And y'all know I asked for one last year.
Here it is the whole way in August.
I still ain't got it.
Y'all ain't saying nothing.
Let me kick down the door and talk to my cheap sons and daughters.
>> That's Missouri Pastor Carlton Funderburke,
shouting down his own parishioners for failing to buy him a fancy new watch.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> I don't want to hear no more excuses
about what y'all can't afford.
You can't afford it because you don't see the value here.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> You'll hear from your passing father.
I'm over y'all?
>> [APPLAUSE] >> No, I'm over your cheap expressions.
See that's how I know you still poor broke busted and
disgusted because of how you've been honoring me.
I'm not worth your McDonald's money.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> I'm not worth your red lobster money
>> [APPLAUSE]
>> I ain't worth your St.
John Nick, y'all can't afford it, no how.
>> What are you guys doing?
People in the background like Hallelujah?
Why are you there?
Like what?
He's mad at his parishioners for failing to buy him a Movado watch.
He's talking them down.
Calling them cheap and they're like, yes, give me more.
I don't understand humans.
But anyway, let me give you more details.
The clip featured Carlton Funderburke.
I don't know if that's his real last name, but that's what it's reported to be.
Senior pastor at Kansas City's church at The Well telling churchgoers they were
cheap sons and daughters for not honoring their pastor by buying him a Movado watch.
>> [LAUGH] But in America, that's normal.
I mean, that's just nuts, totally insane.
But every, like every race does it.
Every denomination does it.
Everybody does it, you got white pastors, you got black pastors all saying,
you got to buy me private jets, you got to buy me fancy cars.
You got to buy me fancy watches.
You got Copeland, that demon, saying that, hey, flying in a regular plane is
flying with, I call him a demon because he called regular people are demons.
He's like, you don't want to fly with demons in a place.
That's why Jesus needs me to have a private jet.
And look, if you're one of those religious folks who believe in these extremists,
I mean, look, I don't know what to tell you.
I don't know what to tell you man.
You got to get your head examined.
>> They're not even extremists.
They're hucksters.
That's what they are, flecking hucksters.
I can't believe that anyone would fall for this garbage and get, and
take that kind of abuse.
Take that kind of abuse.
I'm not worth your Mcdonald's money, no, you ain't worth anything.
Okay, take a walk.
Are you kidding me right now?
I'm not worth your red lobster money.
Buy yourself a freaking watch.
Like it's disgusting.
This whole story is so disgusting.
So apparently there was at least one parishioner who wasn't buying it because
they posted this on social media and it went super super viral by the way.
He also says in case you missed it, you can buy a Movado watch at Sam's or
in Sam's meeting Sam's club and you all know, I asked for one last year here.
It is the whole way in August, I still ain't got it.
Y'all ain't said nothing.
Let me kick down the door and talk to my cheap sons and daughters.
You know, who's cheap,
the huckster who needs to scam churchgoers to get a watch for himself.
That's the cheap guy.
The disgusting scam artists that you're right.
He's not the only one.
There's so many of them.
What's wrong with Americans?
Is it your relationship with God supposed to be intimate and personal?
You really think God is gonna give you the middle finger
if you don't buy this random person a Movado watch.
What is wrong with people?
>> Yes, so I liked your distinction between extremists versus grifters because
extremist, there's extremist pastors who say, you should hate gay people.
You should hate these people.
You should hate that people, right?
And then there's the hucksters, which is a huge percentage of the pastors.
Look, keep it real.
Why are they going into that line of work?
You think it's because they're the most moral, come on guys.
I love you.
But you really believe that.
Still to this day.
No, that guy's good at talking what do other people who are good at talking to.
Unfortunately, a lot of them, and I hate to say this because I'm a talk shows, but
a lot of them wind up scamming people for money,
politicians are relatively good at talking.
What are they, grifters?
Almost all of them, Yeah.
Talk show host Fox News, every one of them is a goddamn liar.
And honestly, a lot of the ones in establishment media are liars for
corporations and the status quo.
And so if like, unfortunately in this country, if you can talk well,
they're like good, let's sign him up to rob people of money, okay.
And so this this guy is super obvious.
And what is the other top thing that grifters do?
They go to religion?
Because why?
Because religious people, good folks say I'm not gonna operate based on logic,
I'm gonna operate based on faith.
But once you get divorced from logic,
anybody can tell you anything and call it faith.
And then all of a sudden what happens, this is a tiny tiny scam.
The much larger scam is business interest, in 1970s.
They even wrote a memo about it.
Lewis Powell went on the Supreme Court, he wrote the memo that said, and
it's not just him, they wrote other memos to especially about religion.
They said, why don't we just go get religious people to vote for
Republicans so we can get tax cuts because you can tell religious people anything and
they'll believe it.
And unfortunately this is a decent example of it.
So now, but there's a difference now because the internet,
they're getting caught and he got caught, if he hadn't gotten caught,
he'd still be yelling and screaming at them telling them they're inferior.
I need to give them a watch.
But since the internet caught him all of a sudden,
a different reaction >> All of a sudden a very different
reaction in a different tone.
So let's take a look at a portion of his apology
video >> Though there is context behind
the content of the clip.
No context will suffice to explain the hurt and anguish caused by my words.
I've spoken to those I am accountable to and
have received their correction and instruction.
I have also privately apologized to our church who has extended their love and
support to me.
I'm privileged to do life with him.
The video clip does not reflect my heart or
my sentiments toward God's people yet that's not discernible in the clip.
Therefore, I offer this sincere apology to you today.
No context could erase the words I used.
I apologize to all who have been hurt, angered or in any way damaged by my words.
>> I mean, to be fair, there really isn't anything more powerful than a scripted,
heartfelt apology, especially when you use that, low sympathetic tone.
Yeah, not buying any of it and I love the fact that he mentioned the church.
So I apologize to the church and luckily they didn't fire him.
Of course they didn't fire you.
Of course they didn't.
It's a huckster church,
obviously you think they didn't know that he was doing this, they knew,
come on, look, everyone's free to do whatever the hell they want, right?
So if you wanna go to this church and
you wanna be scammed from these grifters, I guess have at it.
But I can't help but feel so much pain thinking about the likely
elderly people that are being again scammed by people like this.
>> Yeah, so, last thing here, look, if you're going to a church
that has a prosperity preacher, those are the ones that say Jesus
wanted everybody to get rich, but especially your pastor [LAUGH].
And they ask you for Bentleys and rolls Royce's and
private jets and Movado watches, your church is a total joke and
there it's set up for one reason only, to rob you.
Okay, so every prosperity preacher,
every single one of them is a crook and they're all frauds.
If you go to their churches, you're going to voluntarily to a robbery,
your own robbery, okay?
They say I'm going to rob you and then you let them.
Now, it doesn't mean every pastor.
So I'm gonna give the last word to a pastor in our audience Chaplain Fred ak
prayer dragon.
He wrote it through super chat, but I know he's also a member, he said Jenkin Ana,
I'm also a pastor of a church, but I can tell you, I've never dependent on my
congregation, I have my own business to help my community with my income.
This demon is the very reason people do not trust us.
So that's exactly right.
It's true. Also of the others like Kenneth Copeland,
Creflo Dollar, they're all crooks, obvious massive crooks.
Just because they attach the word God to their particular scam, doesn't
make them any better, it makes them worse >> And they shouldn't be tax exempt.
That ain't a church.
It's just a explicit scam mill and they get to enjoy tax exempt
status while pretending to be a religious organization.
It's sick.
