1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,239 Speaker 1: I News rounded up information overload our day. Forty five 2 00:00:03,279 --> 00:00:06,880 Speaker 1: Americans abandoned by Joe Biden behind enemy lines. What an 3 00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:10,840 Speaker 1: interview we just had with the sellers Stu and Kathy 4 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:14,440 Speaker 1: and their son, Lieutenant Colonel Stewart Scheller, who said, this 5 00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:17,160 Speaker 1: is a disgrace what we've done in Afghanistan. Now he's 6 00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:19,479 Speaker 1: in the brig and they can't even contact their own son. 7 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:23,599 Speaker 1: Will continue to follow that story. You know, one of 8 00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:27,840 Speaker 1: the dumbest people involved in this disaster, and it is 9 00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:32,240 Speaker 1: an unmitigated disaster, has been Secretary of State Tony Blinkett. 10 00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:35,680 Speaker 1: I mean you think back. You know, we've got this 11 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:39,360 Speaker 1: artificial deadline they're they're adhering to. Now. The Trump plan 12 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:43,479 Speaker 1: included never giving up Bagram Air Base. It included that 13 00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:47,519 Speaker 1: they would again obliterate the Taliban if they didn't follow 14 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:52,519 Speaker 1: every dotted, eye, cross tea, comma, and period. They were 15 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:56,120 Speaker 1: told over and over again directly by Donald Trump, I 16 00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 1: will obliterate you like I did the Caliphate, like I 17 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:03,240 Speaker 1: did Solo, like I did Baghdaddy and associates and the 18 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:07,080 Speaker 1: al Qaida leader in Yemen. Do you understand me? So Ever, 19 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 1: before they even did a deal, he made it very 20 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 1: clear that they would be consequences if they didn't abide 21 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:17,479 Speaker 1: by any agreement. Also, the conditions on the ground would 22 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:23,039 Speaker 1: dictate the time and place of withdrawal under President Trump, 23 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 1: and he since told me that he probably was going 24 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 1: to keep troops on the ground anyway. On top of 25 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:30,199 Speaker 1: all of that, the last people that should be leaving 26 00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 1: are the troops. So Joe Biden thirteen days, you know, 27 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:38,559 Speaker 1: speaks before he abandons. Everybody tells George Stephanopolis, we played 28 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 1: it earlier in the show, that he wouldn't abandon people. 29 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:44,679 Speaker 1: And so we leave hundreds of Americans behind, then their families, 30 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 1: and thousands of Green card holders, people eligible to live 31 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 1: in the United States now, and then tens of thousands 32 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 1: of Afghan allies, and we now see you know the 33 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 1: result of that, and that is that they're being killed. 34 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 1: And then of course you get the geniuses over at 35 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 1: the State Department. You know, we have you know, we 36 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 1: have retired Navy seals, we have retired special ops, people 37 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 1: that have been willing to go on their own and 38 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 1: risk their lives to save Americans. Once Joe abandoned them. 39 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 1: Then you have generous Americans that have provided chartered aircraft 40 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:26,359 Speaker 1: for example, at Masuri Sharif Airport, and the State Department says, well, 41 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 1: if you don't un the proper paperwork, you'll have to 42 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: get it from another country because the State Department office 43 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 1: in Kabbo has been closed. Well that's the whole point, 44 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 1: you jackass, is that if it's closed, they can't leave 45 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 1: Afghanistan to get the paperwork that's necessary for them to 46 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,360 Speaker 1: even have a shot of getting out of Afghanistan. And 47 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 1: then they're telling the chartered planes, well, you know, you 48 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 1: can leave if you get a third party country to 49 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 1: accept your chartered flight, but you can't land in America. 50 00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 1: I'm like, what if it has American citizens on board, 51 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: they can't land in America. The same people that you 52 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: know just let in a million and a half plus 53 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:11,079 Speaker 1: people in the course of the last year and literally 54 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 1: processed them and aided and embedded in their law breaking 55 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 1: at our southern border. You just can't make this up. 56 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:19,399 Speaker 1: And then they even went as far as to say, 57 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: and if you do get a third party country to 58 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 1: accept the charter flight out of Afghanistan and you're able 59 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 1: to take off safely and land, and they you know, 60 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 1: that's fine, But if they need our permission, it will 61 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 1: not be forthcoming. That is full and complete abandonment. Now 62 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 1: we have a Republican congressman. His name is Ralph Norman, 63 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 1: is from South Carolina, their fifth district. He introduced articles 64 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 1: of impeachment for Secretary Blincoln over his handling of the 65 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 1: Afghanistan withdrawal. Congressman, welcome to the program. I don't think 66 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 1: I've ever heard such ignorance and stupidity in my life 67 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: coming from our own state department. And to this day, 68 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 1: we still don't have an accurate number of Americans trapped 69 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 1: behind enemy lines that are hostage to the Taliban. Exactly right, Sean, 70 00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 1: and uh, you know, Blincoln is just one of a 71 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 1: lineup of this administration's choice. It should be impeached or 72 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 1: shouldn't have the dignity and the decency to reside. I 73 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: wish your listeners could have been in an Intel meeting 74 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 1: when Lincoln was part of a group merely all stun 75 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 1: and others who you would ask them questions. And you know, 76 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 1: how many Americans left over there? We don't know how many? 77 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,480 Speaker 1: What type of what's the dollar amount on the arms 78 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,599 Speaker 1: left over there? We don't know? And you know it's 79 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: it's an embarrassment, and you've got to say that it's intentional. 80 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 1: There's no way you can be this ignorant and this 81 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 1: callous to do what they're doing. And Blincoln is just 82 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:02,279 Speaker 1: one of them who and I'm sure you know then 83 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 1: I going to listen to us on resigning and then 84 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 1: they'll bottleneck the Processum, Jerry Nadler is not going to 85 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 1: get anything through judiciary that has to do with holding 86 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:15,920 Speaker 1: any of these people accountable by you know, taking them out. 87 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:19,599 Speaker 1: But you know it's a tragedy and it's, um, something 88 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 1: shouldn't happen. So tell me how you go about the 89 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,679 Speaker 1: impeachment of Tony Blinkott And have you gotten any support 90 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 1: with your colleagues. We've got twenty two that have signed on. 91 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 1: We've drafted the impeachment. Doctor Harris and I were the 92 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 1: ones that first started this off and we kind of 93 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: picked I mean, it's kind of a pick your favorite 94 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,919 Speaker 1: person to day that's incompetent, and uh, you know it 95 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:48,480 Speaker 1: goes through the process, should go through judiciary, it won't. 96 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 1: It'll be sidetracked like everything else is in this administration. 97 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 1: So um, but we've we've got it filed and we'll 98 00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:00,080 Speaker 1: wait till something develops on it. But it's a This 99 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: administration is in eight months, has done more to damage 100 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: this country than any administration in my lifetime, not even close. Well, 101 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,360 Speaker 1: what part of South Carolina do you represent? I took 102 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: mc Mulvaaney's place when he went to omb under President 103 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 1: Trump's fifth district, adjacent to Charlotte Great District, and it's 104 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 1: a conservative district getting conservative after more conservative after what 105 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 1: we're facing now. Did you watch any of the hearings 106 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 1: today with Million Company, and what were your thoughts? If 107 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:35,159 Speaker 1: you did, you know, Sean, I did, and I can't 108 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 1: listen to words anymore. It's the actions that speak so loud. 109 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:43,360 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, think about it. And I heard 110 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 1: your previous guests. I mean the minute they withdrew, they 111 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 1: blamed Trump's agreement, and then they blamed Bafghan's quitting. Then 112 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:55,359 Speaker 1: they blamed you know, who knows what. And I just 113 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: can't listen to him anymore. That's why a group walked 114 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 1: out of the last Intel meeting that I couldn't go to. 115 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,839 Speaker 1: They just said we had it and so their words 116 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 1: had no meaning and it's just uh, you know, when 117 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 1: they asked that the part I turned on is when 118 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 1: I think Millie was asked, was the book that Woodwood 119 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 1: wrote truth? He said, I hadn't read it. Well, I 120 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 1: mean this song and dance we've heard and but I 121 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 1: watched bits and pieces. But it's hard with the when 122 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 1: you see the effects on the American people that are 123 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 1: now taking place, particularly marine that the you know, put 124 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 1: in jail, the fifty seven, that with the riots that 125 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 1: are held in jail without a trial, that we don't 126 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 1: know where they are. I mean, it just goes on 127 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 1: and on. You can't think this stuff up. You really can't. Well, 128 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,559 Speaker 1: we support your efforts, Congressman, keep us in the loop 129 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: of how far you get with us? Okay, we're sure. Well, 130 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 1: thank you so much. On I appreciate it. Congressman Ralph Norman, 131 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 1: South Carolina, the fifth District, eight hundred and nine for 132 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: one Seawn is our number. If you want to be 133 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 1: a part of the program, let's say, heid to Ronald 134 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 1: Is in Kentucky. Ronald, how are you you called? I'm fine, John, 135 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 1: great to speak with you. I was just curious. I 136 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 1: know that Soviets were in the Afghanistan and they also Withdrew, 137 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 1: and I was wondering if they had anywhere near the 138 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 1: debacle that we did. And if they didn't anywhere smooth, 139 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 1: why we didn't learn from that? You know, you're asking 140 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 1: a smart, intelligent question. You would think that, you know, 141 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 1: people might have learned something from that. One of the 142 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 1: reasons that they they withdrew and they lost that battle 143 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: and conflict in the eighties is because we supplied the 144 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 1: opposition forces then known as the muja Hadeen with Stinger 145 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,960 Speaker 1: missiles and they were taken Soviet planes out of the 146 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,199 Speaker 1: sky left and right. I mean, that is one of 147 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,840 Speaker 1: the most effective pieces of equipment that you'd ever want 148 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 1: for any military you know. One of my biggest fears 149 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:55,079 Speaker 1: as the deadline was approaching was as these planes were 150 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 1: taken off, that these sting or missiles still exist there. 151 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 1: And I was scared to death. And some planes took 152 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 1: off and were shooting flares as you know, in case 153 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:06,199 Speaker 1: a surface to air missile was shot at it. One 154 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 1: of my biggest fears was that was going to happen. 155 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 1: One of my biggest fears in America if these terrorists, 156 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 1: you know, ever get to this country. It's not the 157 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,959 Speaker 1: most complicated piece of military equipment to get your hands 158 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: on and or to develop even on your own. And 159 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:24,960 Speaker 1: you know, terrorists by their very nature are defined as evil, 160 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 1: and they want to kill innocence, and it's a converter 161 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:32,559 Speaker 1: die mentality. And you know, I fear waking up one 162 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 1: day and hearing that, you know, planes are being shot 163 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 1: out of the sky left and right all over the country, 164 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 1: and I think we're going to have to deal with 165 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:42,080 Speaker 1: the reality the terrorism we now have created. Joe Biden 166 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 1: created a safe haven for Al Qaeda, ISIS and isis 167 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 1: K and all these other terrorist groups to now have 168 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 1: a safe haven to plot, plan and scheme the next 169 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 1: attack against US. I wouldn't even say it's a matter 170 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 1: of if. It's when they do it. It's not if 171 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:00,680 Speaker 1: they do it. You know, we just had the twentieth 172 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 1: anniversary of nine to eleven. There's going to be more incidents. 173 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 1: And you know, I wish I was wrong. I pray 174 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 1: to God that I am wrong, but I don't think 175 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 1: I am Ronald, I don't think I'm wrong. Unfortunately, you know, 176 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 1: I wish I was speaking her Biden say he was 177 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:23,439 Speaker 1: touting the Afghan army, and he said he even had 178 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 1: an air force. Taliban even has control of that air 179 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 1: force now. The Taliban has control of all of it. 180 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 1: They have control of every bit of equipment. They have 181 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 1: more Blackhawk helicopters than eighty five percent of countries in 182 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 1: the world thanks to Joe Biden as a gift. I 183 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 1: mean that you cannot have a bigger foreign policy disaster 184 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: than what Joe Biden orchestrated here. All of these guys 185 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 1: testifying today, they all need to be fired. And frankly, 186 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 1: Joe needs to be fired over this. And you know, 187 00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 1: we now have to at some point as a country, 188 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 1: face of reality that this guy is not awake enough 189 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,959 Speaker 1: to do this job. He's not capable. And I don't 190 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 1: know who the puppeteers are who's pulling the strings here, 191 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: but it's certainly not him. He's not up to the job. 192 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: You know. You see him, you know, strut to the podium, 193 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 1: he reads a few lines, they rush him away as 194 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,720 Speaker 1: quickly as possible. He's not allowed to take questions or 195 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 1: he gets yelled at, and he's not going to get 196 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,840 Speaker 1: his ice cream that night. I mean, it's embarrassing. And 197 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:28,720 Speaker 1: the worst part is is that our enemy, hostile regime 198 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 1: nations in the world, they see it and they want 199 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 1: to take advantage of it, and our allies are aghast 200 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 1: because they depend on the United States to keep the 201 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 1: world safe and free and stable. And the reality is 202 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 1: we don't have a strong commander in chief. And that's 203 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 1: being charitable me saying it that way. You have somebody 204 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:55,320 Speaker 1: that is a cognitive mess and everybody knows it, you know, 205 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 1: they just I'm one of the just the dumb people 206 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 1: that are just willing to say it out loud. Anyway. 207 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 1: I'm not going to be compromised, Ronald, thank you. All right, 208 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 1: Let's go to our busy telephones here. Jamie's in Texas. Jamie, 209 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 1: how are you hi? Thanks for taking I a call. 210 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 1: I wanted to share something with you that I thought 211 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 1: you could appreciate. Would I would call him a hometown hero. 212 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: A young man thirty seven went to Afghanistan, survived Afghanistan, 213 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 1: joined the Texas Highway Patrol. When he got back, he 214 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,720 Speaker 1: was sent to del Rio because Governor Abbott, you know, 215 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:45,600 Speaker 1: needed help there. You know, our federal government is not helping. 216 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 1: So he was sent to Delario to help out there, 217 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 1: which they're rotating our troopers through. So he contracts the 218 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 1: COVID there. They know if it was a breakthrough case, 219 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 1: or had he been vaccinated. No, he was not vaccinated 220 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 1: at that point. He had chosen not to not to 221 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 1: be vaccinated. So he contracts it. He comes back home 222 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 1: here and he gets pretty sick, so he sent off 223 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:22,559 Speaker 1: to San Antonio for more acute care. Well, he talked 224 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 1: away about thirty seven. He passed away about two weeks ago. 225 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 1: Very so sorry, very sad, very sad. And you know, 226 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,800 Speaker 1: you know by keeping up with things that in del 227 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 1: Rio it's a mess. They're not testing, they're not they're 228 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 1: letting everyone. I guess they're losing all these people through 229 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 1: so that they have COVID, they give it to other 230 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: people who are innocent. So before he passed, he convinced 231 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,680 Speaker 1: his family, well, I'll tell you we can thank for 232 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 1: this in large part, my Arcas actually said, well, I didn't. 233 00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 1: I didn't expect the tragic rise of the Delta variant. 234 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:03,240 Speaker 1: And he even admitted yesterday that roughly one in five 235 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:09,200 Speaker 1: illegal immigrants are are that they're encountering are experiencing an 236 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 1: illness and apparent reference to COVID. So he's basically saying 237 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 1: twenty percent of these illegal immigrants and he doesn't call 238 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 1: him that anymore, are testing positive. And then Jen Saki's 239 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 1: out there lying and saying, well, now they're only going 240 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 1: to be here a short time, and that's a lie too. 241 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 1: I mean, we're getting lied to, left, right, sideways, you 242 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 1: name it, We're getting lied I'm sick of being lied to, 243 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 1: and I'm sorry about your friend. I wish you know 244 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 1: the reason I keep telling people I believe in proactive medicine. 245 00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 1: I'm not your doctor, but I want an informed audience. 246 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 1: Why do I tell people to research and be informed? 247 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: Because if you get a positive COVID test, breakthrough or unvaccinated, 248 00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 1: doesn't matter, the first question you need to ask your 249 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 1: doctors about. You know, therapeutics like monoclonal antibodies that have 250 00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 1: shown tremendous success rates when used. I'm not a doctor, 251 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 1: talk to your doctor, but you need to know it exists. 252 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:08,480 Speaker 1: You know, the level of ignorance about that one issue 253 00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 1: alone is unreal. Biden only mentioned it once and then 254 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 1: he found out it was working in Florida, so then 255 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 1: he starts rationing it even though we have enough for everybody. 256 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 1: I'm sorry about your friend. I mean it with all 257 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 1: my heart. Thirty seven too young, All of this preventable, 258 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 1: Just like all of Afghanistan preventable eight hundred and nine 259 00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 1: for one. Shaun is on number all right, twenty five 260 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 1: to the top of the hour, before we get to 261 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 1: your phone calls. I want to play some of the 262 00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 1: hearing today with these generals and General Million particular, and 263 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 1: you know Tom Cotton had a fascinating exchange asking if 264 00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 1: the recommendations of the generals did they never reach Biden, 265 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 1: in other words, that we need to keep a military 266 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 1: presence in Afghanistan, and then Tom Cotton criticizing why Biden 267 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 1: was recommended the August thirty first deadline to remove troops 268 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 1: on August twenty fifth, ten days after Cobble fell, which, 269 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 1: by the way, at that point they already knew where 270 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 1: the Taliban was. Nobody's ever answered the question, well, were 271 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,600 Speaker 1: you offered by the Taliban that they'd promised you they'd 272 00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 1: stay out a cobble and give you time to get 273 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 1: out and you turn that down because that was a 274 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 1: report that was out there too. And then we'll play 275 00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 1: for you one other exchange with Josh Hally ripping these 276 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 1: generals for telling people they didn't leave Americans behind. Yes 277 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 1: they did, and even Joe Mansion expressed disgust to General 278 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 1: Austin about the Taliban using equipment that we gave them, 279 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:37,200 Speaker 1: and the media by the way, asking Jen Saki and 280 00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 1: why Biden keeps insulting them. Anyway, if you missed it, 281 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 1: let me just play the senators here from the hearings 282 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 1: so you get a flavor if you've been working all 283 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 1: day of what went on. We'll have a lot of 284 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 1: this on Hannity tonight. Joe Biden said that it was 285 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 1: the unanimous, the unanimous recommendation of the Joint Chiefs that 286 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 1: we not maintained a military presence beyond August thirty first. 287 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 1: We've heard testimony that effect today as well. When was 288 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:07,479 Speaker 1: that unanimous recommendation sought and presented to the president? Can 289 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 1: you're talking about the thirty one August the thirty one 290 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 1: August getting On twenty five August, I was asked to 291 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:18,159 Speaker 1: make an assessment provide best military advice. I'm sorry, my 292 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,000 Speaker 1: time is limited here. You just get You gave me 293 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 1: the answer that I need to hear. August twenty fifth, correct, 294 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 1: couple fell in August fifteenth. That's correct. You were not 295 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:30,600 Speaker 1: asked before August twenty sixth. On August twenty fifth, I 296 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:32,680 Speaker 1: was asked to provide best military assessment is whether we 297 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:36,199 Speaker 1: should keep military forces past the thirty first, Secretary Austin, 298 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 1: was anybody asked before August twenty fifth if we should 299 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 1: keep troops at the Cobbel Airport. This is the President 300 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 1: tasked us to make to provide an assessment on whether 301 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 1: or not we should extend our presence beyond August thirty first, 302 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:55,920 Speaker 1: And as General Millie just said that assessment was made, 303 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:58,399 Speaker 1: we tasked him to make that assessment on the twenty fifth, 304 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 1: and he came by and provided his best military advice. 305 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 1: Secretary kabble Fell, on fifteenth, it was clear that we 306 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:07,200 Speaker 1: had thousands of America. It was clear to members of 307 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:09,200 Speaker 1: this committee we're getting phone calls that we had thousands 308 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 1: of Americans in Afghanistan behind Taliban lines on August fifteenth, 309 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:16,119 Speaker 1: and took ten days to ask these general officers if 310 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 1: we should extend our President I suspect the answer might 311 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 1: be a little different if you're asking them sixteen days out, 312 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 1: not five days out. I'd let me just sum up 313 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,359 Speaker 1: where I understand that we are, based on what's been 314 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:28,879 Speaker 1: a fairly extraordinary hearing. Here's what I've learned so far. 315 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:32,919 Speaker 1: Number One, President United States lighted American people about the 316 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 1: advice that you gave to him, about the military judgment 317 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:39,680 Speaker 1: that you've provided for him. I think you've all testified 318 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 1: to that effect now repeatedly. Secondly, the State Department and 319 00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:44,159 Speaker 1: maybe the White House appeared to have pushed back the 320 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:47,320 Speaker 1: evacuation to such a time, but it became a catastrophe, 321 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:49,439 Speaker 1: apparently against your advice, although I'd like to learn more 322 00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:51,640 Speaker 1: about that. And Third, for some reason, we still don't 323 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:55,639 Speaker 1: quite understand the Pentagon failed to plan for the potential 324 00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 1: collapse of the security forces or the collapse of the 325 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:00,879 Speaker 1: Afghan government, despite their being quite a lot of warning. 326 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:02,960 Speaker 1: Senator Kane referred to this earlier, quite a lot of 327 00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:06,160 Speaker 1: warning for really frankly years, that the Afghan security forces 328 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,440 Speaker 1: were ill equipped, ill trained, and frankly not up to 329 00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 1: the job. I don't understand any of that. I'd like 330 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:12,399 Speaker 1: to explore those things with you in this round of 331 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:14,879 Speaker 1: the next, but first before I do, Secretary Offten, I 332 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:16,639 Speaker 1: have to take issue with something you just said. I 333 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:19,439 Speaker 1: know this is an administration talking point. I've heard it 334 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 1: out of the mouth of the Press Secretary and others. 335 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 1: We are not leaving Americans behind that was your quote 336 00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 1: of just a minute ago, with all due respects, or 337 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:32,159 Speaker 1: you have left past tense Americans behind, we have no 338 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,480 Speaker 1: presence any longer in Afghanistan. There are hundreds of America, 339 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 1: and not just Americans, generally civilians. You left behind, against 340 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:46,680 Speaker 1: the President's explicit commitment not to leave until all American 341 00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:50,400 Speaker 1: citizens were out and to safety. That is not what happened. 342 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:53,920 Speaker 1: And now we have people who are desperately, frantically trying 343 00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 1: to get out of this country coming to me, coming 344 00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 1: to members of this committee asking for help. They can't 345 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:01,120 Speaker 1: get that help. They're stuck hind enemy lines. So please 346 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 1: don't tell me that we're not leaving Americans behind. You 347 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 1: left them behind, Joe Biden left them behind, and frankly, 348 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:11,000 Speaker 1: it was a disgrace. It drives me absolutely insane to 349 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:14,600 Speaker 1: see the television at night and see the Taliban and 350 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 1: all of them wearing our uniforms, wearing our night vision, 351 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 1: doing everything, using everything we have, our m raps and 352 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,879 Speaker 1: everything else that we left there. I just can't believe, 353 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:25,680 Speaker 1: and I can't even get an accounting of how much 354 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,400 Speaker 1: equipment we really did leave. I know how many aircraft 355 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:32,200 Speaker 1: we left, and I know how many basically m raps 356 00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:36,400 Speaker 1: and all the different things, but not to plan better 357 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:40,359 Speaker 1: to take that equipment out. Unbelievable. All right, let's get 358 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:43,199 Speaker 1: to our phones here on this Tuesday eight hundred nine 359 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:44,680 Speaker 1: for one, Sean, you want to be a part of 360 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:47,920 Speaker 1: the program. Shannon is in Missouri. Hey, Shannon, how are 361 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 1: you glad you called? Thanks for being with us. Hey Sean, 362 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 1: I'm doing well. Thank you for taking my call. Listen, 363 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 1: I went to the doctor last week and I've seen this, 364 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 1: been to this clinic for years and seeing this night forever. 365 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 1: And as she's finishing me up, she says, hey, Shehan, 366 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 1: and I just want to tell you thank you for 367 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 1: being my patient, and I probably won't be seeing you anymore. 368 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:10,720 Speaker 1: And I just looked at her and I said, oh, 369 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:13,679 Speaker 1: are you moving? She said, no, I've got to be 370 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:17,720 Speaker 1: vaccinated by the first of October. I'm losing my job. 371 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 1: And I just looked at her. I'm like, you see 372 00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:22,080 Speaker 1: it on the news and you hear about it, but 373 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 1: I hadn't experienced it. And I just looked at her, 374 00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:28,280 Speaker 1: and she said, just so you know, I'm not an 375 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 1: anti vaccer. She said, I'm not against the vaccine. I 376 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:35,359 Speaker 1: just don't want to be forced to take it. She said, 377 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:38,080 Speaker 1: I know you can't. She says, I want you to know, 378 00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 1: and I said, no, ma'am, I can't. And I said, 379 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:43,800 Speaker 1: I'm so sorry. I'm justed this woman with my life, 380 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:47,680 Speaker 1: my health care, and her judgment has proven well for me, 381 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,280 Speaker 1: and she's taking great care of me. And it just 382 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 1: broke my heart. I just you could see it by 383 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,919 Speaker 1: the way. It breaks my heart too. Did you realize 384 00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:58,399 Speaker 1: in New York now, the governor or the new governor, 385 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:00,639 Speaker 1: what's her name, hohcol something. I don't even know the 386 00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:05,120 Speaker 1: woman's name. She's literally got a plan in place. They're 387 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:08,959 Speaker 1: going to fire all of these first responder, you know, 388 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 1: hospital workers, the people that dove on COVID grenades and 389 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 1: coronavirus grenades in the middle of the worst of this, 390 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:23,159 Speaker 1: many of whom got COVID themselves, and the people that 391 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:26,080 Speaker 1: were on the front lines fighting when we knew next 392 00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:30,480 Speaker 1: to nothing about this virus to save lives. And now, 393 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:34,119 Speaker 1: for whatever reason, maybe it's a unique medical condition, there 394 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 1: are no exemptions whatsoever. Right, it's one size fits all medicine. 395 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:41,600 Speaker 1: Or maybe it's they believe in natural immunity. They're following 396 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 1: the science on it, which is not complete, but science 397 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:49,160 Speaker 1: is pretty indicative that T cell antibodies are real according 398 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:51,359 Speaker 1: to the doctors we've interviewed. But I recommend you talk 399 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 1: to your doctor. And now we're going to take people 400 00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 1: that were willing to risk their lives in the worst 401 00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:00,920 Speaker 1: moment of this pandemic and we're going to fire them. 402 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 1: It is unconscionable to me. And they've got plans in 403 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:09,320 Speaker 1: place to replace them with the National Guard and people 404 00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 1: from other countries. Even and I'm sitting here thinking when 405 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:15,199 Speaker 1: it was sort of like, you know, when Governor Cuomo 406 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:20,360 Speaker 1: was governor and these these nurses and doctors and hospital 407 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 1: workers came from all over the country to help New 408 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 1: York out, New York City and New York out during 409 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 1: the worst moments of this pandemic. And then he sends 410 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,159 Speaker 1: them a bill for to pay their state income tax. 411 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 1: I'm like, Chief, can you give him a break for once? 412 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:39,080 Speaker 1: I mean, you want your ten percent. These people didn't 413 00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:42,360 Speaker 1: have to dive on a COVID you know, grenade every day, 414 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:45,159 Speaker 1: because that's what they were doing there. They were walking 415 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,160 Speaker 1: into pet covid petrie dishes every day, and they did 416 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:50,920 Speaker 1: it anyway. And I got to be honest, I don't 417 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 1: think i'd want that job. You know, I'd do it 418 00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:56,200 Speaker 1: if it was my job and I had a passion 419 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 1: for me. I do have a passion for medicine, but 420 00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:01,359 Speaker 1: I don't have a passion to perform it myself. Like 421 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,879 Speaker 1: I'm fascinated with airplanes, but I've no desire to be 422 00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 1: a pilot. I've I've sat through surgeries, but I don't 423 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 1: want any part of you know, holding somebody's brain in 424 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 1: my hand or hard in my hand either. But you know, 425 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 1: think about you know, it's just sad to me. There's 426 00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:18,879 Speaker 1: a service I've been using where they actually come to 427 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:22,280 Speaker 1: your house and and you know, they do these tests. 428 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:28,119 Speaker 1: And one of the nurses that works there, you know, 429 00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 1: literally said I probably won't see him, mister Hannity again, 430 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 1: And I'm like, why, huh? It goes well, I, you know, 431 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:38,120 Speaker 1: for personal reasons. I just decided if I don't get 432 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:41,400 Speaker 1: the vaccine, I can't work here anymore. And the hospital 433 00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:43,560 Speaker 1: system's firing her. I said, what are you gonna do? 434 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 1: And she doesn't know yet, And I'm thinking this is 435 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 1: somebody that literally has been in front of COVID patients 436 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:56,120 Speaker 1: every day since this this shift show started and I'm 437 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:59,439 Speaker 1: like this, there's something so wrong about it. And he'd say, well, 438 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:01,320 Speaker 1: they just need to get the vaccine. They need to 439 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:03,680 Speaker 1: just do it. They need to do what we say. 440 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 1: You know, you know, I don't understand with us where 441 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 1: everybody feels so compelled to abandon all sense of medical 442 00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:17,399 Speaker 1: privacy doctor patient confidentiality, and everybody feels a need to 443 00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:21,640 Speaker 1: play doctor. You know, I'll be honest with you. I 444 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:25,960 Speaker 1: never went to medical school. I'm not qualified to tell 445 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,080 Speaker 1: you eight hundred nine for one, Shawn, if you want 446 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 1: to be a part of the program, all right, let's 447 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 1: say hello to Jason is in California, the United Socialist 448 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 1: Utopia out there. What's up, Jason? How are you? I 449 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 1: know I'm in the epicenter of Liberalville, freaking taking grenades 450 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:45,479 Speaker 1: in here. Sean, I don't know how you do it. 451 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:47,159 Speaker 1: You may want to get the hell out of there 452 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 1: with everybody else. I'm a young business owner. I'm married 453 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:52,639 Speaker 1: to it, but I've been thinking about it now. But hey, 454 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 1: I wanted to talk to you about that infrastructure bill. 455 00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 1: You know, we see another twenty six hundred page document 456 00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: coming across the desk. You have voted on you know, 457 00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 1: our government puts every law and imaginable in the name 458 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,959 Speaker 1: of protecting us, right, the protecting consumer. For example, when 459 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 1: you purchase the home, you're going to sign and see 460 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:12,000 Speaker 1: every disclosure on every closing document. You're gonna know where 461 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:14,440 Speaker 1: every penny if commission went. You're gonna if there's kickbacks, 462 00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 1: which is great, right, you don't want you know, you 463 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:19,159 Speaker 1: want to prepare for payment shock. Well, nothing's going to 464 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:21,720 Speaker 1: prepare me more for payment shock than my representatives when 465 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:24,199 Speaker 1: they get presented a bill with twenty six hundred pages 466 00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:26,000 Speaker 1: three days before they have to vote on it, Like, 467 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 1: where are the disclosures? Who's where's the accountability coming from 468 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 1: our representatives? Don't you understand you need to pass the 469 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 1: bill to learn what's in the bill. That's how you 470 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:39,439 Speaker 1: know the swamp. But but imagine if like somebody like 471 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:42,120 Speaker 1: Marjorie Green took one from from the Woke book and said, 472 00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:44,800 Speaker 1: you know, hey, i am just a lady from Georgia. 473 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:48,200 Speaker 1: You know, I'm not a sophisticated academia liberal here. Um, 474 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 1: I am getting overwhelmed. So we need to see you know, 475 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 1: there has to be some kind of you know, you 476 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:56,119 Speaker 1: hear people talking about holding each other accountable. You know, 477 00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:57,919 Speaker 1: just go and vote. But I want to see these 478 00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:01,199 Speaker 1: representatives come up and say, let's hold ourselves accountable. You know, 479 00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:04,359 Speaker 1: there's more accountability in a high school yearbook class than 480 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 1: there is in the House representative. My only answer to 481 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,560 Speaker 1: you is, and I'm listening to you, and I'm thinking, 482 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:16,120 Speaker 1: it is the most disastrous administration. There's not a single 483 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:17,879 Speaker 1: thing I can point to to say, you know what, 484 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:21,760 Speaker 1: that's a good thing they did, They're successful there. I 485 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:25,640 Speaker 1: can't see it. I never imagine a country could disintegrate 486 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:30,200 Speaker 1: and deteriorate on such a level as this in such 487 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 1: a short period of time. But that's exactly what's happening now, 488 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 1: whether or not cinema. And it's really I think this 489 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,199 Speaker 1: is going to pass in the House. That's my guess. 490 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:44,320 Speaker 1: A version of this will pass in the House. Dancy 491 00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:47,479 Speaker 1: Pelosi keeps changing her mind, and I just you know, 492 00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 1: but when you look inside the bill and you see 493 00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:53,919 Speaker 1: what's in here, and I've gone over this and the 494 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 1: amount of money they're spending, it is an unmitigated disaster. 495 00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:03,680 Speaker 1: We cannot forward this bill. We are robbing our kids blind. 496 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:08,080 Speaker 1: And if you look at the analysis of this, it's 497 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:13,160 Speaker 1: hiking taxes on everybody. The price of oil just went higher. 498 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:16,400 Speaker 1: We're paying more every day for every item we buy. 499 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:19,680 Speaker 1: And even the FETE is acknowledging that inflation is here 500 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:23,159 Speaker 1: to stay. And that's because of Joe's policies. And I 501 00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:26,000 Speaker 1: don't even know. If listen, I guarantee you nobody will 502 00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:28,520 Speaker 1: read this bill. That's why we've been spending the time 503 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:33,480 Speaker 1: looking at their spending one point eight trillion America's Famili's Plan. 504 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:37,880 Speaker 1: You know, a child allowance increases, then student loan increases, 505 00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:42,480 Speaker 1: pre K increases for four year olds, two hundred billion 506 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 1: dollars with the American Family Plan. I mean, I could 507 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:48,080 Speaker 1: just go on and on like I did earlier in 508 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 1: the program. It is a lot of money and we 509 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:54,320 Speaker 1: can't afford any of it. And the problem is with socialism, 510 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 1: it's great until you run out of other people's money. 511 00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 1: And then they're lying to us and saying, well, we 512 00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 1: don't have to pay for it. It's not going to 513 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:03,719 Speaker 1: cost us a penny. I'm like, okay, I don't know 514 00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 1: what abacus Joe Biden is using, but we have calculators 515 00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:09,680 Speaker 1: that actually do real math. And the real math is 516 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 1: is that lower income Americans, middle class Americans are going 517 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:15,760 Speaker 1: to be paying the bulk of everything. And add to 518 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,120 Speaker 1: that the high cost of every item we buy because 519 00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:21,760 Speaker 1: of their dependence now on foreign sources of energy, and 520 00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 1: everything's going to cost more. And that's the situation they 521 00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:28,959 Speaker 1: left us. They look at the disaster on the border, 522 00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:32,160 Speaker 1: look at the disaster with the economy, look at the 523 00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 1: disaster in Afghanistan, look at the disaster of begging Opec 524 00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 1: to produce more oil, look at the disaster everywhere. I 525 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:42,320 Speaker 1: don't see a single thing I can point to where 526 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:45,880 Speaker 1: I say, Wow, they're pretty successful with this policy. Actually, 527 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:50,040 Speaker 1: they did a good job here. You know it's bad anyway. 528 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:52,840 Speaker 1: We're gonna outline it all tonight. Hannity ninetiestern on Fox. 529 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 1: All right, that's gonna wrap things up at today, all right, 530 00:29:55,160 --> 00:30:00,320 Speaker 1: Senator Hawley, Senator Cotton.
