want to shove this under the under the door, the under the carpet,

and just you know, not to make a big deal of it, because

it would be a big deal if they remove a major member of the Christian

media. I'm usually the only christ media person there and usually the only member

for the Jewish of the Israeli news media. So if they, yeah,

it took mind, it'd be a nightmare for them pr wise, and we

would make a big deal of it, but it would show their insult towards

the Jewish and Christian audience in a very large way, and that would not

be good in light of all the rise of anti Semitism and hatred for Jewish

and Christian people. It is obvious to me, and I'm sure as a

minister, it's obvious to you that we are really fighting a spiritual battle.

It's so obvious that light versus dark, and Dirk doesn't know how to respond,

as you mentioned, but the light needs to keep shining. I'm glad

and I did not realize you were the only Christian person in that press corps

there, and that's sitting in that room, so thank goodness, the Lord

has you in a very special position there you're bringing light that, I'm sure

to you. It doesn't feel like you're shedding and dispersing much light, but

you are. You are a light in the darkness, and for that we

are thankful. Would you address being bullied at the White House? An,

That's an interesting thing. We often hear that children are being bullied on social

media, being bullied in school. I was bullied, believe it or not,

Bye, boys and so. But we didn't, I don't know,

we didn't give much thought to it. I never I never shared that with

anybody. I never told my parents, I never told anyone. It's just

just kept it to myself. And I didn't like it at all. But

really, being a girl, there wasn't much I could do. So white

House bullying, please share your experience well too. But you know, you

said something about being, you know, a member of the Christian media,

and I'm really probably not the only Christian person there, but usually the only

member of the Christian media there, Christian media. That's what I meant to

make clear. I do meet Christian people there that work for other news outlets.

I get to pray with other reporters at the White House, so and

so that's wonderful opportunity. I met some reporters from Greece that are very supportive

of Israel, and but most of the reporters I meet are anti Israel.

So it was very a breath of fresh air to meet these some reporters from

Greece news networks that were that understood the problem anti Semitis, and they were

on my side of this issue, you can see clearly. But so thankfully

there are some Christian people there, but there they don't have the freedom,

I think as I do. With identifiable christ media outlet representing all the Christian

newspapers in the US and Canada, we have about eight million readers. It's

the Christian Newspaper Association, Okay, And I can get into the bullying situation.

I think that's related to being a Christian there picking on me. But

the more specific example was a Playboy reporter, a reporter for CNN. He's

not always Salon, which is very liberal, anti Israel, anti Christian in

many ways. But it was during the during that COVID vaccine situation at the

White House and the double standards and all that. So I'm in a press

room and this reporter is about six feet or so away from on the other

side of room, and I want to go up and, you know,

talk with him, but he he, he doesn't have a mask on.

I have a mask on, and he's saying, stay back six feet away

from me. You're not vaccinated. So anyway, I just thought I should

mention I feel like I need to wear a yellow star. And he says,

I'm not asking you to equate this to the Holocaust. That's terrible something,

and I'm not asking you to burn them alive in ovens. I know

why he you know, I comment, but I do feel like I need

to wear a yellow star. That's my situation, and people Holocaust survivors in

Israel were traumatized by speak what was going on. If you would I may

have there may be some young listeners that don't know about the yellow star.

Would you mind just explaining that a little bitter kay Hitler forced the Jewish people

to wear yellow star to identify themselves. They had to have a yellow star

on their person, on their clothing. So you can look up about yellow

star, but that it was the days of Hitler and the Jews were,

Oh, it's terrible to think about what would happened to them. And this

very disturbing video to watch about the Holocaust, and we're almost I believe that

we're in the early days of the Hitler youth, yes, giving rise to

this situation. As Alan Dershowitz recently said in a video, he was interviewed,

I think it was on Fox News, but and then he came up

very angry against former President Obama. We'll be talking about that in another program.

Yes, yes, very upsetting. So did you have any other incidents

of being bullied? Oh, yes, there are a few other Actually there

was one camera person for AB I think it was ABC News, But in

anyway, I was outside and it was about this whole that was about the

vaccine issue, and we're outdoors. But he's said, you claim to be

a religious reporter and you come here and putting us all at risk by not

being vaccinated. And then I responded to him, it seems like you're a

hypocrite. We had an interesting conversation, brief interchange there, but he was

just you know, confronting me about really telling me that I'm a hypocrite for

being a member of the religious media, and that I'm there and I'm not

wearing a mask. So anyway, interesting though. After I got really sick

from that virus and I returned to the White House press secretary, not Carine

Jean Pierre, but Jennifer Saki. She acknowledges my return and she says welcome

back, doctor Harper at the beginning of the press meeting with all the reporters

there. But she refused to take my questions. That was upsetting. I

thought, wow, you know, maybe there's an open door, she'll take

my questions. And nope. But at least she did call on me twice

and she met with me. She was not afraid to meet with me,

and she did respond to a couple of my emails. Whereas no response whatsoever

from this press secretary. Well, that is a difficult place, and there

is trouble at the White House. It's I mean, you don't have to

be you don't have to be a White House press correspondent to know that there's

trouble with the White House. Even with how about finding cocaine at the White

House? I mean, oh, we've heard that, haven't we. What

is what is that that the FBI doesn't know that there's cocaine in the White

House. That's so odd? Yeah, you think I mean, there's supposed

to be a lot of cameras on this, this is a high nobody knows

location, no, I mean they can't find any fingerprints on the bag.

That that's hard for me to believe. But maybe it's related to a lot

of people thought it might be really just someone in the White House. I

don't. There's a lot of secrecy, of a lot of smoke and mirror

situation. But I'm wanted. I just finally, you know, comment it's

sad for you and me and for others that have been bullied. I was

bullied in high school, and actually I encourage girls, women to speak up

and complain and hold people accountable. People can speak up and go after them

and expose it in a godly way. Just expose it and complain and make

your voice known. I didn't complain enough, and I didn't push back against

the bullies as I would like to have had. But I had. I

had some friends at school that loved to beat up bullies, so they were

my buddies, and they like to defend me and beat them up. So

it was okay as long as my buddies were nearby. But when they weren't,

you know, I was being chased, you know, and I didn't

want to fight, and I grew up with I had a lot of anger

about this being bullied, and so I think some kids they just they blow

up, and sometimes they do really bad things like shoot bullies and Columbine,

Colorado maybe some other situations pushing people to the to the brink and and when

you're on under influence of drugs. I can Columbine the shooters. I think

we're involved with some psychiatric drug use, and so it can just push you

over the edge and and really bad things happen. But it's really bad to

bully someone and it can be sometimes with a dangerous outcome. Yes, yes,

now I'm not familiar with the White House Press Corps. But are are

Are you meeting every day with the press secretary or is the televised version of

that just I mean, I don't know how that whole operation works. Okay,

it's usually just three three press meetings a week because of President Biden traveling,

and then she's not there when he's traveling. So I would say an

average of three sometimes four, But and they last how long? They last?

About an hour sometimes is shorter, but and then and then her preference

is to you know, take questions from the first two rows of reporters.

This has been happening actually for quite some time. But but Jennifer Saki did

take me my questions, and I'm the under one of the underdog reporters,

and so she acknowledges me and and and she would actually give more more people

on opportunity than this current one. And a lot of the news reporters are

very frustrated or angry with her about her reluctance to be open and up in

transparent, even the ones that aren't aren't with Christian news outlets, even with

yeah, without Christian news outlets like like one American News, you know,

avoiding to take that reporter's questions, or the Daily Caller or you know,

some other news outlets. I often witness this happening my Greece reporter friend and

many others. There are seven rows of seven seats, so forty nine seats.

Oh okay, and usually you know twelve twelve of the forty nine I

would think maximum would be called on so and all favorable to their agenda,

right their narrative. Well, this has been an interesting topic and certainly from

an insight it's great to hear what you have to say about that. Unfortunately

it's not happy news. It's more like sad news. But yet I'm thankful

that we have a light in the darkness there and other As you mentioned,

there are other reporters that are Christians, but you specifically represent Christian media.

So anyway, we are thankful that you are there and the service that you

are providing for the rest of us, because most of what we get is

what they want us to hear. Well. I can make a final comment

in part of the trouble of the White House is that my situation is that

I'm not able to be there much longer unless I can get enough national support

to keep me there. We need good media people there, but it's been

somewhat of a crisis for me to can continue to stay there. So hopefully

we'll get the support that is needed. And I need to get someone to

assist me there to fill informed me when I'm when I'm gone, So we

need this continual good presence there. Good great, well, thank you for
