My feelings about Tim Ballard & OUR from somebody that was there...

- Jimmy shared his honest thoughts and feelings on the Tim Ballard & OUR situation.
Jimmy shares his background working with Tim and OUR and shares behind the scenes of some of the operations. There have been some beautiful experiences with working OUR and Jimmy has met some incredible people from the organization.
Jimmy explains that he feels duped about working with Tim. Jimmy says that the worst info is about to come out. He also explains that the EGO of Tim was the thing that destroyed a great organization. "All we wanted to do is save kids" Jimmy also explains why he stopped being a part of the group.
I don't think I'm going to believe anything from the internet right now. So many people are coming under fire at the moment. It's time for detached observation
So true
Yeah, he's obviously been given a script by the DNC. Pathetic. The jealousy just SEEPS out of him. Sorry, but, unless you come out THEN... You lying. Period. So this guy can FO.
But you'll believe a bunch of bullshit about a cabal of pedophile. Cool cool
Completely 💯 agree!!!!!! Absolutely
The thing is… as Jimmy states here… he and others have had concerns for a while. We have the ability to think critically, however, many don’t fully develop this skill because it’s easier to just go with the flow; adapting alongside others ensures community and we are very social beings. So it’s not about avoiding the internet. Plus- mob mentality, groupthink, and echo chambers originated LONG before the internet.
What this comes down to is active listening and general awareness of your own and others’ biases. Something someone tells you sounds a bit odd? Question it! Learn something that supports your views? Question that too! Obviously we can’t look into everything we hear or discuss… but if there is something you care about deeply or have a role in, do your due diligence.
Thank you for sharing your side and always being willing to put your name on what you say.
Jimmy, We would like to use a few clips from this video with a big thank you and a credit and link to your channel. Would this be ok? We are airing a livestream tonight. -Lauren
16:30 it’s called entrapment. US citizens going to “find” traffickers and in turn created some.
Don't forget about the kids in the United States, it's not just other countries but in the United States too.
I have a big problem with the timing of these allegations.
Yup that’s what I was thinking 🤔
Why, bc Tim was about to swindle his way into politics and run for senate?
This story is a warning that reinforces the saying: power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. You start bending your rules/morals because power/wealth/access acts like a drug.
By far the best comment I’ve read by anyone (from cringe blind Ballard defenders to foaming at the mouth raging anti-Mormon haters) on this subject. What you wrote is truly the lesson to be learned by all of this.
@@juxtaposition7904 extremists on both sides are the problem with society/culture right now. We all need to be reasonable with eachother and get the emotions out of the conversation. If we all agree to seek the truth together we can all find it and learn something about ourselves/others along the way. I think Tim Ballard’s story will be an unfortunate cautionary. SEEK TRUTH.
@@daveodell6076 Agreed.
A lot of gangs and cartel members actually have alters asking for protection against getting killed. You can look around and see prayers at alters with prayer cards and candles and they give thanks to Santa Muerta. Jesus Malverde is also used by cartels like a Robin Hood figure for them. And they use tweety bird or a yellow bird as symbolism like the cat is the law that pursues the yellow bird. So tweety bird is popular. You will see keychains and charms you can carry with you.
And many cartel guys carry these prayer cards or symbols or wear shirts or colors to symbolize these people and things. Jesus Malverde is often depicted as saint San Simon wearing a suit and holding a money bag. San Toribo is the patron saint of undocumented immigrants. Many say he appeared to them and saved them from death. You can see prayer cards in gangs wallets on they will wear a tee shirt with these saints on them and they love candles.
Tim and the people with them would have been more convincing wearing a tee shirt with Jesus Malverde as Saint San Simon or having a prayer card on them or having a tweety bird tattoo. Or having even a prayer card tattoo. Not all the idiotic ones he chose.
He could have had “Callate la Boca” tatted on him which means shut your mouth and they use candles with that meaning stop talking, just like we down in my state use vadoun/voodoo candles. We leave whisky and different gifts for the ones that help you. I would have laughed at his henna tattoos.
By the way we also have a whole lot of Spanish influence so we have people practicing the same religion and saints you see these drug cartels honoring. Catholicism is often used with voodoo and Santeria and Santa Muerta etc. and we combine tribal native indien with scared secret French prayers. My famille have traitueses and traituers which are Cadjin and indien healers and shamans that use sacred secret french prayers. We were called Spanish Louisiana before we were French Louisiana so I know a lot about this history. Plus I have many many friends from Mexico and South America.
The tapa Boca candle is what it is known as and you can find those in grocery stores. It means to cover your mouth. So many things he did were so outrageous and didn’t reflect the culture of the gangs or their culture. He would have been more believable actually knowing someone locally who could explain this to him.
Sexual assault is totally different to having affairs with women who adore you and throw themselves at you.
Thank you SO much for your honesty and integrity. May God keep you and all those you are concerned about Safe!
Tramping around poor countries inquiring "where can I buy kids?" And coming up empty handed at least half the time sounds like a huge waste of money, time and resources. It also sounds like the missions were creating a demand where there wasn’t one before.
he said that this may have happened in some cases, but not most of the time.
@@jaredite8388he said about half the time.
@@jaredite8388 he said at least half the time. That's outrageous
THEY HAVE TO SEE WHERE THE TRAFFICATORS ARE, IF THEY DONT GO TO PLACES TO SEE IF THERE ARE TRAFFICATORS, THEN PEOPLE Would 31:31 " ITCH,
PSYCHICS ARE AGAINST GOD, THAT IS SATAN RUN,,.
Thanks for sharing your experience and perspective. All pretty reasonable.
I’m sure getting this close to evil must open bad pathways. I pray for Tim Ballard and all participants in the OUR, as well as all the victims of human trafficking. 🙏
It’s amazing how anyone that seems to be bringing in money will bring out all these accusers that said nothing before. Follow the money.
@@bonnieoquinn8861 Where is it?
Amen
Tim Ballard/Sean Reyes are corrupt power-hungry men who thought they would escape accountability.
Tim is putting dent into their Billions of Dollars a year business. Not to mention the lives saved.
If what you are saying is true, then I feel awful for the people involved, including Tim. I have been to dark places in my life where I stopped and asked myself, "How did I get here?" I understand the slippery slope and people making awful, life-changing decisions. If Tim has done things that are wrong like adultery etc., there is no reason for us to throw the baby out with the bathwater. Sound of Freedom is a great movie, OUR is doing great things. I still stand with O.U.R. We can still continue to save women and children. Hopefully Tim and those involved can heal and grow and move on from this. So sad.
19:53 it's all over utube that Tim has been excommunicated from the Morman church. I found out about your podcast from Dr. John and Loren.
Sound of Freedom is totally fake. OUR does nothing.
@@karencollins2661 Yes, and everything you hear and see on the internet is true? So what does that have to do with anything I said? Absolutely nothing.
Well said. Name one occupation on the planet where adultery or fornication has not occurred from time to time.
Name one occupation where credit is not welcomed for work efforts.
Everyone's so ready to bash this guy while ignoring the base cause of his efforts as a deterrent against these insidious crimes.
@@nottthereyet4872 The women are claiming that Tim sexually abused them.
What is the base cause of his efforts? There is no evidence that he ever saved anyone. There is evidence that he and his wife desired to sell children.
At any time was there a conversation about seeking mental health for what was seen or done? I use to work with someone whose husband works for the FBI taking down child predators here in Utah. Long story short, because of what they see, she told me at that time the people doing this work are only allowed to see a certain amount of time or pictures, but they then have to go get therapy to keep them balanced and ok because it is horrible.
So that is why I wondered if that was ever a conversation and if not, maybe something for those in this industry to really consider going forward. It’s healthy to seek help. 19:37
You are 100% correct. HSI does the same. So it is strange that OUR does not have **something** similar.
Its more than healthy. Its the law to maintain your mental health
Don't give kids social media!!
This is very sad! Saving the children is the most IMPORTANT....
Generating a need for young sexual objectified children in a foreign country is not saving children.
Thank you for being so candid.
As always, thank you for your open candor.
Thank you Jimmy for this honest and open insight into the world of OUR and your experiences with Tim. As the founder and CEO of a nonprofit, Saving Lost Kids, I am asked weekly about the movie and about Tim. As someone in charge of an organization trying to do great things, my eyes were opened about how some support for the right reasons, some for wrong, and some who are unhealthy, if you don’t feed their narcissism. Your insights here are helpful to me and our organization, because it encourages us to keep our eyes on the prize, and be careful to not let evil or destructive people to restrict or destroy something beautiful that God has created. Thank you again. And thank you for giving of yourself and your safety for the welfare of children that you didn’t even know. I pray that someday we might be able to meet, as I’m sure you have many more nuggets of wisdom that can help our humble organization to continue to grow in a more beautiful way. Sincerest regards, Brian Callies - Saving Lost Kids.
Do you also operate in the US, saving kids that are being molested in the Mormon church, Catholic church and other religious organizations where by US law abuse is not required to be reported.
@bcallies7 @@ericnelson9100 No, he’s just a full of shit pastor opportunist.
I looked at your website and mission Brian Callies, and you fundraise off of big promises, little effort, and absolutely zero evidence of having any impact on the trafficking of children. You will have other people calling you out that have either been in actual facilities or have real experience with this kind of trauma and recovery. How many golf tournaments, banquets and special events did you hold and what was the ratio to children saved. Is it like one kid equal’s a big golf tournament? Get real, not fooling anyone with half a brain, access to the internet and 10 minutes.
Frenetic ramblings for his 15 minutes. No proof. No receipts of criminal illegal activities of Ballard.
Just clicks to build his channel. Pathetic
CEO OF non-profit!! ....SO! ...TELL ME!!

In the Bible, God prohibits channeling familiar spirits.
Thank you for being brave enough to speak to vice about your experience and being honest.
Thanks Jimmy for coming forward and sharing your experience.
Thank you thank you thank you for telling the truth. As a trafficking survivor trying to talk about the real problems here at home- literally in people’s homes- I’m so grateful.
This sounds like a large CYA ploy. Will the truth ever be known? How many narcissists are involved with this group?
Exactly what I was thinking...
I just saw the very convincing and heart wrenching statements of the women that accuse Tim Ballard. Thank you for your truth, experience, and insight. It helps me answer a lot of questions I didn’t even have. Boy, humans and their journeys are complicated and not so transparent. Your story wasn’t all over the place. I could follow easily. TY again.
Thx for your service!!
. I can tell you that it was painful to share the story, but thank you for your honesty. God bless you.
Please Jimmy use your platform to help protect kids in foster care here in the USA … teen girls being sold for sec is real and in the USA … teens in foster care are so so so vulnerable to people preying on them
And support Erin's Law which is federally funded under the general education budget in the US. Erin's Law is taught as part of the school safety program in 38 states but religious institutions need Erin's Law, as well.
Thank you for sharing this.
Thank you for sharing your story. ❤
Thank you for speaking.
the duality of an undercover lifestyle on one side and a church going man on the other becomes corrosive. I have a friend who worked undercover narco back in my home town. We were in the same ward he served in the bishopric. One Sunday morning we were in ward counsel and b4 the meeting started he says "wanna see what I bought last night?". It was a pic of a 1 gal ziploc bag of cocaine he bought in a truckstop men's room a few hours earlier. The constant back and forth living in two separate worlds took its toll on him and he eventually had to quit. I'm not totally surprised that there are some sus things going on with T Ballard, but it is interesting that this all comes out right at the zenith of the movie and its popularity and not a year ago.
Lynn Kenneth Packer has been reporting on this for years.
why would someone show you a bag of coke? did he think you didn't know what coke looks like? was an "undercover narc officer" trying to impress you with coke from a toilet? the story or your friend is weird 😄
What done in darkness always sees the light. All shall be revealed, the Bible promised.
@@phrogme2450 it took some time to reveal that the basis of Mormonism is a scam but i see your point... it's still silly though
Yes especially now that the movie has exposed so much that is happening with powerful elites in this country. Now that the movie has made a lot of money, those talking has increased. I say follow the money,even with the man that made this post. He seemed more impressed with his heroic involvement that genuine concern about Underground Railroad. I’m more concerned with those that can be bought.
Ive been so frustrated that no one knew the truth....I was losing my mind....finally...excellent video....thank you thank you thank you...
And you know for a fact what Jimmy is saying is the truth? What makes you say that? Can you confirm all his accounts that he spoke of?
@@llenhu7537 do your research... he is a snake...
The "couples ruse" sounds a lot like Joseph Smith reinstating polygamy to cover up his sexual predation.
Well, if there is one thing we all had to learn during the pandemic, it's that there is nothing on earth that can't be politicizes and/or monetized. AND some self declared vigilante super action heros are much more exciting than the people who do the real, hard and often boring work.🤷🏻♀️
Mmmm heres the thing, Tim Ballard is Not a marriage counselor. He never claimed to be someone perfect. His aim was to BRING HUMAN TRAFFICKING TO LIGHT. If he is an adulterer, well, may his consequences follow...But regardless, Tim Ballard brought human trafficking to light, And
Tim did a hell of a job doing that💪🏼💪🏾 I never looked at Tim like he's Jesus, so accept his imperfections, and accept yours as well 👍 He fulfilled his purpose 🤷🏽♂️
Now this guy wants to say something? We will always be around imperfect people. If cheating on his wife is true, I HOPE HE CHANGES THAT AND REPENTS.
For now, let's focus on saving people from being sex trafficked, That's what's more important than all this bull crap being talked about. #SameTeam
I don’t care if he was an adulterer.
If he assaulted women, that is one thing, but if it’s just over his sex life, that’s none of my business.
That’s what’s annoying about all of this. Save kids and stop acting like middle schoolers.
Well stated! 👌🏼👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Well said. I agree,
What if it's all a lie?
@@Princess__Buttercup no you Freaks. Tim's a con artist
Thank you for your honesty.
9 kids and a wife alone at home while Tim plays wealthy 1st class Cosplay "sex tourist" with his female operatives.
This was incredibly sane, and now everything makes sense. Thank you. I lived in Mexico. It didn't take long for me to notice that there were things going on there that I was not supposed to notice. Creeped me out. A missionary gf of mine who tried to protect children got chased all the way into the US. You can't take this on without taking on serious demons, and you'd better be ready for that.
What do you mean by demons?
@@ericnelson9100Demons. The gates of Hell are fully open and the demon spirits have found many willing human host. They are in every level of every society. Including inside every church and political office
@@ericnelson9100agreed. It’s bad people, making bad choices, doing bad things.
He's speaking metaphorically ffs 😅
@@ericnelson9100: I'd assume he's talking about agents of Satan.
As far as I know, being a cheater, doesn't count you out of saving kids
Props to speaking out Jimmy.
Finally got around to watching this. I briefly worked with OUR on the Children Need Families foundation project. I worked with Janet at the time and got to know OUR and their operations a little closer. Also had close friends work on the video production teams. After all this, I'm responding the same way you did earlier in this episode. I feel duped. And I think it hurts worse than I thought it would because I became a big believer in what we were doing. I wanted to save kids and fight traffickers. Thanks for sharing your story Jimmy. I can tell it's heartbreaking for you as well and that it's not easy to talk about.
Thank you for putting a few more pieces of the puzzle into place. Sometimes it is hard to hear the truth but the only way to get there is to see what the different players are doing.
What truths?
No receipts no documentation no proof of a single shred of criminal illegal activity. Just frenetic ramblings. Vice? Really?
Tryin to build his tiny channel is all I’m seeing.
@@teresabringas4839 There was an internal investigation within operation ur that lasted at least a year before they decided to fire him...
@@teresabringas4839That's my initial take away. Big topic. Big views.
I do want to thank you for posting this information. It takes a confident, brave, secure man to make this video. Thank you.
Thank you for the honest take. I have a question if you don't mind. Was it common knowledge at our that he made up the necklace story? That really hit hard me to learn how the little boy and his sister were never actually kidnapped or trafficked like he said in all his speeches. He always said he went on to rescue the sister, but she was never even missing or in trouble?
I have no idea sorry
I hate to admit it. When I first heard of Tim and his mission, I was stoked. That stuff is a big topic right now. When I heard he was LDS, my first thought was, man I hope this isnt a scam we need a W right now so badly in this world. The jury is still out, but, I will say this crap coming out is like OJ's bloody glove.
LDS was a question to me……
Bro…..study all the good the lds church does around the world, it’s mind boggling
Interesting analogy because the bloody glove didn't fit OJ and it gave reasonable doubt to the jury and the famous line: "If the glove don't fit--you must acquit!"
Same. We were all duped. But at least we are willing to be honest with ourselves
I disagree with being duped. If Tim is having affairs with adult women that should in no way discount that the work he is doing is catching peodphiles rescuing children that are being raped daily and for each one arrested, how many children are then saved from each one arrested before the next child was going to be sold and used. We don not have enough people saving the children..children that are being violently raped. Agents have watched thousands of hours of videos of children being raped..they HAVE the digital files, and one man who was recently arrested, his name is on public record, they have over 2,000 images of The kids, The U.S. Police force . The child Tim and his wife adopted were taken after the earthquake in Haiti when they were below five.
How about the house in America that is holding 100 kids? Are they really the parents, as reported, of all 100 kids?
Seems to me that if everyone really cared about saving children they wouldn’t be coming out of the woodwork to say look at how great I am but that Ballard is an awful man.
YES! And THANK YOU for starting the obvious!
I have a real life story which your truth applies to … this stuff happens ALL too often and I cannot see it as anything but gross, sickening apathy:
I was raised in a very dysfunctional, abusive environment. (I’m recovered from a majority of the traumas I experienced, I’m a productive citizen, respectful of law, morals and of others. I wanted to note this because I’m not looking for pity here 👍)
Here’s the problem:
AFTER I was an adult, it’s SHOCKING how many people (who were both childhood acquaintances and adults when I was a child) that have literally approached me and mindlessly asked, “We’re you abused when you were a kid?”
Caught off guard, I’d give some minimal affirmative response.
And they would respond with, “I kinda thought there were some bad things going on”.
**Now … What in the world am I even supposed to do with that?!?
I almost want to grill them - “WHY didn’t you help me?!?”
At the same time, I wanted to rip into them and ask why they were even telling me this now? I mean, am I supposed to count them as some kind of hero because though they didn’t do or say anything to help, HEY, at LEAST they were aware of my nightmare situation 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
It gets worse, even!! There have been adults (The literally PARENTS of childhood acquaintances that then tried to groom me to become part of their perverted, multi participant sex parties once they had confirmed I had been abused as a kid 🤮🤮🤮
OMG! I learned fast just how sick people in this world can be.
It’s enough to not look bit closer when you suspect, to not report what you become aware of … But to THEN try to manipulate a victim of abuse years later -- just sick!
As for the people who are now coming out with all these revelations about OUR and T Ballard …
I never believe until there’s plenty of irrefutable evidence. With as much deception and lies as there are these days, it’s so difficult to even know what can be counted as irrefutable because deceivers are masters at their trade.
But for all the years that OUR operated … for this guy’s statements that ‘he KNEW’ Tim ‘WAS’ having affairs, the fact that the Sound of Freedom movie was completed 5 years ago then bought and shelved to prevent it from coming out …. It’s not until it’s released that suddenly there’s a flood of ‘so-called’ heroes that have some deep, dark secrets to tell?
They’re going to have to do a LOT better!
I don’t want to be misunderstood - if Tim or ANYone is guilty of crimes, they need to be equally prosecuted and punished under the rule of law - NOT in the court of public opinion.
And if ANY of these people are lying in this mess, they should be punished under defamation laws, period.
The sad truth: nothing like this is EVER pursued to any level of completion.
Anyway, just wanted to share my perspective.
It happens to be December 25, so a MERRY CHRISTMAS to you and yours 🌹👍
Thank you for your honesty. God bless you. 🙏
You are a good person. Keep it up. God loves you and bless you.
We don't know if someone had an affair unless we were there. Character assignation is the devils game. There is an accuser of the brethren. Anger is a motivation to diss another. I am sad to pickup anger in this presentation.
I agree! He reminds me of a coattail rider.
You should be sadder about someone with a Messiah complex fooling and defrauding people and God knows what else. I don't get why people are so enthralled by Tim Ballard and ignore all the evidence that has come out against him by multiple sources and over a long period of time.
Thank you for your honesty! I appreciate it. I honestly believe it was a redirect out of the country. We need help here in the States!
Thanks for your insight. I appreciate your truth.
There’s no such thing as “your” truth. Truth is truth. You can’t use your own. You can have your own experience or opinion, but not truth.
@@pacificbeaches14 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 that's a great joke
thanks for letting us know
“We couldn’t find any kids being trafficked in more than half of the cities we’ve been to”
I think therein lies some of the problem with OUR and The Sound of Freedom. Trafficking usually doesn’t look like a cabal of men holding a stable of women.
I read an article on Rolling Stone where trafficking experts expressed their concerns with how the movie portrays trafficking because it’s not really how trafficking works, to your point.
It’s usually very small time and by a person who knows the victim. You’re not going to have luck wandering around random Mexican cities looking for a mob with connections. You’d need to find a guy controlling one neighbor girl, etc. Which isn’t economical for a task force. I think the whole model doesn’t really work.
Anyway that’s rambling a bit, but my .02
You never been in Cartagena Colombia?
Wow !!!
You really know eveyone in the whole of the USA and the rest of the world.😂😂and you know of the billions of people living there what each person is thinking and doing.
Superman 😂
And your sources are Rolling Stone? Lol… adorable
Thanks for the perspective Jimmy. Not many could do what you do and it takes guts to speak up, especially when trying to respect those involved. Keep shining that light man, you’re doing God’s work. 🙌🏼
Tum groomed adult woman to "roll play"... in this word "Tim broke up families!!"..
Not even.
No Jimmy decided to be part of the problem.
Exposing information that compromises ops.
This guy is so full of himself.
Detracting Ballard hurts the mission by ramblings, “I got to go meet so and so…” Name dropping. Proof of what? Illegal activities? He just rambles frenetically about ops.
Listen carefully this Jimmy wants his 15 minutes.
He talked more about hisself than facts to expose Tim. I think we are gullible to except everything he says.
@@teresabringas4839 well said. I saw that also!!
Excellent interview ❤❤❤
It’s too bad the prophets seers and revelators couldn’t foresee this coming 😢
🤣
They did. They did. They saw me coming for them from day 1.
Was the part about Nephi true?
Guaranteed, if they’d look here at home they’d find much more trafficking here in America.
Why so few "ops" in the US or even in Utah? And what about Reyes?
Thanks Jimmy! You're always honest and speak truth, no matter what!(let the consequence follow) Ironicly we're taught that as (LDS) youth but it's becoming a rarity today from any and all organizations. You're truly an example out there and I really appreciate you using your talents and platform to seek truth! Not just with this situation, but in everything you engage in. Thanks man!!!!
Help me to understand something. Didn’t you say that a couple months ago you made a post saying you didn't see or know of Tim doing anything wrong? But now you're claiming he had affairs? What evidence do you have to make you draw the conclusion that he's guilty of such a thing now? Because that's what's lacking with this entire thing--- evidence.
What we seem to have though are people who apparently had issues with Tim but have waited until now to voice them. You can at least understand why so many are skeptical since his detractors have waited until Sound of Freedom and political ambitions to surface to come out with all this.
I look forward to evidence. Because I'm tired of allegations, anonymous sources, poorly written statements, and a pathetic media. Evidence and facts matter.
I’ve personally spoken with the victims. 3 of them now. They are planning to come forward
But speaking with people isn't evidence. For example, someone me and my family know COMPLETELY fabricated falsehoods about us. Just because people spoke with that individual didn't make their claims about us true. Same thing applies here.
Wouldn't it be more accurate to say that you don't have evidence but that you find their stories believable (which also doesn't mean their claims are true)?
These are important distinctions because you are sharing what you portray as a lot of insider information. If you're not careful in how you frame things, you may lead people to believe you have access to hard evidence of Tim's guilt, when in fact you do not (if that's the case).
Again, big difference between having the evidence or having seen the evidence that proves it beyond doubt and simply believing what people say could be true.
When it comes to destroying someone's character (and in this case their family), I want evidence and facts proving their guilt. Not just unfounded claims. Which, unfortunately, is all we have so far.
Good point!…
The women didn't wait until Sound of Freedom was released to come forward. O.U.R began a misconduct investigation which led to Tim leaving O.U.R in June, which was before the movie was released!
@@nostoppingit7243 The script for Sound of Freedom was written in 2015. Filming finished in 2018. Angel Studios eventually got the rights and it was officially released in theaters July 4, 2023. The announcement and buildup for that release came long before the July release. So, let's not pretend that allegations and the internal investigation came outside the timeline of all that because it just isn't true.
Now, having said that, does it mean he's innocent? No. But it certainly doesn't discount the possibility of ulterior motives from the other side either either.
I wish it wasn't this way but, like you said, we almost need video or audio proof of Tim's alleged affairs before judging him on that, just like video proof of the girls before a raid can go gangbusters on the group. The women also had free agency to say no way & so (if true) it wasn't just him but maybe they felt like he swayed them into it. I hate to be skeptical, but I have to, after that false accuser of the Supreme Court Judge as he was being considered, it was all a ruse with millions of dollars behind it & the media loving to tell the fake details & in the end, nada. But, I do see a scenario where it could be true, so, we will wait to make any decision on it.
That is a wise position that too few people will take.
I’ve been looking into OUR stories thank you 🙏
All of it just hurts my heart. The whole subject is sad and scary and it hurts my heart. I’m grateful you are safe. ❤
Jimmy, it's clear there were often very good intentions. I wonder how you feel now about the involvement of laypeople in these jumps. Like you've said, multiple things can be true at the same time. You can be a very capable and intelligent person, but also not an expert in the field and not suitable to participate. You admit to significant gaps in training and understanding of trafficking, yet participated a dozen or so times. What would you tell someone else if they were facing similar opportunities to the ones you had? Learning what you've learned over the years, do you feel OUR either met or exceeded the professional and ethical duty of skills training required for these types of sensitive and potentially dangerous situations? If not, what should accountability look like?
"Experts" are often lacking in training and judgment as well. Experience is key, but don't assume someone is a better operator just because they are affiliated with a government. It is often not the case.
It wasn’t handled the right way. A lot of good was done but a lot wasn’t a net positive so I’d say the ops should definitely never be done again the way we did them
Jimmy thank you for sharing your experiences with us. You were able to bring forth these truths. You have helped me personally though my doubts etc. God bless you 🙏 please stay safe.,✨🩵
Bless you for coming forward with the truth
How do you know it’s the truth?
@@christiejohnston8538 he says he was a good friend of Tim Ballard's. He's getting a lot of retaliation for speaking out, so why would he say these things? Do you know that he's lying?
A word to the wise and cautionary tale. Our sin's will be shouted from the rooftops..
I’m sorry you experienced, witnessed evil face to face. it must have been surreal to be in the deep rabbit hole of evil. Beyond my mind can comprehend how big and how dark-evil child trafficking. I am sad the story of OUR is part of any kind of sexual harassment/abuse. If the allegations are true about Tim Ballard, we should put our arms around his children and wife. My prayers are for his family and for all women or men who have suffered from abuse. Let’s keep our attention on those who really deserve our breath and attention, the children.
Oh for crying out loud. The damn rabbit hole in in the community where you live, where I live .. it’s people who befriend and groom your family members. Not too different from how you have been groomed to desire to protect and support this conman Tim Ballard.
Take off the glasses, let go of the preconceived idea that this is a ‘dark and scary rabbit hole’ .. the darkness lives in the house on the hill!
Look at Ruby Franke and what she did to her kids! Human Trafficking exists right here.
Your bloodline js contaminated with demonia and hamblins. That is why you were told to think tim is a conman. Demonia owns u
Your point that the rabbit hole is right here couldn’t be more true. Thank you for your comment! ❤
His wife is just as guilty, she harrassed victims, that's witness tampering. She's no innocent babe in the woods; just as guilty as him and Sean Reyes. They all need to be imprisoned.

Thank you
Thank you for speaking out.
Power corrupts.
Why are you speaking now? Especially if you're still afraid of being identified. That's why only a few can do what Tim does. And if he did do anything inappropriate then have him on the show let him be accountable.. What you say is still very unclear. Trafficking is mostly done underground. If you hear from victims they are trafficked thru undergroud clubs, homes connected to other homes and buildings assocated to organised criminal departments etc. Tim had to be believable even if it made him sick which he him self had admitted to multiple times. But was it worth rescuing all these children and adults?. Plus remeber Tim lost everything to do this and put his life, and families life on the line.. I feel that it can't be so black and white to do what Tim is doing. Though it must be said that when you stand for a truth you must represent truth. And if Tim is using this non profit as a guise, then all I can say is that Tim needs to come clean and correct his ways and seek help. Very disappointed with both sides of the arguments. But no one is perfect.
Why is he speaking up? He said it in the 1st two sentences. And he is LEGIT the closest to the situation that actually did the right thing. The lds doesn't believe in psychics and for one that's a given that he stopped listening. God deals in truth. The proof is in the text messages and those that witnessed it. He's the closest to the truth that we are gonna get
¿Y los niños?
Todos los que están criticando a Tim ¿Ya han rescatado alguno?
Es muy fácil hablar desde un escritorio cómodamente sentado pero arriesgar la vida por salvar a un pequeño, no cualquiera.
Eso me convence más que cualquier palabrería vana.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks Jimmy this helps put this all into perspective. Life is grey. I believe Tim was initially good and still had good intentions but slowly let ego get in the way and justified slowly until he crossed the line if true.
I will admit my bias is with Tim.
I honestly don't know who is telling the truth.
Why is this guy more credible than Tim. Everything he is saying could be based in jealousy and naivete.
I have the names of at least 3 women that I’ve personally talked to. One still working for OUR. They are coming forward soon enough
@@mrjimmyrex And that is why I am waiting to see what comes of this.
Why now Jim? Why do you have courage all of a sudden? Everything you say is hear say!
You can have the power of discernment … and KKNOW… if you want !!!!! Tim is guilty
@@jeffreybernson7978 there are others who also with their power of discernment think that Tim is not guilty. I don't know either way, but I still don't think that we should pretend that none of the good never happened what Tim founded, even if human follies sometimes entered the mix.
He stared into the abyss and it gazed back. Fighting monsters can turn you into them. Now that’s an exaggeration but great men do have flaws.
Ok… Tim had affairs, if they were adults it’s a share responsibility, no one “breaks a marriage” if you cheat, no one “made you” do it, right? Just my two cents
Thank you for speaking your truth. ❤
This was interesting to hear about the dynamics of working with OUR. I heard you talk about affairs but I didn't hear anything about illegal activity by Tim. Is there something you know you're not saying?
Not illegal, unethical and immoral for sure. I’m not sure on legal tho, doesn’t seem like it
I appreciate the video and your insight. At the beginning you mentioned that you knew he was having full blown affairs. Then toward the end of the video you said that you never saw him do anything illegal or that would go against his integrity. Wouldn’t adultery go against his integrity?
@@chrislaird5329Correct. Within the last 2 weeks I learned of the affairs from personal conversations with the victims
@@mrjimmyrex.... Victims?? Were they raped??
We're they affairs or women on operations posing as his wife or girlfriend?
Thank you for being honest and exposing the monster that is Tim Ballard. It's really sad 'certain' people these days always side with the victimizers.
This man is more about self promotion than supposedly exposing Ballard.
Clueless people believe this total fiction this is the Elites trying to ruin this amazing man's reputation because they're scared sh less and know he's coming for them!!! These woman are schills nobody knows who they are who's the liar here? A man who's saved over 30,000 stolen for sex trafficking children as young as 5 years old or baseless accusations that anyone in his 2 groups would testify too WAKE UP AMERICA
Tim has been admitting that he had to act and do as the trafficers did to get in.
I learned a lot from your perspective and appreciate your thoughts.
I am grateful to you for helping other people & sometimes it takes a certain type of personality to do something like this. That type of personality is not bad, it can be good, but everything must be done in moderation.
I’m sad about Tim, but I also understand that he had one of those personalities & it appears he may have let himself get overly confident, perhaps even prideful. This is a tale as old as time & happens to many, if not most of us along life’s path.
I hope you find the right woman (if you haven’t already) and do good while remaining humble and always remembering that Satan can bring anyone down at anytime if that guard is dropped.We must always stay prayerful and humble; Christ is the only perfect one.
I don’t believe in channeling spirits, but I do think (if it’s important) that we may receive s visit from someone close, such as a deceased grandparent, etc., if necessary. I’m disappointed that Tim was using a psychic because that wasn’t appropriate, but if he was having affairs, that’s even worse..I’m going to pray for him because I’m no better than he is, nor am I better than anyone. But, we all need prayers and we can all repent because of our Savior, Jesus Christ who atoned for our sins if we’d but turn to Him and change, then walk with Him along life’s journey.
God bless you, Jimmy.
That's what undercover work is.
Thank you for being brave and sharing your story. It’s all coming out and we appreciate hearing your perspective. We believe you!
13:10 - “One of the arrests was an 8th Grade Sch Teacher who used her position to get these girls (aged 11 & 12) to go to a party. Next thing they knew they were being raped, drugged, told if they told anyone they would be killed… so that’s how trafficking works, it’s not like these girls are being held against their will 24/7! It’s not like it’s portrayed in the sound of freedom”.
Oh ok, that’s alright then! Said any normal decent parent!!!😳
I’m sure the Tim takedown has nothing to do w/ political affiliation.
The problem with Tim has been published but you chose not to read it Lynn Packer has been reporting about thus for years and Dr. John Dehlin among others vise has been a minor reporter .
35:00 sorry but you are pretty reckless with details and facts.
BEFORE Sound of Freedom, Angel Studios started years ago a PAY-IT-FORWARD model.
So people can help those who cannot afford to go see the movie (Theaters are so expensive!!).
So think about it, whether the customer goes to the Theater and buys a ticket or they go to Angel Studios online to get a "free" ticket, EITHER WAY, that ticket price💰 goes to the theater where the patron sees the movie. The theater either gets it from Angel Studios or the patron. What's shady about that? You didn't understand and spoke anyway, no investigation to see how it works, just shady marketing implication.😮
Kinda sloppy man. You make people look bad when you discuss ACCUSATIONS like
* Angel Studios
* Tim Ballard
* Andrew Tate (video of his doing what you said is OLD; it is visually apparent. Andrew even admits to being a knucklehead in years past but claims not for a while).
If stating something with stating all the facts, might vindicate someone, but leaving out some info can really hurt someone's reputation.
If you want to be taken seriously, do your homework, not just your opinion. People's lives hang in the balance. Defamation of character is a big deal to oh mighty God.
And childrens lives
Where are the 85,000 children missing in America who crossed the boarder?. Who has them?
Really she was 18? Then why was he worried about the Mexican authorities? Why didn't Paul want U.S authorities seeing the video? And why was the video scrubbed?
Thank you for being honest I was just listening to an audio radio broadcast with his wife and it sounds like she’s trying to save the dynasty or she’s completely brainwashed. There kids having to go through all this is tragic.
Dude. DECAF. Thanks for telling the truth.
As someone who’s also spent a great deal of time and money in the effort to protect children (and saw through Ballard’s bullshit immediately), you did the right thing.
Certainly we are all flawed. But there are a myriad of inconsistencies in Ballard’s yarns that led me to believe that his intent was significantly impure.
My son’s father is an operator. This is a very specific term, reserved wholly for military elite (e.g., Delta, DEVGRU, Recon). “Operatives” are CIA.
I noticed Ballard claimed to be ex CIA. Yeah, no. He was almost certainly your standard entry level DHS border agent. And that’s great. But having been surrounded by these men, I take issue with those who steal others’ valor.
Again, the kids thing is easy. Everyone gets stupid when the cause is children - as well they should. The problem is that scumbags are aware of this too. Ultimately, no, Ballard is not a Jerry Sandusky. But to exonerate him by such a low measure would be a grave injustice. Our kids deserve more than that.
What is your law enforcement background? Or do you work with local law enforcement to make these arrests? Just curious. No judgment
The life changing part was meeting famous people and getting accolades? Makes sense.
There are so many people doing great things who are not getting rich off it .. who are not celebrities .. these people are changing lives.
@bendryland7213. He does state that doesn't he? Hmmmm
Exactly! My opinion is that the Mormon church fosters this - men literally believe they’ll become gods in the afterlife. How can they not develop a god complex in day-to-day life?
@@nursekillm Exactly, spot on
Does ONE person here care what this guy thinks of actor, Jim C? What a nut!
Not sure how informed you actually are, the person who went to get two children and ended up adopting the entire family was not Tim, it was Mark Stott. Mark is a good friend of mine and a former business partner, and I know this to be a fact. Tim adopted two kids not four. That makes me question the validity of the rest of your podcast.
Love this thank you. ❤ I just saw that TIM has resigned from OUR. They put out a statement. It seems he is still in denial. TRUTH will set him free he must own his dark side!
Jimmy, We thank you again for this video. We would like to use some clips with credit and a link to your video. Would this be ok? We are airing a livestream tonight. -HTC
Go ahead
Thanks Jimmy, for your insight on this matter. I did operations with OUR from almost the beginning until sometime in 2018. I was on the big mission that was conducted in Columbia, that homeland security took credit for. During my time with OUR, things were ran differently. I noticed the changes that were starting to happen and I backed away. I cannot say that I saw Tim or anyone else do anything that was unethical but I can honestly say that I felt some changes were being made that didn’t sit well with me.
Go public. We need to hear the truth.
Did you do the Couples Rouse?
@@ericnelson9100 no, I didn’t. They hadn’t started doing that yet.
Complete horseshit a lies
I'd like to hear real, professionally trained individuals working with trafficed individuals to critique OUR. Sounds like new victims were being created. I have zero respect for a man that does a mission of this, all the while assaulting his women helpers. I have zero respect for any group of people that respect this evil person.
Your speach is so much about you, money and the good ole boys club.
Never heard of any of the names that were dropped in the beginning
Came from Hidden True Crime.
Thanks!
Too ironic that these accusations come about after the movie was released and after Tim announced he’s running for office.
I stand by Tim.
When Wikipedia is a bashing Tim, you know the accusations against him are lies. They want to silence him. He’s a threat. Wikipedia labeled him a Q-anon Conspiracy Theorist 😂
