Take us back to December fifth, two 30 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 2: thousand and five, when your humby ran over that ied 31 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 2: and and what you remember from that point to the 32 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 2: point you got out of your coma. 33 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, so I got you know, I was on a 34 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,320 Speaker 4: mission on Scout team. Man went on our way back 35 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 4: to pick up the stick in half. Well, we crossed 36 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 4: this creek and I went doing to meet they would 37 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 4: cross this creek to I feel an intense hate class 38 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 4: on my left side, and I was like, holy crap, 39 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 4: I just got hit. But you know, I get out 40 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 4: of the truck. But when I got out of the truck, 41 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 4: I was on fire from had to tow. But I 42 00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 4: knew there was that creek behind me, so I turned 43 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 4: to run to it, but the flames overtook me and 44 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 4: I collapsed. I'm thinking, well, this is it. There's it 45 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:30,079 Speaker 4: for me, and I'm just thinking to myself, like, man, 46 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 4: I broke my promise to my family, always come back. 47 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 4: I broke my promise to my son that I'll never 48 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 4: let him grow up without his bad like I did. 49 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 4: But most importantly, I don't break my promise to my 50 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 4: dad I made to him so many years ago that 51 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 4: I will always take care of my family. And then 52 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 4: when my teammate tells me, I DT and I can 53 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 4: die here, and we jumped into the creek and the 54 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 4: sound I heard those names sound you here, won't put 55 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 4: a hot pan of cold water, But instead of a pan, 56 00:02:54,800 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 4: it was my body. But my journey there because it 57 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:03,919 Speaker 4: was a plan ambush. As soon as I got hit, 58 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 4: my teammates are calling for help because I'm the guy 59 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 4: that calls them the airstrikes, you know, I'm that guy, 60 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 4: and they're like, we need close air support. And so 61 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 4: I had to figure out what to do. And because 62 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 4: I remember remembering that promise again to my dad, take 63 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 4: care of your family. Yes, that first started with my 64 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:26,640 Speaker 4: brother and sisters, but that started to evolved to my teammates. 65 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,799 Speaker 4: And my teammates are my brothers. I got to take 66 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 4: care of them. 67 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 2: So so here you are, I mean of your body burned. 68 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 2: Do you remember the level of pain or at that moment, 69 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 2: was adrenaline just taking over. 70 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 4: I think adrenaline was taking out because I didn't really guess. 71 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 4: My leg hurt a lot, but nothing big. It wasn't 72 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 4: until when that last transmission went out when I started 73 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 4: getting scared and starting had hard time breathing and I 74 00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 4: wanted to sleep. I was just tired, and I just 75 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 4: told him like, I told him, let me just fall asleep. 76 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 4: But he knew if he let me fall asleep on 77 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 4: their wake up then so he kept me up. He 78 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 4: he he knew what my spark was. I like to say, 79 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 4: we all have a spark, which is kind of around, 80 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 4: and here's here's a burned guy saying we all have 81 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 4: a spark, but we do. And he knew it was 82 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,839 Speaker 4: my son. So he used that to keep me awake 83 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 4: until him Ottervact came and I remember they wanted to 84 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 4: carry me into a helicopter. I was like, oh, hell no, 85 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 4: I walked into this fight, I'm gonna walk out of it. 86 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 4: So I walked. I got into helicopter. I remember the flight, 87 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:39,920 Speaker 4: Remember the lander in our forward operating base, and I'm 88 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 4: taking it to a little field hospital, the doctor cutting 89 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,679 Speaker 4: off my watch and tell him you're gonna be okay. 90 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 4: And that was December fourth, two thousand and five, and 91 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 4: wake up March of two thousand and six. 92 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 2: And it's amazing that you even remember all of that. 93 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 2: To me, I mean, that's that's pretty amazing when you 94 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 2: woke up, because again, I just happen to know a 95 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 2: lot about the treatment for burn victims because of what 96 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 2: my sister did. My sister could only do it for 97 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 2: a number of years, and it was emotionally so painful 98 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 2: because every day she'd go to work, she had to 99 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,839 Speaker 2: inflict pain on burn victims by taking off these bandages. 100 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,479 Speaker 2: And I'm sure you understand what that means. 101 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, most people don't realize that it ain't 102 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 4: to burns that kill us. It's the infection. So what 103 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 4: your sister did and what my nurse said, having to 104 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 4: change your your bands just constantly so you don't get 105 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 4: an affection, and not realizing that also when you're burned, 106 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 4: your skin becomes hyper sensitive. That's where you get all 107 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 4: that pain. 108 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:48,720 Speaker 2: Well, that's where all the nerves are right there. I mean, 109 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 2: it's like ripping it off, but this is eighty percent 110 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 2: of your body, including you know, your face. 111 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, but you know the one thing I you know, 112 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 4: I even gave, I gave. I always get praise to 113 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 4: my nurses that they were there because for me, nighttime 114 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 4: with the worst. For me, I hated the nighttime in 115 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 4: the ICU when I was finally awake. But I knew 116 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 4: if I had these two nurses, one with me Bonnie, 117 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:22,920 Speaker 4: the other one with named kim My, nights felt like 118 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 4: they were going to be okay. And I praise those 119 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 4: nurses that did that. You know, your sister may not 120 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:35,600 Speaker 4: know it, but patience, we remember our nurses that took 121 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 4: care of us and for that, you know, when they 122 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 4: were they're working nights, I knew I was gonna be okay. 123 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,360 Speaker 4: I never had the fears like am I going to 124 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:47,559 Speaker 4: wake up to the next morning because they are their angels, brothers, 125 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 4: they really are. 126 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 3: It's but you know, you're the one going through the pain. 127 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 2: And one other thing that she told me and you 128 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 2: have told me in the past, there's no amount of 129 00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,360 Speaker 2: pain medicine that makes it easier. 130 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:01,720 Speaker 3: It doesn't work at some point. 131 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, it does because eventually your body starts getting used 132 00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 4: to it, and you know, I don't do what they want. 133 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 4: You know, it's like, well, we've got to give the mobile. 134 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 4: We can't gill more. It's going to get addicted to it. 135 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 4: And so you have to eventually learn how to kind 136 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 4: of tolerate as much pain as you can possibly take 137 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 4: so you can get better and recover and get back 138 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 4: to into society or in my case, get back to 139 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 4: my boy. 140 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 2: And by the way, and I would say, through no 141 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 2: fault of the patients. You know, a lot of patients 142 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 2: come out of this addicted to pain medicine, and it's 143 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 2: not their fault. It's the only way that they could 144 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 2: cope with this never ending perpetual pain. 145 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 3: For in some cases that goes on for years. 146 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 4: It's very true. Yeah, a lot of guys would get addicted. 147 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 4: But for me, I knew I didn't want to get addicted. 148 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 4: So like I would, you can say, suck it up, 149 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 4: you know, the pain tolerated because I didn't want to 150 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 4: get addicted. I didn't want to be that guy that 151 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 4: you know was just you know, sitting in the couch, 152 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 4: just high and the kai and couldn't function without painlets 153 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 4: I didn't want to be that because I I wanted 154 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 4: to be an example to my son, just like my 155 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 4: dad was an example to me. That's what I wanted 156 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 4: to do. 157 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 2: One of the cool things we often promote Tunnel to 158 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 2: Towers and the Tunnel to Towers Foundation, and and everybody 159 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 2: here at Team Hannity, we've committed to eleven bucks a month. 160 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 2: I actually just give one donation a year and make 161 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 2: it easy.

Trust me, I 469 00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:13,879 Speaker 2: know that part too, which is the right thing to 470 00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:16,360 Speaker 2: do for any president. We've got to keep our president 471 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:20,639 Speaker 2: selected officials safe, regardless of party. Have said that, you know, 472 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 2: I've been consistent over the many many years I've been 473 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:29,200 Speaker 2: on radio on TV. After that, you are met by 474 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:32,399 Speaker 2: somebody from the White House at the guard gate on 475 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:35,440 Speaker 2: the other side. Now, first they go through your ID, 476 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 2: then they put you have to empty your pockets, just 477 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:40,440 Speaker 2: like you're getting on an airline, you know. You put 478 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 2: all your stuff in a one of those little boxes, 479 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:47,080 Speaker 2: those great boxes. They put it through and they look 480 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:49,959 Speaker 2: at everything in great detail. They pay a lot of attention. 481 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 2: I know because I watch them. Then on the other 482 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 2: side of it, you get wanded. And then after you 483 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,920 Speaker 2: get wanded, then the person that's there to escort you 484 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:01,200 Speaker 2: into the White House will escort you into the White House. 485 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 3: That's what you go through. 486 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:05,920 Speaker 5: Do they do that with Hunter Biden or is he exempt? 487 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 2: He might be exempt, He might be I don't know 488 00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 2: the full answer, but it's a great question. I'm assuming 489 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,280 Speaker 2: he's exempt. I'm assuming family members are exempted. As a 490 00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,600 Speaker 2: matter of fact, there is a back door or side 491 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:24,400 Speaker 2: door entrance into the White House. But even to get 492 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,520 Speaker 2: into that parking lot, which is sort of right between 493 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 2: the exec old Executive Office building and the White House, 494 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:31,640 Speaker 2: there's a parking lot. 495 00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 3: You have to be cleared to park there. I know 496 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 3: because I've parked there. 497 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 5: Well, if he's exempt, may well, let's say they even 498 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:42,080 Speaker 5: pat him down. What about the president? Because Hunter could 499 00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 5: put the stuff in his father's outside jacket. 500 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 2: Pocket and you know they don't pat you down, or 501 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 2: maybe throw it in a sox who knows, like Sandy 502 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 2: Berger throwing you know, National Archives records into his socks 503 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 2: and his underpants. 504 00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:57,879 Speaker 5: Well, I would say that's probably what happened. 505 00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:00,920 Speaker 2: I'd say a strong possibility, But you're not allowed to 506 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 2: say it. Got to keep that quiet, all right, Bruce, 507 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,680 Speaker 2: All the best out in Vegas. My friend eight hundred 508 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:09,960 Speaker 2: ninety four one Seawn our number this Friday, Chris Michigan, Chris, 509 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 2: how are you happy Friday? 510 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:11,240 Speaker 3: Sir? 511 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 6: Doing well? 512 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:13,840 Speaker 3: I about yourself, Sean, I'm good, thank you. 513 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 6: I just had a quick comment on the storyline of 514 00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:19,359 Speaker 6: the cocaine in the White House as well, and a 515 00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:23,200 Speaker 6: quick question. The quick comment is here, about two months 516 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:25,439 Speaker 6: here in northeast Michigan, a little city of like ten 517 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 6: thousand people, there was a small bagy of white powder 518 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:30,760 Speaker 6: found in front of the self checkout counter at our 519 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 6: Walmart supercenter. And with the amazing technology that Walmart has 520 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 6: in our Michigan State sleet and local shoes, they were 521 00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 6: able to find the person that lost that small baggy 522 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:45,920 Speaker 6: of cocaine, arrest him, in charge him. So my question 523 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 6: is is it reasonable to think that our Sheriff's Department 524 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 6: State please here in Michigan are better at doing their 525 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:55,480 Speaker 6: investigative job than our secret services. 526 00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 2: You will never convince me that they couldn't get to 527 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:01,159 Speaker 2: the bottom of this, never, because they have They have 528 00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:04,320 Speaker 2: video footage of everybody that goes into the West Wing. 529 00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 2: So we know they don't have cameras all over the 530 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:11,239 Speaker 2: West Wing, but they have cameras of everybody going in. Now, 531 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:15,119 Speaker 2: if I was leading that investigation, I'd identify every single 532 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:19,159 Speaker 2: solitary person that entered in the days leading up to 533 00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 2: or the days there and or just figure out the 534 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:25,520 Speaker 2: time stamp on when the person put apparently they locked 535 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,919 Speaker 2: lost the key to the locker, but I would certainly 536 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:30,879 Speaker 2: bring in a locksmith and open it up. 537 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:31,520 Speaker 6: Uh. 538 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 2: But you could literally find out who had that that 539 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:36,160 Speaker 2: particular locker. And there's your answer. 540 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:37,720 Speaker 6: Well, I would have to believe that they would have 541 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:40,000 Speaker 6: to have some kind of video fur balance around those 542 00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 6: locked boxes for the simple purpose of security. Don't know 543 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,400 Speaker 6: what's going in them. And surely those cameras are better 544 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:46,680 Speaker 6: than what we have in our wallets. 545 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 3: Listen, I I am over my properties that I own. 546 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:52,320 Speaker 1: Uh. 547 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:54,720 Speaker 3: Because I have a place down in Florida. 548 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:57,480 Speaker 2: Let me tell you right now, I have cameras everywhere, 549 00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:02,959 Speaker 2: and they've now become very inexpensive. The average homeowner can 550 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 2: afford them, and it's high quality. It'll alert your phone 551 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:09,080 Speaker 2: to any movement, anybody at your front door, anybody at 552 00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 2: your back door, whatever you put the cameras. So that 553 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 2: technology is so widespread, I can only imagine they have 554 00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:18,280 Speaker 2: the best and most sophisticated technology that is on the market. 555 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 3: That's what I would imagine. 556 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:22,159 Speaker 6: I would imagine the same. It's the scary thing to 557 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:24,399 Speaker 6: me is as I've heard many people comment, including to 558 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:26,800 Speaker 6: you on your show, is what kind of message does 559 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:31,000 Speaker 6: this send bad actors or everybody in the world watching 560 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,960 Speaker 6: if they can't figure out who took drugs into the 561 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 6: White House. 562 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:37,960 Speaker 2: Hey, listen, when I when I do town halls, and 563 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:41,240 Speaker 2: in these town halls, you know, we have a couple, 564 00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 2: you know, many of them. There's over one thousand people 565 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:47,240 Speaker 2: in some cases three four five thousand people when we 566 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 2: when we do those, everyone has to go through a 567 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 2: metal detector. Everybody, everybody, you know. And it's not that 568 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:55,560 Speaker 2: I feel bad for the people that have to go 569 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 2: through it. I know it's it's it's time consuming. We 570 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 2: try to get enough of them there and enough people 571 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:03,800 Speaker 2: working the line so we can move it along expeditiously 572 00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:08,360 Speaker 2: and not inconvenience people. But it just has to be done, 573 00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 2: especially if you're dealing with a former president or a 574 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 2: presidential candidate. 575 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 3: You can't you know, that's just due diligence. 576 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 4: Oh. 577 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:19,000 Speaker 6: Absolutely, security should be paramount. But the reason they shut 578 00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:23,160 Speaker 6: the White House done was they thought possible antrax. Metal 579 00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 6: detectors aren't going to catch that either, So it's still 580 00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:28,880 Speaker 6: sending a horrible message that somebody could walk in with 581 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:32,640 Speaker 6: some kind of contaminant drugs, whatever it may be, and. 582 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 2: If they wanted to find the person, they would find 583 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:39,160 Speaker 2: the person. It's that simple, exactly. 584 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:41,320 Speaker 6: Right, even if they just I mean, my personal thing is, 585 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:45,120 Speaker 6: even if they took some you know, new person, new 586 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 6: lower executive person in there and just pined it on 587 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:50,720 Speaker 6: them just to have a face, I'd feel better knowing 588 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 6: that the White House security caught somebody, even if it 589 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 6: was a lie. To me, I'd feel better that they 590 00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 6: caught somebody because they were able to use the technology 591 00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 6: that's in there and all the investigative techniques that they have. 592 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:04,480 Speaker 6: I feel better personally if they put a name to 593 00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:06,560 Speaker 6: it rather than saying we don't know, because we don't know. 594 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 6: Scares the hell out of me. In the White House, it. 595 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:10,640 Speaker 2: Scares the hell out of me. And we've got to 596 00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:14,360 Speaker 2: protect our institutions. That includes our White House, that includes 597 00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 2: our capital, our elected officials, all of them. And we 598 00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 2: have the means of doing it if we want to. 599 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:24,640 Speaker 2: That's that's just simple.
