18
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:15,040

24
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:39,679
Speaker 1: what would that you would live in interesting times? So

25
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 1: goes the Chinese aphorism. It's never quite been determined whether

26
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 1: that was a good wish or an ill one, but

27
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 1: we definitely live in interesting times.

28
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 2: Indeed, what to make of it all? You know?

29
00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 1: I try to see the good in all of it.

30
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:05,000
Speaker 1: I put up a post yesterday on the day of

31
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,639
Speaker 1: my brother's birthday, in my anniversary to my wife, and

32
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 1: I said, look, I'm going to tell you about my

33
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 1: brother's birthday because I want to honor him. But please

34
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 1: don't send me condolences, because there are no condolencces. I'm

35
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,080
Speaker 1: very happy he lived, and I'm very happy for the

36
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 1: time I've had that I had with him. And I

37
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 1: look forward and I think so much of life, folks,

38
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 1: so much of life for you and your life, whether

39
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 1: you are happy or sad, is which thing you choose

40
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 1: to look at For the people who have passed. Do

41
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,800
Speaker 1: you choose to look at the happy memories or do

42
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 1: you choose to dwell on the fact that they're not

43
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 1: here today? Because if they were, you probably wouldn't be

44
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 1: having dinner with him anyway, You'd probably be too busy

45
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 1: doing something else. So be grateful for the time you did.

46
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,400
Speaker 1: Stop and use that to make your life better. To

47
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 1: live your life differently, because we're all going to die,

48
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,120
Speaker 1: and before that we're going to lose a lot of

49
00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 1: people around us. So maybe live your life so that

50
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:01,640
Speaker 1: you do, matt smise, because I can guarantee you what

51

Speaker 1: The offense stabilized under the command of Dante Pastorini, who

58
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:33,400

96
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 2: somebody in town, I'm Max. Jennifer Shay.

97
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 1: A couple of weeks ago in Palm Beach, our company Premier,

98
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,000
Speaker 1: which is the syndicator that brings our show to your

Speaker 1: Back and Clay and Buck and Jesse Kelly and Jennifer

101
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:46,719
Speaker 1: was there and we had we had a small gathering

102
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:50,320
Speaker 1: and I got to visit with her at length. And

103
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 1: I never met her in person, But Jennifer was a

104
00:05:55,120 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 1: star in corporate America. She was the chief marketing officer

105
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:04,599
Speaker 1: for Levi Strauss Company, and she kind of became a

106
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,720
Speaker 1: whistleblower because she refused to be woke, and we had her.

107
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 1: She wrote a book about it. She's a little spark plug.

108
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 2: I mean she is.

109
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 1: She's tiny, and she's tough, and she has started a

110
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:25,160
Speaker 1: company called xxx Y. So we called my wife. While

111
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 1: we were sitting there talking, she's your wife will know

112
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 1: about it, and I said, usually kind of.

113
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 2: Look at what she's wearing.

114
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:34,360
Speaker 1: She wears athletic gear at leisure when she's working out.

115
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 1: And she said, oh, she'll know it. So we called

116
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: and sure enough, my wife knew of it. XXXY Jennifer.

117
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:44,280
Speaker 1: Shea the founder and CEO of that company. It's only

118
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:46,479
Speaker 1: less than two years old and they're already making a

119
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:50,360
Speaker 1: big mark. But I love this because now that she is,

120
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 1: you know, refuses to be woke, and she's building this

121
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:56,280
Speaker 1: business as a kind.

122
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:59,280
Speaker 2: Of you can do it the right way. A lot

123
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 2: of people like you're rooting for her.

124
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 1: So she was doing an interview or it was like

125
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,040
Speaker 1: a panel discussion, and she said she wants to be

126
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 1: the first company without an HR department. She means big companies,

127
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:13,440
Speaker 1: because you may not have an HR department at your offices.

128
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 1: But I love this idea and I love that somebody

129
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 1: who came from corporate America is talking about this. I

130
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 1: want to be the first company that has no HR.

131
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 1: They produce nothing, They monitor our words, they tell us

132
00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:32,240
Speaker 1: what we can and cannot say.

133
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:35,040
Speaker 2: They inhibit creativity. It was just recruiting.

134
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 1: Fine, do that, but do not get in my business

135
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 1: and tell us how we have to talk about things,

136
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 1: what we can say, what words are acceptable and what

137
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 1: words are not.

138
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:49,600
Speaker 2: It's terrible for business. And now that's somebody that came

139
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 2: from a big corporate environment. And if you don't know.

140
00:07:55,960 --> 00:08:01,600
Speaker 1: How much of a drain a bad HR department can

141
00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 1: be on a corporation, you first have to understand.

142
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:09,239
Speaker 2: I give you an example.

143
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 1: When I served on city council in Houston, real estate

144
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 1: folks would come to me and they would say, councilmen,

145
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 1: can we.

146
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 2: Get help on this issue.

147
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 1: They're telling us that in this building that's one hundred

148
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 1: years old that we're we're renovating and putting sixty million

149
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 1: dollars into that, the toilet has to be moved over

150
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 1: three inches from the wall. It's already seven inches, and

151
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:34,840
Speaker 1: the current code said it has to be ten.

152
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 2: And we have to bring up to current code.

153
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,040
Speaker 1: It's not going to make a difference, but it's going

154
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:40,400
Speaker 1: to cost us a lot of money because we have

155
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:43,320
Speaker 1: to bust into the floor and the tile in the

156
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 1: floor is one hundred years old and can't be replaced,

157
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:50,400
Speaker 1: and once we bust into this water line, we could

158
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,200
Speaker 1: very well open up a level of problems that will

159
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,880
Speaker 1: make this deal unsustainable because we have to do it

160
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:59,160
Speaker 1: on every floor and it's a twenty four building. Also

161
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 1: that the toilet will be three inches further from the wall.

162
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 1: When the building was built, that was perfectly fine. But

163
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,200
Speaker 1: then somebody came up with a uniform code and said, oh,

164
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,200
Speaker 1: needs to be ten inches from the wall.

165
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 2: Why who are you protecting here?

166
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 1: If I go into a restroom and the toilet is

167
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:19,160
Speaker 1: too close to the wall, I'll go You know, I'm

168
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:20,800
Speaker 1: probably not going to come back here because your toilet's

169
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,679
Speaker 1: not any good, or I'll pee into sing but whatever.

170
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:30,160
Speaker 1: So this crazy mindset, I would say to them, all right,

171
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:34,320
Speaker 1: let me go talk to the inspection department at the

172
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 1: city and let me see what I can get done.

173
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:41,199
Speaker 1: And invariably the person would say, we're bringing sixty million

174
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 1: dollars worth of development on this project alone, and now

175
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 1: they're going to get property taxes, sales taxes. This is

176
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 1: going to make a lot of money for the city.

177
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,440
Speaker 1: And it broke my heart so bad I stopped saying it.

178
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,400
Speaker 1: But when I started, I would say, you need to

179
00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:05,960
Speaker 1: understand The code inspector does not give one f how

180
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 1: much money you're bringing into the city. Well he should, yes,

181
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:15,440
Speaker 1: he should, but he doesn't. And this is the important

182
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:21,000
Speaker 1: thing to remember. People end up in positions not by accident.

183
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:26,240
Speaker 1: There is an order to the world, an invisible hand,

184
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 1: if I may quote Adam Smith, that guides people into positions.

185
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 1: The kind of person who becomes a code inspector is

186
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 1: often you think of BTK guy had control issues. Is

187
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 1: often a person who is not prone to seeking profit.

188
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 2: Because you don't make much money.

189
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 1: He's not prone to wanting the rewards of promotion because's

190
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:51,760
Speaker 1: no promotion.

191
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:52,680
Speaker 2: Is just an inspector.

192
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,880
Speaker 1: He's not a person who plays well with others. He's

193
00:10:56,920 --> 00:11:01,640
Speaker 1: often a person who's very introverted, and he'd really like

194
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,320
Speaker 1: to have the control he never had in his life. Now, look,

195
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 1: I've got some listeners who are regular emailers to me

196
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 1: who are inspectors, and I suspect they're not that way.

197
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 1: And I found inspectors that were reasonable that I could

198
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 1: deal with, that would try to be fair to people.

199
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:18,680
Speaker 1: It's not that all inspectors are bad, but when you

200
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,680
Speaker 1: get a bad one, I can tell you everything about

201
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 1: that person without ever meeting them, and I can tell

202
00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:26,680
Speaker 1: you that what they're trying to do as an adult

203
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 1: is get back control over someone or something that they

204
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 1: never had as a child. Busted childhood, moved constantly, Dad

205
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,679
Speaker 1: was a drunk, men coming in in and out of

206
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 1: mom's life, fleeing in the middle of the night because

207
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 1: they couldn't pay the rent, the electricity, getting cut off,

208
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:50,480
Speaker 1: changing schools, and being socially awkward, having to wear glasses,

209
00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:55,920
Speaker 1: breaking out with pimples, starting your period early, wearing white shorts,

210
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:59,720
Speaker 1: all these things that bring shame and embarrassment that seems

211
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,199
Speaker 1: silly at this age, but as a kid can mar

212
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:07,960
Speaker 1: a child and they end up as an adult still

213
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:12,839
Speaker 1: dealing with that and trying, hoping against hope that they

214
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:17,160
Speaker 1: can find some way to get control in their life

215
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 1: because they never had any. And if the only control

216
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:25,560
Speaker 1: they can get is making you do what they want

217
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:29,040
Speaker 1: to do, there you have it. That's what they'll do.

218
00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:35,640
Speaker 1: Once you understand when you're dealing with someone that you're

219
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:40,080
Speaker 1: not dealing with yourself. This creates a great frustration for

220
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:45,200
Speaker 1: very smart people, very balanced people, very rational people, because

221
00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 1: you ascribe to them other people that you're dealing with

222
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 1: the same set of personality traits that you have.

223
00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:56,320
Speaker 2: So when someone when.

224
00:12:56,200 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 1: You're driving along and we're all obviously merging and the

225
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 1: next guy, the guy beside you, doesn't merge.

226
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:04,760
Speaker 2: He shoots up ahead so he can cut.

227
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:08,720
Speaker 1: In, and you're going along and he's road raging on you,

228
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:10,439
Speaker 1: and you're going, what are we going to kill each

229
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,600
Speaker 1: other over? Who gets in in the line, Because you've

230
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:14,600
Speaker 1: got a lot to live for. It doesn't make sense,

231
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 1: but he doesn't. When you understand that other people are

232
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 1: not like you, it begins to make a lot more sense.

233
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,559
Speaker 1: And you can restrict you anybody, and.

234
00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 3: You listen to the Michael Berry show.

235
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:28,439
Speaker 2: Good not.

236
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:38,440
Speaker 1: When you don't. My brother passed during COVID. He took

237
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:42,840
Speaker 1: the shot. He didn't want to, he was required to.

238
00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:47,880
Speaker 1: And there were a number of law enforcement officers who

239
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:55,480
Speaker 1: died under very mysterious circumstances, who had no real underlying

240
00:13:55,880 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 1: health condition. And we're relatively young. In other words, they

241
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:06,400
Speaker 1: were not a candidate to die of COVID. COVID, much

242
00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:11,560
Speaker 1: like the flu, would naturally kill some people. But those

243
00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:18,840
Speaker 1: are people who are morbidly obese, or severely diabetic, or elderly.

244
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:23,160
Speaker 1: In other words, people whose physical constitution, we call them comorbidities.

245
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:26,720
Speaker 1: But the real meaning of this is people who are vulnerable.

246
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:29,360
Speaker 1: And I saw the number I think it was thirty

247
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 1: six thou one year die of the flu. Well, COVID

248
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,840
Speaker 1: was in the flu category. That it would do that

249
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 1: to people who had a weaker system, and that's we're

250
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 1: all going to die at some point, and when we

251
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:45,040
Speaker 1: have compromised systems, we're going to die of something like that.

252
00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 1: It's just the way it goes to force people to

253
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 1: take something that was called a vaccine but wasn't a vaccine,

254
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:58,200
Speaker 1: and to do so under penalty of losing your job,

255
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,520
Speaker 1: not being able to go to school, not being able

256
00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 1: to enter spaces. Do you remember how the left would

257
00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 1: cheer when the unvaccinated died.

258
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:08,920
Speaker 2: How sick is that.

259
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 1: It's a cult. So we will never stop telling this story.

260
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 1: Some of you will remember Mary Tally Boden my ear

261
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:24,800
Speaker 1: nose and throat doctor, sinus doctor. I had her on

262
00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:28,920
Speaker 1: before COVID to talk about sinuses, that's her expertise. Then

263
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:32,479
Speaker 1: COVID hit and she became rather famous because she passionately

264
00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 1: threw herself into pushing for ivermectin and pushing to save clients'

265
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:41,520
Speaker 1: lives rather than following the protocol of this stupid vaccine

266
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:42,680
Speaker 1: that is not a vaccine.

267
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:44,640
Speaker 2: We're never going to let this go.

268
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 1: Mary Tally has been on Tucker Carlson Show, on Joe

269
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 1: Rogan's show recently, and people are just now hearing the

270
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:54,240
Speaker 1: message that she has to say, and she's become an

271
00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 1: evangelist for it. We cannot simply allow that to happen

272
00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:02,640
Speaker 1: and go away and not still talk about it. President

273
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:05,040
Speaker 1: Trump just pardoned First Lieutenant Mark C.

274
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 2: Bashaw.

275
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,520
Speaker 1: He was company commander of the Army Public Health Center's

276
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:13,800
Speaker 1: headquarters company at Aberdeen Proving Ground in Maryland. At the time,

277
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:18,360
Speaker 1: the Army required all on site workers to provide proof

278
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 1: of being I'm going to use this word in quotes

279
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 1: vaccinated because it's not a vaccine against COVID nineteen, or

280
00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:28,880
Speaker 1: submit to regular testing, Mark Bashaw. This is where a

281
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 1: disc goes Weird was convicted in a first ever court

282
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 1: martial for violating COVID nineteen safety protocols in twenty twenty two.

283
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 1: He faced three charges, including refusing to work remotely or

284
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:46,920
Speaker 1: submit to testing requirements, and refusing to wear a mask

285
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:51,000
Speaker 1: while indoors. And I'll remind you. Fauci said the masks

286
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 1: were stupid until he decided the masks were good. And

287
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:56,240
Speaker 1: if you remember, he said, you need to have everybody

288
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:59,280
Speaker 1: wearing the mask. Not because they're effective, they're not, but

289
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:03,840
Speaker 1: because they remind everybody you're having a pandemic. They bring fear. Well,

290
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:05,159
Speaker 1: that's not what a mask should be for.

291
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:07,040
Speaker 2: Mark C.

292
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:10,560
Speaker 1: Bashaw also allegedly stayed at work even though he hadn't

293
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:14,119
Speaker 1: tested negative for the deadly virus. What an awful monster

294
00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:17,639
Speaker 1: this man is. He was doing his job and you

295
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:19,960
Speaker 1: can't do your job. We're not going to let you

296
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,360
Speaker 1: do your job because you're not playing by our rules.

297
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:26,040
Speaker 1: But the judge overseeing the case at the time declined

298
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:30,760
Speaker 1: to impose any punishment, even though First Lieutenant Mark Bashall

299
00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:34,399
Speaker 1: received no additional punishment quote unquote by the judge for

300
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:39,160
Speaker 1: refusing to participate with experimental COVID nineteen protocols masks test injection.

301
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:45,920
Speaker 1: His commanding General, Major General Robert Edmondson, decided to use

302
00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:52,160
Speaker 1: the guilty conviction as justification to fire bashawe from service

303
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:55,840
Speaker 1: to our nation after fourteen I'm sorry, after more than

304
00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 1: seventeen years of dedicated service. You know we don't have

305
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:01,080
Speaker 1: enough of these guys we can spare that we can

306
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:05,760
Speaker 1: fire them for stupid reasons. I admire people who will

307
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 1: take a personal loss to stand up for principle. People

308
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:13,680
Speaker 1: of conviction like this, and it's my honor to welcome

309
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:15,719
Speaker 1: to the program first Lieutenant Mark Sebashel.

310
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:19,280
Speaker 3: I appreciate it, Michael, thanks for having me.

311
00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 1: Let's I got about three minutes left in this segment,

312
00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:25,760
Speaker 1: and then I want to get deep into the details.

313
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:27,480
Speaker 1: But give me about a minute and a half of

314
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:30,160
Speaker 1: a bio. Where were you born, to whom? What's your

315
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:32,040
Speaker 1: personal life? Why'd you go in the military.

316
00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I grew up in Newbury, Massachusetts. Old Town, Newbury,

317
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:42,080
Speaker 3: Massachusetts founded at sixteen twenty. I lived there, and so

318
00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 3: I was nineteen years old, joined the military basically right

319
00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:49,560
Speaker 3: out of high school and listed in the Air Force

320
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:53,680
Speaker 3: immediately upon enlisting and after initial training, I got sent

321
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:57,760
Speaker 3: overseas for the next ten years and I served in Japan, Germany,

322
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 3: South Korea, Africa, Middle East, Central America, and I served

323
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:10,240
Speaker 3: as a primary job was entomology and public health and

324
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:15,760
Speaker 3: test management type activities, risk communication strategies, and protecting service

325
00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:20,199
Speaker 3: members from vector borne disease and other Arthur POD and

326
00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:25,120
Speaker 3: non Arthur PROD threats to the force. In twenty nineteen,

327
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:27,560
Speaker 3: I did a direct commission into the Army as an

328
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:32,000
Speaker 3: officer from enlisted to officer, and that was directly into

329
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:35,760
Speaker 3: the Medical Service Corps twenty nineteen. And then my very

330
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:41,680
Speaker 3: first duty assignment was Army Public Health Center, Aberdeen Improvement Grounds, Maryland,

331
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:44,960
Speaker 3: January twenty twenty. I showed up there, served as the

332
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 3: company commander for a year through the initial COVID madness,

333
00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:53,600
Speaker 3: and then in July twenty twenty one went back to

334
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 3: preventive Medicine to do risk communication strategies and that's when

335
00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:05,800
Speaker 3: the weaponized made indates from this belligerent Biden administration started

336
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:10,720
Speaker 3: being weaponized against the quote unquote unvaccinated service members. We

337
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:14,280
Speaker 3: have the data and the databases to show all the dangers,

338
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:20,480
Speaker 3: the deadliness, the you know, the threats of these products

339
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:24,920
Speaker 3: upon the force. And so that's that's kind of my background. Obviously,

340
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 3: like you alluded to, I got court martialed for standing

341
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:33,760
Speaker 3: up and trying to one not participate with these products

342
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:38,679
Speaker 3: because they're experimental and they were being weaponized against the force,

343
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:42,639
Speaker 3: but two also to conduct my duties as as a

344
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:48,520
Speaker 3: preventive medicine officer and properly inform our military personnel that

345
00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:54,919
Speaker 3: they they were not they always had the option to

346
00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:58,320
Speaker 3: accept or refuse these products per federal law, and that

347
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:02,239
Speaker 3: their chain of command could not mandate these products. And

348
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:06,159
Speaker 3: then also to inform them about the signals and the

349
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:10,199
Speaker 3: databases that we were seeing which were alarming. So I

350
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:12,639
Speaker 3: fail all that to say, that's kind of my background

351
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:14,520
Speaker 3: and the gist.

352
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 1: Of the situation, Mark Bashaw, First Lieutenant, I have been

353
00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:22,879
Speaker 1: doing this for twenty years. When I give someone a

354
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:28,640
Speaker 1: time frame and a broad, open ended topic like that,

355
00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:31,960
Speaker 1: you're a disembodied voice. We're not looking across the table.

356
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 1: I'm not able to give you any body language. You're

357
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,399
Speaker 1: talking into a phone without being able to see anything

358
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:40,320
Speaker 1: we've never met. I think that may be the best

359
00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:44,639
Speaker 1: answer I've ever seen given on a subject so broad,

360
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:50,160
Speaker 1: to stick to the time and punctuate it perfectly. Sheer brilliance.

361
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:54,880
Speaker 1: More of our conversation with First Lieutenant Mark Seabet. We're

362
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,159
Speaker 1: going to be changing the name of the Gulf of

363
00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 1: Mexico to the Golf of Kleberry as a beautiful way. Mashaus,

364
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 1: our guest he was court martial for the awful crime

365
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:12,080
Speaker 1: during COVID of not going along to get along. He

366
00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:15,440
Speaker 1: has been pardoned by President Trump. Tell me if you would,

367
00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:18,720
Speaker 1: how you came to learn that President Trump was pardoning you.

368
00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:27,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, so it was actually quite a surprise, I understood,

369
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:32,960
Speaker 3: because I had good friends in the military and outside

370
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:35,400
Speaker 3: the military. You served with me in the military, who

371
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:42,800
Speaker 3: were advocating for presidential pardon. However, I really didn't expect it.

372
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,840
Speaker 3: I just didn't expect it. And so on the twenty

373
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:51,560
Speaker 3: eighth of May twenty five to about three weeks ago,

374
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:54,440
Speaker 3: I got a direct call from the White House from

375
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:58,679
Speaker 3: the pardons are Elise Johnson and then also White House Counsel,

376
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:03,199
Speaker 3: which was retired Colonel Earl Matthews, to inform me that

377
00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:07,159
Speaker 3: the President gave me a full unconditional pardon for the

378
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:11,240
Speaker 3: conviction and the court martial. And it was just, I mean,

379
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:15,440
Speaker 3: it's incredibly it was an incredibly surreal moment, and incredibly

380
00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:20,639
Speaker 3: it was a bit emotional too, just because of just

381
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:23,240
Speaker 3: because of the battle and the and the fight.

382
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:26,080
Speaker 2: Name.

383
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:33,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it was it was good too that I mean,

384
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:37,440
Speaker 3: because it wasn't just my situation, wasn't just about the

385
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 3: the injections or the quote unquote vaccines, would would some

386
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:45,520
Speaker 3: people refer to him as which they aren't. But it

387
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:48,240
Speaker 3: was also because of the weaponized testing and masking, and

388
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:51,879
Speaker 3: it was good to see that the President Trump acknowledged

389
00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:57,600
Speaker 3: the weaponization of those products as well and the situation

390
00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:00,480
Speaker 3: at large, because because one of the big things I'll

391
00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:04,240
Speaker 3: say is one of the main weapons wasn't and you

392
00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:06,240
Speaker 3: kind of alluded to it at the beginning of the show,

393
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:10,160
Speaker 3: But one of the main weapons wasn't isn't the jabs

394
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,159
Speaker 3: per se. Now they've done a lot of damage, and

395
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 3: they're incredibly dangerous, incredibly deadly, and just unknown in general

396
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:21,359
Speaker 3: because of the experimental nature of them, and then the

397
00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:24,320
Speaker 3: weaponization on top of that. But one of the main

398
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:28,119
Speaker 3: weapons was the testing and the diagnostics. Because something you

399
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:31,280
Speaker 3: talked about at the beginning was the flu. You know

400
00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 3: how this was very you know, is similar to the

401
00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:39,000
Speaker 3: flu situation. Well, what happened to the flu during the

402
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:44,959
Speaker 3: COVID nineteen people, Yeah, exactly, But I posit that they

403
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:48,320
Speaker 3: just switched the PCR testing from flu to COVID nineteen

404
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:52,760
Speaker 3: and just relabeled the situation that we've always dealt with,

405
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:58,639
Speaker 3: which is an annual symptoms of flu like symptoms on

406
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:02,959
Speaker 3: an annual basis do of several different factors, whether it's

407
00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:07,919
Speaker 3: you know, your comorbidities or environmental factors. And then what

408
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,200
Speaker 3: did they do that? They just switched the label to

409
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:14,920
Speaker 3: COVID nineteen and then ran psychological operations on the American

410
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:19,520
Speaker 3: populace to create that false evidence appearing real. Which is fear.

411
00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:30,440
Speaker 1: Fear is at the heart of every aspect of authoritarianism.

412
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:35,160
Speaker 1: It is fear of government repercussions. It is fear of dying.

413
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:38,400
Speaker 1: It is fear of social ostracization.

414
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:42,720
Speaker 2: It is fear, fear, fear. It never appears.

415
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 1: It's never They never appealed to you in an aspirational way.

416
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:52,000
Speaker 1: It is always fear, fear of going to jail, fear

417
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:55,680
Speaker 1: of losing your job, fear of getting everyone else sick

418
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:59,520
Speaker 1: and then being blamed for it, all of these things.

419
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,720
Speaker 2: It's it's an awful, awful way.

420
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:05,639
Speaker 1: It's not persuasion, it's not an appeal.

421
00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:07,560
Speaker 2: It's really really.

422
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:10,199
Speaker 1: Disappointing to see this because it is the sign of

423
00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:15,879
Speaker 1: a small mind and or a dark mind, and that

424
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:20,000
Speaker 1: is noteworthy. So then what happened? First, Lieutenant Mark Besha

425
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:23,359
Speaker 1: what happened after you? I presume you left the military.

426
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:26,680
Speaker 1: You get a few years in between, tell me catch

427
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:27,040
Speaker 1: me up.

428
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:33,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, So I got unlawfully discharged in June twenty six,

429
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:38,760
Speaker 3: twenty twenty three. We moved from Maryland to Texas and

430
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 3: currently living in Texas working for a private company, paying

431
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:48,160
Speaker 3: the bills, making them meet my wife. My wife, actually

432
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:52,159
Speaker 3: she's still military. She survived the mandate, she stood up

433
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:55,280
Speaker 3: against the mandates as well, and so she got stationed

434
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:58,520
Speaker 3: at a totally different installation and kind of that's where

435
00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 3: we're located now. I've been pretty outspoken on you know,

436
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:07,320
Speaker 3: social media and things like that, but we're at the

437
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 3: process now of seeing what the Army is going to

438
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:13,479
Speaker 3: do with this whole reinstatement process of these service members

439
00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 3: who were unlawfully discharged. And so the Army had the

440
00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:22,840
Speaker 3: ball and has all the evidence of not only you know,

441
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 3: my individual situation, but many other situations, but also the

442
00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 3: evidence of service members who actually broke the law during

443
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,680
Speaker 3: this time period and public servants who broke the law

444
00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:37,080
Speaker 3: during this time period as well. So it's going to

445
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:41,320
Speaker 3: be interesting to see how that whole situation plays out.

446
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 3: Because as you may or may not be aware, or

447
00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:47,960
Speaker 3: your audience may not be aware. The President of the

448
00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 3: United States came out with an executive order, you know,

449
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:56,119
Speaker 3: ordering the military to reinstate the service members. And so

450
00:27:56,320 --> 00:28:00,240
Speaker 3: now the services have that direct lawful order from the

451
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:03,440
Speaker 3: commander in chief, and we're going to see how this

452
00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:04,040
Speaker 3: plays out.

453
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:09,600
Speaker 1: Okay, I was grasping for time frames and all that.

454
00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:13,000
Speaker 1: Does that mean that you have not been reinstated, but

455
00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:18,280
Speaker 1: you expect to and if you are reinstated, will you right?

456
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:21,160
Speaker 3: I have not been reinstated at this point in time.

457
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:24,920
Speaker 3: The Army has the pard in the warrant, The Army

458
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:30,600
Speaker 3: has all my evidence and reinstatement package, and if they

459
00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 3: make the determination, which lawfully speaking, they should, for me

460
00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:40,200
Speaker 3: to be a reinstated that I am open to uniform

461
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 3: service for our nation, just like I was doing for

462
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 3: the seventeen years prior. And so I am absolutely willing

463
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:53,040
Speaker 3: able and physically able because I just got fully medically

464
00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:58,160
Speaker 3: qualified for military service to serve our nation in uniform

465
00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:03,440
Speaker 3: once again. If that opportunity arises and the situation presents itself,

466
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:05,120
Speaker 3: I'm certainly open to it.

467
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:08,480
Speaker 1: Well, I think I know the answer already, but it

468
00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:12,280
Speaker 1: sounds to me like you love this country despite some

469
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:15,000
Speaker 1: people in it who might be in positions of authority

470
00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:19,960
Speaker 1: whose behavior are quite awful. And I think that's a

471
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:21,400
Speaker 1: pretty powerful love of country.

472
00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:26,080
Speaker 3: Absolutely, I do love our country. And the thing I

473
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:29,640
Speaker 3: love about our country the most is especially for public servants.

474
00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 3: Each of these public servants take an oath to defend

475
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:38,560
Speaker 3: the constitution. That's an individual oath, that's not a collective thing.

476
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:43,280
Speaker 3: And so all of these public servants have a responsibility

477
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:48,720
Speaker 3: to uphold their oath to the constitution individually carry themselves

478
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:52,360
Speaker 3: to ensure that they're not aiding in a betting foreign enemy.

479
00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:57,120
Speaker 3: And so what we had the past five years is

480
00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:02,480
Speaker 3: evident that there are some public servance within our local,

481
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:07,400
Speaker 3: state and central government that aren't willing to aid in

482
00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:10,520
Speaker 3: the bet foreign enemy. And then what we also have

483
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:14,480
Speaker 3: is that made the incredible patriot that have stood up

484
00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:18,440
Speaker 3: and carried out their oath of office and have maintained

485
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:22,080
Speaker 3: our form of government, which is a constitutional republic and

486
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:23,200
Speaker 3: not a democracy.

487
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:28,360
Speaker 1: One of them is First Lieutenant Mark C. Bashaw honor

488
00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:32,360
Speaker 1: to speak to you, sir, better things ahead. I appreciate you.

489
00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:40,840
Speaker 3: Likewise, Goblash
