“[Christian nationalists] see it in cataclysmic terms: This is the moment, and God’s going to judge us,” “When you paint it in existential terms like that, a lot of people feel justified to carry out acts of violence in the name of their faith.” -Elizabeth Neumann, a former top official at the Department of Homeland Security who resigned from Trump administration in April 2020.

(Bonus Ep) Sound of Freedom Deep Dive with Cynane Shay
Cheers To Leaving!
09/25/23 • 88 min
TW: Sex trafficking
Sound of freedom hit theaters July 4th and it is an independent action film directed by Alejandro Monteverde.
The story is about Tim Ballard. He is a former Department of Homeland Security agent and the founder and former CEO of Operation Underground Railroad (O.U.R.) an anti-sex trafficking organization.
Sound of freedom tells Tim Ballard's story of his Operation Triple Take, a joint action between OUR and the Colombian government that reportedly rescued 123 trafficked people—55 of whom were children. So why are we talking about this? Sounds like a good story, right?
Well Ballard is not all he's cracked up to be. Ballard and OUR aren’t actually central to the international fight against human trafficking. The majority of the [anti-trafficking] field views them as fringe. They’re on the outs of this genre. They like to sell sensationalism...and they fundraise off it. Because Christians love that shit.
Cynane and I discuss the new Sound of Freedom movie, Qanon, Jim Caviezel, Tim Ballard, OUR organization, sex trafficking, and much more.
