WEBVTT - O'Reilly on the Commie Corner 0:00:11.200 --> 0:00:14.840 Hey, it's Mark Simone here for Sean Hannity with us 0:00:14.880 --> 0:00:19.040 right now. The great number one TV anchor, best selling 0:00:19.160 --> 0:00:23.000 author Bill O'Reilly has a new podcast called We'll Do 0:00:23.079 --> 0:00:25.680 It Live. You should watch it. Some great guests and 0:00:25.920 --> 0:00:29.160 check out his YouTube channel Bill O'Reilly on YouTube. Some 0:00:29.240 --> 0:00:31.360 really good stuff there, and of course the regular show 0:00:31.400 --> 0:00:34.120 and the column. You get everything at Bill O'Reilly dot 0:00:34.159 --> 0:00:36.400 com and then the link to everything there Bill O'Reilly 0:00:36.479 --> 0:00:38.720 dot com. Bill O'Reilly, how you doing? 0:00:39.040 --> 0:00:39.199 You know? 0:00:39.280 --> 0:00:41.559 I think I just saw a Hannity float by in 0:00:41.600 --> 0:00:43.280 the Atlantic Ocean on a rat. 0:00:43.880 --> 0:00:47.640 Well, he's trying to get away from what happened. You know, 0:00:47.720 --> 0:00:50.479 last night we had these primaries in New York and 0:00:50.520 --> 0:00:56.440 our crazy Kami mayor everybody endorsed one. All these crazy democrats, socialists. 0:00:56.760 --> 0:00:59.600 They're calling it the hate slate, the Commy Corridor. What 0:00:59.760 --> 0:01:01.080 is going on here in New York. 0:01:02.160 --> 0:01:06.119 Well, it's a very interesting political story, and no doubt 0:01:06.160 --> 0:01:11.319 about that, Mark, and thanks for having me on. I 0:01:11.440 --> 0:01:13.920 picked up a couple of weeks ago, as you may know, 0:01:14.040 --> 0:01:16.920 I have a collection of historical stuff from all over 0:01:16.959 --> 0:01:22.720 the world, and I picked up Mao's Little Red Book, 0:01:24.480 --> 0:01:30.160 first edition, nineteen sixty six stamp from the immigration people 0:01:30.240 --> 0:01:33.240 in the United States saying you can sell us, but 0:01:33.319 --> 0:01:37.440 we don't endorse it. This is really a find and 0:01:37.880 --> 0:01:43.760 the book basically says, look, the communist movement is based 0:01:43.959 --> 0:01:47.920 on a few things, and we are seeing those things 0:01:47.960 --> 0:01:53.480 in New York City. The first one is seizing assets 0:01:54.000 --> 0:02:03.920 from the proletarian class and distributing them to the working people. 0:02:05.840 --> 0:02:11.320 And that means that what Mandanni is actively doing is 0:02:11.440 --> 0:02:14.799 he's making it impossible for Mark Simone to buy an 0:02:14.800 --> 0:02:20.320 apartment and fix the apartment and rent the apartment. So 0:02:20.480 --> 0:02:25.040 you cannot do that because of all the regulations. And 0:02:25.040 --> 0:02:29.600 Mandannie's goal is to have this city control all the housing. 0:02:30.120 --> 0:02:34.480 That's communism. So the three people that were elected yesterday 0:02:34.480 --> 0:02:37.440 in New York City will serve in the House of Representatives. 0:02:37.880 --> 0:02:41.959 Now there's about ten already in there that are communist people. 0:02:42.480 --> 0:02:46.120 They don't admit it. They all were socialists. We're democratic. 0:02:46.160 --> 0:02:49.959 Socialism had a bunch of garbage. I mean, they don't 0:02:50.040 --> 0:02:54.359 believe in private property, they want a wealth tax, they 0:02:54.360 --> 0:02:57.040 don't believe in punishing criminals at. 0:02:56.919 --> 0:02:59.840 All for whatever they do. 0:03:00.160 --> 0:03:05.320 They don't believe in any immigration reform, open border they want. 0:03:05.919 --> 0:03:09.880 These are communists. And what's interesting is the reason that's 0:03:09.880 --> 0:03:13.919 happened in New York City is half of the workforce 0:03:14.160 --> 0:03:20.360 in New York City half foreign born. And their values, 0:03:20.440 --> 0:03:23.720 I hate to say this, but it's absolutely true, are 0:03:23.919 --> 0:03:30.680 not the values of Indigenous Americans. So we embrace capitalism here, 0:03:30.960 --> 0:03:34.000 they don't. So when they get a guy like Mandani 0:03:34.040 --> 0:03:38.040 and his three acolytes that were elected yesterday to run 0:03:38.080 --> 0:03:40.880 in the primary, and that means they'll win in New York, Okay, 0:03:41.600 --> 0:03:46.520 they don't care whether there's asset seizure. These are the 0:03:46.560 --> 0:03:51.680 people that were born abroad. They just want things given 0:03:51.800 --> 0:03:55.520 to them. Not that they're lazy, and a lot of 0:03:55.600 --> 0:03:56.640 migrants are. 0:03:56.440 --> 0:03:59.320 Very very hard working people and have worked them. 0:03:59.600 --> 0:04:05.360 Way on their own. But there is a big segment 0:04:05.720 --> 0:04:10.440 of people who do not want to compete in American society. 0:04:10.640 --> 0:04:18.520 They don't want it. They want to be given housing, food, daycare, healthcare, 0:04:18.960 --> 0:04:21.839 on and on. And that's what these people promise. 0:04:23.040 --> 0:04:25.880 But you know, a guy like mom Donnie, highly educated, 0:04:26.279 --> 0:04:29.040 and we've run this experiment with the socialism about ten 0:04:29.080 --> 0:04:31.839 million times all over the world that fails every single time. 0:04:32.240 --> 0:04:34.640 So what are they just the greatest optimists in the world. 0:04:34.640 --> 0:04:36.120 I think maybe this time it'll work. 0:04:37.080 --> 0:04:44.359 No, it's power. So the easiest way to pain power 0:04:44.880 --> 0:04:48.720 in America at this point in history is to promise 0:04:48.839 --> 0:04:53.159 voters free stuff. There is no easier way to do 0:04:53.200 --> 0:04:57.800 it than that. You see in La San Francisco, Chicago, 0:04:57.960 --> 0:05:00.320 all the big urban centers where a lot of poor 0:05:00.360 --> 0:05:03.640 people have come and they can't afford to pay four 0:05:03.680 --> 0:05:09.440 thousand dollars a month for an apartment. And so Mandannie 0:05:09.480 --> 0:05:15.400 and his ILK they are aware that they can win 0:05:16.279 --> 0:05:19.760 by promising free stuff. Plus, I believe a guy like Mandannie, 0:05:19.760 --> 0:05:24.440 if you look at him and his point of view 0:05:24.480 --> 0:05:28.800 on crime, his hatred of Israel, he's a hardcore communist. 0:05:28.880 --> 0:05:31.640 He believes in the little Red Book that I'm holding 0:05:31.640 --> 0:05:32.640 in my hand right now. 0:05:34.040 --> 0:05:38.880 So this is New York, but we got all these 0:05:38.880 --> 0:05:41.040 craziesess you've got voted in. Last said, is this going 0:05:41.120 --> 0:05:45.120 to hurt the Democrat Party nationally? Is this going to 0:05:45.160 --> 0:05:47.400 spread and really do them in eventually? 0:05:48.320 --> 0:05:49.359 Yes, it will. 0:05:49.400 --> 0:05:53.279 That's an excellent question because the liberal wing of the 0:05:53.320 --> 0:05:59.640 Democratic Party, these are the Hollywood people, the industrialists, the 0:05:59.640 --> 0:06:03.200 people who run Disney, the people who run the network News. 0:06:03.800 --> 0:06:06.520 They don't want their ss SEZ. They don't want that, 0:06:07.240 --> 0:06:10.839 so there's a fissure. But in New York State, the 0:06:11.320 --> 0:06:15.240 migrant vote is now so overwhelming and there's no leadership 0:06:15.279 --> 0:06:19.000 at Albany. Hogel just okay, all of this stuff. She 0:06:19.120 --> 0:06:22.880 will do it before in November, she'll kind of dodge 0:06:22.880 --> 0:06:28.080 and weave. But once she wins, if she can be Blakeman, 0:06:29.040 --> 0:06:32.880 then it's the gates are open. Will give you, give you, 0:06:32.960 --> 0:06:35.880 give you, give you, give you. You know, look, New 0:06:35.960 --> 0:06:40.839 York State has fewer people than Florida, and we spend 0:06:40.880 --> 0:06:45.200 what five times as much per capita as citizen in 0:06:45.279 --> 0:06:48.599 New York and they do in Florida five times as much. 0:06:49.200 --> 0:06:50.800 So what do you think you're going to get? This 0:06:51.040 --> 0:06:56.360 is communism, That's what it is. And the media covers 0:06:56.440 --> 0:06:59.680 for it. So you'll never get anybody who just told 0:06:59.760 --> 0:07:05.640 you what I just said on CNN or ABC News. 0:07:05.720 --> 0:07:07.279 You'll never You'll never hear that. 0:07:07.720 --> 0:07:10.920 Yeah, I can't understand the media covering for Joe Biden, 0:07:11.000 --> 0:07:14.080 covering for Nancy Pelosi, but the fact that they would 0:07:14.120 --> 0:07:16.480 cover for this, they could have stopped this movement. And 0:07:16.520 --> 0:07:19.040 where were the leaders of the party. Schumer, Pelosi a 0:07:19.040 --> 0:07:22.600 few years ago, putting out this fire before it spread. 0:07:22.760 --> 0:07:23.800 Why didn't they do that? 0:07:24.600 --> 0:07:24.840 Well? 0:07:24.840 --> 0:07:28.400 Pelosi tried, and I'm not a big fan of hers. 0:07:28.960 --> 0:07:34.320 She tried. She warned everybody about the squad. She didn't 0:07:34.400 --> 0:07:36.880 like them at all. But she's out of it now. 0:07:37.280 --> 0:07:38.640 Schumer is Joe Biden. 0:07:39.520 --> 0:07:42.440 I mean that literally, he can he cannot speak. 0:07:42.480 --> 0:07:45.840 He has to read off piece of paper. Whatever you 0:07:45.840 --> 0:07:49.920 you could put on the paper. Joe Biden is a schmoll. 0:07:50.840 --> 0:07:55.920 You read it. Okay, He's gone, and Cortez knows she 0:07:55.960 --> 0:07:56.520 can beat him. 0:07:56.880 --> 0:08:00.360 She's next. And Cortez, with. 0:08:00.320 --> 0:08:03.000 All due respect, because I am not trying to injure 0:08:03.040 --> 0:08:07.000 her personally. She didn't know what communism is. She had 0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:11.440 no idea Stalin or Now or even Fidel shouldn't know. 0:08:12.440 --> 0:08:15.200 He knows is Bernie Sanders told her give as much 0:08:15.240 --> 0:08:18.600 stuff away as you can give who he knows. Can 0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:23.080 you imagine me sitting down with Alexandria Acassio Cortes for. 0:08:23.080 --> 0:08:24.000 An hour interview. 0:08:24.400 --> 0:08:26.960 We do the long form, now we'll do it live. 0:08:27.040 --> 0:08:28.600 Can you imagine me sitting with her? 0:08:30.000 --> 0:08:32.880 They used to agree to that stuff, remember you and 0:08:32.880 --> 0:08:35.080 Barney Frank. They used to agree to debate they don't 0:08:35.080 --> 0:08:35.760 do it anymore. 0:08:36.040 --> 0:08:41.160 But those are classic liberals. Frank's not a communist, and 0:08:41.480 --> 0:08:45.800 you know he's deceased, of course, but it would be 0:08:46.720 --> 0:08:49.480 And I wouldn't be mean to her. We both went 0:08:49.520 --> 0:08:54.680 to Boston University. She's a fellow Terrier. But do you 0:08:54.720 --> 0:09:00.720 think she could last three minutes in a debate with me? Now, Okay, 0:09:01.840 --> 0:09:05.960 I'm trying to sound arrogant. You can put forty five 0:09:06.080 --> 0:09:09.520 thousand people from the metropolitan area in the. 0:09:09.559 --> 0:09:11.680 Seat and it would be the same outcome. 0:09:12.840 --> 0:09:18.120 Oh anything, Congresswoman Cortees is not going to be able 0:09:18.160 --> 0:09:21.480 to debate them. She doesn't know anything. 0:09:22.240 --> 0:09:25.040 Yeah, it's hard for people to imagine that a bunch 0:09:25.120 --> 0:09:27.160 of people could come in and like radically shift the 0:09:27.200 --> 0:09:30.840 whole culture. But Bill O'Reilly, you just got back from England. 0:09:31.080 --> 0:09:33.160 Tell everybody how England is transformed. 0:09:33.920 --> 0:09:37.880 Well, that thing has falling apart because of the giveaways 0:09:39.040 --> 0:09:45.600 for medical care and housing. So they allowed millions and 0:09:45.880 --> 0:09:50.000 their population seventy million in the UK ours is three 0:09:50.000 --> 0:09:54.520 point fifty here. So the UK government and has never 0:09:54.559 --> 0:09:59.040 been explained why allowed millions. They don't even know how 0:09:59.080 --> 0:10:03.160 many millions because they don't even count them from North Africa, 0:10:03.280 --> 0:10:08.640 from the Middle East, from South Asia poured into England, 0:10:08.640 --> 0:10:12.320 Scotland and Wales and Northern Ireland poured in. As soon 0:10:12.360 --> 0:10:16.360 as they set foot on their soil, they get all 0:10:16.400 --> 0:10:22.040 the entitlements. So the British governments run out of money. 0:10:23.080 --> 0:10:27.040 They can't pay the healthcare for all of these migrants 0:10:27.080 --> 0:10:31.960 and their own citizens who were born there. They can't 0:10:31.960 --> 0:10:36.640 pay it. And once you can't pay it, your economy collapses. 0:10:37.360 --> 0:10:40.559 And that's what's happened there. So I'm doing a special 0:10:40.600 --> 0:10:42.360 for News Nation and coming up. I don't have a 0:10:42.440 --> 0:10:46.320 day yet called the Siege of London, because London's the 0:10:46.360 --> 0:10:51.160 worst over there. And I mean there are sixty Sharia 0:10:51.240 --> 0:10:56.640 courts scattered all through the UK, six to zero, so 0:10:56.760 --> 0:10:59.880 that the British government has said, no, we're not gonna win. 0:11:00.000 --> 0:11:01.960 You're not going to do the justice system anymore. You 0:11:02.040 --> 0:11:02.960 Muslims do it. 0:11:03.520 --> 0:11:04.720 How insane is that? 0:11:05.120 --> 0:11:07.320 And hey, tell everybody, when you went to England, you 0:11:07.320 --> 0:11:08.280 get off the plane. 0:11:08.679 --> 0:11:12.360 Yeah, So I'm in Ireland, which is not nearly as 0:11:12.400 --> 0:11:17.400 crazy as England, and I flew from Court to London, 0:11:17.480 --> 0:11:22.120 about an hour flight on aer Lingus and I get 0:11:22.120 --> 0:11:25.080 off the plane and usually when you get off a 0:11:25.120 --> 0:11:28.520 plane go into another country. Because Ireland is in an 0:11:28.520 --> 0:11:32.280 independent country, you have to go through customs and get 0:11:32.280 --> 0:11:37.040 your passport stamped. And no customs. 0:11:36.480 --> 0:11:38.680 Okay, yeah, nothing. 0:11:39.440 --> 0:11:43.280 And I walked from my plane gate aer Lingus to 0:11:43.320 --> 0:11:46.200 the parking lot where a guy goes, hey, you know 0:11:46.320 --> 0:11:48.760 my driver in eight minutes. 0:11:49.160 --> 0:11:51.080 And nobody asked you to see a passport or anything. 0:11:51.280 --> 0:11:55.640 No, no one knew I was in a country. And 0:11:56.000 --> 0:11:58.440 that went for all hundred, two hundred and fifty passengers 0:11:58.480 --> 0:12:03.520 on that plane. They walked into the country. Nothing, no 0:12:03.640 --> 0:12:04.719 scrutiny whatsoever. 0:12:05.240 --> 0:12:09.600 None, unbelievable. Hey, we're talking with Bill O'Reilly. Mark Simone 0:12:09.640 --> 0:12:11.839 here for Sean Hannity, and we'll continue in a moment 0:12:11.920 --> 0:12:16.040 on the Sean Hannity Show.

I don't think they're going to 0:12:52.040 --> 0:12:55.680 take the time to do something like that work against them. 0:12:56.120 --> 0:12:59.640 Although you might see some antifus and you know those people. 0:13:01.240 --> 0:13:04.800 G see one of the ANTIFA fanatics got one hundred 0:13:04.920 --> 0:13:09.040 years in the state of Texas action against the ICE 0:13:09.559 --> 0:13:11.920 agents just got sentenced yesterday. 0:13:12.480 --> 0:13:13.000 No, that's good. 0:13:13.000 --> 0:13:15.480 Those are the January sixth type sentences. I like those 0:13:15.559 --> 0:13:17.360 long sentences for these guys. 0:13:17.440 --> 0:13:20.319 Boy, they came down on eight guys. 0:13:20.720 --> 0:13:26.800 Eight antiefis went into Alvarado, Texas to attack ICE agents, 0:13:27.600 --> 0:13:29.959 and you know they caught them all because one cop 0:13:30.080 --> 0:13:34.600 was hurt and they all got forty years up in 0:13:34.800 --> 0:13:39.040 Texas penitentiary. And that's what we need to do that 0:13:39.320 --> 0:13:40.520 insurrection bill. 0:13:40.520 --> 0:13:42.280 O'Reilly, Hey, we don't have much time left. Tell me 0:13:42.280 --> 0:13:44.520 about Anthony Fauci. Are we going to end up seeing 0:13:44.559 --> 0:13:48.400 this guy finally get some what he deserves? Will justice 0:13:48.440 --> 0:13:50.120 catch up with Anthony Fauci? 0:13:50.880 --> 0:13:54.120 No, because he got a pardon from Biden Yeah. 0:13:53.880 --> 0:13:56.160 But I know that Trump people are looking at did 0:13:56.240 --> 0:13:57.960 Biden even sign it? Know about it? 0:13:59.320 --> 0:13:59.520 Nah? 0:13:59.640 --> 0:14:07.160 They the federal courts will never ever throw those pardons 0:14:07.160 --> 0:14:11.080 out because you know, it is way too much confliction 0:14:11.559 --> 0:14:14.480 in how they were made and all that. We all 0:14:14.520 --> 0:14:17.320 know that he didn't sign anything. He could barely find 0:14:17.360 --> 0:14:18.800 his way to the Oval office. 0:14:19.280 --> 0:14:22.359 We all know that. But the system is the system. 0:14:22.720 --> 0:14:27.200 But what Fauci will go through is an incredible damnation 0:14:28.520 --> 0:14:33.560 because Rand Paul is going to rip his throat out 0:14:32.120 --> 0:14:36.480 and Fauchi has to show up. He's under federal subpoena 0:14:37.760 --> 0:14:40.840 and if he lies, they could charge him with perjury. 0:14:40.920 --> 0:14:43.080 But when was the last time you heard anybody charge 0:14:43.080 --> 0:14:43.680 with perjury? 0:14:44.000 --> 0:14:44.280 Yeah? 0:14:44.840 --> 0:14:47.880 Well, I think they can already charge him, I just 0:14:47.880 --> 0:14:49.920 for that last round of testimony, but. 0:14:50.640 --> 0:14:52.360 They can't because Biden parted him. 0:14:52.440 --> 0:14:55.360 Yeah, well that would be great to see.

Tell everybody about it. 0:17:08.040 --> 0:17:11.439 Absolutely, thanks Mark. So I made a campaign promise that 0:17:11.480 --> 0:17:12.919 the first bill that we would do would be for 0:17:13.000 --> 0:17:16.240 gold Star families and for veterans, and our first quarter 0:17:16.320 --> 0:17:19.120 in office, that's what we focused on, and we introduced 0:17:19.160 --> 0:17:22.359 back in March the Honored gold Star Families Act, which 0:17:22.400 --> 0:17:24.760 proposed to increase the death gratuity that gets paid to 0:17:24.800 --> 0:17:27.919 a service member's family after that service member is killed 0:17:28.200 --> 0:17:30.439 from the current amount of one hundred thousand dollars to 0:17:30.440 --> 0:17:33.960 two hundred thousand dollars, provide an annual cost of living adjustment, 0:17:34.280 --> 0:17:37.560 and make it retroactive to January first to cover Operation 0:17:37.640 --> 0:17:41.680 Epic Fury. The bill has twenty one co sponsors, is 0:17:41.720 --> 0:17:45.040 a bipartisan bill with a Republican co lead a Democrat 0:17:45.080 --> 0:17:47.760 co lead. It's been endorsed by the American gold Star Mothers, 0:17:47.800 --> 0:17:51.359 the gold Star Wives, the Military Veterans' advocacy with Honor 0:17:51.480 --> 0:17:56.440 Source America, a number of other organizations, and I'm honored 0:17:56.840 --> 0:17:58.960 to be able to report to you, Mark that a 0:17:59.040 --> 0:18:02.080 couple of weeks ago, language from our bill made it 0:18:02.119 --> 0:18:05.960 into the National Defense Authorization Act and that's moving forward, 0:18:06.359 --> 0:18:09.119 and so I'm really excited about that. Is this is 0:18:09.119 --> 0:18:13.280 an important step for our gold Star families. The language 0:18:13.280 --> 0:18:16.680 in the nbaa slightly slightly different than our bill. We're 0:18:16.720 --> 0:18:20.160 still those core provisions of my legislation made it through 0:18:20.200 --> 0:18:23.200 the committee markup, and I'm honored by that. We're also 0:18:23.240 --> 0:18:25.920 going to continue to push the bill as a standalone bill, 0:18:26.480 --> 0:18:29.720 and I'm very grateful for all the work that went 0:18:29.760 --> 0:18:33.920 in by my team. It is now also by Cameron, 0:18:34.359 --> 0:18:36.840 and so I'm sharing that with you for the first time. 0:18:37.160 --> 0:18:37.600 Senator. 0:18:37.840 --> 0:18:39.880 He introduced it last week in the Senate. So we've 0:18:39.880 --> 0:18:41.200 got a lot of great momentum here. 0:18:41.440 --> 0:18:44.840 Yeah, you would think with something as a no brainer 0:18:44.920 --> 0:18:47.040 like this that there'd be no opposition and that you 0:18:47.040 --> 0:18:49.080 wouldn't have to push, But I guess you got to 0:18:49.119 --> 0:18:50.720 fight for everything in Congress, don't you. 0:18:51.280 --> 0:18:53.240 That's right, and you know this, with this bill, we 0:18:53.280 --> 0:18:55.879 have a solemn obligation to stand behind the families of 0:18:55.880 --> 0:18:59.119 service members who have given everything for our country. And 0:18:59.600 --> 0:19:02.320 this is not the despertunity has not been increased since 0:19:02.359 --> 0:19:05.440 two thousand and six, and so we're providing a cost 0:19:05.440 --> 0:19:09.560 of living adjustment. We're increasing that. That's the tax free 0:19:09.600 --> 0:19:12.480 money that goes to that family immediately after that first week, 0:19:12.520 --> 0:19:16.399 first couple of weeks after service members killed, and you know, 0:19:16.440 --> 0:19:18.840 they're going through the hardest thing in their lives, and 0:19:18.880 --> 0:19:21.240 we want to alleviate some of that stress from the 0:19:21.280 --> 0:19:25.040 financial burden part of that. It is straightforard. Your absolutely right, Mark, 0:19:25.240 --> 0:19:27.360 and we've got to continue to push to get this done. 0:19:27.680 --> 0:19:28.200 Yeah. 0:19:28.280 --> 0:19:30.639 Well, it's great work that you're doing. Now. If you 0:19:30.680 --> 0:19:34.000 watch Crazy MSNBC or something like that, I'll tell you 0:19:34.080 --> 0:19:37.280 the Republicans are all divided in the Civil War in 0:19:37.280 --> 0:19:40.080 the Congress. You're there, you're meeting with the GOP leaders. 0:19:40.320 --> 0:19:41.359 What's the real story. 0:19:41.640 --> 0:19:45.880 But listen, I have been so impressed by our freshman 0:19:45.960 --> 0:19:49.359 class and just being here for six months now. It 0:19:49.440 --> 0:19:53.679 is a great group of patriots, and we have amazing leadership, 0:19:54.119 --> 0:19:59.200 and we're fighting hard every single day and I could 0:19:59.280 --> 0:20:01.720 not be more proud this team and our our efforts. 0:20:01.880 --> 0:20:03.080 You know, Mark, you look at you look at the 0:20:03.119 --> 0:20:05.720 elections that happened in New York City last night, and 0:20:06.240 --> 0:20:10.359 I'd rather not, but yeah, well yeah, And you know, 0:20:10.400 --> 0:20:13.959 this is a this is a battle between between common 0:20:14.000 --> 0:20:17.040 sense Republicans and the and and Democrats that are just 0:20:17.119 --> 0:20:22.720 have this socialist, leftist, Marxist viewpoint. And in America two fifty, 0:20:22.760 --> 0:20:25.879 our two hundred and fiftieth anniversary, the greatest nation in 0:20:26.000 --> 0:20:28.719 the history of the world, we have we have a 0:20:28.760 --> 0:20:31.760 real fight right now between this common sense what Republicans 0:20:31.800 --> 0:20:35.159 are driving to help families, to drive down costs, to 0:20:35.240 --> 0:20:37.960 protect our country, secure our border, keep our border secure, 0:20:38.600 --> 0:20:43.800 and and we have these left crazy I mean, I 0:20:43.880 --> 0:20:46.679 just you know, I'm some of these candidates. It just 0:20:46.720 --> 0:20:49.520 baffles me. Mark. There's you know, one that used the 0:20:49.520 --> 0:20:52.240 American flag as a napkin. There's one that stopped going 0:20:52.240 --> 0:20:55.080 to church because Trump supporters were there. You know, There's 0:20:55.200 --> 0:20:57.440 there's one that refuses to stay the pledge of allegiance. 0:20:57.480 --> 0:21:00.360 Like there's a whole list of the things that they 0:21:00.400 --> 0:21:03.480 believe in, which is opposite of what our country is 0:21:03.520 --> 0:21:05.840 all about, what we fought for two hundred and fifty 0:21:05.880 --> 0:21:08.399 years as that shining city on a hill and we 0:21:08.480 --> 0:21:11.960 have got to have your listeners. We've got to have 0:21:12.400 --> 0:21:14.320 all of these folks come together for the in the 0:21:14.400 --> 0:21:18.879 behind the Republican Party and back Republican candidates so that 0:21:18.920 --> 0:21:21.639 we can keep this country the greatest country in the world. 0:21:21.920 --> 0:21:25.040 Wow, when you saw some of those some of those 0:21:25.080 --> 0:21:28.560 wackos last night that could be in Congress, are they 0:21:28.560 --> 0:21:29.440 going to fit in there? 0:21:29.960 --> 0:21:32.000 I mean I would I would say no. I mean 0:21:33.440 --> 0:21:35.399 it's I mean some of the you know, some of 0:21:35.400 --> 0:21:37.720 the backgrounds, some of the things that they're they're advocating for. 0:21:37.880 --> 0:21:40.800 I mean, just have have no business in not just 0:21:40.800 --> 0:21:43.879 in Congress, but in the fabric of America. I mean, 0:21:43.880 --> 0:21:48.960 these are these are failed policies, failed ideology that the 0:21:49.000 --> 0:21:52.680 world is has said no to. You know, you look 0:21:52.680 --> 0:21:55.880 at the socialist, Marxist philosophies that some of these people 0:21:55.960 --> 0:22:00.199 are are bringing, and it is opposite to the the 0:22:00.240 --> 0:22:04.920 core tenants of America. It will only cause greater harm 0:22:04.960 --> 0:22:07.320 for families. It will only make us weaker, and that's 0:22:07.440 --> 0:22:09.560 not what we can have. We've got to have the 0:22:09.600 --> 0:22:14.080 strongest country to lift up our families, to protect our citizens, 0:22:14.119 --> 0:22:15.159 and that's what we've got to do. 0:22:15.560 --> 0:22:19.320 Yeah. Hey, so President Trump tell us about any interactions 0:22:19.359 --> 0:22:22.119 you had with him or how his leadership is affecting 0:22:22.160 --> 0:22:23.120 the Congress right now. 0:22:23.280 --> 0:22:25.440 Well, well, let me let me go back a couple 0:22:25.520 --> 0:22:28.280 of you know, as a brand new guy, I had 0:22:28.480 --> 0:22:31.960 an opportunity to fly an Air Force one President and 0:22:32.320 --> 0:22:34.240 that was that was a pretty special moment for me. 0:22:34.680 --> 0:22:37.480 It was during the the Memphis Safe passport so not 0:22:37.640 --> 0:22:40.240 in district for me, but I've been talking about I 0:22:40.680 --> 0:22:43.879 sit on Homeland Security and I've been talking about the 0:22:43.920 --> 0:22:47.760 Memphis Safe Passporce as a great example of the President's 0:22:47.800 --> 0:22:51.400 leadership of Governor Lee and Tennessee, of his leadership them 0:22:51.440 --> 0:22:55.520 working together to reduce crime across all metrics in Memphis, 0:22:55.560 --> 0:22:59.880 to make that city safe and more prosperous. And it's 0:22:59.880 --> 0:23:02.399 a great outcome that can serve as a template for 0:23:02.440 --> 0:23:05.160 the rest of the country. I got to go to 0:23:05.160 --> 0:23:06.879 see the event that the President did a couple of 0:23:06.880 --> 0:23:11.000 months ago, and it was remarkable supporting all of our 0:23:11.040 --> 0:23:14.840 law enforcement first responders. And after that event, I got 0:23:14.840 --> 0:23:17.000 to be on Air Force one with the President and 0:23:17.200 --> 0:23:20.959 fly back to DC. And you know, Mark, I've had 0:23:21.000 --> 0:23:22.800 a number of phone calls with him, and you know 0:23:22.840 --> 0:23:24.720 that got to be on air Force one, which was 0:23:25.160 --> 0:23:28.600 a really fun moment for me, and he just he 0:23:28.680 --> 0:23:33.119 always asked about my family, how we're doing, and is 0:23:33.880 --> 0:23:38.280 so supportive and it is just a phenomenal leader. 0:23:38.520 --> 0:23:41.520 Now, well, that's great to hear. Hey, tell us what 0:23:41.880 --> 0:23:44.840 this can't be. This can't be American tax money to 0:23:44.960 --> 0:23:46.840 the Taliban. Tell me that's not true. 0:23:47.200 --> 0:23:49.520 So the House plans, as you know, I think, to 0:23:49.600 --> 0:23:52.480
